Make France Great Again

"General Canrobert, please allow me to lead the Zhuav regiment to kill these guys who don't know the heights of the sky!"

Facing the provocation of the Cossack cavalry, Brigadier General Bazin, who could not hold back his anger, rode up to General Canrobert and suggested in a low voice.

As the forward commander of the expeditionary force, General Canrobert did not have any emotional fluctuations in his heart, and silently calculated the distance between the two and the impact of the wind on the bullets.

no! This distance is still not good enough! There is no way to effectively annihilate them all!

After General Canrobert came to a conclusion silently, he shook his head and signaled Bazin not to be excited.

After seeing that the Zhuav Regiment still had no movement, the Cossack cavalry troops opposite the Zhuav Regiment gradually became bolder and began to test the shooting range of the Zhuav Regiment bit by bit.

Nearly a hundred Cossack cavalry approached the Zhuav regiment and spread out in an arc.

When the Cossack cavalry arrived at a position about 300 meters away from the Zhuav regiment, Canrobert immediately made up his mind.

He stretched out his right hand and waved lightly. Brigadier General Bazin, who was standing aside, ran up to the company commander of the horizontal formation and shouted: "Fire!"

"Fire!" The company commander also shouted when he saw this.

The Zhuav regiment who received the instruction did not hesitate at all and pulled the trigger together.

Intense gunshots rang out from the Zhuav regiment camp. The bullets rotated along the rifling in the muzzle under the initial velocity given by the gunpowder, and then rushed towards the Cossack cavalry at a discharge speed exceeding the speed of sound.

At such a speed, the Cossack cavalry was unable to make an effective response strategy.

They were still smiling playfully one second, but they felt a sharp pain in their chests the next second. The red blood stained the green military uniforms. The war horses also let out a scream, and both the man and the horse were shaking heavily. Fell to the ground.

The Cossack cavalry, which originally numbered nearly a hundred people, lost more than 30 people after a round of shooting.

The remaining Cossack cavalry looked at the Zhuav regiment opposite with a look of horror. They didn't understand why the Zhuav regiment could shoot so accurately at such a long distance.

Under the horrified gaze of the Cossack cavalry, the first row of infantry squatted down to load ammunition, and the second row of infantry raised their rifles towards the Cossack cavalry.

"Second team, fire!"

Brigadier General Bazin's instructions once again reached the ears of the Zhuav regiment, and the members of the second row of Zhuav once again pulled the trigger.

After the gunfire, more than 30 Cossack cavalry fell to the ground.

The remaining 30 or so Cossack cavalrymen turned their horses around without any hesitation to escape from the battlefield. However, they didn't know that it was too late to escape now.

"Team 3, shoot!"

Brigadier General Bazin's angry roar reached the Cossacks' ears again, and more than 20 Cossack cavalry fell down with the third gunshot.

Only less than ten Cossack cavalrymen were able to escape from the guns of the Zhuav Regiment. Looking at the group of Cossack cavalry fleeing hastily in front of them, the Zhuav Regiment burst into cheers.

At this point, the French army's fear of the Cossacks was completely eliminated. Connobel nodded with satisfaction and gave the order to clear the battlefield to Brigadier General Bazin beside him.

Brigadier General Bazin quickly sent personnel to clear the battlefield, and then reported the death toll of the Cossack cavalry to General Canrobert.

The whole journey takes less than an hour.

"Your regiment did a great job!" General Canrobert praised General Bazin.

Immediately under the order of General Canrobert, the Joauf regiment returned to its original position.

Samoset and others, who were bystanders of this war, were also amazed by the skillful skills and neat movements of the Zhuav regiment.

Although their team can also repel this group of Cossack cavalry like the Zhuav Regiment, it is far from the level of skilled cooperation like the Zhuav Regiment. This kind of cooperation requires a tacit understanding that can be developed through thousands of battlefield cooperations.

Neither the Scottish Fusiliers nor the Sardinian Chasseurs have the same large-scale actual combat experience as the Juavs.

After all, not everyone has a training ground that is close to home and where rebellions are constant.

After reorganizing the team, General Canrobert led the troops to continue advancing until they arrived less than 2 kilometers away from the Silistra Fortress. Major General Canrobert ordered the troops to stop.

While riding on the horse, he picked up the telescope again, looked through the lens of the telescope at the flag on the Silistra Fortress in the distance.

It is the symbol of the Ottoman Empire! It seems that Silistra Fortress has not been lost yet!

Connobel muttered silently in his heart, and then ordered the troops to build trenches here to meet the upcoming Russian army attack.

Canrobert was to attract a portion of the Russian army here, thus sharing the pressure on the fortress of Silistra.

As long as Canrobert holds on for a few days near Silistra Fortress, the follow-up troops will surely be able to arrive here.

By that time, the Russian army will face the same dilemma currently faced by the Silistra Fortress.

Just when Canrobert ordered the troops to build trenches and wait for the arrival of the Russian army, Prince Paskevich, who was located in the Russian base camp near Silistra Fortress, also received news that the British and French forces had arrived at Silistra Fortress. Nearby information.

It was the Cossack cavalry who escaped from the battlefield who conveyed this information. However, the information given to Prince Paskevich by this group of Cossack cavalry was very different from the actual situation of the French army led by Major General Canrobert.

"What? You have detected a team of 300,000 people heading towards the Silistra Fortress!" Prince Paskevich asked the Cossack cavalry in a questioning tone.

"That's right! Sir, there are indeed 300,000 people!" the Cossack cavalry replied to Prince Paskevich confidently.

Fearing the punishment of their superiors, the group of Cossack cavalry played word games with Prince Paskevich.

The number of 300,000 people was the information he got from the mouths of captured Turkish soldiers, and they did not know the true number of General Canrobert's troops.

"Okay! I understand, let's go!" Prince Paskievich waved his hand, and the two Cossack cavalry left Paskievich's camp.

"300,000 people? How is that possible! Those two guys must be afraid of being punished, so they deliberately exaggerated the intelligence!" Prince Paskevich, who was alone in the camp, said to himself, with mockery on his lips. smile.

This smile was not only a mockery of the two Cossacks who lied about military information, but also a mockery of the entire Russian Imperial Army.

In a team where even the investigators had to lie to avoid being punished, how much real information could he, the prince, have, and how much real information could His Majesty Nicholas I, who was far away in Moscow, have.

Perhaps the information he handed over to His Majesty Nicholas I had already been transferred by some people who did not want to face the current situation of the Russian Empire before it arrived.

Or perhaps His Majesty Nicholas I did not want to obtain real information at all.

Thinking of this, Prince Paskevich couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation for the situation of the Russian Empire. This feeling of powerlessness, knowing that the building was about to collapse, but having no way to do anything, filled Prince Paskevich's heart. Paskiewicz had no choice but to calm down and think calmly.

Prince Paskevich had no choice but to order General Gorchakov, who was supervising the battle at the front, to be called over.

When General Gorchakov arrived at the camp, Prince Paskevich was once again lying on the bed and looked at Gorchakov with a worried look on his face and said: "How is the situation on the front line? Our army has Is there no possibility of breaking through Silistra Fortress?”

General Gorchakov shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "I'm afraid it will be difficult to break the fortress in the near future!"

"Damn it! We have killed countless people here, why can't we break it!" Prince Paskevich complained self-deprecatingly.

Since the launch of the general offensive at the end of February, the Guards Division, the Thirteenth Army, and the Fourteenth Army have launched no less than thirty attacks, tilting thousands of tons of artillery shells towards the Silistra Fortress.

But there is still no way to break through the Silistra Fortress... Not to mention the Silistra Fortress, even the "Tabia" in front of the Silistra Fortress cannot be broken.

Moreover, the human losses caused by the Ottoman Empire to the Russian Empire exceeded the expectations of the Russian generals.

Nearly two weeks of crazy bastion-munching behavior caused the Russian Empire to lose more than 8,000 soldiers (including 3,000 dead and a total of 5,000 sick and injured), and nearly a quarter of the Guards Division remained on the "Tabiya" ridge. Below the fort, a small half of the Thirteenth Regiment remained in the trenches.

So much so that Prince Paskevich had to abandon his previous arrangement and pull the Fourteenth Army into the attack on Silistra Fortress.

However, within a few days, some troops of the Fourteenth Army also suffered heavy casualties.

The number of casualties continues to rise. Find the book at www.zhaoshuyuan.com. The Thirteenth Army, the Fourteenth Army, and the Guards Division troops are quite complaining about Paskevich. Rumors began to spread in the military camp that Paskevich was There are rumors that Prince Vittoria deliberately allowed these three armies to die so that his own Polish army could reap the benefits.

Prince Paskevich, who was originally dissatisfied with the storming requested by Moscow, was even more heartbroken by these rumors.

He simply did not go to the front line to supervise the battle, and asked General Gorchakov of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Legion to supervise the battle. He himself sat in the military camp and thought about how to get the Russian army out of this meat grinder-style battle.

However, after thinking about it for several days, Prince Paskevich could not think of any way.

"Your Excellency Commander, Silistra Fortress is an area that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is normal for the attack to be frustrated!"
