Chapter 782: We're at War One

readx; The Republic of Russia is not the same as North Korea, although the DPRK is proficient, but it is actually a puppet state, and even the command of its own Korean defense forces is in the hands of China, while the Russian Republic is not. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Although the Russian Republic has been more dependent on China's support over the years, this dependence is not only reflected in the economy, but also in the military, including the need to buy a large number of advanced equipment from China and the need for China's help in the Central Asian region, but this dependence has not made the Russian Republic lose its autonomy, and their relationship with China at this moment is more like an ally.

Over the years, the Republic of Russia has always been weakening its dependence on China, which can be seen from the Republic of Russia's vigorous development of its own defense industry, although the current defense industry of the Republic of Russia is not very good, but it still has a relatively systematic industry, which can produce T9 tanks and F4 fighters through technology licensing and import of important parts, and the T9 tanks and F4 fighters equipped in the Republic of Russia are imported in addition to the whole machine in the early stage. In addition to these advanced weapons, some relatively light technology equipment can also be produced, military trucks, imitation T8 light tanks, various types of artillery and guns.

The fact that the Russian Republic is reducing its dependence on China can be seen as the Russian Republic is trying to reduce China's influence on them, and this opposition to China's stationing of troops in the Russian hinterland can be seen.

During the Russian Civil War, Chinese troops were stationed in almost all of Russia, and when the Russian Defense Forces were fighting on the front line, the work of counter-guerrilla warfare, maintaining local law and order, and important supply lines in the rear was undertaken by Chinese troops, but since the twenties, China has successively withdrawn its troops from the Russian hinterland, and by the thirties, China actually did not have troops stationed in the Russian hinterland. At present, among the Chinese troops stationed in Russia, the main force is the Fifth Army stationed in the Omsk direction, and the Fifth Army is actually not many in number, and most of them are stationed in the area south of Omsk, and on the whole, it extends from Omsk to Astana in Kazakhstan in the south, which is the main line of defense of the Fifth Army. South of Astana in Kazakhstan and extending south to Lake Balkhash and further south to the border with Afghanistan, roughly within the territory of the future State of Tajikistan, this long area served as the line of defense of the Fourth Army.

Omsk and the defensive line north of Omsk are the responsibility of the Russian Defense Forces, and the area east of Omsk, that is, the hinterland of the Russian Republic, including the area along the Trans-Siberian Railway, is no longer occupied by Chinese troops.

According to the armistice agreement signed between China and Soviet Russia in 1940, although the border line was not demarcated, only the name of the military control zone was used, and the division of the control area of Central Asia and Russia was based on the actual military control area of each country. The Siberian region is divided by Omsk, and to the east of Omsk, the region including Omsk is controlled by the Russian Republic, and with Omsk as the base point, the dividing line between Soviet Russia and the Russian Republic generally extends in a straight line to the north and south.

In Central Asia, the Kazakh region, it stretches south from Omsk to Astana and then to Karaganda, then continues slightly southeasterly to Moint in the northwest of Lake Balkhash, then slightly southwest to Taraz, then continues south to Newmangan and all the way south to the Afghan border. This line is the dividing line between Soviet Russia and China. To the west was the Russian-controlled zone, and to the east was the Chinese-controlled zone, with several major cities such as Astana and Tashkent under Russian control, while Karaganda, as well as Taraz and Newmangan in the south of Astana, were controlled by China.

The section of the Central Asian Railway located in the Chinese-controlled area is naturally controlled by China, and this section of the railway is also the most important supply line of the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army stationed in Central Asia and Siberia, which is called the Xintajir Railway by China, starting from the city of Novosibirsk in Russia, connecting the Trans-Siberian Railway and extending south to the eastern part of Lake Balkhash, connecting the Northwest Railway of China, and then continuing south to Almaty, and then turning west to reach Taraz. In addition, in order to further strengthen the supply capacity of the Central Asian garrison, China's Northwest Railway actually did not stop in the country, and continued to extend to the northwest after the Alashan Pass, and continued to build westward after Akdouka connected the new Tata Railway, along the north bank of Balkhash Lake to Mointe. This section is called the Amor line, which is a normal railway that belongs to the extension of the Northwest Railway, and after Moint, there is a section of the military railway to the north to Karaganda, this section of the railway is located near the Sino-Soviet military confrontation line, and China does not plan to build it too well, that is, a railway is built according to the standard of the military temporary railway, called the Moka line, and there is also a section of the military temporary railway from Moint to the south.

The Chinese garrison in Central Asia is basically a branch along these railways, among which the Xintajik Railway, the Northwest Railway intersection of Akkara has become an extremely important strategic transportation point, of which the Akkara Railway Station is the busiest in the Northwest Region, but also the most heavily guarded railway station, it can be said that this area is the base camp of China's garrison in Central Asia and Siberia, not only heavily guarded but also hoarded nearly a large amount of military supplies, And the headquarters of the Fourth Army was stationed in Akkara.

The armistice agreement signed between China and Soviet Russia in 1940 divided the military control areas of the two sides, but it did not involve the scope of sovereignty. An armistice is an armistice, but the issue of sovereignty is generally unnegotiable, and there is no other way to resolve it than war.

According to the Treaty of Nanjing, signed between China and the Russian Republic over the years, especially the most important Sino-Russian treaty of Nanjing, it does not say that this large area of Central Asian territory controlled by China is divided into China.

On the face of it, these Chinese-controlled territories are territories claimed by both the Soviet Union and the Russian Republic, which has been trying to recover them from China. (PS: For the situation in Central Asia, if you need a more intuitive understanding, you can go to the Q group 35923224 group to share and view the situation map of Central Asia)

But Chen Jingyun will not be a fool, naturally he will not give these territories directly to the Russian Republic, you must know that this territory is small, the most important thing is the new tower line railway, if this railway is controlled by the Russian Republic, then it means that China's huge troops stationed in Central Asia and Siberia have lost direct contact with the mainland, and this kind of thing will naturally not be allowed.

For many years, the Russian Republic has been trying to regain control of these territories through diplomatic means, and China is unwilling, so this contradiction naturally arises, but in the past, because the Russian Republic also wanted China to help fight against Soviet Russia, even if the administrative power of these territories was withdrawn, in fact, the Russian Republic did not have enough troops to defend. China had to defend itself, so it didn't hold on.

But the current world situation is not the same as before, especially after Germany attacked Soviet Russia, Soviet Russia was defeated so quickly and so quickly, almost everyone thought that Soviet Russia would never be able to survive this winter in the German offensive, and it was estimated that even Moscow would have to be occupied by the Germans before the winter came.

In this case, the Russian Republic has finally made its own choice!

Before Germany attacked Soviet Russia, not only did Germany secretly negotiate an alliance with China, but they also approached the Russian Republic, and the negotiations between Germany and any Russian Republic were much smoother, because the two had a common interest link, and they both wanted to defeat Soviet Russia.

Moreover, in order to allow the Russian republics to send troops, the Germans gave very favorable conditions, that is, Germany only occupied the European part of Soviet Russia, that is, Poland and some regions of Belarus and eastern Ukraine, and the rest could be given to the Russian Republic.

The people of the Russian Republic are not stupid, they know that these conditions are only lip service, and in the end how to distribute them depends on the number of occupied areas of the two sides, if the Germans can preemptively occupy Moscow and the Caucasus, unless Hitler loses his mind and goes crazy will they cede them to the Russian Republic. But these are irrelevant, the important thing is that the Russian Republic will flank Soviet Russia together with Germany, and this is the most important thing.

After Germany attacked Soviet Russia, Germany's strong combat effectiveness made the Russian Republic ecstatic and worried at the same time, because they were afraid that the Germans would fight too fast, and if the Germans occupied Moscow, they would not be in vain, so since the Russian Republic had decided to send troops, it was necessary to occupy Moscow before the Germans.

Moreover, after seeing the failure of the Soviet Union and Russia in the European battlefield, in order to replenish the troops on the Western Front, a large number of troops have been continuously transferred from Siberia to the Western Front. The Russians dared to draw troops from Siberia and Central Asia at this time, betting that China would not form an alliance with Germany to flank Soviet Russia.

And he bet right and wrong at the same time, China under the leadership of Chen Jingyun will indeed not attack Soviet Russia with Germany, but it does not mean that the Russian Republic will not attack Soviet Russia with Germany.

From this point of view, the outside world, especially Stalin, overestimated China's ability to control the Russian Republic!

The Russian Republic is a normal country, with a readable industry, diplomacy and armed forces, and a large army, it is not just a vassal state of China like North Korea. The Republic of Russia and China are allies, or to be more precise, an ally supported by China.

But this relationship does not mean that the Russian Republic will give up its own interests in exchange for China's interests. The reason why it was still an ally before was because the Russian Republic needed to survive under the pressure of Soviet Russia, and once Soviet Russia could not put pressure on the Russian Republic, or even Soviet Russia perished under the attack of Germany, then after this pressure disappeared, the Russian Republic and China had lost their roots as allies.

The alliance between the Russian Republic and China was built on the premise that they were together against Soviet Russia, and this precedent was built on the premise that the Russian Republic was unable to confront Soviet Russia. As soon as the strength of Soviet Russia weakened, then this early stage would be lost.

So when Soviet Russia faced heavy losses in the European war, and the German army was about to arrive in Moscow soon, the Russian Republic finally could not sit still.

On June 30, the Russian Republic, without relevant contact with China, launched a large-scale attack on Soviet Russia without declaring war!

The Russian Republic has once again proved with facts that this world war is not a strategic game in Chen Jingyun's hands, you can play it however you want, everything in this world has its own law of development, and it is not Chen Jingyun who can influence the progress of all things.
