"For freedom! Rush!! The red, white and blue tricolor fluttered high on the plains on the outskirts of Rennes, and groups of improvised and tangled revolutionary armed reinforcements launched a pig assault charge for an unknown number of times, many of whom did not even have muskets, and armed with axes, dung forks and even kitchen knives and other weapons, and slaughtered the small number of young guards in the main position.

These tens of thousands of men were the citizen volunteers that Robespierre's government had managed to reorganize from the rear cities, and at this time Lin Haoda's Young Guards had reached their limit, and the population of Brittany had also died to the limit.

Almost all the cities that were not occupied by Lin Haoda, the remaining population was used to the limit, and not everyone was pulled to the front line in the war, otherwise, who would produce guns and ammunition, who would produce bread and living materials, and who would grow food to feed the army and civilians?

Of course, Robespierre also knew that Lin Haoda's Young Guards had reached the limit, and as long as this offensive momentum was crushed, Lin Haoda would lose the follow-up strength to continue the offensive, and the First French Republic would be saved!

However, even if Robespierre's government does not support the offensive and defensive battle of Rennes, Lin Haoda will not be able to continue the offensive before the arrival of the new reward army, not only the problem of the death of soldiers, but also the high-intensity war of more than a month has exhausted Lin Haoda's ammunition reserves......

In fact, in Lin Haoda's battle plan, Rennes City is a temporary truce point, but I don't think that Robespierre's government will use its life to pile up a victory, Rennes City's usefulness to Robespierre's government may be very ordinary, but now is Lin Haoda's weakest time, Robespierre urgently needs a great victory to revive the French Revolution's fighting faith.

The revolutionary armed forces in the charge did not even have a uniform uniform, and the only thing that distinguished them was the red, white and blue revolutionary cockade with the inlaid on the hat, after all, the cost of the cockade was much lower than the entire uniform......

In front of the dense crowd of chargers, a series of roars erupted from the positions of the Young Guards, and large areas of heavy shotguns were scattered all over the place, scattering the charging procession of the revolutionary armed crowd.

Immediately, groups of weary cuirassiers, sabers alof, under the orders of the officers, launched another decisive charge against the chaotic revolutionary armed crowd bombarded by a large number of artillery heavy shotguns.

Although the number of cuirassiers was not much left, they still fiercely cut into the mud legs of the revolutionary armed forces several times their size, and slashed and slashed until their arms were disarmed or they were pulled off their horses and tortured to death!

Amid the reckless charge of the cuirassiers and the roar of a large number of artillery, the mighty revolutionary reinforcements were once again defeated and retreated, leaving behind a wailing wounded.

A small number of the remaining Young Guards stepped onto the battlefield to mend the wounded who could not retreat.

Such a mode of battle has been carried out a full eight times, as the main force of the cuirassiers suffered heavy casualties, and the heavy shotguns of the artillery are even more reserved, obviously, the reinforcements of the leading revolutionary army have calculated the ammunition reserves of the Young Guards, and now the revolutionary reinforcements still have people who can organize an attack again, and the hundreds of artillery pieces of the Young Guards are almost dumb......

"Your Royal Highness the Regent, our shotguns have been exhausted in this attack, there are not many solid bullets, the cuirassiers have lost more than half of the battle, and we can only use the Young Guards to resist the next wave of attacks......"

Casio reported to Lin Haoda with an embarrassed face that although they had killed far more enemies than their own, the reinforcements that Robespierre's government had struggled with this time were too many compared to the exhausted Young Guards who fought against the resistance in Rennes......

The battle in Rennes consumed a lot of ammunition, and when the revolutionary reinforcements arrived, it was only a few rounds of charges, and Lin Haoda's artillery became an ornament.

"Build a defensive position, we can't retreat, otherwise, these artillery will be cheaper Robespierre, if there are no shells, we will shoot with guns, and if there are no bullets, we will have bayonets, I want to see how many people these revolutionary thugs can hold out and die!"

Lin Haoda coldly gave a death order.

These hundreds of 12-pounder infantry field guns were exchanged for by him at a great cost, and they must not be allowed to be lost here!

Under Lin Haoda's strict orders, the Young Guards all withdrew from the ruined city of Rennes, and made desperate preparations to defend their camp positions.

Under these circumstances, the remnants of the city of Rennes succeeded in merging with the revolutionary reinforcements that had suffered heavy battle losses, and the revolutionary army, which had been greatly demoralized, launched a series of pig assaults for several days after Lin Haoda's artillery ammunition was exhausted.

For the first time, the revolutionary army under the command of Robespierre's ruling government fought a tragic positional battle with the Young Guards in a field battle, but unfortunately, the young guards in a state of die-hard loyalty did not give up a single step and firmly held their positions, and did not defeat or flee on a large scale, and the revolutionary army commander could not understand how the soldiers under Lin Haoda maintained such strong morale in the face of adversity.

After a week of bloody fighting, the commander of the revolutionary army had to admit the fact that they could not have won the victory without killing all the Young Guards, and the cuirassiers and hussars also maintained high morale under the leadership of the Young Guards, who had much higher lethality in field battles than the Young Guards, and of course, the casualties were much worse......

By the time the revolutionary army had to cease war with Lin Haoda due to a large number of casualties, a whole thousand hussars had been beaten into scattered heralds, and the formation of the hussar regiment had disappeared......

More than two-thirds of the more than 4,000 cuirassiers were killed, leaving only more than 1,000 to survive.

As for the battle damage of the Young Guards, it was even more shocking, and only more than 5,000 people remained to continue fighting.

However, the sacrifices made by Lin Haoda are all meaningful, and this battle in which the revolutionary army holds the belief that it will win can only end in defeat.

Lin Haoda gave up the occupation of Rennes, and the revolutionary army silently suffered the cost of more than 200,000 casualties, which was just the casualties of a battle in Rennes!

With no further fighting on both sides, Lin Haoda withdrew with all the artillery units and the remnants of the Young Guard, and Robespierre's government lost its last war potential!

What Robespierre didn't know was what kind of army reward Lin Haoda would receive after he withdrew.
