The second update, on July 1st, I hope you will support the first order

The French Foreign Legion fought more heroically than any other army, and the Prussian army tried to force its way across the bridge at Sasenno several times in a row, but was directly pressed back by the opponent with strong firepower. These foreign armies were even more courageous than the French, and their long history of fighting in the colonies in suppressive wars also gave them more experience. Left behind more than 5,000 men to support the small town of Sassenno and, together with the newly formed legions, to contain the Prussian army's retreat.

The rest of the people cooperated to intercept Prussian reinforcements, a typical strategy of encirclement and reinforcement.

An unpalatable fishbone, choked in the throat of the Prussian evacuation route.

The French Foreign Legion fought valiantly only because of a remark Napoleon had said to Villenes, when he questioned Napoleon why the French Foreign Legion had not been recognized by Paris after its death.

He replied to him bluntly, in the same tone as he had answered the members of Congress in 1802.

"Any soldier who died in the service of France, regardless of nationality, will be buried in the cemetery of Les Invalides, and this is the greatest honor we can give you loyalty."

Villenis, who has always regarded glory as everything, was speechless for a moment after hearing this. Originally, he only wanted to ask for an explanation for the brothers of the Foreign Legion, however, Napoleon gave the highest glory to the Foreign Legion most directly.

Legion of Honor.

It is the glory that every Frenchman dreams of.

This is also the reason why the French Foreign Legion single-handedly stopped the attack of several times its own enemy at the bridge of the small town of Sassenno, forcing the besieged Prussian army to have no way to retreat.

At the same time, the ambushed French army also began to attack, interspersed with encirclement, dividing the Prussian army of nearly 30,000 into dozens of encirclements, large and small, and annihilating them one by one.

The tragedy of Napoleon III's siege at Sedan a month earlier is now repeated in Bithenfeldt, where Napoleon III unfortunately had a town to cover up and the Prussian army exposed itself to enemy fire and was cut off from the base camp.

"What should we do?"

Albert had never seen such a disparity in battle, and the Prussians had become fish on the chopping block, and it was only a matter of time before they were all annihilated.

"Wait, you have to hold on!"

A distraught Bidianfelt grabbed Albert by the collar and roared, "If we can't hold it, we will be a disgrace to Germany!" The army led by Prime Minister Bismarck will definitely arrive, listen well, you must hold on! ”

Then another explosion sounded, and the Prussian army's will to fight was rapidly crumbling, and Albert and Bithenfeldt could even see the bright and conspicuous red pants of the French army in the depths of the gunsmoke.

Albert stared at the blackened figures emerging from the mist, as if they had come from hell, with the call of death. The flickering light took away the lives of all the Prussian soldiers who stood in front of them.

He stared blankly into the distance and muttered, "General, I don't think we can hold it." ”

Beertenfürth did not know that Bismarck's artillery reinforcements had arrived, and he originally wanted 20,000 troops to liberate the town of Saseno under the cover of artillery, but the situation on the scene was unexpected.

Prussia was confronted with several times its own artillery fire at Sassenno, as well as an overwhelming French attack, which was not at all different from the information sent back by Bidianfeldt, they were blocked from the town, and Bismarck's army was overwhelmed by artillery fire.

Artillery bombardment bloomed in the Prussian army, and several charges organized by Chastrov were routed. The French played the defensive battle to the fullest, holding back Bismarck's reinforcements, and attacking from both sides, cutting and encircling the supporting Prussian army.

The joy of victory had long since faded from Bismarck's face, leaving only a gloomy look. After being broken up by artillery fire for the third time, Chastrov came to Bismarck's face in disarray.

Apparently he had just fallen from his horse, covered in black mud.

"No, the enemy's firepower is too strong, even if our artillery units can suppress the opponent for a while, but as soon as the attacking troops approach Sassenno, they will be counterattacked by more powerful enemy firepower."

At a time when barrage had not yet appeared, Prussia did not dare to provide artillery support at close range of soldiers.

"And the Saseno siege was just a cover, our flanks were attacked by the enemy, who tried to intersperse the encirclement reinforcements. Prime Minister Bismarck, if we do not retreat, the fate of General Bidenfeldt will be our fate. ”

Chastrov wiped his dusty face, wiped the stains off his face, and said in a frightened tone, "There is also a mistake in our intelligence, the other side is not a reinforcement of tens of thousands of people at all, only a force of nearly 100,000 people can form such a scale." There are certainly other means in Paris that we do not know about have not been used, and these are not the full strength of France. We didn't annihilate the French forces in Sedan and Metz! ”

The more Bismarck listened, the angrier he became.

"Bidian Felt, you idiot, where is this reinforcement of 10,000 or 20,000 people, it is clearly more than 100,000 reinforcements! Aren't the elites of Paris still besieged at the Metz fortress? Where did they mobilize so many people?

Bismarck swung his saber and angrily cut off the branches at his feet, venting the anger in his chest.

He was fooled.

An outright deception that deceived the top brass of the Prussian army. Perhaps Bismarck would never have imagined until his death that the mobilization force of the French army in the later stage of the Franco-Prussian War would be even more perverted than that of Germany, and the Loire Army, which had assembled 600,000 troops in just two months, would have been able to turn the tide of the war in the later period if it were not for the cowardly surrender of Bazin's fools.

As a unique perspective of a traverser, Napoleon took advantage of this and ordered the Rhine legion to defend Metz.

Bismarck was in despair, and he was faced with a dilemma. He had previously issued a military order in front of William I, saying that he would attack Paris within today's time, but now it was clear that he was being put on the side by the French.

After calming down, Bismarck's heart welled up with a sense of foreboding.

Even from the time of Napoleon's defeat, they could not have mobilized such a large military force in a short period of time.

"Could it really be that the haunted Napoleon was resurrected and brought an army of the First Reich from hell?"
