Ren Chao returned to the palace, and the so-called palace was just a private house temporarily requisitioned. As soon as Ren Chao entered the house, a maid took the initiative to greet him.

"Your Majesty is hungry! Dinner has been prepared for His Majesty, so I will order the kitchen to serve it to His Majesty. The maid said respectfully.

"Hmm!" Ren Chao nodded slightly, walked to the chair and sat down, casually picked up a cup of tea on the table, the tea was still steaming, Ren Chao blew the tea leaves floating on the surface, and took a sip gently.

As soon as Ren Chao put down the teacup, Ye Feng rushed in in a hurry, "Your Majesty, Wu Meng, commander-in-chief of the Third Army, has just sent a telegram that our Third Army has arrived at Chita and is launching an attack on Chita. The capture of Chita is imminent. ”

"So fast?" Ren Chao said excitedly.

"After the Third Army occupied Ulan-Ude, it immediately collected all the trains and marched along the Trans-Siberian Railway in the direction of Chita, and all the Russian troops along the way were willing to surrender. The army reached the city of Chita, and the Russian army in Chita gathered more than 10,000 Russian troops nearby to resist, but under the onslaught of tens of thousands of our troops, the Russian army was defeated and retreated, and the city of Chita could be broken overnight. Ye Feng said excitedly.

"Good! It's just great! Ren Chao stood up directly in excitement and said loudly, "Order the First Army to speed up its progress, make peace with the Third Army as much as possible, and then continue to attack westward along the Trans-Siberian Railway." ”

"Yes!" Ye Feng replied respectfully.

The Trans-Siberian Railway is a main railway line that runs from east to west in Tsarist Russia. From Moscow, via Ryazan, Samara, Chelyabinsk, Omsk, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Chita, Khabarovsk (Boly), to Vladivostok (Vladivostok). With a total length of 9,332 km, it is currently the longest railway in the world.

At the beginning, the Russians built the Trans-Siberian Railway, on the one hand, to promote the development of the Far East, and on the other hand, to strengthen the military strength of the Far East, so as to further invade the northeast of China. Because Tsarist Russia at that time had always coveted the northeast region of China. Thus, the Trans-Siberian Railway occupies an important place in Russia's aggressive policy. Shortly after the start of the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway. Russian Finance Minister Witte advocated that the main railway line should go directly to Vladivostok through northeast China, so as to bring the connection between northeast China and Russia closer.

The Russians began to build the Trans-Perian Railway in 1891, and once the railway was fully opened, it would greatly facilitate the mobilization of Russian troops and strengthen its military power in the Far East. After more than 20 years, by 1914, with the exception of a few sections that were not completed, the Trans-Siberian Railway had been basically completed.

After the completion of the Trans-Siberian Railway, it brought huge economic benefits to Russia. In the roar of the train. Siberia, which had been deserted, quickly prospered. The first change that changed here after it opened to traffic was the rapid growth of the population. In 1863, the population of Siberia was only 2.86 million, and by 1914 it had reached 9.62 million. The arrival of a large number of immigrants has effectively alleviated the shortage of labor in Siberia. With the rapid growth of the population, many cities have sprung up on both sides of the Great Railroad, and this pace of development was praised by international public opinion at the time as "American speed".

At the beginning of Ren Chao's administration, some ministers proposed to Ren Chao. Once the Russians built this railway, it would greatly enhance Russia's military strength in the Far East, and it would pose a huge threat to China. intervene to prevent the Russians from building the railway.

However, Ren Chao ignored this suggestion, because at that time Ren Chao no longer regarded Tsarist Russia as the main opponent. Because with the strength of Huaxia, as long as Ren Chao can unify the whole country. China was able to develop and grow rapidly, and at that time Tsarist Russia could not pose any threat to China at all. And at that time, Ren Chao already had a plan to recover Siberia, and the Russian old Maozi helped to help build the Trans-Siberian Railway. For Huaxia, that's a good thing that can't be sought, why stop it! What's more, even if Ren Chao tried to intervene, he would not be able to stop the Russians from building this railway.

And now that this railway has just been built, Lao Maozi has not yet recovered the cost, and Huaxia has sent troops to recover Siberia. What's even more tragic is that now the Chinese Empire has used this railway to quickly recover a large area of Siberia, the railway is dead, he Russians can use it, the Chinese people can naturally use it, the Russians probably never dreamed that they worked hard to build this big railway, in the end it was to make a wedding dress for others, and the Russians can only cry secretly.

"Haha~! I didn't expect the Third Army to progress so smoothly, it seems that we have to work harder! Ren Chao said with a laugh.

At this time, the maid had already served dinner to Ren Chao, and four dishes and one soup were not a luxury for Ren Chao, who was the respect of a country.

"Ye Feng! You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come and eat with me! Ren Chao said with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you!" Ye Feng responded respectfully, but he was not too polite, and sat next to Ren Chao honestly.

In the front headquarters of the Third Army of the Chinese Empire outside Chita City, Wu Meng, commander-in-chief of the Third Army, was also having dinner with several of his subordinates at this time.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief! His Majesty the Emperor had just sent a telegram ordering our army to capture Chita as much as possible, to make peace with the First Army, and then to continue the offensive westward along the Trans-Siberian Railway. Then an officer walked in and said loudly.

"Did His Majesty the Emperor say that we should attack until we go?" Wu Meng swallowed the food in his mouth and asked.

"His Majesty the Emperor has not explained this!" The officer replied respectfully.

"That's a good feeling! Then we'll fight all the way to Moscow. Ha ha~! Wu Meng said with a hearty laugh.

Since the end of the first war against Russia, Wu Meng has been transferred to Mongolia, where he has been staying for nearly 20 years. In the past 20 years, Wu Meng has visited the border more than once. When he didn't see those old Russian Maozi abroad, Wu Meng hated the root of his teeth, and he couldn't wait to immediately raise troops to the north to annihilate all these old Maozi. But as a soldier, obey orders should be the highest creed. His Majesty the Emperor did not give an order, and Wu Meng could only endure this breath for the time being. Now more than ten years of waiting has finally become a reality, as soon as the war broke out, Wu Meng could not wait to lead the Third Army of more than 100,000 troops to the north to attack Tsarist Russia, along the way successive battles, like a breakthrough, successfully recovered the area near Lake Baikal.
