Forty Zero Moltke Jr. is going to the Far East

"There was a war. 【 I want: super fast update ]"

Like the cumulonimbus clouds that had been building over Europe for a long time, almost everyone felt like they were sulking when these three words began to spread along the telephone lines in various cities across Europe.

It has been a long time, and eight years have passed since the Battle of Tsushima, which shocked the world, and now it is almost a generation, but the hatred between China and Russia has continued unabated, and even in the years after the signing of the agreement, the Chinese Navy has never allowed warships flying the Russian flag to cross the border.

After several years of rapid development, they are finally openly baring their fangs at the giant polar bears, and they are advancing towards Siberia like a pack of mad dogs that do not know whether they are alive or dead.

But compared with the opponent, the reaction of the Russians was too slow, even if Cassini learned from the Chinese Foreign Ministry two days in advance that he would be invited to attend the press conference on 1 August, presumably that it would be the date of the declaration of war, and sent back an urgent telegram, but the madman in St. Petersburg still arrogantly believed that only Russia could declare war on China, and China would never fire the first shot!

But in fact, only ten minutes after the declaration of war, the artillery shells have already whistled from the sea, although the opponent's three heavy cruisers have not yet broken through the waterway to make up for the mines, and the damage caused by long-distance artillery is not very large, but because of their successful containment, everyone did not expect that the Chinese army would land from the Sea of Japan so quickly, when the two marine divisions that suddenly landed from Ternei quickly intersected parallel to the west, everyone found out, Large swaths of land, including Vladivostok and the Twin Cities, have been lost to the rear of the Siberian administrative capital, Boli.

And when an infantry division rushed out of the Tinning Guta almost in the same way as the Ussuri River to join the Marine Division, it was equivalent to announcing that nearly 50,000 officers and men of the Russian Eastern Front Army stationed in Vladivostok and Shuangcheng were surrounded!

This was a classic strategy of rapid interspersed encirclement, in which the Chinese army took advantage of the initiative to declare war and Russia's arrogance to surround Vladivostok, which the Russians called the first fortress in the Far East, with lightning speed, and built a dam between the Ussuri River and the Sea of Japan in just three days, completing a perfect cut.

Standing in front of the map, looking at the horizontal line and a few arrows that Ludendorff had sketched on the map, Moltke's eyes suddenly flashed, as if he had thought of something interesting, but in an instant, it dimmed, and it became as if nothing had happened before.

Ludendorff didn't notice the changes behind him, and as a staff officer, his job was to assist the army generals in outlining the lines of each war, and then allowing the generals to analyze the gains and losses through those lines.

His hand was very steady, which Moltke Jr. admired very much, so he asked: "Ludendorff, tell me what you think of the ** team?" ”

"Not yet, His Majesty the Chief of the General Staff."

Ludendorff turned his head, saluted and looked at the map again, and replied bluntly: "Vladivostok is an important Russian fortress in the Far East, and after the last time it damaged the Pacific Fleet with Huahaiyang, it does not mean that its geographical location has declined, in fact, according to our statistics, 80% of the transportation volume in the Russian Far East before the opening of the Trans-Siberian Railway still needs to be maintained by Vladivostok, although Russia cannot send fleets to go, but they have also transported hundreds of cannons there through French shipping companies in the past few years, Tens of thousands of shells.

&nbā trick deceived so although he stretched the battle line very long this time, he still threw the first blow at Vladivostok, which was to use the sea advantage to quickly cut off Vladivostok's connection with the outside world, and then surround and occupy it.

In fact, I personally think that this is very correct, because of the unique conditions and geographical location of Vladivostok, the Russians have deployed a large number of troops there, and the ammunition depots of their Eastern Front troops are also concentrated there, and now after being cut off there, it is equivalent to kicking the Russian Eastern Front troops out of the game! ”

"Ludendorff, are you too optimistic? Biedlinger's base camp was in Boli, where there were more than 100,000 garrisons but only 60,000 Chinese, and he could work with the Vladivostok garrison to break through the blockade and implement counter-encirclement. ※※※※※I'm going to have a net of � (5) (1) * Ο * ΝΕΤ * * " Little Moltke looked at Ludendorff, and although his words were full of suspicion, the smile on the corner of his mouth became thicker and thicker.

"No, I'm not so good."

"Is it a well?"

"Because Vladivostok, it's still Vladivostok!" That smile seemed to encourage Ludendorff, he immediately picked up the baton and pointed at the position of Vladivostok, and said: "Because about three-quarters of the weapons and equipment of the Russian Eastern Front Army are stored here, and if you lose here, General Biedlinger will face a situation where there is no rice to cook, and the important thing is that after the last war, Russia strengthened the defense of Vladivostok and placed all the main forces here, and although their army in Boli has 100,000, it is all temporarily recruited from Siberia, Not only is the training time short, the key thing is that they lack weapons and ammunition, and many of them are armed with spears and broadswords! ”

"Your Majesty, do you think these soldiers will be able to defeat 60,000 elite marines and infantry?"

"But they have Vladivostok, where the main army can completely rush out."

"Yes, but there is a problem here, that is, once the army in Vladivostok leaves the cement and the fortress, it will face the powerful artillery fire of the Chinese army, as far as we know, Li Mo has never been stingy with weapons and equipment, and his internal peace council has never delayed appropriation, so each of his infantry divisions has eighty-eight cannons, and at least 300 mortars of that kind used at close range, and also has a hundred machine guns, which is even far more than the imperial army, And their opponents did not have more than 800 guns on the Eastern Front and the Central Line combined, and there were only 100 machine guns. ”

"So I think that if Biedlinger doesn't want to be sent to prison by their tsar, the best way is to use Vladivostok as a meat grinder, constantly depleting the Chinese army, and then taking advantage of their weakness to make an all-out attack from Boli."

"But if he wants to take the risk, then the squadron can use machine guns and artillery in turn to quickly consume the army of the Eastern Front and quickly move towards Boeli, where is the death hole of Biedlinger!"

"So when do you think the Chinese will be able to lay Vladivostok?" Moltke asked, narrowing his eyes.

This time, Ludendorff shook his head and seemed to be a little uncertain and said: "I don't know, but Vladivostok already has a well-established defense level after being rebuilt, and there are 50,000 people stationed in it, maybe it will be a tough battle." ”

"Well, one more question, where do you think the decisive battle between Russia and China will be?"

The fifty-six-year-old German chief of the General Staff of the German Army, whose thinking jumped sharply, made Ludendorff secretly unable to keep up with the rhythm, looked at the map and thought for a long time, and then aimed his baton at a place.

"Here!"

Looking at the place names under the baton, Moltke nodded with satisfaction: "Ludendorff, I am going to see His Majesty the Emperor now, you go and arrange it immediately, and go to the Far East with me tomorrow." ”

"To the Far East? You're going to the Far East! ”

Ludendorff looked at Moltke in astonishment, wondering why the emperor's trusted chief of the General Staff suddenly offered to go to the Far East: "Did he go and see the war with his own eyes?"

Little Moltke didn't explain, just stood there and slowly asked the orderlies to fasten their clothes, and after cleaning up, he turned his head and suddenly asked: "Ludendorff, if you are asked to command two armies, can you break through that line of defense?" ”

"The line of defense, the line of defense?" Ludendorff's thoughts didn't come back for a while, he looked into Moltke's eyes, and after half a ring, his mouth suddenly opened wide, and then he shook his head affirmatively: "No." ”

Moltke Jr. was satisfied, because at least the staff officer he favored was not as fond of boasting as others, and looked up at the huge map, and said, "Ludendorff, have you not noticed?" While the world was paying attention to the power of the Leemer Navy, their Army was actually improving, and they had grasped the true meaning of the Army. ”

"The true meaning of the Army?"

"Speed!"

“!”

Shen Hao rode on horseback and beckoned his company to accelerate, "Although the cavalry has already raised the speed, in Shen Hao's opinion, it is not enough.

This is a race against speed, in order to quickly seize the initiative in the initial stage, the command has dispatched almost all the mobile forces that can be used, that is, to compress the opponent's forces as much as possible and cut them apart before the Russian army can react.

This time, "Shen Hao's mission of the 1st Cavalry Division and 2nd Regiment is a small but strategically important town in front, Nebuchu!"

More than 200 years ago, the Manchu Qing and Russia reached the famous Treaty of Nebuchu here, which not only lost the vast area east of Nebuchu and west of the Ergun River, but also fueled Russia's expansion ambitions in the Far East, and Nebuchu was included in the Russian territory.

Therefore, from the very beginning of the formulation of the battle plan, the recovery of Nebuchu has become a big dream of every commander and fighter, and now this good opportunity is finally placed in front of the second regiment!

As a sharp knife company, Shen Hao knew that he had a chance to reach Nebuchu first, so he was anxious, even more than when he rode the Forbidden City, he was looking forward to it.

The comrades-in-arms rolled forward with the sound of horses' hooves, and everyone had only one dream in their hearts, which was to plant the fluttering double-headed eagle battle flag into Nebuchu!

"Drive."

Seeing that everyone was chasing after him, Shen Hao also immediately took the reins of the horse, but just as he was about to turn the war horse back to the front of the team, he only heard a few gunshots, and the spearhead who opened the way had a firefight!

Due to the proximity of the gunfire, almost the moment he raised his binoculars, hundreds of cloaked cavalry troops had already appeared thousands of kilometers away.

Cossack!

In the telescope, his pupils shrank into a little cold star, although he expected to encounter the enemy, after all, there were more than twenty enemy troops in front of him, but he still didn't expect to encounter the Cossack cavalry known as the elite of Russia in the first battle!

"Engage the enemy!"

Almost without thinking, Shen Hao had already pulled out the barge gun violently, and the formation that was still loose immediately began to gather, rushing towards the Cossack cavalry in the distance, who obviously did not expect to encounter here.

Although the 1st Cavalry Division is not as famous as the Cossacks, it does not mean that they are weak, but on the contrary, after joining a large number of Mongolian cavalry, after being infiltrated by the ideas of traditional Mongolian cavalry warfare, the tactics and flexibility of the troops are much stronger.

With Shen Hao's loud shout, more than two hundred cavalrymen quickly adjusted their horses, and the adjustment method learned from their Mongolian comrades-in-arms allowed everyone to adjust their rhythm within a dozen steps, and began to charge, and the formation began to change from loose to dense, and at the same time, the soldiers also gave up the rifles on their backs, and all chose the short but fast rate of fire, and the shell guns with more ammunition as weapons.

"Mark!"

The horses neighed, the iron hooves rolled, the warriors brandished their shell guns and shouted at the same time, and the mere two hundred men burst out with an aura no less than that of a huge cavalry charge, like a hot torrent rushing towards the Cossack cavalry.

The opponents were also worthy of the elite troops of the European reputation, and knew that this kind of close-range encounter required speed and sprint, so they also abandoned their rifles and drew the cavalry swords that had made countless enemies tremble.

"Fire!"

But this time they had clearly miscalculated, and when one shout after another of shouts of slaughter came out of their opponents' mouths, they were faced not with the same bright cavalry swords, but with two hundred shell guns with twenty rounds of rounds.

"Bang bang."

In an instant, countless bullets pierced the distance between the two sprinting cavalry, and the dozen or so Cossack cavalrymen in front of them fell from their horses without even making a reaction.

"Spread out!"

Staring at a Cossack cavalryman who rushed in, after putting this guy down with several shots in a row, Shen Hao shouted again, and in the shouting, the cavalry company that was rushing side by side suddenly spread out to the two wings, and it changed formation again in just a few dozen steps, and the Cossack cavalry who sprinted staggered shoulder-to-shoulder, and when the opponent was caught in the middle of the short moment, no one knew how many bullets rushed into the middle of the enemy, and even a few fighters threw the grenades that had been prepared.

In the explosion and the roar of the bullets, I saw the proud Cossack cavalry fall off their horses one by one, and at the same time, they all widened their eyes, as if they did not expect that the opponent would ignore the glory of the knight and suddenly avoid it at the last moment before the duel!

In the explosion of the rumbling grenade, the whirling shrapnel and steel balls tore apart one Cossack cavalry after another, and by the time Shen Hao avoided a snow-bright cavalry knife and turned the horse's head upside down with a shot, nearly half of the small group of cavalry with the same number as himself had fallen.

"Come again!"

Almost at the same time as Shen Hao shouted, the well-behaved Cossack cavalry began to unload their rifles one after another, but it was too late at this time, and the cavalry company that turned around took advantage of the high rate of fire and large ammunition load of the shell guns to constantly knock down the enemy.

When the skirmish ended twenty minutes later, only fifty of the more than 200 Cossack cavalrymen of the former feared had fled in spite of their comrades.

When the blood dripped from the corpse's cloak and slowly poured into the desolate land of Siberia, Shen Hao used three short tactical commands to declare that Siberia was no longer the territory of the Cossacks with whirlwind speed.
