King's Landing in France

Chapter 351 The Bayonet, Solitude, and the Blue Danube

The [-] French troops commanded by Napoleon relied on the fortifications originally built by the Austrian army.

After an hour of fierce fighting, the fortifications were already in tatters. Fortunately, the destructive power of the war is not so great now. Whether it is solid cannons or small projectiles fired by grape shells, it does not cause much damage to the civil structures that make up the main body of the fortifications. , just spoils the surface.

The barricades left by the Austrians were barely adequate.

As for the morale of the French army, to be honest, the first army under Napoleon is all veterans who have been fighting for a long time. There are even basic troops who have fought with An Ning since the Konta period. They are not afraid of 1000 people facing tens of thousands of Austrian troops. of.

What's more, Napoleon is still with them. Many people regard Napoleon as a symbol of peace, a clone, as long as he is there, there will be no problem of instability in the army.

The arrival of the next wave of attack was a bit later than Napoleon expected.

"Are they afraid of us? Are they afraid to attack?" A soldier asked Napoleon.

Napoleon: "Don't take it lightly. The enemy has not attacked for so long. It may be that they are changing the attacking troops. The newly replaced troops will attack harder than the previous troops."

"General, the enemy is coming up!"

Napoleon turned his head to observe the enemy, and then noticed that the color of the uniform had changed.

The upper body of the Prussian military uniform is a color between blue and gray, which is a bit similar to the color of the German army in later generations, but it is not so conspicuous.

The most eye-catching thing about Pujun's suit is the yellow jacket-colored trousers bestowed by the emperor. They are really bright, and the sun shines golden.

Napoleon couldn't help complaining: "These golden trousers are so bright that my eyes were dazzled."

The French soldiers around laughed at this, and the air was filled with merriment.

At this time, Napoleon suddenly discovered that several flags appeared behind the offensive line of the Prussian army.

He picked up the binoculars and pointed them at the flag.

"Hey, is that the Duke of Brunswick, the commander of Prussia? Everyone cheer up, the commander of the Prussian army has come to the front to supervise the battle in person! This wave will be fierce! Get up and shoot!"

After the command was issued, the French army, which was still in a relaxed state, tensed their faces and began to shoot one by one from left to right.

After the first wave of sequential shooting, the random shooting began.

With a livid face, Pu Jun marched forward on the beat of the drums, completely ignoring the teammates who kept falling.

The leading Prussian officer held his head high like a proud rooster.

The French army had already aimed at him, and the bullets kept hitting the soldiers around him.

Even the flag bearer who was following him fell down, but the officer grabbed the flag that was about to fall with quick eyes and hands, and carried the flag forward.

Seeing the officer's actions, Napoleon also turned his head and snatched the flag from the flag bearer's hand—he rushed down carrying the flag just now, and returned it to the flag bearer when he was in place.

Napoleon jumped out from behind the bunker carrying the flag, and stood between two barricades with the flag, facing the Prussian officer who was also carrying the flag.

Of course, the Prussian officer also saw Napoleon, and walked even more energetically.

Moreover, he is much taller than Napoleon, so raising the flag is naturally more imposing.

Noticing the "confrontation" between the commanders on both sides, the French soldiers began to stagger their shooting targets intentionally or unintentionally, and did not shoot the officer again.

As the distance gets closer, the shooting efficiency of the French army is increasing exponentially, and the Prussian army array continues to reduce its personnel.

Moreover, most of the French soldiers shot consciously aimed non-commissioned officers and officers. At this time, the number of officers and non-commissioned officers in the Prussian army was already very serious.

Because the officers in the front were hit, the officers in the back would make up for them. As a result, there were gradually no officers in the back row of the Prussian army.

Finally, the Prussian army in the back row began to turn around and flee, and the formation of the Prussian army slowly disintegrated as if they had been hit by a large disintegration technique.

In the end, the Prussian army ran down to the front row.

As a result, the non-commissioned officers in the front row finally all fell down, and the remaining soldiers scattered like birds and beasts.

The officer carrying the flag didn't change his face, and walked towards the French line with standard military steps.

Napoleon: "Stop shooting!"

The continuous gunfire stopped, but the cannonade continued.

A cannonball landed on Napoleon's left hand side, and the projectile jumped to record, and finally flew to the bridge behind Napoleon, smashed the railing of the wooden bridge and fell into the blue Danube.

Napoleon returned the flag in his hand to the standard bearer, drew his sword, and advanced towards the officer, finally resting the tip of the sword on the throat of the Prussian officer.

"Your bravery has earned our respect. You can return to where you started."

Napoleon spoke in French.

This Prussian officer is a colonel, and according to the Prussian military system, he must be a nobleman.

European aristocrats can speak French, even the Prussian Junkers with relatively poor families.

The Prussian held back for a few seconds and replied: "I'm sorry that I can't compete with you at the same level."

Napoleon said modestly: "No, you are already doing well, and we may not be able to withstand such a rush."

In fact, the current French army can really resist, because each French soldier has the will to fight, and it is not forced out by the officer corps.

But at this time, a word of humility seems to be graceful.

The Prussian replied: "I am already your prisoner. I will not participate in the subsequent battles, I promise."

After speaking, he turned around and carried the Prussian military flag and walked towards his starting position.

Napoleon retracted his long sword and sighed: "With such an officer corps, Prussia will be a terrible opponent in the future."

At this time, his chief of staff came up: "General, why don't you ask what his name is? Isn't it a basic etiquette to exchange numbers first?"

Napoleon: "Oh, I forgot. Hey, Prussian, what's your name?"

Although Napoleon called the Prussian "Hi" very impolitely, the other party turned around, planted the flag on the ground, and saluted a standard military salute: "My name is August Neihardt von Gernay. Senau, Monsieur Bonaparte!"

Although people have already called out "His Excellency Bonaparte", Napoleon still politely replied: "My name is Napoleon Bonaparte, and my name will eventually resound throughout Europe, just like my teacher!"

"May your wish come true!" Gneisenau put down his saluting hand, pulled up the flag and turned away.

Napoleon still wanted to reply a few words, and his subordinates shouted: "General, reinforcements have arrived! It is the first brigade!"

Napoleon turned his head and saw a group of French troops over the hill.

The sound of Roman hymns floated from the side of the French army.

Napoleon was overjoyed: "The most dangerous time has passed, and another victory is coming! There is no need to worry about defending the bridge. The next thing we should consider is how to drive the enemy from Ulm to the outside of the city, and then annihilate them !"

**
Alvinzi looked at the arriving French troops and sighed: "It is impossible to take back the wooden bridge. Order the troops to rely on the barricades in the city to defend! We haven't lost yet, we still have the city and the barricades!"

　Hey, I read Lonely Rock Chapter [-] after finishing the last chapter. If I read it first, Lasalle’s cavalry will be wiped out, and then his saber will be cut off, and only one person can take it. Holding a picked up bayonet, he stood beside the blue Danube facing the vast crowd of Austrians.

　　This is the art of paying homage, and now I can only play with a title stalk.
