The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

spnps:

The first update!I didn't sleep well yesterday, so I went to catch up on sleep at noon. . . .

The convoy traveled all the way to the northwest. After four days of driving, the convoy finally arrived at Mias, a small city in the Ural Mountains, where the convoy started trading.

Sure enough, as the military department said, there are a lot of furs, gold, and gems here, and there is a shortage of daily necessities. As soon as the convoy arrives, the local Russian people will come to exchange those precious things.

Those things are not very valuable in the eyes of the Russian people, and they are far inferior to useful things. [

When the caravan returned, it was full of various furs, along with some gold and gems.

Since the first convoy successfully entered Russia for trade, Chinese convoys have frequently entered Russia for trade, and the Russians even set up a special entry point.

It's just that the Russian customs officers are too stupid, and the Chinese convoy can skip the inspection as long as they put in a little money, and at the same time, they only need to pay a little customs duty, which is like a fake.

Even the Russian leader who was in charge of this checkpoint was bought by China. The Chinese convoy brought two beautiful Russian beauties from Russia to the leader, and at the same time sent a lot of luxury goods, which made the leader intoxicated all day long. It's hard to extricate yourself from tenderness and enjoyment.

The convoys entering Russia are no longer only aimed at the market in the Ural Mountains. Some convoys are dedicated to selling Chinese luxury goods to Russia. These are things enjoyed by the Russian nobles.

As Europe fell into war, and Russia's industrial production declined due to the war, the imports enjoyed by the Russian aristocracy were cut off from the source.

China just filled the gap.

As the war continued, the scale of production in Russia declined, and the living supplies of the Russian people were also insufficient.

Soon the trade between China and Russia formed a market on the Sino-Russian border. Russian businessmen took the initiative to transport the goods needed by China to the border after seeing business opportunities, and then exchanged Chinese goods.

Although the profit is lower, it saves time and makes the trade volume start to rise.

There are also many human traffickers on the Sino-Russian border.Some sold Russian girls to China, and some sent Russian technicians and scientific researchers to the border.

For China, which lacks technicians, those Russian technicians can have a higher income after coming to China, which is not a small temptation for Russian technicians.

Many Russian technicians are currently unable to meet the supply of living materials, so they naturally yearn for life in China.

And those scientific researchers were also attracted because of China's high treatment for scientific researchers, and many Russian scientific researchers also ran to the border to break the latest chapter of Yecheng.

Those Russian businessmen who introduce technicians and scientific researchers can get a reward, especially if they can fool a scientific researcher to China, the profit is much higher than selling those Russian girls.

"Now is not the peak period of population flow. When Russia is deeply involved in the war. At that time, there will be more and more Russian workers who can't eat, and more Russian workers and scientific researchers who are willing to come to China. But if When the Russian Revolution broke out, the time could only be described as fleeing. It seems that we need to open up an area in the northwest to attract Russian nobles." Jiang Yu looked at the trade records for a month and noticed the problem of population flow.

We must know that in history, after the outbreak of the Russian Revolution, 10,000+ Russian soldiers ran to the Northeast and were then incorporated by the Northeast Army.Later died in the Chinese Civil War.

Attract the Russian nobles to China, that will bring wealth to China.

When that wealth is brought into China, it basically belongs to China, because Russian nobles also need to spend money to come to China. [

Many will also take root in China.

In 15, the Western Front in Europe fell into a stalemate. Britain and France launched two attacks, but both were repelled by the German army.The main force of the German army has been transferred to the Eastern Front.The German army gathered 18 divisions and more than 2000 artillery pieces. Using Germany's dense railway network, they quickly sent troops to the Eastern Front to fight against the Russian army.

Germany divided its forces to attack the Russian army in two ways.And plans to force the Russian army into the "Polish pocket" to annihilate.The two sides fought for more than 8 months. The German army captured Przemysl, Lemburg, Ivangorod, Warsaw, Brest, Wilno and Riga, and forced the Russian army to retreat from the Gulf of Riga to Denez On the front line of the Tehe River, the Russian army lost a total of more than 170 million people.Although the German army won a great victory, its own losses were also huge.Moreover, the main force of the Russian army was not eliminated, and as a result, Russia could not be forced to surrender.

But invaded Germany in Russia.It also caused a large number of homeless refugees in Russia, who could only wander in Russia.

Many wandering Russians heard that it was easy to get a bite of food in China, so they flocked to China.

In order to be able to sit in a Chinese trade convoy, all they need is a full meal.

So many Russians went to Northwest China in Chinese convoys and joined the large-scale construction of Northwest China. They were all good coolies.

At this time, due to the continuous influx of Russians, there was a trend of marrying Russian concubines in China, which is not prohibited by law.

Russia's social wealth is being seized by China along with trade, and Russia's labor force and intellectuals have also begun to be continuously acquired by China.

The railway line is constantly conducting military material transactions with Russia, and Russian gold is constantly pouring into China.

At this time, Britain and the United States had problems on the battlefield again.

Something went wrong with the artillery!

First of all, there are not enough guns. France has only 500 million guns in stock. How can it withstand the blow?

During the Russo-Japanese War, the Russian army consumed an average of 25 rounds of artillery per month, but during the Balkan War, the Bulgarian army consumed an average of [-] rounds of ammunition per month.

The times are advancing, and the consumption of artillery in wars is increasing.

This was reported by French military observers, but France refused to believe this fact on the grounds that the Balkans were a barbarian war.

According to the original calculation method, the 500 rounds of French guns can be used for four years.

As a result, as soon as the shooting started, the average monthly consumption of cannons surged to 90 rounds, and this figure was still rising. 500 million rounds could not last even half a year.

In contrast, the situation of France's ally, Britain, is not much better, and its artillery reserves are even lower than that of France.

But the problem of lack of medicine can not be simply solved by simply making guns. First of all, due to the blockade of German u-boats, the UK simply does not have enough copper to make shells.

Secondly.Britain's original metal linear processing technology was relatively backward. Even if there was enough copper, Britain did not have enough workers and machines to produce it.

Thirdly, British chemical technology lags far behind that of Germany, so not only is it impossible to mass-produce new gunpowder, but more importantly: the gun barrel is refilled with oil, and Britain can’t produce products that meet the quality requirements; there is a lack of new gunpowder As a result, the British army had enough ammunition but could not produce enough fuzes; as a result of the lack of re-feeding oil, although the British army dared to build a large number of artillery, they all quickly became yellow equipment that was out of use and waiting for materials. [

So Britain and France had to spread orders abroad.As many guns as the United States and China can produce, Britain and France need as many guns.

In terms of artillery technology, China has actually been at the forefront of the world, even ahead of Germany.Germany still had many problems with artillery as well.

For example, Germany's high-explosives cannot add fragments at present, and can only shock and kill the enemy.China has successfully added fragments to the cannon, and the performance of the cannon is relatively stable.

Of course, at this time China received the gun order.Many are orders for durian.

This made Jiang Yu a little dumbfounded. Are Britain and France all fools?Still using the grenade to this day!What an astonishingly bizarre phenomenon!

The performance of shrapnel made in Britain and France is not stable enough, sometimes it is difficult to calculate its explosion height, so as to maximize the effect of shrapnel.

It doesn't matter anymore, what matters is!How does the grenade destroy the fortifications?

Shrapnel relies on hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of steel balls and other fragments to kill infantry after exploding in mid-air.Not at all useful for fortifications.

But at this time, Britain and France have nothing to do. First of all, their artillery is very biased.

The artillery equipped by France is all 75mm rapid-fire guns, and they refuse to equip large-caliber howitzers.As a result, this kind of artillery had no effect on the German troops in the fortifications at all.

France bet all its bets on rapid-fire guns before the war, but now it is dumbfounded.

Even when the rapid-fire gun retreated to the back of the trench, the French artillery also discovered that although the range of the 75mm rapid-fire gun reached 9000 meters, it was limited to direct fire within a range of 4,500 meters because of the guidelines.Therefore, when they entered the shooting position behind the trench, they found that the scale division on the sight was only 6,000 meters away.What is even more exaggerated is that France does not produce charges for high-angle shooting at all.

Many of the French 75mm rapid-fire guns have become the same as decorations.

British light artillery also accounted for the majority. At this time, due to the lack of ability to control the combustion and implosion of gunpowder, most of the high-explosive heads in World War I could not produce enough fragments. That is to say, the high-explosive heads at that time could only use The shock wave kills the enemy, but the fragments cannot be used to kill the enemy. This makes the light rapid-fire artillery method, which accounts for more than half of the artillery of the Allies, produce a shock wave with sufficient lethality.

The first to solve this problem is China, and the second is Germany.This technology was bought by the Germans not long ago, and Germany also bought surveying and mapping technology.

European artillery these days are accustomed to direct aiming and shooting, but are very unskilled in indirect shooting, and there are no accurate maps for them to refer to.

The Chinese artillery solved this problem in the war against Russia and the war against Japan. Most of the Chinese artillery provided indirect fire support to the infantry.

Of course, the large European artillery of these years does not know how to support infantry combat. This is indeed the case, even in Germany.

This is mainly because the artillery thinking of this era is immature.

Europeans, especially Britain and France, where the number of guns increased in the later stages of the war and the number of large-caliber artillery continued to increase.

Their thinking is that the longer the bombardment lasts until the enemy's fortifications are destroyed, the more beneficial it is for the infantry to attack!

So artillery preparations increased from the original ten minutes to half an hour, one hour, three hours, one day, three days, or even a week!

This kind of thinking is simply wrong to grandma's house.

It turned out that such blows were not at all effective against the German troops forming fortifications.

First of all, the suddenness of the infantry attack was lost. At the same time, the German army had underground fortifications. Even Germany did not hide in the underground fortifications at all, but directly hid in the pits in front, allowing British and French artillery to bomb the empty fortifications.

In contrast, the Chinese artillery has already had a clear operational ideological guidance. The task of the artillery is not to destroy, but to neutralize!

That is to give priority to destroying the enemy's barbed wire, secondly to attack the enemy's fortifications, and thirdly to harass and attack the enemy's artillery, while preventing the enemy's reserve team from entering the position and attacking the enemy's exposed firepower points.

Regardless of whether it is light or heavy artillery, the primary task is to support infantry operations, not to destroy anything.

European artillery does not have such an idea, and even Germany only partially agrees with it.

"Britain and France are short of guns right now, and they are just trying to rip off." Thinking of this, Jiang Yu immediately called for the British ambassador Zhu Erdian on the grounds that he wanted to drink tea with him.

So Zhu Erdian arrived in Huai'an in a truck, and had a 'drink tea' with Jiang Yu.

In Jiang Yu's Marshal's Mansion, the two were sitting in an elegant tea house. Jiang Yu and Zhu Erdian pulled up Chang's house and asked with a smile, "My old friend, is everything okay recently?"

"Not bad, but..." Zhu Erdian said with a sigh, "The development of the war has been unexpected."

"This is indeed very regrettable." Jiang Yu rubbed his head, and then said: "I heard that Germany has transferred its troops to the Eastern Front to deal with the Russians. Maybe Russia will surrender soon."

"Hehe! I don't know where you heard the news, but it is absolutely impossible. The Germans were dragged by our Allied Powers on the Western Front with a lot of troops. How could they defeat Russia in a short time?" Zhu Erdian couldn't help laughing, Jiang Yu also laughed.

Then suddenly asked: "What if China joins the war?"

"Huh?" Zhu Erdian's smile suddenly froze, and Jiang Yu stood up, pointing to the Xinjiang area on the map hanging on the wall and said: "If China invades Russia from here, it seems that Russia is now struggling to deal with Germany. As far as the situation is concerned, we China can occupy all of this area without much effort, and can even easily go to the coast of the Black Sea. Or, we can turn the direction of attack to the south."

Jiang Yu said and pointed to Afghanistan and Iran, and then patted his forehead, "Oh! God! It seems that they are very close to India."

Zhu Erdian opened his mouth and looked at the map in shock.

If China really joins the war and stabs Russia in the back, the result will be more terrifying.At this time, no one doubted China's war capabilities anymore. With the strength of the Chinese Air Force and the army that could easily defeat Japan, stabbing the Russians in the back was very simple.

And it turns out that Russia can't beat China.

Russia was defeated by the disadvantaged China during the Sino-Russian-Mongol War in the past. At this time, the Chinese Army is no longer the army that was put together by the coalition forces of various provinces.

China now has a unified army organization and command.

How can Russia be China's opponent!
