Chapter 656

In the name of liberation

"It turns out that there are so many branches of the Mongolian tribe!" Meng Xiang looked at the intelligence of the Mongolian soldiers recruited and sighed.

In fact, the tribes on the Mongolian steppe do not all recognize only one nation, and the Siberian Plain is artificially divided into several major ethnic groups by the Soviet Russians, the Khalkha Mongols, the Oirats, the Durbots, etc. are all Mongol systems.

In any nation, there is always no shortage of people with ambitions, and only one move is to divide and split, and then let the contradictions be transferred, this trick is not only used by the Soviet Russians, but also by the British to colonize the world. Ah San has been tossing several times in the hands of the British.

This was originally a competition between ethnic groups for red fruits. It does not matter whether it is controlled by war, economy, religion, etc., just to weaken the opponent and strengthen oneself. Momentary kindness is only afraid to sow the seeds of future generations in the future.

In the past, the Jurchens built the Jin Dynasty from a small tribe of thousands of people and destroyed the rich Northern Song Dynasty; Later, the Mongol tribes, which also rose as small tribes, swept across the Danube; After hundreds of years, the Jurchens, who had risen from decline again, took advantage of the "chaos" to replace the Ming Dynasty, which never gave up in foreign wars, and in turn adopted the method of reducing Ding, so that the tribes that had been competing with the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years in the Mongolian steppe were once again slumped and eliminated the threat from the Mongolian cavalry.

After that, although the lucky Jurchen withdrew from the supreme authority, under the balance of other people's infighting, the strong race was unscathed. The change of dynasty throughout the ages has never been so lucky.

On the Siberian plains, the indigenous peoples were not so lucky. The restrictions were removed, and in later generations, the largest population was already Russia, an alien nation. Even if a referendum is held, it will inevitably be the voice of one nation.

Of course, in this era, the population of ethnic Russians is not actually superior. Even with the addition of the major ethnic groups, the population of Siberia as a whole hovers around 10 million.

Such a large and despicable territory made it impossible for the Russians to digest it even if they swallowed it. Until later generations, even though Soviet Russia issued a series of incentive policies after World War II, the population of Siberia only reached 40 million. Even after the collapse of Soviet Russia, the population decreased dramatically.

The Russians saw the suppression of the local minorities, so they adopted very despicable national means to suppress them. This also made the local ethnic minorities have no good impression of it, and the comparison of various promises made by the pioneer army after liberation made them have a lot more expectations for the pioneer army.

"This time it's not just the Mongols, all kinds of ethnic groups have come out at once, and some of them haven't even heard of it!" Fan Chong also sighed.

This recruitment work was not only concentrated in Outer Mongolia, but even in the Urals and Siberia at this time, there were ethnic minorities who came to take refuge. They may not be able to play with modern weapons, but they are excellent guides, and the local geography is more familiar to the natives than the Russians. Under many extreme policies of Soviet Russia, even some ethnic Russians came to take refuge, and some even took out tokens from the White Russian period to win the trust of the vanguard army.

"It is better to have more help and more friends than more enemies! Be reasonable with them, not slack, not conniving! Meng Xiang reminded with his head bowed. This is the time to buy people's hearts and fight for morality, and it is not to be ignored.

Even the international community cannot say anything about the resumption of the land ceded by the original treaty of refusal. However, regions such as Siberia and the Urals were already internationally acquiesced as Soviet Russian territory, and the vanguard army attacked them directly, and if it were not for the European countries themselves, I am afraid that they would have provoked a lot of criticism. Rao is like this, and there are also internationalists who wave their flags and scold them.

At this time, the vanguard threw out the cries of representatives of the indigenous peoples of Siberia. The voices of those who held up real information to accuse Soviet Russia of evil and called for their liberation were tear-jerking, and it was not in vain that Meng Xiang had prepared two or three years in advance.

The teacher is famous, with the two concepts of morality and non-morality, how can Meng Xiang, who has experienced many invincible nirvana techniques that have been publicized by later generations, fall behind in international public opinion propaganda? Even when Lao Xi attacked Soviet Russia, he was shouting for liberation, and the Japanese even had a co-prosperity in Greater East Asia, and after learning from the people's sovereignty and free spirit that the Americans would never leave in the future, Meng Xiang had already prepared an excuse for justice.

While liberating the suffering indigenous peoples of Siberia, the local indigenous peoples also came in large numbers. Of course, in addition to deliberate propaganda, the policies and benefits such as subsistence allowance on the land of the vanguard army are more attractive. For many people, liberation from the cold government and hunger of Soviet Russia also added a kind of expectation, and since then, the name of the vanguard army has often been preceded by the word liberation.

At this time, more than 50,000 vanguard troops in the name of liberation blocked the vicinity of the Ural Pass, resisting the reinforcements from Europe to the death.

The Russians did not slow down after being caught off guard by the Germans, who also carried the slogan of liberation. The Western Front was a retreat, and Moscow began to think about the stability of the rear while mobilizing forces to support the front line in the west.

Taking into account the role of the strategic rear of the Ural region, Moscow still ordered the Ural Military District to gather and counterattack to the east, and at the same time transferred troops from the Volga Military District and the Sub-Military District to join this support mission.

Without waiting for the Soviet-Mongolian divide to start, the battle in the Urals began first.

In addition to those Hercules and the second-class Red Police transport planes in the ultra-long-distance airlift, those short-legged Junkers and other transport planes have also joined the ranks of transporters, even if they can't reach the Urals, but they only need to reach Omsk, which has just been occupied by the vanguard army, and then they can take a train, along the big railway that was urgently repaired, directly to the west, until they reach the vicinity of Chelyabinsk, which also fell into the hands of the vanguard army.

After more than a week of attack, the passage had been initially controlled by the vanguard army, and the fighting was suppressed at both ends of the railway, where it exploded more violently in the Ural Pass and Novosibirsk.

Sverdrovsk, which was once named Yekaterinburg, was also conquered by the vanguard army, and the Ural Pass here also needed to be defended, and the more than 60,000 people who were transported in a row were separated from each other, and the number was much less.

The 150,000-strong Russian army was only gathered in the Ural Pass, and more reinforcements were being rushed over.

Part of the reinforcements assembled from the Volga Military District directly bypassed the Ural Mountains and struck directly along the Ural River from Orenburg and other places to Magnitogorsk, which was controlled by the vanguard army. Even Moscow ordered the assembly of a division of troops from the Leningrad Military District from the still cold Arctic Circle to Salehard, the only city in the Arctic Circle that the vanguard army had not yet controlled.

In the north, the vanguard army only placed a reconnaissance infantry of less than 1,000 people north of Tobolsk, and the climate and geography of the north made the vanguard army dare not occupy it on a large scale, but adopted the tactic of shrinking the defense, after all, the vanguard army was tight at this time, and it could not take care of the vast Siberian Plain.

The continuous airlift of the vanguard army has crossed 150,000 people to this primitive land. In addition to the 50,000 people blocking the Urals, another 40,000 people are defending in the direction of Central Asia.

The 132nd Division of Zhang Zizhong's Eighth Army had already joined up with the paratrooper infantry that had taken Ust-Kamenogorsk by surprise and held the northeastern defense of Central Asia, but in the northwest, which was close to the European zone of Soviet Russia, the few men and horses that had been airborne in the past were likely to be outflanked and wiped out. Therefore, having reached the front line of Magnitogorsk and Chelinograd and protected the south of Chelyabinsk, the vanguard army no longer attacked south, but adopted the tactics of garrison.

Also because of the tension of the military, it can no longer be attacked. It was already very difficult for 40,000 people to defend the long and thousands of miles, and if it were not for the vanguard army's convenient air reconnaissance and advanced communication tools, as well as mechanized transportation, I am afraid that this would not have been possible at all.

Because the Eighth Army of the Vanguard Army was slowly posing a threat to the Asian hinterland, the fighting on the Central Asian side had not yet begun large-scale firefighting. At this time, the most fierce fighting was in the east.

In addition to the 20,000 garrisons in the occupied territories, more than 30,000 people stood on the city of Novosibirsk, where the heavily defended Russian army competed for the new industrial city with the third most populous Russian city in later history.

"Don't be afraid of destruction, if you smash it, we'll build something better!" When Meng Xiang's instructions were transmitted to the headquarters of the 16th Army Corps on the Siberian front along the airwaves, Li Tiexia threw off his hat, and the roars of the two 203mm TM-8 train guns and the two 180mm 0TM-1-180 train guns under his command burst out with the highest notes.

And this does not in any way hide the prestige of the vanguard cannon.

The tremor of the ground caused by the 380-millimeter cannon bombardment, which was fired every three minutes, made the Russian soldiers look at the collapsed houses one by one in horror and fall into despair.
