While the French were making small moves, the Russians also set off a Central Asian war.
Frankly speaking, March and April are not the best time to attack, but there is no way for the tsarist government to grab time.
Austria has lost contact with the Afghan government, and the tsarist government is no better. Although it has been operating for a longer period of time, Russian bureaucrats can't bear it!
Not long after the war broke out, the two sides lost contact. In the eyes of the czar's top management, they can't be reached, and there will be no good news.
In order to gain the initiative in war, the Russian military was forced to start the war ahead of time.
Everything has two sides. At this time, the ice and snow melted, and the Russian army was under logistical pressure, but the Central Asian Khanate was not much better.
Although the logistical pressure of local operations is relatively small, war broke out at this time, affecting spring cultivation.
For agricultural countries, this is undoubtedly the most terrible. Although the countries of Central Asia are not entirely dependent on farming, and animal husbandry is also an important industry, the impact is still very large.
There was no way, the Russian army came over, the young and the strong were forced to join the army, the labor force engaged in agriculture and animal husbandry was greatly reduced, and the reduction in agriculture and animal husbandry became inevitable.
It may not seem obvious in the short term, but it actually affects the war potential of the three Khanates of Central Asia. In a sense, the Russians have already locked the victory ahead of time.
However, this was not considered by Admiral Oginets, and he did not regard the Central Asian countries as opponents from beginning to end.
Initiating an offensive is a quick battle, in order to push the frontline to the Afghan region as soon as possible and fight the British.
Against this background, it is naturally meaningless to the long-term strategic advantages of the Central Asian countries.
"Generating electricity urges the country to speed them up, and if we continue this for up to half a month, we can only stop the attack."
With the outbreak of war, the chaotic logistics management of the Russian army was gradually exposed.
As the supreme commander of Central Asia, Admiral Oginets needs logistic materials, which must also be coordinated domestically.
There is no problem in the peaceful years. The unified deployment of strategic materials by the government can effectively balance the military.
The war years seemed outdated. If the bureaucracy of the Tsarist government gave power, the problem was not serious, and the delay was at most a day or two.
It is not unacceptable for a big country to sacrifice a little efficiency.
Regrettably, the bureaucracy of the Tsarist government is constantly degenerating. The reformists who promoted the progress of the country in the era of Alexander II have now become corrupted conservatives.
Alexander III was not the master of decisive action, and the system of the Russian Empire was imperfect, and it was inevitable that the bureaucracy was inadequate.
The middle-aged military officer in charge of logistics replied: "Your Excellency Commander, we have sent the telegram five times. Except for the previous two replies, all the others behind are silent.
If nothing goes wrong, our telegram will face the same ending. Perhaps these telegrams cannot reach the logistics minister. "
The interception of front-line telegrams is unlikely to happen in other countries, but it is normal to happen in the Russian Empire.
The slow transportation of logistical materials does not necessarily mean that the Russian Empire has no capacity. It is more likely that the capacity originally belonged to the military was occupied.
The intensity of the Central Asian War is not very strong, and some materials are also stored on the front line. Materials such as food and tents are readily available.
Ammunition, medicine, and military supplies that are not suitable for long-term storage are really needed for domestic transportation.
The requirements for capacity are not very large, because of the muddy road relationship, there may be a delay, but it is still barely affordable.
Before launching the offensive, the Russian military had already calculated it. If it is determined at the outset that the logistics are in short supply, then no matter how Admiral Odinets will not launch an attack so early.
After hearing the news, Admiral Oginets had a terrible complexion. It was not that he hadn't fought a war, nor that he had never seen a pitman, but it was the first time such a pitman was encountered.
Perhaps it has something to do with luck. In the first Russian-Russian war, Auchinets failed to catch up.
During the Second Russian-Russian War, the troops he served moved forward along the Russian-Austrian border. The logistics materials were purchased nearby, and the quartermaster would delay the most by a day or two.
Not to mention the Third Near East War, Austria is responsible for the supply of logistics supplies, and it is sufficient to send someone to receive it, without even worrying about it.
Good luck was finally used up, fighting in Central Asia, the logistics supply all depended on the domestic, General Adkinets finally learned the power of the bureaucrats.
"Why not report such an important thing in advance?"
The domestic bureaucracy is powerful, and the frontline bureaucracy is not successful. The logistics department did not reply three times. Such important things can be concealed from him as a commander, and I think I was drunk.
The questioned middle-aged military officer replied anxiously: "We thought the logistics department was only busy on business, and forgot to reply for a while, but did not expect ..."
Waiting for the middle-aged officer to continue to explain, Admiral Oginets went viral and threw the cup in front of him straight away.
"What do you think, what do you think you want, and what do you want my commander to do?
Could it be that you think that your own organization is in the logistics department, and my commander can't control you?
Or do you think that the military laws of the Russian Empire are not strict and want to give it a try? "
A series of questions directly frightened the middle-aged military officer, and for a time did not know how to answer.
Frankly speaking, they are the airbags sandwiched between the logistics department and the frontline command.
It is organized in the logistics department, and the promotion is returned to domestic responsibility. Naturally, it does not offend the lords in the rear. The key is that they are also controlled by the front command.
For the middle and lower-level officers, the logistics department is certainly a powerful government, but for Admiral Oginets, they are only subordinate departments of the General Command.
Admiral Oginets may have no way to decide their promotion, but they can decide their life and death.
The corruption of the Russian Empire is notorious, not to mention the management of logistics, it is definitely the hardest hit by corruption.
No one will pursue it, then nothing will happen. If someone uncovers the lid, they still have to be held accountable.
This is the battlefield. As long as the evidence is available, Admiral Odinets can execute any bureaucrat on the charges of corrupt military needs at any time.
"His Commander, I ... I ..."
Not waiting for the middle-aged officer to explain, Oginets waved his hand: "Okay, Kratzvalli. I know you all have hardships and can't be the master of the country.
But remember, it is on the battlefield now, no matter anyone or anything has to give way to the war, I believe you can understand what I mean.
No matter what method you use, I have to guarantee the supply of logistics materials. Whoever drags me behind, I need his head.
This sentence, you can bring to the gang of lords in China. Once there is a shortage of supplies on the battlefield, or if there is a problem with supplies, I will go back to my Majesty the Tsar for comment.
I believe that the great Tsar His Majesty will surely be able to perceive clearly, catch the British collusion in the government, and deliberately delay the combat process. "
Murder cannot solve the problem, and Kratzvalli is not the one who caused it.
Auginets was not an idealist, and did not want to wipe out the moths in the tsarist government, as long as these people did not disturb themselves.
There are too many Russian bureaucrats like Kratzvalli. If you kill one, there will be another.
It may even cause the enemies of the logistics department to kill him because of the murder, and deliberately trouble him.
This kind of thing is not unprecedented. Admiral Oginets didn't want to try it. After striking it again, he decisively chose to accept it.
As for the right to distribute logistics materials, the military is responsible for coordinating the supply of materials.
He is in charge of the soldiers and manages the food. Unless the Tsar personally went to rein in the soldiers, it would be uneasy to let anyone go to the country.
The most basic power checks and balances are common throughout the world. If you want to break the rules, you are breaking taboos. Admiral Oginets is politically minded and will naturally not jump.
Admiral Auginets ’s
knockdown
fell into Kratzvalli ’s eyes, which was a crit that was even more terrifying than the demon.
Once the accusation of "collusion of the British" is confirmed, there is one in the logistics department, so it is absolutely necessary to collect lunch.
Not only is it bad for oneself, even the family behind is going to die.
No matter what aristocracy is or not, from the beginning of the Alexander II reform, the Russian Empire has no tradition of not killing the aristocracy.
Corruption and taking bribes in ordinary times, it doesn't matter if Fan is a little wrong. Anyway, everyone is the same, the law does not blame the public.
But colluding with the British is treason. When dealing with traitors, when did the tsarist government soften.
Seeing Auginets ’s eyes turned, Kratzvalli quickly assured: "My Excellency Commander, please rest assured. I must urge the country to ship the materials as soon as possible."
...
The logistics headquarters of the Russian Army in St. Petersburg, Minister Argent on duty, was bored watching the newspaper to pass the time.
Suddenly a middle-aged man hurried in with a telegram.
Argent said dissatisfiedly: "What's the matter, Passel?"
Passel smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, if you are not in a hurry now, you will have a big deal if you slow down.
This was a telegram from the front line. The guy in Auginets warned us that if the logistics could not be delivered in time, he would charge our Majesty the Tsar with us for colluding with the British. "
Argent's face changed greatly, and he scolded: "How is this reasonable, how can the logistics department be threatened by him.
Passel, you're too much fuss. Since Auginets is about to sue, let him go to court.
How could His Majesty believe this ridiculous crime? Order the transportation team to make an excuse to delay the time deliberately, I think what he can do! "
Threat is second, and Argent is more afraid of learning from others. If he accepts the threat of Oginets, the future Russian generals will follow suit, isn't the logistics department to be slain?
Passel shook his head: "My Excellency, this is probably not going to work. Oginets dare to threaten us, I am afraid that we have some evidence in hand.
According to the Kratzvalli Telegraph, the matter of using our military to transport materials to the capitalists has been exposed.
If Auchinets uncovers this lid, he will bite us at colluding with the British and deliberately delaying the delivery of strategic supplies, and the country will inevitably carry out rigorous investigations.
It will be hard to tell what will happen at that time. "
After hearing this explanation, Argent immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
Once proven, the logistics department deliberately delayed the delivery of strategic materials. Whether they collude with the British does not need evidence, but the Czar has the final say.
Given the importance of this war, Argent had reason to believe that Alexander III would use their heads to deter bureaucrats in the country.
Similar things have already happened in the Russo-Prussian War. At that time, the top level of the logistics department was pulled out by Alexander II and hit the target.
The teacher who never forgets the past, and after learning from the past, the bureaucrats of the logistics department already knew what could not be done.
After the response came, Argent immediately took the opportunity to say: "What would it cost, immediately start to organize the transportation, and transport the materials to the front line as soon as possible, and don't leave Auchenets with a complaint."
In short, as long as the logistics supplies arrived on the front line on time. Then the issue of borrowing troops to pull goods to the capitalists is a trivial matter.
Even if someone reveals it, the logistics department is enough to deal with it, and it will not attract the attention of the tsarist government at all.
On the contrary, the consequences are serious.
Passel said: "Your Excellency, it's not that we don't want to hurry, the problem is that all the military ranks have been borrowed.
If you repent now, you have to go to offend more people. It is important to know that those capitalists are not without foundation, and there are too many big figures involved behind them. "
This is a practical problem. Even if ordinary capitalists are rich again, they have no courage to use military forces to transport their goods during the war.
Russian bureaucrats are not so good in morality, turning their heads off to recognize their goods and hacking them directly, only in pediatrics.
If you meet a ruthless person, they will buckle you a hat that embezzled the military ranks, and directly copy the house to destroy the door.
Those who dare to pay the bribe of the logistics department and use the military to transport the goods are all standing behind them, able to resist this risk.
Argent, who has recovered, sneered: "It's enough to inform them. To resent, let them resent Oginets!"
Don't be afraid to offend people, this kind of thing is already invisible. If it's really troubled, we will surely be finished, how can these people be good? "
