Chapter 752: Catching Turtles in a Jar (5) It is a helpless choice because Yao Yi must dig and deploy defenses two hundred kilometers away in order to keep it secret. However, if he digs too early near the Russian railway line, he will

Expose the target. Therefore, the only thing Yao Yi can do with his entire defense is to build a fifty-meter-deep underground transportation channel along the southern shore of Lake Baikal during the time he occupies this area. It is impossible to build a traffic channel a few meters above the surface.

Build fortifications wherever possible, otherwise, once the enemy finds out, all previous efforts will be in vain.

The main reason why it is said to be the best choice is because of Lake Baikal. With it, if the Russian army reacts too quickly and cannot complete the construction of fortifications along Lake Baikal as planned, there will still be Lake Baikal to resist the Russian army's flight.

So, from this aspect, this is the best choice.

For Russia, both their commander-in-chief of the Far East Theater and their supreme commander were the most responsive. When they discovered that Ulan-Ude had been miraculously occupied by Yao Yi's army, they immediately ordered the rear troops to attack Ulan-Ude.

Lanwud attacks.

In two days, they did not conquer it. Instead, they found that Yao Yi's army was getting larger and larger. At this time, what Yao Yi could do was to completely seal all the channels leading to Lake Baikal and build a

Ten kilometers wide defense fortifications. However, on the southern shore of Lake Baikal, in addition to the underground transportation channels that had already been constructed, only a few lines of defense could only be built in a hurry, and the Russian army soon discovered these defense loopholes of Yao Yi.

, so he moved his troops westward and launched wave after wave of attacks on the defenses along Lake Baikal. At this time, the two million reinforcements coming from the direction of Irkutsk also began to attack the coast of Lake Baikal and the overall defense system.

At the junction of the fortified areas, they launched an attack, hoping to tear a channel from the southernmost end of Lake Baikal and allow their army to break out along the lake.

The Russians have a good idea, but Yao Yi is not stupid. He understands that in addition to taking the city of Ulan-Ude and breaking out from the east of Lake Baikal, the only choice is to break out at the southernmost tip of Lake Baikal.

, once they break through, they can enter Irkutsk, because that is the closest place to Irkutsk.

If they can't break out from this place, they will have to choose the place where Yao Yi's defense is weakest, break the defense on the south bank of Lake Baikal, and break out through Lake Baikal.

Because Lake Baikal will freeze in November, it is still possible to abandon heavy equipment and cross Lake Baikal on foot.

Of course, all this is just speculation, and in the process of advancing westward, the Russian army destroyed the temporary defenses built by Yao Yi with powerful force, and a large number of Yao Yi's defenders had to retreat westward, defending step by step.

, At the same time, Yao Yi had already seen the intention of the Russian army, so nearly six million troops were deployed at the southernmost point of Lake Baikal, and other armies were still receiving continuous reinforcements. During the battle, Yao Yi

The army is still expanding trenches to both sides and expanding the defensive zone from the original ten kilometers to twenty kilometers, making it basically difficult for the Russian army to move forward.

One after another extremely tragic battles started without interruption. The Russian army could be said to have taken turns to attack, not giving Yao Yi's army any chance to breathe. The good thing is that Yao Yi's army could get more rest and at least wear cotton clothes.

, can rest in a cave fifty meters deep, and also have enough food supply.

At this time, the Russian army is in misery. Since Ulan-Ude was cut off, their food supply has been interrupted, and the supply of weapons and equipment has also been interrupted. This means that in the near future, the Russian army will fight hungry.

What makes them even more worried is that Lake Baikal has just entered October and is getting colder day by day. When they entered Outer Mongolia, they were wearing autumn military uniforms. However, the weather here will be as long as the Siberian cold wave comes.

It's enough to drop by more than ten degrees, and the temperature drops even more at night.

In this regard, Yao Yi had already prepared a large amount of warm clothes to ensure that the soldiers did not get cold. The Russian army should be more familiar with their weather and should stock up on winter uniforms.

To be honest, they do have some reserves, and a lot of them, in every city. However, the soldiers do not wear them on their bodies, let alone carry them with them. As for Irkutsk and Ulan-Ude, as well as foreign countries

The cotton-padded clothes in Mongolia had already been completely burned by Yao Yi's army. More importantly, this year's cold wave came half a month earlier than in previous years. As long as it does not fall below zero degrees Celsius, the clothes worn by these troops can completely withstand it.

The wind is cold. Besides, the Russians are procrastinating in doing things. They only start to do things at the final stage. They do not prepare in advance like the Chinese. According to convention, they only start to distribute cotton-padded clothes and other supplies when the weather is severely cold.

When they entered Outer Mongolia, it was still autumn in September. When October entered, the cotton-padded clothes had not arrived yet, and they were surrounded by Yao Yi. At this time, they had difficulty even eating. How could they still think about the cotton-padded clothes?

What about things.

Even if you think about it, you can't transport it in, because the railway lines from Europe to Siberia and the Far East are occupied by Yao Yi. The only ones that can be dispatched are Russian transport planes. However, Yao Yi has already deployed air defense forces to intercept them along the way.

It is impossible for a Russian transport plane to bring in, and Yao Yi will not allow a cotton coat or grain to be brought in. Otherwise, it would not be called a siege.

At this time, the only way for Russia is to open a channel. As long as one channel is opened, they will be completely rescued.

However, with Yao Yi's strong reserve of troops, coupled with the fortifications and rockets coming from all directions, how could the Russian army break through this line of defense?

Although Russian ballistic missiles came to help and bombed Yao Yi's position indiscriminately, it would not have any effect. After all, it was a 20-kilometer-wide defensive position. Let alone 20 kilometers, it was the original ten kilometers.

In the defensive position, Russian ballistic missiles have no effect. In addition, the number of these ballistic missiles is limited. Even if part of the fortifications are destroyed, Yao Yi's ground-evading machine can still be repaired quickly.

The most suitable way to do this is to use strategic bombers. However, Yao Yi's air defense capabilities are so powerful that even the United States' stealth fighters cannot break through his air defense system. What's more, Russia's strategic bombers have no way to compare with the United States.

, we can only retreat to the European part and dare not come out.

The war was going on crazily, and in the blink of an eye, a month passed. The Russian army still made no progress at all, and the two sides were in a stalemate.
