Intro. The Defense of St. Petersburg In 1814, the imperial city of St. Petersburg became one of the last bastions of Russian resistance. With Napoleonic forces retreating and the Blight advancing through Eastern Europe, the capital of the Tsarist empire was besieged by hordes of infected. The defense of the city was ordered by Tsar Alexander I himself, who, in the face of the collapse of conventional military structures, delegated emergency authority to General Mikhail Kutuzov, hero of the campaign of 1812. Kutuzov, though weakened by age and illness, organized a line of resistance at the intersection of Millionnaya and Moshkov streets—a strategic point between the Winter Palace and the Neva. There, imperial soldiers, armed peasants, and even freed prisoners fought side by side. The order was clear: "No step back. St. Petersburg will not fall."

I will
