Chapter 633 Japan sent troops to the second more to ask for subscription

On September 3, 1921, the 3rd Division of the Northeast Army of the Chinese National Defense Forces crossed the Ussuri River and entered this relatively prosperous Far East land to assist the Chinese Self-Strengthening Army in encircling and suppressing the Tsarist Russian government army and Soviet revolutionaries. n.et said that the battle of Twin Cities became the largest decisive battle between the Chinese army and the Russian army in the East, and it was also the final decisive battle.

After Xu Zhiliang staged a coup d'état in Vladivostok, the remnants of the Russian army withdrew from Vladivostok and finally assembled in the twin cities. Lieutenant General Bolizhnev, the former commander of the Russian Far East Army, took over the command of the army, and after emergency mobilization and the rout of the troops in various battlefields, a total of more than 25,000 Russian troops were gained. The Twin Cities are the largest cities in the Far East after Vladivostok, with a population of nearly 100,000. Among them, only 20% are Russians, and the rest are native-born Chinese. After Bolizhnev raised the banner in the Twin Cities, he began to strictly restrict the movement of the Chinese in the city, and anyone who was suspected was bloodily killed.

Just like revenge for the bloody massacre of the Chinese army, the Russian army also created bloody terror in the Twin Cities. In just three days, thousands of Chinese were killed, and blood stained the entire Twin Cities.

Xu Zhiliang of Vladivostok received the news, on the one hand, urging Liu Xiang, chief of staff of the Chinese Self-Strengthening Army, to stop the eastward expansion plan and go all out to advance to the Twin Cities in the north, and on the other hand, he sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Northeast Army Corps, asking it to cross the Ussuri River as soon as possible, and together with the Chinese Self-Strengthening Army, attack the Twin Cities on both sides, eliminate the Russian army in this area of the Ussuri River as soon as possible, and stabilize the situation in the Far East.

In response to Xu Zhiliang's request, Liu Hei did not hesitate at all, and advanced the original plan to cross the river by two days, and this time Liu Hei sent the third division, the most elite ace of the Northeast Military Region. As one of the 12 divisions of the National Defense Force, the 3rd Division is the top level in terms of size and equipment, and the dispatch of the 3rd Division also shows that Liu Hei attaches great importance to the land east of the Ussuri River.

After receiving the news of Liu Hei's troops, Xu Zhiliang was greatly relieved. The current Chinese self-improvement army has about 30,000 troops, although most of them come from the Russian Far East Army, but after the civil war of the Far East Army, many Chinese soldiers have broken down to the people, and the current Chinese self-improvement army cannot give them an absolute sense of security, so many people do not accept Xu Zhiliang's edict at all, which also leads to Xu Zhiliang's strength is tense, and it is difficult to quickly take the entire Ussuri River region, so that Bolizhnev took advantage of the loophole and concentrated a lot of resistance forces in the twin cities.

And the Soviet revolutionaries, after the defeat at Vladivostok, did not abandon their revolutionary ideals. After the escape from Vladivostok, the political commissar of the Soviet Far East Bureau, Morokirov, continued his revolutionary movement of the Red Soviets in Artem. And the Soviet revolutionaries in the Far East also rallied towards Artem. Now the form of the Far East made Morokilov understand that against the Chinese army, it was impossible to adopt their previous tactics of struggle. The Russians and the Chinese have fundamentally different ideas, not to mention the fact that now China has greatly mobilized troops to Siberia, which makes Morokirov feel even heavier pressure.

The Soviet revolutionary forces were still different from the Tsarist government army to which Bolizhnev belonged. Bolizhnev is the current orthodox force of Tsarist Russia, and although the Chinese army is not well-intentioned, the Western armies currently on the road have clearly expressed their support for the rule of the Tsarist Russian government army in the Far East, and with the arrival of the Western troops, their lives can be guaranteed even if they are not in good condition. And the Soviet Revolutionary Party, whatever it falls to, will end up with a dead fate. This made Morokirov ready to concentrate all the forces of the Soviets for a final duel.

Twin cities. The residence of Lieutenant General Bolizhnev.

Since he was removed from the post of commander of the Far Eastern Army by Governor Jefftrov, he lived in seclusion here. Although Bolizhnev was not from an aristocratic background, he served as the commander of the Far Eastern Army for a long time, and he took advantage of his position to reap great benefits. Later, he resigned because of the shortage of military salaries in the Far East Army and the serious reselling of military supplies. Even so, Bolizhnev still had a good reputation in the Russian army, at least when he was the commander of the Far Eastern Army, although the soldiers under his command did not receive any military salary, they could move freely and make extra money, and they received more than military salaries. After Xu Zhiliang rectified the Far Eastern Army, the military discipline of the Far Eastern Army was much stricter, and after a large number of lawless officers were sent to military courts, the pressure on the officers and men of the Far East was greatly increased. Later, the Far Eastern Army found out that they would not be punished for plundering in China, and that they would be rewarded for plundering. This allowed a large number of hungry Russian soldiers to enter China and plunder. …,

There were soldiers who were lucky enough to loot and made a lot of money. In the past two years, Northeast China has been stable and the people's living standards have improved a lot, which has allowed these lucky Russian soldiers to get a lot of gains, and these gains have stimulated the greed of the Russian soldiers at the bottom, which is why a large number of Russian troops have been hunted and killed by the Chinese army in the past two years, and the Russian soldiers are still endless.

After Xu Zhiliang's coup d'état in Vladivostok, Bolizhnev did not intend to stand up. He had even packed his bags and was ready to take the nearest train back to Europe. But just as he was about to set off, he received news that China had sent troops to Siberia to cut off the Trans-Siberian Railway. Although the news was uncertain, Lieutenant General Bolizhnev did not dare to risk it. If this news is false, they will fall into the hands of the Chinese army halfway, and Bolizhnev does not believe that the Chinese army will be polite to them foreigners. If the wealth he had accumulated over the years in his suitcase was confiscated, it would be better to kill him. Lieutenant General Bolizhnev is no longer young, and the property looted in the box for many years is the hope of the rest of his life, so for the sake of this hope, Bolizhnev will definitely not take a little risk.

In the end, Xu Zhiliang established a Chinese government in Vladivostok and wantonly excluded the Russians. The confiscation of the property of the Russian magnates and the miserable situation were like a bolt from the blue for Bolizhnev, completely dispelling his desire to be a submissive citizen. In order to protect the wealth he had accumulated over the years, Bolizhnev began to organize soldiers to occupy the Twin Cities and called on the Russian army to rally in the Twin Cities. The original intention was to concentrate forces to protect itself, but as more and more Russian troops moved closer, things had developed in a direction beyond Brezhnev's control.

It must be said that Bolizhnev's call is a great temptation for the Russian army, which is like a headless fly. Whether it was the border guards or the city garrison, as long as they felt powerless to resist the Chinese self-improvement army, they all gathered towards the twin cities. The Twin Cities have accumulated tremendous momentum in a short period of time.

Now Bolizhnev is not very happy in his heart, on the contrary, he feels a great crisis. It has almost become an open secret that the Chinese Self-Improvement Army has defected to the Chinese Army, and the Chinese Self-Improvement Army does not care too much, and there will be a big difference in the strength of the two sides, and the level of weapons is similar. Coupled with the natural physical superiority of the Russian soldiers over the Chinese soldiers, Bolizhnev was sure to maintain the status quo of the Twin Cities. His only concern was the entry of the Chinese army, and although the Chinese army had no intention of crossing the river, no one could determine the next move of the Chinese army.

"Commander, someone outside the door asks to see him, saying that he is an envoy from Japan." The adjutant walked in and said.

"An envoy of Japan?" Bolizhnev's face was stunned for a moment, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

"Please, no, I'll pick it up myself!" Bolizhnev was greatly excited and strode out. The problems that have plagued him these days have all been solved because of the arrival of this Japanese.

The person who came was a short, thin middle-aged man in his thirties, and a pair of looped legs clearly told people his identity.

"Hello, Your Excellency. I am Kanjiro, the chief of the Siberian Special High School of the Great Japanese Empire, and I have come to see you this time to discuss with His Excellency the General how to guarantee the rule of His Majesty the Tsar of the Far East. His Majesty the Tsar was killed by the Red Rebels, and the Japanese Empire was very angry, and His Majesty the Emperor wrote an elegy with his own hands to mourn the unfortunate fate of His Majesty the Tsar. His Majesty the Emperor said so. Although there was some friction between the Japanese Empire and your country before, that was all in the past. After all, we are neighbors with a strip of water, and we cannot watch your country invaded by that ambitious country. Therefore, we came to the general with our sincerity, hoping that we could cooperate with the general and seek peace in the Far East. ”…,

Kanjiro first bowed respectfully, and then said solemnly. I have to say that it is easy for the Japanese to gain people's favor by putting on such a groveling posture, not to mention that now Bolizhnev still has a request for help, and naturally his face is full of smiles.

"Mr. Kanjiro, I am now worried about the matter of the Chinese self-improvement army, and it is very good that your country can stand on the side of our government army. Please inside, please inside, please talk about specific things slowly. Bolizhnev warmly took Kanjiro's hand and pulled him into the mansion.

A strange smile appeared on Kanjiro's face. He couldn't see the eager look on Bolizhnev's face. It was precisely because of Bolizhnev's eager look that he was even more confident in the task of his trip.

No one knows what the two sides talked about, but after the conversation between the two ended, some yellow faces appeared within the Russian army. At the same time, a batch of Japanese-made equipment of a considerable scale has also appeared in the Russian army. These greatly boosted the morale of the Russian army, and there were even calls for a counteroffensive against Vladivostok.

At the same time, the main forces of the Japanese Navy reached Sakhalin, and immediately after the landing of the Japanese marines. The Russian troops stationed on the island surrendered without the slightest resistance. After that, a steady stream of Japanese troops landed. Although the local people organized a counterattack, they were brutally suppressed by the Japanese army, and the fall of Sakhalin was a foregone conclusion. When the news reached Vladivostok, Xu Zhiliang issued a strong protest to Japan on behalf of the Chinese local government, demanding that Japan immediately withdraw from Sakhalin. But Japan simply does not take the Chinese local governments that China secretly supports into account. In addition, now that China cannot afford to send troops to Sakhalin, Japan is even more unscrupulous.
