Tsarist Empire: Please call me Tsarist Majesty

May 17, 1796, eastern suburb of Mosk.

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

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

Three days, although not enough, was enough time 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 firing points and artillery positions were then built. Then a barbed wire fence was drawn in front of the position and a mine was 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 an era of rapid development of science and technology. All kinds of advanced weapons are emerging one after another. As a result, various tactical systems are developing rapidly.

Grand Duke Mikhail, who has traveled back from the afterlife, naturally knows that automatic fire with positional warfare will become the mainstream in the future. Did the First World War, another time and space, soon evolve into millions of people on both sides crouching in trenches and fighting trench warfare?

Grand Duke Mikhail’s army entered positions one after another, preparing for defense. To the west of Noginsk, a defense line of twenty kilometers was established. Five of the ten infantry divisions were put into the defensive line, ready to withstand the attacks of the Russian Imperial Guards and Army.

With strong firepower and fortifications as support, Grand Duke Mikhail will naturally not be stupid enough to give up these advantages to clash with Grand Duke Nicholas, isn’t that looking for death?

With the help of powerful firepower and fortifications, the effective power of Archduke Nicholas is depleted. Then a decisive battle with Grand Duke Nicholas will defeat them in one fell swoop, so as to further capture Mosk, which is undoubtedly the best way.

“Your Excellency, everything is ready. All artillery regiments have already entered positions and are ready to fire at any time. The cavalry units were also ready. Once Grand Duke Nicholas’ forces collapse, they can enter the battlefield from the flanks, intercept them, and destroy them on the battlefield! “Lieutenant General Brushilov 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 Nicholas was nothing more than an insignificant weak enemy.

After defeating Grand Duke Nicholas and ascending to 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 Agreni, General Mirolov and others were also observing Grand Duke Mikhail’s army with binoculars.

“Your Excellency, Mikhail’s army dug trenches. It seems that they are trying to hide in the trenches to withstand our attack! Grand Duke Agreni smiled and looked relaxed.

“Humph! It’s just a bunch of cowards, they don’t even have courage, how to fight? To count on such an army to defeat the elite of the empire is simply delusional. However, Mikhail knows that his army is inferior in number to ours, and his combat effectiveness is equally inferior to ours. That’s why I do it. He made such a choice, and he had no choice!

However, I have already given him the opportunity before, and he himself did not cherish it, so I can’t blame it! ”

Grand Duke Nicholas shook his head repeatedly, with a look of disdain.

He is also confident in defeating Grand Duke Mikhail.

At the same time, he also believes that as long as the battle is won. Well, he is also one step closer to the throne of the tsar. In front of him, there was only a small baby. In the entire Russian Empire, and indeed the whole world, no one could prevent him from becoming tsar.

“Your Excellency, when will we attack?” Admiral Mirolaf asked.

“Order the troops, enter the battlefield, and get ready. All artillery, went into combat mode. Let the artillery fire first, bombarding the rebel positions. Then, the infantry launched another attack, breaking through the rebel positions in one fell swoop. Finally, the cavalry enters and slaughters the rebel rout! Grand Duke Nicholas ordered.

Such tactics, in this day and age, belong to the standard procedure in war.

Napoleon the Great took the lead in concentrating cannons for use, allowing the world to see the powerful 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 injure the enemy’s effective forces, and strike at the enemy’s will to fight. Then send out infantry to attack, break through the enemy’s defenses, and crush the enemy.

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

The rout soldiers did not have any combat effectiveness at all, and at the same time, the human legs could not outrun the four legs of a war horse.

At this time, in addition to surrender, the only way to cut off the head was the saber in the hands of the cavalry.
