Chapter 214 In the Name of Revolution
Soon, the soldiers who launched the exploratory attack withdrew.
They reported to the general.
"Report to the General, it has been confirmed that there are enemy defense lines in the north, west and east directions!
Only on the way we came, there was no trace of the enemy!"
When the general heard this, his face instantly became solemn.
This tactic is obviously to surround three sides and leave one side open.
But in order to confirm whether this was the tactic, the general carefully questioned the soldiers.
"What is the enemy's firepower in three directions?"
The soldiers who were pushed back by the machine gun positions answered without hesitation.
"The firepower was very sufficient. They wiped out hundreds of us in an instant. Moreover, their weapons could fire very far, and judging from the sound of the gunshots, they seemed to be muskets!"
This was almost the same answer from several soldiers.
The general's expression became even more serious after hearing this answer.
The general's name was Bidwen, and he was a typical new-style aristocratic general.
He was very eager for new things and was disgusted with Niradi's rule.
Niradi also knew that this young general had the support of many old nobles.
So I never found an opportunity to start.
But now is your chance...
After learning that Bonaparte had appeared, Neradi immediately sent Bidwen to eliminate Bonaparte.
Although Bidwen is only in his 30s, he is very cautious.
He has the caution of a veteran in his forties or fifties.
After hearing the soldiers' answers, Bidven became more convinced that the only way out was most likely a dead end.
Because the three lines of defense with powerful firepower must be covering up something.
The truth was not what Bidwin thought.
The three lines of defense actually consist of only three teams of 1,000 men.
But they were stunned by the Zhongzheng rifle and ZB26 light machine gun.
The revolutionary soldiers responsible for defending these lines were even more confused.
The enemy only launched a tentative attack, then fled in panic, leaving behind hundreds of dead soldiers...
The revolutionary soldier said: I haven't started to get serious yet...
However, this judgment will greatly increase the difficulty of Bonaparte's charge.
But Bonaparte would not be afraid.
He must fight to prove himself, because only by winning a glorious victory can he spread the flames of revolution on the land of the Western French Empire!
Bidwen took advantage of the chaos to gather tens of thousands of soldiers.
Looking at the noble soldiers whose equipment was barely intact, Bidwen was filled with rage, but now was not the time to punish these soldiers.
The most urgent thing now is how to escape.
Some soldiers who did not wear winter clothing soon regretted it…
In the ice and snow, the temperature at night reached more than ten degrees below zero.
They were soon shivering in their coats. They couldn't even hear their superiors' orders and could only huddle together instinctively and move slowly forward.
When Bidwen saw this scene, he realized that it would be difficult for him to escape.
In other words, there is no way to escape with such a large army...
Although there were nearly 6000 troops, the number of soldiers who could actually fight did not exceed .
Moreover, many soldiers were awakened shortly after falling asleep, and their combat effectiveness was seriously reduced.
Moreover, there were only a few hundred cavalrymen and horses left in the army, and the rest of the horses were scattered in the artillery fire.
These hundreds of cavalrymen were conducting reconnaissance for the army.
Soon, they arrived at the border of the Borean Territory.
What they didn't expect was that they were driven out less than 24 hours after entering the North Wind Territory.
And it took eight hours to get in, but only four hours to escape...
When Bidwen saw this scene, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
But he also sighed, finally escaped...
It seemed that there were no enemy troops blocking him on the road, but the next second a scene that made him collapse appeared.
There was a dense sound of horse hooves coming from afar!
After hearing the sound of horse hooves, Bidwen finally understood Bonaparte's plan.
Now the entire army is on the verge of collapse, or even at the end of its strength.
After a night of forced march, these tens of thousands of soldiers were extremely exhausted.
And now Bonaparte appeared with the cavalry, which was tantamount to a massacre for them.
Many soldiers of the Western French Empire were already standing there in a daze. Most of them were noble soldiers responsible for guarding Lugodes.
Where have you experienced the baptism of war?
The intensive shelling and four hours of forced march had brought them to the brink of collapse.
The sound of horse hooves became their final death warrant...
2000 dragoons wearing bicorne hats launched a charge.
They saw Bonaparte rushing in the front, because Bonaparte was wearing the orthodox crown prince robe of the Hellenic Dynasty of the French Empire.
After seeing Bonaparte, everyone finally remembered the horror of the Shiri dynasty.
The Shiri Dynasty is the orthodox successor of the Yager Dynasty.
It continued the Youngor Dynasty's tradition of revenge.
Especially seeing the dragoons behind Bonaparte.
Although the equipment has changed, the dragoons are still dragoons.
This type of army that has swept across the Eastern Continent for 500 years appears again!
The soldiers finally collapsed. They no longer thought about how to take up arms to resist, but how to escape.
Bidwen led the guards to form a battle line immediately, arranged into three teams, and fired volleys of gunfire.
When the dragoons saw this scene, they immediately stopped a hundred meters away.
Then he took off the Zhongzheng rifle from his back and started shooting.
Bidwen was very confused as to why these dragoons started shooting from 100 meters away.
But the next second, a large number of soldiers were hit, and everyone realized that the weapons in the hands of the dragoons could hit them outside their range!
Bidwin immediately ordered the soldiers to disperse and find cover.
But where is the shelter in this icy and snowy place?
Even if you lie prone on the ground, you will die.
Because dragoons ride on horses!
Relative to them, he is half a body taller than them...
How is this played?
Bidwen was no longer able to fight on...
But he had to buy some time for the army to escape...
After all, if they were completely wiped out in the first battle, then Bidwen would be nailed to the pillar of shame...
So for the sake of his last bit of dignity, he had to fight with Bonaparte.
Bidwen and the guards lay on the snow, enduring the shooting of the dragoons.
Although the accuracy of these dragoons on horseback is not high, they do not have to worry about accuracy at all because of their extremely long range.
Can’t hit?
It’s okay, just fire a few more shots!
After the dragoons had been shooting for nearly 15 minutes and had used up all their rifle bullets, the SS finally couldn't hold on any longer.
At this time, the 3000 guards and 3000 soldiers had suffered heavy casualties and were unable to launch a counterattack.
Bonaparte immediately drew his command sword.
"In the name of the revolution! Dragoons! Charge!"
After saying that, he rushed out first.
All the dragoons took off the bolts of their regular rifles and put them on their bodies, then threw the rifles on the snow.
Then he drew his saber and charged after Bonaparte.
