The transfer of soldiers from the European front was an option that Britain and France would never allow Nicholas II to consider. They promised the Russians that they would figure out a way about weapons. Nicholas II no longer mentioned the withdrawal of troops from Europe, after all, the British and French were really good to Russia, and this is the reason for the short-handedness.

Since you are willing to provide weapons, then follow your way.

The Russians also analyzed it in many ways, believing that as long as Britain and France were willing to provide Russian assistance, it was still certain that the rebellion would be quelled. But Nicholas II made a very serious mistake, that is, he was using the British methods to fight the Russians, and he was using the elite Russian soldiers to solve the problems for the British and French!

Yang Xiaolin wanted to laugh a little in his heart when he heard Sa Daoyi say that he wanted to buy Chinese weapons, the country is like this, and it can't go other people's way and fight other people's wars. It is quite foolish for you to think about how to take into account the interests of Britain and France when solving your own problems.

If Nicholas II had returned from the front with his own ideas, it was really uncertain what the fighting in Siberia would have been, and the success of the armed uprising prepared by the comrades was also uncertain.

But now he actually expects Britain and France to provide him with weapons and armed recruits to come to Siberia to fight for him, if it is really only this one rebellion, Yang Xiaolin can't think of anything here, when the comrades blow the trumpet of the charge, Nicholas II still has soldiers to resist?

At this moment, Yang Xiaolin's idea is not to add a little more trouble to Nikolai, but whether China should really help him. Mr. Nikolai is really big this time, and he himself may not be even.

If the comrades go too well, it will not be good for China. They will kill Nikolai at once, and then set up their own regime, maybe they will be very friendly to China, but Yang Xiaolin does not need to kill Russia and then there will be a Soviet Union by his side.

China is no longer at war, but our military equipment research must be constantly updated. What Yang Xiaolin needed was a place where he could constantly sell old weapons and experiment with new ones. Without war, the pace of updating of our new weapons will slow down, and without war, what will we do with our old weapons?

The list of equipment that Commander Yang gave to the Russians this time made Britain and France very satisfied. The Chinese side provided Nicholas II with the best machine guns, the best artillery, and even fifty tanks and a hundred infantry vehicles for the Russian side.

The Russians know the power of these things, and the number of tanks in China is now only 200 and 300 armored infantry vehicles. At once gave Russia more than a quarter, not to mention that Britain and France had nothing to say, even Nicholas II himself was very moved, and he immediately issued a statement in St. Petersburg, saying that he hoped that from now on there would be no more war between China and Russia.

Lao Maozi's words can only be listened to, if you really believe it, you will feel very hurt.

On behalf of the Chinese government, Yang Du expressed his appreciation for the attitude of the Russians on the Siberian issue, claiming that as long as the Russians can continue to abide by the treaty, there will be eternal peace between China and Russia. Yang Xiaolin, commander of the army and navy of the Chinese forces, also replied. It said that China supports Russia's counterinsurgency operation, and if necessary, the Chinese side can consider providing more practical support for Russian troops in Siberia.

It was at this time that the Chinese seemed to be really peaceful around them. The contradictions with Lao Maozi are slowly easing, a non-aggression pact has been reached with the Japanese, relations with Britain, France and the United States are gradually getting closer, and China is also maintaining friendship with Germany and Austria.

Plus the Chinese forces are being disarmed. The clouds of war seem to be gradually moving away from the land of China, and the favorable environment is also stimulating economic development, after Li Yuanhong's visit to Europe has been successfully concluded. The layout of China's economic structure as a whole has basically taken shape.

The area south of the Yangtze River is a gathering place of commerce and light industry, and the rich mineral resources between the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River have been exploited. Driven by the tank base, the northwest has become the location of heavy industry, while the northeast is relatively concentrated with some high-tech enterprises.

The Russians did not know that there were two reasons why Yang Xiaolin sold them a quarter of the tanks of the Chinese armored forces, the first was to dump old weapons, and this batch of vehicles was about to be eliminated.

Strictly speaking, this tank is not a real tank, and the armored car is not a real armored car, although it is exactly the same as the armored car in the late World War I in terms of appearance, and even some of the more advanced in firepower, but now the tank still lacks a vital thing - special steel.

Without it, your tank can only be a dozen tons at most, and the speed is at most a dozen kilometers, because if it is heavier and faster, you will not need others to fight, and your tank will break down by itself. This has been proven many times in the war against the Russians. Tank bearings must be made of special steel, so that you can let go of the speed and withstand the weight of tens of tons in the future.

In 1868, the Englishman Marchit invented self-hardening steel, and since then human steelmaking technology has begun to develop by leaps and bounds. In 1870, the Americans built a bridge over the Mississippi River with chrome steel; Due to the difficulties in machining components, nickel steel was invented. Later, some countries also used nickel steel in the construction of warships. They found that the warships made of this steel were much better than ordinary steel.

By 1901, high-carbon chromium rolling bearing steels had appeared in Western Europe.

This kind of steel will be widely used in the military field in the future, tanks on the ground, airplanes in the sky, and aircraft carriers on the ocean, all of which are inseparable from it.

In the past, Yang Xiaolin had no conditions, and he pulled out the steel plate as soon as he put it together and installed the tracks and told the whole world that this was China's tank, with the physique of more than ten tons and the speed of several kilometers per hour, if it was put into World War II, a tank would be abused if it was pulled over casually.

After the market was opened, there were two sources of steel in China, the first one was established in Ma'anshan in cooperation with the Germans, and the Germans have promised to provide China with high-carbon chromium rolling bearing steel smelting technology, and the current machinery and equipment and technical personnel have been in place.

Another way is to buy from the Philippines! The Americans were able to produce this special kind of steel in the steel mills in the Philippines, and they were reluctant to sell it to China, because if there were a large number of such steel talents, the Chinese navy would not be able to control it.

The attitude of Britain, France and the United States towards China is like Yang Xiaolin's attitude towards his comrades, they want to take advantage of you, but they also don't want you to develop too fast. Later, it was because the United States needed China to buy a lot of his goods, and he got news that the Germans had cooperated with China to develop this kind of steel. It didn't make much sense to block it again, so it was sold.

The tanks that Commander Yang produced with this batch of steel are no longer the same as those sold to the Russians. This batch of tanks was first produced 50 units, weighing 30 tons, with a speed of 25 kilometers per hour, with a rotatable 87-millimeter gun and two machine guns.

In addition, the tank is equipped with the most advanced radio transceiver equipment at present, so that the driver can not only listen to the instructions above, but also convey information to any vehicle within a kilometer of the vehicle.

These fifty tanks can be considered real tanks.

At present, due to China's own special steel has not yet come out. There is no oil from its own oil field, so only fifty vehicles are produced. Yang Xiaolin produced fifty new ones by himself, and sold fifty old ones to the Russians, and when I updated them, I will see how the situation is in Russia, and then decide whether to sell the remaining old tanks to his comrades or to Nikolai.

In addition, another purpose of giving tanks to the Russians was to experiment with new weapons.

At present, various Western countries have also begun to study tanks and armored vehicles, and I heard that Germany has formed an armored force, and the French have invested 200 million francs in research this year, claiming to surpass China in tank technology.

Yang Xiaolin felt that the development of war history might change differently because of his arrival, and the first decisive tank battle was likely to start before World War I. So at a time when the French invested 200 million francs in the study of their new tank. Yang Xiaolin also invested two million oceans, and the arsenal produced the first batch of anti-tank mines and anti-tank shoulder-mounted guns without conscience.

Yang Xiaolin wanted to see how powerful these two things were.

On November 3 of the first year of the Republic, on the border between China and Russia. A group of Chinese soldiers with more than 20 trucks stood on the grassland in the cold wind, Wang Jinhan's eyes stared at the north from time to time, and more than a dozen cigarette butts had been trampled under his feet, but there was still no sign of anyone ahead. This really made him a little anxious.

"Damn, what's going on with these two poles? said that he would come to pick up the goods at noon, but he didn't see anyone else in the afternoon. When you meet, you have to kick him twice! ”

Feng Yuxiang put down his binoculars next to him: "Commander, I heard that he doesn't seem to be called Erpole now, but has changed his Russian name, what is Pole Lovesky." ”

Wang Jinhan suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard of this, and there was a little disappointed look on his face: "Oh, I can't kick it, he is now a foreign adult, we have to provide for him." ”

While speaking, he saw a group of men and horses appear on the horizon, Wang Jinhan hurriedly ordered the soldiers to be on guard, and at the same time sent a liaison officer to the front to check the situation. It didn't take long for the second pole wearing a big leather jacket to appear in Wang Jinhan's field of vision.

Wang Jinhan took a few steps to greet him: "Yo, Lord Rod, Lord Lovesky, you are finally here, I have been waiting for you for seven hours." ”

The second pole glared at him, if it was such a cynical sneer from others, he would have kicked it a long time ago, but he didn't dare in front of Wang Jinhan. He knew that if he lifted one leg, he might be thrown to the ground right away.

Looking at the general chapter on Wang Jinhan's shoulder, the corners of the two poles' mouths moved a few times, and he said with some sadness: "Become a brother, don't make fun of me." Recently, the Russians have been increasing their troops, and when they walk, they have turned a few corners, and you are tired of waiting for a long time. What's the matter, General? ”

Wang Jinhan smiled: "This is the commander's reward, Li Debiao is now a general, the commander of the Northeast Military Region, and he is very good!" The last time you saw me, you pinched your waist and asked me to report to him on your situation in Russia. ”

The second pole squinted at Wang Jinhan: "You won't really reciprocate, right?" ”

Wang Jinhan said: "I return? I had a big fall and he didn't get up for a long time! ”

"Good! Good fall! (To be continued......)
