When the body of Admiral Ivan Jilinsky was discovered, it was already that night. The adjutant went to tell Admiral Ivan Jilinsky that dinner was ready. However, it was discovered that the door of the office had been locked.


    When no one answered the knock on the door, the adjutant found a spare key and opened the door to the office. Only then did he realize that Admiral Ivan Jilinsky was lying on his desk, and the blood that flowed from his mouth had turned ck.


    Admiral Ivan Jilinskimitted suicide, which caused an uproar among the Russian troops in Warsaw. Originally, the sessive destruction of the Russian Guards 2nd Army and 9th Army had already terrified them. Now, even General Ivan Jilinski, the suprememander, hasmitted suicide. This undoubtedly shows that it is impossible to resist the German attack in Warsaw. As a result, the entire city of Warsaw became panic-stricken. Some troops even deserted.


    "What should I do? What should I do now? That guy Jilinskymitted suicide, and now all the pressure is on my head." General Samsonov, anxious like an ant on a hot pot Same.


    When Admiral Ivan Jilinsky was still there, he was the first in everything. Now that Admiral Ivan Jilinsky is gone, he will naturally have to take over. This is undoubtedly a great pressure for Admiral Samsonov.


    "The Germans areing soon. It is obviously impossible to fight the Germans. How can we resist the Germans? If we don''t fight, what can we do? We can''t escape." Sa Admiral Msonov turned around in a hurry.


    "How about surrendering to the Germans like that guy in Leiningkamp? If it doesn''t work, at least you can save your own life." Admiral Samsonov suddenly had such an idea in his mind.


    "No, I am a soldier of the Russian Empire and a loyal general of His Majesty the Tsar. How can I join the Germans like that German in Leiningkamp?" Samsonov immediately denied that idea automatically.


    However, the desire to survive is like a weed, constantly growing in his heart.


    Two dayster, the 8th Armored Division and the 24th Infantry Division of the German Army arrived in Warsaw, and set up a posture tounch an attack on Warsaw. The dark tanks and the cannons all reminded the Russian defenders inside the city that the German troops outside the city were not easy to deal with. If they fail, they will all die here.


    General Samsonov was also shocked. He knew very well that if the fight continued, there was really only a dead end. This also made the idea in his heart more firm.


    So, a funny scene appeared. When the German 8th Armored Division and 24th Infantry Division were preparing to attack Warsaw. General Samsonov,mander of the Russian 2nd Army, took the initiative to lead the remnants of the 2nd Army to surrender to the Germans. This left Major General Besen and Colonel Guderian stunned. But at the same time, very happy. The Russians voluntarily surrendered, so they didn''t have to attack. Of course, this also avoided casualties.


    Although, there are not many Russian troops in Warsaw, the equipment is also very simple, and thebat effectiveness is also very bad. But if they concentrate on defense, the German army will inevitably suffer a lot of casualties in urban street fighting. The Russians'' voluntary surrender is undoubtedly a great thing.


    So, after consulting the headquarters, Major General Besen and Colonel Guderian epted the surrender of General Samsonov.


    They assured General Samsonov that the safety of the lives and property of the Russian army would be guaranteed. Of course, this refers primarily to officers. Ordinary soldiers, I''m afraid they don''t have this kind of treatment. You know, the German army captured so many prisoners of war, Qin Tian wanted to use them to do coolies. Otherwise, how could it be possible to build arge-scale construction project in the Kingdom of Pnd to ensure the effective German upation of thisnd?


    The Russian defenders in Warsaw voluntarily surrendered, bringing the Polish campaign to a sessful conclusion. After a big battle, the German 8th Army wiped out the Russian 2nd Guards Army and the 9th Army at a small cost, realizingplete control of the Kingdom of Pnd. Next, it is time to implement the third step of the Eastern Front battle n, that is, to cooperate with the Austro-Hungarian Army to defeat the Russian Southwest Front Army and defeat the Russian Army in one fell swoop.


    If you can take this opportunity to trigger civil strife in Russia, it would be great. Even if it fails, the Russian army, which has suffered heavy losses, may no longer be able to pose a threat to Germany for a long time toe. The Eastern Front, at least temporarily stable, can buy Germany a lot of time. Especially when the German army failed to win the Battle of the Marne, the stability of the Eastern Front was very important to Germany.


    "Your Highness, after Warsaw is captured, the Legion needs to rest for a period of time. Only then can the third step of thebat n be implemented, which is to unite with the Austro-Hungarian Empire and fight against the Russian Southwest Front." Major General Ludendorff said.


    Qin Tian nodded. In the past period of battle, although the casualties of the 8th Army were notrge, the loss of weapons and equipment and the consumption of ammunition were quite a lot. In addition, the soldiers are also very tired, and they really need to take a good rest.


    In addition, the joint Austro-Hungarian Army also needs tomunicate, which is not taken for granted. If there is no cooperation, it will go wrong. If there is a mistake and they suffer a defeat on the Eastern Front, the consequences will be serious.


    "During this period of time, let''s take a rest for the troops. After the rest is over and the Austro-Hungarian Empire has been in contact with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, we willunch a battle against the Russian Southwest Front Army. Try to defeat the Russian Southwest Front Army before the cold winter. Our absolute advantage on the Eastern Front." Qin Tian said.


    "Yes, Your Highness." Admiral Hindenburg and Major General Ludendorff were full of confidence in this point.


    "I n to return to Berlin tomorrow. On the one hand, I will dismiss my post to Your Majesty and introduce the situation on the Eastern Front. On the other hand, I will urge the General Staff to fight jointly with the Austro-Hungarian Empire." Qin Tian said.


    Of course, there was another reason, which he didn''t say. However, he believed that Admiral Hindenburg and Major General Ludendorff also knew about it. That is to find a way to pull Xiao Maoqi from the position of chief of staff.


    The Battle of the Marne River did not achieve the expected results, which undoubtedly shows that Moltke''s modification of the Schlieffen n was wrong. This, then, is a perfect opportunity to oust him. Now that Xiao Maoqi has be Qin Tian''s enemy, Qin Tian naturally will not let this opportunity pass by.
