For example, a unit like the First Field Division of the Chinese Army must be supplemented by the best fighters from each combat unit, and then soldiers from the local corps must be transferred to each combat unit, and the cycle of replenishing blood is relatively long! If the First Field Division of the Chinese Army is to be restored to combat effectiveness, it will be four or five months at the earliest. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

President Meng let out a long sigh, although he won, he was not happy at all, according to Xuan Jianzhang's speculation, Tsarist Russia had a large number of reinforcements on the way, and President Meng also expected it.

"President, this is news from Moscow, the head of the Russian station of the Bureau of Statistics reported that Tsarist Russia has an army of more than 50,000 people, which is going to Turukhansk for reinforcements. The leader of the team was Marshal of Tsarist Russia Dimitry Konbarov, and the adjutant accompanying him was an acquaintance known to President Moe, the former deputy commander of the Tsarist Far East Army, Andrey Yeshchenko. Wang Zhankui reported to President Meng.

President Meng nodded, confirming his idea so quickly, however, he was even more worried, more than 50,000 people? "Is there a cavalry unit?"

"Yes, five cavalry divisions! More than 10,000 people! Wang Zhankui showed the information to President Meng.

President Moe frowned.

In front of the huge map, Wang Zhankui began to use small flags to mark the movements and positions of the various Tsarist Russian troops.

The flag of the Chinese army is a black and red five-pointed star flag, and the national flag of Tsarist Russia is a black, yellow and white tricolor flag.

The original Tsarist flag was the white, blue and red tricolor.

The white, blue, and red tricolor comes from the red, white, and blue tricolor flags adopted during the reign of Peter the Great in 1697, and the red, white, and blue tricolors are known as the pan-Slavic colors. When Peter the Great went to the Netherlands in 1699 to study shipbuilding, he realized that he needed to design a flag for the Russian navy. He thus emulated the design of the Dutch flag, but in a different colour (the Dutch flag at the time was orange-white-blue).

The colors chosen by Peter the Great at that time were red, white, and blue, which later became the Pan-Slavic colors.

In 1858, the Russian Empire changed its flag to a black, yellow and white tricolor!

Therefore, the position and number of Tsarist Russian troops identified by Wang Zhankui were replaced by black, yellow and white tricolor flags.

On the side of a large number of black, yellow and white tricolor flags, the black and red five-pointed star flag of China is particularly conspicuous, because of the special concentration, China's field army, excluding the garrison troops, is almost all concentrated around Beijing, either to help build the Mongolian longitudinal railway line and the railway network in the northeast, or concentrated in some areas south of Irkutsk, showing a straight line.

The black and red five-pointed star flag is divided into two parts, the upper half is black, the lower half is red, and then in the middle is a big yellow five-pointed star!

Black represents the iron will, red represents the Huacui Party, and the yellow five-pointed star represents President Meng, simple and powerful, symbolizing the people of the whole country, following the steps of President Meng, conquering the world, making the Han culture, covering the determination and goal of the world, and letting the people of the world live a happy and peaceful life.

The establishment of the Tsarist Russian Army is composed of peacetime and wartime, three peacetime formations. Strengthen the peacetime organization of 680 soldiers, ordinary peacetime organization of 11500 soldiers, and basic peacetime organization of 11 320 soldiers.

In wartime, it was organized into: 900 soldiers in the infantry battalion and 720 soldiers in the shooting battalion (4 companies of 180 men each). The number of people provided for in these programmes is lower than originally envisaged.

Tsarist Russia had more than forty infantry divisions (40 infantry divisions, 4 grenadier divisions, 2 guards divisions).

The division is composed of 4 regiments and 3 battalions (4 main companies and 1 shooting company).

Of these 47 divisions, 28 divisions were transferred to the reinforced organization in August of that year, 12 divisions were transferred to the ordinary peacetime formation, and 7 divisions deployed in the Caucasus were also transferred to the peacetime formation at the end of the year.

In addition, the combat infantry unit includes 30 separate shooting battalions and 48 main battalions.

These 48 main battalions are deployed in the Caucasus, Siberia, Turkestan and Orenburg regions.

Now that the Tsarist Russian army in Siberia has been completely annihilated by the Chinese army, it has also made the life of the Chinese army a little easier, but it is followed by the elite infantry in the Caucasus, and President Meng knows that the Chinese army will face greater challenges.

The combat artillery units of the Tsarist army were divided into two types: infantry artillery and cavalry artillery (each infantry artillery brigade had four artillery batteries, and the mounted artillery brigade had two artillery batteries, each artillery company had eight guns).

Infantry artillery corresponds to infantry divisions, there are 47 artillery brigades!

The cavalry artillery consisted of 4 Guards cavalry artillery batteries and 7 cavalry artillery brigades of 2 companies.

The cavalry formation includes 56 regiments, 4 cuirassiers, 20 dragoon regiments, 16 lancer regiments, and 16 cavalry regiments!

They make up 10 cavalry divisions.

With the exception of the Guards Cavalry Division and the Caucasian Cavalry Division, which consisted of 4 regiments, the other divisions were composed of 6 regiments, 2 regiments each of the cavalry, lancers and dragoons, forming 3 brigades.

Each regiment consisted of 4 cavalry companies.

Cavalry units in the border areas have a wartime establishment: 777 soldiers and non-commissioned officers per regiment, and in other areas there is a peacetime establishment: 689 soldiers and non-commissioned officers per regiment.

The combat army also included 8 fortress regiments and 3 fortress battalions, as well as 54 fortress artillery batteries.

Under the Regulations of 1864, the local army was also given a new strength.

Each provincial capital has set up l provincial battalions, with 4 or 2 companies. 80 reserve battalions, 70 infantry battalions and 10 shooting battalions were also formed for recruit training.

The reserve cavalry, artillery and engineer units were organized in about the same size as the infantry.

The ballaching regiment has only 3 backbone battalions per regiment, so there are a total of 36 battalions.

The formation of the reserve cavalry corps was as follows: the 1st Army had 3 divisions (2 cuirassiers, 1 lancer division), including 6 brigades, i.e. 12 regiments, for a total of 80 cavalry companies (48 cuirassiers, 32 lancer companies).

There was also an mounted artillery division, consisting of 3 brigades (6 artillery batteries) with a total of 48 guns.

The Second Army had 3 divisions (1 lancer division, 2 dragoon divisions), that is, 6 brigades, including 12 regiments, that is, 112 cavalry companies (32 lancer companies, 80 dragoon companies).

There were also 2 cavalry engineering companies and 6 cavalry artillery batteries with 48 guns.

The Caucasian Army consisted of: 1 reserve grenadier brigade with 2 regiments, i.e. 6 battalions; 3 infantry divisions with 12 regiments, i.e. 48 battalions; 1 Chasseur Battalion; 1 engineer battalion; 47 battalions (extraordinary reserves) of the Caucasus defense zone; A total of 103 battalions. The cavalry consisted of 1 dragoon regiment with 10 cavalry companies. The artillery consisted of 1 division, 10 ordinary artillery batteries and 6 mountain artillery batteries, with a total of 180 artillery pieces.

The Finnish army consisted of 1 division, including 2 brigades, i.e. 12 infantry battalions. The Orenburg Army consisted of 1 division, which also included 2 brigades, but only 10 infantry battalions.

The Siberian Army consisted of 1 division, including 3 brigades, with a total of 15 battalions. (It has been completely wiped out by the Chinese army.) ）

An important figure is involved here, Tsar Alexander II is a capable monarch, needless to say, President Moe knows.

What President Meng also knows is that the reason why the Tsarist Russian army is so strong is because there is a military genius, that is, War Minister Dimitrimiryukin!

Otherwise, such an army formed on the basis of feudal rule by the Tsarist army would not be so capable of fighting, and the war minister of Tsarist Russia, Dimitrimiliukin, standardized and ordered all the Tsarist Russian troops, although the soldiers were like robots, or like puppets, they looked very dull, but the overall combat strength was actually strengthened, and the War Minister Dimitrimiliukin's deep understanding of discipline is the most powerful guarantee for an army.

The Chinese army also pays attention to military discipline and the political beliefs of the Huacui Party, but these are still not enough to deal with the puppeteer-like Tsarist army, and in terms of weapons and equipment, as well as national strength, they cannot be crushed.

The irregular troops of Tsarist Russia, mainly cavalry:

Don Cossacks - 56 regiments, 6 centenarians each, a total of 336 centurs, 13 artillery batteries;

Black Sea Cossacks - 72 centurions, 9 battalions, 3 artillery batteries;

Cossacks of the Caucasian zone (in the area of the Kuban and Terek rivers) - 120 centurians and 3 artillery batteries;

Astrakhan Cossacks - 18 hundreds, 1 artillery battery;

Orenburg Cossacks - 60 centurions, 3 artillery batteries;

Ural Cossacks - 60 centurions;

Bashkiria troops - 85 centurians (almost all Bashkirians and Kalmyks);

Siberian Cossacks - 24 battalions, 84 centurians, 3 artillery batteries, part of which were Tunguska, Buryats and other nationalities;

The Azov Sea Cossacks served in the naval service;

Danube Cossacks in Bessarabia - 12 centurions;

Transbaikal Cossacks, which were formed not so long ago; Its organization and number of troops are unknown.

The above totals about 847 centurions, 33 battalions, and 26 artillery batteries. There were about 90,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry.

At present, however, only 40,000 to 50,000 cavalry and several artillery companies can be used to fight on the western border, while there is not a single battalion of infantry.

From this, it follows that in peacetime the Russian army (in addition to the internal forces) consisted of: 360,000 infantry, 70,000 cavalry, 90,000 artillery, a total of 500,000 people (Cossacks are not counted, their number varies according to the situation).

But of these 500,000 men, the regional armies - the Caucasus Army, the Orenburg Army - could not be used on the western frontier of the empire in any war, so that the maximum number of troops that Russia could deploy against China was 260,000 infantry, 70,000 cavalry, 50,000 artillery, about 1,000 artillery pieces, and about 30,000 Cossacks.

This is how the Russian army was formed in peacetime. In order to cope with the war, Russia adopted the following measures: the entire period of service was set at 20, 22 or 25 years, depending on the circumstances, but after 10 or 15 years of service, the soldiers could be retired and transferred to the reserve.

The organization of this reserve is often changed, and during the first five years the retired soldiers are included in the infantry reserve battalion (the fourth battalion in the Guards Regiment and the Grenadier Regiment and the fifth battalion in the Cadre Regiment), the cavalry reserve company or the artillery reserve company, depending on the branch of the unit to which they belong. At the end of the five-year period, he was transferred to the infantry reserve battalion of the regiment, namely the fifth battalion of the Guards Regiment and the Grenadier Regiment and the sixth battalion of the Cadre Regiment, or to the cavalry reserve company and artillery reserve company. In this way, once the reservists are called up, the actual strength of infantry and artillery can be increased by almost 50%; Cavalry can be increased by almost 20 percent.

All reservists shall be commanded by retired officers whose cadres have been adequately or substantially trained.

"It turns out that Tsarist Russia has so many troops?" Princess Katrina Kafu was taken aback, looked at President Moe, and frowned slightly.

Wang Zhankui also felt worried, if he didn't put it on the map, they still felt that with the current military strength of the Chinese army, they could casually fight the Tsarist Russian army, but now the ace army like the First Field Division of the Chinese Army could not harden a remnant army of Tsarist Russia, and they had already accepted the idea of underestimating the Tsarist Russian army.

President Meng looked at the map, and compared the route of the estimated reinforcements of the Tsarist Russian army sent by the General Staff and the possible deployment situation after arriving at the rescue zone, President Meng frowned.

"It's very difficult, our two divisions go up and deal with more than 50,000 Tsarist Russian troops, it's still very difficult, and we still have to fight for time, if we don't arrive in Turuhansk before the Tsarist Russian army to replace the first field division of the Chinese army, something big will happen!" President Moe said to Princess Katrina Cafe.
