Struggle in Russia

Vol 3 Chapter 588: Not united

"Struggle in Tsarist Russia (

The rebels in Kararash are divided into two factions. One faction advocates fleeing immediately, taking as many materials as possible, and must not head-on with the Russian army. Because they had already realized that there was still a big gap between the combat power of the frontal combatants, and they weren't opponents at all.

However, another group of rebel leaders headed by the Moldavian nobles believed that Kararash’s geographical location was extremely important, and it was an important traffic throat. Once it fell, it would mean that Stratheny would be exposed to the Russian army. , Once Strachene loses, then the siege of Chisinau will not attack and resolve itself, then the situation will be completely reversed.

Of course, these are actually excuses. The reason why this group of people opposed to retreating immediately and running away was simple. Their wealth and a large amount of supplies were all piled up in the city. If they fell into the hands of the Russian army, nothing would be left.

Why did they fight their lives to rebel? It is not to protect their own interests. Now that the interests are about to be lost, how can they accept it!

"We must transfer the supplies away. You have seen the Russians' new approach. These foods are extremely important to us, otherwise we won't be able to survive the winter in the second half of the year!"

"Hungry, let alone fight against Russia!"

No one wanted to go hungry. Eventually, the rebels reached a consensus, seeking help from the main force in Strasséné, and setting up defenses on the spot to resist the Russian attack.

And this is exactly what Dmitry wants to see most, why did Grand Duke Constantine always fail to put down the rebellion before, and it is not that there is no way to eliminate the viable force of the rebels.

The reason why he had done so many tricks before was not because he forced the rebels to fight him decisively. Even if the rebels in Karalash are only 7,000 "small units", you must know that Konstantin has rebelled for more than half a year and has not eliminated 7,000 rebels, or even 1,000 rebels. die.

If 7,000 rebels can be eliminated in the First World War, it will be a major blow to the rebels, which will greatly boost morale, and it will also be able to initially reverse the passivity of the Grand Duke Constantine, allowing him at least an explanation to St. Petersburg.

So did the battle go smoothly?

It must be said that it was a bit beyond Dmitry's expectation that the rebels were really just a mob. They were still using old-fashioned flintlock muskets and lacked heavy firepower and they were defeated by Dmitry.

They ran in a mess, running so fast. If Dmitry hadn't decisively ordered the cavalry to chase after him, the seven thousand people would have to run away more than half.

From launching the attack to ending the battle, Dmitry only took two hours. In this battle, he not only recovered Kararash, but also killed and wounded more than 3,000 rebels and captured more than 2,000 people. More than a thousand quick-legged rebels escaped.

But this is enough for Dmitry. Many of these thousands of mobs have lost their guns, and they can't make any waves.

Dmitry didn't chase them very much. After driving them away, he went directly to the city to rectify the order. First, naturally, the warehouse was closed and the materials were counted, and then the previous set was followed. The wartime rationing system and the collection of weapons were two-pronged.

Anyone who dared to speak against the tune was directly hanged on the Municipal Square. Even after Dmitry entered the city, he first hanged a group of Moldavian nobles on the grounds that they were involved in the rebels.

Anyway, he used iron and blood to tell the Moldavians, if you don't listen to him, then go to die!

Karalash fought a big victory here, but the main rebel forces in Strassée were dumbfounded. According to their plan, they were preparing to concentrate their forces and break the wrist with Grand Duke Constantine.

Because according to their estimates, as long as the enemy can be eliminated in one fell swoop, Chisinau would be an empty city without defense. As long as Chisinau can be taken, it will basically herald the victory of this "uprising".

At that time, Grand Duke Constantine was no longer able to do anything. He only had to drive away the prince, and then secretly contacted Count Uvarov, and he would come forward to do work for Nicholas I and make good things. You can enter the negotiation mode.

Not to mention any conditions can be mentioned, but the status quo in Russia must make concessions to them, and Moldavia will not be their masters by then.

Therefore, this time the rebels are planning to fight Constantine. They hit the maximum force and assembled a huge army of six to seven thousand people. It can be said that all the troops that can be transferred have been transferred.

It’s just that they waited and waited. The volunteer army of Constantine always thundered and the rain was light. After three or four days of walking, they didn’t see it coming to Strachene. At that time, they laughed and said that Constantine’s army was It's getting worse and worse, and now it's a group of frightened birds that are scared, otherwise this road will take so long.

But before they were happy, Kararash was in a hurry and was dumbfounded to learn that Dmitry suddenly attacked the Kararash rebels. UU reading www.uukanshu.com, they just remembered a little at this time-are we fooled?

Naturally, it was certain. The rebels who reacted were immediately caught up in a quarrel. There was no way. Who made this group of people was pieced together by the Moldavian aristocrats. There were too many interests in the hills and they were not completely consistent.

In difficult times, you can still stand up to Duke Constantine with one heart, but once the situation improves and when you wait to reap the benefits, everyone has different ideas, and no one wants to make sacrifices, and hopes to take advantage.

As a result, some of the rebels advocated simply ignoring Kararash and eliminating the volunteer army of Archduke Constantine in accordance with the original plan. As long as the Volunteer Chisinau is eliminated, victory is in sight, so if Kararash is lost, it will be lost. What a big deal!

However, there are not a few who disagree. Someone immediately said that it would take time to destroy Archduke Constantine’s troops and capture Chisinau. In case they were stalemate with Archduke Constantine, Dmitry killed him from behind. How to do?

Wasn't it the enemy at that time? Don't you have any compelling numbers on your own strength, and you really think you can resist the Russian army?

The two factions were arguing dimly, and the third faction came forward again. Their opinion is that since they are still fooled this time, it is better to stop the loss appropriately and neither fight the idea of ​​Duke Constantine nor save Carla. Rash, continue to follow the previous routine or continue to fight guerrillas, he does not believe that the Russians will not die.

This faction immediately stabbed the hornet's nest, and the previous two factions immediately stood up and sprayed them. The reason is very simple: now and then, before the Grand Duke Constantine, their guerrilla warfare was not able to do much, but Dmitry was not. Look at what happened in these two months. Wartime rationing system, then they really don’t have fun, okay!
