Chapter 1580: Surrender (ask for a monthly ticket)

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  In the city of Josephgrad, the sound of explosions was ringing out one after another. This is the German artillery deployed outside the city responding to the fire support of the infantry inside the city. After Joseph fled to Moscow, the German army stepped up its attack on the Russian army in Moscow and Josephgrad.

  A large number of German troops and servants, with the help of artillery and air support, continuously conquered the positions of the Russian troops and wiped out those Russian troops.

  Even if the strength of the German Army Group D and Army Group E that attacked Josephgrad is far inferior to that of the German Army Group A, Army Group B, and Army Group C that attacked Moscow. However, under the fierce attack of the German army and the servant army, Josephgrad was still occupied by the German army bit by bit. Especially after Volzhasky fell into the hands of the German army, Josephgrad became completely surrounded. Since then, they have never received any supplies.

  After the news of Joseph's death came, the defenders of Joseph Grene became even more nervous. Many people don't know what to do. If you continue to resist, it seems that there is no point. Even some generals of the Russian army showed aversion to war. Especially those political workers, Joseph was their backer before. It is precisely because of Joseph as a backer that even if they don't know how to lead troops to fight, they still show off their might in the army. But now, after learning of Joseph's death, those political workers have restrained themselves a lot. They also knew very well that without Joseph's support, they would have no way of confronting those military chiefs. No matter how arrogant and domineering he is, if he offends those military officials, he will definitely not have any good fruit for them, and he will even lose his life.

   In addition to the Josephgrad Front Army, there are also the remnants of the Russian Southern Front Army stationed in Josephgrad, with a total strength of more than two million people. However, under the fierce attack of the German Army Group D and Army Group E, a lot has been lost. The remaining troops were also compressed in the city of Josephgrad. As their positions were gradually captured by the German army, it is not impossible for the entire Russian army in Josephgrad to be eaten by the German army.

  General Popov, Commander of the Russian Army's Josephgrad Front, Lieutenant General Krementyev, Political Commissar, and Major General Gusev, Chief of Staff, are in the underground headquarters, frowning.

  Especially Lieutenant General Krementyev, who looked like a dead old lady. In the past, he was very arrogant in the Josephgrad Front Army, and sometimes he didn't even give Admiral Popov face. But now, it's a lot more honest.

   Admiral Popov is undoubtedly very happy about Lieutenant General Krementyev's transformation. Only in this way can he fully control the Russian army stationed in Josephgrad. It's just that the current situation is very unfavorable to them. Even if they control the army, it doesn't seem to be meaningful. After all, it won't be long before they are all wiped out by the German army.

"Comrade Commander, the German offensive has once again intensified. Our troops were affected by Comrade Joseph's death, and the will to resist is no longer as firm as before. This caused our troops to suffer great losses during the battle." Gu Xie Major General Husband said.

   Admiral Popov nodded, this is also what he is having a headache.

   "The Germans are now determined to speed up the process of the war. Under their fierce attack, we may not last long." Admiral Popov said.

   "Comrade Commander, what should we do now?" Lieutenant General Krementyev asked.

   Admiral Popov also had no idea. But there is one thing, he doesn't want to die. He believed that among the Russian defenders in Josephgrad, like him, many people did not want to die.

   "Comrade Commander, the German envoy has arrived. How about we meet him?" Major General Gusev said.

   Lieutenant General Krementyev immediately wanted to reprimand when he heard this. However, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He suddenly realized that it was not as good as before. Joseph was no longer there, and the status of these political workers in the army had undergone earth-shaking changes. What's more, Admiral Popov obviously knew about it. If you speak rashly, you may offend Admiral Popov. In addition, Lieutenant General Krementyev himself did not want to die.

  Popov looked at Lieutenant General Krementyev, and then said: "Comrade Gusev, you can arrange it. See what the Germans want to do."

   "Okay, Comrade Commander." Major General Gusev nodded, and a look of joy flashed in his eyes.

   Of course in the evening, General Popov, Lieutenant General Krementyev and Major General Gusev secretly met with an envoy sent by Marshal Brauchitsch, commander of the German Army Group D.

"Three generals, we have won the current war. Joseph, the supreme leader of your country, has committed suicide. It can be seen that this war has been lost for Russia. If you continue to fight, it will only Let Russia pay more casualties. Therefore, His Excellency Marshal Brauchitsch hopes that your army will surrender. We guarantee that the lives of all Russian officers and soldiers who surrender will be guaranteed. Moreover, the generals of the Russian army will receive Due treatment. After the war is over, Germany will release all prisoners of war and let everyone be free. In addition, you will definitely have a place in the new Russian government in the future." The German envoy said.

  Major General Gusev is undoubtedly very moved by Germany's promise. It's just that he is only the chief of staff of the Josephgrad Front Army and has no power to make decisions.

  Popov nodded and looked at Lieutenant General Krementiev: "Comrade Comrade, what do you think?"

   "Comrade Commander, it's up to you to make the decision." Lieutenant General Krementyev said. He knew that everything had already been settled, and if he struggled again, he would only risk his own life.

   "Your Excellency, can we trust the assurance of your Marshal?" Admiral Popov asked.

   "Of course, Your Excellency General. His Majesty the Emperor has also agreed to these conditions proposed to you." The German envoy said.

   Hearing that even the Kaiser had expressed his opinion, Admiral Popov and others were relieved. Although the two sides are in a state of hostility, this does not prevent them from believing in Kaiser Qin Tian. After all, as the emperor of the most powerful empire in the world, Kaiser Qin Tian is still very reputable.

   "Okay, Your Excellency the Messenger, please tell your Excellency Marshal Brauchitsch that I, on behalf of the soldiers of the Josephgrad Front Army, surrender to the German army!" Admiral Popov finally made a decision.
