C2670 Night War on the Wiesanburg (1/2)
The powerful general under the command of General McMahon was also a vanguard of the Eastern Legion, the commander of the First Division, Abel. Du Ai proudly stood on the walls of Wiesanburg. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on his body, causing his figure to appear like an old elder.
It was I who fired the first shot of this battle, I am the first person to charge into Germany, I have obtained the first merit in this battle!
The excited Master Du E seemed to have already seen the banquet in Tuileries' Palace, where he was the absolute star, and the French Emperor was wearing a pure gold badge on his chest, along with the promotion of his title.
The golden setting sun spread across the land, laying a golden path for him … Just as he was about to drool from his fantasies, the aide-de-camp's voice suddenly woke him from his reverie.
”Sir!” The size of the Wiesanburg is just too narrow, and when the Prussian army retreated, he set fire to many of the goods and houses, causing our soldiers to be unable to hold onto them … ”
”Idiot!” Do you still need to ask me that kind of question? ”So what if we have our soldiers camping in the wilderness instead of sleeping in the wilderness in the winter?”
”But …” But the first group still had a third regiment, a seventh battalion, fourth battalion, all levels … They all came to the city with guards to sleep... ”
The aide-de-camp said with a darkened face, ”The commander has gone into the city to find a good house to rest. The soldiers below have their complaints …”
”What?” Without my order, who would dare to enter the city to rest? Don't you know it's the war? I'll put my tent outside the city, and live with the soldiers. I'll see which of them still dares to live in the city! ”
”What time is this? This is the war period, and the enemy is hiding somewhere in the north. If we don't eat with the soldiers, how long are we going to have to wait?! ”
Although Du E was eager to be promoted, he was still a very competent commander. The ten thousand soldiers of the army were all convinced of him. When they saw that their commander had gone out to set up his tent, the rest of the officers left the city walls dejectedly.
The Wiesanburg was not big, a castle built in the Middle Ages only had around 2000 people stationed there, and outside the city wall, there was an open and undefended residential area.
As many buildings in the residential area had been destroyed by the retreating Prussian army, it was very difficult for them to stop people. As a result, a majority of the First Division's soldiers were gathered on a large piece of flat grass in the southeast direction of the Wiesanburg.
The night was low, and the bonfire burned brightly. The flames licked at the bottom of the pot, and the leftover meat soup was still steaming.
The soldiers on night watch were patrolling the grounds with guns, occasionally refreshing themselves with a mouthful of boiling hot soup. The soldiers wrapped in blankets had long since fallen asleep, and the sounds of snoring could be heard one after another.
No one knew that, at this moment, in the darkness of the north, countless figures were moving, an army was rushing towards Wiesanburg!
Prince Karl's third legion finally arrived from behind. The First Vanguard Army was now less than six kilometers away from the Wiesanburg.
There was already a portion of the French scout cavalry patrolling the area, but the proud French army had been too careless. Of course, it was also the time for people to get tired when it was late at night.
Just as the four riders were getting off their horses and sitting down to smoke, several streaks of black light suddenly flew out from the darkness!
Puff puff puff … The arrow pierced through the back of the scouts' heads and necks. The four scouts didn't even have the chance to scream before their souls returned to the Underworld.
The Chinese SPECIAL SERVICES s who were dressed in camouflage clothes like ghosts and ghosts led the Prussian army Knights to quietly approach the Wiesanburg.
All the cavalrymen dismounted, their horses' hooves wrapped in cotton cloth, their horses' mouths stuffed with chewing gum, even the three thousand cavalrymen did not dare to sneakily approach the French army.
Behind these cavalrymen, the soldiers of the First Army also moved forward. Under the lead of the defending army of Wiesanburg who had retreated, they made their preparations for battle.
