Inside the underground headquarters of Novosibirsk City, the swaying lights make the headquarters light and dark, and the occasional explosion above the head, the dust falls on the map.

In less than a week, millions of Russian troops had rout thousands of kilometers, stretching from central Siberia to western Siberia, and even Novosibirsk had become a lonely city.

The pain in Nikolayevich’s heart, as you can imagine.

What angered him the most was that the rout along the way, millions of large armies were destroyed and surrendered by the establishment, and most of the troops were directly thrown away their weapons and waited for surrender.

The fact that millions of troops were swept by hundreds of thousands of enemy troops was an unprecedented shame for the Russian Empire.

He wanted to change something, but by now he had not turned around.

He had learned that the enemy had advanced to Omsk, and that the enemy's paratroopers had been airborne in Chelyabinsk and Yekaterinburg, and that perhaps the next war would break out in Moscow.

This is a war that can be called a super nest, the enemy's means have never been seen before, the war from the beginning, completely beyond the control of Nikolayevich, never seen such a fierce attack, so crazy speed of the advance.

In just a week, thousands of kilometers of the front line was broken, the enemy's air force was sharp, able to airdrop a large number of soldiers to their own back, and heard that they could also transport the tanks to the back, coupled with the endless attack of a large number of tanks in front, which led to the collapse of the Russian army.

Because there are enemies everywhere, some soldiers are fighting and retreating, but they find that their rear has been occupied by the enemy, and a large number of comrades-in-arms have become prisoners.

This war cannot be fought at all, nor is it fought in this way.

At this time, Nikolaevich had to admit that the enemy was very terrible, the weapons and equipment advanced, and the tactical level was simply appalling.

The Russian army is not without combat power, but it has no fighting power, and sometimes there is no enemy to fight, and the war on the battlefield before and after the war is over.

“General, the Chinese Empire has begun to go on again, their tanks have appeared in two blocks, our soldiers can’t stand it, we are compressing our defenses and forcing our soldiers to surrender.”

A major general burrowed into the underground command post and reported aloud to Nikolayevich.

Another major general who came in together shook the earth on his body, wrapped around him, wrapped around a lot of gauze, and covered with yellow earth in uniform, blood everywhere, and said to Nikolaevich:

“General, the Third Army of Siberia, came the news that they had failed to break through and besieged by the enemy tank forces, and the 3rd Army sent a final message claiming that they would choose to surrender.”

“The First Army of the Far East successfully broke through west, and they did not cover the Third Army or our southern front, resulting in the entire encirclement of the Third Army, and the two armies of the southern front, which surrendered to the enemy an hour ago.”

Nikolayevich said that the whole person, like an angry lion, suddenly took a slap on the table and scolded: "That group of god bastards, dogs, motherly garbage, actually only cares about their own escape in this period, the most hateful thing is that the whole First Army of those fools, do not see that this is the enemy deliberately let them go, and then use it to completely destroy the main force of the north and south?"The First Army, without the help of the Third Army and the two armies, thought they could escape?"

If the First Army could really escape, perhaps Nikolayevich would not be so angry, but the Third Army, regardless of the behavior of the left and right wings, not only buried the main forces on both sides, but also seemed to break through successfully, but the result was a very stupid head into the area where the enemy's heavy troops were massed.

At present, Novosibirsk has long been a lonely city, surrounded by enemies, and it is not available to break through to the west.

Nikolayevich originally intended the Third Army to cover the main forces of the left and right wings, and break out south or north, and the result was the exact opposite.

All the men in the headquarters were cold, and Nikolayevich finally sighed and ordered: "Let the commander of the Second Army come to me, I personally deployed the defenses of Novosibirsk, the Slavic nation had no cowards, there were dead warriors, I would be like a nail, rooted in this place, so that the enemy could not use this railway."

In response to Nikolayevich, however, a helpless voice said: “The Second Army has been dispersed, the commander of the regiment has been killed in battle by enemy snipers, and nearly half of the troops of the Second Army have surrendered.”

Another officer said with a low head: "At present, the troops we can command together may not even be ten thousand, most of them are remnants, there is a lack of weapons and ammunition and food, and the available artillery is only a seventy-five mm field gun, which does not threaten the enemy's tanks at all, and the morale of the officers and soldiers is very low."

“This unit is under my command at the moment, and assure you of our greatness that we will never surrender and will fight until the last soldier.”The officer who had spoken before said again.

Nikolayevich glanced at all the men in the command and said, "In the end, there are still blood in our army, and if we can hold here, the hundreds of thousands of troops deployed by the enemy will lead to the weakness of the successor, and our army will be able to block the enemy's attack in Chelyabinsk and Yekaterinburg, and France will be ready to fight."Gentlemen, victory will be ours, and do not give up.”

“Yes, General!”

Everyone in the command shouted.

The gaunon-tight then went on to say: "According to the enemy's mode of operation, under the field defense, we have no ability to resist at all, they can call artillery support very quickly, the infantry can call tanks and armored vehicles, our defenses will be quickly destroyed by the enemy's superior fire, and we currently have no way to deal with the enemy tanks, even 75 mm field guns, and can not destroy the enemy's tanks in direct air."

“And according to our findings, the enemy’s combat units are so strong that we even send communications radios to infantry squads, which allows one of the enemy’s infantry squads to call for support at any time, the most terrible or hidden snipers, most of whom are killed in the hands of these snipers.”

“Our troops will not be able to afford, therefore, if the field continues, and our enemies are probably only a few thousand.”

Nikolayevich thought for a moment and then ordered: "Then order the troops, give up all street defenses, turn all into houses and alleys to fight, the enemy's forward offensive, it is impossible to stop here for a large number of troops, this may be our opportunity."

“Yes, sir.”

The two officers saluted at the same time and withdrew from the headquarters, and within this underground headquarters, calm was restored.

Only Nikolayevich’s heavy gasp, and he knew very well that his last hour was near.

Looking back on the past week, he fully felt that the enemy was more powerful than his own side.

Millions of Russian elite troops, these are the elite forces mobilized from the Western Front to the Eastern Front, and are Russia's powerful regiments to deter Europe.

In a week's time, Russia's strongest army was finished.

This was not only his last moment, but also, most likely, the last moment of the Russian Empire.

In the face of the enemy, Nikolayevich did not have the idea of despair, because his heart was dead.

From the time the enemy showed his thorny, Nikolayevich himself had no confidence in victory.

It was a very unfair war, with soldiers with guns to face a cluster of ground armored, fighter jets and bombers in the sky, and the result was naturally a massacre.

Nikolayevich was not worried about his fate, he was really worried about the fate of the Russian Empire.

Once the cities of Chelyabinsk and Yekaterinburg were broken, the enemy's battle was only about a thousand kilometers away from Moscow.

And in this thousand kilometers, Russia can not find a decent force to resist the enemy's attack.

Nikolayevich knew this, the enemy's generals must also know, otherwise the enemy will not attack thousands of kilometers in depth.

This tactic, which is in the enemy's powerful weapons and equipment, encircles millions of Russian elite troops, and opens the door to the Russian European defense line.

A few years have passed since the beginning of the war, Russia has lost thousands of kilometers of land from the Far East to this place, and the remaining more than a thousand kilometers, how long can it last?

No one can appreciate the fire in Nikolaevich's heart at this moment, and he can't understand what he sees in his eyes at this moment, which is a vision of the super-land power of the great power going to destruction.

“If Russia had advanced weapons and equipment, would the war be what it is today?”Nikolayevich thought for a moment, but he could not answer this question.

Or he already has an answer inside, but he can’t answer it.

For the past seven days, Nikolayevich has been analyzing the enemy's offensive rhythm.

It is a terrible conclusion to be drawn that this army can sweep the army of any country in the world.

Not to mention the advanced weapons and equipment, nor to mention the enemy's brave soldiers, that is to say that the enemy's logistical ability is enough to make any country in the world ashamed.

This point has hardly stopped from the enemy tanks, and the artillery has barely stopped along the way.

Tanks, this kind of thing Nikolayevich already know quite well, requires a lot of fuel to support tank operations.

After advancing thousands of kilometers, the tank assault process did not stop, which means that the enemy's logistics supply is perfect and can replenish the fuel consumed by the tank at any time.

In contrast, Russia, the logistics of even hundreds of tanks are difficult to guarantee, the enemy, the number of tanks guaranteed is thousands, and more armored vehicles and trucks, this logistics is unprecedented.

The same is true of the supply of artillery, which can be supported by artillery at any time, and also shows that the enemy's artillery propulsion and supply speed are all very fast.

The main point is that the enemy supplies from the Far East to central Siberia, and the long supply lines are often desperate, but the other side seems to be unaffected.

Based on the logistics, Nikolayevich already knew that his failure was not wronged at all, and the responsibility was not in the officers who were greedy and afraid of death, but the enemy was really strong.

Even Russian forces with the same equipment are difficult to deal with such a terrible enemy.

"After saving for nearly two years, after the whole world thought that the Chinese Empire was not so, it was a terrible blow, completely wiping out all the main forces of my Russian Empire, Fan Yize, what a terrible person you are, the war is as you once said, even if we are not at peace, it will end soon, your self-confidence, I am incomped."

Nikolayevich said to himself.

Tall and burly, despite his age, he is still very instrumented, from an objective point of view, he is very witty and very capable.

As the supreme commander of Russia in the history of World War I, in the historical space and time, Nikolaevich's performance on the battlefield is indeed true, and his efficiency command has caused the Germans a headache.

The Grand Duke of Russia, a member of the royal family, the Russian Emperor Nicholas II to call him an uncle, at this moment, he slowly pulled out his command knife, engraved on it his brother, that is, the gift of Tsar Alexander III, the sword is his pride, is his heroic performance in the Russian-Turkish war honor.

Pulling out the knife, Nikolay stepped out of the command, accompanied by a dozen guards, and began to patrol the defenses in Novosibirsk at this moment.

He told every soldier that he was with them and that the Russian royal family was with them.

During the tour, he saw enemy positions less than 200 meters away, and he saw a flag planted at the commanding heights of a building under the cover of enemy machine guns.

The flying red flag, like a sharp blade stung Nikolaevich's heart.

After a short respite, the machine gun roared again, a large number of machine gun fire to cover the enemy's infantry and tanks, stationed in a church of Russian soldiers, relying on various obstacles, step by step to resist the attack.

The 10,000 Russian soldiers were effectively fought, often a building repeatedly contested, and the battle lasted for a whole day.

The city is already broken, and the focus of the city center is turning into ruins.

A day of fighting, Russia despaired that their last reserve was exhausted, without a counter-offensive force, and the enemy's attacks were endless.

The next morning, the battle in Novosibirsk subsided, and the soldiers found Nikolaevich's body, and he chose to commit suicide in the country.
