While Hu Zhiyong was providing disaster relief, Zhukov's troops in the Middle East began a massive counterattack. Stalin followed Hu Zhiyong's advice and was determined to fight to the death. The little Japanese could not stand it any longer and had to resist and shrink their positions.
"Use superior troops and superior equipment to attack them all the way!" Zhukov is indeed a brilliant military strategist, and he quickly found a way to attack the Japanese army. What made him even more excited was that two or three corps were thrown into the enemy's rear and quickly inserted themselves behind the Japanese army.
Got a knife!
On the second and third lines, the Indian troops quickly collapsed, causing the Japanese troops to abandon their positions and run toward the southeast as if they were infected with an infectious disease. Zhukov ordered thousands of guns to fire, and a large number of tank troops began to attack.
The Japanese tank troops also rushed over and staged a tank battle in the Middle East!
Hou Dashun stared at the screen closely and said to Hu Zhiyong: "Master, this method of fighting is too stupid."
"This is the World War II era when the Fudo navy, land and air forces were used!" Hu Zhiyong pointed to the positions and group armies of both sides: "If helicopters and bombers are used to attack, equipped with ground-to-air missiles, the tank troops will be wiped out very quickly!"
Historically, the Battle of Kursk was a strategic decisive battle between the Soviet Red Army and the German fascists in the Kursk salient area in 1943. In terms of the scale of the battle, it was the largest tank battle in the history of human warfare.
Now, in order to regain the Middle East as soon as possible, Stalin actually staged this drama with the little devils. The Japanese army assembled a total of 17 tank divisions, 3 motorized divisions and 18 infantry divisions, equipped with 2,700 tanks and 2,050 combat aircraft.
There are about 10,000 artillery pieces and mortars, with a total force of more than 900,000 people.
The Soviet Supreme Command decided to retaliate in kind and use all its strength to confront the enemy. The Soviet Army’s Strategy
The deployment is: General Rokossovsky will lead six armies of the Central Front to defend the northern front; General Bashchin will lead six armies of the Voronezh Front to defend the southern front; the Steppe Front will be the strategic reserve. The Soviet army invested
The total strength is 1.836 million, equipped with 3,600 tanks and assault artillery, 20,000 artillery pieces and 3,130 aircraft. The overall commander is Marshal Zhukov.
The two sides completed their strategic build-up and faced each other with 2 million troops. A bloody battle began with the Soviet army's strategic deployment of striking first and gaining the upper hand. The attack began at dawn the next day after the deployment was completed.
Faced with this situation, the Japanese army decided to change the surprise attack into a strong attack, with tanks as the vanguard, followed by a large number of infantry. The attacking tanks from all directions were arranged in a wedge shape, and the impact was carried out at a density of 100 vehicles per square kilometer. At the same time,
120 bombers, covered by fighter jets, launched a frantic bombing campaign against the Soviet positions.
stick to
The Soviet army on the first line of defense fought a fierce battle with the German army. They were outnumbered and outnumbered. They relied on tanks, anti-tank guns, and Molotov cocktails filled with gasoline to attack the Japanese army head-on.
For a time, the entire battlefield was filled with smoke and flames. The whistling of artillery shells, deafening explosions, firing of automatic weapons, and the roar of tank motors were intertwined and thrilling.
After two days of fierce fighting, both the Soviet and Japanese armies suffered heavy losses. On the battlefield littered with corpses, about 400 swaying tank wrecks were thrown down. The Soviet army paid a huge price in this battle and finally completed the battle.
The Japanese army was divided and surrounded.
The islanders lost the courage and confidence to continue fighting against the Soviet Red Army. In addition, the Indian troops in the rear surrendered and fled in large numbers, and finally withdrew from Turkmenistan and Tajikistan.
The Soviet army took back the Middle East and took the opportunity to occupy Afghanistan. Stalin did not let Zhukov continue to use troops, but began to build positions and prepare to defend through the winter of 1943.
Germany could no longer attack the Soviet Union, but it was a blessing in disguise that it lost a powerful enemy. It was inseparable from Britain, which was a nightmare for Churchill!
The U.S. military occupied Italy, and he kept calling, hoping that the Allied forces would attack Germany quickly. Roosevelt stared at the map for a long time and said: "Attack France first, and then form a pincer attack from two sides!"
On October 13, Italy declared war on Germany. During the Pacific War, the US military began to attack Bougainville Island.
Bougainville, the largest island in the Solomon Islands, has Japanese air force bases on Buka Island in the north and Papua New Guinea in the south. The Japanese Navy has naval bases in the Shortland Islands in the south. These bases are used to defend New Britain.
Rabaul and support its military operations in other islands in the Solomon Islands.
In early October, the US military began air strikes on Rabaul, Bougainville and other places. On November 1, the US military landed at Queen Augusta Bay on the west coast of the island and crushed the Japanese resistance. By dusk, 14,000 people landed ashore and established a beachhead.
position.
The next day, the Japanese navy stationed in Rabaul dispatched two heavy cruisers and two light cruisers, and six destroyers, and arrived in the waters near Torokina in an attempt to attack the US landing force and implement counter-landing.
The U.S. Navy's Task Force 39 went to intercept, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle. As a result, the Japanese Navy was sunk by a light cruiser and a destroyer, and a U.S. destroyer was sunk.
The Japanese army carried out six aviation assaults one after another, with little effect. Due to heavy losses, they gradually lost sea and air control in the waters near Bu Island, and the defenders on the island fell into an isolated and helpless situation.
The one million recruits recruited by Hu Zhiyong began to be reorganized after two months of intense training. Twenty capable recruit divisions were transported to the Far East, while other troops remained in Henan, Guangdong and other places.
After the disaster relief work came to an end, Hu Zhiyong began selling grain at low prices here to ensure that tens of millions of people had a chance to survive the famine. After the epidemic and the disaster were brought under control, Hu Zhiyong and Hou Dashun left.
After passing Shanghai, Hu Zhiyong said to Aji, who had replaced Ma Xiandeng in the defense here: "Three divisions of new troops will arrive soon. You must be prepared."
"Master, with my division and the cooperation with the air force and navy, we can prevent those with ulterior motives!" Aji believed that there was no need to arrange so many troops.
"This is called shock!" Hu Zhiyong does not want to fight with the Kuomintang and Red Party troops. As long as he can scare them, the mission has been completed. Shanghai cannot be destroyed by war. No matter who wins the civil war, he will hand over this pearl city.
go out.
The island nation obtained steel and food, and its ambitions suddenly swelled. They could not send out aircraft for bombing, but they continued to use hydrogen balloons to carry bombs and incendiary bombs to attack their opponents.
Hu Zhiyong returned to Phoenix City and thought happily: "There are only two years left before the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. I will take the opportunity to refine and store the rare mineral deposits. The British will come to occupy Southeast Asia, which will be a huge threat to me."

The blood wolf unit has finished suppressing bandits. Where should we send this unit?
"Report, we have successfully used artificial snowfall in New Mexico. It has been snowing heavily all day and night, and I am afraid it will continue for two days." The director of the satellite observation station came over to report.
"Okay!" Hu Zhiyong was happy. He estimated that Roosevelt would come to visit him soon: "With this land, we can finally feed millions of people! Investment must use a lot of money!"
The heavy snowfall was a mixed blessing for Roosevelt. The nuclear contamination made him relieved, and he had sent a special envoy to negotiate with Hu Zhiyong. However, production and transportation have become more difficult, which may delay the end of World War II.
"Your Excellency, according to your deployment, we have begun to reorganize the Italian and French armies." The chief of staff walked in and said to Roosevelt.
"We have supplies, so we must keep the death rate to a minimum!" Roosevelt sighed. After entering the war, Americans had already died enough!
"You can't give away those European bastards for nothing!" General Marshall, the Chief of Staff of the US Army, said angrily: "Sell the supplies to Hu Zhiyong at a low price and let him transport them and sell them to Italy and France."
"Okay!" Roosevelt smiled: "Just say that the German blockade makes it impossible to transport, so we have to do this."
"yes!"
Hu Zhiyong was extremely reluctant to work as a transport team for the US military. For the sake of money and profits, he agreed to Roosevelt's suggestion. When talking about the issue of New Mexico, Hu Zhiyong expressed his aggrieved voice in frustration.
"Mr. Special Envoy, it is most appropriate for us to invest half and half and share the benefits and losses equally. New Mexico covers an area of 115,000 square kilometers and will have a population of more than one million immigrants in 50 years. How many immigrants are you going to handle for me?" Hu Zhiyong is not a fool and must put his words first.
.
"Two hundred thousand!" Hopkins stretched out his finger and made a sign of two.
"Half a million!"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Four hundred thousand!"
The two of them were fighting over each other, and Hopkins chuckled and said, "Three hundred thousand, are you satisfied with this?"
"Please tell me the amount of investment!" Hu Zhiyong suppressed his laughter and began to negotiate investment issues again.
"The total investment will be divided into fifty years. How about we each spend 20 billion?" Hopkins asked tentatively.
"Okay!" Hu Zhiyong drew out a check and said to the guard company commander: "Inform my second brother and let him come in."
After Hu Zhiqiang came in, he heard that the 20 billion would be given to him to invest in the United States. He was surprised and said: "I am not a business person. I will lose everything!"
"Hahahaha!" Hu Zhiyong sneered and laughed, and said to Hu Zhiqiang: "With this shrewd ambassador here, you will not lose money. I will ask my second uncle to help you, and New Mexico will be the beginning of your business!"
"Second uncle?" Hu Zhiqiang said happily: "Okay, I promise you!"
"Mr. Special Envoy, the first step is the water diversion project, and then the chemical plants, machinery plants and other factories and mines. First, build the residential areas, industrial areas and supporting water circuits to avoid duplication of investment and waste of funds." Hu Zhiyong came up with an early plan.
He handed the planned drawings to Hopkins.
"You are so cunning!" Hopkins felt like a failure. Hu Zhiyong had already planned everything.
"Because, I am a businessman!" Hu Zhiyong smiled proudly!
