Chapter 909: It's time for the Cossacks to move east

After Ding Weiguo heard this, he lowered his head in some frustration. Song Tao next to him said with a smile: "Lao Ding, I think, if your Air Force Department's steps are too big, it will be easy to pull eggs." ”

Everyone laughed when they heard Song Tao's words. Ding Weiguo was so angry that he raised his foot and was about to kick Song Tao, but Song Tao reacted quickly and dodged the other party's sneak attack in a few clicks.

Li Ming watched the two of them messing around, and said with a smile: "Lao Ding, you go back and discuss with Lao Li and redo the budget of the Ministry of the Air Force this year." I understand your urgency, but you're a little too anxious. ”

Ding Weiguo said with a wry smile: "Commander, our Air Force Department attaches great importance to the test flight of the Type 39 airship, and the six test pilots have been flying for more than two months, including test flights under various climatic conditions and various extreme conditions, and they have done a very good job. The data collected through the test flight show that the performance of the Type 39 airship is very good, and the large airship R&D center and our Air Force Department are also very satisfied. ”

Li Ming thought for a while and said: "After a few months of professional test flights, it doesn't explain much. Without equipment that has undergone combat testing, it is too early to say anything. In my opinion, our Northwest Field Army was equipped with a squadron of four Type 39 airships in advance as a test squadron for a period of time.

The airship unit of our Northwest Field Army should be further strengthened, and although the performance of the Type 35A airship may be somewhat reluctant in the future plan for going north and westward in the plan, it will be safe and stable, and it has been tested several times in actual combat. It is possible to establish some forward bases on the ground to make up for some deficiencies in performance, which can fully meet the needs of the Northwest Field Army in the near future. ”

Ma Qing added: "Our Northwest Field Army is located in the northwest, and in the future, it will face the northern grasslands and northwest Xinjiang and other regions, and the territory is extremely vast, so the construction of the air force is very important." At least three years, the Type 35A airship can still take on the heavy role. Although the Type 39 airship is advanced, it is expensive to procure. It is estimated that the construction period of each airship should not be short, and it still needs to be tested in actual combat, my opinion, the Type 39 airship should be gradually equipped in the way of small steps. ”

Li Ming turned to Hao Changfeng again and said: "Starting this year, the grassroots herdsmen detachments will advance north and west, gradually encroaching on the Mobei grassland and the Alxa grassland. Your reserve army group must be ready to assemble at any time. In the event of a clash between our grassroots herdsmen's detachments and the Mongol tribes of Mobei and Erut, you will mobilize according to the situation and resolutely strike at the Mongol tribes that have invaded our Far Eastern territories.

Lao Wang, after a period of time, the four Outer Northeast Indigenous Cavalry Divisions in the Indian Theater will be established one after another. The main task of your cavalry assault group army is to provide support to the grassroots herdsmen's detachments in various localities according to the situation. We will strive to move our positions forward as much as possible before we launch our plans for the northward and westward expansions next year, so as to create favorable conditions for our operations. ”

Song Tao said with a smile: "It seems that next year will be lively." Then we really have to get a good grasp of the formation of the field army, or we really won't be able to catch up with next year's operation. ”

Li Ming nodded and said, "At present, our Northwest Field Army is strong enough to open up two fronts at the same time. Strive to completely control all the pastures north of Lake Baikal next year, and if history does not change, the Cossacks of the Tsarist Empire should also go east, hehe......"

Wang Yaowu said with a smile: "Historically, the Tsarist government directly commanded the conquest of Siberia in 1619 and established a set of rules and management systems. In 1637, a special Siberian affairs yamen was established. Responsible for administrative, military, judicial, financial and other affairs of the Siberian region. The tsarist government attached great importance to the Siberian yamen.

In 1638, the Russian government ordered the establishment of the Yakutsk Governorate. Forcibly annexed large areas of the Lena River region to Russian territory. Yakutsk was originally built on the right bank of the Lena River, and in 1643 the Overseer Golovin ordered the city to be moved to the left bank of the river. After that, Yakutsk became the command center for further Russian expeditions into Northeast Asia.

In the 30s and 40s of the 17th century, Russia invaded the Baikal region from the west and the north, centered on Yeniseisk and Yakutsk, respectively. In 1654, the Cossacks founded Baragansk in the Angara River valley, and in 1652 Irkutsk. In 1642 Verkholensk was founded on the upper reaches of the Lena River. In 1647, Verkhniya Angarsk and Barguzinburg were founded by the Cossacks in the northeastern corner of Lake Baikal, and in 1652 Baontovsk Fort was founded. ”

Song Tao frowned and said, "According to what you say, we have to wait a few more years before we can clean up these guys." I can't wait now. These Cossacks were all brutes, and they did a lot of harm to us in the Outer Northeast in those years. Now that we are from the Far East, none of these Cossacks can be spared. ”

Li Ming glanced at Song Tao and said with a smile: "If you don't say that, you are stupid, why do we have to wait for them to come, can't we take the initiative?" Now there are only a few Cossacks in Siberia from Tsarist Russia, and when we destroy Mobei Mongolia next year, the whole of Siberia will be exposed to our Far Eastern troops, and what is it if the Cossacks are destroyed. ”

When Song Tao heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "Yes...... Why am I so stupid, when the time comes, I will personally clean them up and avenge the compatriots of Hailan Pao and Jiangdong Sixty-four Tun back then. ”

Li Ming shook his head and said, "Just your little bit of interest, what else can you do." In the future, our Northwest Field Army's plan to advance westward will go all the way to the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea. It is only more than 2,000 kilometers from St. Petersburg, and the Mongol cavalry is our Cossacks in the Far East, let them go to the scourge of the Eastern European Plain, and then they will use any three-light policy, and then burn Moscow and St. Petersburg. ”

Ma Qing next to him said with a smile: "Commander, those ocean horses have to stay, don't let those Mongolian cavalry be harmed." It's all washed and packed and shipped back. ”

Song Tao laughed and said, "Old Ma, this is not something you have to worry about. You, a big political commissar, still sit in charge of the Hetao and preside over the overall work. The westward expansion plan has to be implemented by us, you can rest assured, no one is missing, I will personally check it and help everyone get some water girls. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard his words, and they could already imagine the scene at that time. Countless Mongolian iron horsemen roared in the grass valleys on the plains of Eastern Europe, galloping unscrupulously, burning, killing and looting, and it is estimated that there may be no fighting people in the future.
