Age of Conquest Reborn

The officials around Sheng Shicai shouted, "Supervisor Sheng doesn't have many opportunities to treat guests. All year round, eating the big guy's business and eating his old man's food is more difficult than cutting off the body. Think about it, I was ready to run away just now, blink of an eye."

Suddenly, the dark clouds dispersed and the sun shone brightly. There are no greater ups and downs in life than this. Supervisor Sheng was happy, and of course everyone was relaxed. All the officials, laughing and joking, got into their cars and drove away...

Sheng Shicai, who was in a good mood, had just stepped out of the car when he received a report from the chief of staff of the Supervisory Office, "Chen Bing's Northwest Five Horse Troops on the Hami front line had evacuated Xingxing Gorge thirty minutes ago and returned to their original station before leaving.

Before that, the commander of his team, Chief of Staff Ganma, sent a letter."

"The letter says that this long-distance pull of the five-horse army is under the order of Vice Chairman Tang of the National Political and Military Commission to exercise the cooperation and maneuverability of the northwest military joint defense departments. The purpose is to train the actual combat capabilities of the local troops in the five northwest provinces.

, prepare to resist the Soviet attack on the northwest, because it is a matter of confidentiality, the matter has not been reported, please forgive me, Supervisor Sheng!"

Sheng Shicai curled his lips and said in his heart: "What about going to graves and burning newspapers to fool the devil? How can these fat tycoons from the Northwest Wuma have such knowledge? Besides, with their family backgrounds, they don't dare to go to Xinjiang Province.

You are so arrogant on the ground, isn't it because you have Tang Qiuli backing you up, training your troops, nonsense, it's not just putting pressure on yourself!"

However, it would be best for the Five Horses in the Northwest to withdraw their troops, which would take out a thorn in the heart. Otherwise, they should stay at the junction of Xinjiang Province and Gansu Province. Sheng Shicai has nothing to do. They are acting under orders, and Xinjiang Province is still in the territory of the Communist Party of China.

Internally, there is no official reason for requesting the withdrawal of troops, but hundreds of thousands of soldiers from other forces are around. Who knows when they will pounce on them, take a bite, and sleep peacefully?

Everyone who had to leave left, and the dark clouds hanging over their heads cleared. That night, the most luxurious hotel in Dihua was filled with distinguished guests. Prominent people in Dihua City, including military and political leaders, all attended the banquet hosted by Governor Sheng.

Sheng Shicai, who was the protagonist of the banquet, got very drunk amidst the compliments.

On the Saiyinshanda battlefield in southern Outer Mongolia, some changes occurred. More than 500,000 troops from the three armies of the Soviet Outer Mongolia Front braved the indiscriminate bombings of Liu Cuigang's Northern Flying Group bombers and fighter groups and marched forcefully regardless of casualties.

, at about 8:00 a.m. on April 9th, we arrived at a distance of more than 140 kilometers from the first line of defense outside Seyinshanda. According to the current marching speed of the Soviet army, we would be able to compete with Reading Force on the evening of April 10th.

Firefight between the defenders on the division's first line of defense.

When the news reached Saiyin Shanda, the atmosphere in the Reading Division headquarters immediately became tense. Division Commander Tang Qiuli was in the office, talking with Shan Hu and Chu Tian who had returned to the army.

On the plane back to Saiyinshanda, Shanhu thought about it all the way and figured out something. He probably felt that he was a little reckless this time, so when he returned to the headquarters, he said hello without waiting for Tang Qiuli to glare.

Several special guards moved a box full of gold given by Sheng Shicai into Tang Qiuli's office.

"Reporting to the division commander, Huang Shanhu, captain of the guard brigade, has completed the task of rescuing the special operations detachment and returned to the team smoothly. He also raised 350 taels of gold for the army as military pay. Please accept it, commander!" Shanhu said with a smile, completely ignoring it.

Tang Qiuli's face was tense.

Chu Tian was not as casual as Shan Hu. He lowered his head and followed Shan Hu without saying a word. He was already mentally prepared to be punished or dismissed from his post and investigated. Not to mention killing Sheng Shicai, he was planning to kill Sheng Shicai.

Being surrounded in Kazakhstan this time was enough for the teacher to get angry!

Tang Qiuli stared at Shan Hu and Chu Tian and didn't say anything for a long time. From the bottom of his heart, he really didn't know what to say. At this moment, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe hurriedly came in and said, "Commander, please continue."

According to the report of the reconnaissance force, the three Soviet armies have more than 500,000 troops. Regardless of the air strikes of the Northern Flying Group, they have now advanced to the Altan Shire area. They are still more than 140 years away from our first line of defense.

Kilometers of distance!”

Tang Qiuli withdrew his gaze from Shan Hu and Chu Tian, ​​and said fiercely: "I will take care of you two when I have time. Chu Tian, ​​stop poking around here. Go back to the army quickly, rest as soon as possible, and wait for me.

Order!"

Shan Hu didn't care at all, but Chu Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I've escaped this violent training!" He secretly rejoiced, and after hurriedly saluting, he hurried away, and Shan Hu also smiled secretly and ran away.

Tang Qiuli and Zhao Yuhe were the only two people left in the office. From other rooms, the sound of "tick-tock-tick!" came from the keys, adding to the tense atmosphere.

Tang Qiuli asked: "Yuhe, the Soviet troops advancing to the Altan Shire area do not have heavy equipment to follow them? Are there armored units to follow? How long will it take to approach our first line of defense?"

"

Zhao Yuhe looked through the intelligence in his hand and replied: "The situation is like this. According to the report of the reconnaissance unit, the Soviet troops on the forced march left a large amount of heavy equipment behind, because Commander Liu's troops

The air strikes were intensive, and the Soviet tank troops suffered heavy losses. They could not keep up with the infantry. According to the current marching speed of the Soviet army, they will exchange fire with my troops on the first line of defense at around six o'clock tomorrow evening at the latest!"

Tang Qiuli looked at the military map of Outer Mongolia and didn't speak for a long time. His eyes were shining with thought and his face was calm. It seemed that the news did not have a big impact on him. In other words, the approaching half a million Soviet troops did not affect him.

as expected.

Zhao Yuhe became a little anxious and suggested: "Division commander, the current position of the Soviet vanguard force happens to be within the left and right attack range of the 1st to 6th brigades of the directly affiliated corps. I think we should order the troops to attack this night tonight

, launch a sudden attack on the Soviet army to slow down the Soviet army's advance. In addition, armored troops should be dispatched to give the Soviet army a head-on blow in the Altanshire area!"

"The Soviet army does not have armored troops and heavy equipment to follow. We also have the cooperation of the aviation force. This is a perfect opportunity to defeat the Soviet army. Otherwise, when the follow-up troops of the Soviet Outer Mongolia Front arrive, there will be no such good opportunity!"

Tang Qiuli shook his head gently and said calmly: "The 1st to 6th brigades remained stationary and ordered Liu Cuigang's Northern Flying Group to focus on air strikes on the three Soviet armies and Niangzi Pass on the first line of defense.

Troops from the six brigades of the garrison corps, retreat to the second line of defense!"

Zhao Yuhe was taken aback and said hurriedly: "Commander, no! Behind the second line of defense, less than 40 kilometers away, is Saiyinsanda. If we don't frustrate the Soviet army with the first line of defense, the battle behind will be difficult to fight!"

With a playful smile on his lips, Tang Qiuli said: "Yuhe, I said that the battle of Seyinshanda may not be fought. Now it seems that it will definitely not be fought. Okay, Yuhe

, it’s nothing to make a fuss about, the Soviet army is in a hurry to advance, so let’s give way, don’t fight them desperately, just convey the order!”

Zhao Yuhe still wanted to stick to his opinion, but looking at the teacher's face, it was calm but unquestionable. When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. He couldn't guess the teacher's real intention. Why was he so sure that Seyin Shanda couldn't fight?

, could it be related to what the division commander once said about the actions of the Germans?

Zhao Yuhe left with full of doubts. Tang Qiuli himself was left in the house. The cold north wind picked up the dead leaves and grass, swirling and flying aimlessly in the yard.

It's early April, and the prairie of Outer Mongolia is still chilly, without any hint of spring.

The day that can change the overall situation of the world is coming soon. It is now around nine o'clock in the morning on April 9th. The time when Hitler decided to take action against the Soviets was at dawn on April 10th. This is different from what is recorded in history.

The same thing, but the difference is that the date of the attack was postponed for a whole year, and it was not moved to June 22 in history, but to April 10. All of this changed because of myself.

According to normal circumstances, tonight, no later than midnight, the German General Staff will send a top-secret telegram to itself in accordance with Hitler's order, informing him of the specific attack time, so just wait patiently!

Therefore, Tang Qiuli did not take it to heart when the three Soviet armies, with more than 500,000 troops, approached the vicinity of Saiyin Shanda. Time was not on the side of the Soviets. The sound of artillery at dawn on April 10th would destroy the enemy in the east.

All Soviet troops should be pulled back towards Europe, otherwise Stalin would have no choice but to abandon the European part and escape.

Hitler's attack on the Soviets not only prevented a major war, but also brought a glimmer of hope to the desperate Japanese Kwantung Army. Otherwise, under the siege of more than four million Soviet troops, the Kwantung Army would not be able to hold on.

It's been a few days.

Tang Qiuli praised the Kwantung Army's combat effectiveness. He was attacked from all sides and was able to persist until now. He was quite brave. According to Tang Qiuli's idea, it would be best for Zhukov to defeat the entire Japanese Kwantung Army.

destroyed, its

The subsequent battle to regain the Northeast will be much easier to fight. However, if the Soviet army does not deal with the Japanese Kwantung Army tonight, it will never have a chance. As soon as the Soviet-German war artillery fires, Stalin will transfer all the troops back.

.

At this moment, Tang Qiuli is in a very happy mood. The layout of the Far East is being realized step by step according to his own vision. The layout of the previous few years has only been harvested today. As for the subsequent plans for Japan

There were not many obstacles in the Kwantung Army's war. The Japanese Kwantung Army was already a dog with its back broken. Even if it was lucky enough not to be destroyed by Zhukov this time, it would suffer heavy losses and its vitality would be severely damaged.

"It seems that I have to thank Stalin for taking action and creating convenient conditions for the future recovery of Northeast China. I competed with the Soviet Army and the Japanese Kwantung Army in Outer Mongolia and the Far East. In the end, I was the one who took advantage!" I thought!

Here, Tang Qiuli smiled calmly and looked across the sky at the battlefield in the Far East where the Soviet army and the Japanese Kwantung Army were fighting.
