Probably because the mental pressure that Comrade Stalin endured was unimaginable to ordinary people, so he seemed to have a little mental problem!It may be delusional disorder, or it may be schizophrenia, in short, there is something wrong with the brain.It's okay when the disease doesn't attack, but it's no different from a normal person, and he can continue to use his genius brain to think about the future of the world revolution and the way out of the Soviet Red Army... But when he gets sick, he will talk nonsense He also became suspicious, distrusting all the people around him, and regarded them as spies sent by the Russian Empress Anastasinia!That is to say, trust Beria a little bit, so Comrade Beria has been by Stalin's side these two days.

"It's better." Beria smiled and greeted Zhukov: "Comrade Zhukov, come in. Comrade Stalin wants to know the latest situation."

Zhukov and Beria smiled wryly at each other, and followed him into Stalin's tent.Working next to Stalin is like accompanying a king like a tiger, not to mention that this tiger is crazy!I really don't know how long this red flag will last!As for the issue of replacing the great leader and finding someone who is not crazy to lead the world revolution... Zhukov has considered it, but with the current situation of the Red Army, it really cannot withstand a little internal shock. Come on, I'm afraid the red flag is about to fall!

Besides, the job of the great leader of the Soviet Union is obviously fatal!Whoever sits on it cannot survive.Whether it is the Russian Empress Anastasinia, or the leaders of the Communist Party of China who intend to fight for the leadership of the world revolution, it is impossible to accommodate the supreme leader of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union!Therefore, no one wants to seek to usurp the throne at this time.

As soon as he entered the tent, a strong smell of tobacco came to his face. Zhukov frowned and waved his arms a few times to disperse some of the smoke.I saw Stalin staring at the map expressionlessly, with his iconic carved pipe dangling from his mouth.

"Comrade Stalin, are you looking for me?" Zhukov stepped forward and saluted Stalin respectfully.

"Georgi Konstantinovich," Stalin nodded slightly at Zhukov, with a smile on his face, holding a pipe in his right hand, pointing to the map and said: "We are now almost out of the Balochistan region. , where should we go next? Should we go northeast and enter the territory of the Muslim coalition forces, or go east and enter the territory of the New Delhi government of India?"

Stalin's thick eyebrows frowned slightly again, and his eyes were fixed on the map again.It seems... not aware of the fact that I have gone crazy!Still racking their brains about the way out for the Soviet Red Army and the Bolshevik Party.

Zhukov sighed in his heart, but he still maintained a solemn expression on his face. He also looked at the map and said for a long time: "My suggestion is to take the Eastern Front to avoid conflicts with the Muslim coalition forces. At present, the Indian Central Army is fighting with the Chinese Communist Party. Fighting fiercely in West Bengal, Chinese troops surrounded Calcutta..."

"Wait, when did the thing you're talking about happen?" Stalin interrupted Zhukov, looking at him suspiciously.He only vaguely remembered that the Chinese army launched an attack on the Indian defense line in the south of West Bengal, but he did not remember the siege of Calcutta.

Zhukov turned around and met Beria's eyes. Beria took the topic and replied: "Comrade Stalin, because our radio station had a little trouble in the past two days, so these news will be delivered to you without you."

Stalin hesitated for a while, as if he was trying to remember something. After a while, he nodded and said: "Oh, I remembered, it seems that there is something wrong with the radio station." He paused and asked: "Then how is the situation now?" ? Are the Chinese going to take Calcutta?"

"Not yet, India's Mahatma Gandhi entered Calcutta on July 7, and called on the Indian people to fight against the Communist Party, defend the country, and declared that he would live and die with Calcutta. Therefore, the main force of the Northwest Military Region of India has been transferred eastward one after another. Going to fight China, we are under a lot less pressure."

"Then, we should go east and cross the Indu River near Multan, and then enter the Punjab region." Stalin said indifferently: "I remember that the Punjab region is the most agriculturally developed region in India. If we get there, we should be able to Let the troops get a break."

Zhukov shook his head slowly, "Comrade Stalin, it may be difficult for us to gain a foothold in Punjab...It is close to the Indian capital New Delhi, and the Indian reactionaries will definitely try their best to encircle us."

"Then where are we going?" Stalin frowned. He had already learned how powerful Indian Ah San was, and he had a little Indiaphobia.

"It's still going north and attacking south!" Zhukov took a deep breath and replied: "We have now raised the banner of going north to resist China, and if we attack east and enter Punjab, the Indians will definitely think that we are going north to Kashmir and Himachal. region. And we feinted at the gates of New Delhi and headed south into central India..."

……

Jiangxi, the summer capital of the national government, Mount Lu.

"Auxiliary commander, Wang Junhao's telegram, the Indian Army General Staff in New Delhi ordered Ma Zixiang (Ma Bufang)'s Muslim coalition forces to enter the hinterland of Punjab to intercept the remnants of Stalin's Red Army!"

Bai Chongxi, deputy chief of staff, walked quickly into Luo Yaoguo's office.As soon as he entered the door, he happily reported the good news to Luo Yaoguo.

"Oh, is it?" Luo Yaoguo took the telegram from Bai Chongxi, read it carefully, and then smiled lightly: "It seems that the big problem in India will be solved soon! Nehru and Slim must be crazy , Knowing that Ma Bufang is one of our people, and let his 10,000+ army enter the hinterland of Punjab, isn’t this leading the wolf into the house?”

Punjab is one of the few big states in India. If this state is lost, Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and the northwestern border region of India will all be lost.If the Indian army loses again in the war with the CCP in West Bengal, Ma Bufang’s Muslim coalition forces can go further south to capture the Sindh region, and then they can openly separate from India and establish the Pakistani state!And this Pakistan is a bit stronger than the Pakistan in history. Although it lost the mountainous area of ​​Balochistan, it gained the entire Punjab (only half in history), Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh. It is a big country in South Asia.

And the CCP’s battle in West Bengal is also very likely to win. At that time, Bengal, Assam, Odisha, Jharkhand and Bihar in eastern India will also fall into the hands of the CCP, so that the eastern part of India It will split again... If Stalin is lucky, he may be able to separate another territory in India and establish a country. In this way, if Balochistan is counted, there will be five countries on the ground of British India!Although there are a few fewer than the original plan, it is not bad to be able to do so. Besides, the four countries will definitely fight for many years!

Luo Yaoguo got up and walked to the Indian military map hanging on the wall, he pondered for a moment and asked again: "Brother Jiansheng, what do you think Ma Bufang should do next?"

"Of course it's raising the bandits to be self-respecting!" Bai Chongxi said with a sneer: "Now Stalin has about 10,000 troops, and he doesn't have many good weapons. Ma Zixiang's [-]+ people are all good guns and cannons provided by us. , and has undergone strict training, it is easy to eliminate Stalin. But in that way, India will lose a big enemy, too?"

Luo Yaoguo nodded noncommittally, and hesitated: "Will there be any risk of raising tigers? This Stalin is clamoring to go north to fight against China. It will be troublesome if he is really allowed to enter Tibet."

"Invade Tibet?" Bai Chongxi snorted coldly and shook his head: "If an army of one hundred thousand goes to Tibet, they will have to drink the northwest wind. And... when the time comes, our army will also be able to enter India justifiably, with a blockade at both ends." , Stalin starved to death on the snow mountain.”

Luo Yaoguo smiled: "That's the case. Besides, we're not afraid of him going to Tibet. There are only a few lama temples there. It's up to Stalin to demolish, burn, or simply become a monk and become a lama." He said a joke, He patted the map again and said, "Then let Ma Bufang stand still?"

"No," Bai Chongxi picked up a baton and pointed it at Lahore in the central part of Punjab. New Delhi is not far away! Let the Indians and Stalin fight another battle outside New Delhi." He then pointed the baton at the two northern states of Punjab. "However, Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh will be taken by Ma Zixiang. In this way, their separatist regime in northwest India will be unshakable!"

"Well, good, let's do that."

Regarding Bai Chongxi's military separatist regime and his ability to build an independent kingdom, in Luo Yaoguo's mind, it was considered top-notch in the Republic of China.Therefore, Luo Yaoguo directly nodded and approved the suggestion given by Bai Chongxi.He paused and said again: "Brother Jiansheng, what do you think Chiang Kai-shek should do? The mission of the Chinese Expeditionary Force has almost been completed, and it seems that there is no need for the 10,000+ people to stay in Persia now."

Bai Chongxi was stunned when he heard the words, raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Luo Yaoguo, and said tentatively: "Brother Fuwen thinks it's time for Chiang Kai-shek to return to China? Or send him to the colony with the position of governor?" The strength and prestige of the government has soared due to the victory of the World War, and it is no longer something that a colonial governor can overthrow, so giving a colonial governor is not afraid of Lao Jiang playing tricks.

Luo Yaoguo waved his hand: "Don't let him out, I want him to return to the central government, but it's best not to serve in the military, and there is no suitable position for him. Brother Jiansheng, what do you think?"

Bai Chongxi frowned. He is an expert in military affairs, but he is a layman in politics.Just when he didn't know how to answer, he heard a knock on the office door.It was Zeng Qi who came in, the Minister of Colonial Affairs walked in with a serious face, as if he was worried about something.Luo Yaoguo waved to Zeng Qi, and said: "Brother Mu Han came just in time, I have something to ask for advice." Zeng Qi smiled and said: "I don't dare to ask for advice, brother Fu Wen encountered any problems?"

Luo Yaoguo smiled lightly: "It's not a difficult problem. We are discussing Chiang Kai-shek. What kind of official should we give him?"

Zeng Qi rolled his eyes and said with a chuckle, "Why don't you give Chiang Kai-shek the Minister of Colonial Affairs, my brother. This official is a hard job, with a lot of troubles. I'm already a little tired of doing it, brother."

Luo Yaoguo nodded, "Alright, let me give the Minister of Colonial Affairs to Lao Jiang." He thought for a while, "Hu Yisheng (Executive Chief) has recently been exposed to a scandal by the Democratic Revolutionary Committee, so it is estimated that the Executive Chief is inappropriate Going down, my uncle belongs to Wang Zhaoming, and when the Minister of Foreign Affairs is vacant, I will arrange for Brother Mu Han to take over."

Of course the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is more important than the Ministry of Colonial Affairs. Zeng Qi's face flashed with joy, and he cupped his hands at Luo Yaoguo and said, "Then I would like to thank Brother Fuwen for his cultivation."

Luo Yaoguo laughed: "It's just a little effort, why are you and my brother being polite? No one knows the great talent of Brother Mu Han? Back then, Brother Mu Han was the Prime Minister of the Republic of China. I think this job will be troublesome sooner or later. Yes." He paused for a moment, then said again: "By the way, is there any important matter for Brother Mu Han to come to my place?"

Zeng Qi took out a telegram from his suit pocket and handed it to Luo Yaoguo. He said with a wry smile, "I'm so happy to be patronizing, I almost forgot about serious things. This is a telegram sent to you by Zhou Enlai. They plan to hold a meeting in September 1939 The 9th World Congress of the Communist International wanted to usurp the power of the world revolutionary leader of the Soviet Union. The venue of the meeting was chosen in Beiping, and now many foreign communists have arrived one after another. Moreover, the CCP also asked us to send more police forces , maintain the order at the Peking Conference site, and prohibit reactionary elements from making trouble at the site!"

This Zeng Qi is Luo Yaoguo's confidant, and the channel for Luo Yaoguo to communicate with the Communist Party is to go through Zeng Qi as an intermediary, except that the representatives of the Communist Party directly come to the door.Regarding the matter of the World Congress of the Communist International, Zhou Enlai did not send another representative to Wuhan because there was a verbal agreement before, and he sent a telegram directly to Zeng Qi.

Luo Yaoguo took a look at the telegram and laughed a few times: "The CCP won the battle in West Bengal, and Stalin happened to be defeated in Karachi, so it's time to come out and seize the leadership of the Communist International. Now the Soviet Red Army is still on the way to flee, even There is no place to stand, and naturally it will not compete with them for leadership. The CCP has chosen a good time!" He thought for a while, "Brother Mu Han, call Zhou Enlai back and say that we have already received his telegram. Received, as long as the activities of the 8th Congress of the Communist International comply with the relevant laws, the Beiping Police Department will naturally protect the venue. As for the reactionaries...they also have the right to express their opinions! As long as it is within the scope of non-violence, we still have to protect it .”

Chapter 0902 anti-encirclement and long march (seventeen) to save Gandhi

Save Gandhi!Save India!

When the news that Mahatma Gandhi was surrounded by the "communist army" in Calcutta and only ate one meal a day came out, the entire "National Controlled Area" of India seemed to boil overnight!There are long queues at the gates of almost all conscription stations. Countless young Indians, whether they are Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists or Muslims, whether they are Brahmins or Dalits, have come to the conscription stations spontaneously, ready to use Blood and life to defend their "mahatma"!The bourgeoisie, landlords, and princes of India also felt that the matter was serious, knowing that if they don’t donate generously, they will die when the Communist Party rules the whole of India!Therefore, they have also provided large loans and donations to the New Delhi authorities.And the Indian army controlled by the New Delhi government is gathering in eastern India like crazy, preparing for a decisive battle with the South Asian Army of the Communist International!

Brigades and battalions of troops are flocking to Gandhi's besieged city by road, rail, and water.Throughout North India, there are scenes of people shouting Mas and the army rolling forward.On the vast plains east of the Ganges.Millions of troops gathered their luggage and rushed to the battlefield in West Bengal day and night desperately.Among them are the Indian Central Army, which is well-equipped and pulls a large number of artillery supplies, and the Indian local army, which is poorly equipped and only has infantry equipment, and there is not much training.However, all the armies are now marching like crazy. It seems that in the minds of these Indians, the only thing to do now is to reach West Bengal quickly and save Gandhi from the siege of the Communist Party!

The main force of the entire Indian army, now leaving behind Stalin's 1 remnants and defeated generals, is divided into two routes: north, center, and south, and quickly advances eastward from western India.The Center Group was directly transported by sea from Karachi to Mumbai by the 5st Armored Corps of the Indian Central Army (owed to the 7rd Armored Division), the 15st, 16th, 10th, 14th, and [-]th Infantry Corps, and then took the train to Jharkhan, India Ranchi, the capital of Germany, and then joined forces with the [-]th and [-]th Indian Army there, and then went east to West Bengal to fight a decisive battle with the South Asian Army of the Communist International!

On the South Road, the Rajasthan Local Army, the Gujarat Local Army, the Madhya Pradesh Local Army, the Maharashtra State Army, the Jharkhand Local Army, the Chhattisgarh Local Army, etc. Local troops from the central and western states of India cooperated with the 12th and 13th Army of the Indian Central Army to aggressively invade the Indian Communist Party bases in Odisha, eastern Chhattisgarh, and southern Jharkhand.In order to threaten the retreat of the South Asian Army of the Communist International, forcing it to withdraw its main force from outside Calcutta.

On the north route, the 2nd Army, 3rd Army, and 4th Army of the Indian Central Army and the [-]rd Indian Armored Division from New Delhi were drawn from the Indo River defense line in the northwest battlefield of India as the main force, and then cooperated with Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. local troops.First, through the well-developed railway and road traffic in northern India, they were mobilized to Patna, the capital of Bihar state in northern India, and then proceeded along the Ganges waterway, approaching Calcutta from the north, and waited for an opportunity to rescue the besieged Mahatma Gandhi.

In this sweltering Indian summer.Received the main force of the Indian army that must arrive at the designated location before August 8th.They run wildly towards their respective goals.There are 15 divisions of 66 central armies and eight local armies, nearly 110 million troops, and millions of peasants driving horse-drawn carts and mule carts to transport supplies for the army!All of India seemed to be united because of Gandhi.In the logistics base of the army, Patna, the capital of Bihar.The large amount of materials transported by railways and waterways are transported forward by these proletarians from the bottom of Indian society using carriages, mule carts and other means of transportation to ensure the logistics supply of more than 100 million troops... The army and military supplies of the government of New Delhi, India Now that they have all gathered together, they are waiting for the South Asian Army of the Communist International to wipe them out!

"Vice-Chairman Mao, the Northern Marching Corps reported that the armored units of the Indian puppet army appeared west of Jamshedpur. Comrade Su Yu's 1st Army reconnaissance unit had already fought with their armored power search battalion. The battle lasted for two days For a few hours, the opponent has a lot of armored vehicles, and their combat effectiveness is very strong... Our scouts are no match. Now the Northward Army is asking for instructions, whether to transfer the Comintern Armored Division, the 1st Army, and the Artillery Group as the reserve team Used for the Jamshedpur-Danbad line of defense, to launch the main decisive battle with the Indian puppet army?"

Ye Ting stood in front of Mao Zedong with a serious look on his face.The situation of the battle seems to be a bit unexpected. The Indian army is indeed desperate to break the siege of Calcutta.However, they did not play refueling tactics, but first assembled a heavy army group west of Jamshedpur-Danbad, and then launched an attack!There are as many as 7 Indian Central Infantry Corps among the Indian Army numbers that have been identified so far, and an Indian armored force has just been discovered!After a rough calculation, the strength of the Indian army on this line has reached 37 to 8!The South Asian Army of the Communist International only assembled three infantry armies on the Jamshedpur-Danbad line of defense, with a total strength of only about 3.Therefore, in order to fight a decisive battle, more troops must be concentrated.But at the same time, the revolutionary base in Orissa (the base in Chhattisgarh has been abandoned, and the base in Jharkhand belongs to the main battlefield of the "Battle of Calcutta") and along the Ganges on the northern line of Calcutta. Traces of concentration of Indian troops.Obviously, using Gandhi as bait this time, there are a bit too many Indian puppet troops attracted!

Mao Zedong put down the documents in his hand, got up and walked to the front of the map, "How is the deployment of the Jamshedpur-Danbad defense line?" Ye Ting shook his head slightly, and replied: "The time is too short, from the end of July to the present, only In ten days, it is impossible to build a 7-kilometer defense line into an impenetrable solid state. Moreover, the terrain in that area is mainly plains, which is difficult for attack and defense."

Mao Zedong lit a cigarette and smoked it. A decisive battle with the main force of the Indian army on the Jamshedpur-Danbad line seemed inevitable.And this battle is obviously the key to the success or failure of the Indian revolution!If the main force of the Indian army can be defeated in the Jamshedpur-Danbad battle, then the victory of the Indian revolution will be just around the corner.In addition, the 8th Congress of the Communist International, which will soon be held in Beiping, also needs a victory to inspire people's hearts...Revolutionaries from all over the world must see that a unified "Communist International Army" is supporting the revolutions of all countries Great role in!

"Fight! Fight the decisive battle with the Indian puppet army in Jamshedpur-Danbad! We must fight hard! Fight a red South Asian subcontinent!" Mao Zedong obviously made up his mind, and he said to Ye Ting: "Here Comrades Xiang Ying, Peng Dehuai, Liu Bocheng, and Chen Yi sent power, ordering them to concentrate their main force to start a decisive battle with the enemy in the middle, and must destroy the main force of the Indian puppet army on the road! Create favorable conditions for the liberation of the entire South Asian subcontinent!"

"Vice-Chairman Mao, Commander-in-Chief Ye's instructions have arrived!" A shout suddenly made the atmosphere of the former enemy headquarters in Kharagpur tense.Xiang Ying went to inspect the 1st Army in Jamshedpur at this time.Chen Yi was sent to the outskirts of Calcutta to command the two newly formed infantry corps, the 7th Army and the 8th Army, to besiege the city.Only Peng Dehuai and Liu Bocheng are sitting in this former enemy headquarters.The two of them had been up for several nights in a row, and they both had tired looks on their faces.But at this moment, he regained his energy all of a sudden, and there was still a little tired look on his face.Liu Bocheng strode up to the communication staff officer who sent the news, took a glance at the telegram, and sighed lightly: "Vice Chairman Mao, Commander Ye instructed us to go to Jamshedpur-Danbad Start a decisive battle with the main force of the Indian puppet army on the front line! Concentrate the main force to defeat the enemy in the Ministry first, and then turn to use troops to defeat the enemy in the north. This will lay down favorable conditions for the overall victory of the South Asian revolution."

After speaking, he handed the telegram to Peng Dehuai, walked to the front of the map, stared deeply at the Jamshedpur-Danbad line of defense and thought for a moment.Suddenly he said, "Boss Peng, should we let the 5th and 7th armies step up their attack on Calcutta?"

彭德怀想了想，笑道：“好办法！现在印军北线还没有到位，南线一时也突破不了奥里萨邦的第6军和第8军的防御……如果加尔各答一旦告急，印军的中路军可就只能仓储上阵进攻咱们的贾姆谢德布尔——丹巴德防线了。靠4个步兵军、1个装甲师和1个炮兵集群不到19万人的兵力，依托防线应该是足以打败印军的7个步兵军和1个装甲军的。这一战我们是胜券在握了！”
