Make France Great Again

Looking at the British army retreating like a tide, Commander Raglan couldn't help but sigh.

The army of the British Kingdom used to be so brave and good at fighting, but now the British army cannot even conquer a small highland.

Is this still the British army he knows? Why does it look so much like the Turkish army!

Just when Commander Raglan was mourning Britain's loss of martial virtue, the Duke of Cambridge, standing next to Commander Raglan, quickly spoke to comfort him: "Your Excellency, this is just a small probing attack! If you say If I feel dissatisfied, I will immediately organize my personnel to continue attacking the high ground opposite."

"Forget it! Forget it!" Commander Raglan shook his head and responded to the Duke of Cambridge: "You must reorganize the withdrawn troops immediately. You must not let this failure affect the morale of our army!"

"Yes! Your Excellency, Commander!" After obeying Commander Raglan's instructions, the Duke of Cambridge saluted Commander Raglan and turned to leave.

Commander Raglan, who was riding a horse, looked solemnly at the Kazan Infantry Brigade on the multi-faceted bastion in the distance, then sighed, turned around, and retreated.

Prince Menshikov, who was stationed on the top of the Kurgan Mountain, used a telescope to see Commander Raglan in the distance wearing a bright red military uniform. After turning away, he smiled on his face and shouted: "We are victorious!"

After hearing Prince Menshikov's cry, the two surrounding staff officers and a group of soldiers also shouted "We are victorious!"

One passed to ten, ten to a hundred, and the call for victory came from the entire Kurgan Mountain.

After hearing the cheers of the Russian Empire, the morale of the British army on the north bank of the Alma River inevitably dropped.

However, this decline in morale did not last long. Under the riding boots and whips of British officers, these "animals" of the British Kingdom soon forgot these things and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the next war. middle.

…

Just as Commander Raglan was riding towards the coalition headquarters, General Pelissier also came towards him.

The commanders of the two armies of Britain and France met in the middle of the road. Commander Raglan curiously asked General Pelissier: "Commander Pelissier, where are you going!"

"I was going to find you! Commander Raglan!" General Pellissier responded to Commander Raglan.

"Looking for me?" Commander Raglan looked at General Pelissier doubtfully.

"That's right! My staff has formulated a plan to capture Alma, and I want to discuss it with you!" Pellissier pointed to the document tucked under his arm and said to Commander Raglan.

"Then let's go to the headquarters and discuss it in detail!" Commander Raglan responded to Commander Pelissier.

"Okay!" Pelissier nodded and replied.

Pellissier and Commander Raglan came to the coalition headquarters, which was a house built on the highlands 5 kilometers northwest of the Alma River. The owner of the house had taken his family to Simfero before the arrival of the four-nation coalition. Bol.

Naturally, everything in the house was forcibly requisitioned by the coalition forces to serve as the headquarters of the coalition headquarters.

When General Pelissier and Commander Raglan arrived at the castle, La Maramore, Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and Omar Pasha of the Ottoman Empire were already waiting for their arrival in the courtyard.

The commanders-in-chief of the expeditionary forces of the four countries sat on a round table. General Pelissier spread the document in his hand on the round table, and then placed the document that had been divided into four parts in the folder on them. Everyone said in front of them: "Watch first and then talk!"

The three people present read page after page of the plan brought by General Pelissier. After a while, Commander Raglan said: "I don't agree with using Kurgan Mountain as a feint attack target!"

"Commander Raglan, do you have any different ideas about this plan?" General Pellissier asked Raglan with an open-minded expression.

"It is undeniable! This plan is indeed an almost perfect plan, but I think we should target Akul Mountain and Telegraph Mountain at the same time, and launch a devastating attack on the Russian Empire on the mountain!" Commander Raglan He opened his mouth and responded to General Pelissier.

"However, this approach may lead to a large number of casualties. A frontal attack is too unwise!" Pellissier retorted to Commander Raglan, then pointed to the map and said to Commander Raglan: "We only need to contain Inhabit some of the Russian Imperial soldiers on Kurgan Mountain so that they cannot move! In this way, our remaining troops can flank the left and right in a pincer-like offensive! We will definitely be able to annihilate the Russian Empire guarding Kurgan and Telegraph Mountain in one fell swoop. army!"

"We have much more troops than the Russian Empire! Why take risks when we can push ahead?" Commander Raglan also replied plausibly.

Although Commander Raglan said not to take risks but to be steady, in fact Commander Raglan was thinking about how to get the honor of conquering Kurgan Mountain.

Pelissier's plan was indeed a practical one, but it was somewhat unfriendly to the Kingdom of Britain.

If Pelissier's plan is followed, the honor of conquering Kurgan Mountain will most likely not belong to the British Kingdom alone, because the British Kingdom will not be able to implement Pelissier's plan with its existing troops.

This is very unfriendly to Commander Raglan, who has always wanted to wash away his shame.

"In that case, let's do what you want!" General Pelissier took a step back, pointing to the map on the table and said: "Early tomorrow morning, Britain and Turkey will attack the Kurgan Mountains with all their strength, and France and Saudi Arabia will The army is attacking the heights of Telegraph Hill!"

"yes!"

After the discussion, everyone returned to their respective camps for the next step of deployment.

That night, General Pellissier, the acting commander of France, came to the camp of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

"Welcome, welcome!" After receiving the report from his own soldiers, La Maramore, the Minister of War of the Kingdom of Sardinia, hurried out of the camp to greet General Pelissier.

"Minister Maramore, I want to talk to you about tomorrow's attack! I wonder if you have time!" General Pelissier asked directly.

"Of course I have time!" La Maramore immediately responded to Pelissier, and then entered the camp with General Pelissier.

La Maramore, who had just sat down, immediately asked General Pelissier: "Coffee or tea!"

"Coffee!" Pelissier responded to La Maramore.

La Maramore called his adjutant and ordered his adjutant to prepare two cups of coffee and some pastries specially transported from the Apennine Peninsula.

No matter where, no matter where. The Kingdom of Sardinia always maintains a style of luxurious enjoyment.

Of course, this situation is not limited to the Kingdom of Sardinia. The living standards of all high-level officers, including those in France, are severely divided by the lower classes.

However, the Kingdom of Sardinia was even more fragmented.

Desserts and coffee from Italy soon entered the camp, and Pelissier and La Maramore discussed while eating pastries.

"I plan to put all the regiments from our two countries that are good at mountain warfare into the plan to attack Telegraph Mountain!" Pelissier spread the map in front of La Maramore and pointed at the map. Er said: "These regiments will conduct climbing operations near the cliff. When they climb to the top of the mountain, they will immediately outflank the defenders on Telegraph Mountain!

During the period when these regiments are landing, I will send my Guards Division to deter the troops on Telegraph Hill, making them mistakenly think that we will attack Telegraph Hill from the front, so that they will not be able to detect our deployment on the flanks. After all our mountain troops arrive on the south bank, it will be time for us to launch a general attack on the Russian troops in the high mountains.

By then, those regiments will become an important force in attacking the Highland Mountains."

Pelissier told La Maramore about his plan that had been cut in half by Commander Raglan. La Maramore pondered for a moment and then nodded and responded to Pelissier: "Commander Pelissier, I agree with your idea!"

"It would be great to get your consent!" A smile appeared on General Pelissier's face, and he stretched out his hand and said to La Maramore.

General Pelissier and General La Maramore shook hands with each other, and then General Pelissier returned to the camp under the escort of La Maramore.

By the way, after the meeting, Commander Raglan and Omar Pasha did not communicate like Pelissier and La Maramore.

Therefore, in the minds of two people, each has his own set of attack plans.

…

Just when General Pelissier was about to lie down on the camp bed and prepare to rest, Brigadier General Trochu appeared in General Pelissier's camp.

"What happened?" General Pelissier asked Brigadier General Trochu in confusion.

"General Pelissier, Marshal Saint-Arnaud is awake!" Brigadier General Trochu responded to General Pelissier excitedly.

After listening to Brigadier General Trochu's words, General Pellissier's eyes flashed with loneliness.

Marshal Saint-Arnaud's awakening meant that he, the acting commander-in-chief, would once again become the commander of the Third Division.

Although Pellissier was a little unwilling in his heart, he still had a joyful smile on his face. He hurriedly got up from the bed and followed Brigadier General Trochu to the health resort of Marshal St. Arnaud.

At this time, Marshal Saint-Arnaud still looked like he was about to die. Breathing heavily, he expressed his gratitude to Pellissier for taking over his position and maintaining the stability of France when he was critically ill.

"Please don't say that! Since you have woken up, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com Then Marshal should be the commander-in-chief of France!" General Pellissier respectfully addressed Saint-Arnaud in front of him. The marshal said.

"General Pellissier, do you think I can command the army in this state?" Marshal Saint-Arnault weakly responded to General Pellissier: "Since they chose you to hold this position , then I hope you will not refuse. Like me, you are one of the first generals to support His Majesty, and you are qualified to lead them! Besides..."

Marshal Saint-Arnaud paused and lowered his voice to Pelissier: "Don't you want to get a marshal's scepter?"

Pelissier couldn't help but take a deep breath when he thought of the marshal's scepter. A marshal is the highest honor a general can receive, so Pelissier naturally wanted to get a marshal's scepter.

Even if the empire's marshal's scepter is far less valuable than the original empire.
