Chapter one hundred and thirty reinforcements
In the situation on the European continent, the power of the allies had an absolute advantage, Greece was crumbling, France was in danger, and even countries like Turkey wanted to take advantage of the situation and sent troops to participate in the Caucasus's battle to attack Russia, but they were caught by Russia, which had lost consecutive battles in recent times, and lost more than 100,000 troops. Turkey, the sick man from Europe finally knew that even though he was lucky in recent times, this lean camel was bigger than a horse, and Russia was not something Turkey could bully.
Although there was a slight setback, overall, the situation in the European continent was undoubtedly tilted towards the allies, and Britain, France, Russia and other countries were unable to deal with it. The blitzkrieg launched by Germany and the new equipment and tactics used extensively in the war were difficult for the Allies to resist for a while, and the comprehensive defeat of the French and Russian fronts was proof of it.
Thanks to the great rise of Germany, Austro-Hungary and Italy, the offensives of Austro-Hungary and Italy were also like fire, and each usurped a lot of results. Italy even expanded its self-confidence, claiming to be the most powerful naval power in the allied countries, and even planning to send troops across the sea to North Africa, targeting the North African colonies of the Allies.
The Allies as a whole were beaten to pieces by Germany and could not react for a while. The huge external colony and deep economic foundation could not play any role at this time. France, the traditional number one power, saw that it was not even safeguarded its capital, and I wonder if it would create an exiled government to come out and make people laugh at it.
The beginning of World War I caused a series of butterfly effects. There were many ambitions around the world and were secretly ready to move, exploring whether they could get something by taking this opportunity. In short, in the second half of 1914, the world was completely in chaos. In Africa, South America, and Asia, there were irrepressible chaos everywhere.
This situation has caused concern for the United States. The rise of allies with Germany as the core will have a huge impact on the existing political and economic order. If the Allies are defeated in the future, once Germany fully establishes the advantages of the European continent, will it maintain the current free economic world order, and will the United States be suppressed by the allies in terms of economic order?
This situation is a potential threat to the United States.
In the United States, the various public opinion disputes caused by this also made the upper class of the United States feel at a loss. Although the diplomatic relations between Britain and France and the United States are relatively closer, the political power of German Americans at home should not be underestimated. What he did to attack each other with British and French Americans and make a fuss, which made Americans actually unable to stay out of the matter.
Now, as the only great power in the world that has not been involved in war, they are facing a world that is perhaps the most difficult choice.
...
Central Asia, Semey region.
It has been a week since the Fifth Army and the Eighth Army of China's Northwest Army surrounded Saimey. During this period, several fierce attacks were unable to conquer due to lack of logistics and lack of sufficient firepower. After all, it is thousands of kilometers away from Xinjiang. It is difficult to transport heavy artillery and shells with large caliber.
Without heavy artillery, ordinary field artillery of the troops will not have any effect on the city's defense fortifications. As the core city of Russia, Semey has always been under pressure from Central Asian countries and China's Xinjiang, and its urban defense is not as slim as those of the previous cities.
While China's attack on Semey was stagnant, more and more Russian troops began to appear in the rear of the enemy. The latest air force reconnaissance shows that the Russian army north of Semey had concentrated nearly 100,000 troops and almost the same number of herder transport troops. If you want to take action against the Fifth and Eighth Army, the National Defense Forces could not capture here for a long time, and they might also be in danger of being surrounded by numerous encirclements.
In the Chinese command center, several Chinese generals formed a circle and were discussing around the military map. Suddenly, the staff officer outside heard the news that tomorrow, reinforcements from the rear would arrive!
Reinforcements!
This news surprised everyone here. Where did the reinforcements come from? There are only a few troops in the Northwest Xinjiang Army, and the country has been dispatched thousands of miles to the place, so it is difficult to transfer them for a while. After the Northeast Military Region of the Domestic China was abolished, the several ace troops there did not transfer them here. This is why.
Now, where did another army come from?
Then, immediately afterwards, before these people could figure out the problem, there was a notice that an important person would come soon and everyone would come to greet him!
What? Important person! Everyone needs to come and greet them! The people here are here with a sense of bosom.
Could it be His Majesty the Emperor?
In the northwest, only His Majesty the Emperor has the qualification to let the military-level figures present go out to welcome them at the same time.
Then, sure enough, in the midst of everyone's look up, the Emperor of the Chinese Empire, Li Zhe, took a giant airship and descended from the grassland, wearing a gorgeous marshal's costume. As soon as he walked out of the cabin, he said to these generals:
"My generals! Three days later! I want you to hang the dragon flag of the Chinese Empire over the city of Semey!"
...
Li Zhe is confident to say this evil.
He brought strong aids that these people would never have imagined, a total of the air force of the aviation division and an airborne army to the Semey theater!
This airborne army, the 17th Army, was exclusive to the Air Force since the beginning, and has been independently and secretly trained. It does not belong to the same system as the generals of these army, and basically rarely participates in joint exercises. Instead, it often has the opportunity to participate in the drills at the same time as several marine divisions on the Marine Corps.
In recent times, due to the rapid growth of the industrial scale of the Chinese Empire and the expansion of territory, the time and space system has been upgraded to another level. Not to mention other rewards, the most affordable thing for Li Zhe is the increase in the number of expeditionary troops. This time, the number limit soared to 8,000. In addition to the managers scattered in various time and space, Li Zhe has an additional quota that can be used for 3,500 people.
This time, the number of expeditionary forces can finally be tilted towards the technical personnel as much as before, and can be used to build the imperial army.
Li Zhe took out 2,500 troops to strengthen the Imperial Air Force and Navy and Army Mechanical Forces. Among them, the Air Force alone had seven or eight hundred ace pilots at one time. In addition, a group of air troops with poor local training were summoned to the army, and the original first air force of the National Defense Forces was finally completed. This time, an aviation division was transferred to the northwest at one time, and along with them were also airborne troops from the Air Force airlifted by the Air Force.
Ground transportation is difficult, but this distance of thousands of kilometers is nothing to the voyage of the giant airship of the Air Force. The airborne army is simple. It only takes a few days for a military personnel to transport equipment to the front line. Now with the support of this aviation division, air bombing, and airborne combat troops entering the city, it is only a matter of time before Semey was taken down.
Li Zhe announced this good news to everyone in the command center, and immediately cheered up the infantry generals. An aviation division was the number of air forces in the empire before. During the founding of the People's Republic of China, two brigades bombed two towns of the Beiyang Army, and one corps could destroy Lushun, and an aviation division. What a great reputation could it have in the northwest.
These old men in the Army were all over the place because of this news for a while.
Li Zhe continued to cheer for his subordinates:
"The Battle of Semey is the best opportunity for us to annihilate the Russian army. These Russian troops have been hidden behind the cold high walls and barriers in Siberia in the past. This time, they finally came out. In Central Asia, we can easily annihilate them all. Don't worry, your Fifth Army and the Eighth Army are definitely not fighting alone this time!
There are more reinforcements coming, and we are going to fight a beautiful annihilation battle here!”
Xiong Kewu, Li Liejun, these people looked at each other. After a long time, Xiong Kewu found out that there was a question.
"Your Majesty! Are the surrendered soldiers surnamed the same equipment as those of us? How good are their combat effectiveness?" Obviously, for the legendary airborne soldiers, these people only heard the sounds and did not meet them. This time they would fight side by side. There were still some doubts in their hearts.
"Haha! Don't worry! Although the Airborne Army is a light armored team, compared to you, except for the lighter artillery equipment, the combat power in other aspects is only strong and not weak. Even when it comes to contact warfare, it is stronger than you. Their team's firepower is stronger and more emphasis is placed on individual combat power. Fighting urban street fighting is their trump card!"
Li Zhe's words temporarily dispelled the questions in the hearts of the people present, and replaced them with a strong sense of competition. In recent days, the status of the Army's traditional infantry has become increasingly lower and lower, first the artillery and then the Marine Division. The armored soldiers in the past few days were very popular, but the good thing was that they were finally out of their own system. Now, even the Air Force has appeared ground troops to compete with these infantrymen. How should traditional infantrymen live in the future? Some people have to think so.
The next day, there were indeed a large group of airships flying from behind one after another, especially the airships. Their physiques were indeed the few infantrymen with short-sighted knowledge, and they could not even get along.
My God, why can this thing fly into the air with such a big figure?
Under the gaze of these army infantry, after the giant airship landed, they came out from the huge cabin in neatly arranged airborne soldiers, brightly dressed airborne soldiers singing the song of airborne soldiers:
"The war song is like thunder, the motor roars,
The heroic airborne troops penetrated deep into the enemy's back.
Sweeping silver light, full of anger,
For the motherland and the people,
The divine weapon descends from the sky to fight.
Insert the enemy's heart, cut off the devil's head,
Eliminate the invaders, not one of them,
Hey, no one left."
It was indeed a mighty and powerful army. Compared with his own family, after struggling on the front line for so long, they all became dilapidated, which was incomparable to the spirit of the airborne soldiers.
This is definitely the elite leader of our emperor!
A veteran said this in his squad leader's ear.
Chapter completed!
