Chapter 778: The First Great Power
Chapter 780 Chapter 780.
The vast wealth of the Russians in the Far East was never transported away, and Meretskov was gathered in several underground warehouses in Vladivostok.
The fortifications in the cave were difficult to penetrate directly even if they were Grand Slams, but they could not stop the continuous attacks of the Chinese infantry.
These places, which are specially marked by spies, are not suitable for fire explosives, and can only rely on elite soldiers to wear thick body armor and fight inch by inch.
These are the places that cause the greatest casualties. If it weren't for the vanguard army's special equipment such as flashbang grenades and gas bombs, as well as the participation of a large number of special forces, Meng Xiang might have directly abandoned some places and directly destroyed the wealth inside with the elite soldiers of Soviet Russia by violent means.
But when the wealth far outweighs the cost of sacrifice, and the glory of the soldiers needs to be washed away with blood, the competition between the elites begins here.
When Natasha killed a Russian colonel who was about to detonate the planted explosives with the intention of dying together, the core warehouse of Far Eastern wealth fell into the hands of the Chinese.
The looting of the Soviets in the Far East in the name of the state is amazing. Meng Xiang was surprised by the wealth that contained the efforts of the Huaxia people and other natives, but it was enough to cover the cost of this base.
Of course, life cannot be measured by wealth.
Although the Russians were annihilated in this battle, the more than 70,000 casualties of the vanguard army also made Meng Xiang's heart ache. Fortunately, less than 20,000 of them were killed, so that this victory was not too heavy.
"With the victory of Vladivostok, we can confidently introduce our new territory of China tomorrow." Yan Xishan said excitedly beside him, glancing at He Yingqin sitting on the other side of the long negotiation table from time to time.
At the same time as the Battle of Vladivostok, many lands east of Mount Sikhote were also marked with the five-star red flag.
Soviet Harbor was easily down, the power of a first-class Red Alert aircraft carrier was enough to sweep away many small and medium-sized ships in the harbor, plus two Cleveland-class light cruisers rushed out from the mouth of the Heilongjiang River again, easily suppressed the resistance of the Pacific Navy and the Amur River Fleet in Soviet Harbor.
Huang Huamin's 10th Army Corps, swept in with the cooperation of aerial bombers, and in just three days the Soviet port was conquered, facing Sakhalin Island on the opposite side.
One of the divisions crossed Mount Sikhot, and in one fell swoop Keadim.
The army swept over, and the entire coastline was bagged one after another.
During this period, the vanguard army once again carried out the tactic of airborne frog jumping, and successively airborne Cape Olyutolsky, Cape Navarin, and the Chukotka Peninsula.
With the support of air firepower, the vanguard army easily conquered the easternmost town in Eurasia, which had become a world-famous walrus ivory carving handicraft workshop in 31 years, and it can be said that the general outline of the northern territory of China had been completed.
The rest needs to be cleared internally, but externally, it can be directly claimed and claimed sovereignty over the corresponding land.
The tiger's body was shocked, and the king's spirit that everyone worshiped swept across the entire north with blood.
Many representatives of indigenous peoples have climbed into the lap of China and joined them.
Someone suggested that Huaxia should become a federation, for the sake of face, but Meng Xiang unceremoniously refused, Huaxia does not need the word federation or alliance, all this territory only belongs to one name, that is, China.
Both humiliation and glory will be preserved and passed on to future generations and grandchildren.
"Tomorrow, we will usher in more glory!" He Yingqin smiled and said disappreciably.
Today their meeting is discussing the celebration of tomorrow's new coalition government.
Lao Jiang didn't come to the meeting, and in the face of the overwhelming situation of the vanguard army, Lao He simply ignored the squeeze of Lao Yan and others, and his face suddenly thickened, and he had quickly entered the role of his own people.
"We will stand on top of the world as the world's largest power!" He Yingqin has already given full play to his advantages at a super level.
……
"We cannot sit idly by as we see a huge Eastern country rising up at our side. We can't watch them cross the Bering Strait someday in the future! Roosevelt's deep voice grew louder and louder in the ears of the bigwigs sitting in his study.
"But our current threat is to the Germans in Europe, even in Asia, there are also Japanese, do we still want to add a huge Chinese empire to the blacklist?" A big man sitting in the middle said disapprehantly, "Even if China has more territory, it is only a big country, not a strong country."
I have been to China, and it will take at least half a century for them to get rid of ignorance. A unified government may be able to run the broadest market for us, which is far better than in the hands of the dictatorial Russians. As long as they open the market, Huaxia can become our friend. As for the threat, that's later. We need Europe now! ”
……
"The first power? In terms of territorial area, we are already the first big country, but the concept of this big country is much different from that of a strong country, we not only need to be big, but also strong, to become stronger! At this time, on the other side of the ocean, Meng Xiang had already delivered his new speech.
