Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar

In May, the Volga River has entered a period of abundant water due to the melting of ice and snow upstream.

Merchant ships laden with soldiers and weapons and equipment, escorted by gunboats, went upstream.

Archduke Mikhail was preparing for this day two years ago. Gunboats and merchant ships were built exclusively in shipyards on the Volgograd and Caspian coasts.

By water transport, it was possible to transport his troops to the northern regions in the shortest possible time. From Kazan to Mosk, it is much closer than to go overland from Volgograd to Mosk.

Although, Grand Duke Mikhail did not want a civil war to break out in the Russian Empire, which would seriously deplete the strength of the Russian Empire.

But at this point, there is no other option.

He only hoped that he would win the war in the shortest possible time and seize the supreme rule of the Russian Empire. In this way, the losses are also minimized.

"Your Excellency, the 1st Infantry Division and the 2nd Infantry Division are the vanguard, and the subsequent troops will also board and set off one after another. In addition, the cavalry units have already set out, and they will go north along the Volga River to protect us. It is expected that in five days we will be able to reach Kazan! Lieutenant General Brusilov reported.

Grand Duke Mikhail nodded: "We are going to capture Mosk as quickly as possible." Although, the current capital of the empire is Petersburg. However, Mosk was also the most important city of the empire. Grand Duke Nikolai will definitely not watch us take Mosk. It would be better if he led his army in a decisive battle with us in Mosk. "

Grand Duke Mikhail had great confidence in his army.

If the two sides fight a decisive battle at Mosk, their odds of victory will be very high.

At that time, it will be able to crush the army of Grand Duke Nicholas in one fell swoop and win this battle.

Lieutenant General Brusilov also nodded repeatedly: "Although His Excellency Grand Duke Nikolai has been a horse all his life, he is very good at fighting. However, in the face of absolute strength, any tactics are in vain. We will definitely be able to defeat them head-on! "

The current Russian army, the equipment is very bad. Not only the lack of artillery, even the Maximin heavy machine guns were not equipped much, let alone light ones. Only a prescient person like Grand Duke Mikhail will increase the firepower of the troops as much as possible in order to further strengthen the combat effectiveness of the troops.

In the minds of many generals of the Russian army, the lives of ordinary soldiers are not important at all, like cannon fodder.

Anyway, the Russian Empire had a large number of serfs, even if those low-level soldiers died, they could easily recruit enough soldiers.

On the contrary, Grand Duke Mikhail cared more about the lives of his soldiers.

He has also been instilling in his troops the idea that the enemy that can be solved with shells will never let the soldiers desperate.

This concept also made Grand Duke Mikhail further win the love and support of the soldiers.

Grand Duke Mikhail led an army of hundreds of thousands and marched to Petersburg.

Such a violent reaction further stimulated the situation in the Russian Empire.

Although, many people sympathized with Grand Duke Mikhail and believed that the cabinet's actions were stealing Grand Duke Mikhail's throne. However, Grand Duke Mikhail's direct military action undoubtedly plunged the Russian Empire into a terrible civil war.

This led many people to start accusing Grand Duke Mikhail.

The cabinet and Grand Duke Nicholas also jumped out, although they could not provide real evidence, but claimed that Grand Duke Mikhail was very suspected of committing crimes, and that he had killed Nicholas II and wanted to seize the throne.

Even if this is just speculation without evidence, there are still many people in the Russian Empire who choose to believe it.

After all, in the current Russian Empire, all kinds of conspiracy theories are in full swing.

In this regard, Grand Duke Mikhail did not care at all. He was well aware that history was written by the victors. As long as he can win the war, then everything will be up to him.

In fact, in the Russian Empire, military coups and the like were not uncommon.

Didn't Catherine the Great, also through a coup d'état, killed her husband and became the female tsar of the Russian Empire, and has always been respected by posterity?

Petersburg, Chancellery.

Prime Minister Plevi of the Tsarist Empire, Finance Minister Sergeevit and Grand Duke Nicholas were meeting in secret.

Grand Duke Mikhail led his army north, which made the Russian Empire already de facto civil war. It also put the top cabinet of the Tsarist Empire under great pressure.

"Your Excellency, Grand Duke Mikhail is treason, this is a rebellion. We must suppress him in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, the situation will be even more unfavorable for the empire. The sun never sets, but people have always been watching us. Even if you don't get it right, the Germans will fall into the hole! Prime Minister Previ's face was full of worry.

The current Russian Empire is in the midst of internal and external troubles. The death of Nicholas II and the outbreak of civil war left the Russian Empire in turmoil. And the Sun Never Sets Empire is even more blockading them.

If this continues, I am afraid that the Russian Empire will encounter a great crisis.
