Chapter 128: The Western Expedition Begins

Guangxu looked at the bills and knew that he had borrowed money for the New Year this year, so Guangxu, the emperor, was really a brainless look, so Guangxu immediately began to think of some countermeasures in various industries, and Guangxu also knew that a lot of the current investment was still in the early stage of the baby, and the effect had to wait for the previous stage to be revealed, and there was no way, so he could only wait. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Now just looking at the assembled army, it is about to start leaving, the army led by Ruitsev of Tsarist Russia has arrived in Kiev, and will soon come to the front line of China and Russia, Guangxu is most afraid of this old guy now!

Because he knew that this guy had no sign of dividing his troops so far, if he was still like this, it was likely that China's plan would be frustrated, so Guangxu started planning while preparing!

Guangxu ordered the army on the front line to start attacking, and he must give Ruitsev the illusion that China will attack in an all-out way, but Guangxu does not dare to act rashly now, the army brought by Guangxu is the most powerful army that China can assemble first, and I don't know how much time will take to gather such a powerful army.

On the front lines of Fort Grin and Tyumen, Chinese artillery fire was fiercely attacking, and on the front positions of Tsarist Russia, Russian protective nets were broken by Chinese armored vehicles one by one, and the Russian army was retreating.

The same happened in the Tobolsk Castle, the Gattomusky Fortress and the Ekhotsk Fortress, where a thousand-mile battle line was unfolded in front of the Chinese, whose cars often caught up with a distance of hundreds of miles in a day by virtue of their advanced mobility, and many of the Russians' horses were exhausted to death.

Since Friedrich took over the post of commander of the Eastern Crusade, there has not been a moment of good time, and it is even more infuriating that the eastern front, which he painstakingly managed, was broken through by the Chinese army after struggling to support it for half a month.

Friedrich had already asked for a good copy of this bastard in front of the Tsar, but now he had to think about where he was staying, and he led the rest of the army to retreat in the direction of Kiev, but it was strange that the Chinese army did not start a large-scale attack and pursuit.

In this way, the words he had prepared fell through, and now I have received more than ten orders to advance, but this Ruitsev knows that the fate of the attack is failure, and that is the failure of Brusirov, so Ruitsev has been insisting that such a defeat must not happen to him.

His plan is that the Chinese army will definitely attack Kyiv, and at that time he can say that the Chinese army is attacking too fast, not because he has no assistance, at that time he just needs to hold on well in Kyiv, that is relying on the production and manufacturing capacity of Kiev's industry, so that he can still fight with the Chinese army.

At that time, the Chinese army was fighting far away from the mainland, and the supply line was lengthened, and the advantages of Tsarist Russia were also reflected at that time, so abandoning the cities on the front line and holding on to Kiev was the best strategic choice for Russia!

But neither the Russian Tsar nor the State Duma, nor at the forefront of the Eastern Crusade Army, intended to give him this opportunity, and the Russian Tsar, the deputies of the State Duma, and the military commanders of the various magistrates, hoped that Ruitsev would immediately end the war against China and then return to Europe, which is also in great crisis on the European battlefield.

But Ruitsev simply ignored these voices, but the situation was undoubtedly at its worst, and now the Tsar ordered him to come to Fredlich's aid at once, or else the Tsar would immediately send someone to take his place, and he would also be tried for his crimes. So now he already has to attack.

It's sad to know that you can't do it!

The army assembled in Kiev was finally dispatched, more than a million troops, like the arrival of the tide, were lapping the Asian continent, along the way they met a lot of retreating soldiers, only a few of them had horses, most of them were very tired, but when they saw the departure of the army, they were numb.

Just three months ago, they were in the same spirits, with a total of more than 1.5 million troops, but now they have also disappeared, and the remaining troops of less than 500,000 have either withdrawn to the rear or are on the way back!

Ruitsev ordered the army to start a rapid march and immediately began a massive march, but at the battle meeting, all the generals received an order that they did not expect.

From Tyumen in the north to the Ekhottsk fortress in the south, the Chinese army was ready, and the Chinese army still had no advantage over the Russians, so China, as usual, began to store as many weapons and ammunition as possible, relying on the advantage in firepower to resist the Russian offensive.

The Chinese army began but did not see the Russian army during the days when the Chinese army was ready, until one day the Chinese scouts found the Russian cavalry five hundred miles outside the fortress of Gatomusco.

It was a sunny day, a company of scouts, they carried a radio on their backs, leaning on the periphery to carry out reconnaissance missions, more than 20 days have passed, and the Chinese soldiers know that Russia will definitely fight back, so they have been stepping up reconnaissance of Russia's movements, and have been making preparations!

When the Russian soldier appeared in the scout's telescope, the scout was not surprised, watching the Russian army appear, they sent a report to the division headquarters of the 702nd Division, and a scout next to him was carefully counting the number of Russian soldiers, and while counting and telling the people next to him, I think there must be at least 100,000 people!

Another scout said; "100,000 people can't pass our fortress at all, and it's useless to come with 200,000!"

But!

There were far more than 200,000 Russian soldiers in their shots, and this was only the vanguard, and when the two scouts looked at the Russian army in the telescope as if it were an endless river, they felt a little trembling!

At this time, the other soldiers noticed their strangeness, but now they could not be counted, and it was important to retreat quickly, because the Russian army was already very close to this scout company.

The scout said as he ran; "There are at least 500,000 of them, 500,000 of them!"

At this time, there were more than 30,000 people in Gatomusco, and this was the result of another replenishment of personnel later, I didn't expect that Russia would not divide its troops, but concentrated all its forces and attacked this fortress together, and then the news reached Shang Rongqian, chief of staff in Astana!

Seeing that all the horses in Russia were attacking the small fortress of Ekhotsk, Shang Rongqian knew that there was a big event at this time, and he immediately reported this matter to Guangxu, who was still reviewing the documents coming and going.

After seeing this information, Guangxu did not immediately make a suggestion, but took out another piece of information, and at this time, the information sent by the National Security Bureau only had two pieces of information. Article 1; The Tsarist government began to recruit female soldiers, and there were two regiments in total. Article 2; The price of bread in St. Petersburg is now twenty times higher than it was before the war, and the price is rising!

Shang Rongqian couldn't understand what information was here!

Guangxu said; "The recruitment of female soldiers shows that there are no longer as many fighters in Tsarist Russia as there used to be. The price of bread has been rising, and there is a trend of increase, which shows that the Tsarist government has not yet implemented price controls, but it is on the verge of collapse! ”

Shang Rongqian looked at Guangxu and still didn't understand what the emperor had to say!

Guangxu spoke again; "Russia won't last long, but it will be some time before it succumbs, so we still can't rush!"

Shang Rongqian said; "Your Majesty! With all due respect, our situation is also very crisis, and the anti-war wave in the country is also very large, and now there are strikes in many of our munitions factories, and the living standards of the workers have not been significantly improved, but the spirit of work is very big now! ”

Guangxu said; "The number of strikes has still increased, this problem must be viewed from two aspects, in fact, this is also a thing that must be taken into account when improving work efficiency, my chief of staff, you must remember one thing!"

All the improvement and development in our world is the improvement and improvement of efficiency, we must know that people's time and money, land, wisdom have his unique price, so we must pay attention to the use of people's time, in the shortest time, do the most things, this is an important aspect of efficiency improvement!

Rong Shangqian seems to understand a little!

But now the most important thing has been placed in front of him, what to do with the matter of the Okhotsk fortress! With the current strength of this fortress, it must not be able to stop Ruitsev's attack!

Guangxu saw Shang Rongqian speak; "Why should we resist you! I know I can't beat it, but I still have to fight! You're stupid! ”

Shang Rongqian stared at Guangxu with a pair of big eyes and said; "Your Majesty, it's been less than twenty days since we got this fortress back! And we have prepared a lot of supplies and munitions for the defense of this fortress, and once we retreat, there will be nothing left! ”

Guangxu looked at this lovely chief of staff and said; "You must understand that at no time do you make unnecessary sacrifices, immediately let the entire 702nd Division retreat in an orderly manner, destroy everything that cannot be taken away, and it would be better if you could leave some gifts for these Cossacks along the way. And immediately sent Fang Ruxin's Ninth Army along the way to respond, the purpose was only to delay the pace of the Russian offensive!

And ordered all the other fortresses to be scouted properly, to understand what this Ruitsev was going to do, in my opinion this old fellow must be crazy!

Lose your marbles!

Shang Rongqian didn't understand Guangxu's statement!

Guangxu said; "This old guy is taking all his army to make a bet with me! He plans to attack Astana with all his army, and his goal this time is me, the emperor!

Shang Rongqian said; "This guy is really delusional!"

Guangxu said; "It's not delusional, as long as his eastward movement is fast enough, he has a chance to achieve it, and he has a large number of troops and can withstand general losses, his main point is to be fast, as long as he takes me and Astana City, he will also have the qualifications to negotiate with the Huaxia Empire!"

Shang Rongqian said; "Isn't he afraid of failure!"

Guangxu said: "This is the cleverness of this old man, it seems that he knows that the defeat must be the final result of the Russian army, it may be that the damage caused to him by our army before is too great, so it caused Ruitsev to be desperate!" ”

Shang Rongqian said; "Then we just need to slow him down, so he can't achieve his strategy!"

Guangxu said; "It's not that easy, this time the Russian ministers will definitely be much more violent than before, and they will definitely give all their lives for the final victory!"

Shang Rongqian said; "I immediately ordered the 701st and 703rd Divisions. Immediately after the passage of Ruitsev's army, the fortress of Okhotsk was captured, so that it became like a situation of closing the door and beating the dogs, and we would not be a big pocket, so that this Ruitsev would not return! ”

Guangxu said; "My general, I don't treat you well! Are you helping me? ”

Shang Rongqian looked at Guangxu very incomprehensibly and said; "Your Majesty! The last general will not dare! ”

Guangxu said; "Haven't you heard of the Last Stand!"

Fight to the death!......

Zhao Bin, the commander of the 702nd Division in the Gatomusco Fortress, was already determined to die, and when he knew that there were not 100,000 Russian troops in front of him, but 1 million Russian troops, he knew that the time had come to kill himself.

He was originally an officer in the Navy, but later the Army University was established, which required a lot of instructors, so he was transferred to the Army University, and then it was the era of the great expansion of the Chinese Empire, and many teachers brought their students to the battlefield, and took students while fighting.

I'm afraid that this is the unique feature of the Chinese Empire!

The Army University also hired a lot of instructors from the United States and Germany, and these people also came to the army, Zhao Bin is also learning from these foreign instructors, while teaching his own students, in the great expansion of the army, he was first the battalion commander, with the gradual expansion of the army, he is now also a brigadier general, and is also the commander of an integrated division.

Many trainee officers in the entire division are his students, in order to avoid suspicion, these officers will be assigned to other armies after graduation, but now these are still his students, and when he encounters such a powerful opponent, Zhao Bin knows that he must not evade the responsibility of a soldier because of fear, show courage, and must not lose face in front of students, even if it is death, he must be calm and calm!
