<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="56" > teenage inspirational drama - Zhukov's Counterattack Road</h1>
On November 19, 1896, Zhukov was born in a poor family in Kaluga Province, Russia, his father was a cobbler, and his mother was an ordinary rural woman, who usually took some agricultural work and did some part-time work to earn money to support the family. Zhukov's childhood was not as carefree as we remember, but Zhukov has been busy every day for life since he was born. The family was crammed into a dilapidated and leaky house, because the family was poor, there was really no money for Zhukov to study, and Zhukov, who had only finished primary school, graduated honorably; and was then sent by his father to his uncle as an apprentice. At the age of 12, Zhukov came to Moscow and began working as an apprentice in a fur workshop owned by his uncle to earn money to support his family.
Father hoped that Zhukov would be able to learn the craft well from his uncle, and then grow up to be a good blacksmith, if things continue like this, there may be a well-known blacksmith in the Soviet Union in the future, but the trajectory of history is sometimes so uncertain.
Zhukov, who had just joined the army
Working here in his uncle, Zhukov was not happy, Zhukov experienced the cold and warm of human feelings here, being exploited by his uncle every day, unable to complete the task and being beaten by the master, except for the sleep time to work 16 hours a day, so that Zhukov suffered from white eyes every day. So much so that Zhukov later wrote in his memoirs: "We must not only be beaten by the master, but also by the foreman, and then the boss lady will beat you from time to time, and we will be sealed by heavy shackles; but this heavy shackles are not something that minors can bear alone." ”
But even in this case, Zhukov did not give up his enthusiasm for learning. Fortunately, Zhukov's boss's eldest son became a good friend and often borrowed the boss's eldest son's books to read, which allowed Zhukov to successfully enter secondary school and obtain a secondary school diploma.
Uncle Zhukov
Zhukov stayed with his uncle for 6 years, and for 6 years he was exploited by his uncle every day.
But Zhukov himself was angry, and during these 6 years Zhukov became a well-known blacksmith in the neighborhood. When World War I broke out in 1914, his native Tsarist Russia decisively chose to join the Allies in resisting German aggression. Alexander, the eldest son of Zhukov's uncle, was determined to serve the motherland, signed up for the army, and then pulled Zhukov to ask Zhukov to go with him. Zhukov was about to agree, but the teacher in the workshop stopped Zhukov at the exit and gave his reasons. Teacher Fu said that Alexander could understand that he had gone to join the army, because his father had money, and he could act willfully, but Zhukov, you can't, you went to the battlefield, who will take care of your hungry old parents who are about to faint? If you die on the battlefield and no one takes care of your parents, even if you are injured and crippled, can someone take care of your stupid child?
Young Zhukov
In the face of the teacher's words Zhukov was silent, silently bowing his head and not taking a breath, the teacher was right, he did not have Alexander's conditions; Zhukov, who wanted to understand, declined Alexander's invitation. Alexander embarked on the road to join the army alone, and it had not been two months since Alexander joined the army, and Alexander was seriously wounded on the battlefield and sent back by his comrades, and Looking at Alexander's crippled body, Zhukov was even more silent.
As the German offensive became more and more sharp, the pressure on Tsarist Russia increased day by day, and in the end Zhukov could not escape the fate of the arrangement and embarked on the road to join the army.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" > the rise of Zhukov, the god of war</h1>
On August 7, 1915, zhukov, who had made up his mind, signed up for the army and enlisted in the army. No one could have imagined that the decision made by a young teenager on this day would directly change the fate of the future Soviet Union, which is the legendary butterfly effect.
Although zhukov was a recruit, Zhukov did not know that he had begun the road of marshal; zhukov was at the cavalry company of the 5th Regiment of Reserve Cavalry in Ukraine, being severely tortured by the instructor. Every day he woke up to the roar of the instructor and dragged his tired body to sleep, but these tribulations created Zhukov's tenacious character, and finally graduated with excellent results in the admiring eyes of the instructor!
Army
After graduation, Zhukov was selected for more professional training in the teaching team, and after successful graduation, Zhukov was already a quasi-non-commissioned officer. Zhukov, who had just finished training, had not yet taken a leave of absence when he received the appointment letter and rushed to the 10th Cavalry Division to the front line at once.
In the first battle of Madame Zhu ke's life, Zhukov fought bravely to kill the enemy, showed heroism, and even captured an officer of the German army, and was rewarded by the troops, and received a George Cross, which was a supreme honor. However, Lucky did not often stand by Zhukov's side, and during a reconnaissance mission, Zhukov's comrades unfortunately stepped on the thunder and died, and Zhukov was also seriously injured and was sent to the hospital for rescue.
After Zhukov recovered from his serious injuries, he was transferred to the reserve cavalry company in the village of Lager as a sergeant, and this time Zhukov's rank was again promoted. Zhukov came here at the first inflection point in his life, where Zhukov was first exposed to Bolshevik ideas, and soon Zhukov became completely fascinated with Bolshevik ideas and spread them to the people around him.
Soon on February 17, 1917, Zhukov's cavalry regiment directly broke out into an uprising, and the soldiers spontaneously formed a Soviet congress, and then elected Zhukov as the chairman of the soldiers' committee. On November 7, 1917, the October Revolution, which shocked China and foreign countries, broke out in Russia. Zhukov was again transferred to the 4th Regiment of the First Cavalry Division of Moscow in August 1918 to serve. But the new Socialist Soviet Republic soon fell into a predicament, and Western imperialism, one by one, looked at this new Soviet republic and opened its fangs!
World war ii
In June 1916 Zhukov ushered in a new round of fighting of his own, when the 1st Cavalry Division of Moscow, led by the legendary commander Frunze, fought against the well-armed Sack White Bandits. Zhukovkov's own comrades and the Sack White Bandits engaged in a fierce battle, and the number of casualties on both sides continued to rise, but the Sak White Bandits, although fierce resistance, were also doomed, and the Sak White Bandits were eliminated without a few more.
For the next year Zhukov was dealing with bandits, they were extremely vicious, they were very cunning, they were fierce, but Zhukov was not afraid, and in the process of fighting the fierce bandits, Zhukov accumulated a lot of combat experience. Due to the excellent performance of the bandits, Zhukov directly entered the Second Cadet Brigade in Moscow, which was another major turning point for Zhukov.
Here Zhukov, as a cadet, received the most advanced and comprehensive commander education, which made an important preparation for Zhukov to personally command the troops to fight and become a qualified commander in the future.
Zhukov
Due to the participation of the Polish Intervention Army, the Red Army of the Soviet Union lost the battlefield, and in August 1920, Zhukov's cadet brigade also went to the battlefield. After a bloody battle, the rebels and the Polish Intervention Army were all wiped out. After the battle, Zhukov was again transferred, this time directly to the 1st Regiment of the 14th Brigade of the Independent Cavalry as a platoon commander. As the war progressed, Zhukov was again transferred, this time directly to tukhachevsky, the father of the Red Army, to carry out the strangulation of the rebel army Antonov.
This battle was different from the past, this time Zhukov was almost killed, his company was directly surrounded by the superior strength of the enemy, facing the enemy army several times larger than his own, Zhukov knew that he only had a dead end if he did not resist. After a fierce battle, Zhukov's company directly killed one-third of its comrades-in-arms, and in just one day, one-third of the comrades who lived day and night were gone, and one second they were still smiling in front of their own eyes, and the next second they were in a different place.
Zhukov stubbornly held out, and the battlefield battle was fought until the end of 1921, and because of Zhukov's strong command of the operation, Zhukov was commended by the troops and awarded the Red Banner Medal.
In the subsequent battles, Zhukov felt that his knowledge level was insufficient, and after work, he studied hard late at night, and Zhukov's learning spirit was deeply loved by his division commander, and Zhukov was recommended by his division commander to study at the Leningrad Cavalry School for further study on the basis of military theory. This school was not simple, as the premier high-ranking commander training school of the year, this school gathered the generals who later became famous throughout the Red Empire, such as Rokossovsky, Bagramyan and other famous generals were Zhukov's old classmates, and each of them stood out as a marshal of the Red Empire.
Rokossovsky
In the autumn of 1925, Zhukov completed his further studies, Zhukov's theoretical and military command ability soared, which was fully exerted in subsequent battles, zhukov rose to fame, was appreciated by his military commander Temusingo, and personally received Zhukov. In 1929, Zhukov again went to moscow for targeted further study, where Zhukov completed a magnificent transformation.
Here Zhukov learned the essence of the real Soviet military command knowledge, Zhukov seemed to have discovered a sea of knowledge, here crazy to absorb nutrition. For the famous Frunze anthology, Tukhachevsky and other big men read the military works several times, and integrated their operational ideas into their own command style. Later, Zhukov not only served as a brigade commander of the army, but also as an assistant to the cavalry supervision department, these two positions allowed Zhukov to understand the command and combat methods of the front-line troops, and exercised his ability to only be capable; on the other hand, Zhukov fully understood how the army operated in combat, simply put, Zhukov learned and understood the combat and management capabilities of the army's combat machine.
During his time at the Cavalry Supervision Department, Zhukov participated in the first five-year plan for the construction of the army, which was of great significance, and also participated in the construction of the first mechanized army of the Red Army; his experience in the Cavalry Supervision Department and the major projects in which Zhukov participated laid the foundation for his future general who could command millions of troops.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="57" > star-studded World War II, Zhukov was born. </h1>
Since the outbreak of the Second World War, famous generals have been born in various countries, montgomery in britain, Yamamoto fifty-six in Japan, Rommel, Manstein, and Guderian in Germany; Zhukov in the Soviet Union, MacArthur in the United States, and Eisenhower are all famous war generals who shined in the Second World War.
second world war
With the end of World War II, among the many famous generals of the United States, Eisenhower became the president of the United States, and MacArthur became the five-star general of the United States. Montgomery of Britain became the deputy commander of the NATO army, but Zhukov had a miserable ending, and there was no complete end.
In the Battle of Moscow that year, Stalin said to Zhukov: "Comrade Zhukov, can we hold Moscow?" I ask you, with great sorrow, to tell me with the loyalty of a member of the Communist Party. ”
Zhukov replied: "Comrade Stalin, there is no doubt that we can hold Moscow, but I still need two army groups plus 500 heavy tanks.
Stalin and Zhukov
Before the outbreak of war, at the end of July 1941, Stalin had a disagreement with Zhukov on whether to give up kiev, so Zhukov was directly dismissed from the post of chief of the general staff and became the commander of the reserves. Although his official position was demoted, Zhukov's passion for fighting was not less. At the Battle of Smolensk in August, Zhukov personally commanded yelinya's counterattack, directly knocking out the German army's bridgehead and forcing the German army to retreat strategically. In this attack, Zhukov used his iron-blooded command style to carry out saturation strikes; the artillery fire covered the German camp, the German army collapsed, shells were everywhere, every place was exploding, and every moment the German soldiers were constantly dying under the artillery fire.
The survivors of Germany's elite unit, the "German Legion", were pale in their memoirs about this incident, and the impression of the artillery fire in the sky was too deep.
German Legion
In 1941, Zhukov was appointed directly as the commander of the Leningrad Front, and Zhukov, who had already issued a military order, must hold Moscow, and could not defend himself and could only repay the country with his death.
In the face of the panic of the people, Zhukov was well aware of the importance of the people's hearts, and the battle was fought by morale, and no matter how good the weapons and equipment of a low-morale unit were, they would not have any combat effectiveness. To this end, Zhukov imposed severe sanctions, and at the same time constantly improved the morale of his own army, and when he was at war with the Germans, he directly exerted his artillery doctrine and blocked the blitzkrieg of the German army with his own artillery group. Breaking the German blockade of Leningrad before the winter did not break through the German blockade, but it still interrupted the rhythm of the German offensive.
Throughout the Great Patriotic War, the Soviets had lost the importance of Kiev, and if Leningrad were to be lost, the Soviets would be left with despair' because Leningrad was an important economic and military base of the SOVIET Union, and to lose it would be to abolish its martial arts.
The Moscow War
In 1941, the German army took the lead in launching "Operation Typhoon", and achieved good results, which directly led to the opening of the moscow portal and was in danger. Zhukov was not in danger, accurately analyzed the main operational intentions of the German army in the true and false military intelligence; he threw his few reserves into the battlefield gap, and the unimportant defensive areas directly extracted the soldiers to concentrate their forces to defend the main direction of the German assault.
The capital of the Soviet Union was in jeopardy, and in the face of a powerful German offensive, it was in danger of falling at any time, and the Germans did not give Zhukov much time to prepare, and it was not long before they launched another combat offensive against Moscow. It should be known that Zhukov had fewer than 100,000 scattered troops who could fight, so that in the end the elderly, children, and women all went to the battlefield to fight.
Zhukov's only advantage was that he was close to Moscow, and he could continuously obtain fresh troops and military supplies, while the German army was too long because of the long front, and supply became the biggest problem.
Moscow
The German army fought for more than half a month in order to contribute to Moscow and Zhukov, and the military deployment of both sides was basically familiar with the situation, but the Appetite of the Germans was a little too big, so time became a friend of Moscow as long as it dragged until winter, heavy snow, and supply difficulties of the German army will be defeated.
At that time, all the countries thought that the Soviet Union was going to be finished, and no one could survive the blitzkrieg of the German army, but the miracle was that it appeared, Zhukov completed this miracle, not only successfully defended Leningrad, but also saved Moscow, Zhukov became a god of war in the Soviet Union with this battle, and became a well-known generation of war gods in the Soviet Union.
When modern people study this history, some people point out that if Stalin had not chosen Zhukov at that time, but changed other generals to defend, Moscow is still not there today.
Zhukov with medals hanging
However, history did not join, and the gears of history kept advancing in the long river of time, and at that point in time, the most correct choice was made. In this tragic war, the Soviet soldiers broke out in addition to the unparalleled war potential, the Soviet soldiers were like the god of death coming out of purgatory, and launched a crazy attack on the German army without a life, one person fell down and another person immediately continued to fight, and everyone had this fiery flame burning in their hearts, and this flame was called the Red Faith.
The Germans, who had experienced the defeat of the Moscow Defense War, were no longer able to continue to attack Moscow, and the Moscow Defense War became an important turning point in the direction of World War II. Regarding Zhukov's achievements in the defense of Moscow, it is no exaggeration to say that Zhukov rewrote the inevitable death of the Soviet Union, saved the Soviet Union, and rewrote the history of the world.
Statue of Zhukov
There is now a statue on horseback on Moscow's Red Square, that is, the statue of Zhukov, who left his name in the history of Soviet military warfare, which has been passed down through the ages.
This issue of the topic ended here, like the small partners do not forget to like, collect, pay attention to Oh, your support is my biggest motivation, it is said that the people who like it will be off the order next month.
