Chapter 500 Killing Three Thousand Enemies
"Kill over, don't be polite to the peasants and soldiers who are blocking the way, and fight back to the camp."
The battle went on until midnight, and Shaoborayi's troops had been completely driven out of the camp.
His efforts to restore order through messengers completely failed. Now the intensity of the Transylvanian army's attack on the enemy was completely in vain. Even most of the direct generals of Szoborai have fallen into complete panic.
However, as a general of the Kingdom of Hungary, Szaborayi made a keen judgment after thinking for a while in the night wind.
The number of Austrian troops was not very large, so he gave orders to the hundreds of guards around him to attack friendly forces.
Although there are many unfavorable factors from a macro perspective, from a tactical perspective, Shaoporai still has 20,000 troops no matter what. Even if those who make up the number are deducted, the 3,000 elites around him are still very effective.
Although he can only control one-tenth of it now, Shao Borayi refuses to give up, and he still has to make a final counterattack
"No, Your Majesty." But several veterans who were following him resolutely stopped his order, "You are the king, you cannot swing your sword at your subjects."
Shaoporai knew that this was the only chance to reverse this defeat militarily, but politically it was absolutely impossible.
No matter how disappointing those Romanian peasant soldiers and Ukrainian Cossacks are, the nominal King of Hungary cannot kill them.
At this time, Shaobo Rayi was really in a dilemma. Every minute he hesitated, the troops he had put together with so much hard work were dissipated. This was all his capital to win the Buda championship.
How much effort did he spend to get to this point? He carefully hid his conspiracy under Feidetaler's conspiracy, and repeatedly studied King Qin's route to successfully avoid participating in the war. In order to make the world believe in him, even his younger brother was ruthless.
The land was abandoned in Mohache
It took a lot of hard work and sacrifice to maintain the image of a loyal minister until the last minute.
There is also the support of the real elected pope. There are really too many twists and turns and sadness to overcome the Habsburg family and obtain this orthodox status.
It is really not easy to take this step. It is the result of generations of careful management of the Shauporai family in the conflict between the Habsburg family and the Jaglonian family. It is finally about to establish a kingdom of the Shauporanyi family.
Got it
But all of this suffered an unprecedented heavy blow tonight
Although we know that we can't repel the enemy without killing our defeated troops, the best decision now is to retreat as soon as possible and save as many seeds as possible.
But Shaobo Laoyi couldn't make up his mind.
Finally, with the help of the Hohenzollern magistrate, Shaoborai finally made up his mind to retreat.
After realizing that the defenders of Pest were launching a surprise attack on the enemy, General Hohenzollern handed over the defense of Buda to Queen Mary and Horthy, and crossed the Danube with a thousand Austrian troops to support Pest.
It is quite dangerous to cross the river at night, and it is extremely dangerous to cross the river in front of the enemy's army.
It was only because of the high status of the Hohenzollern Commander that those sailors and soldiers acted reluctantly.
These Austrian troops are not elite, they are farmers and soldiers mobilized again by Austria. Although the basic officers still have some experience, amphibious assault in front of the enemy is obviously beyond their capabilities.
The Austrian army didn't know what they were doing, and a large part of them didn't even know what they were doing.
They were crowded together on the river beach, just like a large group of ducks waiting to be slaughtered.
But the Transylvanian army was more chaotic and fearful than them.
The Hohenzollern landing did act as a two-sided attack. After seeing the Austrian transport ship on the river bank, Schauborai finally chose to give up.
"Your Majesty will wait until you return to Alba Iulia. Now that Austria and the Ottomans are fighting together, there are no green hills left to photograph or firewood to burn."
"Your Majesty, withdraw first"
In the coercion of his subordinates, Shao Borayi took the last few hundred elites to escape north along the Danube River, then turned east and retreated towards his lair.
"Your Highness, we can no longer pursue you. We have already captured more than a thousand prisoners."
The sky was gradually getting brighter. Jones was reminded by his subordinates that he had achieved great results. The prisoners kneeling on the ground had exceeded the number of troops under his control.
Looking back, Pest City doesn’t seem to be very far away.
During a night of fighting, Jones thought he had chased him dozens of miles away, but it turned out that he was always spinning in circles.
In fact, the Austrian army did not have much structure in this battle. Jones basically did not use any of the segmented cutting and centripetal attack tactics. The idea of killing the opponent's command center was simply impossible to realize, but he still won.
&nbs
p; His experience in commanding battles is also very limited, but this time he gained some experience in guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines. Through comparison, he could see the strength and weakness of the two enemy armies.
Compared with the Ottoman army, the Transylvanian army's array and camping speed could not be considered an army at all, so he attacked decisively and won the victory.
Of course, the specific reason for victory is that Sheng took the initiative from the beginning and drove the defeated soldiers to run around.
Moreover, in the past period of fighting behind enemy lines, Jones's unit has created a strong force that the officers and soldiers trust closely.
Even the core elite of Austria does not have this kind of cohesion. This kind of power can only be produced under extremely bad circumstances.
Under the pressure of Austria, the Ottomans adopted an unusually cruel occupation policy. This made the Hungarians' resistance no longer limited to the nobles who had lost their power. All Hungarians were protecting their homes and relatives.
As a result, a lot of friendship and trust have been accumulated between noble officers and civilian soldiers. Although they also lack training and equipment, they still have enough advantages.
This advantage expanded even further in the battle with the wind, and they defeated 20,000 Transylvanian troops in a daze.
Schauporai should first use his troops to fight a few low-intensity battles in Transylvania, where there were many nobles who still did not accept his authority, although he had become a Transylvanian since 111
Governor Vanya became the brother-in-law of the King of Poland, but some nobles always relied on their connections with the Buda Center to reject his authority. Of course, this action was more or less supported by King Louis.
Although the Shauporai family is deeply rooted and provided key support at the critical moment when the Yaglonni family was fighting for the throne, the two parties have always maintained a subtle and close half-alliance and half-subordinate relationship, but the power struggle is still inevitable.
of
After this defeat, these rebels will be more emboldened, which will undoubtedly become Austria's advantage.
"Aha, have you seen it, old friend, we defeated 20,000 enemy troops and 20,000 people?" When Jones entered the governor's mansion in Pest again, he greeted the Hohenzollern Governor in a very emotional mood,
"Thank you, my friend, your support is so timely."
It was the most glorious day of his career, a victory that was entirely his, Artemis Jones's.
But he found that his ally and old friend was in a bad mood. Although he reluctantly congratulated him on his victory, he refused his hug.
His face was gray and very, very depressed
Jones was surprised when he saw the Hohenzollern magistrate's entourage dressing a corpse in mourning clothes.
Weidenfeller, who had separated last night, has returned to Pest, but he just came back lying down.
