Li Ningyu's plan this time was just to see if the Tsarist Russian authorities had the courage. In fact, let alone the Tsarist Russian Northern Fleet and the High Seas Fleet, this time they were targeting the Far East Yellow Sea Fleet, but they did not launch a war immediately, because Tsar Nicholas
Rama III believed that the time was not mature enough. He wanted to wait until more airships were mobilized to the border areas of Outer Mongolia. However, the production and speed of airships were really slow. In addition, Tsarist Russia was originally a large agricultural country with a weak industrial foundation and domestic political situation*
*.
But at the same time, the first batch of training aircraft in the Far East, about 50 of them, have begun to be put into use. According to Li Ningyu's speculation, the second Northeast War with Tsarist Russia may have to wait a few years, so the Far East develops bombers first, but even if
The war is ahead of schedule. As long as a machine gun is added to the training aircraft, it can be used as an ordinary fighter jet. Therefore, Li Ningyu is not worried about Tsarist Russia's vigorous development of airships. However, it will have a certain impact on Li Ningyu's long-term plan.
After the latest combat plan was released, it was noon. Everyone finished lunch in Li Ningyu's room. Naturally, they were no longer sleepy, so they started discussing again in the room, but the topic was no longer limited to the first one.
The Northeastern Battle was another main battlefield in the Battle of the Century, a land war and a naval battle in South Asia.
If the most important victory in the entire century's war was the naval battle in the South China Sea, then the land war in South Asia was the most difficult cross-regional battle, both in terms of the number of troops and logistical supplies. At that time, the Far East
They were far inferior to France's colonial army. However, the Far East's successive victories in the Northeast War triggered the defection of the originally wavering Britain and the United States, which was the most important change.
After the war in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea ended, the main fleet of the Far East Navy immediately moved south. At the same time, all 52 warships of the Far East Fleet went directly to Vladivostok and cooperated with the Northeast Field Army to block the port as planned. However, the Russian Northern Fleet avoided fighting and gave
This gave the Far East ample time to adjust its deployment.
After the Far East Army landed on the coast of Vietnam, it began to take the initiative to attack the French colonial army that day. For the first time, it directly captured the commanding heights on the outer front of the fortress along the coast of Vietnam, and at the same time advanced to the inland Dawa Mountain and Xiaowa Mountain.
It provided a safe guarantee for subsequent landings in the Far East. Three field divisions were dispatched at the same time, and the troops were divided into three routes to go deep into South Asia. The French colonial army was in a hurry to fight, so it only deployed about 12 battalions along the coast of Vietnam. Naturally, it could not withstand it.
The elite of the Far East.
However, France, the world's second oldest colonial empire, has not only established its power in South Asia for a day or two, so after successfully landing in the Far East, it immediately organized 33 divisions to prepare for a counterattack, and the Far East Group also fully understood its own potential in South Asia.
Due to the disadvantage, they only continued to consolidate the defenses during the advance. Therefore, on the third day after the landing in the Far East, the first major war broke out between the Far East and France in South Asia. The two sides fought fiercely to compete for two strategic locations.
The entire battle lasted for 5 days.
However, in the end, the two highlands of Dawashan and Xiaowashan fell into the hands of the French colonial army. However, this was a deliberate move by the Far East. In the end, just after the French colonial army captured Dawashan and Xiaowashan, they just inserted
When the military flag was raised, the warships of the Yellow Sea Fleet, which had already assembled on the coast of Vietnam, immediately fired wave after wave of artillery shells.
The amount of army troops that the Far East can dispatch in South Asia is really limited. Whether it is Li Ningyu or the senior officers of the Far East, because almost all the main forces in the Far East are fighting Tsarist Russia on the northeastern border at this time, the only ones who can send soldiers to South Asia are
There are only two places, Taiwan and Ryukyu.
Dawa Mountain and Xiaowa Mountain are strategically important places in South Asia. There is actually no reason for the Far East to give up on its own initiative. However, in the face of enemies more than ten times stronger than itself, Li Ningyu decided to adopt a strategy of luring the enemy in order to reduce sacrifices.
The Yellow Sea Fleet provided an extension of firepower for the South Asian War, but before that, the Far East also suffered a lot of casualties.
This offensive and defensive battle between Dawashan and Xiaowashan can be said to be a great victory for the Far East. Dawashan and Xiaowashan once again returned to the hands of the Far East. The French colonial army also realized something and took the initiative to withdraw the Far East Navy.
The fleet's artillery fire covered the area, and at the same time asked the French High Seas Fleet for assistance.
France's main fleet, the High Seas Fleet, is the world's largest naval fleet. Even if the British fleet wants to compete with the French High Seas Fleet, it needs to send two fleets. At that time, there were two fleets in South Asia and the Far East, one was the South China Sea Fleet.
, the other is the Yellow Sea Fleet supporting from the north. However, after the French authorities received the battle situation in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea, they immediately dispatched another fleet to South Asia, that is, the French Pacific Fleet. The High Seas Fleet and the Pacific Fleet are the French
Two important weapons of the navy.
After being ordered by the French authorities, two fleets from Malacca tried to break through the blockade of the Far East Sea Fleet and sailed to the South China Sea to fight. The Pacific Fleet also came from a distance to support, but because it underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Far East, the Pacific Fleet hurriedly
When transferring to the South China Sea, supplies and ammunition were not prepared well. Coupled with some minor mistakes in command, a main warship was stranded before a fierce battle with the Far East Fleet. This incident had a great impact on the morale of the Pacific Fleet.
big.
But the most important thing is that after receiving such information, the French authorities immediately changed the generals before the war. The 350,000-ton French Pacific Fleet was also defeated by the 200,000-ton Far Eastern Sea Fleet.
The small fleets, the Yellow Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet have a total of three attack submarine forces, a warning and a reconnaissance formation. However, after the Bohai and Yellow Sea battles, the three submarine formations of the Yellow Sea Fleet all need to replenish supplies, so they are later than the main force of the Yellow Sea Fleet.
Arrive at the South China Sea.
The French authorities' idea was to have the High Seas Fleet cooperate with the Pacific Fleet to form a pincer attack and strangle the maritime power in the Far East. However, after the Pacific Fleet suddenly encountered the Yellow Sea Fleet for the first time, the new commander of the French Pacific Fleet died on the spot.
, because the remaining ships had no commanders, they were forced to retreat to the Pacific waters and wait for the latest assignment from the French authorities. However, according to the report of Huang Sea Fleet Commander Huang Tao, the flagship of the French Pacific Fleet was not hit at all.
It was not until the end of the Battle of the Century that Li Ningyu figured out this sudden incident. It turned out to be a quarrel between the French Pacific Fleet. Because of an unexpected grounding, the French authorities directly replaced the commander of the fleet. The old and new replaced each other naturally.
It caused countless disputes, so the destruction of the French Pacific Fleet was actually the seeds planted by the French authorities themselves.
