Chapter 256: Vladivostok Scramble

On June 18, Zhukov was appointed commander of the 57th Special Army by the Soviet High Command. When he arrived in Yakutsk's Neryukengr, he found that all the land in the Trans-Khingan Mountains had been lost.

After the Japanese seized the coal mines, oil, natural gas and various mineral deposits here, they spared no effort to reinforce the troops. In just one month, millions of heroes have gathered here.

Zhukov hurriedly reported the situation to Stalin, who needed at least two million troops, as well as a large number of air forces, tanks, and artillery fire. When Stalin heard that these people were armed with jet planes and rocket artillery, he couldn't help but curse loudly: "Hu Sanshao, you are the one who messed up the world!" ”

Having occupied favorable terrain and resources, the Japanese began to arrange defenses. In order to prevent Russian bombardment by aircraft, they deployed seven flying regiments and five anti-aircraft artillery units in the front line.

Hu Zhiyong smiled, the Battle of Normenkhamp did not appear in history, but now the Battle of Vladivostok broke out. According to the deployment of the Japanese army and the preparation of weapons, he believed that Zhukov was going to hit a nail here!

"Report, the Russians are demanding the purchase of our fighters, bombers!" The chief of the communications section sent a telegram from Yinlong, and he handed the telegram to Hu Zhiyong.

"Sanshao, who is more powerful in your plane or anti-aircraft artillery?" Xie Jinyuan smiled, the story of the spear and the shield all happened to Hu Zhiyong.

"No one is amazing!" Hu Zhiyong laughed wildly and said to the chief of the communications section: "Say to the Russians, we only need gold!" ”

"Yes!"

After the communications section chief left, Hu Zhiyong explained to Xie Jinyuan: "Anti-aircraft guns can hit planes, and planes can also bomb artillery positions. But the Japanese took the initiative, and his artillery was hidden in the high mountains of the Outer Khingan Mountains. ”

"What would you do if you were asked to attack?" Xie Jinyuan seemed to be interested in Hu Zhiyong, and asked slyly.

"You can only use special operations to clear the forward Japanese airfields, artillery positions, and then use aircraft and tank units to assault! Of course, this battle is going to be fought by me, I will use missiles and paratrooper units, and it will be difficult for him to prevent me! ”

Hu Zhiyong did not hesitate to explain his method of dealing with the Japanese army.

On June 21, the Soviet army dispatched 150 planes to attack the Japanese assembly area and field airfields, and the Japanese planes also flew out. From the 22nd ~ 24th, the two sides fought for 3 days in the sky over the Normenhan area, and nearly 60 planes were shot down on the grassland.

Having won the air battle, the Japanese army became even more arrogant. They frequently dispatched bombers and poured a large number of shells on Zhukov's positions. The Soviets had no choice but to retreat and wait for the arrival of new planes on another position.

After the Japanese army got that the Soviet army also had jet planes, they took the risk of sending infantry death squads to use hand-held bazookas to turn the Soviet airfield into a sea of fire at once.

With successive defeats at the front, Stalin had to continue to increase the Air Force. The 200 fighter planes that had just been purchased from Hong Kong were also quickly put into use on the battlefield. The Japanese saw the same planes as themselves, and cunningly used anti-aircraft guns to deal with them. The sky and ground suddenly rumbled with cannons, and the firelight filled all the passes in the outer Xing'an Mountains.

"It was reported that 99 Soviet planes were shot down and 25 ground planes were destroyed. "Another victory, so that the Japanese army began to cheer up.

"Ground raid, drive Zhukov to the back again!" The Japanese army wanted to test Hu Zhiyong's tanks, and began to order infantry and tank units to attack.

The 23rd Division launched a ground offensive. The total number of troops is 36,000, 182 tanks, 112 artillery pieces of various kinds, 180 aircraft and 400 vehicles. In the murderous attack, Zhukov had to send his own 150 tanks, 154 armored vehicles, 90 artillery pieces and the remaining aircraft to meet it.

The Japanese tanks and air forces had the upper hand, and Zhukov had to retreat again. His armored corps and air force were all annihilated by the little devils, and the artillery losses were not small. On July 13, Captain Shaozo of the Ishii Bacteriological Unit led 22 daredevils to sneak into the rear and residence of the Soviet army, and sprinkled 22.5 kilograms of typhoid, cholera, plague, melioidosis and other bacteria into the water in all water sources to carry out bacteriological warfare against the Soviet and Mongolian troops.

Zhukov has withdrawn again, and most of the million-strong troops have lost their combat effectiveness. Stalin hurriedly turned to Hu Zhiyong for help and bought a large amount of medicine from Chen Wanxin. However, due to the sluggish defense, many soldiers have fallen to the forward positions.

The fighting finally stopped, and no one dared to venture into the epidemic area. After several successive defeats, Zhukov began to expand his army, and the 57th Special Army was expanded into the 1st Army. A large corps of various compounds with independent combat functions that are temporarily organized. On July 15, Zhukov was appointed commander of the army group.

The Japanese army was victorious and retreated cautiously. They retreated to their original positions, protecting all the targets in the Outer Khing'an Mountains and frantically exploiting the mineral resources there. Stalin sent an envoy at this time, hoping to borrow the terrain from the northeast for the Japanese to strike from behind.

"No way!" Chen Wanxin said unceremoniously: "We are neutrals and will not be involved in the Russo-Japanese War!" The Outer Khing'an Mountains turned out to be ours, aren't you here to humiliate us? ”

The envoy was stunned in embarrassment. But he still made compromises, hoping to get the help of this powerful force: "You don't need to be here, we want to use Heilongjiang to carry out a sneak attack on the Japanese army." ”

"Once a war breaks out in Heilongjiang, we will be the first to suffer!" Chen Wanxin shook his head: "Any warship dares to sail from here, we will not hesitate to open fire!" ”

"Chinese people will repay their flaws, they are holding grudges!" Stalin had no choice but to negotiate the purchase of weapons.

The USSR spent a lot of money and bought three more divisions of aircraft and two more divisions of tanks at once. Seeing off these people, the ambassador of the Japanese army came belatedly. They got the sweetness from the war, and they even started arms purchases again without any scruples.

"Heh, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but you have made a fortune!" After selling seven divisions of planes, six divisions of tanks, as well as a large amount of medicines, gas masks, food, etc., Xie Jinyuan had to admire Hu Zhiyong.

"I want so much more than that!" Hu Zhiyong slammed his fist on the table and said coldly: "Once Germany attacks Poland, Stalin will be terrified. He is afraid that Japan and Germany will attack left and right, and maybe he will return the Outer Xing'an Mountains to us as a favor! ”

"Use your troops to go to war with the Japanese?" Xie Jinyuan quickly figured it out.

"Two military powers did something to the Soviet Union, can he have no scruples?" Hu Zhiyong smiled, he was waiting for this moment.

In the early morning of August 20, the Soviet-Mongolian army launched a general offensive campaign. At 5:45 a.m., the Soviet-Mongolian army began shelling Japanese positions, and 150 bombers and 100 fighters bombed and strafed the Japanese troops. The Japanese army's forward position, which stretched for 40 kilometers, was shrouded in thick smoke and fire, and the Japanese army's observation posts, communication links, and artillery positions were all destroyed.

After the Japanese suffered a blow, they quickly returned fire with anti-aircraft guns in concealed positions. Immediately after that, the rocket forces began to strike at the army and tank units dispatched from the three fronts of the south, north and center.

The Japanese 6th Army occupied the favorable terrain, and the two armies fought for three days before stopping again. In mid-August 1939, the situation in Europe changed dramatically. The Soviet Union and Japan also stepped up diplomatic talks after the end of August.

"Will the Soviet Union sell the Trans-Khingan Mountains to the island nation?" Seeing the change in the situation on the front line, Xie Jinyuan became worried.

"It's hard to say!" Hu Zhiyong thought calmly: "Perhaps, this is an opportunity for us!" ”

Liu Xingdou laughed: "Yes, if the Soviets in Waixinganling dare to betray the Japanese army, we will snatch it from the islanders!" ”

Hu Zhiyong nodded and said: "This is the birthplace of the Qing Dynasty, and in the end it was occupied by the Russians. Now we take it back, and we will never hand it over to these losers again! ”

"You're going to build a country here?" Xie Jinyuan was shocked, he was frightened by Hu Zhiyong's ambitions.

"Hehe, I'll build a special zone head office, right?" Hu Zhiyong said humorously.

"Special Zone?" Xie Jinyuan and Liu Xingdou asked at the same time.

"Yes!" Hu Zhiyong nodded and explained: "The land belongs to the Chinese nation, but this is an autonomous government. With its own army and officials, a large number of immigrants from the mainland can be engaged in construction. ”

"You've got a lot of new ideas!" Xie Jinyuan thought: "This is the same as a warlord. ”

Negotiations between the island nation and the Soviet Union were inconclusive, and Stalin was even more worried. He already knew that the island nation and Germany had joined, and he suspected that it was the Germans behind the scenes who wanted to invade the Russian lands.

If the Outer Khingan Mountains cannot be recovered, the Soviet Union will face a situation of being attacked from both sides. He thought of Hu Zhiyong, and perhaps only from him could he get a way. Stalin had no choice but to send Bogmolov and Zhukov to meet the three young men of the Hu family.

The two envoys arrived in Phoenix, and they were amazed at what had happened here. Industrial cities, scientific and technological powers, they silently chanted in their hearts. Hu Zhiyong greeted them at the airport and said happily: "I only have a few thousand square kilometers here, and I have the most wealth in the world!" ”

Judging by the dress and consumption of ordinary people, Zhukov believed that the people here were the richest. He thought of the Soviet ground, and he didn't know of a place that could compare to it.

"Solve it with me?" Hu Zhiyong smiled: "You are willing to return to me all the original Chinese land in the Outer Xing'an Mountains, and I will clean up the Japanese army for you!" Of course, with us guarding the east for you, the Soviet Union will not be watched by the two fascist countries of the east and the west! ”

"This—I'm afraid the commander won't agree!" Bogmolov said embarrassedly.

"What are you here for?" Hu Zhiyong was surprised, since they did not agree to return the territory, what did they come for?

"I hope you will attack Xianguo and contain the Japanese army!" Zhukov did not beat around the bush and directly explained his intentions.

"Hahahaha!" Hu Zhiyong sneezed and laughed, and it took a long time to straighten up and say, "Attack Xianguo? If I start to move troops, maybe the Japanese army will leave where to occupy the Far East with all their might! ”

"yes!" Zhukov sighed: "With the attack speed of your troops, the 200,000 Japanese troops of Xianguo are not your opponent at all!" ”

"Unfortunately, I won't attack there at the moment, because there are still Japanese troops on my soil!" Hu Zhiyong decisively refused, and told them: "You can visit here, if you want to cooperate with me, you can only return all the territory of Huaxia!" ”
