Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar
Chapter 16 The Grand Duke's Confidence (Fourth Update, Please Collect It!)
On May 17, 1796, in the eastern suburbs of Moscow.
The Tsarist Russian Imperial Guards and Army troops led by Grand Duke Nicholas began to line up and prepare for the next battle.
Similarly, the troops under Grand Duke Mikhail also began to prepare for battle.
Three days, although not enough, were enough for Grand Duke Mikhail's troops to build the proposed fortifications.
Soldiers dug trenches with engineer shovels, and several trenches were connected with traffic trenches. Then build machine gun firepower points and artillery positions. Then pull a barbed wire fence in front of the position and plant mines. This is already a suggested fortification.
At least in this era, this is already considered a very advanced defense system.
After all, this era is in the era of rapid technological development. Various advanced weapons emerge in endlessly. This also makes various tactical systems are developing rapidly.
Grand Duke Mikhail, who traveled back from later generations, naturally knew that automatic firepower combined with positional warfare would become the mainstream in the future. Did the First World War in another time and space soon turn into tens of millions of people on both sides squatting in trenches and fighting trench warfare?
Grand Duke Mikhail's army entered the position one after another, preparing to defend. To the west of Noginsk, a twenty-kilometer-long defense line was established. Five of the ten infantry divisions were thrown into the line of defense, preparing to use the line of defense to resist the attack of the Imperial Guards and Army of Tsarist Russia.
With strong firepower and fortifications as support, Grand Duke Mikhail would not be so stupid as to give up these advantages and go head-to-head with Grand Duke Nicholas. Isn't that courting death?
Use great firepower and fortifications to consume the vital forces of Grand Duke Nicholas. Then fight a decisive battle with Grand Duke Nicholas to defeat them in one fell swoop, so as to further capture Mosk. This is undoubtedly the best way.
"Your Excellency, everything is ready. The artillery regiments are in position and ready to fire at any time. The cavalry is also ready. Once the troops of Grand Duke Nicholas collapse, they can enter the battlefield from the flanks. Stop them and wipe them out on the battlefield!" Lieutenant General Brusilov was very excited.
This is the first battle of the army he has formed, of course he is very much looking forward to it.
"Very good, 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 and weak enemy.
After defeating Grand Duke Nicholas and ascending the throne of the Tsar, how to make this powerful empire develop again, become stronger, and defeat each powerful enemy is what he really has to consider.
On the other side, Grand Duke Nicholas, Grand Duke Agliani, General Mirolav and others were also observing Grand Duke Mikhail's army with binoculars.
"Your Excellency, Mikhail's army has dug trenches. It seems that they want to hide in the trenches to resist our attack!" Grand Duke Agliani smiled, looking very relaxed.
"Hmph! They are simply a group of cowards. They don't even have courage. How can they fight? It is simply delusional to expect such an army to defeat the elite of the empire. However, Mikhail knows that his army is not as large as ours, and its combat effectiveness is also not as good as ours. .That's why he did this. It was a last resort for him to make such a choice!
However, I have given him a chance before, and he didn't cherish it himself, so I can't blame me for that! "
Grand Duke Nicholas shook his head again and again with disdain on his face.
He was also full of confidence in defeating Grand Duke Mikhail.
At the same time, he also believes that it is only necessary to wait until the battle is won. Then, he is also one step closer to the throne of the Tsar. In front of him, there was only a little baby. In the entire Tsarist Russian Empire, and even in the whole world, no one can stop him from becoming the Tsar.
"Your Excellency, when will we launch an attack?" Admiral Mirolav asked.
"Command the troops, enter the battlefield, and get ready. All the artillery, enter the combat state. First let the artillery fire and bombard the rebel positions. Then, the infantry will attack again and break through the rebel positions in one fell swoop. Finally, the cavalry enters the field , massacre the rout of the rebels!" Grand Duke Nicholas ordered.
Such tactics, in this era, belong to the standard procedure in war.
Napoleon the Great took the lead in using cannons together, allowing countries all over 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 position with powerful artillery fire, kill the enemy's vital forces, and attack the enemy's will to fight. Then dispatch the infantry to attack, break through the enemy's defense line, and defeat the enemy.
When the enemy collapsed, it was time for the cavalry to reap the fruits of the battle.
The rout has no fighting power at all, and at the same time, the two legs of a person cannot run as fast as the four legs of a war horse.
At this time, apart from surrendering, the only thing left to do was beheaded by the saber in the hands of the cavalry.
