When Yang Yuanzhao arrived at the railway station, countless vehicles made the railway station extremely busy, and a large number of trains entered, so that the 9 trains of the small station were full of trains, and the camouflage figures were dense and orderly.

"Songpa hasn't set off yet!" Yang Yuanzhao lowered his head and asked.

The staff officer behind him looked at his watch and said with some affirmation: "Division Commander Cai Ye should be the third batch to set off, and their departure time is 13:37!" ”

The departure of the train, the time is accurate to the second, this point, since the beginning of the railway bureau, has been recognized by all personnel, any little stop, the impact on the railway is huge, and even the railway operation map needs to be adjusted.

At this time, it was only 13:20, Yang Yuanzhao looked at the orderly railway station, and sighed with emotion, from the time the order was issued to now, it has only been about 7 hours, the first division has been ready, and even two-thirds of the personnel have already gotten on the train and set off, such a speed, even in the whole world, can be called super fast.

For this speed, Yang Yuanzhao is very satisfied, he still remembers the situation at the time, he just accidentally put forward the concept of fast reversal, which has never been tried, and it has not entered the mainstream military vision's proposal, but it has been recognized by Cai Yi, and he tried to start implementing it in the army. After hard work and perseverance, it has only been less than three months, and it is also decent, the car and train are linked, and the army responds quickly, with today's results, it is estimated that within 8 hours. They were able to leave Baotou for Mongolia.

"Master Cai Ye is over there!" The staff officer said suddenly.

Yang Yuanzhao looked up, and sure enough, in the crowd, he saw Cai Yi's figure, and he was still making a series of arrangements for the map at this time. Giving the order to the guards, he said, "Let's go!" ”，

"Has the liaison with the special forces been established, and what is the situation on the Cullen side!"

"It has been established, but the special forces are in a state of incubation, and are currently targeting targeted individuals. We can only contact them on a fixed day basis! ”

"Then keep calling, keep in touch, we need their help to get into Cullen!"

"Yes!"

"The 1st and 2nd regiments, after entering the Oud. Immediately build an advance position and base camp, and when the third and fourth regiments arrive, march to Kulen! ”

"Yes!" Another communicator received the order and quickly went in the direction of the station.

"Are the remaining artillery regiments and logistical supplies on board?"

"It's almost, it's just that the last reinforcements are a little slower!"

"Let them speed up! How much time is there! ”

After a series of orders were issued, Cai Ye seemed to be a little relieved, they were almost ready, and the advance troops got on the bus. This batch, at the specified time, can also be completed in full. Looking up, I saw Yang Yuanzhao standing next to him with a smile, and saluted and said, "President Yang!" ”

"Very well, it seems that Kulen is sure, but what about Kyakhta?" Yang Yuanzhao nodded and asked.

"Not sure!" Cai Ye said honestly,

"Oh?"

"According to the information we have now, the troops from the Russian Far Eastern Military District and the mainland are a total of 18 divisions. A total of 217,000 men, the native troops had already reached the Urals. It is actively marching towards Chifeng, and the Far Eastern Military District seems to be slowing down. It's still being assembled, but I don't know if we can get to Kyakhta in time after we finish Kulen! Cai Yi smiled bitterly and explained.

Yang Yuanzhao couldn't help but laugh, there was a certain lag in intelligence, and it was thousands of miles away, no one could do anything but pat Cai Ye on the shoulder and said: "Do your best, block the Russian army in Kyakhta as much as possible, at least the Russian army will be held north of Kulun, Baotou, and I will fully support it!" ”

"Yes, mission guaranteed!"

"Fight well, play our Baotou prestige, this is probably the first war with the great powers since 1900, and let them see what the Chinese, the Chinese army looks like!"

After a few words of greetings, the time to board the train came, Yang Yuanzhao didn't say much, stood on the platform to see off, until the train slowly left, Yang Yuanzhao still did not move, the speed of the train was extremely fast, and soon disappeared in the distance of the horizon, for this time the military train line, the railway bureau separately demarcated the section, these military trains are direct, so the average speed will reach 120 kilometers per hour, with the distance from Baotou to Wude, 1200 kilometers, that is, 10 hours, it is estimated that when it arrives, it will be late at night. 、

The first division, at a faster speed than planned, went to Mongolia, but Russia dispatched a total of 18 divisions and 210,000 troops, one division is definitely not enough, and the follow-up troops must follow, he turned around and asked: "How is the second division prepared!" ”

In the first army, only the first division is a fast reaction force, they are also the fastest, it only took more than 7 hours, they have already assembled from the camp and set off, and even with the army, there are enough munitions to support 3 high-intensity battles, their weight occupies half of the carriage, if you add Yang Yuanzhao's secret storage zài Kulun and trading city, it is basically enough, but the second division and the third division are different, although they have also carried out relevant training, they are not as targeted as the first division, according to the outline of conduct, They were able to assemble in 24 hours, which is not bad.

The staff officer's face showed a slight embarrassment, and then said: "Within 36 hours, I will definitely be able to go!" ”

"Okay, let them speed up, it is estimated that when the second division arrives in Kulun, it can take over the first division, it seems that it will be hard work!" Yang Yuanzhao sighed and said, Cai Ye is indeed hard, he not only needs to help the special forces solve Kulun, and then needs to use the fastest speed to go to Kyakhta, at most only 2 days in Kulen, that is to say, within a week, the battle of more than 2,000 kilometers, facing the armies of the great powers, whether it is the Russian native troops who arrive first, or the Far Eastern Military District that arrives first, they are all Russian regular troops, and they are the regular army that has not been hastily expanded after World War I, and its strength has been greatly reduced. Yang Yuanzhao is very aware of the great pressure encountered.

Sent away the first division, the second and third divisions are also preparing quickly, the work of Baotou is complicated, this is not a quick war, nor is it a movement war, in a certain way, the Kulen counterinsurgency is just the beginning, the real test is still to come, against the huge Russia, it is destined to be a protracted war.

Russia, even if it lost the Russo-Japanese War, but in the Russo-Japanese War, the appearance of the Russian regular army was still very strong, and Baotou could not be like Japan, directly fighting the number of people, once the elite forces were finished, how could Baotou resist Beiyang and the revolutionary party, so it was necessary to let the war return to what Baotou was best at.

What is Baotou best at, fixed warfare, defensive warfare, with the help of stable fortifications, to resist the opponent's superior forces, Kulen is not a big city itself, and because the position of the Mongolian prince is strong here, so there is no way to start, but the trading city of the entire merchant city is different, it is a merchant's city, which is for trade.

Baotou, from the very beginning of the development, is to a business channel development-based, whether it is the Jin Shang eight families, or later joined, are all looking at the face of business opportunities, the trading city as a contact with Russia, and even the port of trade, of course, is the focus of his development, it seems to be the same as before the trading city, in fact, has been laid out by him in advance, if the first division can arrive, the use of these defensive means, plus the emergency construction of the position, the trading city will become an unbreakable position, Then the basis of this battle has been determined, if not, in the prairie, fighting a sports war, although Baotou may not suffer losses, but this loss will be great, and it will even affect the development of the northwest, which Yang Yuanzhao absolutely does not want to see.

Thousands of miles away, even two or three thousand miles away, even Yang Yuanzhao is beyond his reach, and he can only expect a qiē shun lì, and next, what he needs to ensure is more motor vehicles, a war of hundreds of thousands of people, and the war materials needed are massive, this is the first time that the war is not carried out under the support system of Baotou, in a sense, the pressure on logistics is huge, from Baotou to Wude, because of the railway, it doesn't matter, even to Kulun, also because of the highway, It can be guaranteed, but from Kulen to Kyakhta, it is all ordinary roads of Sanhetu, the only good thing is that this war is fought in spring, and the Mongolian steppe in spring does not have so much rain, otherwise, under a heavy rain, logistics will be directly cut off.

Or, try the tractor, Yang Yuanzhao's heart, suddenly came up with such an idea, in the uneven, not even many people on the prairie, in addition to camels and horses, only crawler machinery can be relatively stable, it stands to reason that the number of tractors in Baotou is quite large, and the tractors produced by the tractor factory are enough, but the distance is a dead hole, and the railway can transfer tractors, but the railway is only to Ud, 550 kilometers away from Kulen, this distance, It's definitely not a small number, plus the hundreds of kilometers from Kulen to Kyakhta, and under the thousands of miles, there are even more problems that may arise.

In any case, logistics must be guaranteed, and there needs to be foresight, and even a margin guarantee, Yang Yuanzhao knows that the first army is the elite force of Baotou, but it has lost its logistics support, and their strength has been reduced by at least seven or eight percent, and with half of their strength, they can fight hard with Russia's superior forces, which is absolutely unacceptable.
