The chaos outside slowly ended, and the people who were standing slowly appeared. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After confirming that the attackers had indeed left, some people came out and began to clean up the chaotic camp, and those hiding in the woods began to return to the camp, and order began to re-establish in the camp.

The long dark night finally passed, and the sky was covered with fish belly, and slowly, a bright red sun rose.

Zhang Ang also returned to the camp with the people, and the current camp has long since reverted to its original appearance. Although the camp to the north is shabby and dirty, it is also very neat and popular. And now, it was full of scorched black and white ground, pieces of fences that had been knocked over and knocked down, and a corpse lying on the ground in a strange shape, and a cry of pain in my ears...... A post-apocalyptic sight.

Seeing the people of the German National Socialist Party come out, a silver-armored knight with bloodshot eyes stepped forward and yelled at the big fat man "Viscount Antony": "What do you know how to come out? Ah? What were you doing when the enemy came? You just watched your compatriots being killed? Now that it's dawn, you know that you're coming out?"

"Viscount Anthony" had no choice but to go up and say in a frightened, resigned, "Yes...... I'm sorry, I ...... I'm too scared, they're not people, they're devils, they're too ...... It's terrible, I can't beat it, I can only escape, I can only escape......"

The knight in silver armor raised his leather whip and paused in the air for a while, as if he wanted to pull it down, but he still didn't pull it down: "A bunch of cowards who can't get on the table! Get out of here! Go help bury the corpses! Go treat the wounded! Go rebuild the construction camp! Get out!"

So saying, he threw his horse away and went to another place.

Adolf also waved his hand and asked the members to go down and help.

"Alas, it seems that this time it is indeed a heavy loss, and it seems that it will not be possible to launch a river crossing operation in a short time. Looking at the devastated camp, Adolf was worried.

"Yes, this night attack on the French side was very well arranged, striking from the east to the west, diverting the tiger from the mountain, and using perfect fire, worthy of the elite cavalry of the French Revolutionary Army. Zhang Ang also sighed: "But they still didn't do their best, and in the end they still didn't break through the big tent of the Chinese army, otherwise we would not have to close the endgame now, but turn around and flee." ”

"Then what should we do? Now that the river crossing operation will not be launched for a while. Adolf looked a little confused.

"Don't worry, although this night attack was very successful, after all, our army has enough people, and their attack time is not too long, and the losses should not be very large, and it is not a bone-wrenching injury. Zhang Ang comforted: "And this time His Majesty William's will is very resolute, and the follow-up supplement should come soon." This must have been followed by more and more draconian orders, and the crossing of the river could not be delayed for long. ”

"That's right......" Adolf touched his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the German generals gathered again.

This place has not been attacked, it is still the same as before, but the generals have lost their original heroic strength, many of them have blood stains on their armor, some of them are covered with wounds and bandages, and everyone's expressions are very ugly.

"Tell me, how big is the loss?" asked Marshal Lista, with a blushing face.

"Report to my lord, the greatest losses were the garrison camps, they were unprepared to suffer a direct onslaught from the opponent's heavy cavalry, although the battle damage is still being counted, but it is expected to be no less than 8,000 people! Almost a quarter of the entire garrison force will be incapacitated!" a general with blood stains on his armor reported in detail: " The second is the aristocratic camp, due to their own low combat effectiveness, it is also quite damaged, the elite of the big nobles is better, can rely on the fence to resist the enemy, but those gray serfs have no ability to resist at all, it is estimated that at least nearly 10,000 people have been lost in battle! Then there is the city defense army, although they were the first to be attacked, but the other side is a light cavalry, the ability to attack the fortification is not strong, the actual losses caused are not large, except for the large number of camps that were burned, the actual death of no more than 1,000 people......

"What about the main army?" asked Marshal Lista.

"Although some of the elites of the main army went out to chase the enemy, they also left a large number of elite infantry, and after a bloody battle with the other party, they have been defending the Chinese army and have not joined the battle, so the damage is the least, and it is expected that it will not exceed 300 people. The general reported.

After taking a few deep breaths and suppressing the boiling anger in his heart, Marshal Lista then asked, "Then do you think we can still cross the river now?"

The atmosphere in the tent suddenly cooled down, and there was silence for a long time, before the commander of the Second Army, Field Marshal Fedor, said: "I think, at least for a short time, we will not be able to launch a river crossing operation. Although the damage to our overall strength was not too great in this night attack, it was a fatal blow to morale! I think our soldiers did not have enough courage to attack in a short period of time. ”

Field Marshal Walter, commander of the Third Army Corps, also said: "Yes, this time the losses of the cannon fodder serfs are still huge, and there are not enough of them, so they will not be useful." If the river is forcibly crossed, it will cost the lives of the elite of the empire, and even if the river can be successfully crossed, the loss will be too great. And after that, there is no force to follow the march to Vienna!"

Marshal Luger, the commander of the Fourth Imperial Legion, proposed: "I think it's better to ask for help, at least mobilize enough cannon fodder troops to come over." In the next few days, we must also let everyone recover and regain their confidence! Moreover, patrols and surveillance of the upstream and downstream must be strengthened! Prevent the other side from sneaking up again!"

"Marshal, rest assured!" a heavily armored general also reported: "We have destroyed all the pontoon bridges built by the other side when crossing the river at the Eagle's Beak Gorge and the Wandering Bend, and we have stationed two battalions of elite soldiers to guard there, and this tragedy will never happen again!"

"Just these two places?" Marshal Lista's brows furrowed: "Let me go quickly! Tightly defend all the upstream and downstream for a hundred miles! Not a single ant is allowed to be released!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll make arrangements!" replied the heavily armored general, and then rushed out of the tent.

"What do you say?" said Marshal Lista, sitting down on his throne, asked in a deep voice.

"I think we still need to strengthen the reconnaissance on the other side, we just looked down on the opponent too much this time, and only cared about how to cross the river, and didn't think that they might also kill them, which caused this defeat. We can't afford to make the same mistake again!, I suggest, not only to deploy defenses on the north bank, but also to send elite masters to smuggle to the south bank, hide and secretly investigate, and make sure that nothing goes wrong!" proposed Field Marshal Walter, commander of the Third Army.

"We can't be beaten either!We must find a way to counterattack! They can attack us, and we must find a way to attack them! We in Germany are not without cavalry!," also proposed Field Marshal Fedor, commander of the Second Army.

"I think that since the other party is France, they are now fighting in a foreign country, and the country must be very empty, and our northern frontier and France are bordering, so it is better to ask Your Majesty to let the Imperial Northern Army directly attack them in France! Let them not be able to take care of the end! The defense line on the bank of the river will naturally be solved!" Marshal Luger, the commander of the Fourth Army Corps, also offered a strategy.

......

With the speeches of the marshals, the decadent atmosphere in the military tent was eased a lot, and many low-level generals also began to speak one after another and offer advice.
