Section 600 Stalemate

The Russians changed generals, and Blyukhel was a legendary hero in the Russian Civil War, because he won almost every battle, and even when his infantry encountered enemy tank units, he creatively used anti-tank fortifications to annihilate the opposing tanks.

In the original history, this person also came to China under the pseudonym Galen, as an adviser to the Northern Expeditionary Army, and later served as a military commander in the Far East, and threw away the armor of the provocative troops of Master Zhang Xueliang.

In terms of old spicy and resourceful, this person is far superior to Tukhachevsky.

Therefore, although Tukhachevsky did not have the talent and talent, this person on the contrary caused even more trouble for the tsarist army.

Having taken over Tukhachevsky's post, Blyukhel was in no hurry to attack, but set about strengthening the defense.

Heavy anti-aircraft fire was deployed in Novosibirsk, Tomsk and Teschet, air defense units were deployed on every important railway bridge, and fighter jets were sent to escort the railway line.

The geographical conditions of Siberia meant that the battles here had to be fought along the railway line, and Blyukher, not greedy for land, happily deflated Zima and withdrew all the Soviet troops to Tesshet, which was more convenient to defend, thus extending the distance between the Soviet army and Irkutsk to more than 700 kilometers.

"Is this going to fight me for a long time?"

Yang Chao was very strange about General Galen's deployment, Yang Chao knew very well that the reason why Soviet Russia was in a hurry to launch a war in winter was because he was in a hurry, and he was forced by Yang Chao's conspiracy.

However, General Galen's approach does not seem to be a race against time, the snow is about to melt, the rivers of Siberia are full of slow-drifting ice floes, and after the flood has passed, the water transportation will be unimpeded, and for Yang Chao, the traffic situation of the Soviet army will be greatly improved, but for the Soviet army. The transportation capacity of the Chinese will also be greatly enhanced, and the fear of intervening in the war will become smaller.

In this case, no matter how you look at it, Galen does not have the conditions to delay.

"This can't be disobedience, right?"

Yang Chao couldn't help but guess.

It's not for nothing. There is no comparison between the senior officers of the Soviet army before the Great Purge and those with little seniority after the Great Purge, many of whom are more senior than Stalin, and when the Soviet-Polish war broke out, Tukhachevsky was the commander-in-chief. Stalin, who was only the commander of the front army under him, was defeated because of his lack of cooperation, and was finally scolded by Tukhachevsky to his face.

General Galen's qualifications are not lower than Tukhachevsky's, so he dares to put himself in the position of an equal comrade in front of Stalin, to put it bluntly, the current Stalin's is only a comrade leader, a leader, not the later Red Tsar.

Yang Chao couldn't help but sigh. This is looking for death, no wonder Starling wants to launch a big purge, this is really not clean, from Stalin's point of view, it is understandable to replace obedient generals with obedient generals through purging. If history can assume that the Great Purge did not take place, when the Germans invaded and the Soviets paid a heavy price, then Stalin, who sacrificed the interests of the whole people for the sake of industrialization. Will there be an army rising up for a coup d'état?

Absolute power creates absolute corruption, but sometimes, if you want to achieve absolute causes, you must have absolute power to guarantee it. In short, the Soviet Russia's model of rapid industrialization by pooling the power of the state could not be guaranteed to proceed as planned without a highly centralized power. It is impossible for any kind of regime to suppress consumption and increase investment even though people are starving to death.

"If you want to fight a war of attrition, then fight him! What Lao Tzu has is money. Lao Tzu's money can be spent casually, is there money in Soviet Russia, and is it willing to spend money indiscriminately? ”

Yang Chao quickly decided that when the Soviet army gave up the attack, Yang Chao was still very sober, he knew that with the remaining 400,000 volunteers under his command, he would not be able to take the initiative to attack across thousands of miles, and the communication road was the biggest constraint on the Soviet army, and what about the Tsarist army?

But the railway is different, the train can't pass, the soldiers can't pass, the plane can fly over, the airship can fly over.

"Tomorrow during the day, the planes will give me a constant sortie, and I will bomb Teschet. The infantry advanced to Zima and built a front-line airfield in Zima so that the combat radius of long-range bombers could cover Novosibirsk. ”

Fighting a war of attrition is, of course, the most expensive in air combat, because the price of aircraft is the most expensive among all kinds of weapons.

The super air battle began, and the Soviet and Russian planes were no match for the Chinese planes at all, and the gap in performance had reached the point where it was difficult to make up for it with skill, so General Galen, in addition to letting fighters cruise the railway line and prevent bomber bombing, handed over all the air defense of their cities to various types of anti-aircraft guns.

However, for the city, although the high-altitude bomb can not be accurately hit, but there is no problem in throwing it into the city, so there are long-range bombers to drop bombs every day, the height can fly to 10,000 meters, the speed of up to 400 kilometers per hour bombers, so that the Soviet Russian large-caliber anti-aircraft artillery is difficult to threaten him, so every day Teschet is subjected to intensive bombing, although most of them fall into the city buildings of no strategic significance, but gasoline incendiary bombs are still annoying to cause continuous fires.

As a veteran, General Galen had thought of this for a long time, and he had prepared very well, demolishing the flammable buildings in the city a long time ago, and also forming a large firefighting team, which was dispatched in an orderly manner, and could extinguish the fire soon after each bombardment.

Therefore, this kind of high-altitude bombing is impossible to destroy Tesshet, if it does not destroy Tesshet, it will not threaten Novosibirsk, it will not threaten Novosibirsk, the Soviet army will control the transportation hub in the core area of Siberia, and as time goes by, the strategic form will become more and more favorable to the Soviet army, as long as China does not join the war, Soviet Russia will be invincible.

Galen's heart is very clear, he knows that with the strength of the tsarist regime, it is impossible to confront the powerful country of Soviet Russia, even if Yang Chao takes out his terrifying rich and rival assets, it is impossible to fight, the war is not entirely about money, the war is a decisive battle between all the forces of two countries and two nations, and Soviet Russia is much greater than the tsarist regime in terms of comprehensive national strength.

As for Stalin's concern that China would intervene in the war, General Galen was not worried at all, not that he was sure that China would not enter the war, but that he knew that if China entered the war, then his battle would be meaningless.

He is not as optimistic as Stalin, so understanding politics, Stalin wants to create a fait accompli as soon as possible, and then let the Chinese acquiesce to the status quo, and Galen proceeds from the military aspect, he knows that if China does not intervene, then maintaining a steady way of fighting will be greatly beneficial to Soviet Russia, what if China enters the war?

If China entered the war, the result would have been doomed long ago, just as the tsarist regime could not compete with Soviet Russia for comprehensive national strength, and Soviet Russia could not compete with China for comprehensive national strength now, so once China entered the war, the result would be no different, whether it defeated the tsarist regime in advance, and when facing China, Soviet Russia would only lose.

So General Gallen threw aside Stalin's strategic decisions from a political point of view, and began to deploy from a purely military point of view with a factual attitude.

What he didn't know was that his actions were undoubtedly digging a grave for himself. (To be continued.) )
