On the front line of the Ural Mountains and the Tangnu Mountains, the five brigades of the Corps directly under the Suspicious Formation sent telegrams to the division commanders, and the contents of the telegrams were different, but they all reflected a problem: "Division commander, in the sky over our brigade's position recently, an unknown number of Soviet reconnaissance planes suddenly appeared, which repeatedly approached the airspace over our position for reconnaissance, flew in a two-plane formation, and according to the order of the division commander, they did not shoot them down!" ”

"The Soviets finally noticed something unusual, but they were slow to react!" Tang Qiuli thought to himself, picked up the telegram again, looked at it a few times, and put it back on the table, the five brigades directly under the corps, on the front line of the Ural Mountains and the Tangnu Mountains, tossed with great fanfare for more than ten days, until now, it was discovered by the Soviet army, but it was a pity that he tried his best to design the bureau.

However, the attention of the Soviets was attracted by the Far Eastern battlefield, where they would think that they could make such a dead hand against the Outer Mongolian Front, pursue it in the back and intercept it in the front, making it clear that they wanted to put the Outer Mongolian Front to death and prevent it from returning to the European battlefield.

"The Japanese troops under the command of Zairen are about to launch an attack on the Soviet Far Eastern Front, and the other two Soviet front troops were blocked by Liu Tiehan on the line from Chita to Irkutsk, the Ural Mountains and the Tangnu Mountains, and suddenly appeared to intercept and kill the troops, I don't believe it, Stalin will not have a cold sweat! It's almost over, and Stalin's envoys should also make an appearance, right? Tang Qiuli thought evilly.

"The situation in the Far East is very delicate, what will Stalin do next? Whether it is to rescue or abandon the Far Eastern Front, I can't see it! Tang Qiuli walked to the window and looked at the sky of Outer Mongolia.

Just yesterday, the General Staff of the German Army sent a routine report on the battle situation, and Tang Qiuli could see it at a glance from the style of writing between the lines. This report on the situation of the war was written by Hitler, "Your Excellency Honorable Vice Chairman Tang, it is my honor to inform you that the army of our German Empire has basically crushed the resistance of the Soviet army and is advancing in the direction of Moscow!" ”

If that's all, Tang Qiuli can't see it, and the next words will be completely Hitler's style. "I believe that it will not be long before the end of October 1943 at the latest, the German flag will fly over the Kremlin. Stalin's reign will be history, as for the Soviet troops in the Far East. Whether to rush back to the European theater of war. It doesn't matter anymore, and General Tang's troops don't have to deliberately intercept it. ”

This is Hitler's style, arrogant and confident, but it reveals two messages: Hitler will be before October of this year. To end the war against the USSR, the Far Eastern Forces, on which Stalin had high hopes, could not change the outcome, that is. The succession of victories burst Hitler's confidence, and he believed that the Soviet Union was already moribund, and that victory for the Germans was in sight.

"Damn, Hitler has some meaning of crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!" Tang Qiuli couldn't help but laugh and scold, should he think about letting Vasilevsky's troops go over and adding some trouble to Hitler, and also save that guy's nostrils facing the sky, if he and the Japanese didn't entangle the Soviet Union's more than 6 million troops for him, even if the German army could hit the city of Moscow, it would be the end of the crossbow.

Of course, Tang Qiuli was not worried that Hitler would break his word or do something unexpected, after all, in the Asian chess game, his own strength was enough to change the direction of the war.

Also, according to Brother Qiusheng's telegram, in the Australian battlefield in the southwest Pacific, the Allied forces have not been completely defeated by the Japanese army, although they have been in a situation of being pressed and beaten, but they have always been able to hold on to the last piece of land in Australia, and the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Southwest Pacific Dispatch Army, General Ito Yanzaburo, although he has launched many large-scale attacks, he is unable to occupy all of Australia.

For this point, Tang Qiuli himself is also quite impressed by the resilience of the allies, just like a cockroach that can't be killed, its vitality is extremely tenacious, it seems that his practice of giving blood to the allies is still very effective.

No one in this era can see the final result of the Australian battlefield, but Tang Qiuli knows that the Japanese army now has an obvious upper hand, but with the protracted delay of the Pacific War, Japan's war potential has been almost tapped, and fighting a battle of the same scale with the Soviet Union and the British and American allies in the Far East and the Pacific Theater at the same time is already the limit of Japan's national strength.

With the fall of Britain, it was a good thing for US President Roosevelt, the Americans could finally pull out their legs from that big mud puddle, and they were able to put all their military and financial resources into the Asian battlefield.

According to the intelligence department, the Japanese naval task force, which had been blockading the US mainland and the Australian mainland, had recently had several major battles with the US fleet in the eastern Pacific.

The United States, which has strong national strength, lost a few warships, and did not hurt its muscles and bones, and some of them were consumed by the Japanese navy, and the weapons and equipment sold to the Allies at a high price in the East Indies could empty the British treasury, but could not empty the American treasury.

The Japanese army was defeated by the Allies in the Pacific Theater, which was not in Tang Qiuli's interests, and the islands in the southwest Pacific Ocean, including the vast Australian mainland, had long been included in his sphere of influence and regarded as something in his pocket, but it was not a fight with the British and American troops, but was taken from the Japanese army.

"Well, the time is almost up, in a few months, the blood of the allies should be broken, and the war in Australia has come to an end!" Tang Qiu left Outer Mongolia, but because of a telegram from Hitler, his thinking shifted from the Soviet-German war to the Pacific theater, and the span and leap of thinking were unparalleled.

However, in this way, Lieutenant General Zhang Quan, the head of the logistics department of the independent division who made money from the Americans and the British, was counting the money to the soft-handed independent division, and the old man should be very dissatisfied, thinking of Uncle Quan, who was disgruntled, "Hahaha! Tang Qiuli couldn't help but laugh happily.

"Commander, why are you so happy?" Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, Major General, pushed the door and came in from the outside, just when he heard Tang Qiuli's laughter, he couldn't help but ask.

Tang Qiuli turned around, saw that it was Zhao Yuhe, and said, "It's nothing, think of something, Yuhe, what's the matter?" ”

Zhao Yuhe also smiled and said: "Division commander, didn't I have something to do that time, Deputy Division Commander Liu sent a telegram from the Far East Front, starting from the early hours of this morning, the Soviet Union's Outer Khinganling Front and Baikal Front have stopped breaking through our blockade line and turned around and returned to the Far East battlefield. ”

"Oh!" Tang Qiuli's eyebrows raised, this news, obviously in his judgment, belongs to the part that is not very certain, "The Soviet troops of the two fronts have begun to turn around to rescue Zhukov!" He said.

"Yes, division commander, according to the direction of the march of the Soviet troops, it is completely certain!" Zhao Yuhe replied, while wondering the division commander's reaction, in the previous many conversations, didn't the division commander judge that the possibility of the Soviet army returning to help is extremely great, why did he have a surprised expression today?

Stalin was able to make such a move, which did make Tang Qiuli sigh, although his own judgment was basically the same, but once it became a fact, it still made him have some emotion, in the critical situation that the German army was pressing the border and was about to attack the city of Moscow, Stalin made such a decision, did he have a safe way, before the Soviet army in the Far East returned to the European battlefield, to withstand the German attack, what else did Stalin's hole cards have?

"Yuhe, is there anything unusual about the actions of the Soviet Outer Mongolian Front?" Tang Qiuli asked.

Zhao Yuhe replied: "No, the speed of evacuation has not accelerated, according to the current pace of marching, it will take at least three weeks before we can reach the vicinity of the Ural Mountains and the Tangnu Mountains, and this is not counting the impact on the Soviet army caused by the delayed actions of the troops of the five brigades of the corps directly under our tail!" Commander, what are you worried about? ”

Tang Qiuli shook his head, in fact, he didn't worry about anything, but, strangely, what other cards did Stalin have that prompted him to make the decision to rescue the Far Eastern Front in the face of the fierce German offensive?

On the surface, Stalin's only hope was Vasilevsky's Outer Mongolian Front. Thinking of this, Tang Qiuli became vigilant, "Yuhe, where is Chutian's special operations detachment now?" ”

Zhao Yuhe replied: "The special operations detachment is divided into two parts, one part is under the leadership of the head of the Chutian detachment, and it is operating west of the Ural Mountains and the Tangnu Mountain range, and the other part is under the leadership of the chief of staff Qi Hanzhi, it is operating in the Far Eastern battlefield!" ”

Tang Qiuli thought for a moment and said, "Order Chutian to go deeper into the area farther west of the Ural Mountains and the Tangnu Mountains, and pay attention to reconnoitring the movements of the Soviet army in that direction!" ”

Zhao Yuhe was taken aback, "Division commander, are you worried that the Soviet army will organize another unit to attack the troops directly under the corps from behind and open a passage for the Soviet Outer Mongolian Front?" ”

"Don't be careful! Stalin's decision to return to the Far Eastern Front contained too much uncertainty for the Far Eastern and Outer Mongolian battlefields! Tang Qiuli said simply.

Zhao Yuhe was about to speak, but Colonel Chen Feng, director of the Communications Department, knocked on the door and came in, with a strange face, and said: "Division commander, I just received a telegram from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nationalist Government, the Soviet Ambassador to China, Simba Pumiyan!" ”
