Chapter 337: Sending Troops to Central Asia
The mustache has been planning for this day for a long time, and he has started a series of strategic deceptions since last year, and has done enough to land in the UK, not to mention Joseph, even Yang Feng has been deceived by him, but in fact, many of the German troops on the Western Front are empty signs, or some units with poor combat effectiveness and the main force have changed their numbers, and there are even a large number of fake tanks that fool people, and more than 3 million elites of the German army, including 22 armored divisions, are all secretly assembled on the Eastern Front.
In order to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army in Novosibirsk, four of the six tank armies were all on the Eastern Front, and all the new combat aircraft purchased from China were also on the Eastern Front, and only the Soviet Army, with a total strength of less than 2.5 million, was distributed on the long national border, so in the sudden stormy attack of the German army, the entire defense line collapsed almost instantly.
On the first day, the Soviet army's air power on the Western Front was almost completely annihilated, thousands of combat planes were blown up on the ground, and fighters with iron crosses in the sky covered the sky and the sun, napalm, and high-explosive bombs smashed on the heads of Soviet soldiers all the time.
The German army, which was divided into three strategic clusters, advanced on the Eastern European Plain, towards Leningrad, Smolensk, and Kiev, and the entire command system of the Soviet army was completely chaotic, almost all the troops were in their own battles, and tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands surrendered to the invaders.
"The Soviet Union is on the verge of destroying the country!" At the emergency meeting in Beiping, Han Fuyu said with emotion.
"No, no, this is absolutely not possible, we cannot allow such a thing to happen, we need a USSR that has been mutilated. Instead of a Germany that we need to face directly, there is also a powerful Japan, so at most we can only tolerate the Japanese army hitting the Urals, and if they still want to attack the Volga, then we will have to send troops. Yang Feng said.
His wish was fulfilled immediately, after the Soviet-German war. The Japanese army in Novosibirsk immediately began to storm like crazy, and the Soviet army, which had long been stunned by this bad news, was finally unable to withstand the Japanese attack, although the enraged Joseph shot two generals in a row, but still could not save the situation on the Eastern Front, and the panicked Soviet army soon retreated to Omsk. Seeing that the Japanese army was in sight of victory, it was even more like a chicken blood at this time, and it didn't care about the casualties at all, and the more than 2 million troops, including the Manchurian army, had a full 200,000 casualties that scared the Soviets out of this important military town.
By this time, the Japanese army had already suffered a million casualties on the battlefield in Siberia, but even such a carload of recruits was still being transported to the front line. In addition, during this time, Yang Feng also gave up harassing Southeast Asian routes. The Americans and the British also tacitly gave Japan the greatest convenience for the transportation of materials, the military industrial system of Vietnam was also established, and no one bombed the arsenals in the northeast. Countless tanks, planes, artillery came down from the production line and went directly to the battlefield, while the Soviets fought on two fronts. As well as the gradual loss of the industrial zones of Europe, the war capability has shrunk significantly. By the time the mustache takes Kyiv. The Japanese finally got their wish and laid down their goal of killing and wounding one million people, the Samotrol super oil field in Tyumen, which has been officially put into operation with a maximum annual production of more than 100 million tons in the 80s, and even now it can reach nearly 10 million tons.
It is said that after the construction of this oil field, there was even excitement in Japan to the point of setting off fireworks to celebrate, but the Japanese army did not stop there. They then set their sights on Central Asia.
This news made Yang Feng smile happily.
"Don't worry, as a friend, even if the chairman of the committee does not agree, I will never sit idly by and watch the Japanese army continue to invade your country, isn't it just sending troops? I don't dare to say more, I can still take out three or five hundred thousand people. The thing said to Bogomolov, who had come again for help, patting his chest.
"Yang. Thank you so much, your friendship will always be remembered by the Soviet people. Bogomolov said overjoyed, he really didn't expect Yang Feng to send troops.
"Don't say kind words, we have been old friends for many years, but it is difficult for me to send troops to the Northeast, you also know that the Japanese have been building fortifications in the Northeast every day over the years, and they have built it like an iron bucket, even if I launch an attack, it will be difficult to be of any use, so I mean to directly send troops to Central Asia, and then attack the Japanese army in the north." Yang Feng said with a smile.
Bogomolov became vigilant all of a sudden, Yang Feng is famous for taking advantage of the fire to rob, it is obvious that this goods are not sent to help at all, but also to rob places.
However, if they did not agree, then Central Asia would definitely fall into the hands of the Japanese army.
"Your Excellency, you must understand that the Lanxin Railway will be opened to traffic in more than half a year, and this railway is very important for your country to resist the German and Japanese invaders, and in the future, supplies from the United States and China must pass through this railway, so we must ensure the smooth flow of this railway. Yang Feng said indifferently.
"This, I need to report to Comrade Stalin." Bogomolov said with difficulty, if they can hold Central Asia by themselves, then there is no need to run to Yang Feng, the Japanese army has now begun to attack Yekaterinburg, the Soviet army in Central Asia has long been withdrawn, and now the total Soviet army east of the Caspian Sea will not exceed 20,000 people.
"Of course!" Yang Feng said: "But you better hurry, our time is very tight, and I can assure your country that as long as our Chinese army is there, the Japanese army will never cross the Ural River."
Of course, Bogomolov understands what he means, this is playing exchange, I can send troops, but there must be a reward, this reward is Central Asia, if you Soviet Union drove the invaders out of Lu, the strength is still strong enough, then this place is naturally yours, anyway, I didn't say that we are going to occupy, on the contrary, if you drive away the invaders, the strength is not good, then you can't blame us for not leaving, everyone is smart people, and the vision is very long-term, this kind of thing is understandable needless to say.
But it is clear that Joseph has no choice, in fact, he knows very well that the entire east of the Ural River will definitely not be able to be kept, and even east of the Volga River he is very unconfident, although he is known as steel, but if the enemy is a forging machine steel is also blind, if he makes an exchange in this way, in exchange for Yang Feng to help him hold the Ural River, this is still acceptable.
So it didn't take long for him to agree to Yang Feng's request, but he also carved out a territory for Yang Feng, the scope of operations of Chinese friends must be limited to the Ural River, the east part of the Caspian Sea, Yang Feng agreed very happily, Baku is a mustache forbidden, he doesn't want to provoke this guy again, now the situation in this world is becoming more and more impenetrable, he has to be careful.
After negotiating with Joseph, the next step is to study who to send, the size of this army must not be less than 200,000, and there must be at least two or three armored divisions, this can be from the new army, but the infantry cannot use the new army, it must be from the hands of those old warlords. Now there are about 400,000 people in the old army in the north, not counting the Northeast Army, of which Han Fuyu and Song Zheyuan each have 100,000, and the remaining 200,000 are in the hands of Sun Dianying, Fu Zuoyi, Yu Xuezhong, and He Zhuguo.
"Everyone is a brother, I won't talk nonsense, we also have to grab this place in Central Asia, here is a map of resources, you can see how many good things are there, it can be said that it is a treasure trove." In addition to the marked ones, the rest of these things have not yet been discovered, and these will be the assets of our Longteng Company in the future, so as a shareholder of Longteng Company, there must be someone in charge of it. Now there is only Brother Zhuge who has no local position, but he and I have other arrangements, which means that this person must come out of the few of you who are left.
You can decide for yourselves, see who is willing to go, you have to explain first, if you go, you must hand over your current position, of course, I can pat my chest here and guarantee that no one will dare to move the interests of those you go to in the country. Yang Feng looked at a group of old warlords and said.
The rest of them looked at each other.
"No one, no one, then I'll go." Sun Dianying said.
This belongs to his small territory, and there is naturally no pressure to throw it away, since this is the case, then there is nothing else to say, so Yang Feng's Central Runner Army was formally formed, under the jurisdiction of two armored divisions directly under the headquarters, plus two infantry group armies, Sun Dianying himself and a group army, Zhao Dengyu of Song Zheyuan's department commanded another group army, and then attached to an aviation division, two fighter wings and a dive bomber wing.
However, this is only the formation of the army, if it is really sent to the army, then there are still many problems to be solved, first of all, the transportation problem, now the eastern section of the Lanxin railway has been repaired to Wuwei, and the western section from Andijan has reached Hami, that is to say, there is still a section in the middle without a railway.
This problem is not a big deal, the most headache is the security issue, you must know that Xinjiang is the territory of Sheng Shicai, and there is still a part of the Hexi Corridor in the hands of Qingma, and even the New Third Army also controls a part, this problem must be solved.
