King's Landing in France

Chapter 353 Doom of the Empire

An Ning was satisfied to see the French army appearing on the houses near the barricade, and began to attack the Austrian army from above.

The Austrians could not bear this attack, and quickly withdrew from the barricades.

An Ning turned to Napoleon and said, "See? This is our advantage now! Don't limit yourself to advancing along the main road, but make use of the complex laneways of the city."

A year ago, when the French army lacked training, they basically fought in the form of skirmishers. Everywhere they went, they were in skirmish formation. There was no need for drums and military music, and the number of officers was not enough.

In that case, the French army was able to advance and retreat in a certain way, and beat the Prussian-Austrian coalition forces to the ground.

Although the French army still lacks middle and senior officers at the school officer level, the non-commissioned officers below have been greatly enriched by being promoted from the front line of the war.

The French army led by non-commissioned officers can be scattered in the city like the later army, walking through the streets and windows, bypassing the fortified barricades, and attacking the enemy from above and behind.

This is how the army of the next generation crushes the army of this generation.

The Prussian-Austrian Allied Forces were unable to carry out this kind of combat. They could not get out after entering the alley, and most of the soldiers would run away.

After all, these soldiers are just flocks driven by the nobles, and they have no intention of fighting for their own nation.

After An Ning returned the command to Napoleon, Napoleon said excitedly: "I understand, our soldiers are wolves, while the enemy only officers and non-commissioned officers are shepherd dogs, and soldiers are sheep! Wolves can perform what sheep can't. tactics!"

An Ning said with a straight face: "Your analogy is very good. I will wait for your good news. How many days will it take you to take Ulm?"

"One day is enough!"

Napoleon patted his chest for assurance.

An Ning nodded: "Then I'll go back and drink champagne and wait for your good news."

Napoleon is now the commander of the army, but An Ning still wants to promote him as a commander in charge of one aspect.

For example, let him command the French army in the direction of Spain, and let him experience how bad things are in Spain.

Spain has not yet gone to war with France, but there is no guarantee that there will be no war in the future.

After all, in the original history, the anti-French alliance was originally a joint strangulation of the progressive republic by all feudal countries.

It is "all reactionary forces have united", Spain is now a feudal country, and from An Ning's perspective, it is a high probability event that he will join the war in the future.

In short, it is necessary for Napoleon to make more contributions.

Berthier stepped forward: "At this time, your personal command can effectively boost the morale of our army."

An Ning glanced at Berthier with dissatisfaction.

The chief of staff had a suddenly realized expression: "Oh, that's right, I understand, I completely understand!"

An Ning found Berthier's expression change very interesting, so she asked, "What do you understand?"

"Give our senior military officers the opportunity to gain experience, Your Excellency is really far-sighted."

An Ning smiled: "You are really good at talking, let's go. By the way, the logistics of Napoleon's troops have to keep up. When I entered the city, I saw that many people were starving and emaciated. Give them enough supplies.

"Also, in order to take care of the emotions of the troops, other troops will not enter the city for the time being, but will advance downstream along the Danube, approaching Dillingen and Donauworth!

"If these cities are not garrisoned by the enemy, cross the river and control the crossings; if there are enemy garrisons, confront the enemy across the river.

"Spread our seven armies along the Danube, and scout out the fortifications of the various places.

"We are going to find a weakly defended ferry to cross the Danube, and then go straight to Augsburg and make a big dumpling!"

Berthier nodded repeatedly.

After An Ning finished speaking, she said as usual: "Repeat it again!"

Berthier immediately repeated it, and it was the kind of combat plan that had been summarized and organized clearly and could be executed step by step.

An Ning nodded: "Okay, go and execute it. Fanny, where is Fanny? Set me a table by the Danube River. I want to enjoy the scenery of the Danube River while watching Napoleon destroy the Prussian-Austrian coalition forces in the city."

Fanny glanced suspiciously at the smoky city at this time: "You said... the scenery of the Danube? This scenery has long since been ruined, right?"

An Ning thought, "I'm here to maintain the character design, what do you know?" On the surface, she said: "If you only look at the Danube and ignore the situation on the other side of the river, the scenery is really good."

"Okay, I won't hold you back if you have the pleasure." Fanny said helplessly.

After a while, An Ning left the city, sat by the bridge guarded by La Salle, and watched the Danube play with a glass of wine.

On the main road next to him, the troops that had come for reinforcements turned left one by one, and drove out along the Danube River.

Berthier placed the headquarters at a place across the river from Anning, and there were always messengers running across the wooden bridge on horseback, and they did not forget to salute when they passed by Anning.

Just looking at this scene, it is indeed quite peaceful.

Alvinzi couldn't understand what happened for a while. The effective barricade defense suddenly became unreliable, and news came one after another that the barricades were lost.

Worst of all, the troops retreating from the barricades ran straight out of the city, spreading frightening rumors as they went:

"Here comes Frost!"

"Our army is defeated! Our army is defeated!"

Alvinzi was so angry that he ordered his guards to arrest those bastards who spread rumors and shoot them if they caught them.

As a result, the guards quickly reported that there were too many deserters, and everyone claimed that Frost was coming, and it was impossible to catch him.

The most annoying thing is that the guard itself also ran away a lot of people.

Frost is like a sword of Damocles hanging over the head of the Prussian-Austrian Allied Forces, and we must worry about it being stabbed at any time.

Alvinzi lost his temper: "These shit! Will the French army only need to plant a Frost scarecrow in the future, and they will turn around and run like this when they see it?"

Alvinzi's chief of staff was still there to show his humor: "I'm afraid it's just a scarecrow. You have to wear a uniform and an eagle flag."

Alvinzi glared at the chief of staff with murderous eyes, and finally told him to shut up.

Then the Prussian commander-in-chief, the Duke of Brunswick, said: "How did they break through the barricades? Did they use cannons to approach and shoot? Even if Frost really arrived, he couldn't solve the barricades so efficiently, right?"

Alvin Qi shook his head: "I don't know, maybe Frost really summoned the Roman theater troupe to break through our barricades with a tortoise formation formed by shields.

"This Frost, there is always something new! He can always surprise us!"

After speaking, Alvin Qi sighed.

"Maybe, the empire has really met its doom this time."
