In fact, rebellion and separatism in the Russian Federation are definitely not limited to Siberia and the Far East. The separatist sentiments in Tatarstan and Chechnya in Russia are by no means inferior to those in Siberia and the Far East. Even judging from the enthusiasm for secession, the Chechens, who had many conflicts with the Russians and had different beliefs, were the most active in separatism after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
After the August 19th Incident in Chechnya, the Soviet Air Force Major General and Chechen Dudayev relied on force to overthrow the local Soviet regime. He did not choose to obey Moscow and Yeltsin, but after receiving news of the independence of Siberia and the Far East, he immediately declared independence and Chechnya became a sovereign country. Not only that, he also began to carefully prepare military forces and formed a National Guard composed mainly of Chechens.
It seems that the Chechens know very well that they want to fight for national independence and national sovereignty. Facing the rude old Maozi, the only way to freedom is to fight it out with guns and blood. Chechens and Russians have had a long-standing feud. In the 19th century, it took Tsarist Russia fifty years and a Caucasus War to initially conquer the Chechens. However, due to differences in race and belief, the Chechens often revolted, and the tsar often treated the Chechens here brutally. After the October Revolution, it briefly became independent from Russia, but returned to the Soviet Union 192 years later.
Neither Tsarist Russia nor the Soviet Union was kind to the Chechens. In 1944, Stalin used the Chechens to cooperate with the German invaders as an excuse to force the Chechens out of their homes. At that time, more than 37,000 Chechens were expelled. Traveling to Central Asia and Siberia, they were forced to leave their homes and suffer a large number of casualties. As a result, the Chechens lost 40% of their population. It also caused significant psychological and national emotional trauma. It was not until January 9, 1957 that the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union decided to restore the Chechen-Ingushetia Autonomous Republic and place it under the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation
But even during the Khrushchev era, the persecution of the Chechens was not that severe, but it was definitely not humane. Chechens were second-class citizens of the Soviet Union, suffering from government suspicion and surveillance. Chechen children cannot speak Chechen in school and can only go to school in Russian. They can only speak Chechen when they go home. This is a system of cultural genocide. Although it may not be as fast as physical annihilation, it is more terrifying. The Chechens hated this deeply. It was not until the Soviet Union continued to decline and was on the verge of destruction that they finally had a chance to breathe the air of freedom.
In another aspect, the Russian Federation actually condoned Chechnya at the beginning, hoping to meet Chechnya's requirements through concessions, allowing them to remain in the Russian Federation but gain more autonomy rights. For this reason, the Russian Federation recognized Dudayev's presidential status; it lifted the freeze on Chechen bank accounts in order to allocate pensions to Chechnya; Chechnya even gained the right to issue passports to its own citizens; in June 2019, Grachow The husband actually ordered half (actually 95%) of the weapons of the North Caucasus Military District to be handed over to the Chechen armed forces, including even the most advanced T8 tanks.
Everyone knows the consequences. Russia's concessions made the Chechens even more reckless. In the end, a war was unavoidable. Although the fierce and aggressive Chechens were at an absolute disadvantage, they still made Russia pay a heavy price.
In this plane, because of the independence of Siberia and the Far Eastern Republic, Russia cannot make concessions. Because the concessions of Yeltsin and the Russian Federation can only cause more and more separatist forces to see opportunities. By then, the huge territory of the Russian Federation will inevitably be everywhere. Yeltsin did not want to be the president of a war-torn and unstable country.
And also because of the independence of Siberia and the Far East, Yeltsin's tolerance for Chechnya has also been reduced to the lowest. In his view, the population is small, the land area is small, and there is no special force. There are only tens of thousands of Chechen militants who have gathered hastily, and they simply do not have the ability to challenge Russia. If the Russian army can defeat Chechnya and regain Chechnya's sovereignty, it will be an excellent deterrent to Siberia and the Far East in the east, and it can also boost the morale of the Russian army.
Therefore, when Dudayev declared the independence of Chechnya, Yeltsin had the idea of ????killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and military operations against Chechnya were also mentioned as a top priority.
Qi Yiming, who had already opened up the joints in Russia, also obtained a lot of relevant intelligence through some clues. After analysis by analysts from the Strategic Bureau, Qi Yiming concluded that the main target of Yeltsin's military actions would be directed at Chechnya rather than the more powerful Siberia. Republic and Far Eastern Republic.
Such low-level strategic and tactical means can be seen at a glance, and Qi Yiming does not want Russia to pull out of the quagmire of the Chechen war. Now Russia has not transferred a large amount of weapons and equipment to Chechnya, so Chechnya's power may be greater than in history It will be weaker in the same period, so Qi Yiming must strengthen Chechnya.
All the five Central Asian countries are already under Qi Yiming's control, which means that he can use the route of the Caspian Sea. Although Chechnya is not close to the Caspian Sea, it is very close. With a little thought, it is still easy to move a relatively large number of them. Weapons and equipment were delivered to the Chechen Republic.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?They are vicious and extreme, and even possessing automatic weapons and improvised bombs is enough to cause the Russian army to suffer a lot. Although Russia won the Chechen War, it was a tragic victory. If the Chechens can be equipped with the most elite modern weapons, and even Qi Yiming can send some professional military advisers to mix with the Chechen army, I am afraid that a small Chechnya may become the Vietnam of the entire Russia.
What's more, Russia will definitely not be able to deal with Chechnya with all its strength, because the independence of Siberia and the Far East is like a chokehold, and the loss of these two regions will be almost fatal to Russia.
Qi Yiming does not need to be Chinese. The agents he sent have a rough face, and the big flag is also the flag of the Republic of Siberia.
"Comrade Liganov, I am very grateful to President Yankov for his attention and sympathy for us Chechens. We Chechens and Siberians are now standing on the same front. Our common enemy is the evil Russian Federation, which started from the Soviet Union. Born from the wreckage, he did not learn any of the excellence of the Soviet Union. Instead, he inherited greed and shamelessness and attempted to stifle the desire of our Chechen people to pursue independence and freedom." Dudayev cordially received Liganov, a clerk from the Siberian Republic. .
In fact, this Liganov is just a Red Alert spy, and what he actually represents is Qi Yiming¡¯s intention.
"I understand the wishes and will of the Chechen people, and I sincerely hope that the Chechen people can live with dignity, no longer endure oppression, and can enjoy freedom. We admit that the Soviet Union did not do well on this point, and Russia now is even worse Absolutely evil. We hope to provide all necessary help to the Chechen people to resist Russia's brutal rule."
In order to pretend to be more like him, Liganov did not mention his position on Chechnya's independence at all, because Yankov and Novozlov both claimed to inherit and develop the Soviet Union, so it stands to reason that their real purpose is to restore the Soviet Union. A strong and unified Soviet Union, so Chechnya's independence obviously should not be something they support. However, Chechnya, Siberia, and the Far East are still brothers in the trenches. They all have to face Russia's "reactionary encirclement and suppression", so they have to unite. Since some things can't be explained, it's better not to mention them at all.
What¡¯s more, no one now believes that Siberia or the Far East can overthrow the Russian Federation and re-establish the Soviet Union.
Liganov mentioned: "Please rest assured, Comrade President, we are striving to establish an arms transportation channel through Kazakhstan and then across the Caspian Sea. As long as Chechnya can control a Caspian Sea port, we will be able to continuously provide Chechnya with what you need." Weapons. The Novosibirsk Industrial Zone in our hands continues to operate effectively, and we have integrated the military production capabilities of the Far East. We can provide the Chechen Republic with all kinds of light weapons, armored vehicles, and even fighter jets that Chechnya needs. "
Dudayev was originally from the Air Force. When he heard that even fighter jets could be provided, his eyes lit up and he asked: "Can we really provide fighter jets? What we are most worried about now is that the Chechen National Guard has poor air defense capabilities and lacks Anti-aircraft missiles and interceptor aircraft, if we can have our own air force, we will be even more powerful against the invasion of the Russian Federation."
Qi Yiming does not care at all about the Soviet-made weapons and property inherited from the Soviet Union. The air force equipment has a large number of MiG-2I, MiG-2B and even fourth-generation fighter jets such as MiG-2E and Susu-2. Qi Yiming has no shortage of such gadgets, and any number of fighter jets he can buy are better than these Soviet-made fighter jets. They have poor electronics, high failure rates, short lifespans, and do not have proper mid-range interceptor projectiles or electronic countermeasures weapons. Wait, in Qi Yiming's opinion, it doesn't matter even if he gives them all away.
Liganov immediately said: "We have truly understood the concerns of Chechnya, so President Yankov decided to lend 100 fighter jets to Chechnya to form a Chechen air force to fight against the Russian Air Force. Well, and President Yankov does not intend to Charging a penny from Chechnya is our selfless assistance to Chechnya¡¯s resistance to the Russian army and the great friendship between our comrades.¡±
Dudayev was so excited by this huge surprise that he shook Liganov's hand and said, "Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Chechens will never forget Yanko." Thanks to the kindness given by President Husband and Siberia, our two countries will always be friendly and brotherly countries."
Before Yeltsin was aware of it, a large number of Soviet-made weapons from the Siberian Republic passed through Kazakhstan and entered Chechnya. When the Russian army launched an offensive, they discovered that the enemy they faced was actually so well-equipped.
