Chapter 15: The Capture of the Bastille

Four Swiss mercenaries carried flintlock pistols on their shoulders, and two people in front and two escorted Lin Haoda to the residence of the Marquis de Lonay, the administrator of the Bastille and the 'commander' of the fortress castle. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After entering the Bastille, Lin Haoda really clearly realized how professional the defense facilities here are!

The walls of the Bastille are even thicker than they look from the outside, with 8 towers in the corners, just enough to seal off all the blind spots of the wall's attack vision, and no matter where you attack the wall, there will always be one or two towers that can cover it!

Naturally, all eight towers were equipped with fortified artillery, and even though these guns were old-fashioned, the stationary large-caliber guns could still inflict heavy losses on the attackers!

Lin Haoda, who was rich in military knowledge, quickly judged that this Bastille must have been a fortress built on the scale of a military fortress, and according to his familiarity with the buildings of Paris, it could be seen that the Bastille occupied the absolute commanding heights of the entire Paris city!

In this era, there are no so-called 'high-rise buildings', and the walls and towers of more than 30 meters high are enough to stand out in the city of Paris!

"True to the spiritual symbol of the French autocracy, the Bastille could indeed be used as a strategic core fortress in military terms!

It's just that there are so few guards here! “

Lin Haoda secretly said in his heart, when he came from the city gate, except for the soldiers who saw the patrol at the city gate and towers, all the other places were empty!

The Bastille prison of Nuoda seemed so deserted that he didn't even see a single prisoner......

Since this is the case, Lin Haoda will naturally not be polite!

His eyes rolled slightly, and he quickly spent 1,000 historical smash points in his mind, buying 10 teams of ordinary line infantry, a total of 1,600 people!

After seeing the 10 line infantry cards side by side at the bottom of the retina, Lin Haoda was about to arrive at the Marquis of Lorne's residence, when he suddenly covered his stomach and squatted on the ground in pain, using a very old-fashioned but very practical despicable trick - I want to...... Oh no, I should say I have a stomachache and want to go for convenience!

The Swiss mercenary, who was not suspicious of Lin Haoda, happily pointed out to him the convenient place, anyway, he was not in a hurry to see the Marquis of Lonay, not to mention, Lin Haoda was alone, and he could turn the sky in the Bastille?

It was this unsuspecting mentality that made the Swiss mercenaries make a decision that they would regret for the rest of their lives, allowing Lin Haoda to come to the no-man's land alone!

The Total War system is powerful, but it has a very strange setting, it can't show 'miracles' in front of the eyes of the natives of this world, as long as someone can see the scene of Lin Haoda summoning troops and character retinues, the cards provided by the Total War system cannot be converted into real humans!

On the other hand, as long as it is not seen by the humans of this world, no matter how weird the 'extra incident' is for others, it will not affect Lin Haoda's summoning process!

Of course, the sudden appearance of an army will definitely arouse people's suspicion and attention, which needs to be dealt with by Lin Haoda himself, if he doesn't want others to be monsters, he will either turn into a god stick and run the train with a mouth cannon to fool those people over, or simply and quickly cut down the insiders to eradicate the roots!

Dead people naturally don't chew the root of their tongue!

Lin Haoda, whose style is inclined to be simple and rude, will choose?

Heheda~

The Swiss mercenary who thinks that Lin Haoda will not have any problems alone, naturally he will not go to the toilet with him to enjoy the smelly 'edification', Lin Haoda easily found a vacant place with no one after getting out of the Swiss mercenary's field of vision, and said excitedly with a wave of his big hand: "Come out, my soldiers!" ”

Lin Haoda chose to summon the ten ordinary 'cheap' line infantry, before the 'cannon fodder' was not consumed to the cordon, Lin Haoda was reluctant to let the relatively elite line warrior infantry regiment act as the vanguard loss!

A burst of white light flashed, and in the originally empty open space, a neatly arranged small horizontal formation suddenly appeared, and there was a spacing several meters wide between each small horizontal square to distinguish each other.

In the small horizontal phalanx, there are band drummers with percussion instruments such as drums on their backs, company officers wearing command knives, and deputies at the grassroots level!

The only thing missing is the flag bearer.

Indeed, these summoned line infantry did not carry any flags!

Of course, Lin Haoda didn't care about this, what he valued was the rows of soldiers with solemn expressions, the bayonets and flintlock pistols on their shoulders!

After the appearance of the line infantry, the introduction information of the arms of the Total War also appeared in front of his eyes!

[Class: Line Infantry.]

Scale: 160 people per team

Maximum effective range: 80 yards

Description: The most commonly seen ordinary infantry. Marching and firing soldiers in two to four rows were mainly armed with smoothbore flintlock muskets and bayonets. Because the inaccuracy of firearms and the difficulty of loading at that time made it particularly important to use them in clusters and to shoot at closer range, the training focused on patience and formation, and advocated firing close to the enemy after the enemy shot and then charging with bayonets. Often because of the lack of continuous firepower caused by the destruction of the formation, the training of the line infantry pays great attention to maintaining the queue and the change of different formations, and this kind of training is also the origin of the students' complaining step queue during military training. As the main component of the army, the line infantry provides support, cover and a platform for tactical maneuver for other arms.

Equipment: Fusilier musket with bayonet.

Costume: Black tall hat, blue military uniform, buckled boots.

Advantages: cheap frontal cannon fodder, which can be used as the main part of the army.

Description: The mainstay of the army, an indispensable part of every battle, you can have no cavalry, or even no artillery, but there must be line infantry carrying bayonets and flintlock pistols, history has told us that the strongest tactics in modern firearms warfare are line infantry tactics! 】

In addition to this basic information introduction, the all-out war system also told Lin Haoda that each small horizontal phalanx is equivalent to a complete military company, and the orders that need to be issued can be directly notified to their company commander, and if the company leader is unfortunately killed on the battlefield, their deputy will be replaced, if the deputy is also dead......

Well, the casualties have reached this point, and with the morale level of the line infantry, it is almost not far from collapse......

"Haha, there are 1,600 people in total, or attack from the inside, the Bastille will soon become my base camp!"

Lin Haoda looked at his army feverishly and began to give the first order!
