Chapter 67 Red Cyclonus (VII)

.More exciting, Muravyov will understand the profound truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.

In order to truly do the defense of Yekaterinburg, in addition to constantly dispatching troops, digging deep holes and storing grain, Muravijov also did something that was very necessary for him to come, that is, to move his temporary office to the train in Yekaterinburg

Muravyov's idea is to timely grasp the development of the previous battle situation through the major railway artery connecting Tyumen and Yekaterinburg, so as to provide correct and timely reference for his work in Yekaterinburg.

Muravyov's idea should be considered to be a reason.

Yekaterinburg, the capital of the Ural region and an important connection point of the Eurasian Continental Bridge. In the past, it was a shocking steel dragon that traveled between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Tsarist Russia. Every day, it was almost whistling from head to foot.

Now, although the scenery of the past is no longer there, the shocking scene is still there in another way.

In recent days, trains scattered from the east also drove by Yekaterinburg every day. But what Muravyov arrived was no longer the scarce supplies loaded on the trains that could make his empire's economy take off, but the carriages filled with terror on their faces. The officials and their families were also busy with their big packages of private goods.

So, Muravyov just needs to use his feet to think about how terrible it would be to lose before.

Of course, Muravyov was also very glad, and fortunately, there were still a series of escape trains coming, that is, at least he could rest here safely for a while

Muravyov regarded the train from the east as a barometer on the battlefield. As long as there are trains that can come from the east, no matter what the train is pulling on, the Ming Taipingtian team is still far away from him.

However, sometimes, there is always a gap between facts and imagination.

When the direction of Tyumen was already in horror, the Taipingtian team was approaching, but their urgent request for help was once again thrown by Muravijov as waste paper and then another train from Tyumen was rushed into the Yekaterinburg train.

Unlike usual, this time the crowds of people carrying on the train have undergone major changes.

Sitting on this train was no longer fleeing Tsarist Russian officials and their relatives and property, but fully armed soldiers of the Red Army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

In the plan formulated in advance by Lin Haifeng and his colleagues, the initial main goal after the war against Tsarist Russia was to take over as much as possible every meter of railway known as the Eurasian continental bridge as possible, so as to provide strong support for future logistics supplies

In order to realize this strategic concept of the Homeland Security Commission, when the military operation against Tsarist Russia began to be truly implemented, Lin Haifeng not only mobilized Zhang Zongyu as commander-in-chief, but also formed the Western Front cluster with the Third Cavalry Army and the Red 31st and Red 32nd Army of the Northwest Military Region, and directly launched a raid on the southern part of Tsarist Russia through the Kazakhstan Republic, attracting the attention of Tsarist Russia, and finally completely tore off the Taiping Heavenly Government's consistent disguise on the so-called "Far Eastern Republic" issue.

On February 13, 1871, when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government opened war against Russia, the Far Eastern Republic officially announced that it had become the Far Eastern special area of ​​the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government.

Therefore, as the highest commander of the Northern Military Region, the main force cluster on the northern front, Shi Xiangzhen easily captured all the legions of the Tsarist Russian Army's eastern group into his big fish as soon as he took action.

Liu Canglin's huge cavalry group, since the beginning of its breakthrough in the border defense against Tsarist Russia, began to roar on the land of Tsarist Russia like a sharp steel knife without curling.

The reason why Muravyov's imagination was seriously wrong was that the so-called China Communications, which was highly relied on by Alexander II and Nicholas, really underestimated the combat potential of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Red Army.

When Muravyov came, Tyumen, as a major border town, could not be considered a golden soup, at least it should be like a rock, and would not be thrown away anyway. It would not be so loose that it would not leave him a situation that would not even be lost.

But unfortunately, in front of Liu Canglin's iron cavalry, Qiu Ming's defense facilities were indeed as loose as a pile of river sand.

What Muravyov did not expect was that, as the deputy commander of the Second Red Cavalry Army, he always led the vanguard to rush forward with his vanguard troops. Before he could only control the Tsukimian chariot, most of the Tsarist Russian defenders in the Tsukimian city were cleared, he found a train for his group of troops and rushed towards Yekaterinburg at lightning speed

Regardless of what happened, Governor Muravyov was extremely lucky

Because when the raids from Renhuaban were still racing towards Yekaterinburg, as usual, they should be on the stage again. Muravyov, who was hoping to welcome another train from the west, was unable to resist the repeated riots of Grickley, the commander of the First Cavalry of the Volga Cossacks, and went to Grickley's army in a lawsuit.

Since I learned that the Taiping Tian ** team had already entered its empire, especially the Tsumi side, Commander Grickley, who was like a mad dog when Muravyov came, kept calling him, shouting that he wanted to run to Tsumi, and using his saber to teach the Taiping Tian people a lesson.

Just yesterday, this unruly Gricklesian was extremely unscrupulous. He even brought his first division of troops unorganized and undisciplinedly from Perm, the former garrison, and camped in the western suburbs of Yekaterinburg without authorization. No matter how hard Muravyov talked about the situation, it would not work. He just wanted to go to Qiuming to fight with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom people in a row.

What a new calf is not afraid of tigers

In fact, Grickley is already nearly fifty years old, but in the eyes of Governor Muravyov, who had been dealing with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for many years, General Grickley, who had never really tried with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, could only be regarded as a calf

So, Governor Mu, who was really annoyed, had no choice but to continue playing with his "drag" technique with Grickley, the madman, today.

Of course, he had to tell Grickley, the madman, that there were some fights you, I hope that when the battle was really started, just don't show it to me.

Alas, this waist protrusion is really annoying. It has been almost three weeks since I was discharged from the hospital, but I still can't sit in front of the computer for a long time to write, so I have to continue to say sorry to my friends.
