Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After receiving the report from the vanguard, General Gregarif, the commander of the Soviet Union's Trans-Hinggan Mountains Front, immediately ordered the main force of the front to stop advancing to the Far East battlefield and stay put. Then, with a guard regiment, he rushed to the Far East battlefield.  , behind him was a huge supply convoy.  .

    The meeting between General Gregariff and General Zhukov was not as grand as imagined. As soon as the two met, they hugged each other tightly. Both were battle-hardened veterans and were good at controlling their emotions, but the two front armies  The staff officers still saw the tears flashing in the eyes of the two comrade commanders, especially General Zhukov, who suddenly felt like they were in another world.

    The supplies brought by General Gregariff were exactly what the Far Eastern Front army, which was short of medical treatment and almost exhausted of supplies, urgently needed. Zhukov was deeply moved by his old friend's carefulness and thoughtfulness, and the entire Far Eastern battlefield became a huge healing force.  In this land, more than 300,000 wounded people finally received treatment.

    In the Far Eastern battlefield, which was still filled with the faint smell of blood, in a tent at the Far Eastern Front headquarters, General Gregariff and General Zhukov had a long conversation. The content of the conversation was about the negotiation agreement between Moscow and Tang Qiuli.  Of course, although both men were generals in charge of heavy troops, the high command did not report the specific content of the negotiations to Tang Qiuli.

    There were only two of them in the tent. The guards and staff were all kicked out. Even their respective chiefs of staff had to avoid it. After a moment of silence, Zhukov spoke first and said: "Comrade Gregariff, a telegram from the headquarters.  Here, I just said that we had reached a negotiation agreement with Tang Qiuli. The negotiation was led by Comrade Molotov. Although I don¡¯t know the specific content of the agreement, I have a hunch that our Soviet Union will pay a heavy price for this agreement.  of!"

    General Gregariff sighed, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, and said: "Comrade Zhukov, during the battle to break through the Japanese blocking line, I received a report from the chief of staff commanding the rearguard troops, saying that the reading force troops were withdrawing across the board.  We were out of contact with our troops. At first, I absolutely couldn't believe it. However, the telegram from the headquarters later confirmed this, and I dared to use all my troops in the attack to break through the Japanese blocking positions, otherwise  !" He shook his head and said no more.

    Zhukov understood what he meant and said: "If Moscow can exchange for Tang Qiuli's troops and does not threaten our return troops in battle, Moscow will not move the Chinese unless it offers enough bargaining chips. The situation at that time, Tang Qiuli  Li's troops occupy an absolutely favorable battlefield situation, allowing him to let go!" Zhukov also shook his head and did not say anything further. Some words cannot be put on the table.

    General Gregariff said: "Comrade Zhukov, after seeing the telegram from the headquarters, I guessed this. I think Comrade Stalin is also in trouble, otherwise Comrade Molotov would not be photographed. Come here  Cullen, it is reasonable to take the initiative to seek peace from the Chinese and pay the price! "

    "No, Comrade Gregariff, our Soviet Union does not have to pay such a heavy price. At the beginning, the Politburo meeting decided to dispatch elite troops from Europe to the East to fight against Japan and Tang Qiuli. I did not agree. I have always  I believe that the strategic defense focus of the Soviet Union is in the direction of Europe. This stupid decision of the Politburo has led to today¡¯s unfavorable situation!¡±

    "As a result, our country's key strategic defense areas in Europe were empty of troops. Facing the German offensive, they were completely defeated and routed. Important strategic cities fell one after another. The German mechanized corps was in an uninhabited country. The capital, Moscow, was in a dangerous situation.  Surrounded by the German army, on the Eastern battlefield, more than six million troops were mobilized, more than one million soldiers were sacrificed, and a huge amount of supplies were spent on the Eastern battlefield. What did we get? "

    "The Far East includes the Outer Mongolia region. Our four most elite front army units were trapped here. That unit did not suffer any losses, and the Far East Front Army suffered more than half of its casualties. We fought hard with the Japanese army, but we succeeded to the Chinese Tang Qiu.  If you want to leave, you have to pay an unknown price to beg for peace from the Chinese!"

    "This is a decision-making error in the strategic direction. It is a mistake that cannot be shied away from or forgiven. Someone should be responsible for it. After the troops withdraw, I will send a telegram to the Politburo as an alternate member of the Politburo to state my opinions.  ! Hold the decision-makers accountable!" Zhukov suddenly became excited and said loudly.

    General Gregariff looked at Zhukov, whose face turned red with anger, and sighed silently. He understood the mood of his old friend. Of the four front armies fighting in the east, only the Far East Front suffered the greatest losses.  We won¡¯t give up, but is it possible to hold decision-makers accountable?

    General Gregariff knew as much as Zhukov about the political structure of the CPSU.?Although nominally, the use of troops in the Far East and Outer Mongolia is a collective decision of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the actual decision-maker is Comrade Stalin, the Supreme Leader of the Soviet Union. He disagrees. The Politburo cannot decide anything, old friend.  If we want to hold the decision-makers accountable, wouldn't we point the finger directly at Comrade Stalin, and would Comrade Stalin make mistakes?

    "Old friend, listen to me, let's let this matter go. Our next main task is to return to the European battlefield as quickly as possible to fight the German army. You are an alternate member of the Politburo. Don't you understand?  What's the inside story? Don't get into trouble. I'm a member of the Central Committee and I know a lot about it. It's better not to cause trouble in extraordinary times!" General Gregariff sincerely advised.

    Zhukov's face turned gray in an instant, like a deflated rubber ball, and his tall body stooped. Although the words of his old friend were unpleasant, they were the absolute truth. The decision of the Politburo was Comrade Stalin's decision. This  It is an indisputable fact. I want to hold those responsible accountable. Is it possible that Comrade Stalin¡¯s mistakes should be made public to the whole party? Not only is it impossible to do it, but I am afraid that my telegram has reached Moscow, and with it, senior agents of the Cheka  .

    The two senior generals who knew the inside story of the Politburo were silent. A depressing atmosphere flowed in the tent. After a long time, Zhukov broke the silence with a long sigh, "Old friend, I am not willing to accept it. The war situation in the Far East is not originally going to be good."  This should be the current situation. I am afraid that after leaving this time, we will never have the chance to return to this land that once belonged to the Soviet Union. The future owner of this land is the Chinese Tang Qiuli! A wrong decision!  , leading to catastrophic consequences!¡±

    Zhukov's tone was sentimental and lonely, and he would reveal his true feelings only in front of old friends. If the person sitting opposite him was General Kilganin, the commander of the Baikal Front, even if he was in extreme pain and loss, he would  He won¡¯t show any dissatisfaction!

    "Old friend, are you saying that after we evacuate, Tang Qiuli's troops will compete with the Japanese for control of the Far East? Will the war in the Far East continue to burn?" General Gregariff is undoubtedly wise, and immediately  This conclusion can be inferred from Zhukov's words.

    Zhukov nodded and said: "You can be sure that the Chinese have now begun to deploy military operations against the Japanese army in the Far East. The Japanese army in the Far East is now a tired army and has attracted our attention again.  , Tang Qiuli will never let this opportunity go - no!"

    "This Chinese is a poisonous snake hiding in the dark. He can always seize every opportunity. Even if there is no chance, he can create an opportunity. When the opportunity arises, he will not hesitate to pounce on it and ruthlessly pour out the venom.  Inject it into the enemy's body, and then coldly watch the opponent struggle on the line of death. There is no trace of pity or sympathy in his eyes. In the several Outer Mongolia wars with our Soviet army, his  This characteristic has been fully demonstrated! ¡±

    "This time, Tang Qiuli's target is the Japanese. I don't know if it's a pity or a blessing that we are not his target. Without the stupid decision of the Politburo, I, Zhukov, would not have given Tang Qiuli a favor in the Far East.  Such a chance! - Never! I will be the poisonous snake hiding in the corner!" Zhukov gritted his teeth, and his emotions were quite complicated for such a terrifying opponent like Tang Qiuli.

    General Gregariff also sighed heavily and said: "However, all this has nothing to do with us. Old friends, stop entangled in the Far East. What awaits us on the European battlefield will be a more brutal battle than here.  ! I¡¯m looking forward to the days of fighting German fascism with you!¡±

    General Gregariff's words brought an end to the secret talks between the two senior Soviet commanders. Yes, the Far East was turbulent again, with dragons and tigers fighting, artillery fire flying, and gunpowder smoke filling the air. The Japanese and Tang Qiu  After being beaten to a bloody pulp, all this has nothing to do with the Soviets.

    "Comrade Gregariff, let's go meet the other generals together. Don't keep everyone waiting too long! My subordinates really want to meet the legendary Comrade Commander of the Outer Xing'an Mountains Front!" Zhukov also took the initiative.  The conversation was interrupted.

    In fact, there is no way to proceed. If we continue to talk, it will become more and more resentful. Comrade Stalin is a solid and thick wall that cannot be bypassed. Anyone who dares to hit the wall, whether you are a veteran of the party or a member of the military,  Veterans will suffer severe injuries and even lose their wealth and life.

    Zhukov knew this deeply, so he changed the topic. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Many unspeakable emotions that could only be understood were contained in this smile. Then, they walked out of the tent side by side. Outside, there was the clear sky in the early spring of the Far East.  The afternoon sun is so bright that it dazzles your eyes!
