    For Russia, Siberia is a colony, but this colony is a bit special and is connected to the mainland.  For a long time, the Russians have seized resources from here, exiled criminals, and in later generations, they even placed nuclear waste in Siberia. Basically, this is Russia's big garbage dump.  But this "garbage dump" is related to the rise and fall of Russia. For the first time in hundreds of years, the Russians have encountered challenges. Siberia is no longer safe.  Just half a day ago, China dispatched more than 60 bombers to bomb Omsk and Novosibirsk.  This operation had been planned by China for a long time. During the bombing, napalm was used for the first time.  The so-called napalm bomb is a mixed gel containing gasoline and other chemicals, mainly natural rubber.  After this kind of bomb explodes, it can produce high-temperature flames. It contains a gel made of gasoline and other chemicals. When it explodes, it sputters around, emitting a high temperature of about one thousand degrees Celsius, and can stick to other objects and burn for a long time.  .  During World War II, the United States dropped countless incendiary bombs over Tokyo, completely turning the city into a cemetery.  On the night of March 9, 1945, 334 B-29s flew from Guam to Tokyo. They carried out sweeping bombings and dropped more than 2,000 tons of incendiary bombs. 41 square kilometers of the city center were razed to the ground and 267,000 buildings were destroyed.  A total of 83,793 people were burned to death. The actual death toll may have exceeded 90,000. Another 100,000 people were seriously burned and injured, and 1 million people were made homeless.  The killing effect was even more astonishing than the Great Kanto Earthquake.  For Zhang Tinglan, who regards Japan as a life-and-death enemy, he will naturally not let go of such an efficient murder weapon.  In fact, it is not too late for China to develop incendiary bombs.  Since Germany obtained the flamethrower technology, China has been doing corresponding research.  One problem with the early liquid fuel was that after it was sprayed, it was difficult to adhere to objects, which affected the killing effect.  After experiments, the effect of using colloidal gasoline is very good.  After reporting this discovery, Zhang Tinglan ordered the troops to conduct research on incendiary bombs based on this.  As a result, the incendiary bomb was successfully produced.  However, there is a problem before us, that is, the price of natural rubber is very high and cannot be applied on a large scale.  The turning point came after the founding of Nanhua. Although no one in this country recognized it yet, it did not hinder trade with China. A large amount of cheap rubber was sent back to the country, and incendiary bombs were also produced in large quantities.  ??A feast originally prepared for the Japanese.  Unexpectedly, it fell on the Russians first.  Dozens of Chinese bombers dropped tons of napalm over Omsk.  Immediately, an astonishing effect was produced. The bomb exploded, and hot gelatinous gasoline splashed everywhere. As long as it touched the body, even a little bit, it would have terrible consequences.  These things are like lard.  The beating becomes more violent, and if he lies on the ground and rolls around, his whole body will be covered in flames.  Some people are in unbearable pain and will struggle desperately, only to throw the flames onto the people next to them.  Cause a chain effect.  In fact, for those who are contaminated by incendiary bombs, the best relief is to shoot them to death.  This saves you a lot of suffering.  Because there are a lot of additives in the incendiary bombs, such as white phosphorus. On the one hand, it is to enhance the power of combustion. On the other hand, white phosphorus is also highly toxic. At least if it is stained, even if it is not burned to death, it will be poisoned.  die.  It is precisely this kind of terrible lethality that when the incendiary bombs fell in the city of Omsk, they immediately caused terrible fires. Houses were burned down, various buildings were shrouded in them, and a large number of people were burned and burned to death.  The shrill cries of struggle echoed constantly in the sky above Omsk. Everyone seemed to have encountered the end of the world, trembling and running around.  What¡¯s more terrible is that the Russians don¡¯t have any concept of fire prevention. Siberia has a lot of wood. The Russians all use the best larch wood for heating. There are a lot of firewood piled in front of many homes.  When these pine trees are burning, they will crackle, and not only will there be a pine scent, but also grease will drip, and the burning will be extremely intense.  It's just that these usually most popular fuels have become life-threatening talismans at this time. After the firewood burned, more and more places in the city were devoured by fire. The Russians struggled frantically, but to no avail and could only collapse helplessly.  In the sea of ??fire.  In fact, the most affected areas were railway stations, warehouses, barracks, governments, post offices and other places. These major buildings were all under special care, and almost half of Omsk was covered in fire.  Because this is an important transportation hub, the Russians hoarded a large amount of supplies here to prepare for transport to the front line. As a result, after this bombing, at least two-thirds of these supplies were lost.  This bombing was like a blow to the head, hitting the Russians hardAbove their heads, through the blazing flames, they saw the ruthlessness and power of China.  When the report was sent to Moscow, Stalin's hands and feet were cold. He did not expect that China had such a powerful power.  In Stalin's view, the defeat in the Far East was mainly due to the Russian civil war, which severely damaged the country's national strength, and the Chinese were injured in the defeat.  But now he understands that China has already gone ahead of Russia in terms of military construction.  Thinking of this, this piece of hard steel also felt a sense of fear.  At this moment, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs suddenly sent a secret intelligence. It turned out that this secret intelligence was obtained from Japan. It clearly stated that the Chinese government was trying to invite Japan to jointly deal with Russia. In addition, Poland also  Be willing to join in the fun.  Seeing this, Stalin's heart was completely cold. One China is already very troublesome. If Japan is added to it, the Far East may not be able to defend it.  And Poland wanted to join it, which made Stalin even more furious.  Anyway, Poland was once part of Russia and they were white too.  Unexpectedly, he was so shameless that he wanted to cooperate with China.  Stalin gritted his teeth. In addition to being angry, Stalin also felt a bone-chilling coldness. Poland's participation actually meant that Britain and France would also join.  Maybe it will be another drama of joint intervention in Russia. With Russia's current strength, it may be able to win, but it will definitely be a tragic victory, which is what he does not want to see.  The top brass in Moscow gathered together again to discuss the situation at hand. Everyone knew that the situation was very bad.  Yagoda, who is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, said: "According to preliminary estimates, we have lost more than 30 million supplies in Omsk, and the Siberian Railway has also been affected. It will take at least a week to recover." "What?"  Stalin asked in surprise: "What should the soldiers in the Far East do for such a long time? Without the railway, how will their supplies be delivered?" Yagoda lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Stalin's eyes, but he still said  : "The Chinese used a new type of incendiary bomb, and the killing effect was astonishing. They could not do it until they did not take action for a week. In the world, their air force will still bomb us, and even the army will take action.  Stalin stared at Yagoda closely and asked sternly: "Comrade Yagoda, do you mean that we have actually lost the ability to support the Far East battlefield?" "Comrade Stalin, I don't care, although I don't want to admit it?"  , But the fact is as you said. "Stalin sank, and others looked at each other.  Kamenev suddenly said: "Comrade Stalin, I suggest you immediately order Yegorov to withdraw, and then concentrate his forces to fight the Chinese decisively." Upon hearing this, Stalin stood up suddenly, his pupils turned into needles, and gasped  He asked in a rough voice: "Kamenev, do you mean to give up the Far East? Do you want to give up these lands that belong to Russia?" "No, it's just" Kamenev still wanted to defend.  Stalin waved his hand fiercely: "Stop talking. You and your companion Trotsky are both traitors. You have become China's lackeys and want to seize Soviet land. I will not let you succeed"  Listening to Stalin's words, everyone present fell silent for an instant. They instinctively felt that a storm was coming again Just after the Chinese Air Force bombed Omsk, private contacts between China and Russia began, and the two sides started fighting.  , and finally Gu Weijun and Molotov reached an armistice agreement in Kulun.  According to the provisions of the agreement, Russia recognized China¡¯s special interests in the Far Eastern Empire and did not seek to annex the Far Eastern Empire.  At the same time, the two sides also demarcated the borders of Central Asia. They gave up the area east and south of Lake Balkhash that they had captured during the Tsarist Russia era, totaling 440,000 square kilometers.  In addition, looking at the geographical boundaries, China's territory has extended westward, reaching the Aral Sea and the Caspian Sea.  In other words, Central Asia is divided equally between China and Russia. Most of Kazakhstan is still in the hands of the Russians, but the southern part of Central Asia, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan all fall to China.  in hand.  Although China did not take over all of Central Asia, with this agreement, China completely occupied the Amu Darya and Syr Darya river basins, the richest areas in Central Asia, and at the same time opened up the road to the Caspian Sea.  From the perspective of terrain area, most of what China has obtained is plateau and mountainous areas, while the Russian side has plains, but in fact the area occupied by China is more conducive to defense.  Moreover, after winning here, China directly borders Afghanistan and Iran, which is equivalent to opening up the road to development in South Asia and the Middle East, and the situation in western China has been completely opened up.  These strategic advantages will have to wait until China has sufficient strength before they can be fully utilized.?But right now, there are several benefits that are enough to make China choke.  In the areas controlled by China, there are more than 150 billion tons of coal, and the varieties are complete, and can even be directly supplied for steelmaking. In addition, there are also large amounts of copper, tungsten, uranium and other resources. The specific amount has not been clearly detected, but it is sufficient for China  Initial industrialization is no problem at all. According to the current valuation, these natural resources alone are worth tens of billions
