Chapter 241 Lao Maozi doesn't want to fight anymore
When the railway was destroyed by unknown armed forces, which caused a gap of hundreds of kilometers, and was telegrammed to the Far East Army headquarters by the old Russian officer who led the team to investigate the situation, the senior officials of these old Russians finally realized the crisis. And after the Darkhan Guerrilla Brigade, who also returned to the base with the spoils, telegraphed his record on the trip to the corps. Deng Chenggong knew that the end of this war that lasted for nearly three months could basically come to an end.
In this battle with the Russians, although the newly formed main militia divisions paid a considerable price, the Far East Army paid far more than the Militia Corps. After this war, several new divisions of the Jinsui Military Region and several new divisions of the Northwest Military Region were also reborn and became the real main force.
Just when the Far Eastern Army Command reported this situation to the Soviet side, Deng Chenggong, who had moved the command to Saiyin Mountain, immediately commanded the main divisions on the front line to carry out rotation defense and prepare for a full-scale attack.
At the same time, the Far East Army that confronted them may soon have ammunition replenishment problems, and they also informed these division commanders one by one. They told them that they could launch some small-scale raids appropriately to consume the stock of the Far East Army in front of the Far East Army. After the three-day general attack was launched, they would wipe out the Far East Army that had confronted them for a month.
The commanders of the participating divisions who received this telegram also felt that the battle was indeed a bit annoying. But they also admitted that these Russians were slightly better than the Kwantung Army they had fought against in terms of equipment and combat effectiveness. If Deng had not been very stingy in the war, the Russians could call for artillery fire support every time they charged, and it was estimated that this battle would not have been in a confrontation until now.
Moreover, as the air defense forces become stronger and stronger, the Far East Air Force, which is the only air force superior to the Militia Corps, finally dared not bomb easily after losing hundreds of aircraft. Without air threats, the Militia Corps relies on timely replenishing weapons and equipment to fight defensive battles with the Far East Army, which can be said to win more than lose less.
As these militia who had survived the war for the first time gradually matured through rotation, the militia division commanders on the front line were looking forward to fighting another big battle. They tried to defeat the Far East Army, whose combat power was beginning to decline, in one fell swoop. Even many main division commanders felt that it might be possible to take this opportunity to liberate Mongolia in one fell swoop!
Now it is finally time to wait for Deng Chenggong to send it to him and he can launch a general attack, but in the face of Deng Chenggong's request for this general attack, he will try to capture as many soldiers as possible in the Soviet Union's Far East Army. This will be very beneficial for their future negotiations with the Soviet Union. This makes many main division commanders who intend to vent their anger on these guys, and ultimately choose to obey Deng Chenggong's orders.
He began to let translators familiar with Russian, teach their soldiers to learn some simple Russian, such as slogans such as "snatch guns and don't kill them, militia treat prisoners preferentially". When some front-line division commanders saw that the firepower of the Far East Army had indeed decreased a lot, they actually asked their soldiers to hold loudspeakers in groups and shouted out these newly learned Russian to the positions of the Far East Army. This made the Far East Army soldiers on the opposite side really a little discouraged.
Just when these Far East troops realized that there was a problem with the supply in the rear and their combat effectiveness began to decline, the Soviet government, which had been paying attention to the war, finally realized that the situation was a little bad. Their more than 100,000 Far East soldiers in Mongolia were afraid that the situation was really bad this time.
In fact, when the battle entered the stage of confrontation, the Soviet Union's top leaders suggested that this war be ended as soon as possible. Because the current situation in Europe has changed, the German side, which originally worked closely with them, began to gather troops in their occupied areas. However, Stalin did not believe that Germany would attack the Soviet Union. In his opinion, the Soviet Union is a well-deserved military and economic power, who dares to cause trouble for them?
Faced with this telegram from the Far Eastern Army, Stalin felt that the militia corps was indeed difficult for the first time, but he seemed a little intolerant of failure and said, "Apart from the railway, can't we transport supplies to the front line?"
Sitting in the conference room, the Soviet Minister of Defense Xie Miaotemu Yuki looked a little serious: "Comrade Stalin, although the railway was blown up, we can still supply supplies by air freight. However, this kind of air freight supply is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the weapons and ammunition that can be supplied are extremely scarce, which can not cope with the ammunition consumption speed on the front line. Moreover, during this period, for the sake of the Mongolian war, we have almost consumed all the ammunition supplies in the Far East.
In addition, on the border line where we confronted the Kwantung Army, there have been cases of Kwantung Army preparing for war. If all the materials from the Far East are really dealt with on the Mongolian battlefield, once the Kwantung Army launches a full-scale attack, we are afraid that our interests in the Far East will be severely damaged."
When Stalin heard that the Kwantung Army was also joining in the fun at this time, he seemed a little puzzled: "Didn't our Far East Army deal with them once the last time? Why did the Kwantung Army start to move again at this time? And didn't he have a grudge against this Chinese militia? Why didn't he choose to watch at this time, but instead chose to help them?"
A few questions were raised in a row, and the Minister of Defense could only continue to explain: "For the Japanese, they were originally greedy guys. Perhaps they felt that our Far East troops were restrained on the Mongolian battlefield. At this time, they felt that the time was ripe and planned to regain their former colonies in the Far East.
Especially Vladivostok, which they have been obsessed with, is an excellent military port. Once it is really occupied by the Japanese army, they can increase their rule over the Northeast occupied area through sea transportation. So it is easy to understand that they will do something at this time. Once the Kwantung Army joins the battlefield in the Far East, I am afraid that the troops we have deployed in the Far East alone may be slightly insufficient."
Stalin, who has always been specializing in politics rather than military, seemed a little angry when he heard this: "What do the Minister of Defense have? Is it necessary for us to continue to dispatch troops from the country to strengthen the strength of the Far East Army, or is there another way to solve the current chaos in the Far East?"
Seeing that the General Secretary who was accustomed to being arbitrary and lost his temper again, the Minister of Defense seemed a little cautious: "My suggestion is to immediately stop the Mongolian war, negotiate with the militia corps, and end this meaningless war. In this war, our Far East Army had already paid nearly 100,000 casualties, and the Mongolian independent government failed to control the situation in Mongolia. Our investment and profits there were almost exhausted in this war.
If this battle continues, it is very likely to shake our dominance in the Far East. According to our comrades in the Far East, Deng from this militia company actually admires the team led by our comrades in China and to some extent always supports the troops led by our comrades in China.
But in this war, some problems arise in the cooperation between the two sides. The militia corps is no longer as selflessly supporting our Chinese comrade troops as before. Moreover, as we understand, the north of China can now be said to be the world of this militia corps. They have established a complete industrial foundation and have factories specializing in weapon research and development and production. In addition, their material supply is much more convenient than us. If this war continues, it will only drag us into the quagmire of war and allow our real enemies, the Japanese, to take advantage of it.
My suggestion is to contact our comrades in China immediately and ask them to send representatives to negotiate with Deng, that is, to maintain the current situation. We will no longer engage in war, and it is best for everyone to join forces to deal with the Japanese army in the Far East. In addition, in this war, many of our injured officers and soldiers did not receive effective Shenlong potion treatment, and the officer's injury and death rate also rose sharply. This still had a certain impact on our war on the European front.
In addition, according to our intelligence department's investigation, after we had a conflict with Deng's troops, Germany took over all our cooperation with Deng, and provided them with institutional equipment and military technology in exchange for the quota of agents that originally belonged to us. In addition, we have intelligence, the German army seemed to intend to adjust its strategic layout and began to assemble heavy troops on the front lines of our Europe. With intelligence, it seemed that they were very likely to attack our occupied land on the European battlefield. If this situation is really possible, we have no way to deal with the enemy on three sides.
Therefore, being close to the actual controller of the north of China is undoubtedly the most beneficial solution for us. And they have an unresolvable hatred with the Japanese. I can guarantee that once the war in Mongolia is over, Deng will definitely send his army to fight with the Japanese army in the north. In this way, isn’t it more in our interests to be spectators?"
Although Stalin was reluctant to negotiate with a warlord like the militia, if the current external situation in the Soviet Union was as serious as the Minister of Defense said, it was indeed very unfavorable to them. It was precisely because of this consideration that Stalin finally decided to hand over the negotiation method to the Far East Army to handle it himself. In short, his request was that the result of the negotiation could protect the Soviet Union's face and strive for corresponding interests in this situation as much as possible.
After receiving the instructions from the Ministry of National Defense, the Far East Army Command knew that the leaders had handed over this bad thing to them. But in order for the more than 100,000 Far East Army soldiers who could appear dangerous at any time on the front line, they had to contact the People's Party headquarters, which was also indignant about the war. I hope they could contact Deng Chenggong, the militia corps, so that everyone could end this unnecessary war and peacefully end the Mongolian war in negotiations.
Facing this kind of telegram with a hint of request for instructions, Taizu, who was dissatisfied with the Soviet Union's rough interference in China's internal affairs, said the first sentence he said with this telegram was, "I didn't listen to our advice at the beginning, but now I have suffered a loss and remembered that we are comrades and what do we treat our Chinese People's Party as? The lobbyist is still a peacemaker, and asked the Bureau of Communications to call back and say that our People's Party is powerless to do anything about this. I have no face to send people to contact the Militia Corps, so that the Militia Corps will stop the war at this time."
Regarding Taizu's serious dissatisfaction with the Soviet Union, several members of the Politburo Standing Committee who came to the conference room still let Taizu calm down. Everyone should calm down and discuss how to deal with the current relationship with the Militia Corps. You should know that during this period, the cooperation between the People's Party's army and the Militia Corps in North China was far less harmonious than before. It is no wonder that the Militia Corps has some opinions on them!
But now the big brother is suffering a loss and asks them to coordinate again. This is definitely impossible for the senior leaders of the Chinese People's Party to be unhappy. What's more, the fact that Mongolia is inseparable from China's territory is known to the whole people. At this time, the Far East Army roughly interferes with the conflict between Mongolia and the militia in this matter, which undoubtedly makes these equally patriotic senior leaders of the People's Party really feel a little uncomfortable!
