——————————

Yang Chao wants to kill Tukhachevsky, but he is not so easy to be killed, mainly because Yang Chao's fist is not hard enough, if he can use the national strength of the whole of China, it will be as easy to shoot Tukhachevsky as a dog.

But in order to play the game of doing business with guns, Yang Chao had to keep China shooting and forcing Soviet Russia to keep handing over industrial orders to China.

Therefore, Yang Chao can only rely on his own strength, and the strength in his hands is now only 300,000 troops, of which only 100,000 Chinese veterans and 100,000 Japanese veterans have combat effectiveness.

An army of 100,000 Chinese veterans and reserve officers had already fought the Soviet army in Jima under the command of Zhang Zuolin. The 100,000 Japanese volunteers had just arrived in Irkutsk, and they were to be tasked with forming a second line of positions in Irkutsk.

There were volunteers in Japan, how could there be no in Korea, they also had 100,000 people who "volunteered" to join the Tsar Knights.

In addition, there are 1,000 Ryukyu soldiers, 900 Siamese soldiers, and 78 Filipino volunteers.

Among them, the soldiers of Ryukyu and other countries also came to fight soy sauce, and they themselves knew that they were just selling Yang Chao a face, Yang Chao recruited troops to protect his wife, and it was not good for Eastern countries not to give face.

The most face-saving for Yang Chao is obviously Ryukyu, this country was established when Yang Chao was in power, plus it is the king's poisonous vegetables, with strong personal feelings, saying that gratitude may have passed, but it is true to be grateful;

Siam is influenced by both Indian and Chinese cultures, of which Indian culture is the main culture, and it does not have as strong oriental characteristics as Japan and other countries, so it gives Yang Chao face, but not much, after all, Yang Chao is not the president of China.

The Philippine political elite has very ambivalent feelings about China, on the one hand, China has driven out the Americans and made the Philippines a country that stands up, on the other hand, without the Americans, in addition to the so-called 'freedom', the Filipinos are still economically poor and free of oppression by American businessmen, but the competition of Chinese businessmen still makes Filipino businessmen have little right to speak, so there is always an anti-Chinese sentiment in the country.

That's why 78 people from the Philippines came, and all of them were Chinese, because their government didn't interfere at all, and these people really came voluntarily.

On the contrary, Japan and North Korea have contributed a lot, and each of them has sent 100,000 people, which can play a big role under the pretense of volunteering.

The Japanese weighed it for several days before they began to "allow" their nationals to volunteer to join the Tsar's Knights after Germany and France, but there is no need to delve into what kind of permission law this "permission" is, anyway, there are a large number of officers in the countryside, that is, reserve officers.

There are a large number of local officers and a group of veterans who have experienced the war, so that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese volunteer soldiers is quite strong, and in terms of personal military quality, it is no worse than the army led by Zhang Zuolin.

Although the combat quality of the Korean army is not as strong as that of the Japanese army, it also has a certain amount of military training, and it is generally younger, and its feelings for Yang Chao are closer than those of the Japanese.

Li Fanzao is Jin Jiu's henchman When Jin Jiu established the government-in-exile in Shanghai, Li Fanzao, who was only 15 years old, came to him from Yunnan Jiangwutang, and then went all the way to the top, but he was too young, so in terms of promotion, Jin Jiu pressed him, although the official positions he held were not high, but they were all real positions, such as the current position is the commander of the Seoul garrison.

In his capacity, he was not suitable to openly lead the North Korean "Volunteer Army" to fight, so he came incognito and took the pseudonym Che Fan Long.

This is more cunning than the Japanese approach, the Japanese just let the reserve officers and soldiers 'volunteer' to come to Siberia, and the Koreans pretended to let the regular army participate, the first is to put too much emphasis on suppressing the Japanese, and the second is to take the opportunity to train the Korean army, after all, unlike the Japanese army, North Korea does not have the experience of large-scale war of the regular army, with the help of this opportunity to train the army, plus the relationship with Yang Chao, and at the same time cultivate Li Fan-seo, a loyal henchman, Jin Jiu's move can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

This is the 300,000 troops that Yang Chao has at hand, and more than 100,000 people have already arrived in the Ryukyus, including French, British, Americans, and Germans. Yang Chao organized this group of people into a group army and hired a large number of retired officers during the First World War, which should be said to have good combat effectiveness.

Of course, this is far from the total number of people in the world who have signed up to defend the Tsar, and the influence of the Tsar is not so low, and there are also more than 100,000 Russians, Ukrainians and other ethnic groups under the rule of former Tsarist Russia who have joined the army, but they have not yet arrived in the Ryukyus, because these people are mainly from Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Finland and other countries that have been established from Tsarist Russia, and they are hundreds or thousands of kilometers away from Ryukyu and other countries such as Germany.

These people will also be organized into a group army, and the combat effectiveness should not be low, as a country established from the rule of the tsar, there should not be so many people loyal to the tsar, these people signed up, largely because these people have a background of persecution by Soviet Russia, more than eighty percent of them are peasants who fled to neighboring countries during the ****** period of the Vladimir era, and all families have relatives who died of famine and the suppression of the Red Guards of Soviet Russia, and Soviet Russia is a bitter enemy, Most of the rest are the descendants of the small and medium-sized nobles and capitalists who fled Russia because of the October Revolution, and they also have a bitter hatred with Soviet Russia.

As long as it drags on for a month, these people will also come to the Ryukyus, and Yang Chao's troops will increase by seventy, so Yang Chao is not in a hurry to find Tukhachevsky for a decisive battle, of course, the main reason is that he can't beat others.

Therefore, Yang Chao only handed over the first Chinese volunteers who came to Siberia to Zhang Zuolin, and asked them to stop the Soviet army in Jima, while the Japanese army supported Jima as a reserve at any time, and only the Korean army was left in Irkutsk to be deployed.

The reason for this plan is not that they love North Korea too much, but because the North Koreans send out a regular army, and the regular army has an air force that is difficult to train.

The air force is extremely important in this war, the reason why the Soviet army can go so smoothly is that they have the advantage of the air force, after the first industrial plan, Soviet Russia established a complete heavy industry system, with the manufacturing capacity of aircraft and tanks, tanks not to mention for the time being, in this war, Soviet Russia has always given priority to the air force, once there is no fuel, the tank can break down, but it must be guaranteed that the plane can take off.

Therefore, the priority of aircraft was above the tank, not to mention the artillery that was still behind the tank, which led to the fact that in the war, Soviet Russian aircraft and tanks had a one-sided advantage, but in terms of artillery, they were inferior to Kolchak's army.

The reason why they value aircraft so much is because they have suffered losses.

The Russian nation is a magical nation, they have never stood in a culturally and economically developed position in history, including the Tsarist period, although ruled by Russia, but the economy of the surrounding Finland, Poland and other countries is more developed than Russia, culturally Russian culture can not be ignored, but it has never been able to become the mainstream, as for the Russian fashion that appeared in Paris after the October Revolution, it is French culture, but the Russian culture is incorporated into the French fashion as a symbol.

Militarily, however, the Russian nation has been on the rise since it came to prominence under the Mongol occupation.

It is difficult to imagine a country that is a generation behind other countries in terms of technological level and always remain strong in the military sphere, and the reason why the Russians were able to do this is a lot of analysis in later generations. Some people focus on the fierce culture of the Russian nation, and the army culture represented by the Cossacks has a large number of Mongolian military traditions, so some people believe that Russia's military strength is due to the barbaric temperament of the nomads; Others believe that it was the Russian Empire that had the population that was always able to crush the countries of Europe.

But this does not explain why Russia, tainted with the habits of the Mongols, was able to defeat the Mongols, nor why they were able to crush Europe with their population, while the Chinese population was even larger, but they were reduced to the point of the sick man of East Asia.

One of the things that everyone ignores, consciously or unconsciously, is that in the field of military technology, the Russian nation has a keen sense of smell and talent that other peoples do not have.

Not to mention that when the Mongol 'masters' on their heads were still wielding sabers, the Russians imported arquebuses from Western Europe in large quantities, and gradually gained an advantage in the confrontation with the Mongols.

Just in modern times, when the Germans were still using the Maxim water-cooled machine gun, the engineers of the Tsar Arsenal developed the air-cooled heavy machine gun M1910, which was a machine gun with small iron wheels that could be dragged and bulletproof steel plates, which still played a great role in the battlefield of World War II.

The application of tanks was noted during the tsarist period, but unfortunately because of backward vehicle manufacturing technology, they only made a few armored vehicles. But in the era of Soviet Russia, after their technical capabilities were enhanced, they developed the T34, which was more advanced than the German tank.

Obviously, no matter how you look at it, Germany's scientific and technological strength is far superior to that of Soviet Russia, but until the end of the war, Germany did not develop a heavy tank that could directly confront the T34, and the heavy Tiger tank did not have an advantage over the Soviet and Russian heavy tanks.

This characteristic of the Russians will be maintained for a long time, and when it comes to the jet age, when the Soviet Union and Russia lag behind Europe and the United States in basic technology, they can use their strong integration capabilities to produce jet fighters that are not inferior to Europe and the United States.

This talent is the only one in the world that has no other branch.

The ability to develop weapons is only one aspect, and the other is the talent of the Russians in the use of weapons.

The most famous tactic in World War II was the German blitzkrieg, but the Soviet Russia's tactics of great depth were no less than the blitzkrieg in the use of mechanized troops. On the other hand, Britain invented the tank, and France, which had a stronger tank manufacturing capacity and level than Germany, never understood how to correctly use modern weapons, resulting in Britain and France's weapons and equipment being far less famous than the Soviet, American and German countries during World War II.

It was because of this talent for the use of weapons that they were always able to find the correct way to use the most advanced weapons, so the Tsar was the first country to be equipped with the Maxim machine gun, and the first country to use tanks on a large scale.

Their emphasis on aircraft is precisely the effect of this talent, and there are also reasons why they have suffered losses in the past.

At that time, Yang Chao almost bombed Moscow with an airship, and since then, the Russians have been obsessed with airplanes.

In the era of Soviet Russia, they established a large-scale aircraft factory in their first five-year plan, becoming one of the countries with the highest aircraft production in the world, and in this war, Kolchak's air force was always suppressed and could not raise their heads, which allowed them to attack and pursue calmly.

If there is no air superiority, let alone an offensive, it is impossible for them to reach the Central Siberian Plateau just by marching, because it is impossible for them to walk thousands of miles on foot in the ice and snow at minus 40 degrees, and they can get here because they use the transportation of the Trans-Siberian Railway, if there is no air superiority, how can they calmly repair the railway bridges one by one?

Therefore, Soviet Russia attached great importance to the air force, which made the Soviet army really lucky.

But now their good fortune is over, because Yang Chao pays more attention to the Air Force and has better aircraft. (To be continued.) )
