The five-year period of the Sino-Soviet border conflict has passed in a blink of an eye, and Liu Hua, who has successfully visited the United States, has not been at war in the whole country for the time being. Just after the Central Military Commission was appointed as a deputy chairman and a member of the Central Military Commission, it focused its main efforts on domestic economic and industrial development.

The chief executive is responsible for taking the helm, and Liu Hua, Deng Gong and others assist. In just five years, the country has undergone earth-shaking changes in a short period of time.

With the memory of his later generations, whether it is Daqing Oilfield, or Jianghan and other oilfields...... All of them were discovered and mined decades ahead of time under Liu Hua's interference.

In addition, according to the current rate of oil consumption and the exploitation rate of the two major oil fields in China, at least within 10 years, China does not need to worry about the oil problem.

In terms of heavy industry, Wuhan Heavy Industry Park, Shenyang Heavy Industry Park... A large number of heavy industry bases have sprung up on the land of China. In five years, all kinds of industrial equipment needed by all walks of life in the country, without exception, have reached the level of self-production.

In terms of steel production, after several years of blowout development, China's annual steel output has exceeded 25 million tons, ranking among the top in the world. In addition, all kinds of special steel technologies have been obtained by Liu Hua through various means, and the entire "China" country no longer needs to look at other people's faces because of steel......

Of course, of all these changes, the most gratifying is of course the change in the modernization of the army.

With the National Defense University of China, a military and political academy, as a strong backing for the army, in just five years, all commanders at and above the company level and above in the whole army, without exception, have been re-examined. Not only that, but this only national defense university in China also provides the entire army with no less than 10,000 low-level non-commissioned officers of various kinds every year....

The level of knowledge and command ability of the troops has been raised. All kinds of equipment. Of course, you have to keep up.

It is backed up by many military purchases from the United States and a steady stream of military production from its own country. In three years, a full ten heavy tank divisions and more than 3,000 heavy tanks were secretly equipped with troops.

For medium tanks with the advantage of speed and agility, twenty of them were secretly assembled at once. That's more than six thousand. More importantly, under Liu Hua's reminder and suggestion, all of these tank units, without exception, were secretly hidden in the steppe on the Sino-Soviet border in order to deal with possible Sino-Soviet border conflicts in the future.

As for the Air Force, it has already grown from 500 purely American fighters in the early days of liberation to more than 3,000 now. It contains not only the latest new domestic fighters, but also the large-scale combat fleet of the original American fighters...

On the naval side, a large number of destroyers, cruisers, and even the hulls of aircraft carriers were towed back from the Japanese mainland. After five years of construction in several major shipyards, it has been in service with the Navy.

At this moment, the entire Chinese navy has two heavy aircraft carrier formations. One medium aircraft carrier group, one light aircraft carrier group, three coastal defense fleets. A river defense fleet. In terms of the number and degree of sophistication of the warships, it is no less than that of the "Japan" Combined Fleet of the year...

Of course, in addition to these original developments, what makes Liu Hua feel most excited is the continuous research and development of some new equipment.

After the turbojet engine technology was completely introduced into China. It is not only directly applied to the Air Force, but also applied to the army aviation helicopter that Liu Hua has been longing for for a long time.

After five years of development and innovation, China's air force has not only secretly developed and equipped six of the world's most advanced jet fighter regiments because of this technology. More importantly, in the last year, helicopters were finally really used in military warfare, and a whole five army aviation regiments were produced and equipped. There are more than one hundred and fifty army helicopters.

…,

Similarly, good progress has also been made in the research of missile units and nuclear weapons, on which Liu Hua pinned high hopes, especially in missile research.

According to Liu Hua's ideas on missile development in later generations, China's first missile unit directly under the Central Military Commission was secretly established a year ago.

Though. Because there is no satellite navigation system, the missiles equipped by the troops today are not comparable with later generations in terms of range or accuracy. However, precision guidance, which is several tens of kilometers long, has fully met the requirements of today's social warfare.

Of course, in the middle of all the changes in this, especially in the middle of military changes. In addition to two heavy tank divisions, ten medium tank divisions, which were exposed to the world for the sake of deterrence. Eight heavy tank divisions, ten medium tank divisions, six jet fighter regiments, five army aviation regiments, missile forces ... Except for a few members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau, no one more outsiders know.

Because of the sudden rise of the Northeast Field Army of China, the Red Army of the Soviet Far East, which was adjacent to China, did not engage in a series of bloody battles with the Japanese Kwantung Army in the Far East in World War II, as is the case in history.

At the end of World War II, all other Red Army members of the Soviet Union were personally commended by the General Secretary for their outstanding military exploits, with the exception of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East. As a result, for five years, military conflicts between China and the Soviet Union have always occurred without interruption. In the eyes of the commander of the Soviet Far East Army, since he did not get benefits from the Japanese himself in World War II, he had to get it back from the Chinese people.

In addition, in the eyes of this commander, even though the squadron has undergone a series of changes, the shadow of China's backward domestic industry and backward military equipment has been deeply rooted in the minds of all the Red Army in the Far East.

After several years of continuous expansion of various military conflicts, the Soviet Union's troops assembled on the Sino-Soviet border have changed from more than 200,000 at the beginning to 675,000 today, with a total of 45 divisions. Among them, there are almost 10,000 tanks of various types and more than 3,000 aircraft.

The General Headquarters of the Soviet Far Eastern Army, the chief of intelligence with the rank of major general on his shoulder, mysteriously knocked on the door of the office of the Supreme Commander of the Far Eastern Army.

"Comrade Director, you are in such a hurry, is there anything going on...."Looking at the head of the Intelligence Department of the Far Eastern Army in front of him, the commander who did not seem to be in a good mood asked with a frown.

"Yes, Commander....This is a secret telegram just sent by the commander of the 132nd Infantry Division stationed in Outer Mongolia....The surprise attack plan for Inner Mongolia has been formulated and is waiting for your review...."The director of intelligence said with a respectful face.

"Well, so soon....quickly send me Comrade Tosky's telegram....", the commander of the Far Eastern Army said directly with a look of excitement.

Invade and occupy Inner Mongolia, a Chinese country, and expand the territory of the Soviet Far East. This was a huge plan of aggression hatched by the commander of the Far Eastern Army, who had not achieved military success in World War II, and with the covert support of Stalin, over several years. Now, the whole plan has finally been worked out, and the army that should be deployed has been deployed for various reasons. As the executor of the plan, and the commander of the Far Eastern Army, who may also become a contributor to the expansion of the territory of the Soviet Union, of course, has the right to be excited.

After quickly reading the combat plan in his hand that had been rehearsed many times by the General Staff, the commander of the Far Eastern Army nodded very appreciatively and asked directly: "The squadron opposite, has there been any signs of large-scale mobilization and increase in troops in the recent period..."

"Report to the commander, still as usual, with simple regular military movements ...."

"Good... And one last question, has there been any change in the total strength of the opposing squadron, especially the size of the tank and aviation units...", the commander continued to ask.

"No, the opposite squadron still has only ten infantry divisions, five medium tank divisions, two aviation divisions deployed on the territory of Inner Mongolia. The total strength is less than a quarter of ours. As for the number of people on the border line, in the face of diplomatic pressure from our Soviet Union, only three infantry divisions and two medium tank divisions were deployed. If the Soviet Red Army suddenly launched a surprise attack with lightning speed, it would be enough to completely annihilate all the Chinese garrisons in Mongolia within a week, resulting in the fact that Inner Mongolia was actually occupied. ”

…,

"At that time, even if the Chinese government draws troops from all over the country to counterattack, it will not be able to match the more than 600,000 troops of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East..."

"Okay....Comrade Director, immediately give an order to all the commanders at the front, agreeing to proceed according to this plan...."

A military camp in Outer Mongolia, less than 10 kilometers from the border, does not look any different on the surface. However, if you go inside, you will find that there is a hole in the barracks.

In the military camp of Nuoda, there is hardly a single Outer Mongolian soldier or a strange soldier. As far as the eye can see, rows of steel monsters, that is, the latest heavy tanks equipped by the Soviet Union, are neatly parked in the barracks.

At the same time, a large-caliber howitzer with a black hole muzzle held high was also neatly standing in the middle of the barracks.

After almost a month of day and night, a tank brigade, an army infantry division, and a heavy artillery brigade of the Soviet Far Eastern Army, totaling 20,000 troops, all gathered here as the vanguard of the entire Soviet Red Army in the Far East, waiting for the final offensive order.

"Report to Comrade Division Commander, the command has agreed to the entire operational plan and asked our department to act according to the predetermined plan ....", Major General Ivanov, Chief of Staff of the Provisional Command of the Forward, reported to the lieutenant general and division commander in front of him.

"Very good, has there been any change in the squadron opposite....", the lieutenant general and division commander nodded and asked.

"The defending force is still an infantry regiment, and there is no heavy equipment except for a battalion of large-caliber howitzers.," replied the chief of staff of the major general with a look of excitement.

"Comrade Ivanov, we have finally waited for this moment. After tonight, we will be the heroes of the entire Soviet Union. Tank brigades, artillery brigades, 1st infantry brigades were ordered to be combat-ready. Once the battle starts, it is necessary to defeat and completely annihilate the current squadron at the first time. Then, the method of blitzkrieg was adopted, with the tank unit as the lead, the heavy artillery brigade as the cover, and the infantry following up, and quickly attacked and advanced to the next assembly point of the squadron..."

"Yes, Comrade Division Commander," replied Major General Ivanov confidently. (To be continued.)
