Chapter 770: Sudden Change
Just when the Qing court was making final preparations for Zhang Yi's victory and launching a war of unification in the near future, northern China was still in the midst of a war-torn political situation. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com], latest chapter access:. [I love to read]
However, the current situation is relatively clear, and the Russian troops in Zhili, the Far East, and Inner Mongolia have been completely defeated by the Chinese Revolutionary Army, and the current Russian military strength is clearly at a disadvantage; Japanese troops have begun to withdraw from China, and they have not even retained too much military strength in Korea. As for Britain and France, the armies of the two countries have just arrived in India, and there is still a long way to go from China.
Now the biggest threat still comes from Tsarist Russia, the current tsar has been mad with anger, the Russian army in Vladivostok, Zhili, and Inner Mongolia has all been defeated, and the casualties alone have exceeded 160,000 people, such a big loss is already a pain in the bones for Russia!
Nicholas II frantically sent another group army, plus a group army that had just set off for three days, three group armies, more than 150,000 troops, and marched towards the Far East again, once all the 150,000 troops arrived on the north bank of the Heilongjiang River, then it would gather nearly 300,000 troops, such a powerful force pressure on the border, it can definitely threaten the survival of the Republic of China, if the two sides really have such a big war again, the total strength will exceed 400,000! Such a scale, even in the world, is rare!
Now the weather has entered autumn, Siberia has begun to become cold, although it has not entered the severe cold, but when the army arrives in the Far East, they will no longer think of being able to return today, the current Siberian railway has not been fully penetrated, and the whole of Siberia will not be able to carry out a large-scale long-distance march in winter. (Just Love)
In seven days, the three Tsarist Russian armies crossed Central Siberia and approached Eastern Siberia, which was only a few thousand miles away from Heilongjiang.
Just when the tsar fantasized that the Russian army could defeat the Chinese Revolutionary Army in Heilongjiang in one go, an earth-shattering thing happened.
After a month of preparation, the German Emperor Wilhelm II mobilized a large army to the Far East, and seven or eight days later, suddenly, 500,000 German troops were assembled and launched a fierce offensive towards the borders of Russia!
It was too sudden, not to mention that Nicholas II did not expect, even everyone around Nicholas II did not expect that Wilhelm II would suddenly launch a powerful offensive against 'Poland'!
Today's German army can be called the world's strongest army, no country's army in the world can compete with the German army, not even the French army, in the Franco-Prussian War, the powerful French ** team was defeated by the Germans, and even the north can not be found!
Now that the 500,000-strong army has launched such a fierce offensive in the western direction of Tsarist Russia, there are only less than 100,000 Russian troops stationed in 'Poland' and other places, and in the face of the offensive of the German army of 4.5 million, they are simply vulnerable.
The telegram of the defeat of the Polish-Ran army was sent back to St. Petersburg like snowflakes.
Today's Nicholas II is completely stupid, and now there are less than six or seven hundred thousand Russian troops in the entire west, which seems to be a lot, but whether it is in terms of equipment or the military quality of personnel, there is too much gap with the German army, and it is too difficult for six or seven hundred thousand Russian troops to resist the attack of five hundred thousand German troops!
In two or three days, the German army and the Russian army fought three battles, and after three battles, the 100,000 Russian troops were defeated, and now half of the "Poland" has fallen into the hands of Wilhelm II.
At present, the troops of the Russian Western Front are gathering nervously towards the border, trying to engage in a life-and-death struggle with the German army, but the troops of the Western Front are distributed throughout Eastern Europe, covering a land of one million square kilometers, and it may be too small to complete all the build-up in a short period of time. By the time the Russian army completes its assembly, I am afraid that the German army will definitely have swallowed the whole of 'Poland'.
Nicholas II sat in the imperial palace in St. Petersburg with telegrams thrown on the table, not knowing what to do?
"Impossible, impossible!"
Nicholas II roared frantically, "England and France have put pressure on Wilhelm II of Germany to make a guarantee that they will never start a war before besieging China, how can they start such a large-scale war?" ”
However, now the facts are already in front of us, and the battle reports from the front are sent to the palace one by one, begging the tsar to quickly mobilize the whole country's army and go to the western front to prepare for a decisive battle with the German army to resist the German invasion.
Linevich on the side said urgently: "Your Majesty, now we have less than 800,000 troops on the entire Western Front, and the mobile troops that can be mobilized will not exceed 600,000, but we will face the attack of 500,000 German troops in Germany, our weapons and equipment are too far behind Germany, and it is difficult for 600,000 people to resist the German attack, I am afraid that it will only take two or three months to advance the war to the border of our Russia, and Poland, Belarus, Lithuania and other places will definitely fall into the hands of the German army!" We must transfer back the three Chinese armies in front! It has to be fast! ”
Nicholas II said viciously: "Bring back the army? How to transfer it back, now the three group armies have already set off for seven or eight days, and the forward is only three or four hundred kilometers away from Western Siberia, even if the three group armies are transferred back now, I am afraid that they will not be able to come back without more than ten days! ”
Ninevich replied: "There is no way, now I can only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor!" Your Majesty, three army groups must be recalled so that we will be able to hold back the German offensive! As for the fact that before they rush back, we must rely on foreign 'diplomacy' means to delay the pace of the German attack! Immediately sent a telegram to Salisbury and Lubet, asking the two of them to stand up and preside over the situation, to ask the Germans for peace temporarily, and to ask them to stabilize the German army, at the beginning, the two of them gave us a guarantee, saying that Germany would never launch an attack at this time, so we mobilized three army groups to move eastward, and now the Germans are treacherous, they must give us a clear statement! ”
Nicholas II stomped his feet hard, and now this is all he can do.
Nicholas II roared: "Order, the troops of all parts of the country are rapidly advancing towards Belarus, establishing a second line of defense in Belarus, and ensuring the security of Belarus and Lithuania!" Call Lube and Salisbury immediately and ask them how they can guarantee it, the dog said, the old man is dead! ”
