Haishan was able to pull out a team of 4 to 5,000 people in less than one month, and it was directly related to Russia's change of position, from not directly intervening in the battle between Kulun and East China** to fully supporting Kulen. Because after Russia 4, 50 years of infiltration, in Mongolia has a considerable influence, and although Russia suffered a crushing defeat in the Far East War, but Mongolia has no direct perception of this war, so although the Far East War has a certain impact on Mongolia, but in the eyes of the people in Mongolia, Russia is still a behemoth, at least a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so Russia came out to stand for the sea and mountains, and indeed made many still wavering tribal flag alliances firm their minds, thinking that with the support of Russia, the chances of recovering Kulen and driving out the People's Army are still very great.

Of course, Russia's sudden change of stance and posture of all-round support for Mongolia is not for the sake of Mongolia and wants to be an all-out enemy of East China, but also for unspeakable hardships.

Although from a military point of view, this was a successful assault and a case that the military and tactical theoretical institutions of all countries should focus on studying, but at the political level, it undoubtedly disappointed most countries, including Britain, France, Japan, Russia, and other countries that were hostile to East China in the Far East War.

When the Mongolian War was launched in East China, Britain, France, Japan, Russia and other countries were waiting to see the jokes of East China, of course, they did not think that Mongolia could resist the enemy in East China, but the territory of Mongolia is vast, and the Mongolian army is mainly cavalry, very mobile, Jebtsundamba VIII is another leader who integrates politics and religion, and has a strong call in Mongolia, so as long as the tactics are appropriate, it is fully capable of creating considerable trouble for East China, and even let East China fall into a war quagmire.

Although Britain and France do not want Russia to directly confront East China, and explicitly prohibit the investment of aid funds from the two countries in Mongolia, the two countries have also reached an agreement in private, if the Cullen side can drag East China ** into the war for more than half a year, the two countries can consider giving Cullen a certain amount of assistance to strengthen Cullen's war capability.

But no one thought that East China ** played a long-distance attack, directly took Kulen, captured Jebtsundamba VIII, and completely annihilated the Mongol army in the Dalinor Lake area, and in this battle, not even a month, the situation in Mongolia was basically determined. Although it cannot be said that East China can control the whole of Mongolia in a stable manner, it can occupy a dominant position in Mongolia, and it has lost the center of Kulen, which is extremely important in political, economic and cultural significance, and there is no co-owner who can convince the public, so it is impossible for there to be an opposition force in Mongolia that is enough to threaten East China. And with the integrated governance ability of East China, it will take 2 or 3 years at most, which is enough for East China to establish a solid rule in Mongolia.

After Jebtsundamba VIII issued a declaration to get rid of the Qing court and return to East China, and announced the expulsion of Russian forces, he once again let all countries see the means of East China.

Although the Russian and Qing courts subsequently expressed strong protests to East China**, accusing East China ** of invading Mongolia and holding Jebtsundamba VIII hostage. Russia accused East China of entering the Russian Consulate in Kulen, which seriously violated the diplomatic principles of international conventions, and called on the entire international community to work together to contain East China, while the Qing court resolutely refused to recognize the declaration issued by Jebtsundamba VIII to leave the Qing court, believing that this was by no means the original intention of Jebtsundamba VIII, but a statement against his will issued under the coercion of East China**, and at the same time sent a request to other countries to uphold justice for the Qing court.

However, Russia and the Qing court jumped up and down and made a lot of noise, but Britain, France, Germany, the United States, Japan, and other countries remained silent at this time, did not respond to Russia's appeal, and politely declined the Qing court's request.

Germany and the United States were originally neutral, and even slightly biased towards the attitude of East China, of course, at this time will not talk nonsense, and Britain, France and Japan were originally improving relations with East China, they have no interests in Mongolia, if Cullen plays well, can create some trouble for East China, of course, I don't mind falling into the well and adding chips to myself, but Cullen is simply mud can't support the wall, and now the general trend has gone, Britain, France and Japan will certainly not offend East China for a force that has no support value , anyway, Kulen was destroyed, and East China ** occupied Mongolia, and he had no losses himself.

And Russia is different, Russia has invested countless resources in Mongolia, painstakingly operated for 4 or 50 years, although it cannot be said to be wiped out now, but with the strong entry of East China into Mongolia, it will definitely be completely expelled from Mongolia in the future. Russia is naturally not willing, and there are many Russian magnates who have investment businesses in Mongolia, once East China controls Mongolia, these investment businesses will inevitably be lost, so they also vigorously advocate to Russia to protect their interests in Mongolia.

Originally, Nicholas II was resentful of his continuous concession to East China, so this time he decided not to retreat like East China, and at this time, Colonel Popov, the Russian consulate in Ussuritai, sent telegrams to St. Petersburg continuously, strongly suggesting to assist Haishan, recover Kulen, and rescue Jebtsundamba VIII, so that the situation in Mongolia is still promising, so Nicholas II also ignored the opposition of many ministers, ordered Popov, appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the Russian army in Mongolia, and helped Haishan recapture Kulen. However, Nicholas II finally did not maintain a trace of sanity, and did not order the garrison of the Far East to participate in the war, but only sent the consulate garrison in the Mongolian region, otherwise it would be a full-scale war with East China.

In addition to the cities of Kulen and Ussuritai, Russia also has consulates in Tarbagatai and Kashgar, and the garrison of each consulate ranges from more than 100 to more than 200 people.

At the same time, Russia frantically exerted pressure on East China on the grounds of attacking the consul in Kulun in East China, and also pulled the Qing court together to create public opinion that East China did not abide by the rules and invaded.

And the loss of Mongolia, for the Qing court, this is not only a major loss of national territory and face, but also the original Mongolia is also the retreat of many powerful people in the Qing court, because the marriages between Manchu and Mongolia are very frequent, and the Manchu magnates have several Mongolian relatives, but this completely cut off the back road of the Qing court magnates, and at the same time, they also felt the aggressive momentum of East China again. Of course, without the support of Russia, the Qing court may not dare to criticize East China so high-profilely, and it is Russia's full support for the Qing court that gives the Qing court the confidence to be a fox and a tiger.

Although Russia and Chunting jumped up and down like this, they could not change the overall situation of Mongolia, but East China ** would never admit it in terms of public opinion, so it was natural to fight back, on the one hand, he moved out of Jebtsundamba VIII, let him speak frequently, all of them supported East China**, accusing Russia and the Qing court's remarks, although everyone knows that now Jebzundamba VIII is a puppet, and East China ** let him say whatever he wants, so that even if these words are not said by him, he is not sure, but East China ** Even in the name of Jebtsundamba VIII, it is still quite convincing, and on the other hand, it accuses the Russian consulate of supporting **** and ****, so as to justify the attack on the Russian consulate by East China.

Of course, the mouth cannon can be fought no matter what, Guan Jian still has to look at the performance on the battlefield, so as soon as Ouyang Longxing's team arrived in Kulun, he received an order from Qingdao, asking him to annihilate Haishan's team as soon as possible.

As for Chen Jingang, Ouyang Longxing's team is indeed very timely, not to say how strong the combat effectiveness of Haishan's team is and how difficult it is to deal with, but that the fuel of the armored motorized troops led by Chen Jingang is almost running out.

Armored motorized units rely extremely much on logistics, and their dependence on fuel accounts for more than half of the logistics. Of course, Chen Jingang's troops also brought some spare fuel, but they traveled more than 1,300 kilometers from a long distance, and by the time they reached Kulen, most of the fuel had been used. After the capture of Kulen, in order to maintain the inhabitants of Kulen, by its deterrent to Jebtsundamba VIII and the magnates, and also to prevent new enemies from retaking Kulen, tanks and armored vehicles had to constantly patrol and move inside and outside the city of Kulen, and these actions required fuel consumption.

Fortunately, the cavalry regiment arrived at Kulen at the right time to take over the patrol and visitation work, and the tanks and armored vehicles only had to carry out a small number of activities to maintain the deterrent, so that the consumption of fuel was greatly saved.

However, at this time, there was not much fuel left for the armored motorized troops, so Chen Jingang decided to maintain only one tank battalion and one motorcycle battalion with the activity capacity, and the other tanks and armored vehicles only kept a small amount of fuel to ensure the basic activity capability, and distributed in the inner and outer points of the Kulun city to garrison, but under normal circumstances, it was no longer used, in fact, it was used as a fixed fire point, and ten trucks were also left for use as a mobile force, and the other trucks were all drained of all fuel to supply tanks and armored vehicles. In this way, he finally persevered until Ouyang Longxing's team arrived.

In addition to the use on the way and the return of trucks, there are 30 vehicles, more than 70 tons of fuel, and the average fuel can be allocated to about 500 kilograms per vehicle, which is enough to re-energize the power of all armored motorized troops, and as long as tanks and armored vehicles can be re-activated, of course, there is no need to worry about the team of Haishan.
