In the era of cold weapons and early hot weapons, cavalry has always been the dominant group of troops on the battlefield. When the cavalry in the cluster launched a charge together, the picture of iron and blood was undoubtedly an epic!
Compared with the French cavalry, although Samaran's subordinates looked more appropriate, they were undoubtedly slightly inferior to the French cavalry in terms of combat effectiveness. In addition, the French cavalry's attack method was even more suicidal to many British people.
The cavalry was filled with coldness.
When the breastplate cavalry of a regiment of French cavalry killed the formation of the British cavalry center, the British cavalry were immediately divided into two halves by the French, and anxiously Samaran shouted:
"Go closer to me, hurry up! Go closer to me!"
A shout seemed a bit insignificant compared to the noisy shouts and killing sounds on the entire battlefield, but it was enough to make the nearly 100 people around Samaran hear it clearly. Unfortunately, among these nearly 100 people,
There were a few French cavalry that had just approached.
"The enemy's commander is the bearded man, everyone will rush forward!"
Although Samaran's flag was always raised by his guards, out of the thought of protecting the commander, Samaran's outfit was almost the same as the guards around him, except for the slightest difference on his sleeves, but in this way
It is naturally difficult to identify his true identity under the circumstances.
But now Samalan's shout undoubtedly revealed his position. What's worse is that with the shouts of the French cavalry, the more French cavalry rushed towards Samalan, and their posture was natural
He also worked even harder.
Soon, Mana got the news, and then saw Mana shouting to everyone around him:
"Everyone attacks me at the position of the enemy commander, and let the cavalry of the third squadron go around the rear there. We must never let the enemy generals escape!"
With Mana's order issued, many French cavalry gave up the enemy in front of them and turned to Samaran's position to attack.
British officers were also trying to reorganize their troops and try to rescue Samaran. However, as Samaran's situation became more and more unfavorable, the morale of the British army had dropped by more than half. Many British cavalry became a little unknown
As he was at a loss, the chaotic situation on the battlefield made these British cavalry who had not experienced the war unable to implement the military orders quickly like the French cavalry.
Several French cavalry had rushed to Samaran, and Samaran naturally saw the ecstasy and ferocious expressions on the faces of these French cavalry.
"No, I can't die here. I am a nobleman of the empire. My future is bright. I must not fall here!"
With this idea in mind, Samaran tried his best to hold his sabre and swung it towards a French cavalry diagonally opposite.
Samaran was the commander of the 15th British Cavalry Division. Before the British Expeditionary Force set foot on the Netherlands, the main garrison of the 15th Cavalry Division was to suppress the indigenous rebellion forces there in the West Indies.
It can be said that the 15th Cavalry Division is one of the few cavalry divisions in the British army that has experienced many battles, but even so, the top army among the British cavalry is still quite different from the cavalry of the first-class European powers.
As the commander of the 15th Cavalry Division, Samaran was also a British army that was famous for its strict hierarchy and enjoyed life. How much combat effectiveness could Samaran, who was in the upper class, have?
Seizing this opportunity, he swung the saber hard toward Samaran's neck.
"Farewell, this world!"
This was the last sentence Samaran wanted to say before closing his eyes. But in the end, this sentence was still unable to be said.
After Samaran's death, huge cheers erupted among the French cavalry, and the flag that had been held tightly by Samaran's guards was also cut down by the French cavalry shortly after Samaran's death.
Then, running wildly without caring about horsepower seemed to have become what the remaining British cavalry could do now.
Samaran, with the rank of major general and commander of the 15th Cavalry Division of the British Army, became the first senior general to be killed in the British Expeditionary Force!
After reaching the British army, his mission was completed.
"Retreat, retreat to Beveren!"
Mana shouted with confidence, and then retreated towards Beverren by the very tired but excited French cavalrymen.
"What did you say! Samaran is dead?"
Although the news was obtained from the British cavalry who fled and confirmed, Mana still couldn't believe it.
Samaran is not just a major general. If it were simple, Samaran would never serve as the important position of commander of the 15th Cavalry Division. Samaran's full name is Samaran Waopol, who comes from Waopol, the British political world.
The Er family.
Speaking of the Walpole family, we have to mention Sir Robert Walpole, who was not only the ancestor of the Walpole family, but also the first prime minister in British history recognized in later generations. From 1730 to 1742, the twelve years.
, This Jazz held the real power of the entire British Empire government.
Although Sir Robert had passed away in 1745, as a political family, the Walpole family did not disappear into the upper class of the British society with the death of the Sir. As an important part of the Whig Party and its main supporter, Walpole
The family still has considerable energy and also occupies an important part of the British political territory.
And Samaran is the first successor to the Walpole family generation.
Ralph wanted to curse, but what he needed to consider most at the moment was not the adverse impact that Samaran's death might have on him, but the disastrous defeat of the 15th Cavalry Division had shaken the morale of the entire British army.
When Ralph learned that although the 15th Cavalry Division was defeated, the French cavalry unit was also severely damaged. At the same time, he retreated to the Beverren area, and the cruel Ralph decided to lead the army to rest for a night.
Heading to the Beverren area immediately!
After appointing a staff officer, Colonel John Moore, whom he usually values, to take over the 15th Cavalry Division, Ralph turned his eyes to the map on the table, which was the division of the Austrian Netherlands region.
Detailed pictures.
Born in 1761, John is only thirty-one years old this year, but his age does not prevent John from showing his talent. In Ralph's staff, John's glory has never been concealed, and many times, Ralph will
Directly influenced by John.
After the Battle of Reht, the strength of the British 15th Cavalry Division dropped from the original 4,600 to more than 1,100, but all this was still worth looking forward to for John.
The staff officer and the chief officer will never be the same. Even if the talented staff officer is always covered up by the chief officer. Even if the supervisor adopts his opinion and wins the war, he is known as a hero.
The leaders who led the army themselves were still the ones.
So when everyone envies Ralph for trusting John and appreciates John very much, only John himself knew in his heart how much he envied the generals who led the army to fight on the front line, even those regiment leaders seemed to John.
The goal you envy.
There were only more than a thousand men left in the 15th Cavalry Division, which was not important in John's opinion. With a special relationship with Ralph, John believed that he would be supplemented in the shortest time.
You should know that on the battlefield, to see if the troops are valued by the commander, the most important indicator is whether the generals of the troops are trusted by the commander. Only those troops commanded by the generals valued and trusted by the commander are the most able to obtain
Replenish troops in a timely manner.
All we can say is that factions are everywhere!
The 15th Cavalry Division had no resistance to John, the new division commander. Or the 15th Cavalry Division, who had just experienced defeat, was now immersed in sadness and lamentation. No one would go to the new division commander.
I feel curious or close.

After leading the army to the front line, William met with Dessau immediately.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for you to come to the front line in person. It's really a dereliction of duty for the minister!"
"Marson Dessau, you, I, the king and the minister, needless to say, everyone understands the significance of this war to us, so our first priority is to do our best for this war, and now that I have come here
Here, it is also for this goal, so you don’t need to be under pressure, you are the only commander here, and what I need is to help you inspire the morale of my Prussian soldiers!”
When Dessau heard William say this, he felt relieved and felt a little ashamed of his previous thoughts.
Dessau had thought about the command after William's arrival many times before William arrived. In Dessau's opinion, William was indeed very outstanding, but William did not experience many wars. War was not a piece of paper. Last time William led the army.
The victory of the PASAC war does not show how high William has achieved in the war.
You should know that in the long river of history, there are countless geniuses, but only a small number of people laughed to the end, while others died. Part of the reason is that the so-called genius does exist, but most of them
However, geniuses were all flashing inspiration at a certain time, and Jiang Lang Cai just said this!
