After Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Turkish Empire, the four allied countries, signed an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire, and reluctantly ceded land and paid reparations, the opponents of the Chinese Empire in this war were Russia and Japan.

In the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg, the capital of Russia, Tsar Nicholas II, Russian Finance Minister Witte and War Minister Gorrosky, these three Russian monarchs and ministers all had sad faces, and even Nicholas II, who had always been very tough on this war, knew that Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Turkish Empire had formally signed an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire, withdrew from the war, completely abandoned Russia, and instantly became much older.

Now the situation of this war is extremely dangerous for Russia, although in Asia there is still Japan has not withdrawn from this war, but it is beyond the reach of the whip, there is no longer an ally who can help Russia, Britain and France of the Entente were the first to abandon Russia and withdraw from this war, and now the four countries of the Allied Powers that originally insisted on also withdrawing from the war together, and the powerful coalition army has collapsed, leaving only the lonely Russia to face the powerful army of the Chinese Empire.

You must know that even the entire Entente and the Allied Powers together were not the opponents of the Chinese Imperial Army, and now there is only one Russian brother left, even a fool knows what kind of situation Russia will face, don't look at Tsar Nicholas II has been aggressively saying that he will fight with the Chinese Empire to the end and regain all the Russian territories occupied by the Chinese Empire, but when the 4 countries of the Central Powers really pick on their sons, Russia will become a loner. Tsar Nicholas II's heart was like falling into eighteen layers of hell, and fear and despair were intertwined. He also knew in his heart that relying on Russia alone would not be able to defeat the powerful army of the Chinese Empire.

Offensive and defensive battles that broke out before the Ural Mountains. Coupled with the Chinese Imperial Poison Gas Counterattack, the 3.9 million troops gathered by the Russian Army on the front line of the Ural Mountains were only about 2.2 million troops, and they withdrew to the vicinity of Ufa City, and the 2.2 million Russian Army retreated to the vicinity of Ufa City with less than 1,800 artillery pieces, as well as more than 200 tanks and more than 150 armored vehicles, and the Russian Air Force suffered very serious losses, originally the Russian Air Force had 187 fighters, counting more than 400 fighters obtained from Britain and France. So far, only 11 fighters have been left in the entire Russian Air Force, and they have been withdrawn directly to the airfield near Samara City, nearly a thousand kilometers west of Ufa City.

What made Nicholas II even more desperate was that Rasputin, who he had always believed to be the spokesman of the gods in the world, suddenly secretly escaped from the Winter Palace yesterday with a large amount of belongings, but was later stopped by the guards guarding the palace and then brought to Tsar Nicholas II. You must know that when Nicholas II launched the war against the Chinese Empire, there was a big reason because Rasputin said that the gods would protect Russia, and now that the war is like this, are you Rasputin ready to flee? What about the divine protection you are talking about?

Faced with the questioning of Nicholas II. Rasputin rightly said that the gods were because of the large number of atheists who were rampant in Russia, that is, the majority party in Russia. There is no longer a shelter for Russia, there is no protection for the gods in this war. Russia is bound to lose, and Rasputin will continue to stay in Russia without the protection of the gods. His mana would wane, so he was ready to leave Russia and go to a country protected by the gods.

Although Tsar Nicholas II had doubts about Rasputin, he still patted his chest and promised that he would eliminate those atheists in Russia as soon as possible, that is, the majority party that had always wanted to overthrow the Tsar's rule, but after appeasing Rasputin, the spokesman of the gods in the world, Tsar Nicholas II's heart also fell to the bottom.

Tsar Nicholas II saw that his two important ministers did not speak, and couldn't help but sigh and ask War Minister Gorrosky: "How many troops does our Russian army have to use in addition to the 2.2 million troops withdrawn to the vicinity of Ufa City?" ”

Gorrosky smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty the Tsar, we still have about 380,000 elite troops in the entire European region of the Russian Empire, which are deployed on the borders with European countries and several important cities, and our newly formed 40,000 army units are being trained in Samara City, except for the newly formed 40,000 army units in Samara City that can be mobilized, the other 380,000 elite troops are better not to be used, Moreover, even if these 420,000 land forces that our Russian Empire can only take out, and send them to join the 2.2 million troops near the city of Ufa, it will be difficult to stop the Chinese Imperial Army from continuing to advance into the hinterland of our Russian Europe, Your Majesty the Tsar, now that Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Turkish Empire have withdrawn from the war, the situation facing our Russian Empire is too serious. ”

At this time, the Chancellor of the Exchequer Witte hesitated, although he knew that Nicholas II did not want to listen, but Witte still gritted his teeth and said to Nicholas II: "Your Majesty the Tsar, now only our Russian Empire is left to face the Chinese Empire alone, and Japan, which is incomparably far away from our Russian Empire, our Russian Empire cannot count on it at all. On the contrary, our allied forces lost their armor and made our allies Britain and France sign armistice agreements with the Chinese Empire one after another, and now the four countries of the Allied Powers have also withdrawn from this war, so that our Russian Empire is a single country, and it does not have any advantage in the face of the Chinese Empire's army in terms of strength, so it will be even more difficult to resist the advance of the Chinese Imperial Army. ”

After speaking, the Chancellor of the Exchequer Witte was ready to bear the wrath of Tsar Nicholas II, after all, a few days ago Witte and Gorrosky persuaded Nicholas II to withdraw from this war, and was scolded by Nicholas II, who insisted on fighting a bloody war with the Chinese Empire to the end. There was no intention of compromising with the Chinese Empire.

However, to the surprise of Werther and the nearby Gorrosky, this time Werther finished speaking. Tsar Nicholas II did not get angry, as before, but abruptly changed the subject. Then he asked Gorrosky: "What is the current situation of the land forces of the four countries of the Central Powers in the territory of our Russian Empire?" How much did the army units of various countries lose on the front line of the Urals? How many army units of various countries withdrew to the vicinity of the city of Ufa? ”

Gorrowsky immediately said: "Tell Your Majesty the Tsar that the German Army will be on the front line of the Ural Mountains of our Russian Empire, a total of nearly 1.8 million troops, as well as tens of thousands of artillery pieces of various calibers, more than 400 warplanes, more than 700 tanks and more than 500 armored vehicles, and now the German Army can retreat to the vicinity of Ufa City There are only less than 1.3 million left, and there are less than 4,000 artillery pieces, more than 500 tanks and more than 400 armored vehicles. The German Air Force was as miserable as the Air Force of our Russian Empire, with only 14 of the more than 400 fighters remaining. It also flew to the airfield near the city of Samara in our Russian Empire, and about 280,000 of the 480,000 army troops gathered by Italy before the war could retreat to the vicinity of Ufa City, and only about 420,000 of the 735,000 army troops gathered by Austria-Hungary were successfully withdrawn to the vicinity of Ufa City, and only about 310,000 of the 535,000 army troops of the Ottoman Turkish Empire were withdrawn to the vicinity of Ufa City, and most of the heavy equipment of the Italian, Austrian, and Turkish armies were also lost. ”

After saying that, Gorrosky exchanged his eyes with the Chancellor of the Exchequer Witte, and it seemed that His Majesty the Tsar seemed to be somewhat relieved about ending the war. Otherwise, as Witte made such a clear suggestion just now to negotiate an armistice with the Chinese Empire, Tsar Nicholas II would definitely reprimand Witt, and even scolded Witte for a bloody squirt, and now His Majesty the Tsar is very calm. It also said that Nicholas II was not crazy enough to fight the whole of Russia with the Chinese Empire to the end, which made Gorrosky and Witte secretly relieved in their hearts.

Tsar Nicholas II said with a gloomy face: "In this way, we are a coalition of five countries in Russia, Germany, Italy, Austria and Turkey. On the front line of the Ural Mountains, an offensive was launched against the lines of the Chinese Imperial Army. Not only has there been no progress, but there has been a lot of loss. Combined, the army units of the five countries lost at least 2.94 million people. ”

Gorrosky nodded and said: "That's true, the losses of our five-nation coalition army have been close to 3 million, and His Majesty the Tsar, according to inaccurate information, the casualties of the Chinese Imperial Army are only less than 200,000, and more than half of them are the results we achieved in the first day of the poison gas attack, that is to say, the elite army units of more than 2.5 million deployed by the Chinese Empire on the front line of the Ural Mountains have not lost much, and they can continue to attack the hinterland of our Russian Empire in Europe in a short time. Our War Department is very pessimistic about relying solely on our Russian Imperial Army units to block the attack of the Chinese Imperial Army, so in order to preserve the vitality of our Russian Empire, the minister suggested that our Russian Empire should swallow its anger again, and wait for our Russian Empire to rearm its more powerful navy, land and air forces in the future, and then compete with the Chinese Empire! ”

After hearing this, Tsar Nicholas II let out a long sigh and said: "If we are defeated in this war, will our Russian Empire still have a chance to defeat the Chinese Empire again and regain the more than 16 million square kilometers of land lost by our Russian Empire?" You must know that after the Chinese Empire won this war, it got huge benefits from the hands of the various participating countries, especially the land, the Chinese Empire got more than 15 million square kilometers, if the Chinese Empire digested these lands, the strength will be even stronger, now our Russian Empire, plus the other 8 world powers are not the opponents of the Chinese Empire, in the face of a more powerful Chinese Empire in the future, can our Russian Empire still recover the seized land? ”

Chancellor of the Exchequer Witte said in a lonely voice: "Your Majesty the Tsar, in fact, now our Russian Empire should consider whether our Russian Empire can continue to exist in question!" If the Russian Empire continues to fight with the Chinese Empire, and if the minister says a disrespectful word, our Russian Empire is likely to be annexed by the Chinese Empire! This is definitely not alarmist, although the remaining army units of our Russian Empire add up to more than 2.6 million, but the strength of the Chinese Imperial Army units in the Ural Mountains alone is not much different from all the army units of our Russian Empire, and our Russian Empire for this war, it can be said that it has been squeezed dry, that is, the army will form new troops at all costs, and it will not be much in a short period of time, which is basically a drop in the bucket, and we should not forget, The regular troops of the Imperial Chinese Army are a behemoth with more than 7 million troops, and our Russian Empire is already standing on the edge of the precipice. ”

Tsar Nicholas II then did not speak for a long time, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer Witte and the Minister of War Gorrosky did not continue to persuade them, and they had already said what they should say and what they should not say, and now it was up to Nicholas II to make his own decisions.

After being silent for a long time, Tsar Nicholas II spoke: "You must know that the contradiction between our Russian Empire and the Chinese Empire is very serious, and in the final analysis, this war was also provoked by our Russian Empire, and now that the Chinese Empire has occupied a comprehensive advantage, and the Entente and other countries of the Central Powers have also withdrawn from this war, that is, our Russian Empire has taken the initiative to beg for peace with the Chinese Empire, will the Chinese Empire give up this opportunity to completely destroy our Russian Empire?" And it is the Chinese Empire that is willing to negotiate an armistice, what if the emperor of the Chinese Empire opens his mouth? ”

Gorrosky said: "Your Majesty the Tsar, our Russian Empire is not powerless at present, and the entire European region of the Russian Empire is basically still in our hands, not to mention more than 2.6 million army troops, Even if the population of our Russian Empire in Europe exceeds 120 million, the Chinese Empire also has to weigh it well, if the lion of the Chinese Empire opens his mouth and opens up the conditions that our Russian Empire cannot accept, the minister is willing to lead the remaining army units of our Russian Empire to fight with the Chinese Empire to the last man! ”

Witt also said: "Lin Daxin, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, should be very clear about what price the Chinese Empire will pay if he wants to destroy our Russian Empire, I believe that Lin Daxin will not do this easily, and the minister thinks that we can send negotiators to contact the Chinese Empire to see where the bottom line of the Chinese Empire is to end this war?" ”

Tsar Nicholas II smiled bitterly again, and then said very unwillingly: "Then do what you want!" Alas—" (To be continued.) )
