In the face of the fierce attack of the Russian Imperial Army, the Ottoman Imperial Army could not bear it at all.

Their soldiers, whether in terms of weapons and equipment, combat literacy, or will to fight, could not compare with the soldiers of the Tsarist Empire.

So that in the face of such a difficult situation, how could they resist it!

Under the fierce attack of the Tsarist Imperial Army, the defense line of the Ottoman Imperial Army was in jeopardy, and it was soon in danger of being broken through~.

The commander of the 1st Army of the Ottoman Army, General Arslan, had racked his brains and tried his best. However, it was still impossible to maintain the defensive line. In the face of the fierce offensive of the army of the Tsarist Empire, he was already incompetent - powerless.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty the Sultan has asked us to do our utmost to resist the attack of the Russian Empire. But we can't resist it now! The casualties on the front line were so large that they were almost unable to hold on. A general said with a dejected face.

Admiral Arslan nodded, and he was now in a state of distress.

The Russian Imperial Army attacked from multiple directions, and the defending Ottoman Army had to face heavy artillery fire and strong offensive firepower of the Russian Imperial Army.

It can be said that this is definitely the most powerful enemy that the Ottoman Empire has encountered in all these years.

Even twenty years ago, when they went to war with the Russian Empire, they still lost. However, the Russian Empire is definitely not so strong, not so powerful!

But now, the performance of the Tsarist Imperial Army on the battlefield has completely blinded the eyes of the generals of the Ottoman Army. It can be said that from the very beginning of the war, they were pressed and beaten and were completely at a disadvantage. Even if it was reinforced and its strength was greatly improved, it was still not the object of the Tsarist Imperial Army.

"Order the front-line troops to resist the Russians. Behind us, is our territory, absolutely not for the Russians to take away our land! Arslan said through gritted teeth.

The Ottoman Empire has lost too much territory in modern times. Now, only Rumilia remains in Europe. If it were occupied by the Russians, you can imagine how big a blow it would have been to the Ottoman Empire.

"Yes, Your Excellency, General!" The general replied.

However, whether they can withstand the attack of the Tsarist Imperial Army is still very difficult to say. Or rather, the chances of success will be very, very small.

"Ula! Ulla! "

The soldiers of the Russian Imperial Army, shouting slogans and supported by their own strong firepower, launched a fierce attack on the defense line of the Ottoman Army.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "

As the soldiers advanced, the Mosin-Nagant rifles in their hands were also constantly firing.

Bullets whizzed over the heads of the Ottoman soldiers, leaving them to shrink inside the broken trenches.

But soon, countless grenades flew and smashed on the positions of the Ottomans.

Many grenades fell into the trenches, turning those who blew up the Ottoman soldiers on their backs, blurring their flesh and blood.

The Russian soldiers, taking this opportunity, stormed the trenches of the Ottoman Army.

After a fierce battle, the Ottoman soldiers in this section of the position were either killed or surrendered. The positions also fell into the hands of the Russian soldiers.

Subsequently, more troops of the Russian Empire poured into the position and began to expand to both wings.

Soon, the Ottoman soldiers' defense line was broken, and a large number of Ottoman soldiers began to flee.

Plovdiv, headquarters of the 1st Army of the Imperial Russian Army.

The commander of the army group, General Gurko, and the chief of staff, Major General Croix, were directing the army into battle.

"Your Excellency Commander, the 1st Infantry Division, the 2nd Infantry Division, the 3rd Infantry Division and the 4th Infantry Division have broken through the Ottoman line at Svillenag and are attacking Edirne. The 5th Infantry Division, the 6th Infantry Division, the 7th Infantry Division, the 61st Infantry Division and the 62nd Infantry Division met them from the east.

The Ottomans gathered quite a few troops in Edirne. This city, the capital of the Rumilia region, is the most important city of the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans, and they will definitely hold on to this city. "

Major General Croix pointed to the battle map hanging on the wall and analyzed the current battle situation. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

Admiral Gurko nodded repeatedly: "Order these 9 infantry divisions on the front line to storm Edirne and take this place in the shortest possible time." Several other infantry divisions continued their assault to the south. Especially the cavalry units, to exert their speed and hit Istanbul directly! "

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Croix replied.

The military operation of the Russian Imperial Army this time has a very clear goal, that is, to seize the entire Rumilia.

Then, naturally, the army of the Russian Empire would have to advance all the way south, all the way to the Aegean Sea and the Dardanelles, the Sea of Marmara and the Bosphorus.

In this way, the control of the Russian Empire over this land can be ensured.

Under the orders of General Gurko, the Russian Imperial Army continued its fierce offensive.

The nearly 200,000 Ottoman troops stationed in Edirne were besieged.

Although these Ottoman soldiers also showed great courage, determined to do their best to hold the most important cities of the Ottoman Empire in Europe.

However, in the face of the heavy shelling of hundreds of artillery pieces of the Russian Empire, the defenders in the city still suffered heavy losses. At the same time, the entire city was almost in ruins.

In just a week, Edirne was defeated by the Russian Imperial Army.

Some of the Ottoman soldiers stationed here died in battle, and most surrendered to the Russian Empire.

At the same time, other units of the Russian Imperial Army were also rushing forward.

In particular, several cavalry brigades are not far from Istanbul.

Although the Ottoman Army mobilized a large number of troops in an attempt to stop the attack of the Russian Imperial Army.

However, many of these newly mobilized troops were farmers or herders not long ago, and they were not even fully equipped with weapons and equipment, let alone combat effectiveness.

What kind of results such a force will have in the face of the elite troops of the Tsarist Imperial Army, it is natural to imagine.

The Russian Imperial Army almost won a devastating victory.

The Ottoman Army was on the verge of collapse on the battlefield in Rumelia. Soon, all of Rumilia will fall into the control of the Russian Empire and become a new territory of the Russian Empire.
