Chapter 412 Restoration of Eastern Siberia
Outside the empty St. Petersburg pier, there were only a few lonely warships left. Fortunately, the selected sailors were lazy to carry out maintenance work, even if there were several men with wide-brimmed hats at the intersection.
"We're late, Comrade Martov."
"I don't think so." Martov pointed to the idle sailors and said, "Look at those sailors. We should let them join in as soon as possible. As long as we can unite the majority, we can overthrow the rule of the Normanov dynasty!"
In the face of the fanatical Maltov, Lenin frowned: "Comrade Maltov, you can't and shouldn't do that. Although they are all victims, we must ensure the pure surname of the organization, not let it flood."
"No, Comrade Vladimir, I think we should expand the strength of the organization, so as to accelerate our efforts to overthrow the evil Tsar." Martov seemed to be firm in his mind, so he quickly waved his hand.
Lenin wanted to say a few more words, but Delis next to him shook his head: "Says, we are not here to argue."
Lenin looked at Delins. The Polish he rescued in Germany had become his best assistant. The important thing was that his heart to overthrow the Tsar's brutal rule was stronger than anyone else, so with his recommendation, he now joined the Bolshevik Party and soon became a trusted comrade.
Martov didn't want to clash with Lenin so early, so he immediately changed his words and said, "Comrade Vladimir, I think it's time for us to act. The Tsar's army has been trapped in Siberia, and all the navy has left here. If we can take this opportunity to launch a revolution, we can definitely overthrow Nicholas II. The world."
These words made Lenin more worried. In fact, since the Brahish Party grew stronger, some left-leaning ideas began to appear in the party, believing that the rule of the Tsar should be overthrown by force immediately, but in fact, Nicholas II's foundation at this moment is still very strong, and those vested nobles did not agree with themselves. If it is launched rashly at this time, will the weak revolutionary flame be extinguished?
Seeing that Lenin had not spoken for a long time, Martov mistakenly thought that Lenin was not well prepared and continued, "Comrade Vladimir, you can rest assured that we have purchased some weapons and troops from abroad. In addition, Comrade Visa Leonovic has raised some funds in the Caucasus, which is enough for us to launch It's a revolution!"
"Visa Leonovic in the Caucasus?!" Delins' eyes lit up. He had been looking for this name for a long time. Unexpectedly, he heard it at this time and immediately remembered it in his mind.
"Comrade Martov, I don't think we are ready yet. We must wait until we get some aristocratic support!"
"What! The support of the nobles? Comrade Lenin! Do you think it's not enough for them to bully the people? Why do you want to contact them? Martov said excitedly, "I think we are capable, so I still insist on launching a revolution!"
"Dlins, what do you think?" Lenin turned to Delins, who had never spoken, and asked.
"Comrade Lenin, I'm here to join the revolution, overthrow the Tsar, and return the freedom of the Poles. I can continue to wait, but if the Tsar's army loses in the Far East, I don't mind sprinkling salt on his wounds." After pretending to think about it, Drins said what he was ready to do.
"Well, let's wait until summer." At the insistence of the two, although Lenin still felt that it was too early, he also knew that it was a good opportunity to let others know the ideas of the Bolshevik Party.
After the three quickly separated to contact some naval personnel, a telegram was also quietly sent from St. Petersburg. After arriving in France, they flew to Hong Kong through the forwarding there, and finally came to Li Mo's table.
"This is the telegram I just received." After Li Mo handed the telegram to Li Enfu, he asked, "Mr. Li, what do you think should be done?"
After reading the telegram, Li Enfu handed him over to Chen Ping beside him. After thinking about it, he asked, "Your Majesty, I have a question before that. Do you really think this Brashevik Party will go to the rule of the Tsar in the future?"
Li Mo is speechless. He can't tell them that they have traveled through time. He knows a hundred years in five hundred years, right? After thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Li, I don't want to say anything else. I believe you have seen their information before. The set of things they promote is very demagogic among workers, and workers are one of the most important cornerstones of the country. Besides, I don't say that you are very clear about the current living conditions of workers and farmers in Russia. They The second time may not be successful, but if the influence of this expansion is used to infiltrate the most farmers, I'm afraid it will form a praior.
Li Enfu frowned. Obviously, there was a little flash in these words. He couldn't know how Li Mo thought that the Brasvik Party would become a confidant, but he had seen a lot of Li Mo's magic. He had hardly judged wrong things for so many years, so he thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, since you think so, then I have three strategies.
"Oh? Say it quickly."
"The best policy is to stay still." Li Enfu's eyes flashed and continued to say, "Don't touch any of the dark things we set up and let them make trouble by themselves. The disadvantage of doing so is that their influence will expand. The advantage is that Nicholas II has not reached the point of exhaustion, so I guess it is still difficult for them to succeed. After a while, they can only continue to lurk. In this way, we will have enough time to infiltrate, and we will not expose the pieces and use our power at the most critical moment!"
"The worst strategy is to launch all means to help them and strive to overthrow Nicholas II, but I estimate that it will be difficult to succeed for the time being, but the advantage is that our participation is bound to make the riot more prosperous, which can make Nicholas have to temporarily give up against us in Siberia in order to stabilize power. The disadvantage is that all our pieces will be exposed, and once Nicholas II knows that we are interfering, I'm afraid it will be difficult to intervene again in the future.
Li Mo nodded. Li Enfu was right.
Gang seems to be the best choice at present, but as a time traveler, he knows very well that Brahvik is not ready, and even the gang will not succeed, because at this time, after all, it is not a huge battle. Losing the desolate Siberia will only make Russia focus more attention on Europe. On the contrary, Britain and France hope. I saw it, so even if Russia is defeated, it will quickly get a blood transfusion again, and Britain, France and other countries certainly do not want to see Nicholas II overthrown at this time, so at this moment, the gang can only expose their arrangement in Europe, which is likely to arouse the vigilance of various countries and make them feel that they have begun to interfere in European affairs. You know, this is a taboo in the white world! At that time, it is very likely that countries will fully support Nicholas II, and the weak revolutionary party will be eliminated by several countries, so the plan to use red to contain Europe and make trouble for Europe in the future will not succeed.
Russia alone is not afraid, but if Britain and France fully support it, I'm afraid that I will be dragged into endless border conflicts, which is not the purpose of this war.
If you don't help, you will use your strength at the most critical moment for the outsiders. When they grow up, they will suddenly launch with the catastrophe, and then quickly clear some of the main backbones, then their power will not be as concentrated as in future generations. At that time, all countries were in full play, and they must be unable to interfere in the internal affairs of Russia. You can fish in troubled waters and make profits on both sides. If you have the opportunity to support a pro-own force between China and Russia, it is undoubtedly the best choice.
Thinking of this, Li Mo suddenly picked up the telegram and asked, "What should this man do according to his husband's idea?"
"It's very simple, kill it!" Li Enfu held his teeth and said with a cold breath, "This man is now rampant in the Caucasus, robbing banks, kidnapping and extorting. It is simply a crime. Even for the revolution, it is a crime. If he is really told by the emperor, he will be in a high position in the future, then such a person will be very dangerous!"
Chen Ping, who has never been born, also nodded and agreed: "I have the same opinion! Because this kind of people have experienced fighting, and the means are even more vicious. They are very clear about the survival law of the law of the jungle, and they will definitely strengthen themselves by any means. If he comes to power, he will definitely concentrate his strength and military, and forget his previous ideals, which will be a great threat to us!"
The right-hand man said killing at the same time. Obviously, neither of them likes this kind of person. To be honest, Li Mo is not used to it. His glory in later generations covers too much blood and killing, and Chen Ping is right. Once he is in power, I'm afraid that there will be the phenomenon of rolling steel in later generations, so it is necessary to strangle these people in the buds.
Thinking of this, Li Mo nodded to Chen Ping, which already meant that some people would disappear soon.
As if he wanted to forget this decision as soon as possible, Li Mo quickly stood up and walked to the map and asked, " By the way, how is the Russian fleet now?"
"Ha ha." Speaking of this topic, Chen Ping suddenly smiled, looked at Li Enfu and said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, your five remote control boats killed Roger Stern. Now those Russian sailors were asked by him to stand by night. A few days ago, they shelled the British fishing boat, resulting in several deaths. Now the two countries are This matter is entangled, and there are too many ships that have been hit by shells along the way. Now European newspapers have called the Russian Expeditionary Fleet the Mad Dog Fleet.
"Mad Dog Fleet." Li Mo muttered and smiled, "Go and tell Duan Fei that anything is fine, as long as they don't arrive comfortably. I want to see if they still have the strength to fight when they arrive here!"
After saying that, Li Mo made a gesture to Du Dazhuang, who immediately lifted the curtain covering half of the map. After seeing the situation map showing the northern front, he quickly walked to him and asked, "Is there anything new in the north?"
Chen Ping and Li Enfu immediately walked to the map, took the baton handed over by Da Zhuang and pointed to Boli and Hailan. Now a circle is drawn here: "On the East Front, at present, the land division and three infantry divisions have formed a siege of the two places and are launching a tentative attack."
"Angalsk in the middle line is also in a semi-encircled state. Kuropatkin is too hesitant. If he had tried his best to break through before, maybe we could not stop it, but now it has begun to snow there, and it is impossible to go back, so he uses a lot of barbed wire. And the bunker locked himself in for help.
"The western line is relatively complex, and the strict order of Nicholas II seems to have made it effective. At present, Zarubaev is leading the army to attack the overseas siege of Ili and Tangnuwuliang, in an attempt to use the numerical advantage to force us to stay away from the Siberian railway line. Previously, after receiving the reprimand of Nicholas II, he took advantage of our discord. With the opportunity to close the encirclement, 50,000 urgently recruited troops have been transported to Angarsk by means of protection of 100,000 troops along the way, so Sun Jiugong called and hoped that we could change the current western defense strategy and allow him to take the initiative to attack.
"What does he think?"
"His plan is to transfer the 4th and 10th Infantry Divisions, give up the entanglement with the Russian army, plug into Tomsk at full speed, quickly occupy there, relying on the fortress built by the Russians, and completely cut off Russia's hope of using the railway line to support the central region."
Looking at Chen Ping's heavier place, Li Mo frowned. There were not many troops in the northwest theater, but now Sun Jiugong has to transfer two infantry divisions more than 100 kilometers away from Tomsk at once. Will he escape?
And Tomsk is just a small fortress, which is not enough to support 40,000 troops. Once the Siberian artery is completely cut off, in the case of no other road to go in winter, the Russian army is bound to concentrate all its forces. It is already difficult to supply in the northwest. If it faces hundreds of thousands of troops Will the team attack bury the two divisions?
"Sun Jiugong means that on this basis, he will continue to send a cavalry division straight out of Petropavlovsk, which is Russia's most important Western Siberian entry and exit point. He believes that as long as we can threaten here, or even a few shots, then the Russian army will have to take precautions, according to his Calculate that if the raid is successful, at least 50,000 troops of the Russian army will be contained. Under the slow mobilization of troops by Russia, the two infantry divisions in Tomsk are enough to support until next spring, which will ensure that we complete the total attack on the eastern and middle lines!"
I just let the two infantry divisions go more than 100 kilometers ahead, and now I have the idea of Petropavlovsk, which is more than 600 kilometers away. This Sun Jiugong has a great appetite, but although this move is a dangerous move, there is also some truth. Petropavlovsk, located in Western Siberia, is not on the Kamchatka Peninsula. The remote place with the same name was built more than a hundred years ago. It is an important pass to enter and exit Siberia. If it can threaten there, it is estimated that half of the Russian army will be scared to death.
And now it has snowed in Siberia, and the air force cannot go to support in this weather, so the speed of military operations must be accelerated. If it is delayed for another month, all large-scale military attacks will basically stagnate, and an enemy must be solved as soon as possible!
On October 3, 1903, after a buffer period of nearly a month, two land divisions and three infantry divisions of the Xinhua Army launched a general attack on Hailan Pao and Boli with the help of more than 400 cannons. In the face of powerful artillery fire, the Eastern Front Army Group under the command of Bidelinger was completely divided.
Finally, after 15 consecutive days of fighting, the Eastern Front Army of the Russian Far East Theater finally couldn't hold on after causing as many as 35,000 casualties and almost running out of weapons and ammunition. Lieutenant General Biddleinger finally submitted a letter of surrender to Zhang Shun.
On October 18, three reserve divisions of the Xinhua Army entered eastern Siberia with a large number of cold-proof equipment, which means that the main battles on the Eastern Front have all ended, and the reserve will replace the main force for follow-up clean-up work.
On October 19, the two marines, who had just won a great victory, advanced to Petropavlovsk on the Kamchatka Peninsula, Okhotsk and Yakutsk, the last two important towns of Eastern Siberia. Because the main forces were annihilated, they were stationed in three places with almost no resistance.
At the same time, the Western Front also suddenly became tense. The 4th Infantry Division and the 9th Infantry Division of the Xinhua Army, with 20,000 workers of the Construction Corps carrying a large amount of ammunition and supplies, suddenly drilled out of the border from the Tangnu Wuliang Sea and quickly occupied the Tomusk fortress all the way.
This news shocked Zarubayev, the commander of the Russian Western Front, because it meant that the middle army would no longer receive any supplies and assistance this winter, so he quickly mobilized the army to give up the entanglement at the Xinhua border, hoping to recover Tomsk to ensure the safety of the railway line.
But what he didn't expect was that in just a few days, the Xinhua Army took advantage of its manpower to build a long high wall there with water and ice in the cold winter, and built a complete defense by relying on the high wall.
Just as he was about to attack, another bad news came that Petropavlovsk in Western Siberia was raided by the New Chinese cavalry. Tens of thousands of tons of supplies and food and fodder were burned, and the 5,000 troops stationed there were also killed and injured.
This news scared him so much that he couldn't even take care of Tomsk. You know, once the other party's cavalry continued to go deep, the front would point straight to Yekaterinaburg, which was the heart of the Eurasian continent, so he quickly took the army back to Petropavlovsk to ensure the safety of this strategic town.
On October 30, the Prime Minister's Office of Xinhua issued another announcement, announcing that the Xinhua Army had restored all the territory of Eastern and Western Siberia, east of the Lena River, including the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Sakhalin Islands. At the same time, it issued an announcement requesting that the Russians who continue to illegally occupy Xinhua's territory in the above places should be limited within one month. Leave, or the army will be used to deport.
As the weather in Siberia became colder and colder, the recruitment and mobilization of the Russian domestic army was slow, and the northern battlefield became stiff as ice and snow. At this time, everyone was interested in continuing to fight on land, so their eyes turned to the expeditionary fleet that was still staggering...
