Even the British themselves felt a little neurotic, and any diplomatic intelligence showed that Zhou Chun, the king of the kingdom of Ula, was a typical Oriental-style corrupt monarch, and Queen Olga was a queen like Catherine in Russia.

The queen of power, the inactive king of the East, on the whole, it is not difficult to judge that all the actions of this country are the embodiment of the queen's will.

After the mobilization of the Ural kingdom, the number of troops continued to increase, and their population was in good age, and a large number of Chinese immigrants were in the prime of life and had received military training for a long time, as well as the local ethnic Russians, which allowed them to raise an army of one million.

The quality of Chinese-made weapons and equipment is also quite good, and there is no reason to doubt the combat effectiveness of the Ural army, especially the great detour created by the Chinese ten years ago, so that no one in this era will doubt the combat effectiveness of the Chinese.

Once more than one million living forces in the Urals join the Russian side in the fight, it is conceivable that Russia's victory will be a high probability event, unless the German coalition forces can annihilate the main force of the Russian army as soon as possible, otherwise the tide of the war will be tilted in their most unfavorable direction.

The attitude of the British gradually began to tilt, on the one hand, they stepped up their good offices, hoping that P-Austria would accept the conditions of partial changes in Polish territory, and also hoped that the Tsar would give up part of Poland. But this time, Puo agreed, but the tsar did not accept it, the tsar now has his good sister to help, he is already full of confidence in victory, how can he accept the conditions of ceded territory in this case. On the contrary, he intends to put an end to the Austro-Prussian threat once and for all. Poland had to be a complete Poland, and the western part of Poland, which had previously been occupied by Prussia, had to be included in Poland.

After the Austrians took control of the lower Danube, it was also a problem for Russia, because Austria blocked the way for Russia to expand in the direction of the Balkans, and could not expand into Bulgaria, and thus could not have an impact on the Ottoman Strait region. The Black Sea region has always been the best outlet for Russia, but it has always been stuck on this side of the strait by the Ottomans, once the strait is opened, Russia will own the entire Mediterranean, and will become a sea power with a vast maritime hinterland.

After the Tsar rejected the British mediation, the British were more convinced that the Urals had sided with Russia, and Britain was more worried about whether there was a Chinese factor behind the behavior of the Urals. If it is the will of the Chinese government or the Chinese emperor, this is very dangerous. Obviously, the Chinese are not worried about Russia's strength, they have this confidence, no matter how strong Russia is, it is impossible to threaten China on land, at least not in the foreseeable future.

Could it be that China therefore supports Russia's expansion into Western Europe, thereby pushing Russia's strategic direction westward, and making Russia a tool for China to infiltrate the West?

If this is the case, the previous policy of the British was too ridiculous, and they still wanted to use Russia to block China, but China turned Russia into a tool for their westward expansion. Coupled with China's railway monopoly in Russia, the British have reason to believe that the Chinese do see Russia's westward expansion as an indirect way for them to move westward.

Ridiculously before, Britain was still helping Russia, refusing to provide financial support to Austria, and even seized the last batch of arms ordered by Prussia at customs, while providing funds and weapons and equipment to Russia.

Britain's diplomatic attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees, not only stopping the issuance of war bonds for Russia, but also seizing all outstanding Russian arms and arms orders. Pressure Russia to accept a compromise and sign a peace agreement with Austria.

Although Russia's diplomatic situation has become dangerous, Russia does not intend to give in, the situation on the battlefield has begun to become favorable, after 300,000 elite border guards went south, Moltke very wisely gave up the encirclement of Muravyov, resisted the attack of the elite of the Russian army, supplied a large number of supplies through Austria, and sent these materials into the Crimean Peninsula, and then Moltke led the main force of the Ottoman army, and retreated westward with the Austrian army, retreated to Odessa to defend it, and part of Moltke's army retreated into the Crimean Peninsula, Hold on to the peninsula, once again an isolated island.

After Muravyov relieved the siege, he was quickly dismissed by the Tsar and replaced by Duke Alexei Petrovich, the commander of the Volga Army who had gone south to rescue him, alias Yermolov, a conservative old aristocrat who had large territories in the Kaluga, Ryazan and Tambov oblasts, but lost them all in the serfdom reforms. He also participated in the Russian wars, but did not become a prisoner of China, because he was not in the army at that time, but at home. This is an unpopular persona who is not liked by the tsar or by Speransky.

The Tsar did not like him because he protected the Decembrists, he did not agree with the Decembrists, but he deliberately favored the children of the powerful Decembrists, and was dismissed by Tsar Nicholas I, suspecting him of revolutionary tendencies, but let him not be captured for the war with China, otherwise a person of his qualifications would have served as an important officer in the war ten years ago. Speransky also did not like him, because he was a conservative old aristocracy, opposed to the reform of serfdom, and during Speransky's rule, he was even forced to flee abroad for a time.

It was only after the coup d'état of Alexander I that he returned to Russia as an important officer and led the most elite Volga army against China.

This person's background, like Radetzky of Austria, is a marshal-level figure with great prestige. As early as when Napoleon attacked Russia, he was already the commander of the army group, and when he counterattacked Napoleon, he was a general who commanded the army together with a figure of Kutuzov's level, and he can be called a veteran of the Russian army. Even before the rise of Napoleon, he and Suvorov were engaged in the military reform of the Russian army. Later, he participated in the Napoleonic Wars and the Greek War of Independence. He is a patriarch who has gone through five generations of tsars.

Such a person is also a treasure.

In the face of the elite of the Russian army under his command, Moltke did not dare to be careless, so he could only give up the encirclement of Muravyov and take a defensive position, so at this time, the Russian army already had a strength advantage in the direction of the Black Sea.

In fact, Muravyov's combat did not make any unforgivable mistakes, the main thing was that his absolute strength was limited. But after he was surrounded by Moltke, the fighting spirit of the army that he successfully stimulated, and he held on until Yermolov's rescue, and the battle was still remarkable.

The soldiers under Muravyov were mainly prisoners released from China, whose mental will had been tortured by hard labor and was extremely low, and on the battlefield, they only wanted to survive, without the slightest sense of honor. But when they were surrounded in Nikolaev, they suddenly burst out with a strong will to resist, for the simple reason that they did not want to be captured again, they did not want to do hard labor again.

Relying on such fighting spirit, the Russian army withstood Moltke's months-long onslaught, and then waited for Yermolov's rescue.

After Yermolov completed the rescue, he readjusted his military deployment and appointed and dismissed a number of unqualified officers. A daring command center was formed, a joint command was formed with the Black Sea Fleet, and the commander of the Black Sea Fleet, Kornilov, the young tsar's brother, Nikolai Nikolayevich, and the young staff officer Dmitry Alekseevich Milyutin, who was ahead of his thinking, were all promoted by the veterans.

Yermolov did not intend to touch the fortified Crimean Peninsula, he only sent an army to block it, and asked the navy to quickly destroy the small boats of the Ottoman army, which Moltke used to smuggle his troops across the Sea of Azov.

Yermolov paid more attention to the rear route, as a veteran of the Great Patriotic War, he knew too well why Napoleon failed, he deployed a large number of troops on the rear communication arteries, strengthened the defense of Nikolaev, and then began to attack in the direction of Odessa.

But Moltke did not give him a chance, and after Moltke retreated to Odessa, he joined up with the Ottoman Jihadist Army, and at the same time joined the Austrian army, and the defense was very stable. The veteran was not given the slightest opportunity.

Moltke still has a large army composed of 500,000 jihadist troops and 200,000 Ottoman main forces, which is not less than Yermolov in terms of strength, but the main force of the Austrian army once again went north, because the Russian army Gorchakov's offensive was too fierce, and Austria was afraid that the Russian army would attack the hinterland and had to retreat north. Now Moltke is using the Ottoman army to resist the Russian army alone, and the difference in combat effectiveness is obvious, and Moltke has to take a defensive position.

The Austro-Russian army once again entered the stage of strategic confrontation and stalemate in the Black Sea direction, but the fighting in the Polish direction instantly entered a white heat.

Because even Britain felt the seriousness of the Russian problem, Britain was mainly concerned about the political risks after the Tsar's marriage with China, while Puo was more worried about the military risks after the Tsar received support from the Ural Kingdom.

At this time, the British turned to support the Augs, but it did not help the Austros much, and they must now use their own forces to defeat the Tsar's main force as soon as possible, and gain absolute battlefield superiority before the Ural army joins and occupies it.

The strength of the Russian army in the Polish direction has reached one million, scattered in a strategic width of hundreds of kilometers, pressing in the direction of East Prussia to the north, attacking Austria in the south, before the fighting idea of rescuing the Russian army on the southern front, the Russian army launched a full-scale counteroffensive, recovering Austrian Poland to the south, expelling the Prussian army to East Prussia to the north, and continuing to block the Prussian army on the other side of the Vistula River to the west.

But the superiority of the Russian army in terms of strength soon evaporated. The strength of the North German coalition army has reached one million people, which is the total strength of more than 30 states dependent on Prussia, and it can already compete with the Russian army; The number of Austrian troops is also quite large, the South German coalition army has 500,000 people, and now they are all transferred back from the southern front, a total of 1.5 million German coalition troops, although there are still a large number of Poles and Bohemians, but the main force composition is still the German nation, whether it is the will to fight, or the level of training, and the equipment, it is the first-class level in Europe, and now they have launched a full-scale offensive against the Russian army.
