In the cabin of the battleship Yiyang, Li Ningyu's bedroom had become a small conference room. The discussion about the First Northeast War and the South Asian War lasted all night. It was not until dawn that everyone returned to their rooms to rest with satisfaction.
, but after less than 5 hours of rest, everyone gathered in Li Ningyu's room again, because just an hour ago, Li Ningyu received an urgent military intelligence telegram, mainly about the movements of the Tsarist Russian troops in the Northeast.
Looking at Li Xihua, Kong Xiaoping, and Cai Songpo with dark circles under their eyes, Li Ningyu didn't have any unnecessary nonsense. He looked directly at the contents of the telegram and said: "The Northern Intelligence Group just sent a military intelligence telegram. It is said that Tsarist Russia's recent army and navy
There have been a lot of changes, especially this morning, when Tsarist Russia's Northern Fleet and High Seas Fleet successfully rounded off. At the same time, Tsarist Russia's 12th Army, about 24 divisions, about 260,000 people, carrying 3,216 artillery pieces, was led by Tsarist Russian veteran General O
Marshal Mali took personal command and began to gather in Outer Mongolia. What do you think Tsarist Russia’s intention is?”
After hearing what Li Ningyu said, everyone present couldn't help but take a deep breath, because everyone knew that the strongest fleets of the Tsarist Russian Navy were the Northern Fleet and the High Seas Fleet. This time, Tsarist Russia not only sent the main force of the navy, but also
The 12th Army, the most elite of the Tsarist Russian Army, was also dispatched, and the number of artillery carried was also very large.
However, everyone present was a military commander who had experienced several wars. They immediately saw through the goal of Tsarist Russia’s move. However, only Cai Songpo, a foolish young man, said: "Master Yu, Tsarist Russia probably wants to send troops to control Siberia."
Big railroad!”.
"Well, Songpo, keep talking!" Li Ningyu nodded slightly to indicate that Cai Songpo could continue.
With Li Ningyu's permission, the young Cai Songpo pointed at the military map of the Far East and immediately began to say according to his own opinion: "Everyone should know why Tsarist Russia lost everything in the first Northeast War.
The important point is that the Trans-Siberian Railway was controlled by our Far East Advance Corps shortly after the war began, which resulted in Tsarist Russia losing its ability to transport troops and logistics, thus causing Tsarist Russia to completely lose the first Northeast War!"
"So I feel that the actions of Tsarist Russia's navy and army this time must be aimed at the Trans-Siberian Railway, so we should immediately mobilize the main force of the Northeast Field Army to proactively eliminate the Tsarist Russian 12th Army that is trying to invade!" Cai Songpo finished his sentence.
He looked at Li Ningyu, as if he was waiting for Li Ningyu to issue a combat order, but there was an immediate voice of opposition in the room, and that person was Li Xihua.
"I don't agree with this!" Li Xihua's voice sounded immediately. After hearing Li Xihua's objection to his suggestion, Cai Songpo immediately prepared to ask a question, but was interrupted by Li Ningyu, who had been watching everyone, with a smile and motioned to Cai Songpo to wait a moment.
An Wucai asked Li Xihua to express his different opinions first, and Li Ningyu nodded in agreement.
Li Xihua also walked to the military map of the Far East and said while plotting the map: "First of all, we need to know that the Northeast Field Army has a total of 750,000 troops. They are currently mainly deployed in Outer Mongolia and the Outer Northeast. The troops are very scattered. In a short period of time, in fact,
It is simply impossible to form a large-scale massed force, let alone take the initiative to attack Tsarist Russia’s 12th Army with combat power!”.
"In addition, according to the message from the intelligence team, it is not just the army that is taking action this time. The Northern Fleet and the High Seas Fleet are also key points. So I think the Russian authorities are probably just trying to gather a large number of troops in Outer Mongolia to create problems for us.
Pressure and misunderstanding, so that we can disrupt our position first and proactively expose our flaws to give them the opportunity to launch the second Northeast War!".
Hearing what Li Xihua said, Kong Xiaoping couldn't sit still and echoed: "Well, I also agree with General Xihua's opinion. Tsarist Russia is very willing to gather troops in Outer Mongolia and let us mobilize some of the troops originally stationed outside.
The strength of the Northeast region!".
After hearing Li Xihua's analysis, Cai Songpo also found that his view of the problem was not comprehensive enough. However, he still insisted that the Russian authorities might send troops to invade Outer Mongolia at any time in an attempt to seize the strategic railway of the Trans-Siberian Railway. However, after hearing
The three people present expressed their opinions, and then Li Ningyu also stood up to explain his views.
"Okay, in fact, the situation analyzed by the three of you is correct. However, in the first Northeast War, the main army battle order of the Tsarist Russian Army was basically crippled by the Northeast Army. So this time, the Tsarist Russian authorities should actually mainly want to give us
To exert pressure and create a situation of invasion at any time in Outer Mongolia, the main reason is to see how we will respond!"
Hearing what Li Ningyu said, Li Xihua and Kong Xiaoping both nodded in agreement, but Cai Songpo hesitated to speak, but Li Ningyu then said: "In the first Northeast War, why could we in the Far East defeat the enemy in just one month?"
, to fully control the Trans-Siberian Railway, I believe that the Tsarist Russian authorities are aware of this, so they will not dare to act rashly until they are absolutely sure!”.
After Kong Xiaoping understood what Li Ningyu was saying, he immediately stood up and said involuntarily: "Haha, Mr. Yu is right. If they dare to invade, let them taste the power of the steel torrent again. We in the Far East
The special armored vehicles are not just decorations!”.
But Li Ningyu went on to say: "But this time, we simply used the trick and took the initiative to expose a place with empty military strength to test the reaction of the Russian authorities!".
Li Ningyu's proposal immediately won the support of everyone present. However, while discussing how to mobilize troops, there was a knock on the door of Li Ningyu's deputy captain Zheng Long: "Master Yu, General Peng De is passing on
An urgent message has arrived!".
"Yichuan, come in!" Hearing Zheng Long's voice, Li Ningyu directly asked Zheng Long to come in to discuss together. Then Zheng Long, holding a telegram, walked into the room. The other four people in the room,
While discussing, Li Ningyu read the telegram sent by Peng De in his hand, and then handed it to everyone to circulate.
Before 12 noon that day, Li Ningyu was on his way to Saudi Arabia and issued a military mobilization order directly from the battleship Yiyang, agreeing with Peng De, the top military officer in the northern region, to mobilize the troops originally stationed in Liaodong.
On the peninsula, the Third Garrison Army in the Lushun area, personally commanded by Zhang Zuolin, marched directly from Lushun to the Outer Mongolia region. At the same time, the 20th Army of the Northeast Field Army also assembled directly through the Trans-Siberian Railway to the Outer Mongolia region.
