Over the next few days, the military deployment of the Russian Empire gradually became blurred and clear as coalition cavalry units encountered Cossack cavalry units on the Alma Heights, the Kacha River, and near Yevpatoria.

In fact, as Jerome Bonaparte and others guessed, the ambitious Gorchakov not only wanted to attack Sevastopol, but also had a large-scale army near Yevpatoria. 's troops.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was sitting in the Sevastopol fortress, immediately issued an order to drop 5,000 French soldiers into the small town of Yevpatoria.

Today, the town of Yevpatoria has 10,000 troops and thirty-six artillery pieces (twelve 12-pound Napoleons and twenty-four 6-pound Napoleons), and in Yevpato An arc-shaped trench was also built around the town of Ria, and the periphery of the trench was covered with barbed wire. If the army of the Russian Empire tried to smash the barbed wire with its own artillery, then the fleet in Yevpatoria port would be destroyed. Artillery would be their nightmare.

After finishing all this, Jerome Bonaparte felt that it was not finished, and built many small bastions around Mount Inkerman. The bastions were connected with each other by trenches. There is a heavy artillery in the bastion, which is simply a veritable turtle shell.

And the time it takes to build such a huge project will not be about four days.

Of course, Alexander II of Bakhchisaray, tens of kilometers away, would not know these things.

At this moment, he is standing at the gate of Bakhchisaray with Marshal Gorchakov and Marshal Yomini, watching the road in the distance, so that he can see his younger brother Mikhail Niku for the first time. Lajevic.

It is necessary to briefly introduce here, Mikhail Nikolaevich, born in 1832, is the youngest son of Nicholas I, and his purpose of coming to Crimea this time is to supervise the Russian Empire army fight.

Time passed minute by minute in the long wait, and the time soon came to noon. A group of vague figures appeared in the distance, and gradually walked towards the direction of Bakhchisaray.

"Telescope!" Alexander II, who was looking at the figure in the distance, stretched out his hand and said to Gorchakov beside him.

Gorchakov hurriedly handed the monocular to Alexander II, and through the monocular, Alexander II could clearly see the figure walking towards them in the distance.

That's right, this figure is Archduke Mikhail and his entourage.

Alexander II put down the telescope and said to Gorchakov: "Play music!"

"Play music!" Gorchakov shouted loudly, and the band standing behind him played the high-pitched and majestic court music.

Mikhail Gorchakov, who was riding a horse in the distance, heard the music from Bakhchisaray, turned his head and pointed to the city of Bakhchisaray in the distance to the guard battalion responsible for protecting him. Chang said briskly: "I bet you! This is definitely my elder brother's idea!"

The guard camp on the side showed a clear look, and praised the deep relationship between Grand Duke Mikhail and Crown Prince Alexander.

"That's right! The two of us have a very deep relationship!" The corner of Duke Mihai's mouth showed a smile that he didn't know whether to laugh at himself or be gratified.

"His Royal Highness!" Mikhail Nikolaevich, who got off the warhorse, bowed to Alexander II, who was in charge of welcoming him, to show his respect.

"Mikhail, you have come!" Alexander II smiled and nodded, then took Mikhail Nikolaevich's hand and said enthusiastically: "If you don't come again, I will send People are looking for you along this road!"

"Thank you for your concern!" Mikhail Nikolaevich still responded to Alexander II with a humble attitude.

"Mikhail, tell me... Father... No, how is His Majesty Emperor Nicholas I's recent physical condition?" Alexander II, who had just sat down, turned to ask Mikhail.

"His Majesty Nicholas is in good health!" Grand Duke Mikhail said to Alexander II

"That's it! Then I'm relieved!" Alexander II breathed a sigh of relief. He was still very worried about the safety of Nikolai when he was far away in Crimea.

"However, Your Majesty asked me to inform you that your mission in Crimea has ended, and you can now return to St. Petersburg!" Grand Duke Mikhail replied to Alexander II.

"Go back?" Alexander II shouted in surprise, he shook his head and said firmly to Mikhail: "No, I can't go back like this! If we go back now, our army is likely to have big problems! "

"Big question? What's going on?" Mikhail Nikolaevich glanced at Alexander II in confusion, and then at Gorchakov.

"Is such that!"

Commander Gorchakov told Grand Duke Mikhail that due to the fact that the Russian Imperial Army has not been able to cheer up recently, Alexander II had to send people to the military to promote the Crown Prince to stand with them.

"Brother, I'm just a messager! The one who really decides whether you stay or stay is our father!" Archduke Mikhail shrugged and said helplessly.

"I will explain this to His Majesty the Emperor!" Alexander II nodded, and then asked, "Since His Majesty the Emperor ordered you to come to Crimea to supervise the war, how much do you know about the situation in Crimea? ."

"Crimea?" Grand Duke Mikhail thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "After I received the appointment of His Majesty the Emperor, I rushed over without stopping!"

"let me tell you!"

Alexander II told Grand Duke Mikhail the many problems faced by the Russian Empire in the Crimean Peninsula one by one, and Grand Duke Mikhail's expression changed from being indifferent before to being shocked.

"Brother, are you sure you are talking about our army?" Archduke Mikhail didn't believe what Alexander II said. His father clearly told him that the Russian Empire's army in Crimea had no problem at all, it was just that Because his older brother Alexander was a little weak and unwilling to sacrifice some necessary costs to achieve victory.

That's why Nicholas I sent him to Crimea to replace his brother.

"I can assure you that every word I say is the truth about the imperial army!" emphasized Alexander II.

"Then why are we fighting against them here, isn't this a free death?" Mikhail said to Alexander II in a low voice.

"Father... No, His Majesty the Emperor, this is a desperate attempt!" Mikhail responded to Alexander II.
