Chapter 811: The Soviets Sue for Peace
A series of mutual attacks on the Sino-Soviet border, which were personally planned by Tang Qiuli and carried out by Tang Qiuquan, the head of the special operations detachment, finally provoked the anger of Japan and the Soviet Union.
The Japanese were ready to start fighting, hundreds of thousands of Kwantung troops gathered on the eastern border of China and the Soviet Union, but the Soviets were hesitating, and the Soviet troops in the Far East were still making preparations with both hands.
At the meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the generals of the military were unanimously inclined to give the most fierce counterattack to the Japanese, to defeat the ambitions of the Japanese in the Far East, and to get it to the meeting, but Stalin, the head of the Soviet Union, just did not express his position, but blindly chōu Mobik yellow tobacco, the nòng was full of smoke in the conference room, and the leader's face was hidden in the smoke.
Stalin is difficult, it is too difficult, he seems to vaguely feel that this series of events has happened abnormally, according to common sense, Tang Qiuli is in the northeast of Liaoxi, Chen soldiers are more than 300,000, the Kwantung Army should not have jīng force to attack the Far East, but a large amount of intelligence collected by the Intelligence General Bureau of the Far East Military Region shows that the Kwantung Army has increased the strength of 18 divisions and regiments, about 400,000 people, this is not to fight or what?
In addition, the Japanese protest letter was detailed, concrete, and well-founded, and on the night of the 24th, the soldiers and towns of both sides were attacked at the same time, how could there be such a coincidence? The Far Eastern Military District did not have such courage, it should have violated the established national policy towards Japan and provoked a war on its own, and it was true that there were hundreds of Soviet soldiers killed and wounded.
Then, this qiē is an invisible hand in the cào control, Stalin suddenly had a cold war, he thought of a terrible guess, this qiē, is the Chinese Tang Qiuli tricked yīn, using the Japanese to drag Timoshenko's second army, can not enter the outer méng gu.
But it's not logical, huh? Tang Qiuli could have annihilated Zhukov's encircled troops and faced Timoshenko's troops, and there was no time at all, Zhukov had been surrounded for more than a week, and Stalin was confused again.
He used the thinking of yīn to seek a family and add a political family, broke everything apart, analyzed and judged, and finally came to a conclusion that made him shudder, Tang Qiuli and the Japanese reached some kind of secret agreement, Tang Qiuli was borrowing a knife to kill people, the Japanese were pushing the boat along the river, and both sides wanted to get benefits, and only the Soviet Union paid the price for this benefit, Tang Qiuli and Hirohito had to be the winners, and only Stalin was the loser.
Stalin became more and more firm in his judgment, don't look at Tang Qiuli and the Japanese fighting to the death, looking like they don't share the sky, when it comes to interests, the enemy can also temporarily shake hands and make peace, he himself did not do this less, so it seems that it is true that the Japanese want to attack the Far East, Zhukov and the ancient region of the Outer Méng, the Far East, Stalin can only choose one.
Stalin had a plan, and he also determined the tone of the meeting of the CPSU Political Bureau, and the Second Army of the Far East of Timoshenko would not go to the ancient areas of the Outer East for the time being, but would stay where it was and pay attention to the development of the situation, and all the troops of the Far Eastern Military District would immediately enter a state of first-class combat readiness, but they must not take the initiative to attack the Japanese army, and should take a restrained attitude towards the provocations of the Kwantung Army on the border, unless there is a limited counterattack for the purpose of self-defense, Stalin sternly warned.
As for Zhukov's encircled troops, Tang Qiuli had no signs of attacking for the time being, and there was no action to resolutely destroy the First Army in the Far East, so he asked the encircled troops to send special personnel to contact the commander of the squadron and ask for permission to give the encircled Soviet troops and use transport planes to airdrop food and supplies, which was a humanitarian request.
The last and most important point is that in order to seek a complete solution to the foreign and ancient problems, it is possible to express the sincerity of the Soviet government through third-party channels, and after negotiations, reach a mutually satisfactory result, and actively resolve the question of the fate of Zhukov's First Army, but only after the Japanese attack on the Far East has become a fact.
This means that Stalin was forced to give up in one direction, which was a difficult choice, he chose to seek a compromise with Tang Qiuli in the ancient region of Outer Méng, whether it was a long-term plan or an expedient measure, Stalin reluctantly gave up a certain part of the interests of the Soviet Union, this kind of abandonment, may mean eternal loss, in Stalin's mind, the Far East is of greater significance to the Soviet Union than the ancient region of Outer Méng, of course, there is also the factor of Zhukov's troops.
After the decision of the political bureau meeting was over, the tone of Tang Qiuli and the Japanese had been set, Stalin's mouth was full of bitterness, in his memory, there was no precedent for féiròu that had been swallowed in his stomach and spit it out, this Tang Qiuli gave him a taste of defeat for the first time, and bowing to his opponent was the last thing Stalin wanted to do.
Both Japan and the Soviet Union were preparing for the coming war, but Emperor Hirohito took the initiative and Stalin was passive, and his greatest hope was that the Japanese would not fight in the Far East.
In the Sutai area of ancient Uriya, Tang Qiuli, who looked at hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops like a cat and mouse, felt the subtle changes in the attitude of the Soviet people.
On a sunny morning, the rare good weather in the western region of Méng, in the clear blue sky, floating these white clouds, Tang Qiuli was lying on the grass, the breeze was blowing on his cheeks, the lover's hands were as gentle as his hands, the grass under his body exuded the smell of early autumn ripeness, and a few larks, in the open space between tanks and artillery, sang joyful songs tactfully.
Without the sound of guns and fighting, the smell of gunpowder and blood drifted away with the wind, and these grassland singers, the original creatures, acquiesced in the existence of these two tuǐ forcible intruders.
In the past few days, there has not been a single skirmish on the battlefield of the Uriya Sutai encirclement, not even a single small-scale battle, not even a single gunshot, the two sides seem to have tacitly reached some kind of tacit understanding, and the surrounded Soviet soldiers have no initial panic and despair, but this kind of restricted action days are somewhat helpless.
From Zhukov to the senior generals of the Soviet Army, and then to ordinary soldiers, they seem to understand their current situation and identity very well, and they will definitely not anger the soldiers of the squadron, and both sides of the Jiāo battle are waiting, consciously maintaining a relative balance.
Tang Qiuli enjoyed a rare leisure time, the war between Japan and the Soviet Union had been provoked, according to the actions of Timoshenko's Second Army in the Far East, Stalin had turned his attention to the upcoming Soviet-Japanese war, he held two letters in his hand, and looked at the contents of the letters with relish, which were brought to him by Mei Ting and Mei Xuetong guò logistics supply line.
The letter of the sisters is packed in a thick big envelope, Mei Ting's letter paper is well-behaved, Mei Xue's letter paper is folded into the shape of a jīng butterfly, no need to open the letter, Tang Qiuli knows whose letter it is, Mei Ting's letter, the wife's meaning is stronger, the big sister-like admonition, the concern is overflowing between the lines, so that Tang Qiuli feels the warmth of being cared for.
The most talked about is their unborn child, and the calmness and happiness of becoming a mother, Mei Xue's letter is more about missing, ** spicy language, which is very different from her usual appearance of being a little shy, when Tang Qiu left to read the letter, a kind of jī affection and irrepressible eagerness.
It has been more than two months since he parted with his two wives, since he parted from Tianjin, the war has been frequent, and he has been nervous about dealing with various situations, occupying all his jīng strength, it is rare to have such a free time, but the two wives are not around, he is empty in his heart, carefully hide the letters of the two wives, hide them closely, and look at the blue sky, the white clouds floating freely.
More than a dozen guards stood around from afar, quiet and quiet, and a staff officer came from afar, as if he couldn't bear to disturb the artistic conception of the division commander, and muttered a few words to the detachment leader on duty, but it attracted Tang Qiuli's attention.
He sat up lazily and asked, "What's the matter?" The staff officer came over and reported: "The division commander, the surrounded Soviet army, sent three representatives, saying that there is something important to involve with the division commander, and the leader is a lieutenant colonel," Tang Qiuli sneered and said: "Send them back, a small lieutenant colonel is not enough rank." ”
More than an hour later, on the encircled Soviet position, a white flag was raised, and five Soviet officers walked in under the sun, in this battlefield of thousands of troops and horses, it seemed particularly lonely, the two sides met on the position of the third brigade of the directly subordinate corps, Chang Feng, chief of staff of the independent division and chief of staff of the directly subordinate corps, who was responsible for the contact, carefully looked at several Soviet officers.
The leader of the team is a major general, following the four officers, many days of siege, the Soviet officer's jīng god state is obviously sluggish, eyes collide with each other, burst out a few points of fire, the eyes of the major general of the Soviet army, is irrepressible hatred, there seems to be a lot of loneliness and unwillingness, for the Soviet soldiers, being surrounded by the squadron and becoming hostages is a shame that will never be erased in their hearts.
Under Chang Feng's gaze, the representative of the Soviet army bowed his head and explained that he had come to ask for an independent division, in line with the principle of humanitarianism, for the health of the hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers who were surrounded, he allowed the Soviet Air Force transport plane to airdrop goods and supplies to the encirclement.
Chang Feng reported the request of the encircled Soviet army to Tang Qiuli, and Tang Qiuli said indifferently: "Yes, the Soviet planes can airdrop any materials to the Soviet troops in the encirclement, including weapons and ammunition, the number and variety are not limited, the more the merrier." After speaking, he smiled slightly.
Chang Feng understood the intention of the division commander, the encircled Soviet army was already a boiled duck, and it couldn't fly at all, no matter how many weapons, ammunition and supplies were replenished, it still fell into the hands of his own troops in the end.
From this day on, dozens of Soviet transport planes airdropped all kinds of supplies to the Soviet troops in the encirclement every day, and as for what they were, only the Soviets themselves knew in their hearts.
The soldiers of the corps directly under the independent division watched the busy comings and goings of the Soviet transport planes as if they were lively, which was a signal for the Soviet army to seek peace, and Tang Qiuli certainly would not refuse.
