Gao Fei also realized that he lacked a mobile force, a reserve team, and a strategic defense in depth. The goal of the Chinese Youth Army was to gather and annihilate the Japanese Kwantung Army instead of defending in Heilongjiang. Heilongjiang did not have a defense line. Why set up a defense line in Jilin ?Even among the Chinese youth army, many generals and commanders believed that the defense was a missed opportunity, and the troops should continue to advance triumphantly and completely defeat the main force of Little Japan's army in the Far East. |[-] Literature

In the army, the mood of arrogance and underestimation of the enemy has appeared to varying degrees. The Japanese are almost finished, and victory is in sight, which has become an argument.

However, what Gao Fei expected was that the Soviet Union did not mobilize troops to attack the Japanese Kwantung Army in order to cooperate, but instead retreated slowly with the Japanese Fourth Front Army with only five divisions?If the reception is normal?What if the Soviet army reentered the territory it had promised to return to China?Was there a direct friction with the Soviet side?You must know that polar bears are one of the most disreputable countries in history, and their reputation is not much stronger than that of the Americans, Britain and France.

The Soviet Army did not cooperate with the Chinese Youth Army's counterattack plan. Gao Fei was shocked and judged that while Stalin was urging the main force of the Chinese Youth Army to move northward, he was also mobilizing troops from the Far East. In Stalin's impression, the Japanese were not real opponents at all. As long as the Germans are defeated, Japan is a bug that he can kill with one hand when he turns around, so as long as the Chinese youth army restrains the main force of the Japanese Kwantung Army, he can safely deploy troops to reinforce the Eastern Front. The most important thing is the eyes, and Stalin's wishful thinking is very good.

Let the Chinese army attract the full attention of the Japanese army, while the Soviet army took the opportunity to quickly re-enter the Far East with a small number of troops, dragging down the Nationalist government diplomatically, and finally, after defeating the Germans, give the Chinese side a death sentence. It is the true purpose of the Soviet Union. Lake Baikal is the pearl of the Soviet Union in the Far East, and it is an absolute buffer between the Soviet Union and China. If the Far East is lost, the Soviet Union will lose such an important port as Vladivostok. This is absolutely unacceptable to the Soviet Union. of. |907 Literature Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers [-]

Therefore, the Soviet Union has already prepared their own excuses and reasons to delay the coordinated operations between the Soviet Army and the Chinese Youth Army. This is the main reason why Stalin blindly urged the Chinese Youth Army to move northward quickly. The intention of the Chinese youth army to attack the main force of the Japanese army in the Far East.

In fact, Stalin also had a very headache. The relatively long Soviet-German front had become relatively stable, but both sides were preparing for a larger-scale battle to compete for the strategic initiative. To launch an offensive across the board, General Halder, the chief of the army's general staff, suggested that if another offensive is to be launched, it should be aimed at Moscow.

However, Hitler believed that the goal of attacking Moscow was too obvious, and that the Central Army Group had been greatly weakened. The German army should give up its plan to attack Moscow again. Therefore, Germany began to plan to concentrate its forces on the northern and southern fronts to launch a new round of local offensives. It was judged that the German army was going to attack Stalingrad, so they began to defend Stalingrad again.

Stalingrad was originally named Tsaritsin, and later renamed Volgograd. To celebrate Stalin's 50th birthday, it was named Stalingrad. It is located on the west bank of the lower reaches of the Volga River. A railway transportation hub and an important industrial city, it has a large tractor factory, the Stalingrad Tractor Factory, which was the largest tractor factory in the Soviet Union at that time, accounting for half of the total output of the Soviet Union, mainly producing various types of T34 tanks.

Moreover, to the west and south of Stalingrad are the vast and fertile Lower Don River Basin, the Kuban River Basin and the Caucasus region, which are important production areas of grain, oil and coal in the Soviet Union. After the German army occupied Ukraine, Stalingrad became the center of the Soviet Union. The region is the only transportation throat leading to the important economic region in the south, and its strategic location is extremely important. If the German army occupies this region, the Soviet Union will lose the oil, food and important industrial base needed for the war, and Germany urgently needs these resources at this time , Hitler believed that if the oil from Maykop and Grozny could not be obtained, then the war must be ended.

However, when the German army deployed halfway, Hitler suddenly decided to attack Moscow again, which made the Soviet army somewhat unprepared in terms of strategic choices. After the Soviet army completed the reinforcements and shifted strategic focus, the German army's feint attack in Moscow also stopped at any time Stalingrad, which had been razed to the ground in the first Battle of Stalingrad, resisted for 21 days and finally fell. The Germans got their wish and suffered heavy losses.

Feeling like a pig's head being played around, Stalin was furious and decided to recapture Stalingrad. The Soviet army had to concentrate all its troops on the counterattack, while the German army, which had reached the juncture of the battle, urgently needed to rest. As far as the plan line is concerned, he has achieved his goal. From the perspective of the Germans, it is time to end the strategic offensive in Europe. It is unrealistic to completely wipe out the Soviet Union, and Hitler is very clear about this.

The Soviets got a very good excuse. The Germans really have more than enough energy, but the Soviets are accumulating strength. Stalingrad is equally important to the Soviets and the Germans, so the Soviets are accumulating strength on the Eastern Front At the same time, treachery and refusal to cooperate with the Chinese Youth Army also caused the West Road Group formed by the Chinese Youth Army and the East Road Group commanded by Chen Cheng to fall into a bitter battle.

Under the overall international strategy, the voice of the Chinese theater, especially the voice from Nanjing, seems so weak. In Roosevelt's words, you can't shirk all your problems to your allies. This is immoral and irrational. This kind of evasion of inaction must be active. The US government has given China huge assistance and support. China must reflect the value of these assistance, defeat or even annihilate the Japanese Kwantung Army on the northern front, and contact the landing force with the Chinese Expeditionary Force in the Pacific. In conjunction with the US military's preparations for island-hopping operations, the operations against the Japanese should be completely ended in the first half of 1944, and then all energies should be concentrated on the European battlefield.

The Soviets could no longer be counted on. Gao Fei could only issue an order to Shen Yingxiong to quickly conquer the Tiger Head Fortress at all costs, annihilate Tani Hisao's troops, and plan to use the mechanized army together with the light armored group and the new No.20 First Army as a mobile Assault forces to ensure Heilongjiang's defense in depth.
