"Wu La! Wu La!"
Countless soldiers of the Russian army shouted slogans and bravely attacked the defense line of Grand Duke Michael's army.
Their faces were filled with apathy. It was as if he had no passion for his current life or even for this war.
It was no wonder that most of the people in the Russian Empire lived in terrible conditions. Every year, many people would die from hunger and cold.
Even if he became a soldier, he would only be cannon fodder. It was common for them to be docked of their pay and beaten up. Once a war broke out, they would be used as cannon fodder. Under such circumstances, what hope did those ordinary soldiers have for life?
This might be the reason why the Bu Dang was able to succeed.
Of course, even so, Grand Duke Nicholas 'attack with such a large number of troops was still quite shocking.
This was the first time many of the soldiers in Grand Duke Michael's army were on the battlefield. Everyone was nervous.
"Everyone, don't worry. Just fire like in training. The riflemen aimed and fired, while the machine gunners sprayed. Mortars destroy enemy machine guns." The low-level officers shuttled back and forth in the trenches, giving instructions to the soldiers below to calm their nerves.
"Your Excellency the archduke has ordered us to execute the second battle plan!”The signalman passed down the order.
"Plan B? Will it work?" Some soldiers questioned.
"Just carry out the order. Why do you have to talk so much nonsense?”What he received was a scolding from the officers.
The so-called second battle plan was one of the battle plans that Grand Duke Michael, Lieutenant General Brushilov, and the officers of the General Staff had previously developed.
In this battle plan, it was requested that there were not many people on the defensive line and that they should preserve their firepower. The light machine guns were not allowed to fire unless it was a critical moment. Only half of the heavy machine guns were left to fire, and the same was true for the mortars.
The reason why they did this was because they were afraid that their powerful firepower would be exposed and scare Grand Duke Nicholas.
If Grand Duke Nikola scared Mosk back, then it would not be so easy for Grand Duke Michael to occupy Mosk. Grand Duke Nicholas would even order more Russian troops to come to Mosk to help. In fact, they would be mobilized. In that case, it would also be impossible for Grand Duke Michael to end the war in the shortest time possible.
If the civil war dragged on for too long, it was very likely that there would be changes. For example, if other countries interfered.
One had to know that the Sun Never Sets Empire was eyeing the Russian Empire like a tiger eyeing its prey. The Germanic Empire was also staring at the Russian Empire. Once the Russian Empire was in a civil war for a long time, they would definitely take the opportunity to attack the Russian Empire. This was inevitable.
At that time, the Russian Empire would suffer unimaginable damage.
It would be even more difficult to rise up.
Grand Duke Michael hoped that he would not expose too much firepower.
In this way, Grand Duke Nicholas could see the hope of victory and continue to invest his troops in the attack. By the time he realized that something was wrong, it would be too late.
Grand Duke Michael would be able to win this battle in one fell swoop, leaving Grand Duke Nicholas no chance to turn the tables.
"Wu La! Wu La!"
The Russian soldiers in gray uniforms shouted their slogans and charged forward.
The entire formation was in a mess. There was no formation to speak of. In fact, many people were even squeezed together.
As cannon fodder, many of these Russian soldiers had only learned how to shoot. As for the other combat techniques, he had not learned them at all. Or rather, no one taught them how to learn. After all, cannon fodder was cannon fodder. Why would he need so many combat skills? Wouldn't that be a waste?
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The artillery under Grand Duke Michael's command began to switch targets and fire at the Russian soldiers.
The dense artillery shells continued to explode in the ranks of the Russian soldiers.
The shockwave from the explosion easily swept the Russian soldiers into the sky.
Many Russian soldiers were even blown to pieces by the shells.
However, more Russian soldiers continued to charge forward with their heads down, as if they were fearless, until they were also killed by the shells.
It wasn't that these Russian soldiers weren't afraid, but that they had no choice.
Didn't they see that behind them, the supervising team had already raised their rifles and even brought out their Maxim heavy machine guns? If they retreated without receiving orders…In that case, what awaited them was the bullets fired by the supervising team. At the same time, they would be treated as deserters.
This forced the Russian soldiers to charge forward until they were killed.
Dying in the hands of the enemy was better than dying in the hands of one's own people.
"Dong! Dong!"
As the Russian soldiers continued to approach their positions, Grand Duke Michael's troops began to fire mortars.
