Napoleon II Reborn

The French infantry who were ready looked at the approaching Austrian army, and their guns couldn't help tightening. A row of soldiers in front of the entire French army lay on the ground, while the second row squatted on the ground, and the third row stood and raised their guns. The whole is a standard three-stage design formation. After the soldiers in front suffer casualties, the soldiers behind will automatically make up to ensure the continuity of shooting and form the greatest lethality.

In fact, this shooting formation is very wasteful for the First Army, which uses the new rifle. Because only the front three rows of soldiers can shoot, and the soldiers behind can only wait, which wastes a lot of manpower. Moreover, the shooting speed of the new rifle is more than ten times that of the old rifle, and in comparison, this will not affect the continuity of shooting at all. Therefore, Xiao Jie believes that facing such a dense Austrian army, the current First Army can completely use the encirclement tactics of extending the two wings and relying on advanced weapons to attack them all at once. But the stiff-minded senior officers of the French army, although they used new weapons, still used the old tactics. Even if they won, they would cause a lot of unnecessary damage to themselves. From Xiao Jie's point of view, these things were completely avoidable in the first place, but since he has no say in the army at all, he is powerless to change this situation.

Slowly, the first half of the Austrian army passed through the barrage of the French artillery and entered the minimum range of the artillery, and the artillery could no longer threaten them. But the people in the second half of them still have to suffer from the ravages of artillery. Up to now, at least four thousand Austrian troops have died under the artillery of the French army. If they completely enter the minimum range of the artillery, they will have to pay at least two thousand people. It's really not a small loss. Keenmeier, who was watching the battle on the walls of Nuremberg, had a livid face. Seeing countless Austrian soldiers being blown to the sky, his heart was bleeding all the time.

But then something unexpected happened to him. When the Austrian army was 400 meters away from the French army, gunshots rang out from the French army's position. Seeing this situation, Keen Maier thought to himself: Is it still the most elite army in France? Did they think that the sound of gunshots could scare off our great Austrian army when they fired outside the range? They must have been petrified by our heroic troops. Such an army would definitely not be his opponent. He seemed to have seen victory beckoning to him. But the next moment, he was immediately stunned by the sight in front of him. Because he saw that after the gunshots, the Austrian soldiers fell down in rows with the gunshots.

"How is this possible?" Keen Maier murmured. He thought of the information he got a long time ago, that is, the French army was equipped with a new type of rifle, which greatly improved the rate of fire and range. He didn't believe it then, but now he couldn't help it.

The soldiers in the front rows of the French army were already numb, and they had been doing a monotonous repetitive movement. Raise the gun, shoot, pull the bolt, raise the gun again, shoot again, pull the bolt again. Until all the bullets in the magazine are shot out, the soldiers behind will fill their positions. Only then did the Austrians have a chance to advance. In just a few minutes, thousands of Austrian soldiers died on the way forward. Watching the French army continue to shoot deadly bullets, but I couldn't reach the opponent at all. The hearts of many Austrian soldiers sank, and they doubted whether they could still win. So he refused to move forward, which disrupted the formation of the entire Austrian army. The French army took advantage of this rare opportunity to shoot and kill Austrian soldiers in large numbers.

Seeing his soldiers being shot and killed, Keenmeier was about to explode. He knew that the Austrian army had completely lost the chance to shoot at them when the French army had mastered this new type of rifle. So he frantically ordered: "The whole army charges. Those who disobey the order will be killed." After the war supervisor beheaded several soldiers who refused to advance, the Austrian army summoned up their courage and began to charge. Then Keenmeier sent his only 3,000 cavalry to attack the junction of the center and right wing of the French army, trying to make a hole in the right wing of the French army. But before his cavalry rushed to the front of the French army, they were first attacked by French artillery, and then shot and killed by French soldiers. When they reached the front of the French army, only half of them were left. At this time, nearly a thousand cavalry on the right wing of the French army had already rushed over. Cavalry against cavalry, holding their sabers high, the two sides began the most primitive and violent collision. People were constantly chopped down under the horses, and then trampled into meat by the fast-running army horses.

The French infantry also joined the attack on the Austrian cavalry. They fired cold shots at the Austrian cavalry from a distance, and the Austrian cavalry was constantly shot to death. Slowly, the Austrian soldiers were surrounded. They were like reefs surrounded by floods, and they all disappeared under the fierce attack of the floods.

Facing the rapidly rushing Austrian infantry, Bernadotte ordered that the soldiers in the front row continue to shoot, and the soldiers in the back row all put on bayonets, preparing to fight the enemy hand-to-hand. When the Austrian army was only a hundred meters away from the French army, all the soldiers in the front row retreated, and the soldiers in the back row with shining bayonets stood at the forefront.

In order to fight the French army hand-to-hand, the Austrian army once again paid the price of thousands of people on this 400-meter journey. From the start of the war to the failed formal contact between the two sides, they have lost more than 10,000 people. Only half of the more than 26,000 people who attacked were left.

Soldiers from the French and Austrian armies collided fiercely~ www.NovelMTL.com~ and stabbed each other's bodies with bayonets. This tragic battle gave Xiao Jie a strong shock. Live lives disappeared in front of his eyes, how fragile human life seemed in this environment.

Since the French army has the superiority in numbers, each Austrian soldier has to face at least two French soldiers, and some of them belong to the one waiting for work, so in hand-to-hand combat, the French army easily gained the upper hand . Often the Austrian soldiers tried their best to kill a French soldier, but then he was killed by a bayonet stabbed from nowhere. More Austrian soldiers were killed without even having a chance to pull a back. After solving the Austrian cavalry, the French cavalry also came to help and surrounded the Austrian army. More and more Austrian troops were desperate. In order to survive, they threw away their weapons, raised their hands, and surrendered to the French army. It's better. In the end, except for a small number of diehards, all the surrounded Austrian soldiers surrendered. And those diehards were all wiped out with the cooperation of the cavalry.

When the Austrian army was surrounded, Keenmeier already knew that he could not win, so he led his reserve army to abandon Nuremberg and break out from the northeast. Because he was busy destroying the defending Austrian army, and he didn't expect Keen Maier to break through from that direction, so he had to run away. Although the cavalry was finally sent in pursuit, only some of the fallen Austrian soldiers were captured. But Kean Maibai made a big circle and fled to Munich with less than 6,000 remnants of the army.
