Unfortunately, Frederick's swearing did not have any effect, and after most of the fierce battle, which began in the early morning, the news of the breakthrough of the two wings, which Leopold I had been expecting, still did not come!

The worst thing is that the German coalition army, which was originally strong, has lost all its infantry reserves!

At this time, even the tactical depth deliberately elongated by the main force of the German coalition forces of the Holy Roman Empire was compressed to the extreme by the Taiping army that was constantly breaking through on the layers of corpses.

As a last resort, Leopold I and a group of German noble generals resent the previously retreated and reorganized troops to plug the gap, so as to prevent the entire middle road from being completely cut through by the elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army.

At this time, Leopold I and a group of German noble generals found that they could not even retreat unless they were willing to abandon all the infantry and flee the battlefield with only the remnants of the cavalry.

However, if this is done, it is basically equivalent to throwing the main force of the German coalition army of the Holy Roman Empire to the main force of the Taiping army to massacre at will, and then all the results will be in vain.

Although there were still a large number of Polish-Lithuanian Restoration Army in Poland in the rear, Leopold I and the German aristocratic generals never took them seriously, and always regarded them as militia weapons, and in terms of the equipment of the Polish-Lithuanian Restoration Army, it was no different from the militia......

Therefore, Leopold I would never allow this decisive battle to be abandoned, even if there was little hope of breaking through the two wings, he would drag the battle into nightfall, as long as the sun set, the defeated troops of the German coalition army could take advantage of the night to break away from contact with the Taiping army, and Leopold I would have a chance to fight again!

Although the losses of the German coalition army of the Holy Roman Empire were huge, the battle losses of the Taiping army were not small, as long as the defeated soldiers of the German coalition army were given a certain amount of time to rest and replenish, they could fight with the Taiping army again, which is another advantage of strong troops, of course, the premise is that the Taiping army will give the German coalition army this opportunity.

Obviously, the elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army, who kept advancing and advancing on the battlefield, breaking through and breaking through, and never retreating a single step, came with the goal of completely destroying the main force of the German coalition army, and were willing to pay a high price for this!

This is exactly what Hong Tiancheng meant.

The Taiping army is limited in number, he does not want to be dragged into a long war of attrition, Hong Tiancheng knows very well that this time Leopold I suffered a big loss in the frontal field, he will inevitably turn to strategic defense, and then want to eat this Holy Roman Empire German coalition army, undoubtedly have to pay a greater price!

A large number of routs were reorganized, and since many noble officers were killed by the Taiping army and escaped on the spot, Erdore was naturally 'promoted'......

All of a sudden, he went from being the military commander of a battalion of several hundred people to the commander of a temporary infantry regiment of more than two thousand people!

However, Erdore's old subordinates were less than a hundred, and he looked at the new face after the reorganization, sighed silently, and rode on the newly equipped war horse under the order of his superiors, and commanded the army to move forward again.

Fortunately, the German coalition army had a lot of money, and prepared a lot of modified flintlock pistols in the armament of the army, so that many defeated soldiers who threw away their weapons and fled back did not go to the battlefield empty-handed, which was the only good news that Erdore received......

If it weren't for the honor of the nobility to support Erdore, he would have left this damned battlefield a long time ago!

That group of Taiping troops can not only fight, but also die, this kind of enemy is no longer the word 'courage'......

Erdore, who originally scoffed at the rumors that the Han people are invincible, began to face this problem for the first time, and the previous front-line battle made Erdore understand that there was only one way to defeat the Taiping army, and to kill the opponent......

While praying to God, Erdore and other commanders who were also 'promoted and raised' commanded the soldiers to set foot on the front line again, and the overdraft of the reserve force caused the German coalition army to fall into chaos, and almost all the troops reorganized to the battlefield were improvised......

From this, it can also be seen that the military system of the Taiping Army is more advanced than the European Army Corps, which still has a feudal atmosphere in this era, and the unified standard of line and column tactical training has made it possible to reorganize the defeated troops who have retreated on the battlefield.

In order to stimulate the morale of these defeated soldiers, the German aristocratic generals such as Leopold I also made great promises of official hats and money, and aristocratic officers like Erdore, who did not die unlucky at the front line and did not flee from the battle, were almost all promoted to the next rank, and ordinary soldiers were promised double or even triple the promise of wartime allowances and pensions from their superiors.

This is an order signed by the emperor Leopold I himself, and the credibility is still quite high, and the noble lords of this era, especially the king and emperor, still pay great attention to reputation.

It was the stimulation of money that made the scattered defeated soldiers regroup, and they played with the elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army in the face of the rain of bullets and lined up to be shot!

Erdore couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart when he looked at the few German cavalry who escaped from the elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army and ran to the rear.

"Perhaps, I should leave this hellish Shura field like those colleagues who have escaped without a trace......" For the first time, Erdore began to doubt the correctness of the chivalry he had instilled in him since childhood.

There wasn't much time for Erdore to think about life, and soon, the German musketeers in the first row encountered the scattered elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army, which were the remnants of the Taiping Army who had just broken through the array and fought by the German cavalry.

After seeing the elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army, the German musketeers did not need Erdore's order at all, they stopped on their own, and there was no salvo, and the elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army were like thunderbolts and released their guns.

Erdore smiled wryly as he stared at the troops who didn't need to be 'commanded' at all, and his eyes had already begun to scan the best way to escape......

In stark contrast to the German musketeers, the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army, who were far fewer in number, shouted and charged forward, and after entering close range, they stood up straight and fired a shot, inserted a bayonet and carried a grenade.

The scattered grenades quickly fell into the German musket queue that was forced to retreat by the Taiping Army's brave posture, and after a few explosions, the German musket team phalanx that did not kill many people exploded, and Erdore was stunned to see the musket phalanx, which was four times larger than the previous response, and was knocked down by a few grenades from less than one-tenth of the Taiping Army's elite grenadiers, and felt that the whole person's world view collapsed!
