2060 British and German reinforcements
Nikolayevich pondered for a moment and said, "Let's not care about it for now, let's invite Ambassador Powell and Ambassador Schwart in."
The attendant turned around and went out, and in a short time invited Ambassador Powell and Ambassador Schwart in, Nikolaevich laughed loudly and said: "Two ambassadors, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”
Powell said with a smile: "We returned to China for a while because of temporary matters, and we left in a hurry without notice, and I hope the speaker will not mind." ”
Nikolayevich smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, are you two here today for something?" ”
"The Chinese army has captured Tsaritsyn, and we have come to you to discuss countermeasures. ”
Nikolayevich did not say anything about his peace with Lin Yuan, he also pretended that he was distressed by the capture of Tsaritsyn by the Chinese army, so Nikolayevich sighed and said: "I am also worried about this matter, after the Chinese army captures Tsaritsyn, it will be able to go all the way north from the Oka River-Don Plain and directly capture Moscow and St. Petersburg." ”
Powell asked, "How does the speaker plan to respond to the attack of the Chinese army?" ”
Nikolayevich said: "I have already ordered conscription in various places, and the arsenal is building weapons with all its might, distributing them to these conscripted soldiers. ”
"We in Germany are willing to provide you with a large number of weapons and we hope to be able to help you," Schwarter said. ”
Powell also said: "We in Britain are willing to provide 50 Charizard fighters to provide air protection for your army." ”
Nikolayevich was a little embarrassed when he heard the words of the two people, because he had already discussed with Lin Yuan, begged for peace and surrender, and now he could no longer accept British and German weapons, if he accepted British and German weapons, wouldn't it anger Lin Yuan?
However, Nikolayevich could not refuse directly, so he said euphemistically: "Two ambassadors, your weapons are indeed very good, but our Russian economy is in a very poor situation, and I am afraid that we will not be able to pay for the purchase of these weapons." ”
Powell laughed and said, "Honorable Speaker, didn't you understand me?" I'm talking about 'offering', not 'selling', not 'renting', these equipment are all given to you by us, I hope you don't refuse. ”
Nikolayevich was in a dilemma for a while, but after thinking about it, wouldn't it be a great achievement if I transferred these equipment to Lin Yuan? So Nikolayevich laughed and said: "Well, I agreed, accept the weapons of your country." ”
Schwarter smiled: "We can produce not only weapons, but also troops, our German Emperor Wilhelm II has agreed to send five heavy divisions into Russia to help your army fight!" ”
Nikolayevich was surprised when he heard this, at this time, Germany, under the impetus of high technology, has extremely strong combat strength, especially the heavy divisions, each division has more than 300 tanks, and more auxiliary vehicles of all kinds, judging from the number of tanks alone, it has been on a par with the mechanized infantry division of the main army of the Chinese army.
At this time, Schwarter continued: "Our ten heavy divisions will enter Russia in the name of volunteers to help Russia fight, and the commander of the army is General Moltke Jr." ”
Nikolayevich heard that the commander of the army was Moltke Jr., and couldn't help asking: "Is Moltke Jr. the nephew of General ** Qi, the one who once served as the guard of the German emperor?" ”
Schwarter smiled and nodded, and said: "General Moltke Jr. is the most promising general in our German Empire, with excellent command ability, this aid army is personally commanded by him, are you still worried that you can't defeat the Chinese army?" According to our intelligence, the Chinese army, which is closest to Moscow, has only two divisions. ”
Without waiting for Nikolayevich to speak, Powell said on the side: "Our Royal Navy fleet of the British Empire will also be dispatched to help Russia, and we will divide our troops into two routes, one to the north and the other to the south." ”
"The fleet going north will enter the Baltic Sea, and the fleet going south will enter the Black Sea, and although the Chinese fleet is powerful, it is thousands of miles away and cannot get through."
When Nikolayevich heard the two ambassadors say this, he thought to himself: "Britain and Germany have come out so strongly to support me, maybe I can really defeat China, at least Moscow and St. Petersburg, and if that happens, I will not only keep all my possessions, but also my power!" ”
Nikolayevich thought of power, and the idea of surrendering Lin Yuan was even more shaken, after surrendering Lin Yuan, although he would be amnesty and would not become a prisoner, but the power was gone, how good it felt to hold power, everyone was around him, and he could kill whoever he wanted!
Nikolayevich pondered and did not speak for a long time, when Schwarter reminded softly: "Speaker? ”
Nikolayevich woke up like from a dream, said "oh", and then said: "Okay, I promise to accept your country's aid, but I don't know when the aid from your two countries will arrive?" ”
Schwarter smiled: "Our troops are ready, and if we go smoothly, we will be able to reach Moscow in five days." ”
Powell also said: "Our fleet has also set off, but the speed of ships at sea is relatively slow, and it takes about 15 days for the fleet to enter the Baltic and Black Seas." ”
Nikolayevich smiled: "Well, I have agreed to accept your assistance, please discuss the specific strategy and tactics with my chief of staff." ”
Ambassador Powell and Ambassador Schwart walked out with a smile, but Nikolayevich put away his smile, his face was full of sadness, he was silent for a few minutes, and said to the attendant: "Take me to see Professor Badaev." ”
The attendant then took Nikolayevich to the palace where Badaev was being held, and on the way the attendant asked softly: "My lord, now that this has become like this, what should we do?" ”
Nikolayevich sighed lightly and asked: "Do you say that the Germans can beat the Chinese?" ”
The attendant hesitated and said, "It's hard to say. ”
Nikolayevich said: "Speak your judgment. ”
The attendant said in a low voice: "When Lin Yuan's troops captured Vladivostok, I saw them, the military appearance is strict, the discipline is strict, this alone is already a strong army, the German army is meticulous, rigorous, and it is also a strong army, but the Chinese army has the most advanced weapons and equipment in the world, which is indisputable, if I judge, the Chinese army has the advantage." But ......"
Nikolayevich hurriedly asked: "But what?" ”
The attendant continued: "But the British and the Germans are very strange, if they really want to help you, why didn't they show up when the Chinese army captured Tsaritsyn, and disappeared for so many days, and now they suddenly appeared, what is the matter?" ”
