On the south bank of the Rhine, the barracks of the French Revolutionary Army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The barracks of the French Revolutionary Army are divided into two, the infantry barracks are at the bottom of the hillside, and the cavalry barracks are on the hillside.
On the steep, low slope of the hill was the camp of the French cavalry, and it was also a sea of men and horses.
There are French cavalrymen stationed here, all of whom are fighting against other countries.
There are many types of cavalry in France, and under the integration and optimization of His Majesty Napoleon for so many years, a number of cavalry teams with endless equipment and distinctive characteristics have been formed.
Hussars, chassars, that is light cavalry, mostly long-range harassment, combined strangulation.
Lancers, cuirassiers, that is heavy cavalry, mostly charged into battle, frontal assault.
And above these ordinary cavalry, there are the most powerful and precious dragoons, they are well-armed, heavily armoured, carrying guns and swords, and even the horses are covered with a layer of scale armor. They were the most elite cavalry, the most elite troops in France, and the personal guards of His Majesty the Emperor Napoleon!
On the low hillside, surrounded by dragoons, a large tent stood in it, where it was the straightforward camp of His Majesty Napoleon!
Now, in the Great Tent, all the French generals gathered in front of His Majesty Napoleon, for a pre-war meeting.
"Report to Your Majesty! I, the French Revolutionary Army, have been assembled! As long as we have a few days of rest, we can go into battle at any time!"
With the help of our army, Archduke Louisa has taken full control of Austria, and now she is integrating domestic forces, expanding military resources, and doing her best to provide our army with food and grass supplies!"
"Report to Your Majesty! The other party and the small groups of troops sent in the upper and lower reaches of the Rhine River in the early hours of yesterday morning to force the crossing, but they were all discovered by our cavalry troops, and a total of 455 people in the two places have been completely wiped out!"
"Report to Your Majesty! According to the intelligence of our intelligence personnel, the gathering of support troops on the opposite side has come to an end! According to analysis, the other side's river crossing operation should be within these three days! Our side has stepped up reconnaissance! No matter day or night, we will not let them have the possibility of a surprise attack!"
......
His Majesty Napoleon listened quietly with his eyes closed, his head propped up with one hand.
Finally, all the reports were over, and His Majesty the Emperor also opened his eyes: "That's all, what about the Martial Saint on the other side, or is there no relevant information?"
"Yes, yes, although our intelligence agents have completely penetrated the main army of the other side, they still have not found any clues! Not a single member of the Siegfried family, any general or soldier of the Northern Legion, or any teacher or student of the Green Academy, we have not found it! As if they had not come at all. The Minister of Intelligence replied respectfully.
"It's impossible that they didn't come! In such a big battle, without the Martial Saint-level suppression array, how could the lame emperor of their family rest assured?" His Majesty the Emperor thought for a while: "It seems that they have also received the news and hid all the Martial Saint-level powerhouses." ā
"I don't think the news given by the Holy See may be true, even if those evil demons are powerful, but in such a big battle of hundreds of thousands of people, how can they have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters? Aren't they afraid of the encirclement and suppression of the army? Moreover, the battlefield of the Martial Saint level is often above the sky, attracting everyone's attention, even if they are defeated and fall, there are countless pairs of eyes staring, where can they be taken away?" a middle-aged general wondered.
"This may not be! Although there is some shame, I still have to tell you that when England invaded, I was killed in the battle of three Divine Spear Warriors, and the body of one of them was taken by the Skeleton Cult!" His Majesty the Emperor said solemnly.
"How is this possible? Who is it? It is so likely to be taken away?" Hearing this surprised news, the middle-aged general couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's Alamis, his body was not found when the city of Paris was finally attacked! His Majesty the Emperor explained: "This is news from the Goddess Sect, so let's be small." And the other side is so careful, presumably this battle Martial Saint level should try to make as few shots as possible, and don't use it unless it is absolutely necessary! We rely on our own strength to win this war!"
"Your Majesty, our revolutionary army has been through a hundred battles and has no defeats! Even if the city of Marseille has survived such a difficult moment, are you still afraid of this dignified battle?" A big man with heavy armor hurriedly agreed: "And now that we occupy a favorable position, the preparations are also very sufficient, as long as they dare to cross the river, as many as they come, we will let them die as much as they want!"
"Eckmir, I said, never underestimate your opponent! The commanders of the other side are not stupid people, since they dare to cross the river, they must have a certain certainty, and it may be possible to bloom on multiple lines, the Rhine River is so long at that time, we may not be able to block it!" His Majesty the Emperor did not look so optimistic.
"Your Majesty has taught us a lesson! We must wait for the rest of our lives and do our best to intercept them! If the interception on the river is unfavorable, it will be nothing more than another fight on land. Although they are more numerous, our revolutionary army is well-trained and mostly cavalry, so it may not be impossible to repel them when the time comes!
"I think it is better to strengthen the patrol of the river, what if they abandon this section of the narrowest, smoothest section of the river, and instead go upstream to find another crossing point?" another general also suggested.
