Chapter 978: The Role of the Heart of Central Asia Battle Discussion
Although in China, due to the advice of the Minister of Culture Li Ziwen, the newspaper did not mention the Battle of the Heart of Central Asia, the Chinese who returned from Riben and other countries passed the news to their compatriots at home, and the Chinese defeated the Caucasian race alone for the first time! China has won big! Overseas Chinese have burst into tears, and many Chinese do not hesitate to anger the local zhèngfu to set off firecrackers and even dragon and lion dances to celebrate this victory. China's victory has excited the overseas Chinese, who look forward to the strength of the motherland and the prosperity of the motherland more than anyone else, and they even hope that China will become a world-class country again than the Chinese people at home. Only if their homeland becomes the number one country in the world will they be respected by other countries and they will be safer.
The head of the Hongmen Sect, who was in the United States, also immediately asked the KMT about the truth of the incident, but the response he received was that the KMT did not know about it -- the KMT still learned from foreign newspapers that China had defeated the Russians.
Many of the people who received the news of the victory cheered for China's victory over Soviet Russia -- but they were also full of wonders why the victory was not made public. What is the state waiting for?
Only the second day after the ban was carried out, the Minister of Culture, Li Ziwen, was a little difficult to withstand the pressure from all walks of life, especially from the Progressive Party and the Kuomintang, as well as some former Beiyang gentry celebrities, who demanded that the news of our great victory be hidden, did we suffer heavy losses?
Li Ziwen had no choice but to urgently ask to see Wang Maoru, telling Wang Maoru that the All-China Federation of Newspaper Industry Trade Unions had already submitted an application to the Ministry of Culture, and that various literati and artists had already sharpened their fists. I hope to be able to spread this exciting news. Many people in the Ministry of Culture support the broadcast, Li Ziwen is already a little unable to suppress it, everyone's reason is why can't the news of China's victory be known to the people of the whole country?
Three days have passed since the Battle of the Western Regions. At the same time, German non-commissioned officers arrived in the Western Regions Military Region one after another, and they were immediately dispatched to various regiments, especially the Yellow Dragon Regiment, as instructors or non-commissioned officers, which immediately restored the combat effectiveness of the Western Regions Military Region to the pre-war level. Some German officials also revealed the news, compared to spies in various countries. These German ** officers, who served as instructors in the Chinese National Defense Forces, were obviously witnesses.
China really won a big victory, and the Soviet Russian empire was a mess.
As for how much of a role this battle will have, and whether it will play a positive or negative role for China. It has been discussed all over the world.
Not only during the war, it caused some controversy among military officers, but also caused a lot of discussion both internationally and at home. Although they could understand Wang Maoru's decision to settle peace in the first war, many so-called experts also began to discuss whether it would be better to fight with Soviet Russia on the territory of the Russians. So many people died. Can China still rise?
Because the Wehrmacht soldiers are registered, all missing soldiers on the battlefield are counted as killed, so the casualties on the Chinese side are recorded in great detail, with 70,561 casualties, including 33,658 killed, 36,251 wounded, and 652 seriously wounded and captured. Because the ashes of the Chinese people who died in battle are managed by the Military Affairs Headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense, they will be moved into the Chinese Heroic Soul Martyrs' Shrine in the future to be sacrificed by the whole country. As a result, the F-FDTL counts the dead with great accuracy, and all missing soldiers are counted as martyrs. Even deserters were counted and recorded in the Wehrmacht's war history, with an indication of why they could not enter the Martyrs' Shrine to pay their respects to future generations. Because the Chinese record history is accurate to the individual. Therefore, world historians and scholars of Chinese war history have highly recognized the number of casualties on both sides in the Battle of the Heart of Central Asia recorded by the Chinese National Defense Forces.
The Chinese side's casualty record of the Soviet army includes many battles in the entire Western Regions War, including not only the Battle of Kyzyl, but also the Ambush of the Ares Salt Marsh, the Tashkent Uprising, the Annihilation of the Chu River, the Battle of Semipalatinsk, the Battle of Balkhash, the Battle of Karamay, etc., the total number of Soviet casualties on the battlefield is about 190,000, and a total of 66,276 people were captured, of which as many as 63,000 Soviet soldiers were captured in the Battle of Kyzyl alone. However, in fact, the number of soldiers lost by Soviet Russia was more than 30,000 more than the Wehrmacht had calculated, reaching 220,000, and under the instruction of Ren Yuanxing, commander of the Western Regions Military District, and Zhu Yongquan, chief of staff, various localities were settling accounts with Soviet prisoners of war and suspected Soviet intelligence personnel. More than 30,000 people were shot, buried alive or even hanged in subsequent activities, or sent to confessional camps to be massacred in an organized manner. Especially in Tashkent, Song Zheyuan, the commander of the 91st Brigade of the Wehrmacht stationed here, carried out a "suspected crime" plan in retaliation for the insurrection launched by the Central Asians, and won the title of Song Bancheng, because he killed half of the people in Tashkent. The stability of the Western Regions does not depend on civilization, but on human heads and blood.
In the records of the Chinese, the casualties of the Chinese side were even less than one-third of the casualties of the Soviet Russian Empire, but the Russian zhèngfu believed that the Chinese number jù was false, and the number they gave was that the Soviet army was killed and captured about 70,000, and the squadron casualties were as high as 200,000. The Chinese have covered up their casualty figures in exchange for national self-confidence, and their return of the Kyzyl fortress and the Kizikum desert after the war is an attempt to cover up their huge casualty figures.
Of course, in fact, others can also say that the Soviet Russian zhèngfu is also to make it easier to face up, expand China's casualties, and reduce its own casualties. Because all the statistics of the Soviet Russian zhèngfu are said to be from the descriptions of the Bolshevik party members, there is not an accurate number at all, they are completely talking to themselves. Naturally, the world's military enthusiasts will not adopt their information, but some of the "public knowledge" who like to attack China in later generations do not believe in the number of the Wehrmacht, but think that the number of Bolsheviks is accurate, so as to criticize China.
To analyze the victory or defeat of a battle, in addition to comparing the casualties of the two sides, it is also necessary to analyze whether the two sides have achieved their respective strategic objectives. For Soviet Russia, it was a battle for the position of the Soviet army in Asia, as well as a battle against China's resurgent power in Central Asia. As a result, the Soviet army suffered a crushing defeat, the commander of the Eastern Army, Blyukher, was removed from his post, Soviet Russia had to restart negotiations, and the chairman of the Supreme Soviet Military Council, Trotsky, had to resign from his post and take responsibility. And this fiasco also made the various peoples of Central Asia honest, and no longer dared to doubt China's dominance in Central Asia, and no one dared to challenge the status of the Chinese.
The Chinese side launched this campaign for three purposes: first, to prevent the expansion of Soviet Russia in Asia, second, to use this campaign to announce the rise of the Chinese, and third, to establish China's position in Asia and even in the world, and to establish China's influence in Central Asia.
An extremely important aspect shows how remarkable the results China has achieved in the aftermath of this campaign.
Before the Battle of the Heart of Asia, China established diplomatic relations with the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Mexico and other countries, and within six months after the end of the campaign, the Central Asian countries of the Kingdom of Afghanistan, the Republic of Iran, and the Republic of Turkey sent ambassadors to China in the hope of establishing diplomatic relations, while the South American countries Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, Brazil, and Peru also sent ambassadors in the hope of establishing diplomatic relations, and as for the European countries, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, the Kingdom of Austria, the Kingdom of Hungary, the Republic of Finland, the Kingdom of Norway, and the Kingdom of Sweden, the Kingdom of Portugal, the Republic of Croatia, etc., have also hoped to establish diplomatic relations. China's diplomatic undertaking has also made leaps and bounds -- practice has proved that if you want to be respected by others, you must show better ability than others.
A hundred years later, some public intellectuals who privately worked for white people used the Internet to hype the theory of the uselessness of the Heart of Central Asia, emphasizing that Central Asia should be returned to Central Asians and that yellow should be withdrawn from Central Asia, and they also took the opportunity to criticize the genocide policy implemented by the Chinese in Central Asia, listing ten people as the culprits of the massacre, including: Ren Yuanxing, Zhu Yongquan, Chen Jiongming, Du Baosan, Wang Jiejun, Zhao Hengxi, Chang Rujiu, Yang Zengxin, of course, these nine people are not worth one person, and there is their top boss Wang Maoru. Perhaps it is the reason that there are too many Chinese, and the Chinese are extremely disunited, not to mention that other people's ancestors should also take out and scold, that is, their own ancestors, some people take money and have no moral bottom line to scold. (Analogy with the Korean War, is it really as useless to China as some people say it is?) )
Of course, Wang Mao, who was anonymously accused on the Internet by some later well-known Han Jiān as the greatest butcher of the twentieth century, was busy dealing with Sino-Soviet relations, redefining the status of both sides, and how to make both sides get a suitable ending. China was unable to send troops to Russia and force Russia to sign an unequal treaty, and China did not want to provoke Russia, so that Russia would vent all its anger on China.
First, the purpose of the Kizil fortress is to annihilate the living forces of the Soviet army, to force the Soviet army to re-evaluate China, and to ensure the interests of the Chinese side in the Sino-Soviet Friendship Treaty. second, how to reward the meritorious men of this campaign; Third, how the victory in the Heart of Central Asia campaign needs to be announced in order to enhance national confidence without leading China down the path of militarism; Fourth, how to return to the negotiating table with Soviet Russia, after all, the political problem still needs to be solved by the government, and war cannot solve all problems.
