Chapter 1288 Battle! Attack!

"Excessive! It's just too much! William, did he really think that we had no choice but to let them slaughter? ”。 In the Moscow Kremlin, Tsar Nicholas II's roar made everyone feel a deep fear, and Russia's goodwill was met with a rude response from Germany, which hurt Nicholas II very much! The demands made by Wilhelm II were definitely not something he could agree to! After the defeat of the war with China, Russia has lost most of its territory, and the remaining Eastern European Plain and the Siberian Plain are where Russia's jīng Hua is located, if he agrees to those demands of Wilhelm II, then Russia may really be completely reduced to a second-rate country, which is something that Nicholas II absolutely does not want to see!

The ministers of Russia, one by one, bowed their heads, in front of the angry Tsar, they knew that silence at this time was undoubtedly the best option! The demands made by the Germans also greatly surprised them, and the war reparations of two billion gold marks were enough to make the current Russia pay for a hundred years. Moreover, Wilhelm II also greedily demanded that the lands along the Baltic coast, west of Smolensk, and Ukraine be ceded to Germany, which is absolutely impossible! Ukraine and the Don Valley have always been the granaries of Russia, and if they are ceded, then Russia may not be able to achieve self-sufficiency in grain! I am afraid that Russia will only be able to become a weak second-rate power! Don't say that Tsar Nicholas II couldn't accept it, they couldn't accept it either!

"The Germans demanded. We can't say yes! So. What do we do now? Nicholas II gasped. Look at these important ministers of Russia and look to them for a solution to the problem.

"Your Majesty, since the Germans think we are easy to bully, there is almost no possibility for us to make peace with the Germans! Now there are only two ways before us, one is to carry on the war and seek opportunities in the war! The second is to turn to the Chinese, this time the world war is likely to end with the victory of the Chinese and the allies! So. What about after the war? China and Germany are both countries with great ambitions, and their two countries will definitely have a strict confrontation, even a war, in order to compete for world hegemony! If we turn to China and support China as the world hegemon, perhaps Russia will be able to continue to exist! "Russian Prime Minister Ivan. Goremygin said!

It's just that Tsar Nicholas II listened to Ivan. After the opinion of Prime Minister Goremykin, the face sè looked a little ugly. After Russia was defeated by China several times and lost a large amount of territory, Tsar Nicholas II made it his life's goal to defeat China. Now let him forget his hatred and wag his tail to the Chinese and beg for mercy. He really can't do such a thing!

See the expression of Tsar Nicholas II. Ivan. Prime Minister Goremykin had to sigh in his heart. Although, for those of them who are Westerners, it may be a shame to turn to China. However, he believed that as long as Russia could be continued, it would be a victory! He was also worried that the Chinese side would not accept Russia's request for peace, after all, China is now strong enough to destroy Russia! If Russia is destroyed, the Chinese will get even more! However, now Tsar Nicholas II's expression let him know that Russia probably has only one way to fight! Perhaps, the rule of the Romanov dynasty will come to an end after this war!

"Kuropatkin, send a telegram to Grand Duke Nikolai and give him a big victory in the Siberian Plain! Even if Russia is doomed to lose the war and is destined to surrender to the Chinese, then we must let these Chinese see our strength. To let those Chinese, Russia is not without any role! Tsar Nicholas II uttered this sentence almost through gritted teeth. To be able to become the tsar of Russia, he is certainly not a fool. In the face of greedy Germany, Russia will obviously not agree to German blackmail, then defecting to the Chinese has become their only choice! It's just that, with China's current strong strength, how can it accept the refuge of other countries lightly! Since it is inevitable that China will compete with Germany for world hegemony after the war, then Russia must show its strength and make China feel that it is useful to accept Russia, and only in this way can Russia's interests be guaranteed and not be plundered by the enemy unscrupulously!

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Minister of War Alexey . Nikolaevich. Kuropatkin nodded. He also knows that Russia is now cornered, and if it can be accepted by China, this is undoubtedly the best way out for Russia. Then, as Tsar Nicholas II said, Russia should show their strength!

"In addition, the Western Front must also be stable, our main forces are fighting fiercely with the Chinese, I don't want the Austro-Hungarians to fight to Moscow first!" Nicholas II said! Austria-Hungary was also a great power, and now with the support of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, as well as the Kingdom of Bulgaria and Romania, its combat power was not to be underestimated. If the Germans had not sent the main forces to the Western Front, it would have been impossible for Russia to continue to hold out, and the immediate announcement of unconditional surrender was the last way out for Russia.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will send a telegram to General Brusilov! "War Minister Alexey . Nikolaevich. Kuropatkin said!

Subsequently, the Russian side solemnly sued Germany, Russia has not yet been defeated, and Germany wants to forcibly occupy Russian land, so take it yourself! Russia will entertain Germany with great force! In addition, the Russian army also began to move rapidly, and in addition to the troops sent to the Siberian Plain, some troops were also sent to other fronts. Obviously, Russia is ready for a big war with China and the Allies!

Kaiser Wilhelm II was very dissatisfied with Russia's answer, he thought that he was already very merciful to Russia, but he only planned to release Russia because of his relationship with Tsar Nicholas II when he was young! But the Russians don't know what to do, and they still want to resist!

"Humph! Nicky, I'll see how you survive this time! I'll deal with you when I've cleaned up the Gauls and Georges!" However, I hope you can resist the attack of the Chinese first! Wilhelm II said coldly! If it weren't for the fact that Germany's main forces were now on the Western Front, perhaps he would have sent troops to join the siege of Russia this time! It's just that for Germany, the most important thing is to defeat the Anglo-French alliance first and destroy France, as for Russia, it can only be let go first!

At the end of April, the Siberian Plain has already entered the chūn season, and the thick snow and ice have completely melted, and the roads that had become muddy due to the melting of the snow and ice have gradually dried out in the sun. It's just that for the Russians, they would rather the chūn season come a little later. Because after the chūn season comes, those Chinese will definitely attack them! It's been two years since the war began, but Russia is always losing! Now the Chinese have destroyed the United States and are ready to turn their guns against Russia! Almost all Russians believe that it is impossible for them to withstand the attack of the Chinese! The cold and long winter became their only barrier, and when the chūn season came, they had to face the tough Chinese!

Yekaterinburg, where the headquarters of the Russian army on the Siberian plain is located, where the commander of the Russian army, Grand Duke Nikolai, commanded the battle of more than two million Russian troops! It's just that the current Grand Duke Nicholas is not yet sixty years old, but he is already gray-haired! The original tall and sturdy figure also looks a little rickety! He was captured by the Chinese during the Battle of Baikal and eventually redeemed by Tsar Nicholas II, who led an army to suppress the rebellion of the Russian Labor Party. In Russia, it can be regarded as a great military achievement, and he has been promoted to marshal! However, Grand Duke Nicholas still has little confidence in this war!

Over the years, Grand Duke Nicholas has been trying to understand China's military power, but the more he knows, the more desperate he becomes! Although Russia is known as a steam roller, in the face of the evil Chinese dragon, Russia has no power to fight back! The Chinese were very strong on the North American battlefield, the armored assault of the army, the indiscriminate bombardment of the fighters of the air force, and the light yì defeated the Americans! Although some people think that it is the reason why the Americans are too weak, it is the reason why the Chinese are so light that they have won! However, Grand Duke Nikolai didn't think so, those Americans who were armed with jīng good weapons, even if they were weak, were at least stronger than the Russian army, which couldn't even get a rifle? Not to mention anything else, the Russian army does not even have many anti-tank guns to contain the armored forces of the Chinese army, and he really doesn't know how the Russian army will resist the steel torrent of the Chinese at that time! As for the air force, the Russian army only has some old 'Hurricane' 1 fighters supported by Britain and France. This fighter has proven that it is not at all the opponent of the advanced fighters of the Chinese, and once it goes to the sky, it will only become the result of the Chinese!

Although he had more than two million troops in his hands, Grand Duke Nicholas still had no confidence in this war! In his opinion, the outcome of this war is already doomed, and what he can probably do is to hold on as long as possible, and to keep as many Russians alive as possible!

Even if the Russians were unwilling to face the powerful Chinese, when the roads had been dried out, the Chinese attack began! (To be continued......)
