How to give internet access to a network within my home network

I am trying to replicate a lab I did in college many months ago. I'm using Windows Server 2016 set up as a Domain Controller and as a router, DNS, and DHCP server, as a VM on Hyper-V in Windows 10 Pro. I have two NICs, one of which is directly connected to the home cable modem via ethernet (let's call it External NIC), the other is connected to a switch (let's call it Internal NIC), which then connects to other "peripherals" I will be using in that network.

Here's my current network setup:

Windows Server 2016 (external): ip 192.168.0.190 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1
Windows Server 2016 (internal): ip 10.19.98.1 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.19.98.1

Windows 10 (external): ip 192.168.0.191 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1
Windows 10 (internal): ip 10.19.98.2 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.19.98.1

I am using the VM as my only DNS and I have tried several routing methods such as using RIPv2 and static routing, but I can't seem to remember how I am supposed to enter the information into the routing table (as in, which address to use as the "destination" and "gateway").

I want to give the 10.19.98.0 network internet access, which we were able to do in the lab in a very similar scenario, where one entry into the routing table enabled access to the entire 10.x.x.x network, each subnetted as 10.x0.0.0/24 for each row.
