Bulgarian Empire

In contrast, Serbia on the other side is much worse, and Alexander I, who is far away in Belgrade, is sad!

This is just the beginning of the war, and bad news continues to come from the front line! It is clear that his side has a superior force, but the result is always losing battles!

Regarding the rhetoric of the front-line generals, Alexander I was noncommittal, and the Bulgarians are so powerful? With firepower advantage, is it invincible?

Alexander I asked angrily: "Minister of War, how do you explain the successive defeats at the front?"

Named the Minister of War, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. After organizing his thoughts, he said, "Your Majesty, you know: Bulgaria will attack in three directions this time, and our strategic plan is—' Let him go all the way, I only go all the way'!

This time, we chose to destroy their attack on Nis all the way, and take the defensive in other areas, losses are inevitable!

From the current point of view, our strategy is correct. If we divide our troops into three directions and are led by their noses, we will not be able to exert our military advantage!

Although there are small losses on the front line, the main force still exists. As long as General Suborovich can kill the enemy in the Nis area, we will gain an advantage in this war!

So far, General Suborovich has reported to us the situation on the front line. The two lines of defense that the Bulgarians have broken through were originally used to lure the enemy into it!

Even if it is broken ahead of time, it doesn't matter. No matter what, we have more than 200,000 troops in the Nis area, four times that of the enemy. Victory is a matter of time! "

What the Minister of War said before, everyone regarded it as a fart, all to make excuses for failure. Of course, it is during the war, and everyone has no energy to pick on the thorns!

The last sentence is enough to convince everyone that no matter how good the Bulgarian army is, it is impossible to defeat four! There are more than 200,000 Serbian troops, and everyone is still full of confidence to defeat the 50,000 enemy troops!

Of course, Alexander I also knew that if the war hadn't continued, he would have sent all the defeated generals to the military court!

In his opinion, possessing an absolutely superior force, and still losing battles, is either incompetent or greedy for life and fear of death!

Alexander I still clearly remembers that after the defeat of the Pasos War nine years ago, his father, the King of Milan, was forced to abdicate and leave Serbia!

The King of Milan didn't say good things about the military, trash, idiots, and cowards are the words of the Serbian army!

Having superiority in force, superiority in firepower, or a surprise attack, the result was that the regular army did not win against a temporarily recruited motley army!

Alexander I has always been skeptical of the combat effectiveness of the Serbian army. After he took power, he always wanted to carry out military reforms, but unfortunately he was blocked by the military!

Now that the facts are in front of him, the first thing that Alexander I thought of was not how strong the Bulgarian army was, but rather that the lieutenant general was greedy for life and fear of death! The proof is that the battle was defeated and the senior officers are still alive!

Even with the Serbian army, the fact that the weapons and equipment are outdated and the logistical supplies are not in place has been ignored by him!

He glared at the Minister of War and asked again, "Prime Minister, what do you think?"

The prime minister, who was named, was silent for a while and said, "Your Majesty, this issue is very complicated!

If General Suborovich can win a quick victory in the Nis region, then the battle will be big!

On the other hand, if we drag on for a few days and wait for the enemy reinforcements to arrive, our military advantage will no longer exist, and I am afraid it will be difficult at that time!

And the war continues, putting too much pressure on our logistics!

The current domestic inflation is very serious, and the normal life of the people has been affected! We cannot fight a protracted war. With the current war consumption, maybe in two or three months, we will go bankrupt! "

After listening to the Prime Minister's pessimistic forecast,

Alexander I's face became more gloomy, and he said fiercely: "Order to the front-line troops, from now on: those who retreat die, those who surrender die!"

Seeing that everyone wanted to stop it, Alexander I added: "Everyone knows very well that to win this war, we Serbia must work hard!

Any chance of luck will make us lose this war! If so, let's fight! Our army's combat power and firepower are not as good as the enemy's, but we have an advantage in strength!

Then take your life to fill it! Use the crowd tactics to kill them. If you can't do one by one, just use two or three!

In short, we cannot afford to lose this war, and neither can Serbia! "

After that, Alexander I left without looking back, and now he finally starts to regret it! Blindly going to war with Bulgaria, Serbia has no time to prepare for war at all!

If this war is lost, whether Serbia will be finished, I don't know yet; they, these high-ranking government officials, will definitely be finished!

If that's the case, then take your life to fill it! Even if it is a tie, or barely blocked, they will have a way to survive this political crisis! Anyway, the ones who died were untouchables, and these high-ranking officials didn't need to die!

Everyone's eyes met, no one said anything, and then they all turned their attention to the Minister of War! The meaning is obvious. Since the king has ordered it, let it be executed!

After hesitating again and again, finally the Minister of War nodded silently, and then a series of stern telegrams rushed to the front line!

After receiving the telegram, Suborovich's face was pale, and he was about to kill!

After thinking and thinking, after several hesitations, he still decided to execute it! In order to win, I don’t care so much now, even if I get scolded by the soldiers, it’s not good to lose the battle!

"Here's someone, call the colonel and above for a meeting immediately. If you can't come on the front line, let them open the telegram and wait for the news!" Suborovich said with a sigh

In any case, after the battle, he put on the hat of General Butcher!

...

Compared with the illustrious exploits of the Left Army and the Right Army, the Central Army as the main force is now long overdue and has just launched an all-out attack!

It's not that they are incompetent, it's mainly to wipe out the enemies in the area south of the lower South Morava River. If they hit too hard, the enemy won't run away!

The two main regiments of the Guards, borrowed from the Ottoman Empire, interspersed from the Kumanovo area, bypassed the rear of the Serbian army, and cut off the retreat of the Serbian army!

The Central Route Army Headquarters, now everyone is still celebrating the success of this adventure! I don't even know that the Serbs have decided to go all out, the supervising team is already in place, and the soldiers on the front line can't even run!
