Cheryakov has always believed that defecting to the United States is the most unreliable thing, but after the official declaration of war on Russia, Cheryakov first thought of the United States. [Full text reading]

6 a.m. is equivalent to Republic time. The sky over Moscow has not yet brightened. Cheryakov had just finished dealing with the emergency and had a hotline with US President Duchway.

Although Russia's military satellite system has been completely destroyed and the civilian satellite system has been completely paralyzed, the US-Russia brain hotline has a total of five communication channels, namely, two military satellite communication lines, two civilian satellite communication lines, and one Atlantic submarine cable communication line, of which the submarine cable communication line has the highest degree of secrecy. It is also the least vulnerable to destruction, and is naturally the most important communication line, so after the communication satellite is paralyzed, Cheryakov can still contact Duchway, and does not have to rely on American communication satellites.

The two presidents talked only about two things: whether and when the United States should go to war.

It is conceivable that the direct talks between the top leaders of the two countries did not reach a conclusion. As mentioned earlier, although the US-Russia secret alliance treaty seems to be equal, it is actually beneficial to Russia, because the possibility of the United States being invaded is certainly much smaller than that of Russia, especially when the republic is the common hypothetical enemy, Russia will definitely take the brunt, but judging from the relevant information disclosed later, the secret alliance treaty does not clarify the meaning of "invaded".

And so it goes. The circumstances under which it is "invaded" is a matter of debate.

Take, for example, the situation of the moon: Cheryakov believes that Russia has been invaded. Because the Russian mainland was bombed, a number of strategic facilities were destroyed, and evidence of the "invasion" of Russia by the republic was also held. i.e. cruise missiles that landed on the territory of Russia without exploding, and combat aircraft that crashed on the territory of Russia; Duchway, on the other hand, believes that Russia has only been attacked militarily. There was no invasion, because the republican ** team was several can. It also refers to the fact that the army has not entered Russia. It did not occupy iconic locations such as Russian towns, jams, and transportation hubs, let alone engage the Russian army head-on, and therefore did not invade Russia.

Duchway's reply made Cheryakov furious.

The problem is, Dudgway doesn't have a choice.

Although the United States and Russia signed a secret alliance treaty. And the treaty did not violate American law, that is, it was supported by the main functional committees and leading members of Congress, but "a secret alliance treaty." The biggest difference from the "formal alliance treaty" is the condition at the time of fulfillment, that is, the treaty must be honored. It must be recognized by Congress again. such a system. Originally, it was for secrecy, after all, if the secret alliance treaty was brought to the Diet for discussion, it would definitely become no secrets. And that's exactly what happened. Most secret alliance treaties are ambiguous on key issues, such as manipulating the meaning of specific words. This is also done in order to leave a way out and avoid being controlled by others. In short, if Duchway wants to give Cheliakov a positive answer, he must first seek the support of the Congress, or only after the support of the Congress, can he give an answer.

In the hotline, Du Qiwei also made it clear that he would give a clear answer as soon as possible.

In fact, at the time of his hotline call with Cheryakov, the presidents of the Senate and House of Representatives. Party leaders, chairmen of major functional committees, and a number of highly qualified and prestigious lawmakers have already received calls from the White House secretary and are rushing over one after another.

It was also at this time that the Navy of the Republic attacked the main military base of the Russian Pacific Fleet.

From the circular study to the conference room, just a few dozen steps, Du Qiwei walked for several minutes.

As one of the few presidents in U.S. history who entered politics after becoming a general and entered the White House, Dudgway's military talent surpassed that of any U.S. general. Although the intelligence is very limited and the situation is still not very clear, the series of strikes launched by the Republican ** team on the US side late at night after dawn have greatly exceeded Duchway's expectations. It doesn't even fit in with his vision at all.

The battle before dawn, so to speak. It shocked Duchway and relieved him.

What shocked him was that the weapons systems in the national strategic defense system of the Republic of China that were extremely advanced and far superior to those of the United States, especially the "regional laser interception system" aimed at the Russian army's air-launched cruise missiles and the strike system aimed at Russian strategic nuclear submarines, were thunderous and extremely accurate, and the US national missile defense system was even more out of reach. Fortunately, the Republic's strategic defense and strategic strike operations were basically in Duchway's predictions, especially before dawn, and the bombing campaign against Russia's nuclear weapons and nuclear material depots, even if the means were a bit shocking, the timing and results of the strikes were not much different from Duchway's expectations. Because Russia has basically lost its nuclear counterattack capability, even if there are still some tactical nuclear weapons, it will be difficult to break through the republic's national strategic defense system and theater missile defense system, so the republic has no reason to carry out a nuclear strike on Russia, and it will not escalate the war.

The battle after the jade light made Du Qiwei incomprehensible.

A full-scale strategic strike on Russia. And there is nothing wrong with striking the air defense system first, even if Duchway is asked to plan and command, he will arrange it this way. The reason is very simple: After the completion of the reduction work in the first two phases of the "London Treaty," the strategic forces of various countries have been greatly weakened, and the mold of the war-fighting aircraft fleet has shrunk, and it has become difficult for the "strategic air force" to undertake the task of "warehouse." Tactical aviation must be deployed as soon as possible, and in order for tactical aviation to carry out strategic strike missions, it is first necessary to destroy the enemy's air defense system, especially the air defense system in the theater with an interception range of more than 1,000 meters. Although tactical fighters are also equipped with some long-range ammunition with a range of more than four thousand meters, some tactical cruise missiles have even a range of more than four! Milk kilometers, but these ammunition are either limited in power or expensive. Moreover, the number of reserves is very limited, so in the early stage of the war, if strategic aviation is used to carry out conventional strike missions, its main task is to make full use of the long strike distance. Concentrate on tearing through the enemy's air defense network and opening access channels for tactical aviation.

The problem is that the direction of the republic's strategic strike is not Siberia, but the Far East.

At the beginning of the year, as the signs of the war became more and more obvious, Du Qiwei organized the senior generals of the Joint Staff Council to make a rough analysis of the situation in the early days of the war, focusing on the mainland battlefield. Some may think that this is redundant. The computer technology of the United States is no worse than that of the Republic, and it is even more advanced, and it is entirely possible to use computers to simulate and analyze the war situation and the war situation. Objectively speaking, the results of computer simulation analysis are very accurate, but no one can deny it. No amount of advanced computer can simulate the actual combat experience of soldiers.

The conclusion of this analysis is that as long as China and Russia carry out, the army of the republic will storm Siberia.

The reason couldn't be simpler, the Siberian region, especially the southern part of the West Siberian Plain, which stretches from Tyumen to Novosibirsk for more than four kilometers, because there is only one main railway line, and the influence of the Imgat swamps makes the defense of the region very weak, as long as the Republican ** team can capture any of these transport hubs, it can cut off the communication line from the European region to the Far East. Because the Russian Far East does not have a complete industrial system and does not have a large enough population, it will soon fall into the hands of the republic after the European region is cut off. According to the Chief of Staff of the Army, Blucher, the Republic can, if it so wishes, send the world's largest reserve and militia units to occupy the Far East after the occupation of Tyumen or Novosibirsk.

Although Du Qiwei is not so "pessimistic", he also believes that Pei Chengyi will focus on the Central Asian battlefield.

To put it objectively, only by quickly defeating Russia will the republic be able to move out of the Pacific Ocean. Compete with the United States for global hegemony. If we take into account the secret alliance of the United States with Russia. It should be before the United States completes its mobilization for the war. Concentrate superior forces to defeat Russia, eliminate the threat behind it, and then turn east and south. According to Du Qiwei's estimate, as long as the republican ** team can take control of Central Asia first. Sending troops to Siberia and cutting off the main arteries of the Russian Eurasian plate, as mentioned earlier, is likely to end the continental war within a year. At most, it's a few months. If this is the case, it is very likely that the United States will not have time to save Russia.

What's more, Dudgway always believed. The reality must have been worse than he had predicted.

In his opinion, no matter what, Pei Chengyi would definitely take the United States' entry into the war into account and formulate a war plan according to the most unfavorable situation for the republic. Judging from the actual situation, if the United States enters the war after the start of the Sino-Russian war, with the social system of the United States, it will be able to complete the basic war mobilization within half a year, and complete the comprehensive mobilization within a year and a half. This is because after the completion of the basic war mobilization, the United States' military production capacity will be exposed, and it will be able to continuously provide weapons and equipment and war materials to its allies, becoming the number one arms supplier to the Western bloc, and Russia will become the biggest beneficiary. So as to obtain the material basis for persisting in fighting, so in Pei Chengyi's opinion. It is necessary to strive to defeat Russia within half a year. The war potential of the United States must not be allowed to change the outcome of a continental war.

If this is the case, the republican ** team will have to concentrate its forces on attacking Siberia.

The problem is that the strategic strike of the republic focused on the Russian Far East.

Before the Republican Navy struck the naval base of the Russian Pacific Fleet, Duchway also believed that it was just the Republican ** team attacking the west.

It is also well understood that the Southern Western Siberian Corridor is so important that it is impossible for the Russian authorities not to know about it and not to take it lightly. Back in. Fall at the beginning of the year. The Russian army began to strengthen the defensive line from Tyumen to Novosibirsk in an orderly manner, and upgraded Yekaterinburg and Kemerovo to strategic-level military fortresses, with the support of the two places, expanding the defensive depth of Tyumen and Novosibirsk. In the center of this defensive line, Omsk is the key of the key, and it is also a strategic point where the Russian army has the most troops.

According to the information obtained by the US authorities, around July of this year, the strength of the Russian army in Omsk increased to about 10,000, and there were also enough weapons and equipment to arm the Blade 10,000 army. Although most of the weapons in the stock are individual weapons such as firearms. But Russia's move is enough to show its strategic intentions.

According to Du Qiwei's judgment, as long as the republican ** team goes north from Central Asia, the Russian army will have to defend Omsk first. It doesn't matter if you can keep it or not. The Russian army will not take the initiative to retreat from Omsk, and the main purpose of the stubborn defense is to delay the pace of the offensive of the republican ** team and buy time for adjusting the defensive deployment.

From the standpoint of the republican ** team, if it is necessary to capture Omsk, it must make a wrong judgment in the attacking army, that is, it believes that the focus is not on Siberia, but in the Xier regionAs long as the Russian army in the southern corridor of Western Siberia begins to move, even if it is a military movement within the theater of operations, the republican ** team can inflict heavy losses on the living forces of the Russian army and lay the foundation for the later offensive. The best result is, of course, for the Russian army in Siberia to move towards the Far East, and to achieve this, the strategy of attacking the west in the early stages of the war will have to be adopted. First of all, we will focus on bombing strategic facilities in the Far East, create the illusion of sending troops to sweep the Far East, and adjust the deployment of the superior Russian army.

Although many people, including some US generals, believe that no army can transport thousands of kilometers in a short period of time and launch a strategic offensive in another direction, even relying on the domestic lines of communication. Dudgway does not disagree with this view, and also believes that the Republican team is unlikely to quickly shift the direction of attack. But one thing must be confirmed, the republican ** team does not need to quickly change the direction of the main attack, as long as it can take Omsk in a surprise way and gain a firm foothold, it is equivalent to opening the door to Siberia, and the Russian army has to concentrate on attacking Omsk, and the Republic Army can take this opportunity to sweep Central Asia, and then march into Siberia in an orderly manner. With the strength of the Republican Army, it is not difficult to start an all-out attack, but it is absolutely impossible to grasp the key points

On the phone with Cheryakov. Duchway mentioned this, hoping that the Russian army would attach great importance to Omsk.

Because Cheryakov was also from a military background. Even if he did not become a general before retiring, he still has a wealth of practical combat experience, so Du Qiwei did not say it clearly, lest the Russian president not be able to step down.

Now the question is, are the actions of the Republican ** in the Far East really a feint?

When reassessing the situation, Dudgway first thought not of the actions of the Republican forces in the Far East, but of the war, especially when the United States would enter the war.

It can be said that this is the most important of the points.

Compared to the United States, the Russian threat is nothing at all. The United States is the number one enemy of the republic, and if Pei Chengyi can't even recognize this, he is not qualified to live in the republic's mansion. With Pei Chengyi's military talents. Once you recognize this, you should know where to focus. In other words, the main task of the Republican ** team is not to defeat the Russian army, which is strong outside the country, but to defeat the powerful American army.

From a strategic point of view, the Pacific Ocean will be the main battlefield between the Republic and the United States.

To put it bluntly, in order to defeat the United States, the Republic must win in the Pacific theater, and for this it is necessary to abandon it in other directions.

If this is the case, the republic's actions in the Russian Far East after the start of the war should not be underestimated.

Although the Russian Pacific Fleet has long since lost its prestige, and it is not even a second-rate fleet, but for the US Navy. The naval base in the Russian Far East is of extraordinary significance. Don't say anything else. If the United States is able to deploy anti-submarine patrol aircraft to naval air stations in the Russian Far East, it will severely limit the activities of the Republic's submarines in the North Pacific, thereby giving the US naval fleet more space to operate in the North Pacific. From a strategic point of view. With Russia in Northeast Asia and Australia in the Southwest Pacific, the United States has formed a pincer encirclement posture against the republic, and the only way for the republic to break the pincer strategic encirclement posture of the United States is to go north, quickly occupy Northeast Asia, and force the United States to use troops in the western and southwestern Pacific.

In other words, it is quite possible that the kingdom of Cele Ho will sweep the Far East before marching into Siberia.

More importantly, the main purpose of the Republican ** team is not to regain lost territory or to crush the Russian army in the Far East, but to control the naval bases in the Far East. And so it goes. The ideal option would not be to attack along road and rail lines, but to attack directly from the sea, that is, to carry out an amphibious landing. Imagine if the marines of the republic managed to land in Petropavlovsk. Having taken control of all Russian naval bases and major ports in the Far East, and advancing the front thousands of kilometers to the northeast, the United States could only use troops in the direction of Guam and Australia. It is also necessary to strengthen the defensive deployment in the direction of Alaska to prevent the Republican ** team from landing on the North American continent. It can be said that as long as it comes to this point, it does not matter whether the republic will land on the North American continent through the northeastern region of Russia. All of them are equivalent to containing hundreds of thousands of US and Canadian troops and achieving the strategic goal of dispersing US forces.

If that were the case, it would be an extraordinary and unexpected war plan.

Surprise has always been the characteristic of Pei Chengyi's use of soldiers.

It can be said that before this, Du Qiwei had considered the situation in this regard, but he always believed that Pei Chengyi was unlikely to take risks in a full-scale war. You know, a world war is not a local war. Any defeat on the main battlefield will have an impact on the overall situation and even lead to defeat. If there is a chance to start over after losing a few local wars, then if you lose a world war, you should never think about turning over.

It was with this thought that Dudgway's heart was particularly heavy.

Whether or not he believed that the Republican team was focused on the Pacific theater, he had to admit it. The situation is much more complicated and dire than previously expected!
