Chapter 58 Chapter 2.15 The Battle of Neotalus

In the New Tales war, which side is mainly at fault?If scholars on both sides are allowed to judge, they will both place the blame on the other.But there is no doubt that those in power on both sides bear the primary responsibility.

Qin Tongli 2198 May, 5, the relationship between Shenzhou and Saibei powerful country deteriorated rapidly, expel foreign affairs personnel from each other, and are carrying out mutual evacuation of businessmen and overseas Chinese.

And both sides have also begun to hoard troops on the border, and war is inevitable.

Kazan Fortress.

General Kukov, with a medal on his chest like a bulletproof vest, arrived at his office. He has been authorized by the Red Palace to deal with the situation in the Far East.

The general and his staff are holding a pen to delineate the strategy for the area.

On the whole, the distance between Kazan Fortress and the Western Regions is nearly a thousand kilometers, and the two sides are completely within the area of ​​two theaters.

Here Kukov formulates the conflict with China. It seems that there is a sense of the gap between Chinese people sitting in Shaanxi and Gansu and discussing the eastern coastal defense.

……

In fact, the main strategic direction formulated by the Kremlin is not to collide with China in the central Asian plate.

The decision makers of the Red Palace believed that it was the arrogant intruder who provoked the conflict, and they had to deal with it head-on.

What is the main strategic plan of the red polar bear now?

The first direction is naturally the European continent. To find the Mediterranean outlet in the direction of southern Europe, it is necessary to cut the chickens to death. The second direction is to contact the Tianzhu Ocean. For this reason, it is necessary to break through the Persian plateau.

As for the unrestricted conflict with the Western Regions of China and the Mongolian Plateau, they are also trying their best to avoid it, because they have won the conflict in the center of the Asian plate, so what can they get?

There is only the vast Gobi, hot during the day and cold beaches at night.What?Where is the cantaloupe sweet?Does cotton grow well?
Maozi can take root in bitter cold places, bypass the Arctic Ocean, and establish settlements near the Bering Strait, relying on cold resistance rather than extraordinary management (farming) capabilities.

Even if the Red Palace has put all the strategic weight in the conflict with Shenzhou, and with a lot of luck, all the generals of Shenzhou will be buffed with mental retardation, and they will not be able to connect to the ice-free port of the Eastern Ocean for more than ten years.

Excellent ice-free port on the northern coastline of East Asia.

Mao Xiong is still not confident enough to rely on the manpower of digging potatoes in Siberia to push the Mongolian plateau in a wave, and then push it to the nine provinces of Liaoning, and then resist the military force after the northern general mobilization of Shenzhou.

……

It's just that Mao Xiong has always lacked dexterity in dealing with external issues.

The main world is like this. In the face of the departure of the original allies in East Asia, a million troops were deployed in the east. The original intention was to force them back to form an alliance. As a result, a conventional military confrontation was formed first, and after continuing to increase the weight, it became a nuclear confrontation .

In this world, Shenzhou does not have the tenacity of the main world. In the face of the increasing military power of Saibei in the southern Caucasus, the Saibei sent out their ambitions to "drink the horses from the North Sea and build a monument from stone", and The reasons are very good:

The north has been a threat to China for thousands of years, and any rising power in the north must be defeated at all costs.

These outposts also expounded the necessity of urgent action: now, it is even more necessary to take advantage of the fact that the Rakshasa people technology has not yet developed, a wave of gank.

In Shenzhou, anyone who disagrees with them is the "cowardly Lord Harmony faction", and there are many notorious figures in the "God Harmony faction" in the history of Shenzhou, the most famous being the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty cast in iron.Therefore, anyone who does not agree with these sects is a traitor.

Of course, for these reasons - Wei Keng complained that he couldn't: the northern threat faced by China in history was only based on the Liaodong region, which is the economic zone of the former Bohai Kingdom, as well as several lush places in southern Mongolia and the river areas in the Western Regions, which threatened agriculture. Central Plains of the times.

But now is the industrial age, competing for hundreds of thousands and tens of millions of productive forces, Maozi is an Eastern European power, 90.00% of the population base is concentrated in St. Petersburg, Moscow and other big cities, which is just close to the Rhine Valley and other forces. There is an irreconcilable geopolitical security crisis with each other.

And the anxiety of selling the generals and generals in Shenzhou is like "Baidu see a doctor", Wei Keng seriously suspects: they are reincarnated from Asan's side.

……

This place in Shenzhou is out of control, and General Kukov, who is leading the Eastern strategy at this time, is not a war planner in the universe.

The correct plan in his eyes is: In order to keep the strategy of going south to the Persian Plateau unaffected, a preventive counterattack must be taken against the power of China in the sub-center region.

On another timeline, Wei Kang's younger brother, Wei Kang gave him an evaluation: "Mao's version of the five-star general MacArthur."

At this time, in the command center of the Caucasus bunker, the general, pacing in front of the table where the staff gathered, put down the pipe in his hand, picked up the pen, and drew a thick red line on the strategic map on the table.The red line will cut through the solid yellow group representing the Shenzhou Group.

And with his pen, on the vast land of central Asia,

Black smoked Soviet heavy-duty construction vehicles are rolling forward from the Eastern Siberia region, and tens of thousands of steel-structured monsters are rolling out tracks three meters wide in the jungle.

In the sky, MiG fighters swept past the armored front, and Mao Xiong's air force concept was to maintain air superiority [-] kilometers in front of the armored impact group.Clear obstacles for ground swarms.

And above the vast number of tanks, the Kirov III airship moved along with it. In this air unit cabin weighing thousands of tons, enough bombs were hoarded, and at the same time, it was soaked in nutrient solution, the latest type brainwave transmitter.

The base car drove to the area near the front line for [-] kilometers and quickly expanded.The metal of electromagnetic memory, like origami unfolds, rapidly expands into a huge building.

Its huge robotic arm stretches around, the ground clods are heated by hot-melting equipment, and the cube barriers of metal skeletons and composite materials are installed, which are the most common "piles" in the construction of Saibei Power, and then the construction machine of Saibei Power. , then insert the steel plate, put the Tesla motor and other equipment into it, and install the production line. Soon these cutting-edge chariot factories will rise up near the main base.

In the follow-up, the Trans-Siberian Railway will transport more materials.

……

Talos.

More than 1000 years ago, the Tang Dynasty and the Arab Empire fought a war in this area.Datang was defeated, confirming that he had reached the strategic limit.Continued eastward expansion also reached the limit.

The terrain of this place is in the area southwest of Lake Bash in the overworld.

This is the main world, the lake that was like a moat in the northwest at the time of its heyday, and at that time Ile House was not on the border of the rooster.Rather, it is in a centered position.

If it is such a border, if you have to guard the exits of several mountain passes in Altai, you can firmly control the entire border defense, because no one can cross the mountain to enter, so why let the main plane guard the soldiers and soldiers of the previous era Bandits who sneaked in from the outside circled the Gobi Desert.

This plane Shenzhou actually completes territorial control according to this terrain.

Let's put it this way, starting from Chang'an and entering the Western Regions directly through the Hetao corridor, it will merge into the Tocharo Basin in the south and the Junggar Basin in the north.

Because the atmospheric circulation goes from the Mediterranean Sea and the Caspian Sea, this series of ancient Mediterranean relics, will be blocked by the terrain of the Altai Mountains and produce richer precipitation, forming a large river.This is why the northern part of the Western Regions is more prosperous than the southern part (Taxi Mu Basin).

Continuing to the west, it is the exit south of the Yibo Sea - Talos.For Shenzhou people, this is a completely unfamiliar area outside.

In Wei Keng's eyes, the psychological expectation is to clear the control line, but the Chinese warriors in this world see farther when they look at the map.

Continuing to move westward along the ancient Silk Road, there is only a Turan Plain separated from the Persian Plateau further west.

To the south of Turan is the most famous imperial cemetery. The mountainous terrain completely separates it from South Asia; to the west is the Caspian Sea; to the northeast is the border of Eastern Europeans.

If nothing else, Shenzhou always wants to go out west here, which is equivalent to inserting a thorn in the back waist of Maozi going south to the Indian Ocean.

This is also the reason why the Rakshasa Kingdom of the main plane forced the Qing court to redefine the northwestern border in modern times, because at that time the Qing Dynasty's territory in the Western Regions was too perfect.The gate is guarded, and the forces in the area can be attacked or defended.

……

And now, it is precisely because of this geographical advantage that the offense and defense have given the soldiers from Shenzhou to the Shenjing to the Western Regions to provoke frontier provocations at the front!

When the Shenzhou Forward Army arrived in the Turan Plain, the time was September 9.

Under the shooting of the front-end reconnaissance plane, the pure steel shell of a large number of rhino tanks has been very clear.Murong Xi, the general soldier of the Western Regions, dismissed this kind of broken copper and iron, thinking that these were broken copper and iron.

Indeed, in the main world, armored troops with pure steel shells can now be easily penetrated by a concentrated armor-piercing bullet to a depth of one meter. Filled with steel.

However, the strange physical situation of this plane has led to the emergence of a lot of black technology. Well, as long as it is "enough to kill", it can be played.

For example, burn the molten iron to red, strengthen its bond energy strength in the electromagnetic field, make it hundreds of times, and then launch (transfer) the state of the molten iron to the front tank shell!With such reinforcement, the Iron Curtain shatters any kinetic energy projectiles that come into contact with it.

[When the Shenzhou camp was bidding for the defense system, this technology once bid with the strong electromagnetic deflection technology, but in the end, this technology will overheat the inside of the tank, and may even cause various unfavorable factors such as suffocation of personnel. Being abandoned, it is obvious that the Soviet-based science is more daring. 】

When Murong Xi (commander) determined the enemy's forward position, he immediately ordered his group's armored forces to conduct an assault.

The Qilin main battle tank and the white tiger heavy artillery group began to sprint to meet him following his telegram.But he didn't seem to think that such an action would repeat Talas 1000 years ago.

Because the main target he tried to attack was just a lure of the Soviet army.

At this time, on Kukov's combat map, it was waiting for the troops to come out of the defensive corridor of the Western Regions of China to stretch out too much and cut them off.

Six hours later, when China believed that it had controlled the air superiority over the Turan Plain, a large number of stainless steel war eagles with a speed of two Mach appeared on the radar scan of the early warning aircraft from high altitudes in the north. These fighter groups approached quickly and unified. A large number of missiles were released.

In the sky, China's first-generation Phoenix fighter planes inevitably collided with the Soviet air force and were consumed in less than 10 minutes.

At the same time, as the Soviet heavy tanks rolled south, Shenzhou's northern line defense, four heavy artillery chariots, and the big white tiger guns quickly turned to carry out fire strikes, but these tanks were not damaged at all in the smoke, and they were still rolling in the smoke. Before, the dark red light, like the eyes of evil spirits in the smoke, kept approaching from the horizon.

August 9,
The Battle of New Tales was lost.A whole heavy armored army was attacked by the armored force of the Soviet army several times, and had to flee towards the southern Kandahar area, and then to South Asia.

But this army can retreat, but the Western Regions area has become extremely empty due to the lack of corps.Small and large business news (newspaper) carried out various anxious discussions on this.

The original main battle faction is now in an uproar.

Before the war, China's science and technology department believed that the armored force of the powerful Saibei country with backward and very imperfect information technology seemed to be huge, but it would collapse at a touch.

A kind of mental chip was implanted on the helmets of the non-commissioned officers of the Soviet Army, which made the command of the grass-roots Saibei strong country company very flexible, and these non-commissioned officers could undertake skills and become versatile.

For example, on the battlefield, after some vehicles lose their combat capability due to some minor problems, these non-commissioned officers can guide the mobilized soldiers to repair them, and then sit in and let the vehicles restart.

September 9, 13:[-] am.

The huge anti-gravity Kirov airship arrived at the Zhaowu Fortress.

Two-ton gliding bombs fell from the airship and continued to destroy the defensive front. The defenders of the Zhaowu Fortress could only rely on the construction vehicles of the base, taking advantage of the gaps between the firepower and building barriers to stop the Soviet army from advancing. .

The situation was very critical, and the defenders in front sent messages to Shenjing three times an hour to seek support.And the gods in Shenjing have carried out a new round of dumping the blame on this matter!The officials wrote: This border provocation was condoned by some people in the cabinet.

Of course, the big figure in the cabinet did not expect that the situation would suddenly erode to such an extent.In his heart: Originally, it was just a small disturbance in the frontier fortress, and with the help of the military affairs of the Western Regions, he came to show off the business travelers in Guanzhong.But now the military affairs in the Western Regions have collapsed directly, and the entire Western Regions are facing the risk of being poured into war.

Once this happens, the downfall will become an inevitable thing!

At this time, the original radical main war faction in the cabinet is now somewhat difficult to ride a tiger.

It's just that we can't end the war first because of love, and this matter should be brought up by someone else!For example, those famous Kanto families who invested too much in the Western Regions.Therefore, under the instigation of the cabinet, the official newspaper of the day was still "The fortress of Zhaowu is indestructible, and the emperor and the queen will bless our army to win."

But at night, Xu Gen and Xu Ge were awakened by the new news.

The reinforcements in Mobei are rushing to support the Western Regions. The chief officer leading the team is Wei Keng. Oh, and now he has been temporarily promoted to deputy general.The newly appointed chief of the Ministry of War passed the general cabinet meeting and signed the order first.

However, Xu Gen didn't say much about the matter. At this time, the newly appointed head of the Ministry of War made him avoid it by three points.After getting out of bed and changing clothes, he seemed to be worried for the country and said, "I hope this war can be ended soon."

……

Thousands of miles away, among the heavy-duty trains galloping on the railway, Wei Keng and the officers in the Longyan combat armor repeatedly discussed the timing while looking at the map.

When someone talks about a quick end to the war,

Wei Keng immediately cut off his own talk in this regard: "End the war? After the fight, don't think about it. The war can only be actively prepared before the war and do everything possible to avoid it."
