Struggle in Russia

Chapter 576 So-called allies

The British and French forces launched a pincer offensive towards Ineada from two directions. The British army was responsible for the western front and the French army was responsible for the eastern front. The British army had about 3,000 people, while the French army had about 6,000 people.

According to the results of the discussion between the British and French commanders, the British army was responsible for the feint attack. After attracting the attention of the Russian army, the French army launched a general attack from another direction in order to solve the problem in one blow.

I don’t say how good this plan is, but its operability is still good. Anyway, the British and French coalition forces are quite confident in this plan and don’t think it’s a big problem.

But when they actually arrived on the battlefield, the situation was completely beyond their expectations. After entering a distance of about 300 meters, the Russian army, which had been silent before, suddenly opened fire with full firepower. Long and short guns and artillery opened fire at the same time, instantly overwhelming the British army's queue. It turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Just this thunder blow killed at least five to six hundred British troops. Then, when the slightly panicked British lobster soldiers stabilized their formation and continued to "attack" with their heads raised and chest raised amidst the urging and scolding of the officers, the Russians The army's follow-up attacks came to them one after another.

It was a bloody mess. In just ten minutes, the British army suffered nearly a thousand casualties, and the queue was torn into pieces.

The British commander who was watching the battle was dumbfounded for a moment. The situation was completely different from what he expected. When he saw that there were only more than 300 meters away from the Russian position, he proudly said to the Turkish and French commanders next to him:

"Gentlemen, I think there is a high probability that you will not need to play today. The great British army can solve the problem alone."

Who could have imagined that the situation would change in the blink of an eye. Nearly one-third of his troops were knocked down in a single encounter, and the remaining two-thirds were staggering, not knowing whether to continue advancing or retreat immediately.

And at this moment of hesitation, the third round of Russian attacks came as expected, and then a very embarrassing scene happened for the British commander. The lobster soldiers turned around and ran away without any hesitation.

The scene was clean and tidy, without any sloppiness. Anyway, Turkey was much more decisive in escaping than the previous few days. Even the great British officers were much more decisive than the Turkish officers. After a few words of dissuasion, they turned around together with their soldiers. Entered.

"It seems that your soldiers cannot solve the battle!"

Now it is the French's turn to be proud. Don't think that the relationship between Britain and France is as good as allies now. As feuds, Britain and France have been on the wrong track since the Hundred Years War. After what happened with Napoleon, the relationship between the two sides has become even more intense. Although they fight polar bears together, both sides dislike each other and look forward to each other. Make a fool of yourself.

The British's complacent behavior just now made the French very unhappy, but France's international status is lower, so they can only watch the British proudly.

Now we finally have a joke. How can the French not laugh out loud?

Immediately, the British commander's face became very exciting. It was white with green, then green with black, and it changed like a chameleon.

"This is just a little accident!" he said in a very stern tone, "My young man will be able to regain his strength soon! Beat these damn Siberian barbarians to a pulp!"

The French commander didn't respond, just shrugged casually, but everyone could see what he meant.

The scene was very awkward, especially for the poor Turkish commander. As the junior among the three, he was neither easy to talk to nor could express anything.

It took him a long while to hold back a sentence: "Well, the firepower of the Russians is indeed a bit amazing, and it is normal to have twists and turns."

Naturally, this kind of conciliatory talk cannot satisfy the British and French parties. The British feel that although I am a little anxious, as your great benefactor of Turkey, you have to speak for us no matter what. If we had not always supported You, you have been eaten alive by polar bears a long time ago, and now you have no sense of gratitude at all!

Sure enough, pagan barbarians cannot be civilized!

As for the French. That was also dissatisfying. In his view, as the country that helped Turkey the most, France sent several times the number of troops to support Turkey, and what happened just now, anyone who is not blind knows how bad the British are. How can you still help them smooth things over at this time? It's so hypocritical!

Sure enough, the Turkish barbarians are white-eyed wolves!

Let's mourn the poor Turks. If he knew the psychological activities of the two noble allies at this moment, he would probably hang himself and wipe his neck. They just want to maintain harmonious relations within the allies, okay?

The good news is that the Turks don't have to worry about this for the time being, because when the British regroup and prepare to launch a second attack. The main French offensive force finally launched the attack, and it was the French's turn to be embarrassed!

In fact, according to the original battle plan, the French should have entered the battle later, because according to the estimates of the coalition, the British army should be able to attract the Russian army's attention after launching the attack, and the British army should be able to persist longer.

It's a pity that the British didn't show any strength and were easily chopped back by the Russian's three-sword axe, failing to attract much attention at all. The French were eager to show off after seeing their poor performance, so they urged their troops to attack faster.

The French, who feel very good about themselves, believe that this will be the best opportunity for France to regroup and rebuild its reputation. They want to avenge their shame and tell them that they are the number one army in Europe even if there is no foreign emperor commanding them.

Compared with the strict formation of the British, the French are a little more casual, but their attack method is no different from the British. After finishing the formation, they lined up and started to stride forward, almost the same as a hundred years ago. the difference.

It's just that their number is twice that of the British army, so... so the casualties are even more severe!

Also faced with the hail of bullets thrown wildly by the Russian army, they died more, and... and they also ran faster!

To be honest, without foreigners leading them, they really don't know how to fight. They are undisciplined and have really weak willpower. When they were defeated by the Russian army in large numbers, their morale and military morale immediately collapsed.

Looking at the soldiers who fled back like panicked rabbits, the French commander's face collapsed faster than that of the British, and he looked like a green lump.

Now it was the British's turn to vent his anger, and he was heard mockingly: "Not bad! Really good. Your soldiers are much faster than my boys. In terms of your ability to escape, you are definitely the best in Europe!"
