485 Napoleonic formation

The two armies were close to each other, and the French army was demoralized by a volley and began to retreat. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Isaac didn't choose to charge himself, because the battlefield was full of stray bullets, and lead bullets were poisonous, and once he took a hit, it was likely that he would die before he could be treated. Isaac is an opportunist, so he has a strong sense of risk control, and he would rather sit back and watch his army be slaughtered than risk his own life.

Just because he doesn't charge doesn't mean he's helpless.

"The battle regiment will go up and give the battlefield the right to execute, and those who escape from the battle will be killed!" Isaac drew his sword and shouted in a decisive manner, and issued a series of cruel orders: "The artillery aims at the infantry line and fires! The light cavalry on both flanks outflanks and cuts off the opponent's retreat with numerical superiority!"

"The cavalry regiment is attacking!" the red-faced commander shouted vigorously to convey Isaac's order: "The overseer shall exercise the right of execution!

The artillery position was ordered to open fire - the roar of the field artillery rang out, and the solid iron ball flew past the hat of the fleeing soldier, whistling and shattering the heads of the fleeing Frenchmen, and then crashed into the turf, bouncing and plowing at the pursuing Germans, breaking countless thighs like bamboos, but whenever the shells passed, the brains must have splattered and the blood flowed like rivers.

This kind of indiscriminate killing and killing restrained the German offensive to a certain extent.

Immediately afterwards, the temporarily organized overseer rushed to the defeated army on horseback, and reined in front of the panicked French army, roaring hoarsely: "Deserters are executed!

The fierce Overseer frightened the deserters. The escape route of the defeated soldiers thus stalled, forming a dense wall of people in front of the Overseer. And the Warlord did not dare to kill people easily, but only roared and urged in place.

When the deserters saw that the war supervisor shouted that he would not kill, he suddenly became emboldened, and scattered in a hurry, and was defeated like a mountain.

Suddenly, the commander rushed out on horseback, brushed shoulders with a deserter with a saber, the deserter was decapitated in an instant, his head flew into the sky, his body staggered a few steps under inertia, and fell two meters away, the blue French hat was pushed into the air by the red fountain, and when he rolled to the ground, his head was still in the hat.

"The Holy Emperor has given the right to execute on the battlefield! Deserters are executed on the spot, and those who don't want to die will turn around and continue fighting!" The commander shouted with his bloody saber and scolded.

The war overseers immediately opened a killing spree, and they rode their horses to catch up with the deserters, their hands falling with their swords, and their heads flying wildly.

The defeated French army was originally infantry, and had no resistance to the cavalry supervising the battle; moreover, the overseers were all officers, and it was the army commander who took the lead in executing the deserters. In addition, the German army was suppressed by artillery fire, and the pressure was reduced, which made the French army even more motivated to fight again.

The defeated French army was forced to regroup and begin to resist.

The light cavalry of the Paris legion, outflanking the German flank from the left and right, flying fast like horses, and the guns were endless, giving full play to the excellent firepower of the light cavalry, and the effect was outstanding, and the infantry on both flanks of the German army were shot and fell.

After the light cavalry finished firing a volley, they carried their guns on their backs, drew their sabers, like two swarms of bees, whistling to outflank the German army, and suddenly rushed up, interspersed in depth, and completely broke the German infantry line in an instant, divided into left, center, and right sections, and cooperated with the Paris infantry to form a front and rear encirclement trend, and was about to eat the two wings of the German army and complete the purpose of encirclement.

Despite the bravery of the Parisian light cavalry, it was not the light cavalry that defeated the Germans.

The Germans were not at a disadvantage. As early as when the hussars were outflanking, the German officers sensed that they would be flanked from the front and rear. Therefore, regardless of the artillery fire, they shouted hoarsely: "Change the formation, change the formation! The regiments will become hollow formations to resist the cavalry!"

The Germans hastily stopped the offensive, and stood in a hollow circle back to back in regiments, with the muzzles of their guns unified, and there was sufficient firepower to resist the outflanking and interspersing of the cavalry, both front and back, and the snow bayonets were like hedgehogs, forming a metal jungle, which made the cavalry even more daunting.

Hollow circles, which can shoot enemies in all directions, are the most powerful means of infantry against outflanking by light cavalry, and if cavalry is surrounded by multiple hollow circles, they will be covered by crossfire and die a terrible death.

Without infantry support, cavalry is nothing. This cavalry is equivalent to dying at this time.

In fact, the Germans, well-trained and decisive in their formations, were supposed to be invincible. But a subtle problem arose: they charged for a kilometer, got out of the cover range of their own artillery and went into the accurate range of enemy artillery.

The hollow circle formation, although it can effectively defend against cavalry, has multiplied the area of ammunition, and it is extremely afraid of artillery targeting.

At the life-and-death moment when the Germans were most afraid of artillery fire, Isaac turned around and roared: "Pull out the remaining forty guns!"

On the pitch-black hills 200 meters away, dozens of tarps were torn apart at the same time, and thousands of torches were lit up layer by layer, lighting up the terrifying artillery position: 40 artillery pieces, more than 200 horses, and thousands of artillery pieces were all waiting beside the neatly arranged field guns; countless arrogant muzzles of the guns pointed at the German troops close at hand, as if death had raised a sickle!

Fifty field guns, completely more than a division should have firepower, and Isaac deliberately hid the number of artillery just for this moment of a full-scale blow!

At this moment, tongues of fire spewed out, cannons continued to sound, and the land of Germany trembled with sorrow, shaking with the roar of thunder.

In an instant, the artillery offensive, which was five times more dense than the "misguided firepower", poured down on the German positions that had just completed the formation.

In order to resist the cavalry, the German army changed from a "long snake" line formation to a hedgehog formation that "bloomed everywhere" -- in this big moment, they encountered a perfect artillery attack, and the German army was suddenly blown up all over the ground, and the hedgehog formations back to back were blown away by artillery fire.

The defensive tactics of closely relying on comrades-in-arms suddenly became the perfect target for large-scale artillery shelling.

The German commander in the distance heard that the artillery fire in Paris was 5 or 6 times denser, and his face turned pale, and he regretted his miscalculation.

The Germans were bombarded by artillery fire, the formation was no longer there, and the men turned on their backs. Even the shouts of the officers were drowned out in the sound of the mighty cannons, the corpses stumbling over the survivors were stumbling, the fountains of earth were pouring over their heads, and the dark sky seemed like the end of the world.

By the time the artillery fire had stopped, the stumps and severed arms had been scattered all over the territory. The German officer, whose eardrums were rattled, finally had a chance to breathe.

To their suffocation, Isaac's reason for stopping the shelling was that the light cavalry of the Paris Legion had flown over the German flanks, moved to an outflanking position, launched an unstoppable assault, and began to divide and encircle the delirious remnants of the German army.

With the help of artillery, the German positions were interspersed with light cavalry depths and divided into the three major blocks described above.

At the same time, the defeated French infantry had regrouped, and black clouds were pressing down on the city. The infantry and cavalry completed the division and encirclement of the German army at the same time, and finally flanked the front and rear - as long as they took advantage of the situation to eat the forces of the German flanks, they could join forces to besiege the Chinese army, and give full play to the essence of the unstoppable oblique attack tactics, so that the advantage expanded faster than dominoes.

This is the standard interpretation of the art of war, and it is the artistic reversal of defeat into victory.

The commander of Paris was thrilled and convinced. He rushed to the imposing Isaac in a high mood, reined in his horse beside the leader, and congratulated him with a heartfelt heart: "Your Excellency Isaac, your tactical attainments have reached the pinnacle of this era. It is the honor of my life to witness this miraculous victory. ”

"To say something unpleasant—what kind of emperor is Fran the Great to whom you are allegiance?" Isaac was confident, and he stretched out his hand in the darkness of the night, and proudly grasped the lights of the enemy camp: "Infantry, cavalry, and artillery are the essence of Napoleon's tactics. In this era, the laws of the battlefield summarized by any general could not match Napoleon's neck, and even Fran the Great was not qualified to play his incarnation! I, and only I, am the master of this world. ”

With the sword in his hand, he became the master of the world!

This famous sentence of Napoleon's great pride was repeatedly quoted by Fran the Great and was regarded as an ideal by President Frederick.

And it was Isaac who really made Napoleon's formation more powerful!

"Who is Napoleon? and you are slandering the Great...... You slandered the Emperor of Paris like this......" The commander of the army was caught off guard and muttered dumbfounded.

Isaac looked up and laughed, "Fran the Great is keen to work behind closed doors, and his mouth is full of paper. Do you see him as a leader? Can he bestow you miraculous victories? Can he lead you to the hegemony of the world? Loyalty is precious and fraught with risk, and perhaps you should reconsider your investment. ”

The commander of Paris was dumbfounded for a moment, and he already understood the voiceover in seconds. He remembered Isaac's ruthlessness and composure after losing his relatives, he remembered Isaac's possession of the gods but was rational and restrained, he remembered Isaac's advanced and extraordinary conceptual literacy, and he remembered Isaac's unfathomable genius.

In just one day, Isaac's precise planning, Isaac's tactical deception, and Isaac's innovative troop coordination are a treasure trove that the commander will never learn in his life.

The commander realized that he had met a once-in-a-lifetime saint.

"My allegiance belongs to you, honorable Lord Isaac. "If the commander is no longer loyal, even he will call himself stupid.

Isaac waved in agreement, dismissive, as if subduing a high-ranking military commander was just a natural necessity.
