00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,The attack front is narrow.

00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,It's not possible to carry out a
maneuver.

00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,The cavalry can't force their
way from flanks - swamps and gullies all

00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,Your Excellency, we have to
launch a frontal attack.

00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,And if we're going to attack,
we should do it without delay.

00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,Until the Turks don't move their
main body.

00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,Good idea if it were not for the
cannons.

00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,The village is two miles from
here.

00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,The Turks will fire one or even
two volleys. We'll lose half of our

00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,But we'll enter the village
and destroy the battery.

00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,People die in a war and
that is what a war means.

00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,Right judgment, Premier Major.

00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,We'll knock down the enemy
through a sudden advance.

00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:50,This is our moment of triumph,
gentlemen. Let's show what we're capable

00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,The Turks have made a mistake.

00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,And we've noticed it,
Grigory Alexandrovich.

00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,They've placed the battery
at the village exit,

00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,but should have left
the road for sallies.

00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,And it means we now should do
what?

00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,Make the battery fire
on friendly positions.

00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,Gentlemen, we've the Field
Marshall's order to conduct reconnaissance.

00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,I propose destroying
the enemy's vanguard,

00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,cross the Danube, and
storm the fortress.

00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,We've 800 sabers and bayonets,
while the Turks have 5000,

00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,and the fortress has
three-thousand garrison.

00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,That doesn't look like
reconnaissance.

00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,We'll win by skill,
not by number.

00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,We'll seize the village by
evening, and the fortress - at night.

00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,We'll break the order.

00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,We will succeed. Success is
never blamed.

00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,And enough of it.

00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,Grigory Alexandrovich, what's
your plan?

00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,I'd rather take ten hussars
and rush towards the battery.

00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:41,It's a suicide.

00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,- The Turks will not open a
fire. - They won't.

00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,They'll be glad to have
information. And they'll try to take you

00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,I'll lure them to follow me, and
you'll attack with the main body.

00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,They'll run homeward and the
battery won't risk firing on their own

00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,And we, by following them,
will assault that river bank.

00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,Command to stand by for an
attack.

00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,Ekaterina II, by sending
Suvorov to the Danube,

00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:10,hoped he will stir those
generals up who g***t stuck in the opposition

00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,and she was right.

00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,In response to complaints
of Field Marshal Rumyantsev

00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,about the shortage Suvorov
exclaimed his famous

00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,«Even weak forces can make great
deeds».

00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,The Russian command planned
combat reconnaissance of the Turtukai

00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,in order to draw the
enemy's attention away

00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,from the Russian troops that
attack in other directions.

00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,Suvorov was not used to being
content with a mute role,

00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,and when he identified a
vulnerable spot in the Turks' defense,

00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,he decided to mount
a sudden attack.

00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:47,The fortress garrison, which was
several times larger than the Russian

00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,turned out to be unprepared for
a daring attack and was defeated.

00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:57,By Suvorov's order, Russian
units had mercy on civilians and Muslim

00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,and after that destroyed
the enemy's fortress

00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,and crossed the river
with captured artillery.

00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,After he suffered battle
concussion, Suvorov sent a message

00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,to the Commander-In-Chief about
a successful sally of his troops.

00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,“Thank God, and thank you!
Turtukai is seized, and I ** there”.

00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:34,For firmness and courage, for
suffering in the Ottoman captivity,

00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,endured with dignity, for

opportunity to see you and speak with you.

joy that was once between us.

00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,Let the final word be mine.

00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,Dear Grigory Alexandrovich,

00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:22,today I've had a dream that I
walked in a strange place.

00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,I met a nice man.

00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,We talked about anything
and everything.

00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,And I felt as cheerful and free
as never before. As never before.

00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,But nothing lasts forever.

00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:46,I woke up. And I had a feeling
as if I lost something very

00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,And suddenly I realized that it
were you, Grigory Alexandrovich.

00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:55,You were that nice man and I
should look for you awake, not in my

00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:01,Now you are far away
fighting with the Turks.

00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:02,I know your bravery and prowess.

00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,I know your bravery and prowess.

00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,You are not used to hiding and
being cautious that is why

00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,I ** extremely worrying about
you. Come over.

00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,Beloved far away. Come over.
I ** begging you.

00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,I love you with all my heart.
So, here is my confession at last.

00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,I cannot live without you. I
believe you are not surprised,

00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,because it is not all of a
sudden, Grigory Alexandrovich.

00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,Love has been growing for a long
time.

00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,But now I ** standing on the
edge.

00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,Will I fly or fall?

00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,Now I ** saying:
my heart is yours.

00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,By military rank, I ** a colonel
of the Preobrazhensky regiment.
