Chapter 450: I'm responsible for what went wrong

readx; Immediately afterwards, there were hundreds of bombing points on the entire section of the railway, these explosion points were uneven, the long ones were twenty or thirty meters, and the short ones were only a few meters, although it did not take much to repair, but it was very time-consuming, and the most important thing was that there were so many places that needed to be repaired that the train could not pass normally at all.

As a result, the time to transfer troops to the front line was infinitely delayed, which made the Soviet general Zhukov, who was in charge of the transfer of troops, very depressed, and the defense of Moscow ended, and finally Zhukov won the war with superhuman wisdom.

With the end of the defense of Moscow, Zhukov was sent to the Far East non-stop, and in the early years Zhukov had stayed in the Far Eastern Military District, and also commanded the troops of the Far Eastern Military District to conduct a campaign with the army at Nomenkan.

Therefore, Zhukov, who had just come down from Moscow, was sent to the Far East in a blink of an eye to command the battle against Army Group North, and in recognition of Zhukov's outstanding contribution to the war, Zhukov should have been awarded the rank of marshal on January 18, 1943.

was promoted to marshal nearly a year ahead of schedule, and at this time it was only less than two years before Zhukov was promoted to general, and Zhukov also completely became Stalin's firefighter, where he needed to go, he could plug the leak.

Only this time he came to the Far East, although Zhukov was in this place when he reached the peak of power, but this time, the Far East may not bring Zhukov any good luck.

The law of the Soviet army's early operations is generally to defend in spring and summer, and when the autumn and winter seasons begin**, coming and going for a year, the Germans have worked hard to gain the advantage, and in the blink of an eye, they were recaptured by the Soviets, and the Germans were severely damaged.

But what good can Zhukov do here in Army Group North? Autumn and winter**? Please, they don't lack anything, and they can take the initiative to launch an offensive in winter, so will the offensive of the Soviets work in front of them?

Although Zhukov is very good, he has become more and more confident after so many battles, and he is more and more comfortable in fighting, but this does not mean that his heart will swell rapidly, in other words, although Zhukov is more confident, he has always been very cautious, and he will never be arrogant enough to look down on the enemy.

At this time, Zhukov was also sitting on a train smoking depressedly, frowning tightly, not knowing what to do, the train had stopped here for two days, although the railway that had been blown up before was about to be repaired, and it would be open to traffic soon.

But then came the news that the railway had been blown up, and not long after it was repaired, the sappers on this side had just left, and the Chinese Empire continued to bomb the railroad behind, and the battle on the front line had already begun.

So far, he, the commander of the Far East, has not reached the front, and millions of reinforcements are still stuck in the road and cannot move, Zhukov is very depressed, of course, he sees not only that the reinforcements cannot arrive on time, but he sees more things.

The Chinese Empire did everything possible to prevent reinforcements from going to the Far East, obviously in order to completely wipe out the forces of the Far Eastern Military District before the reinforcements arrived, and then launch a surprise attack when the reinforcements arrived.

On the other hand, what if reinforcements arrive at the front? They can attack the railroads, and they are not even afraid of the trains that transport troops, so what will happen to the supplies in the future? Railways are vital for supplies, and once they are blocked, they are in danger of being cut off.

It can be said that as long as the Northern Army Group sends a few thousand, or even a few hundred troops, it can cut off the supply line and starve to death on the front line.

Whenever Zhukov thought of this, his mood was particularly heavy, even Zhukov, who had experienced a hundred battles, did not know how to fight this battle at this time? It can be said that this is a dead end, no matter what move he makes next, the chances of survival are not great.

Whether it is the Air Force, the Panzer Corps, or the Army, or the artillery, they do not have the slightest advantage in front of Army Group North, and the only weather advantage that the Soviets can rely on has also been reduced to a minimum, and the Chinese Empire does not eat this at all.

Moreover, most of the soldiers of the Northern Army Group have also stayed in the northeast region of China for at least a year, although the winter there is not as good as the Soviet Union, but after all, the temperature is dozens of degrees below zero, as long as a little training, it is not difficult to adapt to the environment of the Soviet Union.

"Order all the Red Army soldiers to get off the train and defend in place, and the troops behind to guard the railway to ensure that the railway behind is intact, and at the same time order the Red Army soldiers of the Far Eastern Military District to withdraw to us, and we will have a battle with Army Group North here."

After a long time, Zhukov finally made up his mind.

Moving forward, he had no confidence in victory, and now he had to stop, guard the railroad behind him, make sure that the supplies could be delivered to them smoothly, and then fight the enemy here.

Zhukov, however, knew that this was not an excellent place for fighting, because it was unreliable, and the railways were mainly built on the plains, which was very beneficial for the movement of the armored corps of Army Group North, and also for the bombing of the enemy's air force, which was completely unsafe.

But Zhukov did not dare to give the order to withdraw the whole army at will, even if Stalin had given Zhukov full authority to command the troops in the Far East and promised not to interfere too much in his decision-making, but only not to intervene too much, not at all.

Zhukov has been done by Stalin not once or twice because of this kind of thing, so this time Zhukov also made this decision very carefully, although he did not order to retreat, but this does not mean that Zhukov is nailed here, once there is a situation that is unfavorable to them, Zhukov still has to order a retreat, he cannot see so many troops annihilated with his own eyes.

"Comrade Zhukov, have you thought about the consequences of making such a decision?"

One of Zhukov's relatives reminded in surprise that fortunately, now that Zhukov is the commander and political commissar, no one can interfere with Zhukov's decision at will, but Rao is so, and he also decided to remind Zhukov.

"All I know is that if the troops continue to advance, there is a high probability that they will run out of ammunition and food, and the enemy will most likely destroy us without a single soldier."

Zhukov smiled bitterly and shook his head, although this statement is very unreasonable, but at this moment Zhukov can only say this, and in addition, he can't come up with any more important reasons.

"I think it would be better to report the situation here and our ideas to Comrade Stalin, and let Comrade Stalin make a decision."

He continued to say that he had only risen again with great difficulty, and it was naturally impossible to watch Zhukov fall again.

And he has already formed a camp with Zhukov, and everyone is advancing and retreating together, and Zhukov is their leader, which has long been well known in the Soviet Union, a commander will definitely bring some of his own people over, then others can only make way for them.

He used to give way to others, but now he is just here to steal other people's positions, and he also knows that once Stalin blames him, let alone him, even Zhukov will not be able to eat and walk around.

"Well, then you go and tell Comrade Stalin about the situation here, and by the way, ask Comrade Stalin's opinion."

Zhukov is also vacillating from side to side now, not knowing what to do, and it is better to ask Stalin's opinion, at least this will give him a clear goal.

When the time comes, even if he blames him, he will not go to the end, because in this case Stalin will be tantamount to slapping himself in the face.

Northeast, in the headquarters of the Northwest Army Group of Jinxi.

Liu Lingjian frowned and lay on the map to check carefully, the Soviet Union had only one railway through the east and west, that is, the Trans-Siberian Railway, which opened from Moscow and passed through Ryazan, Samara, Chelyabinsk, Omsk, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Chita, Khabarovsk (Boli), to Vladivostok (Vladivostok). With a total length of 9,332 km, it is currently the longest railway in the world.

There are about 1,000 freight and passenger trains running on this steel artery. west of Chelyabinsk, built in the middle of the XIX century; It is 7,416 kilometers long to the east, and was built in 1**1 and opened to traffic in 1916.

This railway is easy to find on the map, even if it is not marked on the map on the market, but a little inquiry in the territory of the Soviet Union knows where this railway passes.

"Stopped in Novosibirsk? Do you want to fight us there? ”

Liu Ling quickly found the location of Novosibirsk on the map, and after looking at it carefully, he roughly understood Zhukov's intentions.

"Report to the commander, the troops of the Far Eastern Military District are beginning to retreat."

Immediately afterwards, the staff officer's report made Liu Ling more sure of his thoughts, it seemed that this Zhukov really wanted to start a decisive battle with them in Novosibirsk.

Liu Ling couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, Zhukov is a good handsome talent, knowing that if he advances, he will fall into our encirclement and face the danger of being cut off from supplies, but now he is smart, and he will directly retreat there to defend.

It's just that Zhukov can't help but look down on Army Group North too much, right? You think I'm going to attack if you're crouching there? Do you think I'm going to go if you're in a good position? Hmph, you think so, I don't do it, I don't go there, see what you do?

"How's going on over there, Chairman Chiang?"

Liu Ling then asked.

Zhukov thought that he could sit firmly on the Diaoyutai as long as he squatted in the Novosibirsk region and waited for Army Group North to confront them from the front, but he ignored a crucial issue, that is, Chairman Chiang was recovering Outer Mongolia, which had already been sent out.

Once Outer Mongolia is taken back by Chairman Chiang, then the Mongolian region of China will be directly adjacent to the territory of the Soviet Union, and the northwest of Mongolia is also connected to the Novosibirsk region.

But then again, don't underestimate the power of the troops in Chairman Chiang's hands, and don't always think that they are as vulnerable as you imagined.

After more than two years of development, at this time it can be regarded as a strong soldier, the soldiers have at least gone through more than one year of training, and there are many veterans who have come out of the War of Resistance Against Japan.

"Ulaanbaatar is already approaching, and it is estimated that the fighting will be almost over within a month, and the situation in Mongolia can be stabilized within a year."

"It's too slow, tell Chairman Chiang, let him send troops to Novosibirsk, I will be responsible for the problems of Mongolia, after defeating Zhukov, all the lands occupied by Tsarist Russia in the Qing Dynasty will be divided to him." (To be continued.) )
