Looking at the retreating troops of the Kingdom of Britain like a tide, Commander Raglan couldn't help but sigh.

The army of the Kingdom of Britain was so brave and good at fighting, but now the British army is unable to conquer even a small high ground.

Is this still the British army he knows? Why does it look so much like the Turkish army!

Just when Commander Raglan was mourning the loss of Britain's martial virtues, the Duke of Cambridge, who was standing next to Commander Raglan, hurriedly spoke up and said with relief: "Your Excellency, this is just a small tentative attack! If you are not satisfied, I will immediately organize the personnel to continue the attack on the opposite high ground. ”

"Forget it! Never mind! Commander Raglan shook his head and replied to the Duke of Cambridge: "You must immediately reorganize the withdrawn troops, and you must not let this defeat affect the morale of our army!" ”

"Yes! Your Excellency, Commander! The Duke of Cambridge, following Commander Raglan's instructions, saluted Commander Raglan and turned away.

Commander Raglan, who was on horseback, looked solemnly at the Kazan Infantry Brigade on the multifaceted fortress in the distance, then sighed and turned his horse and retreated.

Prince Menshikov, who was stationed at the top of the Kurgan Mountain, used his binoculars to see Commander Raglan in a bright red military uniform in the distance, turned away, smiled and shouted: "We have won!" ”

The two staff officers and the soldiers around them, after hearing the shouts of Prince Menshikov, also shouted loudly, "We have won!" ”

One to ten, ten to hundred, the entire Kurgan Mountains are called for victory.

The morale of the British army on the north bank of the Arma River inevitably fell after hearing the cheers of the Russian Empire.

However, this demoralization did not last long, and under the boots and whips of the British officers, the "cattle" of the Kingdom of Britain soon forgot about these things and threw themselves wholeheartedly into the next war.

……

As Commander Raglan rode towards the Allied Headquarters, General Pellisier approached him as well.

The commanders of the British and French armies met in the middle of the road, and Commander Raglan asked General Pelisier curiously: "Commander Pelisier, where are you going!" ”

"I was going to look for you! Commander Raglan! General Pelisier replied to Commander Raglan.

"Looking for me?" Commander Raglan looked at General Perissier suspiciously.

"That's right! My staff officers have devised a plan to conquer Arma, and I want to discuss it with you! Pelissier pointed to the document tucked under his arm and said to Commander Raglan.

"Then let's go to the headquarters and talk about it in detail!" Commander Raglan replied to Commander Perissier.

"Yes!" Pelissier nodded and replied.

Together with Commander Raglan, Pelisier arrived at the Allied Headquarters, a mansion built on a high ground 5 kilometers northwest of the Alma River, whose owner had dragged his family to Simferopol before the arrival of the Four-Nation Alliance.

Naturally, everything in the mansion was forcibly requisitioned by the coalition forces to serve as the headquarters of the coalition headquarters.

When General Pelisier and Commander Raglan arrived at the castle, the Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, Larg. Maramor and the Ottoman Omar Pasha were already waiting for them in the mansion.

The commanders-in-chief of the expeditionary forces of the four countries sat down at a round table, and General Pelisier spread the document in his hand on the round table, and then placed the document in the folder, which had already been divided into four parts, and said: "Look at it first!" ”

The three people present flipped through the pages of the plan brought by General Perissier, and after a while, Commander Raglan spoke: "I do not agree with the use of Mount Kurgan as a feint target!" ”

"Commander Raglan, what can you say about this plan differently!" General Pelisier asked Raglan with an open-minded and teachable expression.

"Undeniable! This plan is indeed a near-perfect plan, but I think we should target both Mount Akul and Mount Telegraph at the same time, and launch a devastating attack on the Russian Empire on the mountain! Commander Raglan replied to General Perissier.

"However, this approach could lead to a large number of casualties, and it would be unwise to attack head-on!" Pelissye retorted to Commander Raglan, then pointed to the map and said to Commander Raglan: "We just need to contain a part of the Russian Imperial soldiers on the Kurgan Mountains, so that they have no way to move!" In this way, the rest of our army will be able to attack in a pincer shape on the left and right! It will definitely be able to annihilate the Russian Imperial Army guarding Kurgan and Telegraph Hill in one fell swoop! ”

"We ourselves have much more troops than the Russian Empire! Why take the risk if you can push flat? Commander Raglan replied in the same vein.

Although Commander Raglan said that he should not take risks but to hold on, in fact, Commander Raglan was thinking about how to get the honor of conquering Mount Kurgan.

Pellisier's plan was indeed a practical one, but it was somewhat unfriendly to the Kingdom of Britain.

If Pelissier's plan is followed, it is likely that the honor of conquering Mount Kurgan will not belong exclusively to the Kingdom of Britain, because the Kingdom of Britain will not be able to carry out Pelissier's plan with the existing forces.

This is very unfriendly to Commander Raglan, who has always wanted to wash his shame in blood.

"In that case, then do what you want!" General Pelisier took a step back, pointed to the map on the table, and said: "Early tomorrow morning, the British and Turkey will attack the Kurgan Mountains with all their might, and the Franco-Saxon armies will attack the heights of the Telegraph Mountains!" ”

"Yes!"

After the discussion, everyone returned to their respective camps for the next step of deployment.

That night, General Pellisier, acting commander of France, came to the camp of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

"Welcome, welcome!" Minister of War of the Kingdom of Sardinia. After receiving a report from his soldiers, Malamore hurried out of the camp to meet General Perisier.

"Minister Meramaor, I want to talk to you about tomorrow's attack! I don't know if you have time! General Pelisier asked directly.

"Of course there is time!" Pull. Malamore immediately replied to Pelisier, and then entered the camp with General Perissier.

Just sat down and pulled. Malamore immediately asked General Pellisier: "Coffee or tea!" ”

"Let's get a coffee!" Pelisier to Ra. Malamore responded.

Pull. Malamoor summoned his lieutenant and ordered him to prepare two cups of coffee and some pastries specially delivered from the Apennines.

No matter where it is, no matter where it is. The kingdom of Sardinia had to maintain a style of extravagant pleasure.

Of course, this situation was not limited to the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the standard of living of all high-ranking officers, including France, was severely fragmented by the lower classes.

However, the kingdom of Sardinia was more divided.

Snacks and coffee from Italy soon found their way into the tents. Malamole ate a pastry and discussed.

"I plan to devote all the regiments of our two countries that are good at mountain warfare to the plan to attack Telegraph Mountain!" Pelissier spread the map out on La . Maramor pointed to the map in front of him. "These regiments will be climbing close to the cliffs, and when they reach the top of the hill, they will immediately flank and outflank the defenders on Telegraph Hill!"

During the time of the landing of these regiments, I will send my Guards Division to deter the troops on Telegraph Hill, so that they will mistakenly believe that we will attack Telegraph Hill from the front, so that they will not be able to perceive our disposition on the flank. When all our mountain troops have reached the south bank, it will be time for us to launch a general offensive against the Russian troops on the highland mountains.

At that time, those regiments will become an important force for the attack on the highland mountains"

Pelissier told Lasher about his plan to be cut in half by Commander Raglan. Malamore listened, pulled. After pondering for a moment, Malamoor nodded and replied to Pelisier: "Commander Pelissier, I agree with you!" ”

"It's great to have your consent!" A smile appeared on General Perissier's face, and he reached out to Ra. Malamore said.

General Pelisier and La. General Malamoor shook hands with each other and then pulled a hand. General Perissier, escorted by Malamore, returned to the camp.

By the way, after the meeting was dismissed, Commander Raglan and Omar Pasha did not ask Pelisier and Lasha to the meeting. Maramore.

Therefore, in the hearts of the two people, each has some set of offensive plans.

……

Just as General Pelissier was about to lie on his marching bed and prepare to rest, Brigadier General Trochu appeared in General Pelisier's camp.

"What's going on?" General Pellisier asked Brigadier General Trochu suspiciously.

"General Perissier, St. Marshal Arno woke up! Brigadier General Trochu replied to General Pelisier in an excited tone.

After listening to Brigadier General Trochu's words, General Pellisier's eyes flashed with a touch of loneliness.

Saint. The awakening of Field Marshal Arnault meant that he, acting commander-in-chief, was about to become the commander of the Third Division again.

Although Pelisier was a little unwilling in his heart, a smile of joy still appeared on his face, and he hurriedly got up from his bed and followed Brigadier General Trochu to St. Troch. The sanatorium of Marshal Arnault.

At this time of the saint. Marshal Arnault was still on the verge of dying, and gasping for breath, he thanked Pellissier for being able to take his place and maintain stability in France when he was critically ill.

"Please don't say that! Now that you have woken up, you should be the marshal of France! General Pelisier respectfully addressed the saint in front of him. Marshal Arno said.

"General Perissier, do you think I am in this state where I can command the army?" Saint. Marshal Arnault replied weakly to General Pellisier: "Since they have chosen you for this position, then I hope you do not refuse." You, like me, were one of the first generals to support Your Majesty, and you are qualified to lead them! And ......"

Saint. Marshal Arno paused, lowered his voice and said to Pelisier: "Don't you want to get a marshal's scepter?" ”

Thinking of the marshal's scepter, Pellisier couldn't help but take two breaths, a marshal is the highest honor a general can receive, and Pellisier naturally wants to get a marshal's scepter.

Even if the marshal of the empire has a much lower gold content than the original empire.
