The army of Grand Duke Mikhail, marching from Kazan to Mosk.
From Kazan to Mosk, there is a railway connection.
This made Grand Duke Mikhail’s army, directly requisitioning railways, using railways to transport troops.
In this way, hundreds of thousands of troops will be able to reach Mosk from Kazan in a few days.
Similarly, Grand Duke Nikolai was mobilizing troops to advance towards Mosk. A large number of troops took the train and advanced towards Mosk.
Because Grand Duke Mikhail is a little further from Mosk.
Therefore, when Grand Duke Mikhail’s army arrived on the outskirts of Mosk, Grand Duke Nikolai had already led his army into the city of Mosk. The whole of Mosk is already under the control of Grand Duke Nikolai.
On the afternoon of May 14, 15 infantry divisions and ten cavalry brigades under Grand Duke Mikhail gathered in the Noginsk area east of Mosk. Given that Mosk had fallen into the hands of Grand Duke Nikolai, Grand Duke Mikhail did not order to continue advancing westward, but to deploy on the spot in this generation area.
“Your Excellency, Grand Duke Nikolai’s army has taken the lead and has already taken control of Mosk. If he holds the city of Mosk, then we will have to prepare for urban street fighting. In this case, I am afraid it will take more time and pay more losses!” Lieutenant General Brusilov frowned tightly.
Since ancient times, urban street battles have been the most brutal. Moreover, it will be very unfavorable for the attacking side.
The defending side can use the streets and other buildings in the city to arm the defense and block the attacking side.
The attacking side needs to fight with the defending side little by little to seize the city.
Moreover, the firepower advantage will be greatly reduced in street battles. This undoubtedly further weakened the superiority of Grand Duke Mikhail’s army.
Don’t forget, he has an absolute superiority in troops, and he doesn’t want this war to drag on. In that case, it would also be very detrimental to him. After all, I am the rightful first in line to the throne!” Grand Duke Mikhail shook his head.
“Besides, Grand Duke Nikolai doesn’t want the city of Mosk to be destroyed in the war. In that case, the damage to the Russian Empire would have been even greater. Grand Duke Mikhail continued.
Lieutenant General Brusilov nodded repeatedly, thinking that Grand Duke Mikhail’s words were very reasonable.
“Send a letter to Grand Duke Nikolai, inviting him to fight a decisive battle outside the city. Tell him that we will decide the victory or defeat through this battle. If I win, then I will inherit the throne and become the tsar of the Russian Empire. If he wins, I will surrender my military power and no longer oppose the succession of Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna to the throne!
“Yes, Your Excellency, Grand Duke!” replied Lieutenant General Bruchlov.
Subsequently, Grand Duke Mikhail’s messenger went to Mosk and delivered his letter to Grand Duke Nikolai.
Being able to occupy Mosk before Grand Duke Mikhail made Grand Duke Nikolai very proud.
In his opinion, he not only has a huge superiority in forces. At the same time, it also has a strong castle in hand. It can be said that he already has a very big advantage in this battle. In this battle, he is in control.
After receiving Grand Duke Mikhail’s letter, Grand Duke Nikolai did not take Grand Duke Mikhail seriously.
“Your Excellency, are we going to accept Grand Duke Mikhail’s challenge?” asked Grand Duke Agrini.
Mikhail is just a little brat. He actually wants to start a decisive battle with us, it is simply daring!
However, it is naturally best to be able to determine the victory in a battle without destroying Mosk, in this way, it can also not cause greater losses to the empire, and the war can be ended in the shortest possible time. ”
Grand Duke Nikolai looked contemptuous.
“Tell Mikheil that in three days we will have a decisive battle on the eastern outskirts of Mosk. Hopefully, he won’t be scared of fart urine. If he is afraid, as long as he is willing to surrender, I can guarantee his life!” ordered Grand Duke Nikolai.
“Yes, Your Excellency,” replied both Grand Duke Agliny, and General Miloraf.
“Let our army hurry up and rest. Be sure to win the next big battle!” said Grand Duke Nikolai with a smile on his face.
“Yes, Your Excellency!” Grand Duke Agreni and General Miloraf were naturally well aware of the importance of this battle.
Grand Duke Nikolai agreed to a decisive battle outside the city of Mosk, much to the satisfaction of Grand Duke Mikhail. He also believes that this time the victory is in hand.
Soon, his army was able to crush the army of Grand Duke Nicholas and win the battle. Thus clearing all obstacles for him to ascend to the Tsar’s throne!
