171 Night Raid

Japan's rise must have been built on the suffering of the Chinese. However, neither China nor Russia has in fact ever faced up to the Japanese, and this is both a blessing and a misfortune for Japan.

------------------- Dividing Line--------------------

As the Japanese field marshal, Dashanyan personally sat in Jilin, which shows the greed of the Japanese side for Northeast China. Because Hu Shanshi and Komura Shoutaro reached a secret agreement, Oyama Yan didn't expect that Hu Xiaoyan had no intention of fulfilling the agreement at all, but took advantage of his disappearance to tear up the agreement and reach an agreement with the Russians to attack Japan together. This is the reason why Dashan Yan was caught off guard.

Wasn't Lucia (Japan's name for the Russian state) afraid that the Japanese Empire would destroy it with a backhand? Dashan Yan was puzzled. You must know that because of the Gengzi Incident, most of Russia's troops were captured under the city of Beijing. There were less than 20,000 troops left in Siberia, and it was not until the middle of this year that the former tsar transferred more than 20,000 men from the country to Siberia, and at this time, after the Russian governor of Siberia recruited civilians into the army, only 50,000 troops could be mobilized.

However, Heilongjiang Province has a vast land, and a mere 50,000 people cannot achieve complete unification at all, and the current government affairs in Heilongjiang are still the responsibility of local Qing court officials, and the Russians are only responsible for collecting taxes from these officials. It was precisely because there were few Russians and there were many lands that Oyama Iwa did not expect that the Russians would have the audacity to provoke Japan. You must know that Japan has deployed as many as 150,000 people in Jilin. Although at least 50,000 of them are indigenous soldiers from North Korea and Taiwan. But the combat power is still not to be underestimated, and it is not something that can be shaken by a mere 50,000 people in Russia.

"Lucia! I want you to pay a terrible price! How dare you look down on my great Japanese Empire! Oyama Iwa shouted word by word at the battle meeting.

The middle-level officials below were all arrogant and arrogant, and it was a scene of black smoke and miasma.

However, the Japanese army is worthy of being the strongest army in Asia, and although the officers at all levels are somewhat emotionally out of control, the discipline of the troops is maintained perfectly. No matter how the TV movies of later generations scandalize the Japanese army, you have to admit that the Japanese Army is indeed one of the strongest in the world. Even the U.S. ** team in the late World War II paid an extremely painful price when fighting for the Pacific islands with Japan, so much so that the United States had to drop two atomic bombs to force Japan down. The U.S. Army has been a chicken rib from the founding of the country to future generations, and they have never completed a single meaningful offensive. Both in the Pacific theater and in the German theater in Europe.

General Patton, a world-famous four-star American general, would not have the slightest power to fight back against Rommel in his heyday. Historically, he was able to win because the mustache was jealous of Rommel (Rommel actually returned to Berlin for a banquet before the very important war!). In order to dispel the mustache's concerns, the German army was successfully attacked by Patton without a commander. )。 Even the German army, which did not have Rommel on the battlefield, made the US military suffer, and the hanging garden plan that the United States later came up with was a complete failure.

Although Japan's army combat effectiveness is not world-class, except for Germany and Russia, which can win steadily, other countries are not necessarily his opponents. As for China, it is absolutely irresistible, and the reason why China was able to hold on to the east and west of the Japanese army was that on the one hand, China's national consciousness was awakened, and on the other hand, it was also because the 300,000 Kwantung Army, the most elite of the Japanese army, was placed in the northeast to guard against the Russians and did not send troops. If the Kwantung Army let go of its hands and feet, it would be impossible to stop it with the few so-called famous generals under the bald head. Whether it is Xue Yue, Zhang Lingfu or Li Zongren, they have no power to fight back at all, this is not something that can be solved by the art of war, but strength. Absolute strength can break all intrigues!

Li Zongren's Battle of Taierzhuang was a tragic victory, and the ratio of enemy and enemy losses was not proportional at all! This was the result of Li Zongren's campaign with the most elite troops in the country. And the Kwantung Army also did not participate in the war.

At this time, Oyama Iwa could not imagine the power of the Japanese Army twenty years later, but at this time he still had the strongest trust in the army in his hands! The Japanese Army was drawn from the German Army. The German ** team learned a board at a glance into ten. The Art of War says that a first-class army is like an arm, and this is the case with the Japanese army at this time.

While Dashanyan confidently recounted the battle plan, Yevgeny Ivanovich Alekseev was leaving Caijiagou on the front line in an airship and heading to Shenyang.

For Alekseev's arrival, Wang Tingjiao was angry and angry. You must know that Hu Xiaoyan's plot against Russia against Japan arranged before his departure is a secret. The airship unit also signed a mercenary agreement to help the Russians. In other words, the airship to attack Japan did not mean that the Governor's Office of the three eastern provinces declared war on Japan, but was only hired by Russia. And Alekseev's coming to Shenyang doesn't give people an attitude of joining the war in the northeast? But Wang Tingjiao can't refuse, this is a rich man! Fortune boy!

"Mr. Alekseev, do you know how much confusion your arrival will cause us?" Wang Tingjiao asked angrily.

"Haha, Wang, you can't do this to your friends. I've paid a lot of money for your airship. It's a big price! Alekseev laughed.

"Okay, okay. You know, our airship has just discovered that the Japanese army has made new moves, so you are not afraid of the defeat of the troops? Wang Tingjiao asked depressedly.

"I'm sure as a friend, you won't let me down." Alekseev's smile did not diminish.

Or is this the Russians known for their hubris? And not the cunning British?

"Okay, we'll provide the necessary support, but you'd better be careful with your troops."

Wang Tingjiao took Alekseev to the airship assembly factory. Outside of Shenyang, there is a new research center. Universities and research institutes are being built here. The assembly and repair center for the airship is also here.

At present, the airship force has assembled a total of 25 ships, but five of them have been wrecked, one of which was transported to London by the British, and is still floating on the sea. Two of the other four were unusable due to crashes and burns, and two were towed here one after another. At the moment the two ships are being refitted in order to fulfill the requirements of Alekseev's luxury.

The outer part of the cotton cloth is painted with a faint gold, and the interior, not to mention the dining room, bedroom, kitchen, meeting room, fitness center, and restroom. In short, how to luxury. More valuable items, such as Persian carpets, expensive paintings, etc., can only be decorated after Alekseev arrives. Wang Tingjiao will not provide these flashy things, the key is that these are still expensive thieves. From Hu Xiaoyan downward, most people are not good at luxury. Even Hu Xiaoyan is famous for his simplicity when eating, and the people below are even more good at the top and happy at the bottom.

Alekseev only looked at it roughly, and put forward a number of opinions, Wang Tingjiao and the technician agreed, and then of course the price should be added a little bit. Anyway, for the wronged boss, if you don't slaughter it, you won't slaughter it!

Oyama didn't know that he was working a battle plan, while his opponent was still talking about luxury airships. If he knew, he would have vomited three liters of blood. This can't be blamed on him, neither Alekseev nor Wang Tingjiao actually paid attention to Dashanyan's attack.

For Alekseev, Heilongjiang's gains and losses are not important at all, but keeping his position is the most important thing. Therefore, the construction of luxury airships is much more important than the safety of Heilongjiang Province. And he didn't believe that the great Slavs could do anything better than the diminutive Japanese.

For Wang Tingjiao, who wins and who loses between Japan and Russia actually has nothing to do with the overall situation. They did not dare and could not come to attack Jilin. This is where the Great Qing Dragon Vein is located, and once they attack here, Emperor Xuanwu of the Great Qing Kingdom will have to provide more resources here. After all, the Japanese had only occupied Jilin and Korea for a short time, and the guerrilla warfare between Jilin and Korea had never ceased for a single day.

1900 is not 1930. The reason why Japan in later generations dared to launch a war of aggression against China was that Japan had been operating in Korea for a long time, and its soldiers and grain and grass supplies no longer relied on the mainland, but could be raised from Korea on the spot. The Japanese invasion of China in later generations were not all real Japanese, among which Koreans, Taiwanese, and Southeast Asian natives played an important role in it. And the Koreans are the most murderous. If the Japanese army invaded the Central Plains on a large scale in 1900, then its logistical supply problems would inevitably occur, and those Korean "guerrillas" would inevitably deal a heavy blow to the Japanese army.

The reason why Dashanyan dared to invade Jilin was that Japan and Russia reached an agreement, and the two countries sent troops at the same time, which put a lot of pressure on the Qing State. It was impossible for the Qing state to be the enemy of the two great powers at the same time. But now Japan and Russia have broken up. Of course, Japan will not dare to push the three eastern provinces too much, otherwise China and Russia will join forces, and Japan will inevitably suffer.

Wang Tingjiao understands this very well, so he doesn't care about Dashanyan. It is impossible for Dashanyan to offend Wang Tingjiao before completely subduing the Russians.

After getting Alekseev done, Wang Tingjiao returned to the Governor's Palace with a relaxed face, and this mile wall light had been waiting for a long time.

"Are you saying that the Japanese soldiers divided into five routes and set off at night, and now they have surrounded the Russian army camp in Caijiagou?" Wang Tingjiao smiled inexplicably.

"Yes. I summed it up with Lord Lu and many of the German staff officers. In this operation, the Russian army will inevitably suffer. Because these Japanese troops were scattered, the dispatch of airships did not play a role at all. And since the Japanese did this, they must attack at night, because the airships were unable to support the Russians at night. Cheng Biguang explained.

"In other words, the Russian army will be defeated in this battle!" Wang Tingjiao's smile was unfathomable.

"Yes." Cheng Biguang was a little inexplicable.

"Good. It's still an hour until dark, uh-huh. An hour later I will go and report this to Marshal Alekseev. ”

"Uh-huh?" Cheng Biguang was inexplicably surprised.
