The news of Duan Tong's return to China was part of Li Ningyu's plan to deal with the domestic situation, but the proportion was not high. He was just sending a certain wrong message to some people in the country to take action in advance.
Sure enough, when Emperor Guangxu issued an edict stating that he was willing to abdicate but put forward certain conditions, Yuan Shikai could no longer sit still. He began to use force to force the palace. But at the same time that the Beiyang New Army and the Beijing Imperial Guards were fighting,
The Far East Corps led by Kong Xiaoping immediately began to advance from the north.
The domestic situation also made Tsar Nicholas II, who had been enduring very hard, impatient, but what awaited him in the end was a fatal blow.
After the War of the Century, the Far East built four large military airports in the Northeast, Outer Mongolia, and Outer Northeast. These things that were incomprehensible to all countries finally broke out in silence and anger.
Yuan Shikai's use of force to force the palace was very clever. He still used high-sounding excuses such as deploying defenses, but everyone on earth knew it, but they were unwilling to point it out, especially the revolutionary army, because as long as Yuan Shikai was helpful to the revolution, it would be fine.
However, the Far East Corps' march from the north disrupted all peace. Coupled with the Tsarist Empire's repeated actions in the northern region, Asia once again set off a huge war. This time, the Far East was still the protagonist, but the supporting role was from the Tsarist Russian Empire.
One, increased to three or four.
The revolutionary army has always been in the south, while Yuan Shikai controlled the northern region. After determining that the Far East Corps would move south, Yuan Shikai had no way out, and the tragedy of his life was about to come to an end.
In order to cooperate with Yuan Shikai's forced conquest, the Southern Revolutionary Army also became wary of the Far East Corps assembled in South Asia. However, they seemed to have forgotten one thing. Not all areas in the South were under their control. Just like Fujian and
Zhejiang and Zhejiang have always neither belonged to the northern faction nor been under the jurisdiction of the south.
It was precisely because of this fulcrum that Li Ningyu had a complete and comprehensive plan.
The Yangtze River is the largest river in Asia because its basin area, length, and water volume are the largest in Asia.
Originating from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it is about 3,200 kilometers from west to east and more than 960 kilometers from north to south. The river passes through Qinghai, Sichuan, Tibet, Yunnan, Chongqing, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Jiangsu, Shanghai and then flows into the East China Sea.
With a total length of 6,400 kilometers, it has become the third longest river in the world, second only to the Nile River in Africa and the Amazon River in South America. Together with the Yellow River, it is called the great mother river of the Chinese nation.
Although the average water depth of the Yangtze River is 10-40 meters, and some water sections are deeper than 100 meters, because the depth of the Yangtze River estuary is only about 10 meters, the warships of the Far East Yellow Sea Fleet traveling in the Yangtze River are generally small frigates and destroyers, but
After the Battle of the Century, Li Ningyu ordered the Far East Navy to build 300 destroyers within two years.
At that time, many people did not understand and did not know what Li Ningyu was thinking. However, after the revolutionary uprising broke out and hundreds of small ships of various types from the Far East were patrolling the entire Yangtze River Basin, everyone was impressed by Li Ningyu's unprecedented forward-looking strategy.
Clothes.
Of course, at this time, Li Ningyu would not stupidly stand up and say that all this was due to other reasons. Li Ningyu was also very useful to the admiration of the middle and lower-level officers in the naval system, so he blocked and controlled the entire Yangtze River Basin.
, naturally transformed into the trump card of the Far East.
The Huaxia-class destroyer, which Far East has independent intellectual property rights and built independently, has a standard displacement of 2800 tons to 3100 tons, a full load displacement of 3500 tons, a length of 150 meters, a width of 13 meters, and a draft of 3.5-4 meters. The main firepower system is:
Main gun, five twin-barreled 127 mm high-level and flat dual-purpose guns, torpedoes: five in five
2 33mm launch tubes, anti-aircraft artillery: 3 twin 40-50mm cannons, 10 single-barreled 20mm cannons, using a dual-shaft propulsion device, generating power: 56,000-60,000 horsepower, maximum speed: 33 knots -
When planning to build 300 Huaxia-class ships, Li Ningyu had several considerations at the time. First, the Far East received a large amount of war reparations after the middle of the century. This money naturally had to be used where it should be used. The order of battle of the Far East Navy at that time
, mainly concentrated in Asia, while the navies in Africa and the Americas are almost at an extremely low level, so the construction of naval warships has become inevitable;
Second: At that time, the Far East single-engine trainer aircraft and the twin-engine H-1 type had already begun final production. In the future, countries will surely rush to imitate or purchase them. By then, the giant maritime battleships will inevitably become obsolete early, and the new comprehensive maritime combat
Formation groups will inevitably rise, and air defense will become one of the main tasks; third: in the future echelon configuration of the sea, land, and air forces in the Far East, large battleships and cruisers will gradually decrease, while destroyers, submarines, and aircraft carriers will inevitably rise.
Therefore, based on these development needs, Li Ningyu promulgated a plan to build 300 Huaxia-class destroyers within 2 years. However, the development of the situation was obviously contrary to his previous ability to predict the war.
However, even if some things are advanced, according to the current power of the Far East, it still has a dominant position in Asia. However, it needs to be established after the complete defeat of the Tsarist Russian Empire. After all, the old colonial empire that has existed for hundreds of years has the resources and resources it controls.
Li Ningyu's strength cannot be ignored.
After the entire Yangtze River Basin was blocked by Far East Navy warships, the only ones that could still sail in the Yangtze River were some foreign warships, but they still had to accept the leadership of the Far East Navy, because this was an era where whoever had the biggest fist was the boss.
However, the fine tradition of the Far East Legion still maintains a modest, cautious, and polite style of doing things, but on issues of principle, it insists on neither being humble nor overbearing.
Due to the superior maritime power in the Far East, neither the Southern Revolutionary Party nor the New Beiyang Army could do anything about it. It was like the late Qing government after its defeat in the Sino-Japanese War of 1898. There was not a single warship that could provide them with support, although they both thought about buying it from Western countries.
Battleships, but building a naval fleet is not something that can be done with money.
Therefore, the current domestic situation is divided into four stages. Parts of the area south of the Yangtze River are controlled by the revolutionary army, the Yangtze River is controlled by the Far East Group, the northern area is controlled by the Beiyang New Army, and the northeastern region is still controlled by the Far East Group.
Because after such a situation occurred, both the Revolutionary Army and the New Beiyang Army felt helpless towards the Far East Group and sent representatives one after another to discuss with the Far East high-level officials, but Li Ningyu refused one by one because Li Ningyu said this: "
Go your own way and let others speak! My territory, listen to me!".
