Chapter 1819 Rescue Plan

On the way back to Nanhua, An Yi set out from the Azores at 9 a.m. on May 28 and arrived in Mumbai on the subcontinent that night, rested overnight at the President's Palace in Mumbai, and returned to Xinjing with his two brides on the morning of 29 May. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Of course, An Yi's whereabouts are strictly kept secret to the outside world, and even the local media in South China do not know that An Yi has returned to the capital of the Republic.

The Japanese naval and air base on the island of Socotra off the coast of Yemen was devastated the day after the no-fly zone was established.

Thousands of bombers, under the cover of hundreds of fighter jets, attacked three air bases on the island in a sea of airstrikes, and dropped napalm bombs on all suspicious locations marked on the map, causing the island, known as the "Galapagos of the Indian Ocean", which retains a large number of unique species of flora and fauna, to burn for two weeks before the downpour brought by the tropical storm was gradually extinguished.

On the third day after An Yi returned to Xinjing, the South China government announced that An Yi had returned to Xinjing safely, so the "no-fly zones" set up in the airspace of North Africa, the Middle East, and the Red Sea were immediately canceled, and the fighting in these areas had nothing to do with the South China government and army.

Of course, the advent of this proclamation also meant that the Allied forces encircled in the Sinai Peninsula were all withdrawn, and nearly 200,000 people were withdrawn to East Africa, where they joined up with the British forces in the former North Africa and confronted the Kordofan Plateau in central Sudan and the hilly and mountainous areas of Abyssinia.

In the meantime, a sensational event occurred.

On 3 June, at Mussolini's strong request, Rommel sent two divisions of the Wehrmacht and the Italian divisions of Venice, Milan, Turin, and Genoa to form the East African Corps.

This fully motorized corps, which encountered little resistance along the way, marched nearly 80 kilometers a day, and after half a month, it had traveled more than 1,200 kilometers south.

The purpose of this legion was to make a circuitous detour through the primeval jungle near the Grand Canyon in East Africa, through the upper basin of the Nile in southern Sudan, to Abyssinia, which had been captured by the British. No one expected that a devastating catastrophe would suddenly befall this Axis force.

It was the second day after entering the primeval jungle, and as fuel and food had run out, the troops had to stop and wait for supplies from the rear.

The commander of the unit was Lieutenant General Eberhard of the Wehrmacht. Lantz decided to send an elite army through the primeval jungle and suddenly appeared in front of the British army in a surprise posture.

However, the majority of the staff were resolutely opposed, on the grounds that no one dared to set foot in the primeval jungles of Africa in the past, and the jungles were full of snakes and ants, infested with wild beasts, like a huge trap, and sending troops into it was tantamount to killing oneself.

But Eberhard. Lieutenant General Lantz refused to believe it, believing that nothing could hinder the advance of the troops in the face of the invincible German army, and that this advance force could also open a large road in the jungle in advance to facilitate the passage of the main force, so he undoubtedly drew the elite from the divisions, organized it into a forward regiment, and set out on the road to Abyssinia.

The primeval jungles of East Africa are truly terrifying, and in just four days, hundreds of soldiers of the Forward Regiment were killed or wounded by poisonous snakes, scorpions, spiders and wild beasts, thanks to adequate preparation and African indigenous guides, otherwise the losses would have been even greater.

Twelve African guides instructed the soldiers to apply a very smelling liquid that resembled soup to all exposed skin surfaces of their bodies, and repeatedly warned the soldiers that if the beasts did not take the initiative to attack, it was best not to shoot rashly, so as not to provoke them.

That night, while the troops were camping in the dense forest, a mighty ant colony made a long journey towards the Grand Canyon of East Africa in the west, and the camp of the German forward regiment was on the way to the ant colony.

The earliest warning signals were triggered by the terrifying howls of the soldiers in charge of the guard on the right flank of the troops' camp, followed by the terrible howls of dozens of hundreds of soldiers at the same time. The cry was both miserable and terrifying, and it was fundamentally the kind of heartfelt and heart-rending cry of despair.

When the commander of this unit hurried out of his tent, he saw through the searchlight that the ground of the jungle was covered with a thick layer of black-brown ants, and there was no end in sight.

The ant colony pushed forward like a tidal wave at a speed that humans had no time to react, drowning everything it touched.

The ant colony was overwhelming, crawling all over the bodies of the officers and soldiers, and in one after another terrible screams, the struggling humans quickly turned into white bones.

When the commander of the East African Corps, Eberhard. When Lieutenant General Lantz lost contact with the forward regiment and sent another unit deep into the jungle to search, he finally saw in horror the scene on the edge of an unknown lake: on the ground about two or three square kilometers west of the lake, a pair of human skeletons, some intact and some scattered, could be seen in shock. Not only skin and flesh, but also hair, clothing, and other items with fiber and protein, without exception, there is nothing left. And near the skeleton, dozens of off-road vehicles, weapons, watches, metal buttons, glasses, etc. are intact.

After the officers and soldiers collected, according to the calculation of skeletons, a total of 987 bodies are now left, and of the 1,127 people who set off, only 60 escaped, and 80 people were reduced before that.

At the scene, some huge ant corpses were also collected, and the situation was extremely terrifying.

Frightened by this, the East African Corps held fast in the upper Nile basin of South Sudan, and in addition to sending alert troops from afar to prevent ant colony raids, it also passed the news to the army group headquarters in Cairo, and then Field Marshal Rommel, the commander of the German Mediterranean cluster, transmitted the news back to Germany, causing a sense of foreboding in Hitler's heart, who was carefully preparing the Barbarossa plan.

Back to business, after An Yi returned to Xinjing, he stayed in Xiaonanhai Zhizheng Hall, and it was already half a month later when all the official affairs that had been backlogged for three months were completed.

In this half a month, Lin Xiaotong and Lin Xiaoran sisters got along very happily with Ou Chuer and Feng Jieyun, and under the leadership of An Yi, they went to meet with Lao Shoudao and the Taoist leaders of Wanshou Palace, and met with the party, military, political officials and cadres in charge of the economy of the group.

June 16, Xiaonanhai Xuanwu Building Conference Room.

The four deputy chiefs of the General Staff, Zhao Rui, Yang Fei, Yang Jie, and Zhao Dongquan, Deng Bin, president of the National Defense University, Zhan Dao, director of the General Political Department, Chang Baofang, director of the General Logistics Department, Du Yi, minister of national security, Liu Qing, director of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff Department, and Shen Ziling, director of the Operations Department, and other generals and colonels of the base camp gathered together.

An Yi put down the telegram in his hand, glanced at the generals, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"Now you can breathe a sigh of relief...... The latest information was sent by the nails, and the top decision-making level of the Nazis held a military mobilization meeting yesterday, and it turned out that the military mobilization of Germany was not aimed at us, but to carry out the 'Barbarossa battle plan' drawn up by Hitler and members of his high command. A few days ago, the combat order has been issued to the army groups, group armies, corps and division headquarters, the specific combat date is the 23rd, that day is Sunday, the officers and soldiers of the Western Front of the Soviet Army will be in a state of rotation, in addition, that day is the second day after the summer solstice, the days are long and the nights are short, in the first days of the campaign, the German *** team can fight for almost 18 hours a day! ”

Yang Fei asked eagerly: "So, the newly formed army group in Turkey is heading for the Baku oil field of the Soviet Union?" ”

"Yes!"

An Yi nodded affirmatively: "According to the 'Barbarossa Operation Plan', this army group will occupy the Baku oil field area within a month after the start of the war. The city of Baku is only about 600 kilometers from the Turkish border, but it will be difficult to break through quickly, given the mountainous and hilly terrain near the border, and the Armenian plateau and the Lesser Caucasus Mountains, which act as a natural barrier to protect the territory of the Soviet Union.

"According to the information fed back by the 'nail', this time the German-Turkish cluster is equipped with elite mountain troops, and the Turkish army assisting on the side is also good at fighting mountain fortifications, supplemented by some mechanized troops, once the Soviet defense line is torn apart, then the war will soon spread to the western Caspian Sea in the Hikora steppe and the Kulin lowland area, forming a comprehensive breakthrough...... The Germans were bound to occupy the Baku oil fields, and Stalin's days were no better! ”

"It's not a good time!"

Zhao Rui smiled slightly: "It is estimated that they are already anxious now...... Although the Soviets still hold the railway and road bridge between Zelenodorsk and Kozlovka west of Kazan, and maintain contact with the rear through the Volga River and the coastal road, it is only a matter of time before they are finally encircled under the wave after wave of offensive by the Far Eastern Army.

Because Zhukov failed Stalin's expectations, the famous Soviet general, who replaced Shaposhnikov as chief of the General Staff of the Red Army and won the Battle of Kirov and was promoted to marshal, was transferred to the reserve front, and the deputy chief of the General Staff Vasilevsky was appointed commander-in-chief of the war on the Eastern Front, and the former chief of staff Shaposhnikov was reinstated. However, if the battle is like this, it will be difficult for the gods to be saved, and if the Western Front and the Southern Front fight again, Stalin estimates that he will have the mind to seek death! ”

Yang Jie had been silent all the time, and when he heard this, he suddenly asked:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a question, the Soviet Union and the Far Eastern republics were originally the same country, with the same doctrine and the same political and economic system. Previously, because of Stalin's policy of purge, if faced with foreign aggression, would the two countries put aside their prejudices and reconcile? ”

Yang Jie's question made the conference room fall silent for a moment.

After a while, Zhan Zhi asked a little strangely, "Chief of Staff Gengguang, why do you have such a problem?" Didn't Stalin speak harshly of the people of the Far Eastern Republic? Even such despicable means as assassination have been used, and now Kazan is in such a battlefield situation, where can peace be said and made peace? ”

"That's right!"

Deng Bin was also a little disapproving: "If you choose to surrender on this, not to mention whether Blyukher, Bukharin and Rykov died in vain, which of those people in the top echelons of the Far Eastern Republic is not on Stalin's must-kill list?" Don't they think about themselves and their families?

"Moreover, since the German offensive on the Western Front naturally reduced the pressure on the Far Eastern Army, would they not have taken advantage of this opportunity to expand their forces to the west? After taking Moscow, the Far Eastern republics will integrate the country's forces, unify their ideological understanding, and then wait for the opportunity to start a decisive battle with Hitler, I think this possibility is very large! ”

There was a lot of gossip in the conference room, and they unanimously spoke out against it.

Seeing Yang Jie smiling and not speaking, looking unfazed, An Yi's heart sank.

Whether it was before or now, An Yi has seen too many examples of revolutionaries of the older generation, taking the suppression of rebellion in the Soviet area as an example, many outstanding military commanders were held at night to criticize and fight, and their lives were threatened at any time, and when they needed someone to lead troops to fight during the day, they were still meticulous, sacrificed their lives and forgot their lives to devote themselves wholeheartedly, and consciously reported to the anti-rebellion committee after winning the battle.

The top brass of the Far Eastern Republics, most of whom were old Red Army members who fought the world with Ulyanov, would never have watched the Soviet Union fall apart and eventually go to ruin under the German invasion. If the war between the Soviet Union and the Far Eastern Republics was a fraternal fight, and the regime and color of the country would not change regardless of who won or lost, then German aggression could not only overthrow the Soviet power, but even affect the survival of the entire Slavic nation. In such a situation, no one knows which revolutionaries of the older generation will make what choice!

After listening carefully to the opinions for a while, the worry in An Yi's heart not only did not decrease, but increased, and there was no more to gain from further discussion, so he waved his hand decisively, and only after everyone quieted down did he say his opinion:

"I don't think Geng Guang's vision is unfounded...... We cannot ignore people's spiritual beliefs, just as we do not hesitate to shed our blood for the rise of the country and the nation, and those Bolsheviks may not necessarily make the choice of sacrificing their small family to care for everyone for the sake of their own ideals and beliefs! So we have to be prepared for both......"

Speaking of this, An Yi stood up and paced back and forth, and after a while, turned his head to look at Zhao Rui:

"Xiangyun, it looks like you're going to move...... At present, in Central Asia, a tank army group under the command of Xiao Wutong and three motorized infantry armies belonging to the Northern Military District are undertaking our defense tasks in the Urals and along the Caspian Sea. Of course, such a force is still a little weak to defend thousands of kilometers of border line, but I think the frame of the Central Asian Front can be set up first, with you as the commander and Xiao Wu as your assistant, and I will transfer troops one after another to enrich the strength of the front army.

"As soon as the Far Eastern republics choose to abandon what they are persistently pursuing for the sake of ideals and doctrines, Stalin will inevitably transfer the Far Eastern Army to fight the Germans on the Western Front, and the Soviet Army will replace the Far Eastern Army and enter the Urals and Siberia, and the defensive pressure on the front army led by you will increase sharply!

"Of course, against the backdrop of the German invasion, Stalin would never have risked fighting on two fronts and getting into trouble with us again, but we must prevent the Soviet Union from settling accounts after the end of the war. Therefore, on the basis of building a strong border defense barrier, it is necessary to deploy heavy troops at key positions. With the current level of railway construction, most areas only need to hold on for a week or two, and they can be supported by the surrounding troops, forming a local superior force and dealing a devastating blow to the invading enemy! ”

Zhao Rui stood up in surprise. He knew that since An Yi had made a decision, the position of the commander of his front army would be decided! After so many years of intelligence work, after returning to the embrace of the collective, not only was he not disliked, but continued to give enough trust, this kind of kindness made his eyes red, and he couldn't help but salute An Yi with a solemn military salute.

An Yi nodded, motioned for him to sit down, and then said to Shen Ziling, head of the Operations Department of the General Staff:

"Ziling, in the past two years, you have been in charge of the work of the General Staff Operations Department, and your achievements are obvious to all. However, if you are confined to this position and hinder your progress, I can't bear it! In this way, you will be promoted to the first level, go to the Central Asian Front Army as the chief of staff, help Zhao Rui take care of the affairs of the front army, and use one to two years to build the front army for me, and in the future Siberian war, you will have to transfer troops from your military region to the east, don't let me down! ”

Shen Ziling was also surprised and delighted, and saluted An Yi excitedly.

Although there is no danger in sitting in the office, there is not much opportunity to establish meritorious service, and it is extremely difficult to be promoted under the condition that An Jiajun pays attention to military merits. Liu Yu, former director of the Operations Department of the General Staff, was a second lieutenant at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, and in the North China War of Resistance and the Battle of Songhu, he repeatedly made strange plans and was promoted to major all the way. Later, he was transferred to the Northern Military Region, and after the Central Asian War and the subsequent Battle of Siberia, in just over three years, he is now the chief of staff of the major general of the group army, and his military rank is actually the same level as Shen Ziling. Now I have the opportunity to go down and lead the troops, and once the war starts, the channel for ascent will be much larger, and I will be able to be promoted to general before the end of the war.

Yang reminded in his words: "The chances of the Far Eastern Republic falling to the Soviet Union are between five and five. In order to prevent this from becoming a prophecy, we must build a migration route in the Urals and Siberia in advance. Not everyone has the courage to face Stalin's ***, many people who have been politically persecuted will definitely choose to flee the republics of the Far East, which are about to be abolished, and all we need to do is to do our best to save the lives of this part of the people!

"Ladies and gentlemen, after more than two years of continuous immigration, the Chinese population in the areas under our jurisdiction has reached nearly 200 million, of course, this is after the *** nationality, Manchu, Korean, Jing, Dai and other ethnic groups are classified as Chinese statistics, and there are about 60 million people of other ethnic groups, including 10 million immigrants from Belarusian, French, Jewish, Slavic, Australian and other European countries, more than 6 million ethnic minorities in Central Asia, West Asia, Siberia and other regions, and more than 41 million Indians.

"Of course, according to the plan, most Indians will move into the newly established princely states of India in the subcontinent, and some Jews will also move to the Jewish states established in the Middle East after the war, so that our Chinese population will account for more than 90 percent of the total population, and as domestic immigration continues, this number will continue to increase! Therefore, on the basis of ensuring the dominance of the Chinese community, we are fully capable of accepting immigrants from the Far Eastern Republics. ”

An Yi had a flash of inspiration: "Not only for the Far Eastern Republics, but also from the Caucasus and Ukraine, we can bring in a large number of young women......"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes, An Yi hurriedly explained:

"Don't get me wrong, it's not that I like Caucasian women, it's a means of humane salvation...... According to the intelligence of the 'nails', Hitler led the development of an 'Eastern Plan', the purpose of which was to exterminate the Slavic peoples, especially Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, as well as Jews and other nationalities.

"At a meeting of the Nazi Party leaders yesterday, Hitler openly declared: 'In order to expand the living space of the Germanic peoples, we must systematically exterminate the population of the Soviet land - this is part of our vocation. It should be borne in mind that in this country that we occupy, human life has no value, and we need to develop technologies for the extermination of the population. ’

To this end, the German General Staff, the SS, and the secret police began to work on the development of a program of atrocities to be implemented in the occupied territories of the Soviet Union in the future. According to these plans and programmes, 120 million to 140 million people were to be killed over the next twenty years, and finally 'to eliminate Russia's existential potential'. In order to accomplish this terrible mission, Hitler instructed the SS to form a second unit dedicated to the massacre of prisoners and civilians......"

"The Germans are crazy!"

Chang Baofang, who had been silent before, almost subconsciously said: "A government with the purpose of killing people is destined to be spurned by the world, and it is bound to not last long!" Fortunately, we are not allies with such a country, otherwise how can we get by with our conscience? This is a naked crime against humanity! ”

"Is the news true?"

Zhao Dongquan, who has always had a good impression of Germany, asked with some doubts: "I have never heard of such a sensational massacre when Germany invaded Poland, France, the Balkans and the Middle East before!" Why was Dudu so harsh on the Slavs? You can't be mistaken, right? ”

"Intelligence from 'nails' has never gone wrong!"

An Yi said solemnly: "As far as I know, in the world planned by Hitler, the Nordic and Germanic races are the most noble, and they can be compared with the Anglo. The Saxons, to a lesser inferiority are the Gauls, Franks, Catalans and other white races of Western and Southern Europe, and the worst are the Slavs. Hitler believed that the Slavs, like the Jews, belonged to the inferior race of the white race, representing ignorance and barbarism, and Hitler always called the Slavs the hemorrhoids of Europe, which shows his hatred for the Slavs!

"In Hitler's eyes, the lands of Ukraine and Crimea could be planted whatever they wanted, and whatever they planted had a good harvest, and such fertile land had to be controlled by the Germanic people, so it was very necessary to remove the indigenous people from these lands. With so many reasons, isn't it obvious what Hitler wanted to do? ”

Everyone's hearts were cold, and Deng Bin shook his head: "Only a madman would do that!" I'm sure that as long as Germany dares to carry out a massacre in the occupied territories, defeat is not far off! ”

"That's right!"

An Yi nodded: "This is also an important reason why we are not allied with Germany, who wants to be with a madman?" However, while we have not torn each other's skins, we can save the suffering Belarusians and Ukrainians as much as possible! I am ready to rescue the women and children who are most vulnerable to war, just like the Jews are saved, firstly, we can introduce a large number of young women of appropriate age to meet the needs of many of our unmarried male compatriots, secondly, we can increase the labor force, textile factories, garment factories, instrument factories and other enterprises are in need of female workers, third, I heard that Ukraine and Belarus are places where beautiful women are produced, I think our next generation, I am afraid that many handsome guys and beauties will be born! ”

There was a burst of laughter in the conference room, and Chang Baofang said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Xia Jian's grandson, it's best to be like this, maybe there will be another little wife in the family, haha!" ”

An Yi smiled faintly and said: "As long as Lang is a concubine, I personally have no objection to taking a concubine, but if anyone bullies men and women, don't blame me for being ruthless in military law!" By the way, let me remind you: the information provided by the 'nail' is top secret, and the security level of the front-line troops not only cannot be lowered, but must be raised by another level, making it look like they are preparing for war with all their might. We will not be able to settle down until Germany really attacks the Soviet Union! In addition, no matter where the German army finally attacked, the three headquarters must come up with a corresponding plan, and not wait until the end of the matter to be caught off guard! Alright, let's adjourn! ”

"Yes!"

All the generals stood up, saluted An Yi respectfully, and left one after another.
