Chapter 170: Cao Ying and Han Ovorov's careful thinking, how Potemkin on the side would not know, but he just frowned, Potemkin did not think that Ovorov could affect his status in the heart of Her Majesty, and now the empress loved him, Potemkin was not Ovorov. //.// Ignoring Ovorov, who was a little smug on his face, Potemkin began to think about the task assigned by the empress this time, which can be called difficult.
On the surface, the empress gave him 50,000 troops, and there were many such as the Praetorian Guard, but these more than 50,000 troops not only needed to calm the situation in Poland, but more importantly, to meet Kutuzov.
Although Potemkin does not know how the war is going on at the front, since Her Majesty does not want to start a full-scale war with Prussia now, if Kutuzov wins, then Potemkin needs to restrain Kutuzov from letting him do what he wants, and if Kutuzov fails, then Potemkin will do his best to help Kutuzov get rid of the Prussians' troubles.
From Potemkin's heart, he still hoped that Kutuzov could win, and if Kutuzov could achieve a big victory, it would be better to capture the little king of Prussia, so that no matter what the situation would turn out later, at least the Russian Empire would be invincible.
The efficiency of the Russians was still very fast, and on the third day the Empress gave the order, and on the third day the 20,000 guards near St.
Petersburg were ready to set off, and just as Potemkin led the army to prepare to leave, the Empress sent him back to the palace in a hurry.
"Potemkin, look at the good deeds you have done, this Kutuzov is really more than successful, 20,000 troops, a whole 20,000 troops were buried in East Prussia by him in one fell swoop, I think he deserves to die" Angry Catherine II mercilessly threw a piece of information on Potemkin's face, and in the face of the empress's anger, Potemkin was confused, but he didn't say much, but picked up the paper that Catherine II had just thrown at him.
While looking at Potemkin's face, it turned from red to purple and finally turned pale, and after reading what was written on this piece of paper, Potemkin wanted to strangle Kutuzov.
There isn't a lot of content on this piece of paper, but its importance is incomparable.
————————I'm the dividing line—————————————— After a flood, not only did it take a toll on people, but what was even more terrible was the fluctuation in the morale of the army, after which the Bugyeh River calmed down like a child who had had had enough of playing, and the Russian-Polish forces under Kulichkov's command crossed the Bugyeh River safely.
But after crossing the river, Kulichkov did not have a trace of joy on his face at all, the flood caused more than 300 casualties among the Russian soldiers, accounting for almost one-seventh of the number of Russian troops in the coalition army, which made Kulichkov hold back his anger in his heart but could not express anything.
Of course, he understood that the flood of the Bugier River was definitely not a coincidence, which could be seen from the green smoke that had risen for no reason before, otherwise how could it be so coincidental, not long after the smoke began here, the flood came there.
But hindsight is destined to be useless, and now is not the time to regret it, but to seize the opportunity to let those rebels understand what it means to survive, not to die.
After crossing the river, the pace of the Allied forces slowed down significantly, this time not because the Polish soldiers were dragging their feet, but because of Kulichkov's orders.
Because the Poles had been so annoyed by the hurry, Kulichkov had changed his tactics, slowing down and intensifying the reconnaissance of the first march, and he had ordered the cavalry in his army to keep the cordon fifty miles away, as had been thirty miles before.
Seeing that the Russian army has become cautious, Yevsky and others, who have been following them, have a headache, although the 3,000 Polish troops of the coalition army will not only not help the Russians but will become the opponents of the Russians at the necessary moment, but the combat effectiveness of the Russian army of more than 2,000 cannot be underestimated, even with the help of the 3,000 Polish troops, Yevisky asked himself that he still needs about four to five thousand troops to keep these Russians.
But now because the rebel army has shifted the main force to the borders of the Russian Poland region, Yevisky can now draw only a limited number of people, although he learned the news relatively quickly, but with the reckless people of the rebel army, the army can be transferred back in a week, Yevisky will laugh, and the border of the Russian Poland region must also be guarded by soldiers of the rebel army, and there are also two or three thousand Russian ** troops in the Russian Poland region.
Although the rebel army has grown rapidly due to the continuous addition of people, since the rebel army is only an army after all, an army of serfs who have just laid down their hoes, how much combat can you expect them to have.
In order to deal with the 3,000 Russian troops under Kulichkov's command, Yevisky was fully prepared with 5,000 men, and Yevisky was worried that it would not be enough.
Shortly after Kulichkov left the Bugie, less than seventy miles from the rebel stronghold of Krishton, the Russian army encountered a blockade.
Blocking the front of the Russian army was the 5,000 rebel army led by Yevisky, and at the same time, in order to be able to defeat the Russians, these 5,000 people were the backbone of the rebel army, either they had a blood feud with the Russians like Yevisky, or they were soldiers in the rebel army who had experienced the test of war.
It can be said that these 5,000 people are the Jinghua of the entire rebel army, and as long as Kulichkov can defeat the 5,000 rebel army in the way, then his road to counterinsurgency will be completed by at least one-third.
Seeing that only about 5,000 rebels were blocking his front, Kulichkov was stunned at first, but then ecstatic.
If there were 10,000 rebel troops on the other side, perhaps Kulickov would have been a little more cautious, but that was just a little, Kulickov, who had many experience in quelling the rebellion, knew that such an insurrectionary army would be able to fight smoothly, and if there was a little pressure, these rebel armies would be like chickens and dogs.
And there are 6,000 people on his side, can it be said that the rebel army on the opposite side thinks that they are Prussian troops, and with 5,000 men they dare to block the 6,000 army of the coalition army, and the commander of the rebel army must have been kicked in the head by a donkey, Kulichkov thought maliciously.
But if the commander of the rebel army really stood in front of Kulichkov, Kulichkov would have to shake his hand and say thank you excitedly, if these rebels were cowering in the town, then Kulichkov would really be a little difficult.
If it is a siege, just these 6,000 troops, even if Krishton only has 6,000 men to defend, then with the advantage of the city wall, it is impossible to say that Kulichkov will have a good taste of disgrace.
At this moment, the way the rebels fought the Russian army in the field was in Kulichkov's hands, and he confidently ordered the soldiers to rest in place, and then in order to prevent the opposite rebel army from ambushing the army nearby, Kulichkov sent the whole army of cavalry out to investigate, and the range of this reconnaissance was even more stretched to seventy miles.
What Kulickov didn't know was that shortly after he ordered to set up camp, several sneaky guys entered the Polish barracks from a hidden place, and because of the cover of the Polish soldiers, these sneaky guys were not detected by the Russian patrols.
The men, led by a Polish soldier, came to a tent, and the tent's curtain was lifted.
"Is there anything wrong with the guys," Kohenyol, the commander of the three thousand Polish troops, asked as he looked to the figures standing in front of him.
"Your Excellency General, presumably before you leave, Your Majesty the King should have already explained your mission to you, and you don't need to ask who we are, we are here to get in touch with you."
Among the figures, a slightly tall guy stepped forward and replied.
"Of course, I am very clear about my mission, but why do you make me believe you, although His Majesty August has already explained it, but I think it is safe for you to tell your purpose."
Kornyol was not a fool, and what Auguste ordered him was not a trivial matter, although he saw that these people had Auguste's tokens, so he ordered the guards to lead them into the tent, otherwise, Kornyol would not have met with them at all.
But you can't relax just because the other party has a token, and in more than ten years, you can climb from a small nobleman in a remote area to the current position of August's henchman, Kornyol relies on more than just sycophants, and it is his consistent style to plan and think.
Even if there was only a 1 in 10,000 chance, Kornyol was not willing to take this risk, if these people were impersonated by the Russians, then Auguste's plan and his life would not be ruined.
"Hello, Lord Kornyol, I think we should have met at one time," the tall figure took off his hat and greeted Korneyl with a smile.
Seeing that face, Kornyol instantly gasped, he didn't expect that the person in front of him would have the courage to come and contact him in person.
"Your Excellency Jevisky, it's a pleasure to see you here" As he spoke, Korney greeted him, hugging Yeviski like an old friend he hadn't seen for years "Since His Excellency Yevisky is here in person, I don't think I have anything to worry about, and since this is the case, then I will try my best to cooperate with Your Excellency."
After hugging for a while, the two parted in a haha, and then Korney said heartily.
Hearing that Kornjol was willing to cooperate with him, the smile on Yevisky's face became brighter, and the two talked intimately as if they were friends, and then Yevisky informed Korneyol of his plan.
