Chapter 1124

Qingzhou.

Xiao Ming and Qi Guangyi are at Qingzhou station watching the steam locomotives carrying Bear King tanks heading for Raozhou.

After the first tank officially passed the acceptance, Xiao Ming asked the tank factory to put into production immediately, and at the same time increased the production line to enable the imperial army to equip at least 500 Bear King tanks.

In addition to 200 tanks equipped with the central army, the other 500 tanks were delivered to the northwest army.

Although the tsarist Russia suffered heavy setbacks in Siberia and continued to retreat to the Ural Mountains, the losses to the tsarist Russia during this period were not very great. After all, Siberia was only equivalent to the border area of the tsarist Russia.

Central Asia is the strategic area that can really threaten the hinterland of Czarist Russia. Therefore, during this period, the northwest army has been fighting with the Cossack cavalry of Czarist Russia in Central Asia.

However, although the northwest army had an absolute advantage in weapons and equipment, it sometimes suffered some hidden losses in the face of a large number of Cossack cavalry.

A month ago, a ten member patrol team of the northwest army was ambushed by more than 300 Russian Cossack cavalry during its inspection.

After the bloody battle, only one person fled back to the northwest army camp. The other nine people's lives and deaths were unknown, and their weapons and horses disappeared without a trace.

It was because of this incident that Xiao Ming decided to launch a surprise attack on tsarist Russia and completely abolish its Cossack cavalry. Otherwise, the anxiety of the northwest army in Central Asia would continue.

The protagonist of this war was the tanks that the Empire had just equipped. Through this campaign, he wanted to make tsarist Russia completely dare not set foot in Central Asia and honestly stay in Eastern Europe.

"Emperor, with this sharp weapon, he vowed to wash away the humiliation of the northwest army." Qi Guangyi said that this incident made him feel pale.

Xiao Ming said lightly: "you don't have to blame yourself for this matter. The imperial army is brave and good at fighting, but it's also a human, not a God. As long as people make mistakes, you don't have to worry too much about the time when they don't lose their equipment."

Qi Guangyi was moved. Xiao Ming's understanding made him feel at ease.

After a pause, Xiao Ming continued: "what's more, even if these guns are taken away, they can't imitate without industrial base."

"That's true." Qi Guangyi was relieved, "but even so, for the sake of the interests of the Empire, we should teach tsarist Russia a lesson. At present, the only remaining threat to the Empire in the north is it."

Xiao Ming nodded.

This time, he came to deliver the tank to instruct Qi Guangyi. Last time, he set his goal, so from now on, he will achieve it step by step.

Tsarist Russia is also one of his goals. In order to eliminate the potential of tsarist Russia to become a regional power, he is going to dismember this country, just as he is going to dismember a European power.

Big countries become smaller, which will make the threat to Europe smaller. Even if they reunite in the future, it will take a long time.

"For the benefit of the Empire." Xiao Ming said involuntarily.

"For the benefit of the Empire." Qi Guangyi repeated, his eyes firm.

At this time, the steam engine locomotive started slowly. Qi Guangyi boarded the locomotive and saluted Xiao Ming again.

After a salute, Xiao Ming watched the steam locomotive disappear at the end of the railway. At this time, he left the station and took the bus back to the palace.

"There's one America left."

When he came to the imperial study, Xiao Ming made a mark on the map of tsarist Russia. At this time, he looked at North America.

In this era, the United States was just founded, and the areas it could control were only the thirteen states of North America, and more land in North America was occupied by Indians.

If the process of history continues, the United States will wipe out the Indians in North America and become the most powerful country in North America.

Qian Dafu served Xiao Ming. He said, "now Zhu Sansi is in Alaska, across from the United States, there is another area called Canada, which is quite troublesome."

Xiao Ming said with a smile, "this is no trouble at all. On the contrary, Canada will become a springboard for the Empire to attack the United States."

Historically, Canada used to be the residence of Indians and Inuit. In the 16th century, Canada became a colony of France and became new France by the French.

In contemporary history, Canada was defeated by the British in the seven-year war between Britain and France, but in this era, the British were hanged by Xiao Ming, and the butterfly of history made Canada still in the hands of France.

"But at present Canada belongs to France, and the Empire has signed an armistice." Qian Dafu didn't understand.

Xiao Ming's smile is more intense. "The agreement signed by the empire is only suitable for the current Andre administration. Once the Andre administration falls, the Empire will not have to admit the above agreements. Then east Indochina and Canada will be empires."

Qian Dafu was clear, "that's why the emperor supports Henry. If so, we can not only get benefits from the agreement, but also get the two largest colonies in France."

"That's right. It's equivalent to getting French compensation and South America, Africa's mineral rich colonial region without abandoning a single soldier." A sharp light flashed in Xiao Ming's eyes."But what if Henry goes back after he overthrows Andre?"

"As long as Henry's head is not broken, he will not dare to declare war on the Empire, because he understands the power of the Empire. Moreover, this is one of the conditions I promised to support him." Xiao Ming said.

"If so, the Empire will expand again," he said

With a slight nod, Xiao Ming sits down in his chair. Now he is waiting for four things. The first is Persia's defeat of Ottoman, the second is Qi Guangyi's defeat of tsarist Russia, the third is the voice of the British domestic independence movement, and the fourth is Henry's formal face tearing with Andre.

Unfortunately, these areas are so far away from the empire that it takes a year and a half to hear from them every time.

However, with the orderly development of the Empire, his days are more leisurely, and his leisure time is always easy to be spent.

On July 30, the sixth year of the Empire, he received the first good news. After three months of training, the Persian army began to enter the areas occupied by the Ottoman Empire to launch a counterattack against the Ottoman Empire, and the war between the two countries began to turn from one side to the other.

According to the news, the casualties between the two sides were great, but the imperial equipment and Persian equipment were slightly better, and Osman was driven out of Persian territory step by step.

And three months later, the British envoy Brooke came to Qingzhou again, along with Henry's official break with Andre.

However, when the news reached him, the imperial fleet had sailed to France and handed over the equipment and materials promised to Henry to his youth army.
