Glorious Mission 1937

East Asia is full of wars, and the sound of guns and guns that have been ringing for more than two years has not subsided. From the desert grasslands in northern China to the vast forests in the northeast, from the loess plateau with interlaced ravines to the water villages in the south of the Yangtze River, the land of war devouring people's lives.

As the conflict between the Soviet Union and Japan continued to escalate in the disputed area, the world situation became more volatile.The United States, Britain, France and other countries secretly rejoiced, thinking that Japan's pawn would finally come in handy. They condoned and even supported Japan's invasion of China, in order to let Japan harm the red Soviet Union.Now that the development of the situation is more and more in line with their design, how can this not make them ecstatic.

The Soviet Union is worried. Although Japan is a small country, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army cannot be underestimated.During the Russo-Japanese War, Tsarist Russia suffered a great loss in the hands of this kid. It lost part of its rights and interests in the Northeast, ceded South Sakhalin Island, and lost the only ice-free port in the Pacific Ocean that had been painstakingly managed for a long time - Lushun, almost One point spits out the interests that Tsarist Russia has seized for hundreds of years in the Far East.Today's Japan is far from what Japan in the Meiji period could compare to. If you look at how the Japanese can maneuver freely on the Chinese battlefield, and the sword is invincible, you can know that the Japanese are no longer what they used to be. Fighting against such a powerful enemy , Stalin had no idea.

More importantly, there was still a strong enemy in the western part of the Soviet Union staring at the Soviet Union. After Hitler came to power, he immediately abolished the Versailles Peace Treaty, reorganized his armaments, and regained lost land. The German Army, Navy, and Air Force were quickly restored and rebuilt.At the end of World War I, the German Reich's army was almost completely disbanded.The Treaty of Versailles put clear restrictions on German military affairs.The German army is not allowed to fortify within 50 kilometers of the east and west banks of the Rhine.The army is limited to less than 10, and is not allowed to have offensive weapons such as tanks or heavy artillery, and the setting of the German General Staff is cancelled.You are not allowed to have a navy. In terms of ships, you can only have 6 battleships with a displacement of 1 tons, and you are not allowed to have submarines.No air force shall be organized.Weapons are not allowed to be imported or exported, and an additional 26% fee is levied on exported goods. Chemical weapons are not allowed to be produced or stored.

In order to limit the number of people receiving military training, compulsory military service was abolished, and the service period for non-commissioned officers and soldiers was extended to 12 years, and for officers to 25 years. [

但是根据苏联情报人员收集到的资料显示，早在1933至1934年间，时任德国总理阿道夫希特勒秘密开始了德国防卫军的扩充。而且扩充的幅度相当大。并且在1935年10月15日。德国正式将将德国防卫军更名为德国国防军。

After that, the Wehrmacht marched into the Demilitarized Zone of the Rhine, and at the same time sent people to participate in the Spanish Civil War.Last year, the German Wehrmacht occupied Austria strongly.The Wehrmacht then occupied Czechoslovakia.Germany has gradually revealed its sharp teeth and claws.The strength of the German Army surprised Stalin.

If it is to deal with one party alone.Then Stalin had nothing to worry about, and the Soviet Red Army was not a vegetarian, with millions of troops ready to deal a head-on blow to the powerful enemy that invaded.But if you fight on two fronts.The Soviet Union is in danger.

What worried Stalin most was the attitude of countries such as Britain, France and the United States. The rise of people's revolutions in various countries after World War I and the emergence of the socialist Soviet Union aroused the fear and hatred of imperialism.In their struggle for world hegemony, they not only want to weaken and defeat their competitors, but also oppose socialism and suppress the people's revolution.Coupled with the shadow brought by World War I to the people of Western European countries, fear of war prevailed in most countries, including Britain and France.

Therefore, Britain and France are both worried and afraid of Germany, an old opponent that was completely castrated in World War I. They are worried that this strong neighbor will rise again and bring irreparable and heavy losses to Britain and France, and they are even more worried that it will repeat the mistakes of World War I.But whether it is Britain or France, they are more afraid that sanctioning Germany will immediately lead to war, which they do not want to see.Coupled with the fear and hatred of the red "red" Soviet Union, under the secret connivance and support of Britain, France, the United States and other countries, the defeated Germany and the strong rise of Japan became a barrier against the Soviet Union and a thug to suppress the people's revolution.

This can be seen from the Versailles system and the Washington system.It is more specific in the Dawes plan, the Younger plan, and the Locarno Convention.Especially after the formation of the two sources of war, in the face of serious challenges from the fascist countries of Germany, Italy, and Japan, the appeasementists in Britain, France, and the United States, represented by British Prime Minister Chamberlain, sought peace for a while in order to safeguard their vested interests. , At the cost of sacrificing the interests of other countries, it seeks to compromise with the aggressors, in an attempt to direct the disaster to the Soviet Union and reap the benefits.

1931年“九一八事变”，容忍日本侵略中国东北。1935年3月容忍希特勒重整军备。1935年8月美国通过中立法。1935年10月容忍意大利侵略埃塞俄比亚。1936年3月放任希特勒武装进占莱茵区。1936年8月对德、意武装干涉西班牙采取“不干涉”政策。1937年7月纵容日本发动全面侵华战争，此后又策划太平洋国际会议，阴谋出卖中国，同日本妥协。1938年3月默许希特勒兼并奥地利。1938年9月的慕尼黑会议和《慕尼黑协定》。英、法及幕后它们支持的美国，妄图以牺牲捷克斯洛伐克为代价，在欧洲实现“普遍绥靖”，求得“一代人的和平”，实质上是动德国进攻苏联。

These Stalins knew in their hearts that threats from the East and the West made the bearded man quite uneasy about the situation in the Soviet Union.Soon, Stalin convened a military meeting at the level of the commander of the group army in the Kremlin to find a solution.

The meeting went on for two full days, but nothing came of it.In the end, Zhukov, the deputy commander of the Belarusian Special Military Region, made a suggestion. Zhukov believes that to deal with the current crisis situation, everything that can be done internally has been done, and the only way to do it is to start from the outside.

He believes that Germany has just annexed Austria and Czechoslovakia, where its rule has not yet been fully established, and it should be impossible to launch an attack on the Soviet Union for the time being.Moreover, Poland was sandwiched between the Soviet Union and Germany, and Poland performed very well in World War I. The combat effectiveness of its cavalry shocked all participating countries.In addition, Poland, Germany and the former Prussia are old enemies, and Poland, Britain and France are still allies. It is impossible for Germany to attack the Soviet Union across Poland, at least not in a short period of time, unless Germany can defeat and occupy Poland in a short period of time. .

Therefore, the biggest threat to the great Soviet Union is now Japan in the east.The main energy of the Soviet Union is contained in Europe, and there is only one front army in the Far East, while Japan's Kwantung Army alone has a full 40 people, plus the troops of the puppet Manchukuo and North Korea's puppet "government", its total strength is at least There are more than 80, and the Red Army is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength.

Moreover, the conflict between the great Soviet Union and the Japanese and Manchurian armies is escalating day by day. I am afraid that it will not take long for a major war to break out. Therefore, the most important thing for the great Soviet Union at the moment is to strengthen its forces in the Far East.Secondly, it is necessary to strengthen ties with the Chinese "government", especially to establish close and good ties with Chen Feng, a warlord stationed in the Chahar and Suiyuan provinces in northern China, in order to contain the Japanese troops in China.

Zhukov's proposal was approved by all the senior generals present at the meeting, but some officers still had doubts about the combat effectiveness of the squadron.After all, they have also fought against the Northeast Army with the strongest weaponry and the best equipment in the Chinese Army. Although the Northeast Army fought very bravely in the Middle East Road Incident in 1929, the heroism was only reflected in morale. In fact, the Northeast Army lost quite a lot. The tragedy caused many senior Soviet officers to have doubts about the combat effectiveness of the squadron, doubting whether they could take on the task of containing the Japanese army.

Zhukov had already made arrangements for this, and he took out a document titled "Analysis of the Combat Strength of the Squadron". In this analysis, he objectively analyzed and evaluated the vast majority of armies in China, including the Central Army of the Nationalist Government, the No. The Sui Army, the Northwest Army left behind by Yang Hucheng in Shaanxi, the scattered Northeast Army, and of course, Chen Feng's troops, which have only sprung up in recent years.

In this evaluation of combat effectiveness, Major General Ivan analyzed the number and quality of soldiers, the quality of officers, weapons and equipment, logistical support, and economic strength, and finally came to an astonishing conclusion.So far, among these squadrons, Chen Feng's unit has the strongest combat effectiveness.In terms of the number of soldiers, the Eighth War Zone led by Chen Feng has a huge group second only to the National Government's Central Army. In terms of the quality of soldiers, the Eighth War Zone can be called the highest quality army in China, not one of them.

Not to mention the weapons and equipment, based on his understanding of this squadron, it is not too much to call it armed to the teeth. The eighth theater has a huge army, army and air force, and it has even reached the level of Britain and France in terms of arms refinement. Su and other great powers are ahead.In the battle order of all troops in the Eighth Theater, there are established infantry, artillery, cavalry, engineers, supply troops, armored troops, special forces, air defense forces, airborne troops, medical soldiers, etc.

In addition, the quality of officers in the eighth war zone is also very high. They have their own secret military academy, which can train a large number of junior officers.The most important thing is that Chen Feng, the supreme commander of this army, is a war genius. He has successfully commanded many large-scale battles and dealt heavy blows to the Japanese army.

Coupled with the huge financial resources of the Chen family, the logistics support of Chen Feng's troops is not a problem at all. With the super ""drug" penicillin, no one can drag this army down financially.Therefore, Major General Ivan believes that in the near future, this army of warlords entrenched on the border of China will definitely become a powerful force that dominates Chinese politics.
