In Siberia in the north, the temperature began to drop. After more than a week of rapid march, this time, due to the urging of the Tsar and the Russian government, coupled with the inauguration of some materials, the east and west sides were moving very quickly, especially in the Far East. They knew very well that Chita was in a situation where they were. Those who were leaning against a huge force could not protect themselves, let alone them. If Chita could not capture Chita, they would reconnect them with the country. By the beginning of next spring, the other side would stabilize the Chita defense line. After mobilizing troops in the country, they would face a catastrophe.

If the Red Tower is not opened, they will be quite passive in the spring of next year. Unlike the officials and men far away in Europe, they are located in the Far East and bordering China. They are more intuitive about China's changes. Especially since the Beiyang was incorporated into China, in less than a year, the entire Northeast has become a solid line of defense just like the place they seized before. They have attacked for so long without any gains. China has more than 400 million people, nearly half of the young and middle-aged people, growing up constantly, and their mobilization capabilities are almost 2-3 times that of Russia. With excellent weapons and strict training, I really don't know why the Tsar angered such a country and such an army power, they have not caused trouble for Russia. Why did Russia go to this muddy water?

Unfortunately, the Tsar could not hear or approve of the opinions of the Far East. He could not think that Russia is worse than China. Under such circumstances, there is only one way of war.

The 500,000 troops in the Far East were just the last attempt to storm. On around October 20, the army of both sides arrived around Chita. At 50 kilometers away from Chita, due to the destruction of the railway line and the railway bridge was also blown up, they had to get off and the train turned into a walk, even for each division. Russia has more than 4,000 horses, a distance of 50 kilometers, and one division has more than 10,000 people and more than 4,000 horses. It is only responsible for logistics, and there is no need to worry about the others. They can only rely on a pair of legs to move forward.

At a distance of 50 kilometers, the Russian army had almost two days, and a million troops approached Chita again. The clouds of war came again. Just when they got off the train, there were scouts monitoring the entire process. The entire Mongolian military region and the nearby special forces were all going to deal with the exiles, but the remaining scouts were still not something that the Russian army could find. This was a difference in quality.

Before the siege began, the basic situation of attacking 1 million Russian troops had already reached the hands of the Chinese army. Not all new recruits, but the number of new recruits was as high as 60%, which was 5 times that of the Chita defenders. However, the number of artillery was probably less than one-third of the new army, and 80% were artillery below 100 mm. Such artillery, let alone dealing with new cities built on Chita, even ordinary reinforced concrete cities, would not be able to break. Although the war had not yet begun, the possibility of them returning in vain was extremely high, and even the Mongolian and Northern Legion had made plans to counterattack.

The Tsar was very arrogant, but the top leaders in the army, including Petervic, knew it very well. This time, it may be a waste of effort, but the necessary tests are still necessary. In any case, it is unacceptable to give the Red Tower to the Chinese people. With the tentative actions of these millions of troops, the orders issued to the army commander were clearly explained, and there is no need to be too tough. Test it out and withdraw if there is no chance.

With the advantage of high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, the Northern Mongolian Army had already figured out the Russian army's virtuality and reality. Relying on Chita's defense, it was already on the verge of the Russian army. The Russian army on both sides encountered strong blockades 2.8 kilometers and 1.7 kilometers away from Chita respectively. After three days of fierce battle, the Russian army barely hit the city of Chita from the outside. This was under the active concession of the Chinese army. The distance of several kilometers was covered with blood from the Russian army. The Russian army could not hold on in the end. The Russian army from the Urals suffered 35% of the combat losses, while the Far East suffered 56%. The reason for the excessive damage to the Far East was that they were more urgent to open Chita. When they met the Northwest Army armed to the teeth, no matter how hard they persisted, it had no effect. Instead, the casualties were rising.

The three-day offensive had minimal damage to Chita, exceeding the Russian army's imagination of artillery, light and heavy machine guns, and three-dimensional defense. These were enough to kill a large number of Russian troops at the fastest and most reasonable angle. In the end, the Russian army retreated dozens of kilometers and did not dare to continue moving forward.

The three-dimensional defense in the northwest caused huge damage to the Russian army. In three days, the million-dollar army lost another 400,000. The fierce battle situation made Petervic and Nicholas II not expect why the Chinese army was so powerful, especially in all reports, the losses in the city were not shown. According to the Russian army's observation, the losses in the city were minimal.

This was somewhat unacceptable to Nicholas II, and even wanted to issue an order to continue attacking. The Russian army lost 400,000. I think the Chinese army should be at the end of its strength, and maybe they will take it down even more.

The life of Nicholas II was not continued because of Petervic's obstruction. Petervic carefully analyzed the battle report and concluded that the conclusion was similar to the front line. China was indeed a magical nation. In just one month, it transformed the Red Tower very firmly. The three-dimensional fortress-level fortifications were not originally attacked by infantry, not to mention that there were so many artillery in the northwest.

Under Petervic's persuasion, Nicholas II gave up the idea of ​​letting the Russian army continue to attack, but he was very surprised in his heart, do the Chinese have magic? Could it be that before, when conquering Chita, the city defense of Chita did not consume Chita and so many artillery, how did the Chinese transport it to Chita?

Countless questions lingered in his heart. In the real Battle of Chita, the Mongolian-North Army killed 400,000 Russian troops, and its own losses were indeed minimal. Chita's three-dimensional defense, coupled with the lack of heavy firepower, was unable to shake the root of Chita's roots under the impact of the sea of ​​people. In three days, more than a large number of Russian casualties were caused, but Chita's casualties were not even thousands, only a few hundred casualties, and even no more than 100 were directly killed or disabled.

In the fortress without heavy firepower, the fortress with forced attacks and stable defense, so many deaths were still light. A row of Russian troops charged up and were greeted by machine guns and light firepower. A row of bullets came down, and almost all casualties rose sharply.

After hundreds of thousands of casualties were left, both Russian troops retreated. Without the orders above, the two Russian troops did not evacuate and rested more than ten kilometers away from Chita. They did not expect that the Chinese did not intend to let them go.

The main force of the Northern Mongolian Army should be to guard Chita and Made and Sales City. Although some can be drawn, a reserve team must be left behind to prevent accidents. The only one who can attack the Russian army is the mobile force. The First Armored Division has already received orders and quietly ambushed around Chita. The First Armored Division has strong equipment and outstanding tank attack ability. However, in the choice of the two armies, only one can be chosen. After all, the previous losses have not been compensated. Even if the First Armored Division can defeat one quickly, it must rest, otherwise it will be easy to lose huge losses.

In terms of choice between the two sides, the one who chose to go to the eastern part of Chita was very simple. The eastern part was suffering heavy casualties, with 500,000 Russian troops losing 56%, more than half of which were left, with more than 200,000 left, and the morale was low, which was the best choice.

This time, the tanks did not choose to attack during the day, but chose night. The Russian army did not expect that at this time, the Chinese army did not firmly defend the city defense, but instead wanted to annihilate them. More than 200 heavy tanks rushed into the camp. In order to guard against the camp built by ordinary infantry, in front of the tank, the battle was like half of the paper. After most of the night, the Russian army collapsed and lost 120,000 that day. Next, the tanks were chased by another 80,000, leaving only 40,000 people, and fled back to Vladivostok in shame.

When the news of the Russian army being attacked was reported by telegrams and messengers, the Russian army from Ural Mountain on the other side did not dare to stay at all, joking, waiting to be annihilated, they quickly left, Chita returned to peace again, and the battle of Chita came to an end.

After Nicholas II learned the news, he didn't say anything for a long time. Petervic opposite him did not dare to say much. It took a long time later that Nicholas II said: "You think, do we underestimate the Chinese too much? Even if we reorganize a 3 million army, can we win?"

Petervic was very helpless. He knew that the loss of a large number of troops in a short period of time had caused Nicholas II to lose confidence, but could he make this judgment?

Fortunately, Nicholas II did not force him to answer directly, but asked him to recruit and train recruits. A few days later, a batch of 12 tons of gold was paid directly from the Tsar's treasury to purchase various large-caliber artillery and light and heavy machine guns. The war in the Far East made Russia know something. Automatic firepower and artillery changed the situation of the war. Although the Tsar felt very painful, he still did this in order to defeat China and regained his territory. After all, in the American loan bill, there were only conventional weapons, light weapons, automatic firepower, and even artillery, which had certain specifications. If you want to increase it, you must take out real money.
