Chapter 750: The Deflated German Emperor
In the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City in Beijing, the capital of the Chinese Empire, Lin Daxin, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, soon learned that the German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish allied forces had carried out a poison gas attack on the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire on the front line of the Ural Mountains.
The four important ministers of the Chinese Empire had just come to the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City, and before they had time to salute Lin Daxin, Li Kun, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, was scolded by Lin Daxin.
"What do you MIA do for food? Every year, the Treasury allocates so much money to your military intelligence agency, you must use all the money in Java! Even such important information, there is no news at all, do you know that on the front line of the Ural Mountains, nearly 100,000 officers and soldiers of our Royal Army of the Chinese Empire were poisoned by the poisonous gas of the coalition forces, and more than 30,000 officers and soldiers died. What's the use of spending so much money on your MIA every year! Lin Daxin pointed at Li Kun and shouted loudly, shouting Li Kun in a cold sweat, and he didn't even dare to say a word of justification.
Wang Yan saw Lin Daxin's angry appearance, and opened his mouth to persuade: "The emperor is angry, the strength of our intelligence department in Europe has always been relatively weak, this time the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey, for the sake of the suddenness of the poison gas attack, must be strictly secret, and it is indeed difficult for our intelligence department to obtain this important information, and now the important thing is that our Chinese empire must immediately launch a counterattack, so that the five countries coalition forces can also taste the power of poison gas." ”
Lin Daxin gritted his teeth and said: "I will definitely not let go of the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey this time, Ziyu, immediately dispatch poison gas shells to the front line of the Ural Mountains, and all mustard gas shells, the number must be enough!" I didn't want to use those more vicious weapons, but this time the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey have opened Pandora's box. Then let's let the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey know how terrible the gas war is and how stupid their actions are. ”
Wu Peifu nodded and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this time our Royal Army must let the 5-nation alliance know why the flowers are so red!" ”
Lin Daxin also said to Shen Peng, director of the Secret Bureau: "Your Secret Bureau must ensure that this batch of mustard gas shells is safely transported to the front line in the Ural Mountains. We must not allow any accidents to occur in the domestic transportation of mustard gas shells! ”
Shen Peng nodded and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, our Secret Bureau will send a large number of people to closely protect every mustard gas cannonball, and there will definitely be no problems." ”
Then Lin Daxin snorted coldly, and said to Li Kun, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau: "Your Military Intelligence Bureau immediately mobilized all forces in Europe to monitor the situation of the railways of the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey. ”
Li Kun hurriedly nodded and said, "Our military intelligence bureau immediately mobilized all the forces in Europe. If we are guilty of meritorious service, we must closely monitor the railway situation in various European countries, and absolutely never let a single shell be transported to the front line in the Ural Mountains. ”
Lin Daxin waved his hand and said: "I also know that the intelligence force of our Chinese Empire in Europe is not strong, and I will not be strong, I don't need your military intelligence bureau to blow up all the allied gas shells, just need your military intelligence bureau to try to make the coalition gas shells less to the front line in the Ural Mountains." ”
Li Kun nodded with a look of shame, this time the 5-nation coalition army launched a poison gas attack on the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire in the Ural Mountains. The Military Intelligence Agency (MIA) was very responsible, and more than 30,000 officers and soldiers were killed in poison gas attacks. There were still more than 60,000 officers and soldiers who were injured to varying degrees, and Li Kun felt very remorseful in his heart, if the Military Intelligence Bureau had known in advance about the poison gas attack plan of the five-nation coalition forces, at least there would not have been such a large number of casualties, and it was natural for Lin Daxin to angrily reprimand the Military Intelligence Bureau.
Wu Peifu said at this time: "Your Majesty, Ni Fan sent a telegram saying. A large number of 105-mm howitzers and 155-mm heavy howitzers have been drawn from the 12 main armies of the second and third lines of defense and reserves in the Ural Mountains to strengthen the first line of defense, even if the 5-nation coalition forces continue to carry out poison gas attacks, the artillery units of our Royal Army. In addition, the logistics department of our Royal Army has urgently mobilized a batch of protective clothing transport planes to the front line of the Ural Mountains, and even if the five-nation coalition forces fire mustard gas shells, as long as they have protective clothing, they will not be harmed. ”
Wang Yan continued: "We have prepared a large number of medicines for the treatment of poison gas, and we have also used transport planes to transport them to the front line in the Ural Mountains, and we will also give the most generous compensation to the officers and soldiers who were killed and injured this time." ”
Lin Daxin sighed and said: "I never expected that the 5-nation coalition would dare to use poison gas, I knew what mercy I was still thinking about, and directly carried out poison gas warfare against the 5-nation coalition forces, and even against the allied forces of the Entente and the Allied countries, maybe now this war, our Chinese empire has long ended in victory, and now nearly 100,000 officers and soldiers have suffered from poison gas, in addition to the officers and soldiers who died, those injured officers and soldiers, many of them will suffer from this injury for life." ”
The news that the German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish forces suddenly carried out a poison gas war against the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire in the Ural Mountains soon spread all over the world, and Britain and France suddenly understood why Russia asked for gratuitous aid from their two countries a while ago, plus a large number of gas masks, turned out to be preparations for gas warfare, after all, the Chinese Empire had the intelligence of poison gas, and the whole world knew very well.
Now that you are suddenly carrying out poison gas warfare against others, it is impossible for them to act as if it had not happened, and they will definitely retaliate against the German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish allied forces with color, and the most direct retaliation is to carry out poison gas attacks on the allied forces of the five countries, so that the gas masks demanded from Britain and France will be useful.
Although Britain and France have signed an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire, the resentment of the two countries towards the Chinese Empire is very, very great, and Britain and France have coincidentally increased their support for Russia, an ally of the Entente powers, and increased the free aid of a variety of war materials, such as the more than 400 fighters that supported the Russian Air Force a while ago, and left the weapons and equipment of the troops withdrawn from Russia to the Russian Army. As well as the large number of gas masks given to Russia this time, anyway, in order to make trouble for the Chinese Empire, Britain and France can be described as exhausted.
Britain and France saw that the five-nation coalition forces suddenly fired poison gas shells at the Chinese Imperial Army in the Ural Mountains, and in addition to being excited about the heavy losses of the Chinese Imperial Army, they could not help but have great worries about the millions of army units of the five-nation coalition forces on the front line of the Ural Mountains. After all, the Chinese Empire is at the world's leading level in the development of poison gas.
After being attacked by poison gas, the army of the Chinese Empire is likely to retaliate against the five-nation coalition forces even more vigorously, in that case, perhaps the war in the Ural Mountains will be even more unfavorable to the five-nation coalition forces, unless the five-nation alliance forces can take advantage of the suddenness of the poison gas war to break through the three lines of defense of the Chinese imperial army in the Ural Mountains in one fell swoop.
Japan raised its hands in support of the poison gas attack by the five-nation coalition, and then Japan also began to increase the scale of poison gas production. Once the troops of the Chinese Empire landed on the Japanese mainland, the Japanese army units could also launch poison gas attacks on the Chinese Imperial Army, but the Japanese very much hoped that the five-nation coalition forces could rely on the poison gas attack to overcome the three lines of defense of the Chinese Imperial Army in the Ural Mountains and advance the war to the east of the Ural Mountains, which would be very advantageous for Japan.
The United States learned that the Chinese Imperial Army had suffered very heavy losses under the poison gas attack of the five-nation coalition forces. I am also very happy, after all, the United States has just suffered a big loss from the Chinese Empire. Even the whole of Alaska was snatched away by the Chinese Empire.
The United States hopes that the five-nation coalition will use poison gas as a weapon of mass destruction for the Chinese Empire to break through the three lines of defense of the Chinese Imperial Army in the Ural Mountains, and even if the five-nation coalition defeats the Chinese Empire, there is nothing left for the United States, but the Americans will be extremely happy to see that the Chinese Empire is unlucky.
However, Britain, France, Japan, and the United States, these countries are looking forward to the help of the five-nation coalition with the help of poison gas. On May 16, 1909, the Five-Power Coalition launched another large-scale poison gas attack on the first line of defense of the Imperial Chinese Army in the Ural Mountains at night, but then the artillery positions of the allied forces fired poison gas shells were launched. It encountered a carpet shelling by a large number of large-caliber artillery pieces of the Imperial Chinese Army, so that the artillery units of the five-nation coalition army did not successfully fire many poison gas shells at the defense line of the Imperial Chinese Army on the night of the 16th.
In addition, the officers and men of the Imperial Chinese Army were prepared for anti-gas warfare, and Germany's most advanced mustard gas shells were exhausted in the poison gas attack yesterday, that is, on the 15th, which made the poison gas attack of the five-nation coalition forces on the night of the 16th not produce much effect.
However, relying on the strong attack of the land forces of the 5-nation coalition army regardless of casualties, before dawn on the 17th, the 5-nation coalition forces finally occupied a few small pieces of the forward positions of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire after paying the price of more than 100,000 troops.
Subsequently, on May 17, the German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish allied forces still used poison gas attacks, but the effect became worse and worse, and the five countries of the coalition had learned through different channels that the Chinese Empire had urgently transported a large amount of poison gas to the front line of the Ural Mountains, and it was basically very terrifying mustard gas.
In the imperial palace in Berlin, Germany, the German Emperor Wilhelm II said to German Prime Minister Hohenlohe, Chief of the Army General Staff Schlieffen and Navy Minister Tirpitz with a depressed face: "Now our German army in the Ural Mountains is facing a very bad situation, the poison gas attack of the Chinese Imperial Army by the Five-Nation Allied Forces did not achieve the expected results, but caused very big trouble to the Five-Nation Allied Army. The number was enough to wipe out millions of coalition forces throughout the Ural Mountains. ”
Prime Minister Hohenlohe sighed and persuaded: "Your Majesty, now we have thought of all the ways we can come up with, but we are not yet able to turn the tide of the war on the front line in the Ural Mountains, according to the Chen's suggestion, we Germany should also immediately sign an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire to end this war with no hope of victory, and it is no longer of much sense to continue to hold on, and our more than 1 million elite German army troops in the Ural Mountains will also be in great danger." ”
If Chancellor Hohenlohe had dared to persuade the German Emperor Wilhelm II like this, Wilhelm II would have reprimanded Prime Minister Hohenlohe, but this time Hohenlohe said it, Wilhelm II fell into a short silence.
At this time, Prime Minister Hohenlohe, Chief of the Army General Staff Schlieffen and Admiral Tirpitz saw that Wilhelm II did not immediately refute, and immediately looked at each other, and then Schlieffen and Tirpitz also opened their mouths to persuade Wilhelm II, hoping that Germany could end the war as soon as possible.
Wilhelm II is not stupid, he also knows that after the gas war of the 5-nation coalition is ineffective, the 5-nation coalition will face the consequences, although he has gritted his teeth and insisted on not letting Germany withdraw from the war against the Chinese Empire for the sake of his own face and prestige in Germany, but after the 5-nation gas war is equal to failure, Wilhelm II has seen the crisis in Germany.
After Wilhelm II weighed his face and the severity of Germany's safety in his heart, he was already discouraged.
"Is there really no other way?" Wilhelm II heard that the three important German ministers kept persuading him to let Germany withdraw from the war, and he couldn't help but ask in a very lonely voice.
"Your Majesty, it's time to withdraw from this war!"
"Your Majesty, now on the front line of the Ural Mountains, after the poison gas attack carried out by our German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish allied forces, the results achieved are very unsatisfactory, in order to prevent more than 1 million officers and soldiers of our German Army from being attacked by the powerful poison gas of the Chinese Empire on the front line, I think that our Germany must withdraw from this war as soon as possible and sign an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire, even if the conditions are harsh, it doesn't matter!"
"Your Majesty, it must be time to make a decision, any later, the more than 1 million elite troops of our German Army on the front line of the Ural Mountains will be very dangerous!"
The three important ministers of Germany are still persistently persuading the German Emperor Wilhelm II that he must hurry up to end this war. (To be continued.) )
