Russian Corps under GFML Goltz in Poland, December 1705 – September 1709

"Заднепровский" корпус (дивизия) фельдмаршал-лейтенанта Генриха Гольца в южной Польше, дек 1708-сент 1709

Commanding officer: GFML Henrich v.d. Goltz

GL Mikhail Golytzin, GM Alexander Gordon, GM Grigory Volkonskiy, GM Alexander Yakhontov, Brigadier Fedor Balk

Corps under GFML Goltz consisted of an Infantry (Goltz) & & Dragoon (volkonskiy) divisions.

Infantry (6): 

• Voronezj (Воронежский), 
• Chernigov (Черниговский), 
• Velyikye Luky (Великолуцкий), 
• Viatka (Вятский), 
• Ryazan (Рязанский), 
• Olonetc (Олонецкий)

Their actual strength in September 1709 was 755-971 men, so I assume that in December 1708 thier strength was close to the authorized 1,200 men. Each regiment had 2 3-pder regimental pieces.

Olonetc Foot was left in Kiev garrison. Later it was sent to Kamenniy Zaton

Converged grenadier battalion was created in spring 1709 of 5 coys (all regiments except Olonetc)

Dragoons (6)

• Novgorod (Новгородский)
• Astrakhan (Астраханский)
• Perm (Пермский)
• Pskov (Псковский)
• Rostov (Ростовский)
• Uglich (Угличский)

Their actual strength is unknown. As a rule Russian Dragoons after 1705 didn't have regimental artillery but some pieces could be attached to a cavalry Corps (brigade/division)

GM Volkonskiy & Novgorod Dragoons in spring 1709 joined Main army & participated in Poltava battle
