Age of Conquest Reborn
Chapter 2228 Relief
General Zhukov, the commander of the Soviet Far Eastern Front Army, had infinite regrets in his heart. Four years ago, he commanded more than one million soldiers of the Far Eastern Front Army. In this vast land, he fought countless battles with the Japanese Kwantung Army.
He displayed his military commanding talents to the fullest, overwhelming the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Nanjiro, and maintaining his strategic advantage.
Later, as the Germans suddenly attacked the Soviet Union, the war situation in the Far East took a turn for the worse. Millions of troops had to evacuate the Far East hastily. Subsequently, the Far Eastern Front Army was surrounded by Japanese troops, with more than 1.3 million troops.
The Far East Front Army was beaten down to less than 700,000 troops. More than half of the troops were lost and their vitality was severely damaged. I am afraid it is not much better than the previous Kwantung Army?
Zhukov was unwilling to give in. If Comrade Stalin hadn't insisted on moving millions of Soviet troops in the Far East back to Europe, how could the war situation in the Far East evolve to the current level? Therefore, the Far East Front was heavily surrounded by the Japanese army.
Zhukov did not think that it was a mistake in his command, but that the general strategic direction of the headquarters had affected him. If there had not been the fact that the German army invaded the Soviet Union, in time, the Far East Front would still be a powerful force!
"After this, there is no possibility of returning to the Far East!" He sighed, which meant that the power of the Soviet Union had been uprooted from this land, although the specific content of the negotiations reached between Moscow and Tang Qiuli was not known.
,However, with experience, Zhu
He can conclude that the Soviet Union will pay a heavy price for this. Otherwise, with Tang Qiuli's ruthlessness and sophistication in using troops, the two front armies that returned to support, intentionally or unintentionally, would still be in the Japanese army at this moment.
On the blocking line, it was a bloody blow!
And Vasilevsky's I don't have that front army, and I'm afraid I'm still wandering in the vast and desolate land of Outer Mongolia at this moment. Tang Qiuli single-handedly controlled the eastern battlefield, mastering the rhythm of this battlefield, whether it was Prince Zai Ren
Still, he, the commanders of the other three front armies, and even Comrade Stalin were all pawns in the Chinese Far East chess game.
The contrast between the general's unlimited ambitions and the cruel reality, and his inability to change the reality, made Zhukov feel a little unmotivated for a moment. Moreover, he absolutely believed that Tang Qiuli's appetite was the largest not only in the Far East, but also overseas in Japan.
The occupied areas of Manchuria were all within his plan. Wherever the Chinese looked, the vast Asian part of the Soviet Union had probably already been within his ambition to conquer?
The intensive gunshots outside the shelter were coming one after another. In the dark night, the Japanese army continued to attack the Soviet positions. The battle was as fierce as ever. After a few hours, the gunfire on the battlefield subsided, and the Japanese army was like the ebbing sea water.
It seemed like it was hidden in the dark night, with only the pervasive smell of gunpowder smoke gradually dissipating in the evening breeze from the south.
Everything is as expected. This is the last attack of the Japanese army, just like the performance before the curtain call. Probably all the Japanese troops have withdrawn at this moment, although this kind of performance is so ridiculous in Zhukov's eyes.
and clumsy, even able to outline a specific detail, but Zhukov could only be an honest spectator, unable to do anything, and did not dare to do anything, allowing the Japanese to leave thinking they had succeeded.
Zhukov's mood was bitter. He could not compete with the Japanese and Tang Qiuli in the Far East to preserve this rich and vast land for the Soviet Union. He would regret it for the rest of his life. He did not leave his hiding place.
The shelter department did not even care about the casualties caused by the Japanese attack on the troops. They just sat in the dark shelter department, submerged in boundless darkness, until Chief of Staff Godaev came in.
Lieutenant General Godayav, the chief of staff, looked at the commander in the dark corner in surprise. His figure was so lonely and lonely. After a moment of silence, he said: "Comrade Commander, the Japanese attack was repelled by us. Not only
In this way, the troops in several directions have recovered previously lost positions, the core defense circle has been restored to its original state, and the morale of the troops is very high. Comrades, please return to the headquarters!"
Zhukov stood up silently, walked out of the shelter without saying a word, and looked into the dark distance. Chief of Staff Godaev noticed that Comrade Commander's eyes were always looking towards Manchuria!
It was daybreak, and just as Zhukov had asserted, the Japanese troops evacuated cleanly overnight. The Soviet soldiers were surprised to find that when they opened their eyes every day, they saw khaki figures swinging across the street.
, disappeared completely, there was no more harsh howling of Japanese in my ears, and there was no trace of the shells flying in the sky. This morning was quiet and peaceful.
The battlefield was so quiet that the Soviet soldiers almost suspected that they were dreaming. For a long time, along with the breakfast that could only maintain the minimum physical strength, came the Japanese artillery shells, "The Japanese have withdrawn!" "The Japanese army ran away."
It's over!" Exciting news spread among the soldiers one by one, and many soldiers ran around in the trenches to tell each other. The nightmare was gone, and every soldier felt the excitement of surviving the disaster.
Of course, Soviet officers at all levels were not dazzled by superficial phenomena like the soldiers. They still maintained due caution and vigilance. While ordering the soldiers to continue to maintain combat status, they also dispatched small groups of capable troops.
He ventured towards the direction of the Japanese army's position to find out the reconnaissance situation. Soon, news from all aspects came back, "Report to the headquarters, the Japanese army in the reconnaissance direction of my reconnaissance unit has disappeared. Our unit is continuing to conduct in-depth reconnaissance!"
"Reporting to the commander, I am the reconnaissance brigade directly under the military headquarters. The four squadrons of our brigade are divided into four directions and are more than 20 kilometers away from our army's positions. Wherever we go, no traces of Japanese soldiers are found.
What you see along the way are all military items abandoned by the Japanese army, and in the direction leading to the Burya Mountains, there are traces of the passage of a large number of infantry and heavy equipment. The specific situation is under further reconnaissance and verification!"
It was finally certain that the Japanese troops who had surrounded him for more than ten days were all evacuated overnight. The news spread among the soldiers. There were cheers on the position, and many Soviet soldiers crawled out of the muddy trenches.
Standing under the bright sunshine, breathing in the air without the smell of gunpowder smoke, the surviving soldiers of the Soviet Far East Front were immersed in a sea of joy.
In the headquarters of the Far East Front, Zhukov did not read the telegrams reported by each group army about the withdrawal of the Japanese army. As expected, he was not interested. On the phone, he gave each group army troops the order to deploy the evacuation. Zhukov
The regulations are very detailed, and the two most important ones are about the order for the wounded to evacuate before the troops, and then there are the issues of identity registration and on-site burial of the bodies of fallen soldiers.
The Soviet commanders at all levels were very moved by the fact that the commander of the front army personally intervened in such a small matter. Throughout the morning, the Soviet Far East Front army was busy and orderly preparing to leave the blood-soaked battlefield.
preparation work in all aspects.
New graves stand tall on the muddy land that still retains ice and snow in the Far East in early spring. After more than ten days of defensive battles, surrounded by superior Japanese forces, the Soviet Far East Front paid a heavy price, with more than 60 casualties.
Ten thousand
Among them, more than 300,000 were killed in the battle. There were so many soldiers who died in the battle that there was no time or material to carve a wooden tombstone. Instead, on the undulating cemetery, in front of each tomb, a hat with a red five-pointed headstone was placed.
Star Helmet.
Under the bright sunshine in the early spring of the Far East, the red stars, like dots of blood, are shockingly spread out on the earth. More than 300,000 fresh lives are lying on the land of the Far East forever because of Stalin's lustful order.
There is not even a tombstone on the gravestone, let alone a name. They are just pitifully simple mounds, proving that the past lives carried souls far away from their hometown and floating in the sky of foreign lands, and had an elusive destination.
Zhukov led hundreds of senior officers and stood for a long time in front of a cemetery that was undulating like waves. The surviving Soviet soldiers on the battlefield raised their guns one after another and fired bullets into the blue sky. In this way,
Farewell to their comrades, the sound of gunfire was like a wave, drifting into the distance in the wind on the sunny Far East land. I wonder if the Japanese soldiers who were evacuating in a panic would be extremely nervous after hearing this burst of gunfire!
Near noon, the leading troops of the Soviet Union's Outer Xing'anling Front, two mechanized corps, arrived at the Far East battlefield and joined forces with the Soviet Far East Front. Hundreds of tanks were arranged in a battle formation and rushed towards them with murderous intent. Behind them were
Thousands of trucks loaded with soldiers, the commander of the front army, General Gregariff, gave the order to the vanguard: "At any cost, tear a hole in the Japanese encirclement!"
These two Soviet mechanized armies came with the idea of a fierce fight. However, the expected fierce battle did not happen. Not a single Japanese soldier was seen. The Far East Front Army came to greet them.
Contact the officers and tell them, "Last night, the Japanese ran away long ago. They were scared away by our powerful reinforcements!"
The situation was quickly reported to the commander of the Outer Xing'an Mountains Front, General Gregariff. At this point, he was completely relieved and the Japanese army suddenly withdrew from the siege. Although it was within his expectation, it was somewhat disappointing to him. If he could relieve the siege of the Far East Front,
At the same time, it was ideal to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army. It was a pity that the Japanese army ran away.
But the current result is also satisfactory to him. No matter how you say it, although the old friend's troops have suffered heavy losses, they still retain their vitality. With Zhukov's talents, it won't be long before the Far East Front Army appears in Europe in full force.
On the battlefield, what made him happiest was that he could ride on the battlefield side by side with his old friends again!
