"Haha, this 'middle school for the body, Western learning for use' is really good for food, after the transformation of our chef, the taste of Oros barbecue is much better than that made by Lao Maozi chef!"

In the residence of the governor of Vladivostok Aleksayev, Liang Kunri praised as he munched on Oros barbecue treated with Chinese spices.

The main forces under the command of Gorodikov, commander of the First Army in the Far East of the Hubei Army, were also surrounded by troops under the command of Liang Kunri after the detachments left and right of the Heilongjiang River were eliminated.

Liang Kunri commanded the troops to launch a fierce attack, which severely weakened Gorodikov's forces to less than one-fifth of the original strength, leaving only 20,000 or 30,000 horses remaining in the encirclement.

In order to attract the Third Army of the Far East of the Hubei Army to come to the death, Hu Zhen instructed to trap the remnants of the First Army, not to annihilate them for the time being, and to launch a general offensive to destroy them in one fell swoop when the Third Army of the Far East arrived.

In order to discuss the next action strategy, Hu Zhen summoned Liang Kunri, commander of the Northeast Theater, and Peng Xinghan, chief of staff, to Vladivostok.

Hu Zhen also ate a small piece of barbecue, and when he heard what Liang Kunri said, he said with a smile: "Liang Kunri has made great progress, and even when he eats barbecue, he thinks of something 'middle school for body and Western learning for use'!" ”

"That's the emperor's holy edict, and your subordinates don't dare not listen to it!" Although Liang Kunri said it very seriously, he continued to chew in his mouth, he had followed Hu Zhen for so many years, he knew that Hu Zhen was an informal person, and he didn't eat so elegantly.

Chief of Staff Peng Xinghan was not so casual, he just ate a small slice of barbecue and asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, when will the naval ships entering Heilongjiang be evacuated?" ”

At present, from the mouth of the sea to the upper reaches of Heilongjiang, all navigable areas have been controlled by the Huaxia Army and Navy, and they have played a great role in cooperating with the army.

Hu Zhen was holding a cup of coffee seized from the Governor's Mansion of the Hubei Army at this time, took a sip, and said to Zheng Dingbang: "You are in charge of the navy, or the deputy chief of general staff of the whole army, tell me about the river defense boat fleet!" ”

"Yes! Emperor. Zheng Dingbang replied and said:

"With the emperor's approval, the General Staff Headquarters has decided to set up a river defense boat squadron in the Northeast Theater, which is subordinate to your Northeast Theater and is responsible for the military work of water surface clearance, garrison, and transportation safety in the Heilongjiang River Basin.

Liang Kunri put down the barbecue he picked up: "I didn't expect that our Northeast Theater would have to take care of naval ships!" ”

As the boss of the navy, Zheng Dingbang was very unimpressed: "It's just that you can take care of the small boats in the inland river!" ”

Hu Zhen: "The navy doesn't have so much energy to care about inland river boats!" ”

"Do you have to deal with the fleet reinforced by Oros?"

Hu Zhen shook his head: "This is just one of them, and more importantly, we are facing a major challenge right away!" ”

"A major challenge?" Yang Yonglin, who had been standing quietly next to him eating caviar, was a little surprised, and now many people think that after the Huaxia Army defeated the Oros Pacific Fleet and captured Vladivostok, there would be no opponents in the entire northern part of East Asia and the Pacific, and what challenges could there be.

Hu Zhen stretched out his finger and pointed to the west: "It is precisely because after we defeat the Oros navy, it is possible to completely control the entire Asia-Pacific Ocean, and many countries and people will feel uneasy, maybe they will find some high-sounding reason to organize a joint fleet of various countries to conquer us, at least our fleet will be defeated, they will be at ease!" ”

Yang Yonglin: "Your Majesty, are you referring to England, France and other countries?" ”

"That's right, with the mentality of these Europeans, maybe tomorrow they will organize the Eight-Nation Coalition to come to Xingshi to ask for guilt! From now on, our navy must not relax at all, and must intensify training, no matter how many shells and barrels are knocked out, and how many materials are consumed, I will replenish you, as long as your navy has excellent artillery skills. ”

Zheng Dingbang and Yang Yonglin responded together: "Yes, the navy must live up to the emperor's expectations!" ”

Hu Zhen waved his hand and said: "Now I invite you to taste the Oros style feast, so you don't have to be so restrained!" ”

"Your Majesty, since there is a possibility that the European coalition forces will attack us, then we must destroy all the troops of the Far Eastern Front of the Hubei Army as soon as possible!"

Liang Kunri suddenly felt that there were still many opportunities to fight, and if his Northeast Theater did not seize the time, the more than 1.2 million troops of the Huaxia Army were now concentrated in the Northeast Theater, which had already exceeded 60 percent of the total strength of the Huaxia Army.

"Alekseev can't run anymore ......"

Hu Zhen was about to continue, when there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and an officer ran in with a telegram and shouted, "Report!" , the 4th and 5th divisions of the front-line cavalry are in an emergency! ”

Hu Zhen said to him: "Read it to everyone!" ”

“…… The 100,000 cavalry of the Hubei Army had completely collapsed under the blows of the 4th and 5th Cavalry Divisions, and now it is estimated that 57,000 enemy cavalry were killed, more than 40,000 were scattered, and the enemy cavalry commander Mishuchenko was trampled to death by the rout......"

Liang Kunri immediately laughed when he heard this: "Haha, this time the rapid mobility of the Far Eastern Front Army is over, and 20,000 cavalry have defeated 100,000 cavalry, which is amazing!" ”

Hu Zhen was very calm: "We have air supremacy, as well as information supremacy, firepower advantage, although the number of troops is less, but the entire system is fully superior, and it is to set up an ambush waiting for the Hubei cavalry, if you don't win, it is simply against the sky!" ”

Due to the poor infrastructure, the desolate area could not use tank armored troops, so Liang Kunri made up his mind about the cavalry: "The two cavalry divisions have given us the Northeast Theater, and the vast land from Heilongjiang to the Arctic Ocean is indispensable for the huge role of cavalry!" ”

"No, this cavalry, like the armored tank unit, is a mobile force directly under the General Staff, and now that the cavalry corps of the Second Army in the Far East has been eliminated, the Fifth Cavalry Division can be left to you, but the Fourth Cavalry Division will board a ship in Vladivostok tomorrow and transport it back to Tianjin, and hand it over to the command of the Northern Theater of Operations, and the empty city plan of the Northern Theater has been sung for too long, and it can't be sung anymore!"

"Then we can use the captured horses to form a few cavalry regiments or cavalry battalions!" Liang Kunri had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, but he was very cunning and did not say that he wanted to form a large-scale unit such as a cavalry division, but a small-scale unit such as a cavalry regiment and battalion, and the General Staff would not keep an eye on it every day.

How could Hu Zhen not know the little Jiujiu in Liang Kunri's heart, he said with a smile: "If you want to form it, you can form two or three cavalry divisions, I want you to sweep the entire Far Eastern coastal area up to the vast land of the Arctic Ocean after solving the Far Eastern Front, which is the permanent territory of the Chinese Empire!"
