Chapter 94: A World Where only the Polish Legion Is Injured

Chapter 94 A world where only the Polish army was injured was achieved

On the Turkish-Russian border, the Russian army's attack was very swift, and this style of play made August Kazimierzski feel particularly uncomfortable.

The consumption on the front line was simply huge, and this consumption was not something that Moldavia alone could sustain.

So only four days after the battle began, August Kazimierzski had already sent a messenger to Constantinie, hoping that the imperial government could send reinforcements and supplies to support the front line in time.

However, as the current favorite of Emperor Sai, Haji Pasha naturally knew the thoughts of his own sultan. The Polish army had nearly 100,000 people and occupied Moldavia. Although Emperor Sai positioned them as watchdogs, it would not be a good thing if this dog was too strong.

In the history of the Ottoman Empire, there were civil wars caused by supporting different princes to ascend the throne. Although the Polish Legion could only rely on the Ottoman government, its excessive military strength still made Sergei the Great uneasy. Therefore, Haji Pasha hoped that this matter would continue for a little longer, as it could not only weaken the strength of the Polish Legion but also consume the Russians.

Influenced by this guiding ideology, the Ottoman government, which was efficient in dealing with other issues, immediately began to play a classic drama - passing the buck - when it met August Kazimierzski's request for help.

Prime Minister Haji Pasha said that he had to find the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War said that there was no military expenditure and the army could not be dispatched. The Ministry of Finance had to approve the military expenditure. The Ministry of Finance said that the navy had been making trouble. In addition, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of Culture and Education were all looking for funds from the Ministry of Finance. The Ministry of Finance was also a good cook without rice, so it had to find the Sultan.

What? You asked where the Sultan was. The Sultan had not returned to Constantiniere yet?

In the end, considering that the eating should not be too ugly, Haji Pasha still sent troops and supplies. As for the troops, they were naturally the Moldavia people who suffered from the Russian army's looting in the last war. This group of people almost spontaneously wanted to fight the Russian army. After all, if the Polish army on the front line failed, the war would burn their homes again. For the Moldavia people who had already suffered such a thing, this was unbearable.

As soon as the government called, this group of people immediately went up, focusing on a voluntary one.

As for the Russian army, Suvorov was also having a headache for the attack. This time it was he who commanded the Russian army to fight. After all, although the Russian army was defeated in the last Russo-Turkish war, he did a very good job in the subsequent command of retreat and defensive counterattack, which made Catherine very appreciative.

At the same time, Catherine considered that the Russian army could not repeat the previous problems, so this time she did not set it up like last time, but let Repnin be the Russian chief of staff, Suvorov as the commander-in-chief, and Potemkin be responsible for logistics.

But Suvorov encountered unexpected resistance in Moldavia. The Polish army was not strong in combat, but they had a deep hatred for the Russian army. This combination made it difficult for the Russian army to gain much advantage in the battle with the Polish army. Prince Poniatowski and Kosciuszko were also good generals. For a while, the Russian army could hardly advance much.

The stalemate between the two sides on the front line did not worry Catherine. This batch of Russian troops was full of newly recruited soldiers. The last war caused great Russia to suffer heavy losses. This time, it was not so much about trying to get much benefit from the Ottoman Empire, but rather cheating the British for technology. After all, the Ottoman Empire could make the so-called steam engine, so there was no reason why the great Russia could not have it.

Of course, it is unrealistic to count on our side, but the British have technology and money, Russia has gray animals, plus there is a need for training troops, and it can also test the current military strength of the Ottoman Empire. Why didn't Catherine agree? As for how long the war will last, anyway, after getting the technology and spending the British sponsorship, Catherine plans to cease fighting. As long as she ceases fighting, will Selim fight? Catherine knows the answer without thinking.

The war is still going on, but it is hard to say who won. Perhaps the only one injured is the Polish Legion.

After about a month and a half of procrastination, the new army finally set out from Constantinie. At this time, the Polish Legion had suffered as many as 7,000 casualties and the defense line was forced to retreat.

The new army finally arrived at the battlefield before the Polish Legion changed its defense line again. The Russians wanted to train troops, and the Sultan also wanted to train troops. The Ottoman Empire, which had been passively defending, chose to take the initiative this time, and the commander was Muhammad Ali Pasha, who had already secretly returned to Constantinie.

A large-scale decisive battle between the two sides broke out in Moldavia. There were 90,000 Russian troops participating in the battle, while the Ottoman army had a full 120,000 troops. The final result of this war ended in a draw between the two sides. The Russian army suffered nearly 20,000 casualties, and the Ottoman Empire army suffered more than 20,000 casualties. This was purely due to the difficulty of the Polish Corps in cooperating closely with the Ottoman New Army.

This sudden war came to an end. Although the two sides did not sign any armistice agreement, the situation on the border eased. After all, both sides saw the strength of the other side. In this case, wasting money on fighting was a brain pit.

After the war ended hastily, a bigger storm would be set off by France. At the same time as the Russo-Turkish decisive battle ended, Napoleon led the French army over the Alps and headed straight for northern Italy.

The shocking scene in history was staged again. General Dalgenteau led the Central Division of the Austrian-Sardinian coalition to attack the position guarded by a French division led by General Servoni near Montenotte.

Although the Servoni division was repelled, the 1,500 men commanded by Tampon, who was responsible for guarding the key section of the French position, held out for a whole day.

Napoleon ordered General Augereau and General Massena to command the French army to surround Dalgenteau's flanks and force him to retreat. In this battle, 1,000 Austrians were killed and 2,000 were captured.

In other words, Napoleon easily defeated the Austrian and Sardinian coalition forces. The rich northern Italy was like a defenseless girl, sent to France or to General Napoleon.

The French were about to enjoy it.
