"Stop the offensive and let the troops withdraw!" After Archduke Ferdinand gave the order coldly, he left without looking back.

The performance of the Austro-Hungarian Army on the battlefield made him very dissatisfied.

Or rather, for such a result, he simply could not accept it.

Although, these soldiers are quite brave. However, the combat effectiveness shown by the Russian Imperial Army made Archduke Ferdinand's heart as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

The offensive of the Austro-Hungarian Army soon ended.

The soldiers who launched the attack receded like a tide.

However, a large number of corpses were left on the battlefield.

The cavalry, which had been preparing to launch a roundabout battle, also stopped operating.

There is no doubt that in this battle, the Russian Imperial Army gained a very large advantage.

"Your Excellency Commander, the Austro-Hungarian Army abandoned the offensive. It seems that they suffered a lot in the face of our powerful firepower! A general reported to Admiral Gurko. He was Major General Boris, deputy chief of staff of the 1st Army.

Major General Croix, chief of staff of the 1st Army, headed to southern Bulgaria and led the rest of the troops to resist the attack of the Ottoman Army.

Admiral Gurko nodded: "They think that if they have the advantage of forces, they will be able to defeat us." But now they know that they are simply delusional. Next, the various infantry divisions were ordered to continue the defense. If Austria-Hungary continued to attack, use powerful firepower to inflict as many casualties as possible on them in preparation for the next counterattack. "

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Boris replied.

"What happened to the southern battlefield? On the side of the chief of staff, there will be no problems, right? Admiral Gurko asked.

"Your Excellency Commander, Your Excellency the Chief of Staff has sent a telegram. The Ottoman offensive has already been thwarted by us. Moreover, the Ottomans also paid a lot of losses. Major General Boris said.

"Very well, it seems that we have no problem holding Bulgaria at all. Next, wait until we have eliminated a certain amount of the enemy's living force before launching a counterattack! Admiral Gurko said.

In this battle, the objective of the Tsarist Imperial Army could not be just to hold Bulgaria. Now that Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire had joined the war. Then, naturally, the Russian Empire seized this opportunity to complete its expansion in the Balkans. Otherwise, wouldn't it have been in vain that the Russian Empire had made such a big battle?

Tsarist Empire, Mosk, K-Palace.

Tsar Mikhail has always been very concerned about the battles on the front line.

In the current war, the Imperial Russian Army has put three of its six armies on the battlefield, and ten newly mobilized infantry divisions and some units directly under the General Staff have joined the battle.

Even the 2nd Army and the 5th Army were ready for war.

It can be said that in this battle, the Imperial Russian Army, except for the 6th Army deployed in the Far East, the rest of the troops have been used.

This war was particularly important for the Russian Empire, directly related to the expansion plan of the Russian Empire in the Balkans.

In the long run, it is more about whether the Russian Empire can rise.

Therefore, Mikhail has already given the military a death order. That is, in this battle, the Russian Empire can only win, absolutely cannot lose.

Of course, this also depends on the external environment.

If only the enemy this time was Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire. Then, the chances of victory for the Russian Empire will be very high. But if the enemy increases, such as the Germanic Empire joins it. Even if the sun never sets, the Empire will end up in person. Then, if the Russian Empire wants to win, it will undoubtedly be very difficult. Moreover, at that time, the Russian Empire will have to find a way to end the war as soon as possible. Otherwise, if it drags on, the Russian Empire will definitely not have a chance of victory.

The current Russian Empire is not yet strong enough to single-handedly compete with several powerful countries at the same time.

Even if the Russian Empire had an ally the Gauls, the Gauls would never fulfill the covenant at this time. They will definitely not put themselves in order to save the Russian Empire.

"Your Majesty, the situation on the front line is very favorable to us. The Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman attacks were defeated by us. Not only that, but they also paid great losses on the battlefield. After the reorganization of the Imperial Army, its firepower was greatly strengthened. In addition, the combat literacy of the soldiers has also been greatly improved. The Austro-Hungarian Army and the Ottoman Army were not opponents of the Imperial Army at all! Admiral Brusilov had a smile on his face.

Mikhail nodded: "Very good, it seems that our army reorganization in recent years has been quite effective!" Order the front-line troops, fight steadily, and seize the fighters. This time, we must win. "

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Admiral Brusilov answered.
