Rebirth of the National Marshal

While Qiu Qingquan was commanding his troops to launch fierce attacks in the south and east, the 100th and 1th Security Regiments, with a total of about 3 to people, were also not idle. With the help of tanks and more than modified vehicles, they quickly penetrated the west of Irkutsk. On the west side, there was a Soviet infantry division defending. Facing the attack of the th Security Regiment, they fought tenaciously. However, after an hour's fighting, the infantry division, which had lost more than /, began to retreat.

Mao Yuanshan's combat strategy was very simple. The troops of the 40th and 40th Security Regiments must be infiltrated from the west to cut off the enemy's retreat. Mao Yuanshan had a big appetite. He wanted to eat up these Soviet troops. When the combat plan was passed back to the headquarters, Mr. Chiang Bai-ri said "good" three times in a row. This kind of praise was the first time in Mr. Chiang Bai-ri's life. He did not expect Mao Yuanshan to have such a broad vision and actually wanted to encircle and annihilate these Soviet troops. This appetite was really too big. Even if he was on the front line, he would not dare to make such a decision, because it was too risky. If he failed, he might be wiped out.

"We can't let the Chinese cut off our retreat. These 40 troops are our vital force. As long as we keep these 40 troops, the Far East Military Region will not be able to remain silent. Even if they conquer the whole Siberia, I can't lose these 40 troops. As long as I still have these 40 troops, no matter where I am, I will be a constraint on them. If they really encircle and annihilate our 40 troops, the entire Far East region will belong to the Chinese, and they can go wherever they want. Don't forget that besides Irkutsk, we also have other places. Now I order all the troops to retreat to the north immediately." After all, the Soviets still had several planes, and during their aerial reconnaissance, Marshal Timoshenko immediately judged Mao Yuanshan's intention.

He wanted to eat up his 40 troops, which was absolutely impossible. He must not let the enemy eat up these 40 troops. If they really did, it would be just as he said, the Soviet Far East would be handed over, and the door to the central Siberia region would also be opened. At that time, heavy troops would be needed from all over the country. At that time, it would not be a matter of 40 troops, but most likely millions of troops. The situation in Europe was already very tense, and not many troops could be withdrawn. If millions of troops were really withdrawn from Europe, the Germans would be really happy.

Admiral Dudin on the side wanted to say something, but he still closed his mouth. At this time, he knew very well that no one would listen to him if he said anything. The people here were all pure soldiers. Those political commissars who were not soldiers were all driven out. The war situation had deteriorated to such an extent that it was simply useless to keep those people. The reason why he was still kept was because his family was still very powerful in Moscow. Otherwise, he would have to go outside and slowly escape for his life like those political commissars. Thinking of this, Admiral Dudin was still very grateful to Marshal Timoshenko. At least he didn't need to walk on his legs and had a car.

In fact, if we choose to retreat, going west along the railway line should be the best route. But Marshal Timoshenko knew very well that if we went west along the railway line, the enemy's air force would directly blow up the railway line, so what should we do? Everyone would walk along the railway line, and the speed would stop. Although there were still many cars, most of them were just decorations because the fuel supply was not timely. The security group was different. They had already achieved mechanized advancement. At that time, we would run in front with our legs and the tanks and cars would chase behind with wheels. In the end, we would be caught up and wiped out by them.

The retreat to the north is completely different. To the north are the Black Mountains and Black Waters, as well as a large number of subarctic coniferous forests. Once you are inside those forests, mechanized equipment will be of no use. The 40 troops will basically be preserved, and then you can start guerrilla warfare with these people. If you want to continue the attack, then these 40 people will definitely be a nightmare for you. We will constantly disrupt your transportation on the traffic lines and even find gaps to rush into Mongolia and crush your industrial areas.

Many people would say that we are a regular Soviet army and we will not do such a thing. We should fight them openly, even if we die on the battlefield. However, all those who said this were arrested by Marshal Timoshenko. If you want to fight them openly, just go ahead and I will never stop you.

In this state, if you want to fight against others, it is simply courting death. Look at what weapons they use and what they eat. What weapons do you use? They have planes in the sky and cannons and tanks below. What do you have? Just a group of defeated soldiers infected with the mood of failure. They can't stand the slightest thing. They are thinking about how to settle down and have no fighting spirit.

Marshal Timoshenko's plan is very clear. As long as I still have the army and this manpower, you will not be able to do whatever you want in Siberia. Although there are still many cities around, I don't want them now. If I follow the traditional method and resist one city after another, it will only make your fighting more and more smooth. If you accumulate experience in attacking cities, the cities behind will be of no defensive use.

Now I will do the opposite. You can't imagine that I will lead my troops into the deep mountains and forests. I will just go like this. Although feeding 40 troops will be a big problem, it is better than capturing all of you. There are many animals in there, and we Soviet soldiers can hold on.

When the small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft transmitted this information back, Mao Yuanshan was also dumbfounded. This was the move he feared the most. He never expected that Timoshenko was so courageous that he would bring hundreds of thousands of people into the woods to fight a guerrilla war with him. Guerrilla warfare was a headache for all regular armies.
