279 km west of Baku, Ujare.
Dressed in gray overalls, Zov pushed the coal cart to the train, where he handed it over to the Tatar soldiers, whom he had never seen before, to carry them onto the train.
What made Zov a little strange was that in addition to the Tatar soldiers, the train also had two locomotives, and the curtains on the windows of the middle three carriages were never opened, and every time someone in the station tried to get closer, they would be driven away by those Tatar soldiers, and the machine guns mounted on the roof of the train were cold.
Whose train is this? How mysterious it is?
He wanted to get closer to see if this was the train that everyone in the party had been looking for for a few days, but the other party seemed to be extremely arrogant and unreasonable, and did not let them approach at all.
What to do?
Zov had thought about it, because it said that the train might go to Kiev and BΕran, or Ufa, instead of coming to the Caucasus, but in the afterglow, a thin curtain was lifted, and his steps paused slightly.
I saw that in the crack of the curtain, a woman's hand appeared, and then a somewhat pale girl's face, although she could not see the whole picture, but the clothes on her body appeared bright and bright.
Aristocrat! Definitely aristocratic!
Zov's heart began to beat faster, he didn't expect that there was a noble girl in the car, and when he thought of the party news he received before, he suddenly had seven or eight points of confidence in his heart, but the soldiers with loaded guns around him made him worried, this is a temporary small station, usually only refueling trains to and from Baku, lacking the help of the army, and even if the army can be found, it is not the armed forces of his own party.
The curtain that was lifted was instantly covered by the other hand, and after thinking about it, Zoff handed the trolley to his partner in the name of going to the toilet, and ran out of the station by himself.
In the carriage, a nighthawk immediately closed the curtains, and the caliber of the gun in the black hole was directly pressed against the center of Princess Olga's eyebrows, Wenxiu immediately got up and walked to the side after seeing this, looked at the eldest daughter of Nicholas II, and sneered: "Princess Olga, if you don't want your family to have trouble, don't make a move that provokes us!" β
The 22-year-old Olga's face turned pale, and Queen Alexandra beside her hurriedly waved her hand and exclaimed: "Stop, don't kill my daughter, we Germany and you are allies!" β
Wen Xiu snorted coldly, ordered Nighthawk to put away his gun, and was just about to turn his head back to his seat, when Nicholas II, who had been calm for the past few days, suddenly sneered: "You will not succeed, there is Baku in front, where are hundreds of thousands of my troops, if you let me go now, I can not pursue it!" β
"Really?" Wen Xiu squinted his eyes, glanced at the emperor who had ruled Russia, and ignored him, sat in his seat and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Although he ignored Nicholas II, the other party's words still made him quite worried, Russia is not China, he is already very aware of the inefficiency of the telegraph and the railway line, and what happened in St. Petersburg may not have been transmitted here, so what the other party said makes sense, the Caucasus is the place where Russia's heavy troops are gathered, and the railway line will be interrupted after it arrives in Baku, that is to say, if their side cannot control Baku in time, then they may face the siege of tens of thousands of Russian troops.
But he didn't have time to think about it, taking Baku or Ufa is the only two ways to leave Russia, and it is also difficult to cross the Ural Mountains from Ufa, and the important thing is that with Sun Jiugong's offensive, the Russian army will definitely cut off the railway line from Ufa to Omsk to prevent it from being used to transport troops, and if you go anywhere, you need to face the danger of breaking the railway line. γ I want: super fast update γ
Baku is different, all of Russia's oil has to go here, the railway line is smoother than other places, and the Russian army will not cut off the oil lifeline, so this is why he chose to go here.
Now it is up to the Greater Kuwait forces to take Baku in time to take control of this strategic town.
Just when Wenxiu closed his eyes and recuperated, a burst of gunfire suddenly came from outside, and Nicholas II almost jumped up with excitement when he heard the gunshot, but he was pressed to his seat by the soldiers guarding him and couldn't move.
"Report, there's a squad of cavalry."
As soon as Wen Xiu rushed out of the carriage, he saw a large group of cavalry suddenly used behind the small station, and seeing that there were about a thousand people, he hurriedly shouted: "Drive." β
The train, which had been stopped for several hours, began to move slowly again, and Zov, who was leading the team in the distance, saw the train going, and was so anxious that his mouth was foaming, and he finally found a cavalry led by the Bolsheviks, so he hurriedly asked them to come here in the hope of stopping each other.
"Rush up, catch them, the evil tsar is inside!"
The second lieutenant of the cavalry shouted, and galloped to try to stop the train, only to see two shooting holes suddenly crack at the rear of the train, and long tongues of fire erupted from the holes.
The clatter of machine guns shattered the calm of Ujary, and the small town in the Caucasus was in chaos.
The cavalry flew at a fast speed, and the horses were getting closer and closer, and when they could see that they could get closer, the train suddenly erupted with tongues of fire, and Zov, who was running in front, was hit and fell to the ground without even shouting.
"Rush to the front and blow the rails off!"
The second lieutenant shouted, and the cavalry who commanded the speed rushed forward, seeing that they were about to cross the train, the cavalry team led by Eugene finally arrived, and the cavalry team that had already taken refuge in China was strangled into the Russian cavalry like a blade.
The sudden interception made Wenxiu anxious, but Nicholas II in the carriage was proud, but as a voice sounded, his and Empress Alexandra's faces suddenly turned pale.
"Wildcat, it's our wildcat!"
"From Baku, Baku was taken down by us!"
Dozens of Wildcat armored vehicles appeared on the horizon in the distance like ghosts, and a moment later they rushed into the strangled cavalry in the rear with the train, and it only took half an hour to drive the Russian cavalry away.
The curtains were finally opened after a few days, and in the bright sunshine, Wildcat armored cars painted with the logo of the double-headed eagle were protected on the left flank of the train and marched together.
"Your Majesty, Nicholas, I think I can talk to you about it now." Wenxiu slowly walked up to Nikolai and said clearly in English: "Yesterday, we have taken Baku. β
Inside the St. Petersburg Winter Palace, teams of Bolshevik soldiers are cleaning up the remnants of the battle, and although a few days have passed, the beautiful and luxurious Winter Palace still leaves them with an eye-opener to linger on.
In the cramped kitchen, the maids were huddled together in rags, and the beautiful silver cutlery in the cupboards had been snatched up by the rebels who had poured in a few days earlier.
Several soldiers came in and saw the maids they had taken turns "judging" and pushed them out of the kitchen with a smile on their lips, and a series of gunshots were heard in the direction of the stables a moment later.
Lenin sat in a daze in the spacious study used by the former tsar, even the sound of gunfire in the direction of the stable did not wake him, he looked coldly at the black holes in the walls around him and gritted his teeth, which should have been covered with frescoes and exquisite and expensive decorations, but now the entire Winter Palace has been emptied, and it is estimated that if it is not for the inadequacy, these furniture will also be removed.
What he didn't expect was that he finally broke into the Winter Palace, and after opening the underground palace, he found that the centuries-old wealth of the Romanov Dynasty, which should have been piled up in warehouses, had all disappeared, more than a thousand tons of gold, priceless diamonds and jewelry, which were originally the hope of Russia's revival, but now they all mysteriously disappeared with Nicholas II!
"Comrade Lenin, the Chinese ambassador is here, and he wants to see you." Tivinov interrupted Lenin's thoughts by pushing the door open, and the latter, who immediately frowned and walked out of the room.
The lavish Peacock Hall, where Nicholas II was once honored, is also the relatively well-preserved Hermitage room, and the map of Russia inlaid with 45,000 colored stones is still blooming, but the throne studded with diamonds and gold that should have been placed in front of the map is gone.
Lu Zhengxiang stood in the hall, looking at the colored stone map and secretly said that it was a pity, he didn't want these colored stones, but felt that this map was too big and eye-catching, and those guys should also directly use the fried yΓ to kill this, lest the Russians use this as an excuse to overturn the case in the future.
A moment later, Lu Zhengxiang met Lenin, this was not the first time he had dealt with the other party, since he began to support Lenin at home, he has been a transit point between the two sides.
"It was a pleasure to meet you, dear Mr. Lenin."
"I'm happy too." Lenin took Lu Zhengxiang's hand, smiled and beckoned him to sit down, and asked, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to do with me?" β
"Yes, I brought a letter." Lu Zhengxiang got straight to the point.
"Oh? Whose letter is it? β
"A joint handwritten letter from His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany." As soon as Lu Zhengxiang finished speaking, Lenin's face changed suddenly, he didn't expect these two to be ready for a showdown at such a speed.
Lu Zhengxiang was not surprised by Lenin's surprise, he slowly took out the letter from his pocket and handed it to Lenin, and deliberately said: "Mr. Lenin, please forgive me for being blunt, from my personal standpoint, I don't think I should hand it over to you, but this is what the emperor and His Majesty Wilhelm II meant, so I still came." β
These words made Lenin's hand freeze suddenly, looking at Lu Zhengxiang, he understood what the other party meant, the Mensheviks left aside the Bolsheviks, and began to hook up with the Duma to prepare for the formation of the Russian Provisional Government, and Prince Surov and Denikin and others began to gather troops in Kiev in an attempt to restore the Romanov dynasty, and the fruits of the victory of the revolution launched by the Bolsheviks fell into the hands of others in a blink of an eye overnight, which is unimaginable to ordinary people.
"But after careful decision, we still feel that fulfilling the previous treaty will help you gain power in Russia, of course." Lu Zhengxiang got up and slowly walked to the colored stone map, and said coldly: "There are some places in this map that need to be modified. β
Lenin took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and after slowly opening the letter and looking at it a few times, the anger that had just been barely suppressed finally erupted uncontrollably, shouting: "No, this is impossible! β
Lu Zhengxiang didn't seem to see Lenin's gloomy face, turned his head and said slowly: "Mr. Lenin, we might as well calm down and think about the current situation outside.
Our ** team has already contributed to Omsk, and in a month you can reach Yekaterinburg, and after arriving in Yekaterinburg, there is the Urals, where all the troops stationed are loyal to the tsar, if they cooperate with us, do you think there will be a problem in capturing Ufa in three months?
The Entente's garrison at BΕs is already on its own, our army in Mesopotamia has probably captured Baku, and if the Ottomans are willing to cooperate with us, I believe we can take the whole of the Caucasus!
Prince Surov and Denikin are pulling troops from the front, and if Germany doesn't stop them, then they can organize an army of more than a million, do you think there is a problem with that?
The British ** team has taken control of the Kronstadt fortress, and even all the warships, and now they are only more than 20 kilometers from St. Petersburg, and it only takes a day to reach it quickly, if they cooperate with the restoration army, can you stop those veterans who have experienced the test of war?
If I go and contact the Provisional Government now and tell them that as long as they withdraw from the war, they can get our full support, do you think you can save this country?
Mr. Lenin, perhaps you feel that the number of workers and peasants you are arming is growing, but I would like to remind you that we have more than 1.9 million Western Siberian prisoners in our hands, and those are veterans of life and death, and if we hand it over to the Provisional Government or the Restoration Army, how much sacrifice do you think you can pay? β
One reality after another, Lenin felt as if he had been thrown into the Arctic Ocean, and his whole body was bitterly cold, compared with himself, the cards in the opponent's hand were really good, the invincible army, a large number of prisoners that could be used, and the direct support of geographical factors, so he believed that this ambassador Hua was not joking.
Now that Russia's domestic forces are divided into three parts, it has its own arms, the Mensheviks have taken power, the restoration army is eyeing it, and all the Entente countries such as Britain and the United States are supporting it.
But!
China is to demarcate the border in Western Siberia in Tyumen, and it is also necessary to hand over Baku and half of Azerbaijan itself, and henceforth not to deploy any troops in the territory of the country east of the Ural Mountains as a buffer zone between the two countries, while Germany wants BΕland, Lithuania, part of Estonia and all of Latvia and Belarus, and also demands an indemnity of 3 billion rubles!
This is no longer a question of reparations, but of the release of Russian blood!
Lenin was well aware of these imperialist greedy features, but he did not expect that it had reached such a shameful point!
"By the way, Mr. Lenin." Looking at Lenin, who gritted his teeth and looked at him with his eyes on fire, Lu Zhengxiang suddenly crooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "It costs money to fight a war, I don't know if you have enough funds and weapons?" β
Lenin was already trembling with rage, and just then Tivinov walked in again with a piece of news that would change everything.
"Comrade Lenin." Tivinov glanced at Lu Zhengxiang and said hurriedly: "We just got the news that the train is heading to Baku!" β
"What!"
