Zhan Yang smiled slightly and said: "Please rest assured, commander, the troops under the northeast cluster of our department have made preparations, and there are three mobile light cavalry regiments assigned to the central cluster to my cluster, and I will first use the armored division to carve a breakthrough at the eastern end of the defense line of the army, and use the two divisions of the newly formed units of the Youth Army to support a mobile rocket artillery brigade and a field heavy artillery brigade to penetrate deep into Andong and Yingkou. ”

Zhang Xuewu nodded and said: "Within the combat range of our army's superior air force, the naval superiority of the Yue army cannot be brought into play, but our army lacks heavy bombers and torpedo planes, and cannot deal a fatal blow to the large ships of the Yue army, so it can only focus on blockade." ”

Gao Zhihang nodded and said: "Our army does not have torpedo planes, and it is a fact that most of the pilots have no experience in attack operations at sea, and sea training is very different from land-based operations, our pilots need a lot of training before they can be put into combat, if they are boldly put into battle, our army's losses will be very large, but recently our army is equipped with 30 mm and 50 mm honeycomb rockets, the effect is very good, especially the 20 50 mm rockets installed with white phosphorus warheads, which can be launched within 4.5 seconds. However, precise control by a very experienced and experienced pilot is required during the launch to ensure a concentrated hit rate! ”

Zhang Xuewu nodded and said: "I still ask Director Gao to introduce this point in detail, after all, we still don't know much about the strategy and tactics of the Air Force, what difficulties can be raised, for the sake of strategy and politics to make meaningless sacrifices of officers and soldiers, we have done too many things before, I hope it will not happen again in the future." ”

Gao Zhihang took a deep breath, Zhang Xuewu's understanding of the Air Force made him feel very moved, so he said: "The surname of the Falcon attack aircraft is indeed very good, especially its dive speed and climb speed, which exceed the active attack aircraft in various countries around the world, but its hesitation speed is too fast when diving at high speed, and it takes a very skilled pilot to master the attack skills. But now it is extremely vulnerable to air raids, and once the bridge is destroyed, then the combat effectiveness of the entire battleship will be lost. ”

Zhang Xuewu, Gao Zhihang and others were discussing how to attack the Kwantung Army, Nagawa made an excuse to leave, and Zhang Xuewu just waved his hand, after Nagawa left, Zhang Xuewu pointed to a small speaker under the table in the reception room, and then made a silent action, winked vigorously at Zhanyang and Ye Yunfei and said, "You go on!" ”

Zhan Yang comprehended: "Commander, the Russian translator just now is here, and we will take out all the next battle plans to discuss, is that okay?" It will give the Russians a comprehensive understanding of our army's battle plan, and if the Russians leak secrets, then our army may fall into a complete strategic passivity. ”

Zhang Xuewu said very indifferently: "The Russians need us to contain and constantly weaken the Kwantung Army, so our army can get a steady stream of assistance, defeat the Kwantung Army, eliminate and expel its main force, and concentrate the main forces back to North and Central China, it only takes two to three years to fully complete the preparations for the strategic counteroffensive, and the Soviet Union also needs our data technology." ”

In a utility room at the end of the corridor more than ten meters away from Zhang Xuewu's room, several Cheka spies are nervously recording and translating, the earliest eavesdropping device is not a high-tech thing for Zhang Xuewu at all, Zhang Xuewu has carefully checked the corners of the room since he moved in, almost every room has a such eavesdropping device, unceremoniously said that even all the sounds of his previous ** performance with Nagawa have been recorded and archived, and the Cheka's work can be described as fruitful, It's a pity that I ran into Zhang Xuewu.

And Nagawa was reporting what she heard to the direct person in charge Kanov, and after Karnov quickly sorted it out, he immediately handed it over to the conference room, Stalin sat firmly on the big sofa in the conference room smoking a pipe, Zhokovsky, Vlasov, Kirov, Zhukov and others all sat on the sofa opposite, the atmosphere in the conference room seemed very depressing, Stalin glanced at the documents on the table and said: "Vlasov, you and Zhukov are both experts on the China issue, What do you think of Zhang Xuewu's secret visit? The attitude of the 10th Theater towards the Kwantung Army had a direct impact on the Far Eastern policy towards the Soviet political axe. ”

Zokovsky glanced at Kirov and said: "Comrade Stalin, I think that if Zhang Xuewu's 10th Theater completely defeats the Kwantung Army is not in line with the current interests of the Soviet Union, Zhang Xuewu's attitude towards us is in a period of vacillation, if Zhang Xuewu is supported to regain control of the Northeast, can Zhang Xuewu guarantee our interests in the Northeast?" There are many problems such as the departure and actual control of Mongolia, so whether it is Yue Ben or Zhang Xuewu, it is not in the interests of the Soviet Union for one of them to have an absolute advantage, and the best case is that they will continue to wear and tear between themselves. ”

Stalin nodded thoughtfully and said, "How about the verification of the technology and data drawings brought by Zhang Xuewu this time?" ”

When Kirov heard that Stalin was asking about technical exchanges and cooperation, he hurriedly stood up and said: "Great Comrade Stalin, the 21 technical patents and drawings brought by Zhang Xuewu have been confirmed by our experts, and they all have practical use value and room for research and improvement. ”

Stalin nodded and said: "Zhang Xuewu also put forward their request, after consideration, I think that the amount of aid is too large, especially in terms of refined oil and special alloy armor, aero engines, etc., as for the equipment and materials such as six hundred TB-46 tank chassis and millions of OEM shells can be provided to Zhang Xuewu's tenth theater, in principle, the materials we provide are not enough for him to immediately launch a large-scale offensive, and the machinery and equipment they need can meet all their requirements. As long as it is not something that can produce combat effectiveness immediately, Zhang Xuewu can give it to them if he needs us, and if the international situation changes dramatically after nine to 12 months, he will not be caught off guard and helpless. ”

Zhukov hesitated for a moment and said: "Dear Comrade Stalin, the main combat forces of our Soviet Red Army are all deployed against Europe, especially the border between Finland and Poland, which involves the main combat strength of our Red Army, and the forces deployed by the Red Army in the Far East can only contain the Kwantung Army, and have no offensive strength, and will be very passive once it encounters a provocation from the Army, so I think we should give Zhang Xuewu a certain degree of assistance and support, otherwise Zhang Xuewu will stop continuing to attack the Kwantung Army because of insufficient supplies. It is very likely that the Kwantung Army, which has lost successive defeats in the attack on Rehe, will shift its strategic focus, and before the neutrality treaty agreement with either the Soviet Union or Germany, both the Soviet Union and Germany are potential enemies, and we need a reliable ally like Zhang Xuewu in the Far East to share the possibility of war breaking out for us. ”

Stalin glanced at Zoukovsky, Vlasov, and Kirov and nodded: "Then we will extend the supply time of materials, and the loan for Zhang Xuewu will also be paid to them in batches, so that they will pay us to make all orders such as 300 jackal light tank chassis can be paid for first, and the shells can be provided to Zhang Xuewu openly, so that he can blow up himself!" However, as far as the so-called Zhang Xuewu wants to sign a secret agreement with us, I don't think it is necessary, after all, Zhang Xuewu cannot represent the Chinese national political axe, and the only legitimate political axe recognized by the Soviet Union is the national political axe, and if one day Zhang Xuewu is the only representative of China's legitimate political axe, then he will be discussing the Mongolian issue and the demarcation of the Sino-Soviet border. ”

After deciding how to treat Zhang Xuewu's attitude and countermeasures, Stalin waved his hand and retreated Zoukovsky, Vlasov and others, although Zhang Xuewu has a certain amount of advanced technology, but these are nothing in Stalin's eyes, because in Stalin's view, as long as the Soviet Union's aid to Rehe is tight, it is not difficult to want Zhang Xuewu's technology.

Zhang Xuewu came to the Soviet Union secretly, and he left quietly, Stalin's busy government affairs were naturally flawless, and Zhang Xuewu had no complaints about this, after all, the identity gap between himself and Stalin was like the superpower of the United States of America and the small warlords of Somalia in later generations, and strength in the international community is everything, and there is no respect without strength! Gao Fei is naturally aware of this.

The Soviet side decided to provide him with a large amount of materials and machinery and equipment, including 500 150-mm to 75-mm artillery shells, 70,000 tons of refined oil, 3,000 trucks, 300 jackal light tank chassis, 200 Soviet-made 1936 122-mm field howitzers, two production lines and related supporting equipment for the same caliber grenade production line, and so on.

However, with the exception of machinery and equipment, which provided immediate assistance, weapons, equipment, and ammunition were delivered to the Tenth Theater of Operations in a gradual nine-month period, while the $1.5 billion previously promised at one time was also paid over 12 months, changing from an interest-free loan to an international standard interest rate of 4 percent.

Zhang Xuewu knew that he had led the Soviet Union into a trap of strategic attrition, and when faced with the sudden attack of the Germans, the Soviet Union, which had taken the wrong route, would be even more vulnerable, and his tenth theater would have to carry out the plan of driving the northward from now on.
