Rasputin of the East
Chapter 50
50
– Bang bang!
The sound of someone knocking on the door was heard.
It was a bright day, seeing the sunlight shining and birds chirping in the distance.
But what can I say, I’m tired.
– Bang bang bang!
At this point, the average person will get up and try to figure out what’s going on, even if he’s annoyed.
I’m no ordinary person, let me sleep.
“dismissal! dismissal!”
“Oh, little!”
The moment I woke up screaming, my body stiffened.
There was something inside the blanket.
“………..uh?”
In an instant, goosebumps erupted.
Now that I see it, my outfit is…
“Wait a minute!”
I just threw myself away.
I can assure you, it is clear that I recovered at a faster rate than when I was in high school with 10 minutes left before I woke up late.
The moment the locked door was opened, what was standing outside the door, the chief of staff with a poor complexion.
“Chief of Staff Kim In-su, what is this from the morning?”
“sorry. Your Majesty. But it is urgent news!”
“Something?”
“There are three things. First, the offensive on the northern front began, the German army suddenly appeared in the northern part of the country on a large scale, and the northern front, which was not prepared at all, was defeated. It is said that they have already retreated more than a dozen kilometers!”
“…… What? when?”
“It’s this morning.”
“Ugh, damn it.”
I tried my best to stay sane while the hangover from yesterday’s rolled up Jackcock (American whiskey, Jack Daniel’s cocktail) gave me a headache.
“What is the second one? Tell me this is some good news.”
“There were naval battles between Britain, France and Germany. Two divisions of the German Maritime Battalion (Marines) attempted to land near London.”
“Wait, London?”
“Yes.”
I wondered what the hell this was, but I kept getting reports.
“therefore?”
“The British fleet suffered massive damage. The French Navy suffered damage equivalent to annihilation, and the Ocean Fleet does not appear to be in much different condition. The amphibious operation… was partially successful.”
“Wait, what? Was the landing successful?”
“If only one battalion survived after putting in two divisions, it is a success. It seems that it is right to form a bridgehead once.”
“Which side is the current naval power? Germany?”
“Once we contacted the legation, there are still three German Navy battlecruisers in the estuary of the Thames. The Germans have established a beachhead on Canby Island at the estuary of the River Thames and are supported by several monitor ships.”
“In order for the British Mediterranean fleet to return…”
“At least two weeks.”
“In two weeks, the French fleet was also destroyed?”
“Yes.”
In fact, the Brittany class has not yet been commissioned, and the Courbet class is a problem for a Dreadnought class, and the Dantong class is the latest version, but it is an all-noon class.
The problem is that the British navy has collapsed.
All Queen Elizabeth-class battlecruisers and battlecruisers are gone, but it’s not the only battleship in Britain. How did they get that shape?
“But when the Queen Elizabeth class returns, it’s over.”
In the German Empire, there is not a single warship capable of fighting the Queen Elizabeth class. If the Bayern-class was commissioned, I would attach it, even if it was insufficient, but the Bayern-class was not commissioned.
You never know which u-boat can catch the luck of a lifetime. The Kaiser Marine cannot sink the Queen Elizabeth-class by any means other than mines or submarines.

Moreover, the British navy still overwhelms the German navy. No, he would have been able to overwhelm the entire navy of the negotiating country alone.
The only problem is that the power is distributed everywhere, but now that this is the case, the UK will be trying to rake in all the power available.
“Once you know that, what about the last?”
“The Tsar took the express train. You went straight to Moscow.”
“Because of the Northern Front?”
“No, the British and French ministers urgently requested an audience with His Majesty regarding the naval battle. I guess that’s why.”
“Hmm… wait, this isn’t news? Why did you tell me now?”
“The news of the offensive on the northern front is just now, but the news of the naval battle didn’t happen right away on our side, so what’s the point of waking you up…”
“Okay, I’ll be leaving soon, so gather the staff and call up all the commanders of each battalion at the division commander level or higher, prepare the troops for movement, haven’t there been any special orders from Stavka?”
“There is not.”
“Let’s go see.”
After the chief of staff disappeared, I looked at myself and traced my memory, remembering where I was. At least for me, it was a matter as important as the fact of the Northern Front offensive.
So… here…
‘One of the rooms in the harem building of Dolmabahce Palace.’
It was then that I remembered what had happened yesterday.
After the sacraments at Sofia Cathedral, it was time to go on a pedigree.
I conferred the Order of St Andrew on Nicholas II, and at the same time Nicholas II awarded me the rank of Marshal and Marshal’s baton.
Then there was a ball, and there was a party to celebrate the victory in Dolmabahce Palace.
Fortunately, there was no prom. Of course, if there is a prom, it is only full of boys, but it will be difficult to match the number of girls.
I drank a lot there… and then…
“……Oh, damn it.”
I’ve been thinking It is also in full natural color, so vivid.
Seriously, seriously, as soon as I thought that something had happened, a cold sweat ran down my back.
“excuse me.”
“……”
“Hey, you should wake up now……”
“……”
“Now you have to get up.”
I couldn’t clearly confirm with my own two eyes the certainty, not the certainty, because the world was holding on under a blanket as if it wouldn’t happen on either side.
“……I have a meeting so I have to stop and go, everyone will be waiting.”
***
Saint Petersburg, Russian Empire.
“His Majesty! What does that mean!”
“I said it would be better to quit.”
Yusupov, enraged at Archduke Dmitry’s words, shouted.
“Are you going to come and get me out now?”
“My bum, what nonsense, I was just concerned about the honor of my family.”
“What…”
“The Count of Vostok has already proven himself, the restorer of Constantinople, the Ottoman conqueror, etc.”
“So, that’s why you’re missing out?”
“Honestly, isn’t this enough?”
It was sincere.
The reason Archduke Dmitry had intervened here in the first place was because he feared that his cousins would damage the reputation of the family.
A few victories could be dismissed as luck or chance.
But in Constantinople, the ‘city of longing’ was a different story. very different
If he did it, wouldn’t it be said that he deserves it?
“Now is the time to admit it. He is the hero our father has bestowed upon us for us, otherwise how can we explain all these achievements.”
“Is that your decision?”
“Yeah, but you stop acknowledging him too.”
“……From the moment I first saw him, I didn’t like him.”
“It has nothing to do with how much he will benefit your personal ho and the Empire.”
In fact, if I had heard of it, I would have snorted, asking who I thought I liked.
Simply put, the two just didn’t match. There are people who are opposites from one to ten.
There are parts that are similar and there are parts that are different, but all of those parts are a reason to hate each other.
Those two were just that. As soon as Stolipin ran into each other, he struggled to mediate the two storms in Siberia, but to no avail.
In any case, Archduke Dmitry declared so.
“I can’t find any more reason to stop him.”
If he had accomplished that, at least one of his cousins thought it might be okay to marry him.
“I still hate him.”
I couldn’t like it.
“Even so, it would be hard to deny that he was necessary for the Empire. Cool down, think slowly, and you’ll admit I’m right.”
***
Constantinople, Topkapi Palace, Temporary Headquarters of the Interior Forces.
“The situation is worse than expected. Only then will it make any sense to go back to Warsaw.”
“Isn’t it better to go to Ankara, get a surrender document from the Sultan and join the Southern Front?”
“The Northern Front’s initial response to the offensive was … to be honest, it was too much of a headshot. I think Warsaw should be seen as collapsing.”
“How far back should I go?”
“Once we have to give up the East Prussian campaign, there is a good chance we will also lose Warsaw.”
The previously anticipated plan was to encircle the two flanks of the troops from East Prussia and those who started the offensive from the northern front.
“I heard that the Slovak forces are moving, can the Southern Front force stop it?”
“Fatigue has already accumulated in the Southern Front. Most of the forces are demanding a total reorganization, but it is unreasonable to stop the Slovak Army.”
“It is highly likely that the plan is to annihilate the allies from the Viswa River and launch a large-scale offensive from the Slovakia area by driving their forces as they are. Then the objective of the operation is…”
“There is a possibility that it will be Warsaw in the first place and Brest in the second.”
All modern Polish territory was lost.
“Crazy, what about the Balkans?”
“The only concern is Bulgaria.”
“Should I hand over Edirne and ask her to join the war?”
“For now, the defense of the Warsaw-Tarnov axis is not a line we can intervene. No matter how fast you move, it is too late to intervene in combat. It would be nice if we didn’t get pushed to that point, but the first thing to do is to plan for the defense of Brest assuming that the Warsaw-Tarnov axis is breached.”
“I know that… damn, Stavka give us the right strategic goals. I don’t think you’re going to leave me alone in Constantinople.”
The fact that we are not a unit belonging to a specific army, such as the Northern Front or Southern Front, became a troublesome part again.
It is an advantage to be able to go from north to south as needed, but at the same time, it can suffer from the problem of priority between the south and the north.
“It is the North that is urgently needed, but stabilization of the Balkans is also an important issue. Once the Southern Front Army maintains its position, it is necessary to effectively press the dual empire…”
“The Dual Empire can’t afford to fight any more! The only significant enemy right now is Germany! We must immediately support the Northern Front…”
“Let’s say we are supporting, the Southern Front has all the coordination and liaison officers dispatched in case of emergencies. Does the Northern Front have any such contact network? You don’t have to shoot at each other, but you can’t fight properly. Remember, we are field-sized, and we have fewer troops that we can deploy quickly!”
“First of all, how should we go about finishing the Ottomans?”
“First, we have to end this campaign. The scale of the offensive on the northern front might not be that big in the first place, but wouldn’t it still be able to stop it to some extent? You talked about Brest earlier, and you said it would be difficult to intervene before Brest is pushed, but I hope we lose Warsaw. There must have been quite a few casualties on the Southern Front.”
“There’s no way we can’t do that unless we’re going to be bullied as a group… What do you mean?”
“That’s right. Iraq, Armenia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Trabzon, Izmir, Anatolia, etc. Right now, there are a lot of troublesome parts here.”
