Make France Great Again

March 6th, four o'clock in the morning.

The Balkan Peninsula under the starry sky shows an atmosphere of tranquility and peace, and somewhere in the hills in this warm and peaceful environment, a highly organized army is walking through the slits of the hills with torches.

Under the light of the torches and the starry sky, you can clearly see that this is a team composed of light infantry and cavalry. The light infantry is lined up in several rows and walking in the center of the road. This group wears military uniforms of different colors (all of France The soldiers were in blue and white colors (the British and Ottoman uniforms were red, and the Sardinian uniforms were green). The front and left and right sides are responsible for collecting intelligence and ensuring the safety of the infantry troops on both wings. At the same time, a small number of cavalry troops run back and forth to act as messengers.

The entire force is like a galloping fire snake, winding through the hills. The commander in charge of commanding this force is Major General Canrobert. At this time, he is wearing a blue military uniform and a red t-shirt. Breeches, riding on a tall, snow-white war horse, were at the forefront of the team and moved forward slowly.

Next to him is Captain Jérôme Patterson, who serves as Canrobert's adjutant, and behind Canrobert and Jérôme Patterson are the flag bearers of the four countries of Britain, France, and Austria. Each of the flag bearers is a carefully selected outstanding soldier. They hold the flag of their respective army and follow General Canrobert.

This army marching silently in the dark night has been walking intermittently for nearly a day and two nights since its departure from Varna. During this period, this army has experienced many unexpected things, such as chaotic command and acclimatization. Waiting for problems... However, as a carefully selected rapid response force, they overcame the difficulties brought to them by human factors or the natural environment in a very short time.

Now this urgent march is less than fifteen kilometers away from Silistra Fortress, which means that they are one step closer to danger.

As the army commander, General Canrobert had to be more cautious, because the Russian Empire's army might create a sudden surprise for their army at any time.

When the army crossed the barren valley and came to a relatively flat open area, Canrobert gave the order to the entire army to camp on the spot.

After several hours of galloping, the army finally had time to breathe. The army gathered together in company units to rest.

At the same time, in order to prevent possible attacks by the Russian army, Canrobel spread a large number of cavalry troops around. The cavalry was dispersed in a five-kilometer radius centered on Canrobel for warning.

In this way, the marching troops rested for nearly five or six hours less than ten kilometers away from Silistra Fortress. It was not until the midday sun shone on the earth that Major General Canrobert ordered the troops to continue marching.

During this period, Canrobert called over the commanders of the three armies of Ying Sa and Ottoman and issued them with the next tasks.

When the troops moved out again, the original column mode changed to a two-row horizontal formation mode with the company as the basic unit. The company at the front of the team was the Zhuav Regiment led by Brigadier General Bazin. Following the Zhuav Regiment were The Scots Fusiliers, led by Lieutenant Colonel Somerset Calthorpe (Raglan's nephew and one of Raglan's adjutants), marched in three rows. Behind the Scots Fusiliers were Sardinian Chasseurs were also lined up in two rows. They were troops led by the nephew of Minister La Marmora. The cavalry troops originally scattered around also immediately shrunk. The vast majority of the cavalry continued to guard the infantry, and a small number of reconnaissance cavalry dispersed to conduct reconnaissance within three kilometers centered on the infantry.

The troops continued to attack in the direction of Silistra. When they were less than eight kilometers away from the Silistra Fortress, the "Four-Nation Alliance" force led by Canrobert ushered in their enemy for the first time. .

With the sound of a gunshot, General Canrobert on horseback immediately issued a warning order to Brigadier General Bazin of the Zuave Regiment behind him: "Tell the troops behind to be ready for battle at all times!"

After receiving the order from General Canrobert, Brigadier General Bazin called his messenger at the top of his lungs and gave the order to the messenger.

After receiving the order from Brigadier General Bazin, the messenger hurriedly turned his horse and ran towards the rear.

Looking at the background of the messenger leaving, Brigadier General Bazin turned his head and suggested that General Canrobert should retreat backwards.

General Canrobert, who was standing in the first row of the troops, shook his head and rejected Brigadier General Bazin's suggestion to retreat. Standing in the first row, he took the telescope in his harness backpack in his hand, raised the telescope and looked at it. Look in the direction of the gunfire.

After a while, several blurry yellow shadows appeared in the telescope lens.

As time goes by, the yellow shadow in the lens becomes larger and larger, and the outline becomes clearer and clearer.

It wasn't until the shadow was less than one kilometer away from Canrobel that he was able to see the general situation on the other side clearly.

The owner of the phantom is a Turkish reconnaissance cavalry unit sent by General Canrobert. The original cavalry unit of five people now only has two people left.

Behind them is a group of troops who are not neatly organized but are proficient in riding skills.

They were wearing dark green corseted military uniforms and tall black military caps. They held a flintlock pistol in their hands and a saber at their waists. From their appearance, they looked the same as what Conrobert had seen in a Russian newspaper. Cossack cavalry is much the same.

"General, it's a Cossack!"

Captain Jerome Patterson, who was standing aside, also called out the name Cossack, and he took a breath of air.

"Your Highness, do you know them?" Canrobert glanced at Jerome Patterson beside him in surprise and asked.

Jérôme Patterson told Canrobert that when he was very young, his grandmother told him the story of the Cossacks.

"General, now is not the time to talk about this!" Jerome Patterson said in a serious tone: "As far as I know, these are a tough group of guys!"

"Yes!" Conrobel sighed, looking at the Cossack cavalry troops getting closer and closer with a complicated expression.

For Canrobert, who heard the story of Emperor Napoleon's conquest of Russia when he was a child, and reviewed the campaign of conquest of the Russian Empire at the Saint-Cyr Military Academy when he grew up, the Cossack cavalry has always been an opponent he was eager to fight.

When Emperor Napoleon was conquering the Russian Empire, it was this group of cavalry who were proficient in riding skills and possessing brutal characteristics who served as the most loyal guards of the Tsar. They used their tenacious fighting spirit and tenacity to leave a lasting impression on the French cavalry, which was originally in an offensive state. It had a profound impact and bought enough time for the retreat of the main army of the Russian Empire.

When Emperor Napoleon fell into the ice and snow and began to retreat, they were like the God of Death hidden in the blizzard, once again appearing in front of the French army. The hungry and cold French army was forced to fight, but they were not accustomed to the Moscow winter. How could they be Cossacks? The opponent, hundreds of thousands of French legions, were divided and surrounded bit by bit by the Cossack army like slicing sausages, and finally the entire army was annihilated.

In every battle after that, the Cossack cavalry always took the lead, crushing French armies one after another with their desperate fighting style (although most of these armies were re-formed legions).

When the Cossack army led the Count of Provence (Louis XVIII) into the French mainland, their looting style was like that of the devils in the 19th century, which left a deep impression on the French.

However, the Cossack cavalry is not only the teammate that Major General Canrobert longs for, but also his nightmare, and the nightmare of most French people.

However, Canrobert is not afraid of nightmares. He believes that his Zhuav regiment is also not afraid of nightmares. They are determined to completely shatter the Cossack "myth".

Thinking of this, Major General Canrobert calmed down, and then asked Brigadier General Bazin about the loading of ammunition by the Zhuave Regiment.

"All members of the Zhuav regiment have been loaded." Brigadier General Bazin responded to Major General Canrobert in a sonorous tone.

"Very good!" Major General Canrobert nodded and said loudly: "The Zhu Afu regiment is out!"

Following General Canrobert's order, the military band played the battle movement. After hearing the music, the Zhuav regiment moved forward under the command of the company commander.

The rest of the team stood there and watched quietly. Many of them (Somerset) wanted to take this opportunity to see how powerful the combat effectiveness of this so-called most elite infantry unit in France was.

The Zhuav regiment moved forward for about 100 meters before stopping. The first row of Zhuav regiment soldiers raised their guns. As soon as General Canrobert gave an order, all the bullets would be fired at the Cossacks behind the Turkish cavalry.

With a distance of less than 600 meters between the two, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com There was no possibility of escape for this group of Cossack cavalry.

Seeing the French troops in front of them who were aiming their guns at themselves, the Cossack cavalry put away their thoughts of playing cat and mouse, raised their guns and pointed them at the Turkish cavalry who were running back.

With several "pop" gunshots, the Turkish cavalry who thought they could escape death instantly fell off their horses. The horse carrying the Turkish cavalry roared and also fell down.

The Cossack cavalry behind them stopped at a distance they thought was safe, looking at the Zhuav regiment with a joking expression, as if mocking the soldiers of the Zhuadu regiment opposite for their inability to protect their teammates.

After every soldier of the Zhuav regiment saw such provocation by the Cossack cavalry, they could not help but be filled with anger and wanted to fight to the death with this group of Cossack cavalry.

"General Canrobert, do it!"
