Chapter 134: The Japanese Army Suffered from the Enemy on the Belly and Back
Just when Su Dao began to arrange combat missions, in the command of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East, Zhukov also received an order from Moscow. Stalin was outraged by the actions of the Kwantung Army, and at the same time ordered Zhukov that he must teach the Kwantung Army a harsh lesson in a short time to ensure that in the coming years, the Kwantung Army would not dare to provoke any conflict in the border areas.
In fact, Stalin's order was also taken into account the tense situation in Europe, and Germany was frantically expanding its armaments at this time, causing European countries to follow suit the expansion of armaments, so that the whole of Europe was forced to fall into a bad circle. Although the Soviet Union was in the northernmost part, they had not forgotten the lessons of World War I, so while Germany was expanding its army, the Soviet Union was also preparing intensively.
The Soviet Union, which was far inferior to the European countries in terms of industrialization and various levels, was a little struggling in armaments, and in addition to the number of troops, it seemed that all aspects were left far behind by the European countries, and at this time Stalin was racking his brains to think about how to solve this dilemma, but at this time the news of the deterioration of the situation in the Far East came.
It is rumored that Germany has been looking for an ally in the Far East as a way to defuse German pressure in Europe. At first, China was chosen, but due to the continuous civil war, China's national strength has basically stagnated for decades, and industrial armaments and so on are in a backward state, even if Germany has gone through several years of assistance, from armaments to military training, these aspects have the shadow of the Germans.
However, with the invasion of Yueben, the Germans saw another ally, although the territory of Yue himself is small, and the population cannot be compared with that of China, which has a population of 40,000, but he can defeat Huaxia one after another, and this alone is enough for them to enter the eyes of the Germans.
It was only later, for unknown reasons, that the observation mission sent by Germany to Yuben was suddenly withdrawn, and then Germany continued to increase its assistance to Huaxia, which also indirectly indicated the position of the Germans, who seemed to want to abandon Yuben and re-choose Huaxia as their ally.
As a result, Stalin thought of several major battles in China in recent years, coupled with the actions of the Germans, which undoubtedly reminded him that he seemed to be protesting against the choice of the Germans, and at the same time wanted to tell the Germans through his own efforts that the choice of the book was the best result.
The whole world is clear what the purpose of the Germans looking for allies in the Far East is, and they undoubtedly hope that their allies in the Far East can directly send troops to threaten the Far East of the Soviet Union, forcing the Soviet Union to commit troops in the Far East, and at the same time putting the Soviet Union in a dilemma of fighting on two fronts. Since the eastern and western fronts are far apart, it is simply impossible for the two sides to help each other, so if Germany wants to attack the Soviet Union at that time, whether the Soviet Union can resist on two fronts is really another matter.
Every time he thought of this, Stalin's heart exuded a cold chill, and the Chinese people did not pay much attention to it, a country that could not even beat the book was not qualified to enter Stalin's eyes at all.
Although the Russo-Russian War was the defeat of the Soviet Union, the industry at that time was still generally in a backward state, after these years of development, the industrial system of the Soviet Union has long been unable to be compared with the Soviet Union, just look at the weapons and equipment of the Soviet Union, so now if the level is divided according to Stalin's ideas, European countries are calculated according to the A level, then the Soviet Union can only be regarded as B +, the original is B level, and China is C level.
In Stalin's eyes, it was undoubtedly that after his victory in the Chinese battlefield, he began to attack the Soviet Union in the Far East in a vain attempt to obtain the cooperation of the Germans. Only if both of them confirm their cooperation, then they can fight the Soviet Union in the Far East while wantonly occupying territory in other countries in the Far East.
And the Germans can also reduce the pressure a lot, at least they don't have to worry about the pressure on the Soviet side. In fact, it was not only the Soviet Union that did not want Germany to unite, but it was estimated that no country in Europe except Italy wanted Germany to unite.
Therefore, while Stalin was angry, he also ordered Zhukov to inflict heavy losses on the Kwantung Army in a short period of time, and to extinguish the enthusiasm of the Kwantung Army for war, so that they would not dare to provoke any disputes in the Far East, and at the same time, the Soviet Union would not have to invest too many troops in the Far East to defend.
Soon, Zhukov sent the battle plan, which they had practiced hundreds of times, to the military commanders of the units below. At the same time, he ordered the war to start early tomorrow morning, and it didn't matter if the Kwantung Army could not be found, it would just be directly fought to Manchukuo, and he did not believe that when the Soviet Red Army appeared in Manchukuo, the Kwantung Army would not come forward. Besides, the two armies are facing each other, can the Soviet Red Army not know where the Kwantung Army is?
In this way, a war that was supposed to take place a year later was invisibly advanced by Su Dao by a year. The wings of the butterfly have long been instigated, the trajectory of history has long been changed, and the situation of the War of Resistance in China has long been detached from the original history, because the 99th Army suddenly advanced to the northeast, forcing the Kwantung Army to mobilize troops to fight against the 99th Army, which also made the troops of the Yue Army in the Guannai fall into a situation where the gap is getting bigger and bigger.
With the deepening of the battlefield in Guannei, the lack of strength of the Yue army has also been completely leaked out, and the battlefield in the Guan Nei has also begun to change at this time, although the Huayuankou embankment broke the strategic intention of the Yue army to attack Wuhan from the north and the east, but at the same time extinguished the intention of the Yue army to directly enter Wuhan from the east.
The 99th Army succeeded in holding back the Kwantung Army, which was several times its size, so that they could not support the Guannai battlefield in a short period of time. At this time, the emperor was very angry and ordered to summon the reserves of three divisions to be put into the battlefield in the inland of China, and at the same time ordered the Kwantung Army to solve all the battles within a month, so as to quickly support the inland battlefield of China.
'Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ’
The sky has just darkened, the soldiers of the army have just arrived at the time of dinner, many soldiers of the army have just picked up the lunch box, finished the meal, sat together and talked and laughed, for the next war, they are not nervous at all, the weakness of the Chinese army has penetrated into the depths of their hearts, so most of the soldiers still look down on the Chinese soldiers.
It's just that no one thought that as soon as the soldiers sat down, there was a roar in the air, which was all too familiar to them, and at least hundreds of large-caliber guns of more than 100 millimeters could cause such a sensation. However, these Japanese troops soon reflected that although the Kwantung Army had sent artillery to support the battle this time, there were less than 30 artillery pieces of more than 100 mm caliber, and now there were at least 100 large-caliber artillery pieces, which were definitely not on their side.
'Boom! Rumble! Rumble! When the 105 mm and 155 mm shells fell into their crowd, these Kwantung Army soldiers reacted, these are the artillery of the Chinese side, they dodged the bombardment of the shells in all directions, and secretly scolded the Chinese people when they were so rich? There are so many heavy artillery?
