Chapter 14 Chariot II
Although Peng Qingpeng is a native of Suzhou, his figure is stronger than Xu Jingxi, plus one is the main general and the other is a staff officer. It was only after Peng Qingpeng finished his madness and put the person down that Xu Jingxi began to exhale sharply and scolded: "When you were in Nanyang, you liked to hug women and men like that, and after more than ten years, you still don't change your life, it's really ......."
The old classmates who had not seen each other for a long time finally met in the Western Regions, and the pride of drowning in the yellow sand for a long time was finally like a sword out of the sheath, Peng Qingpeng's excitement was indescribable, but Huang Zongwei, chief of staff of the 13th Army, and Zhao Jingnian, political commissar, seemed very calm, although they knew that the war was about to begin, but their expressions were still like a wind and discipline, and they were not chaotic at all.
After tidying up, Xu Jingxi said very formally, "This time we are going to fight across the border, and we will not withdraw after we fight, and we will occupy the entire Turkestan and the steppe governorate as much as possible." ”
"Really?" Hearing that it was to expand the territory, Peng Qingpeng glanced at Xu Jingxi in disbelief, and then at Yang Zengxin, seeing that they didn't seem to be joking, he suddenly became solemn, "Then these four divisions are not enough now!" ”
The 13th Army is basically a miscellaneous army, which includes some peasant soldiers who revolted in the peasant associations, the Shaanxi New Army that raised righteousness, the Gan Army that took refuge in Fu, the new army and the old army in Xinjiang, and so on. In the year of Xinhai, Peng Qingpeng came east with the 38th Division, which was composed of the Shaanxi New Army and peasant soldiers, and then reorganized and reorganized the Gan Army into the 39th Division, and the Xinjiang New Army and the old army that rebelled were organized into the 40th Division. Although it is also in accordance with the field army establishment, there is still a gap between these three divisions and the field divisions in Guannai, only after the 38th division fought a tough battle with the Japanese in Zhili, Peng Qingpeng felt that there was a strong division in hand, and his heart was a little at ease.
In this war against Russia, in addition to the three divisions of the 13th Army, the General Staff also deliberately transferred the 1st Cavalry Division from the Mongolian Military Region, so that the 39th Division (in fact, it is the Ma Jiajun in the Gan Army, the division commander is Ma Fuxiang), and a cavalry brigade of the 40th Division, a total of two and a half cavalry divisions, can be regarded as a touch with the Russian Turkestan Cossack Cavalry Army; The other one and a half divisions, in addition to half of the division to defend the Western Regions, the 38th Division will also go out to fight, but the logo on their uniforms about the revival army has to be dealt with, and if the Chinese army drives to the Russian border, the Entente will be in an uproar again.
More than 40,000 people are fighting, and it is not difficult to deal with only the Russian army in the territory and drive them out of the country, but to occupy the entire Turkestan and the steppe governorate, the forces will not be enough, after all, these forces are too small compared to the places to be occupied.
"The Mongolian side will soon bring in the 2nd Cavalry Division, and if international public opinion is within a controllable range, then more troops will be transferred to Central Asia in the Guannai." Xu Jingxi said what he could say, and he didn't want Peng Qingpeng to ask: "What is the control of international public opinion?" Could it be that as soon as the foreigners oppose it, we will not fight? ”
"Now the Russian army is fighting against the Allies, and once we attack Central Asia in a big way, then under the pressure of Russia, all countries will definitely be dissatisfied with our country, so we must try to avoid this dissatisfaction." Xu Jingxi said, "The reason why the 39th Division, the 1st Mongolian Division, and the 40th Division are the main forces this time is because whether it is the Mongolian people or the Hui people, they are all original races in Central Asia, and they can be said to be Russian civil strife when they go out to fight, and it may not have anything to do with us; It is not the same to transfer troops from the Guannai, such a long journey is absolutely impossible to keep secret, and now it took the old nose effort to change the 38th and 39th divisions from the station. Yanyi, anyway, there are only so many soldiers for the time being, you can watch and use it. ”
"It's really ...... to fight a war and limit the number of troops" Peng Qingpeng glanced at his chief of staff and political commissar with a wry smile, shook his head greatly, and said: "These 40,000 people, what if the Russian army gathers troops to fight back?" ”
"This time, Russia will not be able to fight back for several years." Xu Jingxi said quietly.
"Is this the judgment of the Intelligence Bureau, or is it the judgment of the gentleman?" When Peng Qingpeng heard him say this, he asked anxiously again.
"It's all!" Xu Jingxi replied, he glanced at everyone, and he already saw an incredible light flashing in the eyes of everyone present. He understood that this incredibleness was not due to disbelief, but to disbelief - Russia was no matter how great it was, and it did not want to be completely destroyed this time.
"Mr. said......" Xu Jingxi coughed, as if reading the holy decree, and all the people present, including Yang Zengxin, seemed to be listening to the holy decree, "...... Russia's domestic and external troubles, coupled with the intensification of the Petersburg strike, this time the Romanov dynasty will completely collapse. After that, Russia will continue to have civil strife, and it will continue until one party has defeated all its opponents before it can regain effective rule over the country.
This period of chaos will be three to four years long, and after three or four years, although the country will return to rule, Russia, which has suffered a great loss of vitality due to the European war and the civil war, will not be able to compete with us for Central Asia even if it mobilizes a large army, so we will have 20 years to control Central Asia for 20 years. Sir, he said, don't worry about the lack of soldiers, our enemy is not only weak, but also chaotic; As long as Britain, France, the United States, and other countries do not interfere with our intervention in Central Asia, the troops in the pass can be transferred into Central Asia in a steady stream, even including the chariot troops.
