    Nagata Tieshan

    After Nagata Tieshan and the ambassador got off the bus, they also saw Yue Peng, Tang Shaoyi and others who were famous in World War I.

    To be honest, he was completely shocked when the results of the Battle of Rennyvale came out, so he took a train overnight from the British military station to Rennyvale to inspect with his own eyes the tens of thousands of German prisoners of war, the hills of captured materials, and  A Chinese Expeditionary Force soldier who looked tired but exuded spirit and pride in his bones made him increasingly worried about this future opponent. After returning to the station, he and his assistants repeatedly rehearsed the entire battle, but even the most optimistic outcome  He also lost 5 divisions himself, not to mention that this kind of reverse deduction itself has huge problems, because the battle process has always existed, so if we have to re-select the breakthrough point and deploy it, we may lose even more troops.

    He felt that Yue Peng already had all the qualities to become a famous general, so when the two passed by, he looked deeply at him for a few times before walking to the conference room. Yue Peng also silently recited the name. He knew best about Japan's Yang Qiu.  The National Defense Forces and the top brass have never really been reassured that the Sino-Japanese War was nothing more than cutting off Japan's hand in penetrating into the mainland. It is far from a complete defeat, especially since North Korea is still in Japanese hands and Taiwan has not been taken back, not to mention that the Navy has been  These are the things that all the generals of the Republic of China are most worried about/

    After entering the conference room, most of the delegations from various countries have already arrived. Since preparations for this meeting on Russia began long before Tang Shaoyi set off, all countries have been negotiating and waiting for the end of the Russian election, including US Secretary of State Robert Lansing and British Foreign Secretary Arthur Bell.  Allied politicians, including Fu, were in Bordeaux. After the Chinese Expeditionary Force shocked the world with its performance in Renivere, it naturally gained greater recognition. In addition, it not only borders Russia, but also has the largest armed force in Russia, so its position is ranked  Belgium is ahead of the four countries after Britain, France, the United States and Italy, while Japan is immediately behind Belgium. This shows that they are gradually receiving more attention in their attitude towards Russia.

    The Poor Party's backbiting completely angered Britain and France. Even the United States, which had never interfered in Europe, was very angry this time. President Wilson's attitude towards Russia was very clear. In addition to taking the opportunity to increase the influence of the United States, the main reason was that he was worried about the disastrous defeat on the Western Front.  Foch, who had pushed for the dispatch of troops to step down early and felt the pain of it, roared and said that an expeditionary force should be organized immediately to attack Russia from three directions: Murmanx, Vladivostok and Xinjiang Ili. In addition, Foch  Xu also highlighted the Chinese Eastern Front Expeditionary Force currently in Ukraine and the Urals and believed that they should immediately move towards St. Petersburg to nip the Poor Party in the bud before it has a stable foothold.

    Tang Shaoyi didn't expect that the biggest card in his hand would be pulled out for public display at the beginning of the meeting. Only Yue Peng knew that by doing this, Foch was suspected of avenging himself for asking to retreat. Fortunately, they were already prepared, not to mention that they had just discussed it.  Insufficient logistics was used as an excuse, so Gu Weijun was asked to produce detailed information and distribute it to representatives of various countries before he said: As allies, we are willing to assume greater international responsibilities, but our Second Expeditionary Force (external designation of the Eastern Front Expeditionary Force) is still in Ukraine.  The front line to St. Petersburg is thousands of kilometers away. This is the current situation report of our army. Since Lenin launched the coup (October Revolution) in November, our expeditionary force officers and soldiers have never received any supplies. We are short of food and extremely short of ammunition. We have repeatedly sent troops to the Russian Southwest Front.  Calling for help but no news

    In fact, the Second Army's plight was very clear to Britain and France because since the October Revolution, the Second Army had been sending out telegrams for help under Yang Qiu's instructions. Wang Zhengting had repeatedly asked Britain and France to ask for solutions to the Second Army's logistical problems. Tang Shaoyi also took advantage of this.  Raising his voice: Of course, these difficulties are only temporary and we will not forgive them, so we hope to open the Dardanelles Strait as soon as possible to obtain supplies through Sevastopol, but before that, we must ensure the safety of our soldiers,

    Arthur Balfour, who was the British Lord of the Admiralty last year, looked a little embarrassed and secretly scolded Tang Shaoyi for not opening the Dardanelles Strait. The Dardanelles Strait has become a sad place for the British Navy. If it can be easily opened, why do they need the Chinese Expeditionary Force? Britain and France themselves.  We can organize a large army for the Northern Expedition. After listening to Tang Shaoyi's tone, he had the idea of ????retreating the army to the country. He naturally did not want to send back the 100,000 expeditionary force in vain and asked: Your Excellency, Prime Minister, are your country's expeditionary force ready to withdraw to the country?

    of course not

    After Tang Shaoyi made an affirmative sound, he winked at Yue Peng. The latter slowly walked to the big map next to him under the watchful eyes of everyone. His fame is now known to everyone. Nagata Tieshan is always paying attention to his every move. He picked up the pointer and placed it on the map.  We are at Vinnitsa, south of Kiev: Everyone, I just received the battle report from Vinnitsa before setting off. The Caucasus Cavalry Division of the Russian Southwest Front had surrendered five hours ago. The Germans deliberately let go of the defense line, causing the flanks of our Second Army to be completely exposed.  The battle is still going on in the face of German firepower, but according to the preliminary battle report, our army was caught off guard due to the Russian army's betrayal, resulting in very heavy casualties. Our troops are seriously short of ammunition. We have asked for help from the nearby Russian army, but now the German army has launched a full-scale attack on us along the South Bug River.  It is speculated that this should be a comprehensive attack by the German armyWith the current capabilities of the Russian army, it is completely impossible to resist. Once Vinnytsia falls, it will directly threaten the security of Kiev and the entire Ukraine will fall. Therefore, our Second Army has begun to move in the direction of Kiev. Considering that the Poor Party can no longer attack us.  Providing supplies and our troops cannot guarantee the defense of Kiev alone, so they will continue to retreat to the Urals after arriving in Kiev.

    The news brought by Yue Peng made the atmosphere in the conference room even more tense. Even people like Lansing and Belfort who did not know much about military affairs understood how dangerous it was for an army whose flanks were exposed to enemy fire. It had not received supplies for a month.  Under such circumstances, no matter how hard the Chinese Expeditionary Force fights, it will be impossible to stop the German attack. Once the German army breaks through Vinnytsia, the southern gate of Kiev will be completely opened. The fall of Kiev means the fall of Ukraine. Once the German army occupies the entire Ukrainian Great Plains, its strength will be quickly restored.

    Yue Peng took in everyone's expressions one by one and continued: The negotiations between the Poor Party and Germany are imminent. We predict that they are likely to reach an agreement in the near future. Once an agreement is reached, the German army will be able to withdraw at least 80 divisions from the Eastern Front and put them into the Western Front.  Therefore, my suggestion is to prevent Ukraine from falling into the hands of Germany. Please authorize our army to destroy the main industrial facilities in Ukraine during the retreat to prevent them from being used for military purposes by Germany. At the same time, our army will be responsible for cutting off the Ural channel and cutting Russia into two parts.  And our government will train the resistance forces in the Ural region. After we defeat the German army on the Western Front, we will attack Russia together from Central Asia, the Caucasus and other regions.

    By this time, everyone including Foch understood that it was completely impossible for the Chinese Expeditionary Force to intervene in Russia in the short term because they had to first protect themselves from the attack of the German army and the Poor Party, and quickly intervene before they could not open the Dardanelles Strait.  Daydreaming, of course, Britain and France would never give up on nipping the poor party in the bud, so the issue finally shifted from the rapid intervention of the Chinese Expeditionary Force to the more thorough long-term carving up and formation of a resistance army.

    The Caucasus, Baku, Central Asia, Morse Mank, Ukraine and the Crimea, these fated lands, naturally have no chance for other countries to get involved. Not even the United States has any chance. Britain and France immediately evacuated their nationals and people in these areas.  The above-mentioned areas were stuffed into the pockets on the grounds of supporting the opposition. As for the Ural Mountains, even if other countries want to get involved, they must first convince China, which has nearly 100,000 troops stationed after withdrawing from Ukraine. When allocating it to the most critical Far East region, Nagata Tetsuzan  stood up suddenly

    Russia's betrayal and the coup of the Poor Party were a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Japan to get closer to the Entente, especially to deepen the relationship between Japan and Britain. Nagata Tetsuzan knew that if Japan did not take action at this time, it would be completely reduced to a vassal, so he did not even discuss it with the country.  Said: Dear friends, the Empire of Japan is willing to assume the responsibility of attacking the Russian poor party in the Far East. Our country is ready to send troops and hopes to obtain Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, North Huatai Island (Sakhalin), Kamchatka Island, and Okho  Concession rights within 200 kilometers of the Ci Kehai coast,

    Before Nagata Tieshan finished speaking, Wang Zhengting suddenly stood up and glared at each other: Our government cannot accept the Japanese government's decision to send troops to Vladivostok, Khabarovsk and the Sea of ??Okhotsk coast. If this is the case, our country will not be able to guarantee the safety of the Ural region.  Safety

    Even though everyone knows that Japan's actions will inevitably trigger China's opposition, Britain and France are actually willing to see this kind of conflict. After all, an increasingly powerful China is not entirely in their interests, so it is necessary to appropriately indulge Japan and contain China, but they did not expect to trigger such a strong response.  Protested, so the expressions of Bilian and Belfort changed slightly, while Lansing and Pershing, who had been silent, also frowned and stayed at Sakhalin and Kamchatka Islands, not knowing what they were thinking.

    Yue Peng frowned because Wang Zhengting's words did not mention Sakhalin, Kamchatka or even the Sea of ??Okhotsk. Even if it was given to the Republic of China, it would not be able to protect it. But Sakhalin was different. It was a land lost by the former Qing Dynasty. Who didn't?  He hoped to regain his homeland, but just when he was about to remind Wang Zhengting, Yang Du suddenly stopped him: Don't mention Sakhalin.

    Why was Yue Peng staring at Yang Du in surprise and asking

    Yang Du was not afraid of his eyes and narrowed his eyes. He pointed at the displeased Lansing and Pershing and said with a smile: North Sakhalin has discovered 100 million tons of oil (predicted in 1905).
