Katyusha stood on the steep shore,

On the defensive line outside Moscow, Russian soldiers and officers were constantly singing the classic "Katyusha", because they had just recaptured the last line of defense outside Moscow, which meant that they had completely driven the Germans out of Moscow

"Marshal Zhukov, congratulations"

In one of the trenches of the front, several members of the NKVD congratulated Zhukov

Although Zhukov didn't like these guys very much, Zhukov, who understood that these people were not easy to offend, finally reluctantly let himself make a smile

Because Russia was much weaker than it was in history after losing parts of Outer Méng, Central Asia, South Russia, and the Far East, Russia did not enter a counterattack at the end of '41, as is the case in history, but remained in a stalemate with Germany until May '42

During the month, China captured Taiwan and then Thailand, while Russia succeeded in expelling the Germans from Moscow

However, standing in the trenches, looking at the cheering soldiers and officers around him, Zhukov did not have even a trace of joy in his heart

"This victory should have come sooner..."

Thinking of what he had experienced in the past, Zhukov said bitterly in his heart

After the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, Germany tore up the "Soviet-German Non-Aggression Pact" and sent 5.5 million troops to invade the Soviet Union, the German army attacked in three directions, north into Leningrad, middle into Moscow, south into Kiev Due to the Russian army's hasty response, it was impossible to stop the German army, as a result, the German army advanced 300-600 kilometers in 3 weeks to late July, and the German army advanced south only 15 to 20 kilometers from Kiev Stalin ordered to hold Kiev, but Zhukov strongly advocated abandoning Kiev and withdrawing the Southwestern Front to the other side of the Dnieper River to avoid being surrounded by the German army, Preserve strength, and then try to counterattack, but unfortunately Stalin not only did not accept Zhukov's suggestion, but dismissed him from the post of chief of the General Staff, demoted him to the commander of the reserve front, two months later, the Southwestern Front was surrounded by the German army in the Kiev area, Stalin realized that Zhukov's proposition was correct, but it was too late, 700,000 troops of the Southwestern Front were surrounded and annihilated, Kiev fell

Due to the fact that in many later battles, the reserves commanded by Zhukov played a sè, so soon Zhukov was appointed commander of the Leningrad Front, and by the evening of October 9, Stalin decided to merge the Western Front and the Reserve Front, which was commanded by Zhukov, and on October 10, Zhukov was appointed commander of the reorganized Western Front

At this time, after losing the support of China, Germany's morale was much lower because the battle line was too long, the supplies were insufficient, the campaign was too depleted, there were no defensive positions and campaign reserves, and the cold winter had just survived and the hope of capturing Moscow could not be seen for a long time

And this is the best opportunity for Zhukov

After all, without China's support, Romanian oil alone could not support Germany's war machine

On the other hand, Zhukov commanded the formed Western Front and the German army to fight for Moscow, and little by little to recover the lost city

At the same time, Zhukov also thought about transferring some of the well-equipped troops in Siberia and the Far East back to Moscow, after all, the current Western Front has just been formed, and it is too poor in terms of training and combat effectiveness, and if you have to say that they have anything, it can only be enthusiasm...

It's a pity that Zhukov's idea was ultimately rejected by Stalin..., for the simple reason that the Russian top brass did not think that China could be trusted...

In the eyes of Stalin and others, the Germans were indeed hateful, but China, which had seized many territories in Russia, could not be trusted, especially what China was best at, was stabbing in the back...

During the First World War, China was an ally of Russia, but after Russia fell into the Inner League, China continued to take the opportunity to regain the lost territories such as the Outer Khingan Mountains and the Outer Méng, and also took the opportunity to cut off Central Asia and South Russia south of the Volga River from Russia...

It was precisely because of what China did back then that Russia did not have enough strength to push Germany back

At the same time, it is precisely because of this experience that Stalin and others are quite worried that China will once again take advantage of this opportunity to take away the whole of Siberia?

You know, in the past twenty years, the long national border has been a considerable pressure for both China and Russia, after all, the longer the national border, the more areas that need to be guarded against, plus the relationship between the two countries is not good, friction and even jiāo fire also happens from time to time...

If we take this opportunity to annex the whole of Siberia, it will definitely be a thing for China once and for all―――――― at least Stalin and others think that they will never be able to refuse this yòò

Even if Russia wants to retaliate afterwards, Russia, which has lost Siberia and suffered a great loss of national strength because of the war, will not have the strength to retaliate against China.

Of course, Stalin didn't know that Yan Guang was actually eyeing Australia at this time, and he didn't have the time to care about Siberia, and he also needed to have a strong Russia, and continue to attract firepower before the younger brothers became strong or something...

Yet, in any case, Stalin never dared to believe China

After all, Stalin was also a man who had lived through that era, and had witnessed the collapse of the once huge Russia, and the role that China played in it

From a certain point of view, Zhukov still recognized Stalin's wariness of China

After all, Zhukov knows very well that China is definitely the biggest threat to Russia, which is incomparable to even Britain, Germany or the United States, after all, these countries cannot completely threaten Russia, but China has the ability to swallow Russia entirely

But compared to these, the current battle situation is more important

The most important thing is that Zhukov trusted Sorge's intelligence and judgment

Prior to this, Sorge had already anticipated the Barbarossa plan, so Zhukov believed Sorge's intelligence that "China would not attack Russia or annex Russia."

And most importantly, although Germany is now weak, Russia, which is also much weaker than it was in history, will not be able to expel the Russians from Moscow without mobilizing forces from Siberia...

It's a pity that Zhukov believes that it can't be returned to Stalin

Fortunately, the facts quickly proved Zhukov right, and in the case of inferior strength, although Zhukov's command was sè, he was never able to expel the Germans from Moscow

In this case, Stalin naturally thought that Zhukov was slacking off or that there was a problem with his command ability, so Stalin even found Vasilevsky and others to replace Zhukov, but fortunately, Vasilevsky and others supported Zhukov very much, and always believed that the current situation was caused by insufficient troops...

In this case, Stalin could only admit that Zhukov was right

Of course, this also lays the groundwork for something to happen in the future

In fact, in history, Zhukov's fate was not very good, after the war, Zhukov served as the commander-in-chief of the Soviet army group in Germany and the supreme military administrator of the Soviet-occupied area, but in April 1946, Stalin said that because Eisenhower and Méng Gomery had been recalled to China, he decided to also call Zhukov back to China, and changed to the post of Deputy People's Commissar of Defense of the Soviet Union, Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Sokolovsky succeeded him as commander of the Soviet forces in Germany, Some people in the West believe that this is due to Zhukov's outstanding military achievements and his own shortcomings, After being suspicious of Stalin, he was dismissed from the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Army after being criticized by the Central Military Commission for being politically unreliable to the Party...,

On June 9, 1946, Stalin signed an order accusing Zhukov of "being immodest and arrogant, taking credit for himself the decisive role in all the major victories in the war" stating that "Zhukov is ready to ennar a number of frustrated and removed commanders with hatred to engage in activities against the government and the Supreme High Command"

Because Konev, Rokossovsky, and Vasilevsky firmly refuted the claim that Zhukov had a plot, Stalin did not decide to arrest Zhukov

However, even so, Zhukov was removed from the Central Committee of the Party Central Committee, demoted, demoted to the post of commander of the Odessa Military District, and later to the post of commander of the Ural Military District

This situation did not end until after Stalin's death

In 1953, Zhukov participated in the arrest of Beria, as a result of which he became the First Deputy Minister of Defense, and in February 1955 he was appointed Minister of Defense of the USSR

In 1957, Khrushchev had a conflict with Molotov, Bulganin and others, the latter demanded Khrushchev's resignation at the presidium meeting, Khrushchev asked for the convening of a plenary meeting of the Party Central Committee, Zhukov supported Khrushchev, and ordered the Ministry of Defense to send the Central Committee members to Moscow by military aircraft On June 19, more than 300 members of the Central Committee, alternate members, and censors held a plenary meeting, and most of the members expressed support for Khrushchev, and Malenkov, Molotov and others were dismissed from their posts

However, his over-ostentatiousness finally aroused suspicion, and when he was invited by Tito to visit Yugoslavia, he was dismissed from his post as defense minister, and in addition to the status of political commissar of the Central Committee and his forced retirement, the same issue of the Red Star newspaper that reported his return to China also carried the news of his dismissal, and Zhukov's former subordinates and colleagues were mobilized to openly accuse Zhukov of being rescued by Zhukov on the battlefield in those years, and some generals also came forward to attack

In this case, in the end Zhukov had to propose recuperation and from then on withdraw from the political arena

After Khrushchev stepped down, Zhukov was brought up again, but the eavesdropping on him continued until the moment of his death more than 9 years later...

――――――――――――――――――――

Since it had never been possible to expel the Germans from Moscow, Stalin finally had to agree to Zhukov's proposal to transfer some of the Jīng sharp troops from Siberia back to Moscow

These so-called jīng sharp troops may indeed be called jīng rui

Because most of these troops had participated in border clashes with the Wehrmacht, and before they set out, they also received a considerable part of the standard equipment of the Wehrmacht, as well as Katyusha equivalents

Although equipment does not necessarily equal combat effectiveness, at least as a regular army, they are much stronger than the reserves of the Western Front...

And it was precisely because of this new force that Zhukov was finally able to expel the Germans from Moscow

It's just that after expelling the Germans from Moscow, Zhukov was not able to pursue them

The reason is very simple, in the past long war, Russia has lost so much that Russia has not been able to mobilize enough forces in a short period of time, of course, this is also related to the sudden interruption of China's support for some key projects

However, this is not surprising, after all, for Yan Guang, the more tragic the war between the Russians and the Germans, the more sacrifices, the better

If the war had ended early, it would have been out of his mind

On the other hand, Yan Guang also needs to focus the eyes of Westerners on the European battlefield for a longer time, so that he can take advantage of this opportunity to take Australia into his arms

After all, Australia is also an independent continent, such a large place, if there are no special circumstances, Britain and the United States will never sit idly by and watch China annex it...

――――――――――――――――――――..., although Zhukov wanted to take advantage of the victory, but because China interrupted the supply of many materials, and Russia also paid considerable losses in the process of expelling the Germans from Moscow, so after expelling the Germans from Moscow, Zhukov could only interrupt this idea and turn to reorganize the remaining troops to restore their combat effectiveness as soon as possible

At the same time, Zhukov also personally ran to Stalin and asked Stalin to negotiate with China and resume assistance on some key projects as soon as possible, so that the campaign against the Germans could be launched as soon as possible

And Yan Guang on the other side is also happy to rub his skin with the Russians...

At the same time, the expulsion of the Germans from Moscow and the liberation of Taiwan also made headlines in the world newspapers of the time

Of course, for Britain and the United States and other Western countries, the victory of the Battle of Moscow is definitely much more important than the victory of Taiwan, after all, Moscow's importance is definitely far greater than that of Taiwan, and no one can deny this

As a result, the front pages of major newspapers are almost exclusively from Moscow, while news from Taiwan can only be ranked second

For the Japanese, however, the news of the fall of Taiwan was the first edition to the letter

Although the current Taiwan can no longer be compared with the Nanyang Islands and Australia that Japan has seized, for the Japanese, Taiwan is one of the first two colonies they acquired

In Taiwan, the Japanese have been in business for many years, and they also have a deep affection for this place, so when the news of the fall of Taiwan came back to the Japanese mainland, it was like a bolt from the blue for the Japanese

Of course, this is only for ordinary Japanese, for the Japanese high-level, the fall of Taiwan was originally predictable, so after the fall of Taiwan, although they were also very distressed, but in the end their eyes turned to the captured automatic rifles...

For this kind of weapon, many army generals have a high evaluation, of course, there are many army generals who think that this weapon is too làng bullet-consuming, and some think that the most important thing is the bushido jīng god or something...

However, one of the evaluations is quite unanimous, that is, it is a weapon that Japan cannot use

The reason is simple, although the magazine of this weapon is almost 30 rounds, and it can be more with a drum or extended magazine, but the same weapon consumes bullets very quickly...

As a country with very few copper mines, at least not enough for 800 million people, in order to solve the problem of bullets, the Ministry of Defense Mén, after nearly 20 years of research, finally produced a very practical Xìng steel shell bullet

I have to admit that the bullets of the copper shell are indeed better than the steel shell, but because of the lack of copper resources, China cannot use too many bullets for a very simple reason, because at this time China has six or seven million troops, but the domestic copper mines cannot provide the bullets that can supply six or seven million troops

Especially now that it's a time of war, it's already very intense in peacetime sè training or something, and in wartime, the consumption of bullets will only increase compared to peacetime

Of course, China can also import copper ore from countries such as Chile, which are rich in copper and have been trading with China for more than two decades, and have even bought a lot of copper ore in Chile in the past ten years

The problem is that it is a time of war, and Chilean copper mines cannot be shipped to China...

As a result, steel-shelled bullets appeared, after all, China's iron ore resources are still relatively rich, copper-shelled bullets are not good, and steel-shelled bullets are still no problem

However, if China does, it does not mean that Japan can do the same

After all, whether it is copper ore resources or iron ore resources, Japan is the same poverty...

However, it is precisely because of this that Hideki Tojo and others have clearly seen the truth that this automatic weapon is not suitable for Japan, of course, despite this, there are still many Japanese generals who appreciate this weapon

But appreciate the expensive appreciation, the rest is...

"Since we can't use it, let's give it to the Germans..."

"Then, come back with some weapons we can use."

In this case, the rifle flew over and came to Germany, and by this time the Germans had been waiting in the port for a long time, to be continued)
