Chapter 713 The New Three Kingdoms of the Far East
While everyone is still paying attention to the European battlefield, no one would have thought that the real war that will affect the world situation is about to begin in the Far East. (No., pop-up window...
In fact, we can’t blame everyone. In everyone’s mind, Europe is the most economically and technologically developed region in the world. With so many countries focusing on developing their own region, it is several times stronger than the United States and China. And once this country is separated,
Victory or defeat means that the future situation of the world has begun to become clear. However, they have not considered, or have not thought about, that a truly large-scale war depends on the foundation, the comprehensive foundation. During World War II, Japan and Germany
The scientific and technological strength of each country can be said to be strong, but the national foundation is too weak, which is the root of the final failure. Therefore, the three major powers at war in the Far East are the real wars that affect the world situation. Of course, in South America and Africa,
There are also two huge countries that are slowly expanding. However, these two states have always been easily ignored because they are underdeveloped areas.
On the morning of October 20th, China time, the confrontation in the Far East took the following form:
The Japanese and South Korean armies that first suddenly took advantage of the opportunity have completely occupied Sakhalin Island. Now neither China nor Russia has the time or energy to "take care" of these two countries. However, with the connivance of China, North and South Korea have already
The confrontation began; but Russia began to detach a fleet to confront the coalition forces of the two countries at sea.
In the Bering Strait, neither the United States nor Russia has been able to occupy any bit of land on either side, or it is not worth occupying. In this era when the range of artillery can easily reach tens of kilometers or dozens of kilometers, a small island several kilometers in size is really worthless.
It's useless. There is no difference between the people above and those in the coffin. Therefore, everyone mainly needs to eliminate the other party's vitality. Now the two sides have formed an all-round confrontation in the air, at sea, under the sea and in space. Every day, the sea water is full of
Red.
The most difficult thing for Russia is China. Under the attack of China, which is known as the world's largest army, coupled with the long and weak transportation lines, and the harassment of other countries, Russia has begun to show signs of failure.
China North has completely controlled all the territory within the Outer Xing'an Mountains, including of course the two Russian railways, which have been completely cut off. From now on, all supplies in the Far East can only be transported by sea ships! Habarovsk has already
Not to mention the complete change of ownership, it also became China's sharp sword, pointing at Komsomolsk, leaving one of Russia's Far East hubs on the verge of collapse.
And now, Komsomolsk has become one of the two major command centers in the Russian Far East: the other one is of course Vladivostok. The other deputy command center is Uelen on Cape Zeoniov in the Bering Strait, which is also the Russian
The cities or towns in the far east are of course also military hubs.
Of course Uelen is in confrontation with the United States, so only Komsomolsk and Vladivostok are in confrontation with China. But the current situation is very unsatisfactory. Without the lifeline of the railway, Komsomolsk can only rely on Heilongjiang
(Amur River) support. However, it is already late October and ice has begun to appear on the river. It seems that the river will be frozen for at least half a month. It is estimated that people will be able to walk on the river in a month. By then transportation will be
Not a small problem.
Now, due to the exchange of fire between the two countries, it is basically difficult for ships to pass through the Bering Strait. Basically 60% of Russian transport ships will be sunk. In this way, it is still because Russia has paid a large amount of navy to escort. It is just not like this.
Not to mention, without supplies, these navies are just waiting to surrender!
As for transporting supplies from the south of Asia through the Strait of Malacca to here, Russia has never thought about it. If it is peacetime, it will be fine; but at this time, let alone the long distance, there are too many variables. First, Russia wants to transport from the center of the West.
Supplies can only depart from the north of Europe, that is, the north of Sweden and Norway. Because the Baltic Sea has been jointly blockaded by Germany and other countries, no warships can get out, let alone supply ships!
It is possible to get out of the Bosporus Strait in the Black Sea. After all, there is still a melee there. With its strong force, Russia can still send some supply ships. But beyond the Black Sea, there is also the Mediterranean! Take the Suez Canal? Dream on
! Not to mention that the transportation volume of the canal is too small, it is just the melee there, and the threat of being far away from Russia, good things will definitely be blocked. Egypt is not a small country, and it is also a local rich man in Africa.
Got it!
Going through the Strait of Gibraltar? The UK and Spain are still fighting, and the strait is now considered an informal blockade. If Russia wants to rush out, it should be possible now. After all, both the UK and Spain are still counting on Russia to hold Germany back.
.It’s just that the journey here is too far, and it can be said that it is not worth considering in this current war against time.
And even if you succeed here, there is still another checkpoint next - the Strait of Malacca! Here, it is definitely a half-China special event. The entrance is very close to the Kra Isthmus controlled by China, and you will be sent directly to China.
Under the muzzle. If we continue to go south and take the Lombok Strait, we still don’t talk about the distance, but the Philippines has basically become China’s private battlefield, and many places have been blocked. Not to mention that the Philippines to the east is either the United States or Japan.
Controlling the sea area is simply taking the initiative!
To sum up, now Russia can only support the Far East through the Bering Strait. But this price is too high, the direct cost is four or five times as much as normal, not to mention various invisible costs. It’s just that
Of course, it is even more impossible not to provide support to the Far East! Once the barrier of the Far East is lost, China and the United States will definitely be able to advance their troops to the vicinity of Lake Baikal in an instant, which is equivalent to Russia losing at least one-fifth of its territory. And China is strong
, then Mongolia is definitely a loser, needless to say. With the help of Mongolia, China can easily push the enemy to the junction of China, Russia and Kazakhstan, directly causing Russia to lose more than half of its territory. This is absolutely
is not allowed.
But now, the situation in the Far East is really not good for Russia. With 100,000 square kilometers, the area near Vladivostok can be regarded as China for a while. After all, it is no less developed by Russia than the northeastern region of China. It’s just that
The area is small and the resources are limited. But it doesn't matter in a short time. And here in the Bering Strait, Russia can provide direct support, so it seems there will be no problem.
However, the combination of these two places, plus the two little jackals who took advantage of the situation, made Russia miserable. In addition, Komsomolsk was in danger and faced the threat of China's air force every day. Occasionally, there would be lasers landing in space.
, destroying some radar facilities, making the entire Russian Far East region like a frying pan on fire, it is only a matter of time before it catches fire!
The current situation in the Far East is like the Three Kingdoms in ancient China. It's just that in these three countries, the three parties are evenly matched, and two parties have joined forces to attack a country with poor transportation and logistics. In the eyes of the Russians, it is really a bit of a bully!
In a short period of time, they could not take care of the Sakhalin issue. In order to prevent the barrier in the Far East from being destroyed, Russia had to resort to all the tricks. Three aircraft carriers and corresponding battle groups set off from the White Sea in the north of Russia.
But after all, water far away cannot quench our thirst. The estimated arrival time is 6.52 days. This is the time of sailing at full speed without stopping on the road! And this speed calculation formula is calculated based on the speed of 36 knots. In fact, because of the huge size of the aircraft carrier
, cannot sail continuously at high speed, and the actual arrival time is definitely more than 7 days. This is simply a standard afterthought!
However, in this case, Russia also took action. Hundreds of planes took off directly from the west of the Ural Mountains, carrying a large amount of important supplies. Although the cost was too high to be calculated, it was still better than the defeat in the Far East.
too much.
In fact, this kind of support is not much more than expected. It just transports some important and good materials and ammunition. With this kind of support, Komsomolsk finally gets a breather in a short time. But such losses are not
Small. In just one transport, more than 50 aircraft were shot down by China. After all, transport aircraft accounted for most of these fleets, and their combat effectiveness was really limited. This was because such a transport suddenly appeared in Russia and China was not well prepared.
As for the second such transportation, although Russia increased its defense efforts, it still suffered more than half of the losses in the end. Hundreds of transport aircraft also suffered combat losses. Such losses have already made Russia feel painful. Fortunately, Russia
The dying counterattack also cost China more than 30 fighter jets.
Time gradually dragged on to the morning of the 21st. After a day of changes, in Europe, Germany finally began its second attack on Paris. After the so-called ideological education, the German soldiers were filled with the will to fight again. In this way, once again
attracted a lot of attention to Europe, but Asia was once again ignored, except for a few countries related to it.
Faced with the corrupt situation in the Far East, Russia had to work hard. After rigorous calculations, it finally decided to surprise the important Chinese town - Qiqi Harbin! Perhaps in the eyes of many people, a provincial capital like Harbin
It is the center of China's military power. But only by truly analyzing the deployment of military power will we find that Qiqihar is actually the real northern center of China! It can be said to be the heart of the entire Northeast China, and there are sufficient resources here.
It has a complete transportation system and a large number of talent training bases.
From Russia's perspective, as long as this place can be destroyed, at least in the Far East strategy, China will be in a semi-waste state in a short time. And as long as China cannot withdraw its hands in a short time, even if it is only 10 days, it will be enough for Russia.
Make a comeback in the Far East. In ten days, a large number of fleets will arrive; sufficient supplies will be replenished. And after the shortcomings in the early stages of the war, Russia believes that they can further expand their strategic goals in the Far East in the future.
While Russia is preparing, China is also planning Russia's most important port in the Far East - Vladivostok!
