Summer of 1803. Not so long ago, the Russian Empire defeated the Ottoman Empire in the war, and Generalissimo Suvorov with his “wonderful heroes” broke the Poles and fought his way through the Alps. Ahead was war with the French, and then a long and exhausting campaign in the Caucasus. At just that time, the simplest student Dimka from the 21st century gets into a sleepy district town in the Southern Urals. Into the ranks? Or to penal servitude? His choice is limited. Empires always need soldiers!
