Napoleon II Reborn

The transportation brigade serves as the general reserve team and acts as a firefighter, blocking wherever there is a crisis. Although this brigade was organized as a transportation brigade and was mainly responsible for the supplies and ammunition supply of the entire army, their daily training was no different from that of an ordinary infantry brigade, only slightly less intense. Since the 88th Army generally used weapons that consumed relatively large ammunition, it had to form a separate force to be responsible for the transportation of supplies. But don't think of them as mere transportation personnel. They are no worse than regular infantry with guns, and their equipment is no different from other infantry brigades. It's just that they usually put their weapons Just in the carriage. In this exercise, they have already transported all the supplies needed by the legion within these three days, so Xiao Jie dared to organize them all to serve as the reserve team of the whole legion.

The cavalry brigade was the only counterattack force in Xiao Jie's hands. Always defending is not the answer, besides, the best defense is offense. Although it is basically unrealistic for the 88th Legion with only 6,000 troops to take the initiative to attack the coalition forces consisting of the Imperial Guard and the Guards Corps with 45,000 troops, it is still possible to seize the opportunity to launch a small counterattack. Can do it. It is not Xiao Jie's style to only defend but not attack.

On the afternoon of August 9, Napoleon and the other party participating in the maneuver, the Imperial Guard and the Guards Corps, arrived in Chartres. Xiao Jie took the main generals of the 88th Army to the city of Chartres to greet them. After two days of intensive construction, the positions of the 88th Army Corps have basically been built according to the training mode.

After a rest, Napoleon proposed to visit the positions of the 88th Army. Xiao Jie showed embarrassment. Napoleon said: "What's the matter, little Andresi? Are you still afraid that your position will be leaked?"

Of course Xiao Jie thought so in his heart, but he couldn't say it out of his mouth, and quickly replied: "Of course not. It's just that our position has just been built, and there are many other things that haven't been cleaned up, making it a mess Yes, that's why I feel a little inconvenient."

Of course Napoleon knew that Xiao Jie's words were evasive words, he waved his hands and said, "What's the matter? Didn't any of the marshals and generals present here come out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood? What?" Napoleon's marshals and generals all echoed his words. Napoleon continued: "However, in order to show the fairness of this exercise, all members of the Imperial Guard and Guards Corps are not allowed to step into the position of the 88th Army before the exercise begins. Violators will be punished by military law. Including Marshal Davout and General Besières."

Davout and Bessières silently watched the crowd going away. "Your Excellency Marshal, do you think our attack will go smoothly tomorrow?" Besière asked.

"Your Excellency, you must know that you are the commander of the most elite imperial guards in the empire. In the empire and even in the whole world, there is no army that can rival your army. Even the army of His Royal Highness, who has all the gold coins piled up. No, let alone add my guards." Davout said confidently. He has never had a good impression of Xiao Jie's troops that cost a lot of money to equip. For an army of only 6,000 people, the money Xiao Jie spent on it was more than enough to arm a regiment of guards. Although he had also heard that the weapons of the 88th Legion were very powerful, he had never seen them with his own eyes, so he instinctively believed that the combat effectiveness of the troops that could only rely on advanced weapons would not be too high. In order to ensure that these advanced weapons are in his own hands, Xiao Jie directly transferred some people from the 88th Army to garrison the Andresi Arsenal and Research Institute to prevent spies from other countries from stealing weapon materials.

Bessières took a look at Davout and stopped talking. He was not as optimistic as Davout.

No one dares to violate the authority of His Majesty the Emperor. So Napoleon took the generals and marshals except the Imperial Guard and Guards Corps, accompanied by Xiao Jie, to the position of the 88th Army.

On the way, Xiao Jie introduced to Napoleon: "Our position is mainly composed of trenches, barbed wire and fixed firepower points. Relying on the two hills, we call the one on the left Height No. 1, and the one on the right The second highland is divided into two parts, namely the first line of defense and the second line of defense."

When Napoleon and his party stood on Height 1 overlooking the position of the 88th Army, they all sweated for the Imperial Guard and the Guards. This is probably the strongest and most innovative position they have ever seen. They never thought that the position could be so slender. Napoleon was also very surprised. He keenly grasped the impact that this position would have on military tactics, and secretly decided to implement the new drill code of the 88th Army in the entire army after the exercise. After seeing the positions of the 88th Army, he had already decided in his heart that victory would belong to them. It's just that his idea of ​​implementing a new style of drill had to be interrupted, because the war was coming soon.

After visiting the positions of the 88th Army, the marshals and generals looked at Davout and Bessières with self-important eyes. The two who watched were terrified.

In the evening, Napoleon organized a dinner for all the senior generals. Before the dinner, some innocuous words were said to encourage the two troops participating in the exercise.

The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Napoleon announced the start of the exercise, and all the troops participating in the exercise marched into their respective positions. Since the Imperial Guard and the Guards Corps are the attacking side, they did not build a large-scale position. They just used yesterday afternoon to build a simple starting position.

The positions of the Imperial Guard and the Guards are not far from the city of Chartres, and the position of the 88th Army is about five kilometers away. Napoleon and his party held binoculars on the city wall of Chartres to watch the progress of the exercise.

In the starting position of the Imperial Guard and the Guards, Davout and Bessières hold up a telescope to observe the position of the 88th Army. But in their binoculars, not even a single person could be seen, thanks to the new uniforms of the 88th Regiment. This kind of military uniform is colorful and does not conform to the French aesthetics at all, and is called a beggar's uniform by the soldiers. At the beginning, many soldiers of the 88th Army Corps refused to wear this uniform, but in the end they compromised under Xiao Jie's coercion. People from other legions also laughed at them because of this incident. But this kind of military uniform is too easy to integrate with the environment. After looking at the position of the 88th Army for a long time, Davout and Bessières didn't see any tricks.

"Your Excellency Marshal, what should we do now?" Besière asked. Because Davu's military rank is one level higher than his, it is only natural that Dawu is also the commander of their side.

Davout is also having a very headache now. So he ordered: "The scouting cavalry set out, get closer to find out where the weakness of the enemy's position is?"

Under his order, a captain officer led more than fifty scouts with excellent riding skills to scatter and gallop towards the position of the 88th Army ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The hottest serial works are all at ~www.wuxiaspot.com~
