This small battle at Brenlei may not have been comparable to the earth-shattering battles of Napoleon's life, but it was the first difficult test of his military career.

And this is the same for Han Xing, this is the first time he joined a large-scale battle as a cavalryman (shēn) in the Napoleonic era, in the [A Song of Ice and Fire] world, Han Xing may have been tempered by the flames of war, but in the [Napoleonic era], Han Xing is a rookie who has never been on the battlefield. The age of knights has disappeared in the long river of time, the glory of knights has fallen, muskets are the mainstream of this era, and only some chivalry has been handed down.

On the sea of Toulon Bay, countless British warships sailed along the skyline towards Cape Brun, the warships of the Age of Sail were really beautiful, they had high masts, and beautiful white sails hung on them, blowing in the sea breeze, bulging high, like the skirts of a maiden. The wooden ship (shēn) is decorated with a variety of colorful ship's bows, vividly carved, and the simple wooden planks are covered with a layer of varnish that sparkles in the sunlight.

Dozens of warships sailed in this way in the turquoise sea, and against the backdrop of the warm sea breeze and bright sunshine, it seemed that they were dancing white-clothed girls on the blue stage, under the beautiful lights.

However, Han Xing didn't have the heart to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him, because as the fleet gradually approached, the huge ship (shēn) made Han Xing's heart tremble, and he didn't sweat for Napoleon and those French troops who were in the Bren base! Think about it, Napoleon was only a few dozen cannons, and he had already launched an earth-shattering momentum.

And on the most majestic battleship of the Royal Navy, there are dozens of guns on one side alone, and there are dozens of other ships, not to mention, there are also a dozen or twenty guns! Not to mention Qi (shè), even a spit can blow up Napoleon and the third-rate fortifications of the civil structure, the Brenlei! Of course, ships don't have such a difficult action as spitting, which is as simple as a cannonball!

"My Lord Hansen, can you be faster! A little later, we can collect Napoleon's body! Han Xing looked at the British Navy giant ship that had entered two thousand meters, and immediately urged Sir Hansen.

"What are you urging, I'm busy! It's not a meal now, so how can you ask me to invite them to dinner? Am I not allowed to go to the flagship first? Sir Hansen replied impatiently.

While Han Xing was anxiously waiting, the British troops below had already begun to surround Napoleon's Buren Fortress, and at this time, the artillery could no longer play any role due to the angle of attack and the obstruction of the city wall, but fortunately, the smoothbore guns in the hands of the infantry began to play a role in time.

Under the command of the captains, the French took turns to rise from behind the city walls (shēn), aimed their smoothbore guns at the British troops below, and began a three-stage (shè) attack. The French army occupied the city walls and was in a high position, while the British army was densely packed, so the first wave of blows was extremely effective, and three or four hundred British troops fell after the first blow.

And the high quality of the Red Coats is undoubtedly revealed at this moment, they do not change their faces around those casualties of their comrades, continue to approach the Brom Fortress step by step (bī), this is the terrible thing about the British Red Coats, they are good at the "riding face" tactics of step by step (bī), although it seems that they have suffered heavy casualties, but compared to the casualties that the enemy is about to suffer, their casualties are simply insignificant!

When the first platoon finished firing and began to reload the ammunition, the second platoon immediately followed up and began to hit the British, followed by the third platoon, and this is the advantage of the three-stage (shè) attack - non-stop fire! In the distant early arquebus era, this type of fire (shè) largely compensated for the slow reloading speed of muskets.

The famous red-clothed army is going to be deflated this time! Because the French army was now firmly entrenched in the city, covered by the city walls, even if they were close to a hundred meters, it was still difficult to hurt the French army hiding behind the strong fortifications! A few (shè) blows also yielded little success, and most of the bullets only hit the outer wall of the Buren Fortress, especially since the fortifications of the Buren Fortress were built by the British themselves, which is a proper irony!

In response to the suppression of the fire of these redcoats, Napoleon immediately ordered his soldiers to change the way of attacking, making them crouch at the battlements, and only stretch out their smoothbore guns to shoot downwards, which means that they hardly need to expose their guns to the guns of the British army!

As a result, the British army gained nothing after two rounds of (shè) attacks, but the French army, relying on the fortifications, made a lot of gains, and occupied almost one-sided towards the French army.

The clever British commanders immediately tried to change the situation, and they immediately spotted the gap north of Brunley, and began to concentrate their men, trying to see it as a breakthrough.

But Napoleon had already expected this, so how could he let them in so easily? As the British flocked to the gap, they were greeted by the roar of a dozen guns, including two shotguns. The redcoats who rushed towards the gap were immediately dealt a fatal blow, and a large number of soldiers with muskets screamed and were knocked to the ground by the shells, falling to the ground in pools of blood, convulsing unconsciously.

Now that the British Navy was within 500 meters of Brunley, the largest British warship had begun to turn its rudder, revealing the dense hideous muzzles on the side and beginning to destroy the weak fortifications of Brenley!

In an instant, the flagship still fired!

Han Xing almost didn't dare to open his eyes, he blocked his vision with his hand, during this time of getting along, Han Xing and Napoleon have established a friendship, for him, Napoleon is no longer that historical figure in the textbook, but a living person!

Let him watch Napoleon being torn to shreds, he can't do it! Napoleon's parting words faintly rang in his ears, "You are our only hope for victory!" "Today we will write history together!"

And his own answer, "Don't worry, I won't let you down!" The voice seemed to have just fallen, and it was still echoing (dàng) in Han Xing's ear.

"I'm sorry, Napoleon! I've let you down after all! Han Xing covered his face in pain, and there was a sour feeling in his nose.

The imaginary cannon sound did not appear, on the contrary, the sound from a distance sounded as comical as 放 (pì), and Han Xing even heard the French cavalry on the side of (shēn) all laugh wildly, "The British cannons have also eaten their stomachs!" Even a cannon made of steel can't withstand the ravages of dark English cuisine! Hahaha! "Their cannon is fired!"

Han Xing hurriedly looked at the sea, but found that none of the British warships fired shells, and the sides of their ships were covered with black smoke, and the sound of artillery dumb fire sounded one after another.

"Richard, how did you do that?" Han Xing immediately thought of Sir Hansen and immediately contacted him.

"I thought you wouldn't think it was me! I wet their gunpowder beforehand, it's as simple as that! "Sir Hansen in the picture looks in a hurry, his pretty blonde hair wet and sticky together.

"So many boats, so possible?" Han Xing was surprised.

"How could it not be? Do you remember when I had a private army? Besides, you think I'm a fool! I had already anticipated the Battle of Toulon, and I had done my homework on Napoleon's experience beforehand, so I had already begun to prepare for it! Sir Hansen suddenly lit a match, illuminating the surrounding space, and then lit a fuse.

"Good news, you're still welcome in the UK! Bad news, you owe me an adult (qíng)! For your sake, I'm out of the way! Get ready for the fireworks show! Sir Hansen runs as if deadly until he reaches the deck, then leaps into the sea at a graceful angle, and finally climbs into a lifeboat and rows off into the distance.

Almost at the same time, Han Xing saw a violent explosion of the largest heavy battleship in the distance, the other party's flagship, the source of the explosion seemed to be its stern, and the flames instantly engulfed it. By the time the fire had gone, it was already sloping with smoke, and after a few minutes, its (shēn) shadow was gradually engulfed by the sea.

Having lost their flagship, the leaderless British fleet was forced to retreat, and their white sails eventually disappeared into the sea.

At this time, the offensive and defensive battle of Brun Fortress below had entered the stage of whitening, and as the British army approached step by step, the infantry had already begun to fight with bayonets!

"Cavalrymen! Here's our chance! Let's go and kill the Brits down there! Charge! Han Xing knew that it was time for him to go out, so he pulled out his broken heart and shouted at the more than 600 cavalrymen behind (shēn).

"Charge! For the great France! The cavalrymen, with their sabers in their right hands and the tips of their swords pointed forward, urged their horses to rush out of the forest to the north, and then stabbed the British troops in the back like boning knives with the force of their condescending swords.

For a while, the sound of horses' hooves like thunder sounded on the hillside behind the British army, and the ground shook with it, but the British troops in front of the (shēn) were unaware of this, because the sound of artillery and the battle that had entered the white (rè) made them concentrated, and they were naturally defenseless after (shēn)!

The first to be unlucky were the artillery of the British army, these guys barely showed their faces in this war, and the British army only had a mere ten guns, which was pitiful compared to the dozens of guns of the French army! So they didn't dare to show their faces at all, so they had to hide behind and play soy sauce, and finally approached the Buren fortress under the cover of the infantry, and because of the angle, the French artillery could not hit them.

They were about to show their hands (shēn) and show their belly and belly, but they unexpectedly became a "dead soul under the sword" of the French cavalry led by Han Xing! When these artillerymen saw the light cavalry led by Han Xing, they seemed to have seen ghosts, they were powerless to resist the condescending cavalry, and they were crushed in an instant, suffering more than two-thirds of the casualties.

Then the light cavalry, led by Han Xing, began to rush to the back of the infantry, but unfortunately the previous artillery still played a little role, and their artillery made the French light cavalry have to slow down their horses, or even go around, which made the speed and impact of the light cavalry greatly reduced.

However, the light cavalry still killed the back of the British infantry, and the horses crashed into the back row of the British soldiers and flew into the air, and smashed heavily on the backs of their comrades in front, and they were horrified to find themselves attacked by the back. And the sharp sabers of the cavalry had pierced their backs and slashed their throats.

Han Xing also stabbed several red-clothed soldiers to death with a broken heart, and even though the speed was affected and decreased slightly, this charge was still remarkable, killing and wounding more than 500 people on the other side almost at one time.

If this state of affairs continued, it was only a matter of time before the French army won the war, but it was then that a sudden change occurred.

A group of British cavalry, about 300 men, came from behind the hill, and the straight (tǐng) (tǐng) rushed to the rear of the French light cavalry.

"Damn, those artillerymen are a (yòu) bait!" Han Xing immediately understood the intentions of the British army, and they used artillery as an outcast, lured the snake out of the hole, and used heavy artillery to slow down the speed of the French cavalry. This is a clever tactic, after all, what damage can a cavalry saber do to a cannon? The cannon will not be damaged, at most a few artillery casualties!

The addition of cavalry immediately boosted the morale of the British troops, and the British infantry began to counterattack, smoothbore guns + bayonets, and the length had also reached almost two meters. Only the French light cavalry with sabers began to fall one by one under the front and rear sieges, which was the main reason for the high rate of cavalry losses, and the situation of the battle was developing in a direction that was unfavorable to their side.

The moment Napoleon saw Han Xing's cavalry, his eyes bloomed with brilliance, but as the battle reached a stalemate, even his gray-blue eyes began to lose their brilliance, and at this moment, the soldiers in the east suddenly burst into cheers.

"It's the French army! It's the French, and we're saved! Reinforcements are coming! "On the plain of Brunais, an army appeared under the tricolor banner, which symbolized the revolution.
