Chapter 454: The Great War Is Imminent

The PLA headquarters building was brightly lit, Xu Shiyou, Zhang Xueliang, and Fu Zuoyi arrived one after another, Pang Yuan did not leave, more than a dozen people were crowded in Xie Tian's office, staff officers were in and out of the office like a marquee, and intelligence from all sides was continuously gathered into this office.

There was a table of food on the table in the corner of the office, and whoever was hungry came to eat, and no one greeted anyone.

The whole Tohoku is like the eve of a storm during the wheat harvest season, and everyone is running to grab the crops.

Li Yunlong's troops moved the fastest, and the good news was repeated, and within one day they regained Panjin, Yingkou, and Liaoyang one after another, and they also fought with the little devils in Yingkou and Liaoyang, and the Japanese troops in these two places also received orders to surrender to the Soviets, but they did not expect the PLA to arrive before the Soviets, and they were confused about whether to surrender to the PLA, so Li Yunlong shot.

Li Yunlong has always planted the red flag outside the city of Shenyang, and the large army behind him continued to advance in depth, and the inhabited villages planted the red flag and sent troops to garrison them, even if only one squad of soldiers could be arranged, they would occupy it first.

After Guo Kaiming's troops occupied Fengcheng, they turned to Kuandian and marched towards Tonghua, occupying Baishan and Liaoyuan.

The Second Army of the Korean People's Liberation Army was ordered to go out of Korea to occupy Yanbian and Dunhua.

Dong Shangwu's division of the Dongye Second Army occupied Tongliao and met the Soviet Far Eastern Army at Siping, and both sides adopted a restrained attitude and passed by.

Siping was occupied by the Soviet Far East Army, and Lishu and Gongzhuling were occupied by Dong Shangwu.

After capturing Hulunbuir, Ding Wei's division of the Third Army of Huaye advanced eastward without stopping, and occupied Qiqihar an hour before the Soviet Far East Army.

A certain unit of the 25th Red Banner Army of the Soviet Far East Army, which came by train, unwillingly put up an offensive formation, and Ding Wei also unceremoniously ordered all the staff to prepare for battle.

The two sides were at a stalemate on the outskirts of Qiqihar, and the forces of both sides were gathering more and more.

The tank division of the 25th Group Army of the Red Banner was also ordered to rush from nearby to support, and more than 200 tanks were densely packed in front of the formation, forming a tactical pressure on Ding Wei's troops.

The troops brought by Ding Wei to Qiqihar were tank regiments and armored infantry divisions directly under the army, with 34 tanks, 110 armored personnel carriers, and 33 lightly armored assault vehicles.

The X-1 main battle tank is specially designed for the Type 97 tank of small Japan, and the tank division of the 25th Soviet Army on the opposite side is equipped with all T-34 main battle tanks, and the X-1 main battle tank has no advantage over the T-34 main battle tank, and in terms of performance alone, it is slightly inferior to the T-34.

But Ding Wei was not afraid to fight.

Ding Wei ordered the tank regiment and the artillery of all departments to load the red bullets for the first time, damn it, there are many people who have a fart, as long as the war starts, I will poison you first, and your more than 200 T-34s are all Lao Tzu.

The battle was about to break out, and even the air between the two armies had frozen, and the soldiers' palms were sweating.

The two armies were in a stalemate for an afternoon and half a night, and in the second half of the night, the Soviet troops took advantage of the darkness to withdraw from the stalemate and gave up the occupation of Qiqihar.

Xie Tian, Pang Yuan and others, who had stayed up for a day and a night, were finally relieved when they received a telegram from Ding Wei, as long as Ding Wei fought here, then the war broke out between the PLA and the Soviet Union on all fronts, and it was still unknown who would win and who would lose.

But everyone knows that with Xie Tian's personality, he will definitely not take a step back, and this will definitely be a war to the death.

During this period, even Li Zongren personally sent a telegram to Xie Tian, repeatedly reminding Xie Tian to exercise restraint.

From the point of view of the Nationalist Government, you can't fight with the Soviets.

China and the Soviet Union were allies, and now the common enemy is the German-Italian-Japanese fascist alliance, and if there is a war between China and the Soviet Union, then this alliance will also be broken.

Although China has not received any substantial help from the Soviet Union since the establishment of this alliance, and Yan'an has received extremely limited help, it has been able to maintain this relationship without being in a state of hostility.

China is now no longer in a position to set up a formidable enemy for itself.

However, in Xie Tian's eyes, he never regarded the Soviets or the Russians as allies.

For nearly 100 years, there were only two of China's biggest enemies, one was the Japanese and the other was the Russians.

In the eyes of Xie Tian, these two enemies were in no particular order, the Japanese were fierce on the surface, but the Russians were even more greedy, and millions of square kilometers of land were cut off by them.

This was before the end of World War II, after the end of World War II, the oppression of China by Russia (the Soviet Union) did not weaken in the slightest, because of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the Soviets carried out relatively large technical support to China, hoping that the Chinese could rely on their own strength to develop national strength and counter the United States.

As a result, after the end of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the first thing the Soviet Union did was to withdraw all the experts who assisted China in construction, and also forced China to repay its debts.

At that time, China was suffering from natural disasters in those years, and the people's lives were extremely difficult.

The ruling Chinese government at that time was also tough, and the whole people tightened their belts, even if they ate chaff and gnawed tree bark, and insisted on paying off the foreign debt owed to the Soviets.

The reason why the Soviets did this was simply to unload the mill and kill the donkey and fall into the well, because the Chinese did not obey and did not do exactly what they wanted, and became the vanguard of the confrontation with the Western camp.

Such neighbors, thankfully, did not regard them as friends.

If you don't fight directly now, that's because you have to free up your hands to eliminate the little devil first.

The Huaye Third Army led by Ding Wei directly crossed the Mongolian border, and the dispatch of troops to Hulunbuir had already sent a signal.

When Lao Tzu finishes cleaning up the little devils, you will be next.

As a result, Xie Tian is now placed by Umezu Mijiro, who led the Japanese Kwantung Army to surrender to the Soviet Far East Army, and Xie Tian's People's Liberation Army must directly face the Soviet Far East Army and the Japanese army that has not yet been completely completed.

Just because we don't fight now doesn't mean we won't fight tomorrow.

Xie Tian, Pang Yuan, Zhang Xueliang, Xu Shiyou, Fu Zuoyi, Zhao Gang, Chu Yunfei, Qin Fen and others sat around the dining table, eating the cold meals on the table and discussing the current situation.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and Tang Hao'er, Lan Yufang, Xu Jinghao and others walked in with several large plates of hot dumplings.

A few women also stayed up all night, so it was not helpful to help them prepare some hot meals at this time.

Whoever makes Xie Tian like to eat dumplings, then make dumplings.

Pang Yuan picked up a dumpling and smiled bitterly: "We are now making a big dumpling in the Northeast, which looks like a leather filling, but if you don't grasp the heat well when cooking, the filling will break the skin." ”
