The sound of the representative launching an attack suddenly resounded throughout the entire front line of the left wing, and a large number of infantrymen lined up in line advanced with the momentum of a mountain bearing down on the flag held high by the flag bearer.

On the left side of the French army, the 2nd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Army, which was forming a skirmish line and was conducting harassing fire, fell silent the moment the attack horns and drums were sounded from the own camp.

The troops composed of veterans heard the sound they were most familiar with from the seemingly chaotic noise, their attack signal from the Fifth Spartan Legion!

Many people raised their bayonets and almost rushed out the moment they heard the signal, but soon, the soldiers in this unit realized the situation in front of them.

They are not line infantry in a dense formation!

They are now scattered over a large area in skirmish lines!

The target of the charge on the opposite side is a whole, a large, well-formed French soldiers!

If we launch a charge, we are simply asking for death!

Do they want them to die?

Many soldiers of the 2nd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Legion reacted quickly and looked around, thinking that they might be asking others to charge. However, reality broke their luck.

As far as the eye could see, there was not a single troop holding the eagle flag of the Roman Empire. Obviously, the signal from the left wing was for them to charge!

"what to do?"

You ask me how do I know what to do?

Stunalas really wanted to kick away the recruit next to him who was at a loss and asked him questions!

rush?

It's death!

Don’t rush!

Just disobey military orders!

Stunaras subconsciously searched for the location of the battalion captain!

Battalion Captain, yes, many people are looking for the location of the battalion captain, but without the identification of the eagle flag, the 2nd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Legion could not find their battalion captain at all!

what to do?

"rush!"

Stunalas clenched his teeth and shouted!

"What?" Not only were the new recruits next to him stunned, but even some of his old comrades looked at Stunaras in astonishment.

"I said draw the bayonet. Idiot! Do you want us, the Second Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Legion, to be embarrassed in front of these foreigners?"

"Oh oh oh~"

Stunalas pulled out his bayonet and stuck it on the muzzle of his gun. Seeing that everyone was almost ready, he said: "Let's trot towards the French! And gather the people nearby! Now, everyone, follow me.

!”

The next second, he used all the strength in his life to shout: "Romans! Assemble!!"

"Assemble!!"

Stunalas's team was not the first to launch a charge. Just before they launched the charge, someone had already raised his bayonet and ran to the flank. But among so many people, he was the first to realize

Even if a charge is launched, a sufficient number of people still have to be gathered and trotted.

"Assemble!"

Seemingly inspired by Stunaras, some people began to send signals to their scattered comrades to get closer.

More than a thousand Romans scattered on the flanks slowly changed from a small group of three or five to a size of forty or fifty people in just a few minutes as they trotted. And these slowly thickening teams continued.

There are signs of rendezvous. But the French army is not far away.

Fear continued to grow in Stunaras, but at this time, he had no way out.

In order not to tarnish the reputation of the Fifth Spartan Legion and to maintain the pride of a Roman, he had no choice but to charge. Now, he could only feel better by shouting loudly to release his fear.

"Long live Rome!!!"

I don't know who screamed from a place more than 70 meters away. This caused the entire second battalion, which was still advancing at a trot, to enter a high-speed running charge state.

"Come on!"

An infantry battalion was divided into four charging teams of different sizes, each with nearly 300 men. To attack the French left wing of more than 6,000 people with less than 1,000 men was simply asking for death, but luckily.

At this time, the French left wing quickly collapsed due to the rapid collapse of the first line of infantry, causing their attention to be directed to the mustache scum group who was trying to tear apart the second infantry line on the French left wing. By the time they realized it, Si

Tunaras' second battalion has closed to a distance of more than 100 meters.

Boom!

The left wing of the French army was hit, but due to the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Army, this impact could not cause much damage to the French army. If there is any saving grace, the fierce attack from the flank allowed

The French troops on the second and third lines were a little confused.

Especially the French army on the second line. Due to the rapid defeat of the first line, the infantrymen on the second line were suddenly attacked by the enemy who suddenly appeared and started a hand-to-hand combat inexplicably. Now because of the

Attacked by the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Legion, they thought they were being attacked from two sides.

But this was not the impact of the Second Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the 5th Spartan Legion joining the battle. The French left wing was driven back by the Mustache Regiment. The first line of line infantry was followed by the Saxon Regiment.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the Romans, their morale was high. Not only did they help the Mustache Rebellion to tear apart the French second line of infantry, but they also joined the battle of the third line with great enthusiasm. In an instant, the French left wing was completely trapped.

Disadvantage, it's only a matter of time before they are defeated.

At this time, the French "White Lion", like a hungry lion emerging from its cage, suddenly pounced on Bokenham where the Prince of Dessau was.

The sky above Bokenham was filled with the smell of sulfur after burning gunpowder, and the smell of blood was suppressed below. The white lions of the French army still maintained their full fighting spirit after being hit by a hellish hail of arrows and bullets fifty meters away.

Under the leadership of the officers, they launched a fierce charge towards the Prince of Dessau's defense line.

In just thirty minutes, the Prince of Dessau, who had only a lot more troops than this infantry regiment, asked us if we could retreat when necessary, because half of Bokenham had already been defeated by the French army.

Occupied. If Bokenham is completely occupied, even if the French left wing is defeated, they can still win the war. However, this does not mean that we lose.

The infantry regiment under the Prince of Dessau are all veterans who have experienced several battles. This army cannot be defeated so easily. As long as the Hessian infantry regiment defeats the French "White Lion", Bokenham can be stabilized.

, the French army attacking on the right wing completely became a turtle in the urn.

At this time, the Duke of Villeroy had only two choices left.

Either use cavalry on the left wing and waste the last bit of troops in a meaningless battle that is bound to lose. Or, use cavalry on the right wing and attack in turns, depending on the results of the French cavalry before making plans.

"Let Count Schwerin position his cannons further forward! His cannons are not far enough forward!"

"What if the Hessian Infantry Regiment cannot defeat the [White Lion]?" Eugene asked at this time.

I answered with great certainty: "As long as the [white lion] cannot bite Bokenham, the victory in this war will still be ours."

Constans asked: "Why are you so sure that the Hessian Infantry Regiment can inflict great damage to the [White Lion]?"

"Have you forgotten what I sent a battalion of skirmishers to do at Bokenham?"

Constans replied with certainty: "Harass the enemy and snipe the officers."

"So what is the most powerful thing about the French [White Lions] Infantry Regiment?"

Eugene said: "Violent lethality?"

"Then who is responsible for the crazy killing power of the [White Lion] Infantry Regiment? Is it the soldiers? Or the officers?"

"...Why not send the Fifth Spartan Legion up?" Constans nodded, feeling that the white lion was actually not a hard nut to crack. "Wouldn't it be better?"

"Aren't we going to have a cavalry battle later?"

"If our cavalry cannot defeat the French and we want to maintain the victory, we can only rely on the Fifth Spartan Legion."

"But what if the news about sniping the officer gets out in the future? Your reputation..." Feletelia asked.

I patted Feletelia and comforted me: "Do I still have a reputation? Besides, we can just blame the French themselves. After all, they launched the attack themselves, and their bullets have no eyes."

"

We spoke very lightly in the rear, but that was not the case at the front.

Screams, groans, guns, and swords intertwined together. The battle at Bokenham became very tragic as soon as it started. The attacking French army suffered more casualties, and their corpses were everywhere, but this kind of desperate

The way to play is to let Desao kiss

The Prussian infantry regiment under the king often left behind more than a hundred corpses and retreated. The French army would take advantage of this short period of time to replace the troops behind and hold the position. Prince Dessau could only watch the continuous

The lost position stared dryly.

It is not that the Prince of Dessau has not organized a counterattack, but the Prussians have a weakness in close combat. Instead of exposing their shortcomings, it is better to use their strengths and avoid weaknesses and continue to hold on to the position. But this means that once the position is lost, it can never be regained. There is really no way.

The Prince of Dessau found a group of low-level officers without military belts from the crippled team and organized a war supervisory team. Due to the emergence of the war supervisory team, the Prussian infantry could only bite the bullet and continue to resist, and the battle was in a stalemate for a while.

It’s just that the endless stream of Frenchmen seems to never end. They appear one after another, and they don’t know what will end this battle. Once the soldiers’ fear of the enemy is much higher than the fear of the troops under their command, about

The salient, Bokenham, the defensive key point that crucified the French cavalry, was lost.

, then the battle is very likely to fail. You must know that the reason why the French army did not use cavalry from the beginning was because the presence of Bokenham blocked the site, preventing them from fully deploying their cavalry. They lacked the ability to charge in groups.

Powerful, single-handed cavalry can easily be cannibalized by huge infantry.

Just when the position held by the Prince of Dessau regarding Bokenham was less than half of its original size, his pressure suddenly stagnated.

Seeing the unfamiliar flag appearing on the flank of the French army, the Prince of Dessau picked up his telescope and looked at it for a short while. He was startled before he realized that it was one of his own.

It turned out that the Hessian infantry regiment on the left wing joined the battle. Hearing the war drums and the sound of fighting coming from the rear of the French army, the Prussians in Bokenham were greatly boosted. Prince Dessau quickly charged several times.
