Chapter 974: Records of the Battle of the Heart of Central Asia

Wang Maoru was excited in his heart, but he still maintained his calm and composed, seemingly very calm, as if this victory had been expected by him a long time ago, and his calm expression even made others look a little incredible. : Read novels

"If Xiu Shuai really becomes a big thing, he will point out the country and scold Fang Xuan, and the general trend of the world will be in the palm of his hand." When the others saw him this, they couldn't help but admire him in their hearts, and their admiration for him deepened.

The others got a dozen bottles of champagne from nowhere, and after opening them, they sprayed each other on each other's bodies, and even the combat sand table was sprayed badly. Wang Maoru just smiled faintly, did not join the carnival crowd, just sat aside.

The 64-year-old veteran general Sa Zhen, vice minister of national defense, stood on the sand table and couldn't talk to himself with excitement; this was the only foreign victory he personally experienced and participated in commanding, and it was also the first victory in a real large-scale war with a foreign country since the founding of the National Defense Force. Recalling the pre-Qing and Beiyang periods, how many times China was defeated and forced to sign treaties that lost power and humiliated the country, how many times Chinese soldiers became the object of local ridicule, the Chinese were known as poor worms that even the Indian soldiers could not beat, and even some Westerners thought that the Chinese could not beat the Ethiopian natives with javelin pike darts, and the image of the Chinese ** people outside was always with their heads down.

But now, Sa Zhenbing has thoroughly felt a kind of strength, this kind of strength is not the kind of self-deception of the former Qing Dynasty, it is not the kind of civil war of the Beiyang Republic of China, which is a real strength. Only the victory of foreign wars can truly declare the strength of a country. No matter how great the victory of the civil war is, it can't offset the importance of a foreign war, Sa Zhenbing looked at the cheering young people and couldn't help but burst into tears. He looked up to find the spiritual leader of the Wehrmacht from the crowd, the man who would never admit defeat and was known as the Nine-Tailed Fox. But the view was blocked by the laughing young officer.

Wang Maoru smiled and sat silently in his chair, took out a cigar, sniffed it carefully, cut it open and lit it. As he got older, he rarely smoked cigars, which were very strong-smelling cigarettes. His wife, Zhiya, was not in good health, and every time she smelled the smell of cigars, she would cough for a long time, so she persuaded him not to smoke this kind of cigarette. Wang Maoru quit cigars for the sake of his wife, and now he has been smoking northern cigarettes produced by Zhili Cigarette Factory. But today he was happy, he still decided to smoke one, but he was too happy in his heart. I clicked it a few times but didn't light it, but Li Wenbin helped him light it on the side. He looked at Li Wenbin, the director of the Secret Telecommunications Department, who was drenched like a chicken in soup, smiled, and said, "Young people are so good." ”

"Xiushuai, you are not yet forty this year." Li Wenbin said with a smile.

Wang Maoru said with a smile: "I'm old, I'm old, my hair is gray." He took a drag on his cigar. He really said forcefully, and instructed: "Go and transmit this news to the commanders of all military regions in the country by secret telegram, and inform me that this matter must not be disseminated, and that it is necessary to wait for the unified arrangement of the Ministry of National Defense, and that it is not allowed to contact journalists or consuls of other countries without permission." ”

"Yes." Li Wenbin said excitedly.

The purpose of choosing the secret telegram was to allow the Ministry of Defense time to prepare, although Wang Maoru understood that this battle, a war involving hundreds of thousands of people to decide the fate of the Western Regions, would soon be known to the whole world. But for the two countries, China and the Soviet Union, it will take time to consider the aftermath -- this war is indeed the most undesirable and yet the most deserved.

The last thing that should happen is that two ill-fated countries have just gone through turmoil, reunification, and have just signed a treaty of friendship before the whole world, China was the first government to recognize the legitimate existence of the Soviet Russian government, and the first country to send an official diplomatic ambassador to the Soviet army was precisely China. The two countries regard each other as their most important partners, and they are like iron buddies in the international arena, which makes people envious and jealous.

The most important reason for this is that there has always been a territorial dispute between China and the Soviet Union, and Soviet Russia wants to completely inherit the territory and power of Tsarist Russia. It is necessary to step on the heads of the newly rising Chinese and climb up. And if China wants to preserve its current 14.6 million square kilometers of land, it must also go through the baptism of war. Territory in no part of the world can be acquired through negotiation, only by force, only by blood. to be able to fight and guard.

Wang Maoru dug out the details of the telegrams of the Secret Telegraph Division in these days, which recorded the details and developments of the battles that took place during the entire battle. This is simply a history of war. He took a hard puff on his cigar and read it carefully, the war went on for sixteen days, and in those sixteen days he had only returned home once, and had not even seen his family, and had been living in the command center. He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and when he looked at this side, he felt as if thousands of troops were galloping and fighting in front of his eyes. He couldn't get into it right away, but he was able to fit in.
