Chapter 298: Friends of the Kingdom of Stan

The Northeast threat theory began to appear in the world, and even the yellow * disaster also had a different meaning. Franco-Russian collusion was expected by Wang Yi, and it was understandable that the British secretly helped. Although the two sides are far apart from each other, the competition between them has already begun. This is no secret, and the British did not hide it, of course, they have not yet reached the point of incompatibility with the Northeast, and therefore they will not completely side with France and Russia.

As for the Americans on the other side of the Pacific, they are not yet the protagonists of the world, although due to the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act, there is also a lot of talk of yellow * misfortune among the people, but business with the Northeast has not been affected.

The Northeast Autonomous Region did not react much to the Huang * curse's claims, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs made several verbal protests. To be honest, Wang Yi didn't care about these claims of the white country at all, and he never had any illusions about them. Before he crossed over, he was not the so-called leading party, and he didn't feel how round the moon was in a foreign country. As for now, Wang Yi is not in a hurry. Under his deliberate arrangement, the Northeast Autonomous Region became friendly with Germany, and now the Northeast has the second largest number of Germans outside of Germany itself, even surpassing Germany's own colonies, with nearly 50,000 people living in the Northeast all year round.

Germany is like a nail in the hearts of Europeans. With Wang Yi's help, Germany's development trend is far better than that of the same period in history, and many technologies that were not available in this era have also begun to be transferred from the northeast to Germany. Although Germany has not yet shown too much ambition to dominate Europe, Wang Yi understands, and Europeans also know that the Germans or the Kaiser will one day not be able to resist their upward desires, and under the joint pressure of the European powers, they will break out of the cocoon and break the net.

More than a month after the Russian army retreated along the Ob River, several countries represented by the British came to the door, hoping to mediate and mediate the war in East Russia. Of course, this is just a nice statement, but in fact, the real purpose is to leave Russia a respite. Although there were contradictions between Britain and Russia, it was also not in Britain's interests to be overly weakened Russia. Because in this way, the rising Germany is only left with France, the defeated former subordinate, to counterbalance, and the effect can be imagined.

Although this kind of behavior of the United Kingdom is like a dog meddling with a mouse in the eyes of Lin Taixi, Wang Yi did not let the British eat the closed door. At present, the world's number one power, face still needs to be given, and I have to say that the chance for the British to come to the door is very good, and Wang Yi will get married.

Although the Eastern Russian front will not stop fighting for this, the Northeast Insurance Team, which is now completely in control of the situation, has carried out several small battles after repelling several counterattacks by the Russians, ending the entire war situation this year. The goal was no longer to move westward, but to clear the remnants of the Russian army to the north.

Now that the time is also at the end of September, the north has begun to become a little cold, compared to Shengjing, which has now become the south, it is still high and cool in autumn.

When Wang Yi walked into the war room of the General Staff, Wang Xiaoxiao, chief of the General Staff, was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Captain, why are you here?" ”

The news of Wang Yi's wedding has spread all over the Northeast, and the wedding committee headed by Li Yuzhen is as tired as a dog all day long, and Wang Xiaoxiao, who was going to watch jokes and have fun in his heart, never expected that the parties to the wedding would come to him today.

"Come and have a look." Wang Yi patted Wang Xiaoxiao's shoulder, and said, "I've been idle for the past two days, I'm walking around, and I'm here for you today." ”

Idle? Walking around? Is this what the bridegroom should say? Wang Xiaoxiao's belly slander for a while, he also understood, Wang Yi was the shopkeeper again.

"How to arrange the wedding, I don't count. Yazhi and they all have their own ideas, anyway, on the day of the wedding, I appeared, and there was a master of ceremonies to guide me, so I could just do it. ”

Wang Yi is such a virtuous person, he doesn't care about the marriage ceremony itself at all, if possible, he can simply invite his family and friends out for a meal. But in this life, his status is too respectful, he doesn't care, others also care. Moreover, he also had to take into account the thoughts of Shen Yazhi's daughters, so with a bullshit attitude of not opposing or participating, he wandered here every day, and he was so idle.

"How's the situation at the front?" After gossiping, Wang Yi asked about business.

"The battle will end in half a month, the Western Route Army is facing the Russian army across the Ob River in the south, and most of the troops of the Eastern Route Army will begin to clear the remnants of the Russian army to the north, and then return to the station."

Wang nodded, and then said: "Now that we have only one enemy left in the east, Japan, we have no preparations for war with them in the short term, plus it is close to the mainland, and it is also very convenient for troops to recruit and train, so I told Xiang Long to let him leave six divisions for Zheng Haitao, otherwise I am worried that the Russians will counterattack next year, and even the whole country will fight against us, and at that time the Western Route Army alone will be a little stretched." ”

Wang Xiaoxiao looked at the map and said: "In winter, our troops will inevitably shrink, otherwise the weather will be cold, and the logistics will be greatly restricted." At the same time, it is also difficult for the Air Force to perform tasks in winter, whether it is an airship or an airplane, the seaworthiness in winter is not good enough. The weakening of air superiority is very serious for us, and the Russians may take the opportunity to attack us with their superiority in numbers, and countermeasures in this regard should be formulated as soon as possible to avoid undue losses. ”

The two discussed for a while, and then Wang Xiaoxiao suddenly said: "Captain, the personnel sent to Kazakhstan before have already replied. This is a telegram from the Intelligence Bureau this morning, you see. ”

With the gradual westward advance of the Russian front, the logistics supply lines of the Northeast Autonomous Region began to gradually lengthen, coupled with the fact that the terrain entered the mountainous area and was far from the mainland, it was difficult to transport steel and cement, so the construction of railways and roads became more and more slow. If there is a logistical problem, the weather is cold and the ground is far away from the homeland, and it is very easy for the military to be unstable. This is not a question of the quality of the will, but the most normal reaction of the human heart. In many cases, it is far more terrible than the enemy, the army is disheartened, there is no cohesion, it will be crushed when it encounters the enemy, and there may even be mutiny.

It is difficult to solve the logistical problem satisfactorily in a short period of time, so in order to prevent the Russians from counterattacking, the most effective way is to create big problems for them. Then a group of Central Asian countries represented by Kazakhstan has become the best choice for the Northeast.
