In the battlefield in Afghanistan, Lieutenant General Patrick finally waited for a long-lost reinforcements, but before he was relieved, he received a terrible news-the Russians are about to fight.

On September 11, 1889, the Russian army conquered the Mare area. The area closest to Afghanistan is less than one hundred kilometers.

The three major Khanates of Central Asia, which had been expected by Britain to have high hopes, had been defeated across the board under the attack of the Russian army. At this moment, the governments of the three countries were exiled to Afghanistan.

After nearly a year of hard work, Lieutenant General Patrick had to admit that the Indian Colonial Army was not the material to fight.

In the case of equivalent military strength, the regular army actually failed the guerrillas, and what made people laugh at what they said now has actually happened.

Patrick was able to become the commander of the Expeditionary Army, and his political mind was not bad. To what extent the British-Russian relations are tense, he is quite clear.

Thinking of the impending British-Russian war, and then looking at the domestic reinforcements sent to him, Patrick had the urge to cry.

Up to now, the British army in Afghanistan has assembled 30 infantry divisions, 2 cavalry divisions, and 8 artillery regiments.

However, these troops are prefixed, and the situation is instantly different.

Of the 30 infantry divisions, only two infantry divisions were sent locally, and the rest were Indian colonial forces. Cavalry divisions and artillery regiments are elite locals. This is a technical armament and belongs to a job that the Indians cannot do.

However, sending so many cavalry troops into Afghanistan made me drunk. If it is not self-controlling, Lieutenant General Patrick would really like to greet the power generation, whether the gang of gents in the country are flooding their brains.

A little understanding of the terrain of Afghanistan knows that the most suitable troops here are mountain infantry divisions. There is no special organization for the British army.

As for cavalry units, in addition to acting as heralds, they can only increase the logistical pressure of the units.

The guerrillas are all in the mountains, and they only occasionally come out to do things. The big cavalry has no use here at all.

Nor can it be said that it is completely useless, as long as the British army defeated the Russians, the cavalry was the main force when countering Central Asia.

Regrettably, Lieutenant General Patrick does not need it. The exiled Central Asian Government of the Three Khanates did not come empty-handed, and there were 50,000 or 60,000 troops following.

These grassland peoples, on horseback, are born cavalry.

Frankly speaking, the Three Khanates of Central Asia were defeated so quickly. In addition to the decay of their own regime, the lack of support from the British government is also one of the core factors.

They are all hurt by bureaucracy. The weapons and equipment supported are joke. Some guns can be traced back to the last century, and the collection value is greater than the practical value.

I know that I know, but there is a lot of interest exchange hidden in it, and Lieutenant Patrick wisely chose to pretend not to see it.

Not to mention the Central Asian Khanate, in fact the weapons and equipment of the Indian Colonial Army are as usual garbage, lagging behind Europe by more than 30 years on average.

Even if it is a local main force, there is still a gap between its weapons and equipment and the world-class level.

It is not that Britain ’s military technology is poor. The key is that the army is not seen in the country. It has always been raised by the stepmother. Every year, some funds are invested in weapons research and development.

Being able to keep up with the world-class level is the result of a solid industrial foundation in Britain. If you want to go to the forefront of the times, government funding is simply not enough.

"Generate domestic power, tell London we need reinforcements, a lot of reinforcements!

If you want to defend the Afghan region, at least 20 more infantry divisions must be reinforced in the country. It must be the main force of the local army. The Indian Colonial Army will not do anything. "

The young military officer in the past exhorted: "His Commander, are there too many 20 infantry divisions? I am afraid I will not agree."

For the army powers such as Russia, Austria, and France, the 20 infantry divisions are not worth mentioning at all. With sufficient supplies, it can be put together for up to ten days and a half months.

But for Britain, the situation is terrible. To put it this way, adding all the British Army before the expansion, and multiplying by two, may not all be together.

Even because of the tension in Central Asia, the London government carried out a round of military expansion, but the British Army still has fewer than 300,000 people, and there are 17 infantry divisions in total.

The opening required 20 main infantry divisions, clearly to pack the rhythm of the British Army, but forced the British government to continue to expand the Army.

Lieutenant General Patrick shook his head: "Mal put away your careful thoughts, don't forget who our enemy is this time! Facing the Russians, how much are the 20 infantry divisions?

If you really fight, you will find that the lives on the battlefield are worthless. The Russian-Russian war is the best example, with millions of casualties on both sides.

Although this Central Asian War may not be as crazy as the Russo-Prussian War, it will not be so easy to end without filling in hundreds of thousands of lives. "

Looking at the stunned young officer, Lieutenant General Patrick just secretly sighed: the young generation in Britain is too fragile to bear the storm.

Mo said that the entire Central Asian battlefield is over. The total number of casualties in the Afghan war has exceeded one million, but most Afghans have died, and everyone does not feel deeply.

The enemies that followed were Russians. The Indian cannon fossils obviously did not stand up. The main force of the British army must be used to suppress the battle. Otherwise, it would be easy for the entire line to fail.

Judging from the experience of the first Near East War, even if the cannon fodder was sufficient, the British army must be prepared for heavy losses.

...

The British army panicked. In fact, the Russian army on the front was not much better.

It seems to have won a comprehensive victory in the Central Asian battle, but if the governments of the three countries were not completely wiped out, it is destined that the Central Asian region will not be peaceful.

If the Afghan guerrillas are drilling the ravine, then the guerrillas in Central Asia are mostly horse thieves, many of which are fighting against the Russian army in tribal units.

Admiral Oginets knew very well that the fierce resistance of the people in Central Asia was largely forced by the Russian army.

If it were not for the Russian army to go out and pillage from time to time, local resistance would not be so intense. But there is no way to know that Guizhi knows, **** determines the position of Admiral Oginets.

Russian soldiers have almost no pay, and their main income is seized on the battlefield. They are not allowed to go out for robbery. Who wants to continue their lives?

In addition, the logistics of the Russian army are also very bad. Even in the case of sufficient supplies, it can only barely manage to fill, there is no quality at all.

After eating military food for many months, my mouth has long faded out. At this time, it is a big deal to hinder the soldiers from improving their lives.

In this context, Admiral Odinets can only ignore the robbery that occurs below, and use the most brutal means to suppress the resistance movement.

Starting from the occupation of Central Asia, the Russian army executed three or four-digit resistance elements almost every day, and maintained the social order by the most stringent laws of the company.

It can also be said that there is no "order", because these orders can only restrain local people, and Russian soldiers do not have to obey at all.

In order to ensure smooth logistics and transportation, General Odinets even cleared a no man ’s land avenue, the residents within 30 kilometers around were cleared out.

As a price, Admiral Oginets also got the reputation of "General Butcher", making children cry in Central Asia.

After putting down the documents in his hand, Odinets said slowly: "After cleaning up, let's generate electricity for the country! As long as the supplies are in place, we can attack the Afghan region."

From the tone, we can know that Admiral Oginets is very helpless now. If there is a choice, he will never grab the commander's position this time.

Seemingly majestic, in fact, it is also a crisis. To win this war, Admiral Odinets offended too many people.

If you continue to win, then there is no problem, no matter how many offended people can be suppressed by the military, and become the second Marshal Ivanov.

But once the frontline changes, the situation is completely different. The reason that everyone pushes down the wall is also applicable here, and Auginets can only win and not lose.

According to the original plan, the Central Asian region was seized and then closed. Now that he has achieved fame, he returned to St. Petersburg to receive the award.

Unfortunately, the reality is cruel, and the changing international situation has inspired the tsarist government's ambition to seize India.

What General Odinets wants to do now is to complete the first step of the plan-to seize the Afghan region and lay the foundation for the future strategy of India.

The middle-aged officer did not seem to realize that Auginets was in a bad mood, and he replied happily: "Yes, Your Commander!"

Everyone is in a different location, and the scenery you see is different.

For Admiral Oginets, the title of marshal is indispensable until the war, and the best option is to close when you see it.

However, for most Russian military officers, it is still good to continue the war. It is far better to pinch the soft persimmons here than to return to the European conquest.

The Indian Colonial Army is not valuable, but they are under the British brand, if they have bad eyesight, they can be treated as the main force of the British army.

The enemy to be faced is the fighting power of the colonial army, but it can produce the military merit of the regular army. However, if it is a little bit related, at this time, we are trying to find a way to join the frontline troops.

As a front-line commander, General Odinets has sold many relationships recently.
