On the other hand, we also hope that you and the children can obey our arrangement, from now on, don't go out, stay here all the time, so that we can protect you!" His tone was very gentle and his attitude was very earnest.
Yulia nodded again and again: "Okay, we listen to you!" She subconsciously hugged her little daughter.
Yuri looked at his companions, and one of them walked up to him and whispered, "I'm sure the four of you are me!" The other two companions set up a radio station in the living room and started sending telegrams. All the companions deployed their defenses vigilantly, holding the latest Soviet Bobosha submachine guns in their hands, but the muzzles of the guns did not point outside the house, but seemed to be pointing inside the house.
Yulia already understood that her husband was like that just now because he was mentally prepared to part with her, but she never thought that parting with her was indeed true, but the person who was about to die was not her husband, but herself and her children.
When receiving Yuri's telegram, Fu Zuoyi was hesitating more and more seriously, because the 37th Division's counterattack against the Soviet army was neither considered a success nor a success.
Since the 37th Division had made the utmost preparations, it held a greater initiative in the battle situation. However, much more Soviet troops attacked than originally expected, which made the 37th Division fall into a bitter battle.
The 37th Division performed well and fought hard, inflicting heavy losses on the Soviet army, but it also suffered huge losses. A large number of officers and soldiers, including Wang Yujiu, the chief of staff of the division, died for the country. A new type of artillery that was killed or injured by the Soviet Army.
This new situation further made Fu Zuoyi suspicious.
"I don't doubt that this is Rokossovsky 'showing his true colors'!" Wei Lihuang was unmoved, "If the Soviet army spent so much effort just to attack the 37th Division of our army, it would be a secret vote. .
It is quite possible that Rokossovsky was telling the truth, Zhukov temporarily changed his battle plan, after all, he himself was in Tyumen at this time!"
"Maybe it's our tough countermeasures that prevented Rokossovsky from performing, so we had to meet in advance!" Fu Zuoyi was full of doubts, "I always feel..."
"Report!" Zhou Fu hurriedly trotted in, happily raising a telegram in his hand, "Yuri and the others just sent a telegram, everything went well!"
"What?" Fu Zuoyi was taken aback, "Really?"
"Really!" Zhou Fu nodded again and again, "Rokossovsky followed our instructions very honestly and brought our fifteen brothers to the place where his wife and children lived in Tyumen City. His wife and children are all under our control, and after verification, his wife and children are all his own, and he did not find someone to impersonate him!"
"So..." Fu Zuoyi thought eagerly.
"His wife and children are in our hands. If he swindles surrender, we can kill his wife and children at any time!" Zhou Fu was very excited, "Chief and deputy, it can be seen that Rokossovsky is Sincerely surrender!"
"I hope!" Guo Jiqiao smiled, his attitude was noncommittal, "Sometimes, people can do things that are outrageous or even insane for the sake of ambition or grand goals.
Wu Qi, who is as famous as Sun Wu, can kill his wife to ask for a general. In order to show his determination to follow Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin, the first general under Li Zicheng, killed two wives to show his ambition. Since things existed before, wouldn’t they happen now?What's more, the Bolshevism of the Soviet Union originally paid attention to 'sacrificing the individual and dedicating to the collective'!"
Fu Zuoyi once again fell into hesitation. Whether Rokossovsky really wanted to surrender made him really worried.
After pondering over and over again, Fu Zuoyi ordered Zhou Fu: "According to the report of Master Zheng Zuomin, the Soviet army used a new type of artillery on the battlefield, which seems to be called Katyusha rocket launcher, and Rokossovsky's troops should also be equipped with it. kind of rocket launcher, and ask him to immediately provide us with three intact Katyusha rocket launchers as research samples!"
Zhou Fu immediately sent someone to contact. Fu Zuoyi's request received a positive response from Rokossovsky. The three Katyusha rockets were quickly sent to the Nanjing Army, and then transported to Peiping by special train and handed over to China and Germany. Military experts from the two countries conduct research.
At this time, Fu Zuoyi basically believed that Rokossovsky's surrender was sincere.
次日中午,李玉堂部第88师抵达冠军城前线,随即,傅作义下令李玉堂把第99师也调到冠军城,并从李玉堂部第100军另外三个师(第203、第204、第205师)抽调大量的军械弹药、辎重物资补充给第88、第99师。
On February 2, the first batch of follow-up units of the Soviet Army crossed the Ural Mountains. According to the information obtained by the Nanjing Army, these Soviet troops were mainly the 27nd and 22th Army Groups, led by Lieutenant General Ershakov and Khomenko respectively. The lieutenant general commanded.
Rokossovsky then provided more detailed information. The Soviet Army’s 22nd and 30th Army Groups were all veteran troops who had participated in the Moscow Battle. The proportion of veterans was very high and their equipment was relatively good. million, carrying nearly a thousand tanks and nearly a thousand heavy artillery.
Fu Zuoyi knew that it was time to make up his mind.
The situation is very clear. After the subsequent 20 troops of the Soviet Army arrived, the Nanjing Army, which was already at a disadvantage on the battlefield of Champion City, could only fight defensively instead of launching a counterattack. If the Nanjing Army wanted to achieve major results, it had to Take the initiative to attack before the follow-up troops of the Soviet army arrive, annihilate a part of the Soviet army fiercely, and then retreat when they see it, and turn from offense to defense, and fight defensively wholeheartedly. .
At this time, on the battlefield of Champion City, the Nanjing Army has reached 7 divisions (the 77th, 74th, 201st, 202nd, 37th, 88th, and 99th divisions). There are about 18 soldiers; the Soviet army is still dominated by the 16th Army and the 1st Cavalry Army. After deducting casualties and supplementing successively, the number of soldiers capable of fighting is about 28. A small advantage, but in terms of overall strength, it is actually not stronger than the Nanjing Army. What's more, one of the two army commanders of the Soviet Army has secretly surrendered to the Nanjing Army.
Fu Zuoyi can stand still at this time, or he can take the initiative to attack. If he does not move, Zhukov can't help him. After the arrival of more than 20 reinforcements from the Soviet army, Zhukov basically can't help Fu Zuoyi. The attack of 18 Soviet troops, however, Fu Zuoyi has been passively beaten by doing so, he can only defend and cannot pursue. If Zhukov retreats, Fu Zuoyi has nothing to do. 50 soldiers are approaching the city, and there are more than 28 rushing over behind. From a military point of view, Fu Zuoyi should also take advantage of the two Soviet armies to attack one by one before they join forces, so as to consume the vital strength of the Soviet army to the maximum extent.
The reason is simple: Fu Zuoyi does not move now, and in a short time, there will be 50 Soviet troops attacking the city. Fu Zuoyi is now taking the initiative to attack. If he wipes out 40 Soviet troops, the number of Soviet troops attacking the city will be reduced to [-]. The pros and cons of the situation are clear at a glance.
After thinking over and over again, Fu Zuoyi made up his mind: "Notify Rokossovsky! Our army is going to officially launch a counterattack, and ask him to do his best to cooperate. After the event is completed, he will not lose all the benefits!"
After making up his mind, Fu Zuoyi issued several orders in succession:
“命令第88师和第99师,在今夜与第37师合兵一处,解救被围困的第77、第74师。
Order the 201st Division and the 202nd Division to each deploy a brigade to carry out a feint attack in the west and northwest of Champion City, try to contain the Soviet army and confuse the Soviet army!"
"General Wei Lihuang is fully responsible for the northern war. The rescue of the 77th and 74th divisions can be delayed, and Rokossovsky will use all of his 16th Army to block the encirclement.
Remember, the purpose of the rescue mission is not entirely to rescue the besieged troops, but to use the besieged troops as bait to lure the Soviet army to concentrate its forces on the northern battlefield!"
"After the first step is successful, Rokossovsky is required to make a breakthrough in area 9. The 77th and 74th divisions do not need to return to Champion City after breaking through, and immediately detour to the left rear of the Soviet 16th Army. At the same time, the 88th and 99th divisions immediately detoured to the right rear of the 16th Army of the Soviet Army. The two divisions must join forces in the area of Ingale (the place name in the north and northwest of Champion City) at the scheduled time to encircle the 16th Army of the Soviet Army. And carry out mass annihilation!"
"After the 37th Division completed the first step of the combat plan, it immediately interspersed with the Sargatskoye (place name in the west-northwest of the Champion City) area to cover the flanks of the remaining four divisions and block the Soviet troops who will surely come for reinforcements. 1st Cavalry Army.
But remember, if the operation to annihilate the Soviet 16th Army is relatively smooth and the chances of winning are great, you might as well make a gap, lure Budyonny to throw himself into the trap, and annihilate him and the Soviet 16th Army together!"
"The 201st and 202nd divisions must be vigilant to prevent the Soviet army from taking the opportunity to attack the city. In addition, they must carry out a comprehensive clearing of the city and drive all the Russians out of the city to ensure that the champion city will not be attacked by the Soviet army from both inside and outside.
Remember, even if we can't fight this war of gathering and annihilating, the champion city must be safe, and defending this bridgehead military city is our first criterion!"
"Order the 99th Division to arrive at the battlefield and enter the reserve area before four o'clock in the morning tomorrow, and then order the main force of the 37th Division to break through the Soviet army's blockade and make a posture to join the 74th Division, so that the Soviet army can feel the momentum of our actions! "
"Contact General Xue Yue and General Luo Zhuoying to strengthen the monitoring of the Soviet Army in the three cities of North Asia. We will never allow a soldier in the three cities of North Asia to threaten the champion city. Cuikov will cooperate with Zhukov to carry out a two-line attack on our army again." Flank attack or feint to contain, but also guard against Chuikov who might emulate Konev to preserve his strength!"
"Notify all ministries that about 3 Soviet troops in the four cities in North Asia have been dispersed, and may harass our army's rear. All ministries are required to be careful!"
"Contact General Feng Zhi'an, and the security of logistics and transportation will be entrusted to him.
Our army will definitely consume a huge amount of ordnance and ammunition this time, and logistical supplies are of great importance, and there is no room for loss.
... "
Fu Zuoyi issued more than a dozen important combat orders in one go, which fully demonstrated his solid military command skills, superhuman courage and meticulous thinking.
"Zhukov thought I would only be beaten, but I wanted to fight back!" After giving the order, Fu Zuoyi sat on a chair, took a sip of strong tea, and a complicated smile appeared on his weather-beaten face.
At the same time, in the frontline headquarters of the Soviet Army, like Fu Zuoyi, Zhukov, who hadn't closed his eyes for several days and nights, was staring at the battle map tightly. His eyes were bloodshot and his mind was running fast.
At this time, a staff officer ran to him and reported something in a low voice.
Zhukov listened motionlessly, and remained motionless after listening. Suddenly, he threw the pencil in his hand on the map, and because of a relieved smile on his dignified and hard face, he breathed a long sigh of relief. , sitting limply on the chair.
"Is it good news?" Vasilevsky, who also had red eyes, walked over with uncontrollable excitement on his face.
Zhukov nodded. He was so excited that he wept with joy: "Yes, Comrade Vasilevsky, that Fu Zuoyi finally couldn't bear the great temptation of the bait we gave!"
"Great!" Vasilevsky was overjoyed, his eyes were a little moist, "That Fu Zuoyi is a general who is very good at defensive and city defense. If he remains unmoved and sticks to Omsk wholeheartedly, we will It's completely helpless to take him, but now, he finally gave up the most tricky tactics for us!"
"Comrade Vasilevsky!" Zhukov stood up with difficulty, looking at Vasilevsky with piercing eyes, "I need you to go to Kyzylzal immediately (a city in northern Kazakhstan, located [-] kilometers southwest of Champion City) ), you are needed there, I believe that no one is more qualified than you to fight there.
Eliminate Li Yutang, this is your task! "
Vasilevsky stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhukov tightly: "Don't worry! Comrade Zhukov!"
After Vasilevsky left, Zhukov sat down again. Although he was extremely tired at this time, he was refreshed by extreme excitement. After working hard and strategizing for so long, his patience and strategy finally began to become reality. Don't get him excited.
"Fu Zuoyi must have never imagined in his dreams that I never planned to start a real battle with him in Omsk. The real battlefield is actually..." Zhukov thought excitedly.
"Comrade Zhukov!" A voice that disgusted Zhukov came from outside the command department. It was Lieutenant General Philip Ivanovich Golikov, Director of the Reconnaissance Bureau of the Soviet General Staff.
"Comrade Golikov, what's the matter?" Zhukov was in no mood to waste time with the imperial envoy and front-line warlord.
Golikov strode in, followed by two burly guards, but Zhukov could tell at a glance that the two guards were filled with the aura of agents.
"I came here to ask you, are you really loyal to the Soviet?" Golikov asked with a sneer.
"What do you mean?" Zhukov was startled, and his tiredness disappeared.
The smile on Golikov's face grew wider: "Comrade Stalin trusts you very much, but you seem to be doing something disloyal to the Soviet and Comrade Stalin.
Three hours ago, someone tried to pick up your family in Molotov. Unfortunately, those people failed and were all shot dead. According to the investigation, those people were all Chinese agents.
Comrade Stalin was very surprised. Why did Chinese agents sneak into the Soviet Union to pick up Comrade Zhukov and your family? "
Zhukov was terrified, and he faintly realized something.
"More than that!" Golikov said with a gloomy expression, "It is said that Comrade Rokossovsky, the commander of your 16th Army, has also shown signs of attempting to treason recently, isn't it? These two things are really shocking. I can't believe it's just a coincidence!"
Zhukov suddenly felt dizzy in his head.
Chapter 552 Sudden changes in the battle situation (2)
In the middle east of Eastern Europe, the No.13 largest city in Russia, Molotov.
The city, originally named Perm but renamed after Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov in honor of Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov before the Soviet war, is now the actual wartime capital of the Soviet Union. The first batch of high-level dignitaries and their family members have been transferred here one after another.
Obviously, the wartime capital of the Soviet Union was under strict military control. Coupled with the special political system of the Soviet Union, it was difficult for foreign intelligence forces, especially enemy countries, to infiltrate Molotov. However, this kind of watertight At this time, Molotov's underground world was already full of treachery, whether it was the Gestapo in Germany or the Maritime Bureau in China, they all became active again.
The reason for this situation is also very simple. It is similar to the Battle of Guandu in Chinese history. Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao. In Yuan Shao's camp, he found many letters secretly written by Cao Cao's own high-level personnel to Yuan Shao expressing their allegiance to Yuan Shao.
Before the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was strong and Cao Cao was weak. Many people on Cao Cao’s side believed that Cao Cao would definitely lose, so naturally they had to reserve a way out early. In the current Soviet war, the Soviet Union was already on the verge of extinction. There are more and more "people who know current affairs", but because of the special political system of the Soviet Union and the harsh methods of Stalin and Beria, there is no climate.
In fact, both Berlin and Peiping have a plan, which is to support the anti-Stalinist forces within the top Soviet Union during the war, launch a coup, take advantage of the situation to seize power, and finally "abandon the rebellion" to the Allies. If this plan is successful, the war will naturally be won It will come ahead of time, and if it fails, it can also hit the little vitality left in the Soviet Union, shake the foundation of Stalin's regime, and aggravate the discord within the Soviet Union's top leadership.
It's a pity that Stalin killed almost all those who opposed him during the Great Purge, and the remaining people were so frightened by him that they didn't even have the courage to even think about opposing him. Germany and China secretly contacted and tipped off Germany and China, but they never dared to openly play the banner of rebelling against Stalin.
The city of Molotov can be described as "gathering of high-ranking officials and dignitaries everywhere".
Because the Soviet army suffered repeated major defeats and endless large-scale and collective surrenders during the first stage of the war, Stalin, who had learned from the pain, decided to use all means to contain the "surrender wave". With the trend of surrender, which Soviet army will fight desperately?The German and Chinese troops only need to go all the way to capture the prisoners to win the victory.
Beria, who carried out Stalin's order, adopted a very straightforward method, "centralized relocation and resettlement" of all the family members of all middle and senior officers of the Soviet Army (regiment commander, brigade commander, division commander, army commander, group army commander, etc.) In name, it is to protect them so that they can "fight with peace of mind", but in fact they are taken as hostages, forcing them to surrender and fight to the death. Behavior" "There are only three types of people in the Red Army, heroes, martyrs, and traitors."
In the past, the family members of the Soviet generals who surrendered or ran away or refused to execute obviously incorrect orders and chose to retreat, evacuate, or transfer were only imprisoned or exiled, but as the war worsened, both the imprisonment and exile were shot. replaced.
Molotov is one of the family settlements of high-level personnel of the Soviet party, government and army. Zhukov's wife Alexandra Kievna Zuykova and eldest daughter Edra Georgievna Zhukova and her youngest daughter Ella Georgievna Zhukova were all relocated here.
In the home of a certain Soviet army commander in the city, a small group of people who are obviously not the family members of the teacher are gathering in a room. There are eight people in total, all of whom are strong and strong young men, dressed in Soviet army uniforms and holding Soviet army weapons. They looked like soldiers, but they were filled with the breath of agents. All eight of them had Russian faces. Some of them were selected from the Yellow Russian Army, and some were born in Xinjiang.
There was a ninth person in the room, Chen Rui, the leader of the action team of the frontline military branch of the Maritime Statistics Bureau.
Chen Rui didn't say a word, just kept looking at his eight subordinates, wanting to engrave the faces of the eight subordinates in his heart forever, his eyes were solemn and solemn, but his eyes and face were full of A special kind of sadness and sadness, as well as extreme guilt.
"Brothers!" Chen Rui's voice was very low, "You are very aware of the danger of this mission, it is [-]% dangerous, because this is a mission that must fail, and you will all die!" He specially used "Must die!" Undoubtedly" is a very harsh word instead of slightly more euphemistic and subtle words such as "There will be no return" or "It's too much luck", because he doesn't want to deceive his own robes, and it is actually unnecessary. The eight people who accepted the task They are very clear about their mission and their ending. They are all mentally prepared to face death directly, and they also have this awareness, so there is no need to hide it.
Chen Rui paused, and his tone was extremely unbearable, "Which one of you wants to quit? This is the last chance! Those who quit will not be looked down upon, because I am unwilling to participate in this kind of mission!"
The eight agents all smiled in relief: "Team leader, thank you for your kindness.
Our heart is like a stone, for the sake of the country, there is nothing terrible in dying generously, this is our duty.
Everyone is mortal, and dying with value is the best way to die!"
Chen Rui couldn't help tears welling up in his eyes: "Good brother!" He hugged the eight subordinates tightly one by one, "Don't worry! Your family members don't need to worry, let alone the country and the bureau, even if I die Make sure they have a good life in the future!"
"Team leader, you have said this many times!" The agents smiled, "It's time, let's go!"
