One scientific expedition after another entered Siberia without causing any waves, and now Siberia has concentrated more than 1.5 million field troops, 3 million second-line troops, and a large number of engineering personnel, more than a dozen trains, and thousands of survey personnel, which are not at all inconspicuous.

In the vast expanse of Siberia, they will use the method of carpet search to explore all the mineral resources of Siberia, and thousands of people will be scattered on more than one million square kilometers of land in East Siberia, which is not at all conspicuous.

On the other side, the war situation in Eastern Siberia has become very dull. In the Eastern Siberian region, a very strange war situation has arisen, one side is advancing step by step, the other side is firmly defensive, both sides are preparing, and they are all centered around Vladivostok, but there is no substantial contact, the two sides maintain a safe distance, and do not easily start the war.

In the middle of this, the Chinese side is not in the middle of the time, when the time comes, after dealing with the surrounding things, it will definitely fight, and it will be a big fight, Vladivostok, such a natural deep-water port, the existence of a commercial port and a military port, is also very critical for the Far East, and it is certainly impossible to remain in the hands of the Russians.

The Chinese don't want to fight, Russia is just the opposite, it's not that they don't want to fight, they can't fight, once Xingkai Lake, 300,000 completely explained, and then, after the formation of an encirclement in the northwest, they were so grinning, with a huge encirclement, completely sealed them in Vladivostok, which made them a little unbearable.

After some consideration. With the support of a part of the young officers, the choice was made to attack. Another 200,000 men were entangled, and they tentatively attacked one of the defended strongholds. It's a pity that they didn't wait for other troops to surround them, but this part of their own army beat these 200,000 people to the ground.

The gap in strength is too big, the largest one here is the 120 mm gun, or the version from 10 years ago, used during the Russo-Japanese War, and it is still in use now, with the 155 in the northwest, such a big killer. With newer materials, newer concepts, and even better designs, in this way, whether it is the range, power, or even the means of the gunner, all of them are not at the same level, and there is no counter-charge. A direct artillery shot down, and Russia completely stopped,

Can you not stop, just one and a half hours. The army of 200,000 was confessed to more than 80,000 at once, this kind of lethality. It's just helpless for them, the other side just relies on artillery. You can resist them, and you don't have a temper at all. There is no hope of breaking through the siege at all, only one day can be counted as a day of waiting, and even in the eyes of some pessimistic officers, let's end it quickly, and really let the Chinese army fight, which can be regarded as the end of this ordeal.

After entering May, the ice and snow in the south of Siberia began to melt, and the Russian army, which had been waiting for several months and had not waited for the operation of the Siberian Military District, finally could not bear it anymore.

Due to the severance of communications, coupled with the fact that the Chinese side has deliberately blocked the news about East Siberia, the outside world does not know about the situation in East Siberia, and on the Russian side of the mainland, let them deal with it as much as possible, and the Far East, with millions of troops, no matter how it can't, it should be possible to contain a part of the Chinese army.

It's a pity that all the calls, all the telegrams, were lost in the sea, and when I asked from the channels of the United States, Britain, and even Japan, there was no news, and I had no choice but to give up.

In the eyes of the Russian high-level, perhaps the Chinese blocked the news, and some people thought about whether China would attack Siberia, but most people are thinking in a good direction, perhaps they are unwilling to face reality.

Beginning with the winter season, the troops were concentrated, armed with US munitions, and several million troops, and even on the premise of learning the lessons of the past, relatively strict training was carried out, and almost tens of thousands of graduates from various military schools were also transferred to the army, which can be regarded as making this army look a little different.

Most of the Russian troops have left the Ural Mountains and gradually entered Yekaterinburg, preparing to attack Chita, and they also know that Chita is under construction throughout the winter, but to what extent they don't know how much it will be built, and they will only know when they really face Chita.

When the vanguard arrived in Chita, Russia discovered that China was terrible. The original Chita, but a city within a radius of a few kilometers, is the most common railway hub city on the Siberian side, with the help of the surrounding geographical environment, the most armed, deployed to about 10 kilometers outside the city, that is, 100 square kilometers.

This kind of arming is only a preliminary deployment, at most on some high ground, some checkpoints have been formulated, the Chinese side used artillery fire to clear the point, step by step to advance the front to the edge of Chita, and with the help of solidified ******, take Chita.

Such a city that has almost been destroyed by half has fallen into the hands of the northwest, but it has a different style, and the layout area is still 100 square kilometers, which is already the largest number of troops that can be deployed around Chita, but this 100 square kilometers is completely different from the previous one.

Around Chita, a total of more than 300 highlands of different sizes, not fully armed, but focused on arming, selected 121 from the middle, covering each other, the line of sight and shooting angle without any obstruction, in order to ensure their logistics supply, in the middle of each of them, there are underground passages to communicate, the entire Chita has become a spider-like eight-legged appearance.

On the selected heights, all of them are high-standard permanent fortifications, reinforced concrete structures up to 3 meters thick, I am afraid that only flamethrowers can be effective in such an attack, a major fulcrum, perhaps only able to delay, but hundreds of combined, is a steel-like defense line, once the famous Verdun Line of Defense in World War II, is not the opponent of this at all, for no other reason, the northwest not only arranged 20,000 guns of more than 100 mm in Chita, more than 1.5 million troops, There are also 27 armored trains.

At the same time as attacking Vladivostok, a large number of ring lines were arranged, not to mention that Chita had been won for more than 6 months, 3 million builders, under the severe cold, worked for 6 months, not only communicated, the railway from the trading city to Chita, as early as the New Year of 191 was opened to traffic, and the problem had already been considered, especially near Chita, and eight underground railway lines were designed, which can not only ensure the communication between Chita City and the eight largest nodes in the outside world, such a defense is more powerful

Among the 27 armored trains, most of them are old models, and the new ones have been transferred to Vladivostok, and the only two new ones are 15 inches, and the largest of the remaining ones is 12 inches, but these 27 are enough to provide strategic support firepower to Chita.

In this era, the 230 mm infantry gun is already a pillbox, let alone 15 inches, this is an absolute battleship gun, not the kind of artillery that Germany sieged the city, although it has a caliber of more than 900 mm, but at best it is only a large mortar, his initial velocity, power has this huge flaw, can not be compared with the battleship's naval gun, in terms of range, it is enough to change everything.

With a range of 20 kilometers to the limit, if there is a high ground and an aiming system, it can even be faster, and the train cannon can even be used with its back against Chita, and it can be used flexibly to attack the enemy by surprise.

The line head troops were stagnant, and stopped at a distance of 20 kilometers from Chita, and under the repeated urging of the commander behind, the million troops of the first wave of troops came to the side of Chita, and the Russian front-line commander was already numb in his scalp, and the huge 100 square kilometers dense defense system was simply better than the national defense, such a complete system, what should Russia do?

Russia is relatively closed and has not been more involved in the European war, but as a member of the Entente, the front-line commanders still pay attention to the battlefields in Europe, which is thought that the young commander-in-chief has even been to Bordeaux.

Of course, the experience is not very reminiscent, to be honest, Bordeaux's biggest impression is that human life is not worth much, Russia has enough to ignore the existence of cannon fodder, cannon fodder is called gray livestock, two-legged livestock, there is no value at all, but Bordeaux is according to the elite troops, and even officers and nobles are not human.

It was only a long time since the start of the European War, and the Bordeaux defense line was gradually built up after the fall of Paris, but it was such a young flesh mill-like defense line, in the past time, at least more than 5 million corpses were devoured, even if it was like Russia, taking ordinary people seriously, they couldn't help but feel numb in their scalps, and they used their flesh to resist steel, which was crazy.

At that time, he felt the strength of Britain, France and Germany, and never thought that there would be such a front, which fell on his head, until the front of Chita, he finally understood that Bordeaux was not the only one, and now Chita gave him a sense of Bordeaux, and even said that Bordeaux was more Bordeaux than Bordeaux, he almost didn't have to try, he knew that this must be a perfect line of defense, that is, their 3 million people were filled in, and they might not be able to break through.

The commander of the Russian army hesitated, those who can become the commander of the Russian army are not stupid, they obviously can't fight, but they have to attack forcibly, but they can't go back, the 3 million army is coming, and they have to go back, how to calculate the cost, how to calculate the anger of the tsar, Russia's finances have gone bankrupt, if you go back, Russia will not be able to support the next offensive at all.
