While Kuropatkin was anxiously waiting for the results of the encirclement and suppression, the top commander of the Shenji Force, Lady Sasha, rushed into his forward headquarters.
"You gave the order for the massacre?"
"That's right, Miss Sasha."
"Those are old men with no fighting ability and innocent civilians! Your actions will dim our victory!"
Kuropatkin glared fiercely at the girl who was questioning him, and yelled for a while with an aura that was not inferior to her: "If we don't take some extraordinary measures, we can make these yellow-skinned pigs feel scared and stop them.
If we support the Chinese army, we will lose the victory! No, it should be said that the current situation has made all the achievements we will achieve in the future look bleak! I promised His Majesty the Tsar that by the end of November
We captured Fengtian City, but now that November is almost over, our main force has not even seen Fengtian City, but has lost more than 10,000 troops! Please understand the battlefield pattern clearly, Your Excellency, Lady!"
"So?" Sasha tit-for-tat, "We have to use shameless massacre to make up for the commander's incompetence?"
"Miss Sasha Pandelyevna! Pay attention to the tone of your words!" Being hit directly, Kuropatkin could only bring out his qualifications and dignity as a veteran, "Instead of blaming me here, you might as well go back to
Troops, take off again and fly around to find those damn Chinese as soon as possible!"
Kuropatkin's words made Sasha's dissatisfaction even more serious.
It is everyone's consensus that Shen Ji's continuous combat ability is not good, but it is difficult for ordinary people to imagine how much of a burden combat operations put on Shen Ji. When Lin Youde captured Nanyang, Ba Gan was as tired as a mummy, with a little bit on his body
The fat is gone, and the muscle fibers seem to have become much slimmer.
Although in most cases the two warring parties will not let their goddesses get so tired, it is normal for the average weight of the participating goddess girls to lose 20 to 30 pounds after a battle. They do not have more than three months of rest and recuperation.
It is impossible to restore combat power. Therefore, the commanders in this time and space will use Shenji's combat power very sparingly. Countries like Britain and France simply train Shenji girls to serve as the highest commanders on the battlefield, because Shenji is the one who knows the physical strength of the sisters best.
The existence of consumption can allocate combat power most effectively.
This kind of restraint will become particularly exaggerated when the combat power of both goddesses is about the same.
In ancient times, the way countries with equal strength conducted battles was that the ordinary troops of both sides lined up to face each other, and then the gods and queens fought one-on-one according to their rankings. The regular troops often just cheered at this stage and waited for the outcome of the battle between the gods and queens.
, and let’s see if the commanders of both parties are satisfied with the result.
If you are satisfied, the battle will end; if you are not satisfied - usually the defeated side is not satisfied - the ordinary troops will begin to advance forward and start fighting.
Generally speaking, if the defeated Shenji dares to mobilize ordinary troops to attack, it means that the defeat of their own Shenji is not miserable. If the ordinary troops win, they can force the opponent to send Shenji to save the front and consume the opponent's Shenji's physical strength. After the physical strength is exhausted,
It's almost the same, and after your own Goddess has rested for half a day, you can join the Goddess to fight again.
If ordinary troops lose, they really lose.
Of course, there are also many famous commanders who do not follow this set of rules of engagement. These people often use means such as intercepting grain roads to greatly weaken the opponent's troops and establish a victory before the decisive battle. Otherwise, they will divert the tiger away from the mountain, surround Wei and rescue Zhao, etc.
.In short, they take advantage of the vastness of the battlefield to avoid real situations and engage in mobile warfare.
This is what the Chinese are best at.
Europeans like to fight head-on, so the survival rate of European goddesses in ancient times was very low. The girls either fought to death on the battlefield, or died of exhaustion without recovery from continuous fighting...
Later, with the expansion of European activity areas and the increase in population, the scale of wars also became larger and larger. Therefore, the use of Shen Ji was just the opposite of that in ancient times.
The two armies with the same strength of Shen Ji often do not engage in Shen Ji's combat operations for a long time after the beginning of the battle, so as to preserve Shen Ji's physical strength to the maximum extent - in the same level of Shen Ji duel, it may be just a little bit different.
Physical strength leads to a completely different battle situation.
This situation will continue until one side's conventional troops suffer heavy losses and have to throw in Shen Ji to save the situation.
It is precisely because of this that the Russian troops moved towards Fengtian City where Shen Ji was stationed without Shen Ji following her.
Originally, these troops were supposed to storm Fengtian City, force the Chinese Shen Ji to fight, and consume the Shen Ji's physical strength together with the general troops. Finally, Sasha led the Russian girls into the battle and won the victory in one fell swoop.
It's good now that the Chinese goddess is eating and drinking well in the city and waiting for work, but Sasha and her girls have lost a few pounds in search of the Chinese troops who disappeared without knowing where they are.
Kuropatkin probably knew that his request was a bit excessive, so after meeting Sasha's angry gaze, he added in a much softer tone: "Don't worry, Moscow has issued an order, and before the end of the year, the Cossacks will
The Second Paladin Regiment will set off on a flying battleship to support our Far East battlefield, and Vladivostok’s Naval Goddess Force will also provide support.”
"But I haven't heard any news about the Chinese mobilizing reinforcements."
Sasha's tit-for-tat speech obviously made Kuropatkin miserable. The staff present exchanged anxious looks, and no one said anything.
In fact, in the past few days, the headquarters of the Russian Far Eastern Front has been filled with a negative mood of defeat. This negative atmosphere is in perfect harmony with Kuropatkin's anxiety.
Kuropatkin, who had long been aware of this negative atmosphere, punched the map table and said bitterly: "Damn Chinese! I have to find you, and I will dig three feet into the ground to find you!"

So where is the Nanyang Army's northbound detachment now?
It turned out that after the victory at Sanlipu, Chen Hongda believed that most of the main force of the Russian army was between himself and Fengtian, and the subsequent encirclement of the Russian army would be mainly from the north. On the contrary, in the south, between the army and Dalian Jinzhou,
In fact, there were not many Russian troops left, and the encirclement network formed could not be very tight. In addition, the Russian army's attention was all in the north, so Chen Hongda decided on a plan to escape the golden cicada.
This plan was opposed by most of the staff members in the staff squad, especially the youngest staff officer Jiang Baili, who objected most fiercely. However, Chen Hongda defied all opinions and split the army into four small units. Under the guidance of the bandit guides, from the Russian rear guard
They slipped through the gaps between the troops, and then gathered again behind the Russian army.
Because there was not much ammunition in the army, Chen Hongda gave up the idea of taking another shot and led the troops to begin to advance eastward, preparing to bypass the main force of the Russian army and return to Fengtian City. At the same time, Chen Hongda ordered each attack team to look for opportunities under the leadership of their guides.
Retreat to Fengtian.
However, war is always full of surprises, and one team did not receive Chen Hongda's order to retreat.
The radio of the team led by He Laoliu was broken during the battle, and the local guide also died heroically in the crossfire. After leaving the battle, He Laoliu's troops became blind and deaf, and their eyes were blackened.
The old man thought for a while, most of the Russians were in the north now, and after doing such a big job, the main force would probably have to "plough" every ravine, so he made up his mind and led the troops southward, back to the time when he broke into Guandong.
I went to Pulandian where I lived for ten years.
It should be said that such brave people always have luck. He Laoliu's team did not encounter any Russian troops along the way. They arrived in Pulandian safely, and then discovered that there were no Russian troops stationed in this important town outside Jinzhou City! Old man
After catching up with an old acquaintance in the city, I got a piece of information: the Russians were arresting civilian laborers to build fortifications in Jinzhou City...
So the plot that everyone loved to see in the old anti-Japanese movies in the last time and space was staged in this time and space.
He Laoliu led his brothers to disguise themselves as civilians and sneaked into Jinzhou City - the Russians couldn't tell the difference between southerners and northerners, let alone the difference in accents, and the common people kept silent when they saw it.
.
That night, a fire broke out in Jinzhou City. The garrison headquarters, ammunition depot, and barracks in the city were all on fire. The door of the granary was opened by someone unknown. The people of Jinzhou looted the food inside at an astonishing speed.
Once empty, they dispersed into the streets and alleys.
Kuropatkin was naturally furious again, but this time before he could adjust his deployment to contain the main force of the Nanyang Army, which had actually jumped out of the Liaodong Peninsula, the cold wave came.
Originally, General Winter was a close friend of the Russians. In the 19th century, he helped the Russians defeat the Little Man. In the 20th century, he helped the Russians defeat the Mustache. But this time, General Winter betrayed the Russians and stood on the opposite side of Russia.
.
In fact, this is not surprising. In order to advance quickly, the Russian army did not bring enough winter clothes. The clothes were all in the hands of the baggage team. As a result, the baggage was almost burned by the Nanyang Army's attacking troops and the bandits who became more and more courageous. Then
The food and supplies for the Russian troops were almost completely reimbursed. The fire that He Laoliu set in Jinzhou can be regarded as burning the Russians internally.
Even if the supplies were shipped from Haitouwei immediately, the mountains would be blocked due to heavy snowfall, and the supplies would have to be piled in Dalian Bay and would not be delivered to the troops.
All these conditions came together, and the result was that the Russians were beaten to the ground by General Dong, and they lay there miserable. On the contrary, the Chinese troops either clung to the fortified city where the wind and snow stopped, or they had just escaped from the hands of the Russians.
I grabbed a lot of clothes, cans and vodka, so I could dress warmly and eat well.
It seems that General Dong also has nationality.
Facing the Chinese army that had taken advantage of the right time, place and people, Kuropatkin was as stubborn and arrogant as Kuropatkin. He also knew that it would be bad if he continued like this. So in early December, he sent a long and very sincere telegram to Moscow, asking Moscow to
Send additional reinforcements and mobilize the navy to implement the "Second Plan."
At this time, the backward Russians did not have the advanced idea of encrypting messages. In fact, it was not until the beginning of World War I that they discovered, stimulated by bloody lessons, that military telegrams should be encrypted. At the beginning of World War I, the Russian frontline troops actually
The use of clear codes to communicate with the command headquarters resulted in the German high command being fully aware of the Russian army's actions, and for a time they suspected that this was a Russian move to deceive the enemy.
Now, the same thing is happening in Northeast China.
The day after Kuropatkin's report, Lin Ji's intelligence department sent the message intact to Lin Youde. With a stroke of his pen, Lin Youde transferred the message to the U.S. military and the French Far East Command.
A series of related organizations including.
Within a few days, rulers and leaders around the world knew that the Russians failed in the first round of the war in the Far East.
Almost at the same time, Operation Nezha Mind, carried out by the Nanyang Army in order to deal with the Russian Navy, also quietly came to the forefront.
The afterglow of the first scene of this final drama of the Gengzi Year has not faded away, and the second scene has begun.
(I just remembered that the capital of Tsarist Russia seems to be St. Petersburg. I have always been wrong before, but I am too lazy to change it. Everyone just thinks that there are some errors in this time and space, and the capital of Tsarist Russia is also Moscow).
