Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 43 Army Reorganization (First Update, Please Collect It!)

The Tsarist Russian Empire implemented agricultural reforms across the country to improve the living standards of farmers. At the same time, the vigorous development of transportation and industry made the national power of the Tsarist Russian Empire begin to be significantly improved.

In order to protect industry and commerce, the Tsarist Russian Empire even raised tariffs to avoid the impact of foreign goods.

And all of this, in the final analysis, is also to make the Tsarist Russian Empire stronger.

Of course, the most basic manifestation is naturally the improvement of the military power of the Tsarist Russian Empire.

Mikhail has always had a sense of crisis. He hopes that the Tsarist Russian Empire will win a big victory in the battle against the Eastern Empire in a few years. I hope to win a big victory in the world war more than ten years later.

Thereby completely changing the destiny and development path of the Tsarist Russian Empire and changing the world pattern.

This requires the Tsarist Russian Empire to have strong industrial strength and military strength. Otherwise, everything is empty talk.

In terms of industrial strength, under his request, the Tsarist Russian Empire is vigorously developing industry and further improving the level of industrialization.

However, this cannot be achieved overnight.

As for the improvement of military strength, Mikhail was naturally very concerned about it.

After defeating Grand Duke Nicholas, Mikhail has almost taken control of the army.

In September 1796, Mikhail even summoned General Brusilov, Chief of Staff of the Army, General Sukhomlinov, Minister of War, General Gurko, Director of Cavalry, and commanders of various military districts. , to discuss the reform of the army.

"Generals, I think the previous battle of Mosk must have brought great shock and emotion to everyone. This also shows that the army building before the empire was essentially wrong. We can't just think It is unrealistic to rely on the superiority of troops and the cannon fodder composed of a large number of serfs. With the development of science and technology, the development of weapons and equipment.

We need to further strengthen the firepower of the army and train a more elite army. In this way, we can defeat our enemies.

The situation in Europe and even the whole world is becoming more and more tense. In the near future, there will definitely be a war. Therefore, we must be prepared!

And the Imperial Army, as the most important military force of the Empire, naturally needs greater development. Only in this way can we win the war in the future and ensure that the interests of the empire will not be damaged! "

Mikhail said to a group of generals.

In the army, it is relatively not that complicated. A big fist is the truth.

Mikhail was in the Caucasus Military Region, and in a few years, he established a guard army that beat the most elite troops of the Tsarist Russian Empire. Then, naturally, it should be up to him to decide.

Especially now, Mikhail is still the tsar. It is a matter of course for these generals to pledge allegiance to His Majesty the Tsar.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, let everyone announce the army's reorganization plan!" Mikhail said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" replied Admiral Brusilov.

"Gentlemen, according to His Majesty's request, the Imperial Army will be reorganized according to the formation of the various units under the previous Caucasus Military Region. In the end, the Imperial Army will be reorganized into sixty infantry divisions, ten heavy artillery brigades, and twenty cavalry brigades." , five mountain infantry brigades. The standing strength of the Imperial Army will exceed 1.4 million people." Admiral Brusilov announced.

The generals have no objection to this.

After all, in the previous Battle of Mosk, the army under Mikhail's command had strong firepower and even stronger combat effectiveness, completely beating the Guards. The other troops of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army are even more not opponents.

Now, it is not a bad thing to reorganize all the troops according to such a template.

"In addition, the Imperial Army is going to abolish the military region system!" Admiral Brusilov continued.

"Abolish the military region system?" This made the generals stunned.

You know, they are the commanders of the military region! The military region has been cancelled, so what are they doing?

"The Imperial Army will be organized into six armies. Each army has ten infantry divisions, one heavy artillery brigade, one cavalry brigade, and other troops directly under the army.
