Chapter Five Hundred and Sixtieth Four Sides Russian Songs
Wu Peifu can be called the most fierce and knowledgeable among the Beiyang generals. Moreover, Wu Peifu is rigorous in running the army, and his troops are fully trained and well-equipped. He is the ace among Beiyang's aces.
In this troubled world, everyone has great ambitions, and Wu Peifu also wants to rely on a strong army to dominate the world. In Wu Peifu's eyes, Sun Wen's group is above the top, and it is nothing at all. The warlords in the southwest have limited knowledge.
, they are all a bunch of experts who fight among themselves.
The biggest potential opponent is Feng Jun. During this period, Wu Peifu stepped up training of troops and purchased new weapons. He was targeting Feng Jun. He even had plans to surpass Feng Jun. However, only when he actually reached the front line, especially from Manchuria to Borgia.
On the short 70-kilometer road, Wu Peifu was shocked one after another.
Any modern war is a battle of logistics. In order to fight the decisive battle with the Russians, Fengjun mobilized more than 300,000 militiamen and laborers, more than 100,000 animals to transport supplies, and more than 20,000 horse-drawn carriages. A dense labor force
, building roads, rushing supplies, transporting the wounded, everything was done in an orderly manner.
Nowadays, the Beiyang Army is still mainly in the stage of catching husbands. The civilian husbands they capture do not have many professional skills at all, and they must be supervised by the army when they work. If they are not careful, they may escape.
Fengjun is completely different. People from all walks of life have basic registration, such as drivers, doctors, road construction workers, etc., all have special associations. After the war starts, these people must be ready to be drafted at any time.
Obey orders unconditionally. In addition, the number of livestock available in various places and the number of strong laborers that can be mobilized are all registered in detail. Once needed, they can be immediately put into use on the front line.
Wu Peifu was amazed by this complete and powerful mobilization ability. This is the true integration of military and civilians. With such organizational capabilities, the main battle force is completely freed from trivial matters and can receive effective supplements at any time.
Wu Peifu also had an account in his mind. With Fengjun's ability, it was not impossible to organize a million-strong army. After actually arriving at the front line, Wu Peifu was even more shocked. He could not see the endless artillery.
The positions and artillery pieces of various calibers all made Wu Peifu covet.
He obtained thirty-six 150mm howitzers from Fengjun and regarded them as treasures. They were used as weapons to suppress the army. Even the Japanese Army did not equip a large number of heavy artillery of this caliber. Wu Peifu was very proud of this.
.But at present, the maximum caliber artillery equipped by the Fengjun artillery has reached 240 mm. The thick barrel and slender body are full of power.
When Wu Peifu heard that the range of a cannon can exceed 26,000 meters, Wu Peifu was completely shocked. He almost asked Zhang Tinglan for it. No matter how much it cost, he would get it! But at the tip of his tongue,
Wu Peifu held back again. Let alone whether Fengjun could buy this kind of super artillery, even if they were willing to sell it, they might not be able to maintain it well in their hands.
In fact, Wu Peifu had already felt a strong gap when he witnessed the bloody fight between Fengjun and the Russians. Even if the 3rd Beiyang Division he led single-handedly could withstand the desperate bombardment of heavy artillery, it was definitely a question.
A question!
But the Russians not only held on, they were also engaged in a life-and-death fight with Feng Jun. Both sides entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat. When it came to fighting will, Wu Peifu asked himself that there was a huge difference between his troops and the Russians.
Even if he can't compare with the Russians, how can he compare with Feng Jun who can defeat the Russians? Originally, Wu Peifu still had his heart to join the war and earn some face for Beiyang. At this time, he was completely calm. Even if Zhang Tinglan didn't
With his twisted thinking, Beiyang's army is only worthy of being used as cannon fodder, and he is simply not qualified to participate in a battle of this level.
Thinking of this, when Wu Peifu looked at Zhang Tinglan, there was a hint of awe in his eyes. It was really shocking that this young man had such a tiger and wolf force in his hands.
"Brother Zhuoyan, Wu also said that he would lead his troops to join the war, but now that he sees such a tragic battle situation, he really overestimates his capabilities and feels very ashamed!"
"Brother Ziyu, China has a vast territory, abundant resources, and a large population, but why is it repeatedly bullied by foreign powers? Have you ever thought about the reason?"
This question is not easy to answer. Wu Peifu thought for a long time before saying: "Some people said that the great powers had strong ships and powerful guns, but we also had the Beiyang Fleet, but the result was that the entire army was wiped out. Some people said that the great powers had advanced systems, and we
I have also learned from this. It has been nearly ten years since the founding of the Republic of China, and the national destiny has declined even more. Wu always asks himself, but can never find the reason, and he is really ashamed to the extreme!"
"Brother Ziyu may be right, but in my opinion, there are only two reasons. One is the problem of industrialization and the other is the problem of social management. Industrialization solves the problem of weapons, while social management solves the problem of people. For example
In the Guannei area right now, the land is in the hands of the landlords, and the tenant farmers are completely dependent on the land. They go hungry for half the year, and they have even more wishful thinking about getting an education. Even if these people go to the battlefield, their bodies and minds will not be able to survive.
, are completely unprepared for modern warfare, and where will the military’s combat effectiveness come from?”
Zhang Tinglan said with a wry smile: "In a world where the jungle is strong, the weaker the army, the more it will be plundered. Every society is in the shape of a champagne tower. Only when the upper level is full will the lower level get it. After the same encounter with plunder,
, The lower classes are the first to go bankrupt. Although China has 40 million compatriots, I am afraid that only less than 10% can really stand up and compete with the great powers!"
When Zhang Tinglan said this, he not only thought of a country in later generations with a population of 100 million and a billion livestock. If China does not undergo earth-shaking changes and does not completely abandon the garbage of the old era, I am afraid that there is a danger of crawling forever.
.
"Brother Zhuoyan really hit the nail on the head." Wu Peifu nodded vigorously: "The world has only seen the improvement of Fengtian's military strength. In fact, the changes in civil affairs in the three eastern provinces are really earth-shaking. Fengjun can have today's combat effectiveness.
It’s not surprising. It’s just that in such a big country, it’s really difficult to completely reform.”
Zhang Tinglan looked at Wu Peifu who was thoughtful, and was not worried that he had learned the key to Fengjun's strength. Fengjun's experience was there, and anyone could learn from it, but it was easier said than done, if he could really do it.
That would not be Beiyang. But in the final analysis, it would be a good thing if Wu Peifu is willing to make some efforts to release some signals of reform and stir up China's stagnant water.
"Commander, our air force has detected a Russian reinforcement force, which is heading towards Borgia. It is expected to arrive within a day!" Yang Yuting sent a telegram to Zhang Tinglan.
"Borja's enemies have become a turtle in a urn. They must not be allowed to stand up. How much time will it take for Sun Anhu and the others to end the battle?"
Yang Yuting immediately said: "At present, our army has broken into the city, but the Russians continue to resist in the ruins. They are very tenacious. I am afraid it will take a day or two to end the battle. If we want to clear the whole city, it will take at least three to five
day time."
"It's too slow, this will never work!" Zhang Tinglan frowned. Borgia's two divisions are the elites of the Russian Far East. If they can be killed, it will be much easier if the army attacks Chita again, but once reinforcements arrive
If it comes, even if it can't reverse the overall situation, it will give these cooked ducks a chance to escape.
"Commander, don't worry, I'll send you some treasures!"
Just when Zhang Tinglan was worrying, intelligence chief Chang Yinhuai suddenly walked in with a smile, holding a thick stack of records in his hand.
Chang Yinhuai sent the record to Zhang Tinglan as if it were a treasure: "Commander, I got this specially. It is guaranteed to demoralize the Russian army!"
When Yang Yuting looked at these records, he also guessed the intention: "Isn't this imitating Gaixia's lament and using Chu's music to disperse Chu's soldiers?"
"Chief of Staff Mingjian, I just want to imitate the enemies on all sides. These records include recordings of traditional Russian folk songs, works by Tchaikovsky, Russia's favorite composer, and speeches by Her Majesty the Queen."
Zhang Tinglan laughed loudly when he heard this: "This method is great. I will immediately arrange a loudspeaker to broadcast to me in the city. Let's see if the method of our ancestors two thousand years ago is effective!"
After the order was issued, Fengjun quickly found eight huge loudspeakers and pointed them in the direction of Borgia. The melancholy and desolate songs immediately rang out, and along with the sound of gunfire, they drifted to the Russians.
In the ears, the Russian soldiers who were fighting desperately were suddenly startled, and many people stopped unconsciously.
Fengjun also lowered the firepower in a tacit understanding, and the battlefield became strangely peaceful. The singing drifted farther and farther away, and each Russian soldier heard it more and more clearly. At this time, Sophia's voice also came out along with the singing.
"My people, Russians should no longer kill each other. We need peace, let go of hatred, and share our homeland. My family all died at the hands of the majority party, my father, mother, sister, brother, and I
Likewise, in this battle, more and more Russians have lost their family members. The pain of losing loved ones is like weeds in the field, growing wildly every moment. Are you still willing to let the tragedy continue?
Do you still want to lose your loved ones..."
The singing and speech were like a spell. Most of the Russian soldiers felt sour in their noses. No one was a man of stone. The softest part of their hearts was being touched and their spirits were softened.
"Damn it, where did the singing come from? What on earth is going on?"
Sugorov in the headquarters is anxiously directing the battle. Although the situation is very unfavorable to Russia, he still does not want to give up the last chance. Reinforcements are getting closer and closer. He still has a chance. As long as he persists, he will win as much as possible.
If it is possible to block the Chinese, Russia will soon organize a larger army to wipe out all these Chinese!
While he was meditating hard on the map, the sound of floating singing came over. At first, Sugorov thought it was someone singing, but soon he felt something was wrong.
"Comrade Commander, it was played by the Chinese. They are playing folk songs to us." When the staff officer said this, a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes. He seemed to remember his mother humming this song when he was a child.
, who coaxed his younger brothers and sisters to sleep. At that time, there were no wars, no killings, only peaceful families...
"No!" Sugolov immediately became alert, and he roared loudly: "This is a Chinese conspiracy. No one is allowed to listen to it anymore, and their ears are blocked immediately, all of them."
Although Sugorov was alert, it was too late. All the Russian soldiers heard the singing, and some even shed tears in their eyes. Since World War I, this country has experienced six years of war, and no one can bear it.
After staying, they just want to go home and enjoy the long-lost family affection.
Although they blocked their ears as ordered, some people still quietly left a gap to allow sounds to come in.
Sugolov also knew that the situation was not good. If the singing continued, the Russian army would collapse. He hurriedly summoned the majority party members and league members.
"Comrades, the despicable Chinese want to disintegrate the morale of our military. Your task now is to destroy those record machines. We cannot let our soldiers continue to be polluted. Please!"
These Russians also knew that the situation was not good, and they all followed the orders and prepared for battle. The Feng army on the opposite side had already prepared a response, and a big net quietly opened! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature,
