Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Due to the battle in the morning, the morale of the Holy Roman Empire was reduced to the extreme, and it could not be recovered for a while.

    So, the two sides remained in a stalemate on the high ground for a whole day.

    The Holy Roman Empire never launched an attack again, and the American Volunteer Army made no move to take the initiative to attack.

    A strange confrontation unfolded here in the highlands.

    The fear of bottle bombs left an indelible mark on the hearts of those regiment soldiers who launched the charge in the morning.

    If they are allowed to continue to attack, these soldiers will think of that terrible scene again.

    Facing the frightened soldiers, the sergeants could not think of a good way to relieve their frustration.

    Therefore, we can only let these soldiers stay quietly.

    Although those soldiers in the rear who did not launch the attack had not personally experienced the horror, they were still frightened when they saw what happened to the soldiers in the rear.

    It can be said that among the legionnaires of the Holy Roman Empire, the idea of ????not wanting to continue fighting with the American volunteers has begun to arise.

    It¡¯s just that this idea is hidden in the hearts of the soldiers at the bottom, and no one speaks it out under the suppression of military discipline.

    In the end, the confrontation between the two sides reached ten minutes in the evening, and the Holy Roman Empire withdrew its camp.

    And the American volunteers also began to set up camp.

    One day passed like this.

    Savarodi was secretly resentful, and he planned to wait until the soldiers recovered a little the next day before launching an attack.

    Furthermore, he was also waiting for the fifteen artillery pieces to be delivered from the rear.

    In his view, as long as there is artillery, there will be a gap between the disadvantages of himself and the opponent.

    After two days of observation, he didn't seem to find any artillery in the enemy's ranks.

    Because in these two days of fighting, the enemy has not used artillery, which is very strange.

    If the opponent has artillery, they will definitely use it.  It's simply impossible to hide it and not use it.

    Therefore, there is only one reason that can be explained, and that is that the enemy has no artillery at all.

    This speculation made Savarodi a little excited.

    Yes, if you deflect correctly, then the fact that the enemy has no artillery is great news.

    Although the enemy does not have artillery, he himself has it.

    The range of artillery is much longer than that of muskets, and it is very scary when fired.

    Although the accuracy of artillery in this era is not that good, artillery can destroy the enemy's morale and deter the enemy's courage.

    Yes, the artillery of this era.  This is what it is used for in the military.

    Although it is ridiculous to say it, it is true.

    Besides, the destructive power caused by artillery shells falling into the team is truly astonishing.

    Those scenes of broken limbs and bloody flesh would make anyone with a weak willpower collapse to the ground in fear.

    Artillery!  artillery!

    Why haven¡¯t the artillery arrived yet?

    Thinking of the artillery, Savarodi couldn't help but frowned, and at the same time silently counted the time in his heart.

    It stands to reason.  The artillery is very heavy so it cannot be as fast as the main force.

    But Savarodi remembered that the artillery transport team was almost here at his urging, right?

    But why hasn¡¯t it arrived yet?

    Because according to Savarodi¡¯s own calculations, the artillery transport team should be here this morning.  Fifteen artillery pieces were transported to the camp.

    In fact, how did he know that the fifteen artillery pieces had been destroyed by the assault team of the American Volunteer Army a few miles away in the middle of the night yesterday.

    The army of the Holy Roman Empire only had sentries, and there were no rangers scattered a few miles outside.

    so.  Savarodi didn't get the news.

    ¡°If the Holy Roman Empire, like the American Volunteer Army, had a team responsible for investigating the situation within a few miles, then Savarodi would know.  His artillery had all been destroyed.

    The genetic man was too ruthless, leaving no one alive in the transport team.

    "Otherwise, at least a member of the transport team who escaped with his life would report this matter to him.

    In the sudden attack at night, none of the Genes used muskets, they all used cold weapons.

    When the ghost-like Gurkha warriors sneaked up to the side of the transport team??These people haven't reacted yet.

    Dividing line

    While Savarodi was sighing and waiting for the artillery that would never come, in the camp of the American Volunteer Army, Commander Naba and Deputy Commander Juan were distributing their respective orders to a group of genetic officers.  .

    "Two thirty in the morning is when the enemy is most tired. We will launch a night attack during this time."

    Outside the tent, smoke slowly rose from all over the camp, and the genetic warriors were quietly enjoying a delicious and sumptuous dinner.

    D'Artagnan was dumbfounded by this meal of beef stew with potatoes, green beans boiled in salt water, and a large bowl of rice.

    Yes, this kind of food is simply too luxurious in his opinion.

    Americans have a lot of money.

    No one paid attention to d'Artagnan's shock and emotion.

    When setting up camp, Nabal and Juan had already reached an agreement and decided to launch a night attack on the Holy Roman Empire at night.

    The reason why he had such an idea was because Nabal obtained information about the reconnaissance cavalry.

    Intelligence showed that the Holy Roman Empire only set up sentries outside the camp to guard the camp, and did not notice the surrounding situation at all.

    In other words, the Holy Roman Empire, which did not understand the surrounding situation, was equivalent to giving the American volunteers an opportunity to move their troops very close at night when visibility was not very high.

    How could Nabal not seize such an opportunity?

    If it succeeds, the Holy Roman Empire's regiments will be defeated by themselves from the 'Tangde' area, and they will even be beaten back to the territory of the Holy Roman Empire.

    By then, the war will begin within the Holy Roman Empire.

    And after eliminating the effective strength of this corps, the military strength of both sides will also change.

    Perhaps, the two sides will not take the initiative to attack, but it is not necessarily a long-term confrontation with themselves.

    In fact, Nabal does not want to fight the Holy Roman Empire, because the best option for him is confrontation.

    after all.  When these people came to Europe, Zhang Tie reminded them.

    For the time being, there are no imperial interests in Europe, so they don¡¯t have to work too hard.

    After all, it was France and the Portuguese rebels who benefited in Europe.

    The center of gravity of the empire is now the American continent. The empire will take all North America, South America and Central America into its hands and then develop it.

    So, I don¡¯t have that much experience to care about Europeans¡¯ affairs.

    If it were not necessary for France to go to war with Spain, Spain would not be able to mobilize reinforcements and pay attention to the Americas.  I don't think Zhao Hongyu will go to Europe yet.

    It was precisely because he thought of Zhang Tie¡¯s reminder that Naba felt that he should eliminate some of the Holy Roman Empire¡¯s armies to give the other side a taste of its power.

    By then, they will be so awesome.

    Now that the other party is constantly attacking me, isn't it because the other party relies on its large number of people and doesn't take itself seriously.

    Therefore, if you want to confront the opponent at the border, you have to hurt the enemy.

    You must let the other party know.  People like myself are not soft persimmons.

    Even if the number of people is much smaller than them, you can't attack just because you want to.

    No matter you want to go to war with the American Volunteer Army, you have to pay a price.

    The number of scout cavalry has been tripled.  Begin additional reconnaissance around the Holy Roman Empire.

    They must ensure that the intelligence is accurate and at the same time eliminate some minor characters.

    Create favorable conditions for large forces to launch night attacks in the early morning.

    D'Artagnan doesn't know much about this, he can't understand Chinese.

    so.  Nabal and the others didn't mind discussing the evening's military operations in front of d'Artagnan.

    D'Artagnan had nothing to do, he took his men with him.  Wander around the camp of the American Volunteers.

    The court painter behind him, dressed as a musketeer, kept painting the scenes he saw one by one.

    Preparing for the future, when France also forms a musketry unit, it can have a model for reference.

    ? American soldiers are neat, obey orders, and have very good military discipline.

    You can see this when they eat.

    When the French troops were eating, they all huddled together in a noisy manner, as if they were feeding pigs.

    But the American WarEveryone will line up in a long line in a very orderly manner, and go to get food one by one.

    The entire team was in order, no one jumped in line, and no one made any noise, which was completely different from the French army.

    After receiving their own food, the soldiers would sit in a circle and start eating.

    While eating, although they will chat, their voices will not be too loud to disturb others.

    D'Artagnan saw military discipline and rules from the base of the American Volunteer Army.

    Everything made him so convinced.

    No wonder they were able to defeat the vast Holy Roman Empire with such a small number of warriors.

    It seems not unreasonable.

    D'Artagnan saw that the soldiers were eating deliciously, and he also came to take an interest in receiving a large wooden bowl and wooden spoon, and stood at the back of the queue waiting to receive dinner.

    Since the team was very orderly, it was d'Artagnan's turn soon.

    Huo Toujun first put a large spoonful of rice into a bowl, then a spoonful of potato stewed beef and a spoonful of salted green beans.

    After receiving the food, d'Artagnan walked back to his people.

    Well!  tasty!

    The fragrant beef stew with potatoes is stewed slowly with various spices.

    And the salted green beans are also very fresh.

    This is completely different from the French army who often eat rotten food.

    "And the French team won't be able to stew potatoes and beef with spices, because that would be too extravagant.

    ¡°Besides, the French don¡¯t have potatoes either.

    D¡¯Artagnan enjoyed the beef stew with potatoes and green beans in salted water.

    To be honest, this ordinary dinner in the military camp is almost as good as what a small noble would eat.

    d'Artagnan thought to himself.
