Make France Great Again

At this moment, the headquarters of the 3rd Division on the main peak of Inkerman Mountain.

In order to prevent being blown up by Russian artillery, the division headquarters had already been moved from the original open space on the top of the mountain to the inside of the bastion for office operations.

However, Chief of Staff Trochu, who was the actual commander of the French 3rd Division, was not commanding from the bastion. Instead, he stood in the trenches in the front row, observing through binoculars the Russian soldiers and soldiers marching towards the hillside of Inkermann Mountain from all directions. The military flags of various units were erected behind them.

"Tsk, tsk! Two more regiments are here! The Russian vanguard is almost catching up, and half of our division is already there!" Trochu, who saw the brand-new military flag through the telescope, praised him, and then he turned to ask around him The commander of the Guards Division said: "Five regiments, nearly ten thousand people! Do you have the confidence to defeat them?"

The regiment leader responded to Major General Trochu with a high-spirited expression: "No matter how many people they come, I am confident that I will wipe them all out! General Trochu, please give the order! I am willing to lead the charge!"

"Very good!" Major General Trochu nodded with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with the current state of the Guards Division: "You must remember that you are one of the best troops in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor, so I will never allow this. There are no cowards in a good army.

You go tell the team under your jurisdiction that anyone who dares to escape without authorization from the division headquarters will be severely punished! If a soldier runs away, the company commander and battalion commander of his unit will also be punished. If a company runs away, the battalion commander and you will also be punished, and so on without a limit.

have you understood? "

"I understand!" the regiment leader repeated in a sonorous tone, "General Trochu, please give the order! I will lead my regiment to defeat the Russian army at the foot of the mountain!"

"Don't be anxious!" Major General Trochu raised his hand to stop: "The reason why His Majesty and the Marshal deployed so many artillery here is not to avoid hand-to-hand combat with the Russian Empire as much as possible.

Let them have a taste of artillery first! "

Under the order of Major General Trochu, there was no movement from the French army in the trenches. Everyone held their breath and stared at the Russian army. Upon seeing this, the Russian army ran desperately to the top of Inkermann Mountain, and their speed was getting faster and faster. faster.

When the Russian Empire's army was less than 600 meters away from the top of the mountain and the French army in the first trench was less than 200 meters away, the artillery in the bastion on the top of the mountain began to fire in the direction of the Russian Empire's army under the command of the artillery.

Continuous roars were emitted from the top of Inkerman Mountain, and the ground shook like an earthquake. This vibration was transmitted through the earth and made every soldier on Inkerman Mountain feel the shaking. The cannonballs were spat out from the mouth of the giant steel beast, roaring into the sky with enough kinetic energy to easily tear hundreds of strong men apart. The moment after these cannonballs left, orange-red flames appeared, but Soon the fire disappeared, leaving only white smoke shrouding the surroundings of the bastion.

Those artillery shells that were strafed into the sky by the powerful impact used all their strength to reach the highest point that their group could reach in the form of a parabola, and then fell rapidly along the already designed projectile trajectory, hitting the Russian target like a meteor. army.

Even the Russian soldiers who had already suffered from howitzers had nothing to do with them. The soldiers standing at the front of the team could only shout "Ula" and then speed up and run in the direction of the first trench, but they The attempt was crushed by the French soldiers waiting for work in the trenches. Many Russian soldiers were directly shot to death by French soldiers.

If the Russian Imperial Army in the front section could still choose to be shot to death/injured by France, then the Russian soldiers in the middle section of the team would be in bad luck.

The palm falling from the sky... No, the cannonball falling from the sky hit directly around the Russian Imperial soldiers in the middle, and the explosion was enough to kill several Russian soldiers around them.

Of course, being directly killed by artillery is considered a relatively good way to die, and those Russian Imperial soldiers who were "lucky" to only have their hands and feet blown off are the most miserable people.

Those soldiers whose limbs were blown off not only had to endure the pain of losing their limbs, but also had to pray that the Russian Empire would be kind enough to take them back when it retreated.

Even if they are lucky enough to return to the camp, they will still have to face a series of surgeries.

In the 19th century, the survival rate of each operation (here specifically referring to military operations) was about 10%. For doctors with slightly better medical skills, the survival rate was about 25%.

In other words, the vast majority of soldiers are in pain on the operating table (although the Russian Empire already has ether as an anesthetic for operations, ether is not available to ordinary people. Most soldiers can drink a little vodka before surgery. (all under anesthesia), I had to suffer the pain of wound infection again.

Because during this period of time, except for France, which mandates high-temperature sterilization of medical equipment, no other country is willing to spend time sterilizing medical equipment. Many medical equipment are reused, and even doctors with a little public conscience just put them away. Warm water for simple cleanup.

Even though the Russian soldiers gritted their teeth and endured a series of pains, they were forced to retire from the Russian Empire due to injuries.

Retirement in the Russian Empire is not like retirement in the 21st century. There is no pension for their retirement. This means that after a soldier of the Russian Empire retires, all his financial sources will be cut off.

The soldier himself is not only disabled, but also has no skills.

In this case, it would be easier to die directly.

"Help me...God!"

"Ah...someone, come quickly!"

…

The originally peaceful battlefield became noisy after the howitzers in the bastion were fired. Wails and begging for mercy continued. The entire battlefield suddenly turned into a hell. The Russian soldiers struggled in pain in the hell, and the French soldiers in the trenches also They also looked at the miserable condition of the Russian soldiers not far from them with a look of horror.

As for the Russian Imperial soldiers in the back row, they were undoubtedly the luckiest group of people. They had not yet been "baptized" by artillery shells and stopped and began to retreat.

The entire front began to gradually collapse under the continuous retreat of the Russian Empire. After seeing this scene, Major General Trochu in the trench quickly issued an order to the regimental commander beside him: "Blow the trumpet! Charge!"

After receiving the order, the regiment commander immediately turned to the soldiers in the rear trench and shouted loudly: "Blow the trumpet! Charge!"

Accompanied by a loud charge, French soldiers wearing blue and white breasted uniforms and blue flat hats rushed out of the trenches and charged at the collapsing Russian Imperial Army.

The regiment leader who was rushing at the front came to the soldiers of the Ekaterina Regiment in three steps and two steps at a time. Looking at the young and frightened Russian soldier in front of him, the regiment leader mercilessly drew out his sword and stabbed him hard. , the soldier who had not yet reacted was stabbed to the core by the regimental commander in the blink of an eye.

Several soldiers standing around him gritted their teeth and wanted to avenge his comrades, but they were cut and shot by the French soldiers who caught up.

The regimental commander drew his sword out of the soldier's body and roared in victory, "Long live France! Long live the Empire!"

The surrounding soldiers also shouted the slogan "Long live France! Long live the Empire".

Perhaps because of the slogans, the morale of the soldiers in the Russian Empire showed a visible drop. Soldiers who were originally good at fighting became completely demoralized under the high-pitched slogans.

A small group of Russian soldiers began to drop their weapons and retreat back. Under the image of this small group of soldiers, the entire Russian Empire's front was in a state of serious torn apart.

The French Guards Division (actually the offensive force is only one regiment, and the vanguard force is one battalion) is like a sharp knife, ruthlessly inserted into the five offensive regiments of the Russian Empire (due to the terrain of the Inkerman Mountains , the actual confrontation between the five regiments was less than five battalions, only about one and a half regiments, and the remaining troops were still in the back row), and then quickly separated the Ekaterina Regiment and Selenkins Some members of the group were separated and surrounded.

Seeing this scene, the remaining regiments immediately displayed the "good tradition" of being as fast as the wind, and they began to retreat backwards.

Soon, the Ekaterina regiment and the Selengins regiment, which were separated and surrounded by the French army, became abandoned.

In despair, they ignored the French army's persuasion to surrender and began to attack the French soldiers who surrounded them. They were eventually eliminated by the French soldiers.

The French soldiers at the forefront still held tightly to the remaining three and a half regiments of soldiers, and the frightened Russian army did not dare to resist at all.

Just as Chu Yun and Commander Chu said in Bright Sword, even if there were 50,000 pigs, the communist army would not be able to capture them all in three days.

As group creatures, when faced with the collapse of group order and knowing that they can survive by resisting, many people are often unwilling to take the lead because of their selfish thinking.

During the escape, hundreds of Imperial Russian soldiers died not at the hands of the French, but in a stampede.

It was not until the Cossack cavalry arrived to relieve the siege that the French soldiers stopped their pursuit. They quickly formed a horizontal formation and looked at the Cossack cavalry warily.

Feeling that there was no chance, the Cossack cavalry faced off with the French soldiers for a moment, then turned their horses and left.

The French soldiers also retreated in columns. When the French soldiers returned to the trenches, only an hour and a half had passed.

"We are victorious!" Major General Trochu, who was bathed in the enemy's blood, raised his hands and shouted loudly.

The French soldiers on the entire Inkermann Hill position shouted loudly at the same time: "We are victorious!"

Just when everyone was envious and happy, an officer wearing a green military uniform appeared in front of Trochu. He said to Major General Trochu in a panic: "Your Excellency, Major General, please Save us!"

"What's going on!" Major General Trochu asked the Sardinian officer in front of him with a serious face.

If the left wing garrisoned in Sardinia is really lost, then the French army may be facing a fierce battle.

Sardinian officers told Major General Trochu that their troops were suddenly attacked by the Russian Empire and fell into chaos. Marshal La Maramore fought back, but because of the sudden incident, he did not gather enough troops.

Therefore, after the two hunting battalions of the Second Division were defeated, the entire trench was in danger.

The Russian Imperial Army is now constantly increasing its forces on the left wing, and they need the support of Inkerman Mountain.
