Napoleon II Reborn

After taking down the Eagle Day Fortress, the French army has no worries for the time being, and can attack Munich boldly with confidence. At this time, Munich is like a beautiful woman who has been stripped naked, as if she can let the French army do whatever they want without much effort. But everyone knows that if they want to pick this fruit of victory, they don't know how many fresh lives they have to give.

On the afternoon of October 16, after full preparations, the French Guards Corps, the First and Second Corps launched a fierce attack on Munich in three directions. First, there was half an hour of artillery preparation, and then the infantry began to attack. Due to the previous experience, Fazai did not strictly require the soldiers to form a neat team to attack. Since this tactic is still immature, many problems of one kind or another have been exposed. For example, the organizational system of the soldiers is often disrupted, resulting in improper command, very chaotic when attacking, and unable to exert their maximum combat power. But the advantage of this is that it can effectively reduce casualties during the attack.

In order to solve this problem, each unit is usually assigned specific combat tasks before attacking. Although there are some disadvantages in this way, overall, the effect is much better.

Munich is a famous European city with a long history, the largest city in southern Germany and the capital of the Kingdom of Bavaria. But since the beginning of the war, this bustling city has become very desolate, and most people have fled to the countryside to escape the war, and those who stay are basically people who have nowhere to go. Most of the people in the city now are the Austrian army. They have built Munich like a war fortress. The neighborhoods have been blocked and there are newly built barricades everywhere. Ferdinand has already made up his mind to fight the French army to the death here. He is determined to completely turn Munich into the grave of the French army. Even if this historic city is turned into ruins, it will not hesitate. Anyway, it's not his Austrian city, and if it's broken, it will be broken, and he won't feel bad about it. This is the suffering of the weak and small countries caught in the middle of two big countries fighting.

The first attack of the French army was repulsed under the strong resistance of the Austrian army. They left almost two thousand corpses under the city of Munich. However, under their fierce attack, the Austrian army also paid almost the same casualties. From this point of view, the French army still firmly holds the advantage. After all, they participated in the attack more than twice as many as the Austrians.

In fact, the main problem facing the French army is that it cannot pass through the moat under the city of Munich. The moat is about ten meters wide and three or four meters deep, and it is connected to the river that flows through Munich, so it can be considered to be abundant in water. Every time the French army without special tools reached the edge of the moat, they couldn't do anything. They just stood there and shot at the French army on the city wall. The result can be imagined.

Later, the French army adopted a relatively stupid method. Every time they attacked, they brought a large number of bags filled with mud or sand, trying to fill up the moat, but because the moat was too wide and too deep , coupled with the constant interference of the Austrian army. So spending an afternoon didn't make much progress, but caused a lot of casualties.

At ten o'clock in the evening, a team of cavalry signalers arrived at the French garrison. They were sent by Prince Murat to report the movement of the Austrian reinforcements. I learned from them that more than 80,000 reinforcements from the Austrian army have already arrived at Poggin, a small town on the border between Bavaria and Austria, which is only 180 kilometers away from Munich. And its vanguard has already exchanged fire with Murat's cavalry corps, but the opponent just left at a touch, and has no intention of fighting Murat at all. It seems that they are in a hurry to rescue Munich.

Unexpectedly, the reinforcements from the Austrian army would come so quickly, which caught Napoleon by surprise. Fortunately, the Third Army and the Fifth and Sixth Army no longer have combat missions. With these three armies plus the cavalry army, they can completely deal with them. But in order to end the war in Munich as soon as possible, Napoleon had a bolder idea. The reason why Ferdinand was determined to fight the French army to the death in Munich was because he had nowhere to go. If there was a glimmer of life, he would definitely not stick here, and Munich is an extremely difficult bone, even if he gnawed down The French army will definitely lose two teeth because of this, why bother? If that is the case, then the French army will no longer have enough strength to deal with the offensives of Russia and Prussia. So he was going to take this opportunity to eliminate the Austrian reinforcements and 'release' Ferdinand out of Munich. It would be great if he could be eliminated. It would be no big deal if he escaped, and he would not pose any threat to France without the army.

As a result, Napoleon issued the latest order: the third, fifth, and sixth armies will replace the original guards, the first, and second armies' defense areas. They only need to keep the pressure on Munich, and they are not forced to attack Munich. The three corps that were replaced began to advance eastward on the 17th, preparing to eat up the 80,000 reinforcements of the Austrian army.

On the morning of the 19th, the First French Army Corps and the unsuspecting Austrian Army encountered by a river 70 kilometers away from Munich. The two armies immediately launched the most intense fight. Although the First Legion was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers~www.wuxiaspot.com~, with their excellent combat skills and advanced weapons, they firmly suppressed the more than 80,000 Austrian troops there, unable to move forward any further. At this time, the Guards Army and the Second Army, which were advancing side by side with the First Army, surrounded it from the left and right wings respectively. Murat's cavalry corps completely blocked the opponent's retreat.

It was General Zeriger, the commander of the Austrian army, who knew that he had fallen into the trap of the French army. He didn't know how to fight, but he won the trust of the Austrian Emperor by virtue of his flattery. And this time there were 50,000 reinforcements to defend Vienna, so of course the Austrian Emperor would not allow others to get involved in his army, so he sent his most trusted Qi Ruige to command. The result was such a tragedy.

After organizing several breakouts to no avail, Zirig chose to surrender simply, on the condition that the French army must guarantee his safety, and find a way to get his family out of Vienna after the war, allowing them to live in France etc. Napoleon graciously agreed to his terms. So nearly 80,000 Austrian troops walked into the French prisoner-of-war camp without any resistance.

Ferdinand, who was in Munich, immediately gave up his plan to defend Munich after discovering that the elite of the French army had been taken away. He immediately made a decision to break out of the encirclement. He ordered the 60,000 people who were originally stationed in Munich to attack eastward. encircled. Fleeing to Prague, preparing to unite with the upcoming Russian army, planning a big plan.

So far, the Munich War ended with the Austrian army losing nearly 150,000 people, while the French army only lost more than 20,000 people.
