Chapter 555 The curtain call of the European war

Nicholas II used alcohol to relieve his sorrows, and at a young age he seemed increasingly decadent.

The Duma Parliament was still quarreling. Every time a minute wasted, several Tsarist Russian soldiers fighting on the front line would be killed.

But this doesn't matter. For the Tsarist nobles, it doesn't matter how many soldiers died. What they care about the most is their own interests.

Whether surrendering to the Chinese Empire can reduce the loss of interests, or surrendering to the German Empire can obtain higher benefits, no one dares to guarantee, and can only gamble like a gambler.

However, they still have time, because a legendary figure appeared on the battlefield of Western Siberia. Under the leadership of this man, a very combative Tsarist Russian army blocked the powerful offensive of the Chinese Empire's Shence Army at Yekalin Arbor on the Eurasian dividing line.

This man was named Lienning. During the World War in 1894, he was forced to join the army and participated in the Sino-Russian Battle of Siberia. After Tsarist Russia was defeated, he realized the backwardness of the Tsarist Empire under the rule of the Tsarist Empire. He yearned for the prosperity of the Chinese Empire. Unfortunately, he tried to go to the Chinese Empire and was rejected. The Tsarist Russian government declared him a traitor on this ground.

So Lienning had no choice but to escape from Tsarist Russia if he could not go to the Chinese Empire. He eventually went to Western Europe to contact some exiled Marxists, especially the most respected thinker Plekhanov. In the same year, he secretly returned to China and became the leader of the Petersburg Marxist group. He also founded the "Working Class Liberation Struggle Association" to spread Marxist theory to workers. In December of the same year, he was arrested and imprisoned, and then exiled to the Yekalin Arbor area of ​​Western Siberia.

During the exile of Yekarin Arbor, Liennen married Puskaya and continued to engage in revolutionary activities and writing. Soon he established a revolutionary group in the Yekarin Arbor area and obtained support from the local working class.

Yekaterinburg is located on the Eurasian dividing line. In 17 years, Peter the Great built the first Russian smelting plant there, and on this basis built the industrial fortress named after Yekaterinburg, which was named after Yekaterinburg.

In the first half of the 19th century, the industrial process of the Tsarist Russian Empire accelerated, and the metallurgical industry drove the rapid development of Yekaterinburg. In the last 25 years of the 19th century, Yekaterinburg became the Ural economic, financial center, cultural center, and an important hub to the Siberian railway.

At the same time, due to the hostility of the Tsarist Russian Empire and the Chinese Empire, in order to expedition to the Far East, the Tsar expanded the size of the Yekalin Arbor Fortress by five times. Not only did he build heavy fortifications, but he also served as the logistics base for the Tsarist Russian Empire to conquer the Chinese Empire. All the ammunition and logistics supplies of the Tsarist Russian army on the Asian battlefield were stored in the Yekalin Arbor Fortress.

Due to the failure of the Tsarist Russian Empire in the Asian battlefield, Nicholas II transferred his army from the Asian battlefield to the European battlefield, which greatly facilitated the rapid development and growth of Lienning and his revolutionary team. The poverty and backwardness of Tsarist Russia, coupled with the negative impact of repeated failures in combat, led to the dissatisfaction of many Tsarist Russian officers and soldiers.

Liening took advantage of these negative effects and soon developed a large number of Tsarist Russian soldiers to join, making his revolutionary team grow bigger and bigger like a snowball.

With the defeat of the most powerful American in the Allies, the Chinese Empire had already scared the Slavs. Liening took the opportunity to incite lobbying, and more and more Slavs began to oppose the war, hoping that the Tsarist Russian Empire would withdraw from the world war.

When the news of Britain's fall was heard back to the Tsarist Russian Empire, more Slavs knew very well that the only Allied country that could compete with the Chinese Empire, Britain and the United States were defeated and surrendered, France was unable to protect itself and would soon be destroyed by the German Empire. Then the Tsarist Russian Empire had very little hope of winning the world war and was almost impossible.

At the same time, what made the Slavs most desperate was that after three years of world war, even a rich country like the British Empire could not hold on, let alone the poor and backward Tsarist Russian Empire.

The entire Tsarist Russia has reached the point where people are living in poverty. The people are recruited to fight wars. No one is farmed, factories are shut down, and daily necessities are either not available or they can’t afford them. The depreciation of the ruble has reached the point where a box of matches needs to be bought with a sack of ruble notes.

Under this situation, when the sky in Siberia was burned red by artillery fire, hundreds of thousands of Tsarist Russian troops on the current line were beaten to the point of defeat by the Shence Army of the Chinese Empire in one day, the entire Tsarist Russian people were panicked.

Yekalin Arbor was the core of the Tsarist Russian Empire's war against China. The Chinese Empire's army must attack here, so the Slavs here were even more afraid.

Lienning knew that his era had arrived, so he wanted to take the opportunity to control Yekalin Arbor, use the large amount of materials hoarded here to intercept the hundreds of thousands of Tsarist Russian troops that had been defeated from the front line, making them become revolutionary soldiers, and thus fulfilling their revolutionary dreams.

Lienning did it. When the defeated Tsarist Russian soldiers heard the sound of gunfire chasing after the Chinese Empire army, they were frightened and their calves cramped.

At first, Lie Ning was also very scared, and he also knew the power of the Shen Ce Army of the Chinese Empire.

But soon he discovered that the so-called Chinese Empire Shen Ce Army, which was pursuing tens of thousands of Tsarist Russian troops, had only one regiment of troops.

According to the organization of the Standing Army of the Shence Army of the Chinese Empire, a regiment has only about 2,000 people. Even if the scale of the combat organization has expanded, it will not exceed 5,000 people. They are chasing more than 100,000 Tsarist Russian troops and crying all over the world.

This is so legendary!

That moment surprised Lienning!

Lienning realized this god-given opportunity. He quickly organized the revolutionary party armed forces and was ready to fight with this Chinese imperial army.

After a fierce battle for one day and two nights, Liening led his revolutionary armed forces to successfully repel the fierce attack of the Chinese Empire army.

After the battle, Liening was scared all over the ground. He finally realized why the Shence Army of the Chinese Empire made the Tsarist Russian army frightened.

The combat effectiveness of the Chinese Empire's Shen Ce Army is indeed not a pity. A mechanized infantry regiment has less than 5,000 people, and its firepower is far greater than that of an army of the Tsarist Russian army.

After dozens of arduous defensive operations, although Liening's revolutionary armed forces repelled the attack of the Chinese Shence Army, they paid a heavy price. As the defensive side, more than 20,000 were injured or killed, of which more than 8,000 were killed.

Lie Ning wanted to use the corpses or captives of some Chinese Imperial Army soldiers to establish his authority. However, what made him depressed was that he clearly saw hundreds of Chinese Imperial Army soldiers being shot and fell to the ground, but he did not find a single body. It turned out that whenever a Shence Army soldier was injured, an ambulance would immediately rushed up and quickly take it away, and would take away the corpses of his companions when he withdrew.

This actually shows a problem, that is, the Chinese Empire army retreated on its own initiative, so they have time to take away their companions' bodies. If they were defeated by the Liening army, they would have no time to take away their companions' bodies.

But this is no longer important. As long as the Chinese Empire troops retreat, the Russian troops in Yekarin Arbor will believe that Liening is their savior.

In any case, Lie Ning became a hero. He successfully recruited more than 100,000 Tsarist Russian defeated troops with the excuses of Yekalin Arbor's powerful fortifications and sufficient materials, as well as the excuses of repelling the Chinese Empire's army.

At this moment, Lie Ning was confident. Including the more than 40,000 defenders of the Yekalin Arbor Fortress controlled by the Revolutionary Party, as well as the more than 60,000 workers in Yekalin Arbor, the total total was as high as 250,000 troops.

This force instantly expanded Lie Ning's ambition, but his first priority was to control this huge army as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Liening already had an armed team of workers loyal to him, with many core members of the revolutionary party. They quickly replenished other Russian troops, became backbones, and spread Marxist ideas, uniting all the troops around Liening.

The Tsarist Russian nobles in St. Petersburg did not know how dangerous Lienin was. At this moment, they only saw Lienin helping them block the powerful offensive of the Chinese Empire army.

Of course, they didn't know that Lie Ning's this time had just repelled a mechanized infantry regiment of the Chinese Empire's army. If it weren't for the long front line of the main force of the Chinese Empire's army, if it were a military or a group of troops, Lie Ning would probably not be able to defend it at all.

Lienning's subordinate, Major General Mendorev, commander of the Fortress of Yekalin Arbor, lied about military information. He was instructed by Lienning to temporarily confuse the Duma Parliament in order to obtain greater benefits.

The nobles of the Duma Parliament did not realize that they had been deceived. Just like the Eight-Nation Alliance in history captured Tianjin, Cixi received the news that the Qing army won the victory, and as soon as she was excited, she declared war directly on the Eight-Nation countries. If Cixi knew the truth at that time, she would never have the courage.

Similarly, the Duma Parliament only saw Lie Ning commanding the Russian army to defend the Fortress of Yekalin Arbor, and thought that his ability was enough to block more than one million Chinese Empire's Divine Army.

As a result, the Duma Parliament appointed Lienning as the commander of the Yekalin Arbor Fortress for the first time and was responsible for gathering hundreds of thousands of Russian troops who retreated from Siberia's defeat.

In this way, Lienning transformed himself into a major general of the Russian army and restrained the defeated Siberian army, which was equivalent to becoming the governor of Siberia, which was a step to reach the sky.

In fact, the nobles of the Duma Parliament were not unclear about Liening's background, but their idea was to use Liening to block the Chinese Empire's military attack first, and wait until the Asian battlefield stabilized before replacing Liening.

This is a standard politician behavior. The Duma Parliament is just using unspoken rules, but they ignore the most important issue, that is, Liening is the revolutionary party, and is the revolutionary party ruled by the Tsarist rule.

When Lienin expanded its army on a large scale and expanded the strength of the revolutionary party, the nobles of the Duma Parliament also made the final decision. They felt that Lienin could stop the Chinese Empire's army by leading a group of workers, proving that the Tsarist Russian Empire was still very powerful. As long as more workers were placed on the battlefield, they could defeat the Chinese Empire, so they temporarily gave up the option of surrender.

Unfortunately, not long after, a bad news came from the Western Front battlefield of Europe.

The British and French coalition forces were defeated in a decisive battle with the German Empire on August 13. French Emperor Napoleon IV was captured by the German army and the French Empire was destroyed.

The Battle of Bordeaux was a victory that General Schliffen won by temporarily changing his plan, because he found that on the Western French Front, facing more than four million British and French coalition forces, the German army with less than two million was too hard to fight.

In the past, the British and French Allied Forces laid a front line of 800 kilometers in Verdun and the Marne River. Millions of British and French Allied Forces seemed to be large, but in fact there were only a few thousand troops on each kilometer of front. This gave Shi Lifen a blitzkrieg, concentrated troops to advance, and opened the way with planes and tanks, creating local troop and firepower advantages, thus winning the previous victory.

However, more than one million British troops later urgently reinforced France, and the main force of the French army also retreated to southwestern France, resulting in the sharp reduction of the front line that the British and French coalition forces needed to defend. Now the four million British and French coalition forces only defended less than 100 kilometers of fronts, with the forces reaching 40,000 people per kilometer. The troops became concentrated and the weapons and equipment were also concentrated. The British and French coalition forces also had more than 2,000 aircraft and more than 1,000 tanks, which could easily block the German blitzkrieg.

As a result, two million German troops fought against four million British and French coalitions every day, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. On the most tragic day, the German troops were killed and injured by 140,000 people, and more than 200,000 British and French coalitions were killed and injured by more than 200,000 people.

Both sides were red in their eyes and entered the main decisive battle on the front battlefield. The British and French allied forces fought against the enemy, so they were particularly fierce, causing huge casualties to the German army.

Shilifen was so distressed that he thought that Emperor Napoleon IV was in Bordeaux, so he played a sneak attack and blitzkrieg again, concentrating two elite German armies to attack Bordeaux suddenly.

The French Emperor Napoleon IV was instantly scared and hurriedly ordered the main force of the French army to reinforce. As a result, he was hit by Shi Lifen's plan to attack and aid. The main force of the French army was surrounded by the main force of the 600,000 German army.

After ten days and ten nights of bloody battle, the main force of the French army was wiped out. At the same time, the German army captured Bordeaux and captured the French Emperor Napoleon IV.

The French Emperor was captured, which was a fatal blow to the whole of France, especially the French army was divided. Even if there were British troops there, it was a pity that the British army was rootless duckweed, and the supply was entirely supplied by the French army. When the French army was in chaos, no one cared about the two million British troops.

Shi Lifen seized the fighter plane and divided the British and French troops in the next half month of battle, concentrated his superior forces to defeat them one by one. In the end, four million British and French coalition forces were defeated, and then the French Empire announced its surrender.

At the Berlin Palace, William II was extremely happy after receiving the news of the surrender of the French Empire.

However, when he saw the German casualties reported by Schliffen, his face turned green in anger.

In order to defeat the four million British and French coalition forces, the German Army lost a total of 700,000 elite German soldiers.

"Damn the Chinese Empire, if it weren't for their intentional leaving two million British troops in France, our German soldiers would never have to make such a great sacrifice!"

Ahhhhh!

William II was so angry that he scratched his ears and foreheads, kicked the table and smashed the stool, and almost hit the wall with his head.

At this time, Hitra rushed over.
