In the days that followed, Brankoff ordered the rebels to temporarily reduce the intensity of their offensive.
Of course, Blankov did not explain the reason for slowing down the intensity of the attack among his subordinate generals, but some smart people in the rebels still saw some clues from Brankoff's movements, and Nikolavich was undoubtedly such a smart person.
Up to the present in the Battle of Moscow, Nikolavich's Third Army can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, although the other armies in the rebels have also suffered heavy losses, but the Third Army is the most!
There were once less than half of the 30,000 battle-tested elite warriors left, and many of the remaining half were slightly injured.
Such heavy casualties made Nikolavich feel distressed to death, but there was no way, after all, he was now tied to a rope with Brankoff, and if he couldn't capture Moscow, he Nikolavich would have absolutely no good fruit to eat.
It was under such circumstances that Nikolavich pretended not to care about the losses he had already received and continued to give the order to attack fiercely, but when Brankoff's order was delivered to him, Nikolavich frowned and thought for a while before relaxing.
At the moment, inside the city of Moscow Gandalf suddenly made a request to Rumyantsev to withdraw his men from the southwest and move to the east for defense, which made Rumyantsev a little embarrassed.
Gandalf and a group of nobles around him provided nearly 5,000 soldiers for Moscow, and because Gandalf and his family were the first to support Rumyantsev, they were the first to participate in the war among the entire Moscow aristocratic private army, and suffered the greatest losses.
At least the 5,000 people who were handed over to Rumyantsev at the beginning, now there are less than 2,000 left, and such heavy casualties make Rumyantsev even feel a trace of guilt for Gandalf in his heart.
However, it is a very irrational action to let Mrs.
Gandao, who has been on the front line in the southwest for several months, withdraw and replace them with new people.
Gandalf's men have been fighting the rebels for months, and they have accumulated a lot of combat experience.
At the same time, the long battle also made Gandalf's men very familiar with every fortification on the ground.
It would take some time to get acquainted with the defensive positions if the troops were to be replaced, and if the rebels were to launch a large-scale offensive at that time, if something went wrong in the meantime, the problem would be a big problem.
In such a situation, Rumyantsev felt guilty.
However, he refused Gandalf's request, but in order to comfort Gandalf, he sent an army of more than 1,000 men to assist Gandalf's private army in defending the southwestern front.
Gandalf was furious at Rumyantsev's non-cooperation, and he directly told Rumyantsev that if he did not agree to his request and continue to let his men and horses bear the pressure of the rebels on the front line, then he would definitely take the risk and directly order his private army to retreat!
Gandalf's toughness annoyed Rumyantsev a little.
And at this moment, Rumyantsev's adjutant reported the battle losses of the troops in recent days.
When Rumyantsev saw the report on the losses of Gandalf's private army, his face flushed a little, and when he saw Rumyantsev's face, Gandalf rushed to Rumyantsev with an arrow and then picked up the report and looked at it carefully.
After looking at it for a while, Gandalf suddenly erupted, waving the casualty report in his hand and roaring loudly: "Your Excellency Rumyantsev!
For His Majesty the Tsar appointed you commander of the Moscow side.
I have always welcomed it, and even when you said that Moscow's defenses were insufficient, I and my companions resisted pressure from all sides by providing you with our family's guards, and we hope that our family's soldiers will help you to contribute to the empire!
But did you feel that your later actions were appropriate?
Don't you think you're overdoing it!
As soon as our private armies were in your hands, you moved them to the front line of the battle, and although we felt a little uncomfortable about this, we endured it, and as the war continued.
The pressure on my people is increasing.
It's a good thing now, my people have been directly lined up in the front line and those rebel bayonets!
I won't say any of this, but now you can see that my private army is basically wounded, and so far in the war, my friends and I have killed thousands of people for the Empire, and nearly a thousand soldiers have died under my command alone!
Your Excellency the Marshal.
I asked myself what I had done more than any nobleman in the Empire!
But now that my men have been severely damaged, and if they are left on the front line, they can only be completely consumed by the rebels, and Your Excellency the Marshal is not selfish on my part.
Although most of these private soldiers are the guards of the nobles, many of them are the sons and relatives of the noble families, do you know how many people have died in my family?
The Gandalf family has killed thirty-two of their children for the Empire!
Isn't that enough!
Your Excellency, I ask you to leave some seeds for my family and for the family that supported you with me in the first place!
Even if you don't agree, I will never compromise!
You don't have to perfunctory me with that just set, I know that the nobles of Moscow have provided you with nearly 30,000 troops, so many troops can always hold the position!
And I didn't say it before, it doesn't mean that I don't know, what you think about putting my people on the front line, I all know, if you are ready to stay the course, then I think I will study with other nobles in Moscow the question of why the private armies of the nobles are always driven to the front line of battle!
” After speaking, Gandalf did not wait for Rumyantsev to speak, turned around and walked out, looking at his back, Rumyantsev's face was full of gloom.
But as Gandalf said, now his people can no longer afford to lose, and if Rumyantsev does not give in at this time, then it is impossible to say that Gandalf will really jump over the wall in a hurry.
Rumyantsev was reluctant to take the risk, and now the time was already in May, and the reinforcements promised by Paul I were not far from Moscow.
In such a situation, Rumyantsev did not want to turn against Gandalf, after all, Gandalf was the first to jump out and agree to his request.
Rumyantsev doesn't want to be infamy!
Not long after Gandalf's frenzy, Gandalf's desired transfer order reached the southwestern front of the battlefield, which was also the southwest corner of Moscow.

Immediately after receiving the order to redeploy his troops, Gandalf sent his men to the eastern part of the city, where he had made all the arrangements. ............................................
On 19 May 1790, Wilhelm arrived in Frankfurt, marking his second visit to Frankfurt.
As in last year, William was greeted by the Speaker of the Holy Roman Parliament, Sigel, and the Mayor of Frankfurt, Dient, but unlike last year, the line was significantly more than twice as large.
Four of the seven Electors who attended the Elector of the Reich had already arrived in Frankfurt, and Wilhelm was the fifth, preceded by Elector Eltal of Mainz, Karl Joseph of Trier, Elector August of Saxony, and Maximilian of Cologne, one of the two protagonists of the Electoral Council.
As a puppet under the actual control of Prussia, and Saxony happened to be adjacent to Frankfurt, Auguste naturally arrived earlier than Wilhelm, and the master could not have arrived, and the servant was still dragging on the road, although this analogy was a bit too heavy, but this is the truth.
The Elector of Bavaria, Etans, was invited by Leopold, so his trip was delayed, and Etans also sent someone to explain to Wilhelm.
The reason why Maximilian arrived in Frankfurt so early was that he hoped to communicate privately with these electors as soon as possible to canvass for his own votes.
When Wilhelm got out of the carriage, he saw that the crowd that greeted him was divided into two sides, on one side were the Reichstag and the city government of Frankfurt, and on the other side were the four Electors themselves or their personal representatives, among whom Maximilian and Auguste were the deities, while the Electors of Eltal and Karl Joseph sent their own personal representatives to meet William.
After William got out of the carriage, he greeted the nobles who greeted his group, and of course there were only a few people who could greet William.
Seeing the personal representatives of Eltal and Karl Joseph following Maximilian in the same footsteps, William frowned, because on such occasions, everyone must behave in a proper manner, and now Eltal and Karl Joseph's personal envoys are undoubtedly showing their attitude to everyone.
Since the establishment of the Electorate in the Empire, the relationship between religious and secular electors has not been harmonious, especially after the Electors of Brandenburg and Saxony embraced Protestantism, and the Catholic-born religious electors became more hostile to the Protestant electors.
Although Protestantism has been recognized by the world, it is still a betrayal of God in the eyes of die-hard Catholics, and the Elector of Mainz, Eltal, has shown himself most fiercely on various occasions.
However, William was not too surprised that Maximilian was able to unite with the other two religious electors.
No three points or three would dare to go to Liangshan, and now that Maximilian dares to blatantly launch a competition for the imperial throne, then he must have some hole cards in his hand.
