Chapter 210 Moscow Changes

Russia rejected China's olive branch, and the war still had to continue.

Of course, what happened at the end of July also had a significant impact on the battle situation.

First of all, the Russian authorities clearly realize that if they continue to fight, Russia will definitely shed the last drop of blood, and it may not be possible to win.

At that time, the most direct influence was that Brushilov resigned.

Objectively speaking, this talented Russian chief of staff has allowed Russia to persist for at least half a year. If it weren't for Nozerov and the Russian president's frequent ruthless intervention and random command, Brushilov could have even done a better job, allowing Russia to persist for longer.

Unfortunately, Brushilov was the only Russian general with a clear mind at that time.

According to the information disclosed after the war, at that time among the Russian army, only Brushilov believed that the conditions for war issued by China should be accepted, and decently withdraw from this doomed war, save thousands of Russian officers and soldiers, and allow Russia to maintain the basis for post-war recovery.

This proposal directly ruined Brushilov's future.

In fact, no one in the Russian army could replace Brushilov, and no one was willing to be the chief of staff.

Anyone with a little bit of mind knows that whoever becomes the chief of staff of the Russian Army will have to bear the burden of defeat, which is equivalent to making self-sacrifice.

As a result, in a few months, the Russian army did not have the Chief of Staff.

At that time, Russian President asked Nozirov to directly command the Russian army to fight.

Although this arrangement made many Russian generals dissatisfied, no one dared to propose it because everyone knew that no matter who would command the Russian army to fight, the result would be similar.

The second influence is that the United States once again puts Russia first and begins to increase its troops to Russia.

In fact, it is useless to increase troops to Russia at this time. You should know that after the Chinese army captured Volgograd, there were no insurmountable difficulties and obstacles on the road to Moscow. It was only a matter of time to occupy Moscow.

Objectively speaking, what the United States should do is prepare for Russia's defeat, that is, where to build a new strategic line of defense after Russia's defeat.

Thinking in this direction, you can find that the US military should increase its troops to the Middle East, rather than to Russia.

The reason is very simple. After Russia was defeated, China had no worries on the land battlefield and would send ground troops to the Middle East without any scruples. The next defeated was Israel. Unless the United States intends to withdraw from the Eurasian and African continent, it would have to withstand the heavy pressure in the Middle East.

What the United States needs to do is to increase troops to the Middle East and strive for a major victory before Russia is defeated.

To put it bluntly, if the US-Israeli coalition can defeat Syria before Russia loses, it will be very likely to convince Turkey to join the war, at least make Turkey more inclined to support the United States. In this way, China's victory on the Russian battlefield will be difficult to affect the Middle East battlefield, and at most it will not win the next victory in Iran. More importantly, Turkey's control and the Eurasian continental bridge can offset the impact of Russia's defeat on the Eastern European region, so that more Eastern European countries will continue to remain neutral.

It can be said that other than that, there is no better choice in the United States.

Unfortunately, the United States definitely could not have left Russia at that time.

The reason is that if the United States does not increase its troops to Russia, it may have chosen to "gloriously withdraw from the war" before the Chinese army reaches Moscow.

At that time, there were already similar signs.

If Russia is defeated quickly, the United States will not be able to achieve a major victory in the Middle East battlefield, and it will also be defeated in the Middle East.

Simply put, no matter whether you have the confidence to help Russia overcome difficulties, the United States has to fight all its strength.

This has a third impact.

After the United States began to increase its troops to Russia in large numbers, Wei Chenglong made a special trip to Beijing, while Mu Haoyang recruited Yu Shihui and Jiang Bowen back.

In the end, the three army generals made an appointment to attack in a coordinated manner on the mainland battlefield and the Middle East battlefield.

It is not very accurate to say that "the appointment" is made, because Wei Chenglong is the chief of staff of the army, so it should be under Wei Chenglong's deployment that the army will launch an attack on both battlefields at the same time.

According to the agreement, Jiang Bowen will first make efforts on the Sinai Peninsula to restrain the US-Israeli coalition forces. Then Yu Shihui will make efforts on the Syrian-Israeli battlefield with Jordan, forcing the United States to increase troops to Israel, and Wei Chenglong will advance to Moscow in August, and after attacking Moscow, he will transfer troops to the Middle East.

However, the final actual execution method has completely changed.

Jiang Bowen did make efforts on the Sinai Peninsula, but the battlefield was not near the Suez Canal, but on a small battlefield controlled by Egyptian troops at the southern end of the Sinai Peninsula. Moreover, the counterattack force was only one army, not two, and in the end, only twenty Israeli troops were restrained.

Yu Shihui did not fulfill his promise, and he was unable to organize a counterattack until Wei Chenglong launched an attack on the mainland battlefield.

As for Wei Chenglong, he delayed the march into Moscow until the end of September, rather than the planned August, and did not go in sync with the battles on the Middle East battlefield.

There are many factors that lead to this situation, mainly because the difficulty of strategic coordination is too great.

At that time, there was another factor that could not be ignored, that was, there were a large number of allied troops on the battlefield in the Middle East, and these troops were directly obeyed Qi Kaiwei, rather than being commanded by the theater commander. Although Qi Kaiwei made efforts, he still encountered many problems when coordinating the Allied forces' operations. The most fundamental reason was that each allied countries had their own ideas, and the generals of the countries who commanded the Allied forces also had their own ideas.

These problems will not be resolved until 2055 after the Fifth Summit of the Oriental Alliance Group.

Of course, the result was that Jiang Bowen became the commander of the Middle East War Zone, while Yu Shihui, who was not good at doing things, was transferred to the commander of the South Adam War Zone.

In fact, Yu Shihui was a little unfair because he had tried his best, but the problems he faced were beyond his ability.

If such a thing happened in 2053, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, when Wei Chenglong launched the "Battle of Moscow", the Russian army was already a mob, and the additional reinforcements sent by the United States could not supplement the entire front. Although after the Chinese army captured Tula and Ryazan, the Russian President appointed Julianov as the chief of staff, as well as the commander of the Moscow garrison, and awarded him the rank of marshal, this did not change anything, but added millions of casualties.

In fact, the main reason why Giulianov was reused at this time was Brushilov's resignation.

At that time, in the Russian army, only Julianov's fame could replace Brushilov, because through the Battle of Akhtubinsk, many Russians regarded him as a savior of the nation, believing that only his ruthless fighting style could save Russia.

Julianov did, and did it very extreme.

According to his order, all civilians were not allowed to leave Moscow. Men and women, both men and women, had to serve in the military or work for the army, such as building fortifications, transporting materials to the front line, and rescue the wounded. In actual implementation, the scope of forced recruitment by the Russian army was expanded to all children over 1.4 meters tall and the elderly who could walk.

At that time, except for the baby who was still consuming breasts, all civilians were placed under house arrest in Moscow city by the Russian army commanded by Julianov. According to the order issued by Julianov, the Russian army could shoot any civilian who fled Moscow without authorization.

As the Chinese army approached step by step, Julianov asked all military and civilians to stick to every inch of land.

At that time, he issued a very extreme order, that is, the defenders on the rear defense line must supervise the defenders on the front defense line. If the defenders in front escape, the defenders in the rear would kill them. The last line of defense of the Russian army was the military police force directly controlled by Julianov.

According to Julianov's deployment, the 18 million soldiers and civilians in Moscow were all soldiers fighting against the invaders.

You know, at that time, Moscow concentrated half of the population in Russia's controlled areas.

Unfortunately, the Chinese army did not attack Moscow, but adopted the siege tactic and first dispatched ten armies to surround Moscow.

At that time, it was still early November, and Wei Chenglong had enough time.

In fact, when Moscow has been surrounded, the Chinese army only needs one day to allow Wei Chenglong to fulfill the guarantee made to the head of state, that is, to invade Moscow.

As a result, Giulianov's high-pressure policy did not have a positive effect at all.

During the siege of more than a month, the military and civilians of Moscow suffered from war and their reserves of daily necessities were exhausted in mid-December.

At that time, Moscow didn't even have enough fuel for heating.

You know, in the cold winter, there is no way to keep warm, which means that thousands of people are frozen to death every day.

On Christmas Eve on December 24, a small group of Russian troops took advantage of Julianov's visit to the troops to visit the officers and soldiers, controlled the Moscow Garrison Command, and used a gun to force the headquarters' communications staff to issue an order to surrender to the Chinese army. Then, they ordered the Russian troops on the peripheral defense line to raise white flags.

As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain of defeat.

When the military and civilians of Moscow had no fighting spirit, the situation immediately lost control, and almost all Russian troops accepted orders issued by the headquarters.

After receiving the news, Julianov attempted to return to the garrison headquarters to suppress the rebellion.

However, his movements were too slow. An air assault force of the Chinese Army arrived half an hour later and controlled the Moscow Garrison Command.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Julianov gave up his resistance and fled Moscow through a secret tunnel accompanied by the guards. However, when he reported to the Russian president, he claimed that he had fought a bloody way out under the cover of the guard battalion.

On December 25, just dawn, five armies of the Chinese Army drove into Moscow from five directions.

In fact, it was not until the Chinese army could truly occupy Moscow after the reversal of the year.
