Even if Augustus was the king of Poland, he could not forcefully expropriate the property of the nobles regardless of their opposition. What's more, the characteristics of Poland meant that the king was only the nominal leader.
Of course, as the most powerful force in the city of Warsaw, August does have the strength to make the nobles obediently hand over the materials hidden in their homes, but the forced nobles will definitely feel resentful. Now the Russian army can
August was already losing a lot of energy in maintaining the superficial calm of Warsaw, with the tiger watching him not far away.
If the nobles now resented him, not only would all August's previous efforts be in vain, but more importantly, if those nobles united to do things in Warsaw, August would be
I can't stand this shock.
August gritted his teeth. Since he couldn't move those nobles, he took out the supplies in his palace as an emergency.
Do whatever you want, and after making a decision in your mind, August ordered the palace manager to take out a batch of supplies from the palace and transport them to the Kazakh Fort, although these supplies may not be enough for Jewski's 50,000-strong army.
It will be enough for how long, but it is enough to show his attitude to Jewski. August believes that Jewski is a smart man and he will understand his difficulties.
After this batch of supplies was delivered to Kazakh Fort, Jewski breathed a sigh of relief. Although this batch of supplies was not much, not even enough for 50,000 people to consume for a week, since August was willing to send the supplies, it showed that
August has not given up his plan, and the team transporting supplies also informed Jewski of August's intentions. After learning that the supplies came from August's palace, Jewski
My impression of August also changed slightly.
When this batch of supplies entered the city from the city wall outside the Kazakh Fort, the soldiers who saw the transportation team cheered loudly. Although this was just a transportation team and not reinforcements, it was a huge blow to Yevi who was holding on to the Kazakh Fort.
For the Ski Corps, this means that they still have people supporting them, and they are not doing useless work by sticking here!
The defenders inside the Kazakh Fort burst into cheers, but the Kahnpopov military camp not far outside the city was in a gloomy mood. The soldiers of the Confederate Army had not attacked for several days, although the Russian officers in the army kept beating them
Every soldier, but facing the city wall that is not tall but extremely strong, all the soldiers of the Confederate Army have lost confidence.
All the Confederate Army received at the foot of Kazakh Fort was death. Even the nominal leader of the Confederate Army, Kahn Popov, no longer shouted about attacking the city. Instead, he hid in his military tent and drank wine.
This situation lasted for five days. It was not until Potemkin's Russian troops arrived that the situation improved.
Potemkin's nearly 50,000 Russian troops pressed toward the Kazakh Fort overwhelmingly, and Yevitsky on the wall was immediately under great pressure.
This time the Russian army did not talk nonsense as usual, but directly attacked the city after arriving at the city to rest for a day. From the moment they came up, the Russian army showed a different fighting style from that of Kahnpopov's auxiliary army.
Although Yeviski was constantly repairing the simple city wall during this period, the Russian army's artillery fire was too powerful, and most of the Russian army fired submunitions. This type of large-area destructive weapon made Yeviski
Basic defense is impossible to guard against.
Moreover, when the Russian army attacked, it was obvious that they were fully prepared. Each Russian army team would carry a simple ladder, and when a Russian army climbed up, his teammates would shoot at the city wall to suppress Poland.
In response, some Cossacks would stand on horseback and shoot directly at the Polish soldiers hiding behind the simple city walls.
What's even more amazing is that after the Russian army suppressed the Polish soldiers, there were often two soldiers in a team who immediately picked up the hoes, shovels, or wooden blocks they had prepared and started digging under the earth wall that was only three meters high.
Got up.
The hard work paid off. Jewski's simple city wall only lasted for two days before the Russian army opened a gap. The influx of a large number of Russian troops made the entire Polish army's front turbulent. Jewski
He wanted to send people to drive away the Russian troops in the gap. But now his people could not be mobilized at all. The suppression of Russian artillery fire made the entire Kazakh Fort tremble at the Russian artillery fire.
Under the tilt of the Russian artillery and ammunition as if they were free of charge, the first line of defense deployed by Jewski was broken, and the Polish soldiers were chased by the Russian army like ducks to the gates of the Kazakh Fort.
"Open the city gate quickly!"
"Save us"
"Brothers, open the door quickly. Your captain and I are related."
"Woo...Woo...Woo...Open the door..."
Standing on the city wall, Jewski bit his lips as he looked at the pleading Polish soldiers below.
"Chief, why don't we open the door? There are so many brothers. If we don't open the door, they will be hopeless!"
"Yes, leader. Let's open the door, those are our brothers!"
Seeing this scene, the generals standing around Jewski also began to plead with Jewski.
"Do you think I don't want to open the door? Look who is behind our people. The Russians are right behind them. How do you ask me to open the door? Once it is opened, the door cannot be closed. By then the Russian army has rushed into the city.
Which of you can bear this responsibility!"
Hearing the pleading around him, Jewski, who was already a little excited, exploded instantly, and he yelled at the generals around him.
Hearing Yevitsky's scolding, the generals around him shut up. In fact, everyone understood this truth, but no one wanted to think about it.
The Russian troops not far outside the city showed no signs of attacking at all. Instead, they stood there and looked at the Poles as if they were watching monkeys. From time to time, laughter would come from the Russian formations.
Seeing the gloating look on the Russian army's face, Jevski's mouth was bitten by himself, but he didn't even notice it.
The Polish soldiers gathered under the city of Kazakhstan, which happened to be the best target for the Russian artillery. The Russian artillery, which had been silent for a while, started bombarding again, which was completely devastating to the Polish soldiers gathered under the city.
Even if they saw the Russian artillery shells and wanted to run away, there were crowds of people on both sides, and there was no room to turn around, let alone escape. At this moment, the damage from the Russian artillery was three times that of before.
The Polish soldiers below the city finally collapsed when they saw that the city gate was delayed in opening. They cried and fled elsewhere. However, the Russian cavalry not far behind them were unwilling to give them a chance to survive. Each one of them was vicious.
The Russian cavalry urged their horses to rush fiercely behind the fleeing Polish soldiers and then thrust their sabers into the chests of the Polish soldiers. Or they chopped them over.............
.........
Jewski on the city wall could only watch helplessly as his soldiers were slaughtered by the Russians, but he could do nothing. Suddenly Jewski knelt down with a bang, and his head was tightly clasped on the city wall.
On the ground, his hands were beating his chest.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry to everyone! Oh... God! Open your eyes and look at all this. Can we Poles have to live under the ravages of the Russians? We are all your people, so why do you
Such partiality...well..."
At this moment, Yevitsky seemed to have returned to his childhood. When he finally hid until the Russians left his home, Yevitsky's home was in ruins, with blood everywhere. Little Yevitsky
He stumbled to his father's study. In the study, Jewski's father refused to close his eyes. That was the first time in Jewski's life that he cried heartbreakingly, and this time it was the second time.
Everyone around Jewski seemed to be infected by Jewski. In a short period of time, only the painful cries of the defenders could be heard on the walls of Kazakh Fort.
Potemkin saw through the telescope that the Polish soldiers were lying on the city walls one by one, crying bitterly, and couldn't help laughing.
"Those Poles are really trash. Men bleed but don't shed tears. Just this small scene is so unbearable. No wonder the Poles are becoming more and more incompetent. Thinking about a hundred years ago, Poland was also a powerful country in Europe, but now it is so poor. It is really sad.
"Not enough"
"What the Marshal said is true. In fact, in my opinion, the reason why Poland is so unbearable is precisely because of their despair about the future, and it is precisely because of the existence of the Marshal that those Poles are desperate and dare to stand in the way of the Marshal.
In front of us, those Poles have only one way to die!"
Kutuzov looked at Potemkin who was very interested. He quickly followed up and said, and his words made Potemkin laugh even more heartily.
But Kutuzov's words also made another person next to Potemkin want to find a crack in the ground to get in. This person was Kahn Popov.
But as a Polish nobleman with ideals, Harnpopov would naturally not show his dissatisfaction on his face.
"What General Kutuzov said is true. Marshal Potemkin is the number one strategist in Europe. In front of Your Majesty the Marshal, these lackeys of August are nothing. I'm afraid even the Prussian army will do the same.
Turned into ashes in a matter of seconds."
Kharnpopov's flatterers lined up after Kutuzov, and as soon as his words fell to the ground, Kutuzov's face flushed. Kharnpopov's words seemed to be nothing, but he
One of Kutuzov's taboos was mentioned, and that was the Prussian army.
Kutuzov led more than 20,000 Russian troops to be completely wiped out by the Prussian army. This has always been a thorn in Kutuzov's heart. Now Kahnpopov actually dared to use this thorn to stimulate Kutuzov in front of Potemkin.
Tuzov.
"Khan Popov, what did you say? Say it again if you dare."
Kutuzov put his hand on the sword handle at his waist. It seemed that if Kahnpopov did something wrong, Kutuzov would be ready to draw his weapon.
"Okay, Kutuzov hands down, and Khanpopov, please be more respectful to General Kutuzov next time. Do you understand what I mean?"
"yes"
"yes"
Potemkin on the side saw that the conflict between the two was about to get heated and spoke. Of course, although both of them responded, when Potemkin didn't pay attention, Kutuzov looked at Kahnpopov fiercely, as if
Be ready to kill him at any time.
