In just a few days, Moscow has been built into a fortified fortress by the military and civilians in the city. In order to survive, they desperately strengthened the fortifications of Moscow.

All the houses inside and outside the city were demolished, and the trees in the woods on the outskirts of the city were cut down. The stones and logs that had been dismantled were piled up on the city walls, and the gates were welded to death with molten iron, and the holes in the gates were filled with dirt bags and stones, and the city was full of all kinds of horses.

On the walls of the city were cauldrons of dry wood piled underneath, which would pour boiling water, boiling tar, and boiling oil on the Tatars beneath the city when the Tatars attacked the city.

The Russians also mobilized a large number of Moscow citizens, dug trenches in many places outside the city walls, and introduced the water of the Moskva River. Numerous ships were scuttled and sunk in the course of the Moscow River, blocking the waterway into Moscow.

Before the arrival of the Tatars, the Russians almost collected all the grain, cloth, wood, stones and other materials in and around Moscow, as well as all kinds of bronze, tin, and iron tools, and then transported them back to Moscow and hoarded them, and burned them or buried them and hid them.

The Russians, who have the blood of a fighting nation, can be said to do whatever it takes to hold Moscow. Such a strong city defense, at least in this era, is absolutely impregnable.

Tsar Mikhail. Romanov ordered to open all the weapons depots in Moscow and distribute them to the citizens of Moscow.

Handmade weapon workshops and molten iron furnaces are busy day and night, producing arquebuses, cannons, projectiles, arrowheads, spears, armor and shields. Armed with many militia and young citizens who participated in the defense of the city.

Even so, because there were so many Moscow citizens involved in the defense of the city, their weapons were varied. There are kitchen knives, wooden forks, and axes, and they are messy anyway, and some people even find a sharpened wooden stick as their weapon.

Hundreds of thousands of citizens in Moscow, plus the nobles, landlords, merchants, and a large number of peasants who fled from all over the country, have now gathered more than one million people in Moscow, and nearly 300,000 Russian troops and militiamen have participated in the defense of the city.

Of course, the regular army together is less than 10,000 people. There were more than 10,000 private troops and Cossacks of the local aristocracy, and most of the rest were made up of burghers from Moscow, including merchants, craftsmen, and fleeing peasants from nearby areas.

Tsar Mikhail. Romanov and Crown Prince Alexei. Mikhailovich. Almost every day, he went to the front line to inspect in person, and he also helped to work with the citizens of Moscow, although he didn't do anything, but after all, he was the Tsar and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The citizens of Moscow were moved to tears.

Early in the morning. The silence on the outskirts of Moscow was like a precursor to an impending storm.

The Tatars outside the city have been moving frequently these days, and they are keenly aware that the Tatar offensive is in these few days. In particular, this morning was eerily quiet, which made the military and civilians in Moscow feel unusually depressed.

Tsar Mikhail. The Romanovs and the high-ranking Russian nobles all got up early and gathered on the walls of the Kremlin, looking out of the city with solemn faces.

The Siberian Corps outside the city at this time. All assault forces have already moved into offensive starting positions. After several days of active preparations, the time was ripe for the assault on the city of Moscow.

Sparrow Hill in the southwestern part of Moscow. Several high-ranking members of the Far Eastern Army and military officers of various ministries gathered here.

Gao Jianguo looked at Moscow in the distance with a telescope and said with a smile: "Hehe...... It's only been a few days, and Moscow's city defense has actually made them look like this, if they were replaced by someone else, they really couldn't capture Moscow. ”

"Paralyzed, they demolished all the houses inside and outside Moscow, these old hairy people can't do it. To say that the fighting nation is really ruthless, this is the rhythm of fighting with our Far East! ”

Everyone laughed out loud when they heard Song Tao's words.

Li Ming put down the binoculars and said in a deep voice: "A history of Russia is a history of continuous colonization and territorial expansion, they have developed from a remote and barbaric place to a huge empire spanning three continents, behind the glory and light of conquest, but our nation has endless humiliation and blood and tears.

No matter what the cost, we, the Far Eastern Army, will wipe Russia off the map. In the future, the steppes of Eastern Europe will become the pastures of our Mongolian nomadic detachments in the Far East, and countless iron horsemen from our Far East will gallop across this vast land and continue to attack Europe. We want to destroy the white-skinned Western civilization and send them back to the Stone Age! ”

Gao Jianguo listened to Li Ming's words, nodded with a smile, and then turned to Wang Yaowu, the commander of the Siberian Corps, and said, "You guys go and prepare, before dark today, if you can't take Moscow, you won't come back to see me." ”

Wang Yaowu smiled and said: "Commander, if we can't take Moscow before dark, all our officers and soldiers in Siberia will strip off their clothes and run around Moscow to run around Moscow collectively naked. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard him.

Gao Jianguo scolded with a smile: "Get out, don't say pretty things, I don't care what method you use, I just want Moscow!" ”

With Wang Yaowu's order, the various assault units of the Siberian Corps of the Far Eastern Army began to move under the city of Moscow, and the officers and men of the various artillery positions also began to uncover their gun coats, and the guns showed their hideous muzzles. The airship units, which had been waiting in the nearby airspace for a long time, also began to sail towards Moscow in an overwhelming manner.

After the units of the Siberian Corps of the Far Eastern Army began to move, the soldiers and civilians in Moscow also became nervous, and the bells rang continuously, and the city was suddenly in chaos.

Tsar Mikhail. Seeing the situation inside the city, Romanov again appeared on the front line of the city and shouted hoarsely at the soldiers and civilians involved in the defense of Moscow.

"All the fighters defending Moscow are my Mikhail's brothers, the Tatar army is just outside the city, they are going to erase Moscow, they are going to burn our cities and churches, they are going to plunder our grain, they are going to take away our wives and daughters. Let's stand up bravely! Fight for the land of your hometown, for our family and women, and for your own honor at the expense of bloodshed! ”

Tsar Mikhail. The Romanov's voice continued to echo in Moscow, and all the soldiers and civilians involved in the defense of Moscow responded in unison.

"Ulla...... Ula ......"

At first, the soldiers and civilians defending the city shouted in unison, and finally the citizens of the entire Moscow shouted loudly, and the impassioned and high-pitched voices resounded in the sky.

Now the whole of Moscow can be said to be united, united, morale is high, and everyone has the courage and determination to fight to the death against the Tatars. (To be continued.) )
