Chapter Seventy-Seven: Farewell to East Germany

After reaching a larger cooperation agreement between China and East Germany, Li Feng's trip to Europe has come to an end, and he will visit Czechoslovakia and Hungary on the way. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Except for a few people who stayed in East Germany to help East Germany train tactical aircraft guards and drone operators, the rest of the people took a train to the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic.

After all, East Germany was not the only front-line state in Europe, in fact, Czechoslovakia, with a population about the same size as East Germany, was second only to East Germany!

At the train station bound for Czechoslovakia, the people of the 666 Squadron collectively saw off the Chinese Fengchao troops who had been with each other for several months.

"Colonel Li, I look forward to seeing you again in the future!" Alicetina Bernhard smiled and shook hands with Li Feng.

"Yes!" Li Feng smiled and said, "Because, more cooperation between our two countries has just begun, and there will be more opportunities to meet in the future." ”

"Goodbye then!" Members of the 666th Squadron, led by Alicetina Bernhard, saw them off at the train station. looked at Li Feng and his party and got on the train.

In fact, China's Fengchao troops gave her a very different feeling - this team was full of hope and vigor that East Germany did not have!

There is no hope for the GDR to develop in its current way...... Even if West Germany is united, there may not be a future and hope.

Therefore, Alicetina Bernhard couldn't help but look deeply at the figure of Li Feng and his entourage -- could it be that the hope and way out of East Germany was in China?

……

Strictly speaking, after the beta was bulldozed to Europe, although the Warsaw Pact countries suffered the most. But to be honest, Poland is the only Warsaw Pact country that really ceases to exist at home. The rest of the bulldozed Belarus, Ukraine, etc., were all Soviet republics and were part of the Soviet Union.

In addition, although the Soviet Union moved most of the population to the Leased Alaska State, there were still large territories in Siberia and other places in Asia. So, the Soviet Union only lost a lot of land, but it did not lose the country.

After Poland was flattened, East Germany and Czechoslovakia blocked Beta from continuing to bulldoze. Even if the two countries are reluctant, they are forced to become the frontline countries.

In addition, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and other Warsaw Pact countries also need to bear some beta pressure on their borders.

Of course, East Germany was the first to bear the brunt, followed by Czechoslovakia, and the rest of the country was relatively less affected because of its relatively short borders exposed to beta troops.

At this time, East Germany and Czechoslovakia were not only the mainstay of the Warsaw Pact countries in Europe, but also the shield to protect European civilization. If either of these two countries is breached, Beta will drive straight in and attack the Western European countries that are hiding behind the two countries.

As a result, East Germany and Czechoslovakia now receive a large amount of aid from Western European countries every year.

The Czech Republic currently receives $7 billion a year in international aid, which has reduced its military burden, but it is still very difficult to defend its homeland.

However, if such a small amount of assistance can block the beta, then ...... Beta will not be overwhelmed and push out a bunch of Eurasian countries.

Even, even the Soviet Union could not bear it, and the main forces withdrew to Alaska to protect themselves, and they could no longer cover the little brothers in Europe.

These small countries need more than just economic assistance, but more direct military assistance.

And the joint **** airframe operation, which was more focused on East Germany and Czechoslovakia, after all, both were of greater significance to the barrier of Western European countries.

Therefore, requesting military powers to send troops directly to aid has become a lifeline for some small European countries. Best, the country that came to aid was also from the socialist camp -- Hungary was the first to ask socialist China for military aid. Therefore, the Chinese volunteers sent 40,000 volunteers into Hungary in 78.

Subsequently, at the request of Czechoslovakia, China began to send volunteers to Czechoslovakia.

Relatively speaking, the East German troops were relatively combat-ready and were able to keep Beta out of the border. Czechoslovakia, in '79, was almost attacked by a flood of Beta from Poland to break the capital Prague.

Immediately, with the help of the Warsaw Pact army and the Chinese volunteers, Czechoslovakia barely wiped out the invading beta, but the population was lost by 3 million!

After suffering a heavy loss, Czechoslovak President Gustav Husak officially invited the Chinese Volunteers to garrison the Czech Republic to assist in the defense.

Subsequently, China increased its military strength at the request of Czechoslovsk and Hungary.

The Czech and Hungarian governments will bear the military expenses of the Chinese troops stationed in Europe, and pay the military salaries of the Chinese volunteers according to the current European standards.

Since then, China has continued to increase its troops at the request of both countries, and at its peak the number of Chinese troops in Europe exceeded 500,000.

Even at present, China has more than 200,000 troops stationed in Europe, and the annual military salary is paid to the foreign exchange account opened in China. In addition, a renminbi account will be opened to convert the foreign exchange military salaries of the troops stationed in Europe into equal renminbi military salaries and distribute them to their accounts.

At present, most of the domestic savings accounts of volunteer soldiers are entrusted to their families. Because the families of volunteer soldiers can receive an income of 2~30,000 yuan per year. This income, in terms of domestic terms, is purely a windfall. So...... There are also some fighters whose families are poor, and they keep making reports and asking to join the volunteer troops in Europe. Although the danger is extremely high, it is ...... The income is also very amazing, and in the 80s, 10,000 yuan households were already considered rich.

Then, after a year of war in Europe, the family can get tens of thousands of yuan in income. If you die...... There is also a bereavement pension for the dead, which is converted into RMB 200,000 yuan.

In general, most of the volunteer soldiers went to fight in Europe, and there is no noble reason to talk about it. When asked the ordinary officers and men of the Chinese Volunteers stationed in Hungary and Czechoslovakia why they risked their lives on the more dangerous battlefields of Europe, the more cunning answer was to support the fraternal socialist countries, or to protect all mankind and other slogans.

Let's be honest - the salaries of the European army are much higher than those at home!

Czechoslovakia, with a population of about 11 million people, was a little larger than the GDR, but it was very long, and the border was at least twice as long as the GDR, so the pressure on the GDR was greater. In addition, the quality of the Czech native army was not as good as that of the East German army, so half of the tasks of its defensive operations were entrusted to the troops invited by various countries to settle in the Czech Republic.

At present, the Czech front includes home and guest armies, with a total strength of 800,000 troops.

In addition, there are 400 old J-8 tactical aircraft. In addition, there are more than 300 MiG-21s, as well as more than 100 F-4 and F-5!

The number of tactical aircraft in the Czech Republic as a whole is almost twice that of East Germany, which is not because the Czech Republic is more powerful than East Germany. The main reason is that the Czech tactical aircraft units are more foreign troops.

Including the support forces of China, the Soviet Union, and European countries, it is impossible for these foreign armies to engage in light-level shouting. Therefore, the tactical aircraft on the Czech battlefield are basically based on the consumption of beta numbers, and after the bullets are fired, the tactical aircraft units will retreat. Therefore, the losses of Czech tactical aircraft were far less staggering than those of the GDR.

……

In April 1982, with the arrival of Li Feng and his entourage in Prague, the capital of Czechoslovakia, Czech President and General Secretary Gustav Husak personally greeted him at the railway station.

In addition, Lieutenant General Zhang Zhaozhong, commander-in-chief of the Chinese Volunteer Army in Czechoslovakia, also appeared in the greeting procession.

Lieutenant General Zhang was born in 52 and is only 30 years old this year, and he can be promoted to the position of lieutenant general because war creates heroes.

Because, Lieutenant General Zhang began to participate in the war against the beta in 73, and he was only a squad leader at the beginning. After many years of bloody battles, relying on his military exploits, he once became a general, and General Zhang was very interested in technology and had the courage to learn all kinds of new weapons and new concepts.

Especially during the period in Europe, several new tactics were created.

For example, the intensive use of landmines has led to an unprecedented density of mines planted on the border between the Czech Republic and Poland (mainly to the fuss of the world's Europeans), with nearly 30 million mines planted along the border. This simple tactic greatly reduced the losses of Czech troops.

In addition, it is to tow artillery and tanks to guard the border line, and after seeing the beta, they will fight and retreat tactically. Consume all ammo all the time, and never come into contact with the beta. This tactic is not new, China has used this tactic to fight beta for many years, but the Europeans are not as experienced as the Chinese, and they rely heavily on black technology, so conventional weapons are not used well. So much so that the experience of common sense on the battlefield in China was taken to Europe, which actually caused Europeans to be surprised.

There is also the tactic of running after the tactical machine hits. Not long ago, Li Feng recommended this tactic to the 666 Squadron of the GDR.

Lieutenant General Zhang once said that if billions of mines are planted in the territory of Poland and other fallen countries, it will be very difficult for Beta to rush to this side of the border!

However, this was not recognized by the Polish regime in exile.

Although the whole territory of Poland has fallen, and it is impossible for mankind to survive in Poland, the Polish government still has illusions, so it is not allowed to turn the whole of Poland into a minefield that blocks the westward advance of the beta!

That's a pity......

If the Poles can be a little more generous, then there is hope for a longer respite for the Europeans...... (To be continued.) )
