Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796

Ahmed Pasha did not come to the Turks. After nearly 200,000 Turkish troops arrived in Thrace, he had to split his troops into two groups.

Kamensky Jr. faced the absolute main force of the Turkish army. Although the previous attack was defeated, considering the terrain in central and eastern Bulgaria and the large number of fortresses built in the heart of the Ottoman Empire in Europe, it was indeed not an easy nut to chew.

Most of the flat land along the Danube was controlled by Kamensky Jr. After a period of siege, Rushchuk finally laid down his arms and announced his surrender, but the front from Pleven and other places was all mountain roads, and there were a series of small fortresses and Turkish garrisons behind.

It can be said that after the Russian-Turkish war shifted from the battlefield in southern Ukraine and Crimea to Moldavia and the Danube River Basin, the biggest trouble for the Russian army was probably that once the Turkish army adopted the pig tactics and hid in the fortress, it would take a lot of time.

The victory in Rushchuk was all due to the advice of Solovyov and Clausewitz adopted by Kamensky Jr. In order to achieve the suddenness of the battle, he sent his eldest brother and Langeron to achieve the victory in Rushchuk.

Slobozia, that is, the Turks themselves were weak in strength. When they saw that they were surrounded by the main force of the Russian army, they quickly surrendered smoothly. It was completely different from Vidin and Rushchuk.

Attacking a city with a large number of Orthodox Christians and attacking a fortress full of Turks are two different difficulties. In fact, the latter is more troublesome. After seeing the situation inside the fortress, Kamensky Jr. was also glad that he had succeeded in the sneak attack. If the eldest brother's troops arrived a day later, they might have to besiege this place now. The subsequent attacking troops can only sprinkle toppings on pizza, with each piece having it, but not so much.

In that case, with the Turks' massive fortresses and garbage soldiers, he could no longer hold Rushchuk. After a long time, the Russian army had to retreat because of food depletion.

Actually, what Kutuzov said later was right. In the end, the Turks had to be forced to kill horses and eat horse meat. When the horse meat was eaten up, they should surrender.

Soloviev only knew about the frontal battle from Kamensky's letter. The pile of fortresses behind were indeed not easy.

The breakdown of this war was that he did not restore history here. There were 40,000 more troops and the regularization of the Serbian uprising army.

As for Karageorge's affairs, Soloviev could only arrange them until the end of the year to see if their training could be initially effective in half a year.

After all, it was much easier to transform troops with combat experience than to train serf recruits who knew nothing. Moreover, when the Serbs fought, the last thing they lacked was courage. Those big men who were not afraid of death were indeed high-quality soldiers.

If he could get a volunteer corps to follow him back when he left Serbia, it might be a profit.

But he just thought about it. The main goal now was to compete with the Turks.

After holding a military meeting of the division commander and the regiment commander, his initial plan was agreed by all the people below, who also thought that this was a way to quickly weaken the enemy.

Even Solovyov did not dare to think that a battle here could completely eliminate the enemy.

At this time, it was still necessary to adopt the sausage-cutting tactic and eliminate the enemy section by section.

However, among the scouts he had deployed, only the Belarusian Regiment had reports along the way, and the other Hussar Regiments even used optical communications when reporting.

Using this, without sending sentries, it would definitely not be a big deal, but Solovyov could not believe that every regiment commander below would strictly follow orders.

Bukholden got drunk in Austerlitz, and it cannot be said that it affected the left wing of the coalition forces. As a result, he was also involved, running faster than a rabbit.

But this was not a matter of these places at the moment. Solovyov still sent his adjutant and Christian's adjutant to the front cavalry regiments to inquire about the situation.

He still believed that it would be okay only if someone saw the situation with their own eyes.

Soon, Christian's adjutants came back. The Cossack regiments they went to had nothing to do ahead.

But when they got to the hussars deployed along the Danube, they heard that the Turkish army had reached the other side of the river in Lom and was even preparing to capture the city.

Their regiment commander wanted to ask for instructions. Solovyov actually wanted him to retreat.

"Is this appropriate?"

"Not only should we withdraw the cavalry, but we should also give the pontoon bridge to the enemy. At the same time, we should send someone to row a boat across the river from us and mobilize some infantry from the other side to block the opposite side of the pontoon bridge."

"If we do this, we can prevent the enemy from crossing the river."

"Crossing the Danube is more difficult than crossing the Po River. Karl, pass on the order first. Also, call Arkady, I have something to arrange for him."

The 9th Division led by Arkady was walking on the far right of the team. The terrain along the way was very flat, but there were many obstacles, which led to him having to ask the infantry to work as lumberjacks along the way and use the wood to fill the road.

Fortunately, most of the Russian army were farmers. Regardless of whether they were self-employed farmers or serfs, they were familiar with such tasks as felling trees and shoveling soil.

Now that he knew that Solovyov wanted him to go, he was naturally very happy.

Although Suvorov had many disciples, he still didn't have time to educate his own son, and several of his disciples were often sent abroad. Therefore, his son basically relied on self-study in military theory and courage in fighting. Over the years, the Russian army has produced famous generals who basically relied on self-study.

To have Suvorov as a master, you have to have been in active service before he went to Italy, and you have been able to interact with him for a long time, and you must have talent.

Arkady's talent is obviously average, but compared with his father, who is a thin and dry old man, he is tall and handsome. If this kid didn't live with his father since he was a child, he could still show the same character as his father.

Of course, he didn't learn Suvorov's skills and abstraction, but he did have moral character. There are two other things that are very important. His wife loves him and comes from the Naryshkin family, the mother's family of Peter the Great. The other is that he is very popular in the circle of noble ladies and has good social skills.

Before Solovyov set out, he heard that Durova had been taught by him how to attract girls.

Well, Durova's femininity is getting less and less, no wonder Arkady made a mistake, and a doctor even suggested that she sleep with a girl so that her face would not look healthy and rosy.

There are outrageous things in Petersburg. After Arkady arrived here, he liked to complain the most about his fellow Taoist Mishka, who really didn't give him a chance to fight, and seemed to be too protective of his master's only son and heir.

Now it's finally his turn, and he is also ready to do a big job.

In the pre-war meeting, Solovyov also arranged that the troops on the left and right wings have different responsibilities.

The left wing is naturally blocking the enemy's chopping block, and the two divisions and cavalry on the right wing will attack this time.

Anyone who has read a little bit of books knows that Alexander the Great, the opposite side called Iskander, often likes to do this.

This simple tactic can also add some changes later. In response to the enemy's mobilization, the family must also launch an attack.

When Arkady came to Solovyov, he saw him waiting for him on horseback.

"Misha, why did you change your horse?"

"The horse the emperor gave me is old, so I chose one from its offspring. It's normal, right? You have a good eye and have noticed the details."

"Although they are all white horses, there are subtle differences in their coat colors."

"Observation is very important. If you are on the right wing facing the Turkish flank, what should you do?"

"It's Christian or Uvarov who should cover the front. I and several Cossack cavalry regiments should get behind the enemy and cut off their retreat. When Uvarov squeezes from the flank, I and the grenadiers will "Attack the enemy from the front and back and drive them all into the Danube!"

"That's right. Now this opportunity is very important. The enemy wants to burn our pontoon bridge. We can't let them get too proud. While the enemy's deployment is still relatively loose, this knife must be swung. After destroying the enemy in the front, you have to command the entire division to turn back and buy time for Uvarov's redeployment."

"What if something we don't want happens?"

Seeing this, Solovyov was quite satisfied with Arkady, at least he had considered the bad situation.

"Then the 9th Division will perform the retreat mission to cover Uvarov's retreat, and then you will cover the retreat of the grenadiers, and then withdraw from the battlefield. In this case, it cannot be said that there are no concerns, but we must win this battle, otherwise, even if Alexander Vasilyevich is my mentor, I will also change someone else. "

The error-free version is reading! 6=9+Shu_Bar first published this novel.

Fortunately, he speaks Russian now, otherwise, I am afraid that his accent will change.

For example, "Cut the enemy's crops with flower lines".

"Misha, don't worry about this. I also know that you are worried about my future, not just you."

Arkady said so, and Solovyov looked at him. He always had to trust him. The young eagle also had to take off. Even Arkady had a higher starting point than himself, but he had less experience on the battlefield.

At this time, he had to let him go. It was okay for Uvarov to be a link between the two divisions, but Solovyov was not at ease if he was asked to take the main task.

Therefore, his headquarters was not with the grenadiers.

The six grenadier regiments led by Christian accounted for more than 40% of the Russian grenadier regiments at this time. They were the essence of the Russian army outside the Guards. He was also Elena's brother-in-law. This kind of royal family status, plus he was assigned to the Moscow Grenadier Regiment, his ability was always recognized.

Otherwise, he could not have played almost the entire game in the Napoleonic Wars and was wounded in several battles but did not leave the front line.

Compared with Alexander's cousin, Eugen of Württemberg, who has some command talent, knows how to use his brain, and is an expert in division-level operations, Christian's main advantage is that he is determined, brave in battle, and often in the most dangerous areas.

Well, if there is a chance to command these royal relatives, Solovyov also knows how to arrange them, and this combination is already like this.

Fortunately, all three of them have a close relationship with him, so it is very convenient to command.

But after the war, anything can happen, and he also issued the mission objectives to Christian.

After Arkady left, Solovyov was still looking at the map. He had already explained before that he wanted to seize that piece of land.

If you want to see the contour lines, Arkady also has to go around from the east side of a high ground. This is the source of a small river. After the Turkish front entered the battlefield, Uvarov and Arkady were on the other side of the small river.

Christian's division is enough to stop the Turkish army in the front, but it is difficult to widen the front line. The Turkish army is probably unlikely to go around. For the Turkish army, if they want them to fight flexibly on the battlefield, they may have to single out the cavalry, and most of the infantry is still not good enough.

After this period of deployment, Solovyov has completed the final plan, and he can still fight a big battle now.

But he is still worried about the situation of the outpost battle.

When he was the vanguard, he raided the Polish army's camp.

Now there is a problem in the outpost battle with the Turkish army. For the Russian army, this time the opponent has the advantage.

The trouble is here, and he can only grit his teeth.

The first move was given to the other side, and it was also because the ferry on the south side of the pontoon bridge was not given up. This battle was unlikely to let the Turkish army enter his pocket.

If he knew that Ahmed Pasha, a commander with some experience, did not come, but only sent a Greek Pasha to lead the team, he would be grateful.

In the current situation, he still had to observe the enemy's movements.

"There is a report, it seems that the front troops and the enemy have exchanged fire."

Clausewitz pointed to the other side of the stream, and Solovyov could not see clearly in the telescope, after all, the distance was too far.

However, the Russian signalman was very responsible. In addition to sending optical signals, the hunters in front were also releasing smoke signals.

If you have seen Tom and Jerry, you probably know that Jerry brought two Indian little gray mice, and they used smoke to sound the alarm.

This level can be said to be the black technology of primitive society, and it is still useful at this level of communication.

"Very good, now we need the hunters to fight the enemy, lure the enemy deep, let them pass quickly, come here"

But not so fast, the Turkish marching column is very long, when Arkady's adjutant arrived here, Solovyov knew that the enemy at the end was still dragging in the city of Lom, how many enemies there were here, because the team was sparse, such a long marching column was not evenly distributed, it was difficult to estimate the number of enemies.

But since they are all here, the enemy is not well organized, so naturally we can fight.

The dice, always have to be thrown. (End of this chapter)
