When the Chinese Empire started printing money printing machines to mass-print dragon coins to squeeze hard-earned money from people all over the world, the Soviet-German War also entered the most critical moment.

After the Battle of Kiev, the Soviet Red Army had no more reserve forces. In order to defend Moscow, the Soviet government had to draw large amounts of troops from the Sino-Soviet border on the Western Front and the Soviet-Turkey border on the southern front, but most of the troops were not equipped enough and lacked armored troops and fighter jets.

The German army's "Barbarosa" combat plan was scheduled to occupy Moscow before December to defeat the Soviet Union's final will to resist. However, by early November, the German army still failed to launch a full-line attack on Moscow, resulting in the failure to achieve the predetermined target.

This is mainly because Germany's crude oil supply was in a hurry, the German front line was too long, and the muddy roads in the Soviet Union in autumn and winter seriously affected the marching speed of the German mechanized troops, which greatly increased the difficulty of German logistics supply.

In order to solve the problem of crude oil supply, the German army had to draw the main force to attack the Ukrainian area and advance towards the Caucasus. In the World War I of Kiev, the German army crippled nearly one million Soviet troops, captured nearly 700,000 people, and obtained a large amount of weapons, equipment and ammunition from the Soviet army. But the most important thing was to obtain 4 million tons of oil stored in the Ukrainian war zone, which made the German war machine run at high speed again.

The German army captured more than 4,000 tanks of various types, more than 1,000 aircraft and more than 40,000 artillery of the Soviet army. This batch of military equipment quickly replenished the German combat troops, greatly increasing the degree of mechanization from one-third to two-thirds to mechanized. It became the most mechanized force among the belligerent countries. Of course, it is still incomparable to the Chinese Emperor who fully realized mechanized equipment.

The German army won the Battle of Kiev, which brought an unparalleled improvement to the morale of the German army. Hitler advocated that the German Army was the most powerful army in the world. The entire Allied world cheered for it, and even did not take the Imperial Army seriously.

To this end, the German Command formulated another "Typhoon Operation" combat plan on October 27, 1941. The German army had delayed four weeks of valuable strategic time, so in order to complete the Barbarossa plan, the German army would take Moscow within 10 days. In the last few days of October, the German army assembled troops and prepared for the "Typhoon" offensive.

On November 2, 1941, the Central Army Group commanded by Fedor von Bok finally launched an attack on Moscow, code-named the Typhoon Operation. The German army believed that Moscow was of great political and military strategy. The German army planned to carry out assaults with various tank groups to cut off Soviet defenses, and encircle and annihilate the Western Front, the Reserve Front and the Bryansk Front in the two regions of Viazima and Bryansk, and then surrounded Moscow from the north and south with a powerful rapid cluster. While the infantry corps carried out a frontal attack, they captured the Soviet capital.

To achieve this goal, the basic strength of the German army was concentrated in the area of ​​the "Central" Army Group (the commander is Marshal Bock) east of Smolensk. The "Central" Army Group was in charge of the 9th (the commander is General Strauss), the 4th (the commander is Marshal Kruger), the 2nd Army Group (the commander is General Weix), the 3rd tank (the commander is General Hot), the 4th (the commander is General Hopner), and the 2nd Cluster (the commander is General Guderian), with a total of 74 and a half divisions, with a total of about 1.8 million people, 6,700 tanks, more than 44,000 artillery and mortars, and 2,390 aircraft.

This time, the German army not only had an advantage in quantity, but also gained an advantage in weapon quality by seizing a large number of advanced tanks, aircraft and cannons from the Soviet army. On the other hand, the Soviet army lost three-quarters of its mechanized army and equipment. With the strength of the two sides increasing and declining, the Soviet army fell into an unprecedented weak state. Of course, this does not include the newly built army with China-equipped equipment in the rear of the Soviet army.

After Zhukov's persuasion, Stalin finally agreed to continue to allow the Sino-Archive Army in the rear to continue to carry out adaptive training. He believed that with his existing troops, he could defend Moscow. For the final plan of a large-scale counterattack, Stalin chose to endure temporarily.

The Soviet troops participating in the Battle of Moscow were: Western Front, Reserve Front, Bryansk Front, Kalinin Front and Southwest Front Right Wing. As of the end of October, the Western Front (the commander was General Konev) under the jurisdiction of the 22nd Army (the commander was Major General Vostrukov), the 29th Army (the commander was Lieutenant General Maslinnikov), the 30th Army (the commander was Major General Khomenko), the 19th Army (the commander was Lieutenant General Lukin), the 16th Army (the commander was Lieutenant General Rokosovsky), and the 20th Army (the commander was Lieutenant General Yershakov). The front organized defense in Ostashkov and more than 300 kilometers northwest of Yellinia. The reserve Front (the commander was Soviet Union

Marshal Budoni) set up defenses in front of the 100-kilometer area of ​​Roslavli with the 24th (the commander is Major General Rakutin), the 43rd Army (the commander is Major General Sobin Nikov) and the other 31st (the commander is Major General Dormatov), ​​the 49th (the commander is Lieutenant General Zaharkin), the 32nd (the commander is Major General Vishnevsky), and the 33rd Army (the commander is Brigade Commander Onupriyanko) are in the rear of the Western Front. The Bryansk Front (the commander is General Yelemenko) is in charge of the 50th (the commander is Major General Petrov), the third (the commander is Major General Kreisel), the 13th Army and an army-level cluster, guarding the west and more than 300 kilometers south of Bryansk.

The three fronts of the Soviet army had a total of more than 1.25 million men, 990 tanks, 7,600 artillery and mortars, and 677 aircraft. Compared with the German army, the Soviet army was at an absolute disadvantage.

According to the "Typhoon" plan, the German second armored cluster began attacks in the direction of Bryansk on October 30, and the third and fourth armored clusters began to attack one after another in the direction of Viazima on November 2. Although the Soviet army carried out tenacious resistance, the German firepower was too strong, which quickly allowed the German army to break through the defense. The German second army broke through the defense line of the Soviet 50th Army and captured Bryansk.

On November 3, Orel fell. The German army advanced along the Orel-Turah road. The direction of Viazima west of Moscow. The Western Front and the Reserve Front fought a arduous defensive battle. The German army arrived at the Viazima area on the 7th. Most of the troops of the two fronts were encircled here and continued to resist tenaciously until the 12th to 13th.

On the 13th, most of the Soviet Bryansk Group were annihilated. One of the besieged troops later broke through the encirclement, and some stayed behind enemy lines to carry out guerrilla struggles. The Bryansk Front Army also retreated after being trapped in the dilemma of the battle of battle. On the 23rd, most of the Soviet Bryansk Group were annihilated. The German army captured more than 670,000 Soviet troops again in the Viazima-Bryansk Battle, and the German army achieved unprecedented results. It shocked the world again.

The Mozaisk defense line thus became the main resistance area near the ground in Moscow. The four Soviet armies had a total of about 90,000 people. These troops were not enough to establish a solid defense throughout the area. In order to improve military command, the Western Front and the Reserve Front were combined into the Western Front on November 10, and General Zhukov was appointed as the commander.

After Zhukov was appointed, Stalin resisted the opposition and converted the elite troops of the nine armored brigades of the All-China Armed Army, which were deployed on the Sino-Soviet border for training, and the 25 unorganized mechanized divisions, back to the infantry divisions, and successively transferred the west to the suburbs of Moscow, quickly rebuilt four armies, and mobilized Moscow citizens within three days. He organized 25 workers' battalions, 120,000 militia divisions, and 169 street fighting teams, and mobilized 450,000 people to build three fortifications around Moscow City, of which the number of women accounted for three quarters.

By the end of November, women and children alone built 72,000 kilometers of anti-tank trenches and dug more than 3 million cubic meters of soil. The city of Moscow, which was in a defensive state, was tightly blocked by barricades, Luzhai and fortifications. As a result, food was severely short of food.

From mid-November to early December, in many fierce battles in the Mozaisque defense area, the Soviet army stubbornly resisted the German superior forces and stopped them in the Rama River, Ruzha River, Nara River and other areas.

On November 14, the German army broke into the Kalinin area. There were rumors that Moscow was about to fall. Some factories blew up machinery and equipment, and some workers fled Moscow.

Although the German army destroyed a large number of Soviet troops in the Battle of Viazma-Bryansk, as the weather became colder, autumn rain and sleet turned the road into mud, almost paralyzing the German attack. The German army was therefore forced to stop advancing across the board, waiting for the earth to freeze.

The temporary suspension of the German army won the Soviet army valuable breathing time. By the end of November, the Supreme Command of the Soviet Army began to withdraw some troops as reserves to give them necessary rest, and new reserves were also arriving continuously.

In November, the German army carried out 31 air strikes on Moscow, with a total of 2,000 aircraft participating, of which 278 were shot down and only 72 broke into the air above Moscow. The Soviet air defense forces gave the Luftwaffe a head-on blow to the Luftwaffe with advanced anti-aircraft guns and radio near-bomb shells imported from the Chinese Empire.

In early December, the Soviet army in Moscow received another 100,000 people. These Soviet army were very different from the previous Soviet army. They ranged from the helmets on their heads to the military boots under their feet, from plug-in equipment to underwear, all of which were standard equipment of the Imperial Army. Except for the Dragon Totem Army logo of the Emperor of China, there were everything else.

This batch of Soviet troops equipped with Chinese style aroused unanimous envy of other Moscow Red Army soldiers, and the women in Moscow even flattered them in groups. Some even thought that the Chinese Emperor had arrived at the forefront, shouting slogans to find a Chinese man to marry into China, and caused a series of commotion.

A large number of Chinese-armed equipment entered Moscow. Among the heavy weapons, there were more than 1,000 m28a3 main battle tanks, more than 300 z29 anti-tank combat vehicles, and more than 6,000 artillery types, which greatly improved the Soviet army's defense capabilities.

In order to enhance the morale of the people and the army, Stalin ordered a large military parade to commemorate the November Revolution on December 7 on Red Square. The Sino-Article Army was the main target of the parade to cheer up the Soviet people. The reviewing team reviewed in front of the Kremlin and then went directly to the front line. The Soviet army strengthened the strength of the Western Front with a large number of reserves and supplementary troops, and at the same time abolished the Bryansk Front. The front troops were ordered to detain the occupied areas and prevent the German army from detouring from the northwest and southwest Moscow on December 13.

The cold winter of the United Nations came. As the land was frozen, the German Army Chief of Staff Hader convened a meeting of chiefs of staff at the headquarters of the Central Army Group and issued the "Winter Offensive Order of 1941". The Central Army Group concentrated a total of 51 divisions for this. The 4th Army of Kruger was in charge of the frontal attack mission, with the 3rd Armored Corps of Hot and the 4th Armored Corps of Hepna on the left, which was to surround Moscow from the north and the west respectively; the 2nd Armored Corps of Guderian on the right surrounded Moscow from the south.

On November 14, Stalin and Shaposhnikov issued an order to make the CIA army conduct an order to counterattack. Zhukov did not agree with this, but Stalin was eager to boost the morale of the Soviet military and civilians, and once again ignored Zhukov's opposition.

The counter-assault was carried out by Rokosovsky's 16th Army and Zaharkin's 49th Army. The counter-assault targets were the German northern and southern wings in the Volokolamsk region and the lower Nara River.

The combat effectiveness of these two armies equipped with advanced medium-armed weapons has been greatly improved. After the m28a3 main battle tank encountered the German tank No. 3 and 4, and the T34 captured from the Soviet army, it almost killed these tanks one-sidedly, and the German 17th Armored Division was immediately severely damaged.

Although the Soviet army won local battles, there were too few Chinese-armed weapons after all, and the Soviet army was not very adaptable to Chinese-armed equipment. In addition to the Soviet army's dominant idea of ​​strategic defense, this move not only restrained some of Kruger's troops, but had little impact on the main force of the German army. The German army knew very well that in order to protect the flank of Moscow, the Soviet army did not dare to attack rashly. Therefore, it avoided fighting head-on with it, but instead deviated to other directions to continue attacking.

From December 15 to 18, after adjustment and supplementation, the German army launched a new attack on Moscow. The German army carried out major assault attempts in Kalinin, along the direction of Klin, Rogachevo and Tula respectively, respectively, detoured Moscow from the north and south.

On December 17, the Supreme Soviet Command, led by Stalin, issued Order No. 0428, which was intended to destroy and burn all residential areas on the frontier and start the scorched earth war.

At the end of December, the German army paid a huge price to go forward to the Moscow Canal and captured Kalinin. The battle near Moscow became more and more intense. The Soviet army sent countless recruits and volunteers, and even women's battalions were thrown into the German machine gun fire.

After tenacious resistance from the end of December to the beginning of the following year and multiple anti-assault battles, the Soviet army successfully stopped the German army from occupying Moscow. Although the Soviet army was often in a critical state, it finally relied on its financial and material resources. After paying a huge price of casualties, it finally persevered and consumed the German army.

From December 16 to January 5 of the following year, the German army killed and injured more than 150,000 people near Moscow, losing about 2,800 tanks, 2,300 artillery pieces, and nearly 1,500 aircraft. Most of the German tanks were destroyed by the Chinese-made m28a3 tanks and z29 anti-tank tanks and a large number of anti-tank sniper rifles and anti-tank rockets equipped by the Soviet army. The lost aircraft were basically shot down by J-10 fighters and powerful air defense artillery on the ground. Only the German artillery positions were successfully counterattacked with flesh and blood and tenacious spirit.

In addition, the winter from the end of 1941 to 1942 was extremely cold even by the Russian standards. The German army was too long and had insufficient supply, and consumed too much in the battle. There was neither a defensive position nor a combat reserve, nor a preparation for combat under winter conditions. In early November, winter began. Although roads could be used, the German army was insufficient in winter equipment, because it was believed that the war could be ended before winter. Inadequate warm clothes and white camouflage clothing, the engines and fuel tanks of tanks and other vehicles could not be started due to low temperatures, which caused serious setbacks in the morale of the German army. On the contrary, the morale of the Soviet army gradually increased.

For the Soviet army in Moscow, the situation was exactly the opposite. The Soviet army from the Arctic had long been accustomed to cold zone life and had enough winter combat equipment. Their guns were covered with warm covers, coated with anti-freezing lubricants, and had enough cotton coats, leather boots and ear-protecting winter hats to prevent cold. The 8.5 million pairs of military boots and 10,500 tons of boot-making leather from the Chinese Empire urgently exported to the Soviet Union. Both ensured that the Soviet army could fight in cold conditions. Of course, the Soviet tanks were also unable to start because of the cold, so the two sides began to give up their armored forces and engage in the most primitive battle.

The German army not only encountered a nail in the direction of Moscow. The 25th German Armored Army, which was advancing from Kiev to the Caucasus, defeated six Soviet armored armies in the early stages, destroyed more than 1,300 Soviet tanks, and approached the Transcaucasus oil zone. At the same time, the German army formed a Transcaucasus assault cluster and prepared to directly capture the Soviet oil-producing zone.

Since the Soviet Union transferred most of the Transcaucasus troops to Moscow to participate in the Moscow defense war, the Transcaucasus region was short of troops. The Transcaucasus Front was already scared by the German steel torrent. In order to avoid being surrounded by the German army again and avoiding the tragedy of the Battle of Kiev, the Soviet army planned to retreat voluntarily and planned to set fire to all oil refining equipment.

Stalin immediately opposed it. Although he knew the danger of falling into the hands of the Germans in the oil zone, the Soviet army's armored troops would lose their combat effectiveness without the oil zone. If even oil was imported from the Chinese Empire, then the Soviet army's neck would be pinched by the Chinese Empire. Stalin knew the strategy of the Chinese Empire very well. Once that happens, the Chinese Empire would definitely squeeze the hard-earned money of the Soviet people, and even directed the stalemate war like World War I again. The Soviet Union's hard-working economic construction for more than 20 years would be completely finished and the last drop of blood would be squeezed out by the Chinese Empire.

Stalin absolutely did not allow that situation to happen, so he ordered the Transcaucasian Front to fight to the end and not to retreat.

The Transcaucasian Front had lost six armored troops in succession. The more elite troops had long been transferred to Moscow by Stalin. At this time, General Andonov had less than 230,000 people, only a pitiful 133 tanks and 667 cannons. There were quite a few planes. There was a cemetery of the Tsarist Russian army during World War I nearby, with tens of thousands of old-fashioned aircraft inside, many of which could fly, but unfortunately the Soviet army did not have so many pilots.

In this case, Andonov could only order the Soviet army to fight against the German steel torrent with flesh and blood. The result was obviously one-sided slaughtered by the German army.

On December 8, the German army broke into the Transcaucasus area. Andonov was powerless to make a comeback. A large number of Soviet troops surrendered. No one around him even went to blow up the oil production facilities of Maikop and Grozny.

At this critical moment, under the secret command of the Chinese Empire, Armenia, a Transcaucasian country, dispatched six armored divisions and 12 mountain infantry divisions on December 9, secretly crossed the Caucasian Mountains into Almaville, forcibly seized the local Soviet army's ordnance, and controlled the Maikop oil zone. At the same time, the Armenian Caspian Navy dispatched eleven destroyers to cover two motorized infantry divisions landing in the Malachikala area. The local Soviet army thought that the German army was coming, and without any resistance, it confiscated the equipment, and the Grozny oil zone also fell into the hands of Armenia.

When the German army forced Andonov, commander of the Soviet Transcaucasian Front, and the 110,000 Soviet troops, were happily preparing to receive the abundant oil of Maikop and Grozny, they found that there had been labeled as Armenia.

The German army immediately negotiated with Armenia, but was rejected by Armenia. Since the main messenger behind Armenia was the Chinese Empire, Germany had to beat the dog to see the owner and immediately sent a special envoy to negotiate with the Chinese Empire. However, the Chinese Empire refused to express its opinion, hoping that Germany and Armenia would sit down to negotiate calmly. The Chinese Empire did not want the two countries to have a conflict of force.

The Chinese Empire's reply was obviously partial to Armenia. Germany and Armenia had almost no hope for the negotiations between them, because Armenia refused to let go and had incorporated these two oil zones into the Armenian territory. Hitler was so angry that his hair stood up.

At this time, the Soviet Union immediately sent representatives to negotiate with Armenia, thanking the Armenian army Kang Kang for their help. The Soviet Union wanted to send troops to defend Maikop and Grozny with the Armenian army, but Armenia refused. Stalin was also quite dissatisfied with this, but considering the current situation in the Transcaucasus region, Stalin chose to compromise with Armenia and temporarily allowed the Armenian army to station there, but hoped that Armenia would supply oil to the Soviet Union.

With the mediation of the Chinese Empire, Armenia agreed to export crude oil to the Soviet Union at a price of 18 dragon coins per barrel. Although this is already the lowest international price, it is 7 dragon coins cheaper than the oil sold to Germany by the Chinese Empire, but it still makes Stalin very distressed.

But Stalin still chose to compromise. He hoped to use this incident to make Armenia go to war with Germany, so that the Soviet Union would have one more ally. At the same time, the Chinese Empire behind Armenia will definitely have some action, and the chance of joining the Allies will be even greater.

Hitler was very clear about the interests of this, but his hesitation caused dissatisfaction among the German army in the Caucasus.

On January 17, 1942, the 25th Armored Army of the Caucasus Army brazenly launched an attack on the Armenian Army, and the Yad War broke out. On the same day, Armenia declared war on Germany, and Germany was then forced to declare war on Armenia.

The Chinese Empire remains neutral, but secretly supports Armenia's war against Germany. This is different from the Chinese Empire's support for the Soviet Union and Britain and France. The relationship with them is only a money relationship, and the weapons exported to them are "foreign trade streamlined". However, Armenia is completely dependent on the wings of the Chinese Empire and is a member of the Greater China Co-prosperity Circle. The Chinese Empire's support for Armenia is comprehensive. The empire's high-end and sophisticated weapons and equipment can basically find a shadow in the Armenian army. The Chinese Empire made Armenia go to war with Germany, which is actually the Chinese Empire's side that wants to test the true combat effectiveness of the German army through the Armenian army, and see how much the gap between the Chinese and German armies is, laying a solid foundation for the Chinese Empire to intervene in World War II in the future.!~!
