The news of the crisis on the east bank of the Yenisei had already shocked Alexander III, and this time even Milyukin felt that it was more difficult than ever. Although he expected Dragomilov's defeat, he never imagined that it would be such a defeat.

Today is the day when Skobelev went to report to the commander of the Warsaw Military District, Gurko, but the chaos in front of him made Skobelev a little baffled, Gurko saw him at this time, sighed, and just said: "Your Majesty, and Lord Milyugin transferred three divisions from our military district to Novosibirsk. ”

Skobelev was stunned for a moment, and then his face was shocked.

"You think right, the Far East is completely lost, the Eastern Route Army of the Northeast Insurance Corps is secretly divided into two routes, from the north and the south, directly behind our defense line on the west bank of the Yenisei River, if it is not for Dragomirov's quick response, all our troops on the front line will be surrounded by the Northeast Insurance Corps."

"How much is the loss?" Skobelev's face was pale, and most of the Russian troops in the Far East were his original subordinates, many of whom had served him since the conquest of Central Asia. Together we have shed blood, suffered hardships, fought defeats, and tasted victory. The feelings cultivated in life and death are naturally extraordinary.

"No one has returned on the east bank of the Yenisei River, and although the fighting there is not over, it is ...... Of the six corps in the West Bank, only 100,000 men returned to Novosibirsk, and the rest were either besieged in the northeast or scattered. Even by the most optimistic estimates, fewer than 20,000 people will eventually return to the army. ”

Hearing this, Skobelev's eyes straightened, his head suddenly dizzy, and then he fell on his back.

When Gurko saw this, he immediately shouted: "Come quickly, call the doctor." ”

However, it was too late, and Skobelev had already taken his last breath before the doctors arrived. In the history before Wang Yi traveled, Skobelev died in 1882 at the age of thirty-nine. Although it is not a short life in this era, it is not a long life either. And after Wang Yi crossed, because he had been fighting on the Far Eastern front, he did not return to St. Petersburg and died of illness as in his previous life. However, whether these five extra years of life is a good thing or a bad thing for him, I'm afraid even he can't tell. After all, in later history, he died in the endless honor of pacifying Turkmenistan in Central Asia, he was an infantry general of the empire, and his personal military theories were admired, even under the other European army powers of the same period. And now he was not only dismissed from his official position, but also called a coward by Dragomilov in front of the Tsar. This is tantamount to the greatest humiliation for a general like him. And it was this person who described him as a coward, but he completely buried his hard work in the Far Eastern battlefield with his own hands. Life has changed from a comedy of smooth sailing to a tragedy of ups and downs, although according to later theories, tragedy is considered to be more dramatic. But for Skobelev himself, it should not be so. The only thing to be gratifying about now is that he doesn't know the previous history, otherwise his resentment towards Wang Yi may make him die blindly.

Skobelev's death did not attract much attention in the era of war and panic in Russia, and His Majesty the Tsar just sighed, and then gave the descendants of the imperial hero a certain amount of bereavement, and then let several young people in his family serve in the army. When Milyugin heard the news of his death, he was somewhat distracted, and stood alone in front of the window, looking at the wheat fields in the manor, and did not speak for a long time. As for the rest of the Russian Empire, they should eat, drink, and live in the shadow of the Northeast like ostriches hiding their heads and tails.

Although he was mentally prepared for the impact of the victory, the subsequent fluctuations in the world still caught Tohoku by surprise. In Europe, which is the center of the world today, except for Germany, the rest of the countries have set off a yellow * curse theory. Britain and Russia were linked to France and Russia, as well as old European powers with colonies in the South China Sea.

If the previous defeat of France can still be said to be an expedition of laborers and poor logistics, then the war between the Northeast and Russia in recent years is a real head-to-head confrontation with a European power. Russia, however, was defeated, defeated. Although the relations between these European countries are not harmonious or even hostile in peacetime, the defeat of their opponents has also given them a deep stimulus. As the motherland of the Northeast Autonomous Region, the Qing Dynasty's successive defeats in the Opium War in the past few decades have made Westerners ideologically label this eastern power as the sick man of East Asia.

Although Russia has only lost its territory and is not yet at the point of losing the country, it is really unexpected for the Northeast Autonomous Region to take this polar bear sacrifice flag that all Europeans think of when they think of it. Everyone had to admire the vision of the Northeast, to see the weakness of the Russians, and the eastern and central parts were a mess.

Although in previous years, progress was made in the war against Russia, but the number of migrants in the eastern territories of Russia was calculated in thousands. After the Opium Wars and before the rise of the Northeast, Russia emigrated a total of 6,000 people to the major frontier regions of the Far East, and for a long time after that, the migration came to a standstill. If it weren't for the fact that the news of the discovery of gold deposits in the northeast of the Qing Dynasty had a slight stimulating effect, I am afraid that there would not even be this person.

Therefore, although the Europeans were surprised by the early victory of the Northeast against Russia, they did not find it difficult to accept. However, as the pace of expansion of the Northeast Insurance Corps gradually expanded westward, the Russians on Russian territory, as well as other servant peoples such as the Cossacks, were counted at first in the thousands, then in the hundreds, and then in the millions, and then in the millions.

The victory of the Northeast Insurance Team in such a place means that the armed forces of the Northeast can now compete with the vast majority of European powers on land without falling behind. It is probably because the Mongol attack left too much impression on the Europeans, and the northeast, which now also owns Mongolian land, is also described by the current European pessimists as the second Mongolia.

Under the aura of war, the Northeast has become the embodiment of Satan, and Europe is as pure as a stripped little girl, and in the face of the devil's possible invasion at any time, the media and newspapers have been screaming hysterically.
