Chapter 248: The first good leader in the history of "bringing bad".
With the Devil Terminator taking the lead and sweeping the Austrian army in front and attracting their firepower, the French easily stormed the fortress of Mantua, and began to concentrate their forces to take the section of the wall to the left of the gap in the wall, so as to capture the gate and prepare the ground for their own army to attack the fortress of Mantua.
The Devil Terminator is a good shield that attracts firepower! They (shēn) were tall and muscular, and they stood out in the midst of the French army, as if they stood out from the crowd, which was a striking and conspicuous one! Eighty percent of the Austrian soldiers' bullets flew towards them, but unfortunately these bullets were not even qualified to tickle the Devil Terminator! Hit their skin, which is tougher and stronger than crocodile skin, and it was bounced off!
At the beginning, the French soldiers looked at these terrifying big guys, even if they knew that they were their own people, they were still apprehensive, God knows if these "giants" would turn their faces and then kill them indiscriminately! So they ducked back as soon as they saw the Devil Terminator, and almost every Devil Terminator (shēn) kept a safe distance of two meters from each side.
However, under the blow of the Austrian garrison, the excellent (ròu) shield (xìng) of the Devil Terminator was immediately revealed, they seemed to be a solid mobile barrier, and their (shēn) shadow seemed to be as tall and majestic as a hill, and a few (qíng) French soldiers who were hiding behind them (shēn) in a hurry quickly discovered the benefits of the Devil Terminator, and they followed behind the Devil Terminator, using them as mobile fortifications, relying on the tall body of the Devil Terminator for defense, Attacking the enemy (shè) at the head of the city from both sides is simply refreshing!
On several occasions, the Devil Terminator cleared the Austrian firepower points for them, successfully blocking many attacks for the French, and unconsciously saving the lives of many of them.
Just as a lewd Austrian skirmish hid on the roof of a two-story building and aimed a French soldier with a smoothbore gun, the Devil Terminator relied on the outstanding perception of the T-virus evolution to lock on to the Austrian skirmish at a glance, and stretched out his palm to block the fatal bullet. Then he ran wildly towards the two-story building, hitting his head straight through, destroying the pillars and collapsing the entire building.
Although the Devil Terminator was just a subconscious gesture, it seemed to the soldier to save his life, wasn't it? There was even a section of the city wall that cracked after the shelling, and when the French army marched, it fell off with a bang, and the boulder several meters long and wide was about to fall into the French formation, just when the soldiers were so frightened that their faces were pale, holding their heads and trembling, they suddenly found that the stone did not fall on their heads.
Who is it? Of course, it was the Devil Terminator, and several Devil Terminators worked together to hold up a piece of the sky for these soldiers and fight for a chance to survive. In just ten minutes, the Devil Terminator and the French soldiers became one, and their (shēn) shadow made the French soldiers seem to recall their childhood years, when his father's (shēn) shadow was so tall that there was nothing he could not bear, there was nothing he feared, as if Hercules could hold up the sky.
The Devil Terminators were originally high genera (xìng), low IQ beings, their IQ was equivalent to that of a five- or six-year-old child, but it did not prevent them from understanding the meaning of the French soldiers. Children are the most able to perceive a person's attitude, who is good to them and who is not good to them, they can easily feel it.
Several of the soldiers were even sat on their shoulders by the Devil Terminator (yǔn), and these tank-like big guys had been unanimously approved by the entire French army. Some of the soldiers even began to mumble, "I don't know how I would have fought without these big guys!" ”
The white-knuckle battle at the head of the city was supposed to be the bloodiest and most brutal part of the war, because the Austrian army was more than 20,000 men, and the French army that had entered the city at this time did not exceed 15,000 people, but with the addition of the Devil Terminators, everything changed to a different situation.
At the top of the crowded city, the Devil Terminator rampage, rushing forward, slamming into a path along the way in the dense Austrian army at the head of the city, some Austrian soldiers were trampled directly into (ròu) sauce, and some were knocked down from the city. Their bayonets and muskets posed no threat to the Devil's Terminator, and they carried out mechanical (shè) strikes and stabs in vain, and their psychological defenses gradually crumbled under the screams of their companions, while the French only had to follow the Devil Terminator with guns and mending knives.
"Look, they succeeded! The gates of Mantua have been taken over by us! Napoleon pointed to the vague (shēn) figure waving the French tricolor flag at the head of the city of Mantua, and said excitedly to Han Xing.
"Marmont! Go and give the order and let the whole army start a general attack! Napoleon said to a radiant young man with short curly brown hair, a sharp slash, unsquinting eyes, and thick lips that symbolized loyalty.
"Marmont? It seems that this guy is also a big man under Napoleon! Han Xing touched his head and thought, he only vaguely remembered that he had heard this name, after all, the ten marshals under Napoleon were a little far away from modern times.
"He's a traitor!" Wang Pengfei said hatefully.
"Wouldn't it? He has a loyal and honest appearance! Han Xing looked at Marmont's face and said in disbelief.
"It's true!" Louis XVI sighed. "He supported the restoration of my brother Louis XVIII after the Battle of Leipzig! After all, it's all for France~ He's just a person who knows more about current affairs, and he can't be blamed! Clearly, Louis XVI was a serious royalist "former leader", and Louis XVI was positive in his assessment of Marmont.
"Next time, don't you keep telling me who are traitors and how they died, okay? It's easy for me to be prejudiced against them! Han Xing said to Wang Pengfei in pain.
This young unpretentious lad did not look like he would commit a shameful act at all, or rather, the betrayal of Murat and Marmont and others, and even the future conflict between Louis (Napoleon's younger brother) and Napoleon, was largely due to Napoleon's excessive bounty.
To put it simply: Napoleon was too good for them! Louis became the king of the Netherlands with the support of Napoleon, and later Napoleon planned to launch a continental blockade policy in Europe (trade sanctions against Britain), but Louis this kid went against Napoleon, and said, "This is not conducive to the economic development of the Netherlands, and the Netherlands needs overseas trade to guarantee the treasury revenue!" ”
Feeling that through the paper, Han Xing could read the monstrous anger in Napoleon's heart when he heard that Louis was against him, "Are you my brother? Can you be the king of the Netherlands, or I'll give you a hand! You're going against me now? Is there any reason for this? Also the Dutch economy? Lao Tzu has fallen, and you still want to continue to be the king of the Netherlands? The economy of the Netherlands is your business! It's none of your business if the Dutch are dead, right? Do you know what to prioritize? Fight down the British, you have time to engage in maritime trade, and you can be the king of England! ”
Of course, this is not Napoleon's original words, but Han Xing knows what Napoleon wants to say even if he guesses with his toes. It can only be said that Napoleon was too generous to the people on the side of (shēn), and there is a way to "promote Mien, fight Mi hatred", since the territory was sealed for these guys, one of their hearts has been transferred to their own one-third of an acre of land, just thinking about their own money and territory, gradually eroded selfishness and short-sightedness, all of them have become slaves of the land, frogs at the bottom of the well, and turtles with shrunken heads.
As everyone knows, Napoleon is the fundamental source of their wealth, power and status, the big tree behind them! One must build on a firm foundation? Therefore, 人 (xìng) cannot stand the test!
Thanks to the Devil's Terminator and the French army, the fortress of Mantua eventually fell into the hands of Napoleon, and our Italian conquistadors entered the city of Mantua to the rhythm of the Marseillaise.
"Major Hanschel Segaard, for your outstanding performance in the Battle of the Arcola Bridge, as commander of the Italian Front, I hereby promote you to colonel!" In the town hall square in the city of Mantua, under the watchful eye of the entire Italian legion, and to the rhythm of the "La Marseillaise", Napoleon performed a brief promotion ceremony.
"So generous? Is it really good to move up two levels in a row like this? Han Xing's heart was excited, but he still asked modestly and quietly.
"It's okay! You lead the cavalry unit back to the enemy rear at the Akola Bridge! That alone is enough for you to move up two levels in a row! Napoleon whispered in his ear as he was changing the collar badge for Han Xing.
Han Xing was not the only one in this award ceremony, there were many other officers at all levels, and it took two hours to finish.
"I said, you better take it easy! The reason why the military rank system exists is to encourage the active (xìng) of the soldiers! But you are always playing with the line of fire to promote, and when the time comes, they will have nothing to reward and nothing to seal, won't you be embarrassed? After the promotion ceremony, Han Xing took Napoleon and sat down on a bench in the central square of Mantua.
"Isn't that how it should be? Isn't it true that after a soldier has made a meritorious service, he will not be rewarded, or just promoted by one or two levels, so that he is worthy of the soldiers' life and death, and bloody battles? Napoleon said with a little dissatisfaction, he was also a petty officer, and knew how difficult it was to get ahead.
"When I was a second lieutenant in artillery, my colleagues on the side always bullied me because of my xìng personality problems! Since then, I've vowed to keep talent from being buried! I want to make full use of the talents of everyone who has military talent! They deserve justice! ”
Napoleon's qíng became agitated, as if he remembered what had happened to him. He is obviously talented, but he is not taken seriously, so he hopes to pave a smooth road for those who come after him, so that their birth and death are worth the price.
"Napoleon, I understand what you mean! If I were a soldier, I would be proud to have a general like you! But if everyone in the army is a general or a marshal, wouldn't that be chaos? If you want to make your soldiers brave and hardworking, you can't just reward them! ”
"Have you ever had a horse? What would you do if you wanted the horse to listen to you? Han Xing had a flash of inspiration and thought of an example.
"Feed it! And it cultivates a sense (qíng)! Napoleon replied almost without thinking.
"That's right! But what do you do when you want the horse to speed up? Han Xing asked in a good way.
"Whip its (pì) strands!" After Napoleon subconsciously said this, he was immediately stunned by his own words, as if he had been electrocuted.
"If you just build a sense of feeling with the war horse by feeding it, after getting used to this pattern, one day you run out of food and can't meet the horse's requirements, and it will not leave!"
"You mean that I've always looked at things from the perspective of a soldier. Now that he is a general, his mind has not turned a corner? Troops are like horses, and if you blindly motivate them through rewards, it is likely to lead them to grow their appetite more and more, and eventually reach the point where I can't be satisfied? Napoleon was quick to think and could be said to understand a little, and he quickly read Han Xing's overtones.
"That's right, so you'll have to find a way to combine punishment and reward! In this way, we can create a strong division with strong combat power! Han Xing never thought that one day he would become a "helper" who helped the black-hearted boss to engage in team building, and he couldn't even believe that he was actually teaching Napoleon, the "best leader in history", to gradually develop in the direction of a black-bellied "labor crusher"!
