Turmoil in the Soviet Far Eastern Army

The sound of guns and cannons on the battlefield ended, and the three torrents of steel of the Chinese army quickly retreated like a wave that no longer moved forward. At the same time, the 47th Army, which was reinforced by various means through car lights, also replaced the 46th Army, which had almost lost all of its losses on the position, under the personal order of the commander-in-chief Liu Hua...

And at this moment, with the continuous entry of Chinese reinforcements into the battlefield, Liu Hua, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy, also came to the original 46th Army headquarters after dozens of hours of running...

After listening to the report of Chen Hong, the commander of the 46th Army, the commander-in-chief Liu Hua did not know whether to be happy or sad.

You must know that your own troops, after two decisive battles before and after, have successively eliminated two infantry divisions, two tank brigades, and three heavy artillery brigades of Lao Maozi, with a total strength of more than 50,000 people, that is, one-tenth of the total strength of the Soviet Far East Army. Such a huge result, no matter where it is placed, is an unprecedented victory.

As for grief... After the 46th Army, which was constantly strengthened before the war, there were more than 36,000 people before the war, and less than 6,000 people remained in the resistance war, and almost all losses were lost. A heavy tank division also lost more than half of its succession. As for the one aviation division closest to the battlefield, the entire fighter regiment was lost, and the two bomber regiments were also left with very little. One aviation division and two fighter regiments that have successively reinforced the battlefield have also paid a huge price for more than half of the losses....

Plus the loss of a border regiment the night before yesterday ... Heavy Artillery Brigade ...... The entire Chinese army, in the case of annihilating Lao Maozi's 50,000 troops, also paid a huge loss of almost 45,000 people. Suffice it to say, this victory can only be regarded as a pyrrhic victory.

Seeing Liu Hua with a pensive face in front of him, Chen Hong, who was angry because of the heavy casualties of the 46th Army. After seeing a steady stream of reinforcements and all kinds of heavy equipment in the rear. He asked directly in a tentative tone, "Commander-in-chief." You see, now reinforcements are also coming. We have been passively beaten for so long, should we also take the opportunity to transfer some of the elite? Launch a counterattack against the old Maozi in front of you. Let them know that our Chinese army can not only defend, but also attack......"

"Launch a counterattack against Lao Maozi...."Liu Hua's face directly showed a hint of mockery.

looked at the puzzled people in front of them. was not polite, and directly opened his mouth and asked: "Comrades, do you know the strength and equipment of Lao Maozi's Far Eastern Army on the other side... To tell you the truth, it depends on the strength and equipment of Lao Maozi who has arrived at the battlefield. We have rushed to the battlefield with the two main forces, and now we are rushing forward, and we will not be able to achieve any results at all, except to send them to death..."

"More than 3,000 tanks of various types, more than 3,000 large-caliber guns, plus a steady stream of aviation divisions stationed at the temporary airfield of Lao Maozi....of course. There is also one most important one, that is, more than half a million Lao Maozi infantry. With so many troops and heavy equipment, can our two infantry corps shake it? ”

"Ah....so many troops. Does Lao Maozi want to occupy our whole of China..."Just facing Lao Maozi as a tank division. Under the attack of the two heavy artillery brigades, their own 46th Army was almost wiped out. If so many troops and heavy equipment. All of them launched an attack on themselves, then their own 46th Army....No, how many 46th Army can block the offensive of Lao Maozi's Far Eastern Army? Several people gasped directly and asked with shocked faces.

"Occupy the whole of China... Little Japan couldn't do it back then, let alone today's old Maozi....comrades, the specific course of the campaign, due to reasons of secrecy, is not convenient to disclose to you for the time being. However, I can tell you for sure that in this decisive battle, the ultimate goal of our Chinese army is not to defeat the old Maozi Far Eastern Army in front of them, but to completely annihilate them and deal a fatal blow to Soviet Moscow..."Liu Hua said.

Seeing the shocked crowd, Liu Hua did not hesitate and continued to speak: "Of course, if you want to completely annihilate these more than 500,000 old Maozi elites, it will definitely not be possible in a short period of time. Therefore, I have only one request for you, that is, to lead the troops, to hold this position to the death, and attract more than 500,000 elites of Lao Maozi here..."

"During the whole battle, if I want troops, I will give troops, and if I want artillery, I will give artillery, and if I want planes, I will also give planes....Although Lao Maozi has more than 500,000 expeditionary troops behind him as support. However, behind us, there are also millions of troops and tens of thousands of ordinary people as support. Everyone told me if they had the confidence to complete this task...."

"Please rest assured commander-in-chief, the people are in the position...."The commanders of the main forces who arrived in advance did not hesitate at all, and stood up directly from their seats, confidently assured.

At the same time, the Soviet Far East Army barracks, less than 15 kilometers from the Chinese blocking position, was experiencing a huge transfer of power and restless turmoil.

The 30,000-strong army that attacked again also did not escape the doom of destruction.

Receiving this result, as the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Far Eastern Army for several years, General Benodov, his face turned pale. Because he knew that the concealment of military information after the defeat of the first sortie had already aroused the dissatisfaction of General Secretary Stalin in Moscow. Now, coupled with this defeat, General Secretary Stalin, who was already dissatisfied and suspicious of himself, will definitely remove himself from the post of commander-in-chief.

However, what he did not expect was that just the fact that he concealed and did not report the military situation, so that the entire Soviet government was attacked by public opinion around the world, and even military threats, had already made the angry General Secretary Stalin no longer trust him, and directly removed him from the post of commander-in-chief in the Politburo.

It's just that, in order to avoid the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Far Eastern Army falling into a chaotic situation without a commander-in-chief, this news was not distributed through the radio. Rather, it was handed over to the new commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Army, Colonel-General Gorodovikov, who personally took it to the camp of the expeditionary forces, to Admiral Benodov......

At the same time that General Benodov received the news of the defeat at the front, the new commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Army, Colonel-General Gorodovikov, happened to appear at the mouth of the Commander-in-Chief with several old Maozi gendarmes of the Central Political Security Bureau...

"Who are you and why did you suddenly break in......" General Benodov, who was thinking about how to report the battle to Moscow, suddenly saw several people who broke into his headquarters. didn't think about it, frowned directly, and asked.

However, when I saw that I was at the forefront, I was carrying the rank of general like myself on my shoulders. Behind the admiral, there were several gendarmes of the Security Bureau, who had the title of devil in the Soviet Union. The anger that had just shrouded his face disappeared immediately, and in his place, his face turned pale.

As long as it is a Soviet officer who has experienced World War II, when it comes to the Soviet Security Service, none of them will change color. Because, on the eve of World War II, in the midst of the purge, which can almost be called a catastrophe, countless officers of the Soviet Red Army, and even those marshals. After being taken away by these DOF gendarmes, he never appeared again.

These DJD gendarmes are now present in their headquarters and are directly led by a general. One can imagine who these gendarmes were targeted.

However, as a high-ranking general who commands an army of hundreds of thousands, even if he has realized his final result. Admiral Benodov was still not frightened, he forced his almost collapsed body, and asked Admiral Gorodovikov, who he did not know in front of him: "Comrade Admiral, who are you?" ”

"Are you Admiral Benodov of the Far Eastern Army?" Gorodovikov did not give an answer, but frowned and asked rhetorically.

"I am the Commander-in-Chief of the Far Eastern Army, Benodov, may I ask who Comrade General is?" In the face of the other party's rhetorical question, the worried look on Admiral Benodov's face became even stronger, and with the last trace of expectation, he opened his mouth and asked rhetorically.

"Hello, Comrade Benodov, I'm Gorodovikov. Entrusted by General Secretary Stalin in Moscow and the Politburo, I came to take over the post of commander-in-chief of the Soviet Far East Army.

After taking over the appointment and dismissal documents of General Gorodovikov, completely ending his military career and, more likely, ending his life. Admiral Benodov, with a dead face, was silent for two minutes before he lowered his head and admitted this fact.

Putting away the appointment and dismissal papers, he saw the security bureau gendarmes who were already standing on either side of him. Admiral Benodov's face showed a thick wry smile. Facing General Gorodovikov in front of him, he said helplessly.

"Comrade Gorodovikov, welcome. I hope that hundreds of thousands of officers and men of the Soviet Far East Army will be able to achieve greater results under your leadership... I know how Comrade Gorodoviv needs me to cooperate, you can rest assured, I will definitely meet all your requirements......" Since he has lost his military power, General Benodov will certainly not be stupid enough to offend the rising star in the army in front of him, and said with a cooperative face.

Sure enough, as soon as Admiral Benodov's words fell, a smile of surprise appeared on Admiral Gorodovikov's face.

After all, the commander-in-chief is an outsider, and without the support of the former commander-in-chief, even with the order of the general secretary, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Far Eastern Army when the emperor is far away.

Faced with the other party's sincere and helpless expression, Admiral Gorodovich did not hesitate and directly stated his current worries and requirements.

However, what Gorodoviv did not expect was that no matter where they were, factional strife would always exist. In the face of him, an outsider, although most of the senior officers, due to the orders of the former commander-in-chief and General Secretary Stalin in Moscow, were very respectful on the surface. However, what is in their hearts is known only to them...
