In Qing Ying's planning, the Eastern Question was undoubtedly an established national policy that he had planned since the end of the last war. The New Russian Empire, with Alexei at its core, will assume the task of dominating the fighting peoples of the East, and Germany will use it as a carrier to extend its influence from Ukraine to the Urals. When the shape of the European subjects was basically calmed, Germany could even support the son's eastward invasion of Siberia, thus extending the Tsar's power back to Asia - the economic kidnapping would make the newborn Russia completely dependent on the will of Germany, and the additional land, resources, and population would become the potential wealth of Germany. In addition, Qing Ying had another hidden consideration in his heart, and that was to prepare for a possible future war against Japan through this action. Strategic bombers taking off from Vladivostok could easily cover the entire territory of Japan, and once the shape changed, they could settle the situation in an instant.

Based on these considerations, the Lend-Lease Act, which was intended to assist the "Russian Restoration Army," was soon signed by the German government and the latter's delegation. Germany was to supply Imperial Russia with all kinds of military supplies at normal prices, and any weapons other than nuclear bombs were to be sold openly to the latter; The funds used by the Imperial Russia to pay for these equipment will be temporarily recorded in the form of arrears, and after it recovers its old land, it will be repaid with shares in the real economy such as mines, railways, and factories. With this act, Germany's surplus munitions had a way to vent, and the Imperial Russian government received the war equipment they needed most; Those trains that rumbled to the east laden with munitions were the perfect mourners to bury that Red Empire in the grave!

"I've never seen so much equipment and supplies. A special train pulled by three locomotives stopped on the platform, and nearly 40 flatbed trucks were carrying all dark gray steel tanks. After counting, there were as many as 76 vehicles; Look around. It's like a giant dragon crawling in our station. Armed with long-barreled 88 mm guns, these German Type IV tanks boasted extremely superior performance. Mythical victories have been fought on the northern front, with few of the Red Devils able to penetrate their frontal defenses. Originally, such cutting-edge tanks accounted for only a very small number of our army, but we did not expect that they would suddenly be transported to us in large quantities! On July 14 alone, we received two tank transport trains, totaling more than 150 units; Equipment such as trucks and heavy artillery came in large quantities that even exceeded our unloading capacity. It was only later that I learned that the Germans had reached an aid agreement with the Reich, and that these large quantities of munitions had arrived. It will also promote the rapid completion of the empire's Northern Expedition. Likatov, the head of the largest railway junction in the Don River basin, recalled afterwards.

A week later, the impact of these supplies on the eastern battlefield was felt. The logistical support of the Imperial Russian Restoration Army suddenly turned sufficient, and thousands of artillery shells were thundered and lightning, as if they did not want money, and swept away towards the Red Russian army; The defensive positions, which were once regarded as strong and solid, have now been bombarded and shattered, and the Red Russian officers and soldiers have suffered heavy casualties under the thunder and artillery fire of this day, and the dead bodies in khaki military uniforms can be seen everywhere in trenches, foxholes and other fortifications. However, few of them dared to slip away like their American counterparts. Not to mention whether those vigilantes who are as poisonous as snakes and scorpions and as vicious as jackals will spare their lives from the gunpoint, their own family members and relatives who are always under the supervision of the authorities also make the grassroots officers and soldiers on the front line dare not have the slightest disobedience to orders from the top. This "tactic" of setting up warlords and holding their families hostage, pioneered by Trotsky in modern European warfare, was carried forward by the succession of his fatherly leader. Although the Red Russian regime was already in a precarious situation of internal and external difficulties, their soldiers were still holding back the Imperial Russian army.

But this time. The Red Bolsheviks, on the other hand, were not as lucky as they had been 20 years ago. The gap in their hard power could no longer be compensated for by pushing more cannon fodder onto the battlefield: the Imperial Russian army was constantly galloping through the guò armored forces, loading one Red Russian unit after another into the encirclement. The resistance of the Red Russian soldiers in panic and despair will not do any substantial help to the whole situation, and they can only add a cruel and bloody part of the whole battlefield by dying here. The victors used their upright tracks and hard leather boots to crush the mutilated flesh and blood of the Red Russian soldiers into the soil; After the battle, its various arms merged into sharp swords and attacked at will, where the Red Russian army was weak.

On July 31, the Imperial Russian army had advanced to Orel, just over 300 kilometers from Moscow, the heart of the Red Empire. If the armored forces were allowed to advance at full speed, it would take less than a week to reach the city of Moscow. As an important stronghold in the Kursk region, the fortifications of Orel and its surrounding suburbs were completely impregnable: they were crisscrossed with trenches, densely packed with mines, various anti-tank bunkers and machine-gun positions were carefully camouflaged, and enough food and ammunition for seven divisions of defenders to hold out for more than half a year was hoarded in the city. According to the predictions of the Red Army High Command, the main forces of the Imperial Russian White Army would be tied up in this great fortress for at least 3 months; By then, the autumn rainy season had already arrived, and the momentum of the enemy's offensive would inevitably plummet with the sharp deterioration of the roads, and he would have a precious respite from rearmament.

However, with the steady arrival of German military aid, this strategic concept of the Red Army High Command was completely frustrated. In the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, Germany was able to send artillery and ammunition directly to the front line 300 kilometers away, and when the Imperial Russian army received this aid, it immediately launched an earth-shattering thunderous bombardment of the heavily defended city of Red Russia. They fired 200,000 rounds of artillery shells a day at the opposing positions, almost all of which were more than 100 mm in caliber, and the dense rate of knockdown like a ground explosion star, one felt as if it were preparing for artillery fire in the trench warfare on the Western Front a quarter of a century ago. This level of firepower was clearly beyond the capacity of the Red Russian troops, and their fortifications and positions were soon torn apart like sand banks by the roaring tide; By the time the Imperial Russian army launched its full-front offensive two weeks later, the Red Russian forces had already lost most of their resistance under the baptism of nearly 3 million shells.

After four days of fierce street fighting, the Imperial Russian army smashed open the outer gates to Moscow in a simple and brutal way. The Red Russian troops stationed in and around the city of Orel were almost completely wiped out, and only a very small number of soldiers were able to escape: because of the orders given by the Red Army top brass not to retreat, most of their soldiers were buried with the city without the slightest chance of escaping. The Red Army Command, furious, realized that a third party was involved in their civil war: with the strength of the Southern Empire, it was impossible to afford to consume so much ammunition in a city storm! And this also confirms the urgent battle reports sent back by the forward units a few days ago about the sudden increase in the number of enemy firepower and technical weapons!

"Despicable and shameless German imperialism, they will pay a terrible price for their actions today!" In the major cities still under the control of the Bolshevik government, Pravda, the only official publication allowed to be published, cried out. After all, there is no semicolon in the whole world except for his Kaiser's father-in-law in Berlin, who has the ability and willingness to come to the aid of the Imperial Russian regime on a large scale. However, compared with the sonorous and fierce denunciations in the newspapers, the senior Soviet and Russian officials who had learned the inside story were worried: Now that the war in North America has subsided, Germany no longer has any worries, and once they are allowed to devote all their energy to supporting the imperial Russian regime, even if they do not send troops directly, it will definitely be a heavy blow that they cannot bear at present!

In this red empire, which was already on the verge of collapse, those officials in important positions took the lead in arranging a way back for themselves. A large amount of gold and silver was sent abroad in advance for storage, and once the shape was wrong, he could immediately escape with his mistress. Due to the absolute centralization of power in the absence of regulation, corruption in Soviet Russia has become extremely strict in the past 20 years of peace; Cadres with heavy power can easily earn a black income thousands of times higher than their own salary, and this is undoubtedly far more than those powerful rats of the imperial Russian period who were angrily denounced by the Red Russian press. When the donations of the privileged class escaped, only the poor people, who had been enslaved and deceived, were left; After a sober epiphany, no matter how much they shed blood and tears of remorse and anger, their losses will never be made up!

On 17 September, the frenzied Russian army reached Tula, 170 kilometers south of Moscow. Some veterans of the Imperial Russian War, who had participated in the civil war, were thrilled in the face of this familiar battlefield: twenty years ago, the White Guards under the command of Denikin were stopped by the other side in this area, which ultimately made the Northern Expedition fall short, and now, his own army has returned to this battlefield in a state of rebirth. This time, there was undoubtedly a fundamental difference between the situation and the previous one: the Imperial Russian army, which had the full support of Germany, was strong and strong, and they were already determined to win the city.

Despite the best efforts of the Red Russian soldiers in this defensive battle, they were routed a month later by enemy forces armed with an almost endless supply of equipment. The road to Moscow was completely opened, and the national glory of the Red Empire entered its final countdown moment. (To be continued......)
