Omar is a staunch believer in Islam and hates Slavic culture. Because Slavic, even in Europe, is ultimately a pagan culture! Tsarist Russia wanted to invade Central Asia, but Omar was the first to refuse.

rush to the rescue!
We must rush to the rescue of Lake Balkhash as soon as possible!
In the past few days, he has not stopped for a moment. He knows that once the important military town of Lake Balkhash is lost, what a blow it will have to the entire Central Asia!
withstand!
Balkhash, you must resist!
...
The person responsible for the battle on Lake Balkhash would naturally not be a general with little reputation like Anton Lev.
But the famous general in the entire history of Tsarist Russia, Peter Alexandrovich Rumyantsev.
As the Field Marshal of the entire Tsarist Russian Empire at this time, he also knew what this war meant to Tsarist Russia. Tsarist Russia, which had just ended the Russo-Turkish War, needed a new breakthrough to realize their dream of becoming a great power. About
The idea of this war, Rumyantsev, proposed an important strategy.
That is, light on Sakhalin and heavy on Lake Balkhash.
Therefore, only 80,000 soldiers and horses were sent to Sakhalin Island.
But Balkhash sent 200,000 troops, and there was even a steady stream of troops and horses on the way to support.
Rumyantsev was born as a general. At the age of six, he had registered as a private in the Guards. He served as an officer at the age of fifteen and participated in the Russo-Swedish War, which established Tsarist Russia's status as a great power. At the age of eighteen, he was promoted to the infantry regiment.
Chief. This man was definitely a very good figure in the history of Tsarist Russia. He carried forward and developed the offensive combat ideas of Peter I. He did not stick to traditional line tactics, attached great importance to the construction and use of reserve forces, and emphasized frontal assault.
, combined with flank assault and close coordination of all arms.
"Marshal, a letter from Lake Balkhash."
Rumyantsev was still looking at the map of the entire Balkhash Lake under the dim light, and someone was delivering a letter next to him.
Who would have thought that Rumyantsev smiled coldly and waved his hand: "A bunch of sellers seeking glory are not worth mentioning."
In his opinion, these remnants of the Kokand Khanate were simply beyond his reach.
This is war.
When the Longyan people occupied Lake Balkhash, they had already cleared all the armed groups here and exercised strong control over weapons and equipment.
What can these ambitious old men do?
Rumyantsev believed that Tsarist Russia’s army of 200,000 people was enough to capture the entire Lake Balkhash on the day they just launched their attack!
"Marshal, this is what your Majesty means..."
Someone else reminded me.
Rumyantsev was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
He has always had great respect for Peter the Great. This ambitious emperor naturally thought more than himself. Although he was very reluctant to associate with this bunch of rabble, Peter the Great naturally thought more carefully and wanted to take over the entire Central Asia.
, the help of this bunch of scumbags is indispensable.
There are too many issues involving culture and religion.
Thinking of this, Rumyantsev slowly picked up the letter.
"Are they sure they can capture the enemy general's main camp in the rear when we launch an attack?"
