Germany recruited 1 million mercenaries from Lanfang. They will become the first group of troops of the newly established mercenary group of Germany. The unique environment in Southeast Asia makes them not suitable as a training place. China's nearly unlimited transportation capacity is demonstrated here. After the selection, the Germans first loaded such a group of troops. They will reorganize them in Basra and armed them with the help of weapons imported from China. Some of the officers and non-commissioned officers will also be in place. They will come through the 3b railway. Although the 3b railway has been cut off, thousands of non-commissioned officers can still come through various methods. As for time, the battle in Italy has begun, but no matter how much, if Britain and France occupy the entire Italy, it will take time, and they will have a few more months. ~,

In fact, half a month later, after Basra formed the army, the quality of this group of troops was still more satisfying to the accepted German officials. In order to help, China sent some translators to help, and even Lan Fang had a large number of translators. As for the natives, few people could understand their native language. However, in Lan Fang, they popularized Chinese. In 2 months, they could basically solve the language barrier and become a qualified army. They were much worse than Germany in strength, but they were much stronger than the colonial army. They could at least deal with the alliance team and not be at an absolute disadvantage.

After occupying southern Italy, the Allied forces slowed down and attacking Germany was imperative, but there was less loss. Italy was the core of the Allied, but it had always been like a fence-bearing man. He leaned in that direction, and even before joining the Allied, he also met the Allied. Several diplomats sent by Italy came to London in particular to conduct diplomatic mediation and strive to withdraw from the war in a more decent way.

If this object was replaced by Germany, the British would definitely not agree, but Italy is a different matter. Britain's biggest enemy is always Germany, in order to deal with Germany. All enemies can be used, including Italy. Diplomacy efforts and mediation began like this. At first, Italy was very unwilling to accept it and wanted to get things that were not obtained in the war at the negotiating table. However, there was no gain in several contacts. Moreover, in Italy's residence and war situation, the Allies advanced rapidly and annihilated at least 200,000 Italian troops. Italy completely let go and fight, maybe Italy was in danger of destroying its country. After seeing Italy's weakness, France also mobilized its forces to take action from northern Italy, and under the premise that destruction was near, Italy surrendered.

Diplomatic mediation and mutual exchanges took time. After a while, time went by April 1915. Almost two months were enough to prepare Germany. After two months of training, the newly joined troops were temporarily integrated. No matter what, it could come in handy. Of course, Germany could not rely entirely on these Lanfang mercenaries to divide 1 million into two parts, part 900,000 and part 100,000 and part 100,000 German troops quietly came to the border between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Italy. They would join the 700,000 Austro-Hungarian team to jointly deal with the attacks of the Allies. The other part, more than 100,000, was placed in the north and joined the war to liberate Baku. This was the best choice.

Finally, under the leadership of the government, Italy surrendered to the Allies, and the remaining Italian troops became the vanguard and came to the border of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Unfortunately, the Allies were fully prepared, with at least 2 million people, located above the key points near the Albis Mountains. This part of the Italian troops was destined to have no gains.

In the spring of 1915, spring returned to the earth, and there was an extremely prosperous scene everywhere. In the snow boundary of Siberia, the green of spring began to shine with the green of spring. Russia's huge state machine also began to start. The lessons of the previous huge losses were learned. This time, Russia did not recruit new troops casually. It was recruited as early as October last year and passed five months of training. This training was not for three days of fishing and two days of drying the net. With the support of the United States and Britain and France, they had enough arms, and even every soldier had fired about 200 bullets.

This is a big and small progress for Russia. You must know that the previous gray animals were enough to be able to fire five bullets. Often, after recruiting soldiers, they were gathered together and taught them to shoot, and they were thrown aside. Some fools were not even a church to shoot, so they were sent to the battlefield.

This is also the fundamental reason for the underground strength of the Russian army. The losses, especially the Battle of Chita, made Russia discover. If it was still the previous point of view, let alone conquering Chita, it might lose the entire Siberia. According to the news obtained by Siberia, the other party expanded Chita City and began to go west. At least when clearing the cities from Chita to Lake Baikal, they were quite radical.

From Chita to Lake Baikal, it is hundreds of kilometers. Including the entire Siberia, it is another million square kilometers of land. Russia understands that this has become stronger and China is also an extremely greedy for land. This is something they absolutely do not accept. Hundreds of attacks, multiplied by the border line on Siberia,

With a 4 million army and enough supplies and supplies, Russia once again marched to the Far East. It took five or six months. The trains that had already been prepared by the geodesic began to concentrate little by little, gathering in Yekaterinburg. At the same time, the Far East was also prepared through wired telegraph contact.

Through Alaska, the United States has struggled to replenish the Far East Military Region in the past five months through Alaska. In the middle, Japan has to be said to be.

He spared no effort to help the Far East Military Region, and even transferred almost one-third of the supplies given to them by the United States to the Far East Military Region. This made the Far East Military Region not only not shrink in the past five months, but instead expanded its military power with the help of increased supplies, with the current total force reaching about 2.7 million.

This is different from the slightly controlled ones in Russia. There are only a few people in the Far East. Not to mention the previous losses, there are almost 8 million soldiers. The 2.7 million soldiers almost wiped out all the adult men aged 13 to 50.

This is not a bad thing,

Once these people are swept away, even if they are just prisoners of war, it will be a great promotion for China's acceptance of Siberia in the future. This is a world of men, nation and stability for men. Resistance is also true. Once only women, children are left, it is easy to assimilate. As long as they are sent to all parts of China and then let them start a family in a few generations, it will be less different from the Chinese.

In the future, Siberia may be the most sparsely populated place in China. However, this is a treasure land. Not to mention the rich animal and plant resources, the value of environmental protection is enough to make people move. The climate in the high cold zone restricts human activities, but protects nature.

The war was about to break out, and Germany has been paying attention to this matter. The 500,000 troops have not yet set off. However, they are already training near southern France. Once the Allies set out from the Apennines, they will definitely block it. The number of people is similar, and they have a certain geographical advantage. They are not ready to achieve great results. They are just defensive wars, and the possibility of a stalemate is almost 90%. As long as you don’t worry about the south, the battle in the north is imperative.

As expected, Russia mobilized a large army to the Far East. Even Germany had a numb scalp. The most important thing is that in the Far East, there were nearly 3 million people, with ten thousand people, not to mention 7 million. It is estimated that China will be under greater pressure.

With 7 million troops missing, Russia, which means more than one million troops, is still widely distributed throughout Europe, especially Türkiye and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Although the powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire showed weakness after the beginning of the European War and could not play its role, Germany knew that it was indispensable. Unlike the war in history, Austro-Hungarian was basically not on the front line, at most it was in the Balkans and Russia. However, through the help of Germany, the industrial power of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was integrated. You must know that the industrial power of the Austro-Hungarian Empire could not be considered weak during World War I. There were really not many countries that could independently produce battleships before World War I. Before, there were only a chaotic management system, and under the name of Germany, it began to integrate. Really, the industrial integration of Austria and Hungary. With the help of Germany, Austro-Hungarian's industrial production power increased by 2.8 times, and therefore, Austro-Hungarian became a very important part of Germany.

In order to conquer Baku, of course, it is impossible to start from the border between Germany and Russia. No matter how many fortifications there are, there are a large number of troops. With the ability of the 3B railway, Germany can easily mobilize troops to Austro-Hungary and then enter the border between Austro-Hungary and Russia. The reasonable number of Russian troops is not only small, the most important thing is that it is almost hundreds of kilometers away from Baku.

In this era when walking basically depends on walking, even some cars have used logistics. Hundreds of kilometers are definitely not a very short distance. If you want to travel, it will take more than ten days without a train. Perhaps the success or failure of the war will be in such a ten days.

Russia is waiting, waiting for the results of the Far East to come. As long as the Far East starts fighting, they will take action immediately. With Russia's strength, it is impossible for Germany to reorganize the fat army.

The Far East has not started fighting. Compared with before, Russia has become much more cautious. The army gathered in Yekaterinburg, continuing to adapt to the environment and waiting for domestic supplies. On the other hand, the Russian army in the Far East has also moved forward cautiously and prepared two large armies to attack. One Chita. Even if the death has been strengthened and expanded, it will not be possible to accommodate so many troops. They must make a good order.

Russia did not take action directly, but China was ready. First of all, it was the Northern Fleet. The Northern Fleet was integrated and finally established during the Chinese New Year in 1915, and part of the original Bohai Fleet and the East China Fleet were placed into the Northern Fleet. Their combat area was divided by Shanghai as the dividing line. The entire north belonged to the Northern Fleet. The main ports were Huludao, Dalian, Lushun, Tianjin and Qingdao. These cities would become one of the ports of the Northern Fleet. Generally speaking, most ships would be anchored in Qingdao. Qingdao also became one of the most important home ports of the Northern Fleet because of its rich shipbuilding foundation.

Opposite to the Northern Fleet, the Southern Fleet is the main ports of Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, and Shantou, Xiamen, Hainan and other places can also be anchored. As for the southern part of Hainan, the entire South China Sea and Southeast Asia are within the scope of the Lanfang Fleet.

The strict distribution has led to the formation of three major fleets. With the entry of one main battleship after another, the strength of the three major fleets skyrocketed like a snowball. Among the three major fleets, the Southern Fleet and the Lan Fang Fleet did not have a sense of urgency to establish. On the contrary, the Northern Fleet was the first to supply and pay the most attention to it because it wanted to participate in the battle against Russia.

The warships were exactly the same as the Sher fleet. Among them, 40% of the soldiers were trained in the Sher fleet, and these people were distributed in any aspect of the entire warship system. As long as a few emergency officers were added, this fleet did not encounter any problems they could not handle in the previous situation. After the warship was launched, it quickly took place.

After sufficient time of construction, and after half a year of training and sea trials, the same specifications as the Sher fleet, but the new fleet, which doubled the heavy patrol and destroyers, has entered the naval sequence. In the competition between the south and the north, the north has gained the upper hand and obtained 6 of the main battleships, with only three in the south. Lan Fang only obtained a part of the heavy patrol. In a short period of time, the tonnage of the northern fleet was expanded several times to 500,000 tons, and accepted most of the students from the Qingdao Naval Academy, forming a huge fleet that guarded the entire Bohai Sea.

All of this, countries that were trapped in the European War, did not discover that a huge fleet of American fleets, which was comparable to the top five countries in the world, was completed in the Far East and quietly entered the sequence of the Chinese Navy.

Conservatively estimated that this fleet is quite powerful, at least not under the Sher fleet, Cheng Biguang became the first commander of the Northern Fleet, with 6 battleships of more than 40,000 tons and more than 25 heavy patrols of 15,000 tons. Even if the heavy patrols focus on air defense, the tonnage is not weak, and the speed and attack power are not weak. (To be continued.)
