Jagged Germany

Chapter 294: Admiral commits suicide (ask for monthly ticket)

??Warsaw, the headquarters of the Northwest Front of the Russian Army.

?? It's just that there is no difference between the current Russian Northwest Front Army and its existence in name only. First, the Russian 2nd Army was nearly wiped out, and the 1st Army surrendered. Now, the Russian Guards 2nd Army and 9th Army have been wiped out once again. This also made the troops under the Russian Northwest Front Army, except for some remnants of the 2nd Army, no other troops.

??Originally, General Ivan Jilinsky, the commander of the Russian Northwest Front Army, pinned his hopes on the Russian Army's 2nd Guards Army and 9th Army. Although he knew that these two armies might still not be the opponents of the Germans. But if the 400,000 people of these two armies can reach Warsaw and garrison Warsaw, it will be enough to make Warsaw a strong fortress. No matter how strong the Germans are, it is impossible to capture Warsaw in a very short period of time. In this case, they can at least persist until the Russian Army completes its general mobilization. At that time, you can get the support of a steady stream of reinforcements. The Russian army will be able to defeat the German army in the way they are best at.

?? It's just that the reality and his expectations are often the opposite. General Ivan Jilinski ordered the Russian Guards 2nd Front Army and 9th Army to rescue Warsaw, which resulted in the two armies being attacked by the German army. Although, the combat effectiveness of these two armies is not weak. However, under the powerful attack of the German army, the final result is still doomed.

?? When the news that the Russian Guards 2nd Army and 9th Army were successively wiped out by the German 8th Army came to Warsaw, Admiral Ivan Jilinski was completely killed.

"God! How is this possible? How could the Germans be so powerful? The 2nd Guards Army is the most powerful army in the Russian Army! There is no reason for them to be wiped out so easily by the Germans!" Admiral Ivan Jilinski was obviously unwilling to accept such a result.

?? But, facts are facts. Even if Admiral Ivan Jilinsky does not accept it, there is no way to change it.

??The successive destruction of the Russian Guards 2nd Army and 9th Army made the situation in Warsaw even more tense and dangerous. All fools know that after the Germans eat the two armies, they will definitely attack Warsaw. This is beyond doubt. However, with less than 20,000 troops in the city of Warsaw, it is simply a dream to fight against the wolf-like German army!

?? Neither General Ivan Jilinsky nor General Samsonov, commander of the Russian Second Army, believed that the Russian army had such combat effectiveness. If the fighting power of the Russian army was really so strong, they would not be defeated by the German army so easily.

?? "General, what should we do now? The German offensive will definitely start soon." Admiral Samsonov was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"What can I do? The Germans, with one legion, less than 200,000 troops, successively ate up our four group armies, with nearly 900,000 people. What can I do with them with such a powerful fighting force? What about it?" Admiral Ivan Jilinsky said in frustration.

"General, why don't we break through the siege. The Germans only deployed a few thousand people outside Warsaw. We still have nearly 20,000 people. If we break through, we will be able to succeed." Admiral Samsonov suggested road.

"Breakout? Can it really be successful? The thousands of Germans are enough to stop tens of thousands of us. Besides, even if we successfully break out from Warsaw, where can we go? The entire Kingdom of Poland is The German army. To the west and north is the mainland of Germany, and to the south is the Austro-Hungarian Empire." General Ivan Jilinsky said.

??Admiral Samsonov immediately fell silent. He also knew that, as Admiral Ivan Jilinski said, even if they managed to break out of Warsaw, they were still surrounded by the German army. It was impossible for them to escape safely under the siege of the German army. Rather than being chased by the Germans and running around like a dog, it is better to stick to Warsaw. In this case, it may be able to persist for a longer time.

?? "General, do we have to stick to Warsaw?" Admiral Samsonov seemed a little unwilling. If you stick to Warsaw, you will definitely not end well in the end. He didn't want to die like this!

?? "Let's do this for the time being. Let's think about it. Is there any other way?" Admiral Ivan Jilinsky sighed.

?? "Okay, General." Admiral Samsonov nodded.

?? "This time, I guess it's really dead!" Admiral Ivan Jilinsky sighed.

?? After Admiral Samsonov left, he thought a lot.

??He once served as the chief of staff of the Russian army, and undoubtedly still has great prestige among the Russian army. Originally, he thought that he could use this war to gain more military merits and be promoted to marshal in one fell swoop. But he didn't expect that this battle would not be as easy as he expected. The Northwest Front Army had a total of more than 500,000 troops. Under the attack of less than 200,000 German troops, the entire army was almost wiped out. This also cut off his promotion as a marshal.

?? When the 2nd Guards Army and the 9th Army came to support him, he also thought about making a comeback. However, he did not expect that it was precisely because of his command that these two armies were buried, which further increased the losses of the Russian army in this war.

??General Ivan Jilinsky also knew that under such circumstances, he was probably doomed. Staying in Warsaw, once the city is broken, unless he surrenders to the German army, he will undoubtedly die. Even if there is a chance to escape back to Russia, it is estimated that he will die in the end. For the chief culprit who caused Russia to lose nearly a million dollars, Tsar Nicholas II would probably even have the heart to tear him alive!

??So, no matter how you look at it, Admiral Ivan Jilinsky is dead this time.

"Oh! I can't surrender to the Germans like that Reinenkamp guy. My family is in Russia. Since I'm always going to die, I'll do it myself. Life! No matter what, I cannot die at the hands of the Germans." Admiral Ivan Jilinsky thought secretly. He has also made up his mind and wants to end his life.

??General Ivan Jilinsky took out a glass bottle from the drawer of his desk. Inside was a small white pill. With the vodka, Admiral Ivan Jilinsky swallowed the small white pill in one gulp.

?? Soon, severe pain came from the abdomen, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Admiral Ivan Jilinsky's mouth.
