“Stop the offensive and let the troops withdraw!” After Archduke Ferdinand coldly gave the order, he left without looking back.

The performance of the Austro-Hungarian army on the battlefield made him very dissatisfied.

Or rather, he simply could not accept such a result.

Although, these soldiers are brave. However, the combat effectiveness shown by the Imperial Army of Tsarist Russia made Archduke Ferdinand feel as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

The offensive of the Austro-Hungarian army soon ended.

The soldiers who launched the attack receded like a tide.

However, a large number of corpses were left on the battlefield.

The cavalry, which had been preparing to launch a roundabout operation, also stopped operating.

There is no doubt that in this battle, the Russian Imperial Army gained a very large advantage.

“Your Excellency, the Austro-Hungarian army abandoned the offensive. It seems that they have suffered a lot in the face of our powerful firepower! A general reported to Admiral Gurco. He was the deputy chief of staff of the 1st Army, Major General Boris.

Major General Croix, chief of staff of the 1st Army , went to southern Bulgaria and led the rest of the troops to resist the Ottoman Army attack.

Admiral Gurko nodded: “They think that with a superiority in forces, they can defeat us.” But now they know that they are simply delusional. Next, the individual infantry divisions were ordered to continue the defense. If Austria-Hungary continued to attack, it would use powerful firepower to inflict as many casualties as possible on them and prepare for the next counterattack. ”

“Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!” Major General Boris replied.

“What happened to the southern battlefield? On the side of the chief of staff, there will be no problems, right? Admiral Gulco asked.

“Your Excellency, Your Excellency the Chief of Staff has sent a telegram. The Ottoman attack has been thwarted by us. Moreover, the Ottomans also paid a lot of losses. Major General Boris said.

“Very well, it seems that we have no problem holding Bulgaria at all. Next, wait until we have destroyed a certain amount of the enemy’s living force, and then launch a counterattack! Admiral Gurco said.

In this battle, the goal of the Russian Imperial Army could not only be to defend Bulgaria. Now that Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire have joined the war. Then, the Russian Empire naturally had to seize this opportunity to complete its expansion in the Balkans. Otherwise, wouldn’t it have been in vain for the Russian Empire to create such a big battle?

Tsarist Empire, Moske, Gram Palace.

Tsar Mikhail has always been very concerned about the battle on the front line.

In the current war, the Imperial Army of Tsarist Russia has already committed three of its six army groups to the battlefield, and ten newly mobilized infantry divisions and some units directly under the General Staff have also joined the battle.

Even the 2nd and 5th armies were ready for war.

It can be said that in this battle, the Tsarist Imperial Army, except for the 6th Army deployed in the Far East, the rest of the troops have already been used.

This war was particularly important to the Russian Empire and was directly related to the expansion plans of the Russian Empire in the Balkans.

In the long run, it is even more related to the rise of the Russian Empire.

Therefore, Mikhail has already given the military a death order. That is, in this battle, the Russian Empire can only win, and absolutely cannot lose.

Of course, this also depends on the external environment.

If the enemy this time is only Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire. Then, the chances of victory of the Russian Empire will be very high. But if the enemy increases, such as the Germanic Empire joins it. Even if the Sun Never Sets Empire personally came to an end. Then, if the Russian Empire wants to win, it will undoubtedly be very difficult. Moreover, then the Russian Empire will have to find a way to end this war as soon as possible. Otherwise, if it continues to drag on, the Tsarist Empire will definitely not have a chance of victory.

The current Russian Empire is not strong enough to contend with several powerful countries at the same time on its own.

Even if the Russian Empire still had an ally, the Gauls, the Gauls would definitely not fulfill the covenant at this time. They will definitely not put themselves in order to save the Russian Empire.

“Your Majesty, the situation at the front is very favorable to us. The Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman attacks were defeated by us. Not only that, but they also paid great losses on the battlefield. After the reorganization of the Imperial Army, the firepower has been greatly enhanced. In addition, the combat quality of the soldiers has also been greatly improved. The Austro-Hungarian Army and the Ottoman Army were not opponents of the Imperial Army at all! Admiral Brushilov had a smile on his face.

Mikhail nodded: “Very good, it seems that our army reorganization in recent years has been quite effective!” Order the front-line troops, fight steadily, and seize the fighters. This time, we must win. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Admiral Brushilov answered.
