Napoleon II Reborn

(The first few chapters are not well written. Perhaps, as a friend said, Xiaoyu really does not have the talent to be a bad guy, but please support Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu will work hard!)

The supreme commander of the Russian army stationed in Vape is General Ivan's old partner Lieutenant General Karbayev, a little old man in his 50s, more than ten years younger than Ivan. Compared with Ivan's prudence, Karbayev advocates offense more, and believes that the best defense is offense. He and Ivan and Kutuzov are known as Russia's most outstanding military generals. The trio also represent the three ideas of military tactics. That is, Karbayev's offensive thinking, Ivan's defensive thinking, and Kutuzov's thinking is both.

Because Russia's current national strength has been greatly damaged, it has to take a defensive position in the war. Therefore, Ivan, who has quite a lot of experience in defensive warfare, has taken the post of supreme commander of the Russian army's front line as a matter of course. As for the commander of Vape, Kutuzov should have been more competent than Karbayev, but because of the failure of the last battle, Kutuzov was also greatly implicated and is still left idle at home. , so Karbayev was able to serve as the commander of Vape.

Ivan is also very aware of Karbayev's personality. He knows that he is a person who will not wait for others to attack. He often asks him to calm down. Russia is not as good as it used to be. Under such circumstances, he will attack the French. It is undoubtedly impatient to live. They knew from the soldiers who survived the last battle how sophisticated the French army's weapons were and how fierce the artillery fire was. What interested Ivan the most was being portrayed by the soldiers as a fire-breathing monster. He learned from other places that it is actually a new type of weapon of the French army, a terrifying weapon that can fire bullets continuously. Under this terrifying weapon, the crowd tactics basically have no effect .

When the French army reached the Narew River on January 2, Karbayev was planning to take advantage of the French army's unstable foothold to launch a surprise attack, but the French cavalry corps had been patrolling the front and flanks of the army, and The pressure on Vape has been maintained. Since the 50,000 Cossack cavalry were all wiped out in Slubice, the Russian cavalry has also experienced a shortage. Except for the dragoons and cuirassiers who defended Moscow, there are only 70,000 cavalry left in the country, of which only the Cossacks Twenty thousand, excluding the cavalry defending other places, there are only 20,000 cavalry on the front line this time, and the Cossacks only accounted for 10,000. Karbayev also only has 5,000, but the 5,000 are all Cossack cavalry. The Murat Cavalry Corps of the French Army, although it is still not full of members, has recovered to 15,000 after this period of replenishment. Although the individual quality of the Cossack cavalry is better than that of the French Army, the number He was at a disadvantage, so Karbayev had to suppress his fighting spirit. Although he advocated offense, he was not a fool either.

Knowing that Karbayev, who is not as powerful as the French army now, would not let it go like this, so there was a sneak attack in the early morning of January 3. In order to successfully implement this sneak attack plan, Karbayev gathered all the 5,000 Cossack cavalry in his hands, and selected hundreds of elite soldiers to clear the French sentries on the front line.

Days of heavy snow provided a very good cover for the Russian army. After hundreds of elite Russian soldiers put on white blankets, they completely merged with the surrounding environment. In addition, they moved very slowly. You can't find it, especially in the dark.

The Russian army's offensive started at one o'clock in the morning. According to Karbayev's vision, hundreds of soldiers were selected to deal with the French sentries, and then the Cossack cavalry launched an attack on the French army. In the absence of sentinel warning, the French army did not even have time to react to the impact of the Russian Cossack cavalry. In the dark, the advantages of the French army's weapons will not be brought into play at all, and the fierce Cossack cavalry will become a nightmare on the battlefield. I have to say that Karbayev's battle plan is very good. If it succeeds, the French army will suffer heavy losses even if it is not defeated. At that time, it will be very difficult to attack Vape.

But God is obviously not on their side. Their very bad plan was seen through, and it was Sergeant Andrew of the Guard Battalion who discovered the Russian army. After the gunfire, Karbayev realized that tonight's plan had been exposed, and immediately ordered the cavalry to mount their horses and prepare to charge. And those Russian troops who were close to the French sentinels also threw away their camouflage almost when the guns fired, and rushed towards the French army frantically. But the situation here was obviously discovered by Andrew's other comrades-in-arms, and they rushed to support Andrew. For a while, gunshots rang out. Although Andrew's weapons are much more advanced than the Russian army, their number is far less than that of the Russian army. As a last resort, they had to retreat while fighting. Anyway, the gunshots here must have been heard by the troops behind, and they must be preparing to counterattack the Russian army.

The Russian Cossack cavalry is worthy of being one of the most powerful cavalry. It took only 3 minutes for them to form an offensive formation and then launched an attack. They were located only 3 kilometers away from the place where the French army camped, and it only took 5 to 7 minutes for the cavalry to charge at full speed. "Although it was discovered, it is impossible for the French army to organize a defense line in such a short period of time. I still have a good chance." Karbayev comforted himself.

But what he didn't expect was that the 88th Army completed the assembly in only a few minutes, and quickly marched into the position. The mortars and heavy machine guns were also quickly set up, revealing the hideous muzzle and muzzle. Commanders at all levels also quickly arrived at their command posts, ready to start counterattacks at any time. And several other legions were also gathering quickly, among which Murat's cavalry legion was the fastest. They pulled out their horses from the stables one after another, lined up, and prepared to go into battle.

The Russian army came very quickly, and after only two or three minutes, they appeared in Xiao Jie's field of vision. Looking at the blackness and hearing the roar like thunder, it makes people feel scalp numb.

"The mortar is ready to fire, position, rapid fire in 3 minutes." The artillery observer ordered after seeing that the Russian army was about to enter the firing range. Because Xiao Jie made the runner mark to shoot Zhu Yuan before, that's why the artillery reacted so quickly.

"Fire." With the commander's order, nearly a hundred mortars began to roar. Shells slammed into the fast-moving Russian Cossack cavalry one by one. Under the dense offensive formation of the Russian army, basically every shell will take a few lives. The 3-minute rapid fire completely wiped out the Russian army in the direction. At least thousands of Russian casualties were caused. But the Cossack cavalry, who had always ignored life and feared death, seemed not to care about the heavy casualties, and continued to attack frantically.

After entering the range of the heavy machine guns, the heavy machine guns also started firing one after another, forming a fire net in front of the Russian army one by one, and the infantry also started shooting at this time. Many Russian troops have rushed to the place less than 50 meters away from the position. "Grenades, prepare, throw." Rows of grenades entered the Russian offensive line under the command of the officers, blowing up many Russian troops to the ground, and then being trampled into meat paste by the companions who rushed up later.

Under the fierce firepower of the French army, the offensive of the Russian army was finally contained, and the French army was 30 meters in front of the position. It basically became a restricted area, and no one could rush to that place. As the casualties continued to increase, the morale of the Russian army also dropped rapidly. Although they were not afraid of death and were eager to fight, this was not fighting at all, but massacres. They were the only ones who slaughtered others, but now their roles were reversed. Under the huge contrast, the Russian army finally collapsed.

"The cavalry began to counterattack!" Xiao Jie seized this opportunity and ordered.

Murat's cavalry corps, which had already been prepared, immediately began to pursue the Russian army from both wings of the defense line. The French army wanted to outflank the Russian army, but the Russian army now wanted to retreat and escape from this horrible place. And the horses of the Russian army are obviously much better than those of the French army. No way, Murat's cavalry corps only intercepted a small part of the Russian army hanging behind, and the rest were fled, which made Murat very depressed. And the 3rd and 5th legions, who didn't go to the battlefield at all, were even more ashamed. They all asked Xiao Jie to give them the main task of attacking Vape. In order not to dampen their enthusiasm, Xiao Jie had no choice but to agree. Similarly, after this short battle, the 88th Legion once again proved their strength, including rapid response capability and abnormal firepower, which also allowed other legions to see the gap between them and the 88th Legion, and rushed to catch up.

And the hero of this battle, Andrew, who first discovered the Russian army, became a new hero in the French army. If it weren't for him, the French army would have suffered heavy losses. In recognition of his meritorious service, Xiao Jie issued an order to promote him to second lieutenant and serve as the deputy platoon leader of the 2nd company and 3rd platoon of the guard battalion. If other people are envious, UU reading www. uukanshu.com all said that Andrew was lucky. After Andrew received the promotion order, he also called God to bless him in his heart.

On the other side, the Russian army as the attacker was gloomy. Of the 5,000 elite Cossack cavalry, only 2,000 of them returned in the end, and many of them were injured. Unexpectedly, the reaction speed of the French army would be so fast, and the firepower was so perverted, which made Karbayev cry without tears. Knowing that Karbayev attacked rashly and suffered heavy losses, Ivan was also very angry and almost scolded him.

After seeing the strength of the French army, Karbayev only honestly focused on how to defend Vape, but after seeing the strength of the 88th Army, Karbayev's confidence was greatly reduced. . Let alone how powerful the 88th Legion is, he scoffed at it. Only now did he know how terrifying the 88th Legion was.

After tossing for nearly two hours, the sentries and troops on duty were rearranged, and the French army began to rest again to accumulate physical strength for tomorrow's battle. But just after the fierce battle, many people couldn't sleep, including Xiao Jie.
