Chapter 155 Edict "Marshal Henry, Marshal Ferdinand, I heard on the way that you have exchanged fire with the Russian army, can you tell me about the current situation?"
Saying that, William took off his cloak and handed it to Buel, then walked to the chair in the military tent and sat down, seeing William's movements, Ferdinand and Henry glanced at each other, and then Henry walked to William's side and reported: "Your Majesty, at the moment the Russian army opposite us has reached 15,000 people, and the Russian army has provoked our army several times before, when our army attacked Königsberg before, the Russian army launched an attack on our army, so a few days ago, after our research, it was decided to launch an attack on the Russian army" Seeing Henry's respectful attitude, William nodded secretly, and then waited until Henry finished speaking, William said: "Marshal Henry, Marshal Ferdinand, sit down, you are all my elders, don't be so restrained, by the way, you said that the war was provoked by the Russians first?"
After thanking William, Henry and Ferdinand sat down at William's head, and when they heard William's inquiry, Ferdinand replied: "Your Majesty, it is true, when our army was quelling the rebellion, the Russian army prevented our army from attacking Königsberg several times" Hearing this answer, William frowned, the situation was even more complicated than he thought, the Russians had actually attacked, which had broken through Prussia's bottom line.

William first complimented them, and then became concerned about the attack.
"Your Majesty, because the previous counterinsurgency operations have made our soldiers a little tired, so the attacks on the Russian ** team in the past few days have not been satisfactory," Henry said euphemistically.
Hearing that it was not satisfactory, William understood that the attack on the Russian army must not be going well, but at this juncture, he could not reprimand Henry them, but should encourage them.
Thinking of this, William said: "It doesn't matter, it seems that the Russians are determined to compete with us, the time is still long, the victory or defeat for a while has nothing to do with the overall situation, as long as our army can work together, the Russian army will not be able to resist the attack of our army" Speaking of William, the words changed: "Are the rebels almost wiped out?
Have you caught all the heads?
” Hearing this, Henry's face was noticeably much better, and he said with a smile: "With the blessing of God and His Majesty, except for Morakot's son Kleiman, who has not yet been caught, the other rebel leaders have been wiped out by our army, even Kleiman, the minister estimates that there will be accurate news in the next few days."
"Oh, that's good, you must destroy all the rebels, and never let them do any more trouble to East Prussia, which you have done well" William was unsparing in his praise, and Henry and Ferdinand were smiling when they heard William's praise.
"Your Majesty, since you have come, then tomorrow's attack will be under your own command" Henry couldn't wait to return the command of the army to William.
"Don't worry, I've just arrived, I haven't figured out the current situation yet, tomorrow's attack will be commanded by you," William said with a wave of his hand.
Later, the three of them discussed the situation on the front line, and when they learned that a group of Russian troops would come to reinforce them in the near future, the faces of the three of them were very grim.
While listening to Henry's report, William was thinking about the Russians' reply, and ten days were almost up, but it was obvious that Prussia had not yet received a reply from Russia, and William was very angry when he thought of this.
William was angry, but Kutuzov was really in high spirits, and now Kutuzov personally led 10,000 Russian troops and 20,000 Polish troops "borrowed" from the Polish nobles on the way to reinforce Mikharilev.
Looking at the army that could not be seen in front of him, the flame of ambition in Kutuzov's heart was burning violently, and he had already received the battle report sent by Mikharilev, in which Mikharilev said triumphantly: Although the Prussian army launched several powerful offensives, but with the blessing of the empress, the heroic Russian soldiers beat those Prussian rabbit cubs to the ground.
Seeing what was depicted in the war report, Kutuzov was relieved, and two days ago, he received a secret letter from St.
Petersburg, which was written by Potemkin to Kutuzov, in which Potemkin scolded Kutuzov in a mess, but in the end Potemkin told Kutuzov that either he could save Kutuzov by destroying the Prussian army and winning a big victory.
Either they will obediently withdraw their troops, and then what awaits Kutuzov will be jail time.
This letter drove Kutuzov to a dead end, and after the army was assembled, Kutuzov hurried on the road without even waiting for the army to complete the unification.
It can be said that Kutuzov's dispatch of troops caused an unidentified movement in Poland to appear in an instant, and in just a few days, this movement spread to the entire Polish region.
But when the officials below reported this sāo move to the Polish king Auguste, the king laughed it off.
Could it be that Auguste did not understand the serious consequences of such a sāo action?
Of course not, August certainly understood, and even he was behind this sāo movement.
Because of the departure of the main forces of the Russian army, many people in Poland have different ideas, August is one of them, this king is obviously not very willing to be a puppet of the Russians, and the throne under the ass is not hereditary, and even if someone is in tandem, the Polish nobles can completely use the election to oust the king from power.
So August admired the principles put forward by the Polish nationalists, and most importantly, the nationalists believed that the throne could be hereditary and that the royal power was supreme.
Now it is only a matter of waiting for Kutuzov to be dragged by the Prussians, in that case, perhaps Poland can take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of the influence of the Russians.
Originally, August was still very hesitant, the Russian troops in Ukraine and Courland were not left there waiting to rust, but some time ago the envoy of the Prussians made Auguste firm in his faith.
This envoy asked August to convey William's friendship, and said that Prussia was willing to protest to the Russians about the dulixing of the Kingdom of Poland, and at the same time, the Prussians were willing to support the Polish people with practical actions to obtain Duli, and if Poland was attacked by the Russian army, Prussia would never make peace with Russia alone, and Prussia would do its best to help Polish friends to ziyou in the sun.
August was moved by the Prussian promise, and after thinking about the question of dignity or life, August decisively chose dignity, he agreed to the conditions of the Prussians, and said that as long as the Prussians could hold back the Russian army, then he would raise the anti-Russian banner in a short time.
At the moment everything is as planned, Kutuzov led the main force of the Russian army to East Prussia, leaving only 5,000 Russian troops near Warsaw, maybe 5,000 Russian troops seem to be a lot, but these Russian troops are scattered and stationed, as long as the Poles can take it by surprise, it is impossible for these 5,000 Russian troops to react.
A few days later, Kutuzov led the army to Königsberg, Mikharilev led the generals to meet Kutuzov at the camp gate, looking at the joy on everyone's faces, Kutuzov also nodded secretly.
The day after William arrived at the Prussian army, the Prussian army launched an attack on the Russian army again, but this attack failed to break through the Russian army's main defense line as a few days ago, and the commander Henry only felt that his face was hot, but William did not say anything to him, but stood aside without saying a word.
It was not until the evening of the same day that William told Henry to stop the attack and wait for Russian reinforcements to arrive.
Henry was completely confused by William's orders, but the duty of a courtier made him not disobey William's orders, so the Prussian army stopped attacking the Russian army from the next day.
After Kutuzov arrived at the Russian camp, he immediately ordered to reward the three armies, wine and every meal, so that the Russian army was happy, because the reinforcements led by Kutuzov this time were relatively large, and the previous camp alone could not arrange everyone, so Kutuzov ordered a large battalion to be rebuilt in the rear of the large camp to settle the men and horses.
To Kutuzov's surprise, the next day, a man claiming to be an emissary of the Empress came to the door, and when he read out the order to remove Kutuzov, he did not notice the murderous intent in Kutuzov's eyes.
Immediately after the emissary had read the edict from the empress, Kutuzov ordered his prince to take the emissary down and execute the emissary under the name of jiān, and then looked at the officers in the military tent and said: "Do you believe me, or do you believe in this Prussian's jiān" Looking at the fierce light in Kutuzov's eyes and his personal guards outside the tent, the Russian officers in the tent said one after another, how could Her Majesty the Empress issue such an unqualified edict, it must have been sent by the Prussians to disturb the morale of the army.
Seeing that the officers were more knowledgeable, Kutuzov also nodded with satisfaction.
It turned out that when Kutuzov was sending a large army, an intelligence officer hurriedly spread the news to St.
Petersburg, and when she learned that Kutuzov had gathered 30,000 troops to prepare to march to East Prussia, the empress immediately went crazy.
Catherine II not only cursed Kutuzov, but even summoned Potemkin to scold, which has never happened before, since Potemkin arrived in St.
Petersburg, it has always been the tip of the empress's heart, not to mention cursing or speaking loudly.
Immediately after that, the empress issued an edict dismissing Kutuzov from all positions, and then sent people from St.

Petersburg to Poland as quickly as possible, hoping to bring the edict before the army moved.
But this messenger was still a step too late, and when he arrived in Poland, Kutuzov had already set off, and then he finally caught up and was unjustly killed, which is really sad.
