Chapter 990
No one expected that the war would end like this.
As he fell asleep last night, Napoleon was still worried about what would happen if the war dragged on until winter. The debt borrowed from Daming was enough to bankrupt the French government.
Napoleon did not even dare to imagine what would happen if the war dragged on until winter and was lost.
As seven years ago, Napoleon begged God every day to slow down the arrival of winter. Even if you play for a week, it's good!
Frederick was doing almost the same thing as Napoleon, and when Bismarck told him that the Russians had surrendered and that the war was over, Frederick, who was having breakfast, dropped the spoon of the soup to the ground.
I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Frederick felt his blood burning, and if there was heaven, Frederick felt like he was in heaven.
"But ......! They were going to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Bismarck's subsequent words sent Frederick from heaven to hell.
"Surrendered to the Ming people?" Frederick didn't understand what he meant.
"That's right! The surrender says that the Russian Empire surrendered to the Ming Empire. Willing to accept all the conditions of the Ming Empire, and willing to dedicate all the treasures of Moscow to the Ming Empire. β
"Bastard!" Frederick kicked the chair away.
I felt angry, and then I wanted to lift the table. Pity! The heavy oak dining table is too heavy. Frederick squeezed for a moment, but did not lift it up.
So much money was spent, so many people died. The Russians actually surrendered to the Ming ......! also dedicated Moscow to Daming, so what the hell did you get by paying so much?
"However, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty has sent a telegram from His Excellency the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty has sent a credential to Russia. They needed to surrender unconditionally to the coalition forces, not to the Ming Empire. β
Fortunately, Bismarck followed with another sentence.
"That's what it sounds like!" When Frederick heard Bismarck's words, he calmed down a little.
"However, His Excellency the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty ordered that all coalition forces stop on the current front. As long as the Russian army does not provoke, it is not allowed to fire at the Russian army. β
"This is also the proper meaning, since they have all surrendered, there is no need to attack again."
"KΓ€schlieffen and General Grouchy of France are fighting on the outskirts of Moscow with their troops. They will soon be able to break through the Russian positions and march to Moscow. β
"That's ......!"
Frederick knew what it meant to march on Moscow.
If nothing else, the treasures accumulated by the Tsarist royal family over hundreds of years alone are worth a fortune. Not to mention, Moscow has accumulated a huge amount of wealth over the years.
As long as you storm Moscow, you will be able to make a windfall.
"Schlieffen is stepping up his offensive and trying to get into Moscow as soon as possible. They want ......! Bismarck was about to continue, but was stopped by Frederick.
"If they force their way into Moscow, will they anger the Ming!" Frederick's face was a little bad.
"The news from St. Petersburg has not yet come back. We don't have a radio station like Daming, and the message transmission is very slow.
This kind of thing, and I don't dare to use flying pigeons to pass on the book. So......! β
"Then ......, let the messenger who issued the ceasefire order slow down. Also, you send someone to find out what the French are talking about. β
"Your Majesty, you mean, want to rob Moscow first?"
"No way, the cost of the war is too great."
"But this will offend Daming, after all, Russia has made it clear that it will dedicate Moscow to Daming." Bismarck was a little worried about Frederick's thoughts, he was a person who had been to the Ming Dynasty and knew how powerful the Ming Empire was.
For some money, it is not cost-effective to offend Daming.
"Our news is far less fast than the Ming army, and the time for the order to be delivered to the front line can't be compared with the Ming Dynasty."
"Okay!" Bismarck looked at the smiling Frederick, and could only reluctantly agree to retreat.
There's still a lot to do today, and we can't afford to waste time here.
Almost at the same time, Li Xiu also received a telegram from his eldest brother Li Xiao, which was only a short line of words.
Take Moscow first!
The short seven words made Li Xiu frown.
Nothing else, he had only two regiments of the Foreign Legion in his hands.
In terms of equipment and training, the Foreign Legion is completely incomparable with the Ming Marine Corps. They are completely brave and ruthless, and they absolutely dare to play with their lives.
Li Xiao's order was correct, but Moscow is a big city with a population of more than a million. In any case, two regiments are not enough.
What's more, the two brute bulls of Grouchy and Schlieffen. Single-mindedly rushing into Moscow and grabbing a wave fiercely. A big deal!
If you think about it with your ass, these two guys will definitely not choose to stop the footsteps of the forbidden army in front of Moscow at this time.
"Second master! What does the marshal mean is that you want us to occupy Moscow? Chen Laohu was on the side, saw Li Xiao's telegram, and asked cautiously.
"Yes! Big brother wants us to occupy Moscow, but ...... We have two regiments on hand. The French and Prussians, again frantically attacking.
It will not be easy either to capture Moscow, or to get Schlieffen and Grouch to stop the offensive. Li Xiu looked at this order again and was a little worried.
"Second master! Now the problem is that the capture of Moscow is actually not a difficult matter. The Russians have made it clear that they are going to give Moscow to us.
The big question now is ......, how to get Grouchy and Schlieffen to stop the attack.
If these two wild boars are allowed to rush into Moscow, then Moscow does not know what will become of their scourge. The marshal would never want a tattered Moscow! β
"Just two regiments, how can you stop them from attacking? You can't run and fight side by side with the Russians!
Even if you fight side by side with the Russians, there are only two regiments, what can you do! Just two days ago, 50,000 reinforcements were sent away, and these two bastards are afraid that there are no less than 250,000 horses.
With cargo airships, food and ammunition must also be secured. Damn it! I knew that I would have deducted some ammunition from them. β
Li Xiu regretted it a little, because Mao wanted to be so active in ensuring logistics for Grouchy and Schlieffen.
"Second master! Those cargo airships are ours, after this trip back. We can provide weapons and ammunition to the Russian army, as for the people, ......!
We only have two regiments, but there are enough Russians there, and there are more than a million people in total. If they had fought with the Prussians and the French with our weapons and ammunition, we would not have been to blame.
As long as you hold out for half a month, the order for an armistice will arrive. When the time comes, there will be no reason for them to continue fighting.
In those years, there were many casualties in the offensive.
Just let the French and Prussians fight, dare to rob Moscow with us, how can we do it without paying the price? β
Li Xiu looked at Chen Laohu in surprise, this bastard can grow up these years. It's really like this, I don't have enough manpower. But the Russian army in St. Petersburg has a lot of manpower.
A large cargo airship can carry 500 people at a time. Twenty airships can be concentrated to transport 10,000 troops to Moscow in one day and one night.
If you don't take a detour, you can even run twice a day.
"Let's not take a detour, just fucking fly over the heads of Grouchy and Schlieffen. They dare to shoot down Daming's airship, hehe! Li Xiu had a cruel smile on his face.
"The subordinate immediately went to the Brauchitsch, and we went with him to Moscow in an airship. All 30 of our cargo airships were assembled and transported from St. Petersburg to Moscow to participate in the defense. β
"Go for it! By the way, send someone to bring a message to Schlieffen and Grouchy. Tell them a ceasefire and set up a position on the existing front. β
"Will they listen?"
"Listen to them or not, say not to us."
"No!"
Chen Laohu immediately went to Brauchitsch, and when he heard that Daming had agreed to Russia's request, Brauchitsch almost didn't catch his breath.
Unexpectedly, there was a reply after only one day. Daming's efficiency is also a little too high.
"Now there is a trouble, the Prussians and the French, citing the fact that they did not receive an order, continue to attack Moscow.
You know, now we are coalition forces and are not suitable for direct conflict.
In order to defend your Moscow, we will gather all the airships to help you transport troops to Moscow and participate in the defense of Moscow.
In addition, Daming will also provide you with rifles, grenades, light and heavy machine guns and other weapons. "Time is urgent, Chen Laohu has to make a long story short.
"Good! Good! Brauchitsch's head was like a chicken pecking rice.
Brauchitsch was also the first time to take the Ming airship, which was a luxury passenger airship that only high-ranking officers of the Ming Dynasty were qualified to use.
There are leather sofas on the airship, and there is a small bar. There is everything from brandy to big wine. Even, authentic Russian vodka can be found.
"Have a drink?" Chen Laohu saw Brauchitsch's eyes fall on Wuliangye, and immediately invited the old guy to have a drink.
The Russians are good at drinking, and when they heard Chen Laohu's invitation, Brauchitsch immediately came over.
"Your Da Ming official speaks well, where did you learn it?" He picked up a bottle of Wuliangye and poured Brauchitsch a glass.
"I've been in Daming for almost ten years."
"Oh! There are not many foreigners in the Ming Dynasty. Chen Laohu and Brauchitsch had a drink.
"You may not believe it, I am a prisoner of war!" Brauchitsch pointed to his nose.
"Prisoners of war? Oh, I remembered. You were captured in Heilongjiang back then! Chen Laohu remembered that Li Xiao fought with the Russians in Heilongjiang back then.
In that battle, Li Xiao captured a colonel of the Russians and made him a wax man alive. Now it is still placed in the pavilion outside the Great Ming Wuying Palace!
"Yes! After being captured, we were sent to work as coolies in the capital. That's when I learned Mandarin! We did this for ten years, until a Russian missionary found us.
I spent money to ransom them, and I returned to Russia. β
"You can do it, old fellow! Became Prime Minister as soon as he returned to Russia? The prime minister is a great official! β
"Huh! I also have an identity as ......, I am the uncle of Empress Catherine.
Uncle and uncle!
As a child, I was very nice to Catherine. I learned a lot of techniques from Daming, and the kid reused me. Ever since Dorgon fled, I have become Prime Minister. β
After two sips of wine, Brauchitsch's nose began to redden.
"Did Dorgon really escape?" Hearing Dolgon's name, Chen Laohu was visibly refreshed.
"Escaped! And kidnapped Kutuzov's daughter!
Although we know that it was Kutuzov who let it go. But there is no way, after all, the army is overwhelming, and we still have to rely on Kutuzov to fight.
But this battle is over, and Kutuzov should also be unlucky.
Russia, this time, really wants to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Her Majesty has collected all the royal jewels into the treasury, and is waiting for Daming to take over.
As long as you can keep Moscow from being studied, Her Majesty the Empress will accept any price. β
"Aren't we helping you defend Moscow?" Chen Laohu smiled.
At this time, the airship was already falling, because the airship had a Da Ming mark. Duke Peter ordered not to attack!
When he saw a Ming officer walking down the gangway with Brauchitsch, Duke Peter did not know whether to be sad or happy.
"Duke Peter, the Prussians and the French, are still attacking Moscow. Moscow needs reinforcements! When Brauchitsch saw Duke Peter, he immediately seized Duke Peter's hand.
"Damn, didn't we surrender?" Duke Peter looked at Chen Laohu with an atmosphere, and in his eyes, the Ming people were not credible.
"They refused to cease fire on the grounds that they had not received an order from the monarch. Now, you immediately organize an army. The Ming will provide airships to transport your men to Moscow and participate in the defense of Moscow.
In addition, Daming will also provide some arms. β
"Really!" Duke Peter couldn't believe his ears.
"Really, this is Vice Admiral Chen Laohu of the Ming Dynasty."
Duke Peter shook hands with Chen Laohu, nodded to each other and did not speak.
I can't understand what I say!
Things have changed relatively quickly, and yesterday we were still enemies fighting for life and death. Now they have become allies!
The five airships that had been transferred in advance quickly landed on the palace square. In the center of the square stands the world's tallest memorial column, the Alexander Column, which has become the best landmark.
Chen Laohu looked at the tall Alexander Column, and it was strange that Mao didn't blow it up when he shelled St. Petersburg.
Fortunately, there was no shelling of the square, otherwise there would not have been a place for the airship to land.
Groups of heavily armed Russian soldiers boarded the airship.
Most of them were flying airships for the first time. Seeing the huge Ming Army red five-star logo on the airship airbag, most people were a little confused.
Seeing a group of soldiers sit up, a full 500 people boarded, before the pod was filled. Duke Peter was a little surprised!
Russia also has airships, but Russian airships are far from being able to hold so many people. The largest cargo airship can only carry 100 people at a time.
