Chapter 493: Recovering Outer Mongolia

The entry of the Eighth Route Army into the city caused a shock among the local people. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Eighth Route Army that entered the city had neat horses, neat clothes, and neat weapons, which could be described as mighty and majestic. The Mongols had a soft spot for cavalry, and when they saw that the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army had wiped out the Japanese army, they sighed at the strength of the Eighth Route Army. The planes of the Eighth Route Army are powerful, the guns of the Eighth Route Army are also powerful, and the artillery of the Eighth Route Army is even more powerful.

The local people were still a little afraid, afraid that the Japanese army would soon come back. The Eighth Route Army knew about it and escorted some Japanese prisoners into the city for a turn. When the people saw this, they were immediately relieved.

Along the way, cadres of the Eighth Route Army preached discipline in Mongolian. The Mongolian people could see at a glance that there were Mongols in the Eighth Route Army.

At the end of the entrance ceremony, the Eighth Route Army's security notices were plastered all over several main streets. The Mongolian people read it and settled down.

The notice did not say anything about returning to the motherland, but only said that the Eighth Route Army would not allow the Mongolian compatriots to be ravaged by the Japanese army, and sent troops to liberate the steppe so that the Mongolian people could live a happy life.

Ulaanbaatar was basically in a state of anarchy, and the notice clearly stated that the original person in charge was asked to contact the Eighth Route Army, and in the afternoon, a few district chiefs came.

The Eighth Route Army was extremely polite to them, and told them to tell everyone that no one would be held accountable for their crimes of defecting to the Japanese.

The next day, the Outer Mongolian Provincial Government was electrified. The chairman of the government, Ulanfu, the vice chairman, Guan Xiangying, and the members of the committee are the heads of those districts. First Secretary of the Party Committee, Guan Xiangying, Deputy Secretary, Wu Lanfu, Lin Meng, Du Xigang. Commander of the Military Region, Lin Meng, Deputy Commander and Political Commissar, Du Xigang.

Guan Xiangying is the number one leader in Outer Mongolia and focuses on all-round work.

In addition, because I heard that the governors of several provinces did not run away, I asked them to come to Ulaanbaatar and take up positions in the new government to govern the Outer Mongolian region.

Almost all the Mongols noticed that neither their announcements, nor their proclamations, nor their proclamations of the people referred to Outer Mongolia as a state.

Soon, a lama came and came to test the tone of the Eighth Route Army.

On the same day, the Eighth Route Army posted the religious policy and announced it to the whole of Mongolia. Religion is the object of our solidarity, but it must not interfere in politics or in the lives of pastoralists in nearby villages.

People in religious circles were very happy and rushed to tell each other. This eight-way is better than Choibalsan, and they don't ban our activities anymore.

Xiao Lu and Guan Xiangying manipulated all this work, however, Guan Xiangying came forward, and Xiao Lu kept hiding behind the scenes, and when he met people from all walks of life, although Xiao Lu attended, he didn't say a word.

In the past few days, he has been focusing more on military work.

Sweep the battlefield until the end of the third day of the battle.

The main casualties of the Japanese were caused by rockets. Thousands of Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded in each barracks, followed by later submachine guns, these high-rate submachine guns caused huge casualties to the Japanese army, and the Japanese army had not finished a single shot, and the Eighth Route Army had already fired a few shots.

In the end, the Japanese suffered heavy casualties in several fierce attacks, and without orders from the headquarters, they broke through separately. The Japanese broke through the encirclement and could not outrun the cavalry, resulting in heavy casualties among the Japanese in the pursuit process, and a small number of Japanese troops finally surrendered, and the battle ended.

The headquarters was not with the four barracks, and was raided by small units sent by the Eighth Route Army, and many officers were arrested.

When the rocket artillery was fired, Xiaolu made a lot of preparations and specially sent people to reconnoiter the location near the Japanese barracks. Twenty launchers, plus the rockets that the troops had brought in, and more than 40 rockets were fired at a barracks, and when they were finished, a second shot was fired immediately, and all the rockets were quickly fired.

In the past few tens of minutes, the rocket operators were all sweating profusely, and after the shelling, everyone fell to the ground from exhaustion. Xiaolu shouted to everyone to get up and quickly shift their positions. After the rocket is fired, you can see the white smoke here from a distance, and if the enemy attacks, it is completely possible that the whole army will be destroyed.

The Japanese army had never seen this kind of shell at all, and at the beginning, many Japanese were still watching the excitement, and after being bombed, they knew that it was powerful, but it was too late. The rate of fire of rocket artillery shells is fast, and they do not seek accuracy, but only seek large coverage and amazing damage.

A Japanese prisoner of war was still apprehensive when he mentioned the shelling decades later: all previous tactics against the shelling had failed. The rate of fire of this cannon is too fast to dodge at all. He and many others surrendered because of this powerful shelling.

It needs to be said about those dozens of tanks. The tank barracks were not together with several army barracks, and when the large forces of the Eighth Route Army surrounded them, the Mongol soldiers surrendered again. There were Japanese troops in the army, they were not allowed to surrender, and a Mongolian soldier was shot, as a result, the Mongolian soldiers rebelled together, killed the Japanese, and defected to the Eighth Route Army.

After the battle, the troops hurried to clean up the supplies, but fortunately, the Japanese army had just brought in a convoy of baggage, including the winter clothes of the 10,000 Japanese soldiers. These materials became the Eighth Route Army's reliance to survive this winter.

In the past few days, almost all the progress has been monitored in Yan'an in a timely manner. Knowing that the sneak attack was successful in such a short period of time and the battle was over, Yan'an was very happy and sent a telegram to the whole country, announcing the recovery of Outer Mongolia.

The news spread, and the whole country was excited.

October 12, 1941. Yekaterinburg, USSR.

The news soon reached the Soviet Union. Currently, the new central center of the USSR is located in Yekaterinburg. Yekaterinburg got the news and reported it to the Political Affairs Bureau, but the news was very short, only saying that the Chinese Communist army had recovered Outer Mongolia and wiped out all the Japanese troops in Outer Mongolia in a day and a half.

At first, Stalin was furious, this was depriving the Soviet Union of its rights and interests in Outer Mongolia! Soon, however, the statesman Stalin calmed down, and the Soviet Union was now under tremendous pressure to weather the crisis.

Carefully studying the intelligence, Stalin was surprised, the Chinese army was so powerful? Is it possible? If not, then how to explain the report of the intelligence services in Ulaanbaatar?

Stalin remained silent and demanded that a delegation be sent to Ulaanbaatar to find out what was true and false. Demand the full truth.

Before Stalin could say anything, it had already been suggested that the troops of Manchuria should be asked to help destroy the Japanese army in the Far East.

Stalin thought in his heart that this was the way to go, he was accustomed to issuing orders to the Chinese troops in Manchuria, and suddenly, he realized something. The army of Manchuria, and even the army of northern Shaanxi, did not owe him at all, they used to be cooperative, and there was no relationship between superiors and subordinates. He issued orders, did it work?

The Manchurian troops, starting in 1936, had all the information at a price, and then they didn't need money until there was an agreement on the exchange of materials for intelligence. Later, the Manchurian forces never asked for any assistance from the Soviet Union, on the contrary, they also aided the Soviet Union in the Battle of Nomenkan. Even pharmaceutical production technology has to be negotiated before it is transferred.

Stalin was impressed by these several things.

Can you order Yan'an, let Yan'an order the commander-in-chief of Manchuria to help us destroy the Japanese army? Need to compromise on this?
