Chapter 1192 Is it the land of the king in the world (second update, please subscribe)
After the offensive was thwarted, the Russians repeated their tricks again-artillery coverage!
Li Jie and the soldiers could only crawl back to the trenches and bunkers to hide.When the artillery fire was fierce, the ground below was constantly shaking under the fierce artillery fire. The soldiers who were exposed to the artillery fire were dizzy from the shock wave of the explosion. They could not hear anything in the position, and the shells splashed. The gravel and dust flew up and down, hitting the soldiers heavily, but soon they didn't feel the pain, their bodies and trenches were almost covered by the debris.

"Machine gun, machine gun..."

Liang Laoliu still remembered the machine gun in his heart. If there was no machine gun, their defense line would have been breached long ago.The machine gun position happened to be hit by an enemy shell and hit the bunker.

"machine gun……"

Even though Liang Laoliu was also thrown forward by the shock, and the rifle in his hand was dropped by the shock, he still ran towards the machine gun bunker desperately.

In the half-collapsed bunker, the wounded were moaning.

After this round of shelling was over, when the comrades helped each other to climb out of the damaged bunker fortifications, the big guys all looked ashamed, and even many soldiers had blood on the corners of their mouths.

"Machine gun, quickly check the condition of the machine gun..."

Under the call of Liang Laoliu, the machine gunner hurriedly found his machine gun, pulled it out from the broken soil, and saw that the tripod of the machine gun was broken on one side.

"It's okay, it can still be used with a wooden board."

"The gauge is fine..."

While they were checking their weapons, suddenly, a few drops of water fell from the sky.

"It's raining!"

All of a sudden, the rain fell without warning, and the bean-sized raindrops instantly covered the entire battlefield. The unpredictable weather in spring was revealed at this time. land.

In the mud, the Russian army launched an offensive again.

……

February 2th, Daming, Zhongdu, Imperial Palace.

"Since the war has already started, the military advisory group and the intelligence network should stay there to assist the Shi army in fighting. This is my idea. What do you guys think?"

Zhu Dadi, who has just turned 48 years old, although he seems to be five years old, his body is still extremely strong. This is reflected in many aspects. For example, he can still easily run ten kilometers every day, and he can still fight against little goblins , and still a group.

Of course, for Emperor Zhu, fighting the little goblins is just an occasional thing. As the emperor of the empire, in the past 24 years, he has never slack off.

Just like now, after learning about the changes that took place in Central Asia, he immediately summoned his ministers, and he stared at his ministers majestically.

Prime Minister Qian Degong spoke first respectfully:

"What Your Majesty said is very true. It's not that the Shi army has no chance of winning. Russia is also going on an expedition. As long as the Shi family can consume the strength of the invaders to the maximum, I think it is possible to force the Russians to make concessions through diplomatic negotiations."

"But in any case, we should strengthen our assistance to them. Only through large-scale assistance can the Russians understand our attitude. If necessary, I think that the African Army can be recruited to enter as volunteers. In a word If the empire does not want the Russians to get involved in the Western Regions, it must decisively cut off their ambitions the moment they stretch out their hands."

Zhao Shiji, Shangshu of the Ministry of Army, suggested.

"Zhao Qing's family is right, so let's do it. The African Army is the samurai sword of the empire. It's time for the Russians to taste this samurai sword!"

Emperor Zhu obviously did not intend to ask other people for their opinions.

Although in the past ten years, he has handed over a lot of power to the cabinet, but this does not affect the authority of his will. On the contrary, after so many years of ups and downs, the dependence and loyalty of the imperial civil servants to the imperial power It is unprecedented in all dynasties.

The center of the empire is completely different from previous dynasties. It is neither tamed as a slave to the imperial power like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, nor is it dominated by a single family like the Ming Dynasty.It borrowed heavily from the systems of the East and the West, and fused the two together to form the backbone of the empire.

"How about Afghanistan? Will the British agree to our transportation of supplies there?" Emperor Zhu asked a new question.

Zhuge Jun, minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hurriedly responded:
"Your Majesty, the British side has always been very happy to see us conflicting with Russia because of Ningyuan. Naturally, we don't mind our aid to Ningyuan in Afghanistan. Fang is quite wary of it because of comprehensive education.

But this is not a problem. After all, Britain is responsible for the diplomacy of Afghanistan. Since the British and Indian authorities have agreed, the weapons we aid can of course be transported to Ningyuan through Afghanistan. The biggest problem is that the local transportation conditions are extremely primitive, especially in the mountains. Whether the tribe obeyed the order of Kabul is still questionable. After all, the local mountain tribe has maintained a semi-independent state for hundreds of years, and most of them make a living by robbery. If they attack our transport convoy, not only will it cause casualties, but most importantly The most important thing is that the weapons cannot be delivered, whether it will affect the frontline warfare, and even cause the Russians to misjudge..."

Ok……

Zhao Shiji's reminder made Emperor Zhu fall into contemplation. The tribes in Afghanistan... This is an old problem, let alone now, just over 100 years later, the mountain tribes in Afghanistan are still his heart disease. Those places are generally relatively feudal and backward. The identity of religion and tribe is far greater than that of the country, and many people do not identify with the so-called country at all.

In the eyes of those tribes who disobeyed the orders of Kabul, what is the convoy transporting weapons?It's just a piece of fat, so why don't they grab it!
Being robbed of supplies is secondary, and then what will happen?

The empire will definitely not suffer from being dumb. It will definitely send troops to escort and retaliate against the tribes that attacked the convoy. This will further worsen the local situation, and then?

The Russians will definitely make a misjudgment-thinking that the empire is unable to assist Ningyuan, which will only fuel their ambitions.

Even now, the reason why the Russians take military risks is based on a misjudgment-the empire will not clash with Russia for the sake of Ningyuan.

Da Maozi always does things like this, working with wishful thinking and reckless vigor, this polar bear will never give up unless he gets a bump on his head.

The interests of the so-called allies... Da Maozi has always only had interests in his eyes, but no allies!

With a cold smile, Emperor Zhu said.

"Afghanistan can't, let's go from the air! Airlift! What are our airships for? The Russians think that it is deep inland and beyond our reach. Then, we will use the airship to tell them-times have changed! The determination of the empire and the The will will never be transferred by distance! Let them know what is under the sky, is it the king's land!"

The reason why the response was so strong was that Emperor Zhu knew very well that if the Russians were not cut off, their greedy eyes would turn to the east.

Haokand, however, is just the beginning. When they complete the annexation of these three countries, their eyes may not necessarily be Persia.Most likely the Western Regions.

By that time, Da Ming will really be with them forever.

So whether it's for the friendship between allies, or to tie the Russians to the imperial chariot, they must be stopped!
