On June 2, 1939, General Zhukov arrived at the People's Commissar of Defense in Moscow to report that he was appointed commander of the 57th Special Army by People's Commissar of Defense Voroshilov. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

A few days later, Zhukov arrived at the headquarters of the 57th Special Army in Ulaanbaatar, listened to the report of the military district committee, was very satisfied with the work that Manturov was doing so far, as well as the results he had won in the early stage, and was impressed by the military commissar in his twenties.

On June 8, Zhukov arrived in Tamchag Prague and took over the command of the troops. Soon Voroshilov gave an order to remove the commander of the Fekarenko Army Group from his post and succeed Zhukov, who had just arrived.

In addition to General Zhukov, Manturov came to Prague in Tamchag, 1 mechanized infantry division, 1 tank brigade, 1 armored brigade and a large number of artillery units from Manturov, who requested reinforcements from Moscow.

Among these reinforced air forces, 21 were pilots who had participated in the Spanish Civil War and were rich in combat experience, and some were equipped with the latest Soviet Union-developed and very advanced I-16 fighters, but nearly half of the fighters were still relatively backward biplane fighters -- the I-15.

In addition to fighters, more than two dozen Tupolev SB high-speed bombers were stationed at field airfields, increasing the ability of the Soviet army to strike enemy ground forces from the air.

The arrival of Zhukov and a large number of reinforcements greatly strengthened the fighting strength of the Soviet troops, and on the other side, the 64th Wing, which had suffered heavy casualties, received an order from the division headquarters to withdraw from the battle. Of the original infantry company of 2,000 men, less than 400 people returned.

With the retreat of the 64th Wing, the first phase of the Battle of Normenheim ended with a complete victory for the Soviets. The Soviets paid a very small price but inflicted a large number of enemy casualties. However, the aggressive ambitions of Japanese imperialism were not weakened by this defeat.

After that, the Japanese 23rd Division was replenished with a large number of heavy weapons, and the division commander Michitaro Komatsubara also lied to the Kwantung Army Headquarters and the Japanese General Staff Headquarters about the results of the battle, claiming a major victory and "pushing back the Soviet-Mongolian forces to the banks of the Haraha River."

The second phase of the campaign had already entered the preparatory stage, and while the Japanese were gathering forces to prepare for the next wave of attacks, the White Russian spies who worked for them also "penetrated into the Soviet army" and carried out intelligence work, although they never had the opportunity to pass on the information and would not have this opportunity.

After infiltrating the Soviet army for several days, Yusupov and several other White Russians have never found a chance to approach and rescue Keiko Nakajima, because they have no idea where Keiko Nakajima is being held. They did not have communication equipment, and they did not find any way to send the information.

In the evening, they secretly left the barracks and gathered in a flat and uninhabited place in the Mongolian steppe to discuss a plan to rescue Keiko Nakajima.

The grassland was too open and too flat, and the grass in any area did not grow tall and had no concealment effect, so anyone who approached them would be discovered by spies, so the soldiers in charge of monitoring them did not follow, but could only look from a distance, so that they could discuss their plans "freely".

"Anatoly Anatolyevich, we've been in the prisoner of war camp for a few days, why can't we find Miss Nakajima?" One of the White Russians said to Yusupov.

Yusupov glanced around and made sure that no one was there before he dared to speak: "Vasya (Vasily's nickname), just now I received an important piece of information from other Bolsheviks. ”

"What information?"

"Miss Nakajima was held in a special prisoner of war camp. It was a secluded location, far from the ordinary prisoner of war camp that we were guarded for. Before we could rescue her, we had to find out where the special POW camp was located and what was going on there. ”

"I've heard about that special prisoner of war camp too." Another White Russian said, "The location of it will only be known to the officers and the soldiers who guard it." The question is, how can we get the information we need from them? ”

Yusupov thought for a moment and said, "In this way, to know the location of the special prisoner of war camp, we must first know who the guards are guarding there." Find an opportunity to approach them and get the information they need. ”

"Approaching them? What if they refuse to name the location of the special prisoner of war camps? Drunk them with vodka? ”

"No, they don't have to speak. We'll be able to find the location of the special prisoner of war camp by sending someone to follow them. ”

"Yes, that's it. Find a chance to follow them, rescue Miss Nakajima, and kill a few red bandits by the way! ”

Looking at the tanks rumbling in the distance, heading in the direction of the barracks, Yusupov suddenly thought of another question. "By the way, now the Bolsheviks have come with so many reinforcements, and they have replaced a man named Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov as the commander of the special army. Shouldn't we inform the Japanese? ”

"yes, I think so too." "But how can we inform the Japanese?" Vasily said. It's a big headache. ”

Yusupov, who has always been "smart", suddenly thought of a solution: "We are going to steal a radio station." ”

"The Red Army's communications room is so heavily guarded, how can we sneak in and steal it?" Vasily asked, confused.

"Vasya, in addition to the communication room, there are actually many places where you can get a radio station. For example, radio stations can be found in newly built field airfields, trucks that have just arrived in the barracks to transport communications equipment, and even temporary warehouses. ”

Indeed, since Manturov, an engineer, began to serve as military commissar, he has promoted the work of improving communications in the troops, asked Moscow for a large amount of communications equipment, and also transferred a number of communications troops.

In addition to the communication room, there is a chance to find a radio station in the airfield, in the barracks, in the outpost, and even in the tank. With the arrival of reinforcements, the number of troops increased, and so did the supply of radio stations.

These stations were transported by truck from Bayantumen to Tamchag Prague, and then distributed to various command posts and observation posts on the front line. Some stations, before they even had time to be allocated, were stored in temporary warehouses waiting for the next step of allocation.

"That's right." Vasily suddenly came up with an idea, "We can go to the temporary warehouse and look around, we will definitely find what we are looking for." ”

"Why are you so sure?"

"When I was eating in the cafeteria, I met a Bolshevik named Semyon, who was in charge of guarding the warehouse. He said there were a lot of radio stations in there waiting to be allocated. ”

"Really? Is the message reliable? Yusupov was still a little suspicious, wondering if it was a trap left for them by the Soviet army.

"Really, the information is very reliable."

Yusupov wanted to get the radio, but he didn't want to reveal his identity, so he made this decision: "Vasya, you are responsible for getting the radio." I told him that we need a radio station in the prisoner of war camp, and if a prisoner of war escapes, we will use the radio to report the situation to the headquarters and ask for reinforcements. ”

"Yes! Comrade Yusupov. ”

Yusupov slapped Vasily hard and said: "Comrade? This is the name of the Red Bandits, the Bolsheviks, don't call me that! You are a Cossack, and your father is still a subordinate of General Denikin, which dooms you to always be their enemy, and you must not be **** by them, otherwise you will fall for them, understand? ”

"Got it, brother." Vasily touched his face, which had just been slapped, and said sadly.

"If I find any signs of **** again, I'll just crash you, understand?"

"Understood."
