Informations supplémentaires:
Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov, Count Suvorov of Rymnik, Prince in Italy, Count of the Holy Roman Empire (24 November 1729 - 18 May 1800), was the fourth and last generalissimo of the Russian Empire. One of the few great generals in history who never lost a battle along with the likes of Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan, he was famed for his military manual The Science of Victory and noted for the sayings "What is difficult in training will become easy in a battle", "The bullet is a fool, the bayonet is a fine chap", "Perish yourself but rescue your comrade!". He taught his soldiers to attack instantly and decisively: "attack with the cold steel–push hard with the bayonet!" His soldiers adored him. He joked with the men, called the common soldiers 'brother', and shrewdly presented the results of detailed planning and careful strategy as the work of inspiration.
