Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

The changes here have continuously alarmed the top leaders of both sides.

Jin Xiaoer learned the news first and ordered the offshore fleet to go to the north to find out the situation.

The Pacific Fleet in the harbor also set out to move closer to the Tujiang estuary area to find out the causes and consequences of the bridge bombing.

When we arrived at the scene, the ruins of the bridge could still be seen.

Personnel from the Tujiang Fleet are cleaning up the explosion site.

Very professional, very calm and very nonchalant.

This made Jin Xiaoer's patrol fleet at a loss as to what to say.

Colonel Han, the leading gunboat, frowned and asked what happened.

You know everything you know and can tell you everything you know.

Boldly admit that it was the Fangchuan gunboat that caused the explosion.

And is willing to bear the cost of bridge repair.

You tell me how much money it is, and I'll give it to you.

But there is one more thing to say, you can repair the bridge, but if you block my Fangchuan shallow-water heavy gunboat, continue to bomb it.

"Have you always been so arrogant?"

Colonel Han covered his forehead with his hands, looking at the 800-ton gunboat in front of him, whose guns were aimed at the North Korean inland gunboats.

The two are not of the same level, nor of the same tonnage, and they will be destroyed with one shot.

I'm afraid it will sink into the river.

"I've already apologized, what else do you want? It's blown up, it's blown up, I'll compensate you."

The Tujiang Fleet was known for admitting their mistakes, apologizing when necessary and compensating when necessary, but the Tujiang Iron Bridge had already been destroyed.

The facts are already established, what is the point in holding anyone accountable?

The Pacific Fleet in the harbor arrived a little late, and was also bewildered when they arrived at the scene. The three parties stared at each other in confusion.

It looked like a car accident scene.

Damage assessment, quotation and compensation are all done. What else do you want?

The Russians and the Kim family, who are full of anger, have no place to vent their anger.

Don't ask, the only answer is that it was an accidental operation that accidentally blew up the Tujiang Bridge.

Manchuria guarantees repair and compensation.

We are as close as three brothers, so don't bother about these little things. Repairing it will only cost a few million dollars, at most ten million dollars, and Manchuria will pay for it.

Don't let a small matter affect the harmony of the family.

The results of the investigation and the treatment plan will be reported together.

The Russians didn't take it seriously. Since the problem had been solved, they would deal with it according to the solution.

Repairs should be made where necessary, compensation should be paid where necessary, and the losses caused should be minimized as much as possible.

When the railway line was blocked, Tujiang Shipping took over and used transport ships to transport goods from north to south.

Jin Xiaoer was actually quite resentful. The Tujiang Railway Bridge was the link between him and the Russian bear, and it could lead directly to the two border regions in the north.

Ding Wei's Tujiang Fleet intervened here and broke through to the sea outlet, which was equivalent to cutting off this link in half.

They dare not speak out but are angry as there are still hundreds of thousands of Dragon Country volunteers in the territory.

At the critical moment of signing the armistice agreement, he dared not offend Ding Wei.

Make a big thing small, and a small thing nothing. Use money to resolve the dispute over the bombing of the Tujiang Railway Bridge.

Ding Wei made a lot of money. He could accomplish something with just 10 million yuan, but the profit he earned was tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions.

It is impossible to develop nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and submarines without spending billions of dollars.

Research technologies such as rockets and satellites are also advanced aerospace means that neither the Russians nor the Americans have fully mastered.

As for long-range, intercontinental missiles, hypersonic missiles, ballistic missiles, etc.

The two superpowers have some research background, but after Ding Wei obtains the complete research data, he can definitely overtake them and push Manchuria's missile technology to a new peak.

Exchanging a Tujiang Bridge for these rewards is a sure win, it's a lucrative deal.

Relying on the reward for blowing up the bridge, the Tujiang Fleet successfully expanded its fleet by 6 submarine gunboats, 6 torpedo boats, and 2 missile boats, further enhancing its near-shore combat capability.

The missile speedboat is Ding Wei's trump card for near-shore combat.

It has a fast speed and fierce firepower, similar to the light cavalry on the ancient battlefield, and is good at mobile combat.

Equipped with anti-ship missiles, it is quite threatening.

It is a threat to large ships, but as for small ships, it can be easily defeated one by one.

Taking advantage of the disappearance of the interception of the Tujiang Iron Bridge, the Tujiang Fleet boldly broke through to the coastline and carried out normal cruising.

Led by the gunboat Fangchuan, the inland fleet showed off its might and squeezed out Jin Xiaoer's inland patrol team.

The tonnage is not comparable, the number of ships is not comparable, and there are two missile speedboats. How can we fight?

The North Koreans only have four shallow-water heavy gunboats with a displacement of 4 tons. They are not even qualified to meet the Tujiang Fleet.

The railway line between Xinjing, Hunchun and Fangchuan was completed, and a batch of transport ships were transported simultaneously to open up shipping on Tujiang River.

The dozen-kilometer section downstream can accommodate transport ships of 500-2000 tons. There is also a completed port with good cargo handling capacity, which is used for trade and exchanges with the mountains.

Compared with the route from Xinjing to Tujiang, the route from the Amur River to Sugang has an additional transportation line of more than 1,000 kilometers.

The transportation route used to be in an inverted V shape, but now it is basically a straight line.

Saves a lot of transportation costs.

It makes it easier for Manchuria's industrial areas to conduct foreign trade.

There are also a large number of light industrial products that are transported via railways to the western region of the Russian Federation, where there is a huge market demand.

The Russian Federation is good at heavy industry but relatively weak in light industry, so its light industrial products are relatively scarce.

There are also restrictions on sales and purchases.

Just a bar of soap shipped from Manchuria could fetch a good profit.

Of course, there is no need for foreign trade now. Just supplying Arnov's military orders is enough to keep us busy for a while.

The order, worth 8 million rubles, will be used to modernize and mechanize more than 20 troops.

The total strength of the former Second Far Eastern Front was just over 20 troops, and this was the only force that Anov could control.

It is imperative to improve their combat effectiveness in order to gain a firm foothold.

Only then can you take the lead among the three commanders.

While equipping his own troops, Arnoff did something strange again and proposed to streamline the troops.

It was believed that the logistical pressure of maintaining one million troops in the Far East was very great and required a huge amount of military supplies. In addition to relying on railway supplies, it could only rely on Manchuria.

In addition to deepening cooperation with Ding Wei, it is also necessary to streamline the garrison troops.

According to the current situation, after the war on the peninsula is over, only 40 to 50 troops will be needed, which is enough to take on border defense tasks.

The main focus of the operation is not to deal with the Dragon Kingdom, which is like a good friend and brother, but to guard against the Eagle Sauce and the Sakura along the eastern coastline.

In this regard, Anov made detailed reports and investigations, which showed that expenditures could be reduced by 10-20 billion rubles each year. The money saved could be used to restore the economy.

This method of killing three birds with one stone could not have been thought up by Arnoff.

Of course, it was Ding Wei who came up with the plan behind this.

The first benefit is that the troops of the former First Front Army and the naval fleet will be reduced, thus reducing the military threat in the Far East.

The second benefit is to deepen the strategic cooperation between Manchuria and the Far East and use the rich mineral resources to stimulate another innovation in Manchuria's industrial level.

The third benefit is that it will reduce the crisis on the Manchurian border. As the other side reduces its troops, Ding Wei can also save a large number of troops to expand his influence in the direction of Jin Xiaoer and Yinghua.
