Chapter 958 Sweeping Siberia

Shortly after Germany launched the Kaiser's Offensive against the Allied Powers, China finally formally declared war on the Russian Provisional Government. The pretext for the declaration of war was naturally the Russian Provisional Government's default. In the past, the United States, Britain and France helped pay the bill, so the Russians could obtain a large amount of supplies from China.

But with the establishment of the Russian Provisional Government, friends turned into enemies.

People, the Allied Powers will naturally not pay the bill, but at the same time, in order to enhance its own strength, the Russian Provisional Government seized all Chinese materials located in Russia. As for how to pay, it did not mention a word, not to mention that China originally planned to invade Russia.

, even if there is no intention to fight, such an incident will lead to the outbreak of war!

After the war, the direct intervention of Germany that China was worried about did not happen. After Germany and the Russian Provisional Government reached an agreement, the German Army still left nearly 100,000 combat troops in Russia. The main task of this army was to help Russia.

The provisional government eliminated any resistance forces and consolidated the dominance of the provisional government. At first, Xu Jie was worried that the arrogant William would order the German troops stationed in Russia to participate in a direct battle against China, but in fact

The situation is that although Germany does not recognize China's occupation of Russia, it does not want to completely fall out. Its help to Russia is limited to training the army and returning prisoners and some supplies. Not only did the German troops stationed in Russia not participate in the battle against China, they even

None of the Russian troops fighting against China had German standard weapons, and when China and Germany reached an agreement again, Germany's return of supplies and prisoner repatriation to the Russian Provisional Government also came to a standstill.

A newly established regime, which could not completely suppress even the domestic opposition, naturally established an effective defense in the face of the Chinese attack. From the perspective of the northern route, the only relatively strong resistance Nie Shicheng encountered was in Irkuz.

There is an infantry division and an artillery regiment of the Russian Army near Croatia. This is already the largest heavy troop group left by Russia in the Far East. However, facing hundreds of thousands of Chinese Army, this

A division-level battle group was swept away without even lasting a day. Nie Shicheng's remaining tasks can almost be described as sweeping along the Trans-Siberian Railway. As for the areas around the railway, they were handed over to the subsequent garrison.

The army is responsible for cleaning up. Although these second-line troops have poor combat effectiveness, their advantage is their huge size. They can completely clear out the resistance forces along the transportation lines one by one according to the transportation lines.

For Nie Shicheng, the real challenge does not lie in the opponent's frontal attack. Because the war has reached this level, the Russian Army cannot confront the Chinese Army in a frontal manner. The real trouble lies in the long geographical distance and the protection of communication lines. More

The most important thing is to suppress the surrounding resistance forces. The guerrillas are the first and last enemy that a regular army needs to face! As a time traveler, Xu Jie has already figured out a way to deal with it before the official war begins.

Russia can be described as vast and sparsely populated, and this is especially true in the Far East. The prerequisite for a guerrilla force to successfully carry out operations is the support of living local civilians. If this basic condition is lost, then guerrilla warfare will not grow.

soil, so all Xu Jie had to do was spread the

The Russian civilians were gathered together and managed in a unified way. This is not a simple cage policy. To make the Russians really stop resisting, it is not something that can be done with restrictions. At the same time, the Russians must understand that they will get more benefits in China.

A good life without being oppressed by the aristocratic lords of the past.

So after they are gathered together, the only thing left is to arrange jobs for them and give them higher remuneration. This will be a crucial period of stability, and now China really needs a group of manpower to provide all kinds of equipment needed by the expeditionary force.

It is too difficult to transport materials to the rear. It is most convenient to use the local materials and equipment for processing. As for the last step, it is to mix and match the indigenous people and the new immigrants. Of course, all this requires a long time

time to realize.

Nie Shicheng's journey was easy, and Ma Yukun's journey was equally pleasant. For those powerful factions in Central Asia, China did not implement tough military measures, but negotiated with them. As long as it could provide roads and supplies needed along the way, then China would

You can provide it with weapons and other support, and you can fight it as you like.

In this way, as long as it does not affect the passage of China, it will be fine. Therefore, except for the initial large-scale conflicts with local civilian armed forces to control the Balkesh Lake area, Ma Yukun's troops did not have many large-scale battles.

We can fight, of course, but small-scale battles against various horse bandits to ensure the safety of transportation lines happen every day.

The only one who needed to fight a tough battle was Peng Yi's center. They were like a sharp blade piercing directly into the depths of Russia. After capturing Rubtsovsk, they and some of Denikin's troops who were temporarily living in Omsk

There was a large-scale battle with the Russian local troops. Denikin and Kolchak's troops and equipment came from China, so they built the training camp of this follow-up unit in the Omsk area, where they received equipment and training at the same time.

when

After the Russian Civil War broke out, Denikin's training troops loyal to the Tsar quickly took over the local power and continued to transport soldiers and supplies to Denikin and Kolchak's ministries fighting in Eastern Europe. Of course, as supplies could only go out, this

The equipment and ammunition accumulated in the area were rapidly decreasing, but even so, Denikin refused to abandon the fortress, and tried to get in touch with the Allies, and then continued to cooperate with China to use Chinese resources to support the frontline war.

But it is a pity that the Allies are willing to continue to help this force trained by them, but China is not willing to continue to help. The two sides have changed from partners to enemies. And Denikin's rear will naturally become China's key attack

Target, I have to say that Denikin's troops are indeed far stronger than the average Russian army.

Even the reserve troops showed better quality than the Russian border defense forces that Nie Shicheng dealt with. However, facing Peng Yi's troops who had dual advantages in equipment and strength, after holding on for less than four days near Omsk, Denikin's troops finally

It was also the largest reserve force that was completely wiped out, with a total of 30,000 people wiped out.

After clearing out this unit, Peng Yi's battle was just the beginning. As it got closer to the core of Russia, the resistance of the local people, especially the nobles, became more and more fierce. As the largest loyalist force in Russia

Party forces, Denikin and Kolchak must not watch their rear bases being eaten away bit by bit. Many troops originally used to fight against the Russian Provisional Government were transferred back from the front line.

, used to resist Peng Yi's attack, and the latter's internal logistics problems slowed down the attack speed. The two sides eventually formed a confrontation near Kurgan. Peng Yi needed time to consolidate the rear, and Denikin also needed to concentrate his forces.

To deal with this decisive battle. The only difference is that Peng Yi has a strong country to provide him with everything he needs, while Denikin's troops have almost lost all their supplementary capabilities.
