September 21 - Victory Day of the Russian regiments led by Grand Duke Dmitry Donskoy over the Mongol-Tatar troops in the Battle of Kulikovo (1380) On the morning of September 8, all 6 regiments of the Russian army were located along the right bank of the Nepryadva. At 12 o'clock the Tatars also appeared on the Kulikovo field. Almost immediately, the battle was started by the Grand Duke Dmitry, after the duel of the Tatar Chelubey (or Telebey) with the monk Alexander Peresvet. Both combatants fell dead. (This duel is mentioned only in the "Tale of the Battle of Mamaev", while it is absent in other chronicles and works.) This was followed by a battle of the guard regiment, which withstood the attacks of the Tatars, and was forced to fight back both from the front and from the flanks. Some sources say that Dmitry was in the guard regiment, and when the regiment began to retreat under the blows of the superior forces of the Tatars, he went to the main forces of the Russian army to move them into battle. The calculation, apparently, was that the Tatars in a battle with a guard regiment would mix their battle formations, and they could be forced to fight “wall to wall”, where in conditions of a close narrow space, numerical superiority does not play a big role. The Tatars were able to bring down the guard regiment, continued the general onslaught and cut into the center. The battle here was protracted and long. According to eyewitnesses of the battle and chroniclers, the Tatar cavalry got bogged down in the advanced regiment, in the "pedestrian Russian great army", which fought desperately in crowded quarters. The chroniclers pointed out that the horses could no longer step on the corpses, since there was no clean place. Given the peculiarities of the cavalry battle, it can be assumed that the Tatar cavalry cut into the ranks of the Russian infantry several times and rolled back. The regiment, which was in ambush, was eager to fight all the time, but the governor Bobrok held him back, holding out until the last moment, citing various reasons, including the fact that the wind was in his face and it would be difficult for the horses to run. However, when the Tatars broke through to the river and set up a rear for the ambush regiment, Bobrok ordered to join the battle. The attack of the cavalry from an ambush from the rear on the main forces of the Tatars became decisive. The shock Tatar cavalry was driven into the river and killed there. At the same time, the regiment of the right hand of the Russian army and a large regiment went on the offensive. The Tatars retreated once again; mixed up and fled.

The program of the people's militia consisted in the liberation of Moscow from the interventionists, the refusal to recognize sovereigns of foreign origin on the Russian throne (which the boyar nobility sought, inviting the Polish prince Vladislav to the kingdom), and the creation of a new government. The actions of the militia were supported by Patriarch Hermogenes, who refused to fulfill the demands of the Moscow traitor boyars to condemn the militia and called for a fight against the interventionists. The victory in the battle of August 22-24 sealed the fate of the enemy garrisons in the Kremlin and Kitay-Gorod, which capitulated on October 22-26, 1612. the whole country.

The decisive Russian victory led to a turning point in the Northern War in favor of Russia and ended Sweden's dominance as the main military force in Europe.

Having broken through the redoubts, the bulk of the Swedes came under heavy artillery and rifle fire from the Russian camp and retreated in disorder to the Budischensky forest. At about six o'clock in the morning, Peter led the army out of the camp and built it in two lines, having infantry in the center, Menshikov's cavalry on the right flank, and General R. H. Bour's cavalry on the left. A reserve of nine infantry battalions was left in the camp. Rehnschild lined up the Swedes opposite the Russian army.

Apraksina concentrated off the eastern coast of Gangut (in Tverminna Bay) in order to break through to the Abo-Aland skerries and land troops to reinforce the Russian garrison in Abo (100 km northwest of Cape Gangut).

Suvorov (1790) In 1790, after capturing the fortresses of Kiliya, Tulcha and Isakcha, the commander-in-chief of the Russian army, Prince G.A. Potemkin-Tavrichesky ordered the detachments of generals I.V. Gudovich, P.S. Potemkin and the flotilla of General de Ribas to capture Izmail. However, their actions were indecisive. On November 26, the military council decided to lift the siege of the fortress in view of the approach of winter. The commander-in-chief did not approve this decision and ordered General-in-Chief A.V. Suvorov, whose troops were stationed at Galati, to take command of the units besieging Izmail. Taking command on December 2, Suvorov returned to Izmail the troops retreating from the fortress, and blockaded it from land and from the Danube River. Having completed the preparation of the assault in 6 days, on December 7, 1790, Suvorov sent an ultimatum to the commandant Ishmael demanding to surrender the fortress no later than 24 hours from the moment the ultimatum was delivered. The ultimatum was rejected. On December 9, the military council assembled by Suvorov decided to immediately begin the assault, which was scheduled for December 11. Suvorov planned to start the assault at 5 o'clock in the morning, about 2 hours before dawn. Darkness was needed for the surprise of the first blow and the mastery of the rampart; then it was unprofitable to fight in the dark, since it made it difficult to control the troops. Anticipating stubborn resistance, Suvorov wanted to have at his disposal as much daylight hours as possible. The conquest of Ishmael was of great political importance. It influenced the further course of the war and the conclusion in 1792 of the Iasi Peace between Russia and Turkey, which confirmed the annexation of Crimea to Russia and established the Russian-Turkish border along the river. Dniester. Thus, the entire northern Black Sea region from the Dniester to the Kuban was assigned to Russia. The victory near Izmail was dedicated to the anthem “Thunder of victory, resound!”, which until 1816 was considered the unofficial anthem of the Russian Empire.

However, she could not make the transition from Kherson to the combat area due to the presence of a Turkish squadron in the west of the Black Sea. The squadron of Rear Admiral F. F. Ushakov came to the aid of the flotilla. When it approached the Turkish squadron on August 28 (September 8), Kapudan Pasha Hassan decided to hastily retreat, but Ushakov ordered an immediate attack on the Turks. When the Russian fleet approached the Turkish rearguard within shotgun range, Hassan Pasha ordered the other ships to turn back. These maneuvers of the Turkish fleet allowed Ushakov's ships to lie on a parallel course, shorten the distance and begin a massive shelling of Turkish ships. Having received a lot of damage, the Turks retreated. On the morning of August 29 (September 9), it turned out that the Turkish squadron was close to the Russian one, and Ushakov continued to pursue it. The Russians managed to sink several enemy ships, including the best - the flagship "Kapudaniye", as well as capture battleship Meleki-Bakhri.

The subsequent retreat of the Russian army after the battle was dictated by strategic considerations and ultimately led to the defeat of Napoleon. Russian historian N.P. Mikhnevich reported this review of Napoleon about the battle: “Of all my battles, the most terrible is the one I fought near Moscow. The French showed themselves worthy of victory in it, and the Russians acquired the right to be invincible ... Of the fifty battles I gave, in the battle near Moscow [the French] showed the most valor and won the least success. According to the memoirs of the French General Pele, a participant in the Battle of Borodino, Napoleon often repeated a similar phrase: ““The battle of Borodino was the most beautiful and most formidable, that the French showed themselves worthy of victory, and the Russians deserved to be invincible”

Any attempt to escape must be suppressed by force!” He believed that Moscow and its environs would be flooded, and where the city stands today, a sea would arise that would forever hide the capital of the Russian people from the civilized world.
