Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

The fact that Ding Wei borrowed 3 million rubles from the Russians was a thorn in his heart.

In just two or three years, hundreds of millions of dollars in interest will have to be repaid.

Even loan sharks aren't that cruel.

The best way is not to pay it back.

It's okay to act like a rogue, but it takes strength to be able to act like a rogue against the Russians.

At this perfect time, at the right opportunity, the two cavalry divisions gained a lot of spoils of war.

A batch of cattle and sheep were confiscated.

By the way, he recruited more than 1700 cavalrymen and trained them under Sun Desheng.

The bandits, the remaining armed forces, and the Outer Mongolian armed forces were all hit hard. These idle troops were simply unable to compete with the cavalry division.

The captured rifles, muskets and supplies were all brought back.

They rushed into the Mengjiang area in a show of force and strolled around the territory of Outer Mongolia.

This is a very bad signal. The Outer Mongolian army has only 10,000 troops, and their combat effectiveness is poor. They are far from being a match for the cavalry division.

Only by mobilizing the motorized infantry division can we suppress Sun Desheng's cavalry division.

At this point, Arnov finally understood that Ding Wei had great ambitions and wanted to settle in Outer Mongolia?

Haha, what an ungrateful person! An ungrateful person who can never be tamed.

Thanks to him for always transporting supplies to the Suirecha Military Region, as well as tanks, planes, fuel and equipment.

This matter has nothing to do with whether or not the country is ungrateful. Why is Outer Mongolia close to the Russians? It is because they took advantage of the warlord separatism and directly stationed 3 troops in Outer Mongolia.

It led to the abolition of the constitutional monarchy and the establishment of a republic.

In this matter, the Russians were extremely unkind.

You can be unkind, but I can’t take advantage of others?

Isn't this a complete double standard?

The good friendship was instantly severed, Arnold was so angry that he threw the cup, and the beard on his face flickered.

"I never thought that my dear comrade would stab me in the back."

"General, now is not the time to worry about the Su-re-cha military region. We should consider the mobilization of the Japanese army. Once we give them the opportunity, they will threaten our Siberian railway line."

The staff helped him analyze the current situation and they did not dare to gamble.

Through various judgments, it can be concluded that this was a performance between the Kwantung Army and the Suirecha Military Region.

It can be left alone.

But is it really possible?

The Japs are crazy and irrational. If they get a chance, they will definitely push towards the Siberian railway line.

Threatening the Far East Army's rear.

These little dwarfs have the fanaticism in their heads like crazy people.

There are currently two options: send more troops to the Hulun area to confront the Japanese Sixth Army, or send more troops to the Outer Mongolia area to contain the active range of Ding Wei's Cavalry Division.

Once Ding Wei's troops entered Outer Mongolia, the situation became unclear.

The biggest problem of the Far Eastern Army was that it had no troops. Due to the intense counterattack on the Western Front, it was unable to spare any extra troops.

A feasible option is to maintain friendship with the Sui-Re-Cha Military Region, win over Ding Wei, and jointly fight against the Kwantung Army.

It is necessary to compromise on two things. One is to lower the interest rate on the loan for the Suirecha Military Region.

Regarding the situation in Outer Mongolia, we should slow down the pace appropriately.

Arnold has no say in such matters.

The signalman hurried over to report the latest situation on the front line. Sun Desheng's two cavalry divisions had arrived in the East and Central Gobi Provinces.

The enemy's horse hooves left footprints within the territory of Outer Mongolia.

Large areas of Gobi and grassland are suitable for cavalry units to deploy. In places with vast land and sparse population, there are not many soldiers, and once they are stationed, they will be in trouble.

Ulaanbaatar can be threatened at any time.

It is a foregone conclusion that the cavalry division of Suirecha will enter the Gobi Province. As long as Ding Wei tries to smooth things over, the Outer Mongolian garrison will have no chance of driving them away.

What? You, the Russians, are allowed to station troops there, but I, Ding Wei, am not allowed to?

For several days in a row, the Japanese's actions became more and more radical, and there was a hidden danger within the Kwantung Army.

Sometimes the commander was unable to stop the fanatical soldiers. In a fit of excitement, a small group of troops actually broke through the defense line and charged towards the Far East Army.

The gunshots broke the peace and disrupted the stability of the Hulun area.

Anov deployed two tank brigades and two armored brigades here and quickly arranged troops to engage in battle.

The sound of artillery and gunfire swept across the area, blocking the enemy's attack.

The small group of Japanese troops completely ignored orders and shot and killed the Russians when they saw them.

Drive trucks and ram enemy tanks to alleviate the problem of lack of armored forces.

Another group of people, shirtless and holding explosives in their hands, rushed towards the Soviet tanks.

The sudden opening of fire slapped Arnold's staff in the face.

"The Japanese army attacked. Who told you that the Japanese army dared not attack?"

His face changed suddenly, because there were very few troops in the Hulun area, and even if there were mechanized troops, they might not be able to gain an advantage over the Japanese.

Those crazy guys have blown up 14 tanks in a row.

Fight or retreat?

Any decision could detonate the powder keg of the Far East.

The Soviets had never thought through or prepared for a war in the Far East.

There were pro-war factions within the Far East Army Headquarters who suggested taking the initiative in declaring war, stuffing rifles into the Japs' asses and killing all those bastards.

The hatred between the Russians and the Japanese is also quite intense.

The two sides have frequently exchanged fire since the last century, with each side having won and lost.

The Japanese won the Sino-Russian War, but refused to pay compensation afterwards, and the matter was left unresolved.

Given the chance to fight, most Soviet officers were willing to join the war.

However, the current Soviet army cannot afford the consumption of fighting on both the eastern and western fronts.

He immediately made the most rational decision to stabilize the Suirecha Military Region, send more troops to the Hulun area, and reduce the number of troops stationed in Outer Mongolia.

Once Dezi on the western front is dealt with, there are a thousand ways to deal with Ding Wei's troops.

Arnov quickly edited the telegram, "My dear Ding, don't let the deal destroy our friendship. Moscow has agreed to reduce the interest on the support and only needs to pay 0.3 million rubles."

Anov did not respond to the matter regarding the Mengjiang region, seemingly tacitly agreeing that Ding Wei's cavalry division could move freely in and out of Gobi Province.

After receiving a reply from the Suirecha Military Region, the relationship between the two sides remained "good".

The motorized infantry division was able to be deployed to the Kulun area to fight against the crazy Japanese invaders, and the two sides opened fire near Kulun Lake.

The number of troops deployed was not large, and was maintained at a scale of approximately one thousand people.

The desired goal was achieved, and Ding Wei asked the military factory in Wucheng to produce the 50 small cannon according to the drawings to verify the performance of the mortar.

What he wanted more was a 60mm mortar, which was best suited for company-platoon combat.

The 50mm mortar is still a little small.

Small is better than nothing. In the battalion and company organization, six 6mm mortars and nine 81mm guns can be considered to enhance the supporting firepower of the company and platoon.

Of course, being small also has its advantages. It is easier to produce and requires fewer resources.

With Wucheng's current military industrial capacity, if it puts full production effort into it, it could produce 200 guns a month.

It is enough to equip Ding Wei's main battalion. One battalion has 9 50mm guns and fewer grenade launchers, and the basic firepower can be doubled.

It can specifically counter light and heavy machine guns, with a range of up to 800 meters, making it perfect for company and platoon charges.

It can be said that we have obtained another innovative weapon and equipment from Brother Mao.

The production technology requirements of mortars are low, and they are made using blueprints, which saves a lot of time.

It will take two or three months to complete the troops' equipment replacement.
