Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 798: Persuade to Surrender

The bait Tang Qiuli placed in Hadasan worked as expected. Zhukov commanded the main force of the First Far East Army, marched day and night, and rushed to this area.

Tang Qiuli did not deploy troops to harass and block the way. He just wanted Zhukov and went straight to Hadasan without any hindrance. He was not worried that Zhukov would see through his plan. The 120,000 Soviet troops were Zhukov.

Reasons why it is necessary to save.

The Red Tsar in the Kremlin, the great leader of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet General Staff who obeyed Stalin's orders, did not whip Zhukov and Comrade Stalin, and did not allow the heroic and fighting Soviet Red Army troops to appear again.

The Far East Special Forces were completely wiped out in the Hujiert Mountains. He would have been very embarrassed, especially in front of the European powers.

It's not that Zhukov has no brains. The main force commanded by Tang Qiuli, with superior strength and firepower, surrounded and refused to attack the Vuchkov troops surrounded by Hadasan. This made Zhukov extremely uneasy. He judged that this

It might be a trap. Through a series of battles, he saw Tang Qiuli's strategies and methods, and also understood the combat effectiveness of the Chinese team.

According to his idea, the main force of the group army should be deployed on the spot in the western region of Outer Mongolia, annihilate the scattered squadrons in various places, gradually approach Kulun, and then organize a force of more than 150,000 to approach from the eastern region of Outer Mongolia.

Coulomb, it is still the trend of encirclement between east and west.

Even if Tang Qiuli wiped out Vuchkov's troops, he couldn't get away immediately. It was worth using Vuchkov's 120,000 men in exchange for Tang Qiuli's entire regiment. After his plan was reported to the Far East Military Region, because of the concerns

It was so important that the military region did not dare to make a decision, so it reported it to the Soviet General Staff Headquarters.

The General Staff called back, not only rejecting Zhukov's suggestion, but also denying all his ideas, and strictly ordered Zhukov to rescue Vuchkov immediately. Judging from the wording of this telegram, Zhukov believed that this was the opinion of Supreme Commander Comrade Stalin.

, even though he was extremely courageous and had eight rebel bones on the back of his head, he did not dare to oppose the great leader's opinions and could only implement them completely.

Zhukov had a hunch that the results of the main force of his group army might not be much better than Vuchkov's. Before he arrived at Hadasan, Vuchkov's entire army would definitely be wiped out, and Tang Qiuli would be free to deal with him with all his strength.

The Chinese blocking force mysteriously disappeared behind him.

If the Kazadewu Pass passage was blocked again, he would have no way to retreat even if he wanted to. Although he was extremely uneasy and even predicted the outcome of the battle, Zhukov still ordered the troops without hesitation to march day and night, speeding up, with a kind of moth.

The tragedy of throwing yourself into fire.

Based on Stalin's opinion, the Soviet General Staff issued an order to rescue Vuchkov's troops, which was the direct reason for pushing Zhukov and the main force of his First Far East Army into a desperate situation. Zhukov resolutely carried out the order because of a

With a sense of responsibility as a soldier, he condensed all his thoughts and predictions on the outcome of the war into a letter, sent a special person to Moscow, and sent it directly to Comrade Stalin.

There is another thing that Zhukov did not expect. Tang Qiuli has transferred the main force of a corps from the mainland. Their marching intersection is the Uliasutai area, which is the only way to Hadasan.

Tang Qiuli designed another encirclement area for Zhukov, which was another sharp blade to slaughter the Soviet First Army in the Far East.

To the west of Kulun, in the encirclement of Hadasan area, the regiment headquarters, one day later, Tang Qiuli asked several captured Soviet officers to bring a letter of persuasion to surrender to Lieutenant General Vuchkov, but there was never any response, and the frontline troops observed

The situation is that several corpses were hung in front of the Soviet positions.

Tang Qiuli understood that Vuchkov, a tough Bolshevik, would not surrender at all, but he did not give up. Anyway, there was still time, so he decided to put some pressure on Vuchkov, which was also a warning to get rid of his illusions and ordered

Zheng Yong, concentrate an artillery group, blast a hole in the Soviet circular position, and then see Vuchkov's reaction.

There was a loud bang, and the Hadasan battlefield, which had been quiet for a day and night, became agitated again. Groups of artillery shells fell on the Soviet position as accurately as raindrops. Vuchkov regarded the ring fortifications composed of tanks as a life-saving straw.

Within twenty minutes, it was hit by fierce and concentrated shelling, blasting a gap one kilometer wide.

The Soviet tanks at the bombardment site immediately turned into burning fireballs. Thick smoke and flames rose, mixed with the violent explosions of explosive ammunition. The Soviet army was shaken across the board, thinking that the Chinese ** team had begun to attack. Waiting for the Soviet Union

When the soldiers climbed to the fortifications tremblingly, they found that they saw nothing but one position being tortured by shelling.

Vuchkov was furious, and in order to boost morale, he immediately ordered all the artillery firepower in the encirclement to fire back immediately and destroy the artillery positions of the squadron.

Countless artillery shells were fired from the Soviet position. This was a 155-caliber howitzer. Its power was astonishing. Hundreds of howitzers fired in volley. The scene was quite spectacular. Zheng Yong, the artillery commander of the ** Division, was overjoyed. The Soviets

The artillery finally showed up. After searching for more than a day, no one was found.

"Order, all artillery groups, immediately lock the Soviet artillery positions and conduct a covering artillery bombardment," Zheng Yong hurriedly issued the order. Thousands of artillery fired a salvo. The scene was much more intense than that of the Soviet artillery. With this wild fire, the Soviet army

The position was so dense that a single artillery shell could knock down a bunch of people, not to mention the Soviet artillery that was crowded together.

Fifteen minutes later, the Soviet artillery was completely suppressed, and it was mute at that time. Zheng Yong did not intend to let go of this rare opportunity, and ordered the artillery group to continue beating until the Soviet artillery was completely destroyed.

Commander Zheng Yong and Zheng fought happily, but little did they know that someone in the headquarters grinned in pain. In this effort, he destroyed hundreds of large-caliber howitzers. If he could get it, he would hit the Japanese artillery.

That's so exciting. Zheng Yong, a prodigal, comes from a cannon background, so I don't feel sorry for him.

Tang Qiuli was chattering here, feeling sorry for the bombed howitzers. Zheng Yong was fighting more and more vigorously, causing fireworks to burst into the encirclement. Soviet soldiers were running around everywhere. Those who didn't understand the situation thought they had launched a general offensive.

.

After Tang Qiuli scolded Zheng Yong, he hated Chikov again. If this stubborn guy surrendered obediently, I would have saved so many rounds of artillery shells and picked up so many howitzers.

The shelling stopped, and the Soviet positions in the encirclement were shrouded in thick smoke. No more artillery shells were fired. It was estimated that all of them were killed by Zheng Yong's artillery. Several captured messengers sent by Tang Qiuli were killed again.

Set off.

This is the last chance to persuade Lieutenant General Vuchkov and more than 80,000 Soviet soldiers to surrender. Zhukov has already passed the Khovd area, and will reach Ulyasutai in one day and one night.

It will take an extra day and night to reach Hadasan.

Tang Qiuli gave Vuchkov two hours to reply. He wrote in his letter to persuade him to surrender: "Soviet Red Army Lieutenant General Vuchkov, your army has been trapped in a tight siege. There is no hope of breaking out. Reinforcements are far away. Just now your artillery

The troops have all been destroyed, and the temporary defenses built with tanks and other equipment based on General Zhukov's suggestion are even more vulnerable."

"The road before you, there is only one choice, which is to lay down your arms and surrender to the squadron. I guarantee with the honor of a soldier that as long as you lay down your arms, I will guarantee the safety of all Soviet prisoners of war and give you

You deserve the treatment you deserve. Please think twice and think about the lives of more than 80,000 soldiers. Otherwise, on Chinese soil, we Chinese will never be soft on the invaders. In just two hours, your so-called tank ring

The fortifications will turn into powder."

Lieutenant General Vuchkov sat on the ammunition box and listened to his staff reading Tang Qiuli's letter. His face was dejected. He believed that the commander of the squadron opposite was telling the truth. Because of his stupidity, 120,000 Red Army soldiers were killed.

The soldier was sent to the encirclement of the squadron. Because of his ignorance, he ruined the lives of all the artillery and tens of thousands of soldiers.

Just now, he had contacted Zhukov, and the comrade commander asked him to hold on for two days. But just now, he witnessed with his own eyes the intensity of the squadron's shelling and could not hold on for even two hours. The desperate situation was impossible.

In a hopeless situation, Vuchkov's mind was in a mess.

The divisions, brigade divisions, brigade commanders and political commissars gathered around him all stared at the painful expression of the commander. In fact, everyone knew very well the situation they faced. The shelling of the ** squadron just now,

If it were not to destroy the artillery, but to fall on the circular position, the fortifications would have been breached long ago.

They were either prisoners or corpses. This was a hopeless battle. Looking at the morale of the soldiers, it was extremely low. Vuchkov was in a daze for a while. He could not make up his mind about such a big thing and decided to convene a meeting.

The party committee enlarged its meeting and adopted a show of hands vote to decide the fate of this unit.

As soon as Lieutenant General Vuchkov finished Tang Qiuli's belief in persuading him to surrender, the meeting place exploded. Most of the military commanders agreed to lay down their weapons and refrain from unnecessary resistance for the sake of the lives of more than 80,000 soldiers.

The political commissars are unanimously opposed to surrender. Their reason is very simple. The great Soviet Red Army soldiers will never surrender to the enemies and invaders, let alone lay down their weapons and stop fighting. This is a glorious moment to devote oneself to our great motherland.

The tone of the meeting was thus set: do not surrender and fight to the end. Vuchkov also knew that if he ordered the troops to surrender, even if he returned to the Soviet Union, he would be shot and his relatives would be implicated, so he might as well become a Soviet martyr.

After the political commissars at all levels returned to the army, they immediately convened a meeting of party members and Communist Youth League members to set up death squads. As soon as the Chinese Communist Party started to attack, they would fight to break out. Meetings of party and league members everywhere were held solemnly and impassioned. Young Soviet soldiers, one after another,

Instigated into a hopeless breakout suicide squad.
