In the end, the empire will implement a comprehensive strategy of contraction, firmly build a global territory, consolidate the foundation, and comprehensively promote the reform of democratic constitutional governance.

unawares

A military situation from the Far East aroused Li Fushou's great concern and pondered for a long time.

After the "October Revolution" in Russia in 17 years, the civil war between the royalist forces and the workers' government in Belarus caused great turmoil in Siberia and Outer Mongolia.

In 18 years, Fusang sent troops to Siberia, and the foreigners, Britain, France, and Italy also announced the dispatch of troops, and soon after, the Russian workers' army suffered a major defeat and retreated from Verkhnito Udinsk and Selengesk to Kyakhta, leaving a large gap in Central Siberia.

Fuso's westward march and subsequent support for the capture of Transbaikalia by the White Army of Semenov and the expulsion of the Red Army from Kyakhta posed a great threat to Outer Mongolia.

Not satisfied with occupying Siberia with foreign, British, French and other countries, Fuso attempted to take advantage of the "Pan-Mongol Movement" (also known as the "Great Mongolian" plan) launched by the Russian-Buryat Mongol Seminov to take over the rights and interests of Tsarist Russia in Outer Mongolia and promote the policy of expanding northward to Manchurian Mongolia.

Who is Seminov?

Originally from Transbaikal, he was a Buryat Mongol, originally a Cossack officer who served in the old Tsarist Russian army, and lived in Kulen as a child, so he knew the situation in Outer Mongolia very well.

Shortly after the October Revolution, Seminov launched a rebellion in Transbaikal, organized troops against Soviet Russia, and actively allied with Japan, "all the ordnance and uniforms used were supplied by the Fuso government for priceless".

In 18 years, under the support of Fuso, he established an anti-Soviet Russian military dictatorship in Transbaikalia, and in early 1919, he proclaimed himself lieutenant general of the Transbaikal Cossack Army.

In addition, the conflict between the Serminov bandit army and the Omsk Kolchak government supported by the Western, British, and French forces led to the Ocean Imperialist Vladivostok Command and the British army coercing the Japanese side to stop supporting Seminov.

The Seminov bandit army actively invaded Outer Mongolia and tried to use it as a strategic stronghold to establish a "unified Mongolian state" that included the Mongols of Transbaikal and Outer Mongolia, Hulunbuir, Oirat,

He even openly invited the Manchurian and Tibetan people of China to "participate" in it, openly encroaching on the northeast, northwest, Tibet and other places of China, and causing trouble in the northern provinces.

In a word, there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings.

While thinking about it, Li Fushou's expression gradually became stern, he was not thinking about the Serminov bandit army, but the white bandits with less than 10,000 people had not yet looked in his eyes.

The key point is that the rampant situation of Fuso and its re-involvement in the "Manchurian and Mongolian regions" shows that under the grand strategy of "entering North America in the east," it has not given up its strategic attempt of "going north to Manchuria-Mongolia and landing in the Far East." Its appetite is astonishing.

Sure enough, it is a white-eyed wolf that is not well raised, and it is rampant.

It seems that it is time to recite a mantra to the Fusang people, Li Fushou has made up his mind, so he turned around and strode behind the royal table and sat down, and wrote with a brush.

At this point, the Ocean Empire's policy towards the United States and Japan has taken shape, that is, suppression and containment at the same time.

Since the beginning of 19 years

The Ocean Empire tightened its financial credit to the United States and Japan, and exerted strong pressure on the two countries to repay huge loans with more than 70% of their government revenues every year, and strictly limited the scale of borrowing new debts to repay old debts.

After the implementation of this measure, the United States and Japan complained bitterly, and they were forced to pinch their noses and obediently obey because of the Pacific hegemony and unparalleled military strength of the Ocean Empire.

For 16 years, from 19 to 35 years, the United States and Japan had to spend the vast majority of their fiscal revenues on repaying loans, and very little money could be invested in the military, national economy, and people's livelihood.

Without abundant financial support, the development of military strength of the United States and Japan is far inferior to that of the same period in history, and they are unable to launch a large-scale war to resolve the situation of confrontation in North America.

Due to the embarrassment of financial constraints, Fuso could only maintain the strategy of eastward expansion into North America, but could not support the strategy of "going north to Manchuria, Mongolia", considering that this move had caused the wrath of the ocean empire, the Japanese government changed course, and could only temporarily hide the strategy of going north in its heart, waiting for future changes in the situation.

The second item is financial and military support, under the secret instruction of Li Fushou, the imperial side greatly reduced the support for the Kolchak government in Omsk, and the relevant military supplies were transferred to support the Xu warlords of the Republic of China government.

Among them, the troops stationed in Vladivostok transported more than a dozen ships of military supplies to Tianjin Port by sea, including 64 Wolf light tanks, more than 140 half-track armored vehicles, more than 400 off-road trucks, 32 96-mm guns, 32 105-mm guns, 200,000 Manlicia rifles captured from the European battlefield, 16 149-mm howitzers of the Austro-Hungarian VZ14, countless ammunition, and 30,000 tons of grain, 8,000 military tents and other materials.

So much military materiel is enough to arm 15 infantry divisions, one lightly armored tank division and two heavy artillery divisions, especially 16 149mm howitzers, which can be described as an unprecedented mass killing.

With the arrival of military supplies at the same time, there was also an instructor group composed of more than 100 officers, and their arrival greatly excited the Republic of China government and quickly strengthened Xu Shuzhen's strength.

4/1/19

General Xu Shuzhen, who was the military envoy of the Northwest and commander-in-chief of the Northwest Frontier and was in charge of the military and political power of Re, Chacha, Sui, Gansu, and New Provinces, as well as the Inner and Outer Mongolian regions, decided to take advantage of the inability of the Russians to intervene and resolve the Outer Mongolia issue by force, despite the opposition of Premier Jin Yunpeng and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

This move can put down the "rebellion of Outer Mongolian autonomy" and restore the sovereignty and integrity of the Republic of China, and second, it can divert the attention of the Chinese people and reduce their dissatisfaction with the pro-Japanese policy of the Beiyang government.

Third, it is necessary to show military strength and gain political capital.

In the name of patrolling the border and deploying defenses, General Xu Shuzhen led an army of more than 5,000 people from Beiping and arrived at Kulen on the 6th, and swept away the remnants of the White Russian forces, the Japanese infiltration forces, and the rebellion against the princes in Outer Mongolia and other sources of trouble, so as to stabilize the situation in Outer Mongolia.

The third measure was diplomatic pressure, in which the Imperial Foreign Office exerted pressure on both the new Tsarist government and the Japanese side, expressing its grave concern about the situation in Outer Mongolia and ordering it to abide by its duties;

"If you don't know how to advance or retreat, causing the Heavenly Dynasty to be angry, the mountains will collapse, and the heavens and the earth will change color, don't say it unexpectedly!"

Obviously

The new Russian government and the Fuso state all listened to it and retracted their black hands in Outer Mongolia, and Fuso even drastically reduced its infiltration into the three eastern provinces in order to show its sincerity.

The Ocean Empire's financial shackles imposed on Japan and the United States at the same time made it painful, and it truly felt the power of the financial cudge sanctions.

The cost of borrowing money was cool for a while, and he was forced to repay his debts.

May 17th

More than 3,000 people of the 119th Division (Guilin Division) stationed in Vladivostok, under the guidance of the wolf light tank, rushed through with more than 200 armored trucks, crossed 1,100 kilometers until they arrived in Selengesk, surrounded and annihilated the base camp of the Serminov bandit army, and more than 27,000 people of the bandit army and their families were wiped out in a battle, and only more than 4,000 young women and children survived after the war, and the rest were killed.

According to eyewitness accounts;

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, the Imperial army surrounded the bandit garrison on the shores of Lake Selengesk and launched an attack after dawn, which was actually a massacre.

Most of Seminov's troops were horse bandits, and in a hurry, they broke through with sabers and rifles, and the roof machine guns equipped with tightly surrounded armored trucks swept down one by one, killing and wounding countless people.

After this battle, the Seminov gang was completely removed.

The Seminov bandits are a powerful rebel army in Siberia, and they were wiped out in one fell swoop by the imperial military, and the news spread quickly, which greatly shocked the Russian white bandit gang that was still stranded in Central Siberia.

Everyone knows that the Outer Mongolia region involves complex international politics and cannot be easily touched.

If you want to fight it, you have to see if your small size can withstand the wrath of the Great Ocean Empire's military.

Late June 19

The Ocean Empire arranged for the crown prince Li Siyuan to supervise the country, and the emperor Li Fushou led a group of courtiers to Europe to participate in the ongoing Paris Peace Conference summit to discuss major issues such as the division of interests after the war.

July 5th

Escorted by a powerful fleet led by the "Duke of Palawan" and the "Duke of Cebu", the Imperial Emperor Li Fushou and his entourage arrived in London and stayed at the Earl of Queensland Castle on the outskirts of London.

The last time I stayed at the castle was in 1879, and 40 years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The Earl of Queensland's Castle was built on a 350-foot hill and is a fine French court building that was greatly expanded later in the war to become a well-defended castle complex that could accommodate a total of more than 1,200 people, including 750 members of the guard.

The emperor's travel represents the face of the country, and there is no need to pick and choose the careful calculation, and as the richest royal family in the world, the royal family of the Ocean Empire is not short of money.

Standing in front of the luxurious floor-to-ceiling windows, Li Fushou looked at the sunset outside the window, the castle flower garden was full of flowers, and the purple and red flowers competed for beauty, forming a vivid picture with the towering European-style buildings in the distance, full of strong British style.

Imperial Concubine Nicole snuggled up to him, looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her, and muttered; "Your Majesty, I have finally returned to the continent of Europa, I feel that I feel that I am incomparably compatible with the soul here, and it is my haunting homeland!"

"Concubine Ai's words are wrong!"

"Your Majesty, the concubine is terrified, why do you say that?"

"Don't look at the good relations between the two countries, England and France have been enemies for hundreds of years, and they have a deep grudge against each other...... It's already a dog's head. ”

"The concubine is puzzled, why do you have to call back and forth?"

"This is a good question, war and peace are the eternal themes of mankind, throughout the history of Europe for thousands of years, the decaying empire was destroyed in the war, and the modern state was born in the ruins of the war, symbolizing the power game between the old and the new, and it is also the source of human progress."

Speaking of which

Li Fushou lowered his head, looked at the noble concubine Nicole, and said with a smile; "The Counts of Normandy have a deep Anglo-Saxon ancestry, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are half English, and I am glad that you can find a spiritual home here. You can stay in Europe for as long as you want. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."
