Bokenham's White Lion attack was blocked, and soon the disadvantage of too few French troops appeared. The first was the left wing. The French army on the left wing could only struggle under the fierce attack with three infantry regiments totaling more than 10,000 troops.

Maintain the last line of defense.

I'm not surprised that the Hessians were able to do this.

Isn't there a saying that goes like this, those who are tough are afraid of those who are violent, those who are violent are afraid of being stunned, and those who are stunned are afraid of losing their lives, and the Hessian group belongs to that kind of stunned people. You must know that it is a group that thinks that it is being beaten by the Hessians.

The nobles gathered an army because of the madness of their whole family. They went crazy and even I was scared.

Then the French army on the right wing also appeared to be unable to fight. The narrow terrain where the French army had been relied upon to fight with less and more prevented them from sending more troops when they gained the upper hand. When the French army's right wing deployed 4

An infantry regiment was blocked by a thick defense line, and Bokenham could not be conquered. The overly protruding French army immediately suffered long-range attacks from Prussia on the front and flanks.

Even if the Prussians are veterans, they are still no match for the French in close combat. However, in terms of shooting, the Prussians who have suffered from rigorous training are not much worse than the French elite. If the four infantry regiments on the right wing of the French army continue to be trapped in

On the defense line defended by 6 Prussian infantry regiments and an infantry battalion of the Fifth Spartan Legion, it was already a matter of time before the French right wing was defeated.

After switching to a more forward command location, we were able to view the entire battlefield more clearly.

Faced with the reversal of the situation, Constans looked at the advancing troops on our left wing and said: "Our left wing is about to be exposed. Once we defeat the French left wing, our own army will block the space for the cavalry to spread out.

will disappear. If the French army continues to attack, they will definitely use cavalry. I am afraid that our left wing will suffer heavy casualties on the plain."

Eugene thought for a while and made some suggestions on this situation: "Should we order a halt to the pursuit, or should we send out the cavalry?"

Give the order to stop the pursuit, and the left wing will close its position. The French central and right wing troops will obtain the retreat route and stop when they are ready. This is a plan to reduce losses for both of us. In addition, this plan has another possibility.

The advantage of this is that we defeated the French army at Bokenham, and when we pursue the French army for a battle later, we may be able to defeat the French more easily. Another plan

Just take advantage of his illness and kill him by closing the door and letting the dogs out. If the cavalry is sent out, unless the French army is willing to watch their more than 20,000 people in the center and right wing being swallowed up by us. Otherwise, it will be a fight to the death.

The situation is that either we defeat the French cavalry and eat up the French army in the center and right wing, or they defeat our cavalry and defeat our right wing. They put in the final reserve force and defeat us in one fell swoop.

So, at that moment, my words controlled the life and death of more than 20,000 to 30,000 people.

"Is this still a question? The cavalry, cross our left wing and approach the French army. If the French cavalry is dispatched, stop them."

"cavalry!"

"cavalry!!!"

The messenger who was delivering the order shouted loudly and galloped away from us. After a while, as the ground trembled, there was a sudden wave-like sound on the side behind us.

Immediately after, the loud sound of horns and drums resounded through the sky, and groups of cavalry came out from the rest area at the back with their swords shining brightly, converging into a torrent of steel and rolling forward.

The eagle flag of the Fifth Spartan Legion, headed by the leader, was held high in front of the cavalry. The golden light fluttered in the strong wind, crackling, and the cavalry below were covered in black. The cherry-red tassels on the top of the helmets were like burning flames in the sun.

, confusing people's eyes, followed by the Prussian cavalry.

The fierce sound of war drums and long horns were intertwined with the war roar and the sound of horse hooves, and the intense killing was stirring between heaven and earth.

"The French army is also dispatched!"

In the French position on the distant horizon, there were several faint black lines that slowly but powerfully spread out on the paper like pouring ink. After a while, the fine cavalry of the French army gathered into a huge cavalry formation.

, smoke and dust rolled up from behind where the cavalry troops had stepped, trying to cover the entire sky.

This formation is indeed the elite of the French army.

Although it was too late to ask at this time, I couldn't help but ask: "How is the cannon mobilized by Count Schwerin?"

Eugene replied: "I will send someone to ask."

"ASAP!"

Just when the cavalry from both sides were forming formations, the French cavalry line waiting in front of the formation suddenly seemed to be split open by swords and axes. A passage was opened in the airtight formation, and a group of men and cavalry were waiting.

The heavy cavalry covered in heavy armor walked out like gods descending from the earth. The heavy armor made of fine steel emitted a stinging cold light under the light, and endless chills filled the sky above the French cavalry.

I couldn't help but swallow when I saw that there were cuirassiers in the French army. The horses under the cavalry were all at least 1.8 meters tall.

What does cuirassier mean?

Tall horses, stronger kinetic energy, and stronger momentum during cavalry confrontation. These professional terms are used to describe the result, that is, under the trampling of cavalry, no matter how stubborn the army is, it will fall apart!

Compared with the French cuirassiers, our side is much poorer. Even if the number is not inferior, even the cavalry of the Fifth Spartan Legion cannot be compared with the French. You must know that the Fifth Spartan Legion

The cavalry of the Da Legion can be used as hunting cavalry.

The main force is soldiers. Chasseur cavalry horses are generally about 1.6 meters tall, so it is no problem for the chasseurs to harvest heads and fight cavalry of the same level. But fighting against cavalry of 1.8 meters, think about the size of a large truck.

It looked like several Nissan cars were knocked apart.

"It seems that there are not many cuirassiers in the French army." Eugene shook off the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Probably around a thousand people, nearly a cavalry regiment."

"What to do?" Constans asked what to do many times today.

"Cut the Prussian cavalry in two, let the Prussians advance first, break the French left wing, and then wait for the French cavalry to rush over. The cavalry of the Fifth Spartan Legion will fight against the French cavalry that breaks through.

Block the attack, and then let the remaining Prussian cavalry attack." As for the French cuirassiers, I will save it. The upper-class horse versus the middle-class horse, the lower-class horse versus the higher-class horse, this trick of Tian Ji's horse racing.

"But our Prussian casualties will be heavy!" Several Prussian generals shouted at this time.

I looked at Philetria.

The latter scolded without hesitation: "This is the necessary price to pay for victory! Give me the order!"

When my order was conveyed, the French army also formed up, with the cuirassiers in front and the ordinary cavalry behind. Just waiting for us to defeat their left wing, they rode up and trampled us with their tall horses from Normandy.

The left wing!

"Cavalry, defeat the French army on the left wing!"

The ground under the cavalry's feet receded like a tide. A Prussian cavalry regiment broke away. Thousands of fast-running iron hooves stirred up smoke and dust on the plain. The third infantry line was far away from the French army's last resistance.

When lining up, the cavalrymen raised their sabers high above their heads.

The sharp light made the French infantry line begin to stir, and the soldiers standing in the front row began to look around in horror. The timid ones had begun to retreat, and the officers were riding their horses back and forth, shouting loudly, trying to control the situation. But their efforts

It was in vain, and more people chose to retreat in front of thousands of cavalry.

The army was defeated like a mountain.

The Prussian cavalry plunged into the fleeing left wing of the French army like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep, and the sharp sabers chopped off the chests of each Frenchman to the ground like tearing paper.

However, this group of Prussian cavalry that was raging on the left flank of the French army did not realize that the cloud of death had fallen.

The French cuirassiers are dispatched!

The French cuirassiers stepped over some infantry who had to flee, and inevitably rushed into the Prussian cavalry.

The battlefield was full of people standing on their backs.

The sound of metal clashing and the neighing of war horses intertwined together, and blood bloomed in many places in an instant.

On one side was a dense formation like a torrent. On the other side, although the formation was still maintained, the scattered French infantry had dispersed the team and slowed down the horses. Therefore, even though the number of both sides was almost equal, the battle situation continued to move towards

The French Furious Cuirassiers fell.

The French cuirassiers passed through the formation with their sharp and beautifully curved sabers. The Prussian cavalry fell down one after another, and were trampled into pulp by the iron hooves of the advancing French army.

At this moment, the French cavalry was returning to the Prussians double the damage that Prussia had inflicted on the French infantry at the previous moment.

There was a sound of inhalation all around me. It was so miserable. One thousand cavalry faced one thousand cavalry. We lost almost half of our side. Our morale collapsed in an instant. The French casualties were no more than the group of cuirassiers at the front. Preliminary estimates

In other words, the French exchanged one or two hundred men for more than five or six hundred of my cavalry!

“What a loss!”

However, this is not over yet. The French cuirassiers who took advantage of them followed the fleeing Prussian cavalry and crashed into our infantry on the left wing. They blocked and killed people and trampled on whoever saw them! If they had not blocked them, it is estimated that these cuirassiers would have lost their lives.

The cavalry will run all the way from the left wing to the Prince of Dessau. If this is the case, there will be no need to fight this battle.

"Bang!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Huh!~~"

A series of puffs of smoke relieved my depression, and the cannon I had Schwerin mobilize finally fired.

After the fire, the huge cannonball turned into a black shadow and flew out, passing directly over the battlefield on the left wing in a straight line, and then knocked out one huge gap after another in the majestic French cavalry charge formation.

Watching the French cavalry moaning in mourning, and looking at the noble tall horses that were fed with countless money and food, moaning helplessly in front of the roar of the cannon, I couldn't help but feel lucky that I had a cannon. If I were thrown into the ancient battlefield

, facing the charge of the heavy cavalry, I probably had no choice but to sacrifice the lives of the infantry.

Heavy cavalry, only heavy cavalry can restrain this truth has been changed in the face of technology.

One thousand cuirassiers broke through an equal number of Prussian cavalry. As soon as they showed their majesty in front of the infantry, they were hit by a double blow from artillery and subsequent cavalry. All of them were destroyed in one fell swoop. The cavalry of the Fifth Spartan Legion rushed away.

The French cuirassiers did not hesitate to fight, but turned and left obediently, leaving the left wing with the cannon exposed to the French cavalry that followed.
