"Your Majesty, the Tibetan side has no sincerity at all, and they will not be willing to peacefully liberate with us. They are already hard-hearted and unwilling to accept our conditions. One of their three conditions is to have an absolute autonomous region, have an army and diplomatic power, and listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement. And then there's that religious interference, religious privileges. In the end, they insisted on slavery, and we could not agree to any of these three conditions. They have even made some contact with the British, so I'm afraid they're going to start a rebellion next! We cannot afford to settle these things peacefully, so we must decide as soon as possible to resolve these matters by force! Zhou Chen said.

When Wang Guorui heard this, he immediately said, "Go and call me all the people from the Military Commission!" ”

"At present, we no longer expect Tibet to be honestly settled peacefully, so we must liberate Tibet by force and liberate the serfs in Tibet. The main thing is that they have a relationship with the British, so we have to solve it as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night! Qiu Baoren, you are the chief of the General Staff, tell me how we should formulate a battle plan! Wang Guorui said to the officers.

Qiu Baoren, chief of the General Staff, first said: "I came from the navy, and this operation against Tibet is definitely mainly based on the army, and I am not very good at it. However, I can also introduce the situation to the point where we judged that the environment in Tibet was very harsh, judging by the scouts we had sent out in advance. Not only are there no roads everywhere, but our soldiers have to climb up step by step. This road environment is too sinister for ordinary soldiers to have this quality. Only specially trained scouts can go up, and even if ordinary soldiers want to go up, the loss is not small! ”

"Also, even going up is not all smooth sailing. Especially after going up. The harsh conditions there were unbearable for even our scouts. Our scouts felt that their physical exertion had increased rapidly, and they could have lasted an hour of high-intensity exercise, but they were exhausted and out of breath in less than twenty minutes, and they felt that twenty minutes of exercise was more tiring than a normal day. According to the analysis of medical experts, they are due to the decrease in the oxygen level in the blood in the body. That's why it's so contrived. If our ordinary soldiers go up, it won't take long, the physical consumption is very great, and it will not be able to fight for a long time. ”

"However, the soldiers there are not only familiar with the geographical environment, but also familiar with the thin air of the plateau life, coupled with the disadvantage of our logistics supply, so we may not have much advantage. So we have to consider, is this too costly? If we attack them next, then our losses will definitely be relatively large. ”

Wang Guorui finally knew the result. are also quite helpless. Especially then they suffered great losses, even decades later, half a century later, it was not easy for the Chinese army to climb the plateau. At that time, the quality of Chinese soldiers and various medical conditions were much better than now. There were even many cars, trucks, and so on, but even at that time, Tibet was the most difficult bone to gnaw. Later Liberation. The army swept the world, but this Tibet is facing one of the most difficult places. If it were only the armed forces in Tibet, they would not be very powerful. But the key is the climate and geography, which is certainly not easy for soldiers to accept.

"Think about it!" Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui knows that the geographical environment of this Tibet is harsh. The first troops to be sent can't be too many. If Wang Guorui sends hundreds of thousands of troops, then the logistics supply will be enough to make Wang Guorui urinate! If hundreds of thousands of troops reach the plateau, then not to mention anything else, the pressure of supply in the later period alone will be more than ten times more than that in normal times. At that time, the loss of materials is also extremely huge, so the economy can not stand it. And the geographical environment is bad, and then the average soldier can't go up. Therefore, it is necessary to bring in elite troops.

"Your Majesty, Minister of Guards Li Guodong asks to see you!"

"Oh? Please! Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui heard Li Guodong, the minister of guards, and then suddenly thought of a question. Because this Minister of Guards, Li Guodong, is currently the Minister of Guards, and is the commander of the Praetorian Guard, with the rank of lieutenant general. But Wang Guorui thought of those Praetorian Guards. Forty percent of those Praetorian Guards are Red Police, and aren't these Red Guards just elite troops?

The Red Police Force is not only an elite force, but they also have a characteristic, that is, their vitality is much more tenacious than that of ordinary natural people. According to previous estimates, those clones of the Red Police Force are much more tenacious than natural people, and even in the face of the same grade of deadly poison, the Red Police clones can last more than three times longer than the lives of natural people. In addition, the Red Alert clones have a much smaller need for oxygen than the air, because although they are clones, their body structure is different. Unlike natural humans, many of the organs in the body of a cloned human are different from those of a natural person, and only a few organs of a cloned human need oxygen, that is, the internal organs. Other organs don't need oxygen, and muscles don't need oxygen to maintain them. And they need less than one-third of the oxygen of natural people, the speed of blood flow is slower than that of natural people, and the speed of oxygen consumption is much slower than that of ordinary natural people.

Therefore, the oxygen-thin plateau area of Tibet is not a big threat to the clones, even on the plateau, they can exert their combat effectiveness on the flat land, and even their combat skills are much better than many ordinary soldiers, and they can suffer a lot less losses when climbing the plateau. Moreover, their logistical supply needs are not high, but they can only need some supply potions provided by the ordinary red alarm system, while the supplies needed by natural people are very high, so they naturally cannot meet them.

Of course, there is one more important reason, these clones cannon fodder are cheap! The death of a soldier is only a few hundred silver dollars, but the death of a natural soldier is different. A natural person soldier died, and the value of the pension was not low. And the subsequent losses are not small, especially once a natural person soldier is discharged from the army, they can go to work as workers, they can go to become farmers, and even some powerful people can go to university and create higher value. If they die on the battlefield like this, their families will have to help take care of them for a long time, and then the economic value they create will disappear for no reason. This is not the case with clones, because clones are infertile, and secondly, they can only be used on the battlefield and cannot be used elsewhere. In addition, their development potential is limited, and it is impossible for them to go to university for further study, so when the clone dies, it will die, and the loss is not big compared to the natural person.

On the whole, in fact, these clones are also the best "cannon fodder" to attack Tibet, and it is not too heartbreaking to die.

"Your Majesty, this is about the schedule of the palace guards, you see ......," Li Guodong took the initiative to say.

However, Wang Guorui put aside the guards' schedule, and then asked: "Li Guodong, you have followed me for so many years, responsible for being the commander of my guard unit, and you haven't gained much real combat missions, right?" ”

"It's my honor to be able to protect the emperor!" Li Guodong said immediately.

Being the emperor's bodyguard may be a shortcut to promotion for some junior military attachés. But when it came to the senior military attaché, it was obviously very weak. Even the military attaché to the Emperor of Japan is just a transfer officer who is a young and excellent officer, and he will not be here for the rest of his life. So as a guard, the future is actually relatively narrow. It's like although Li Guodong is also a lieutenant general at present, he is the highest general in his life, and it is almost impossible to win the position of general and marshal again.

If you don't have some actual combat exploits, then I'm afraid it's almost impossible to be promoted to a general or marshal. So for high-ranking military attachés, it is actually not worth it to be the emperor's bodyguard.

"Now that there's a chance, would you rather go find a fight to fight?" Wang Guorui asked.

"Where to go? However, the minister does not have much command experience, so I am afraid that he will miss the emperor's major affairs! Li Guodong asked.

When Li Guodong heard this, he was obviously a little curious, because this was going to war. Li Guodong has not had any major battles for so many years, and he has no chance to fight at all. And if you can go to war this time, it can be regarded as a gold-plated time, then it is okay to improve it next. And if he can win this battle, although the rank may not be able to be promoted, he will definitely be able to get a knighthood. Previously, Wang Guorui wanted to reward him with a knighthood in recognition of his heavy responsibility to protect himself over the years. But he really can't get any military achievements, so there is no way.

But if there was a battle gilded, it would be good. However, he was also worried that this battle would be too big for him to command, and that it would be a problem if he missed a major event at that time.

"This battle is very good, you go with part of the Praetorian Guard, and then this time it is a soft persimmon. As long as you go to the plateau, those guys will fight with you. Wang Guorui said.

In the Tibetan region, the strength of those Tibetan troops is vulnerable. As long as those geographical and climatic problems can be solved, they can be solved very well, and those Tibetan troops really shouldn't be too soft! Those Tibetan troops, I'm afraid they are not even as good as the Manchu Green Battalion, absolutely soft persimmons. If it weren't for the fact that the geographical and climatic environment in Tibet is too treacherous, I am afraid that it would have been fought long ago. (To be continued.) )
