    Without Wang Geng's nod, Lao Duan would not make any decisions at all. On the contrary, Wang Geng did not care much about China's internal affairs, but the world was at war. In terms of the military and diplomatic aspects of the Sino-Japanese alliance, Wang Geng, the uncrowned king of Asia, did his part.  There is no such thing as a dictator.

    Due to the establishment of the Sino-Japanese alliance, after the Japanese army generals on the front line saw the new infantry weapons of the Chinese participating armies, they complained privately to the Japanese army and the cabinet. Since the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle, Browning squadron  Machine guns and heavy machine guns, including 60mm caliber platoon mortars and 81mm caliber battalion mortars, have been gradually equipped with Japanese divisions on the front line under the unified deployment of the coalition headquarters. So what reason is there not to use rifles?  Also replace it with m1903 Springfield?

    In that case, at least the imperial soldiers only need to carry 7.62 caliber .30 rifle ammunition, which can meet the ammunition needs of the m1903 Springfield rifle, m1 Garand semi-automatic rifle, Browning squad machine gun and heavy machine gun at the same time. Then 6.5  The caliber 38 rifles and bullets are only for use by old Russian peasants, and are completely useless to the Imperial Army!

    "Your Excellency Utsunomiya, the Ukrainian Campaign and the Southern Campaign are imminent. I have already said the importance before. Time is of the essence, but you can rest assured. The troops of the Southwest Front and the Southern Front will, after completing the tasks of the Ukrainian Campaign and the Southern Campaign,  , will also be reorganized and expanded as soon as possible!" Wang Geng comforted Utsunomiya Taro.

    Wu Peifu raised his eyebrows and said, "Commander-in-Chief, our domestic ordnance production capacity is insufficient. I also read the draft expansion plan of the Central Front Army this morning. At least four mechanized infantry group armies and two armored group armies will be established. Domestic capabilities  Can we produce so many tanks and armored vehicles in time? What about the fuel supply? If the enemies in the future are on the same level as the Soviet Red Army in the Battle of Ufa, we will completely destroy them with machine guns and artillery!"

    "Wu Peifu, you underestimate the German and Austrian troops. The equipment level of the Soviet Red Army is worse than that of Tsarist Russia's Second Army four years ago. Even the combat effectiveness of the infantry division composed of the German reserve corps is worse than that of the Soviet Union in the Battle of Ufa.  The Red Army is strong. You must know that the main force of the Southern Front in the Soviet Red Army was driven out of Ukraine and retreated to Tsaritsyn. However, Germany dispatched in Ukraine to help the Ukrainian autonomous government drive away the Soviet Red Army.  It¡¯s just a division composed of reserve troops!¡±

    Wang Geng¡¯s tone was a bit serious and his face was serious, which made Wu Peifu obediently shut his mouth, thinking, are the German reserve troops that powerful?  It's a pity that I am not going to fight in the Ukraine War, otherwise, I really want to experience it.

    "Everyone, although we won the Battle of Ufa, the intensity of the Battle of Ufa may be the most lightweight compared to the battles we will encounter in the future. The battles between the Allied Powers and Germany and Austria on the Western Front  Later, we were mainly immersed in the quagmire of trench warfare, and the artillery preparations before each battle sometimes even lasted four to six hours, and most of them were large-caliber heavy howitzers, not 75mm mountain guns. "

    "How many artillery shells did we fire in the Battle of Ufa? According to the base number of artillery shells we are currently equipped with, if we fire across the board, all our artillery will be out of shells in half an hour. And in the battle between Germany and Austria and Britain and France on the Western Front, both sides  Almost any artillery preparation lasts for more than 2 hours, and they are all heavy artillery. A 150-caliber howitzer explodes in an open field and can knock over half the people on the football field. If it lands on an infantry company without cover,  , this company can be abolished. Do you dare to underestimate the combat effectiveness of the German and Austrian ground forces? "

    Taro Utsunomiya was a veteran who participated in the Russo-Japanese War. Of course he knew the power of heavy artillery. In fact, Wu Peifu, as an excellent general who was the commander of the artillery regiment, did not know the power of heavy artillery. It was just that both the Chinese corps and the Japanese army had not known the power of heavy artillery for a long time.  They did not encounter a heavyweight combat opponent, and the equipment and combat level of the Soviet Red Army in the Battle of Ufa were almost as good as those of Japan's Ashigaru and peasant soldiers during the Warring States Period. Therefore, these two talents were somewhat arrogant and underestimated the enemy.

    "Furthermore, our coalition forces did not withstand the test of offensive warfare and trench warfare in the Battle of Ufa. In the future confrontation with Germany and Austria, trench warfare is the opponent's specialty. We will never gain the upper hand against the opponent in trench warfare. This  This is also the reason why the Central Front Army is preparing to organize and equip a large number of mechanized troops.

    The concentrated use of tanks is the best way to deal with trench warfare, and the insertion, detour, and outflanking of mechanized armored forces will become an important combat method for us to deal with the German and Austrian forces in the later stages of the Ukrainian campaign!  "Wang Geng waved his fist and said.

    "That's why we urgently need to launch a southern campaign to get Azerbaijan's Baku Oilfield in our hands?" Wu Peifu couldn't help but asked after hearing this.

    "Yes! 90% of Russia's oil production areas are concentrated in the Baku area on the Caspian Sea, where oil fields and refineries are scatteredThe chessboard is huge in scale and is a fuel base for our coalition forces and the Volga Federation. It is bound to be won. Wu Peifu, your Southern Front's combat plan must be prepared in advance and reported to the coalition headquarters. I want to see it personally!  No room for error!  Whether the coalition's mechanized operations can be realized depends on when you can get Baku and Azerbaijan to me. Otherwise, it is a long way to transport oil from China, and the coal burned by the train will be more expensive than the oil!  "

    "As for the Southwest Front and the Ukrainian campaign, Your Excellency Utsunomiya, I called you here. In addition to telling you the expansion plan of the Central Front, I also want to remind you again that the goal of the Ukrainian campaign is not to occupy the land of Ukraine. Of course, Ukraine  As the breadbasket of Europe, we must take them all down sooner or later.¡±

    "I understand, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, the purpose of launching the Ukrainian campaign is to bring the main German and Austrian forces back from the Western Front. Don't worry, I will lead the Southwest Front to fight this battle successfully. Kiev, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetro  There won't be any Fusk missing, take them all down!" Utsunomiya Taro said confidently.

    "Your Excellency Utsunomiya, Ukraine is the battlefield I have chosen to confront the main German and Austrian forces. Therefore, you have to hit the opponent painfully, but you cannot push the opponent back. As long as the main German and Austrian forces dare to come to the Eastern Front, we will arrive  At that time, encircle and annihilate them north and east of the Dnieper River. At this time, the mechanized and armored forces of the Central Front as the strategic reserve can play a decisive role! "

    The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces chewed the cigar in his mouth, and the scene of encircling and annihilating the main German and Austrian east-reinforcement troops in the Battle of Kiev seemed to appear before his eyes!

    In this way, in late July 1918, watching the territory of Kolchak's All-Russian Provisional Government getting smaller and smaller, it first formally ceded Western Siberia east of the Ural Mountains to the Sino-Japanese Alliance. Of course, in order to recognize Western Siberia  In exchange for the form of self-government, the Allied forces marched west of the Ural Mountains to block the Soviet Red Army heading east to Ufa.
