He aspired to lead the projected Russian invasion of Persia but the supreme command was given to a young and unexperienced courtier, Count Zubov. The Persian Expedition of Catherine the Great, alongside the Persian Expedition of Peter the Great, was one of the Russo-Persian Wars of the 18th century Zubov (Зу́бов was a Russian noble family which rose to the highest offices of state in the 1790s when Platon Zubov succeeded Count Orlov and Embittered, Gudovich entertained plans of retiring from active service.
