The photo was sent out through Room 12, and for this reason, Room 12 was upgraded by one level. At this time, Teng Gang had been dismissed, and Jian 12 became Teng Gang's top boss.

All this was before the success of the French giant artillery, and Meng Xiang only considered using the 457 mm shore artillery to deter the devils and leave more time for the defense of Qingdao and Yantai. But now that he had the French cannon, he wished that the devil might come over so that he could try its might.

The attack of the devil he was expecting did not come, and without the cover of air power, the devil would not be easily dispatched. At this time, his energy was concentrated on Soviet Russia.

Chongguang Kui's mediation diplomacy failed, and the Russians directly and unequivocally rejected Yue's request to evacuate Zhang Gufeng.

However, Zhang Gufeng's strategic location involved the security of the puppet Manchurians and North Korea, and the base camp was determined to recapture Zhang Gufeng. They were also afraid that Soviet Russia would use this as an excuse to interfere in the affairs of China, so this attack was carried out by the army in Korea. The reason why the base camp made such a decision was entirely because the army kidnapped their will again, because the arrogance of the army stationed in Korea made them start to attack Soviet Russia again.

On the 28th, he launched the first tentative attack, and then the 19th Division's Odaka Guishou stepped up the attack on the 30th, and recaptured Zhanggu Peak and Shacao Peak in one fell swoop. He said that he was still hesitating in internal contradictions, but he only occupied Zhang Gufeng and did not intend to expand. However, the Russians quickly counterattacked on the 2nd, directly bombarding Zhanggufeng and Shacaofeng through artillery and aircraft.

At this time, the internal cleanup of Soviet Russia was continuous, and the commander of the Far Eastern Army of Soviet Russia, Bryucher, did not dare to slack off, and personally ran to the front line to command. Two divisions were dispatched at once, and under the cover of aircraft, tanks and heavy artillery, they continued to attack the devils. At this time, it coincided with heavy rains, and some bridges leading to North Korea were washed away, and the Soviet Russian army took the opportunity to cut off his own supplies.

The Russian Pacific Fleet was also dispatched to blockade the Tumen River, which forced the Navy, which had opposed the attack, to brace itself to deal with the Russian fleet.

This is one of the reasons why the Vanguard has not been attacked by the navy.

In the same way, the Devil's army did not attack the vanguard army on a large scale. After the last raid of Qingdao and Yantai by the vanguard army, the two places have not fully recovered. Without the support of the Jinpu and Jiaoji lines, Qingdao's strategic location is not so important. As long as Weihai is still there, Yantai's port transit role has been reduced a lot.

Weihai's reinforcements continued, but they were mainly defensive.

The devils can't draw too much strength to attack the vanguard army these days, and they are storming Zhengzhou.

"Go across the canal!" Meng Xiang ordered. Internal construction will take time, but if the central army in Zhengzhou is quickly defeated, the vanguard army will be under even greater pressure.

On July 31, when he heard that he was counterattacking Soviet Russia at Zhanggufeng, Meng Xiang ordered the 41st Division to attack, directly crossing the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and attacking southwest Lu.

Now stationed in southwest Lu is the 10th Division, which has not yet been rejuvenated, has been continuously beaten by the vanguard army, and the newly replenished team has also been disabled. For the time being, the country has transferred manpower to defend the northern side, and the 10th Division has not been well replenished, and now there are less than 10,000 combatants. Although they had been defending themselves against the attack of the Vanguard Army, they could not stop it when the Vanguard Army was overwhelmingly attacking.

The vanguard army's attack is sharp and the strongest attack power has been unanimously recognized by the devils in North China and Central China.

For each attack, planes, tanks, and artillery went into battle together, and the threat on the position was almost cleared first, and then the infantry attacked with the barrage.

Although the method is known, there is no actual way to crack it. The firepower is not as good as that of people, and the strength is too poor, so you can only be beaten passively.

When more than 40 planes of the vanguard army bombed the positions of the 10th Division repeatedly, in the face of the continuous bombardment of the eight 150-mm K16 heavy guns and 36 105 howitzers on the east bank of the canal, the commander of the new division, Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinohara, could only order a retreat at this time.

In the attack of an hour just now, the losses reported had exceeded 1,000 people, but more than half of the artillery had been destroyed.

"This battle can't be fought!" Yoshio Shinohara complained that the four planes that routinely came to disturb him were surrounded by more than a dozen planes as soon as they arrived nearby, and they were beaten up and turned into four fireworks. All air supremacy fell into the hands of the vanguard army, and the little anti-aircraft fire in the division that had not been replenished was beaten by the vanguard army after two rounds of ground-air attacks. The devils on the ground can only be passively bombed, and even Yoshio Shinohara's command post was blown up into the sky by the roaring Stuka, if it weren't for Stuka's screaming sound that was too frightening, everyone hid out in advance, otherwise he wouldn't be standing here.

"Where have all the planes of the Reich gone? Without planes and artillery, without reinforcements, how can I delay for ten days? If you can hold on to this for three days, it's good. Yoshio Shinohara kept cursing this order from Shouichi Terauchi in his heart.

"Attack!" Shouichi Terauchi ran to Xinxiang at this time to sit in town in person. In the face of the two armies of the Vanguard Army and the Central Army, attacking at the same time can only disperse the forces, and it is better to concentrate on knocking out one side first. He even gave Shinohara Yoshio an order that he could keep retreating, but he had to buy ten days for the emperor's [***] team to break through Zhengzhou. At this time, Zhengzhou was already in danger, and several times the army attacked the city, but it was beaten out by the central army.

There are many elites of the Central Army concentrated here, as long as it is not a retreat, the defense of the Central Army follows the tradition of the ancestors, and it has always been good against the devils. Although Zhengzhou is in crisis, Xue Yue is still sure to hold Zhengzhou.

Lao Jiang has been paying anxious attention to Zhengzhou these days, and he has also heard about Zhang Gufeng's affairs, and he is full of hope for Soviet Russia's interference. But the immediate urgency is the crisis in Zhengzhou. The devils are already on guard, and the practice of replacing the army with water will not work. Fortunately, after the vanguard army attacked east, it came to the west again.

In order to cooperate with the actions of the Soviet Russians in Zhang Gufeng, it was necessary to hold in Zhengzhou and echo the Soviet Russians from afar, but the intervention of the vanguard army was another good time to get rid of the burden of Zhengzhou and turn the spearhead to the vanguard army.

"Why do you always fight the Central Army instead of Meng Yuebai?" Lao Jiang also wondered in his heart, is he really a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch?

"This is not like the style of the 10th Division!" Fan Chong listened to the information while frowning on the side of the sand table, "They retreated step by step, and they didn't panic, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be a trap, this can only be explained that they are delaying time, Zhengzhou is in danger!" ”

"Leave them alone. If they retreat, we will attack, at least to the front line of Dongmingji, Cao County, Shanxian County, and Pei County. Meng Xiang said categorically, if the strength is strong, you can ignore some small schemes. The real war is a contest of strength on both sides. What can the devil do with Lao Jiang's tricks? At this time, the No. 11 base car had already crossed the canal, and drove towards the Heze area with the attacking army. The base expands, even if it stands.

There was no suspense in the battle between the 10th Division and the Vanguard Army, and it retreated step by step, and it withdrew from Heze in three days.

At this time, Terauchi Shouichi sent him an order that he could not retreat anymore and held Dongmingji and Cao County.

But only one day later, the artillery fire of the vanguard army blasted open the wall of Cao County and drove the devils out. The next day, Dongmingji was also lost.

Facing the reprimand of Shouichi in the temple, Yoshio Shinohara was also wronged. The speed of the vanguard army's assault was too fast, and before it could gain a foothold and prepare for it, the artillery fire from that side came first. Although those large-caliber artillery did not come, the 76 guns on the vanguard tank were enough to pose a great threat to the dilapidated walls of the small county town.

"You must guard Lanfeng and Shangqiu!" Shouichi Terauchi's order this time was not only to the 10th Division, but also to the 16th Division garrisoned in these two places.

"The logistics are tight, and the supply is really not available!" Wang Geng complained at Meng Xiang.

The vanguard army fought outside the direct jurisdiction of the base, and without the support of the base, logistical support would be much more difficult. When it came to Heze, the ammunition and fuel sent to the front line all the time made Wang Geng complain, and the quantity was too large. After fighting Heze, there was a shortage of logistical supplies. At the end of the day, it's logistics. The pressure of logistical supply in modern warfare, even if Meng Xiang is constantly solving, is still not enough for personnel and vehicles.

It's okay if it's a slow supply, the key is that the vanguard army is advancing too fast. So that the logistics vehicles can't keep up.

"Don't worry, just take a break." Meng Xiang also knew that according to the current logistical conditions of the vanguard army, it was okay to replenish for three days, but it would be very tense for five days. In the same continuous battle, the soldiers' spirits have been tense and need to be relaxed. Battles in the vanguard army rarely lasted more than three days, not only because of logistics, but also because the soldiers needed a reasonable rest.

The 81st Division followed in the rear and took over part of the 41st Division's defensive line.

At this time, the No. 11 base has been deployed in a wild forest between Dingtao, Caoxian, and Chengwu. The camouflage effect of the forest is better, and the area directly under the jurisdiction of the Yellow River and Longhai can be directly covered after the location is upgraded. A radar station built on the border can monitor the movements of the planes of the surrounding devils at any time.

There are a lot of coal resources near Cao County, Heze and Chengwu, and Meng Xiang heard a friend of Cao County boast that Cao County has more than 3 billion tons of coal. There is no shortage of energy, and the base can continuously produce logistical supplies.

With Meng Xiang's order, mining plants, power stations, chariot factories, logistics equipment centers, repair shops and other buildings were built one after another.

The mining vehicle successfully found the coal mine, but it was buried a little deep, but the mining vehicle used the probe tube mining technology, and directly went to the well drilling, stretching out a long thick probe tube deep into the ground to directly absorb the minerals. At the end, there were only a few round well-like holes left in the ground, and when the time came, the earth was filled and buried outside, and it was impossible to see from the outside.

When Meng Xiang heard Xiaohua's meaning, it seemed that there was a more superb mining method, which involved the theory of time and space. But there is no such thing in the second and third level bases.

With energy, this sub-base in Heze continues to upgrade and expand its scale.

The stagnation of the vanguard attack also relieved the devils, and they concentrated their forces to continue the attack on Zhengzhou.

For three days in a row, the Central Army, which had been beaten bitterly by the fierce attacks of the devils, began to be in a hurry.

At this time, the devil was also discussing the issue of a ceasefire in Soviet Russia. Because of the lack of supplies, the 19th Division of the devil saw that the siege in Zhanggufeng, Shacaofeng and other places was about to be annihilated, and he had to propose an armistice to Soviet Russia. On the 10th, the parties signed a ceasefire agreement in Moscow. On the same day, Lao Chiang, who was close to Soviet Russia, learned about it from some unofficial sources.

"Niang Xipi!" Lao Jiang said angrily, Soviet Russia is really unreliable. They didn't plan to fight too hard with him. Britain and the United States and other countries are watching the show.

As soon as the Soviet Union signed an armistice with himself, although this kind of thing was not credible, his troops in the puppet Manchurians were no longer so nervous, and he was able to send a few divisions to North China and Central China.

At that time, the armistice and confrontation along the Yangtze River may be rekindled again, and there will be more and more critical Zhengzhou. After so many days of fighting, the descendants of the Central Army also suffered heavy casualties, which made Lao Jiang feel distressed, these armies are gone, how will the country be governed in the future? So to suppress those warlords?

"Prepare to start the evacuation plan!" Lao Jiang ordered directly.

On the 11th, when Zhang Gufeng's army and the Soviet Russian army negotiated a ceasefire agreement in Zhang Gufeng, Meng Xiang knew that the conflict was over. Stalin had no intention of fighting with himself, his energies were at home. Expelled into exile, Trotsky formed the Fourth International in Paris this year to oppose the Third International. Meng Xiang didn't know who he was before, but after reading the information, he knew that this person was a super bull. As a close comrade-in-arms of Lenin and the founder of the Red Army, his presence directly threatened Stalin's position.

At this time, there were many contradictions in Soviet Russia, and Stalin's prestige was not at its peak, and many people were still inclined to Trotsky. Although the economy of Soviet Russia has developed rapidly, there has been a deviation in the severity of the situation, and it has not met people's expectations. As the economic crisis in the Western world slowly passed, various contradictions in the economic development of Soviet Russia were revealed. When the new generation grows up, how to choose in the face of veterans who have already stood in full positions?

A decade or two after the establishment of the new regime, those young regime founders are still in their prime. However, the new generation who have been trained by systematic education has little chance of getting ahead, and after 20 years of expansion and stability, all the vacancies have been filled. The ascending passage was directly blocked by those exploits. That's where authority comes in.

And so, on the basis of various reasons, the Great Purge of Soviet Russia began.
