Yang Xiaolin waved his finger at Mu Mo gently: "It's hard to say this, we can only decide by looking at the future development and situation of our China." In fact, our war is not fought with the Russians, but with the British. What we have to do is break the blockade of the British and make our country grow, and how much power we have determines how we are willing to end the war. ”

Mu Mo smiled, Yang Xiaolin said it quite clearly, as long as China has the ability, it will definitely fight the Russians. This is what Germany wanted to see, and Mümmer sent a telegram to Berlin in the morning, asking him to find a way to increase support for China anyway, but Berlin was worried that if China really won the battle, would it sign any agreement with the Russians immediately, and they could accept such an outcome, but they were not willing to make too much effort for such an outcome.

This concern is not speculation on the part of the Germans, and the Chinese government's cabinet has not yet been formed, but the group headed by Sun Wen has already said that while defending the country, they will do their best to win the sympathy and understanding of the Western world for China, and resolve the British blockade by peaceful means.

There is still some market for this argument in China, because it seems more rational. The so-called Western world is, of course, Britain and France. Mu Mo knew Sun Wen's influence in China, but he also knew that it was not Mr. Sun Wen who could decide where things would go, but Yuan Shikai and Yang Xiaolin sitting in front of him.

After getting Yang Xiaolin's answer, Mu Mo's eyes looked at Lao Yuan, obviously asking for his opinion. Lao Yuan said: "Minister Mu Mo rest assured, Commander Yang is the chief of the army appointed by me, and I will support all the decisions he makes in the military." Although I would also like to try to get Britain and France to relax their policy towards us, the negotiations with Britain and France will not use war with the Russians as a bargaining chip. ”

Mu Mo was relieved, and at this time he finally said the decision of Berlin: "Mr. President, Commander Yang, it is very unrealistic for Berlin to send you supplies. But His Majesty the Emperor has already decided that in the near future we will provide the Chinese side with three submarines, and that German naval officers will train you soldiers. ”

Yang Xiaolin was very excited when he heard it! The Germans are already very powerful, at this time the submarines of various countries are still in the research and development stage, including the Germans also had a large-scale production capacity of submarines at the outbreak of World War I.

Submarines will not help the war with the Russians at all, but once China has submarines, the British will no longer be unscrupulous in blockading China, and their ships will have to be careful when they walk on the ocean.

At present, there are no submarines in the countries of the world on a large scale. Anti-submarine technology is even more blank. There is no need to fight a naval war with you, as long as I have a submarine at my doorstep, let you know that I have a submarine, and then let the British not find it, and show up from time to time to meet them, the British will be more or less restrained.

And the Japanese, after they have submarines, they can't come and go as they wanted as before.

Yuan Shikai also knew what this meant, and his face suddenly smiled: "Minister Mu Mo." Please convey my thanks to Kaiser Wilhelm on my behalf, and I can promise you that the Chinese will never forget the help of the Germans to us, and that in the future if we need to send troops to contain the Russians. Yuan is duty-bound. ”

Yuan Shikai's words really frightened Yang Xiaolin, and now he said it lightly, you won't be able to stand it when the Germans really go crazy! But it's nothing to think about, the promise of politicians. How many words have been cashed in?

After negotiating with Mu Mo, Yang Xiaolin was in a very comfortable mood, the three submarines were actually a symbol, but when these submarines came. When those battleships of the Nanyang Fleet were repaired in Qingdao, the first navy of New China was born.

They may not be as large as the Beiyang Naval Division, but this is an important step. Yang Xiaolin really has no interest in being president or not, but he doesn't want to be the commander-in-chief of the army of New China, he hopes that his title is the commander-in-chief of the army, navy and air force.

The start of the Navy is already promising, but the Air Force is still far away. Yang Xiaolin knew that if he wanted the navy and air force to develop healthily, he had to defeat Lao Maozi on land and defeat them completely!

This battle also provided us with valuable experience, our infantry and artillery did not fight very well, the infantry and artillery are not familiar with each other's rhythm, if we can cooperate more closely, I believe that we can annihilate more of the Russians' living forces.

Also, the artillerymen are not flexible enough, and their thinking is still the kind of thinking that the artillery has to fight the other side on the artillery position. This needs to be improved.

Artillery can also fight mobile warfare, and in the Korean War in the future, our artillery warfare will be good at maneuvering and concentrating. Taking the Battle of Shangganling as an example, the United Nations Army fired a total of 1.9 million shells, while the Volunteers only fought 400,000 rounds, but the Volunteers had the advantage in artillery losses on both sides, and the United Nations Army could not hold down our artillery at all.

One of the most classic examples of warfare was an artillery division that used the method of shoulder-carrying people to pull dozens of 37 anti-aircraft machine guns into caves on the mountainside when arranging positions, and then each artillery had a separate combat unit, equipped with a walkie-talkie and two commanders, and then camouflaged the holes, and covered the muzzles with grass to cover the fireworks that erupted when the shells were fired.

During the day, they pulled the artillery down the cave to rest, and the American planes came out to fight, and the result was that they did not lose a single gun in the whole battle, not only shot down a dozen American planes, but also supported the infantry in the tunnel.

Although Commander Yang does not have a walkie-talkie now, and the coordination of infantry and artillery cannot be so coordinated, that kind of flexibility is worth learning. Who ordered that artillery should only stay in position? Their own artillery must be trained, they still have too little combat experience, and I believe that as the battle progresses, their artillery will slowly mature.

Yang Xiaolin also came to the conclusion that the mobile defense was a very important factor when arranging the defense before. Not only the artillery had to be mobile, but also the infantry guarding the position. And the tunnel has a good effect on the concealment of maneuvering, and you should dig a few out of it.

When he came back from Lao Yuan, Yang Xiaolin was thinking about where to start and what to do first, and when he arrived at the Supreme Command, he suddenly saw Nyerere standing at the door of the Headquarters, as if he was waiting for him.

Lao Ni is now the head of the military intelligence department, which is very important, and Lao Yuan personally commands it. But when choosing a helper, Yuan Shikai asked Lao Ni to be his assistant in order not to make trouble with the intelligence department in the Northeast, it may be that Yuan Shikai thinks that Nyerere is a foreigner, and if there is really a dispute in the future, a foreigner is in this position, and some things are easier for Lao Yuan to do.

Yang Xiaolin walked up in a few steps: "Old Ni, is there something wrong?" ”

He thought Nyerere had something to tell him, and as he spoke, he walked into the headquarters. Unexpectedly, Lao Ni grabbed him: "Yang, I have something I want to talk to you about." It's not very convenient inside, so it's here. ”

Commander Yang was stunned for a moment. The footsteps immediately stopped: "What's the matter?" ”

Nyerere's expression was very conflicted, his thick lips twitched twice, and finally he spoke, "I really want to see you go to the end, and now you are only one step away from victory." But, I'm sorry, I have to leave China and go back to Africa right away. ”

Yang Xiaolin hasn't come back to his senses for a long time, is the old nun leaving? At this time, Nyerere's proposal to leave really made him unacceptable: "Nyerere, what is the reason?" Did someone do something to you? Yuan Shikai? ”

Nyerere hurriedly waved his hand: "No, it's not what you think. I'll show you something. ”

Nyerere said and pulled out a newspaper from his coat pocket, all of which were written in Italian, and Commander Yang had a hard time reading them even though he recognized a few.

"It's an Italian newspaper in Africa, dated two weeks ago. We didn't receive it until today. Yang, just look at the photo on the back, the photo is for them to want this African rebel, and there is a bounty. ”

Yang Xiaolin flipped the newspaper over. Sure enough, there are more than a dozen photos in the back, which are not very clear. He looked at them one by one, and when he saw the fourth, he felt a little familiar. Staring at the name below and taking a closer look, Yang Xiaolin suddenly understood why Nyerere was leaving.

"Regg?"

Nyerere nodded: "It's Reg, seven of these dozen people are brothers who were mercenaries with me at the beginning!" Yang, my brothers are fighting, they are dangerous. ”

Yang Xiaolin put the newspaper away, and when he understood the reason why Nyerere wanted to leave, Commander Yang really felt an indescribable sadness. He knew Nyerere's character, and Lao Ni told himself that he would not stay in China no matter what he said.

But Yang Xiaolin still said: "Old Ni, you can't do anything now, if you can wait for a while for me to get through this difficult time, I can give you support......

Before Yang Xiaolin's words were finished, Nyerere smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "I know you're going to say that, but I can't wait here." I repeat, my brothers are fighting, they are dangerous, I have to go back and fight side by side with them. ”

Commander Yang's words stopped there, and he understood.

Nyerere said: "Actually, I've learned a lot over the years I've been with you. Yang, watching you step by step to the present, pulling a dying China out of the grave, I keep thinking why can't I? My hometown is the same as China used to be, so why can't I fight for her? Now that my brother has taken the first step, I'm going back to walk with them. ”

Yang Xiaolin said: "Old Nun, what do you want me to help you?" ”

Nyerere shook his head: "You can't help me now." Your experience in the Rainbow Mountains should help us, and trust me, I'm no worse than you. ”

Commander Yang smiled and nodded. The two of them stood here for a long time and didn't know what to say, and finally Nyerere punched Yang Xiaolin on the shoulder very hard: "Fuck you, I don't want to come to see you, I originally wanted to leave you a letter and forget it." You beast makes me feel very uncomfortable. ”

Although Lao Ni's fist was still so heavy, Yang Xiaolin's figure just shook for a moment: "When are you leaving?" I'll send you. ”

Nyerere said very chicly: "Leave immediately, you don't have to send me." Yang, if I can really go to a certain level, I also need support, and if China gets out of the current situation, I will come to you, don't refuse me. ”

Commander Yang didn't say a word. (To be continued......)
