Age of Conquest Reborn

The more than 300,000 troops of the Soviet Transcaucasus Military District were completely annihilated on the banks of the Selenge River in northern Outer Mongolia. Who is responsible for this?

Stalin, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union, began to look for reasons. The decision to send troops to Outer Mongolia was made by the entire Politburo. From this perspective, all Politburo members have responsibilities, but he zhidao, so-called The Politburo's resolution is just a reasonable cloak. It is Ziji who makes the decision, and the other Politburo members just echo it.

After much deliberation, Stalin felt that someone in Ruguo was really responsible for the annihilation of more than 300,000 troops in the Transcaucasus Military Region. Ziji was the first to be involved, and in the end, Ziji would be traced. Of course, Stalin Comrades cannot make mistakes. The greatest leader of the entire Soviet people cannot allow the slightest flaw." "Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!"

Of course, it is possible to find a scapegoat. For example, the frightened Chief of the General Staff Petroshilov, or Cheka Chairman Beria, who is becoming more and more disobedient and has some covert and covert acts, can be pushed out as a scapegoat, but , what Stalin didn’t want to do was that everyone was in danger. The huge Soviet Union still needed them to help themselves and be loyal followers. Otherwise, everyone was in danger and looked forward and backward. No one dared to take the burden. In the end, I was afraid that I would be alone. Got it!

Thinking of this, Stalin quietly loosened his clenched fists, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, as if suppressing the mixed thoughts in his heart, and still said calmly: "Okay, comrades, Transcaucasia The matter in the military region cannot be undone. There is no need for us to waste time on this matter. Comrade Beria, please review the families of all officers who surrendered to the enemy in the Transcaucasus Military Region. Your Counterrevolutionary Committee must immediately start an investigation!"

Beria's eyes shone, and he stood up vigorously and replied: "Yes, Comrade Stalin, we have started working. I will report the final review results to all members of the Political Bureau!"

In the office, all the members of the Politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union breathed a huge sigh of relief. The murderous intention in Comrade Stalin's heart just now was enriched by these political struggles. People who have experienced the ups and downs within the party are keenly aware that everyone's My heart was in my throat, fearing that Comrade Stalin would use him as a scapegoat to pay for the annihilation of the troops of the Transcaucasian Military District.

Well now, Comrade Stalin obviously did not want to delve into this matter, and everyone escaped another disaster. The happiest person is Marshal Petroshilov, Chief of the General Staff, who is the chief military officer. There are more than 300,000 people in the Transcaucasus Military Region. The army was defeated in Outer Mongolia, and Ziji had an unshirkable responsibility. If he took a human head to thank the people of the country and bear the blame for the leader, Ziji's head was not only suitable, but also weighty enough.

Beria, who was in high spirits, could not have imagined that at that moment, Zijiyijing had become one of Comrade Stalin's scapegoat choices. He was immersed in the excitement of having work to do. As a special organization like the Cheka, The overall leader of the country can only demonstrate the value of its existence by constantly capturing the enemies of the country.

The other members of the Politburo felt a chill in their hearts when they saw Beria with gleaming eyes. This guy looked like a hungry wolf who smelled the smell of blood. How many people there were?

Their families were ruined, poor officers of the Transcaucasian Military District!

Stalin saw the reactions of all the Politburo members and continued calmly: "We cannot make the same mistake twice in a row. What is the current situation of the Far Eastern Front troops in eastern Outer Mongolia? That

The commander of the team is named Yemenchenko. Do you have a report on the situation?"

This was said to Marshal Petroshilov, Chief of General Staff, who had never dared to sit down and was standing upright in the middle of the office.

Marshal Petroshilov's nerves that had just relaxed tightened again, and he quickly replied: "Comrade Stalin, an hour ago, the General Staff received a telegram from Lieutenant General Yemenchenko. To be honest, the situation is very unpleasant.

Well, the Third Army to which it belonged was ambushed by another unit of the Independent Division on the west bank of the Urez River. After all its losses, the remaining three army units immediately retreated along the same route as ordered by the headquarters."

"However, along the way, we were constantly attacked from two sides by the Independent Division troops. In addition, the Independent Division troops were chasing behind us. The battle was always in the jinhang. The losses of the Far East Front troops were increasing every hour.

Still unable to get rid of the enemy's entanglement and pursuit, Lieutenant General Yemenchenko's situation is very bad. Currently, the troops are retreating to the area west of the Onen River, which is still more than a hundred kilometers away from the Onen River!"

Stalin took a breath of air. The experience of the Far Eastern Front troops was very similar to that of the Transcaucasus Military Region troops. They were both besieged on three sides, leaving a way out, and then continued to attack. Tang Qiuli fought two battles at the same time in different areas.

In a large-scale battle, a large number of troops were probably used. Was it his general who attacked Yemenchenko's troops?

"Comrade Petroshilov, in the eastern part of Outer Mongolia, which unit of the Independent Division is fighting our Far Eastern Front? Who is the supreme commander? What is the combat effectiveness and equipment level of the unit? How many troops are there?" Stalin's question, a

Like a barrage of cannons, they hit Marshal Petroshilov.

Marshal Petroshilov smiled bitterly and replied: "Comrade Stalin, according to the information obtained by the Military Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff Headquarters, we only know that the troops fighting with our army are the troops from the Northeast Advance Command of the Independent Division. Commander

His name is Liu Tiehan, with the rank of Army Lieutenant General. This unit was originally in a confrontation with the Japanese Kwantung Army in the western Liaoning area of ​​Manchuria. The rest of the situation is unknown at the moment!"

Stalin's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty. How could Turan in western Liaoning, Manchuria, travel to the eastern part of Outer Mongolia? That was a journey of six to seven hundred kilometers. He wanted to ask Petroshilov this question, but when he saw his blank look in his eyes,

, zhidao asked in vain, the current situation of the General Directorate of Military Intelligence is similar to that of a blind man or a deaf man.

Stalin looked at Beria again, hoping that the Cheka's intelligence system would give him the answer. However, Beria avoided his gaze. Deep in Stalin's heart, he felt extremely disappointed again.

Not to mention, Beria has more information than the General Directorate of Military Intelligence. At least, how many troops are Liu Tiehan's troops? However, Beria is determined that more is worse than less. Look at the joke of the General Staff Everything in my heart that I never wanted to know was shaken out.

Stalin's throat was a little salty. The situation of the Far East Front troops was definitely extremely dangerous. That Tang Qiuli could set a trap for Ziji. There was no guarantee that he would not set another trap. The Independent Division advanced northeastward to the headquarters.

It is another main force of Tang Qiuli, and its target is the reinforcements from the Far East Front to reinforce the troops of the Transcaucasus Military Region.

The biggest problem now is that Yemenchenko's troops are clearly in danger, but they watch helplessly and are helpless. Ziji can no longer send troops to come to the rescue. Zhukov will not accept it. Ruguo will mobilize troops from the Far East Front again.

, once the Japanese Kwantung Army takes advantage of the situation, Zhukov will be in danger.

Could it be that the Outer Mongolia campaign launched by Ziji this time will end in failure with the loss of more than 500,000 troops? Stalin thought painfully.

Stalin waved his hands feebly and said: "Adjourn the meeting, Comrade Petroshilov, you send a telegram to Comrade Yemenchenko, ordering him to retreat as quickly as possible and not to be entangled by the Independent Division troops, and

, remind him to pay attention to the situation along the Onen River and not to repeat the mistakes of the Transcaucasus Military District troops. Comrade Molotov stays!"

Everyone else respectfully exited the office, leaving only Stalin and Molotov.

Molotov looked at Stalin's pale face and asked cautiously: "Comrade Stalin, do you have anything to tell me?"

Stalin could not hide his tired look and said: "Comrade Molotov, let me think about it. You should go to Kulun to negotiate with Tang Qiuli and try to ask them to release all the captured soldiers of the Transcaucasus Military Region.

As for the conditions for negotiation, you can decide according to the situation after you arrive in Kulun!"

"Comrade Molotov, I have no choice but to deal with the greedy and cunning Chinese Tang Qiuli as long as I have the yidian son. However, we are in the east and cannot have mobile forces. We only have Zhukov's Far East Front."

, we also have to deal with the Japanese Kwantung Army. Once a war breaks out in other armies, we will be too passive. Those captured soldiers can still serve the Soviet Union as long as they strengthen their political and ideological education!"

Molotov groaned as if he had toothache, and said with a troubled face: "Comrade Stalin, I understand your intention, but I remind you that we initiated the Second Outer Mongolia War first. Ruguo Tang Qiu

If Tang Qiuli simply refuses to negotiate, what should we do? Therefore, I personally think that the kenengability of negotiations is minimal!"

"In the first Outer Mongolia War, we paid a huge price for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were surrounded. This time, the battle in eastern Outer Mongolia is still going on. Tang Qiuli's troops clearly have the upper hand. What do you think?

, does that Chinese person have the keneng to negotiate with us?"

Stalin was silent for a while. What Molotov said was all true. The current war situation in Ruguo, if Ziji has the upper hand, let alone negotiation, will not even give the Chinese a chance to survive.

There will be no, and moreover, they will squeeze out the last blood of the Chinese people and get everything they can. Only after meeting Ziji's requirements and for the sake of greater interests, will Keneng sit at the negotiating table.

.

"Is Ziji a little wishful thinking?" With a silent wave of his hand, Molotov exited the office, leaving Stalin with an ugly face, staring blankly at the noon sunshine outside the window.
