How to be to the point. Immediately after the peace with the Ottoman Empire was signed, Suvorov was again transferred to Poland, where he assumed the command of one of the corps and took part in the Battle of Maciejowice, in which he captured the Polish commander-in-chief Tadeusz Kościuszko. On November 4, 1794, Suvorovs forces stormed Warsaw and captured Praga, one of its boroughs. Suvorov sent a report to his sovereign consisting of only three words: Hurrah, Warsaws ours! (Ура, Варшава наша!). Catherine replied in two words: Hurrah, Fieldmarshal! (rus. Ура, фельдмаршал!—that is, awarding him this title).
