After the victory march broke out in Shenyang, victory marches broke out in Harbin, Changchun, Jilin City, Qiqihar, Hailar, Jinzhou, Anshan, Yanji, Kulun, Rehe, Chifeng, and even in Vladivostok. Two days later, victory parades were held in Beijing, Shanghai, and Wuhan to celebrate the great victory of the Chinese intervention forces, and the joy of the victory diluted the shadow of the unfavorable negotiations.

Dongfang Hong ran into the propaganda office with newspapers from all over the country, and said excitedly to Pu Ji: "Minister, look at it, look at it, now the whole country is in a good place, if we make good use of the feelings of the people of the whole country, when Xiushuai goes south in the future, we can sweep the world, the people's will, the people's desire." He added: "If you don't form a political party now, you will be taken advantage of in the future, and I have heard that some people in the government are also preparing to do this." ”

"Who?" Puji asked.

"Zhang Kuian, Chief Zhang."

Pu Ji wondered: "Isn't he named in the General Staff?" ”

Dongfang Hong said: "He just changed his name." In the future, Xiushuai will calm the world, Zhang Kuian will not stay in the army, and should hold important positions in the government. Therefore, he formed a political party to leave a way for himself in advance, and there was no political party support in the province at that time. If he first formed a political party that worships the martial generals, minister, you have spared no effort to promote Xiushuai for so many years, but you have made wedding dresses for others. Pu Jishen nodded thoughtfully, but said that he would talk about it after Xiushuai returned to China, and Dongfang Hong would accept it if he didn't have any savings to persuade him.

At the time when the Russians were mobilizing their forces, Wang Maoru and the military commanders of the Volga Army were also studying the next strategic purpose. Whether to continue to attack Charitsyn in the south.

In the headquarters, those holding cigarettes, drinking tea, carrying cigarette sticks, and wiping command knives were all anxiously pondering the current situation. Wang Maoru smoked domestic cigars and always felt that the taste was not as good as Cuban cigars, but Cuban cigars were difficult to get. Everyone in the military has a share. Pu Lao Da Pu Na is now the director of the General Administration of Anti-Smoking in the five provinces, and the governor of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Mongolia and Rehe buys, sells, grows, purchases, processes and prices all tobacco soil. And has a strong anti-smoking corps. In addition to opium, the General Anti-Smoking Directorate also regulates the manufacture and sale of cigarettes. Tobacco planting, management of high-end cigarettes such as cigars, it can be said that the three most profitable industries in the five provinces, tobacco, banks, and mining Puna themselves accounted for one.

Since Puna was almost caught and beheaded by Yuan Shikai's subordinates five years ago, he no longer dares to make a rash move, especially as Wang Maoru's status rises, but he has become more and more cautious. Nowadays, he took the initiative to provide high-end cigarettes such as domestic cigars smoked by officers. For an official or businessman, being rich is a good thing, but being too rich is not a good thing, and Puna is uneasy.

Wang Maoru flirted with the map, took a puff of the top cigar produced by Pune's tobacco company, and said with a smile: "When outsiders see it, they think our headquarters is on fire." The crowd laughed. He stood up, pointed to the map, and took the lead in saying, "Let me tell you what I think first, and then you can talk about what you think." The three stinkers are Zhuge Liang. I thought that the Soviet Russian rebels regrouped in Saratov, they would certainly not be satisfied with the defense of Saratov, they were not fools. It would have been enough to hold Saratov with only one remnant of the 1st Army and the River Flotilla, but we have information that they are concentrating a large number of forces. Ladies and gentlemen, I thought that Soviet Russia wanted to defeat our Volga army, and then directly attack the temporary capital of Ufa and give Tsarist Russia a ferocious right hook. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think? ”

"Xiushuai, it is extremely difficult for the rebels to cross the river, right?" Fei Chaogui said.

"I think their purpose is to cover Army Group South." At this time, Li Pinxian said, and when he saw everyone looking at him, he said: "It is said that the enemy's Southern Front is about to defeat Denikin's army, and they can draw a large number of troops to besiege us." The crowd gathered around and carefully studied the situation.

Everyone spoke freely and analyzed the current situation, and finally Yong Xingbao, chief of staff of the 10th Division, got up to analyze the situation and believed that the Russians must have changed their strategic goals, and they had decided to destroy the Volga Army first, instead of waiting for the victory in the decisive battle of Kazan. Therefore, whether it was the gathering of Saratov or the northward movement of the Southern Front, it showed that they must be extremely prepared to take revenge on their Volga army. The enemy was not to repel the Volga army, but to encircle and annihilate it, to destroy the Chinese. If the Chinese army participating in the war is eliminated, for the Soviet Russians, whether it is militarily, politically, or internationally, it will definitely be unprecedentedly enhanced.

In fact, as early as three days ago, Yong Xingbao mentioned to Yalisto, chief of the General Staff of the Volga Army, the feasibility analysis of this feasibility of reshaping the direction of the entire Russian civil war, but this huge plan was immediately rejected by Yaliskov.

Yaliskov did not attach much importance to Yong Xingbao, a Chinese staff officer, and it was not surprising that he believed that Soviet Russia was simply retaliating. Yong Xingbao had no choice but to find Wang Maoru directly and analyze the possibility of Soviet Russia's current actions from him. He believed that the Soviet Russian side was making strategic adjustments, and they had the opportunity to concentrate their forces to annihilate Denikin's army after repulsing it, but because of their own southward movement, the Soviet Russian side readjusted its strategic objectives. On the observation map, the Eastern Front of Soviet Russia has been divided into the Southern Campaign Group of the Eastern Front Army and the Northern Campaign Group of the Eastern Front, and now the Southern Campaign Group is moving south day and night under the leadership of Fu Zhilong.

"That's right! Right! After listening to Yongxingbao's analysis, Wang Maoru listened to Yongxingbao's analysis, stared at the map and nodded: "Peiyu's words can be said to have solved the doubts in my heart." ”

Wang Maoru's originally vague idea gradually became clear, that is, Soviet Russia was no longer satisfied with revenge for its search for Zinoviev, but made a strategic change. He originally thought that the Russian Red Army was sending troops to Saratov in order to rescue Zinoviev, but after Yong Xingbao's reminder, he suddenly found that it was very likely that they were not here to save anyone, they were here to destroy their own troops. For this reason, the Russian Red Army even changed its strategic goal of defeating Kolchak's corps first, and it must be Trotsky, the supreme leader of the Soviet Russian Military Council, who can carry out such a large-scale strategic transfer at this time.

"That's true, they're too maneuvering." Wang Maoru looked at the map and guessed, muttering to himself.

"What did you say?" Chief of Staff Yaliskov asked.

Wang Maoru pointed to arrows on the map, which represented a group of Soviet Russian troops heading for Berkrovsk, and while they were converging on Berkrovsk, what was surprising was that the Soviet and Russian Volga Inland River Fleet was moving south very slowly along the Volga River.

"Why is it so slow?" Wang Maoru said loudly to everyone: "This is because the Soviet and Russian sides have regarded us as a sign of breaking the balance of power between the two sides, and they are vainly trying to fight a decisive battle with us here and destroy us. ”

"Shall we fight them?" Yaliskov said excitedly.

Wang Maoru said: "No, since they have changed their strategic goals, we have also changed our strategic goals. He stood up and said to you, "We can't do the same, the Russian rebels must have seen through our strategic intentions, and they want to consume all our forces in this unimportant city of Berkrovsk." ”

Yaliskov nodded and said, "I agree with you, I also think that the rebels have changed their strategic goals, and we must change them too, and I think that since they are here to fight with us, we are also here to give them a hard punch." ”

Wang Maoru immediately shook his head and asked Yongxingbao on the side: "Peiyu, what do you think?" ”

Yaliskov glanced at Yong Xingbao in surprise, this staff officer had proposed to him to build a yì, but he didn't think that this young man had any talent, he was just grandstanding, he didn't expect Wang Maoru to ask him.

"We should get out of here." A staff officer said.

Wang Maoru nodded and said, "Berkrovsk is not important, and it is within the range of the enemy's river fleet, so it is not suitable for defense, so we should withdraw to Magern Town." ”

"Handsome and wise." Someone immediately patted the sycophants.

Yong Xingbao bit his lip, stared at the map of Russia with all his attention, and suddenly shouted loudly: "No, we can't go, we don't fight to the death with them, we drag them here." ”

"What?" Yaliskov said, "This ...... It's incredible, no, it's not how we Russians fight. ”

Wang Maoru said with a smile: "I am Chinese, not Russian. He smiled and said to Yong Xingbao: "Go on, what do you think?" Why hold them back? ”

Yong Xingbao said: "The Russians must want to eat us, they will definitely concentrate their absolute forces to destroy us, and in this way, they will definitely mobilize the Southern Front from Tsaritsyn, and the Eastern Front from Kazan - and judging by the information we have now, they have already begun to do so." Our army will only hold on to this area and succeed in attracting heavy enemy forces here, which will turn the tide of the battle. The mobilization of soldiers from Kazan by the rebel Eastern Front is equivalent to us helping Kolchak, so that Kolchak's headquarters can defeat the Northern Campaign Cluster of the Eastern Front of the Russians with all their might, and then let Kolchak attack Moscow, so as to mobilize the entire Soviet Russian army once again and disrupt the Soviet Russian battle plan! ”

"Let Kolchak ......," Yaliskov said with his mouth wide open in disbelief, "attacking Moscow?!" ”

Wang Maoru also said in surprise: "You mean attacking Moscow? Let Kolchak attack Moscow? ”

Yong Xingbao said: "Yes, let Kolchaka attack Moscow, we are like a magnet in Berkrovsk, attracting Soviet Russian troops in a steady stream." ”

Wang Maoru held his chin, stroked his mustache, and was silent, Yong Xingbao finished the plan with a bright face, and suddenly realized a very strict thing, that is, in this plan, the Volga Army led by the ** team will be used as a bait - how many squadrons will be sacrificed for the Russian civil war? He hesitated for a moment.
