Chapter 2693: French lieutenant general was surprised

Such conflicts continued on the border, and intelligence was continuously sent, which shocked Lieutenant General Ostan Otran de La Porta, the commander of the 6th Army of the French Army on the front line. He found that the French army lost more than they won, and Austria The Chinese and the Chinese had an overall advantage in the battle with the French at the front.

Neither side fired a shot, refraining from fighting only with weapons and fists.

The French who returned from the defeat said that the enemy was very brave and powerful, and more importantly, their fighting will was firm, and they could not get out of the line of fire with minor injuries.

Needless to say, the Chinese, this is an army that has fought all over the world, and the Austrians are also very powerful. They fought desperately and overwhelmed the French!

"When did the Austrians become so brave?" Lieutenant General de La Porta murmured.

He is a veteran who participated in the "Thirty Years' War" in Europe when he was young. At that time, Catholic France stood on the side of the Protestant Holland, England, and Bohemia against the Catholic Holy Roman Empire and the Spanish Empire. The Habsburg dynasty (the two empires belonged to the Habsburg family) was defeated and had to sign the "Westphalian Peace Treaty". In this war, the French taught the Austrians a lesson and learned from it. Draw the conclusion that the fighting power of the Austrians is not strong.

Unexpectedly, after twenty years, the Austrians taught the French in turn. Although the French army on the front line is not the main force, what are the Austrians? Reports from the front line said that most of them were young lads, the kind with no hair on their mouths, and no experienced officers and soldiers, but they were very vicious when they fought, and they were not light at all, and they aimed at the French. call!

The captured French army came back and said: "The medicines of the Austrians are very effective. Our wounds are bleeding. They took some medicine powder and sprinkled it on it to stop the bleeding (Yunnan Baiyao), and it got better quickly. And their food is really good. Yes, we are all fat!"

It was the officers of the French army who said this, and the Austrians were not kind enough to treat the French prisoners of war very well. The captured soldiers ate black bread and black beans, but the captured officers still had preferential treatment. They were invited to fight with the Austrians. I ate with the officers of the army and ate Chinese dishes, which were spicy fried twice-cooked pork, spicy tofu and boiled beef (the Austrian cook was a master of Sichuan cuisine?), which made him very satisfied, and he never forgot it, and spread it everywhere after he returned.

Winners and losers sit together and eat as equals. It seems inconceivable to Easterners, but in Western countries, most of them share common beliefs, almost all of them are Christian countries, and share common ideas, although there are differences. , but the general beliefs are the same. When fighting in the land of Christ, there is no need to fight to the death. There is no idea of ​​putting the opponent to death. Surrender is allowed --- and it is also the tradition of allowing captives to pay ransom passed down in the Middle Ages related.

After the French in combat surrendered, their safety could be guaranteed at the very least, which was regarded as chivalry: "I am not afraid of your strength. I fought with you and defeated you. I forgive you."

This point has also been recognized in China. The South China Army has always treated prisoners preferentially, and the South China officers who now control the Austrian New Army are no exception.

All the information shows that the Austrians are different from before, but the French are still very arrogant. They think that the Austrians are mountain people (Austria is mountainous), and the mountain people are rough and powerful. They are barbarians, so they have the upper hand in hand-to-hand combat. .

If there is a fight, the French confidently believe that France's iron fist will completely crush the resistance of the Austrians!

They did not have long to wait, and soon they were able to demonstrate the might of France's iron fist.

Then the French tasted the power of the Austrian iron fist!

The start of the war is imperative. The Austrians and the French competed in a small village. First, they fought hand-to-hand. When the French found that they could not fight, they used weapons and shot!

The gunfire rang out, and the soldiers on both sides fired their guns bang bang bang, followed by bombs.

The French were horrified to find that their soldiers were knocked down by the Austrians' precise shooting. As a result of the two sides' guns, the Austrians shot accurately and at a fast speed. After a burst of random shooting, the French were defeated and retreated.

"What?" Lieutenant General de Laporta was surprised again. When he heard the news of the shooting on both sides, the army was already defeated, and he couldn't believe his ears.

Then he was even more surprised when he heard that 2,000 troops had gone to attack a battalion of the Austrians, but they still couldn't take it down!

The battalion under attack was the officers and soldiers of the 2nd Battalion. They occupied a very good position on the hill, surrounded by low plains, with a wide field of vision and a panoramic view of tens of miles, so they were inevitably attacked.

"Cannonball, the cannonball is coming! Dodge!" screamed the Austrian sergeant on the top of the hill who was watching with a telescope.

The smoke filled the French position at the foot of the mountain, and the French artillery bombarded the Austrian position on the top of the mountain in the form of a volley of artillery.

Speaking of which, the firepower of the Frenchman was quite fierce, and his shots were very accurate, until the parapet wall at the top of the mountain collapsed, the dust was flying, and the trees fell.

The shells are mainly solid shells, and it is really good to be able to hit this level.

The French army used 6 12-pounder guns and 10 6-pounder guns. The firepower was not weak, and they bombarded the Austrian positions comfortably without encountering counterattacks.

The 2nd Battalion of the Austrian Army was a vanguard unit and did not carry heavy weapons.

It's a pity that although the shells are fierce, there is no actual damage to the posture alone, because the Austrian army at the top of the mountain only left a few observation posts and snipers, and the rest of the officers and soldiers lined up neatly on the **** of the reverse slope, sitting very leisurely. rest on the ground,

That's right, the enemy is strong and we are weak, Liu Yupu is going to use reverse **** tactics to deal with the French.

Reverse-slope positions often appear on battlefields in mountainous and hilly areas. Generally, we call the side of the high ground facing the enemy a **** or a front slope, and the side facing away from the enemy is called a reverse slope. Positions built on hillsides facing away from the enemy are also It is the so-called reverse **** position. This kind of anti-slope position is very common, and the party with weak firepower often adopts this tactic

, out of the consideration of avoiding the opponent's firepower.

When the French army lined up to climb the mountain, they stopped shelling in order to avoid accidental injury. When they reached the middle of the mountain, the observation post of the Austrian Army on the top of the mountain waved the red flag downward. He moved on the ground, crossed the ridge, came to the position on the positive slope, pointed the gun at the enemy on the mountainside~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then under the command of the officer, the rifled gun fired first.

Gunshots, people fall!

As the vanguard, the rifled guns of the 2nd Battalion were all equipped with scopes and fired pointed bullets, shooting one down within a distance of 300 meters!

There were 300 Austrian soldiers, and there were 90 rifled guns. When 90 bullets were fired, they knocked down at least 70 or 80 people. The Austrian soldiers were well trained, and they fired three bullets per minute. The French soldiers Nearly 200 people have fallen, and the French army who came to attack is only about 600!

Seeing that the situation was not good, the French army, who was attacking with drums, swarmed forward regardless of the formation.

Entering the range of the musket, the Austrian army opened fire with full force!

There was a thud of gunfire, and when the gunfire stopped, the remnants of the French army scrambled and fled down the hill, rifled guns hunting them down.
