250 Prelude to Attack

"Not bad." Denikin smiled and nodded, and said proudly: "In the past few years, the United States has become more and more explicit in the wooing of Sikorsky, and I estimate that if we Russia does nothing, this genius will definitely play for the United States in the future." So, I have to work for the Empire, and even cooperation can't give up such talent to the Americans. Take a look at this information, I'm sure you'll be satisfied. After speaking, he handed over a piece of information, "Ilya Muromets" biplane, the power of each engine is 162 kilowatts, the aircraft is 15.5 ~ 22 meters long, the wingspan is 24.9 ~ 35.5 meters, the flight weight is 6.1 ~ 7.5 tons, the flight speed is 137 kilometers per hour, the maximum ceiling is 4000 meters, the maximum range is 540 kilometers, and the crew is 4~8 people. The maximum number of machine guns installed on the aircraft reached 8, and tests were carried out to install 76-mm machine guns on the aircraft. Aerial bombs could be hung in the fuselage, and for the first time, an electric bomb dropper was used. The bomb load of the aircraft is 400 kg, and it can reach 700~800 kg when overloaded. The aircraft was equipped with pilot and pilot instruments, as well as bombing sights.

"Ilya-Muromets" has three main modifications: Type A was made in 1914, there are some windows on the sides of the fuselage, two pontoons for trainers, 4 seats, unarmed. It is equipped with two 100-horsepower "Hundred-Eyed Giant" engines and two 140-horsepower "Samelsson" star-shaped air-cooled engines.

The V-type was made in 1915, with a blunt and flat nose, and four 150-horsepower "daylight" engines, which were slightly smaller in size than the A-type. It has 3~7 machine guns and can carry 522 kg of ammunition. The pilot's windshield is in the form of windows on both sides of the front of the subway locomotive, which is easy to identify.

The E-model was the finest modification made in 1917, with a large egg-shaped nose cab with multiple pieces of glass. Equipped with 4 270 horsepower "Renault" engines, the largest of all modifications, the speed can reach 137 kilometers per hour, the total weight is 7000 kilograms, the ceiling is 4000 meters, the endurance is 5 hours, with 7 machine guns and 800 kilograms of bombs, the crew is 7 people, and the range is 540 kilometers.

"Very good things...... Zhao Yun nodded in agreement, Huaxia is not without its own aircraft research institute, but at present, excluding those European goods, the new aircraft only came out of the seaplane "Jiang Feng" series, these can only be regarded as light and medium-sized aircraft, and there is still a big technical gap between the research and development of heavy aircraft, no wonder this old man is so confident, Lao Maozi has some things that are really good. Take the E-type made in 1917, for example, Zhao Yun counted on the "air gunboat" that had not been armed at hand.

This is still the stuff of Tsarist Russia 6 or 7 years ago, Tsarist Russia has always been called the European gendarme, and what they have in their hands is indeed eye-catching. This proves from the side why European countries are worried about Soviet Russia, which has inherited the legacy of Tsarist Russia. Who knows what these ambitious Russians will do? Therefore, in order to take precautions, European countries will encourage Poland to support Ukraine and Soviet Russia to fight. And the Entente countries are also waving their flags behind their backs, so they almost shot directly.

If it weren't for Denikin, even if Zhao Yun had a wave of people like Farrell Tucker collecting various technologies for camps in Europe, I am afraid that he would not be able to completely inherit the results of an empire's military technology in a short period of time. And even though a large number of people were sent to loot in Europe, the original still prevailed. This is just like in later generations, China's aviation industry still has to learn from Lao Maozi's aviation industry every few decades, and at this time, China's innovation ability does need to learn from European powers. And if you get Russian scientists, then Zhao Yun's series of science and technology, there is no need to wait for the talents sent to study abroad in the previous Manchu Qing Dynasty to return to China, and now you can start scientific research in advance.

However, is Denikin really willing to share the scientific and technological achievements of Tsarist Russia with himself? This is the greatest legacy of the remnants of Tsarist Russia, except for battleships and other physical objects.

In the style of villain first and then gentleman, Zhao Yun asked his doubts.

In the face of Zhao Yun's question, Denikin just said incomprehensibly: "One qiē for the empire!" ”

The sentence "......" made Zhao Yun roll his eyes, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has a full legacy, so this old man who is loyal to the Tsarist Russian Empire is considered a sand legacy? Or is it a Russian legacy?

However, scolding in his heart, Zhao Yun was in a good mood. There was also a rare sincere smile on his face, and today he came to the Belgian library under the guise of an arms dealer and intelligence dealer Leertac, and the harvest was far beyond Zhao Yun's imagination. This trip not only invited a legendary general from the Tsarist era to join, but also packed a group of Russian scientists and military generals who were not weak to join, and also took the line of European Tsarist Russian forces, which will also have good returns in the future.

Although the purpose of the joining of this legendary general is not very clear at the moment, the joining of that group of Russian scientists and military generals is almost a certainty. If nothing else, these Russian scientists and military generals will make Ulan-Ude's Belarus grow from a local power to the largest White Russian power. The forces here are not military strength, but influence on the entire Tsarist Empire. Ulan-Ude's Duma is already a force to be reckoned with in the eyes of Tsarist Russia in Europe, but in their eyes it is not a force capable of influencing the political situation. Only the Russian bourgeois government and the Soviet Russian government were the best candidates for the successor to Tsarist Russia, and Denikin served as chief of staff of the supreme commander of the Russian bourgeois government, commander of the Western Front and Southwestern Front, and assistant commander-in-chief for three terms. On a certain stage, it represents the choice of the army of the Russian bourgeois government. Ulan-Ude only set up the Duma and did not elect a supreme leader, which also gave some people who wanted to be in positions of hope at a certain time.

Therefore, no matter what purpose this Denikin used to choose the White Russia of Ulan-Ude, even if there are any repetitions in the future, Zhao Yun is confident that this group of Russian elites will all be pulled into his own camp with the sharp weapon of "monks".

"But Lord Faleltucker, there is one thing I must warn you of, that the army led by Trotsky is a bit strange, and that they should not be treated as ordinary troops, and that you should be careful if you encounter them in the future."

Zhao Yun was stunned when he heard this: "What is weird?" ”

"I don't know, I fought against him several times a few years ago, and once I even reached a distance of 200 miles from Moscow, but I was defeated by his men, and then I was defeated all the way to the Crimea under the counterattack of the commander of the Southern Front of the Soviet Union, Egorov, and the military commissar Stalin. Now it is said that there is also civil strife in Soviet Russia, and it seems that it is not the same as before, and I do not know who is still in position, and which of my opponents at that time have been transferred to where. I can't help it, I can't stand the toss of this old bone......"

"Stalin...... Actually, after hearing the old man mention this name, Zhao Yun didn't listen to his words at all. As for the old man saying, he couldn't stand the toss, Zhao Yun couldn't help but roll his eyes, are you still for the empire? If you don't think about the guys in Moscow, why stay in the library in Belgium?

Stalin! This is an important person, and as soon as this character appears, Zhao Yun doesn't have any thoughts. Then I chatted with the old man for a few more words. Thinking that everything that should be talked about was almost over, and he didn't intend to linger any longer, he commanded Farrell Tucker to leave the library.

On the way back, Farrel Tucker still had a flattering expression, like a traitor.

At this time, Zhao Yun was busy absorbing the content of the conversation just now.

Time is tight......

Soviet Russia has been running the territory of Tsarist Russia in Europe for 3 or 4 years, and it is unknown how many people have fallen to Soviet Russia, and how many people can obey the call of Denikin, the old and young remnants of White Russia! How can these local fortresses and cities occupied by Soviet Russia be conquered casually, and I don't know how much time it will take to advance westward! And in the East, the Japanese are already sharpening their knives. Fortunately, this time it was found that Wrangel's White Russian Army and the Japanese Army were suspicious of each other, and at the moment the White Russian Army controlled by the Entente did not want the Japanese army to grow bigger in the Far East. The Japanese army, on the other hand, was anxious to resolve the war because of domestic economic problems. Therefore, the two families were wary of each other, and they could not work together to deal with the Soviet Russian army stranded in the Far East. Now the war in the Far East is still unresolved, but depending on the situation, the patience of the Japanese is running out. And in the end, will it be to advance westward and receive the legacy of Tsarist Russia, or will it be an eastward expedition to first wipe out all the Japanese troops who have landed on the land of the Far East? One east and one west, if he didn't want Huaxia to fight on two fronts, Zhao Yun could only choose one direction. Once you've done your best to get this direction, put all your energy into another battlefield.

"Farrel Tucker, you keep in touch with this old man, and let me know as soon as anything happens." After giving instructions to Falel Tucker, Zhao Yun hurriedly contacted the three heroes of Siberia, "The current situation is indeed a bit troublesome, after leaving a town, only 40,000 camp men and horses can be mobilized, it seems that they have to call a few helpers." ”

As a former junior employee of a state-owned enterprise, one of the things Zhao Yun learned in a state-owned enterprise is to do the most important thing at the first time, not the most urgent thing. Sometimes it seems that both things are the same thing, but when you think about it "with your brain", you will find that the truth is not so simple. Sometimes the most urgent things happen one after another, and the director does not do the most important thing in the end, and is blamed by his boss, and even never comes out. And sometimes give up some immediate interests and do the most important thing, then you will not regret it. At present, Japan's refusal to make concessions on the issue of "Luda" is obviously a matter of urgency, but this is not an important matter compared to the opportunity to annex the essence of the European part of Soviet Russia. If Zhao Yun gave up this opportunity in front of him, and then defeated Japan and got the Far East, would Zhao Yun now have the strength to hit the Japanese mainland? The answer is no, so, after a little thought, Zhao Yun adopted a strategy of delay. Talk! Let's talk first, if the domestic opinion is too big and Japan will not budge, it will hold military exercises; anyway, in addition to the navy at the moment, there is still hope for the army to deal with the second-rate and nearly third-rate Japanese army.

The "Luda" incident was already brewing in the Chinese people, but the governments of both sides adopted the strategy of "holding their troops still," and the "war of words" between the two peoples was "croaking," but as long as they were not fools, they could see who the "riotous" action in China and the "covert" naval "lend-lease" plan were aimed at. It is precisely because of these two points that although the domestic public anger is high this time, it is rare that there is no voice of accusation against the two governments of the north and the south. Because everyone knows that this time the two governments of the north and the south are preparing to "do a big job."

And the "common hatred and hatred" of the governments in the north and south of China also made the Japanese, who had been sitting firmly in Diaoyutai, finally unable to sit still. After repeated discussions and considerations, the Japanese top leadership decided to first take down the Soviet and Russian Far Eastern Army, which was the most difficult to bite and which involved a large number of Japanese troops, within two months, and then went south to the three eastern provinces in one go, and after destroying the main force of the government army in northern China, the troops came to Jixian County and forced Huaxia to make an alliance under the city.
