Years of the Republic of China 1913

Chapter 3 Bold Hypothesis

Wojczynski's goal is definitely not as simple as he said. What kind of revolution, hard work, struggle and grandiose political ideals are all foolish.Stalin knew exactly what was going on with the victory of the Soviet Eastward Front Army on the battlefield. He never thought that Trotsky would use gas bombs as a "big killer" because of his orders.Stalin's face is indeed thicker than the average person, but he is still a person with face after all. Once this method is spread, it will deal a heavy blow to the image of the Soviet and the Red Army.

Today, the Soviet government has been excluded by all countries in the world and has become a lonely family. However, if Stalin wants to strengthen the Soviet Union and ensure that his rule will not be shaken, he must break down the diplomatic barriers.Therefore, Trotsky's use of poison gas bombs on the battlefield must not be leaked, and it must be strictly kept secret, otherwise all his diplomatic efforts will be in vain.

Don't look at Stalin's superficial praise of Trotsky, and in his political propaganda, he spared no effort to promote the heroic sacrifice of the soldiers of the Eastward Front Army.In fact, when he learned of the real inside story about the capture of Tyumen, Stalin was stunned at first, and then furious. He never expected that Trotsky would use a chicken feather as an arrow, and he would use such a big trick. Roast on the fire.

Stalin, who was gnashing his teeth in anger, had nothing to do with Trotsky for the time being. After all, he was the one who issued the order to capture Tyumen within a time limit. Political propaganda is bad.Therefore, Stalin could only hold his nose temporarily and put the matter on hold. Everyone pretended not to see it. Anyway, it was heard that Trotsky swung the butcher knife in Tyumen in order to keep secrets, killing Denikin's troops and the survivors of Tyumen. Killed them all.As time goes by, this secret may never be known to outsiders. After the limelight passes, it will not be too late to attack Trotsky.

With the destruction of Denikin's Department and the liberation of several major cities in the central region, the balance of power between the Soviet Red Army and the Russian Imperial Government Army has changed. The Soviet Red Army not only ushered in an unprecedented victory after the Battle of Siberia.But also achieved a strategic initiative.

At this time, the forces on both sides have almost returned to the situation before the Battle of Siberia. Stalin believed that under the command of Trotsky, the possibility of completely defeating the reactionary forces was very high. However, at this time, Stalin had to Consider how the Chinese reacted once they attacked the Central Siberian defenses.The so-called paper can't wrap fire, the Chinese government secretly dispatched the so-called "volunteer army" to assist the Russian imperial government's defense line in Central Siberia, and there was even the shadow of the squadron in the failure of the Siberian battle last time.Stalin knew this information a long time ago, but even so, he had nothing to do with the Chinese government.

In order to increase the chance of victory in the next war, Stalin secretly gave Wojchenski a political task that must be completed, that is, to let the Chinese Bolshevik Party carry out revolutionary work in various parts of China as soon as possible, and disrupt the order of China by various means , so that the Chinese government was trapped by various domestic events and could not take into account the Russian civil war, so as to prepare for the upcoming decisive battle.

Stalin didn't care about Chen Shaobai's life or death. What he cared about was how effective the Chinese Bolshevik Party could be.How effective it can be, or how much benefit it can bring to the Soviet.

certainly.It would be even better if Chen Shaobai and the others can successfully subvert the government in China, and even achieve greater results.However, based on Stalin's understanding of the current Chinese government, the occurrence of this situation is almost negligible.However, these current Bolshevik party members, the original revolutionaries, may not have the ability to build a country.But all of them are veterans who are proficient in subversion and terrorist activities, and it is not difficult for them to do this kind of thing.

After Trotsky "liberated" Surgut, he did not "take advantage of the victory and pursue it". The two forces formed a confrontation from Surgut to Central Siberia, and each was secretly preparing for another upcoming war.

After withdrawing the central Siberian defense line, the orthodox government of the Russian Empire couldn't wait to call Baron Peter Nikolaevich Wrangel back to the Far East.Inquire about the failure of the battle in detail.This failure almost poured cold water on the orthodox government of the Russian Empire, which had doubled its confidence before. It not only lost several major cities it had previously occupied, but also led to the destruction of Denikin's entire army. Such a big loss almost made everyone People are pessimistic about the future war situation.

From a practical point of view, the Russian Imperial Government Army did not suffer any losses. Due to the decision of His Excellency the Baron, most of the troops were safely withdrawn.However, due to the demise of Denikin's troops, a strong containment force was lost in central and southern Russia, enabling the opponent to no longer take into account the attacks from the front and back, and to use [-]% of its strength to fight against the Russian Imperial government forces.

In addition, Denikin was a high-level official of the Russian Empire's orthodox government and was also the Minister of War. His death (or disappearance) had a great blow and impact on the entire empire.With the disastrous defeat of the entire battle, the originally high-morale troops lost their spirit and became depressed.Under the pressure of the eager Soviet Red Army, if the Central Siberian defense line cannot be defended, the entire Far East will be naked in front of the opponent like a stripped little girl.

In order to understand the defeat of Denikin, the entire orthodox government of the Russian Empire frantically searched for the truth.But for some reason, I couldn't get any news. It seemed that Denikin's tens of thousands of troops were like paper-stitched people, who were blown by the Red Army and flew away without a trace.

"It's weird...." China, Beijing, State Council, Prime Minister's Office.Fang Zida and several of his capable men held a small meeting, and the main content of the meeting was to discuss their views on the changes in the Russian war situation.Everyone was puzzled by the inexplicable collapse of Denikin's army and the ease with which the Tyumen region fell into the hands of the Soviet Red Army.

"Ziyu, you are a master of military affairs, tell me, if you were Trotsky, would you be able to defeat Denikin?" Yang Du asked Wu Peifu from the side, seeing Fang Zida's frowning expression.

Wu Peifu was also full of doubts.He thought about it carefully and said: "Based on the information we have obtained, if I were Trotsky commanding the troops to attack Tyumen and defeat Denikin, it would not be difficult to take Tyumen, but at least we would have to pay a huge price. After all , the morale of the Red Army is high, but it is far inferior to Denikin's troops in terms of equipment and training. You must know that Denikin's troops were established with the assistance of our National Defense Forces, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined."

"That's true. The General Staff conducted a deduction on the battle of Tyumen. No matter which method is used to take Tyumen, the Red Army will at least have to pay a considerable price. And from the perspective of time, Denny, who had already prepared for defense, General Kim also has enough time to adjust, and it is not difficult to defend Tyumen for a month or more. However, current intelligence shows that the Soviet Red Army that attacked Tyumen did not have a large number of losses. It only suffered partial losses, and General Denikin’s It is a military miracle that the defenders were wiped out and none of them escaped! I think that even General Wu, who is known as the number one military commander in China, will never be able to do it!"

The person who said this was not a Chinese, but a German, and he was Gunter Hans von Kluge, a senior staff member of the Strategic Staff Office of the General Staff.Because of Wu Peifu's appreciation for him, Kluge was specially awarded the rank of colonel of the Chinese National Defense Forces as acting chief of the general staff, and assisted him in the daily work of the strategic staff office.today.Since it was an internal meeting to discuss the Russian Civil War, Fang Zida agreed.Wu Peifu deliberately brought Klug with him.

Kluge is a standard German. He doesn't know how to be euphemistic or reserved when he speaks. He often says one thing and says another, especially in military affairs, and he will not be ambiguous. Instead of being angry, Wu Peifu nodded slightly in agreement.

"What if Trotsky used some tricks? I heard that this man is the founder of the Red Army. He is not only good at politics, but also a good hand at military. Otherwise, Stalin would not have specially invited him He came out of the mountain to serve as the commander of the front army. Although Denikin is capable of fighting, it is possible to be careless for a while. For example, Trotsky used some strange soldiers or tricks. Just like Zhuge Kongming used his troops like a god... "Cao Rulin pondered for a long time and said so, but in the middle of speaking, he saw Wu Peifu looking at him with a mocking smile on his mouth, Cao Rulin blushed immediately, and quickly closed his mouth.

"Foreign Minister Cao! I don't know who the pig brother Kongming you are talking about is, but I can tell you that modern warfare will never completely wipe out an army with advanced weapons and complete The defensive army!" Wu Peifu laughed secretly at Cao Rulin's opinion, Cao Rulin was born as a lip service, and knew nothing about military affairs, these words were just a joke to ordinary people, but to the ears of a professional soldier like him, it was almost like child's play.In order to take care of Cao Rulin's face, Wu Peifu did not open his mouth to refute, but Kluge, who was sitting by the side, pointed out the error of the possibility he said without politeness.Although this approach refuted Cao Rulin's face and called Zhuge Liang a pig brother or something, everyone present knew that Kluge was a German, so they just thought it was funny and didn't reprimand him.

Cao Rulin was extremely embarrassed by Kluge's refutation, and blushed and asked anxiously: "Colonel! Since you think this is impossible, as a professional soldier, can you tell me how Denikin lost? How did it get lost?"

"This..." Klug smiled wryly and shook his head: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Foreign Minister. Our General Staff has also done a lot of deduction to try to find out the answer, but unfortunately they all failed. But... I have a personal opinion, But this……."

Fang Zida put down the cigar in his hand, looked at the hesitant Kluge and said, "Colonel! Bold assumptions and careful argumentation are a way to study science. Although I don't understand military affairs, I think it may be possible to think about problems. This method can be used for reference. Today is an internal meeting, if you have any ideas, just say it, even if there are problems, it’s okay.”

Kluge thought for a while, and finally nodded and said: "Your Excellency, maybe my guess is very terrible, but I think about it and this is the only possibility! That is, the Red Army used weapons that are prohibited in the world, which will cause Denny General Kim's troops were wiped out in a very short time."

"Which weapon are you referring to?" Fang Zida asked sternly.

"Poison gas! It can only be poison gas!" Klug replied. (To be continued..)
