Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

"Alright, who wants your life? If we fail and get discovered, just take our people and evacuate. Don't leave any of those Soviet experts or prisoners alive, and don't let the news leak out!"

Zhang Dabiao scratched his head, looked at Li Yunlong in surprise and said, "Captain, didn't you say that this concerns the backbone of our nation?"

"It concerns the backbone of our nation!"

"Shouldn't we try our best to complete the mission?"

Li Yunlong rolled his eyes at Zhang Dabiao. "What's the point of having all the dead? This isn't a war, this is scientific research. As long as we have researchers, we'll figure it out. Remember, while we have to keep a close eye on these staff, we absolutely can't mistreat them. We'll try our best to satisfy their every need."

"If you can't figure it out, come to me and I'll find a way!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Dabiao nodded, not quite understanding, but still scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Captain, you said research, research, what exactly are you researching?"

"Study Miss Qiu!"

"Ms. Qiu? Studying a woman?"

Li Yunlong kicked Zhang Dabiao and said, "If you keep talking, I'll put you through the mill too. How's the training of your advance team going?"

Back to business, Zhang Dabiao immediately regained his seriousness: "All soldiers above the platoon level can independently command an ambush, and most comrades can lead troops in combat alone!"

"Very good. You take three hundred of these people with you, and I'll leave the rest. You must explain clearly to those who go with you that this trip may take several years!"

"Ah, how many years can we not fight the Japanese?"

"Then I'll change someone else?"

Zhang Dabiao immediately waved his hand: "No, Captain, just choose me, don't change anyone. The more people who know, the greater the risk of leakage. I want to see what our backbone is like!"

Chapter 452 The lion opens its mouth

Ulaanbaatar.

This is the largest city in Outer Mongolia. After Outer Mongolia declared "independence", it became the "capital" of Outer Mongolia.

However, apart from a few countries like Russia, not many countries in the world recognize Outer Mongolia's "identity".

At this time, Shancheng did not recognize Outer Mongolia's "independence" until it signed a neutrality treaty with the Soviet Union in 1946. However, after 1953, it stood up to oppose its "independence".

The reason why the Russians wanted to annex Outer Mongolia was to ensure the safety of the Trans-Siberian Railway. As is the case now, once the Trans-Siberian Railway is cut off, the supply of troops in the entire East Siberia and Far East regions will be a problem.

Outer Mongolia is now under the rule of Choibalsan, and Choibalsan is a complete traitor to Mongolia. It would be more appropriate to describe him as a comprador of the Russian bear.

He relied on the Russians to rise to power step by step. Once he became the leader of Outer Mongolia, he completely turned to the Russians and, imitating the Russians' benevolent father, began to carry out a large-scale internal purge. A region with a population of just over 800,000 was reduced to just over 600,000 after his purge. Then, he imitated his benevolent father and promoted a personality cult.

In addition, he abolished the Mongolian script of Phags-pa and began to use the Russian Slavic script as the new script. He destroyed all the Chinese classical literature and Sino-Tibetan scripts popular in the entire Outer Mongolia region, and strictly prohibited anyone from speaking Chinese or writing Chinese characters.

In fact, the so-called "spiritual hometown" of a certain great director had already become dead in name only at this time, but the director was still complacent, not knowing that his "roots" had long been dug out, and he was still complacent.

In addition, he also sold all kinds of resources in Outer Mongolia to the Russians. As long as the Russians wanted, he would give them everything. During the Battle of Moscow, this "filial son and grandson" sent two elite main cavalry regiments and 70,000 auxiliary troops to participate in the battle.

He sent 80,000 troops to a region with a population of only 600,000 to 700,000 at the time, and almost all the young and strong labor force in Outer Mongolia was sent to please the Russian bear.

As for why he was not afraid of unrest in Outer Mongolia, it was because the 17th Army of the Russians was stationed in Outer Mongolia, and Gastilovich and others lived like emperors in Outer Mongolia. Wang Tianhai praised them as experts when he saw them.

At this time, people in Ulaanbaatar were in panic, and Choibalsan's office was in even greater chaos.

"Where are our troops? Where are our troops?"

"Report, our troops have all run away!"

At this time, outside Ulaanbaatar, Lao Han led the "Ninth Agula" to the city. Upon seeing the large army, the defending troops simply dropped their weapons and fled. There was no soldier left on the low gate tower.

The troops then marched into the city in a swagger.

"Mr. Han, we have taken Ulaanbaatar. What is the next plan?"

Agula followed Old Han and whispered. This Agula wasn't a descendant of the Eighth Bogdogen, but rather a soldier of the Eighth Route Army. Originally from Outer Mongolia, his family had fled to the Chahar region after Choibalsan's purge, and he later joined the Eighth Route Army. Agula was his given name, and his identity was fabricated by Li Yunlong.

When Li Yunlong was looking for someone to support, he originally wanted to find a local person to support. Later, after discovering this soldier, he simply supported his own people.

"First, capture Choibalsan and make him sign a declaration renouncing Outer Mongolia's 'independence'."

Old Han clearly remembered the tasks assigned to him by Li Yunlong, the most important of which was to get Choibalsan to declare the abandonment of Outer Mongolia's "independence."

"The Japanese have also contacted me and expressed their willingness to support us with weapons and equipment!"

"How much stuff are the Japs going to give us?"

Agula produced a list: "30,000 rifles, 5 million rounds of ammunition, 300 light and heavy machine guns, and 100 tons of food."

"But these things are not given for free. The Japanese demand that we cooperate with them to attack the Russians and declare our joining the puppet Manchukuo."

After taking a look at the list, Old Han couldn't help but snort coldly: "The Japs are really stingy. They want to get rid of us with such a small amount of supplies? No way!"

Then Lao Han thought for a moment and said, "I have to ask the commander. The commander knows the Japanese well and should know what their psychological price is."

Agula nodded and said, "Then I'll have someone send a telegram to the commander right now."

"Go ahead. Once you enter the city, you'll be the Ninth Generation of Outer Mongolia. Don't let anyone see your flaws!"

"it is good!"

Soon, the troops completely occupied Ulaanbaatar. At that time, Ulaanbaatar was just a small city with only about 60,000 people, and more than half of these 60,000 people were herders. They had no houses and lived in tents.

The so-called Ulaanbaatar is just a city surrounded by walls. There is a large open space inside with many tents built on the open space. People live here on weekdays.

In addition, there are a large number of livestock such as cattle, sheep, horses, etc.

Only when you reach the center of Ulaanbaatar can you see some buildings. These buildings were built with the help of the Russians and are also where Choibalsan and his confidants live.

Originally, Choibalsan was planning to escape to the Russian side, but not long after he left the house, he was caught and was tied up and thrown at the door.

Choibalsan was not a tough guy. After using some simple tricks, he agreed to all of Lao Han's requests.

The next day, Ulaanbaatar announced through plain text telegrams to all Outer Mongolian regions, Eastern and Western Siberia, Central Siberia, and China that Outer Mongolia had canceled its "independence" and Choibalsan had stepped down.

Agula became the head of the Outer Mongolian region's autonomy. After the news spread, Shancheng responded immediately and recognized Agula's identity.

For Shancheng, it didn't matter who Agula was. After all, Outer Mongolia's legitimate announcement to cancel its "independence" was a major good thing for Shancheng. The newspapers of the day were all touting this as a major victory.

At this time, Li Yunlong discussed with a group of people for a long time and then sent a telegram to Agula.

"We need more munitions, at least 100,000 rifles, 20 million rounds of ammunition, tanks, planes, and ammunition production lines, and 10,000 tons of food. And if the Japanese want Outer Mongolia to join Manchuria, they need to provide some industrial equipment, such as steelmaking equipment and some machining equipment!"

"Tell the Japanese that as long as their supplies and equipment are in place, your troops can march north to attack Kyakhta, Ulan-Ude and other areas at any time to cut off the Russians' retreat!"

After reading Li Yunlong's reply, Lao Han and Agula looked at each other.

They had originally had a price in mind ready to bargain with the Japanese, but after seeing Li Yunlong's request, both of them felt that they were too conservative.

Can the Japanese really provide so much aid?

Chapter 453: Zhang Zhanshen's Mission

If it were before the Kwantung Army attacked the Far East, the Japanese would definitely not have spent so much money to aid Agula.

However, the Japanese captured 150,000 troops from the Russians in the Far East and obtained a large amount of weapons and equipment, including 100,000 rifles and 20 million rounds of ammunition, as well as other equipment. For the Japanese today, these equipment and supplies are not much.

Moreover, Li Yunlong knew that the Japanese would definitely not be able to refuse, and now the Japanese had no choice at all.

The casualties of the frontal attack on Chita were too great. The Japanese were not the Russians who could withstand the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops and then mobilize millions of troops.

The Kwantung Army only had so many elite troops, and they had already lost tens of thousands of them in the Far East. If they attacked Chita by force, they would lose another 200,000 to 300,000. The Kwantung Army could not afford such a heavy loss, so they could only grit their teeth and agree to Agula's request.

From the Japanese perspective, as long as they could capture Chita and occupy Lake Baikal and other areas, Outer Mongolia would be theirs. The Kwantung Army could march south to capture Outer Mongolia at any time. At that time, they could annex Outer Mongolia or support Agula as they did Manchuria, provided that Agula obeyed their will.

After the Japanese agreed to Agula's request, the Kwantung Army took quick action. Although Li Yunlong's troops occupied areas such as Arshan, they did not cut off the passage between the Japanese Kwantung Army and Outer Mongolia.

At the same time, when the Japanese came into contact with Lao Han's troops, a plane flying from Moscow landed in Kurkusk, and then dozens of Russian personnel quickly drove south.

The other plane took off from Kurkusk and headed straight for Harar Airport. On the plane, Belia looked at the documents in her hand with a very grim expression.

The problems in Siberia this time caused Big Beard to reprimand Beria. After all, he was one of the main people responsible during the Great Purge.

The bearded man blamed Belia for being soft-hearted during the Great Purge and letting so many people go who shouldn't have been let go.

If Belia had dealt with all these people at the beginning, there would be no rebels in the Far East, and without the rebels, the Far East would not have been lost.

Leaving the problems of the Far East and Siberia to Belia is actually letting him clean up his own mess.

In Hyrule Fortress.

Zhang Yingcai stood in front of Li Yunlong, feeling a little reserved.

"Yingcai, how was your rest?"

"Report to the commander, I've had a good rest!"

After Zhang Yingcai brought Ishii Shiro back from Qiqihar, he took over Yu Zhiqian's special operations battalion, which had been expanded into a special operations regiment.

The original special operations battalion was expanded by another 1,000 men, divided into three battalions. After two months of training, the two newly formed battalions were already combat-ready, but there was still a gap compared to the old battalion.

Zhang Yingcai is now the battalion commander of the 1st Special Operations Battalion.

In two months, Zhang Yingcai became familiar with and understood special operations.

Zhang Yingcai learned very quickly. Originally, he had no theoretical support and could achieve remarkable success just by judging the battlefield situation with his own feelings. Now, after learning theoretical knowledge, he felt like he had suddenly seen something.

"I have a task for you. Do you have the confidence to complete it?"

Li Yunlong continued to look at Zhang Yingcai with a smile, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him. He looked at Zhang Yingcai, then at the monks around him, Yu Zhigan, and Duan Peng, and thought to himself: Why is the gap between me and the brigade commander so big?

The brigade commander can train a god of war like Zhang Yingcai, so why can he only train a peanut thief like the monk?

"Please rest assured, Commander, we will ensure the completion of the mission!"

"Very good, I believe in your ability."

Li Yunlong took out a document from the drawer and handed it over: "You destroyed the Japanese 516th Unit in Qiqihar before. This time, I hope you can take the Special Operations Battalion 1 to the vicinity of Heilongjiang and destroy the 731st Unit!"

After saying that, Li Yunlong took out all the information he had collected during this period.

"Unit 731 is currently in the Pingfang area of ​​Harbin. The specific situation inside is currently unclear. The Japanese have stationed approximately two battalions of troops within Unit 731."
