Although Wang Shizhen's Siberian Front Army was indeed unable to rush to Omsk for reinforcements in the shortest time, the Sub-Front Army, which had completely annihilated the Russian 16th Group Army, could. Just when hundreds of thousands of Chinese and Russian troops were fighting in Omsk, China
The Eighth Army has already moved north to Ayaguz, and then they will repeat the march of the Ninth Army to reinforce as quickly as possible.:3w.
At the same time, the Russian Fifth Army, which had withdrawn from the European battlefield, had also arrived in Yekaterinburg, followed closely behind by the Russian Sixth Army.
Also behind the Chinese Eighth Army, the Eleventh Army has also moved north from Tashkent, and the Tenth Army, which has fought along the Trans-Caspian Railway to Turkmenbashi, has also boarded a train and returned to Tashkent to go north for reinforcements. There are more than two million troops on both sides.
They all flocked to the small city of Omsk, preparing to start a real decisive battle here.
Just as the entire world's attention was drawn to Omsk, the Allied Powers' final offensive began on the southern shore of the Caspian Sea.
"Si?" Emperor Yang said in astonishment in the hot spring.
"Your Majesty, the Russian Eleventh Army has landed in northern Persia and has begun to attack Tehran." The chief attendant said respectfully. Since the arrival of the dragon, it is obvious that Emperor Yang's level has truly risen to the level of a god. Even the people around him
People's attitudes have undergone qualitative changes, even Yuan Shichang is no exception.
"What are you doing?" The emperor said somewhat doubtfully under the comfort of the maid's little hands, but he soon understood: "Why did the British come to sue for peace again a few days ago? They have been making trouble for a long time in preparation.
Okay, join me as an army."
"What do you mean?" the chief attendant asked.
"Simple, capture Tehran, and then attack southward along the railway from Tehran to Basra, cutting off our land transportation to Europe. When our European Legion's logistics supply is insufficient and we cannot continue the offensive, we will naturally accept their conditions.
Armistice." The emperor sneered.
"What shall we do?" asked the chief attendant.
"Never mind them, what's the big deal even if they can capture Basra? Instead of taking the Baghdad railway, we can still take the Hejaz railway. Besides, even if they can cut off the Hejaz railway, it's nothing more than continuing to fight in Ottoman territory.
If they are interested, we will stay with them even if they fight for another four years. Anyway, it is not our land that will be destroyed." The emperor said casually and then retreated into the spring to enjoy life.
He is living a comfortable life here, while Muzaffar al-Din Shah in Tehran is almost crying. He is bent on taking advantage of the loser, and then establishes the image of a generational king in front of his people, so as to save his country.
The crumbling rule is now better. Not only has the lost dog been defeated, but the country is about to be destroyed. What is this? 200,000 Russian troops led by Brusilov came from the Volga River,
Countless merchant ships, passenger ships, and even inland water tankers carrying crude oil from the Baku oil field came from Baku suddenly and forcefully landed at more than a dozen landing points along the Caspian Sea coast in northern Persia.
Of course, it cannot be said to be a forced landing, because the Persian army did not block it at all. There was only one division on guard in this area, and they were still motley crews with little combat effectiveness and little will to fight. One look at the seemingly endless Russian troop transport ships on the sea.
, the Persian troops in this division ran away without firing a single shot.
This is not surprising. The internal political situation in Persia is chaotic. Although he has made a lot of money from oil in recent years, Muzaffar al-Din Shah has basically gone to Europe to pick up girls. This guy is famous in Europe for being stupid and rich.
.When there was no oil revenue in history, he even sold the country's interests in exchange for loans to go to Europe. Now he has a steady stream of oil revenue. That's not a big deal. Even if he doesn't pick up girls, money is still the main thing.
It is used to arm his most elite army group. Like other miscellaneous brands, not only is the equipment poor, but even the military pay is often not paid. At this time, these people will not sacrifice their lives for him.
As for those who could sacrifice their lives for him, they were all piled up on the battlefield hundreds of kilometers away, fighting side by side with the Ottoman army.
Besides, no one in Persia, from the ministers to the common people, liked this king. Historically, he was ousted in 1907 and died of illness shortly after. In this time and space, because he had two backers, Yang Feng and William, so
No one dared to touch him, but no matter the ministers or the people, they all wished that he would be killed by the Russians quickly and worry less. Therefore, when Brusilov marched towards Tehran after landing, not only was there no Persian army to stop him, but
Some Persians also took the initiative to guide him.
It is only a hundred kilometers from the Russian landing point to Tehran. As the best general of the Russian army, Brusilov not only brought hundreds of vehicles this time, but also brought a tank brigade.
With multiple Lynx tanks leading the way, a brigade of Russian infantry and a Cossack cavalry division arrived at the gates of Tehran in just half a day without any hindrance. At this time, Muzaffar al-Din, who was slow to react, had not yet left his palace.
Well, I was suddenly blocked in the city!
There is also a Guards Division of his in Tehran, which can be regarded as an elite force. Of course, this elite only appears on the outside. After all, as a Guards Division, they have never been on the battlefield. Fortunately, since it is a Guards Division, what will happen to him?
Loyalty is naturally no problem. After the Russian troops arrived at the city, the Guards Division quickly began to deploy defenses. The soldiers who had been enjoying high salaries also showed strong fighting will. Unfortunately, all this was lost after seeing the Russians' battle.
The vehicles and heavy artillery were all destroyed by fear.
The first person to be struck down by fear was His Majesty the King himself. Muzaffar al-Din, who had been lingering in the gentle countryside all his life, felt his legs weak when he saw the black holes outside the city.
"How about we contact and surrender?" he asked the Prime Minister next to him cautiously.
"Your Majesty, isn't this good? We haven't fought yet." The Prime Minister said hesitantly. In fact, His Excellency the Prime Minister also had this idea, but it would be too shameful to surrender without firing a shot. Besides, he still has tens of thousands of troops here.
Woolen cloth.
"Even if we insist on resisting, what's the point? We have less than 10,000 people, and the Russians are said to have hundreds of thousands. Let alone us, even if the First Army comes back, we will not be able to defeat it. Since Tehran will sooner or later
If they are all going to fall, then we don’t let this city be devastated by the war. Alas, at that time, the people were displaced and the city was reduced to ruins. How could I bear it!" His Majesty the King said with compassion.
"Your Majesty, how can this be done? We are strong enough to fight the Russians. Not only do we have enough defenses in Tehran, we also have a large amount of weapons and ammunition, and there are hundreds of thousands of people. As long as your Majesty pays heavy rewards to recruit soldiers, in a short time
They can arm tens of thousands of troops and then engage in street fighting with the Russians to stall for time. The Ottomans and Chinese will definitely not want to see the Russians occupy Tehran and then attack Basra southward along the railway. It won't be long before they arrive via the railway for reinforcements.
." At this time, a Guards officer next to him said with dignity.
"Major Reza, do you want to disobey His Majesty's will?" The Prime Minister shouted with a serious face. It is obvious that under the current circumstances, the Prime Minister does not want to be loyal to the country.
At this time, other officers of the Guards also wanted to fight to the end, and some wanted to surrender to the Russians. Muzaffar al-Din himself was also struggling there. While there was a lot of discussion, the Russian troops outside the city had already dragged him
The Chinese-made 155mm heavy howitzer was set up. After determining the coordinates, it then aimed at the city of Tehran and roared. The nearest shell even landed less than a hundred meters away from Muzaffar al-Din. Look,
Seeing the soldiers flying up in the flames of the explosion, His Majesty the King screamed without hesitation: "Surrender, surrender quickly!"
Well, since His Majesty the King insisted on his will, the Guards officers had no choice but to keep their mouths shut. Although Major Reza and several other officers still showed unwillingness, the general trend was that there was no way to change it.
When the second round of Russian artillery shells hit Tehran, the white flag was also raised.
On the Russian artillery position in the distance, General Brusilov wiped his eyes in disbelief. He probably had an unreal feeling. It's no wonder that the war has been going on for five years and the Russian army has never
If you encounter such an opponent, every victory will not be achieved through bloody battles. Even if the Allies have the worst fighting ability on the Eastern Front, such a situation will not happen to the Romanians.
Of course, such a good thing was what he could not ask for. Immediately afterwards, the Russian army marched into Tehran in large numbers. As for Muzaffar al-Din, after consulting Nicholas, this king who was also widely popular in Europe received a satisfactory response.
Due to his status and treatment, he was put under house arrest in the Persian palace. Immediately afterwards, Brusilov did not stop at all, loaded the Russian troops on all the trains he could find, and began to kill Basra, five hundred kilometers away, day and night.
The railway system in Persia is much faster than that in Russia, because the railway built by China does not run coal-burning steam locomotives, but the latest diesel internal combustion locomotives produced in China. Persia is short of coal and oil, so naturally it will not
There are cheaper ones. For this railway, 500 kilometers basically takes less than a day. Brusilov wants to rely on the speed of this railway to raid Basra as quickly as possible. Chinese troops and Ottoman troops stationed in Kuwait
Before you react, seize this railway bridgehead connecting the two continents of Asia and Europe.
At the same time, on the Transcaucasus battlefield, four Russian armies also began to attack the Austrian and Polish coalition forces. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
