Chapter 575: Nomenkan


"Recently I heard a saying that I heard came from the Central Plains.

As the saying goes, do as the Romans do.

The Republic of China must practice socialism, and we must also adopt socialism with its own characteristics.

Copying what the Soviet Union did is called dogmatism.

We had repeatedly discussed this point before the Zunyi Conference, and later it was adopted in Zunyi and the correct policy was established, and we could finally overcome it.

Against all odds, we arrived in the northwest.

This sentence of socialism with the characteristics of the Republic of China is enough to prove the high level of revolutionary consciousness of Director Jiang.

When the brothers were still separated, the Soviet Union had a lot of support for us, but it still had some support.

It's selfish.

The Soviet Union's own interests come first.

We, the Republic of China, also have our own core interests."

Mr.

Zhou nodded in agreement.

"Well, Director Jiang and I have been exchanging letters recently.

After all, the following is too deeply influenced by the Soviet Union, and it cannot be completely corrected in a short while.

There needs to be a transition.

If there is anything, we can sit down and discuss it.

We can always discuss it when Ziwu Chouyin comes. .

Even within the Northwest Army, it is also divided into different factions such as the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army, the Shaanxi Army, the Sichuan Army, and Song Zheyuan's old Northwest Army.

They were all warlords before.

This could not be eliminated without internal war.

There are so many warlords and we have to keep the Japanese out of the Central Plains.

Director Jiang’s task is not as easy as ours to eliminate the old and build the new.”

The leader smiled and said, “We were in the south, and even the Kuomintang could seek common ground while reserving differences now.

When it comes to the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the northwest, is it not possible to tolerate even the comrades who have already joined the party?

If we think there are not enough factions now, do we have to create a few more factions ourselves?

I think this is the real ideological work that needs to be done.”

"The situation of grassroots officials in the northwest has been frequently exposed recently, which has indeed allowed some people to build momentum.

However, some people have gone too far to hunt rabbits and go online.

I am planning to discuss it with the leader and Mr.

Zhou when Suddenly, I didn’t expect you to pour it out like a bamboo tube.”

Shao Lizi and Zang Shiyi have been old friends for many years.

They happened to be working in the inspection area before.

When they came back, they learned that Zang Shiyi had just recovered from a serious illness, so they rushed over to visit and the two discussed the matter.

"It's hard not to complain.

There are some things where we need to be firmer.

Besides, we are also party members now.

Even if there is a dispute, it is an internal struggle, but some people always like to turn it into an external struggle.

The Japanese haven't beaten them away yet, and the north and south Big problems are not solved yet Determination.

Millions of refugees cannot live in peace.

If they don’t deal with so many troubles and just want to do their own thing, isn’t it confusing their brains?

The leaders, Zhou, Chen, Liu and I are all confused.

After contacting him, the senior management is generally very open-minded about The integration of the Great Northwest also has a positive attitude.

However, there are no factions, and there are all kinds of birds.

Even in the northwest, there are still those scum and leeks.

A wave of bad things about oneself.

We must resolutely crack down on bad behaviors within the party and follow the path of socialism with the characteristics of the Republic of China.

This is something that our leaders and Mr.

Zhou also agree with, so we cannot do it just because of trivial matters.

Big conflict."

Zang Shiyi took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "At the beginning, I had some objections to the commander's comprehensive introduction of red forces.

But now it seems that the advantages generally outweigh the disadvantages.

Besides, there are too many factions in the Republic of China. , but not only our party, but also the warlords everywhere are factions that need to be eliminated.

If we start by rejecting the party completely and only pursue our own policies, there will be no such thing.

Rong Xing, there are so many warlords in the country, including the Guangdong, Hunan, Sichuan, Shanxi, and Northeastern factions, can they really be wiped out one by one?

If the northwest regime cannot be cultivated to be inclusive, the integration of the country's forces will inevitably happen in the future.

Get twice the result with half the effort.

Seek common ground while reserving differences and make progress through cooperation.

Although the commander went to the Central Plains and put these things aside, he knows the truth better than us. " "You're right, the woods are big and there are all kinds of birds.

You can't overturn a whole boat of people with one stick just because of the actions of a few people.

Besides, aren't we all still on the boat?

Our old bones are not old enough to move.

Isn't it the tradition that the commander has always advocated to make progress in the face of difficulties and go upstream?"

Shao Lizi nodded and smiled happily, "To be honest, I was worried that no one would be able to persuade you to lose your temper before you became stubborn.

Come and think about your ideological work, I didn't expect that you have figured it out yourself.

But before the Soviet Union has enough influence on the northwest, you really need to keep a close eye on several arsenals.

We can’t be held back in the rear.

Besides, based on the current production of tanks and armored vehicles, the commander also wants to expand the 2nd Mixed Brigade and the 3rd Mixed Brigade at the same time after expanding the 1st Armored Mixed Brigade.”

"Let the commander worry about military matters.

Political matters are not the commander's intention.

Let's just take care of them later.

Besides, if we take care of big and small things, aren't all the princes exhausted to death?"

Thinking of Jiang Standing lazily, Zang Shiyi, his old partner, couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

The cavalry of the Dede Brigade crossed the Halaha River.

Most people in later generations thought that the Japanese army had the idea of ​​​​going north, so they took the initiative to provoke the war at Nomenkan.

In fact, the dispute began when the Mongolian cavalry under the influence of the Soviet Union crossed the Halaha River.

Although as early as 1924, the Soviet Union broke its original commitment to China after the October Revolution and secretly concluded several secret treaties with Japan to divide the spheres of influence between Manchuria and Mongolia.

However, with the Kwantung Army's full-scale invasion of Northeast China, the spheres of influence of both sides changed slightly with the rapid expansion of the Japanese army's power.

At least east of the Halaha River was the area under the jurisdiction of the Japanese army.

But this time the Mongolian cavalry in Qiaoba Mountain crossed the river.

At this time, the puppet troops responsible for border patrol clashed with the Mongolian cavalry.

After several chases, the Mongolian cavalry was driven back to the west of the Halaha River.

However, this matter was not over yet.

Soon the Mongolian cavalry brought back a group of younger men to kill them.

Not only did they defeat a puppet army, but they also built simple fortifications on the east bank of the Halaha River.

Looking at this posture, it doesn't look like they are here to fight guerrillas.

Two days later, on May 13, the Japanese 23rd Division stationed in Hailar reported the movements of the Mongolian army to the Kwantung Army headquarters.

In fact, the minor friction between the two parties began last year.

The commander of the Kwantung Army made a quick decision, so Lieutenant General Komatsuhara, the commander of the 23rd Division, sent half an infantry brigade, a cavalry squadron, and an armored vehicle squadron to raid the Mongolian army in Nomenkan.

The Mongolian army failed to fight and retreated to the west bank of the Halaha River.

At this time, the Soviet Union began to send troops to assist the Mongolian army.

The friction between the two sides further escalated.

The battle between the two sides started in the air.

However, the Soviet Air Force at this time, because the aircraft equipped in the Far East were relatively old, the cutting-edge i16 had not yet come to support it.

At the same time, after the Great Purge, the quality of Soviet pilot officers and ordinary pilots All saw massive declines.

With its superior air firepower, the Soviet Union was still in a suppressed position in the air battle with the Japanese.

At this time, the 23rd Division, as a newly formed three-three division of the Japanese army, was not on the same level as the old permanent divisions of the Japanese army in terms of the quality of its soldiers and equipment.

In the early stages of the battle, the Japanese army, which lacked heavy firepower, suffered heavy losses due to counterattacks by the Mongolian and Soviet troops.

However, overall, in the face of the superior strength of the Soviet Union, the casualties on both sides remained relatively balanced.

However, it started with the appointment of Zhukov, a famous general in Soviet history, as the commander of the 57th Army.

Zhukov typed up a report.

It is required to increase the number of no less than three infantry divisions and one tank brigade. and called for strengthening artillery and air defense forces.

The Soviet Ministry of Defense quickly approved Zhukov's request, and among the pilots transferred, compared to most of the rookies in the Far East, there were dozens more veteran pilots who had participated in the Spanish Civil War, and cutting-edge fighters like the i16.

And immediately entered the battle.

At this time, the Japanese army also made certain arrangements.

In fact, so far, the base camp has only received news of the military conflict with the Soviet Union.

Seeing that the situation is urgent, the Kwantung Army has not yet suffered a loss.

The base camp has not yet suffered a loss.

The 23rd Division's actions took a tacit attitude.

After all, this time it was the Mongolian cavalry who took the lead in provoking the trouble, and the 23rd Division was the one who fought back afterwards.

The Soviet Union's strong reaction was somewhat unexpected by the Japanese army.

The Soviet Union took the lead in mobilizing two fighter regiments, a high-speed bomber regiment and a mixed bomber regiment.

Three motorcycle armored brigades and two tank brigades.

A motorized division, two infantry divisions, and some Mongolian servants, these huge forces surrounded the Japanese army.

The commander of the Kwantung Army, Kenkichi Ueda, only received the tacit approval of the base camp at this time, and did not have the power to expand the war to an uncontrollable level.

Although he had several divisions that could be used, in fact, only the Halaha River area was occupied.

After being able to mobilize a 23rd Division and some other troops, including a considerable number of tanks, the 22nd Division could not mobilize more than 250,000 troops.

The two sides fought fiercely on the front line of the Halaha River.

At this time, the Soviet army had an absolute advantage in artillery firepower and the amount of aircraft equipment was greater than that of the Japanese army.

Before the follow-up reinforcements arrived, they could only rely on tanks that far exceeded the Japanese army.

The armored vehicles barely held the line.

The 34 has not yet been born.

The T26 and BT5 fast tanks are not only faster than the Japanese tanks, but they do not offer much advantage in terms of firepower.

At this time, the protection of Soviet tanks and Japanese tanks did not give them much advantage.

It is worth mentioning that although the Soviet Union obtained a prototype of the Northwest Tomahawk tank through some means.

Due to the great purge in the Soviet Union, the researchers and officers who were originally responsible for this project were all classified as villains and shot.

To this day, the Tomahawk prototype is still covered in dust in a warehouse in the Soviet Union.

For the deceased who had deliberately planned to obtain this prototype car, it was undoubtedly a huge irony.

Before the Japanese troops of the 23rd Division were reinforced, they had more than 100 tanks and armored vehicles.

They had to face at least 300 T26 tanks and BT series armored vehicles that had appeared in the Soviet Union.

The numerical disadvantage did not deter the Japanese.

The Japanese army used its absolutely inferior armored forces and ordinary infantry who were not afraid of death to block the Soviet armored torrent's assault.

His thin skin makes it difficult to deal with infantry.

The weeds on the grassland that are often as high as people's depths provide good cover for the Japanese soldiers, which also makes the success rate of the Japanese infantry not low.

In comparison, the Japanese infantry on the battlefield of the Republic of China was not because they were afraid of death, but because the battlefield of the Republic of China at this time did not have such a specific environment as on the grassland, and the thick-skinned Tomahawk tank was several times more powerful than the T26 The defensive capabilities also made it difficult for the Japanese infantry to attack even if they had combat anti-aircraft guns.

If the Soviet Union had the advantage at this time, it was its heavy artillery group.

When the Japanese army broke into the west of the Halaha River, they took the initiative to attack, defeated part of the Soviet-Mongolian coalition army, and occupied the Soviet position.

In the early stage, the Japanese army successfully raided the Soviet position and destroyed 12 Soviet tanks and armored vehicles at the cost of losing one tank. 6 cannons.

Such classic battle examples were later included in the examples of surprise warfare by various countries.

You must know that the war broke out for several months.

Until the later stages, the total number of various types of heavy artillery put into combat by the Japanese army was only more than 80.

After the Soviet army lost more than 20 heavy artillery pieces, they still concentrated hundreds of artillery pieces on the Japanese army to carry out suppressive and covering artillery bombardment after the Japanese army captured the position and the armored forces did not get much advantage.

The attacking Japanese troops suffered heavy losses, and some simple defenses that had been repaired were almost flattened by Soviet artillery fire.

To say that the Soviet army was more successful in this battle and had an absolute advantage, it was the artillery power.

The Japanese troops were suppressed throughout the battle.

Under the Soviet artillery, more numerous aerial firepower.

The Japanese artillery often lasted for more than an hour, or even nearly two hours, unable to organize an effective counterattack.

The ground troops suffered excessive losses.

As the war progressed into September, although the Kwantung Army made a certain amount of mobilization, only the 23rd Division and some additional troops were fighting against the Soviet army.

The 23rd Division's fierce battle with the Soviet army along the Halaha River caused excessive casualties and soon aroused dissatisfaction in the base camp.

Although they had acquiesced in the Kwantung Army's actions before, they suffered heavy casualties at this time, and the commander of the 23rd Division, Komatsubara, escaped from the Soviet encirclement with only two thousand remaining troops.

The base camp quickly issued an order that the Nomenkan operation should not be expanded and that it should be ended immediately.

The Kwantung Army has insufficient troops and should be based on orders that can be maintained for a long time.

Although the wording of the base camp was euphemistic, it undoubtedly made the Kwantung Army admit defeat
