Napoleon II Reborn
Chapter 80: exercise (below)
At 9:30 a.m. on August 10, Xiao Jie was tasting a glass of mellow 1786 red wine in the command post on the back of No. 1 Heights, while Deputy Corps Chief Dougal and Chief of Staff Eke were studying the map. At this time, a lieutenant staff officer walked in quickly, saluted Xiao Jie and the others, and said: "Report to the regiment commander, deputy regiment commander, and chief of staff. I found a small enemy cavalry infiltrating my first line of defense in the forward position. The frontline commander Colonel Edmund is requesting instructions from the command."
Xiao Jie thought for a while and said: "This must be the scouts sent by the enemy to investigate the reality of our defense line, and ordered the snipers of the various teams on the front line to chase after the enemy after the enemy came into range, and try not to expose our army. Moreover, if there is any situation in the future, let Colonel Edmund directly make up his own mind. Tell him that he is the real commander of the front line now." Another purpose of this exercise is for Xiao Jie to train the army After half a year of learning new tactics, it is time for the mid-level commanders to hand in their grades. The reason he doesn't want himself to exist affects their play.
After the lieutenant took the order, he quickly sent someone to deliver the order.
Each squad of the 88th Army has two snipers, and they are the two best shooters in the squad. Xiao Jie deliberately selected these people. After a month of sniper dispatch, they were equipped with modified 1806 rifles with a range of 800 meters. Inside, these snipers can hit almost every shot.
Slowly, the cavalry scouts of the Guards Corps approached the enemy's position under the leadership of the captain officer according to the order of Marshal Davout. But what surprised them was that they were not blocked at all along the way, and there seemed to be no one on the opposite position. Gradually, getting closer and closer to the opponent's position, the captain let his soldiers disperse and walk carefully towards the enemy's position.
Suddenly, a gunshot was heard on the other side, and one of his soldiers was "hit" with just a "snap". Then more and more gunshots rang out, and more and more of his soldiers were 'killed'. The gunshots from the opponent were very chaotic and mixed, as if they were everywhere. After "losing" more than half of the soldiers, the captain had to order a retreat. (In order to better describe the realistic effect of the exercise, Xiaoyu will use some words that only appear on the real battlefield when writing. You only need to know the so-called "killing", "loss", and "blow-up" The soldiers described by such words are not dead at all)
After losing more than 20 elite cavalry scouts, Marshal Davout, who was still unable to detect the truth of the opponent, was a little angry. He ordered: "Order the artillery to prepare, cover the enemy's line of defense for half an hour, and the infantry is ready to attack."
Bessières did not have the slightest objection to Davout's order, and it seemed that there was no other way under such circumstances. If he did not take action on the first day, it would be hard to explain to His Majesty the Emperor.
Ten minutes later, Davout's artillery began to roar, smashing shells angrily at the enemy's position. The soldiers of the 88th Army immediately lay down in trenches or foxholes after hearing the whistling sound from the air. The trenches of the 88th Army were dug in accordance with the requirements of the drill code, with a standard size of 120 cm to 150 cm. Under the fierce attack of the enemy's artillery, the "casualties" of the 88th Corps were not large. As long as the artillery shells did not "fall" directly into the trenches, the soldiers lying at the bottom of the trenches would have nothing but pain in their ears from the shock. No damage. At this time, the 1st and 2nd artillery positions of the 88th Army also began to suppress the enemy artillery under Xiao Jie's order. With the advantage of 75mm range and power, they achieved very good results. Before the shelling ended, at least fifty enemy cannons were 'destroyed', accounting for one-sixth of the total number of enemy cannons.
The half-hour shelling ended quickly, and Davout was quite satisfied with the effect of the shelling, but because he didn't know the power and range of the enemy's cannons, he 'lost' one-sixth of the cannons. He was very heartbroken, and secretly scolded Xiao Jie for being mean, and quickly ordered the artillery to move their positions, and ordered the infantry to start attacking. Although this attack was a tentative attack, Davout still invested two regiments with a total of more than 5,000 people. Due to a lot of experience gained in the last war, the French army's offensive is no longer in a neat square formation as before September 9, but the soldiers are dispersed, lined up in skirmish lines, and attack with their waists bent.
After the bombardment, the commanders of the 2nd Battalion of the 88th Army also discovered that the enemy infantry had begun to attack. Amidst bursts of piercing whistles, the soldiers who had been lying in the trenches quickly got up and got ready for battle. In order to pass the orders of the officers to the ears of each soldier more conveniently, Xiao Jie specially equipped each low-level officer with a whistle, and used the length of the whistle to command the soldiers to hide or attack and so on.
Twenty minutes later, the enemy came within mortar firing range of 2nd Battalion. As a result, on the way forward of the Guards Corps, shells continued to fall, 'killing' many people. But fortunately, there were so many of them, the people who were 'killed' were nothing compared to the total of 5,000 people.
After paying a certain price, their progress was blocked. What stopped them was the barbed wire fence in front of them. They had to stop and think of a way to tear apart the barbed wire, but the barbed wire was very tough, and without professional tools, they had to smash it with rifle butts and other things~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but the effect was not very good. But when they were trying to break through the barbed wire, the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion opened fire under the orders of the officers. The clear sound of rifle shooting mixed with the deep roar of the heavy machine gun, fiercely fired one after another 'bullets' at the opponent. Under their fierce blows, the soldiers of the Guards Corps 'fell down' piece by piece.
With great difficulty, the soldiers of the Guards Corps found the barbed wire fences damaged by shelling, and they passed through these places and launched a fierce attack on the enemy's positions. But those openings are too few and too narrow. After discovering this situation, the heavy machine guns of the 2nd Battalion almost all aimed at these openings to shoot. The attack of the Guards was completely contained. The two barbed wire fences that were not very high and not very strong became an insurmountable moat for them at this moment.
In less than an hour, under the fierce firepower of the 88th Army, the Guards Corps suffered nearly 3,000 "casualties". It may not be a lot, but compared to the 88th Army, this accounted for half of others, so Davout felt very embarrassed. After seeing that the attack was hopeless, Davout had to order to withdraw his troops. The whole army was preparing to have lunch and prepare to launch a fierce attack in the afternoon.
The attack of the 'enemy' was 'repulsed', and the 88th Army's position was full of joy. But no one thought that they were sure of winning. They all knew that this was just the opponent's first tentative attack, and more violent attacks were yet to come.
