Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 65 One Against Two (Third, Please Collect It!)

Time passed bit by bit, although the war mobilization of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was not efficient. However, they chose to mobilize the standing army to the border areas and keep the recruits at home for training.

Therefore, in just one month, the 600,000 standing troops of the Austro-Hungarian Empire were deployed on the eastern border and the southeastern border respectively.

At the same time, the foreign affairs department of the Austro-Hungarian Empire acted hard and soft against the Kingdom of Romania, demanding that the Kingdom of Romania open its borders to the troops of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, allowing them to use the territory of the Kingdom of Romania to attack the Tsarist Russian Army in Bulgaria.

The Austro-Hungarian army was divided into two parts. The troops assembled on the eastern border formed the 1st Army, commanded by Archduke Friedrich. The troops assembled on the southeastern border formed the 2nd Army, commanded by Crown Prince Ferdinand.

At the same time, the Ottoman Empire also assembled a large number of troops. The army assembled in Rumelia, as many as 350,000 people, formed the 1st Army, led by Admiral Arslan. The army assembled on the outskirts of the Caucasus also numbered as many as 200,000 people, led by General Muhammad.

As far as the current Ottoman Empire is concerned, it has almost reached its limit to be able to send as many as 500,000 troops to fight.

After all, the current population of the Ottoman Empire is only 35 million. Moreover, a large part of them were other peoples who were enslaved by the Ottomans. The troops they are really assured of are those composed of Ottomans.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire mobilized their troops, which naturally attracted the attention of the Tsarist Russian Empire.

After the military operations of the Tsarist Empire, the intelligence agencies have already acted.

A large number of intelligence personnel are lurking in the Balkans and those countries that do not deal with the Tsarist Empire, collecting intelligence.

Soon, the Tsarist Russian Empire realized that the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire had joined forces.

Although, there is no direct evidence yet. However, this is war, even if there is doubt, it is enough.

"Your Majesty, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire have assembled a large number of troops to the Balkan Peninsula and the border with the Empire respectively. We suspect that they are going to join forces to deal with the Empire." Intelligence Director Lieutenant General Vasily said.

Mikhail nodded, feeling the urgency of the situation.

"It seems that we need to prepare for the worst. This war will evolve into a war between the Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the Ottoman Empire. This time, the Empire will fight two against one!" Mikhail Said.

However, Mikhail was not intimidated. He believes that even with one against two, as long as other countries do not get involved. Then, the Tsarist Russian Empire can still win the final victory.

"Gentlemen, it seems that our plan has succeeded. Both the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire will intervene in this war. Then, the Empire can take the opportunity to take the Ottoman Rumelia region!" Miha Earl said.

Isn't the reason for annexing the Kingdom of Bulgaria just to take the opportunity to further expand in the Balkan Peninsula?

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Army has only deployed the 1st Army Group in the Balkan Peninsula. Even with the reinforcements of four cavalry brigades and two mountain infantry brigades, the total strength is only more than 300,000. But what they have to face , it is more than twice as many enemies!" The Prime Minister was a little worried about Donos Chaf.

"Yes, Your Majesty. After all, there is no border between the Empire and Bulgaria. If the war goes wrong, it will be even more difficult to send more troops to reinforce it." Foreign Minister Izvorski also said Said.

"Then, send the newly formed ten infantry divisions to Bulgaria to temporarily join the 1st Army's combat sequence. In addition, the logistics department will speed up and transport as much war materials as possible to Bulgaria to ensure that the Imperial Army is receiving In the next battle, there will be no shortage of supplies!" Mikhail ordered.

The ten newly formed infantry divisions were all re-recruited from retired personnel.

Weapons and equipment were issued, and after a short period of adaptive training, they were able to form combat effectiveness.

In this case, the army assembled by the Tsarist Russian Empire in the Balkan Peninsula has reached nearly 500,000 people.

Even facing the more than 600,000 troops of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire, the Tsarist Russian Army still has a great chance of winning.

After all, the armies of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire were not very effective in combat.

It is absolutely possible to fight 500,000 people against more than 600,000 people.

Moreover, the army of the Tsarist Russian Empire will continue to attack the Ottoman Empire until it reaches Yisitanbul, taking down the entire European part of the Ottoman Empire and realizing the expansion of the Tsarist Russian Empire in the Balkan Peninsula.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" replied Admiral Brusilov.

"I will personally send a telegram to General Gurko, General Mirolav and General Ivanov. The next battle depends on them. The rise and fall of the empire depends on this battle!" Mikhail Er's face was determined.

He firmly believed that the rise of the Tsarist Russian Empire would start from this battle.
