In this great war between the Russian Empire and the Eastern Empire, the real key role in this depends on the navy. This is also Mikhail's plan all along.

Before the navy defeated the Imperial Navy of the East, the Russian Imperial Army only needed to hold the defensive line and limit the battlefield to the Goryeo Peninsula and the Liaodong Peninsula. In this way, the Russian army can hold the defensive line with relatively few troops. And on the battlefield, the powerful firepower advantage of the Russian army can be brought into full play, constantly consuming the living strength of the Orientals.

Even if the Eastern Empire had sufficient reserve forces, it could mobilize a large number of troops to participate in the frontline battlefield. But these are living lives!

It was consumed on the battlefield in this way, and the losses caused to the Eastern Empire were naturally predictable.

What's more, after the living forces of the Eastern Empire were eliminated in large numbers, perhaps it would be relatively easier for the Tsarist Empire to attack the mainland of the Eastern Empire in the future.

That's right, Mikhail's appetite is not only to defeat the Oriental Empire in this war, but also to attack the Oriental Empire itself.

Honshu Island and Kyushu Island 377 are also counted, and have a large population. With the current strength of the Russian Empire, it would be almost impossible to capture these two important islands. However, the island of Hokkaido can still think about it. The current island of Hokkaido is sparsely populated. The entire island of Hokkaido is only about one million people. Compared to the total population of the Eastern Empire, it is nothing at all. You know, the total population of the Eastern Empire has reached 44 million. The population of Hokkaido Island is less than half of the total population of Orientals.

The main population of the Eastern Empire was concentrated on the islands of Honshu and Kyushu, so that once the Russian Imperial Navy won a naval battle, it could launch an attack on the mainland of the Eastern Empire. Then take the opportunity to blockade the island of Hokkaido, land by marines and army, occupy the entire island of Hokkaido, become an important base for the Russian Empire in the Far East, and will also be a bridgehead for the Russian Empire to contain the Eastern Empire.

Before the victory of the Russian Imperial Navy, the Russian Army only needed to stabilize the battle line. At least from the current situation, the Russian army is quite good non-(dbec).

"How many reserves do we have on the battlefield?" Mikhail asked.

"Your Majesty, the 56th Infantry Division of the 5th Army has arrived in Shenyang. In addition, the 57th Infantry Division, the 58th Infantry Division, the 59th Infantry Division and the 60th Infantry Division are also arriving. Admiral Brusilov replied.

Mikhail nodded: "Let the 56th Infantry Division go to the Goryeo Peninsula to assist the troops stationed on the peninsula." The Orientals had a great superiority in forces on the Goryeo Peninsula. Although the Imperial Army has strong firepower, it is undoubtedly very difficult to face the interspersed detours of small forces of the Orientals. Reinforcement of an infantry division also facilitated the defense of the Imperial Army on the Goryeo Peninsula. "

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Admiral Brusilov answered.

In this way, there are only four reserves left on the battlefield. However, it should be enough for the time being.

"Your Majesty, the intelligence department sent a telegram, according to the information obtained so far, the Eastern Empire is frantically mobilizing, and hundreds of thousands of reservists from up to seventeen infantry divisions are distributing weapons and equipment and conducting adaptive training. These troops, perhaps, will appear on the battlefield in a very short time. Admiral Brusilov was a little worried.

At present, the troops put into the battlefield by the Russian Empire have reached 16 infantry divisions, two cavalry brigades and two heavy artillery brigades. The Eastern Army, on the other hand, invested 17 infantry divisions, two cavalry brigades and two field heavy artillery brigades.

In terms of military strength, the Eastern Imperial Army had a great advantage. However, under the powerful fire blows of the Russian army, they paid great losses, but they did not take advantage of it at all.

This makes the situation on the battlefield very favorable for the Russian army.

"The Oriental people want to give full play to their superiority in forces to make up for the gap with us in terms of firepower, so that they can defeat us." Mikhail said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Oriental people should have planned so." Admiral Brusilov answered.

"In this way, order the troops deployed in Europe to send troops to reinforce the Far East." There are 3 heavy artillery brigades left directly under the General Staff, all transferred to the Far East. In addition, three more cavalry brigades were sent to reinforce the Far Eastern battlefield. There were ten cavalry brigades left, which was enough to stabilize the situation in Central Asia. Each group army should also transfer a certain number of troops. Let the commander of the 1st Army, General Gurko, draw 4 infantry divisions from the 1st Army, 3 infantry divisions from the 2nd Army, and one infantry division each from the 3rd Army, 4th Army and 7th Army to reinforce the Far East. In this way, we will soon be able to get reinforcements from ten infantry divisions, three cavalry brigades and three heavy artillery brigades. Together with the remaining 4 infantry divisions on the front line, we also have in our hands a reserve of fourteen infantry divisions, three cavalry brigades and three heavy artillery brigades. Even if the Orientals sent all seventeen mobilized infantry divisions to the battlefield, we could do it. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

At the very least, there is no problem at all in keeping the front stable. As long as everything persists until the navy side wins, the whole battle situation will be clear. We can move on to the next step. "

In the case that the Oriental people are about to increase their troops, the Russian Empire naturally cannot be intimidated, and directly mobilize more troops from the European region to reinforce the battlefield.

"Yes, Your Majesty! However, the scale of mobilization of Orientals may be larger than we expected. It is said that the Oriental people have begun to further recruit young adults who have served in the army. It is expected that they will again mobilize dozens of infantry divisions. Admiral Brusilov said.

Mikhail is not surprised by this, this is the style of the Oriental!

"Let the Orientals mobilize, the strength of the Imperial Army in Europe is still sufficient. If necessary, we can again send ten infantry divisions from Europe to reinforce the Far East. If that wasn't enough, it's still too late to mobilize again. The fleet of the Imperial Navy, on its way. When they arrived, everything would be fine. Mikhail said.

Mikhail pinned his hopes on the Navy.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Admiral Brusilov replied.
