Chapter 107: Snowy Night Talking (2)

Zheng Yu looked at the map and the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff who was waving the command whip.

"The National Defense Force now has a total of twelve A-level divisions and fifteen B-level divisions. It has been expanded to wartime organization. It is still expanding thirty-two infantry brigades, with the goal of achieving the personnel organization of B-level divisions. In terms of combat power, the National Defense Force's B-level division will not be at a disadvantage in dealing with an ordinary infantry division of the Russian army." Kang Yan continued, "But the front troops in the southwest, southeast and central and southern regions will also leave some troops. Currently, four B-level divisions, six brigades, three standing divisions and some cavalry units have to station in these places, especially guarding against some rebel forces in Siam and the border areas. Overall, in the north, our expanded troops are still at a disadvantage in terms of military strength."

Siam?

Zheng Yu felt a little bit thundered.

Regarding this country, he not only knew that he later changed his name to Thailand, and wanted to establish Greater Thailand for a while, including Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam, and even the Dai people in China, but also knew that he had been with the island country during World War II, and later he was begged by the United States, and then he was plotted by Soros again. He knew that the Thai baht was not very valuable, there were many overseas Chinese in China, and the common people generally believed in Buddhism, and then he became a shemale. In a word, he couldn't even have a slight understanding of Thai history.

It is no wonder that his knowledge of Thai history comes from the magazine "Research on the History of War". He forgot which episode talked about a long history of popular science about Thailand's modern reform. However, he had a problem, or a common problem of pseudo-puzzling, which was that he read books seriously and read them quickly. So a country like Siam, or Thailand, was really not deeply impressed by his mind. He remembered a number, which seemed to be that Siam's fiscal revenue reached 40% of the Qing Dynasty in a certain year, which really shocked him at that time - shocked the garbage of the Qing Dynasty.

"In addition, the northern part of Annan, Tibet, Qinghai, and Sichuan are not peaceful. There are also some places, including the Great Northwest and Taiwan, which seem to be sprinkled with pepper. The current strategy is to clench a few fists and maintain some of the troops to defend the border and transportation key points. This is only possible." Kang Yan said, "Many of these southern troops have replenished heavy firearms to the north, and even the soldiers have removed many combat backbones in the south, especially non-commissioned officers and officers. Now the south is empty, and the only thing left is to scare people."

Zheng Yu thought about it and asked strangely: "If our army's expansion is completed, we will not talk about the different divisions' organization, but in terms of quantity, then our country will have six imperial guard divisions, plus forty-six national defense divisions in the north. Russia has fifty-eight divisions and island countries have seventeen divisions, which means our 53 divisions are 75 divisions combined by Russia and Japan. It seems that the gap is not too great, right? Why is the situation in our country very unhappy by the Chief of Staff? "

"There are a few issues here that need attention." Kang Yan said, "First of all, the organizational differences are the troops equipped by the Russian army in the Far East, all draw European veterans and transport technical equipment, and make up for the organization as much as possible. Europe is just mobilizing troops and light firepower, relying on Germany's promise to ensure safety. It is a vacant city plan. It can be said that almost all the essence of the Russian army is concentrated in Asia. According to the organization, a single infantry division of the Russian army has reached 16,000, which is more than the wartime organization of our Class A Division of the Defense Forces. Including the reserve troops of the division of the master, there are 600 more people. In terms of heavy firepower, the Russian army has also rapidly improved through military-industry cooperation with Germany in recent years. In this regard, the new divisions of our Class B Division and the Shelf Brigade are weaker."

Zheng Yu nodded: "I have noticed this time in St. Petersburg."

"The Japanese division, the A-level team was 22,000, and the B-level team was 18,000, which was almost the same as the infantry division of the Royal Imperial Guard. In recent years, the island people have also wanted to use the loincloth to develop their military equipment. The island people suffered a great loss in the 19894-1895, so over the years, from artillery to machine guns, the domestic military-industrial enterprises have also developed rapidly." Kang Yan continued, "So in terms of the strength of the army, our gap is not only in terms of the number of divisions, but also in terms of organization."

"The biggest disadvantage is the strategic situation." Kang Yan said while gesturing, "Compared with the army, we suffer greater losses in the navy. After Japan and Russia joined forces, the navy has a total of 22 battleships, while my country has only eight battleships. Although my country's two latest Guangzhou-class battleships and Cheetah-class equipment patrol are said to be of extraordinary strength, and our warships have a higher degree of modernization and generally have a shorter age, overall... Although I am not a naval expert, at present, our navy is probably not an opponent of the Japanese-Russian joint fleet in confrontation."

Zheng Yu frowned.

"This forces our navy to mobilize its troops to the south, concentrate training, and prevent it from being blocked by the Japanese and Russian navy in ports. Now, the Bohai Bay can only rely on various forts and lightning strike ships to defend, and the Japanese and Russian fleet can freely choose the landing location under the cover of the joint naval fleet. In this way, our army's troops, which were originally at a clear disadvantage, must further divide their troops and guard the key points of each coast." Kang Yan continued to gesture on the map, "For this war zone, the transportation line is also a big problem. At present, the main railway trunk line in the northeast is the Jingqi Line, from Beijing to Tianjin to Qinhuangdao to Jinzhou to Shenyang (Fengtian) to Changchun to Qiqihar, then the second-level trunk line from Manzhouli to Qiqihar and then to Mudanjiang, and another second-level trunk line from Shenyang to Lushun."

"The development of the Northeast has just been carried out for a few years, and the foundation is still too thin. In addition to the reserves of the military station warehouse, materials and soldiers must be greatly supplemented by the internal remittance. There are two main transportation lines: one is to go along the railway from Beijing to Harbin, and the other is to transport the Bohai Bay to Yingkou, Jinzhou or Lushun to the land, and then take the railway. The section from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou is built in a narrow corridor by the sea. Once the sea control power is lost, the railway is likely to be cut off under the bombardment of enemy naval guns, and there is no need to mention the sea access. In this way, the Northeast Front Army is essentially isolated, only

Can fight independently." Kang Yan said helplessly, "The front-end military's previous list of materials actually considered this issue. The Ministry of Defense understands this aspect. However, it is difficult for the government to explain it. They cannot understand why so much fiscal revenue is invested in the army every year, why the navy still abandons sea power without fighting, and does 'outside maneuver', and do not understand why the army has to let the railways built be blown up. For them, it is unacceptable that the army spends money when peace is peaceful, and is afraid before fighting before fighting, or continues to demand money."

"Especially in Congress. Although many generals who retired from the military have moved into the political circle and entered the Congress, their strength is still not enough. Even if the Baath Party controls the absolute majority, there are still great differences within the party." Kang Yan smiled self-deprecatingly, "Civilians and soldiers seem to be born not very compatible. If His Majesty hadn't been tolerated, let alone expanding their military preparations for war, the Congress would have ceded territory and seeking peace long ago."

Zheng Yu thought about it and asked again: "Have you done tactical deduction here?"

Kang Yan nodded: "The General Staff War Office has regular deductions, but the result has always been top secret. Only a small area of ​​the empire knows the general picture of the Russian combat plan, and it is still being revised. Even I can't guarantee how different it is from the final implementation plan."

"However, we have made deductions on the situation of Russia such as the Northeast Front Army." Kang Yan said slowly, "According to our current strength, especially the logistics situation, it is very difficult to concentrate our troops to take the initiative. The entire situation is also equipped according to strategic defense. We have deduced it many times, and basically... the territory on the border has been destroyed, and the front line is maintained in our territory, an invincible pattern. In the end, it depends on which side can hold on and some domestic changes between the two sides. Of course, this is based on the current strength and normal soldiers."

"In addition, the biggest variable is the island people." He sighed, "Their landing has a great impact on the situation. On several occasions, we were sentenced to be lost because of the landing of the island people, but the landing involves the Central Front and the General Reserve Team. The deduction is too complicated, and the reliability of the results is still questionable."

Zheng Yu felt a little confused.
