Chapter 95: The Gelding vs. the Frog

"Reinforcements are coming!"

The Belgian soldiers shouted excitedly, and the French troops on the opposite side were stunned.

"Again!?"

"Hey, hey, hey! You're surrounded! French! ”

The Belgian soldiers, who were still very depressed in the morning, had gradually become arrogant at this time.

"Damn Belgian steers! The warriors of France will not surrender! ”

"Frogs! Don't back down, frog! Frog! ”

The Belgians and the French actually disdain each other, with the latter finding the former's accent strange like a castrated rooster.

Similarly, the former also felt that the latter ate everything and was as disgusting as a frog.

There is a classic Belgian joke that France is too perfect, so God created the French.

The Belgian heralds kept running to the rear of the line, shouting "Reinforcements are coming!" Reinforcements are here again! ”

This not only boosted the morale of the Belgian army, but also hit the morale of the French army.

Generally speaking, it is difficult for wars between countries to have a direct impact on the enemy in terms of language.

But the Belgians in Wallonia are heavily influenced by French culture, and almost all of them speak French.

As soon as Leopold I learned of the arrival of reinforcements, he sent all the men around him to the battlefield to spread the news of the arrival of reinforcements.

He probably didn't even think about what a blow this was to the morale of the French army.

Oudinot's tactics had caused great casualties to the French army itself, just imagine, the soldiers on the front line were exhausted after a morning of fighting, only to be told that the opponent's reinforcements had arrived.

wanted to retreat, but as a result, his own warlord team also arrived. The soldiers could only bite the bullet and fight with the Belgians.

However, it was another bloody battle, and the casualties on our side were getting bigger and bigger, and at this time the enemy's reinforcements arrived again.

Before the start of the war, the French soldiers heard that Marshal Oudinot was going to hand out canned food to everyone after the victory in the battle, so many people did not eat much or even breakfast.

Imagine what it's like to fight all morning in the muddy ground after the rain, hungry and the enemy fights more and more.

Finally, as the confidence of the first French soldier began to retreat, the entire front of the French army began to collapse completely.

The disadvantages of oppressive attacks, which have been said countless times before, are finally fully apparent at this time.

However, it has to be said that the French overseers are still very professional.

Even in the face of a torrent of rout, they resolutely raised their guns and prepared to drive the defeated army back.

"Go back! Get back! No refund! Take a step back and we'll shoot! ”

Without hesitation, the French Warlords turned their guns on their men.

However, these infantry in front of them did not have the discipline of the elite cavalry before, and the defeated soldiers did not want to care about those, whoever stood in front of them was the enemy.

"Mother, Xipi! It's not like we don't have guns! Who's afraid of whom! ”

Shots erupted, and without hesitation, both the warlords and the routs opened fire on each other.

However, how could a team of hundreds of overseers be able to stop the rout of tens of thousands of soldiers?

The battle ended almost instantly, and the routed soldiers who rushed to the ground directly crushed the well-armed Overseer.

Seeing the collapse of the main battlefield, everyone knew that the French could not win this battle. There were only two thousand reserves rushing to the rescue, and they naturally collapsed.

On the other side, the elite of the French army, which fought against the German coalition, which was mainly Luxembourgers, fell into an even greater disadvantage.

And no matter how elite they are, people are still people, and the complete collapse of the battlefield is not something that this lone army can save back.

Eventually, the elite of the French army collapsed, and the cavalry commander died at the hands of his most trusted men.

"General, I'm sorry. We don't want to die! ”

"Bang!"

The cavalry commander fell headlong from his horse, and countless soldiers and horses trampled over his corpse.

He was a soldier who was loyal to his duty, but he died with neither dignity nor value.

At this point, the Overseer officer who had stopped the cavalry from retreating had already fled with his men.

However, the cavalry that had escaped the mud pit still caught up with them easily, and the elite French cavalry vented their anger on the Overseers.

In fact, the reason why the cavalry attacked this warlord was not only to vent their anger, but also to eliminate the eyewitnesses.

After all, running away is a serious crime, and if they want to get away with it, they must kill the group of Overseers in front of them.

So a peculiar spectacle appeared, with the French Warlords running in front, the French cavalry chasing behind, and a group of panting German troops in the distance.

It took a great deal of effort for Vincent Morris to halt the Coalition's pursuit.

This was not a good time for Vincent Morris to pursue, and in fact it was unlikely that the two-legged infantry would be able to catch up with the fleeing cavalry.

What's more, it's a pity that the loot is all over the ground and not scraped, after all, this is the main income of the military at that time.

However, the main reason is still the fear of other changes, such as an ambush, at this time Vincent Morris's mission is to support Brussels, not to pursue the remnants of the enemy.

If the rash pursuit leads to the loss of the good game, the gain outweighs the loss.

Everyone likes to chase battles, but there are not many people as calm as Vincent Morris.

Whether it was the Belgians on the main battlefield or the new reinforcements, they were all chasing the remnants of the enemy as if they had been beaten at this time.

Charles Rozher and King Leopold I of Belgium sat on the ground, the battle had just been too dangerous, and they knew that they were about to be crushed by the French.

If the main battlefield in the center collapses, then the reinforcements can only choose to retreat or fight to the end.

However, most generals will choose to retreat safely, rather than fight desperately to the end.

"Your Majesty, we won. We finally held on to our homeland. ”

Charles Rozher laughed heartily, not only to Leopold I, but also to the soldiers.

"Yes! The price we paid was also significant. But this is only a temporary victory. The French have not yet left our land, and our battle is far from over. ”

Leopold I was also a good statesman, and his words were not just for Charles Rozher.

But in any case, the battle was won at this time, the soldiers were happy, and they were willing to listen to others.

At the same time, a large number of journalists are speeding through the process of documenting this, and they will spread the news around the world.

However, these journalists were not recruited by Leopold I or Charles Rozher, but they were intelligent people who quickly understood the role of these journalists and acted correctly.

The elite French cavalry showed no mercy in slashing and slaying the Overseers, driving them out no matter what the other side explained.

Naturally, it was impossible for the Warlords to hold off this cavalry force for too long.

But when the enraged cavalry rushed back to the barracks to tear the Major Compaoré to pieces, they found that the barracks were already empty, and Compaoré was nowhere to be found.
