"Woo" The sharp sound of the horn stirred, and the mountains responded, and the momentum was magnificent.

Zhangbei is the northwest of Zhangjiakou, a military powerhouse, a place where soldiers have fought for since ancient times, and it is also a strategic point to defend Beijing and Tianjin.

China's Mongol army was reorganized during the gradual withdrawal of troops after the defeat of Yueben, with three armies and nine divisions, close to 130,000 troops, according to the normal establishment of an army should be close to 50,000 people, but the Mongol group army was different, because each army formed a cavalry division after pacifying the Majia Army in the northwest. The cavalry division has a special establishment, with three cavalry regiments and a cavalry battalion directly under the division headquarters, not five infantry regiments, and each cavalry regiment has only more than 2,000 people, and one cavalry division is six or seven thousand people.

The Mongolian desert is thousands of miles away, and the steppes are vast, which is most suitable for cavalry galloping. And these peoples on the steppe come and go like the wind, if there is no cavalry, they are even more powerless to suppress, and they may not even be able to find people, so what about peace talks and counterinsurgency suppression? In this era, the most powerful weapon against cavalry is also cavalry.

The sound of the assembly horn shook the entire barracks like thunder, and except for the sentry posts, almost all the officers and men immediately put down everything and rushed to the school field to assemble as quickly as possible. The troops who have experienced the war can realize the importance of the rallying cry more deeply than anyone else, and time is of the essence.

And at this time, the officers above the division level were already in the headquarters of the group army.

"The commander-in-chief of the Ministry of National Defense personally issued an instruction: Our Mongolian army group will immediately enter Mongolia and put down the rebellion."

Wu Peifu's department was also part of the Mongolian Group Army, and in the face of such a sudden order, he was a little caught off guard, and couldn't help but say: "Commander, is this too hasty?" ”

"'Always ready', is it for nothing?" Li Wushuang, commander of the Mongolian Group Army, glanced at Wu Peifu expressionlessly, and his tone was indifferent and there was no room for maneuvering, "I don't care what reason you have, raising troops for a thousand years and using troops for a while, if you delay the military plane, I will send you to a military court." "Say goodbye and leave.

Wu Peifu almost didn't vomit blood, but he didn't dare to be the slightest slack, because he knew that Li Bufan's descendants were absolutely extremely strict officers, and when the troops were reorganized, they didn't know how many officers they had brushed down, and any unqualified pleas were useless. There is not much left after the forcible force suppression, and it is so iron-blooded and cold-blooded. And the person who gave the order was Li Wushuang.

Wu Peifu's chief of staff, Zhang Zuomin, said with an ugly face: "The military seat, that is, is today." The current weather is still about minus 5 degrees, and in such a short period of time, it may be difficult for the troops to prepare properly. In the event of a sudden change in the weather, it is not known how many non-combat attrition of the Brethren there were. ”

Wu Peifu's face turned blue and shouted angrily: "What sudden change in the weather, this is not a reason. If you pull it out today, you must pull it out, even if you have to move the knives in the sky. Have all the military books been read in the dog's belly? Do I want to teach you what it means to be a military order? ”

"Yes!" Zhang Zuomin responded with a somewhat disgraced face. In fact, not only Zhang Zuomin, but all Beiyang officers, despite their experience and several months of reorganization and training, still cannot adapt to the various regulations of the National Defense Force and the military discipline of the National Defense Force, which is a world away from their warlord era.

Wu Peifu shouted, but his eyes looked at Li Wushuang, who had not yet walked out of the headquarters.

Li Wushuang suddenly stopped his figure and said without looking back: "The weather is fine today and tomorrow, the northwest wind is 3-5, and there will be no snow and rain in the next three days." After saying that, he walked out of the headquarters.

Wu Peifu, Zhang Zuomin, and other senior officers in the headquarters all breathed a sigh of relief, of course, those officers of Li Bufan's descendants were still meticulously prepared, as if they hadn't heard it, and they didn't react at all, and this psychological quality made Wu Peifu secretly shocked.

"I'm grass, who are these people?" Wu Peifu and some Beiyang officers muttered in their hearts, of course, they also understood that if they wanted to gain a foothold in the Wehrmacht, they must adapt to modern military discipline, otherwise they would only be eliminated.

The military order was like a mountain, and the army of more than 100,000 was quickly mobilized, and the entire garrison was busy with people neighing on their horses.

"Commander-in-chief, the troops are deployed." Adjutant Li Hengshan handed a telegram to Li Bufan.

Li Bufan nodded, read the telegram and put it aside, his eyes still staring at the sand table.

"Commander-in-Chief!" Li Huashan, chief of staff, said briskly, "The air force has already taken off, and in half an hour it will bombard the rebel garrison opposite Erenhot, and after the bombing, the troops stationed again will attack the enemy at the first opportunity." ”

Wu Enemy's army division was taken aback next to him and said, "Boss, are you going to come directly?" ”

Li Bufan sneered: "Since you dare to betray, you must pay the price." ”

Wu Di shook his head and said, "Boss, what you said is right. However, I believe that there is a distinction between internal and external military operations. ”

Li Bufan said: "I understand what you mean, we are also trying to make an example of chickens and monkeys, and let those with ulterior motives know that don't touch the bottom line of the country, that is the thunder pool, and the result will make him crushed and unbearable." Now the punishment is already very light, and if it is replaced by a feudal dynasty, such a betrayal, the participants will all be exterminated. ”

Wu Di opened his mouth, not knowing how to refute. They were born in different eras, the difference in concept is huge, in this kind of feudal remnant era, it is not unacceptable to raid the family and destroy the door, and the pursuit of personal legal responsibility in later generations, that is a world of difference.

"Over the years, enough civil wars have been fought, and I don't want to see this happen to the next generation. Don't forget, troubled times must be re-enacted. ”

"Troubled times use heavy classics" Wu Di tasted this sentence, only feeling that the corners of his mouth were full of bitterness. He suddenly felt that this era of starvation was completely different from the era in which beggars would be scolded to the head of dogs at the sight of beggars, and that what was unreasonable or even unacceptable in later generations was sometimes taken for granted in this era

"Boom" The dense group of planes in the sky launched an intensive bombardment of the Mongolian rebels on the border.

The barracks, garrisons, and fortifications were instantly reduced to ruins, and countless rebels were scattered with flesh and blood.

Shachev, a military adviser in the rebel army, panicked out of the headquarters and saw dozens of planes in the sky forming a group of crazy poisonous Mongol troops to carry out a devastating bombing, the violent explosion caused the whole land to tremble, the monstrous flames devoured life, and the panic in his heart almost overwhelmed him.

"Quick! Telegram to Moscow"

The sound of the "Dididi" telegram sounded in the dark night in the Kremlin, and it was very clear in the silence.

Immediately afterwards, the Kremlin lights were quickly turned on, and the panicked footsteps were particularly clear in the silence of the night, which was also terrifying. The territory of Soviet Russia is vast, the span from east to west is huge, and there is a huge time difference, for which the political axe department has people on night duty all year round, especially during the sudden situation in the Far East.

Stalin was awakened by a quick knock on the door, which annoyed him greatly: "What's the matter? Can't we talk about it tomorrow? ”

Yagoda said anxiously outside the door: "Comrade Stalin, the Chinese have launched an attack on Mongolia. ”

"What?" When Stalin heard the news, his original drowsiness was thrown out of the clouds in an instant, and he quickly got up, called Yakoda in, and with the help of Yakoda, quickly got dressed, and asked: "When did it happen?" ”

Yagoda said: "Just now, ten minutes ago. ”

Stalin cursed "damn it" and quickly walked to the office, asking as he went, "How could such a thing happen?" Britain and France have already been enraged, and the British side even sent the main fleet of the navy to the east, and China actually attacked Mongolia at this time? ”

"Yes, Comrade Stalin." Yagoda followed Stalin closely and said hurriedly, "None of us thought of it. However, Mongolia is still nominally Chinese territory, and its establishment is not internationally recognized. It is even more impossible for the People's Army, with a few divisions of the Mongols, to withstand the elite Chinese troops, and if we do not help them, they will be destroyed at any time. ”

Entering the office, Yagoda quickly opened the map, pointed to the border in the Erenhot area and said, "This is it." ”

Stalin stared at the map, his face was cloudy, and he gritted his teeth half-loudly: "If we intervene, the Chinese will undoubtedly go to war with us, and the imperialist powers such as Britain, France, and the United States will definitely gloat there, and even the fleet sent by Britain to the Far East will be withdrawn, but as an ally of the 'Entente' at the same time as the Chinese, he will express his support for the Chinese in counterinsurgency and support the Chinese in recovering lost territory." ”

Yagoda said heavily: "Comrade Stalin is wise, if this is really the case, then the pressure on our Soviets will be too great. ”

Stalin gritted his teeth and said: "So we can't clash with the Chinese now, otherwise the Chinese will definitely press their elite main forces to the north." Damn the Chinese, they have maintained a large army at the moment, just to fully grasp the initiative in the situation in the Far East. ”

"Initiative?" Yagoda was surprised.

Stalin said with some bitterness: "Of course. Five million Army, who will compete in the Far East? The strong military power has allowed the Chinese to move from south to north in dealing with the situation in the Far East. No one wants to fight with China, which has such a huge military force, especially since China has no shortage of additional troops. ”

Yagoda said: "Then what should we do? ”

The corners of Stalin's mouth twitched, and he sighed: "We are not afraid to fight with the Chinese, we are not afraid of any enemy, but we cannot foolishly fall into the trap of imperialism." A telegram was sent to Comrade Molov in Nanjing, asking him to further communicate with the Chinese political axe and ease the situation. He has always been tough and had to compromise temporarily at this time, but making such a decision is like a knife
