Back to the Republic of China to be a editor

Same as last year, Tang Hua's position is at the viewing platform on the left front side of Tiananmen Square.

This year's military parade... is not very different from last year.The 97 medium tanks and the M5 Stuart were the ones who passed Tiananmen. If you want to see the T-34 Torrent, it will probably be next year or even the year after.But there is still something to watch this year-the cavalry.In my impression, this is the most cavalry used in the National Day military parade.After 1951, the cavalry was just for decoration. After 1954, this branch no longer appeared in the parade troops.Since it is a classic that will be out of print in the future, of course you have to read it and take more photos.

The head of the military parade is the commander-in-chief, Nie Shuai, the commander-in-chief of the military parade.The American-style jeeps the two rode in inspected the army, air force, navy, and public security forces in turn. After the inspection, there was a separate process—the process was very similar to the later military parade.

The parade inspection began, and the infantry phalanx of the 199th Division was the first to change into the new military uniform of the large cap version.The mixed phalanx of the 66th Army and the 68th Army, the 1st Division of the Central Public Security Column, the Naval Brigade, the 3rd and 8th Artillery Training Bases, the 1st Chariot Brigade of the North China Military Region, the Amphibious Tank Regiment of the East China Military Region, and the 2rd Division of the 3nd Cavalry Division The division... well, here comes the cavalry.This military parade not only has cavalry, but also [-] horses in one breath.Three thousand fine horses galloped past without a single neigh, and the horses passed through the square tamely under the control of the soldiers.

While Tang Hua was clapping wildly at the cavalry phalanx, someone clapped him on the shoulder. "Oh, Deputy Commander Chang!"

"Minister Tang, don't shoot the cavalry, the plane is about to pass the scene, our Tu-2 special bomber transferred from Zhejiang!" Chang Qiankun, deputy commander of the Air Force, was also at the same viewing platform as Tang Hua, seeing the air above The team was about to end the game, so he squeezed over to find Tang Hua.

It was only then that Tang Hua remembered that the one who had passed the military parade this time really had a piece of equipment he had tinkered with.

A total of 28 aircraft participated in the military parade this time, including 2 Tu-6 bombers, all of which were Tu-2 special bombers that had participated in the battle on the southeast front.

Looking up at the sky, in fact, the Tu-2 special bomber that dropped the guided bomb was no different from the ordinary Tu-2. I could only listen to Chang Qiankun's explanation. The first three-aircraft formation participated in the Battle of Penghu, and it was to attack the national army for reinforcements. One of the members of the 5-ship formation; the second three-aircraft formation not only participated in the Penghu battle, but also participated in the volley battle against the retreating national army in the Taizhou Islands. In one attack, more than 3000 national army and a large number of heavy equipment were wiped out.

"It is our People's Air Force bomber unit that is passing over Tiananmen Square," the loudspeaker broadcasting to the masses in the square explained the military parade, "The heroic People's Air Force, in the battle to liberate all of China, defied powerful enemies and fought hard. In the Battle of Penghu, the bomber unit, with their superb combat skills and the precise special bombs developed by our country, sank and injured 8 enemy ships in one battle, completely smashing the counterattack of the Kuomintang reactionary navy, which was invincible before, and serving our army Liberated the Penghu Islands, marched smoothly to Taiwan, made great achievements..."

"Commander Liu and I have reviewed this commentary, and finally decided to mention the bomb." Chang Qiankun said, "This must be mentioned. Horizontal bombers do not use special bombs to attack the sea, and we do not need it." In other words, even experts from the Soviet Air Force knew that the bombing was useless. Guided bombs were the winning point in the sea and air battle in Penghu. Besides, mentioning special bombs will not reveal technical secrets.”

"I don't want to reveal that the Americans will also develop it themselves. It is normal for industrial powers to iterate their weapons and equipment. However, even if the Americans recover and catch up in this regard," Tang Hua said, "We can also come up with more advanced weapons and equipment. The next generation of products, let them continue to chase."

Chapter 65, I agree with the chairman's opinion on sending troops

"Comrade Mao ZD: If the Korean People's Army fails, North Korea will fall into the hands of the Western camp headed by the United States, and the political and military situation in the Far East will change immediately. The West must not allow the entire North Korea to be occupied. In order to achieve this minimum goal, whether It is possible for China to send troops into North Korea to directly support North Korea’s fight against the American and South Korean troops, and for the Soviet Union to provide relatively advanced weapons and ammunition to the backwardly equipped Chinese army.”

On the evening of October 10, Stalin sent an urgent telegram to Beijing.

On September 9, seeing that the war situation was completely irreversible, Kim Il Sung held an emergency meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.The meeting decided to seek help from the Soviet Union.After reading the telegram signed with the names of Kim Il Sung and Park Hyun Yong, Stalin was silent for a long time.In the end, it was decided to ask China to directly send troops to North Korea in a negotiating tone.

"The Soviet Union finally felt that the situation was not good." The commander-in-chief said, "North Korea is extremely anxious now, but before sending troops, we still have a lot of things to discuss with the Soviet Union."

That night, the central government sent a telegram to Stalin, stating that China had been closely monitoring the situation in North Korea and had made some preparations.But to directly confront the U.S. military, the current material conditions are too poor.Only by requesting the Soviet Air Force to directly participate in the war and provide us with the artillery weapons of 12 divisions, the heavy artillery equipment of 3 artillery divisions and 1 armored division, can we confront the US military.

On the morning of October 10, Stalin replied the telegram.It means that the Soviet Air Force cannot participate in the war, and they cannot directly confront the US military. The equipment of 2 infantry divisions, 12 artillery divisions, and 3 armored division can be gradually allocated from the armory in the Far East. China only needs to pay half the price, and the payment will be made in installments by means of loans.

"No, this condition is not enough." The Prime Minister spoke at the seminar, "North Korea is equally important to China and the Soviet Union. From the perspective of Soviet defense, they cannot allow the Pacific Fleet to have bases controlled by the United States tens of kilometers away, nor can they Let the Trans-Siberian Railway be within the combat radius of medium-sized bombers. From the perspective of the Eastern camp, the collapse of an ally with a population of 2000 million is a huge blow to the political credibility of the Soviet Union. They should and will certainly be willing to make greater efforts. "

"Comrade Stalin:

We originally planned to mobilize several divisions of volunteers to North Korea to help North Korean comrades when the enemy attacked north of the [-]th parallel.However, after careful consideration, we now believe that such a move would have extremely serious consequences.

First, it is difficult to solve the North Korean issue with a few divisions, and our army is not sure of winning the battle with the US military with the existing equipment, and the enemy will force us to retreat.

Second, it will lead to an open confrontation between the United States and China, and many comrades in the center believe that this must be done with caution.

Of course, if we don't send troops to aid, this is very detrimental to the North Korean comrades who are in such a difficult situation, and we ourselves can't bear it; If this causes an open conflict between the United States and China, our entire peace-building plan will be completely disrupted, and many people in the country will be dissatisfied with us. The wounds caused by the war have not yet healed, and the people need peace.

Therefore, at present, it is best to restrain yourself, not to send troops for the time being, and at the same time prepare your forces. Doing so will be more advantageous in terms of the timing of fighting the enemy. "

After receiving the chairman's reply on October 10, Stalin fell into deep thought, and then he called a special meeting of the Politburo.

The meeting decided that Stalin would come forward and send a telegram to the chairman.

"In the current situation, the Soviet Union agrees to send its air force to defend the northeast of our country, but it does not agree with its fighter jets crossing the border between China and North Korea. In terms of weapons and equipment, the Soviet Union is willing to provide us with divisional artillery, 2 artillery divisions, 3 self-propelled artillery regiments and 1 The equipment of a tank regiment, and the ammunition needed for these equipment to be put into combat for the rest of 1950.” The Prime Minister said, “The Air Force’s support to the Soviet Union is still not letting go, but the assistance of weapons and equipment can save us hundreds of millions of rubles. It can be said that Let our wallets breathe a sigh of relief."

"Since the Soviet Union has set these conditions, and it is estimated that it is the maximum price they can pay," the chairman said, "then convene an enlarged meeting of the Politburo to unify opinions within the party and prepare to make a decision."

……

Beijing is the only season with good weather from September to October.Now Beijing has strong wind and sand in spring, hot pot weather in summer, and freezing people in winter, so it is more comfortable in autumn.

During the surprise attack a week before the National Day, Tang Hua delivered enough shells to the Chairman and Prime Minister, and felt a lot more relaxed after the National Day military parade.Except for daily reading of documents and keeping track of the dynamics of the factories under the Industrial Bureau, there were no unexpected incidents.

Of course, Tang Hua knew that the unexpected work just didn't fall on him. There should be a small meeting every day in Haizi, and it is estimated that it will be held from October 10nd to October 2th.

Since he didn't need to work overtime, Tang Hua turned on the piano in the side room at night, took out the piano score he found from Zhang Lu, and played for half an hour and an hour.

"Tang Hua, why are you not as proficient at the piano as the guitar?"

Of course Zhou Xuan was also in the music room, resting her chin on her left hand, watching Tang Hua play a piece of uncomplicated music.

"I just played more when I was in the Soviet Union. The Soviets have very rigid views on music. If you play the electric guitar in front of them, they will throw you out of the concert hall through the window." Tang Hua said with a smile, " So in those two years, I learned the accordion and piano so-so.”

In fact, Tang Hua not only played the piano in the Soviet Union, but also practiced before time travel.When I was eight or nine years old.

"...The enlarged meeting of the Politburo...was recently held in Beijing," the voice of the news broadcast came from the radio.

"The Politburo..., Vice Chairman of the Military Commission..., Mr. He, member of the Central Military Commission,... Zhang Yunyi, Deng Zifei, Luo Ruiqing, Ye Ting..."

"Hey, Commander Ye, member of the Military Commission." Tang Hua heard a special name on the list.

"I seem to remember that he attended our wedding." Zhou Xuan said.

Tang Hua nodded. "Yes, the uncle who was taking pictures all over the venue. I started a band with him in Yan'an. He was a bass player at that time, and he was very talented in music. He learned the bass in a week. Of course, he is better at fighting than playing. The music is great too…”

Of course, Tang Hua paid attention to Ye Ting's affairs after returning to China.During the War of Liberation, he had only one teaching brigade and two newly-built brigades whose combat effectiveness only existed on paper. The first deputy commander of the People's Republic of China and a member of the Military Commission when the People's Republic of China was founded.

The vice chairman of the Military Commission is basically the later marshal.The member of the Military Commission, well, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a general.

Tang Hua remembered that when he watched the discussion on the forum before, many people agreed that "if he hadn't died, 95% of the time he might not be in the army, but if he was in the army, he could only be a marshal"

——It seems that the keyboard man's prediction is not very accurate.

……

Zhong-South-Hai, Yi Nian Tang.

In the past few days, not only the Politburo and the Military Commission held several meetings, but also held a discussion meeting including CPPCC and other people outside the party.

"The United States is too powerful. It won the war against Germany and Japan at the same time in World War II. We can't win."

"War with the United States will destroy the peace we have so hard to get"

……

During the discussion meeting of the CPPCC/Revolutionary Military Committee, Cai Tingkai frowned the whole time.

"The United States is now invading our Taiwan. They are pointing at North Korea, and they want to be detrimental to China. We did not take the initiative to destroy the peace, but the United States provoked it first. The United States wants to go to war with us..." Cai Tingkai gritted his teeth twice. , but "Let's fight!" After all, I still couldn't say the four words, and I wanted to raise my hand to agree, but my hand was so heavy that I couldn't lift it.This is not the era when I brought 19 to 5 people from the [-]th Route Army and fought as soon as I said it. There are too many considerations.

Enlarged Politburo meeting.The meeting will continue to discuss the situation in North Korea and whether China will send troops.

The venue of more than 20 people fell silent from time to time.

"Lin Biao is recuperating in Dalian, and he sent back his opinion," the commander-in-chief opened the telegram and read, "'I have considered the issue of sending troops for a long time. Our country has just been liberated, and the victory was hard-won. It was achieved by the bloodshed and sacrifice of countless martyrs. Yes. We are not as powerful as the United States, so we cannot get caught in the fire.'”

Lin Biao's injury was the same as Commander Su's, and it was real.He was shot twice in the eye by a high-powered rifle, and the distance from the spine was less than 3 centimeters. With the medical level of that era, it would be good to save a life, and there must be a lot of sequelae.But he was not in favor of sending troops, and the chairman was a little disappointed.
