Duke Mikhail, who was so focused on seeing Leonid deflated, was too impatient to wait, so he went to the front line enthusiastically without checking the battle plan drawn up by Leonid.

He was going to add fuel to Leonid's fire, to encourage the officers and soldiers of the 748 regiment who were about to embark on the road of death, and to make them even more excited. Presumably, the personal lectures from him, the commander-in-chief, will have a somewhat motivating effect!

It's just that when Duke Mikhail saw the first wave of offensive troops prepared by Leonid, he was a little dazed, because not all the troops were dispatched, and there were only a mere battalion of soldiers in front of him.

At that time, Prince Mikhail had such a thought in his mind: [What can this little man do? 】

No wonder Duke Mikhail was surprised, because the 578 regiment that was in charge of attacking Buftea before, let alone one battalion or three battalions at the same time, failed to gain a firm foothold in Buftea. typed out.

Duke Mikhail felt more and more that Leonid was a little ignorant, either he didn't pay attention to the 578 regiment at all, or he didn't sum up the experience and lessons of the 578 regiment at all, otherwise it would be impossible to do this kind of useless meaningful things.

Of course, he didn't say anything, and was happy to watch Leonid's jokes. Who told him to take the opportunity to beat this nephew!

So he delivered an impassioned and inspiring speech indifferently. The only thing that made him a little regretful was that the number of people who were beaten was a bit small, and the scene was too small.

"Are you ready to start?" Prince Mikhail asked eagerly.

Leonid nodded: "Yes, everything is ready. After the shelling is over, the first round of attack will begin immediately!"

Prince Mikhail nodded with satisfaction, and said to Leonid very generously: "Very well, the shelling must be sufficient, and don't be stingy with the shells. This aspect can be used openly!"

Has Prince Mikhail suddenly become generous? Of course not, but he felt that Leonid was a bit petty, and he only invested so much in the attack. When will the 748 regiment's vitality be exhausted! So it's better to tell him that the supply of shells is open, and let him be bolder and put all his strength into a full-scale attack as soon as possible.

Naturally, Leonid didn't know what kind of crooked idea his uncle had, and thought it was the kindness of Duke Mikhail! However, if the supply of shells is open, it will indeed save him a lot of trouble, and it is too late for him to be happy!

"That's great! That way I'm more sure!"

Prince Mikhail looked at the joyful Leonid, and he was even happier in his heart. He couldn't wait!

As the first round of shelling kicked off the attack, the 1st Battalion of the 748 Regiment in charge of the attack invested about a company of troops to start fire reconnaissance. According to the previous reconnaissance route, this company was scattered, with a frontal distance of almost several hundred meters. Advance in loose formation to the intended target.

Seeing this scene, Duke Mikhail frowned, because the strength of the first battalion was too scattered, and there were only one person scattered hundreds of meters in front, almost every ten meters. Such a loose formation can't form any impact at all, let alone capture the enemy's position, if it encounters the enemy's countercharge, it will be defeated in one round!

Not only was the formation of the offensive troops too loose, but Duke Mikhail was not satisfied with the intensity of the shelling. He allocated a dozen 12-pound guns from an artillery battalion for Leonid to use. But in the shelling just now, a total of five or six artillery pieces were working, and the intensity of the firepower was as tick-tock as the old man peeing, and it was not at all smooth.

Moreover, the power of the 12-pound field gun is very limited, and it is not particularly suitable for attacking tough situations. It is best to use 18-pound or even 25-pound heavy guns to attack. The power is limited and the density of firepower is extremely low. What effect can such cover shooting have? It is simply to tickle the enemy!

Looking at the calm Leonid,

Then he looked at the methodical and slow-firing artillery and the loosely advancing infantry, and Duke Mikhail suddenly had a strong desire to vomit. He began to doubt the rumors that people said that Leonid was an excellent soldier. Based on what he saw and heard today, how could this be called excellent?

If he was Leonid's teacher, he would definitely fail this kid, because this performance is too eye-catching. You must hit the power when attacking tough battles, and you must clench your fists tightly to punch in. You ah What the hell is this coward trying to do now!

Prince Mikhail started to worry about Leonid, he just wanted to beat Leonid, but he didn't think it would really embarrass Leonid, and now this behavior looks like a bad dish, you see Seeing that even his adjutant showed a disdainful expression, he clearly despised someone!

Duke Mikhail couldn't help reminding: "The firepower is too low, the troops invested are too few and too scattered!"

Leonid didn't speak, as if he didn't hear what Prince Mikhail said, he used his binoculars to observe the situation on the battlefield, his face was very calm, as if he didn't see the expression of those hot eyes .

This made Duke Mikhail even more anxious, and he reminded again: "Leonid, there are problems with firepower and troop deployment!"

Unexpectedly, Leonid replied solemnly: "No problem, this is my request! The situation is as I expected!"

Prince Mikhail is about to vomit blood: It is just as you expected, what is the meaning of this bird, if you are not my nephew, I will arrange this for you, and I will have to dismiss you, no! Let you go back to your hometown directly!

Duke Mikhail couldn't help emphasizing his tone: "This is impossible! It is impossible to capture the enemy's position with such a low density of people and firepower!"

But what Prince Mikhail didn't expect was that Leonid replied very calmly: "I didn't expect such a small force to capture the enemy's position. This is a fire reconnaissance and test!"

This answer stunned Duke Mikhail for a moment. He raised his binoculars and looked at the performance of the first battalion. The soldiers of this company did not have a strong desire to attack. They moved slowly and took every step forward cautiously. He was really watching the enemy's reaction.

"Oh, so it's fire reconnaissance! I'll just say it!"

Prince Mikhail relaxed a little bit, even though he actually thought that this kind of fire reconnaissance was a little bit of nothing, but since Leonid said so, he still had to look again to see if such a test could detect order something...
