Chapter 90: The Arsenal That Must Be Taken

"General Turuvsky, General Karl, who fled back with his own army, has been stripped of all his duties by His Majesty the Tsar, and Colonel Beneshev was killed by the barbaric peasant rebels, I hope you will carefully consider the orders of His Majesty the Tsar and think twice!"

A Russian in a top hat and a gentleman's attire persuaded the commander of the Third Route Reinforcements, General Turuvsky. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the tsar is the dictator of the Russian Empire, he does not control the local nobles in the absolute sense, and if the tsar wants to kill an ordinary rich man or official, it is naturally enough to say a word, but if you want to uproot a big nobleman, there must be enough reasons to be recognized by other nobles!

The huge power of the nobility can be seen everywhere in the territory of the Russian Empire, which is also the reason why the ruthless and cunning Catherine II defended the rights and interests of the big nobles and large landowners!

Catherine II knew very well that the real power in the Russian Empire was simply these aristocratic forces, and as long as the tsar did not brainstorm the low-level commoners to revolt against the aristocracy, the tsar would not be able to overthrow the entire aristocratic group.

As for attracting the people, it is absolutely impossible to do it, once the people wake up, the tsar can basically abdicate......

Therefore, even if General Karl shamelessly abandoned his army and fled for his life after the defeat, Catherine II could not put General Karl to death, but only deprived him of his rights and sent General Karl home to retire.

And the last remaining reinforcements, most of them were armed forces organized by local nobles, coupled with the distance between Moscow and the peasant rebels, the tsar could not control this reinforcement in a timely and effective way, and there was no radio communication to change the mode of war in this era!

Well, there is not even a cable telegraph!

Therefore, General Turuvsky actually has great autonomy, and the tsar's cronies next to him do not dare to offend this aristocratic general with real power!

Before the defeat of this noble general, of course!

General Turuwski, dressed in military uniform, cocked his beard and explained to the empress in a top hat: "Although Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's men won two victories, they were achieved by ambushes by virtue of the advantage of the terrain, and the soldiers of General Karl and Colonel Benershev collapsed when they were caught off guard and unable to organize resistance, and in fact, Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's men were of no use except for the frenzied charge of the battle, We just have to walk along the continent and get to Orenburg without any problems!

Besides, His Majesty the Tsar only told me to act at the opportune moment, and did not say that I should hold back. ”

General Turuvsky looked at the expression on the face of the tsar's cronies was still unnatural, in order to completely dispel his doubts, he pulled it to a marching map, and said: "From here, we can march on an open ground in a small circle around this plain, not to mention the steep mountains, not even the larger slopes, the view is very good, Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's people have no way to ambush at all, the only slight trouble is just a few more days of travel." ”

Although Turuvsky can ignore this tsar's cronies, in the officialdom of the Russian Empire, this category has no real power, but it is better not to offend those who can talk to the tsar.

After all, Turuvsky herself was still very loyal to Catherine II, and the empress acted in a way that was many times stronger than the stupid Peter III before!

In layman's terms, General Turuvsky belonged to the vested interests under Catherine II!

Li Liguo was not very satisfied after the victory in two ways, he knew that these armies were just the local garrisons of the Russian Empire, and the real elites were fighting on the front line of the Ottoman Empire!

This kind of army, no matter how much Li Liguo annihilated, it will not hurt the foundation of the Russian Empire, as long as Catherine II does not collapse financially, she can continue to call for the formation of more troops!

If you want to really defeat the Russian Empire, you can only defeat the elite legions of the Russian Empire and drive under the city of Moscow, as long as the city of Moscow falls, the low-level civilians under the rule of the Russian Empire will completely break out, and the Russian Empire will not be far from the real collapse!

Of course, the march into Moscow or something is just a strategic plan now, with Li Liguo's strength, it is impossible to defeat it, and the most important thing for him now is to temper a large number of peasant troops who have taken refuge in the flames of war into a real army!

"Yuan Fang, how is the combat readiness of the new peasant army now?"

Li Liguo stood next to a military sketch of the surrounding area, and asked Yuan Fang beside him, Li Liguo just got the news that the army led by General Tuluvsky on the third road is about to arrive in Orenburg!

With the rout of the first two reinforcements, the reinforcements on this route were extremely cautious, and they did not give Li Liguo any chance to sneak attack at all, and Li Liguo naturally couldn't let 10,000 reinforcements enter Orenburg along the way, otherwise, Li Liguo, who was already difficult to bite, would not have to fight......

"Report to the leader, after two victories, the morale of the new peasant army is very high, and your prestige among the new peasant army has also been significantly increased, and most of the rebel soldiers are convinced that under the leadership of the leader, they will finally win!

Moreover, in two battles, we captured a large number of muskets and artillery, and now we have nearly 100 field guns, and among the more than 12,000 new rebel troops, each of them has a bayonet flintlock pistol, so to speak, we and the regular army of the Russian Empire are armed without any lag in weapons! ”

After hearing this, Li Liguo added: "However, we don't have a reliable supply of logistics and ammunition, do we? ”

"Leader, although we have no reliable source to replenish our ammunition, the guns and bullets we have snatched are enough to support two or three high-intensity 10,000-person wars, but the number of shells is not much, we consumed too many shells in the attack on Orenburg, and now with the captured shells, we can only fight a frontal battle."

"Well, so we have to get Orenburg, only the abundant military supplies in Orenburg and the military factories that produce guns and ammunition can really support the continuous expansion of our rebel army!

Tell the soldiers to get ready, we are going to fight Turuvsky's men head-on here! ”

Li Liguo slapped his right hand heavily on a plain near Orenburg on the map! (To be continued.) )
