Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar chapter 070

“Your Majesty, the 1st Army of the Imperial Army in Bulgaria has withstood the attacks of Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire and has inflicted great losses on them. The 3rd Army and the 4th Army also withstood the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman attacks.

Because the losses were not small, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire had gradually reduced the intensity of their attacks. At this time, the time is indeed ripe to launch a counterattack!”

The Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Empire, General Brusilov, said.

“Then, order the troops on the front line to prepare for a counterattack.” Solve the Austro-Hungarian Empire first and crush them. And then go all out against the Ottoman Empire!” said Mikhail.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” replied Brusilov.

“Your Majesty, I am afraid that the Germans will not want to see us defeat Austria-Hungary. Or rather, Austria-Hungary would not be willing to pay large losses. When the time comes, they will definitely meddle. War Minister General Sukhomlinov said.

Mikhail nodded, and he was naturally very aware of this.

As a die-hard ally of the Germanic Empire, the Germanic people naturally would not watch them be hit hard. The Germans also counted on the Austro-Hungarian Empire to provide them with a strong boost in the event of war in the future.

If Austria-Hungary now suffered huge losses, it would undoubtedly be a drain on the strength of the entire Central Power.

“Prepare the 1st Army and the 3rd Army to stop the offensive at any time if the Germans show signs of meddling. Of course, the Germans most likely would not have been directly involved in the war. As long as we see good when the time comes, we will accept it, and do not overly force Austria-Hungary. Then, there should be no problem.

This time, our main goal was to focus on the Ottomans. On the Austro-Hungarian side, a little advantage is enough. When you have the opportunity in the future, you will deal with Austria-Hungary!”

Mikhail had already thought about it and knew that now was not the time to defeat Austria-Hungary.

Besides, this time the Russian Empire wanted to seize the Ottoman Empire of Rumilia, and it would inevitably be under great pressure. At this time, Austria-Hungary and the Germanic Empire behind them could not be offended. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” replied both Admiral Brusilov and Admiral Sukhomlinov.

On August 30, 1798, the main forces of the 1st Army and the 3rd Army of the Russian Imperial Army began a fierce attack on the 2nd Army and the 1st Army of the Austro-Hungarian Army, respectively.

The commander of the 1st Army, General Gurko, in order to defeat the 2nd Army of the Austro-Hungarian Army in one fell swoop, transferred all four cavalry brigades originally assigned to the troops on the southern front.

The Ottoman army on the southern front had already lost a lot of money, and it could not pose a threat to them for the time being. Ten infantry divisions remained, enough to withstand their attack.

Gathering more superior forces to crush Austria-Hungary in one fell swoop is the most important thing at the moment.

“Boom! boom! boom!”

One artillery gun after another, fiercely opened fire on the lines of the Austro-Hungarian Army.

The soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian Army could only passively bear it. Their artillery and artillery, which had already suffered heavy losses in the previous battles, had not much left, and could not compete with the artillery of the Tsarist Imperial Army.

One shell after another, it fell on the positions of the Austro-Hungarian Army, leaving craters one after another. The scattered shrapnel reaped the lives of these Austro-Hungarian soldiers.

A large number of soldiers were blown to pieces, which caused the already low morale of the Austro-Hungarian Army to fall again.

Thousands of guns were prepared for fire for an hour.

The heavy artillery fire caused the front-line troops of the Austro-Hungarian Army to pay huge losses. At the same time, the morale of the troops suffered another heavy blow.

“Your Royal Highness, the Tsarist Imperial Army uncharacteristically launched a fierce attack, and they are about to launch a counterattack. Admiral Offenberg had a serious expression.

The situation of the 2nd Army of the Austro-Hungarian Army is now very bad, and the troops have lost a lot of money. At the same time, morale suffered a heavy blow. This is undoubtedly very unfavorable for the next battle.

Archduke Ferdinand’s face was livid, and he seemed unable to accept such a fact.

In his previous vision, this time they could easily defeat the Russian Imperial Army and win a glorious victory. But now, everything is turned upside down.

“Order all units of the front, hold the defensive line to the attack of those damned barbarians. Also, ask for help at home, we need more reinforcements!” ordered Archduke Ferdinand.

Even at this time, he didn’t want to give up.

It’s just that Archduke Ferdinand seems to have forgotten. Although Austria-Hungary mobilized this time, the hundreds of thousands of troops in the country are still training, and there is no combat effectiveness at all.

Hoping to count on these recruits to rescue them is simply delusional.
