Chapter 57: Here Comes the War
A few days later, the military department announced the news. It turned out that the old Duke Bringas was appointed as the governor of the Imperial Slavic Front, and the subsequent arrangements of the old Duke Bringas proved that my idea was correct.
In view of the vastness of the Eastern European plains, the empire's main force against the Russians, including the three legions stationed in the Black Sea coastal corridor, will have fifteen legions, with a total of 96,000 people. One legion will be stationed in the corridor, and fourteen legions will be stationed on the corridor.
The land of the plains of Upper Eastern Europe.
The first echelon, the Imperial Legion of the Kiev Front Army, consists of the following five legions: the Second Byzantine Legion, the Third Spartan Legion, the Tenth Spartan Legion, the Fifth Reinstein Legion, and the Eighth Mog
Legion of Lenny…
I'm speechless about my ex, Mograine. Anyone who has played World of Warcraft should have heard of the classic dialogue "Resurrection, my warrior" in the Scarlet Monastery. This is what I mean to a guy called "
The tragedy of "Mograine"... What is even more confusing is that any legion named after Mograine is inseparable from a legion motto similar to "Resurrection, my warrior". Like the Eighth Mograine
Glenni Legion is "Phoenix Nirvana, I have been reborn".
Is there any reality worse than this?
Yes, the Roman Empire’s high-level military rank system from the mid-13th century to the 15th century was actually a replica or modified version of the tribes in World of Warcraft! Grand Overseer, Overseer, Lieutenant General, General, Senior Legion Commander, Junior Legion
Commander, legion centurion, legion centurion, honorary titles include, double-headed eagle guard, blood guard, imperial court guard.
Although the military reform in the mid-fifteenth century modified some outdated military ranks, military ranks such as warlord and legion commander still remained. For example, the honorary title of high-ranking warden that the old scumbag was awarded when he died is an example, and legion commander
This position was evolved based on the imperial military system and was similar to that of a division commander.
Then the old Duke Bringas summoned the main generals of the first echelon of the front army. At the meeting, his request was that regardless of whether the five legions were present or not, once we arrived in Odessa, if the strength was more than two legions, we would
Head north immediately.
The three legions originally in the coastal corridor have taken over the local area, and we can move forward with confidence. If the legion heading north encounters a considerable enemy force, it is best not to launch any attack easily, cut off their supply lines, and force the enemy back.
.If you encounter a large number of enemy troops, all the legions participating in this attack must conserve their strength to deal with the enemy. If that is not possible, they will retreat to the solid fortifications. But if you do not encounter any enemy troops, which is of course the most likely thing to happen, besiege Kiev and send out
Chasseurs raid Russian territory behind Kiev.
Before everyone left the meeting building, the old Duke of Bringas stood at the door and said to every nobleman who passed by: "Fight for Rome."
"My glory."
When it was my turn, the old Duke tightened his palms.
Orders are conveyed and then executed immediately.
The big ship heading to the imperial port of Odessa was waiting for us early.
When I left, the pier was full of beautiful ladies and noble ladies, and the cheap daddy took the time to come and see me off.
There were a lot of people accompanying me this time, including the eighty-man bodyguard assigned to me by Cheap Daddy, and his son Leon, the captain of the bodyguard, was transferred to me as the leader of the bodyguard.
The old heavy-carrying karak can carry many more people than this.
Valens, along with hundreds of trainees from the West Point Military Academy in Constantinople, Valens's father, Marquis Orion of Dzimischia, and a group of more than thirty imperial nobles took them with them
With so many people walking on the deck, we didn’t feel crowded. But our mounts had to be transported by two other large ships. After all, no one wanted the whole ship to stink.
Valens's father, Orion Tzimischia, as the highest-ranking nobleman in the entire entourage, he is the commander of our first echelon.
Uncle Tzimischia has a similar friendship with me and Valens, and he is my cheap dad’s playmate. When he was young, when he followed my cheap dad to Damascus, he served as a war supervisor, in charge of
It's military law. Later, he served as the governor of the Aleppo defense zone for several years. During his tenure, he was famous for his indifference. It is said that Valens's mother had a blind date with me for the first time. When she got home, she asked her family if Valens and I would do it.
He would not bring anyone to the house to ransack the house and kill him, so Valens and his grandfather were so angry that he brought his family soldiers and bodyguards to the old man's house to find out what was going on. Then, Valens's mother was in tragedy, but Valens's father
He stood up and helped share most of the faults, and in the end the two of them became a family after flirting with each other. Therefore, although Mr. Valens and Uncle Tzimiszia often have a stern face, he is actually a cold-faced and warm-hearted person.
people.
On the night of the fourth day at sea, the Black Sea breeze was gentle. After dinner, everyone went for a walk on the deck. At this time, Marquis Tzimiszia arrived at the cabin where I was.
As the elder of the Theofano family, he asked me about my situation and how I felt about going to the battlefield.
I am a little nervous and a little scared, but more importantly, I have endured so much hardship and am finally able to show off what I have learned. I am impatient and excited. But I have to shout for Rome like a native Roman.
Fight, I think I can't do it yet, because I still remember that I come from another country as old as Rome. But I will not back down, because as a time traveler, I want to prove that I am not much worse than my predecessor!
"Who do you think the Russians will send as commander-in-chief this time, your highness?" Uncle Tzimiszia casually turned the topic to the war situation.
Test me?
This is not a problem.
"The commander-in-chief of the army controls the fate of the battle. No matter how good the soldiers are with the best equipment, they cannot win if they are paired with an idiot. Therefore, I don't think Elizabeth of Russia will send all her lovers to do it."
I narrowed down the range, and there were only a few Russian generals with surnames left, "Peter Lacy, Burkhard Christoph von Manik, Vasily Vladimirovich"
·The combination of Dolgoruki, Peter and Burkhard has proven to be the most effective combination among the many Russian generals. If we do not go to war on the Black Sea coast, we are very likely to encounter these two men."
Uncle Tzimiszia smiled and said: "Your Highness, you mean that we will not run into these two people?"
"Yes, Burkhard is a German. He is not familiar with the south of the Eastern European Plain at all. It would be better to keep him in the north than to send him down. You must know that he has always won more wars against the Swedes.
If they lose less, they can act as a deterrent to the Swedes there. Even if they want to start a war, they have to worry about Burkhard's existence. Since Burkhard cannot come, the role of Peter going south will be greatly reduced.
The battle in Sweden proves that this man will win happily if he wins, but he will also lose his body and soul if he loses. And as a newly rising military upstart, he has always been jealous of the old man Vasily, who is afraid of the former.
Will one day take his place. Since Peter cannot be a partner with Burkhard, naturally he cannot be paired with Vasily. In addition to their disagreement in the court, the two have their own opinions on command.
It is difficult for people to have disagreements and then each do their own thing, causing the war to collapse."
Uncle Tzimiszia narrowed his eyes and smiled: "It sounds like Vasily will be the commander-in-chief of the Russians' southern expedition."
"Vasily Vladimirovich Dolgoruky, he was born in the prominent Dolgoruky family. Before the Mongols came, the blood of this family was spread throughout the principalities of Russia in the Eastern European plains. Over the centuries, those
The Principality of Rus was destroyed, but there are still many survivors. It can be said that Vasily is still very popular in this land. He is the local leader here. He has an advantage over Peter and Burkhard. In addition,
On the battlefield, he has many battles where he defeated the enemy and defeated the enemy. Even if he couldn't win, he wouldn't lose too badly. More importantly, even if Vasily lost, this would affect the Russians.
benefit!"
There is a hidden plot that benefits even if you lose, and only Russia in the world can trigger it.
why?
Before Elizabeth became queen of Russia, she was still a nun in a monastery. She had no foundation at all in the country. Later, she relied entirely on domestic powerful officials to seize power. Vasily was not only a powerful official among the powerful officials, but also helped Elizabeth come to power in one fell swoop.
Although there was no sign of rebellion in Vasily, his power was too great. If Vasily was defeated, this would be a good opportunity for Elizabeth to kick away the Russian nobles who were restraining her.
"His Highness's ideas coincide with those of the Governor." Uncle Zhimiszia gave me a favorable comment before leaving.
At noon on the fifth day, in early October, we arrived at the Imperial Port, Odessa.
