Struggle in Russia

Dmitry is no stranger to Wallachia. He has heard countless news about Wallachia from the official gazette or Count Rostovtsev, especially recently. After the count returned from Ukraine, his evaluation of the young men in Wallachia went up to a higher level.

But no matter what outsiders say, Wallachia is still quite unfamiliar to Dmitry. Maybe its strategic position is very important to Russia, and maybe some very interesting things happened there, but he doesn’t think he went to Wallachia. What feats can be achieved by leading troops.

Count Rostovtsev did not immediately persuade him, but leaned quietly on the sofa, slowly sipping his tea: "As I said just now, Bulgaria is now a sweet spot, and everyone wants to rush Go up and take a bite, and your competitiveness is not strong. What's more, it is not a sweet pastry, but a deadly trap. If my prediction is not bad, we will encounter a head-on attack from Turkey and the British and French allied forces there! "

Dmitry's heart trembled, and he blurted out in disbelief: "How is this possible!"

Indeed, liberating Bulgaria by force was not a particularly difficult task in the Russian Army General Staff's game. With the fighting power of the Turkish army, the elite Russian army can repel it without a single face-to-face, at least it is not difficult to defeat and surround it head-on.

As Count Rostovtsev said, even if the British and French coalition forces assist the Turks in fighting, it may cause some troubles, but considering that Britain and France are far away from Bulgaria, it is impossible to send heavy troops to the expedition, how useful is the tens of thousands of British and French coalition forces? ?

In Dmitry's view, tens of thousands of people played little role in such a decisive battle involving hundreds of thousands of people. As long as the main opponent of the Russian army is the sick man of Turkey, there is nothing to be afraid of, and victory should not be a big problem.

He believes that the biggest problem for the Russian army is whether the fragile supply line can maintain the depletion of troops. Once the supply fails, it is likely to fall short.

"I seem to have heard that the first railway in Wallachia is expected to open to traffic next year? Also, Grand Duke Constantine is repairing the roads in Moldavia? This should improve the supply situation, right?"

Count Rostovtsev just smiled. He knew what Dmitri meant, but he said that the only thing that could defeat the Russian army was poor logistics and supply capabilities. As for the Tu army or even the Anglo-French coalition forces, it is not worth mentioning at all.

Even this wise young man despises his opponent so much, one can imagine how arrogant and indulgent the head of the Ministry of War and the Army would be. I am afraid that everyone's heart has already flown to how to snatch the victory!

But this is not bad news for Count Rostovtsev. Without giving the Russian machine the heaviest blow, there is no way to pull it out of the abyss. The greater the blow to Russia's military power, the less the conservative militarists will be able to interfere with future changes.

The only regret is that Dmitri was also led astray. He knew that it was necessary to attack conservative military groups, but at the same time he had to support his own military spokesperson, otherwise he would be powerless to interfere in the political situation. Only when one's own voice in the army is loud enough can the Tsar be obedient!

So he patiently said to Dmitry: "Your thinking is too optimistic. Let's talk about the Turks first. It is true that their combat effectiveness is limited, but it is undeniable that their number is still large enough, and this time we are equal to the Bulgarian issue." The guns were aimed at the temples of the Turks, and there was no way they could retreat, and according to what I have learned, there is a very high demand in Turkey to fight us to the end!"

Without waiting for Dmitry to speak, Count Rostovtsev continued: "Once the fanatical religious sentiments of those heretics are stirred up, I believe you must be clear about how terrifying they will become without fear of death!"

"What's more, the Turks don't need to take the initiative to attack. They just need to defend Bulgaria. They can use the bastion and all the defensive facilities to delay our offensive. From the results of previous battles,

If we don't have many ways to contribute to the castle, I'm afraid it's not realistic to annihilate or defeat Turkey in one fell swoop! "

Dmitry's expression became a little serious, because Count Rostovtsev was telling the truth. Judging from the results of the last three Russian-Turkish wars, as long as the Turks shrank back and used bastions or castles, they could make the Russian army In big trouble. Si minus Si

In terms of the existing firepower of the Russian army, it is very difficult to pull out the battle point, otherwise Menshikov would not have been blasted off his little brother during the siege.

From this point of view, once the Turkish army defends and resists stubbornly, no matter how many Russian troops there are, it can only become a war of attrition. To say the least, it is unrealistic to want to capture Bulgaria in one battle. It is very likely that the Russian army will face a bitter battle in Bulgaria! Sacrifice suyingwang.net Sacrifice

And this kind of hard battle won't make much sense even if you win by pile of heads, especially considering that if you have to fight hard all the way, the Russian army will be exhausted before hitting Sophia, and then it will be very dangerous !

"Don't forget about the British and French allied forces," Count Rostovtsev reminded again, "as long as the Turkish army does not collapse in a single battle, they will definitely interfere in this war, whether it is sending a fleet to seize control of the Black Sea or sending an expedition It is not difficult for the army to assist the Turkish army in fighting!"

"And as long as the Turkish army lasts long enough, with their abilities, they can still dispatch more than a hundred thousand people! At that time, what do you think His Majesty will choose?"

Dmitry was still thinking about what to do if the British and French allied forces entered the war. Who would have thought that Count Rostovtsev would suddenly ask him what Nicholas I would choose. This directly asked him to be stunned.

Count Rostovtsev sneered, and asked again: "What do you think His Majesty will do once Britain and France officially declare war on our country and ask us to withdraw from Bulgaria immediately?"

Dmitry stopped talking, because the result is obvious. The pressure from Britain and France is too great. If the Holy Alliance can't fight together, then Russia alone can't stand up to Britain and France. Now the Holy Alliance, okay? , this is a decoration!

Dmitry knew very well that Austria and Prussia were already separated from Russia, and it was impossible for them to be involved in this whirlpool with Russia. It would be a good idea for these two companies to stand on the sidelines, and they might even join in and play the autumn wind with Britain and France.

Once this situation occurs, Nicholas I has no choice but to withdraw from Bulgaria honestly. Mi He Mi
