Obituary:
Peter III had been frail since childhood. He accidentally ate oysters at Oranienbaum's banquet, causing indigestion and eventually died at the age of...
Currently, the wife of Peter III, Her Highness Sophia Ekaterina Alekevna, is the temporary emperor of Russia.
…
Before arriving in St. Petersburg, Naresh received a notice from Peter III's death and Sophia's accession to the throne.
Although the obituary said so, he got the information from it.
But Naresh knew very well that the death of Peter III was not that simple, and was probably even planned by Sophia and her colleagues.
But this is no longer important, Sophia has temporarily replaced the Tsar.
And the first order he received now from this trusting tsar was to withdraw his troops.
Naresh was finally relieved when he saw the order given to him, which simply said "withdrawal".
He let out a deep breath.
After being messed up like this by Peter III, their diplomacy with Tsarist Russia completely collapsed.
Their relations with the countries in the anti-Prussian alliance basically collapsed, and because of Peter III, their die-hard ally Denmark almost became a mortal enemy.
Their tributary country, Sweden, was originally one of the main forces attacking Prussia, and now it has also made peace with Frederick II.
He also withdrew from the battlefield.
Although Sophia was replaced, the anti-Prussian alliance will never accept the return of Tsarist Russia.
After all, no one wants to cooperate with a regime that is repeatedly unstable.
The current situation in Austria is a lesson from the past.
Naresh did not stay too long after receiving the order to withdraw his troops. He immediately went to Prussia to withdraw from the next battle.
Withdrawing troops now is the best option for Tsarist Russia.
…
At this time, the troops led by Frederick II also stopped advancing towards Berlin.
After the peace talks with him, Sweden chose to withdraw its troops. So far, the danger to the north of Prussia was gone.
In this case, they will have enough troops to return to defend Berlin City.
After the previous Russian-Austrian coalition forces stayed in the empty city of Berlin for more than ten days, they finally chose to withdraw their troops.
The Austrian troops, who were fighting alone, retreated to Silisili, which was the main focus of their struggle.
Now the crisis in the city of Berlin has been resolved dramatically by the blessing of luck. So far, the only threat to Prussia is the Austrian troops in Silesili.
This will be the location of the final decisive battle!
Frederick II received news that Marshal Naresh was about to withdraw the Russian troops.
His heart moved slightly and he decided to have a secret negotiation with the marshal who had dealt with him countless times.
He invited Marshal Naresh.
"Dear Marshal, although our two countries were once hostile, now that you have chosen to withdraw your troops, you might as well choose to maximize the interests of Tsarist Russia."
Naresh sneered: "Frederick, although I am negotiating with you, I hope you understand that our troops in Tsarist Russia will not help the enemy!"
Frederick II cracked the corner of his mouth, knocked on the table and said calmly: "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests."
"Marshal, I don't know what happened in Tsarist Russia, but it can be seen that you did not seize this opportunity."
"Since your Tsarist Russia has ended the war with Prussia, why can't we have a good talk?"
"After all, after the war, we may still cooperate before, maybe."
Naresh watched Frederick II's finger inadvertently land on a location on the map on the table, and Naresh raised his eyes.
"Although this place has been divided, you have not yet annexed it. I think the general understands what I mean."
Naresh frowned and looked into Frederick II's eyes, reading his confidence.
The place where Frederick II's finger fell was Poland, which was divided by them at the beginning of the war.
And above Poland, there is a port that Tsarist Russia has always dreamed of.
Although Poland is divided, if all countries sign a contract after the war, Poland's destination may not be what it will be.
Naresh spread his hands and said: "What ability do you have to ensure that the territory here will belong to Tsarist Russia."
Frederick II chuckled and said: "I can assure you that Long Yan will not interfere in this matter, but you will have to pay a certain price. Believe me, we, Prussia, also have territory in Poland now."
"The Crown of Poland will recognize the extent of your lands."
"As long as you help me get Silesia, I will help you get the Polish port."
"Marshal, this is a huge credit to you, enough to make up for the opportunity you missed."
Naresh tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously. After careful consideration, he looked up at Frederick II and said calmly: "You have convinced me. Tell me what you want me to help you with."
"But I must tell you, Tsarist Russia's troops will never help you fight!"
Frederick II smiled and said: "Don't worry, I only need the Russian troops to stay in Prussia for three days, and that is enough."
…
Austrian army commander on the battlefield in Silesia.
Marshal Victor came to the front from the rear and personally supervised the battle.
He originally wanted to have a quick battle with Frederick II and end this battle as soon as possible. However, what he did not expect was that the Russian troops did not withdraw.
Still lingering on the battlefield.
Marshal Victor continued to stand still and did not dare to mobilize troops easily, in case the Russian army cooperated with the Prussian army to attack their Austrian army.
The Austrian army will be in an extremely difficult position.
And his idea played exactly into Frederick II's mind.
The Prussian troops were given time to mobilize their troops. In just three days, Frederick II mobilized his own troops from various places in Prussia to Silesili.
In this way, we prepare for a decisive battle with Austria, and finally decide the final ownership of Silesia.
Three days later, Marshal Naresh left with reinforcements. Only then did Victor realize that he had been careless.
But it was too late now. He had to use the fastest speed to go to the valley south of the Austrian Fortress, hoping to support this valley and weaken his disadvantage.
The battle line has since changed to face northwest.
After Frederick II learned the news, he immediately mobilized his troops and lined up in front of the Austrian troops to confront them.
But there was no exchange of fire between the two sides.
Because both sides knew that once there was an exchange of fire, the troops would be contained. Such a confrontation only gave the other side an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Unable to bear it, Frederick II did not want to give up the good situation, so he chose to take the lead.
But from a limited area held by the Austrian army in the northeast corner, launch a general attack!
General Victor never dreamed that Frederick II would choose to attack from here. The terrain here is steep and easy to defend and difficult to attack. Attacking from here is simply an act of death.
What Marshal Victor did not expect was that Frederick II would attack so quickly.
"Marshal, the northeastern front is almost undefendable!"
"What!"
