412 The Liberation of Eastern Siberia

Outside the empty St. Petersburg docks, there were only a few lone warships left, and the sailors who were lucky not to be selected were lazily carrying out maintenance work, even if they didn't even notice the appearance of a few men with wide-brimmed hats at the intersection. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※

"We're late, Comrade Martov."

"I don't think so." Pointing to the sailors who were doing nothing, Martov said: "Look at the sailors, we should let them join as soon as possible, as long as we can unite the majority, then we can overthrow the rule of the Normanov dynasty!" ”

In the face of the fanatical Martov, Lenin frowned: "Comrade Martov, it can't and shouldn't be like that, although they are all victims, but we must guarantee the purity of the organization and not let him overflow." ”

"No, Comrade Vladimir, I think it is necessary to expand the power of the organization, so that we can speed up the overthrow of the evil Tsar." Martov seemed to be firm in his thoughts, so he hurriedly waved his hand.

Lenin wanted to say a few more words, but Delins next to him shook his head: "Two, we are not here to argue. ”

Lenin glanced at Derins, the Pole he had saved in Germany had become his good assistant, and the important thing was that his heart to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the Tsar was stronger than anyone else, so under his ***, now he also joined the Bolshevik Party and became a trusted comrade.

Martov also did not want to clash with Lenin so early, so he immediately changed his tune: "Comrade Vladimir, I think it's time for us to act, the tsar's army has fallen in Siberia, the navy has all left here, and if we can take this opportunity to launch a revolution, we will definitely be able to overthrow Nicholas II." ”

In fact, since the Brashevik Party grew stronger, some left-leaning ideas began to appear in the party, believing that the Tsar's rule should be overthrown by force immediately, but in fact, Nicholas II's foundation is still very strong at the moment, and those nobles with vested interests do not agree with him.

Seeing that Lenin did not speak for a long time, Martov mistakenly thought that Lenin felt unprepared, and continued: "Comrade Vladimir, you can rest assured of weapons and troops, we have already purchased some from abroad, and Comrade Vissarionovich has already raised some funds in the Caucasus, which is enough for us to start a revolution!" ”

"Vissarionovich in the Caucasus?!" Delins's eyes lit up, he had been looking for this name for a long time, but he didn't expect to hear about it at this time, and he immediately remembered it.

"Comrade Martov, I don't think we're ready yet, we have to wait until we get the support of some nobles!"

"What! The support of the nobility? Comrade Lenin! Don't you think it's enough for them to oppress the people? Why contact them? Martov excitedly said: "I think we are capable, so I insist on making a revolution!" ”

"What do you think, Delrins?" Lenin turned to Delins, who had not spoken, and asked.

"Comrade Lenin, I have come to join the revolution and overthrow the Tsar and return the Poles, I can continue to wait, but if the Tsar's army loses in the Far East, then I don't mind rubbing salt in his wounds." Delins thought about it for a moment, and then said what he was ready to do.

"Alright then, let's wait until summer." At the insistence of the two men, Lenin, although he still felt that it was too early, knew that this was a good opportunity to let others know the ideas of the Bolshevik Party.

As the three of them quickly separated to contact some naval personnel, a telegram quietly sent from St. Petersburg, arrived in France, and flew to Hong Kong through a relay there, and finally arrived at Li Mo's desk. (Full text reading, all in. (.i. Want. Wen. Learning Network)

"This is a telegram that I just received." After Li Mo handed the telegram to Li Enfu, he asked, "Mr. Li, what do you think should be done?" ”

After Li Enfu read the telegram, he handed him over to Chen Ping on the side, thought for a while and asked: "Your Majesty, I have a question before this, do you really think that this Brashevik Party will go to the rule of the Tsar in the future?" ”

Li Mo was speechless, he couldn't tell the two that he had traveled through time, and he knew five hundred years before and a hundred years later, right? After thinking about it, he said: "Mr. Li, I don't want to say anything else, I'm sure you've seen their information before, the set of things they preach is very demagogic among the workers, and the workers are one of the important cornerstones of the country, and I don't say that you are also very clear about the current living conditions of workers and peasants in Russia, they may not necessarily succeed this time, but if they take advantage of this expanded influence to infiltrate more peasants, then I am afraid that it will form a prairie fire." ”

Li Enfu frowned, obviously there was a flicker in these words, he had no way of knowing how Li Mo thought that this Blashevik Party would become a big problem, but he had seen a lot of Li Mo's magic, and there was almost no wrong thing about his judgment for so many years, so after thinking about it, he said: "Since you think so, Your Majesty, then I have three strategies." ”

"Oh? Say. ”

"The best policy is not to move." Li Enfu's eyes flashed, and he continued: "Don't touch any of the darkness we have laid, let them make trouble by themselves, the disadvantage of this is that their influence will expand, and the advantage is that Nicholas II has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, so I estimate that it will be difficult for them to succeed, and they can only continue to lurk after making trouble for a while, so that we will have enough time to infiltrate, and we will not expose the chess, and use our strength at a critical moment!" ”

"The next strategy is to mobilize all means to help them and try to overthrow Nicholas II, but I estimate that it will be difficult to succeed in this for the time being, but the advantage is that our participation will inevitably make Sheng, and Nicholas will have to temporarily give up fighting against us in Siberia in order to consolidate power. The downside is that all of our moves will be exposed, and once Nicholas II knows that we are meddling, I am afraid that it will be difficult to interfere again in the future. ”

Li Mo nodded, Li Enfu was right.

Gang, it seems to be a good choice at the moment, but as a traverser, he knows very well that the Brasheviks are not ready, and even the gang may not necessarily succeed, because at this time, after all, it is not a war with huge consumption, and the loss of desolate Siberia will only allow Russia to focus on Europe, but it is what Britain and France want to see, so even if Russia is defeated, it will quickly get a blood transfusion to be restarted, and Britain and France and other countries definitely do not want to see Nicholas II overthrown at this time, so at this moment the gang can only expose its layout in EuropeIt is very likely to arouse the alarm of all countries and make them feel that they are beginning to meddle in European affairs, which is a taboo in the white world! At that time, it is very likely that the countries will support Nicholas II with all their might, and the weak revolutionary party will be eliminated by several countries with all their might, and then the plan to use red to contain Europe and make trouble for Europe in the future will not succeed.

He is not afraid of Russia alone, but if Britain and France fully support it, he is afraid that he will be dragged into endless border conflicts, which is not the purpose of this war.

If they don't help, they will use their strength at a critical moment, and when they become stronger, they will use the catastrophe to launch abruptly, and then quickly clear some of the main backbones, then their strength will not be able to concentrate as in later generations, and at that time, all countries are in full swing with each other, and they will definitely be powerless to interfere in Russia's internal affairs, so they can fish in troubled waters and benefit on both sides.

Thinking of this, Li Mo suddenly picked up the telegram again and asked, "What should this person do according to Mr.'s idea?" ”

"It's easy, kill it!" Li Enfu bared his teeth and said with a cold breath in his mouth: "This person is now rampant in the Caucasus, robbing banks, kidnapping and extortion, it is simply all evil, even for the revolution, this kind of thing is a crime, if he is really said by the emperor, he will be in a high position in the future, then such a person is very dangerous!" ”

Chen Ping, who has never been born, also nodded in agreement: "I also have this opinion!" Because this kind of person, who has experienced the ups and downs, the means are vicious, they know very well the law of survival of the jungle, and they will definitely do whatever it takes to strengthen themselves, if he is on top, he will definitely concentrate his strength and military, and forget the previous ideals, then the threat to us will be great! ”

The left and right men said to kill at the same time, obviously both of them don't like this kind of person, to be honest, Li Mo is not used to it, in the later generations, his brilliance is covered with too much blood and killing, and Chen Ping is right, once he is in power, I am afraid that there will be a phenomenon of rolling steel in the future, so it is necessary to strangle these people in infancy.

Thinking of this, Li Mo nodded to Chen Ping, this action already meant that some people would disappear.

As if trying to forget about this decision, Li Mo quickly stood up and walked to the map, and asked, "By the way, how is the Russian fleet now?" ”

"Hehe" Speaking of this topic, Chen Ping suddenly laughed, and after looking at Li Enfu, he smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, your five remote-controlled boats have taken the life of Roger Winster, and now those Russian sailors are asked by him to be on standby day and night, and a few days ago they also shelled British fishing boats, resulting in the death of several people, and now the two countries are entangled in this matter, and along the way, there are too many ships that have been shelled, and now European newspapers have called the Russian expeditionary fleet the mad dog fleet." ”

"Mad Dog Fleet." Li Mo muttered and said with a smile: "Go and tell Duan Fei, anything is fine, as long as you don't let them arrive comfortably, I want to see if they have the strength to fight when they get here!" ”

After speaking, Li Mo made a gesture to Du Dazhuang, who immediately lifted the curtain covering half of the map, and after seeing the situation map of the northern front, he flew up to him and asked, "Is there any situation in the north?" ”

Chen Ping and Li Enfu immediately walked to the map, took the baton handed by Da Zhuang and pointed at Bo Li and Hailan Pao, and now drew a circle here: "On the eastern front, at present, the Marine Division and the three infantry divisions have formed an encirclement of the two places and are launching a tentative attack. ”

"Angarsk on the middle line is also currently in a semi-encircled state, Kuropatkin is too hesitant, if he broke through with all his strength before, maybe we can't stop it, but now that it has begun to snow, it is impossible to go back, so he used a lot of barbed wire and pillboxes to lock himself in and wait for help."

"The Western Front is more complicated, Nicholas II's strict order seems to have made it effective, Zalubayev is currently leading the army to attack the Ili and Tangnu Uliang overseas sieges, trying to use the numerical advantage to force us away from the Siberian railway line, before he received Nicholas II's reprimand, taking advantage of the fact that we have not yet closed the encirclement, with 100,000 troops along the way to protect the way, has transported 50,000 urgently conscripted troops to Angarsk, so Sun Jiugong called and hoped that we can change the current western defense strategy, Allow him to take the initiative. ”

"What does he think?"

"His plan is to transfer the 4th Infantry Division and the 10th Infantry Division, give up the entanglement with the Russian army, and rush to Tomsk at full speed, and after quickly occupying it, relying on the fortress built by the Russians, completely cut off Russia's hope of using the railway line to support the center."

Looking at Chen Ping's heavier place, Li Mo frowned, there were not many troops in the Northwest Theater, but now Sun Jiugong wanted to transfer two infantry divisions to Tomsk, which was more than 100 kilometers away, would he escape the risk?

And Tomsk is only a small fortress, not enough to support 40,000 troops, once the Siberian artery is completely cut off, then in the winter there is no other road to go, where is the Russian army bound to concentrate all its forces, the northwest is originally difficult to supply, if it is faced with hundreds of thousands of troops onslaught, will it bury two divisions?

"Sun Jiugong means that on this basis, he will continue to send a cavalry division straight out of Petropavlovsk, which is an important Russian entry and exit point in Western Siberia, he thinks that as long as we can threaten here, or even just a few shots, then the Russian army will have to be guarded, according to his calculations, if the surprise attack is successful, it will contain at least 50,000 troops of the Russian army, and in the case of Russia's slow mobilization of troops, Tomsk's two infantry divisions are enough to support until next spring, will ensure that we complete the general offensive on the Eastern Front and the Central Front! ”

Just let the two infantry divisions go forward more than 100 kilometers, and now the idea of Petropavlovsk, more than 600 kilometers away, this Sun Jiugong has a really big appetite, but although this move is a risky move, but there is also some truth, Petropavlovsk, located in Western Siberia, is not the same name and surname on the Kamchatka Peninsula that is a deserted place, here as early as more than 100 years ago to build a fortress, is an important pass in and out of Siberia, if you can threaten there, it is estimated that half of the Russian army will be scared to death.

And now that it is snowing in Siberia, the Air Force cannot go to support it in this weather, so the speed of military operations must be accelerated, and if it drags on for another month, then all large-scale military offensives will basically come to a standstill, and it is necessary to take advantage of the early elimination of an enemy!

On October 3, 1903, after a buffer period of nearly a month, two marine divisions and three infantry divisions of the Chinese Army, with the help of more than 400 artillery pieces, launched a general attack on Hailan Pao and Boli.

Finally, after 15 days of continuous fighting, the Eastern Front Army of the Russian Far Eastern Theater suffered 35,000 casualties and all weapons and ammunition were almost exhausted.

On October 18, the three reserve divisions of the Chinese Army marched into Eastern Siberia with a large amount of cold-proof equipment, which means that the main battles on the Eastern Front have all ended, and the reserves will take over from the main force to do the follow-up clean-up work.

On October 19, the two Marine Divisions, which had just won a great victory, marched to Petropavlovsk on the Kamchatka Peninsula and the two major cities of Okhotsk and Yakutsk*** in Eastern Siberia.

At the same time, the Western Front also suddenly became tense, and the 4th Mechanized Infantry Division and the 9th Infantry Division of the Chinese Army, with 20,000 laborers of the Construction Corps carrying a large amount of ammunition and provisions, suddenly drilled out of the border line from the Tangnu Ulianghai and quickly occupied the Tomsk fortress all the way.

This news made Zalubayev, the commander of the Western Front of the Russian army, shocked, because it meant that the Central Route Army would no longer receive any supplies and assistance this winter, so he hurriedly mobilized troops to give up the entanglement on the Chinese border, hoping to recover Tomsk and ensure the safety of the railway line.

But what he didn't expect was that in just a few days, the Chinese army took advantage of the manpower at hand, relied on the cold winter, built a long high wall there with water and ice, and built a complete defense relying on the high wall.

Just as he was about to attack, another bad news came: Petropavlovsk in Western Siberia was raided by Chinese cavalry, and tens of thousands of tons of supplies and grain and grass stored there were all burned, and the 5,000 troops stationed there also suffered heavy casualties.

This news frightened him so much that he couldn't even care about Tomsk, knowing that once the opponent's cavalry continued to go deeper, the front would be directed at Yekaterinburg, which is the heart of the Eurasian continent, so he hurriedly returned to Petropavlovsk with a large army to ensure the safety of this strategic town.

On 30 October, the Chinese Prime Minister's Office issued another proclamation, announcing that the Chinese army had recovered all the territory of Eastern Siberia east of the Lena River, including the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Sakhalin Islands, and at the same time issued a proclamation demanding that the Russians who continue to illegally occupy Chinese territory in the above-mentioned places leave within a month limit, otherwise they will be expelled by the army.

As the weather in Siberia became colder and colder, the recruitment and mobilization of the Russian army was slow, and the northern battlefield was as stiff as ice and snow, at this time, everyone was interested in continuing to fight on land, so their eyes shifted to the expeditionary fleet that was still faltering on the expedition.
