บท 188: Chapter 75: The Russians' Counterattack

St. Petersburg

Upon receiving the unexpected declaration of war from the Kingdom of Sardinia, the Tsarist Government was furious. It was one thing for the mighty forces of England, France, and the Ottoman Empire to do so, but the Kingdom of Sardinia? What were they in comparison?

Did they really think Russia had declined to the point where any Tom, Dick, or Harry could come and cause trouble? Furious as they were, due to the vast distance, Russia could do nothing about the People of Sardinian.

Nicholas I let out a cold snort, "Hmph!"

"Order the troops at the front to give the People of Sardinian a good reception, let them know the Russian Empire is not to be insulted!"

"Yes, Your Majesty," the Army Minister quickly responded.

Nobody could have predicted that Nicholas I's order in his anger would become the key to a major Russian military breakthrough, securing a great victory in the future.
