Chapter 213 Head-on attack
The next day, Lu Ge wrote his own song and told his comrades.
The comrades were in love with the song after singing just two lines, and then it spread throughout the entire army.
The next day, the song spread throughout North Wind Harbor.
Bonaparte also heard this song.
After listening to it twice, Bonaparte felt that he seemed to have an inexplicable connection with the song.
Bonaparte made some inquiries and found out that the song was written by a young soldier named Rouget.
The young man was summoned immediately.
And asked him how he came up with the idea of writing such a song.
Rouget said he was moved by Bonaparte's speech and that he was a survivor rescued by the dragoons that day.
He witnessed the atrocities committed by the Western French Empire army and was the only one left in his family of four.
At the same time, he was also shocked by the dragoons' indomitable momentum.
Lu Ge wrote this song by chance.
Bonaparte patted Rouget on the shoulder. This young man, who was not even twenty years old, had suffered such a great change.
Good luck fooling people!
Bonaparte decided without hesitation to make this song the military anthem of the revolutionary army.
Bonaparte named this piece Rouge.
What Lu Ge himself did not expect was that this song would be passed down through the ages...
More than ten days later.
Niradi's army finally arrived in Borean Territory.
But under Bonaparte's policy of clearing the countryside.
Most of the civilians in the North Wind Territory were gathered in North Wind Port.
This would mean that Bonaparte and his men would gain a guerrilla depth of more than 50,000 square kilometers.
Perhaps this is just a day's work for the armored forces, but for the two-legged infantry, this depth is enough for them to wander around for several days.
The Niradi army never imagined that they would face something they had never seen before...
The weapons and equipment of the soldiers of the Western French Empire have begun to advance towards the era of muskets.
And they had already developed the flintlock rifle.
However, it is a flintlock rifle that is filled with magic crystal powder instead of gunpowder.
Since magic crystal powder has replaced gunpowder, the standard muskets currently equipped by the Western French Empire generally have a range of 100 meters.
However, the actual effective killing distance is only 60 meters.
As long as the enemy standing 100 meters away is wearing armor, a musket cannot even break through the soldier's defense.
The Spanish Empire relied on muskets, a weapon that almost annexed several neighboring countries.
However, several neighboring countries were not willing to lag behind. They caught up and produced muskets that were as powerful as those of the Spanish and French Empires, and had even begun to develop breech-loading muskets.
While the Western French Empire stepped up the research and development of muskets, it also adopted a strategy of overwhelming the surrounding small countries with numbers.
Build a huge army.
For the Western French Empire, which has a population of 300 million, nearly 10 million troops is not unacceptable.
But the current Western French Empire is already heavily in debt.
Niradi now feels like he is walking on a tightrope every day, and if he is not careful he will fall into the abyss.
Thoughts return to the present.
Among these 100,000 troops, half were equipped with muskets.
This makes the other half very envious.
It's just that they don't know it, so they soon stop envying it.
The army of one hundred thousand men was lined up in a column, like a long black snake, marching forward in the snow and ice.
Soon, it was getting late.
The Niradi army immediately prepared to set up camp.
They didn't realize that several revolutionary soldiers in camouflage clothing had been lying in the snow and observing them for a whole day!
The soldier in charge of reconnaissance immediately reported the situation to his deputy.
The deputy immediately reported the army's situation to the telegraph station one or two kilometers away via walkie-talkie.
The telegraph station immediately sent information on the situation at the front to Bonaparte.
It was learned that a hundred thousand troops had already set up camp.
Bonaparte couldn't help but gloat.
They finally arrived! And they are setting up defenses normally!
You only have one chance!
A chance to directly cripple this army of 100,000!
To this end, Bonaparte and Hobik held close discussions.
Hobik was responsible for leading the infantry to set up defensive positions in three directions around the enemy camp after the artillery bombardment.
Leave a gap and let the enemy escape.
Bonaparte personally led 2000 dragoons to guard this last gap.
He wants to teach these Niradi's lackeys a lesson!
After finalizing the battle plan, Bonaparte immediately sent a telegram to three thousand-man artillery squadrons.
目前,炮兵一共拥有24门150榴弹炮,64门105毫米榴弹炮,120门75毫米步兵炮,60门50毫米战防炮。
And hundreds of mortars.
And there are plenty of ammunition!
Because Lyon has delivered all the inventory in the warehouse.
If you don't send it over soon, it will go moldy!
There are a total of 400 artillery pieces of various types.
All the artillery was directed at the camp where the army was encamped.
The camp of a hundred thousand troops was very spectacular.
At a glance, there were tents everywhere.
But soon, these tents will no longer exist...
Three o'clock in the morning.
On the other side of the mountain not far from the camp.
Nearly 100 artillery pieces with a range of over 100 mm were concentrated on this side of the mountain.
Nearly a thousand artillerymen are preparing for the upcoming bombardment.
They did not know why General Bonaparte had told them to place their cannons on the side of the mountain.
But the general's orders are the highest orders, and they must obey!
"preparation!"
"put!"
"boom!"
As these howitzers with a range of over 100 mm opened fire, various other types of artillery around them also began to attack.
"Boom boom boom!"
Dense artillery shells fell into Niradi's army.
At first, the sentry on duty heard a sudden dense whistling sound in the air. The sentry, who had never heard such a sound, just looked up.
I felt something falling.
The sentry's eyes went dark and the entire guard post was blown to pieces.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The dense explosions woke up all the soldiers.
Many soldiers ran out as soon as they put on their clothes.
Some people ran out without even having time to put on their clothes.
Because they saw with their own eyes that the tent next to them was blown to pieces.
They were so afraid that they would suffer the same fate that they ran out in their underpants despite the severe cold.
The entire military camp was in chaos.
And the revolutionary army's artillery did not concentrate its attack on one point.
The artillerymen benefited equally.
Almost everyone in the camp was taken care of.
These Western French Empire soldiers who were awakened by the explosion were all stupid.
The general of the Western French Empire also immediately ordered his soldiers to prepare for a counterattack.
But for a long time, there was no trace of any enemy, only attacks from the air, coming from nowhere...
The general of the Western French Empire immediately ordered his soldiers to launch a tentative attack in four directions.
He wanted to confirm whether the army was surrounded...
