War is never just confined to the battlefield, and a commander-in-chief may only consider the deployment of troops, firepower, logistical supplies, and other factors that will lead to victory, but politicians can consider things that are complicated.

It is easy to start a war, but it is very difficult to end a war, and all kinds of problems are testing the thinking of politicians on how to deduce the variables in the later stages of a war and how to prevent the intervention of new forces.

"Brothers, I have been paying attention to the changes in the situation on the Ussuri River, we did not intervene in the Yuhai uprising before, on the one hand, because we did not have enough strength, and on the other hand, the international situation at that time was not the best opportunity to make a move!"

"The Western powers are all a pack of wolves, although they have contradictions and conflicts with each other, but after all, they are all under the nourishment of a religious belief, and the civilization system is the same, so when facing other civilizations, it is natural to huddle together to keep warm......"

"For example, in 1860, when Britain and France invaded the city of Beijing, it was clear that only the British and French forces fought, but in the end the Russians and Americans came to get a piece of the pie, and the British and French did not deliberately dismantle Taiwan, on the contrary, they thought that it was very beneficial for the whole of Europe to jointly weaken China's power......"

"The core of the problem is still in civilization and nation, and Westerners have never forgotten the saying that non-our race must have different hearts, so if we rashly fought with the Russians or even went to war before, it is very likely that France and even Britain will abandon the previous contradictions with the Russians and jointly deal with us......

"Remember, what the British need is for us to curb the expansion of the Russians, not to make us strong and defeat the Russians completely!"

"Then this battle is still a fart!" Luo Huo roared angrily.

"Fight! Of course, we must fight, but the opportunity must be chosen, and we must choose to create a fait accompli when the Europeans have no time to look around, taking advantage of their lack of free hands!"

"Now that Europe has been enveloped by the Franco-Prussian crisis, the critical moment has come to change the future political landscape of Europe, and all the Western powers dare not take it lightly, if France wins, then Napoleon III will succeed in consolidating his ruling foundation, and Britain will be one step closer as the second great power in the world......"

"If Prussia wins, then the changes will be even greater, France will not be able to run away from the land reparations, and France is destined to be in chaos, and even a new political system is formed, don't forget that the romantic French are born revolutionaries, and the impact of the French Revolution is still making the royal families of Europe feel uneasy!"

"So now is the best time for us to do it, Europe can't mobilize a single soldier except for verbal protests, and I don't want to be a spectator in this big war, as long as we get involved, as long as we join the camp of the winners, we can get the dividends of the winners......"

Everyone's emotions were stirred up by Xiao Letian, and Luo Huo said excitedly, "Two wars? Are we going to fight two wars, Europe will send an expeditionary force, and the Ussuri River will also send an army? Do we have enough troops? We have to recruit soldiers, we have to recruit soldiers......

Xiao Letian turned his head and motioned for Wang Huaiyuan to continue his intelligence recall, Wang Huaiyuan took a big sip of the teacup to moisten his throat, and tapped the location of Shanghai Senwei on the map with his baton.

"Vladivostok, renamed Vladivostok by the Russians, is the home port of the Russian Far East Navy, and now there are a total of 12 warships of various types, the largest of which is the wooden-hulled ironclad ship Aleut, which uses sail and steam power, and has a total of 64 guns......

"The rest of the surface warships are old sail frigates and fast privateers, such a fleet can still be majestic against the backward sailors of the Manchus and Japan and Korea, but this combat power in front of us is not enough......"

"Look at their army configuration, there are now a total of 3,000 Russian soldiers with Vladivostok, Shuangchengzi, and Sioux City as the core......"

"Three thousand! Is it only so much? How can it be so little?" there was an uproar in the conference room.

"Quiet!" Xiao Letian knocked on the table, "Is there very little three thousand? Do you know what kind of place it is? It is outside the gate of the white mountain and black water, and it is the Far East in the mouth of the Russians, and the lowest temperature in winter can reach more than minus 40 degrees!"

Xiao Letian stretched out his hand and pointed to the east of the Jilin General's Mansion, "This is Ning'an, we commonly call Ningguta, the Manchu Qing Dynasty punished people who committed heinous crimes, in addition to death, Ningguta was the heaviest slave of the armored people, which shows how bad the living environment here is!"

"In 1860, when the Russians were demographing and mapping the Ussuri River basin, the people of the Central Plains in this vast land ...... Remember, I'm talking about the combined population of the Manchu and Han people is only between 8,000 and 10,000, and the total area of this land is already more than 400,000 square kilometers......"

"Now, do you still think that 3,000 Russian soldiers are few? On the contrary, I think that Russia still attaches great importance to this land, and can put so many troops!"

"them! This little force still dares to be arrogant in front of us, and eat them in one bite, our Ryukyu Navy is lacking a home port......" The generals suddenly cheered excitedly.

Xiao Letian stretched out his hand and pressed them, "No...... I'm not going to eat this piece of fat in one bite, I'm going to treat him like a piece of bacon and lick him clean little by little, it's a very good whetstone, isn't it?"

"Here, I announce that the CIA has set up a secret organization, the Far Eastern Volunteers, and has drawn 300 grassroots officers from among the veterans of the New Army, taken off their Ryukyu uniforms, and went to the banks of the Ussuri River to lead those helpless insurgents, and to drain the enemy's blood little by little with a long guerrilla war......"

"Far Eastern Volunteers?" the generals' eyes lit up at once, "This is indeed a good way to avoid diplomatic disputes, and the Russians can't find an outlet for their anger at all!"

"The east bank of the Ussuri River, as well as the north bank of the Heilongjiang River and the Amur River, including Sakhalin Island, will become the main battlefield of the Far Eastern Volunteers, we will not fight for the gains and losses of one city and one place, what we want is to effectively kill and injure the enemy, so that those invaders will be completely plunged into endless war, so that they will have to carry ......guns to the toilet at night."

"Unite all the forces that can be united, the Manchus, the Han and the Oroqen, let them all join the war to expel the powers, the Manchus abandoned this land, we will not abandon it!"

Xiao Letian said with a sinister smile, "The Trans-Siberian Railway through Europe and Asia has not yet been built, and the long supply line can drag down the Russians alive, let them increase their troops, endlessly increase their troops, it doesn't work if there are fewer people, and the military expenses consumed by more people can drag down their fragile economic ......"

"What's more important is that if we fight harder here, in the future, when Zuo Zongtang enters Xinjiang, the pressure will be a little less, this is a win-win situation!"
