11. Operation Sickle – 6

“I never thought I’d see those damn islander! Things like this change even in this world.”

Napoleon cliche Congretish weapon that had long plagued Napoleon and the French army in the other world.

Britain, which was one step away from the continent, and which had always been wary of the emergence of powers in Europe, and power, could not destroy each other.

‘Those cute islanders, born out of happiness.’

These were the first words deserved. Of course, for their enemy, the army, such remarks were short of the highest.

Due to the nature of parliamentary politics, which required to pay attention to public, shedding the blood should be as much. The rocket, with which British could enemance, was trulon.

As Britain had a goodilliam Congrely against Francther world. In days of tholeon himself d the French army to fatch rebels who in the Netherlands.

The situation at that time had been similar and different.


At the Battle of Heercurage the sparks, and explosions had poured out continuously. It had been an illusion of a meteor.

Thanks to this, the French artillery had the best environment to set up their cannons, but it was time to pay its price.

Due to the nature of the victory and defeat depended on every commander, and where the army forced to leave the wounded on the defeated soldiers had no time nor care of the wounded would become the victorious nation.

Although they would be captured by the regular army. Even if it was to get the enemies would give a place to sleep. The real battlefield, but those noticed by farmers or hyenas wandering around the predators.

In the midst of transporting the French wounded from the rear. The carts and wagons, safely and quickly removed the battlefield.

They retreated to the first aid and treatment. This was why no battle shot in the leg grabbed a bloody hand. The watchful guards approached to stop them.

At that time, wnced it for the first timoundered away great panic. Ete soldiers could not help it in the face of unknown fear.

‘I really had a lot of trouble to recover the officers and soldiers who lost minds at time.’

As he recalled the quickly reorganized his troops, he had to pay.

“Specifically, which?”

“Two horses are safe.”

“The warehouses next to it?”

“That’s right.”

“Then what happened?”

Michelle, who answered, was speechless for the time. She replied that she would, but could guess no report subordinates on matter. Napoleon was spinning, even though he was dissatisfied with the attitude of who had these issues.

‘If two warehouses, that are tens wide, were completely, then the whole area the cathedral… The wagons. This is getting better and better.’

It long before the to the cart nearby. Napoleon could confirm that.

“Of the 800 carts and wagons owned by the Corps’ supply units, 217 were damaged by the bombing. It seems that about 35 of them can be repaired or some of their parts can be transferred and used somewhere else.”

“That means that the rest are completely burnt down or destroyed.”

“I-I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”

At Napoleon’s cold words, Michel Ney bowed his head.

The damage to transport wagons and carts was a very painful problem in the corps. The reduction in avail supply were not only transporting for the soldiers, but also to feed.

The loss of supply wagons was not just restricting the movements of troops, but was also a serious problem that could threaten their lives and health. In short, it meant that the French army would not be able to follow the fleeing coalition forces after they used their fireworks.

Napoleon sighed slightly and gestured to him to leave.

‘It’s really messed up.’

Napoleon returned to north of the River and let out swear words as he looked at the ruined French army. The dket were insignifiuld show this forcted well and hit in large quantities.

As such, the number of death by the explosion of the thousands of Congreve fired by thesmall.

These were orders.

Having lost a lot of war supplies such as gunpowder, shells, wagons and carts carrying soldiers’ daily necessities, they could not chase the coalition even if they wanted to. Napoleon went around the battlefield, giving orders.

His eyes caught sight of a large group of French high-ranking officers.

“Seeing Arthur Wellesley running away after throwing away those expensive rockets, my resentment from the last battles seems to wash away, hahaha!”

“He ran away with his tail between his legs! It won’t be long before his title of ‘Iron Duke’ is changed to something closer to his real ability.”

“Although accurate of the damage is expected to have made pay a price again time.”

In any case, they did a lot of damage to the coalition forces. They had defeated them and had defended Burgos. With this, the officers were approaching quietly.

“Empire!”

The officers around him came to their senses and also took an angular salute, showing their tension. Napoleon calmly approached them, receivin.

“You guys.”

“You forgive us…”

“It’s not a mistake. I have abolished censorship of the press and art, and I am not trying to control the officers’ thoughts. You have right to speak your opinions and ideas.”

Napoleon spoke with a friendly while putting his hands on their shoulders. But as he continued, the officer’s shoulders hardened and their faces gradually turned pale.

“Based on your rank and affiliation, must have participated in the staff meeting with me and the marshals.”

“That’s right, Your Majesty!”

“Then you must know what strategies and I led from the beginning. What do you? Did today’s battle go as planned and give the results we wanted?”

“…I-I’m sorry! We were short-sighted.”

“Please forgive us!”

Napoleon grinned as he looked at them who were completely frightened.

It was like catching kids.

“There’s nothing wrong sy tactics and failing to predict the enemy’s tricks. I mean it.”

In the end, he was not anding officers who were talking as if they had won.

“You’re old, and stupid soldiers. With experience, it would be you to receive decorated with (the marsals). The future of you.”

“…Your Majesty…”

“If I were you, I would not care about the vain honor of considering worthless victories and defeats. Instead, I would analyze whythe last battle. Then the time we meet again, wouldn’t we win on the lessons? I could also develop.”


“…!!”

“The complacency and the arrogance of thinking about convenience are not suitable for those who will be responsible for the future of tver if you could be able to point out the deficiencies in my plans without hesitation, after learning like this.”

“This is advice that touches the heart… We will keep it in mind, Your Majesty!”

Napoleon returned to his bare busily moving around the barracks to arrange their belongings as they prepared for the troops’ withdrawal.

But the ones Napoleon was looking for were nowhere to be seen.

‘It seems that there are no officers doing their own analysis of the battle. Well, I kind of expected it, but…’

The battle was already officers to won recalled those sens, and sighed quietly.

‘Did the war dull a small victory that they are neglecting?’

There were still too much.
