On May 23, 1909, in the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City in Beijing, the capital of the Chinese Empire, Premier Wang Yan reported to Lin Daxin: "I would like to inform the Emperor that the German consul in Macao has arrived in Beijing and hopes to negotiate an armistice with our Chinese Empire, and that Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Turkish Empire also want to end this war and are willing to negotiate an armistice with our Chinese Empire. On the way to Beijing, only Russia did not have any intention of armistice. ”

Lin Daxin snorted coldly, and said with a disdainful face: "Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey are on the front line of the Ural Mountains, and have just carried out a brutal poison gas attack on the troops of our Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, and in the 3-day gas war, the number of casualties in our Royal Army has exceeded 40,000, and the wounded who have suffered from the gas damage are more than 60,000, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world! ”

On the night of May 15, 16 and 17, 1909, the German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish allied forces launched a three-day poison gas attack on the first line of defense of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire in the Ural Mountains, but except for the night of the 15th, because the defenders of the first line of defense of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire did not guard against large losses, the remaining two days, the poison gas attack of the five allied forces did not bring much loss to the five main forces of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, the first line of defense.

On the night of the 15th, Germany's most advanced mustard gas shells were almost consumed, and some of them were fired at the first line of positions of the Imperial Chinese Army. Some of them were destroyed by the large-caliber howitzers of the Imperial Chinese Army on the positions of the German artillerymen themselves, as for the other chlorine and phosgene shells of the Allied forces. And because the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Chinese Army were all equipped with gas masks, and lost their suddenness. It was unable to inflict heavy casualties on the troops of the Imperial Chinese Army guarding the first line of defense in the Ural Mountains as it did on the night of the 15th.

What made the five-nation coalition forces even more speechless was that during the poison gas attack on the night of the 16th and the night of the 17th, the artillery units of the five-nation coalition had just fired a few poison gas shells at the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, which was the first line of defense in the Ural Mountains, and they would be covered by the large-caliber artillery of the Imperial Chinese Army.

As a result, the poison gas war carefully planned by the five-nation coalition had to end hastily after only three days. In addition, the troops of the 5-nation coalition army also temporarily stopped the attack on the first line of defense of the Ural Mountains of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, and the millions of troops of the 5-nation coalition began to prepare nervously to meet the counterattack of the Chinese Empire's poison gas warfare, and various preparations were made for this.

Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Turkish Empire were not even prepared to continue this war in order not to suffer from the poisonous gas attack of the Chinese Empire's retaliation, but looking at the meaning of the Chinese Emperor Lin Daxin, it seems that they will not easily let go of these countries that dare to use poison gas.

Wang Yan, the prime minister of the cabinet, listened to Lin Daxin's words, nodded approvingly and said: "These countries should be allowed." We have learned a hard lesson, our Chinese Empire has repeatedly ordered that all countries will not be allowed to use poison gas in war, and the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey have taken the warning of our Chinese Empire as a deaf ear, if this time we do not give the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey a profound memory. Where does the prestige of our Chinese empire exist! ”

Immediately, Lin Daxin turned his head to Wu Peifu, the Minister of Defense in the Qianqing Palace, and asked: "How are our air forces and artillery preparing on the front line of the Ural Mountains now?" ”

Wu Peifu said: "As long as the emperor gives an order, the fighters of our Royal Air Force and the artillery units of our Royal Army. Immediately launch a large-scale poison gas attack on the forces of the 5-nation coalition west of the Ural Mountains, the poison gas we used this time. It's all mustard gas, and it's very powerful. Our Ministry of Defense is even confident that it will defeat the main force of the five-nation coalition in one fell swoop and directly win the Ural campaign, and according to the intelligence of the Military Intelligence Agency, most of the five-nation coalition forces have now retreated to the west, but there are still millions of enemies opposite our Royal Army. ”

Lin Daxin suddenly stood up from the throne of the main hall, then waved his fist and shouted loudly: "Since we are ready, we don't need to be polite or scruples about the five countries of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey, and immediately order the troops on the front line of the Ural Mountains to immediately launch a poison gas attack on the five coalition forces of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey, to avenge the tens of thousands of soldiers who died under the poison gas of the coalition forces, and first to solve the millions of troops that the five coalition forces did not withdraw!" ”

At 1 o'clock in the afternoon of May 23, 1909, the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire on the front line of the Ural Mountains concentrated thousands of large-caliber howitzers and launched a surprise artillery bombardment of the forward positions of the coalition forces, but the sound produced by this shelling was not huge, because thousands of large-caliber howitzers fired not ordinary shells, all of them were gas shells filled with mustard gas.

This is not the end, the Royal Air Force of the Chinese Empire also dispatched hundreds of improved Blue Eagle bombers, escorted by hundreds of improved Yellow Bird fighters, flew over the city of Zwutoust, and launched a large-scale bombardment of the city of Zwutoust and the camp of the coalition forces around the city, and the aerial bombs bombed this time were also different, the same as the poison gas shells fired by artillery.

The inside of the aerial bomb was filled with mustard gas.

The five-nation alliance of Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey has made relatively sufficient preparations, but these preparations make little difference whether they are really prepared or not for the terrifying mustard gas.

"Ahh Help me! My eyes can't see! Who's going to help me! ”

"Medic! Medic! Who knows...... Who knows the paramedics...... Where are the paramedics? My gas mask doesn't work well, I feel like I'm ...... I'm going to die! ”

"This ...... What does it taste like? It seems like...... It seems to be ...... It tastes like wasabi, but I ...... Why am I so uncomfortable! ”

"Oh God! All the Chinese Empire uses is mustard gas, and we are dead this time! ”

Soon these scrambled sounds. Slowly disappeared a lot, leaving only some heart-rending screams. Officers and soldiers of the forward positions of the 5-nation coalition, as well as officers and soldiers of the 5-nation coalition in and around the city of Zwutoust. There were many officers and soldiers of the Five-Nation Alliance who did not die immediately from the mustard gas, and because their skin and eyes absorbed the mustard gas, they festered, and they kept screaming in unbearable pain.

The only thing that makes the German, Russian, Italian, Austrian, and Turkish coalition forces fortunate is that after the five-nation coalition launched a three-day poison gas war, the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Hindenburg, knew that the Chinese Empire would definitely launch a retaliatory action against the five-nation coalition forces, and the retaliation would be a poison gas counterattack. You must know that according to intelligence, the poison gas possessed by the Chinese Empire is very terrifying, and it is very likely to have a huge amount of mustard gas, which Germany only has a small amount of terrifying poison gas, and the five-nation coalition forces are deeply aware of it, and the German army artillery officers and soldiers who were killed and injured under Germany's own mustard gas shells have taught the officers and men of the five-nation coalition a good lesson.

So Hindenburg ordered a large number of 5-nation coalition troops in the forward positions and around the city of Zwutoust to retreat in the direction of Ufa City, so that many of the troops of the 5-nation coalition army would not taste the mustard gas.

However, the army of millions does not mean that it can be retreated. Moreover, the forward positions built by the city of Ziutoust and the 5-nation coalition army opposite the defense line of the Chinese Empire also needed to be guarded, so at least a million troops did not withdraw to the direction of Ufa City. Their millions of officers and soldiers of the 5-nation alliance enjoyed the baptism of mustard seeds in the Chinese Empire.

The artillery units of the Imperial Chinese Army and the bombers of the Royal Air Force of the Imperial Chinese Empire, after completing a round of poison gas attack. Thousands of officers and soldiers of the Imperial Chinese Army in white protective suits, armed with weapons. Quickly rushed to the forward positions of the 5-nation coalition forces.

Soon, the 5-nation coalition forces made great efforts to face the first line of defense of the Imperial Chinese Army in the Ural Mountains. The forward positions built were ceded to the attack forces of the Imperial Chinese Army.

Subsequently, the attack force of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire continued to attack and advance in the direction of the city of Zwutoust......

At about 8 o'clock in the evening of the 23rd, in the tunnel under the ruins in the city of Ufa, the temporary headquarters of the five-nation coalition army was transferred here, and at this time, the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Hindenburg, the commander of the Russian army, Sonokokoski, the commander of the Italian army, Hannaverde, the commander of the Austro-Hungarian army, and the commander of the Ottoman Turkish Imperial Army, Bajirya, all gathered in front of a wooden table with solemn faces, and several telegraphs were placed on the wooden table.

These telegrams and newspapers showed a general situation of the losses of the five-nation coalition forces after the poison gas attack carried out by the imperial Chinese army this afternoon.

Hannaverde, the commander of the Italian Army, said with a sad face: "It's so miserable! It's so miserable! The troops of our 5-nation coalition army that did not withdraw have suffered extremely heavy losses, and now the city of Zwutoust has also fallen into the hands of the Chinese Imperial Army, and we have completely lost this battle, and even this war. ”

According to a rough count, more than 600,000 officers and soldiers of the 5-nation coalition died directly in the poison gas attack on the afternoon of the 23rd, and hundreds of thousands of coalition officers and soldiers poisoned by mustard gas lost their combat effectiveness and became prisoners of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, and a large number of heavy equipment of the 5-nation army were lost near the city of Ziwutuoust, and also became the trophies of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire.

The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Hindenburg, said with a wry smile: "I knew that I would not agree to carry out a poison gas attack if I said anything, this is really lifting a stone to shoot myself in the foot, it seems that our war will not go on at all, but it is a pity that the request of several of our countries to end this war, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, Lin Daxin, did not agree immediately, he wants to avenge the officers and soldiers of the Chinese Imperial Army who died under our poison gas attack!" The city of Ufa is not safe here either, and I am prepared to lead the remaining forces of the German Army and continue to retreat to the west, preferably directly to German territory. ”

Gloria, the commander of the Austro-Hungarian Army, said sadly: "The Chinese Empire is too ruthless, our four countries have sent representatives to negotiate an armistice with the Chinese Empire, but as a result, what should the Chinese Empire do, or what should it continue to do, directly launched a terrifying poison gas attack on our five-nation coalition forces, and they all used terrifying mustard gas, which caused such a large number of casualties among our five-nation coalition forces, it is really a country without chivalry." ”

The commander of the Ottoman Turkish Imperial Army, Bajirya, went on to say: "Lin Daxin, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, is simply a person who will repay him, we don't have to expect that Lin Daxin to pay attention to demeanor and the like, I think we should not let the army continue to stay near the city of Ufa, we should continue to retreat to the west, so as not to suffer another attack by the poison gas of the Chinese Empire, and the troops of our Ottoman Turkish Empire, Germany, Italy and Austria-Hungary, it is better to withdraw directly from the territory of Russia and withdraw to the territory of our countries." ”

Russian Army Commander Sonokopsky snorted coldly: "Your German, Italian, Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Turkish armies can withdraw from Russia, so what should our Russian army units do?" After all, our five countries are still allies, and the land forces of your four countries have been withdrawn, who will resist the pace of the Chinese Imperial Army's continued westward advance, you must know that if our Russian Empire is captured by the Chinese Imperial Army, then your country will also face the iron heel of the Chinese Imperial Army. ”

The commander of the Italian army, Hannaverde, frowned and retorted: "If it weren't for the fact that you Russians would have suffered a life and didn't want to end this war this time, maybe the Chinese Empire would have agreed to negotiate an armistice with our five-nation coalition forces, and we would not have lost millions of troops under the attack of the Chinese Empire's poison gas." ”

Sonokokopski's voice couldn't help but raise a lot and shouted, "Hannawade, what do you mean?" Could it be that our five-nation coalition army was attacked by the poison gas of the Chinese imperial army, and we still have to blame our Russia? ”

Hannawade snorted coldly again and said: "I think it should be counted on the heads of you Russians, if it weren't for your Russia dragging its feet, maybe our war would have ended, and in the prisoner of war camp of the Chinese Imperial Army, tens of thousands of wounded allied troops could also get our own ambulance." ”

Then Hindenburg exclaimed: "When is it?" You're still talking about these useless issues, and now we have to work together to deal with the current difficulties. (To be continued.) )
