Chapter 640: Great Northeast Strategy - The Navy's Debut

Zhukov has very conflicted feelings about Chen Feng, both admiring and very jealous, this may be the feeling that a general usually has for a god of war-level opponent! Peers are enemies, but only peers are the easiest to resonate with the heart.

As a soldier, especially the most senior commander, Zhukov admired Chen Feng, who was less than 30 years old and had less than 5 years of military experience, to achieve such amazing results. However, as a successful and great general, Zhukov had a very strong sense of distress, and he knew very well that the cooperation between the two sides was only forced by the situation, and if there was no Germany and Japan, China and the Soviet Union would probably have been bloodied, so he instinctively felt threatened by Chen Feng, the Chinese god of war Zhukov.

For this meeting, Zhukov hoped that Chen Feng could effectively contact the worries of the Soviet Union, after all, when the Western Front was tight, it was a waste of resources to have millions of troops stationed on the Eastern Front, which was also the main purpose of Stalin's sending him, and these lands in the Far East would eventually be returned to China.

In the conference room, Chen Feng chatted with Zhukov and others for a while, and Zhukov suddenly asked: "Chen, looking at your actions in the northeast region of your country, it seems that you are going to have a strategic decisive battle with the Japanese Kwantung Army?" ”

"Hehe, that's true, doesn't Your Excellency the General hate those Japanese?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.

"I hate it, of course I hate it, haha ha! Chen, you're really happy, but it seems that your offense has been frustrated? Zhukov said.

"No, no, no, it's just that there hasn't been a breakthrough for the time being. I can always deliver a fatal blow to those Japanese dwarfs if I want to! Chen Feng said confidently.

"Is it true?" Zhukov asked in a skeptical tone.

"It seems that Your Excellency General has doubts about what I said, but it's okay, please bring me a map of the Far East!" Chen Feng said with a smile.

Soon, a staff officer brought over a panoramic map connecting the Northeast and the Far East, and Chen Feng was not polite, spreading this map directly on the huge solid wood coffee table, and then pointed to the map with a pencil and said: "Not long ago, our department completely annihilated 1 complete infantry division and 1 infantry brigade of the Japanese army here, in addition to destroying more than 20,000 vassal troops; In addition, 1 infantry division and 1 armored division of the Japanese army were completely annihilated here, and 1 logistics base of the Japanese army was also destroyed, in just over 10 days of attack. Our army wiped out 150,000 Japanese troops and their vassals. 1 Japanese lieutenant general was captured, 2 Japanese lieutenant generals and 4 major generals were killed. ”

"Chen, although such a record is indeed amazing. But as far as our intelligence agencies know, there is information about the road. The Japanese Kwantung Army and its subordinate troops had more than 1 million troops. In addition, hundreds of thousands of temporary troops can be recruited at any time, and to be honest, the casualties of these hundreds of thousands of troops do not mean anything! Zhukov said.

Chen Feng looked at Zhukov and said: "The casualties of more than 100,000 do not explain anything, but we can analyze the composition of the combat strength of the Japanese Kwantung Army. Although the Kwantung Army Command clamored that the Kwantung Army had an army of 1.5 million, the only ones that could really fight head-on with the troops under our command were those 30 divisions and regiments, and as for its vassal troops, not to mention it, the Japanese army had now lost two field divisions and one equipment division, and although the total strength only accounted for about one-tenth of the total strength of the Kwantung Army, it was almost one-fifth of the Japanese army in terms of combat strength. ”

"In addition, according to the information from our intelligence department, the main forces of the Kwantung Army have now gathered on the western front, and there are only about 100,000 troops on the eastern front, what do you think will happen if we attack the Japanese army from here and here and here at the same time?" As he spoke, Chen Feng pointed to several points on the map.

Zhukov and Ivanov could see clearly that these were the weakest points of the Japanese army's defense on the Eastern Front, and once Chen Feng's troops concentrated their forces to launch an attack on several points, it would be difficult for the Japanese army to parry.

Chen Feng didn't care whether Zhukov, Ivanov and the others could eat or not, and continued: "As a friend, let me tell you another piece of news, here and here, we already have at least one infantry division of field strength that has been deployed, and we can capture these two important cities at any time as long as we are willing. ”

Zhukov and Ivanov's surprised eyes made Chen Feng enjoy it very much, and it could surprise a famous player like Zhukov, and Chen Feng's self-inflated heart was greatly satisfied.

"Chen, according to your plan and analysis, the Japanese will definitely lose this time, so why do you want to visit the Far East?" Ivanov said with a frown.

"Ha Luha, there are two main purposes for visiting the Far East, the first is to see how the Red Army in the Far East is and how effective it is. Is there any qualification to be my ally. The second is to talk to you about the reception of the Far East, in fact, I am also very clear about your thoughts on the war in the Far East, anyway, the Far East is to be returned, it is better not to get involved in the war between China and Japan, and to concentrate on dealing with the evil Germany. ”

"But please don't forget that Germany and Japan are now allies, and they are military allies. Although the Japanese seem harmless now, if you turn the tide of the war on the Moscow side, I think the Japanese will not allow you to fight back like this. Moreover, as I am the commander of the Northeast Asian Theater, I have reason to know what the combat effectiveness of the troops that will soon be under my command will be and whether they will be able to undertake the most arduous tasks! ”

Zhukov frowned and said: "Chen, you mean to say that if the combat effectiveness of the Red Army in the Far East cannot be recognized by you, they will not even be qualified to be under your command?" ”

"Yes, there is a saying that you must not have heard, you are not afraid of an enemy as ruthless as a wolf, but you are afraid of a teammate as stupid as a pig. Sometimes a terrible enemy is not terrible, what is terrible is having a teammate who is always dragging his feet, and this is the deadliest. Chen Feng ignored Zhukov's ugly face and continued.

"Chen, are you doubting the combat effectiveness of the great Red Army?" Zhukov said with an ugly face.

"Zhu, it's not that I doubt it, but the combat effectiveness of your country's army is really not very good, in the first three months of the Soviet-German war, you lost a total of 3 million troops, and now the Germans have fought to Moscow, if you can't win the defense of Moscow, then the Soviet Union, the third largest country in the world, is likely to collapse with a bang, don't doubt my words." Chen Feng said disdainfully.

"Chen, what you said is indeed the truth, and we will not deny the bad performance in the early days of the war, but now that we have gained a firm foothold, we will also achieve the most victorious victory at the Moscow Exhibition, Your Excellency the Great Leader is formulating a counterattack plan, and there will be results soon." Zhukov said.

"Zhu, you and I are both soldiers, and we both know the importance of strategic command in Ludao, and what kind of troops should be put and where to use them, this is a very serious question, so I must be clear about what kind of troops the Red Army in the Far East is." Chen Feng said.

"Chen, what are you going to do?"

"I need a military parade!" Chen Feng said.

"Parade, what a military parade?"

"No less than 20,000 people!"

"That's no problem, but such a large-scale military parade will definitely not be able to hide from the Japanese, and it is likely that the vigilance of the Kwantung Army will be in Japan at that time?" Zhukov said.

"It doesn't matter, this is exactly what I want, only the Japanese will be more crazy when they are alert, now the main force of the Japanese army is on the Western Front, and it is a big project to urgently transfer to the Eastern Front." Chen Feng said with a smile.

Under the deliberations of Chen Feng and Zhukov, a large-scale military parade was scheduled for October 25 in Boli.

At 10 o'clock in the morning of the 25th, the parade officially began, and this time the Soviet Red Army invested a total of 12 infantry battalions, 7 artillery and 8 armored platoons, in addition to cavalry, engineers, signal troops, medical troops and other related arms to participate.

The parade was very successful, at least Chen Feng thought that it was a high-quality military parade, although in Chen Feng's eyes, the weapons and equipment of the Soviet Red Army were relatively backward, and they could not be compared with the troops under his command at all, but in terms of fighting spirit and morale, they did not fall behind in the slightest.

A few hours after the parade ended, Chen Tiebao led two divisions and one brigade to finally arrive in Boli on time, after seeing the latest mechanized troops of Chen Feng's department, Zhukov was not calm, it was too powerful, and the troops of these two divisions and one brigade alone were enough to withstand more than 100,000 Soviet Red Army.

Subsequently, the two sides signed an agreement that China and the Soviet Union would jointly launch an attack on the Japanese army, recover northeastern China, and remove the threat from the Soviet Far East.

The day after the two sides signed the treaty, a news came from the South Sea that the Chinese and Japanese navies were working in the South Pacific.

Speaking of the Sino-Japanese naval battle, let's talk about the US military, although the US and Philippine forces in Bataan have surrendered to the Japanese army, there is still a US and Philippine army on Ko Island, including the US and Philippine Army Headquarters.

Due to the agreement between Chen Feng and the United States, the Nanyang Consulate will ensure the supplies and supplies of the American and Philippine troops on the island, so at least one ship of the Chinese Nanyang Navy will cruise in the South Pacific every day and use this as a base to deliver supplies to the island by helicopter.

The Japanese side was also extremely concerned about this time, so it sent a large number of naval ships to search the surrounding waters in small formations. In this way, a destroyer of the Nanyang Navy encountered a small fleet of cruisers and three destroyers and four frigates of the Japanese Navy in the Sulu Sea, and the battle began.
