550 Destroying withering and decaying

Just when the representatives of the Entente countries gathered in London to draw circles and curse Yang Feng, and at the same time struggled with whether to continue this war that was about to be won, the war in the far east had already begun.

The two infantry divisions of the Chinese Army, which had already assembled in Hulin and Dongning, were still echoing in the cold wind when the sound of Emperor Yang reading out the edict declaring war on Russia was still echoing in the cold wind, they launched attacks on the Russian army opposite, and on the opposite side there was actually only one frontier regiment of the Russian army, and 2,000 people symbolically guarded the Sino-Russian border more than 400 kilometers north and south of Xingkai Lake.

The Supreme Commander of the Russian Army in the Far East, Alekseev, is very clear-headed, he has only 200,000 troops, but he needs to defend more than 10 million square kilometers of land east of Lake Baikal, what kind of border warfare is simply a joke, all he can do is to keep a few major strongholds, such as Ulan-Ude, Chita, Boli, Vladivostok, of which the Vladivostok garrison has a total of 50,000, 30,000 in Vladivostok, and 20,000 in a series of reinforced concrete permanent fortifications south of the twin cities.

The vast majority of these reinforced concrete fortresses have been newly built in recent years, especially those super-large caliber cannons on the European battlefield continue to be powerful, and China has provided Russia with very good performance 280 mm giant howitzers, Alekseev when building these fortresses, basically to defend against 305 artillery as the standard, he thinks that he can absolutely be called impregnable, and these fortresses are full of lofty mountains and vast primeval forests on both sides, and there is no possibility of playing a flank attack.

If China wants to attack Vladivostok, there is only one way to go south from Shuangchengzi, as long as they can't cross the Shuangchengzi fortress group, then it is impossible to hit Vladivostok, and as for attacking from the sea, it is pure nonsense, and the southern route from North Korea is also impossible. It was a joke to attack the first fortress in the Far East on the more than 100-kilometer-long coastal tidal flats of Tongguò, so after the Chinese army launched an attack, all the Russian troops in this area, including armed civilians, withdrew south to the south of the Shuangchengzi fortress group.

In Alekseev's design, with this group of two fortresses in the south and north to defend against a land attack and a defense against a sea attack, Vladivostok has a mountain of material reserves, 50,000 troops and tens of thousands of armed civilians, he can support at least two years, such a long time is enough for a lot of things to happen. If after two years he has no reinforcements, then surrender is not a big deal. Speaking of which, his personal relationship with Emperor Yang is still good, thinking that when they were scourge Americans in the Americas, they had also been traitors and surrendered to the Chinese, thinking that Emperor Xià would still give His Excellency the Governor General the treatment of his status.

Unfortunately, the illegitimate son of Grandpa Nikolai, His Excellency the Admiral of the Russian Empire, did not know what kind of weapons of terror his self-proclaimed impregnable fortresses would face next.

In just one day, after clearing all the Russian troops around Xingkai Lake, the 12th Army of the Chinese Army's Third Army, which was responsible for attacking Vladivostok, entered Shuangchengzi, or Ussuriysk, as the Russians called it at this time.

"Clean up the city. All Russians, men, women, and children, were arrested and sent to concentration camps in the country, remembering that not a single one should be left behind. Lieutenant General Zhang Zhenfang, commander of the 12th Army of the Third Group Army of the Chinese Army, who entered the city in a military off-road vehicle, looked at a big Russian fat girl who was staring at him with vigilant eyes on the side of the road and said to the officer next to him.

Then the two cities, which had been relatively peaceful, immediately became chickens and dogs, and it was not long before the remnants of the Russians who did not retreat south were all escorted out by the bayonets of the Chinese soldiers. One by one, they got on the military truck transporting them with large bags and small bags with trepidation. These people will be sent directly to Ningguta, where there is a special concentration camp to house these Russians, and it will not be Zhang Zhenfang's responsibility in the future, he just needs to send people there. However, after these civilians are concentrated to a certain number, they will be directly loaded onto the merchant ships of neutral Sweden and sent back to St. Petersburg, of course, their property will not be brought back.

As one who was deeply influenced by his relative Yuan Shikai. The general, who was known for his cunning, could not help but feel pity for Emperor Nicholas and Prime Minister Stolypin when he thought of the Russian government, which was already struggling with food shortages, and then facing hundreds of thousands or even millions of mouths waiting to be fed.

"Ruthless, this trick is really ruthless, raising, no money, no food, no raising, these hungry people have to fight with them, the image of the emperor and the government has become a complete joke, while earning a good reputation for yourself, at the same time, your enemies are in internal chaos, and the people are detached, which is much better than killing them directly." The cargo couldn't help but admire the military vehicles full of Russian immigrants in the distance.

As he said this, Major General Samsonov, who was stationed in the distant Russian border city of Kyakhta, was hiding in an underground bunker with his head in his hands, desperately listening to the terrifying explosions around him.

This scumbag, when did he get this goddamn cannon to the trading city? His Excellency the Major General couldn't help but let out a sad and angry roar, and in his roar, his Kyakhta fortress was in the explosion of those roaring and falling shells, turning into ruins one by one, even the underground bunkers were no exception, and the shells weighing more than two hundred kilograms were like nails smashed into the plane plank, easily smashing through the thin concrete protective layer, and then using dozens of kilograms of antimony and antimony inside, instantly shattered all the qiē bones.

The shelling lasted for a full hour, and after an hour, the originally prosperous border town, an important hub of Sino-Russian trade, because of the Sino-Russian Kyakhta Treaty nearly two hundred years ago, the city recorded in history no longer existed, almost completely erased from the ground, when less than 2,000 remnants of the Russian army trembled out of the shelter, with eyes not yet accustomed to the visual shock in front of them, the ground under their feet also began to give them a new shock.

"Chariots, chariots of the Chinese!" Major General Samsonov, whose ear had been knocked out by a piece of rubble, shouted at the soldiers who were still dazed, while covering his bleeding wounds.

He was transferred from the European theater to the Far East to retire because of his injuries, but he knew very well what the vibration from his feet meant, and it was not just a chariot, but a chariot group.

As soon as he finished shouting these words, an iron-gray wall appeared on the earthy yellow grassland on the left and right sides of Kyakhta, which became clearer and clearer in the vast wind and sand, until the muzzles of the black holes spewed flames almost at the same time.

Five or seven millimeter shells exploded accurately one by one in the remnants of the Russian army, and the Russian army, which had already been defeated and lost its soul, had no courage to fight back in the face of these steel monsters, and one by one looked at the chariots that were getting closer and closer, screaming in horror and running out of hiding, and fled in a hurry in the ruins of Kyakhta.

"Don't run, stop, with grenades, with zha kits, for the sake of the Tsar, for Russia, show your courage!" Major General Samsonov angrily brandished his saber and shouted at his men who were being defeated. At this time, the muzzle of the gun of a chariot on the opposite side turned, and at the moment it stopped, a flash of fire erupted from the muzzle, and then I saw his entire upper body suddenly disappear, and then a shell exploded behind him.

"Keep going, don't stop, you must hit Ulan-Ude before dark tomorrow!" A few minutes later, Nie Xianfan, commander of the First Armored Division of the Chinese Army, stood on his command vehicle and ordered as he watched the radio station in his hand as he searched for the remnants of the enemy.

More than 300 tanks, including fifty of the latest Dragon heavy tanks, immediately left this meaningless ruin and rushed north along the railway line at high speed towards Ulan-Ude, behind them was a mechanized infantry division in trucks and armored personnel carriers, and then behind the infantry of an entire army group, just as this torrent of steel rushed to the north, the follow-up sappers also began to repair the Kyakhta section of the Kuwu railway that was blown up by shells as quickly as possible, Then the train from Kulen will send a steady stream of all kinds of war materials to the front.

"It's a good start, and then it's up to the navy." Emperor Yang in Beijing looked at the battle report in his hand and said with a relaxed face, in fact, for China, the Far East is like a ripe fruit, just stretching out his hand to pick it, that is, Vladivostok and Shuangchengzi need to be really treated.

"Your Majesty, the Ottoman Empire has declared war on the Entente, and Canovas wants to ask Spain if it has declared war on the Entente." Zhang Quan, who was standing in front of him, said.

"Doesn't he want to?" Yang Feng asked strangely, since Canovas asked like this, then it is not surprising that the Spanish government is hesitating, after all, if war is declared on the Entente, Spain may face the landing operation of the British and North American coalition forces on its own soil, the main force of the Spanish naval and land forces is currently in the Americas, and they have lost interest in European interests, and now they only want to run the sugar industry in Cuba and the fruit plantations in Florida in the Americas.

"Spain's domestic situation has not been very good in recent years, and it has been more strictly bewitched by liberal thought, and Canovas has always dominated the prime minister's position over the years, so many people are promoting opposition to the monarchy, and most of these people have a deep relationship with France, if Spain declares war on France, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no turmoil in the country." Zhang Quan said. (To be continued......)
