Tsarist Empire: Please call me Tsarist Majesty

In May, the Volga River has entered a period of abundance due to the melting of ice and snow upstream.

Merchant ships laden with soldiers and weapons and equipment, escorted by gunboats, went against the current.

Two years ago, Grand Duke Mikhail was preparing for this day. Gunboats and merchant ships were built specifically in shipyards on the Volgograd and Caspian coasts.

By water, it was possible to transport his troops to the northern regions in the shortest possible time. It is much closer to Mosk from Kazan than to Mosk by land from Volgograd.

Although, Grand Duke Mikhail did not want civil war to break out in the Russian Empire, which would seriously deplete the strength of the Russian Empire.

But at this point, there is no other choice.

He only hoped to win this war in the shortest possible time and seize the supremacy of the Tsarist Empire. In this way, it can be regarded as minimizing losses.

“Your Excellency, the 1st Infantry Division and the 2nd Infantry Division are the vanguard units, and the subsequent units will also board and set off one after another. In addition, the cavalry units have already set out, and they will go north along the Volga River to protect us. It is expected that after five days, we will be able to reach Kazan! Lieutenant General Brushilov reported.

Grand Duke Mikhail nodded: “We want to occupy Mosk as quickly as possible.” Although, the current capital of the empire is Petersburg. However, Mosque was also the most important city of the empire. Grand Duke Nicholas will definitely not watch us take Mosk. It would be great if he led his army to a decisive battle with us in Mosk. ”

Grand Duke Mikhail had great confidence in his army.

If the two sides play a decisive battle in Mosk, their chances of victory will be very high.

At that time, it will be possible to crush the army of Grand Duke Nicholas in one fell swoop and win this battle.

Lieutenant General Brushilov also nodded repeatedly: “Although His Excellency Grand Duke Nicholas has been fighting horses all his life, he is very good at fighting. However, in the face of absolute strength, any tactics are in vain. We will surely be able to defeat them head-on! ”

The current Russian army is very badly equipped. Not only the lack of artillery, even the Maxim heavy machine gun was not equipped much, let alone a light machine gun. Only a prescient person like Grand Duke Mikhail would increase the firepower of the troops as much as possible in order to further strengthen the combat effectiveness of the troops.

In the minds of many generals of the Russian army, the lives of ordinary soldiers are not important at all, like cannon fodder.

Anyway, the Russian Empire had a large number of serfs, even if those low-level soldiers died, they could easily recruit enough soldiers.

On the contrary, Grand Duke Mikhail cared more about the lives of his soldiers.

He has also been instilling in the troops the idea that the enemy that can be solved with shells will never let the soldiers fight hard.

This concept also made Grand Duke Mikhail further win the love and support of the soldiers.

Grand Duke Mikhail personally led an army of hundreds of thousands and marched towards Petersburg.

Such a violent reaction further stimulated the situation in the Russian Empire.

Although, many people sympathized with Grand Duke Mikhail, believing that the cabinet’s actions were stealing the throne from Grand Duke Mikhail. However, the direct military action of Grand Duke Mikhail undoubtedly plunged the Russian Empire into a terrible civil war.

This led many people to blame Grand Duke Mikhail.

The cabinet and Grand Duke Nicholas also jumped out, although they could not come up with real evidence, but claimed that Grand Duke Mikhail was very suspected of committing crimes, and that he killed Nicholas II and wanted to seize the throne.

Even if this is just speculation without evidence, there are still many people in the Russian Empire who choose to believe it.

After all, in the current Tsarist Russian Empire, all kinds of conspiracy theories are on the rise.

In this regard, Grand Duke Mikhail did not care at all. He knew very well that history was written by the victors. As long as he can win the war, then everything will be decided by him.

Actually, in the Russian Empire, military coups and the like were not uncommon.

Catherine the Great, didn’t she also kill her husband through a coup d’état and became the female tsar of the Russian Empire, and has always been loved by future generations?

Petersburg, Cabinet of Prime Ministers.

Prime Minister Plevy of the Russian Empire, Finance Minister Sergei Witte and Grand Duke Nicholas are meeting in secret.

Grand Duke Mikhail led his army north, which led to the de facto outbreak of civil war in the Russian Empire. It also put the top cabinet of the Russian Empire under tremendous pressure.

“Your Excellency, Grand Duke Mikhail is treason, a rebellion. We must suppress him in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, the situation will be even more unfavorable to the empire. The sun never sets, but people are always watching us. Even if it is not possible, the Germans will fall into the ground! Prime Minister Plevy’s face was full of worry.

The current Tsarist Russian Empire is in the midst of internal and external troubles. The death of Nicholas II and the outbreak of civil war left the Russian Empire in turmoil. And the Empire of the Sun Never Sets is even more blockading them.

If this continues, I am afraid that the Russian Empire will encounter a great crisis.
