    In St. Petersburg, the fierce battle that lasted for nearly ten days finally came to an end on a windy and rainy dawn. On the ruins of the city where the flames were extinguished by wind and rain, wisps of smoke lingered. The surviving residents walked out of their hiding places in the rain and among the rubble.  Looking for food or cleaning up the bodies of the dead, groups of armed personnel of the Socialist Party escorted the prisoners towards the concentration camp where they were detained. Red flags soaked by rain were wrapped on the flagpole, showing the identity of the new owner of the city.  prestige.  On the other hand, sporadic gunshots can still be heard from the Peter and Paul Fortress, which once symbolized the majesty of the empire, indicating that the battle there has not yet completely ended, but it is no longer relevant, because this fortress also represents the most glorious Russian Empire.  Under the bombardment of four battleships of the era, it had been completely turned into ruins.  As for the fighting on the south bank of the Neva River, it had stopped long ago. The addition of the battleships immediately destroyed the fighting will of Prime Minister Kalemykin and the Duma deputies. After receiving the guarantee from the Socialist Party that they would not harm themselves and their families,  They had no choice but to raise the white flag, including the remaining approximately 30,000 Czech and Serbian mercenaries who also surrendered their weapons to the rebels.  After the Duma surrendered to the Socialist Workers' Party, including Nicholas's Guards, they also stopped resisting one after another. After all, they were not fools. They had reached this point, and it was naturally impossible for them to die for the Tsar.  But Nicholas and his most loyal guards did not surrender. They kept fighting on the Peter and Paul Fortress until the fortress turned into ruins. The attacking enemies set foot on the beach of Rabbit Island. Of course, they supported them like this.  What they do is not just loyalty. These guys know very well that even if they surrender, they will definitely die, and they may have to endure a lot of humiliation and torture. They might as well fight to the death to gain the reputation of loyalty.  ¡°For example, Wrangel¡¯s hands are stained with the blood of the people.  "Your Majesty, I have to take the first step." Wrangel, who held the pistol until he had the last bullet left, looked at the rebels who were swarming over the ruins of the fortress and stared with blood-red eyes.  Said to Nicholas ferociously.  Nicholas took off a medal from his chest with a solemn look.  Then he put it on his chest for the general who accompanied him in the fight to the last moment, and watched him put the pistol to his temple and pull the trigger, and with the sound of the gunshot, brains mixed with blood spurted out from the other side.  His Majesty the Tsar sighed and looked at the sky melancholy, probably recalling his past glory!  That glory was actually not that far away, only five years ago, and his memory was still very clear, but he had no time to recall it. The rebels who were shouting slogans to capture him alive were already climbing up the ruins of the fortress.  The guard is making his final struggle.  Then he was immediately overwhelmed by a tidal wave of enemies.  Next, it was his and the queen's turn. As the emperor, he naturally couldn't let these untouchables be captured and shot like dogs. The king has his own way of death. The injured queen next to her took out two pills solemnly.  Handing him one pill and keeping one for himself, Nicholas looked at the pills in his hand tangledly after taking them.  "Be brave!" Queen Alexandra encouraged, and then she put the pill in her mouth and swallowed it without hesitation, just as she demonstrated. Nicholas was about to put it into his mouth, but at this moment, from a distance  One of their nearest Socialist soldiers raised his submachine gun with hatred in his face.  Then the trigger was suddenly pulled, and a box of bullets poured into His Majesty the Tsar.  Poor Nicholas was beaten directly into a sieve, and fell on the ruins of the Peter and Paul Fortress like a piece of rotten wood. Her Majesty the Queen, who had already taken effect from the drug, was struggling to hold her husband's hand.  Then he closed his eyes.  Half an hour later, inside the Capitol Building in Beijing.  "It's absolutely heartbreaking and outrageous. These bastards must be punished in the most severe way. Our procrastination has caused irreparable disasters. The murder of the Russian Tsar and Queen is a violation of human justice." Emperor Yang rarely spoke in person.  Appeared on the podium of the House of Lords and roared with a ferocious face.  Of course, those congressmen understand His Majesty the Emperor's mood at this time very well.  After all, his confidante had just died. As the saying goes, a beauty can be angered. At this time, no matter what he wants to do, he must support it. Isn't it an armed intervention in Russia?  China's 10 million troops have nothing to do at this time. As for the people in the country, they won't have any objections. After all, who doesn't know about the emperor and the Russian empress? A war is completely necessary to vent his anger on the emperor.  .  So, less than an hour after the murder of Nicholas and his wife, the Chinese Congress officially passed the proposal put forward by Prime Minister Zhang Quan to intervene in the civil strife in Russia by force.  After hearing the news, Comrade Vladimir and the top leaders of the Socialist Party were all dumbfounded. Damn it, don¡¯t be so playful. Isn¡¯t this what you asked for?  You said yourself that if you help us not face Nikolai in the future, you won¡¯t have to face him if he is dead, sir.?We are all sensible people, of course we will meet your request, but, but, what are you doing?  Of course, the matter has reached this point, and there is no point in studying this issue. Since the Chinese Congress has decided to intervene with armed force, it will definitely not be able to support them anymore. Now the Socialist Party must really face this terrifying enemy, but fortunately, with Du  The horse surrendered and the tsar died. Tsarist Russia was theoretically dead. The Russian People's Republic became the only legal government in Russia. Comrade Vladimir, who had just become the chairman of the Council of Ministers, immediately issued an appeal to the people of the country again, asking the patriots of Russia.  They all took up arms to defend the motherland and fought to the end against the invaders and reactionaries.  In addition, in order to maximize the support of the people, the Socialist Party announced that the property of all nobles, capitalists, and landlords will no longer be protected by law.  "Their factories belong to the people, their land belongs to the people, their property belongs to the people, eliminate all exploiting classes, eliminate all parasites riding on the heads of the people, everything belongs to you, Russian workers, farmers and  Soldiers!" Comrade Vladimir's shouts echoed from the loudspeakers everywhere. He knew very well that the capitalists and landlords would never support him. In this case, there was no need to think about face. In order to show his break with the old world, he even  All former cabinet members, including Kalemykin who had surrendered, were shot.  After his declaration was issued, it was immediately enthusiastically supported by Russian peasant workers and even the soldiers who were watching. Legal robbery was not welcomed by anyone. The whole of Russia was quickly overwhelmed by the frenzy of attacking local tyrants. Everyone from cities to villages took action.  They got up, even women and children took action, and in the name of reactionaries and Chinese lackeys, they arrested all the capitalists and landlords for target shooting, and then divided up everything they owned, grabbed land, money, and even women, in short, with death  In the name of completing a great transfer of social wealth.  The final result of this movement was that the Socialist Workers Party completely controlled the entire Russia. Those ordinary people who were stained with blood in the campaign against local tyrants will never allow the tsarist government, which represents the interests of capitalists and landlords, to come back. The Russian army on the Western Front is waiting to be disbanded.  With the acquiescence of the Germans, their generals were quickly captured and shot at targets, and then they carried their own weapons and poured into the east, towards the battlefields against the White Guards and foreign intervention forces.  Archduke Nicholas, who was attacking Kazan, suffered a disastrous defeat under the onslaught of the Red Russian Army. More than half of the more than 20,000 people were lost and had to retreat to Ufa again. In order to cover them, the Chinese Army's bombers entered the battle for the first time, from Yekaterinburg.  More than a hundred bombers taking off from Chelyabinsk conducted a large-scale bombing of Kazan. At the same time, an army stationed in Izhevsk also made a gesture of attacking Kazan, so Grand Duke Nicholas took his  The remaining defeated troops will retreat to Ufa.  Makarov's attack on Tsaritsyn also failed, but his losses were not significant because he had control of the Volga River. Although the Black Sea Fleet's main ship was handed over to the Ottomans, the river gunboats could  However, the soldiers of the battleships and cruisers operating small gunboats of several hundred tons became Makarov's trump card. In the water network area south of Tsaritsyn, it was difficult for the Red Russian army to gain a real advantage over him.  Of course, it is impossible to really save Russia just by counting on the two of them. It is also impossible for the Chinese Army to send millions to help the Russians put down the rebellion. Therefore, those Russian prisoners of war must be armed. At this time, the Germans have nothing to do.  That¡¯s right. Because of the stolen battleship incident that resulted in the murder of the Tsar and his wife, public opinion in various countries was criticizing Germany. If they continued to obstruct this matter, it would easily arouse public outrage. Besides, it would be useless even if they objected. At worst, this matter would be destroyed  The Russian Army is included in the establishment of the Chinese Army and is nothing more than a name.  But before that, there is still a problem that needs to be solved. As the saying goes, if the name is not correct, the words will not be correct. The Tsar was killed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will naturally inherit the throne, and then the Crown Prince will personally lead the subsequent counter-insurgency war. Although the Crown Prince  His Highness is a little young, but his righteousness cannot be abandoned.  Moreover, a new Russian government also needs to be formed. Since the original Duma and cabinet collectively surrendered to the enemy, it is naturally considered to be disbanded. There must be a brand new government, such as the Duma, the Prime Minister, the General Staff, etc.  It must be matched. There is definitely no time for an election. Besides, there is no one to choose. Count Witte will directly serve as Prime Minister. It is not the first time for him anyway, and it is something he is familiar with.  Grand Duke Mikhail serves as the Speaker of the Duma, and some exiled Russian nobles serve as members of the parliament. As for Grand Duke Nicholas, he is naturally the Commander-in-Chief of the Army, and Admiral Makarov is the well-deserved Commander-in-Chief of the Navy.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
