Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 79 Destruction (Fourth More, Please Subscribe!)

Facing the fierce attack of the Tsarist Russian Army, the Ottoman Army could not bear it at all.

Their soldiers, whether it is weapons and equipment, combat literacy, or fighting will, cannot compare with the soldiers of the Tsarist Russian Empire.

So that in the face of such a difficult situation, how could they resist it!

Under the fierce attack of the Tsarist Russian Army, the defense line of the Ottoman Army was in jeopardy, and it was in danger of being broken through soon.

General Arslan, commander of the 1st Army of the Ottoman Army, has racked his brains and tried his best. However, it was still impossible to maintain the line of defense. Facing the fierce attack of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army, he was powerless.

"Your Excellency General, His Majesty the Sultan asked us to do our best to resist the attack of the Tsarist Russian Empire. However, we can't resist now! The casualties on the front line are so large that we will soon be unable to sustain it." A general said with a look of frustration.

Admiral Arslan nodded, he is also in a state of desperation now.

The Tsarist Russian Army launched attacks from multiple directions, and the defending Ottoman Army faced fierce artillery fire and powerful offensive firepower from the Tsarist Russian Army.

It can be said that this is definitely the most powerful enemy that the Ottoman Empire has encountered over the years.

Even twenty years ago, when they went to war with the Russian Empire, they still lost. However, the Tsarist Russian Empire is definitely not so powerful, not so powerful!

But now, the performance of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army on the battlefield completely blinded the eyes of the Ottoman Army generals. It can be said that from the beginning of the war, they were suppressed and beaten, and they were completely at a disadvantage. Even after receiving reinforcements and greatly improving its strength, it was still not the target of the Tsarist Russian Army.

"Order the front-line troops to resist the Russians. Behind us is our territory. We must not let the Russians take away our land!" Arslan gritted his teeth and said.

The Ottoman Empire has lost too much territory since modern times. Now, only Rumelia is left in Europe. If it is occupied by the Russians again, one can imagine how big a blow it would be to the Ottoman Empire.

"Yes, Your Excellency the General!" replied the general.

However, whether they can withstand the attack of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army is still very difficult to say. In other words, the possibility of success will be very, very small.

"Ulla! Ulla!"

The soldiers of the Russian Empire Army shouted slogans, and with the support of their own powerful firepower, they launched a fierce attack on the defense line of the Ottoman Empire Army.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

As the soldiers advanced, their Mosin Nagant rifles kept firing.

The bullets flew over the heads of the Ottoman soldiers, so that the Ottoman soldiers could only shrink in the broken trenches.

But soon, countless grenades flew in and hit the Ottoman positions.

A lot of grenades fell into the trenches, turning those who were bombed by the Ottoman soldiers on their backs, bloody and bloody.

Tsarist Russian soldiers, taking this opportunity, broke into the trenches of the Ottoman Army.

After a fierce battle, the Ottoman soldiers in this position were either killed or surrendered. The position also fell into the hands of Russian soldiers.

Subsequently, more troops of the Tsarist Russian Empire poured into the position and began to expand to the two wings.

Soon, the defense line of the Ottoman soldiers was broken through, and a large number of Ottoman soldiers began to flee.

Plovdiv, Headquarters of the 1st Army of the Russian Imperial Army.

General Gurko, the commander of the army group, and Major General Croix, the chief of staff, are commanding the army to fight.

"Your Excellency, the 1st Infantry Division, 2nd Infantry Division, 3rd Infantry Division and 4th Infantry Division have broken through the Ottoman line at Svirennag and are attacking Edirne. The 5th Infantry Division, 6th Infantry Division, 7th Infantry Division, 61st Infantry Division and 62nd Infantry Division supported them from the east.

The Ottomans assembled a large number of troops in Edirne. This city is the capital of the Rumelia region, and it can be called the most important city of the Ottoman Empire on the Balkan Peninsula. They will definitely defend this city. "

Major General Croix pointed to the combat map hanging on the wall, analyzing the current battle situation.

Admiral Gurko nodded again and again: "Order the nine infantry divisions on the front line to storm Edirne and take it here in the shortest possible time. The other infantry divisions continue to assault south. Especially the cavalry units, we must Bring out their speed and hit Yi Si Tanbul directly!"

0…ask for flowers……

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Major General Croix replied.

The military operation of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army this time has a very clear goal, which is to seize the entire Rumelia.

Then, the army of the Tsarist Russian Empire will naturally advance all the way south, until it reaches the Aegean Sea, the Dardanelles, the Sea of ​​Marmara and the Bosphorus.

In this way, it is possible to ensure the control of the Tsarist Russian Empire over this piece of land.

Under the order of Admiral Gurko, the Tsarist Russian Army continued to launch a fierce attack.

The nearly 200,000 Ottoman army stationed in Edirne was besieged.

Although these Ottoman soldiers also showed great bravery, they were determined to do their best to defend the most important city of the Ottoman Empire in Europe.

However, facing the fierce shelling of hundreds of artillery pieces from the Tsarist Russian Empire, the defenders in the city still suffered heavy losses. At the same time, the whole city was almost in ruins.

In just one week, Edirne was defeated by the Tsarist Russian Army.

Some of the Ottoman soldiers stationed here died in battle, and most of them surrendered to the Russian Empire.

At the same time, other units of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army were also rushing forward.

In particular, several cavalry brigades are not far from Yi Si Tanbul.

Although, the Ottoman Empire Army mobilized a lot of troops in an attempt to block the attack of the Russian Empire Army.

However, many of these newly mobilized troops were farmers or herdsmen not long ago, and they were not even fully equipped with weapons and equipment, let alone combat effectiveness.

Naturally, it is conceivable what kind of results such troops will have when facing the elite troops of the Tsarist Russian Empire Army.

The Tsarist Russian Empire Army almost won a crushing victory.

The Ottoman Army was on the verge of collapse on the Rumelia battlefield. Soon, the entire Rumelia will fall under the control of the Tsarist Empire and become the new leader of the Tsarist Empire. .
