Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Molotov replied: "While the Supreme Council of the Soviets and the Disaster Relief Committee are giving first aid, more powerful plans are being formulated, and actions may be taken within the next few days."

"When the Chinese dig the dam, the biggest victims should be the local residents. However, some foreign military experts commented that due to the flood, the Dragon Army will also suffer serious losses. It can be said that the Soviet Union was a blessing in disguise. I don't know the Foreign Affairs Committee Molotov What is the chairman's opinion?" The reporter from Hong Kong's "South China Daily" asked the question.

Molotov picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea: "There is an old saying in your country, that is, good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. To the enemy, the crime deserves what it deserves. To me, it is the help of God."

"I have a small request. I hope to conduct an on-site interview in Istria, so as to further expose the atrocities of the Chinese to the world." Once the British reporter proposed, all reporters agreed.

"Well...you can consider it." Molotov said thoughtfully, "It's just that Chinese planes often go to Istria to bomb and straf recently, I think we should wait until the current situation calms down to ensure everyone's safety. "

On the afternoon of January 1, it was less than half an hour after the press conference held by Molotov.Pu Yin is staying at his headquarters, which is a temporary building built with half-track armored personnel carriers and communication vehicles plus tents on a slope next to the highway from Mtsensk to Podolsk.

At this time, he is taking a nap.Since he has been busy directing battles these days, he has very little time to rest.So now that everything was going well, he quickly took the time to take a rest.At this time, he was sleeping very soundly.

Suddenly, I felt my body being shaken heavily, "Who? What happened?"

Pu Yin sat up and glanced around vigilantly, and soon he found his adjutant Zhang Xuesi standing in front of him respectfully.

"is there anything?"

"Something happened. I just received the information, and the chief of staff hopes that you will rush there as soon as possible!"

"Understood!" Pu Yin replied absent-mindedly, then stretched his waist, "Prepare me a cup of coffee." Having said this, he stood up, picked up his military uniform and put it on his body, opened the door and walked out.

When he came to the headquarters, it was already in chaos, with loud shouts, curses and orders mixed together.When Pu Yin pushed the door and entered, all the voices stopped.

"What's going on? What happened?" Pu Yin smiled as he looked at the people present.In his view, the main force of the entire Soviet army has been defeated, and it will take some time for their reserve forces to assemble. During this time, he can rush to Moscow.Of course, there may be a small setback in this process, but this setback is nothing to Long Jun.

At this moment, Zhang Xuesi came over with a coffee, and Pu Yin picked up the coffee: "Tell me, what happened?"

"Our advancing troops encountered a little obstacle on the way!" A staff officer replied in a low voice.

"Oh? Did you encounter resistance from the Soviet army, or did you encounter guerrillas? Or the logistical supplies couldn't keep up?"

"No!" the staff officer whispered: "We just received a communication from the forward troops, and they all said that the road ahead was washed away by the flood!"

"Flood?" Pu Yin froze for a moment, then shook his head lightly: "Don't worry so much. It's the rainy season in the Soviet Union at this time, and those dikes and dams were affected by the war and couldn't be rested, so some collapses occurred. At most, Let the ground get muddy. As soon as the weather is clear, you'll be fine."

"But the flood was very violent. In addition, according to what we learned from listening to the Soviet Russian radio station, it seems that a large reservoir on the other side was blown up!" The staff officer replied cautiously.

"What reservoir!" Hearing what the other party said, Pu Yin's heart tightened suddenly.

"It seems to be the Istria reservoir!"

"Ah!" There was only one thing in his mind, and that was that the Soviets must be crazy.Although before that, the possibility of the Soviet Union completely destroying the Istria Reservoir was specifically discussed.certainly.At that time, Pu Yin believed that the Soviets would not take the initiative to open the floodgates.Because if that were the case, it would be a disaster for the Soviet Union.But now, what he never imagined was that Stalin was really so ruthless and his determination was so strong. In order to prevent the Dragon Army from entering Moscow, he actually dared to open the gate and release the water.Thinking of this, Pu Yin broke into a cold sweat.

At this moment, a staff officer came to him quickly: "Commander-in-Chief, Mr. Feng wants to talk to you." Having said that, he handed the microphone to Pu Yin.

"I'm Pu Yin."

"I want to ask you, have your troops reached the Istria Reservoir?" Feng Xianghua asked on the phone.

"No?" Pu Yin replied subconsciously, "Our troops haven't arrived there yet, we encountered a little trouble there, the Soviets..."

"Did your artillery fire in the direction of Istria?" Before Pu Yin could finish speaking, Feng Xianghua continued to ask.

"Of course not!" Pu Yin immediately asked back: "Our troops haven't arrived there yet, how could my artillery fire there? Feng Gong, the roads leading to the Istria region have all been washed away by the flood now. Yes. My forward troops are soaking in the water now. Think about how they could reach Istria? How could the artillery be erected? Duke Feng, are you kidding me?"

"I'm not kidding you! You should know what happened, right?"

"I know, this is what I'm about to report to you. I just got the news from the vanguard that our vanguard was hit by a flood. By listening to the news of the Soviet radio station, it seems that the Istria Reservoir Bombed!" After a slight pause for a few seconds, he continued: "I think Stalin is crazy!"

"Stalin is not crazy!" Feng Xianghua said loudly on the phone: "Now you may not know the situation behind, the Soviets have now pushed all the things that blew up the dam on us, saying that we wanted to attack Moscow to the maximum extent. Kill them, so frenziedly blow up the dam." Feng Xianghua said the words "frenzied" very emphatically.

"What? We blew it up?" Pu Yin asked after a long while, "The Soviets really said that?"

"Can this be false?" Feng Xianghua said angrily in another part of the phone: "Those Soviets not only declared so on the radio, but also held a press conference. The reporter said that we Chinese destroyed the reservoir and caused this disaster. The emperor called me directly and asked me if I sent troops to destroy the dam, so I will call you now. You know, if If we really did it, then the matter will be passive. I want to ask you, are you really sure that your men have not moved the dam?"

Who Controls Ups and Downs: The Third World War (Closed Volume) Chapter 360 Seventh Press Conference

Pu Yin fell into deep thought. Stalin's move changed from passive to active. Not only did he play it very viciously, but he also played it very cleverly, causing the entire Chinese military to become a mess. More importantly, he took a moral advantage instead. , thus shaping the Chinese side into a devil group that does all kinds of evil.Although I wanted to refute it very much, I couldn't think of any way for a while.More importantly, I don't know whether my troops have reached the Istria Reservoir area to destroy it.If it was really his own troops who destroyed it, how should this situation be restored.Even so, Pu Yin suddenly said into the phone: "Marshal, I have never touched the dam here, and I dare to guarantee it with my life and honor!"

As soon as he said these words, the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then Feng Xianghua slowly said: "Since this is the case, I am relieved. I have always been worried that the army's troops did not grasp the situation. Now it seems that there should be no such thing as us." What, now I can completely shift the responsibility to the Air Force!"

"Why push it to the Air Force?" Pu Yin asked suspiciously, because he still hasn't figured out what's going on.

"I've heard that the entire Western countries are now pointing the blame at us, and I personally think that the air force is more likely. So, let the air force bear the blame."

However, Pu Yin did not think that the Air Force could do such an earth-shattering thing.You must know that blowing up a dam is not a simple matter.At least, judging from the dam body of the Istria Reservoir, the base of the Istria Reservoir dam is 38 meters wide and the top is 9 meters wide, all of which are reinforced concrete structures.If the dam is to be blown up from a high altitude, based on the destructive power of the giant bomb to the dam, an average of one ton of explosives exploded underwater can probably blow up the reinforced concrete of the reservoir dam more than 3 meters thick.The specific number of sorties depends on the size of the target.In addition, when an aircraft needs to drop a 10-ton super bomb from an altitude of 1.2 meters, and it must hit the target accurately, the difficulty can be imagined.The first difficulty is how to accurately determine the bomb drop point.If you want to blow it up in one fell swoop, you must put it in the middle of the dam.If aviation torpedoes are used to attack, there are many other factors. First of all, the charge of torpedoes is mostly between 200 and 300 kg, which is far less powerful than heavy bombs. Although torpedoes can blow through the armor of battleships, if you want to directly It is still very difficult to penetrate the dam of the reservoir, and the terrain also makes it difficult for the air force to succeed.The second difficulty is how to confirm the altitude of the aircraft.Pilots must fly horizontally at a height of 18 meters above the lake, neither too high nor too low.

Judging from the history of the world that Pu Yin understands.There are some cases of bombing dams, but not many. In his memory, it seems that only the United Kingdom and the United States have done such things.First, during World War II, the British Air Force blew up three dams in the Ruhr area of ​​Germany.At that time, in order to blow up the dam, the British military specially designed a special giant aerial bomb.The bomb is 1.6 meters high, 1.27 meters in diameter, shaped like a barrel, and contains 3 tons of RDX explosives, with a total weight of 8.325 tons. It is a jumping bomb.If the bomb is dropped from a low altitude, it can spin at 500 revolutions per minute while leaping across the water, avoiding lightning protection nets.With this kind of bomb, sticking to the dam and detonating it in water 9 meters deep from the water surface, the dam can be completely destroyed.In order to blow up the dam accurately, the British army successfully solved the latter two technical difficulties.The first is how to accurately determine the bomb drop point.For this, the British solution is that they learned from the photos taken by the reconnaissance plane that there is a surveillance tower every 180 meters on both sides of the reservoir dam, equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns.The British army decided to use surveillance towers to solve the bomb drop problem.The pilot uses an isosceles triangular plate, punches an observation hole at the top, nails a nail at both ends of the bottom edge to make a simple sight, and drops the bomb immediately when he observes that the nail overlaps with the monitoring tower to form a straight line. In this way, The problem of accurately determining the drop point of the bomb is solved.The second difficulty is how to confirm the altitude of the aircraft.Lieutenant Colonel Gibson of the British Army came up with a way to install two spotlights on the nose and belly of the aircraft. Through calculations, adjust the angle so that when they intersect, the vertical distance from the fuselage to the focus of the light is exactly 18 meters, which solves the problem. question.

Pu Yin said: "Mr. Feng, I think, not only should we not shift the responsibility to the Air Force, but on the contrary, we need to help the Air Force speak well."

"Oh? Why?" Feng Xianghua felt very strange, and asked back: "Do you think the Air Force didn't blow up that dam?"

"I don't think the Air Force bombed that dam at all, and they don't have the ability." Speaking of this, Pu Yin told the other party some of the conclusions he had just thought about with reservations.

Feng Xianghua fell into deep thought, and after a while, he said, "You mean, we don't want to make trouble for the Air Force right now?"

"The final outcome of the whole battle has not yet been determined. At this time, neither the Air Force nor the Army can rashly take the blame."

"You mean we won't say anything?" Feng Xianghua continued to ask.

"Sometimes, what should be said still has to be said. I think that at this time, the spirit of intimacy between the Army and the Air Force should be reflected. So I personally think that we should help the Air Force to tide over this difficulty?"

"You mean we're here to clarify the truth of the matter?"

"more or less!"

"What kind of clarification method? You must know that the place where the accident happened is under the control of the Soviets, and they can create perjury evidence as they want. What's more, the international public opinion is all against them."

"It's actually very simple. Sometimes you make things too complicated. We only need to do one thing, which is to attack, because our emperor once said that a lie told ten thousand times is the truth, and time It is the last weapon to curb lies, so we don’t need to care about what is a lie, so what is the truth, as long as we can change everything here. At that time, the media of all countries in the world will not say anything. Even if they say, in their strength If it has not been achieved, I will not rashly talk nonsense. After all, the whole world is built on the basis of strength. Therefore, I think what we need now is to attack, continue to attack violently, and hit the opponent's capital all the way— -Moscow!"

Just after the Soviet foreign ministry and the media at home and abroad unanimously condemned the Chinese for doing such a dehumanizing thing, their army did not sit idle.Zhukov took advantage of the opportunity when the forward troops of the Dragon Army stopped, and began to mobilize the troops desperately.He scavenged his few troops from Eastern Europe, and then loaded them all on trains and transported them to the front line.At the same time, those factories that had just been relocated to the Far East also began to desperately produce weapons, equipment and ammunition to meet the needs of the front line.

At the same time as these mobilizations were being made, the Soviet propaganda machine was also at full capacity to publicize the atrocities of the Dragon Army.The Russian news agency TASS has been publicizing the atrocities carried out by the Dragon Army on Russian soil in a high-profile manner for several days, mainly including the inhumane examples of hanging innocent people and shooting prisoners of war in the occupied areas. On May 5, Stalin in Moscow suddenly announced the posthumous title of Hero of the United Nations to an 16-year-old girl named Zoya Kasmodemyanskaya.At the same time, TASS also published a photo of the girl being hanged, and announced her deeds in a high-profile manner.

The little girl was unfortunately arrested by the enemy when she burned the stables of the Dragon Army in the village of Petrischevo, which is one kilometer west of Moscow, at the end of last year. After that, she was brutally flogged.Although she was tortured, she refused to reveal any secrets.At the age of 18, she shouted to the Chinese soldiers and the local onlookers: "You can hang me, I am not alone, we have [-] million people, and they will avenge me! Soldiers of the Dragon Army, take advantage of this! It's not too late, surrender now, victory is ours!" She said to the villagers: "Farewell, comrades! Don't be afraid, fight them... It is a supreme happiness to die for one's own people !..."

In the face of the Soviets' aggressive propaganda and uproarious photo offensive, the spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry also seemed very depressed.At a routine press conference, when a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was asked about this matter by reporters, he replied very depressed: "I am not very clear about the whole situation, but one thing I know is that , the little girl was executed for espionage in a non-combat zone in civilian clothing. Our army did not violate the International Convention (as stipulated in the Geneva Conventions. Legal belligerents include the armed forces of both sides Members of the irregular army, civilian army, and guerrillas are protected. Spies and mercenaries do not have the status of legal belligerents. If they are captured, they do not enjoy the treatment of prisoners of war, but if they are sentenced, they must go through a court-martial The trial.) What’s worse, I didn’t know that person was a little girl. I really didn’t expect that the Soviets would use an 18-year-old girl as a tool of war. This country is really terrible!”

However, the spokesperson's words did not satisfy the majority of the media. They began to search for other voices in China. Some reporters even went directly to the headquarters of the Central Army Group to ask Li Zongren and Pu Yin, who was commanding the battle on the front line, about this issue.

Facing the swarming reporters, Pu Yin replied with a smile: "I think everyone is asking me whether the matter is true or not. To me, it doesn't matter whether the little girl is a spy or not. Did we kill her?" It is not important, because the thing has already happened, and people have died. Now I think the most important thing is how to deal with the aftermath of this thing. This is also the attitude of the empire. Although I personally think that the army under me does not exist The phenomenon of killing innocent people indiscriminately, but this matter still needs to be thoroughly investigated. Our army is an army that is world-renowned for its strict discipline. It is also a civilized and mighty army. Regarding this matter I must investigate thoroughly. No matter who it is, if something goes against the honor of a soldier, I will not tolerate it." After a pause, he continued: "Here, I express my sincere condolences to the little girl who was hanged. Condolences. Although she is our enemy, I still admire her. After all, I am shocked that she can still be so strong in the face of death. Of course, one thing to note is that a certain country is in It’s a great irony to claim that we have done things that violate international law and international conventions, but forget that they themselves have not complied with these conventions. Because they themselves have not joined this convention at all. Isn’t this a great irony!”
