August 10 1 1, mainland order number. 179 "The fighting with Soviet troops in Zhang Gufeng and Shacaofeng stopped from now on", and the previous mainland orderNo. 172 has been conveyed. On the same day, representatives of Japan and the Soviet Union met in Zhang Gufeng for on-the-spot negotiations. After two consecutive consultations in the afternoons of June 5438+0 1, June 5438+02 and June 5438+03, it was decided that both armies would retreat 80 meters from their positions in Zhang Gufeng. On August 13, the two sides exchanged prisoners and bodies in the southeast of Zhang Gufeng.
According to the party's recollection, it was Gaohu, where Hankou's combat troops were concentrated, that caused such an incident in a month from July 10, and the Central Command was extremely uneasy for a while. But from this, the conclusion of power reconnaissance is drawn: the Soviet Union has no intention of going out on a large scale, so it can eliminate worries and wage war against China.
After that, although the Soviet army occupied a solid position in Zhang Gufeng, our army did not try to recapture it. The Soviet side regarded the Zhanggufeng incident as a victory of the Soviet Union and publicized it.
According to the verdict, on July 9, the Soviet army occupied Zhang Gufeng, which few people have been to for a long time, and resolutely ensured the intention of the place. On the whole, it was not a serious war against Japan at that time, but to contain the Japanese army's actions in Central China. At the same time, in order to prepare for the war against Japan, it threatened the Japanese railways leading to Korea and East Manchuria, and scouted the Japanese preparations for the Soviet Union. In addition, probably due to the recent incident that General Skof, Minister of National Political Security, fled to the Northeast, the * * * movement was launched to restore the prestige of the Far East Red Army.
On August 12, Moscow Tass news agency announced this news: "The First Army of the Far East of the Soviet Red Army annihilated more than 8,000 invading troops, shot down 24 planes and destroyed 47 tanks. The Soviet Red Army is determined to defend the integrity of Soviet territory ... "
The credibility of many materials is questionable. The number of casualties on both sides announced by the Soviet Union during the Cold War can be found in Nomenham: Japan-Soviet Tactical Battle published by the US Military Command and Staff University. The Japanese army killed 526 people and injured nearly 900 people. Soviet troops killed 236 people [5]. However, the real number of casualties announced after the disintegration of the Soviet Union was 792 Soviet soldiers killed.
After the Zhang Gufeng Incident, the Japanese army opened a restricted area around Zhang Gufeng, forcibly removing 140 Han people from Yangguanping, Fangchuan, Yuan Huizhong and Shacaofeng.
