    "It sounds like the Chinese are like magic soldiers descending from heaven, but in fact, their route is not that complicated. The more than 10,000 troops did not come to Shanyang at one time, but were divided into two batches.  The "mixed troops" of 5,000 "Xuan Army" and "Gui Army" detected by our reconnaissance cavalry; the second batch, the 5,000 to 6,000 "Xuan Army" and hundreds of cannons from Langshan to reinforce Taiyuan  " "After our reconnaissance cavalry detected the first batch of Chinese 'mixed troops', because their number was twice as much as the previous intelligence, it was natural to regard these five thousand people as Taiyuan.  The entire force of Xuan Guang's troops in Xi'an was completely unexpected, but there was still a huge tail hanging behind these five thousand people, so we did not conduct further and risky reconnaissance behind enemy lines." "And even if we did.  "After the first batch of Chinese 'mixed troops' arrived in Shanyang, the second batch of five or six thousand 'Xuan troops' came from Langshan to reinforce Taiyuan.  Hundreds of cannons have just set off from Taiyuan; and it will take about three days to march from Taiyuan to Shanyang at a normal speed. " "In other words, even if our reconnaissance cavalry takes the risk to conduct reconnaissance behind enemy lines, what they see will be reported.  Most likely it was 'the road was very quiet from Taiyuan to Shanyang', etc. "Of course it was 'quiet'! At that time, the second batch of Chinese troops had not yet set off!"  After the mixed troops arrived in Shanyang, they delayed and were laughed at. In fact, it was us who deserved to be laughed at! " "Of course the Chinese were delayed!  What a damn coincidence that our preset battlefield is also the Chinese¡¯s preset battlefield! Both France and China have chosen this unlucky place in Shanyang! Secondly, they are waiting for their follow-up troops.  Where are their own cannons? " "The day before the Battle of Shanyang, the Chinese suddenly greatly extended their defense line and blocked the entire open space on the east bank of the Wusen River. This move was also greatly laughed at by us.  In fact, we are the ones who deserve to be laughed at! "Looking back, the Chinese intention to significantly lengthen the defense line is actually very obvious." "The second batch of troops, including artillery, arrived on the same day.  Shanyang, at night, under the cover of night, they entered the position one by one, which is the second line of defense; the Chinese greatly lengthened the first line of defense, which was actually covering the second line of defense. If there was anything to block,  'It's just to 'block' our line of sight and the reconnaissance cavalry that may go behind the first line of defense!" "Of course the greatly extended line of defense has become very thin, but so what?  There is no chance of attacking this "thin" defense line! They have cannons with a range far beyond ours! They can't hit them! The number of cannons is much greater than ours!  Covering the entire open area on the east bank of the Wusen River! " "This is one of the reasons why the Chinese did not come out from behind the defense line to pursue the Zuaf camp. The defense line is too long and too thin. If unplanned operations are carried out before the general offensive is launched, it will be easy to commit suicide.  The situation is chaotic, so just drive away the French who 'surprised' them!  " "Looking back now, we are a bunch of out-and-out fools!  The entire battle of Shanyang, from beginning to end, was manipulated by the Chinese!  Not aware of anything!  "    "well!  " "We ran roughly along the original road, that is, along the southern foot of Sanchi Mountain towards the river bank; the road was still as difficult as when we came here, but because there was no longer the worry of exposing our tracks, the road conditions were more familiar, and because, uh, I mean  It sounds worse, it was a 'surprise attack' when it came, but it was a run for its life when it left!  Therefore, the same long journey took a full hour to come and only took forty minutes to go.  " "Of course I'm running for my life!  We all know that since they failed to destroy the Chinese artillery and the cavalry charge failed, then, the Chinese will launch a massive counterattack next, and blocking their attack is an impossible task. People have artillery!  And our cannons have all turned into scrap metal!  " "So, we must get to the river bank and cross the river before the Chinese do!  " "Oh, at that time, we were running wildly in the dense forest and could not confirm that 'the cavalry charge also failed.' However, isn't this failure inevitable?  Colonel Jeremiah suggested a cavalry charge. The purpose was just to cover our Zuaf Camp's "surprise attack". There was no hope that the cavalry could break through the Chinese defense line!  " "Not long after our return journey began, maybe ten minutes at most, all the Chinese cannons started roaring together.  " "Uh well, at that time, I was not sure whether the Chinese had used 'all their cannons' in the new round of bombardment. However, listening to that shockingIt must be the momentum of the land!  " "But there is one layer where I can hear the explosions of shells hitting the ground coming from the direction of the river bank.  " "That means the Chinese have begun shelling our main infantry troops on a large scale!  " "Their major counterattack has begun!  " "We ran for our lives!  " "Finally, we got out of the dense forest and came to the river bank.  " "But" "God!  What a thrilling scene appears before us!  " "There were corpses lying on the river bank, and gunpowder smoke filled the river. In the meantime, thousands of soldiers were struggling forward in the river. Countless water columns rose into the sky, throwing severed limbs into the air. The entire Wusen River turned red.  !  " "At first, I thought it was congestion under my eyes, so I rubbed my eyelids vigorously and looked again." "It's not an exaggeration at all!  The entire Wusen River was stained red with blood!  "    "Oh, God!  " "At the bend of the river, corpses are piled up, layer upon layer, like a floating cemetery.  " "On the shore, many soldiers were entering the water. They were too crowded and were scrambling to be the first. Some of those in front had just entered the water. Before they had time to move forward, they were squeezed into the water by those behind. Some people could no longer float.  Come up.  " "That situation was likethe dam collapsed.  " "I am both sad and angry!  This kind of situation should not happen to a well-trained army!  Why would civilians run for their lives in such a panic!  So disorderly!  " "These soldiers should all be part of the rear guard. Originally, their responsibility was to cover the main force crossing the river before the rear guard could cross the river. Now, not only have they given up on their responsibilities, but they have also committed suicide.  Trampling really brings shame to the great French Imperial Army!  " "They alas!  In fact, it should be said: "We" "We completely collapsed!"  ¡± *
