Napoleon II Reborn

Under such circumstances, Ferdinand also divided up the few troops in his hands, further reducing his strength. And his hesitation also made him completely encircle his partner, General Mike, into the siege of the French army. In the end, the whole army was destroyed.

On the morning of October 10, a small town about 50 kilometers away from the Danube. There were about 500 Austrian imperial soldiers stationed here before yesterday, but when 8,000 French soldiers appeared in front of them, they all surrendered, obediently raised their hands and walked into the French army without even thinking about escaping. Army prisoner of war camp.

Lieutenant General Munk, the commander of this army. At this time, he was in his humble ministry, looking at the map, and said to his subordinates: "This is the right place, this is right between Ulm and Augsburg, as long as we hold this place , then the main force of the abolition of Dinant will lose the opportunity to escape back to Munich, then the victory of this war must be ours."

"But we only have 8,000 people? The other party has 70,000 troops even if Mike's troops are not counted. Can we hold this place?" A major general said worriedly. This is the question most people want to ask.

Lieutenant General Munk said with a smile: "Dear Mr. Major General, things are not as terrible as you think. According to the latest information, Ferdinand's large army is still in Ulm, and only one army of 10,000 people is going to Georgia. Pingen, there is an army of 20,000 men led by Cracker coming to us, and I think we will meet them soon. But you don't have to worry at all, what we have to face now is also There are only 20,000 people. Don't look, we are the most elite guards in France, the guardians of His Majesty the Emperor. Besides, we are using weapons that are much more advanced than the Austrian army this time. We can completely defeat Kelai There is another news that Marshal Murat has sent 5,000 cavalry to our place. They are already on their way, and they are estimated to arrive this afternoon. In that case, we are completely sure to hold this place. OK Now, gentlemen, I ask you to go back immediately and organize troops to build fortifications, it will not be easy to hold this town."

Hearing Munk's analysis, everyone regained their confidence and went out to organize with confidence. Not only did they build fortifications, but they all wanted to let the Austrians have a taste of the power of our Guards.

About 20 kilometers away from the small town occupied by Munk and the others, a long line of Austrian troops was advancing rapidly. A lieutenant general officer with a firm face was riding his tall white horse, and under the protection of the guards, he slowly followed the team. Suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes in front of him, and his guards immediately got ready to fight, and his lieutenant general protected him in the middle. This lieutenant general was Lieutenant General Clark who had been ordered by Ferdinand to protect the line of communication from Ulm to August.

It took a few minutes for everyone to see that it was two cavalry signal soldiers from the Austrian Army. The two men came to Clark, dismounted their horses, saluted and said, "Your Excellency, we found the enemy's army in a small formation twenty kilometers ahead, about 10,000 people, and they are currently building fortifications."

Clark thought for a while and said, "Give me an order to stop advancing immediately and rest at the same place, and the cooking team will prepare lunch immediately."

"General, we should attack the enemy before they have built their fortifications. Besides, it's only eleven o'clock. Isn't it a little early for lunch?" A major general asked with some regret.

Clark said with a smile: "Yes, it's only eleven o'clock now. The soldiers are tired after walking for so long, it's time to take a rest, so I let them eat enough to continue marching and fighting. Besides Now, how many fortifications can the French army build in an hour or two? Besides, after we had eaten and drank enough, we arrived at lunch time. Think of those poor French soldiers who just did a lot of work. What kind of scene would it be like to face the attack of our brave Austrian soldiers after the physical work in the morning without even having lunch?"

It turned out that Clark had this idea. When the major general heard that Clark's words made sense, he agreed.

At 12:30 noon, the French soldiers who had repaired the fortifications all morning finally got a rest, and they lined up in a long line to receive their lunch. At this time, many officers rushed out from the headquarters, shouting: "Everyone gets a piece of bread, and then enters the position, ready to fight."

The soldiers knew that the enemy had appeared, so after receiving the bread reluctantly, they took up their guns and entered the position, cursing along the way. Many people were suffocated and kept cursing the despicable Austrians, and the women of Clark's family, who were the instigators, were greeted at least twenty times by these angry French soldiers. They chose to start the war at this time, they are too chivalrous. Clark did not expect that his actions aroused the strong anger of the French soldiers, and they all vented their anger on the Austrian soldiers.

Half an hour later, the shadow of the Austrian army appeared, and they lined up in a neat square formation to press down on the French army. The French army also entered the fortifications with guns in hand. The so-called fortifications are nothing more than building a low wall a little over one meter along some houses on the outskirts of the town. It simply can't meet the requirements of protecting the soldiers' vital points, but it's much better than standing in the wild. Who told them to be at a disadvantage now?

Since they marched in a hurry all the way up the mountain, they couldn't bring many cannons. Now there are only six cannons in total, so it is impossible to use cannons to cause huge losses to the opponent like the Battle of Nuremberg. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Fortunately, the opponent's situation was similar to theirs, and they didn't bring a few cannons, but there were a little more people.

The ten cannons of the Austrian army spoke first and bombarded the French positions for 20 minutes, but the French troops withdrew from the positions in time, so they only blew up some weak fortifications, and there were no casualties. Seeing that the shelling had no effect, the Austrian army also stopped, and they didn't have many shells.

Subsequently, the Austrian army launched its first offensive. This time they dispatched a total of 10,000 people, arranged in ten square formations, and launched a fierce attack on the French army's position. After they entered the range of the cannons, the cannons of the French army began to speak, but because the number was too small, they could not cause substantial damage to the Austrian army.

After a while the Austrians came within range of the French rifles. As a result, there were bursts of clear gunshots on the French army's position. Due to the blocking of the low wall, the French army did not shoot in three stages as usual, but lined up in two rows. Make up for the second row. Form consecutive rows of shots.

With the sound of the French guns, the Austrian soldiers fell one by one, and the range of the French rifles completely exceeded their imagination. After paying the price of more than 2,000 people, the entire phalanx collapsed in one fell swoop. The Austrian soldiers desperately turned around and fled to the rear, and it was not until Clark dispatched a supervisor team that all the soldiers were stabilized.
