Biography
The son of a retired guards warrant officer Sergei Fedorovich Panyutin and Nadezhda Fedorovna, née Kozlova; Panyutin's birth date is not exactly known, most likely (on the tombstone) on May 10, 1790.

Napoleonic Wars
After receiving his initial home education, he was determined to be in the Page Corps in 1807, where he graduated from the training course in 1809 and was released on May 12 as a warrant officer in the Life Guards. Semenovsky regiment. Produced on May 1, 1811, as second lieutenant, Panyutin, together with the Semenovsky regiment, participated in many battles of the Patriotic War of 1812. As part of the 1st Army, he participated in the retreat from the border and many rear-guard battles. In the battle of Borodino on August 24 and 25 he was in the army reserve, and on the day of August 26 - in the battle itself; then he was under Tarutin and Maloyaroslavets. In exactly the same way, he was also at the passage of troops through the Neman, participated in the battles at Lutzen, Bautzen, Pirn, Kulm and the Battle of Leipzig (where he was shell-shocked with a core in his right leg) in 1813, and, finally, during the capture of Paris on March 18, 1814, of the year. For all these battles, he received the Order of St. Anne of the 3rd degree "For Courage" (May 9, 1813, for distinction under Bautzen), St. Vladimir of the 4th degree with a bow (September 15, 1813) and the Prussian Order "Pour le Mérite" (for distinction under Kulm) and on September 23, 1813, was promoted to lieutenant.

At the end of his overseas campaigns, Panyutin continued to serve in the Semenovsky regiment until 1820, and during this time he received the ranks of staff captain (March 14, 1816), captain (June 8, 1817) and colonel (December 15, 1819). On November 2, 1820, Panyutin was transferred after the well-known story with Colonel Schwartz to the Sevsky Infantry Regiment, in which on July 4, 1822, he was appointed commander of the battalion. September 18, 1826, Panyutin was given command of the Rylsky Infantry Regiment.

Russo-Turkish War
Conducted as a major general on September 29, 1828, Panyutin was appointed commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 20th Infantry Division (Russian Empire) and, in the war with Turkey that arose in 1828, together with the entire division, was aimed at strengthening the forces of the separate Caucasian corps acting against Turkey from Asia Minor. Panyutin participated in a stubborn battle at Bayazet, which lasted 32 hours, and was badly wounded by a bullet in the thigh of his right leg. For the excellent courage shown in this battle, he was awarded the Order of St. George of the 3rd class No. 421 on January 19, 1830
"In return for the distinction made in the war against the Turks of 1829, during the two-day defense of the Bayazet fortress against the numerous corps of Wanskago Pasha, he was seriously injured and after dressing with the help of people again appeared in business and remained until the end of the onago"
The wound received by Panyutin deprived him of the opportunity to participate in further hostilities of the Turkish War, which ended in peace on October 1, 1829. At the conclusion of peace, the troops of the 20th Division returned to the Caucasian line and were sent by the commander in chief in the Caucasus (at that time Count Paskevich) to conquer the hostile peoples of Russia that inhabited the Caucasus Mountains, especially on p. Pshebsu to act against the Shapsugs.

Uprising in Poland
The uprising in the Kingdom of Poland that broke out in November 1830 forced him to send the Russian army under the command of Field Marshal Dibich to Poland. Panyutin was with him at that time and, following the army, was captured by the rebels, in which he remained from June 8 to August 20, 1831, and then, together with a small detachment entrusted to him (regiments of the Sevsky infantry and Lubensky hussars with 4 guns ), occupied the town of Petrikau until the very end of this war in 1831. For the difference in this campaign he was awarded the 2nd degree Virtuti militari badge.
Commanding after the 1st Brigade of the 6th Infantry Division (Russian Empire) (from September 16, 1831), and then the 8th Infantry Division (Russian Empire) (from October 15, 1834), Panyutin stood within the former Kingdom of Poland not far from the Austrian border. October 27, 1834, received the Order of St. Anna of the 1st degree. The riots in Galicia and the city of Krakow were the reason that a special detachment of Russian troops from Kielce, under the command of Panyutin, was sent to Austria, occupied Krakow, and then, after restoring order, returned to the Kingdom of Poland. April 18, 1834, promoted to lieutenant general. On September 7, 1839, he was awarded the Order of St. Vladimir of the 2nd degree, and on February 15, 1846, he received the Order of the White Eagle (Russian Empire).

Revolution in Hungary
In 1848, an uprising broke out in Hungary, putting Austria in an extremely difficult position. The rescue of Vienna from death, according to Prince Schwarzenberg (in his letter to Paskevich), consisted solely in the immediate appearance of Russian troops on the right wing of the Hungarians (who had already captured Komorny on the Danube). The Austrian emperor, Schwarzenberg wrote, cannot doubt the intention of his august ally, but he fears only that the news of the current state of affairs can reach his majesty only when it is too late to help with forces that would now be enough.

Paskevich, who at that time was the viceroy of the Kingdom of Poland, was not slow to report his majesty, but meanwhile he received new, more urgent requests for immediate help from the Austrian government, as Hungarian troops under the command of Artúr Görgei were already approaching Vienna. Paskevich, not doubting the firm intention of his sovereign to help Austria, which was in danger of imminent death, sent, not expecting a special high command, a separate detachment of 4 infantry and 2 cavalry regiments under the command of Panyutin to strengthen the 7th Corps of the Austrian army most threatened by the Hungarians.
Panyutin immediately moved with the division by rail from Krakow to Vienna and, arriving the next day to Gradisch (between Olmütz and Göding), stopped at the request of the Austrians (April 30, 1849), and then moved to join them, since while the Hungarian troops engaged in a siege of Ofen, and the Austrian commander Velden (soon replaced by Field Marshal Baron Gaynau) intended to go on the offensive. Panyutin moved through Wartenberg to Diosek, where the Austrian army was, and was supposed to be with the main army until its rapprochement with the army of Paskevich.

Artúr Görgei intended to defeat the Austrians before joining them with the Russian troops, but he did not succeed, because in the battle of June 8 (20) near Pered, the Russian troops of Panyutin brought the Austrians a victory, very important for them: they were temporarily secured from attacks by the Hungarians and could concentrate their troops on the right bank of the Danube for action on Raab and Pest. Panyutin at the same time burned another bridge over the river. Wag at Nedda. For this brilliant work, he was made adjutant general of his majesty, while the Austrian emperor awarded him the Order of the Iron Crown of the 1st degree.

After this battle, Görgei retreated to Komorn, a strong fortress on the Danube, which was soon approached by the Austrian troops. Gainau, counting on the superiority of his forces, wished for a decisive battle that took place on June 20 (July 2) and was at first unfavorable for the Austrians, but Panyutin quickly, having moved to their aid, with his successful orders during the battle, delivered the opportunity to defeat the Hungarians, who retreated and locked themselves in the fortress. Their leader Görgei was wounded by a saber in the head, and Klapka took command of the Hungarian forces.

After this, Gainau, through Ofen and Pest, moved his troops to the left bank of the Danube to go to the lower Tisza and act against the Hungarian militia. At the same time, the Battle of Temesvár occurred, in which Panyutin again rendered a great service in that, having timely taken an important place in Besenovo, he made it possible for the Austrians to defeat the Hungarians, after which their southern army ceased to exist. Panyutin was awarded the Order of St. Alexander Nevsky on August 22, 1849, for his participation and order in this matter. The Austrians, in a report on this battle, completely ignored the participation that fell to him, but nevertheless gave him the knighthood of the military order of Maria Theresa.

Meanwhile, Gergei's army surrendered to Paskevich, and Panyutin was ordered to join the main Russian army with the troops entrusted to him, which ended this two-month campaign, after which Panyutin returned to the fatherland and was appointed commander of the 2nd Infantry Corps on August 11, 1849. December 6, 1851, promoted to general from infantry. May 28, 1851, received diamond signs for the Order of St. Alexander Nevsky.

During the upcoming Crimean War, during the formation of the Middle Army in the South-Western Territory in 1855, Panyutin was appointed commander of it, but had no chance to take an active part in our struggle with the Anglo-French troops: the army entrusted to him had the purpose, except for guarding the region, to serve the main reserve for our troops operating both on the Danube and near Sevastopol. On August 26, 1856, Panyutin was awarded the Order of St. Vladimir of the 1st degree for ordering and the formation of necessary reinforcements, and during the disbandment of this army after the conclusion of the Paris Peace, he was appointed Warsaw Military Governor and, at the same time, present in the Warsaw Departments of the Senate.

From September 26, 1858, Panyutin was the chief of the Alexopol Infantry Regiment and since 1859 was on the lists of the Life Guards of the Semenov Regiment.

Later, on April 23, 1861, Panyutin was appointed a member of the Council of State. Frustrated by his health, in 1865 he was forced to ask for his leave on leave abroad, but, having received permission on May 10, 1865, he soon died - May 31 (June 12), 1865. He was buried in Vilna in the Church of St. Euphrosyne.
