You can search for the latest chapters in Baidu for "Super Emperors Search Novels of the Late Qing Dynasty (www.soxscc.com)"!With the declaration of war between the two countries, Zuo Baobao’s Third Army quickly moved towards the north. With the addition of the three divisions composed of the Mongolian ministries, a total of 200,000 people are responsible for defending the north of Xinjiang and Mongolia, which is thousands of kilometers away The border line of China is mainly defensive.

The attack on the Western Regions and Mongolian Maozi must be dominated by cavalry, but the Mongolian cavalry is impossible to lose to the Cossacks in terms of cavalry and courage. You must know that their ancestors went directly to the Ural Mountains and raged in Eastern Europe.

After updating their equipment and systematic training, plus the existence of the Third Army, Zuo Zongtang didn't worry about the situation in the west at all. What he cared about was whether he could take the sea cucumber Tibetan before Mao Zi's reinforcements.

In fact, Zuo Zongtang's worries have gone too far.

Maoqiu’s war potential is huge. If a desperate battle can mobilize at least two million armies in a year, but as a semi-serfdom country, their response is also relatively slow, and it takes a lot to travel around and gather together. time.

In particular, the Siberian Railway was built for less than a thousand kilometers. These troops can only be transported to Irkutsk, and then they have to walk. This is thousands of kilometers of grassland and wasteland.

If it is a regular army, the speed is not too slow, but the farmers who gather are not so high-quality.

This means that it will take more than half a year for the Maoqiu Army to send a large-scale army to the Far East.Although the Cossack cavalry support is fast, it is not very useful in the city defense war. After all, the sea cucumber hiding here is not a grassland.

Compared with the optimistic situation on the Western Front.

The Eastern Front was relatively difficult. The Qing Dynasty invested three A divisions and three B divisions, a total of 150,000 people participated in the attack.

After easily taking the city of Kraskin, this line of troops turned to the north, and went straight to the northern town of Boli (Khabarovsk).

If the battle in Shuangchengzi, Boli, and Sea Cucumber goes well, it is not impossible to turn to Chita to the west. Once Chita is taken, the homeland of more than one million square kilometers will be restored.

It is not to say that winning the sea cucumber is the ultimate goal, this is the most basic goal...

The 200,000 Maozi deployed in the Far East, the main defensive areas, also Chita, Sea Cucumber Tibet, and Boli, especially the Sea Cucumber Tibet, have been operated like iron barrels.

Just like Shuangchengzi is the western outpost of the sea cucumber Tibetan, after taking this place, a considerable part of the troops will be deployed to grieve Boli or west to prevent Maozi from coming in from Chita.

Why didn’t the Qing Dynasty take all the sea cucumbers first? The main reason is that this is a fortress, which cannot be taken in a day or two. The army must clear the ground while waiting for the domestic heavy artillery, small-caliber artillery and mortars. The effect is not good, while waiting for the support of the navy.

Qing Command

"When can the army's heavy artillery over 120mm arrive?"

Zuo Zongtang asked the staff member.

For the navy, the 120MM and 155 guns can only be said to be an auxiliary gun. They can't even penetrate the armor of the ZTE iron-clad ships. They can only be used as rapid-fire guns against light cruisers or even as incendiary bombs to cause damage to enemy ship personnel and superstructures.

For the current army, it is already a real heavy artillery. When the car is not popular, this kind of huge and heavy thing is really difficult to move. Even the heavy artillery is lighter than many powers, but the largest army is currently The gun is only 180MM.Fifth Novel www.d5xs.net

"Marshal! Trullo has limited supply of troops and light weapons. Heavy artillery over 120mm is more troublesome to load and unload. It will take a week to arrive."

Wang Shizhen stood up and said.

In five years, the railway had already smelled the black province and the second disease. After getting off the train, it had to be transported, so a week was already fast.

"En! Then we will attack the Twin Cities first and send a telegram to Zuo Baobao and ask him how he moved the herdsmen from northern Mongolia to the south. The Cossack cavalry should be here soon."

Zuo Zongtang nodded. Since the heavy artillery will not be there for a while, he will take down the Twin Cities first. As for the attack on Boli and Sea Cucumber Zang at the same time, we still need to focus on the key points. You need to try Maozi's combat power first.

In the early morning of the second day, the headquarters was brightly lit, and Zuo Zongtang had already gotten up. Although the victory in the attack on Shuangchengzi was in his hands, with Zuo Zongtang's ubiquitous caution, he needed to control and occupy at all times.

Shuangchengzi Maoqiu people called Nicoliskoye and later called Ussuriysk. Although the population is small, only 100,000 people, they use agricultural and livestock products such as oil extraction, sugar, flour, meat processing, and leather boots. Mainly processing industry.It is an important source of Maozi's economy in the Far East. The Maoqiu Army is stationed here with 10,000 people, and it belongs to the territory.Mao Qiu annexed him in accordance with the "Daqing Maoqiu Yanjing Treaty".

After taking this place, Maozi carried out a brutal massacre in order to control the human population, and then moved their citizens over.

"Reporting commander! The ministries have arrived at the designated positions, requesting an attack!"

When Zuo Zongtang looked at the map in thought, a staff officer walked in and said.

"It's 6:37, and the total offensive is launched at 7:15! Be sure to fight!"

Zuo Zongtang glanced at the pocket watch and said.

"Yes! Handsome!"

The staff officer turned around and ran out.

Front line

The artillerymen are busy, a door of artillery is ready, need to wait for an offensive instruction.

Although there are only 105 cannons, 120 cannons and 75 cannons here, there are also as many as 500 cannons. Even if those 155 cannons and 180 cannons arrive, they cannot be used to deal with such a small city.

After all, Sea Cucumber Tibet is a military fortress. Mao Qiu has been in business for a long time. There are countless bunkers above. The 155 guns and 180 guns are the main offensive force.

In the direction of Boli, Nie Shicheng's first division and the 11th division where Ma Yukun is located will also launch a tentative attack on Boli.After the war in the Northeast, Nie Shicheng will enter the staff, and Ma Yukun will step up to his seat and serve as the acting commander of the First Army.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The pointer of the watch points to 7:15, and the artillery positions begin to roar with the commander's order...
