Republic of China game

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two got into a BMW luxury car and drove all the way back to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China Headquarters located in the center of Baotou Special Economic Zone.After getting out of the car, the two CCP leaders went straight to the War Room of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission.At this time, in this spacious combat command center, there are already more than a dozen military officers discussing in low voices around the map platform. Of course, the senior generals of the CCP are also very concerned about this war that is related to the future and destiny of the world revolution.

The officers here include Zhu De, Commander-in-Chief of the Frontier Defense Army, Zhang Xueliang, Chief of Staff of the Frontier Defense Army, Liu Bocheng and Ye Jianying, Deputy Chiefs of Staff, Su Yu, Director of Operations Department of the Frontier Defense Army Staff Department, Chen Geng, Commander of Baotou Security, and others.They are all the core elites of the CCP’s military officer corps.The oldest Zhu De is only 41 years old, and he is always energetic and ambitious.Regarding the ongoing world war, they also faintly feel the opportunities and challenges in it... Maybe this is an excellent opportunity to realize the world revolution!It may also be a good opportunity to realize the national interests of the Chinese nation!In short, there must be one of the two.As an important leading force in the Chinese revolution and the world revolution, the Chinese Communist Party can certainly achieve their goal of rejuvenating the country or revolution in this war.

On the map table was a huge map of the Far East.It has been densely covered with markings.Several thick attack arrows of the Chinese and Russian coalition forces are carefully depicted on the map.The formation of the troops was also basically accurate. The "Red Plan" provided by the Kuomintang was only falsifying the time and route of the attack, so there was nothing wrong with the formation of the troops.The Borgia region and Krasnoyarsk on the map are circled in eye-catching red. Obviously, these two places are the key to the outcome of the war in the Far East that the Chinese Communists believe.

Seeing Zhou Enlai walking in, the officers all stood at attention and saluted.Zhou Enlai nodded slightly to return the courtesy. After recuperating for a few days in Lushan, the leader of the CCP looked very good, and his eyes were full of confidence.The heating was turned on in the war room, and Zhou Enlai smiled while taking off his overcoat: "Comrades, last night must have been a sleepless night, right? In order to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the world revolution, everyone must take good care of your health!"

Mao Zedong was taken aback when he heard the words, and frowned slightly. Zhou Enlai's words seemed to have a deep meaning. The burden of the world revolution will be borne by the people in this room, so what will the princes in the Kremlin do?He smiled calmly: "Comrade Enlai, Chairman of the Soviet People's Committee Molotov delivered a speech at noon today, calling on the proletarians of the world and the Soviet people to unite and fight to defend the Soviet Union and the proletarian motherland! You said Should our party issue a statement in response?"

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Enlai's mouth, "The Soviet Union likes to play this trick, letting the proletariat of other countries serve as cannon fodder for them!" He shook his head, and said again: "I brought the German "Baba" provided by Luo Yaoguo. All the top-secret texts of "Rosa Project" went to Lushan Mountain for vacation. I have studied all possible endings of this war on Lushan Mountain... Although the final victory must belong to the proletariat and the people. But this is not the case. It means that the Soviet Union can win, because the Bolshevik Party of the Soviet Union has already deviated from Lenin's proposition and embarked on the road of imperialism, so this war between China, the Soviet Union, Germany, and Poland is actually an imperialist war. The war for hegemony between doctrines! The Soviet Union does not represent the righteous side, and Chinese imperialism is by no means an aggressor!" He looked up at Zhu De as he spoke. "Comrade Zhu De, what is the current situation of the Sino-Soviet war?"

Zhu De, the Red Commander of the CCP who was beside him, dropped the pencil in his hand at this time and replied: "At present, large-scale battles are fiercely going on in the three strategic directions of Central Asia, the Far East, and Eastern Siberia. The main direction of attack is the Far East, and the Northeast Front Army commanded by General Bai Chongxi is deployed on the nearly 3000-kilometer front from Borja to Amursk. According to our information (provided in the "Red Plan"), the Northeast Front Army is all three participating The most powerful force in the front army attacking the Soviet Union. This force includes 29 infantry corps (21 Wehrmacht infantry corps, 2 Wehrmacht reserve infantry corps, 6 White Russian infantry corps), 3 cavalry corps, 7 Armored divisions, 10 independent artillery brigades, a total of 103 divisions, about 170 million army field troops.

此外这个方面军还拥有数量庞大的技术装备，包括七个装甲师和21个军属坦克团所拥有的5600多辆坦克、强击火炮！其中约3000多辆是先进的二号、三号系列的坦克和由这两种坦克的地盘所组装的，105mm口径的二号自行火炮。150mm口径的三号自行火炮和一种名为88mm口径三号突击炮的武器……为该方面军提供空中支援任务的是李顺恩大将亲自指挥的空军东北司令部的七个航空师所装备的3500架飞机和大量的高炮营。（中国国防军空军第一、第二高炮军总计约1500门高射炮）

According to the information provided by the Volunteer Army, it was the Soviet Far East Front that fought against the Northeast Front.This front army now has 30 front troops and 3 cavalry corps, in addition to a Chinese volunteer army of 8 people.There are a total of 107 divisions, about 165 million people. In addition, behind the Far East Front Army, there is also a Baikal Front Army with 5 armies (Front Army Commander General Vasily). Almost has the same powerful force!It's just that in order to concentrate tank troops and air forces for the Soviet-Polish War, the Far Eastern Front and Baikal Front did not have a single tank or an aircraft.But they also have a trump card, which is the cold winter climate in the Soviet Far East and Siberia. As long as the war is delayed until winter, the Chinese will have nothing to do with them.

Comparing the battle reports released by the Kuomintang and those provided by the Volunteer Army, after the start of the 11th War, the two groups deployed by the Northeast Front Army along the entire Heilongjiang-Amur River were responsible for launching a diversionary attack on the enemy in front of them.The main attack direction is placed on the westernmost line from Manzhouli to Borgia on the entire front.Attacking from the front of Manzhouli was the western group commanded by Admiral Xia Wei (3 group armies, 8 infantry corps, 4 independent artillery brigades).Detour through Eastern Mongolia and break through the weak Soviet defense line from the south of Borja to launch a quick assault on the Onon River and the Middle East Road, in order to cut off the rear of the Soviet 21st Army in the Borja area. It has seven armored divisions, three cavalry corps and one Armored group of motorized infantry corps.

Under the command of three lieutenant generals Huang Guyu, Chen Mingren and Xu Yunlong, the group was divided into three groups. On one side, Huang Guyu commanded four armored divisions to attack the Middle East Road; on the other side, Xu Yunlong commanded three armored divisions to attack. Assault in the direction of the Onon River; on the last road, Chen Mingren commanded three cavalry corps and one infantry corps to launch a fierce attack from the collapsed flank of the Soviet 21st Army, and cooperated with the western group to drive the Soviet army into the Borgia Fortress and encircle it.Although the assault speed of the armored forces was not as fast as expected in the process of implementing this plan, the 21st Army of the Soviet Army also seized the last chance to escape, but used the night of the 11th to shrink the remnants by about 12 people. Around the Borgia Fortress, set up a waiting to surround the iron barrel array.

Therefore, the Northeast Front Army's first-stage combat objectives were fully achieved by noon on the 12th.The first gate leading to Chita has been surrounded by the Chinese National Defense Forces!If the Wehrmacht can capture Borgia before winter and push the front around Chita, the Soviet Far Eastern Front will lose its freedom of movement.

At the same time, on October 10th and 10th, the National Defense Forces and the Belarusian Army also carried out an airborne landing in Krasnoyarsk, the gateway to Eastern Siberia!And has occupied this important city, cut off the railway traffic between the east and west parts of the Soviet Union.If Krasnoyarsk is not recaptured, the Soviet Union will have no way to deploy technical equipment, weapons and ammunition to the Far East and Eastern Siberia... The Far Eastern Front and Baikal Front will be in a state of isolation and helplessness. "

Zhu De's answer was very detailed. Obviously, the National Defense Forces notified the CCP of all the progress they had made.Zhou Enlai walked to the map table and pointed to the map: "That is, the gains and losses of Krasnoyarsk and Borgia are directly related to the survival of the Soviet Union! Then we will wait until the winners and losers of these two places are decided. You have to take over the class of the Soviet revolution!" At this point, Zhou Enlai scanned the war room again, seeing everyone's expressions in his eyes, except for Zhang Xueliang who was smiling, the other comrades looked a little sad.He also sighed softly, "Give Comrade Peng Dehuai an order. The Volunteer Army is going to cross the Amur River and advance to the enemy's rear. In addition, we will deploy key troops and prepare to march to Khabarovsk through the Northeast... I have already reached an agreement with Luo Yaoguo. At that time, the National Defense Forces will provide us with convenience!"

Chapter 0734 raid (nine) never surrender!

Early in the morning of June 10.

Borja, in the underground bunker of the No. 21 Fortress of the Far Eastern Front, the headquarters of the Soviet [-]st Army.

Lieutenant General Barnov sat quietly in front of the map, listening to the staff report on the losses in the past two days, his face was a little gloomy.The torrent of steel composed of thousands of Chinese tanks has smashed through the entire line of defense, rushed to its own rear, and surrounded the 21st Army Corps in a narrow area of ​​​​more than ten kilometers around the Borgia Fortress.Although everything is calm now and the Chinese army has not launched an attack, Lieutenant General Baranov can imagine with his heels that the opponent is placing 210mm, 240mm, 280mm, and even 380mm heavy siege artillery in place!

Compared with the Chita Fortress, the Borgia Fortress is nothing more than a shoddy and crappy product. The reinforced concrete bunkers here are too thin to withstand the bombardment of cannons over 240mm.And apart from 12 203mm heavy howitzers in the fortress, there are no other heavy artillery!

此外这个要塞的防空体系过于薄弱。在设计这座要塞的时候，那些耳目闭塞的工程师们都是按照苏联空军的轰炸水平来设计防空体系的，根本就没有想到这个世界上会有能挂载500公斤甚至是1500公斤巨型炸弹的俯冲轰炸机！这种飞机在11日、12日连续两天用1500公斤的巨型炸弹将要塞的四个主要堡垒群都炸成了一堆瓦砾！

At that time, Comrade Brezhnev, the political commissar of the 21st Army, was inspecting one of the fortresses... It is said that the heroic Red Army political commissar was torn to pieces by the explosion without even screaming, and he was with more than a thousand Red Army soldiers. Buried forever in the crumbling fortress.If you count the losses suffered by the three armies stationed around the Borgia Fortress in the two-day air strike, more than 5000 people have been killed or injured in the air strike.

This situation immediately cast a shadow over the entire Far East Front Army. The Chita Fortress, about 300 kilometers behind the Borgia Fortress, was also subjected to violent air raids in the past two days, although the fortress where the Front Army Command was located was not hit by bombs. , but those raging Chinese planes still caused nearly 3000 casualties.

What made Lieutenant General Baranov even more troublesome was not the bombs dropped from these Chinese planes, but the persuading leaflets with the face of Empress Anastasia printed on them!In these leaflets, the empress assures "her subjects" in the presence of a cross and an Orthodox archbishop: After she takes power in Russia, every peasant will be given his own land, and they can grow what they want, except for minor Taxes, all fruits of labor belong to oneself!No more collective farms, no more gulags!There will be no heavy military service either...

The queen also announced the pardon of all revolutionaries who had opposed the Romanov dynasty!Including Stalin and the executioners of the Red Army who shot at the Queen herself can all be pardoned... and all Soviet Red Army officers and government officials who surrendered to the Queen's government can be rewarded with corresponding positions and titles!In the end, the empress, whom Comrade Stalin called a whore, a Russian adulterer, and a madwoman, also expressed the most sincere repentance and gratitude for the pain caused to all the Russian people because the Romanov dynasty led Russia to participate in the First World War. Apologize!And it is guaranteed that after the restoration of the Romanov dynasty, it will always maintain international neutrality!Now this war will be the last war the Russian nation will ever experience!Of course, if they are unwilling to surrender, but want to dedicate themselves to defending the cause of communism, Her Majesty will pray for them with tears!

To be honest, this paper full of absurd lies is quite attractive to the officers and soldiers of the 21st Army of the Red Army who are in despair.You can own your own land, pay only a small tax, and don't have to fight for the Tsar, and there is no Gulag or NKVD!Isn't this the life that Russians dream of?According to the report of the internal affairs personnel of the group army, almost every soldier of the 21st group army has secretly hidden a leaflet, and Anastasia has been called "mother" in private by some people... Obviously 21st The morale of the group army and even the entire Far East Front Army has begun to waver!

Just this morning, a Chinese officer with a white flag sent a letter to the fortress defenders, which was said to be written by Queen Anastasia herself. In the letter, the Queen asked the 21st Army to station in Romanov On the side of the dynasty, war against the brutal usurper, the Georgian Stalin!At the same time, he also agreed to confer the title of marquis on the army-level generals, earls on all army-level generals, viscounts on the division level, and the title of baron for the regiment leaders!And all the officers who have been knighted will get the corresponding manor after the war is over.

Of course, Lieutenant General Barnov had sternly rejected the Queen's temptation to surrender, and he also wrote a reply letter to the Queen on behalf of the 21+ officers and soldiers of the 10,000st Army Group, insulting the Queen!Uh, but he is not an idiot either. After rejecting the other party's persuasion to surrender, he naturally knows what will happen next.The attack of the Chinese army will start soon, and the remaining three armies in his hands and this fortress that is almost in ruins will definitely not last for a few days.But as a loyal communist fighter, now is the time to dedicate yourself to the cause!Uh, to be precise, it is to lead 10,000+ backward elements who do not believe in communism to dedicate themselves to the cause!

Barnov stopped the staff officer's pessimistic report: "I don't need to listen to that, tell me where the reinforcements from Chita have arrived."

The staff officer sighed softly, and said: "Marshal Blucher sent us the Fourth Cavalry Army, which has nine cavalry divisions and about 11 cavalry. They set off on the morning of the [-]th, but the enemy The air strikes were too violent, and there were some white guards who disguised themselves as our people and harassed them along the way, so..."

"So you can't come?"

Barnov glared at the staff officer who reported: "Since they can't come, let's defeat those Chinese devils with our own strength! Order the commanders, political commissars, and chiefs of staff of the 101st, 102nd, and 103rd armies to come to the bunker meeting."

"Yes!" After saluting, the staff officer suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Comrade Commander, just got a report that the Chinese seem to have brought in a White Russian infantry army, and it is estimated that they will be used to lead the battle."

Barnov smiled wryly and said: "Using Russians to beat Russians, these Chinese have now learned all the skills of the Comintern! But their wishful thinking will not succeed, because Belarus will never have the knife to kill the Bolsheviks." The Bolsheviks are quick to kill the White Russians! We will kill all the White Russians soon, and if the Chinese want to take down the Borgia Fortress, they have to go into battle!"

However, Lieutenant General Barnov's expectations did not come true. The Chinese did not send Russian cannon fodder to the battlefield, nor did they personally go out. Instead, they bombarded with cannons and planes all day long!

……

10月13日上午7点30分。就在巴尔诺夫中将拒绝投降后的30分钟。中国炮兵开始发挥威力了。

As streaks of red light streaked across the sky, the outer positions of the 21st Army of the Soviet Red Army were suddenly filled with the flames of shells exploding. 150mm and 105mm howitzers, 75mm mountain guns, 70mm infantry guns, 88mm anti-aircraft guns, and 120mm heavy mortars fired from the trenches all threw their shells onto the first-line field positions of the Soviet Red Army.It exploded in the front, back, left, and right sides of the trench, setting off a cloud of smoke.

At this time, in the deep trench fortifications dug, 21 Soviet Red Army officers and soldiers are curled up and hiding at the bottom of the trench, some are shivering, some are muttering, and more are completely numb and resigned to fate.Anyway, their fate has already been determined by the great Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Either starve in collective farms, or be bombarded in this damned ditches, and die for the most magnificent cause of all mankind!From time to time, shells exploded in the trenches, and many officers and soldiers of the [-]st Army of the Soviet Army fell into this cold and wet ditch without even seeing the shadows of Chinese or White Russian infantry.And no one will shed a tear for them, nor pray for their souls except Empress Anastasia and their family...

The Chinese long-range heavy artillery is now mainly hitting the fortresses of the Borgia Fortress. The giant shells roared in the sky like a train speeding, and then there was a rumbling explosion like the sky falling apart, like a furious Thor. He was beating hard on the heads of Soviet officers and soldiers with his sledgehammer.If the 210mm shells hit the reinforced concrete fortifications of the Borgia Fortress, it would be fine. The people inside would be deafened by the huge explosion at most, and some people would bleed from their mouths and noses.If a 240mm shell hits the fortress, there will be cracks everywhere in the fortifications, and all the water in the reservoir will leak out.If it is hit by a giant 280mm shell, the fortification will become a pile of rubble!If it was hit by the shells fired by the two 380mm train guns, the entire shelter would become a deep pit with a diameter of more than ten meters, and everything inside would cease to exist.

There was also the sound of roaring engines and strange screams of planes dive-bombing in the sky, and a dark cloud seemed to fly over the Soviet front.Hundreds of A-4A Thunderhawk dive bombers were dispatched at the same time, dropping giant bombs one after another on places that looked like fort bunkers, turning the core area of ​​the entire Borgia Fortress into a pattern like the surface of the moon. It is full of shocking deep pits, and all life seems to have disappeared there.

In this way, this round of continuous shelling and bombing by the Chinese put great pressure on the Soviet Red Army defending Borja. 30 shells of various types and thousands of heavy bombs plowed the positions guarded by the Soviet Red Army repeatedly from front to back and from left to back. From day to night, the sound of artillery here lasted for 24 hours, as if the Chinese Just as ready to wipe Borgia off the map with a cannonball!In exchange for these 20 shells and thousands of heavy bombs, the defenders lost more than 20% of their combat effectiveness, and more than 5000 people were killed or injured in the artillery fire and explosions!There are still many people whose will to fight has been crushed by the bombardment, and they will only tremble in the trenches!Moreover, the originally imperfect defense system and obstacles were almost destroyed!The entire line of defense, except for the core fortress area, is almost naked facing the Chinese attacking army.

And the attack of infantry and tanks, this time has finally arrived!

……

October 1937, 10, was obviously a good day to be bombed!

Boom boom boom...

Countless shells also fell on the Yenisei River on this day, and exploded around the old Krasnoyarsk fortress!This scene made Sun Liren, who had just arrived in Krasnoyarsk, almost burst his eyeballs.The damn Soviet Red Army reacted too quickly, right?In less than three days, they transferred a large army from Novosibirsk, a thousand kilometers away, and these tireless "blue hats" immediately seized positions on the other side of the Yenisei River as soon as they got off the train, set up artillery, I don't know where I got a lot of small wooden boats... Then I started attacking without thinking! The 76.2mm shells were thrown down like no money, and nearly a thousand shells were dropped on the Star Fort built in 1820 on the east bank of the Yenisei River within three hours!

God!There is just a 100-year-old antique. Does it need such powerful artillery fire to destroy it?

It's fine if it's just artillery fire, and their infantry are charging almost non-stop. This "blue hat" doesn't seem to know what fatigue is, and he doesn't know what death is. He keeps rowing various small wooden boats, Staring at the dense rain of bullets, they charged towards the east bank of the Yenisei River.

Is this the true strength of the Soviet Internal Guard?I thought they were just executioners who could only shoot at their own people, but they were so brave and fearless!Stepping on the corpses of comrades-in-arms, charge without hesitation!If all the Soviet Red Army were so brave and tenacious, the outcome of this war would be hard to say.

"boom!"

Another shell exploded not far from Sun Liren's temporary headquarters, and several soldiers stationed were overturned by the blast. A burst of dust fell from the sky, which made Sun Liren calm down a little.

Although this antique fortress guards an important ferry on the Yenisei River, there is also a railway bridge of the Trans-Siberian Railway passing by the fortress.But now that the bridge has been blown up, this is not the only place where the river can be crossed. There is no need for the Soviet Red Army to sacrifice so many lives to cross here.So although the offensive here is fierce, it must be a feint. The opponent wants to firmly attract his attention, and then complete the rush elsewhere!

But the problem is that their own troops are too thin, and there is simply not enough troops to guard the too long river bank, so they can only concentrate on a short section near Krasnoyarsk.And here is of great significance to this lone army, because the Krasnoyarsk airport is less than 5 kilometers away. Once this place falls, the Soviet Red Army can mount artillery here to bombard it. At the airport, the escape route of the 8000 to [-] people will be cut off.

"Major Lu Fusheng! Take your battalion and search and patrol 20 kilometers north along the Yenisei River!"

"Major Xie Zhihan! You also lead people to search and patrol 20 kilometers south along the Yenisei River! Pay attention to the situation on the river and the opposite bank. If you find any signs of the Soviet army crossing the river, report it by radio immediately."

"Yes!" After saluting, the two majors who graduated from the seventh phase of Whampoa, turned around and left. Looking at the backs of the two young men in camouflage uniforms, Sun Liren showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.The "blue hat" on the opposite side is an elite, so why not his own paratroopers?If those blue hats were to be deployed to fight, and the artillery and tanks were used to cover the infantry for a frontal attack, I am afraid that thousands of people of my own would not be able to perform well, but if I were to fight jungle warfare in the dense forests of Siberia... Hehe, it would be 10 Soviets. The Red Army can't help themselves!The airborne troops of the National Defense Forces are specially used to perform special tasks, and each of them has received rigorous training in complex terrain and environments.

After watching the two leave, Sun Liren raised his binoculars and began to observe the scene on the river.There are so many "blue hats" of the Soviets!It seems that they can't kill them all. After one group dies, another group will come up. Maybe it's these people who go on and on?Their weapons are also very simple. Not only do they not have amazingly powerful automatic rifles, they don’t even have a submachine gun. They only have rifles and large turntable light machine guns. Shooting indiscriminately at himself.It's just that they couldn't hit people at all, and they didn't deploy many people on the embankment on the east bank of the Yenisei River.It was just snipers hiding on the commanding heights of the fortress and several buildings, and more than 100 paratroopers hiding behind the river embankment using Min 26 automatic rifles.

In the past, it would have been impossible for such a person to guard such a large section of the river bank, but now with this kind of automatic rifle with firepower no less than a light machine gun, it is different!Two or three hundred automatic rifles in the hands of elite paratroopers are enough to make any enemy who dares to approach pay the price of their lives!It was these people who cooperated with the snipers who were deployed at high places and specialized in attacking machine gunners, repelling the Soviet attack for a whole morning.At least 2000 people were killed and injured, but the opponent's attack showed no sign of exhaustion!

"Planes! Soviet planes! Air strikes! Air strikes!"

Just as Sun Liren was thinking about when he could kill more than [-] "blue hats", a shrill cry suddenly came from outside.He was so startled that he rushed out of the headquarters.
