May 17, 1796, eastern suburbs of Mosk.

The Guards and Army units of the Russian Empire, led by Grand Duke Nicholas, began to line up troops in preparation for the next battle.

Similarly, the troops under Grand Duke Mikhail began to prepare for battle.

Three days, although not enough, was enough for Grand Duke Mikhail's troops to build the proposed fortifications.

The soldiers dug trenches with sapper shovels, and several trenches were connected by communication trenches. Machine gun fire points and artillery positions were rebuilt. Then a barbed wire fence was drawn in front of the position and mines were laid. This is already a proposed fortification.

At least in this era, this is already a very advanced defense system.

After all, this era is in the era of rapid development of science and technology. All kinds of advanced weapons are emerging one after another. This has led to the rapid development of various tactical systems.

Grand Duke Mikhail, who had traveled back from later generations, naturally knew that automatic firepower combined with positional warfare would become mainstream in the future. Another time and space of the First World War, soon evolved into millions of people on both sides squatting in trenches to fight trench warfare?

Grand Duke Mikhail's army, one after another, entered the positions and prepared for defense. To the west of Noginsk, a defensive line of twenty kilometers was created. Five of the ten infantry divisions were thrown into the defensive line, ready to fend off the attack of the Russian Imperial Guard and Army.

With strong firepower and fortifications as support, Grand Duke Mikhail naturally will not be stupid enough to give up these advantages to go head-to-head with Grand Duke Nikolai, isn't that looking for death?

With the help of powerful firepower and fortifications to deplete the living forces of Grand Duke Nicholas. Then a decisive battle with Grand Duke Nicholas to defeat them in one fell swoop, so as to further capture Mosk, is undoubtedly the best way.

"Your Excellency, everything is ready. Various artillery regiments have already entered positions and are ready to fire at any time. The cavalry units were also ready. As soon as Grand Duke Nikolai's troops collapse, they can enter the battlefield from the flank, intercept them and destroy them on the battlefield! "Lieutenant General Brusilov was very excited.

This is the first battle of the army he has built, and of course he is looking forward to it.

"Very well, this battle will determine the future of the empire. I believe that we will be able to defeat Grand Duke Nicholas in this battle. Grand Duke Mikhail looked confident.

In his mind, Grand Duke Nikolai was nothing more than an insignificant and weak enemy.

After defeating Grand Duke Nicholas and ascending the Tsar's throne, how to make this powerful empire develop again, become strong, and defeat one strong enemy after another is what he really has to consider.

On the other side, Grand Duke Nikolai and Grand Duke Agriny, General Miloraf and others were also observing Grand Duke Mikhail's army with telescopes.

"Your Excellency, Mikhail's army dug trenches. It seems that they want to hide in the trenches to resist our attack! Grand Duke Agrini smiled and looked relaxed.

"Hmph! Simply a bunch of cowards, who don't even have courage, how to fight? To expect such an army to defeat the elite of the empire is simply delusional. However, Mikhail knew that his army was inferior in number to ours, and its combat effectiveness was equally inferior to ours. That's why I did it. He made such a choice, and he had no choice!

However, I have already given him a chance before, and he himself did not cherish it, so I can't blame me! "

Grand Duke Nikolai shook his head again and again, with a look of disdain.

He was also full of confidence in defeating Grand Duke Mikhail.

At the same time, he also believes that he only needs to wait until the battle is won. Well, he was also one step closer to the tsar's throne. In front of him, there was only a small baby. In the entire Russian Empire, and indeed in the whole world, no one could stop him from becoming Tsar.

"Your Excellency, when are we going to attack?" Admiral Miloraf asked.

"Order the troops, enter the battlefield, and get ready. All artillerymen, go into combat mode. Let the artillery fire first and bombard the rebel positions. The infantry then attacked again, breaking through the rebels' positions in one fell swoop. Finally, the cavalry enters the field and slaughters the rebels! Archduke Nikolai ordered.

Such tactics, in this era, belong to the standard process in war.

Napoleon the Great took the lead in concentrating artillery for use, allowing countries around the world to see the power of artillery.

It was also at this time that artillery became the god of war.

First bombard the enemy's positions with powerful artillery fire, kill and wound the enemy's living forces, and strike at the enemy's will to fight. Then send the infantry to attack, break through the enemy's defenses and defeat the enemy.

When the enemy collapses, it is time for the cavalry to dispatch and reap the fruits of the battle.

The defeated soldiers had no combat effectiveness at all, and at the same time, the legs of a person could not run the four legs of a war horse.

At this time, in addition to surrender, the only thing that was to be cut off by the saber in the hands of the cavalryman was to cut off the head.
