Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 2278
At the beginning of 1695, the French gathered a large army in Flanders to form a protective belt from the River Lys to Skeld. At the same time, the French general Villeroy stationed his headquarters near Tournai, and Marshal Beaules led about 12,000 people to station in Namur.
On the other hand, the British and Dutch armies under William's command were gathered near Ghent, the Marquis of Bavaria was stationed at Brussels, and a small army mainly composed of Bremenburgers was not far from Humberside.
On the one hand, William sits at the headquarters and is responsible for issuing offensive orders. On the other hand, he personally visits the battlefield to command operations. The then Bank of England President Michael Godfrey sneaked to the front line to watch the battle without the order of William II. William III responded. Very annoyed, he asked him to withdraw immediately, but Michael felt that the king was on the front line, and he had no reason to back down. Then the cannons of the French fortress were fired, and because of the range problem, they exploded very close to Michael, and Michael immediately crawled on the ground in fright. At the feet of William III. Although Michael was a laughing stock when the news got back to London, at least he wasn't bloodied by shells like Napoleon met his new command's aide-de-camp at Toulon.
In the history written by Tacitus, it talks about the Flavius rebellion that occurred in Italy during the reign of Vespasianus. Simply put, the soldiers who suppressed the rebellion asked for a kind of blood called "Varium". This is different from asking the commander to reward money during the triumphal ceremony. The shoe buckles of Roman infantry are easy to wear and have to be replaced frequently, so this money can also be called "shoe buckle money". If you don't give this money, soldiers That is to say, if you don’t have shoes to wear, you won’t be able to set off, but the commanders at that time didn’t give money or food, and Tacitus thought they embezzled it.
Immediately after Napoleon led his troops across the Alps, a battalion mutinied on the pretext of not having boots on. He had also seen military mutinies when he was a pawn in Lyon, asking officers of noble origin to ask for "gray income". Gaius Julius Caesar issued silver coins directly when mobilizing before the war, with an elephant stepping on a snake printed on it, representing Caesar's justice in attacking Pompey.
However, the situation that Napoleon encountered at that time required money but no money, and food but no food. He did not embezzle it like the Roman commander written by Tacitus, but had none at all.
The Flavius commander sent out his cavalry to make a reconnaissance all over Umbria to see if it was safe to approach the Apennines. At the same time, the Guards also left Rome. They believed that the rebels had occupied the Apennine mountain road, which means that both the rebels and the suppressors thought that the other party had occupied the Apennine mountain road.
Due to its geographical location, the Kingdom of Sardinia is known as the gatekeeper of the Alps. Fortresses have been built on all the mountain passes of Piedmont in successive dynasties. Fortress warfare was already difficult to fight, not to mention the situation of the French at that time could not withstand a strong attack one by one.
Mont Blanc is the highest peak of the Alps. The Alps extend from here to the Adriatic Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. rises and continues to the vicinity of Rome. So Mount San Zeacomo is not only the end of a mountain range, but also the beginning of a mountain range. Savona is near that place. The location of this seaport and fortress is very appropriate. It can be used as an army stronghold or a warehouse. In this place, the French army will have supplies. Similarly, the defenders in this place can also rely on these supplies to wait for work. Not only does he have twice the number of French troops, but he also has a steady stream of reinforcements at any time. Sardinian dispatched, no matter how he looked at it, he was able to send these "beggars" away with ease.
It was Augereau, Masséna, and Lagarpe who were in charge of attacking this fortress. The first French fencer was tall and his attack was as fierce as his sword in that battle. The defenders were driven out of the gorge and surrounded, leaving the Austrian general and his rearguard to find a ruined castle fortified themselves, desperately counting on the Sardinians to save them.
Napoleon said in his post-war mobilization that the Italian Front was like a flood in the Apennines, and some people compared the flood to a beast. Hunters often put a piece of meat on the trap, and when a hungry beast sees it, it can't help being tempted to eat it, and then it falls into the trap.
Ulm is the first material warehouse after crossing the mountain, but the caravan sent information that the Austrians buried explosives in Ulm. If Napoleon set up the command post in the city, he would have to fight with these people. The materials exploded into the sky together.
Even if the intelligence has been inquired through the spies in advance, the temporary actions of the enemy will make the intelligence untrue, and a false intelligence will lead to changes in the direction of the entire battle.
It's not easy to keep communications open on the battlefield. Fortunately, she is not in charge of this. The last time there was a conflict in Switzerland, she was responsible for keeping the mail from Ney and Paris arriving smoothly, and she hardly did anything. The main job was still in charge of the subordinates. And she built a road with wooden tracks, improved the land transportation in the Mont Blanc department, and built a carriage factory, which was not done by herself, but by Henri Petty. Most of the time she was "Sit in town" there like a mascot.
She didn't know how much "freedom" Bonaparte gave Ney, but what he forbade was for the general to leave the team without authorization, just like he himself returned to Paris from Egypt to launch the coup d'état. Fortunately, Georgiana is a woman, and she is easy to subdue. If a man tells him that he is a burden, his attitude will be different.
Someone in a French newspaper compared "King Lear" with "Antony and Cleopatra". Even though Cleopatra died later and her body was tied up in a chariot, the Romans were still obsessed with Cleopatra, but the three daughters of King Lear made it difficult to like them, just like in the lines It is said that ungrateful children bite the heart more than the serpent's teeth.
The Bank of England was formed by William III, not only with Dutch loans, but also as a financial basis for Britain to take over the central role of the Dutch Republic and the Bank of Amsterdam in global commerce.
Because Mary II died without heirs in 1694, and William III co-ruled England as a son-in-law, even if he had children with other women, he could not change this. According to the "Act of Succession to the Throne", Princess Anne became the last surviving successor of the Stuart dynasty. William III will lose the crown.
This was decided by the English Parliament itself, without the advice of Ireland and Scotland. In 1701, the Spanish War of the Throne broke out, and the last king of the Spanish Habsburg family gave Spain to Philip of France when he was dying. As Louis XIV recognized James II and his son's claim to the throne, he also alienated William III. In this case, in order to prevent the merger of France and Spain, William III united Austria, Prussia and other countries to launch the Spanish Succession War.
Pomona and Severus met a group of French soldiers when they were exploring in the mountains of the Alps. They were going to Italy to participate in the War of the Spanish Crown, but because they got lost in the mountains and were trapped there due to snow, they ended up going to Italy. He paid a heavy price and wiped out the monsters in the mountains.
Because there were too many big-headed monsters in the maze, Severus used magic to "awaken" the skeletons buried there. They were immune to the despair brought by the big-headed monsters, and they were already dead.
She has been ignoring the fact that both the Salem Incident in 1692 and the War of the Spanish Crown involved William III.
Grindelwald wanted to use the resurrection stone to create an army of ghouls, but was stopped by Albus. This may be for Grindelwald's good, because you don't know what it will cost to use this power.
In the story of the three brothers, both the eldest and the second brother gave their lives, but the process was different. The eldest was in his sleep, maybe still remembering his victory in his dream, while the second brother committed suicide. He experienced the loss of his lover and found it again. , Gain and lose again.
At this time, the girls laughed. Matilda, Leila, and Ferril walked into the restaurant. They were surprised to see Georgiana.
"lady……"
"I bought breakfast, let's eat." Georgiana smiled and said, "We will be very busy today."
"Don't you live there?" asked Matilda.
"I was at home last night and didn't go anywhere." She continued to smile and said, "You can all testify for me."
Matilda said nothing, Leyla tugged at her sleeve, and the girls sat down at the table to eat.
The atmosphere was once as quiet as a tomb. Originally, according to noble etiquette, one should not talk while eating, but it was Leila who started the conversation, and they started chatting again.
Georgiana ignored them and was still reading the newspaper. She was wearing men's clothes and sitting in the master's seat. The picture looked like breakfast in an ordinary squire's home.
