King's Landing in France

After the first wave of sequential shooting, the random shooting began.

With a livid face, Pu Jun marched forward on the beat of the drums, completely ignoring the teammates who kept falling.

The leading Prussian officer held his head high like a proud rooster.

The French army had already aimed at him, and the bullets kept hitting the soldiers around him.

Even the flag bearer who was following him fell down, but the officer grabbed the flag that was about to fall with quick eyes and hands, and carried the flag forward.

Seeing the officer's actions, Napoleon also turned his head and snatched the flag from the flag bearer's hand—he rushed down carrying the flag just now, and returned it to the flag bearer when he was in place.

Napoleon jumped out from behind the bunker carrying the flag, and stood between two barricades with the flag, facing the Prussian officer who was also carrying the flag.

Of course, the Prussian officer also saw Napoleon, and walked even more energetically.

Moreover, he is much taller than Napoleon, so raising the flag is naturally more imposing.

Noticing the "confrontation" between the commanders on both sides, the French soldiers began to stagger their shooting targets intentionally or unintentionally, and did not shoot the officer again.

As the distance gets closer, the shooting efficiency of the French army is increasing exponentially, and the Prussian army array continues to reduce its personnel.

Moreover, most of the French soldiers shot consciously aimed non-commissioned officers and officers. At this time, the number of officers and non-commissioned officers in the Prussian army was already very serious.

Because the officers in the front were hit, the officers in the back would make up for them. As a result, there were gradually no officers in the back row of the Prussian army.

Finally, the Prussian army in the back row began to turn around and flee, and the formation of the Prussian army slowly disintegrated as if they had been hit by a large disintegration technique.

In the end, the Prussian army ran down to the front row.

As a result, the non-commissioned officers in the front row finally all fell down, and the remaining soldiers scattered like birds and beasts.

The officer carrying the flag didn't change his face, and walked towards the French line with standard military steps.

Napoleon: "Stop shooting!"

The continuous gunfire stopped, but the cannonade continued.

A cannonball landed on Napoleon's left hand side, and the projectile jumped to record, and finally flew to the bridge behind Napoleon, smashed the railing of the wooden bridge and fell into the blue Danube.

Napoleon returned the flag in his hand to the standard bearer, drew his sword, and advanced towards the officer, finally resting the tip of the sword on the throat of the Prussian officer.

"Your bravery has earned our respect. You can return to where you started."

Napoleon spoke in French.

This Prussian officer is a colonel, and according to the Prussian military system, he must be a nobleman.

European aristocrats can speak French, even the Prussian Junkers with relatively poor families.

The Prussian held back for a few seconds and replied: "I'm sorry that I can't compete with you at the same level."

Napoleon said modestly: "No, you are already doing well, and we may not be able to withstand such a rush."

In fact, the current French army can really resist, because each French soldier has the will to fight, and it is not forced out by the officer corps.

But at this time, a word of humility seems to be graceful.

The Prussian replied: "I am already your prisoner. I will not participate in the subsequent battles, I promise."

After speaking, he turned around and carried the Prussian military flag and walked towards his starting position.

Napoleon retracted his long sword and sighed: "With such an officer corps, Prussia will be a terrible opponent in the future."

At this time, his chief of staff came up: "General, why don't you ask what his name is? Isn't it a basic etiquette to exchange numbers first?"

Napoleon: "Oh, I forgot. Hey, Prussian, what's your name?"

Although Napoleon called the Prussian "Hi" very impolitely, the other party turned around, planted the flag on the ground, and saluted a standard military salute: "My name is August Neihardt von Gernay. Senau, Monsieur Bonaparte!"

Although people have already called out "His Excellency Bonaparte", Napoleon still politely replied: "My name is Napoleon Bonaparte, and my name will eventually resound throughout Europe, just like my teacher!"

"May your wish come true!" Gneisenau put down his saluting hand, pulled up the flag and turned away.

Napoleon still wanted to reply a few words, and his subordinates shouted: "General, reinforcements have arrived! It is the first brigade!"

Napoleon turned his head and saw a group of French troops over the hill.

The sound of Roman hymns floated from the side of the French army.

Napoleon was overjoyed: "The most dangerous time has passed, and another victory is coming! There is no need to worry about defending the bridge. The next thing we should consider is how to drive the enemy from Ulm to the outside of the city, and then annihilate them !"

※※※

Alvinzi looked at the arriving French troops and sighed: "It is impossible to take back the wooden bridge. Order the troops to rely on the barricades in the city to defend! We haven't lost yet, we still have the city and the barricades!"

Chapter 351 Like a Tiger Treats a Cat

On March 3, Anning arrived in Ulm, which was still in contention.

Napoleon was already waiting for him.

In the first sentence, An Ning said: "I didn't expect that you didn't take down this city after fighting for two days."

Napoleon immediately showed his clothes and ate Xiang's expression: "You don't know how disgusting they are. This city has three steps and one barricade, and the roads are full of traffic jams. Every step you take will cost a lot of casualties!"

An Ning: "Barricades?"

"Yes, the barricades, even the Austrian army, which we have bloodyed many times, has become brave behind the barricades. Although we can quickly defeat them as long as we rush up and fight them hand-to-hand, but a barricade Behind is another barricade..."

An Ning waved her hand: "Take me to the frontier."

"Okay, this way." Napoleon made a gesture of invitation.

A moment later, Napoleon personally brought An Ning to the forefront of the battle between the French army and the Prussian-Austrian allied forces. They climbed up a barricade that had been captured, and then pointed to the Austrian barricade at the intersection ahead and said: "Look! Barricades one after another , endlessly."

An Ning took out the binoculars, observed the enemy's barricade for a while, then turned to look at the nearby buildings: "What about this building, did the enemy enter the building for defense?"

"In the beginning, they entered some buildings, but when we adopted the tactic of burning the buildings and the people inside into charcoal, they didn't enter the general buildings very much, and just stayed in the solid masonry buildings. The city is now an impenetrable fortress, and I have filled in thousands of casualties."

An Ning put away the binoculars, turned to Napoleon and said, "I really didn't expect that you would be limited by the thinking of the past."

Napoleon frowned: "What do you mean?"

An Ning shook her head.

As an "experienced person", An Ning is of course very familiar with the ground meat of a modern city like Stalingrad, so he understands that the army in the Stalingrad era is fundamentally different from the current army.

In the era of Stalingrad, the army could be disbanded into small units with only a few people and still maintain the will to fight and the ability to act.

This is simply unimaginable for the current army.

Even the current French army cannot maintain its will to fight and perform tactical tasks after becoming a small force with only a few people.

For the Prussian-Austrian Allied Forces, as long as the number of people is less than 30, or the proportion of non-commissioned officers among the 30 people is low to a certain extent, the army will collapse.

Therefore, the so-called entry of the Prussian-Austrian Allied Forces into the house is not a small team of several people entering a house to defend it in modern warfare, but entering a company or even a battalion at a time.

In this era, it is normal for hundreds of people to guard a solid building, and there must be a considerable number of non-commissioned officers and officers among these hundreds of people. Otherwise, the most basic fighting will and morale cannot be maintained.

That's why things like "barricades" are so effective in this day and age.

Because the army has to maintain its size and formation, it can only walk on the streets, and they are relatively wide streets.

The real street fighting can only be done by elite soldiers such as skirmishers, jumpers, and hunters, and even for this kind of arms, the proportion of officers cannot be lower than a certain number.

After omitting the future part of the above content, An Ning briefly explained it to Napoleon, and then asked Napoleon: "What is the biggest difference between our army and the old army?"

Napoleon, as a good student of An Ning, immediately replied: "Our grassroots soldiers are citizen soldiers, understand why they are fighting, have the desire to fight, and can maintain morale and fighting will even in skirmish formation."

An Ning nodded: "Yes, so we have to make use of this advantage. That sergeant over there!"

The sergeant who was pointed by An Ning immediately stood at attention: "I am Sergeant Jean Boer, Your Excellency Commander!"

"You take your platoon, enter the side alley, go through the window and pass through the building, I want you to climb up the wooden building next to the enemy's barricade!"

The sergeant turned his head and glanced at the house An Ning was pointing at, then turned his head and said to the soldiers under him: "You all heard what your Excellency the Commander said! Come with me!"

Then a platoon stood up and, led by a sergeant and two corporals, got into the alley next to the avenue.

The sound of broken glass came from the alleyway, it should be that the troops were overturning the windows.

An Ning continued to order: "And you, Sergeant! What's your name?"

The staff sergeant who was ordered said loudly: "My name is Pierre, sir!"

"Take your platoon, enter this alley, and climb through the window—or climb over the wall, whatever you want. In short, make a detour to enter that house!"

An Ning ordered a new house: "When you arrive, shoot at the barricades from top to bottom!"

An Ning gave orders one after another, and one after another, led by the non-commissioned officer, they scattered into the alleyway.

After giving the order, An Ning turned to Napoleon and said, "Look, the barricade will be taken down by us very smoothly! This is called a dimensionality reduction strike!"

Napoleon: "Dimensionality reduction?"

Good guy, An Ning's translation system didn't translate this word directly, maybe this era really can't find a suitable word.

It is estimated that if An Ning wants to talk about scientific terms such as photons and protons, this will also happen, so he must pay attention to it in the future.

An Ning changed her words: "It's like a tiger fighting a cat! It's so easy!"

※※※

Let Sergeant Boer lead the troops, and after passing through several buildings, they entered the building pointed by An Ning.

The locals on the first floor of the building were too scared to speak, and the family huddled in a corner.

Sarge: "Don't be afraid ma'am, we're here to liberate you."

A corporal below said poorly: "Sergeant, they don't understand. This is the territory of Hesse. Only nobles can understand French, and ordinary people speak German."

The sergeant yelled, "You want to tell me? Go to the second floor! Quick!"

The quick-moving soldier had already gone up to the second floor, and shouted back at the window: "Sergeant, look, it's all Austrian heads!"

The sergeant rushed up to the second floor in three steps. He looked up and saw that the Austrian barricade was right below. The Austrians were looking up when they heard someone speaking French above them.

The officers of the Austrian army were all stunned. They had never seen such a situation, and they didn't know what password to give.

The sergeant was overjoyed, raised his gun and stretched it out, and randomly found an officer with an aristocratic badge on his chest to pull the trigger, but because the ball of paper blocking the bullet and gunpowder inside the gun was not plugged properly, the bullet came out of the gun before firing. He slipped out and sprinkled even the gunpowder on the face of the Austrian army who was looking up below.

The soldier next to him was amused: "Sergeant, you don't need to use a blower to press the gun tightly! Hahaha, don't you dare to train us in the future?"

The sergeant gave the butt of the gun to the big soldier, and cursed: "Idiot! Shoot down here! Quick, shoot!"

The soldiers woke up like a dream, and they all pointed their heads down and fired, and retracted after finishing a round to reload the bullets.

At first the sergeant was urging them to reload, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration.

"Wait a minute!" After speaking, he picked up a bench on the ground and threw it out of the window.

The bench immediately smashed the head of the unlucky guy below.

"This one is faster! Take things and throw them!"

Chapter 352 Doom of the Empire

An Ning was satisfied to see the French army appearing on the houses near the barricade, and began to attack the Austrian army from above.

The Austrians could not bear this attack, and quickly withdrew from the barricades.

An Ning turned to Napoleon and said, "See? This is our advantage now! Don't limit yourself to advancing along the main road, but make use of the complex laneways of the city."

A year ago, when the French army lacked training, they basically fought in the form of skirmishers. Everywhere they went, they were in skirmish formation. There was no need for drums and military music, and the number of officers was not enough.

In that case, the French army was able to advance and retreat in a certain way, and beat the Prussian-Austrian coalition forces to the ground.

Although the French army still lacks middle and senior officers at the school officer level, the non-commissioned officers below have been greatly enriched by being promoted from the front line of the war.

The French army led by non-commissioned officers can be scattered in the city like the later army, walking through the streets and windows, bypassing the fortified barricades, and attacking the enemy from above and behind.

This is how the army of the next generation crushes the army of this generation.

The Prussian-Austrian Allied Forces were unable to carry out this kind of combat. They could not get out after entering the alley, and most of the soldiers would run away.

After all, these soldiers are just flocks driven by the nobles, and they have no intention of fighting for their own nation.

After An Ning returned the command to Napoleon, Napoleon said excitedly: "I understand, our soldiers are wolves, while the enemy only officers and non-commissioned officers are shepherd dogs, and soldiers are sheep! Wolves can perform what sheep can't. tactics!"

An Ning said with a straight face: "Your analogy is very good. I will wait for your good news. How many days will it take you to take Ulm?"

"One day is enough!"

Napoleon patted his chest for assurance.
