"Oh my god! We have failed, we have been defeated!”Admiral Mirolaf could hardly accept this fact.
Archduke Agleni did not say a word, but if one looked closely, one would find that his eyes seemed to have lost their luster.
Even Grand Duke Nicholas seemed to have been severely injured at this moment, like a defeated rooster.
"Your Excellency, the troops are being defeated. We are no longer able to organize a strong resistance.”General Mirolaf reported.
As an old general, Grand Duke Nicholas naturally understood this.
"Order the troops to retreat to Mosk. Relying on Mosk's defense. Then, send a telegram to the Northern and Western Military Regions. We need more reinforcements!”Grand Duke Nicholas said through gritted teeth.
He seemed to have forgotten that he had previously said that he hoped that this war would end as soon as possible and that the outcome would be determined as soon as possible. This would prevent the Russian Empire from paying too much in this war.
However, the premise was that he would be the final victor.
If he failed, everything that he had said before would naturally not count.
He had never realized that he was so close to the throne of the Tsar. This time, he was naturally unwilling to give up and naturally could not accept failure.
Even if he had to give it his all, he still hoped to be able to endure and struggle a little longer. Perhaps, there would be a turning point?
As for how much damage this would cause to the Russian Empire and how much danger it would cause, he could not care less.
People were like this. If every man was for himself, then the heavens would destroy the earth. Naturally, they had to put their own interests first.
A large number of Russian troops began to retreat towards Mosk.
Meanwhile, Grand Duke Michael's troops quickly pursued.
The ten infantry divisions were in hot pursuit of Grand Duke Nicholas 'troops.
Tens of thousands of cavalrymen attacked from the flanks.
Grand Duke Michael had already won this battle. It could be said that he was only one step away from the throne of the Tsar!
"We won, we won! Your Excellency, we won!" Lieutenant General Brushilov's face was filled with joy.
The other generals and officers also cheered.
After winning this battle, they had cleared all the obstacles for Grand Duke Michael to ascend the throne of the Tsar.
Soon, Grand Duke Michael would be able to succeed the throne and become the Tsar. As for them, they would naturally be able to rise with the tide.
"Yes, we won! However, before everything is settled, we cannot relax. Tell General Guarco to increase the intensity of the attack and intercept the enemy's main force before they return to Mosk. We have to wipe them all out before we can win.”Grand Duke Michael was not blinded by his current victory. Instead, he was very clear-headed.
He knew that it was not the time to celebrate victory yet.
"Yes, Your Excellency!" Lieutenant General Brushilov replied.
After receiving the order, Lieutenant General Guarco, the commander of the cavalry, dispatched all his forces to launch an attack.
Archduke Nicholas 'troops had already been defeated and had no strength to resist at all. As a result, they could not resist the attack of Grand Duke Michael's troops at all.
Even though Grand Duke Nicholas wanted to retreat to Mosk City and defend the city, he would then mobilize other troops to deal with Grand Duke Michael.
However, his plan was very good. However, it was very difficult to achieve.
Grand Duke Michael's troops naturally wouldn't let them escape back to Mosk so easily. In that case, it would only cause a lot of trouble and even a lot of accidents.
Therefore, it was undoubtedly the best to eliminate all of Grand Duke Nicholas 'main forces.
General Guarco did not disappoint Grand Duke Michael. The cavalry successfully bypassed the fleeing soldiers of Grand Duke Nicholas and intercepted them in the eastern suburbs of Mosk.
When they retreated here, they were greeted with a hail of bullets.
Even though they didn't have time to build a defense line. However, these cavalrymen placed their warhorses in front of them and placed their lances on the backs of their horses. Then, they set up the mortars and light and heavy machine guns, instantly forming a simple defense line.
If they were facing an elite troop, they might not be able to resist.
However, they were facing a group of terrified soldiers!
At the same time, the powerful firepower also made up for many of the shortcomings of the defense line.
"Dong dong dong! Da da!"
Mortars and heavy machine guns soon began to attack.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The lances in the cavalrymen's hands also began to shoot.
With their escape route cut off, Grand Duke Nicholas 'cavalry quickly fell into despair. Many people didn't know what to do.
As for Grand Duke Nikolay and the others, they had reacted early. Under the protection of the guards, they had rushed out of the encirclement of Grand Duke Michael's cavalry and fled back to Mosk.
