"My dear, this is the message just sent by the Confidential Section, this is the battle report just sent from the front line, and this is the report sent by the Logistics Department!" Yulia put a stack of documents on Su Tong's work.

After coming to Chita for a few days, Su Tong arranged the work of the little nurse and the three daughters, Yulia became his secretary, Xia Yuxin entered the intelligence department, and the little nurse was arranged to be a nurse in the logistics hospital. Unexpectedly, the three of them really did a good job, Yulia was cheerful and careful, Xia Yuxin was shrewd and capable, and the little nurse was skilled, and for a while, Chief Su was really satisfied.

"Well, okay, you can put it on the table first! I'll see it later. Chief Su was writing hard, and said without raising his head.

"No, dear, Yu Xin said that this document is very important, and it was just sent from the intelligence department." Yulia handed an unopened message to her husband.

Su Tong took the message and looked at it, nodding secretly in his heart, although Yulia is his wife, she did not rely on her identity to do anything beyond the bounds, she didn't read her documents and secrets, she didn't listen to what she shouldn't listen to, she was really very knowledgeable.

I casually tore open the telegram and looked at it, but it turned out that it was a report from the front-line troops, and the reconnaissance planes that were already on the front line had already discovered traces of the enemy's vanguard one after another.

Su Tong sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that he can't use the Russian escort [***] as cannon fodder to slowly grind Timoshenge to death, and from the intelligence, it will not be possible for Zhukov's vanguard to arrive in Chita in two days.

Well, since you're here, I'll get rid of Timoshenko first

"Boom" A bombshell fell near the headquarters of the Ciscota, blowing the nearby fortifications to pieces, and even the oil lamps of the headquarters shook very badly.

Timoshenko and a group of Soviet officers sat in the conference room for what could be the last military meeting.

"Comrades, this may be our last military meeting, and now the enemy's vanguard is approaching less than a kilometer from the headquarters. That is, the enemy's artillery could hit here at any time, or the enemy could rush to our headquarters at any time. Now let's discuss what to do! After a day of fighting, Timoshenko's thin face became even thinner, and his jaws protruded deeply.

There was a terrible silence in the conference room, and one of the division commanders looked at Timoshenko and asked, "Comrade commander, what are the chances of success if we break through?" ”

Timoshengo was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "Now our remaining troops are less than 50,000 people, and they are almost exhausted, and if we break through, the success rate is less than one percent!" This has to be the conclusion reached by the other party when he is paralyzed and careless. ”

Although he had been prepared in his heart for a long time, when he heard others say it clearly, the division commander's face was still miserable.

"Comrade Commander, are we, are we just waiting for death?" A major general next to him asked with a pale face.

"Comrade Tchaikovsky, as a soldier, especially a great soldier of the Red Army, don't you feel ashamed to say this? You don't deserve to wear the hat that represents glory and glory, you will only tarnish its holy aura. As it turns out, you're just a coward! A division commander stood up and rebuked the major general, who was clearly war-fearful.

"I don't deserve this military cap? Do I tarnish its aura? Well, Comrade Starf, you deserve to bring it, you don't defile, then please take your troops and launch a counteroffensive! Let me, coward, see how you, a hero, charge! Major General Tchaikoskiv was furious, stood up sharply, pointed at the division commander and scolded angrily.

"Y-you bastard!" Major General Starv stood up, pointed a trembling finger at Major General Tchaikovsky's nose and said: "You coward, coward. People like you should be sent to the camp to atone for your sins with your blood! ”

After hearing the name of the insulting 'Atonement Battalion', Major General Tchaikoskiv could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, took out the Tokarev pistol that was pinned to his armed belt and pointed it at his former comrades-in-arms, loaded the gun with a "bang", aimed it at Major General Starv, and said sharply: "Okay! Do you want to send me to the 'camp of atonement'? It's up to you to see if you have the ability! ”

"Whoa!" A chaotic sound of swearing sounded, and the people in the conference room were clearly divided into two factions, and they all pulled out their guns and confronted each other. Some people scolded each other for being cowardly and afraid of death, while others scolded each other for hypocrisy, and both sides cursed each other, and there was a stalemate for a while.

Timoshenko looked sadly at the two groups of people who were facing each other in front of him, and felt a sour feeling in his heart, is this still the great Russian Red Army, is this still the majestic Russian [***] team? When the enemy is now, he will speak ill of each other and fight fiercely. If this scene is seen by the Huaxia army on the opposite side, I am afraid that it will laugh to the point of falling!

"Enough, do you still have me as a commander in your eyes, and do you still have me in your eyes!" Enraged, Timoshenko slapped the table angrily and glared at the two gangs.

In the face of Timoshenko's anger and years of accumulation, the two groups of people put away their pistols stupidly. But by this time, they had already divided into two obvious camps, hostile to each other, and Timoshenko estimated that if he left, they would all fight each other.

"Alright, you all sit down, and now I'll ask you what you think." Speaking of this, Timoshenko looked at the group of people present and asked, "Comrade Starv, do you think you can hold this place until the arrival of Zhukov's army?" ”

Major General Starff lowered his head as he muttered, not daring to say anything.

"Comrade Tchaikov, are you sure that after surrendering the Chinese army, the soldiers will enjoy a fair treatment of Neiva?"

Major General Tchaikov thought for a moment and said: "I think there should be no problem, I heard from those observers from the West that Colonel-General Molokov and Admiral Andlupuv of the Far Eastern Military District are now living well in the prisoner of war camp. It is said that this news was revealed by Western reporters who personally went to the prisoner of war camp to cover the news. They work eight hours a day, and as long as they are not too lazy, they can be fed and warmly clothed. And the officers can get treatment that matches their rank. Admiral Molokov and Admiral Andrupf even formed two football teams in the prisoner-of-war camp, which were played every weekend. Oh, damn it, what do you think I'm talking about? Saying this, Major General Tchaikoskiv's face turned red and he quickly shut his mouth.

However, the officers in the conference room listened with relish, and at this time, no matter how optimistic people were, they expected that their fate would be nothing more than two things, one was to die in battle, and the other was to enter the prisoner of war camp of the Chinese army. For a country like Russia, which straddles the Eurasian continent but is mostly Westernized from top to bottom, it is almost impossible for them to summon up the courage to commit suicide by disembowelment like Xiao Yuben after defeat, and the only way left is to surrender. Therefore, everyone is now concerned about whether they can be protected by the Neiva Convention after surrendering, and now after listening to the account of Major General Tchaikovsky, some of the previous worries have indeed been put aside.

"Report!"

A soldier barged in and said with a strange expression: "The Huaxia army on the opposite side has sent an officer to persuade you to surrender!" ”

"Call him in! It's time for them to come, too. Temoshengo waved his hand and said with a somewhat gloomy expression.

"Yes!" The soldier saluted and left.

After a while, a soldier wearing a dark green military uniform unique to the 37th Group Army of China came in from the door of the conference room, and his arrival caused everyone in the conference room to exclaim: "What? It turned out to be him? ”

I saw someone smile and greet everyone present: "Hello everyone, we meet again!" "This person is the commander of the Russian Protector [***], and now Alexei, who has been promoted to the rank of lieutenant general!

"Is that you? Seryov, this shameless traitor! I saw Major General Starff shouting in dismay.

"I'm a traitor?" Alexei glanced at Major General Starv and smiled contemptuously. Then he asked rhetorically: "Major General Starff, may I ask why I am a traitor, and who have I betrayed?" ”

"Hmph, you betrayed the great Comrade Stalin and backed the great Russian Red Army, aren't you a traitor?" Major General Starff said angrily.

"Oh?" Alek pretended to be shocked and asked: "May I ask Major General Starff, why can't I betray Stalin, the old man from Georgia?" Is it because you shout all day that he is great? But I don't see what makes him great! Is it because he starved millions of Ukrainians to death? ”

As soon as Alexei said this, the people in the conference room fell silent, the people here were all high-ranking officers in the army, and they knew some secrets about the country back then, and they were not willing to speak with their conscience on such an occasion, which would only make people look down on themselves.

The more Alexei spoke, the louder he became, "Besides, my name is not Seryov, my original name is Alexei, and our family has been loyal to the Romanovs for generations, and they are all loyal courtiers of His Majesty the Tsar." Besides, His Majesty the Tsar gave us glory and dreams, money and land, but Stalin, he brought us nothing but death and fear. If I hadn't been at home for something, I'm afraid I would have been shot by your so-called revolutionary soldiers, right? I managed to endure it and blended in with your ranks, just so that one day I could see your destruction with my own eyes. ”

Listening to Alexei's loud accusations, everyone was speechless!
