Age of Conquest Reborn

The private plane was very quiet, with only the faint sound of the engine coming. Tang Qiuli closed his eyes and filtered the situation he had just received in his mind. All the appearances were connected together, and he smelled a hint of uneasiness.

.

Why do Soviet reconnaissance planes keep appearing in the skies over Outer Mongolia recently? If they are just for reconnaissance, what does Stalin want to know?

Is it the deployment of troops of the ** Division in Outer Mongolia, or the defense situation. Stalin urgently needs to know these situations. What does he want to do?

The "New Sino-Soviet Agreement on Outer Mongolia" was signed a few years ago. In terms of the status of the treaty, it is impossible for Stalin to be unclear. Outer Mongolia has been included in the territory of the Republic of China. More than one million Kwantung Army troops are stationed along the outer Xing'an Mountains.

, the Soviet Far East Front, which contained Zhukov, had more than two million troops. Even if Stalin did not give up on Outer Mongolia and tried to regain the territory, he would have no mobile troops available in Outer Mongolia and the Far East.

If Stalin really dared to use the forces of the Far East Front to attack Outer Mongolia, the Japanese Kwantung Army would never miss this opportunity. Stalin was not that stupid. What's more, on the front line of the Xing'an Mountains, the Soviet army and the Japanese army could not escape.

.

Unless Stalin believes that the threat from Germany will not happen in a short time, the German army is fighting in the UK. If we want to completely defeat the US-British coalition and occupy the British Isles, it will not be completed within one or two years.

Yes, during this period, the Soviet Union could temporarily mobilize most of its troops from the European direction, and after retaking the land of Outer Mongolia, it could then withdraw its defenses from the European direction and alert the German army.

This can explain the abnormal phenomenon that the reconnaissance aircraft of the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region are constantly monitoring the situation in Outer Mongolia. The next question is that if the Soviet army makes any changes, it will be a prelude to a big war. The Outer Mongolia Border Guard Force

Commander Sun Zhenbang, why didn't he report it to the division headquarters? Was it because he didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, or was unaware of it, or...?

Of course, Tang Qiuli would not doubt Sun Zhenbang's loyalty, nor was he willing to doubt it. He still knew Sun Zhenbang very well, but things were so weird that he couldn't help but have a few more question marks in his mind.

Finally, is the current situation in Outer Mongolia really as calm as it appears? Maybe. Just like the surface of a frozen river. Under the ice, there are turbulent undercurrents. The Soviets are very likely to secretly cultivate pro-Soviet forces in Outer Mongolia to come up with a plan.

What kind of trick like a referendum was used to incite foreign independence under the guise of the public opinion of the people in Outer Mongolia. The problems that followed. Shen Jun's investigation office has a branch in Outer Mongolia. After discovering the problem, why didn't it report it?

?

In other words, after reporting to the Investigation Division headquarters, Shen Jun deliberately concealed it and did not want to let himself know. So what was his purpose?

There is also Yu Deshui's intelligence office, which also has an extensive intelligence network in Outer Mongolia. Why didn't Yu Deshui disclose relevant information? Did he also intentionally conceal it?

By the same token, Tang Qiuli would not doubt the loyalty of Shen Jun and Yu Deshui. Summarizing all the analyses, Tang Qiuli painfully discovered that he had no clue. If the speculation was true, it would involve the assassin

Among the three important officials, one is Major General Sun Zhenbang, commander of the Outer Mongolia Border Defense Force of the ** Division and chairman of the Outer Mongolia Military and Political Committee. He controls a powerful army.

The two are his confidants, Colonel Shen Jun, director of the division's investigation department, and Colonel Yu Deshui, director of the intelligence department. One of them is the counterintelligence and head of the internal security department of the ** division, and the other is the intelligence department of the ** division.

The leader, who controls the entire intelligence network of the army, is the two sharp swords in Tang Qiuli's hands.

If there is any abnormality between the heads of these two important departments, it will be a different disaster for the military commander. Then, Tang Qiuli shook his head and overturned his somewhat neurotic judgment. Tang Qiuli was doubtful.

The loyalty of these two people to themselves.

In addition, there is another possibility. Whether it is Sun Zhenbang, the branch of the Investigation Department in Outer Mongolia, or the branch of the Intelligence Department in Outer Mongolia, they have discovered the problem and are working on solving it. If the problem is not solved,

Before, he didn't want to report it to the division headquarters. Tang Qiuli would rather believe this than suspect that something went wrong in other aspects. If that was the case, it would be an absolutely heavy blow to himself!

No matter what, after seeing Sun Zhenbang, everything became clear. Tang Qiuli suddenly felt that the flying speed of the special plane was unbearably slow. He couldn't help but frown, but felt very confused inside.

Mei Xue saw her husband's face changing constantly, and there seemed to be a hint of worry between her eyebrows. She asked with concern: "Qiu Li, are you feeling uncomfortable there?" As she said that, she gently stroked his forehead with her hand.

Try the temperature.

Tang Qiuli forced a smile and said: "Xue, it's nothing, I just remembered some past events and felt something in my heart!"

The smart Mei Xue instinctively felt that her husband's words were somewhat insincere and not as simple as what he said. However, she did not continue to ask further questions. She just rolled her big watery eyes and thought about what?

The sky is long with yellow grass and the sky is clear. Under the autumn sunshine in Outer Mongolia, the Gobi Desert flashes under the wing of the plane. On the far horizon, more than twenty small black dots suddenly appear. In the blink of an eye, they are in front of the special plane. The loudspeaker in the cabin

A voice came from the device, "Reporting to the division commander, the First Battalion of the 1st Fighter Regiment of the Outer Mongolia Cruise Area of ​​the Northern Aviation Group has been ordered to escort the division commander's special plane and pay tribute to the division commander! Lieutenant Colonel Hu Xintian!"

Tang Qiuli said gently: "Captain Hu, you have worked hard. I would like to express my gratitude to the pilots in the Outer Mongolia cruise area!"

A fighter group from the Northern Flying Group's Outer Mongolia cruise area immediately deployed in escort formation on the right wing of Tang Qiuli's special plane, and a group of fighter jets from the Southern Flying Group, one on the left and one on the right, jointly protected the safety of the special plane.

On the way to Cullen, nothing unexpected happened, and it was impossible to happen. That afternoon, after more than four hours of flight, the special plane landed at Cullen Field Airport. At this time, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, on an autumn day.

Outside the fortress, the sunset was extremely early. When the special plane was taxiing up, the sun was already setting. The western sky was covered with fiery clouds, red like a burning flame.

Because before Tang Qiuli took off from Jinzhou, he had already informed Sun Zhenbang by telegram that he would come to inspect Outer Mongolia this time and try to keep it as confidential as possible, and not hold any fanfare or large-scale welcome ceremony. It was neither liked nor necessary.

Therefore, at the field airport outside Kulun, there was no ceremony, no guard of honor, no large welcoming crowd, and no extravagance of police cars clearing the way. Those who came to the airport to greet Tang Qiuli were a group of Outer Mongolia border guards headed by Sun Zhenbang.

There are two military and political officials from the Mongolian Military and Administrative Management Committee, and then there are the department heads of other branches of the ** Division stationed in Outer Mongolia.

Major General Sun Zhenbang stepped forward with excitement, stood at attention, saluted, and said loudly: "Reporting to the division commander, Sun Zhenbang, commander of the Outer Mongolia Border Defense Force of the ** Division and chairman of the Outer Mongolia Military and Political Committee, led all department heads and commanders of each unit to welcome the division commander

Come to Kulun! All the soldiers of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard pay tribute to the division commander!"

Tang Qiuli returned the salute with a smile, and glanced at the people in front of him one by one. Most of them were old faces. They were the commanders who guarded Outer Mongolia after the bloody battle with the Japanese North China Front in the Pingjin area. Among them, there was the ** Division

Major General Liu Chun, commander of the cavalry and commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade, Major General Tong Batu, commander of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade, Zeng Shiqiang, commander of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade, Wu Kefan, commander of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, Li Changjiang, Commander of the 5th Cavalry Brigade and others are all*

*The teacher’s old man.

There is also Bagena, the former commander of the Puppet Mongolian Cavalry Brigade. During the Battle of Chahar, he was recruited by Tong Batu. Now he is the commander of the Sixth Cavalry Brigade. It can be said that all the cavalry units of the ** Division are recovering.

After Outer Mongolia, they all stayed in the Outer Mongolia grassland and were incorporated into the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army, forming the backbone of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army. Tang Qiuli could safely hand over Outer Mongolia to Sun Zhenbang. Liu Chun's cavalry troops were here as well.

an important factor.

Tang Qiuli looked at these old subordinates whom he had not seen for several years. He did not shake hands with them in a formal way, but gave these commanders a warm hug in turn. When he hugged Sun Zhenbang, Sun Zhenbang almost shed tears.

, choked and said: "Commander, you left us in Outer Mongolia for several years. I don't know how much we miss the years of fighting with you!"

Sun Zhenbang's words made Tang Qiuli blame himself secretly. What he was worried about on the special plane did not exist at all, and he could not even doubt it. From Sun Zhenbang's trembling body, Tang Qiuli could feel the excitement from his heart.

, without any pretense, if he is a person with ulterior motives, he will never have such a sincere emotional outburst, unless he is a talented actor!

Thinking about it, after withdrawing from Outer Mongolia, he did not come back even once for several years. After various units of the ** division were equipped with a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, his attention to the cavalry seemed to be almost over.

I have forgotten that such a group of men on horseback guard a territory in the north for themselves without any regrets. Do you know their dedication and hard work?

Tang Qiuli's chest felt hot, and there seemed to be an emotion erupting, and he said loudly: "I'm sorry, everyone, I made you stay outside the Great Wall for several years. Since ancient times, the Great Wall has been a bitter and cold place, not as good as the Splendid Jiangnan. However,

I can tell from your faces and energy that the milk tea and hand-meat meat on the grasslands of Outer Mongolia are very nourishing! You all eat strong and strong, and you have the aura of Mongolian men all over your body, which is very good!"

"This is my Tang Qiuli's cavalry. You are all local cowards. I also want to ask, how will you entertain me today? By the way, as long as you have the meat!"
