You call me a big treacherous evil?

In the end, the Politburo reluctantly passed the proposal of a truce between Ilyich and Teutonic, which would allow Kanglian to legally cede almost the entire West Swadia region, as well as a large area of ​​​​the North Sea estuary, which would almost mean that the Second Lucian Empire All the achievements of Xituo for more than 100 years were handed over.

If the treaty was reached, the Teutons would be able to gain a safe rear and move millions of Eastern troops to fight on the Western Front.

And Kanglian will also get a valuable development opportunity to completely eliminate the feudal residue left over from the imperial era, rebuild the grassroots system of society, and blow the wind of Kangmi to the vast fields.

But at this time, a small problem appeared, that is, although the Politburo had already passed a resolution on the truce with Teutonic.

But in the end he went to negotiate with Teutonic and signed an agreement with Lev, the foreign commissioner, who was the proponent of the theory of permanent revolution and the policy of no war and no peace.

In his view, Ilyich's decision was a mistake of appeasement, and he had to save the revolution at this critical moment.

So although Lev met with the Teutonic representatives, he did not sign an agreement with the Teutonic representatives.

At two o'clock in the afternoon that day, after confirming that the communication office had not received a telegram from the negotiator, the commander of the Eastern Teton Force immediately issued a combat order according to the established plan.

Fifteen minutes later, the Teutonic forces launched a full-scale attack.

At the beginning of the negotiations, due to uncertainty about the outcome of the negotiations, Joseph ordered the troops to start combat preparations.

Although most of the troops carried out Joseph's order, some of them had clearly felt that they were unwelcome royalist troops who were dissatisfied with Kang Mi's desire to put the emperor on trial.

But Joseph's order was not carried out.

These troops raised the white flag very smoothly when the Teutonic bombardment ended, and the mechs, accompanied by infantry, began to advance, surrendered their weapons and surrendered to the Teutonic bayonets with traditional Franche etiquette.

These troops gave up resistance smoothly, and they sent Joseph good news and bad news.

The good news is that things like the large-scale mutiny that Victor was worried about before will not happen.

Because the Teutons have disarmed them.

The bad news is that with the surrender of these troops, the static defensive trench system immediately became fragmented, and the total collapse of the first line of defense has begun to enter the countdown.

And the so-called good news is always unaccompanied, while bad news likes to go out in groups.

According to the usual combat experience, this time is only when part of the defense line is breached. If a highly mobile elite force can launch a counterattack, the position can be regained.

But unfortunately, it is usually the mecha company composed of knights who undertake this kind of firefighting task.

These mecha companies have already entered a state of failure, and the newly reorganized mecha units have not even figured out how to operate the mechas.

So it took only half a day until it got dark at nine o'clock that night.

The Teutonic troops, which made the most rapid progress, have advanced the front line by [-] kilometers.

In the front line, the Teutonics have created several protrusions, and as long as the follow-up troops keep up, they can encircle the Kanglian troops in the front trenches at any time.

Faced with this dire situation, Joseph asked the rear to mobilize party members and the Communist Youth League to prepare to form new troops.

Troops were also mobilized immediately to prepare for a counterattack, hoping to eliminate the protrusion on the front line, or open the passage to give those troops in the pocket a chance to retreat.

After one night's dispatch, an even fiercer battle ushered in the front line the next day.

Unlike the royalist troops who defected and disarmed on the first day and surrendered with Lilly, after one night's dispatch, those politically reliable troops were also mobilized to the front line.

However, due to the full mobilization and the lack of suitable vehicles, most of the troops did not enter the position with heavy weapons.

So when these troops faced the Teutonic mechs, they could only stick to it with courage and perseverance.

What often happens is that after the death of the company commander, the political commissar is on top, after the political commissar is dead, the platoon leader is on top, after the platoon leader is dead, the non-commissioned officer is on top, and when the last soldier falls, the Teutons can completely occupy this line of defense.

Even though the frontline soldiers fought bravely, the Teutons advanced another [-] kilometers on the second day, and were about to complete the encirclement at several key positions.

Once the encirclement is successful, Kanglian will not only lose at least three divisions of about 5 troops, but also a huge gap will appear on the front.

At this time, Joseph has no reserve team to fill this gap.

However, that night, the First Army, which was fully assembled except for a company heading to Tsaritsyn to prepare for Victor's evacuation, arrived at the front line by train.

Then, regardless of repairs, he launched a counterattack against the Teutons that night.

This unexpected counterattack successfully leveled part of the line of defense, preventing the front line from completely collapsing.

However, the Army on the Western Front suffered a major defeat not long ago, and then experienced mutiny and seizure of power.

The morale of the Western Front Corps, which had hardly been properly repaired and replenished, began to decline significantly after only two days after the launch, even with the encouragement of the political commissars.

Many soldiers began to ask the political commissar, why Komi promised to end the war before he came to power, but after Komi came to power, we still have to fight the Teutons here, when will the war end?We've had enough of this damn war.

When Joseph on the front line and the Politburo in Fort St. Nicholas were in a state of desperation, one person was about to rescue them from the quagmire.



049 slip away

The boot camp felt almost like home to Victor.

After all, at the beginning of the crossing, Victor, who had not yet distinguished the north, south, east, and west, was stuffed into the barracks and started to kick.

But Victor still has a lot of things to do, and he can't rest now.

Anton's Freeman Cavalry Regiment did not find Victor in the search inside and outside the city.

After this senior member of Commie left the prison, it was like melting into the air, leaving no trace for tracing.

In the end, the military police colonel responsible for chasing Victor had to report to General Anton that Victor might have escaped from under their noses in some way they didn't know yet.

This caused Admiral Anton to lose his temper severely in his office, for which two precious vases also suffered misfortune.

However, General Anton didn't criticize the military police colonel too much. After all, the colonel had done a good job before, and it was better than hunting down a senior member of the Communist Party.

It is more important to continue to prepare for war.

At this time, there was an undercurrent surging in Lucia.

When the emperor was still there, all the conflicts focused on the emperor.

And now these contradictions are concentrated on Kang Mi.

After all, whether it is for the nobles, the bourgeoisie, or the Taizheng Church, the conflict between them and the emperor is just a conflict of interests.

This kind of contradiction can still be compromised and compromised. It is nothing more than who eats more and who eats less.

But the conflict with Kangmi is not a matter of eating more and eating less.

After the shock of the emperor's abdication had passed, some respectable gentlemen tried to save themselves.

At this time, General Anton, who held a heavy army, naturally became their best support object or agent.

So decent gentlemen, elegant nobles, and pious priests began to send envoys to find General Anton.

Said that they will provide Anton with all the help he needs, and only ask Anton to deal with the second ministers who have no father and no king in Fort St. Nicholas.

Anton didn't refuse the gentlemen's request, but he didn't do it right away either.

Because although Anton has a heavy army in his hands, due to the collapse of the empire and Kang Mi's rapid seizure of power, Anton's hands are now seriously short of supplies.

Originally, in order to return home quickly, Anton took the troops lightly into battle and returned quickly.

Anyway, with the support of the emperor, there will be no shortage of supplies for internal operations within the empire.

But when the empire was destroyed overnight, Admiral Anton suddenly found out that he was running too slow, and there was no more supplies now!

Although Tsaritsyn is the largest city in southern Lucia, it is also an industrial and commercial center.

However, it is really difficult to support an army of 60 people at this industrial level.

Like the Freeman Cavalry Regiment and Infantry Division, it's okay to say.

These troops can basically deal with them as long as they are given food and bullets.

As for the technical units such as knight units and artillery in the army group, if there is no stable supply, it will basically not take long, and it will become a one-time unit.

Especially the mechas of the knight company, as long as these things move, they are throwing gold rubles into the boiler.

So although Anton insisted that he was not stingy with using force, in fact, he did not save enough supplies for a battle.

General Anton can only launch all attacks on Kanglian except military, and provide all support except help to the gentlemen who want to overthrow Kangmi.

As a general, Anton knew that compared with Kanglian, which controlled most of the country, his biggest advantage now was that he had a well-trained army with high morale.

As long as he can gather supplies and quickly launch a sharp and large-scale offensive, he has great hopes of defeating this unjust regime just like the American Confederation defeated the Federation.

The most elite Virginia Legion of the Confederacy that year withstood the attack of the federal army in the Battle of Manassas, and then relied on the advantages of having many veterans in the legion and having more and better knights. After the reinforcements arrived, they directly fought back in a counterattack defeated the federal army.

Then General Jackson took the Virginia Army, which had hardly suffered too many losses, and directly marched northward into Washington.

Although Lincoln, the last president of the American Federation, insisted on boosting morale in the White House, he was eventually hanged at the gate of the White House by angry Southern soldiers after the White House was breached.

As the largest war before the Great War, Admiral Anton also studied this war, and came up with a tactic that allowed him to fight according to Bryansk during his expedition to the Bryansk Empire.

Although part of the reason is that the Bryansk people are really good at it, the equation that a knight company cooperates with a freeman cavalry regiment is equal to victory is still deeply engraved in his mind.

So General Anton, who began to try his best to hoard supplies, naturally didn't have the energy to pay attention to Victor, who might have escaped and ascended to heaven long ago.

Admiral Anton repeatedly told those who came to ask him to send troops, I need supplies, I need a lot of supplies, give me the supplies, and I will return your victory.

After discovering that Anton had stopped hunting Victor, Victor left several political commissars behind and continued to train troops for himself in General Anton's recruit camp.

Then, on a dark and windy night, he climbed over the wall of the new barracks and left the new barracks.

Then with the help of the local party branch, contacted the reconnaissance company of the teaching regiment that had penetrated into Tsaritsin.

With the troops in his hands, Victor certainly wouldn't just leave with his tail between his legs.

After all, all the guests have come, and it is really not what a guest should do if they don't leave some gifts for the host.

As a good guest, Victor thoughtfully left a small gift in the three warehouses of Army Group South.

Then he touched the train station and drove his own armored train directly.

When getting on the train, Victor said cursingly, Anton, you bastard, you actually removed all the artistic elements such as the slogan and the red star emblem on my armored train with such an artistic flavor. up.

But Admiral Anton that night was even more angry than Victor, whose precious armored train was dismantled and decorated.

Because the little gift left by Victor was a little hot, it caused a little damage to the supplies of the Army Group South.

This little damage is actually not a big deal, that is, in addition to burning half of the spare parts of the knight company, the shells that exploded also reimbursed a gendarmerie battalion.

050 Victor's Wrath

When Victor sat on the armored train, with the posture that I don’t want the front of the car after running this trip, he jumped repeatedly on the edge of the explosion all the way and rushed back to Fort St. Nicholas.

Victor directly rushed into the Politburo, exercised his rights as a member of the Politburo for the first time, and called an emergency meeting.

In this meeting, Victor can't be said to be amiable, he can only be said to be furious.

Many years later, John, Secretary of Brandonia Comm (♂), who was visiting the Confederation at that time, wrote in his memoirs.

I will always remember that day, when the comrades of the delegation and I were discussing with the comrades of Kanglian whether to organize the Commi Party members of Brandenia to come to Lucia to defend Kanglian with armed forces, I heard a It sounded like a bomb exploding.

At first I thought it was the Teutons or those noble white soldiers who launched a sneak attack here.

The sound was so loud that it sounded like a heavy cannon was bombarding it.

The comrades of Kanglian were also very flustered at the beginning, they had never encountered such a thing.

So they let us wait here for a while.

The comrades from Kanglian came back soon, and he told us not to be nervous, because the Politburo was in a meeting upstairs.

Comrade Victor had a little disagreement with the other committee members.

This is the first time I heard Victor's voice.

Even though the people downstairs were overwhelmed by Victor's roar in rage, the other members of the Politburo in the conference room fell into a state of nothingness under Victor's roar.

In fact, at the beginning of the meeting, Victor was still suppressing his emotions.

After all, meetings are for communication. As a member of the Politburo, I must respect the collective leadership and maintain the authority of the Politburo.

But five minutes into the meeting, Victor finished his point.

And the contradiction between us and Teutonic is left over from the previous government of the Second Empire. The contradiction between imperialism based on territory and hegemony can be reconciled.

Especially now that America has declared its participation in the war, as long as the Teutons still want to win the war, or achieve a relatively decent armistice agreement.

Then we will be able to conclude a truce with the Teutons, even though they are still attacking now.

The Teutons will not reject our peace offer as long as we are willing to negotiate.

And the contradiction between us and the domestic bourgeoisie and the old aristocracy is irreconcilable, because our goal is to completely destroy the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie, so except for a few nobles and bourgeoisie who are willing to give up their privileges and wealth, the rest The nobles and bourgeoisie will fight us bloody to the end.
