"Report sir! The Zhuaf puppies (a scornful name for the Russian Empire) have already been touched! ”

The adjutant standing on the wall of the Star Fortress saw the soldiers of the Zhuaf Regiment who were constantly approaching the fortress under the city wall, and hurriedly ran down and said to the commander of the fortress.

At this time, the commander of the fortress was reorganizing the remaining soldiers in the fortress, and after listening to the adjutant's report, he turned his head and said to the adjutant beside him calmly: "I know, I have worked hard for you!" ”

With that, the fortress commander turned his head back and looked back at the soldiers.

The more than 300 soldiers in front of him were the only remaining strength in Sene, and now they were going to die with him, an incompetent commander, and he felt a little sorry for them.

"If any of you want to surrender, do so now! I don't blame you, really! You've worked so hard to save this fortress, this city! I am not in a position to tie you up to this sinking ship! The commander of the fortress said to everyone present with a sincere expression: "I only hope that after you surrender, you will not be like the guy who didn't know the integrity just now!" Always remember that you are a glorious Russian Empire! Even if we lose this war! As long as His Majesty's flag is flying in St. Petersburg, then we still have a chance.

In 3, 5, or even 10 years, we must believe that under the leadership of His Majesty the Tsar, the final victor will definitely belong to us.

So we don't want you to be captured and bow down like the Turks! Always remember that you are a glorious Russian Empire...... All right! I'm done talking, if any of you want to surrender, you can go now! I won't stand in the way! ”

As soon as the words fell, the fortress commander made way for the soldiers who wanted to surrender to France to pass.

None of the soldiers present chose to leave, and they stood there with determined eyes.

After 30 seconds, the commander of the fortress, who saw that there was still no movement, smiled, and finally reminded the soldiers present: "I am glad that you can make such a choice, but you should understand the consequences of such a choice. It's too late to regret it now! ”

"We don't regret it!" The battalion commander in charge of commanding the remnants of the defeated army replied resolutely.

"That's right! We don't regret it! ”

"No regrets"

……

There were also continuous shouts of "no regrets" among the soldiers, and the soldiers present really did not seem to regret their choice.

"Very good!" Once again, the Fortress Commander nodded at everyone present.

It was here that a voice of persuasion came from outside the fortress: "The people inside listen to me!" You are surrounded by us, and Brigadier Bazin wants you to lay down your arms and surrender immediately! Don't be stubborn in the corner...... Your superiors have abandoned you, and you will not receive any other aid! ”

The Russian persuasion to surrender did not have much effect, and more than 300 Russian soldiers, led by the commander of the fortress, slowly walked out of the fortress of the stars.

The commander standing at the gate of the Star Fortress looked at the French army at the foot of the mountain, in the trench and behind the breastwork, and said with a solemn look on his face: "Russia will never surrender!" ”

The Russian Imperial soldiers, who stood with the commander of the fortress, likewise shouted in unison: "Russia will never surrender!" ”

At this moment, the commander of the fortress was like Don Quixote challenging the windmill, he pulled out the command knife from his waist and raised the command knife and shouted: "For His Majesty the Tsar!" ”

Then they rushed to the location of the Zhuaf regiment, and the surrounding soldiers, hearing the shouts of the fortress commander, also picked up their guns and followed the fortress commander forward.

"Don't shoot!" Looking at this group of Russian warriors who were charging to the death against the Zhuaf regiment, Brigadier General Bazin, who was also standing on the front line, ordered his Zhuaf regiment not to shoot, and he was to bid farewell to this respectable opponent with a bayonet.

Although their army was far from being the match of the Zhuaf Regiment in terms of combat effectiveness, their courage and will made Brigadier General Bazin and the soldiers of the Zhuaf Regiment feel a spontaneous respect.

On the orders of Brigadier General Bazin, all the soldiers of the Zhuaf regiment removed their index fingers from the trigger.

Immediately afterwards, Brigadier General Bazin also drew his command knife from his waist and shouted: "For the French Empire!" ”

The surrounding Zhuaf regiment soldiers also charged the remaining Russian Imperial soldiers.

The two sides fought each other on a slope in front of the Star Fortress.

In the end, the experienced Zhuaf regiment was victorious, and more than 300 Russian Imperial soldiers all died at the hands of the Zhuaf regiment.

The last wave of casualties of the Zhuaf regiment was 121 (48 dead and 73 wounded), and a large part of the wounded Zhuaf soldiers were in the fighting, and they were moved by compassion for the Russian Imperial soldiers, and the first wave of attacks deliberately avoided the vital parts, which led to the fact that the Russian Empire was still capable of counterattacking, causing some unnecessary casualties.

The red light of the setting sun shone on the Star Fortress, making the dilapidated Star Fortress reveal an inexplicable sense of sadness.

Looking at these soldiers of the Russian Empire, who would rather die than surrender, Brigadier General Bazin couldn't help but sigh, and then ordered his adjutant to bury them all.

"Yes!" The adjutant hurriedly replied to Brigadier General Bazin, and then asked Brigadier Bazin if he wanted to erect a tombstone for them.

"If you want to stand, stand up!" Brigadier General Bazin replied, and then returned to the foot of the hill to report to General Conrobert.

General Conrobert, who had been watching the movement of the Star Fortress at the foot of the mountain, began to criticize Brigadier Bazin the next second that Brigadier Bazin came to him.

"Why do you have to fight them in close quarters when you can avoid unnecessary casualties!" Conrobel asked Brigadier General Bazin.

"I think it's a sign of respect for the defenders inside the fortress!" Brigadier General Bazin Conrobert said.

"Respect? We are a war, not a duel between knights! Conrobel emphasized, aloud.

"Even if it's a war, we should respect them and give them enough respect!" Brigadier General Bazin retorted.

After arguing with Bazin for a moment, the argument ended with General Conrobert's concession.

"You and your troops have worked hard!" Conrobert said to Brigadier General Bazin.

"That's what we're supposed to do!" Brigadier General Bazin replied to Conrobert.

Conrobert then ordered Brigadier General Bazin's Zhuaf regiment and the 1st Division to continue their approach to residential areas on the north bank of Sevastopol, where their 1st Division was to spend the night.

……

Twenty minutes after the battle for the fortress of the Stars ended, the report from the north bank of Sevastopol reached the French command.

At this time, the French Command had already gathered the commanders of the four countries of Britain, France, and Turkey.

As for why the commanders of the other three nations are here, it has to start after the Battle for Star Fortress begins.

As soon as the Star Fortress began, Conrobel used more than 100 large and small Napoleonic guns to bomb the Star Fortress.

The sound of Napoleonic cannons directly alarmed the commanders of the other three countries, so Britain, Satan, and Turkey sent them to check the situation.

After some reconnaissance, the Commander of the Three Kingdoms learned that the French army was attacking the fortress directly against the Stars behind their backs (Commander Raglan already vaguely knew why he was waging war).

In the face of such an unexpected situation, all they could do was to go to the French command to inquire about the situation.

After the explanation of the French Command, the commanders of the three countries understood why the French Command suddenly started the war.

Now that France has begun to launch an offensive against the Star Fortress, there is still nothing to say about the Anglo-Turkish-Saxon countries.

They could only wait quietly at the French command for the news of the capture of the Star Fortress.

When Jérôme. After Patterson reported the capture of the Star Fortress to the French Command, the Anglo-Turkish-Saxon kingdom was once again shocked by the strength of France.

It was only two and a half hours between the official attack of France (5 o'clock) and now (7:30 a.m.).

Commander Raglan, who was sitting at the French headquarters, suddenly felt a pressure.

Although Britain and France are now fighting the Russian Empire in the Crimea, there is no guarantee that their current allies will become enemies again in the future.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Britain and the French Empire were themselves a pair of enemies, but they were united by form.

Now, the combat effectiveness displayed by the French Empire has left Britain far behind, which cannot but make Commander Raglan vigilant in his heart.

Commander Raglan even began to wonder if it was a wise choice for the London government to form an alliance with the French Empire against the Russian Empire.

Judging from the strength displayed by the current Russian Empire, where they need to be guarded against, they are clearly the objects that Britain wants to woo.

The French are terrible!

At this time, Commander Raglan had secretly made up his mind that after the capture of the southern bank of Sevastopol, he must send a telegram to London, asking them to reform the existing military system of Britain as soon as possible.

From the time it set foot on the Crimean peninsula to the present, the British army has exposed many problems.

If it is not solved, Britain may really face the risk of being hanged.

In contrast to Commander Raglan's apprehension, the Commander of the Kingdom of Sardinia and Minister of War, Larg. Maramor and the Ottoman commander Omar Pasha were particularly happy.

The more combat-ready the French army was, the easier it was for them.

It is better to let the French army take out all the Russian Imperial troops alone, so that they don't have to do it!
