Chapter 198: Everything is under control

In the palace of the Governor-General of the Far East, Governor Jeffrovsky scolded him for his gaffe over the Mongol dispatch of troops. Feng Yong was very excited when he received the news, and at the same time, he was completely relieved.

To be honest, the grand strategy he formulated with Jiang Baili was very risky. After all, the Russian Tsar was a very strong man, and he would never allow outsiders to maintain ambitions about the land they swallowed, so the relationship between Russia and the surrounding powers was not very good. And the Russian Empire is the country with the largest standing army in the world, with an army of more than one million people, so that any country that resists Russia must think carefully. This is also the reason why Tsarist Russia has a very low level of capitalist development, but it is a world-class power. The Russian nation, for historical reasons, the whole nation, from the tsar to the serfs, has an unusual fanaticism for the land. This can be seen from the continuous eastward advance of successive Russian tsars into the barren Siberia.

And Feng Yong has great ambitions for the now barren and almost nothing-for-nothing Siberia. Feng Yong from later generations is very clear, and there are rich mineral treasures buried in the seemingly barren Siberian underground. The staggering reserves of oil alone rival those of the Middle East. And in the future, whoever masters the abundant oil will master the lifeblood of the world. So of course Feng Yong will have ideas. If Tsarist Russia had continued to exist, Feng Yong would not have any idea at all, after all, Russia's war potential was not comparable to that of other countries. But Feng Yong knew that Russia, a seemingly powerful country, had entered the countdown to death. A red sè giant chrysalis has penetrated all aspects of the Tsarist Russian Empire, and this red sè giant beast that affects the direction of the world political system is about to break out of the cocoon, and what Feng Yong has to do is to annex the entire Siberia with the momentum of a snake swallowing an elephant when the Tsarist Russian Empire collapses. Feng Yong's ambition was great, and he was not satisfied with only snatching back the territory ceded by the Manchu Qing Dynasty. He wanted all of Siberia, preferably if it was possible, to drive the Russians out of Asia. Let China monopolize the lands of East and North Asia.

Of course, Feng Yong's strategy is huge, but it is not yet known how far he can go. With such a large area of land in the Far East, if he had not occupied an extreme geographical advantage, I am afraid he would not have been able to have such an idea. However, if Feng Yong's northeast wanted to monopolize the land of Tsarist Russia, then rì would have become the biggest competitor. After all, North Korea, which Rì himself controls, also borders the Russian Far East. In addition, Rìben's navy was extremely powerful, and it could transport three hundred thousand jīng sharp troops to the Far East in a month. Of course, the premise is that Rì could have drawn up so many spare troops. According to Feng Yong's estimates, the number of Jīng Rui troops that could have been transferred to the Far East would not have exceeded 150,000. Plus the coalition forces of other neutral countries in World War I, such as the United States. The total number of troops is only 200,000 at most. If Feng Yong wants to annex Siberia alone, he must keep these soldiers out. Historically, there have been many countries that have sent troops to Russia, after all, the destructive power of the Red Soviets is really amazing. However, these Far Eastern dispatch forces were basically based on Rìben's army.

But Siberia is too big, and the conditions are even more difficult, with a cold of tens of degrees below zero, and few countries can endure it at all. Even the Rì army, which is known for its obedience, can't bear it. As for how those coalition forces withdrew from the Far East, Feng Yong did not know. But it definitely has something to do with the environment in the Far East. After all, when the October Revolution took place, the ports on the edge of the Far East were basically covered with ice, and the Far East was even more winter, and the might of nature was beyond the reach of human beings today. Even if Rì Ben had a strong navy, he probably wouldn't be able to do much.

"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." Feng Yong's eyes flashed with strong ambition, the collapse of the Russian Empire he Feng Yong is absolutely going to get involved, this is the weakest time for polar bears, if you don't seize the opportunity, I'm afraid it will never be possible anymore. And Tohoku is participating in it with the strongest attitude. Even if you can't swallow the whole of Siberia, you must take back the Chinese territory that Shak has encroached upon. In that case, Russia's several ice-free ports in the Far East will also fall into Feng Yong's hands, and without ice-free ports, even if the Soviet Union still expands its power to the Far East as it did in its previous life, its impact on East Asia will be much smaller.

........................ "General Glerìnev, what should we do?" "After sending intelligence to the Far East, Lieutenant General Syuyev was always in trepidation. He knew that he was reprimanded this time for sure. The losses of soldiers are secondary, but the losses of weapons and equipment are too great. After the statistics of Lieutenant General Muryuev. The sudden attack on the camp by the Northeast Security Army caused heavy losses to the entire army, and nine percent of the military supplies were lost. The rest will not be able to support a big war at all. As Governor Jeff's confidant, he is well aware of Governor Jeff's greed. In recent years, the Tsar's salary transferred to the Far Eastern Army was personally embezzled by him, and coupled with the exploitation of other aristocratic officials in the Far East, not even one-third of it was distributed to the soldiers. This is also the reason why the Far Eastern Army often engages in "side jobs". It is precisely because Governor Jeff is not right that the entire Far Eastern system will be crooked. The sports army, as the protective force of the army, is even more unrepresentable. Fortunately, there are not many things in the Far East Army that eat empty salaries. The actual strength of the Far Eastern Army, which was full of 120,000 men, was only 100,000. If there was no war, Governor Jeff would not have bothered to care about the following things. Being able to release a governor in one place is already the most comfortable thing. The original Governor Jeff just wanted to make money comfortably. When the money is enough, use the money to move around, and then transfer back to Moscow to enjoy the blessings. But as the Tsar transferred the military power of the Far Eastern Army to the Far Eastern Governor's Palace, Governor Jeff's mind changed. Of course, it's not that he has any disobedience to it, after all, the Tsar's strength is not something that can be resisted by the bitter cold Far East. Governor Jeff just wants to live the addiction of the Earth Emperor. It's just that he doesn't have any generals himself, and there is no war in the Far East, so he is no different from the original except that he is a little more powerful.

Suryuev turned out to be an officer in the Far Eastern Army who could not be reused, and later secretly defected to Governor Jeff, who was promoted step by step to the position of deputy general of the Far Eastern Army. Later, in the last purge, the original commander of the Far Eastern Army was overthrown, and Governor Jeff promoted him to the high position of acting commander. Vyuev knew that everything he had was given by Governor Jeff. It's also central to him. This is the war that happened too suddenly. So suddenly that he lost more than half of it before he could react.

"General Muryuev need not be upset. Our two armies together have 45,000 men. Even if the Far Eastern Army cannot be defeated, it is still no problem to hold on to the defense line of our army. As for our defeat by the Northeast Security Army, let's not report it to His Majesty the Tsar. Otherwise, you and I won't be able to eat and walk around. "Lieutenant General Gleleunev does not want to take the blame for this defeat. If you talk about the power of the family in the empire, Weilyuev is only from a small family, and his family and Lieutenant General Glemanev are not comparable at all, but Weilyuev is the person of the Russian Governor Jeff Trovsky, and Governor Jeff's family is the top wealthy family in the empire, not his own family can compare. That's why he treated Wiryuev with such courtesy.

"I think so too, but we have lost so many troops, if we can't be replenished, something will happen sooner or later." Vyuev thought of the foreign observation group and said worriedly. If they continue to fight with the Northeast Security Army here, sooner or later they will attract the attention of foreign intelligence observers, and foreign observation groups will flock to them. At that time, with the eyes of those military observers, it will certainly not be possible to hide the size of their own army. If the matter reached the ears of the tsar, they were also in danger.

"The army replenishes things to good say. Now that we are in the empire, it is not difficult to recruit young and strong. I am more afraid that the northeast, on the other side, will make a big deal about this great victory in order to attack the prestige of the empire. Once this news reaches the ears of His Majesty the Tsar and sends an investigation team, then we are really finished. ”

"I don't think so!" Ryuev said without confidence. Yes, for a weak country, what a proud thing to defeat a strong one. There's no reason why the Northeast shouldn't make a big splash.

"Take one step at a time! We're having a hard time riding a tiger now. At present, the most important thing is not to go south to deal with the Northeast Security Army, but to defend this defense line as much as possible to prevent the Northeast Security Army from attacking the hinterland of the empire. General Friyuev, don't forget that behind us is the Trans-Siberian Railway. "Lieutenant General Glee Nev god sè dignified. He also hopes that the Northeast will not make a big deal about this matter, but it is unrealistic to look at this situation. Lieutenant General Glerì Nev had also prepared for the worst, and if the Northeast really hyped up this matter, they would have to report it to the tsar in advance. After all, it can be lighter to take the initiative to admit guilt.

.............................. "Commander, why should we retreat to the border!" The land under our feet was also the territory of the Chinese for decades, and was later occupied by Lao Maozi. They even set up a boundary marker, saying that it was their territory. It's shameless to the extreme, and now that we finally have such a good opportunity, why don't we go all out and completely eliminate them? Cao Zheng's Jǐng Wei battalion commander asked suspiciously. It's a shame to give up such a great opportunity.

"Nothing to be sorry for. There is no baggage. The enemy on the other side is just a piece of meat on our plate. You can eat whenever you want. And the commander-in-chief has already calculated about this matter, so let's not interject. Cao Zheng said solemnly, he knew the characteristics of his own battalion commander. is honest, but the disadvantage is that there is some gossip. And like to inquire about things. If he hadn't been recommended by his old man, Cao Zheng would have sent him down long ago. After all, such a person is prone to trouble when he follows him.
