In simple terms, martial arts is fighting or fighting, and compared with the straight-forward martial arts, the literary struggle can be too complicated, from the quarrel to the mouth, to the conspiracy and power; although it seems that there is no great harm in martial arts, it is actually much more dangerous than martial arts.

The tragic Soviet World War II general, who pursued Guderian for 400 kilometers, was framed by Zhukov

However, this kind of power struggle is not unique to ancient China, in fact, it is happening continuously in any period in various parts of the world, but it is not as advanced as ancient China. And here I want to say, is the life story of a famous Soviet general during World War II, although this famous general only participated in less than half of the Soviet-German war, his merits were not inferior to any famous general, and he was also one of the three best-performing commanders of the three army groups during the counteroffensive.

He is Golikov, a name that is very unfamiliar to many people, and the reason why he is strange is because he did not participate in the later Soviet counterattack, not only did not participate in the later Soviet counterattack, but even his previous merits were mostly buried intentionally or unintentionally; of course, it is not that he offended Stalin, but he was simply framed by his colleagues and carried the "black cauldron"; and the people who framed him were Zhukov and Vasilevsky and others.

It is said that this Golikov was also an ill-fated man, who was dismissed at the beginning of the Soviet-German war due to intelligence errors, and was reassigned to negotiate with Britain and the United States on the supply of military supplies to the Soviet Union; only a few months later he was appointed commander of the 10th Army, I don't know if he was held back for too long, or he was very "fierce", after becoming the commander of the 10th Army, this Golikov seemed to have changed as a person, fighting without fear of death, making the enemy terrified.

In the Moscow counterattack, Golikov's 10th Army entered the battle on the left flank of the Western Front, defeated the second panzer group led by the famous German general Guderian by about 400 kilometers in the fierce battle, liberated 10 cities in a row, played an important role in crushing the German army in the direction of Moscow, and was one of the three best-performing army group commanders during the counter-offensive. Because Ofgokov's outstanding performance in the war, it was quickly reused.

He first became the commander of the 4th Army, then the commander of the Bryansk Front, and then the commander of the Voronezh Front, during which he lost miserably in the Battle of Kharkov, but he led his troops to fight tenaciously and finally broke out of the encirclement; after that, he successively served as the commander of the 1st Guards Army, the deputy commander of the Southeastern Front, the commander of the Southwestern Front, but eventually returned to the Voronezh Front and continued to serve as commander.

During this period, he made many great achievements, especially in the winter and spring counter-offensives, his front army was the most successful in battle, the most far-reaching assault, and the world-famous shock, and thus appeared on the cover of The American Time Magazine. In the later Kharkov counterattack, due to the friendly Vatutin misjudgment of the situation, he launched a hasty attack, which was easily defeated by Manstein and suffered heavy losses; so that Golikov's flank was exposed, but he was not allowed to retreat, and was attacked by the full force of the German Army Group South, and it was difficult to stabilize the position in the Kursk area with the support of reinforcements.

The defeat was supposed to be mainly borne by Vatutin, but since Vatutin was from the General Staff, his old superiors Zhukov and Vasilevsky came forward to shelter him and put the blame on the friendly neighbor troops before they were removed from their posts; who were the friendly neighbor troops? Naturally, it was the Voronezh Front, so Golikov was transferred back to the base camp and from then on he was sent into the cold palace and could not turn over, while Vatutin continued to roam.

For such a life encounter, Golikov naturally hated ah, although the cause was because of Vatutin, but the person who really framed him was not Vatutin, but Zhukov and others, so Golikov really listed Zhukov as the number one enemy in his heart; but Zhukov's performance during World War II was too dazzling, his reputation was in the sky, and the difference in status between the two sides was too great, so even if it was hate, it was only hate, until 1946, when he found the opportunity to take revenge, and almost let him succeed.
