Chapter 279: Establishment of a Province
As early as after the end of the Founding War, Wang Yong inspected the northern theater many times, attaching importance to operations under extremely cold conditions.
In terms of logistical support, it has done a very good job.
The problems of the Yongguo in the winter offensive are not so big, and the physical structure of the Yongguo people is essentially more suitable for fighting in the ice and snow than the Caucasians.
St. Petersburg – Winter Palace, when Nicholas II heard the news, it was as if he froze.
Those yellow-skinned monkeys were not to be underestimated, this is the conclusion he got from the Japanese.
"I knew I should have killed them ten years ago!" He looked at the telegram, his hands trembling.
But I have long forgotten that ten years ago, the northeast of Yongguo was still the sphere of influence of the Japanese.
Damn the Yongguo!
He thought resentfully, but there was nothing he could do.
He had to mobilize the near-infinite gray animals to fight for himself, but even that was very difficult.
First, the grey cattle did not have a rifle on average, and some even shared a rifle with three or four people, though they could still defeat the Austro-Hungarian army of waste; Second, those serfs are not very well-behaved, they have no food to eat, they don't want the tide of war to grow bigger and bigger, and once they lose the battle, they will ......
A gloom flashed across his face.
Will the Romanov dynasty be buried in their own hands?
A lightning fear crossed his mind, making him shudder.
Impossible.
"King Yong, our double-headed eagle is not so easy to mess with." Nicholas II looked at the map and muttered: "We are lost in the Far East, but in the wind and snow in Siberia, the Russians will bury you!" ”
After the defeat of the Marne, the Germans also came to their senses, they thought that this was a short and happy victory like the "Seven-Day War", but they did not expect that it was a tug-of-war with no end in sight. At this time, they urgently need an ally.
Hearing Yongguo's declaration of war on the Russian Empire, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
After the defeat on the Marne, the Germans knew that the Anglo-French forces on the Western Front were difficult to deal with, so they prepared to turn their attention to the Eastern Front first, and force the Russians to withdraw from the war first.
He hurriedly contacted the ambassador of the German Empire to Yongguo and asked for a meeting with King Yong.
Britain, France and other Entente countries were also instantly shocked, fearing that at this critical moment, Yongguo would cut off the supply of materials to the Entente, especially the British side now it has no time to look east, if Yongguo is still like a few years ago, attacking the British colonies, especially India, wantonly attack, its materials, finances will have big problems, even if the war is won, there will be no profit.
Wang Yong did not meet with the German and British ambassadors.
Instead, Zhang Zhen met with the British ambassador on behalf of King Yong, stating that Yongguo had no intention of participating in the allies, just because North Asia had always been the inherent sphere of influence of ancient China, and now it must be controlled by Yongguo himself, and promised not to attack the British colonies in the Asia-Pacific region.
The two countries signed the Sino-British Shanghai Peace Agreement in Shanghai.
Yongguo expressed his willingness to maintain peace under British rule, and was unwilling to challenge this order, nor did he intend to be an enemy of the British.
Britain said that it would safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the Chinese in the colonies under its rule, and was willing to protect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese businessmen in India, and that the Indian market was partially open to China.
Germany did not get the alliance agreement they wanted from Yongguo, but Yongguo still promised to supply Germany with supplies, and Germany was now financially strapped and could exchange more technology for it.
In the Far East, the Russian Imperial army had almost no power to resist, and the Yongguo army did not expect the surrender of the Tsarist army at all.
Fortunately, the city of Vladivostok is not big, and the street fighting is not so easy to fight.
Boli had also been wiped out by the swarming Northeast Military Region.
At this time, Komsomolsk, which was later established by the former Soviet Union, was still just a settlement. Since then, all forces in the Far East have been cleared by the Yong Kingdom.
The six major armies of the Northeast Military District, two of which marched west to aid the offensive of the North-Western Military District on Irkutsk, Ulan-Ude and Chita, one large army group was responsible for sweeping the Russian troops east of the Lena River, and two major armies were preparing to land on Sakhalin.
The naval forces of the Yong Kingdom had blockaded the Tsugaru Strait, leaving the Japanese forces in South Sakhalin and Hokkaido into turtles in the urn.
On the other hand, the Yongguo Navy is preparing to block the connection between Kyushu Island and the main island of Japan.
The three major armies of the Eastern Theater of Yongguo and the South Korean army under the Yongguo system are preparing to land on Kyushu Island together.
As soon as the Far East was recovered, Yongguo immediately announced that the capital of Jilin Province would be moved to Whale Harbor (Vladivostok), and the Sea of Japan would be renamed Whale Sea. The south of 48 degrees north latitude is assigned to Jilin, and the north is established in accordance with the Far Eastern Federation of the Russian Federation, and the provincial capital is Baili (to commemorate Jiang Baili's contribution in the founding war, and it is homophonic with the original name Boli). )
The recovered Uriya Sutai was renamed Yunzhong Province, the provincial capital Yonghui (Kulen, Ulaanbaatar), to commemorate the time of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty Yonghui when the territory reached its maximum.
Since the Tsarist army still had a psychological advantage over the Chinese at this time, and the resistance was fierce, then the consequences continued the consistent style of the Yongguo, but there was resistance, and all the men in the city were slaughtered.
However, due to the cold weather and sparse population in the Far East, all the male captives were guarded to transport supplies, rebuild the destroyed railway, and change the broad-gauge railway to the same standard as the Yongguo.
In the cold weather, the captives did not dare to run around casually, and running around casually was only a dead end.
And women with childbearing potential are still the same as before, soldiers and heroes choose their own and domestic auctions in the form of a combination.
The sweep of the Eastern Military District in the TW was not very easy.
The Japanese army's will to fight is very strong, and TW is mountainous and forested, fortunately, after purging a group of traitors, with the help of TW's fathers and fellow villagers, it took more than a month to wipe out all the Japanese troops, and there was almost no way to survive.
Fortunately, the time of recovery was relatively early, and the hatred was the most intense, and many young children of TW announced on the spot that they would join the Yongjun Army and go on the Northern Expedition to Japan.
TW still maintained its independence as a province under the thinking of the Yongguo high-level officials, and the Ryukyu Province was also assigned to TW Province, after all, the last king of the Ryukyu Kingdom was gone in 1901.
TW is to take over the Ryukyu Province and expand the area of sea areas under its control in the future, and it needs to be developed as an important base for the Yongguo to move towards the western Pacific.
After all, the parliamentary election system has not been rolled out now, and Wang Yong is worried that after TW is incorporated into Fujian, Fujian will focus on the development of Fuzhou and ignore the construction of TW.
TW alone helps to strengthen its voice.
The Japanese side did not deploy heavy troops on Ryukyu Island, because it did not expect such a neat defeat of the navy, so the group army of the Eastern Military District completed the sweep in just over a week, and did not encounter the huge losses of the United States on Iwo Jima that year.
Although Japan has a small land area, it has a large population and a strong will to fight, and the sacrifice required for comprehensive conquest is very large.
