The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1569 The Battle of Naples (Part 1)
What kind of tactic is this? In fact, this is an article in Marin's self-learning. At the beginning, Cao's army was powerful. Zhuge Liang saw Cao Cao's army coming to attack after "burning Bowangpo", knowing that he was incapable of fighting, so he voluntarily withdrew from Xinye City and gave Xinye City to Cao Jun.
That night, Cao Jun rested in the city. But Zhuge Liang had already left a shadow in the city, and he had prepared enough materials for setting fire. Then, while Cao Jun was sleeping soundly, Zhuge Liang's shadows set fires everywhere in Xinye City, causing Cao Jun to be in chaos. Seeing that the city was full of fire, Cao Jun fled from the east gate, and was chased and killed by Zhao Yun's army for a while, causing huge losses. And Cao Jun fled to the Baihe River, and Guan Yu opened the gate to release the water, drowning a large number of soldiers and horses...
Of course, this is not true. Moreover, the strategy of "burning the new field" in the city of Naples will not work. why? This is caused by the difference in building materials between the East and the West. In the city of Naples, there are mainly masonry houses, which are not easy to ignite. In ancient China, Xinye City was dominated by wooden houses, which were convenient for setting fire.
Moreover, because they wanted to avoid being hurt by the Spanish muskets, the French army chose to leave the city on rainy days. Even though there are many wooden houses in Naples, it is not easy to set fire to them. Therefore, it is impossible to copy "burning Xinye" indiscriminately.
After thinking about it, Marin had to adopt a weakened version of "Burning Xinye". That is to say, there is no "fire", but a back door is left, so that the French army can return to the carbine.
The Spaniards have never seen any tricks. After entering the fortified city of Naples, they certainly did not expect the French army to kill their carbine. This is the opportunity for the French army...
...
Sure enough, when the French army arrived outside the city, there was no movement from the Spaniards on the city. At this time, the French war horses stopped 5 kilometers away, and they all sealed their mouths with cloth strips, and wrapped the horseshoes with thick cloth to avoid too much noise. Then, all the French soldiers got off their horses and walked on foot, leaving only some of them in the distance to protect Louis XII and his party.
The rest of the troops, including the French knights, all put on two-handed swords, dismounted and walked...
On a rainy night, it was pitch black with no light at all. But the French were familiar with the terrain, and they moved forward carefully hand in hand, and came to a place not far from the city wall.
Then, hundreds of knights stepped forward first, came to an old tree, and opened the tree hole, revealing the dark hole...
"Go down quickly and enter the city!" the French commander ordered.
But the leading French knight said a little depressed:
"There is no light in the tunnel, and nothing can be seen!"
The commander handed him a canvas bag and said:
"This is a candle, as well as a fire pocket and gunpowder. After entering, light the candle and stick it on the wall. Remember, no light is allowed at the entrance. Otherwise, the military law will proceed!"
The leading knight nodded, first drilled into the tunnel, then lit candles inside, and stuck them on the walls on both sides. In this way, there is no need to discredit the tunnel.
Then, 100 powerful French knights entered the bright tunnel one after another and moved forward quietly...
When they reached the exit of the cemetery behind the chapel on the north wall of the city, the leading French knight carefully and slowly moved away the hollow tombstone, climbed up, and then turned around and returned to the tunnel.
"How is it? Are there guards around here?"
"The door of the church is closed. There is a wheelbarrow at the door. There are probably some Spaniards living in it. But it doesn't matter. We can go around from the back without disturbing them. As for the door, I dare not approach it. There may be a few Spaniards living in it. Someone should be stationed, it doesn’t matter, we’ll go in after a while. Anyway, the Spaniards at the north gate didn’t block the city gate with debris!” reported the leading French Knights.
The commander nodded, and ordered in a low voice to the French knights who came up:
"Not much else to say, warriors of France, get ready to fight!"
Everyone nodded silently, pulled down the visors of the plate helmets one after another, and then, under the leadership of the commander, quietly climbed out of the hollow tombstone. Then they left the cemetery, pressed against the wall,
Quietly approach the north gate two hundred meters away...
...
At this time, it was around 4 o'clock in the morning, and it was almost dawn. But this time period is also the most sleepy time for people. At this time, the Spanish soldiers were basically asleep, and the night patrol team in the middle of the night would also go to rest.
The 100 French knights went all the way to the inner side of the north city gate, but they were not found. Then, the commander ordered several torches to be lit with a torch, illuminating the city gate...
"Who is it?" At this time, a sleepy Spanish goalkeeper in the city gate yawned and asked casually in Spanish when he saw the fire.
However, he had no chance of knowing the answer. Seeing that the defenders were alarmed, the French commander immediately ordered a storm. Before the Spanish guard who was asking questions in a daze could stand up, he was chopped into several pieces by the French knight who rushed forward with his two-handed sword...
Subsequently, more than 30 Spanish troops in the city gate were wiped out in a short period of time. After all, they were facing French knights with high martial arts skills. Moreover, it's still a French knight in plate armor, so fucking bullying...
But the fighting in the city gate still alarmed the Spaniards in the city. The Spanish defenders in a courtyard near the city gate were awakened immediately when they heard the miserable howls coming from the city gate. Then, its commander blew the horn, alarming the city.
Hearing the sound of the horn, the vanguard commander of the French army became anxious. After ordering several French knights to open the city gate, he led the others to gather at the inner exit of the city gate to prevent the Spaniards from counterattacking.
After the French knights behind opened the city gate, they shouted in French:
"Come on, brothers!"
Then, a large number of French troops rushed to the gate outside the city gate...
After repelling the first batch of Spanish soldiers who counterattacked, the main force of the French army was already approaching the gate. Seeing that the army was coming up, the vanguard commander of the French army immediately ordered:
"Warriors, follow me!" Then, he took the lead, waving his sword, and rushed forward, followed by 100 French knights, making way for the French soldiers behind...
Subsequently, a large number of French soldiers poured into the city, rushed forward along the street, led by the walking French knights.
At this time, various trumpets sounded throughout the entire city of Naples, and the Spanish soldiers hurriedly got up...
Groups of Spanish soldiers, armed with weapons, rushed to the street driven by the officers, and lined up to defend against the French charge.
But the French knights who rushed to the front were too fierce, and ordinary Spanish infantry had no resistance in front of them. After all, these open French knights are wearing invulnerable plate armor, and the two-handed swords they wield in their hands are extremely lethal...
As a result, the Spanish army retreated steadily on the street, retreating to the direction of the Governor's Palace in Naples in the center of the city. There lived five supreme commanders of the Spanish army...
