In the Anxi Province of the Chinese Empire, that is, the original Kazakhstan of Russia, a border emerging city called Xinquancheng on the border with Russia, it was the place where the Ninth Field Army of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire was assembled in accordance with the orders of the Ministry of National Defense.

Located in the middle of the border between Anxi Province and Russia, Xinquan City has not many local residents, most of whom are family members of the Anxi Provincial Garrison. Before the Sino-Russian border conflict, Xinquan City was guarded by about 15,000 officers and soldiers of the Anxi Provincial Garrison, after the Sino-Russian border conflict, the border line of the two countries was clouded, and the Ninth Field Army in accordance with the order of the Ministry of National Defense, from Almaty, the capital of Anxi Province, using kilometers and railways, belonged to 150,000 troops, in just two days, stationed in Xinquan City and the surrounding areas of the city.

On the other side of the border line between the two countries opposite Xinquan City, the Russian army also built a city here that can be called a military fortress, this fortress city has no Russian civilians, and the city is full of Russian active duty soldiers, and the purpose of the Russians to build this fortress city is to guard against the army of the Chinese Empire opposite.

After the Sino-Russian border conflict, the Russian garrison in this fortress city increased from the original 1 infantry division to 2 infantry divisions, with a strength of more than 40,000 people.

The troops of the Ninth Field Army entered Xinquan City, only a small part of the troops, and the other troops were temporarily stationed around the city, and the location of the garrison was not within the sight of the Russians, so that the Russians in the fortress city opposite did not find that the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Chinese Empire had arrived in the city. Otherwise, the fortified city will not be able to garrison more troops, and the Russians will also be outside the fortified city. Build some new fortifications and send more reinforcements here.

After the Chinese Empire launched a front attack on Russia. The Russian troops in the fortified city only found out that they were facing hundreds of thousands of elite troops armed to the teeth.

Although the fortress city built by the Russians was quite strong, under the intensive large-caliber artillery fire of the Ninth Field Army and the bombardment of dozens of fighters of the Royal Air Force of the Chinese Empire, the two infantry divisions of the Russian army, with their strong fortress fortifications, did not hold out for a day, and this fortress city built by the Russians with huge manpower and material resources was captured by the Ninth Field Army.

More than 40,000 men from two Russian infantry divisions, except for a very few, fled the fortress city opposite Xinquan City. Fleeing to the Russian hinterland, the remaining Russian officers and soldiers either became cold corpses, or needed to stay in the prisoner of war camps established by the Imperial Chinese Army for a long time.

The entire Ninth Field Army came to Xinquan City, and the capture of the Russian fortress city opposite was only the first step in the task, and the more important task entrusted by the Ministry of Defense to the Ninth Field Army was to capture the city of Omsk, which is more than 400 kilometers north of the fortress city of the Russian army, and to seize this important station city of the western section of the Trans-Siberian Railway. Not only could the armies of the Chinese Empire use the Great Railway to Europe to launch attacks on the Russian Ural Mountains and other European regions, but they could also cut off Russian reinforcements to the city of Novosibirsk. This allowed the 3rd Guards Army and the Andong Provincial Garrison to conquer the military stronghold of Novosibirsk without being affected.

The Russians knew the importance of Omsk and had sent the newly formed Russian 14th Army to reinforce the city, and the newly formed Russian 15th Army would also operate alongside the 14th Army. However, the target of reinforcements from the 15th Army was the city of Novosibirsk.

At the same time, Russia's other two newly formed armies also sent reinforcements to other Russian border areas. The Russians hoped to resist this large-scale attack of the Chinese Empire as much as possible and buy Russia more time. The Russians had already begun to speed up the formation of 10 new army groups, and even more new ones, by order of Tsar Nicholas II.

Although the sudden attack of the Chinese Empire on Russia made Tsar Nicholas II very depressed, and he was very dissatisfied with the performance of more than 2 million Russian troops on the border line, but he did not lose confidence in victory, in the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg, he heard the reinforcement plan arranged by the Minister of War Gorrosky, nodded affirmatively and said: "Although the heavy weapons of the newly formed 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th, and 4 armies are not equipped to full strength, but after such a long time of training, Tsar Ben believed that the combat effectiveness of these four armies would not be much different from that of other armies, and that they would certainly be able to resist the attack of the Chinese Empire with other army units. ”

Gorrosky agreed very much with Nicholas II's words, after the war, because the Chinese Empire had absolute air superiority, so that the heavy weapons of the Russian army did not play a role at all, so it didn't matter whether the newly formed 4 group armies were equipped with heavy weapons or not, even if they were fully equipped, they would be bombed by the Chinese Imperial Warplanes and the artillery of the Chinese Imperial Army, and they would be lost.

Tsar Nicholas II continued: "Our 10 army groups that are being formed still need to speed up, these 10 army groups are the force of our Russian Empire's counterattack, as long as these 10 or even more army groups are formed, our Russian Empire will have the ability to launch a counterattack against the Chinese Empire, so that our Russian Empire can achieve the final victory." ”

In addition, Nicholas II agreed with the opinion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Witte, and ordered the army to be ready to blow up the western section of the Trans-Siberian Railway at any time, and not allow the Chinese Empire to use this large railway to carry out a rapid attack on the Russian hinterland.

The sudden outbreak of war between China and Russia, although it was expected by all countries in the world, but there were also some unexpected situations, all countries knew that war would definitely break out between the Chinese Empire and Russia after this border conflict, but no one thought that the war would come so quickly, and it was the Chinese Empire that launched a surprise attack on the entire border line of Russia with a posture of Mount Tai overwhelming.

As for the fact that the Chinese Empire declared war on Russia only 10 minutes before the all-out attack, all countries once again saw the shameless realm of the Chinese Emperor Lin Daxin. It's really not a gentleman at all.

At the Prime Minister's Residence at 10 Downing Street, London, England, British Prime Minister Henry? Campbell? Bannavin looked at the British War Secretary Henry Wiley, the Admiral Fisher, and the Foreign Minister, the Marquess of Lansdowne. The tongue was a little unfavorable: "Now the Chinese Empire has suddenly declared war on Russia and launched a large-scale attack on the territory of Russia. According to our latest information, most of the troops on the Russian border have been attacked by sudden attacks and have been defeated, and many important towns on the Russian border have been occupied by the troops of the Chinese Empire, and the current situation is very unfavorable for Russia. ”

Henry Willy, Fisher and the Marquess of Lansdownne heard Prime Minister Henry? Campbell? Banavin couldn't help but sigh at the same time, he didn't expect the Sino-Russian war to break out so soon. The Chinese Empire is also moving too fast, although Russia began to reorganize its armament for war, Tsar Nicholas II, who insisted on waging war against the Chinese Empire, announced that he would form more than 10 more group armies, and Britain and France also gave Russia a lot of gratuitous aid, but your Chinese Empire can't wait any longer, carry forward the style, and let Russia complete their military expansion plan, so that the fight is not a bully!

You must know the military strength of the Chinese Empire today. It can be regarded as the most powerful among the countries in the world, that is, the British Royal Navy, which the British are proud of, and the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire is also a little different in total displacement. Not to mention the millions of elite army forces of the Chinese Empire, as well as the air force units that have always been the hegemon of the world.

You said that your Chinese empire is so strong, you can't let others develop Russia. Why are you in such a hurry, we British people suddenly become in a dilemma. This situation in Russia. If Britain does not intervene, I wonder if Russia will be able to hold out. If Britain intervenes, then the powerful army, navy and air force of the Chinese Empire will hang over the heads of the British, which is definitely a very headache, even more serious than a headache, it will kill people, is that Lin Daxin easy to provoke!

War Minister Henry Wiley said: "Russia has deployed more than 2 million land forces on the border line, but the Chinese Empire has just attacked for a day, and most of the Russian troops on the border line have collapsed, and many of Russia's border cities have fallen into the hands of the Chinese Imperial Army, that is, the key cities defended by the Russians like Novosibirsk City, although they are still controlled by the Russians, but in just one day, a large number of fortifications outside the city guarded by hundreds of thousands of Russian troops were occupied by the troops of the Chinese Empire. The city of Novosibirsk is also under siege, and if this continues, the situation of Russia will be very bad, and the entry of the Chinese Empire into Europe will become inevitable. ”

Foreign Minister Marquis Lansdowne said: "The situation is, what should we choose in the UK? Will it meddle in the war with Russia, or will it stay out of it? ”

Admiral Fischer said: "This is definitely a dilemma, do not intervene in the war of Russia, Russia is really a bit hanging, the probability of defeat is very high!" Intervening in the war, not to mention how much loss it will bring to our Britain, there is also an Allied country sitting on the side and watching the tiger fight, it is really tangled! ”

Prime Minister Henry? Campbell? Banervein took a breath to relieve the pain in his tongue, and when he received the news that the Chinese Empire had declared war on Russia, and that war would break out immediately, Henry? Campbell? Banervin happened to be eating, but as soon as he was excited, he bit his tongue and took a small bite of meat, and more than ten hours had passed, Henry? Campbell? Banavin still felt a terrible pain in his tongue.

Henry? Campbell? "The Russians sent us a telegram hoping that we, the British, would transfer the funds and weapons promised to them as soon as possible, and that Tsar Nicholas II was ready to form a new army group of more than 10 as soon as possible to deal with the attack of the Chinese Empire, and even launch a counterattack against the Chinese Empire." Now, although we in Britain have not made up our minds whether to intervene in the war between Russia and the Chinese Empire, I think that Russia's gratuitous assistance should be sent to the Russians as soon as possible, what do you think? ”

The Marquis of Lansdowne, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, nodded at this time and said: "It is true that the funds and weapons should be given to the Russians as soon as possible, so that at least the Russians will not attack the Chinese Empire and have no power to fight back, after all, according to the establishment of the Russians, the 10 group armies will have an army of 3 million, if this force can be put into the Sino-Russian War, it is not impossible for Russia to launch a counterattack against the Chinese Empire." ”

War Secretary Henry Wiley said: "It is best that the Russians can hold back the Chinese Empire, and for this reason it is worthwhile for us in Britain to add some gratuitous aid to Russia." ”

Prime Minister Henry? Campbell? Banavin nodded and said: "I also think that we can appropriately increase the gratuitous aid to the Russians, Russia's war potential is still very high, as long as we can give Russia enough support, I believe that this war between the Chinese Empire and Russia is very likely to become a protracted war, if Russia consumes the Chinese Empire to a certain extent, we Britain is not indispensable to join this war, and then there will be France will stand with us Britain, maybe we can put the last war, Take advantage of the lost colonies to get them back! Of course, everything needs the Russians to be able to hold back the Chinese Empire. ”

The French, who were allies of the Russian Entente, were in a similar mood to the British about the sudden outbreak of war between the Chinese Empire and Russia, and they were entangled in whether to intervene in the war or not.

After the Russian Tsar Nicholas II recognized that he wanted revenge, Britain and France had no choice but to compromise with their allies in the case of ineffective dissuasion, the British gave Russia free aid worth 30 million pounds, and the French followed behind the British and provided nearly 30 million pounds worth of francs to Russia, hoping that the Russians could expand their military strength, especially the large-scale expansion of the Russian army, and when Russia launched a war against the Chinese Empire, don't shoot yourself in the foot. In the end, there was no way to end it, and Britain and France had to wipe Russia's ass.

However, now that France's funds and weapons have not been fully allocated to the Russians, the Chinese Empire has preemptively launched a war against Russia, and French President Lubet has found the Elysee Palace in the eighth district of Paris, France, with a tangled face: "The Chinese Empire has done it, and now it is not a question of Russia dragging us France into the water, it is a question of whether we France can save Russia!"
