The outbreak of the Soviet-Finn War was more than a month later than later generations, and the initial forces were invested less. So even if a famous general was in charge, he still knocked out a bag on the Mannaheim defense line. Facing the Finnish guerrillas and snipers wearing white bed sheets and snowboards, the Soviet army was exhausted to deal with it. However, compared with the inability to respond in history, Zhukov quickly made adjustments. With Stalin's approval, he first transferred 12 divisions from the Moscow Military Region, and then from Lujin's Haha respectively.

The Sakh Front and his Siberian Front drew 30,000 veterans who had participated in the Central Asian Battle, and intercepted 400 T34 tanks that should have been transferred to the Eastern Front. In the end, about 70 Tu2 bombers were invested, and the armored breakthrough tactics used by the National Defense Force in the Central Asian Battle were adopted. In order to prevent the fuel from freezing after the fire was turned off, he also transported a large amount of diesel and allowed the armored troops to rotate and rest, so that some troops could always be kept in a state of being ready to set off.

Thirty thousand veterans saved the battlefield, and after joining, they immediately changed the situation of being passively beaten. Zhukov also seized this opportunity, faced the terrain of lakes and swamps, gave up the original multi-way offensive strategy, concentrated troops and hundreds of heavy artillery, and used the T34 tank as an arrow to attack a point in the Suma defense area. Although the Finnish military and civilians fought to the death, their strength was too weak compared to their neighbors. It took only two weeks for the Soviet artillery cluster to smash the place.

Finland is in a hurry!

The Soviet-Finn War caused an uproar around the world. Stalin's archenemy Yang Qiu immediately expressed his support for Finland and sent three arms ships to Finland. Chinese ambassador to France Zeng Qi made a big splash. He raised funds to recruit soldiers from overseas Chinese in Europe and even formed a 600-man "Chinese Free Army" in just a few days, and then headed to Oslo to join the arms ships to fight in Finland. Britain and France were also unwilling to give in, condemning the support and did a vigorous job, as if there was no threat to the Western Front. Even Mussonili

The announcement of the recall of the ambassador to Moscow. What caused the most uproar among countries around the world is that the United States, which had previously insisted not to be involved in the Eurasian War, was also particularly enthusiastic this time. Roosevelt not only joined hands with Beijing to instigate the League of Nations to kick the Soviet Union away, but also sent five 10,000-ton ships loaded with materials to express his support for the Finnish people to resist the invasion. In order to prevent German submarines from escorting the fleet, the US Navy also dispatched the battleship New York! A large number of American "freedom fighters" also flew across the ocean to London, yelling to help the "brothers" resist the invasion of GCism.

Delivering battleships to test the waters of Europe is undoubtedly a strong signal! It indicates that Roosevelt is becoming less and less optimistic about Europe. This move also allowed Churchill, who had just wiped out the battleship of Earl Spey and had no energy to spread, and he also showed his infinite imagination and stood in the office of the Prime Minister No. 10 Downing Street. He pointed to the Scandinavia and sweared: "Look, the Americans are here, and the Chinese are here. This is a good opportunity. Let's fight Finland! You see, there are many benefits to fighting Finland. It can not only resist the spread of evil GCism, but also seize the Norwegian and Swedish iron ore that supply Germany, and lay a flank position that threatens the Baltic Sea."

Chamberlain and the officers were dizzy. Norway and Sweden seemed to be sovereign states, right?

You can take it if you say you want to take it?

Churchill didn't care about so much. He had long wanted to kill Norway and Sweden and cut off Hitler's iron ore source, but unfortunately those old stubborn people were afraid of wolves and tigers and deaths. Look, how good the opportunity is now! The whole world is on the side of the British Empire, and it will not be condemned by the international community if they fight. Don't say that. He really convinced Chamberlain, and finally asked him to send telegrams to the Norwegian and Swedish governments, saying that our British Empire and the "freedom fighters" from all over the world would cross from you to support Finland. Of course, we would not invade you. We just set up material transit points and airports. British gentlemen smiled extremely enthusiastically, but the Norwegian and Swedish governments really felt awkward. Especially Sweden, they have sent tens of thousands of people to join the Finnish army. Many of them are in-service soldiers.

They were all so explicit, but they didn't expect Churchill to pay attention to him. The clay Buddha was also very angry! By the afternoon, the situation was even worse because Hitler also gave the two countries an ultimatum, not allowing Britain and France to transit, otherwise the war would start! In the end, the two countries had to reply to Downing Street: "Socialism cannot be violated."

"If he can't say it's right, then he won't!" Churchill was angry. Hitler was a big deal! So he threw the reply telegram into the trash can and began to make detailed plans with France to attack the Scandinavia.

After Britain, France, China and the United States rolled up their sleeves and prepared to fight. After posing for a strong attack on the peninsula and rescued Finland, Hitler was shocked. He was about to deal with his old enemy France, and the source of iron ore was threatened, so he picked up the phone and scolded Marshal Boluchichi: "Look, look! This is your winter is not suitable for combat? Finland is now minus 40°, and the Soviets are still fighting the same? Iron ore, I must defend iron ore!"

Bolaoxiche was speechless. Why didn't you see the dead bodies of the Soviet army all over the mountains?

Finally, Hitler hung up the phone and expressed his dissatisfaction, and decided to bypass the General Staff himself. So he asked Ribbintrov to go to Moscow first, warning Stalin to stop when he was about to get it. If Britain, the United States, France and China enter Finland, it would definitely destroy the Soviet-German relationship. Then he found Fokenhorst, who was idle at home, and was determined to let the veterans see him. He who had received the first-class Iron Cross (which Hitler won in World War I) could do better than you old men!

After being reused by the idle Fokenhorst, he was extremely excited and immediately said that he would come up with all the offensive plans within a week. However, when he walked out of the office, he remembered something because he had never thought of attacking only 3 million people and was still close to his Norway, so he searched through the archives of the General Staff but could not find a suitable Norwegian military map.

"Corporal Collier, you can fly to Oslo immediately and buy me a Norwegian travel guide and tourist map!" Fokenhorst made a phone call.

The European continent is in chaos, and the sound of gunfire is also coming to Asia again.

Just when Zhukov recalled 30,000 veterans and vowed to solve Finland before the end of February, Yang Qiu also made adjustments. He first asked Mei Sheng to serve as Chief of Staff of the Central Asian War Theater, exchanged Zhang Xiaojun with Shi Xiaolou to be responsible for the work of the Asian Alliance Army, and removed Li Liejun from his position as the general general of the National Police, and changed his position to the director of the Central Asian Affairs Office during the War, and set up the office in Taraz. Finally, Wang Geng transferred five National Guard Brigades to temporarily be responsible for the daily security work in the Central Asian War Theater.

Based on the experience of using the front line, he ordered the addition of six semi-track armored vehicles. He required the expansion of production to 40,000 vehicles per year, and proposed the task of developing equipment such as heavy flatbed trucks. He also required that the steel production must be increased to 50 million tons by 41 years at the latest, and specific figures were also proposed for the output of key resources such as aluminum, nickel, and copper. Finally, he entered the extremely important support plan for the 100,000 small factory in township inspections, and went to Yunnan, Guangxi to inspect the southwest border.

While Yang Qiu was inspecting the whole country again, Yue Peng and Song Ziqing also decided to transfer Liu Mingzhao's classmates, Dongfang Chen, the chief of staff of the Marine Corps, as the head of the Military Chief of the Southwest War Zone, to be responsible for contacting Stilwell, and cooperate with Qiu Wenbin to handle the war in Southeast Asia. Finally, a group of young officers with good potential were selected to serve as division commanders of various Asian League coalition forces. Among them, Dong Hao, the former 2nd Airborne Division, who became famous for airborne Kabul, was appointed as the commander of the Philippine Division of the Asian League coalition, Lieutenant Colonel Lin Mousheng was appointed as the commander of the Asian League Malay Division, Huang Yumei, the former Guangdong commander of the 101st Division, was appointed as the commander of the Indonesian Division, Huang Fu Ce, the former staff officer of the 5th Army, Park Enxing, the former commander of the Korean battalion, and Fei Wenhua, the former deputy commander of the Asian Liberation Brigade, was appointed as the commander of the Bangladeshi Division, etc.

Shortly after the transfer order was issued, the first batch of US supplies and personnel also arrived at the Abu Dhabi base that had just been opened. This speed made Yang Qiu secretly increase his vigilance! Suddenly, he provided interest-free loans, then provided high-profile support to Finland, quickly fulfilled the agreement and assisted the Philippines. Everyone told him that the chain reaction of the Central Asian War was greater than expected! Roosevelt had adjusted his foreign policy early and even prepared to actively intervene in Eurasia. Of course, it was not possible to intervene with money.

You should know that Japan has been in the Philippines for several months. Filipinos with some facial connections either fled to the United States or were killed or arrested. The appealing Lawwell defected to Japan to proclaim himself the President of the Second Republic of the Philippines. The Chinese Vice President Sergio Osmina of the Quezon era took a large number of gentry to temporarily avoid Hong Kong under the protection of Xiao Jinyun. Without going directly to war, it was difficult to support the remaining fish and shrimps, which was also one of the main reasons why Roosevelt asked Yang Qiu to cooperate.

According to Song Ziqing's prediction, coordinate the support plan. Find the local leaders of the rebel army, assemble the first batch of rebel army, etc., and it will be finally decided until summer. This will give the Republic of China time to deal with each other. So before leaving Beijing, Yang Qiu asked the General Staff to resolve Afghanistan as soon as possible and release Sun Chuanfang's Turkmen Army, so that the consortium of Tashkent could be completed by three months.

Peshawar, India-Much Alliance Alliance Command.

At four o'clock in the morning, a team of trucks coming from Kabul woke the city up in advance. Many residents opened the window and found that the ten-wheeled heavy trucks that could not be seen at first sight were already rumbling from the direction of Kabul. At the front of the convoy were dozens of tanks that they had never seen before. Even behind the trucks, most of them were towed cannons and ammunition and fuel trucks covered with canvas, and the trucks were filled with Chinese soldiers wearing unique cold-proof clothes.

As Japan moved south, Europe was full of war, and the British Empire's rule in India was already shaking. After the Muslim alliance, Congress and Democratic Party formed a three-legged battle, Britain probably knew that it could not stop India's independence, so it simply shrank its strength and tried hard to get benefits. It turned a blind eye to the armed forces of the three major factions, so that such an important border city as Peshawar was abandoned early, but the number of Chinese Defense Forces and merchants came to visit was increasing. The residents of Peshawar gradually became accustomed to frequent exchanges between Chinese merchants and Chinese military vehicles, but they had never seen such a large-scale army directly driving in, which caused a considerable commotion.

Because there were too many trucks arriving, Mohammed Ayub, who was already commander-in-chief of the Indian-Muslio Alliance, led his troops to arrive after hearing the news. Hundreds of trucks had already filled the small city. "How could there be so many?" Ayub was puzzled. The liaison officer said before that he would only come to a brigade, but now it is probably close to a division.

"My old friend, we're meeting again." Just as he was wondering, a half-track armored vehicle in the middle suddenly opened the back door, and Zhang Zhidan, Fei Wenhua and a lieutenant colonel who had never met before came out.

"Thank you, Allah, for sending our best friend." Seeing the two, Ayub opened his arms excitedly and hugged each other hard.

Zhang Zhidan is a famous figure in the Muslim world. Fei Wenhua has also served as the Muslim military instructor for a period of time, so even the Muslim officers behind Ayub came forward to say hello. Seeing the Muslim officers and soldiers all looked excited, Zhang Zhidan was also very happy and pointed to the colonel and introduced: "Lieutenant Colonel Wu Huanxian, this time he was ordered to support you."

16th Brigade? Ayub's eyelids twitched.

He studied at the Jiujiang Army Command School when he was young, so he knew that the National Defense Forces had several very special troops, namely the 16th Plateau Brigade, the 17th Jungle Brigade and the 18th Mountain Brigade. These three troops were Yang Qiuqiuqi's troops, just like the main divisions back then, but they have always existed in the form of an independent brigade. It is said that the three troops are elite troops comparable to the Central Guard Division and several major field ace divisions.

Seeing him stunned, Zhang Zhidan smiled slightly, deliberately looking at the Mumeng officer around him turned to the topic: "My dear Commander Ayub, it seems that your army has grown stronger again."

"Yes, so I want to thank Allah, thank President Yang Qiu and your support." Speaking of his army, Ayub regained his enthusiasm. Finally, he pointed at the convoy. With sharp eyes, he also recognized that the Soviet-made tanks were the ones leading the way. He couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Why are there so many trucks? Are these tanks from the Soviet Union?"

"It's ours now, haha." Zhang Zhidan smiled proudly: "There are 18 t34, 32 t26, and there are 22 BT7 fast tanks behind. All of them have been repaired, the ammunition and oil are complete, and some modifications have been made."

When I heard that there were 72 tanks, Ayub and the Mumeng officers around him were suddenly itchy. You know, the Mumeng has only equipped 16 Chinese-aided 25 tanks and 48 early 12 infantry tanks (Bren style machine gun cars built in the last European war). They are usually reluctant to use them as treasures. After this Central Asia Battle, Ayub also went to Almaty to seek support, but because he needed repairs and sorting, he was unable to bring back several Soviet tanks, which made him feel very regretful. However, he didn't expect to see them here today, and there were three models.

"72 tanks, 44 76mm cannons, 110 82mm mortars, 500 dp light machine guns." Zhang Zhidan knew the thoughts of Ayub and Mumeng officers, smiled and took out the list from his pocket, deliberately increasing his voice and shook the note: "Sir Ayub, it's all yours!"

"It's all mine?" Ayub opened his mouth wide and stuttered in disbelief.

This appearance also made Fei Wenhua and Wu Huanxian laugh. Although the Soviet-made tanks performed well, the National Defense Forces had sufficient advanced technical advantages because Yang Qiu was in stock and the Type 36 main battle tanks had sufficient advanced technology. They did not lack armored power like Germany, so most of the seized tanks were used as favors. Zhang Zhidan continued to laugh and said, "Commander Ayub, this is a special instruction from the President and Chief of Staff Yue to bring to you. If you dislike it, we can take it back and give it to the Iranians."

"Thank you Allah, thank you for your generosity. China will always be our brother!" Ayub no longer doubted, and hugged the three of them excitedly again, even the Mumeng officers around him rushed up and shouted.

"This is a private gift." Zhang Zhidan took out another cold-proof clothing for the plateau brigade and gave it to Ayubu.

The 16th mountain brigade's cold-proof clothing is specially made, and is manufactured according to the standards of N3 cold-proof clothing in later generations. The imported beaver skin alone costs millions. So after listening to the introduction, Ayub immediately put it on his body and deliberately wandered around the Mumeng officers for a few rounds, which made him jealous and happily asked the guards to put them away.
Chapter completed!
