    You can search for "Anti-Japanese War on the Yellow Sand" in Baidu to find the latest chapters!

    At that time, the Axis Powers and the Allies launched the Battle of Verdun and the Battle of the Somme in the border area between France and Germany. Both sides built trenches and barbed wire to form a defense line.

    Then machine gun fire and combat anti-aircraft artillery formed cross fire, blocking the advancement of enemy infantry and tanks.

    After the first day of fighting, the Japanese army organized several death squads and launched several sneak attacks on a front line of dozens of kilometers.

    In doing so, they did achieve some success and regained some of the positions occupied by the Soviets.

    But when daybreak came, the Soviet tanks and armored vehicles formed a swarm charge and drove them from their positions.

    Marshal Zhukov frowned and looked at the battle lines of both sides on the map.

    Because they were caught in a tug-of-war on the frontal battlefield, they had begun to dispatch troops to compete for some surrounding areas.

    But there was no way to make fundamental progress in the war situation. This had to be said to be a blow to Zhukov, who was full of confidence at the beginning of the war situation.

    "Good news, dear Comrade Zhukov, I think you will be very happy to hear this news." Stavsky's voice reached Zhukov's ears.

    When Zhukov saw the old general, he forced out a smile and said, "What's the matter? Come and listen."

    Stavsky said: "A Japanese tank brigade was completely wiped out by the troops led by Xia Yang in the Nomenkan area. I don't know if this is good news."

    Zhukov had heard the news about the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression of Xia Yang.  What he was thinking at the time was that Xia Yang's troops would continue to operate in the Hailar area, contain the Japanese troops, and at the same time attack the Japanese transportation lines, making their logistical supplies unsustainable.

    This is what General Zhukov expects from Xia Yang, because in his understanding of war, if he does not have military strength, equipment, and logistical advantages, he cannot fight the enemy.  Because that means failure.

    In fact, this was also the idea shared by most Allied generals during World War II.

    For example, although the British General Montgomery was said to have defeated Rommel in North Africa, Montgomery at that time had several times as many troops and tanks as Rommel, as well as absolute logistical support.

    On the other hand, Rommel couldn¡¯t even add gasoline to his tanks, so what¡¯s the point?

    There is also Patton, the same is true. He will form an absolute advantage in troops and equipment, and then fight you.

    Therefore, on the European battlefield of World War II, the generals of both sides often focused either on strategies or tactics, or on comprehensive national strength.

    I produce more than 50 aircraft carriers and tens of thousands of fighter jets and tanks a year. Why do you want to fight me?

    Of course, this does not mean that strategies and tactics have no effect when there is a huge gap in comprehensive national strength.  This does not mean that troops with inferior equipment, strength, and logistical support have no chance of winning.

    In the history of modern warfare, there is an army that won a war when it was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, equipment, and logistical support.

    This army is called the "Chinese People's Volunteers" and their opponent is the United Nations Army headed by the United States!

    It is precisely because of this that Zhukov was very surprised when he heard the news.

    Because in his opinion, Xia Yang was basically at a disadvantage compared to the Japanese army in all aspects.  The Japanese troops who surrounded and suppressed him were all elite troops.

    But today he heard that Xia Yang actually annihilated a Japanese tank brigade without paying a high price.

    "How did he do it?" Zhukov asked strangely.

    Stavsky smiled, and then lured Xia Yang deep into the enemy. At the same time, he quickly formed an absolute advantage in strength and firepower in local areas. Before the Japanese support troops arrived, he annihilated a Japanese tank brigade.  Told it to General Zhukov.

    General Zhukov couldn¡¯t help but sigh secretly after hearing this.  They cannot learn these tactics in military academies.

    "He is very capable. There are also very good generals in the Chinese army!" Zhukov praised, "It seems that the support we gave them was not in vain. Tell Xia Yang to let them loose their hands and feet behind the Japanese army.  With this, our army has now gradually gained control of the air, and transport aircraft can deliver enough weapons, ammunition, and even other supplies to them.

    As long as they can disrupt the rear of the Japanese army, we can defeat them on the frontal battlefield.Gain and build greater advantages.  "

    At this time, their railways were constantly transporting weapons and equipment, which were piled in warehouses. They were also stacked in warehouses.  It's better to take it out and hand it into Xia Yang's hands.

    After all, although the number of Xia Yang's troops is limited, the role they can play is really great.

    "By the way, our armored forces have already entered the predetermined position. We can directly launch the most violent attack tomorrow." Stavsky reminded Zhukov.

    Zhukov nodded and said: "Okay, dispatch an armored division to resist the Japanese Fifth Division's attack on the flanks, and ask them to try not to interfere with our frontal attack.

    The other troops are all concentrated on the front. This time, we can no longer let the Japanese army block the charge.  "

    The powerful equipment advantage gave Zhukov greater confidence.

    He knew that the Japanese army at this time was no longer as strong as the previous attack due to logistical supply problems.

    At the same time, the acquisition of air superiority is also good news for Zhukov.  Because in this way, their fighter jets and bombers can bomb the Japanese transport troops unscrupulously, making even eating a big problem for these Japanese troops fighting on the frontal battlefield.

    At this time, Stavsky said: "Then we will launch an attack directly tomorrow?"

    Zhukov nodded and said: "They have just arrived here and their morale is at a high time. It would be a good choice to launch an attack tomorrow." (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
