Excerpt characterizing Shevtsov, Leonty Pavlovich

The non-commissioned officer, with a decisive look, did not answer these words, sat on horseback and rode off with Grekov, who had quickly gathered. They disappeared into the forest. Count Orlov, shaking from the freshness of the morning that was beginning to break, excited by what he had started on his own responsibility, having seen Grekov off, came out of the forest and began to look around the enemy camp, which was now visible deceptively in the light of the beginning of the morning and the dying fires. To the right of Count Orlov Denisov, along the open slope, our columns should have appeared. Count Orlov looked there; but despite the fact that they would have been noticeable from afar, these columns were not visible. In the French camp, as it seemed to Count Orlov Denisov, and especially according to his very vigilant adjutant, they began to stir.
“Oh, really, it’s late,” said Count Orlov, looking at the camp. Suddenly, as often happens, after the person we trust is no longer in front of his eyes, it suddenly became completely clear and obvious to him that the non-commissioned officer is a deceiver, that he lied and will only spoil the whole attack by the absence of these two regiments, whom he will lead God knows where. Is it possible to snatch the commander-in-chief from such a mass of troops?
“Really, he’s lying, this scoundrel,” said the count.
“We can turn it back,” said one of the retinue, who, like Count Orlov Denisov, felt distrust of the enterprise when he looked at the camp.
- A? Right?..what do you think, or leave it? Or not?
- Would you like to turn it back?
- Turn back, turn back! - Count Orlov suddenly said decisively, looking at his watch, - it will be late, it’s quite light.
And the adjutant galloped through the forest after Grekov. When Grekov returned, Count Orlov Denisov, excited by this canceled attempt, and by the futile wait for infantry columns that still did not show up, and by the proximity of the enemy (all the people of his detachment felt the same), decided to attack.
He commanded in a whisper: “Sit down!” They distributed themselves, crossed themselves...
- With God blessing!
“Hurray!” - there was a rustle through the forest, and, one hundred after another, as if pouring out of a bag, the Cossacks flew cheerfully with their darts at the ready, across the stream to the camp.
One desperate, frightened cry from the first Frenchman who saw the Cossacks - and everyone in the camp, unclothed and sleepy, abandoned their cannons, rifles, horses and ran anywhere.
If the Cossacks had pursued the French, not paying attention to what was behind and around them, they would have taken Murat and everything that was there. The bosses wanted this. But it was impossible to move the Cossacks from their place when they got to the booty and prisoners. Nobody listened to the commands. One thousand five hundred prisoners, thirty-eight guns, banners and, most importantly for the Cossacks, horses, saddles, blankets and various items were immediately taken. All this had to be dealt with, the prisoners and guns had to be seized, the booty had to be divided, shouting, even fighting among themselves: the Cossacks did all this.
The French, no longer being pursued, began to gradually come to their senses, gathered in teams and began to shoot. Orlov Denisov expected all the columns and did not advance further.
Meanwhile, according to the disposition: “die erste Colonne marschiert” [the first column is coming (German)], etc., the infantry troops of the late columns, commanded by Bennigsen and controlled by Toll, set out as they should and, as always happens, arrived somewhere , but not where they were assigned. As always happens, people who had gone out cheerfully began to stop; Displeasure was heard, a sense of confusion was heard, and we moved somewhere back. The adjutants and generals who rode by shouted, got angry, quarreled, said that they were in the wrong place and were late, scolded someone, etc., and finally, everyone gave up and went off only to go somewhere else. “We’ll come somewhere!” And indeed, they came, but not to the right place, and some went there, but were so late that they came without any benefit, only to be shot at. Toll, who in this battle played the role of Weyrother at Austerlitz, diligently galloped from place to place and everywhere found everything topsy-turvy. So he galloped towards Baggovut’s corps in the forest, when it was already quite daylight, and this corps should have been there long ago, with Orlov Denisov. Excited, upset by the failure and believing that someone was to blame for this, Tol galloped up to the corps commander and sternly began to reproach him, saying that he should be shot for this. Baggovut, an old, militant, calm general, also exhausted by all the stops, confusions, contradictions, to the surprise of everyone, completely contrary to his character, flew into a rage and said unpleasant things to Tolya.
“I don’t want to take lessons from anyone, but I know how to die with my soldiers no worse than anyone else,” he said and went forward with one division.
Having entered the field under French shots, the excited and brave Baggovut, not realizing whether his entry into the matter now was useful or useless, and with one division, went straight and led his troops under the shots. Danger, cannonballs, bullets were exactly what he needed in his angry mood. One of the first bullets killed him, the next bullets killed many soldiers. And his division stood for some time under fire without benefit.

Meanwhile, another column was supposed to attack the French from the front, but Kutuzov was with this column. He knew well that nothing but confusion would come out of this battle that had begun against his will, and, as far as it was in his power, he held back the troops. He didn't move.
Kutuzov rode silently on his gray horse, lazily responding to proposals to attack.
“You’re all about attacking, but you don’t see that we don’t know how to do complex maneuvers,” he said to Miloradovich, who asked to go forward.
“They didn’t know how to take Murat alive in the morning and arrive at the place on time: now there’s nothing to do!” - he answered the other.
When Kutuzov was informed that in the rear of the French, where, according to the Cossacks’ reports, there had been no one before, there were now two battalions of Poles, he glanced back at Yermolov (he had not spoken to him since yesterday).
“They ask for an offensive, they propose various projects, but as soon as you get down to business, nothing is ready, and the forewarned enemy takes his own measures.”
Ermolov narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly when he heard these words. He realized that the storm had passed for him and that Kutuzov would limit himself to this hint.
“He’s being amused at my expense,” Ermolov said quietly, nudging Raevsky, who was standing next to him, with his knee.
Soon after this, Ermolov moved forward to Kutuzov and respectfully reported:
- Time has not been lost, your lordship, the enemy has not left. What if you order an attack? Otherwise the guards won’t even see the smoke.
Kutuzov said nothing, but when he was informed that Murat’s troops were retreating, he ordered an offensive; but every hundred steps he stopped for three quarters of an hour.
The whole battle consisted only in what Orlov Denisov’s Cossacks did; the rest of the troops only lost several hundred people in vain.

There is only one military oath for military personnel. Failure to comply with the requirements of the oath, especially in wartime, is a serious military crime, with all legal consequences.

It doesn’t matter what kind of war and where it is going on, inside the country or outside it, and who understands it, whether it is fair or not.

The state takes a long time to train a military specialist; in fact, his training takes years and large financial and material resources. Especially for the training of senior officers - generals. They receive large positions, a solid salary, education, and the respect of the people, who hope that when necessary they will worthily defend the independence and integrity of the country and its citizens.

And this has always been the case, under any government in Russia since the time of the tsars. As an example, I’ll name A.V. Suvorov, a genius of military affairs, a patriot of Russia, a generalissimo, who won 70 battles and, one might say, did not lose a single one.

He was awarded, among other awards, three orders for the war with the Polish Confederates. Here's a document to make it clear:

“- Order of St. Anne (09.1770) - for battles with the Polish Confederates;

- Order of St. George, 3rd class (08/19/1771, No. 34) - “For bravery and courageous exploits performed in 770 and 771 with the detachment entrusted to him against the Polish rebels, when he made prudent orders in the battles that happened, defeating their parties everywhere , won victories over them";

- Order of St. Alexander Nevsky (12/20/1771) - for the victory over the Polish Confederates."

A.V. Suvorov is a military genius, no match for all of us; he didn’t care where the state was in danger from. He always remained faithful to the Fatherland, the oath and the power of Russian weapons. Glory to Suvorov!

What did we observe in the early 90s? They destroyed, not without outside help, however, the Soviet Union, disarmed by half, squandered many national wealth, but this was not enough for Russia’s opponents, and all efforts were devoted to its dismemberment. The weak point turned out to be the North Caucasus. The Chechen war began. The army was not ready for it. They collected poorly trained military personnel from all over Russia, but there were no others.

A full-fledged military leadership was needed for the Chechen campaign. But it turned out that the most difficult thing was to find a commander. He fell ill, and I confirm this as an eyewitness, the commander of the North Caucasus Military District, Colonel General A. N. Mityukhin.

On December 11, the war began, the troops went and stood on the advance routes. I have already spoken about the reasons. The commander has been replaced, but there is no new one. Minister of Defense P.S. cannot Grachev find a leader. Some of his deputies refused for various reasons, he himself said this.

This is a unique situation in military history: the war is going on, but there is no commander. First Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces, Colonel General E. A. Vorobyov, arrived at the headquarters in Mozdok for 3 days and refused to lead the group, since this war did not suit him, and the personnel were allegedly poorly prepared, and left for Moscow.

Very interesting, who should prepare them if not the First Deputy of the Civil Command of the Army? Probably Americans or Germans.

10 days after the start of the war, when the term “counter-terrorism operation” (CTO) had not yet been introduced, the Ministry of Defense brought the 1st deputy of the NGOU, former army commander Lieutenant General A.V. Kvashnin and appointed commander of the United Group of Federal Forces.

A strange situation arose at the beginning of the creation of the new Russian army, born on the wave of democracy and perestroika: generals refuse to fight, and poorly trained, sometimes untrained soldiers go to war, fulfilling their duty, as prescribed by the military oath. They don’t even have any thoughts of refusing to fight, and they, even untrained, fulfill their military duty.

Let me give you an example, it will stay in my memory for the rest of my life. The combined battalion of the Northern Fleet arrived - 750 people.

Major General V.D. comes to me, as the chief of staff. Durnev, who heads the military post office - the courier postal service of the Armed Forces, reports that a battalion of the Northern Fleet has arrived, and it is difficult for him to deliver letters to the soldiers. I answer: “It’s simple, Moscow-400 and then the number of the military unit of the battalion.” But he says that this battalion brings together military personnel from dozens of units. After thinking a little, I set the task that in 2 hours he would bring me a certificate in the form: serial number, number of the military unit. Two hours later he brings it, and it turns out that this battalion was assembled from 53 military units. I went to the battalion, talked with the leadership and personnel, and the picture became extremely clear. In one day, they assembled the personnel, handed them weapons, according to the hastily made staff, appointing someone as a machine gunner, someone as a machine gunner, etc. People could not act even when armed; there was no talk of any kind of combat coordination at all.

The NGS urgently reported to Colonel General M.P. Kolesnikov and when asked what I was proposing, asked to send the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces (ZKBP) - the head of the combat training department of the Ground Forces, Colonel General A.A. Golovnev with officers to train newly arriving reinforcements. The training of many other units also left much to be desired.

The next day, about 20 officers arrived, led by Colonel General A.A. Golovnev, who provided great assistance in training personnel, starting with studying weapons and conducting practical shooting in nearby quarries.

It turns out: an untrained soldier must, is obliged, according to the oath, to fight, but a general trained for 8-9 years in a school and two academies does not want to, choosing a war that suits him.

Isn't there one military oath and there is another oath for generals?

Suvorov could and fought wherever the state leadership sent him, but we cannot, it’s not the right war, not the right one. What to call it, what literary word is more suitable? Decency and conscience have no place here.

It is necessary, as Marshal of the Soviet Union D.T. said. Yazov, “do not show off in office, but work, serve, and when necessary, fight.” Not every general experiences war during his service, but one must be prepared for this.

It is easy to be a patriot when it serves your interests, and it is much harder to be one when you risk your life and personal well-being.

To end this difficult conversation, I will say that some media and the fifth column made heroes out of them because they refused to fight within the country, and some, on the wave of democracy and perestroika, got into the State Duma, the Defense Committee, and taught young people , how to love the Motherland, defend its integrity, fight separatism, that is, he taught patriotism to these, figuratively speaking, “unkissed” soldiers, who, without any loud words, untrained, by the way, by us, fulfilled their military and patriotic duty.

If an officer, and especially a general, is a patriot and truly devoted to the state and cares about its well-being not opportunistically, but from the heart, especially about its integrity, then he should not care where the threat to the existence of the country comes from - from outside or from within. And the highest example and authority for us is the military genius and great patriot of Russia, Generalissimo A.V. Suvorov.

The general has been trained for decades, and his knowledge and experience may sometimes be needed for several hours or minutes, during which he must make the only correct decision and take responsibility on which the lives of tens of thousands of people and the security of the state depend.

In his writings A.V. Suvorov, speaking about the main fighting qualities of a military man depending on his position and military rank, wrote: “For a private - courage, for an officer - fearlessness, for a general - courage.” And the courage of a general is already a character trait, the backbone of a person; it either exists or it doesn’t, regardless of the position held. Do the listed ranks that I spoke about have this quality? I have no doubt - they do not.

It is good that in Russia there have always been military leaders who had the courage to take responsibility for the interests of the country.

As an example, I would like to cite the actions of our contemporary as a role model for all military personnel, current generals and those who are now on the way to this high rank.

This is the former commander of the North Caucasian Military District and now the head of the General Staff Academy, Colonel General Sergei Afanasyevich Makarov.

It so happened that in 2008, when Georgia attacked South Ossetia and our peacekeepers in it, the country’s leadership was far away due to the start of the Beijing Olympics.

Defense Minister A. Serdyukov was on vacation and there was no contact with him. But this is a purely civilian person who does not fully understand the heights to which fate has elevated him. It’s a stretch to forgive him, if indeed it is possible, because it could have been nuclear affairs.

But the Chief of the General Staff, a military man to whom the GRU is subordinate, all types of intelligence up to and including space intelligence, could not help but know about the beginning of hostilities, provocations and, ultimately, the beginning of a military campaign. For this ignorance alone is tantamount to a crime in office or failure to fulfill official duties. And second: evading decision-making and failure to give orders to bring the North Caucasian Military District troops into full combat readiness and move troops to the Roki Pass, with the loss of which Georgia could consider itself the victorious side, is, without any exaggeration, a malfeasance, since Russia would be forced to put hundreds, and maybe thousands of Russian soldiers and officers to return the pass.

Unlike NGS, S.A. Makarov, the commander of the North Caucasian Military District troops, knows the situation very well and understands that delay (loss of the Roki Pass) could cost hundreds and thousands of personnel losses, and in the worst case, lead to a shameful defeat.

Without waiting for any orders, either written (and this is mandatory) or oral, by his decision he puts the district’s troops on “Full” combat readiness and begins a military campaign to force Georgia to peace.

It is the rarest case in general in military history that the commander of a district’s troops starts a war, or perhaps a military conflict or a response to a military provocation. The point is not in the title, but in the degree of responsibility and understanding of one’s role and place while in the position of commander of the military district. Indeed, in case of failure, a tribunal or serious consequences for the commander personally are inevitable.

But he is a real, courageous general and military leader.

Fortunately for him and, of course, for Russia, the war turned out to be successful - victorious.

I'm not saying anything new. In the army, everyone knows this very well, understands and discusses it. Of course, everyone is happy that General N.E. Makarov was stripped of his post as Chief of the General Staff.

And the commander of the North Caucasian Military District, Sergei Afanasyevich Makarov, is a role model, primarily for those students of the VAGS, whom he has the honor of teaching, even as a civilian, since his shoulder straps were removed from him by the people who headed the Defense Ministry and the General Staff at that time, who fired him for organizational and staffing measures (Article 51, paragraph 2, subparagraph “a”).

When I see the word article, I want to swear, for “complete happiness” all that is missing is an article. And they did this to the Colonel General, a war hero! One can only guess how other generals and officers were removed.

The shoulder straps should be returned to their normal place - on his shoulders.

During my work with NATO on the preparation and conduct of a peacekeeping operation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, I became interested in how the generals and officers of the American army viewed participation in a possible war (conflict) within the country. In response, they showed me an interesting document, which I present in full.

This, they say, is the answer to your question. All you need is an order. For this is the US Constitution, which we are obliged to implement without any reasoning.

Me, full name, upon appointment to the position of officer

US Army rank____________

I do solemnly swear to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies,both external and internal, maintaindevotion and fidelity to the Constitution, I swear that I of my own free will, without mental reservations and not for the purpose of evasion, take upon myself this obligation that I will honestly perform my official duty. May God help me.

I think that the above text of the oath of an American officer leaves no doubt about how they should and will act against the enemies of the United States, both external and internal.

If some look at the United States as a model of democracy and try to hide behind this Western democracy, then let them take an example from America when it comes to its interests, not to mention war. Where the issues of human rights and democracy go in these cases, one can only guess, but Victoria Nuland, Deputy Head of the State Department, knows and sends all of Europe there in plain text.

And if we recall the American Civil War of 1861-1865, when 11 states of the South decided to secede from the United States and form a confederation, then 24 northern states fought a war for four years in which more than 600 thousand people were killed and more than 1 million. wounded and maimed, and this was with the antediluvian weapons of that time.

During my work with NATO, journalists from Western and American media especially pestered me about how I participated in such a wrong war in Chechnya as the chief of staff of the Joint Group of Federal Forces. This, they say, is inhumane, undemocratic and unfair. And only when he cited the American Civil War of 1861-1865 as an answer. with its goals and sacrifices, I was not asked any more such questions.

- Well, Isidora, have you thought of something more sensible? – without saying hello, Karaffa began. – I really hope that this week will bring you to your senses and I will not have to resort to the most extreme measures. I told you completely sincerely - I don’t want to harm your beautiful daughter, rather the opposite. I would be glad if Anna continued to study and learn new things. She is still too hot-tempered in her actions and categorical in her judgments, but she has enormous potential. One can only imagine what she would be capable of if he was allowed to open up correctly!.. How do you look at this, Isidora? After all, for this I only need your consent. And then everything will be fine with you again.
- Apart from the death of my husband and father, is it not, Your Holiness? – I asked bitterly.
– Well, it was an unforeseen complication (!..). And you still have Anna, don’t forget that!
– Why should anyone “stay” with me at all, Your Holiness?.. I had a wonderful family, which I loved very much, and which was everything in the world to me! But you destroyed it... just because of an “unforeseen complication,” as you just put it!.. Do living people really not matter to you?!
Caraffa relaxed into a chair and said quite calmly:
“People interest me only to the extent that they are obedient to our most holy church.” Or how extraordinary and unusual their minds are. But these come across, unfortunately, very rarely. The ordinary crowd doesn't interest me at all! This is a bunch of little thinking meat, which is no longer good for anything other than carrying out someone else's will and someone else's orders, because their brain is not able to comprehend even the most primitive truth.
Even knowing Karaffa, I felt my head spinning with excitement... How was it possible to live thinking like that?!
- Well, what about the gifted?.. You are afraid of them, Your Holiness, aren’t you? Otherwise you wouldn’t have killed them so brutally. Tell me, if you burn them in the end anyway, then why torture them so inhumanely even before they go to the stake? Is the atrocity that you are committing by burning these unfortunates alive not enough for you?..
– They must repent and confess, Isidora! Otherwise, their soul will not be cleansed, despite the fact that I will betray them to the flames of the holy fire. They must get rid of the devil in them - they must get rid of their dirty Gift! Otherwise, their soul, having come to Earth from darkness, will again plunge into the same darkness... And I will not be able to fulfill my duty - to unite their fallen souls to the Lord God. Do you understand this, Isidora?!
No, I didn’t understand... because it was the real delirium of an extremely crazy person!.. Caraffa’s incomprehensible brain was a mystery for me behind seven of the heaviest locks... And, in my opinion, no one could comprehend this riddle. Sometimes the Holy Pope seemed to me the smartest and most educated person, knowing much more than any ordinary well-read and educated person. As I said earlier, he was a wonderful conversationalist, shining with his tenacious and sharp mind, which completely subjugated those around him. But sometimes... what he “uttered” didn’t seem like anything normal or understandable. Where was his rare mind at such moments?..
- For mercy, Your Holiness, you are talking to me now! Why pretend?!. What “lord” are we talking about here? And to which “lord” would you like to unite the souls of these unfortunate “sinners”? And in general, would you mind telling me which Lord you yourself believe? If, of course, you believe at all...
Contrary to my expectation, he did not explode in anger... But he just smiled and said in a teacher’s tone:
“You see, Isidora, a person does not need God to believe in something,” seeing my dumbfounded face, Karaffa laughed cheerfully. – Isn’t it funny to hear this from me, Isidora? .. But the truth is true, although I understand that from the lips of the Pope it must sound more than strange. But I repeat - man truly does not need God... For this, another person is enough for him. Take Christ for example... He was simply very gifted, but still a MAN! And all he had to do was walk on water, revive a half-dead man, show a few more of the same “tricks”, well, and for us to correctly declare that he is the son of God (and therefore almost God), and everything went exactly as was always the case - the crowd, after his death, joyfully rushed after their redeemer... even without fully understanding what it was that he truly redeemed for them...

Radomir (Jesus Christ), who knew how to walk on water...

As I told you earlier, people need to be able to direct and manage them correctly, Isidora. Only then is it possible to have complete control over them.
– But you will never be able to control entire nations!.. For this you need armies, Holiness! And even assuming that you would somehow subjugate these peoples, I am sure that brave people would again be found who would lead the rest to win their freedom.
“You’re absolutely right, Madonna,” Caraffa nodded. – Peoples do not submit voluntarily – they must be subjugated! But I'm not a warrior, and I don't like to fight. This creates great and unnecessary inconvenience... Therefore, in order to subjugate peacefully, I use a very simple and reliable method - I destroy their past... For without a past a person is vulnerable... He loses his ancestral roots if he does not have a past. And just then, confused and unprotected, he becomes a “blank canvas” on which I can write any story!.. And would you believe it, dear Isidora, people are only happy about this... because, I repeat, they cannot live without the past (even if they don’t want to admit it to themselves). And when there is none, they accept anything, so as not to “hang” in the unknown, which for them is much more terrible than any stranger’s, made-up “story.”
– And do you really think that no one sees what is really happening?.. After all, there are so many smart, gifted people on Earth! – I exclaimed indignantly.
- Why don’t they see it? The chosen ones see it and even try to show it to others. But from time to time we “clean up” them... And everything falls into place again.
– Just as you once “cleaned up” the family of Christ and Magdalene? Or today – the gifted?.. What is this “god” to whom you pray, Your Holiness? What kind of monster needs all these sacrifices?!
– If we speak frankly, I don’t pray to the gods, Isidora... I live BY THE MIND. Well, God is needed only by the helpless and poor in spirit. For those who are used to asking for help... for benefits... and for everything in the world! Just don’t fight yourself!.. These are little people, Isidora! And they are worth managing! And the rest is a matter of time. That is why I ask you to help me live until the day when I gain complete power in this insignificant world!.. Then you will see that I was not joking, and that the Earth will completely obey me! I will make my empire out of it... Oh, I only need time!.. And you will give it to me, Isidora. You just don't know about it yet.
