Australian Storm 1876 - Chapter 1082
Chapter 1082 Chapter 1089 Send troops to Vladivostok
Mid-June
A squadron of the Ocean Empire forcibly broke into the northern port of Vladivostok, and then sent troops to land, immediately occupied the Siberia Governor’s Palace and the Vladivostok fortress headquarters, detained the fortress commander Lieutenant General Vladimir in his hands, and ordered Russia through him. Soldiers put down their guns and completed control of the port of Vladivostok.
“I strongly protest that your military action is a blatant act of aggression against allies. Tsarist Russia is a member of the Entente, and you must bear serious consequences for what you have done.” Lieutenant General Vladimir was furious and shouted loudly. shouted.
“Excuse me, General Vladimir, our actions are just to help the Russian allies control the situation, and we have to do it.”
“You should deceive a three-year-old with such words. It is ridiculous to call aggression as help. The Russians can solve their own problems without your hypocritical goodwill.”
“Then may I ask, are you loyal to the Duma government or the workers’ government?”
“This… This is our internal affairs, and it has nothing to do with you.”
“No no no… General Vladimir, we know that you are a traditional Belarusian nobleman who is extremely loyal to the Tsarist Russian royal family, and would never want to see Tsarist Russia fall into the current state of anarchy, with millions of Russian troops fighting on the Eastern Front. The Germans were **** slaughtered, with no bullets in their guns and no food in their stomachs, the Romanov dynasty, to which the soldiers were loyal, was overthrown by a group of anarchists, and this huge empire is falling into the abyss.” Ma Chang regretted said.
He stood in the luxurious palace-style dome hall of the Siberian Governor’s Palace, looking out through the tall oval, a fleet was slowly docking on the dock, and a large number of heavily armed imperial soldiers poured out of the boat.
This is the main force of the 119th Division (Guilin Division) landing, with a total of more than 24,000 people, which will further expand the scope of military control over Vladivostok.
On the cargo ship on the other side of the dock, armored tanks and half-tracked vehicles are being lifted and unloaded. These armored combat vehicles with strong off-road performance are very suitable for the vast wilderness of Siberia.
Seeing that everything was going well, Lieutenant General Ma Chang showed a smile on his mouth, turned to look at the Siberian Governor Kontsevsky and General Vladimir and other important military and political officials, and continued;
“Look, neither the current Duma government nor the workers’ government will allow a tsarist governor to rule Siberia, they just have no time to take care of remote areas.
Those who are keen to compete for power in St. Petersburg have tossed the huge empire that once shocked the whole of Europe to pieces, and the people are struggling.
Only after the troubles in Europe have been resolved will there be time to deal with you.
As allies, and the two Grand Duchess Taziana and Maria are about to marry into the imperial royal family.
In view of the chaotic situation in Tsarist Russia and the disrespect for members of the royal family, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the marriage of the two female grand duchesses and the dignity of the Romanov dynasty, the empire should take strong measures, which should be fully understood.
Mr. Governor, General Vladimir, and everyone here, on behalf of the Empire, I officially welcome the Tsarist royal family, and when necessary, go into exile in the Ocean Empire, including you all.
After achieving the expected purpose, the imperial army will be evacuated from Vladivostok. We have no territorial ambitions for this extremely cold Siberia. I can guarantee this.
So during this period, I hope to get your full cooperation. ”
Speaking of this
Lieutenant Ma Chang looked around the crowd, his eyes were full of arrogance, confidence, and a little pity.
And it was this little pity that stabbed Lieutenant General Vladimir’s heart, his heart twitched like colic, he opened his mouth, but couldn’t say anything.
The once glorious Tsarist Empire fell apart, and now the situation is chaotic. The Siberia region has not been paid for more than half a year. The soldiers can only eat one meal of black bread mixed with sawdust every day, and their life is difficult.
It is now late June, and in early September, the Siberian cold snap will freeze for thousands of miles, entering a long and severe winter, and the snow will not melt until April next year.
And now
The warehouse of the Vladivostok fortress is empty, and there is no stock of supplies for the winter. How can we survive this long and severe winter?
Siberia Governor Kontsevsky forced a smile on his face and said in a relaxed tone;
“Your Excellency General, I welcome you on behalf of the Siberian Governorate. As allies of the Allied Powers, your troops are stabilizing the situation in Crimea and Western Ukraine, and the same is true here.
I personally do not agree with the illegal coup d’etat taking place in St. Petrograd. I remain loyal to His Majesty the Tsar, and regard the Romanov Dynasty as the only legal regime in Tsarist Russia. Many gentlemen here hold the same opinion as I do.
Therefore, we will try our best to cooperate to maintain the situation in the Far East.
But the top priority now is that we urgently need a lot of winter supplies, especially food and winter clothing.
As you know, winter in Siberia is very long. ”
“Mr. Governor, I will convey your appeal to the Empire, and I believe it will be answered soon.” Lieutenant General Ma Chang could not agree to this kind of non-military issue, and he politely expressed his willingness to convey it.
The Ocean Empire has no shortage of cold-proof materials. There are all kinds of wool coats, sheepskin jackets, and sheepskin hats.
Food is hard to say. This stuff is very in short supply right now. The war in Europe has been scorched by thousands of miles. In the past few years, there has been no time for food to be prosperous.
Squeeze a little and support the Vladivostok border area a little, and it can still be done.
Vladivostok Branch of the People’s Bank of Saudi Arabia
This is a three-story stone building with Russian characteristics, tall and strong, with exquisite carvings. It is located on the main road in the urban area of Vladivostok and is the largest bank here.
Major General Fei Aiguo, commander of 119 Division, led a motor transport battalion of thousands of soldiers and more than 100 vehicles and half-track armored vehicles, and surrounded the streets near the bank.
The fat Russian manager of the National Bank greeted him with sweat on his face. Major General Fei Aiguo didn’t talk nonsense with him. He led his officers and soldiers directly into the bank’s bright hall, and then asked, “Where is the treasury?”
“This… Your Honorable General, this seems to be against the rules?”
“Don’t talk to me about these useless things. As long as you are not stupid, you should know that our actions are derived from the will of the empire. Any behavior that blocks the car is just asking for death. Either you take us in now or kill you. , and another person will bring us in, giving you three seconds to think about it.”
“Anthracene, God, please come with me.” The fat Russian manager did not have the courage to confront at all, let alone risk his own life, so he chose to cooperate wisely.
“You guys come in with me, and the others stay on guard.”
Major General Fei Aiguo nodded and commanded, and then waved his hand, and a dozen officers around him followed, and the other soldiers with guns and live ammunition dispersed to guard.
The vault is in the basement below the bank, open the heavy steel explosion-proof door, go down the stairs for dozens of steps, and then enter a long and narrow corridor, all of which are made of heavy boulders and look very strong.
There is also a heavy-duty explosion-proof door, which is a round all-steel explosion-proof door imported from Ocean Empire, with a thickness of 355 mm, which can withstand the frontal bombardment of a 305 mm cannon.
After opened it and entered it, he was dazzled by a bright golden light.
There are piles of large gold bricks neatly stacked in the vault, each pile is half a person high, and there are hundreds of piles at a glance. This scene is really shocking.
The 560 tons of Tsarist Russian gold that Li Fushou, the emperor of the Ocean Empire, thought about, was neatly stacked in front of him.
Even with Major General Fei Aiguo’s extensive knowledge, he was briefly absent-minded, not to mention a large number of officers under his command, who involuntarily let out a chorus of exclamations.
is really this golden brick, which is too shocking.
“Dear General, not only 560 tons of gold are stored here, but also some of the gold stored by other customers of the bank, the amount is 36.2 tons, I hope…”
“Okay, you can go to the Empire with the warship that transports gold, and take all your property with you. I don’t need to remind you about the rest.”
“Oh… well, thank you for your kindness.” At this moment, the fat Russian manager had nothing else to say.
Major General Fei Aiguo didn’t hesitate at all, he waved his hand and said, “This batch of gold is the property of the empire, and there must be no mistakes in the order. Start moving it now.
“Follow orders!”
All the officers answered in unison, and immediately began to direct the soldiers to carry the gold.
This huge batch of gold was originally an imperial asset, and the materials pledged with it had been delivered to Russia, and the Russian old man had been delaying the delivery of gold for one reason or another.
The reason for the dispatch of troops to Vladivostok this time is because of this part of the gold, and the subsequent thousands of tons of Tsarist Russia gold, the empire can use every means to get it in the name of debt repayment.
The second is to marry two female grand dukes and establish a connection channel in the Far Eastern Territory.
Try to avoid the tragic ending of the death of Tsar Nicholas II and his family in the original history. Whether Tsar Nicholas II is willing to go into exile in the empire or in the UK, as long as he successfully arrives in Vladivostok, everything will be in the hands of the empire.
With such a righteous name, you can justifiably intervene in the situation of Tsarist Russia. This is a move that is planned in advance.
Of course, the Ocean Empire will not work in vain. Even if the tsar wants to go into exile in Europe, he must first keep the gold in the hands of Belarus. There are still three pounds of iron nails in the rotten ship, not to mention the huge Romanov Dynasty?
This move will not lose from any point of view, and it will be a steady gain.
