Chapter 14: The First Step of the Conquest

Make every effort to save every minute and second for the commander to create more value, and arrange the work in the first time with the commander's time; Improve the commander's living standard and quality of life, pay attention to the commander's living habits, make life more interesting, and ensure that the commander is physically and mentally healthy and relaxed.

……

Sha Junyi began to integrate into her new role, and Fan Yize did not ask about her past, nor did she plan to understand, because it was not necessary.

He saw something unusual, and Fan Yize believed that an outsider could actually bring it to the base, which showed that it was not simple.

However, this matter was not taken to heart by Fan Yize, and the arrival of the base meant that he could take the first step of conquest in this world.

Conquest of a world is not a simple matter, and it requires full planning, especially in the face of an unprepared world.

Although the Red Guard Corps has a good military and technological advantage, it has no foundation in this world, and three months is not enough time for the Red Guard Corps to establish an intelligence system in Japan, after all, the Red Guard Corps does not have a professional spy force.

Three months later, the Russo-Japanese War would begin, and Fan's so-called advantage of foresight would basically not exist.

Because the Russo-Japanese War here is completely different from the movie, there is no travel * port, and there is nothing to do in my hometown, and the war is unpredictable from the beginning to the direction.

Fortunately, there are some things that are the same, that is, the military strength, national strength, and operational concepts and level of Japan and Russia in this era.

How to take the first step, this is a question that Fan Yize thinks about.

Completely putting aside the Russo-Japanese War in history, Fan Yize's mind naturally emerged the contradiction between Japan and Russia in this world, and in his view, the war that was about to break out was a war between the imperialist powers between the Japanese Empire and the Russian Empire in order to fight for control of the Korean Peninsula on Korean soil.

This is the most fundamental contradiction between the two countries and the flashpoint of the war.

By the end of the 19th century, Russia's territory, which had arisen in eastern Europe and later expanded into West Asia, the Balkans and northern Asia, had expanded to 22.8 million square kilometers; With 17% of the world's land area and a total population of about 141 million people, Europe was relatively calm for Russia at this time. It is against this background that Russia turns its attention to the Far East.

However, in the war against Japan, Russia's strategy was quite clear, waiting for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle when the Baikal section of the Trans-Siberian Railway was opened to traffic, the transportation capacity was increased, and the outer fortress of Vladivostok was completed.

On the Japanese side, on the other hand, the alliance of the samurai clique and the big capitalists was convinced that it would be in Japan's best interest to launch a war for the seizure of Korea and Northeast China as soon as possible before the Russian Trans-Siberian Railway was built.

Therefore, battlefield warfare is inevitable.

The arrival of Fan Yize did not change the situation in the Far East in any way.

In fact, Japan says that North Korea is facing a threat from Russia, and that it is not so much Russia's ambition to dominate the Korean Peninsula, and Japan wants to annex Russian territory in Siberia and sit on its rich mineral resources.

It is not so much that one side is the victim, but rather that it is a game between two careerists, both for their own interests.

Japan suffers from a shortage of its own resources, and imports a large amount of resources every year, which makes Japan's development costs remain high.

Russia, on the other hand, is determined to shift its internal contradictions to the outside and plunder the economy of the Korean Peninsula to ease the pressure on Russia's internal side.

And behind the two countries, there were also the push of other powers, and finally the war came to the brink of breaking out.

Of course, this imminent outbreak is Fan Yize's view, at least until the outbreak of war, I am afraid that Russia will not believe that Japan really dares to challenge Russia.

Relying on the current strength of the Red Police Corps, standing in the position of the snipe and clam competing for the benefit of the fisherman, it is indeed promising, but Fan Yize does not intend to be a simple fisherman, and the fire of this war, once it burns, should burn a little more warmly.

However, with the current strength of the Red Guard Corps, it is not possible to fully participate in this war, and tens of thousands of combatable soldiers are completely insufficient to face Japan and Russia.

In the manor's study, from the eyes of the base butler, an augmented reality image is projected, which is a map of Japan, and the location is Tokyo.

From the beginning of the establishment of the teleportation array, the base began to invade this world, and the thousand soldiers brought by Fan Yize were also preparing for this.

The base is built within the territory of the commander's control, and the base has a well-developed capture assessment system.

The Red Guards have absolute control over the area, have no power to resist, and require that the territories they occupy be able to be connected.

The starting point is to start with the chrono portal, and at present, the soldiers of the Red Guard Corps have controlled all the mountains near the chrono portal, and today the base also officially admits that the area around the chrono portal is successfully occupied by Fan Yize.

It is so simple to occupy a no-man's land, regardless of the will and level of the country, that is, as long as it is a no-man's land, the Red Guard Corps can complete the occupation.

It's like Siberia in Russia, Alaska in the United States.

But there is one thing, from the starting point, the place occupied, must be able to be connected.

Therefore, even if Fan Yize sends soldiers to the no-man's land of Siberia or to Alaska, the base will not admit to occupying the area.

Therefore, Fan Yize can only focus on Japan, but Japan is a country with scarce mineral resources.

Fortunately, in this era, Japan still has a certain amount of mineral resources, and Japan's mineral resources are varied, and it once had the reputation of "mineral museum".

At this time, Japan was also an exporter of copper, with abundant reserves of lead and zinc, and some large, well-known coal mines. However, compared with other countries in the world with the same population size, it is relatively poor in terms of both the total mineral reserves and the per capita reserves.

At the end of the twentieth century, among the various mineral resources, only limestone resources were still abundant, while other resources, especially oil, coal, uranium and other energy resources, were particularly lacking. This has become even more prominent after the rapid development of its industry, which requires a large amount of mineral resources.

World War I and World War II Japan consumed a lot of national strength, and there were also natural mineral resources that were not well stored in the country.

At this moment, on the augmented reality map of the base, there is a copper ore vein and a lead ore within the buildable range.
