Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the past few days since October 5, 1941, Stalin, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, had been living a very depressed life. It could be said that he was a little exhausted.

    Originally, Stalin thought that Tang Qiuli had gained the upper hand in the Second Outer Mongolia War and killed more than 500,000 of his troops. He captured a large number of generals and lieutenant generals alone. This was the most difficult Chinese to deal with.  , we should just give it up and wave it away. Aren¡¯t the Chinese people particular about moderation?

    Unexpectedly, for many days in a row, the reports received from various places were all bad news that constantly hit me. "On October 9th, the western military town of Minusinsk fell and was occupied by the independent division troops. On October 12th, Iraq  Irkutsk, Ulan-Ude, and Barnur were lost, and the independent division army swept across the area and controlled the area around Lake Baikal. All military strongholds in the Transcaucasus Military District in this area were uprooted. "

    In a sense, the Transcaucasus Military District has been completely wiped out. Not only are there no more than 300,000 troops left, but even the old nest has been wiped out. The designation can be cancelled. Stalin has not yet received Tang Qiuli's continuous heavy blows.  After the blow, he woke up and received a report from the General Staff Headquarters: "On October 15, the independent division directed Liu Tiehan's command to the east and reached Chita, Nerchinsk (that is, Nerchinsk), Slovakia  In places such as Letensk, the Soviet strategic layout in the eastern part of the Outer Mongolia border was smashed to pieces. "

    "On October 18, the main force of the East Command of the Independent Division was more than 200,000 people. They were stationed on the Nerchinsk front line. They seemed to have the intention of attacking our Far East Front."

    Stalin watched these telegrams helplessly, powerlessly and even with some fear. Tang Qiuli's troops rushed out of Outer Mongolia like crazy, attacked in three directions, and occupied the territory.  But they are all Soviet territory!

    If you look at the battlefield situation from a military map, the attacks by the independent division troops are distributed in a fan shape, starting from Minusinsk in the west and ending around Chita in the east, with Lake Baikal as the center, drawing a complete arc.  The Soviet local garrison troops and various military key points were all uprooted without exception.

    And what worried Stalin the most.  There are more than 200,000 independent divisions that have entered the front line of Nerchinsk. The Soviet Union is in the east, and there is only Zhukov's Far East Front military group. If Tang Qiuli's troops really have the intention to attack them.  The cunning but powerful Japanese Kwantung Army will not let go of such a good opportunity.  I will definitely take advantage of it.  Under attack from two sides, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Far East Front.

    Thinking of this, Stalin couldn't help but get angry at Tang Qiuli's greed and coercion, but he forgot about it.  The two wars in Outer Mongolia were initiated by himself. If at this time, Tang Qiuli defeated Outer Mongolia.  After being driven back to the mainland, Stalin would not think about pushing too hard or pushing too far. Instead, he would laugh at the Chinese people's incompetence and China's poverty and weakness. Next, the separatist forces in Outer Mongolia supported by the Soviet Union would have the possibility of entering Inner Mongolia.  It¡¯s all there. It¡¯s no surprise that the logic of power has never been like this in history.

    Therefore, what Stalin is most worried about at the moment is that Zhukov's Far East Front Army will be completely annihilated by Tang Qiuli and the Japanese Kwantung Army. The Soviet Union has lost its last military group in the East. If this is the case, the Soviet Union east of the Ural Mountains,  Part of the territory in Asia will be divided between Tang Qiuli and the Japanese. Thinking about it, Stalin shudders. According to his logic, this situation will definitely occur.

    Precisely at this time, Zhukov¡¯s telegram on the military situation in the Far East was delivered to his desk by Marshal Petroshilov, Chief of the General Staff.

    After reading Zhukov's telegram, Stalin turned livid with anger. He slammed the table angrily and roared: "Confused, a warrior. Zhukov doesn't understand politics. What he saw was only military issues, but he didn't take into account the interests."  There is no permanent enemy in front of us! That is more than one million square kilometers of rich and vast land, who wouldn¡¯t be jealous?¡±

    This is indeed the case. In Stalin's eyes, there are only eternal interests and no permanent friends. When Hitler's German troops entered Poland, Stalin hurriedly ordered the Soviet troops to cross the Soviet-Polish border, taking advantage of the fact that Poland was about to be destroyed by the Germans.  Opportunity, cut off a piece of flesh from the already dying Poland. When the Soviet army and the German army met in Poland, the scene was quite lively!

    Therefore, facing the Asian part of the Soviet Union and seizing more than one million square kilometers of land from China, Stalin absolutely believed that Tang Qiuli could temporarily form an alliance with the feuding Japanese, kill Zhukov's Far East Army, and carve up the territory acquired by the Soviet Union. He was accustomed to plotting  Stalin, who seized territory from other countries, was neurotically sensitive to this.

    After losing his temper, Stalin sat weakly on his chair with his eyes straight. There was currently no effective way to solve the imminent crisis, but one thing was clear to Stalin. The Far East must not fall to Tang Qiuli or  ?In my own hands, even, even if the Soviet Union does not hesitate to fight a national war for this!

    After a long time, Stalin said to Marshal Petroshilov with cold eyes: "Comrade Petroshilov, call Zhukov back immediately and tell that simple-minded guy not to have any illusions about the Chinese or the Japanese.  , be prepared for battle. As long as he persists for four to six months under the joint attack of the Chinese and Japanese, we will have a way to turn the tide of the war! "

    In response to the situation in the Far East, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union held an emergency meeting in Moscow on October 20. At the meeting, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union made an important decision that would affect the outcome of the subsequent Soviet-German war.  , "In view of the European battlefield, the struggle between Germany and the British and American forces on the British Isles has reached a stalemate. In a short time, it is not possible to see the end of the war. At least, before July and August 1942, the war will not end.  will end."

    "To this end, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union decided to mobilize more than 4 million troops from the European direction, as well as a large number of armored and  The air force is used to strengthen military control over the eastern region. All the mobilized troops must arrive at the designated position before March 1942. The targets of the operation are Tang Qiuli's independent division troops and the Japanese Kwantung Army.  force."

    Stalin gritted his teeth and became ruthless. He must wipe out all the Chinese and Japanese who covet Soviet territory in the East and solve the problem once and for all. It is not impossible to even invade Japan and Northeast China. As for Outer Mongolia,  Needless to say, for this reason, Stalin did not hesitate to use his supreme authority to overcome all opinions, or in other words, he went his own way and passed this almost crazy resolution.

    With an order from the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union's huge military machine began to operate intensively. This was a fundamental change in the strategic direction of the Soviet Union, and even affected the final pattern of the future Soviet-German war.

    Tang Qiuli did not expect, nor did he expect that the limited military operations he carried out, just like poking a hornet's nest, would trigger such a cunning reaction from Stalin, who would not hesitate to change the strategic direction and deploy more than 4 million elite army troops.  and a large number of aviation troops to deal with themselves and the Japanese Kwantung Army.

    Such a situation is definitely not what Tang Qiuli wants to see. As long as the Germans do not take action against the Soviets, he will not have an all-out war with the Soviets. The current strength of the independent division is not enough to confront the Soviet Union's national military power.  What's more, the real mortal enemy is the Japanese, which does not fit in with his strategic vision of deterring the Soviet Union in the north and occupying Japan in the east.

    However, because the tentacles of the independent division's intelligence system have not yet reached too deep into the Soviet Union, they are still unaware of Stalin's gamble-like decision, let alone that more than four million elite Soviet troops have already  Start gathering.

    Then there are the Japanese. If they knew that more than four million Soviet troops were recruited because Tang Qiuli hurt Stalin, they would definitely hate Tang Qiuli to the core, and would feel aggrieved and depressed to death.  Isn't it a disaster for fish in a pond?  The Kwantung Army has more than one million troops, but it is not enough to feed the more than four million Soviet troops!  There was also Tang Qiuli, who had ulterior motives. He suppressed the remaining troops of the Kwantung Army in western Liaoning, and the more than 200,000 elite troops in the east were unable to raise their heads.

    Seeing that the three armies were progressing smoothly and achieving the planned campaign objectives, Tang Qiuli issued an order on October 21 that the troops should stay at their current positions and focus on establishing local political power and controlling the occupied areas.  After all, at this stage, Tang Qiuli did not want to provoke Stalin too much and draw the Soviet Union's attention to himself. He knew that even so, Stalin began to lose his temper.

    On October 22, Major General Battelle, commander of the independent division¡¯s armored forces, commanded two tank brigades and began to withdraw into the country. However, according to the order of the division commander Tang Qiuli, they did not return to Indochina, but stayed in the Pingjin area.

    On October 23, Major General Le Yiqin, commander of the Southern Flying Group of the Independent Division Aviation Command, commanded his fighter and bomber units to return to Indochina. Similarly, according to the order of division commander Tang Qiuli, the Southern Flying Group had six fighter groups.  , three bomber regiments, stayed in the Pingjin area.

    No one knows what the purpose of the division commander¡¯s deployment is?

    On October 24, Deputy Division Commander Liu Tiehan took a special plane from Chita to Kulun and met with Tang Qiuli. The two closed the door and told Shan Hu that no one was allowed to disturb them. They had a sumptuous table of wine and food and had a confidential conversation.  It lasted a long time, during which time I asked for wine several times.

    When Liu Tiehan came out, his face was red, he was in high spirits, and he walked with wind. The staff of the division headquarters looked at it and agreed that Deputy Division Commander Liu was not acting like this because he was drinking with the division commander. He must have something bigger to do.  That¡¯s why I¡¯m so excited!
