Soviet Russia wanted to trade space for time, use the lands of Siberia and Central Asia to drag China down, and buy time for them to defeat the White Army at home and foreign intervention forces. In the same way, the Chinese Empire did not want to really destroy Soviet Russia in one fell swoop. With the existence of Soviet Russia, the Western world will take Soviet Russia as the main spearhead of struggle, thus ignoring the Chinese Empire. Let Soviet Russia be the shield, and the Chinese Empire can take the opportunity to hide behind and reap the benefits, which is completely a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

Although, Emperor Wu Haoxuan believed that Soviet Russia would not really keep its promises. Once they have developed and possessed strong military power, they will inevitably return immediately and send troops to retake those lost territories. In the same way, the Chinese Empire was the same. As long as the country is really strong, it will definitely wave its army to attack Soviet Russia and destroy this most dangerous enemy in one fell swoop.

After the imperial army conquered half of Central Asia and Siberia, the emperor Wu Haoxuan had already ordered the Ministry of Communications to be responsible for exploring routes and building railways and roads. As long as the Empire's railways and roads were extended, the Empire was able to strengthen its control over these places. Once these areas were secured, the Imperial Army would be able to continue its advance westward without fear of compromising logistical supply lines.

"Your Majesty, although we have reached an agreement with Lao Maozi, this is just a verbal promise. Lao Maozi may break this promise at any time. Imperial Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi voiced his concerns.

"Lao Maozi is not a person who can speak honestly, even if we sign a treaty with them, it will not be about the same, but it may be true. In this way, the two sides can reach a consensus and form a tacit understanding when using troops in the future. Anyway, after the empire is really strong, it will not let go of Lao Maozi. The same. Lao Maozi will not give up those vast territories. Wu Haoxuan said.

Tang Shaoyi nodded and said nothing more. He knew that Wu Haoxuan had already considered it all.

"Your Majesty, now that we have recovered the Seven Rivers Region, Jaisampa, and the Ferghana Basin, it is time to establish new administrative divisions and administer these new territories." Imperial Prime Minister Yang Du said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded. Then he said: "My plan is to directly annex the territory east of the Aral Sea and north to the east of Astana into the empire and unify it as the province of Western Xinjiang. As for the Central Siberian Plateau in the north, after all the battles have been defeated, the Beihai Province will be established under its jurisdiction. These two provinces, although relatively large in area, are both vast and sparsely populated. ”

"Yes. Your Majesty. Yang Du nodded. In this case, it means that the cabinet will have to prepare candidates for the governors and vice-governors of the two provinces.

"As for the west of Xijiang Province and Beihai Province, the empire will not directly occupy it, but will support one or two forces in the local area and become a vassal state of the empire. The military and diplomacy of the vassal state must be in line with that of the empire. For the rest, just take the guidance of the Empire. Wu Haoxuan continued. It is impossible for the Chinese Empire to swallow up all the lands, those barren lands. There is not much point either, even if it is to mobilize migrants. I guess it's not good and it doesn't have any effect. In addition, the complex ethnic relations in the local area were enough to make the empire anxious. Rather than this, it would be better to establish these territories as vassal states of the empire, from which the empire could also be withdrawn.

Yang Du and Tang Shaoyi both nodded, thinking that what Wu Haoxuan said was a more feasible way.

"Your Majesty. General Chen of the Military Intelligence Agency asked to see him. "Zhao Hu, the chief of the guard, came to report.

"Well, it's going to be announced." Wu Haoxuan nodded.

Wu Haoxuan knew that Chen Xudong must have informed him of the progress of the matter he asked to investigate this time.

After Admiral Chen Xudong came in, he first saluted Wu Haoxuan respectfully. Then the situation was announced.

"Your Majesty, we have received definite information that the family of Nicholas II has arrived in Yekaterinburg. However, the local Bolshevik forces did not seem to intend to let them go. Admiral Chen Xudong said.

"It seems that Nicholas II and his family may not be able to escape this time." Wu Haoxuan said.

After the revolution in Russia, he asked the Military Intelligence Agency to pay attention to the situation of the Tsar's family. For nothing else, the wealth accumulated by successive tsars is an astronomical amount. If these riches fall into the hands of Soviet Russia, it will undoubtedly increase the strength of Soviet Russia. If the empire can obtain it, it can also further increase the speed of the empire's development. Under the trade-off, the gap between the empire and Soviet Russia will become wider and wider.

In addition, Wu Haoxuan was interested in creating a buffer zone between Soviet Russia and the empire, and what could be more hostile to Soviet Russia than a country ruled by Romanov people? If the Chinese Empire supports the restoration of the Romanov dynasty, presumably those Russians who support the Tsar will probably gather. At that time, the attention of Soviet Russia will also be fully shifted to the Romanov dynasty, and they will definitely not dare to attack the empire until the Romanov dynasty is destroyed. And the empire, it only needs to provide the Romanov dynasty with some support in terms of weaponry and armament. Let Soviet Russia shed more blood on the Romanov dynasty, which will also help the empire to destroy Soviet Russia at a smaller cost in the future.

As for the candidate for the restoration of the Romanov dynasty, the children of Tsar Nicholas II are undoubtedly the most suitable. As long as the empire can save one from the Ergen, it will be equivalent to having a bargaining chip. By helping them to regain their country, they can also achieve the goal of controlling the country.

"Your Majesty, our agents and special forces have infiltrated Yekaterinburg and are ready to attack and rescue the Tsar." Admiral Chen Xudong continued.

"I intend to create a Russian empire on the Western Siberian Plain, with someone from the Russian royal family as the new tsar, so that a stable buffer zone will be formed between us and Soviet Russia. In addition, we can also weaken Soviet Russia by controlling the Russian Empire. Wu Haoxuan said.

"Your Majesty, this is a good idea. Let Soviet Russia and Tsarist Russia go dog-eat-dog, and we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. Yang Du said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Russia has always been one of the greatest enemies of the Empire. If Russia could be divided into Soviet Russia and Tsarist Russia, then their threat to the empire would be minimized. Tang Shaoyi also said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded: "General Chen, order our people to do it and find a way to rescue the Tsar's children." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Admiral Chen Xudong nodded, he already understood what Wu Haoxuan meant. Wu Haoxuan asked to be rescued by the Tsar's children, not the Tsar himself.

The Tsar's children, the eldest Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna, were only twenty-three years old. As for the crown prince of Russia, Alexei Nikolayevich Romanov, is now 14 years old. At the same time, he has hemophilia and is weak.

These little children, naturally, are easier to control than the Tsar. After rescuing these children, it is completely possible to use the banner of recovering their country and let them go against Soviet Russia.

Nicholas II was probably the most unlucky of the tsars, at the beginning of the world war, Nicholas II had just held a grand commemoration of the 300th anniversary of the dynasty, and within four years, the heavy losses caused the ancient Romanov dynasty to completely collapse. Perhaps, even Nicholas II did not expect that this war would directly collapse his country.

At the beginning, the abdicated family of Nicholas II was imprisoned in the Tsarskoye Village in St. Petersburg. In August, the family was escorted to Tobolsk, a small town in Western Siberia. In October, Lenin led the Bolsheviks to overthrow the Provisional Government, and all power was vested in Soviet Russia. When the news reached Tobolsk, the Tsar's family was not too surprised, because neither the Provisional Government nor the Bolsheviks would allow the Romanov dynasty to be restored. However, after the Bolsheviks took power, the situation at home and abroad changed dramatically, and at first, the Russian regime only controlled a few large cities such as Moscow and Petersburg, and the rest of the vast areas were in a tug-of-war between Soviet Russia and anti-Soviet Russia.

Soon after the Russian took over the Tsar imprisoned in Tobolsk, the White Army advanced into the Urals, and Tobolsk was in a hurry, so the Central Committee of Soviet Russia decided to transfer the Tsar to Yekaterinburg, but soon, Yekaterinburg was surrounded by the White Army, and this tension became the beginning of the bloody ending of the Tsar's family.

At two o'clock in the morning on July 17, 4616 (18), 12 gunners of the Russian firing squad entered the room on the first floor of a merchant's house in Yekaterinaburg, and the captain of the guard began to read the verdict of Soviet Russia in the Ural region to the Tsar and his family: In view of the fact that Tsar Nicholas II's relatives in Europe continued to invade Soviet Russia, the Executive Committee of Soviet Russia in the Ural Region has issued an order to execute the Tsar, his family and his entourage .......

"Shooting? Why? Why do this to us? "Nicholas II did not expect such an outcome.

"Oh God! Why kill us? We've already handed over the power in our hands, so why can't we be spared? Queen Alexandra cried.

Although the Tsar and his wife and their five children kept crying and pleading, it did not help at all. God doesn't seem to be able to help them at this time.

"Please, let them go. They're still kids! Queen Alexandra cried.

However, the executioners paid no heed.

"Execution." The captain of the guard gave the order.

The revolvers in the hands of the gunmen of the firing squad opened fire.

"Ahh A scream rang out, and Tsar Nicholas II was the first to be hit and killed with one shot. (To be continued.) )
