398 The confidence to declare war
"Even though it is July, the hot season of the year in Vladivostok, when two submarines sent a commando team of fifty people to a place only a few hundred meters from the shore, Dong Dahai, who jumped into the water, still shivered involuntarily. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※
When they arrived at the shore twenty minutes later, everyone immediately stripped off their skins and water, because this is already a war zone, and any small problems will affect the mission, you must know that the sacrifice paid on the battlefield of these Chinese New Year's Eve Eagles is less than half of the disease.
After gathering the scattered team members, Dong Dahai quickly led everyone to run in the predetermined direction, panting and panting accompanied by black shadows, even if someone saw it, they probably thought it was a group of hungry wolves.
After a few special bamboo clip sounds, he finally saw the intelligence officer dressed as an old farmer, and said with a smile: "Brother, you are not badly dressed. ”
The intelligence officer also seemed to be a difficult master, and after glaring at Nighthawk, he said angrily: "Come on, don't be nervous, if you have the ability, you can also try to work for the Russians for a few months?" ”
Do coolies? Give it back to the Russians! How's that going, I'm a nighthawk.
Dong Dahai hurriedly avoided the topic, and when the nighthawks occupied the surroundings, he pulled the intelligence officer to sit down cross-legged and asked, "How is the situation?" Did you find a way? ”
The matter was urgent, and the intelligence officer didn't have time to talk to Dong Dahai, shaking his head and his face was solemn: "Vladivostok is located in a remote area, and we have been repairing intermittently after blockading the open sea, and we have been relying on French freighters to and fro, but the Governor Alekseev was probably really scared by us, so he repaired the arms warehouse far from the shore, and canceled the previous idea of using wood, and all of them were reinforced with solid stone.
As soon as he heard this, Dong Dahai was in trouble, and the task of his trip was to take the lead in destroying this large arsenal of the Russian army in the Far East!
Because according to the intelligence sent by France, in the past few years, France has begun to help Russia transport a lot of good things, not to mention the hundreds of mines used to block the waterways, there are at least 50,000 shells alone.
This is not to worry the General Staff because Russia has hoarded a large number of mines here, and it is said that the total number may exceed 30,000! Nighthawk has been playing with mines for a long time, so he knows the dangers of this kind of thing, these guys buried in the soil are more difficult to remove than the big brothers in the water, and if tactics are right, 30,000 mines are enough to make a regiment of soldiers die in vain.
So after getting the information, the General Staff didn't even bother to do the habitual multi-line confirmation of accuracy, and even if it was a legend, someone had to be sent to destroy this place.
"It seems that the navy is too ruthless and there are disadvantages!"
After the intelligence officer roughly drew the location and defense map of the arsenal, Dong Dahai's brows deepened, far away from the coast, the location was **, and the surroundings were almost open, plus a full 2,000 soldiers stationed there, and it was not enough for people to carry out sneak attacks by themselves!
And the all-stone structure should at least be able to smash open the 152mm heavy artillery shells that were just installed in the troops, but the Nighthawk is a lightly armed unit, although it carries TNT, but it also has to be touchable?
Isn't there a way to do it?
"It's not that there is no way"
The intelligence officer smacked his lips, Dong Dahai sighed bitterly in his heart, didn't he just ridicule, why are the people in the intelligence department so stingy? So he hurriedly stuffed two packs of cigarettes and said with a smile: "Cuban tobacco." ”
It's a smoke!
The intelligence officer smiled and picked it up, in fact, even if Dong Dahai didn't give it, he had to say the way, but this way made him feel that he made up for how much he came here to do a few months of hard labor, and revenge for being ridiculed by Dong Dahai after meeting him, which became serious, pointed to the location of the warehouse towards Shuangcheng and drew a line, and said: "The Russian army probably noticed something, so every few days there will be a team of chariots and horses to pull ammunition to Shuangcheng, and yesterday I also saw them pull out a few cannons, so .........,." ”
Without waiting for the intelligence officer to finish speaking, Dong Dahai's eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean to take the opportunity to hijack the convoy, and then set up the cannon to bombard?" ”
The intelligence officer looked at Dong Dahai with contempt and said: "Brother, this is a big guy with an all-stone structure, and it is reinforced with cement, how many 75mm shells do you think can be smashed open?" ”
The feeling of being a brother made Dong Dahai feel more cordial was not over, the black line on his forehead was getting longer and longer, and he dared to love this guy who was really a difficult master, and immediately said: "Come on, brother, if you have any tricks, just say it, if it doesn't work, I'll lead someone to attack!" ”
The intelligence officer smiled, finally stopped selling, pointed to the edge of the warehouse and said: "There is a secret passage here, which was originally used for the fire reservoir to walk water, but later found that it was impossible to divert the route, and the Russians were lazy and did not say that they wanted to fill it in. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※
It turned out that we were going to use this secret passage, but the Russians had a very solid cement foundation, and we couldn't quietly chisel it and put the ** in, but although there are Russian soldiers stationed here, the location is remote, and there are only a few guards in normal times, so you should be able to touch it quietly with your ability. ”
"Wait." Dong Dahai stopped him and said, "Didn't you say that the foundation is very strong and can't be chiseled?" So what can we do when we go in? ”
"Brother, we are a special service group, we have to work quietly, you are the army!" The intelligence officer looked at him and said, "Put more **, tear off this foundation, and this wall of the warehouse will collapse, at that time, as long as you aim the cannon at this place, you can just blast it." ”
"How do you know the walls are going to fall down......" hoof.
The intelligence officer pulled out a piece of grass, put it in his mouth and chewed it while saying triumphantly: "Brother, I used to study architecture in the United States, specializing in building houses, and don't forget, this warehouse is all built by local Chinese workers, if this is not clear, my coolies have not been in vain in the past few months?!" ”
"Studying architecture? Then why don't you go to the Ministry of Construction. A nighthawk on the side blinked, very curious why this guy didn't live a decent life, but went to the intelligence department to run around with his head in his head?
"I love this errand, it's exciting, it allows me to travel around the world, it allows me to see buildings from multiple countries, and it's ......." The intelligence officer grinned" suddenly lowered his voice, raised his slap and shook it: "There is a benefit to this errand, the huā fee for sleeping with women can be reimbursed, do you know how many Russian girls I slept with in a few months here?" ”
Looking at the informant who was dressed like an old peasant, but turned his slap over and over the intelligence officer, Dong Dahai finally couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth: ", this is okay!" ”
Regardless of whether the intelligence officer heard this foul word or not, at least he solved the big problem in the mission, as long as he could blow up this large Far Eastern arms depot of the Russian army, even if he slept with the woman of Nicholas II, it would be no problem.
"Match the table, start assigning tasks!"
When the Nighthawks arrived at the outskirts of the warehouse under the guidance of the informants and hid the road, the scorching sun finally came out, and as the sun got higher and higher, a convoy of horses finally appeared in the distance as expected.
Amid the sound of horses' hooves, a group of Russian cavalrymen leaned on their horses a little lazily, with their guns on their backs and their heads bowed, as if they were wilted by the scorching sun overhead.
Behind the convoy, hundreds of Chinese laborers, under the watchful eye of the soldiers, drove the wagons full of ammunition, but in their hearts they hated these Russian soldiers who occupied the land of the Chinese and used the Chinese as cattle and horses.
Especially when the news that the domestic army was going to fight began to spread, it seemed that everyone's hearts became hot and restless, even more anxious than the sun in the sky.
But as the days passed, there was still no movement in the south, "You must know that it will snow here in three months, and that kind of overwhelming snowstorm day is not suitable for war."
Everyone muttered quietly, studying when the south would call" They were all about to start shaking their heads and sighing, and when they estimated that there was no hope for this year, they only heard a crisp bang suddenly exploded in their ears, and then the sound became as dense as a torrential rain.
When they began to look around in horror, they suddenly found that the Russian soldiers on their horses began to fall one by one, and red blood exploded from them, and even the Russian infantry next to them also fell.
With the back dozen or so imprisoned Russian soldiers, they didn't even care about the convoy and turned around and fled, "Dozens of big men in legendary military uniforms suddenly rushed out of the dense forest next to them.
It's them, it's them!
It is the army of our Chinese people!
After Dong Dahai took the Nighthawk and saluted these Chinese workers, he didn't care about the communication, and immediately pushed the two 75mm guns towards the hillside in the distance, "The rest of the people are in a hurry and start to move the ammunition box.
Seeing the soldiers pulling the cannons, the Chinese workers immediately put down the reins and ran over to help, and with some efforts finally pushed the heavy cannons up the mountain, countless Russian soldiers have been killed from the distant warehouse area.
In front of the menacing Russian soldiers, the Chinese workers began to worry, but a few minutes later, when a loud bang was heard in the distance, and a large hole was immediately opened in one corner of the warehouse group, their hearts solidified as Nighthawk began to adjust the muzzle of the cannon, and two yellow-orange shells were stuffed into the barrel.
In the distance below the mountain, the sound of countless horses' hooves began to sound, and groups of Russian soldiers began to rush here, and the Chinese workers became nervous, and they did not know what these strange and strange men were going to do.
In this impatience, only two thumps were heard, and the discharged cannonballs seemed to have eyes, and they burrowed through the hole filled with debris in the distance, and then ...... The old world seemed to explode, and as huge mushroom clouds suddenly rose, the ground under their feet shook! Everyone's eyes widened, even the soldiers who had arrived from the warehouse area were stunned, they couldn't believe that the impregnable ammunition depot had been completely torn apart by an explosion and two shells.
"Let's go!" Looking at the sluggish Russian soldiers at the foot of the mountain, Dong Dahai smiled at the corner of his mouth, beckoned to the Chinese workers, and disappeared into the dense forest with everyone.
With this explosion, the whole of Siberia seemed to be boiling, under the command of the Special Operations Command, more than a dozen reconnaissance battalions and Nighthawks worked together, piercing back and forth on this vast land, countless grain and grass were burned, soldiers and officers became the objects of hunting, explosions, fires and gunsmoke appeared every day, and even spread to the main artery of the Trans-Siberian Railway, until a train full of soldiers was blown apart, Russia noticed that if it did not eradicate these people, it was afraid that it would lose the war.
Faced with the situation that the war had quietly begun, Kuropatkin hesitated, and when the telegraph and telephone lines were cut apart, he could only send someone to report the news to St. Petersburg on the one hand, and on the other hand sent a large number of mobile Cossack cavalry patrols to "try to expel these guys who have not yet seen a shadow, but in response to the lower-ranking officers' proposal that they should immediately declare war, they stubbornly ordered the troops to hold together to prevent being attacked without the emperor's order."
Special warfare is special warfare, although it can rely on elusive harassment and attacks to constantly hit the other side and consume the other side, but in the face of hundreds of thousands of troops, the strength of such a scale is far from enough.
Li Mo also knew this, and as the declaration of war approached a little bit, his heart seemed to be uneasy, but when an economic report was handed in front of him, he was relieved.
The wide grape leaves blocked the sun that was raging in Beijing, and the gentle breeze blew the heat away, but these still did not make him feel more comfortable than the statistics in his hand.
It has been 14 years since I returned to this world, and I have been stationed in Hawaii for 12 years, and I have been stationed in the Northeast for 9 years, and I have been stationed in Beijing for 6 years, and I have completed the reunification of the North and the South for 4 years!
From the age of 12 to the age of 26, time seems to be passing, and his goal is getting closer little by little.
Few people, or even no one at all, understand that in fact, as early as the first harsh winter in Canada, they wrote a thick plan, and they are advancing little by little according to this plan.
Few people know that when the beautiful Honolulu changed in his hands in two years, in fact, he had already bought a large number of patented technologies through Chile and other countries, in the name of the Kingdom of Hawaii, when the world was not paying attention, and the machinery and equipment that filled the entire warehouse area.
When the combined fleet of the Japanese was completely annihilated and landed in the Ryukyus, it once again took advantage of the opportunity to buy much-needed machinery and materials, and once again piled up the islands.
In fact, the frenzied hoarding of reserves at that time is still working today, and if there is no kind of hoarding that seems to crush the incomprehension of funds, how can the Northeast Industrial Zone that has become a scale today?
In particular, his persistent and crazy investment in the shipbuilding industry made it possible to build three major shipyards in Dalian, Dandong and Ryukyu with world-class scale and even far ahead in some technologies after the relocation and merger of Hawaiian shipyards into the north under the current situation that the industrial capacity is still very insufficient.
Yes, there are still many deficiencies in the country.
For example, there is a serious shortage of skilled workers, and private industry and commerce have not yet fully developed, but this still cannot change the reality that China is changing rapidly! So Li Enfu and Huang Chen, who were sitting opposite, smiled and even had a hint of pride in their quiet conversation, yes, pride!
Because what they bring today is a vital piece of economic data!
As an important indicator of industrial life, steel production has always been a hard indicator, and since entering Honolulu, Li Mo has attached great importance to the development of steel.
In order to cooperate with the shipyard, he built a steel mill with an annual output of 50,000 tons of steel under the condition of small land, and built a similar steel mill after the occupation of Ryukyu, and later quietly built one in Taiwan.
But the problem is still very big, and the key is not that he is incapable, nor that he does not have resources, but that he does not have enough land.
It was not until he entered the Northeast that the situation was improved, and in two years he purchased a large number of steelmaking equipment and machinery from Britain and the United States and other countries, and finally smashed out the Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant, which can produce millions of tons of steel per year, and when the steel mill was completed and even started, he successively built the Dalian Iron and Steel Plant and Changchun Iron and Steel Plant of the same scale for three years.
At that time, many people thought he was crazy, because at that time, there were very few iron ore resources that could be exploited immediately in the three northeastern provinces, and the annual steel output of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was only 20,000 tons, and there was no need for such a large steel plant.
However, when the Maoshan iron mine was successfully located and iron ore was discovered in the three northeastern provinces, the voice of doubt gradually became smaller, but everyone still felt that it was a bit wasteful.
But today, with this statistical report, all doubts have been dissipated, from the annual output of only 100,000 tons of steel when it first entered the Northeast, to today only the three major steel mills in the Northeast can reach 2 million tons!
Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant and Taiwan Steel Mill have completed the first phase of expansion, Hainan, Shanghai Changxing Island, Guangzhou, Kunming four major steel plants have also completed the initial construction, with the increase of local resources mining, Australia and Luzon and other overseas rich mining areas of ore have also begun to transfer there, as long as there are two years, Southern Heavy Industries will also be able to provide at least two million tons of steel per year.
This is not counting the intensification of the construction of the Great Northwest Heavy Industry, Yinchuan, Baotou, Panzhi Huā, Jiayuguan, Urumqi these iron and steel plants, if there are a few more years, then the goal of achieving the national output of 10 million tons in the old year is completely realistic.
Although compared with the output of 14 million tons of the United States last year, today's China is not even a fraction of the other side's, and even one-fifth lower than the 2.5 million tons of Tsarist Russia on the whole, and it is unlikely to catch up with the United States in the next five or even ten years, but it is much stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
In just three years, the government has imported 1.7 million tons of steel from the United States and other countries, and 25,000 units of various types of machinery to meet domestic needs, which is not counting the private sector's own transactions.
This is a huge and heavy burden, for the construction needs of various places, the government deficit has now reached a staggering two billion blue coins, which is equivalent to a debt of five yuan for everyone in the country!
According to the economic report for the first half of the year, which has just been counted, tariffs alone have reached 50 million in the first half of the year, and the national fiscal revenue for half a year has reached 300 million, which is a full five times more than four years ago!
These numbers may be boring, or they may be boring, but they are the confidence!
The confidence to fight a national war with Russia!
Li Mo smiled and put down the economic report, raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
"Declare war!"
