I watched Er Chuang’s short video, and everything went numb!

The key issue is: supplies.

If we bypass the main road and take a small road, what will happen to the army's logistical supplies?

Because although the march on the small road is more concealed, it means that the difficulty of logistical supply will be greatly increased.

And Napoleon led his army to fight abroad, which made supplies even more difficult. so.

How to solve this problem?

Li Shimin started thinking while looking at the giant screen in the sky.

……

【But what about the supply line?】

【Napoleon said: No more】

【He split the large field legion into smaller military-level units to act independently】

【In this way, the supply pressure of each army will be greatly reduced. Each battle will bring a full 10-day share. All weapons and ammunition will be captured, and the food and grass supply will be solved on the spot.】

【Under the guidance of this tactical thought, the bastion that had troubled European armies for three hundred years was directly reduced to a decoration.】

【It was also from this period that offense overwhelmed defense, limited war was wasted on general war, and a new era of war was about to arrive.】

……

"Divide the troops"

"War feeds war."

Two thoughts flashed through the minds of many famous generals in the past dynasties.

These two tactical ideas are nothing new in China.

There have been many cases in the history of Chinese wars.

And they also knew very well that splitting their forces to attack would not only The commander is required to have strong control over the overall situation of the battlefield, and the leader of each team must have strong flexibility and ability to grasp fighter opportunities.

Because the transmission of battlefield information takes time.

Each team They are all waiting for orders from the commander-in-chief of the army before taking action.

It is undoubtedly unrealistic.

"It seems that Napoleon is very confident in his generals."

The famous generals of the past dynasties continued to look at the giant screen in the sky, looking forward to the subsequent war situation.

……

【In April 1796, the French vanguard encountered the Austrian army at Montenotte.】

【Two days later, Massena led his troops to quickly detour back to the Austrian army, forcing the Austrian army to retreat and killing 3,000 people in the pursuit.】

【From now on, this scene will be repeated】

【The Austro-Saharan coalition could not catch up with the outflanking speed of the French army, and their painstakingly constructed defense line was completely ignored by Napoleon.】

【After losing another 6,000 men, the coalition retreated north】

【At this time, differences broke out among the coalition forces. The Austrian army wanted to withdraw to its big city Milan, and the Sardinian army wanted to protect its capital Turin.】

【The two sides parted ways, giving the French a chance to defeat them one by one.】

【Napoleon decided to attack the weakest Kingdom of Sardinia first.】

【On April 20, the French army decisively defeated the Sardinian army of 50,000 troops in the Battle of Mondovi with 36,000 troops, forcing them to cede territory and pay indemnities and withdraw from the war.】

【After that, Napoleon continued to lead his army to attack Milan.】

【In the Battle of Lodi, the French army faced the bridgehead guarded by the Austrian army with heavy artillery. They rushed forward and risked their lives to break through the Austrian defense line!】

【According to Napoleon's recollection, it was during this battle that he felt his influence and began to consider using this influence to complete a larger mission.】

……

Listen to the narration of the high-altitude giant screen video, and watch the video clips on the high-altitude giant screen being mixed and edited.

Li Shimin's eyes showed appreciation.

Napoleon admired Napoleon's superb command of the army and his strong grasp of the overall situation on the battlefield.

……

【Five days after the Battle of Lodi, Milan surrendered】

【The richest city in Northern Italy fell into the hands of the French】

【Next, Napoleon sent his troops south again, fighting all the way to Vatican Gansu.】

【Wherever he went, nobles and churches"donated" one after another, and even Pope Pius VI had to donate generously to the French army.】

【This huge amount of money not only allowed Napoleon to fulfill the glory and wealth he promised to his soldiers, but also saved the Gallic Directory's financial crisis. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Contain, but kill indiscriminately!"

"The highlight moment of the French army!"

"The 12-pounder gun assisted the noble church in generosity"

"Pope: How many divisions do you have?"

"……"

The plane of Ming Taizu.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed:

"This man made a great contribution to the Gaul Kingdom."

His evaluation is not only because of Napoleon's successive victories on the battlefield, but also because the huge wealth captured by Napoleon can stabilize the domestic situation of the Gallic Chicken Country. The core contradiction of various civil strife in the Gallic Chicken Country is, to put it bluntly, the government Lack of money cannot solve various problems.

But as long as there is enough money, many problems can be easily solved.

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Biao also said with emotion:

"It’s true that heroes emerge from troubled times"

"Boss, you are only half right. Only those with sufficient abilities can become heroes in troubled times."

Zhu Yuanzhang replied.

He is a person who has truly experienced troubled times.

Heroes emerge from troubled times, but more people are afraid that it is difficult to even survive.

……

【On June 4, 1796, the French army surrounded the Austrian military town of Mantua in Northern Italy.】

【Relying on siege and reinforcements, Napoleon wiped out tens of thousands of Austrian troops】

【The following year, the French army marched towards Vienna unhindered】

【Finally, in Leoben, 100 kilometers away from Vienna, Austria's letter of surrender was received.】

【At this time, the French army's northern front on the Rhine was on the verge of collapse.】

【But no one thought that Napoleon could create such a miracle with an unpopular division on the southern front.】

【In one year, he wiped out hundreds of thousands of Austrian troops, occupied the entire Northern Italy, saved the fragile finances of the Gallic Kingdom, and crushed the invasion of the first anti-French alliance.】

【Any of the above achievements is enough to make a person famous, but they happened to the 28-year-old Napoleon at the same time, making him a well-known hero in France. 】

The barrage flew out:

"The so-called containment of a partial division is to lead the army to attack Vienna. (dog head)"

"A man from heaven!"

"Trivia: The prototype of Reinhardt in Heroes of the Galaxy is the emperor"

"Alexander the Great: Young man, you are now on the same level as me."

"You're only 28 years old, you're so strong, you're invincible"

"This is the Gallic chicken country version of Li Er, who became famous at a young age, made a fortune in the military and became emperor."

"……"

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin smiled slightly.

This Napoleon's experience is indeed somewhat similar to his.

Behind Li Shimin.

The officials of the Tang Dynasty looked at this barrage in the sky and were stunned for a moment. Then they thought about it carefully and found that it did make some sense.

The same time happened to be in troubled times, the same young people became famous, and the same made great achievements on the battlefield.

In the end, he also became the emperor. but.

If calculated according to age, their majesties are undoubtedly better.

Twenty-eight-year-old Napoleon had just achieved great success.

And the twenty-eight-year-old Li Shimin had already ascended the throne and became the emperor.

Li Shimin was much younger when he led his army to conquer all the heroes in the world.

In the hearts of the officials of the Tang Dynasty, their Majesty was naturally the most powerful.

……

【On December 5, 1797, Napoleon returned to Paris】

【At this time, all European countries had signed contracts with the Gallic Kingdom. Only the Kingdom of Gallic, led by the then Prime Minister William Pitt, continued to fight against France.】

【To this end, Napoleon applied to the Directory to lead an expeditionary force to Egypt to open a shipping lane to India and force the country on which the sun never sets to make concessions.】

【This crazy idea actually has no feasibility, because whether it is in the Mediterranean or the Indian Ocean, sea control is firmly controlled by the country where the sun never sets.】

【But the Directory agreed to his request almost without hesitation, because Napoleon's influence had threatened the existence of the Directory.】

【If they could, they would love to send Napoleon to the moon】

……

"The master is shocked by his high achievements."

These four words have emerged in the minds of many ancients throughout the dynasties.

Even in many dynasties, many emperors understood the ideas of the Gallic Rooster Directory.

……

【On May 19, 1798, Napoleon led 30,000 French troops and set sail from the port of Toulon.】

【At this time, he was already the most popular general in the Gallic military circles.】

【Countless elite soldiers came to join him, and many officers would rather be demoted than join his command.】

【In addition to his old subordinates Berthier and Murat, this time, there are two new generals joining his expeditionary army.】

【They were the later"Flower of Marengo" Desai and the"Iron Marshal" Davout】

……

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

The famous generals of the Tang Dynasty looked at the huge screen in the sky and could understand the thoughts of these officers of the Gallic Kingdom.

The strong in the army are respected.

Only the truly strong can be truly admired and followed by others.

Which of these people is not a leader in the army?

In the troubled times when all the heroes came together, they were finally willing to follow Li Shimin, not just because Li Shimin's side was powerful.

The more important reason is because Li Shimin is stronger than them all.

Only then did they join Li Shimin's army with sincerity.

……

【On July 2, the French army arrived in Alexandria and then marched on Cairo】

【On July 20, the French army and the Mamluk cavalry encountered each other under the pyramid.】

【Napoleon personally went to the front line to boost morale and said the very famous sentence: Soldiers, forty centuries of human history are watching you from the top of the pyramid!】

【The morale of the French army was greatly shaken for a while, and the cry was loud.】

【There's not much to say about the battle itself】

【Facing the hollow square formation of the French infantry, the powerful charge of the French cavalry, the intensive firepower of the French artillery, the Mamluk cavalry, which was still fighting with cold weapons, collapsed at the first touch.】

【After leaving thousands of corpses behind, they fled the battlefield. 】

The barrage flew out:

"The Mamluk cavalry, which has been rampant for thousands of years, has disappeared since then."

"The end of the feudal cavalry"

"The crushing of hot weapons against cold weapons"

"No, I remember that the Mamluk cavalry were equipped with firearms at this time." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Reply - The Mamluks' equipment is actually not bad, but their tactical thinking is too backward."

"Reply - It means using the best equipment to fight the most primitive battle"

"……"

The plane of the Great Ming Dynasty's ancestors.

Zhu Di looked at it very seriously.

Comparatively speaking, the weapons and equipment of the Daming Shenji Battalion are relatively close to those of the Gallic Army at the moment.

He felt that at least it might be developed by Daming in the future.

Unlike those weapons such as aircraft and missiles in later generations, it is completely impossible for the Ming Dynasty to develop them.

Therefore.

At this time, Napoleon commanded the Gallic army to annihilate the Mamluk cavalry tactics. He felt that he could learn from them.

……

【Five days later, Napoleon led his army into Cairo, but his expedition ended there.】

【Because in the north, the famous naval admiral Nelson of the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets completely annihilated the Gallic Kingdom fleet in the Battle of Aboukir.】

【Now, they are completely alone】[]

【You know, Egypt is not interested in profit.】

【There are not enough arsenals here to produce the ordnance the troops need.】

【Their ammunition was always missing after each round. In the most embarrassing moments, the artillerymen even risked their lives to pick up the shells and fire them again.】

【But even so, the French army fought all the way from Egypt to Syria despite the harsh conditions.】

……

The plane of Ming Taizu.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head slightly: The end of the strong crossbow.

Without logistical material support, especially firearms and ammunition, no matter how powerful Napoleon was, he would not be able to fight with this lone army for a long time.

In his view, it was only a matter of time before the troops were withdrawn.

……

【In May 1799, the French army encountered a fierce sniper attack by the Ottoman army and the Sun Never Sets gunboats under the city of Acre, losing 5,000 people and severely weakening their vitality.】

【No more large-scale battles can be launched from now on】

【At this moment, the British army"thoughtfully" sent a newspaper to Napoleon, which stated that the second anti-French alliance was officially formed.】

【This time, little Pete found a heavyweight supporter for the country where the sun never sets: the Czar of the Bear Country.】

【The Russian army, led by the 69-year-old veteran Suvorov, swept across Italy and completely drove the French army back north of the Alps.】

【Today, the anti-French alliance's army is heading straight towards the homeland of the Gallic Kingdom.】

【In the end, Napoleon made the decision to secretly set off back to China in October.】

【The abandoned Gallic Expeditionary Force persisted in fighting for two full years in a desperate situation. It was not until they ran out of ammunition and food that they announced their surrender.】

……

"this……"

Many ancient people in the past dynasties were stunned when they saw this.

Napoleon's behavior made them find it difficult to criticize.

As the commander-in-chief of an army, many ancient people felt that Napoleon did not do it very authentically, leaving his army behind and leaving alone.

In particular, many military generals throughout the dynasties were disgusted with this behavior. but.

In the eyes of other ancients, those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters.

Napoleon must have returned home at this time because he could gain greater benefits.

……

【On October 9, 1799, Napoleon returned to Paris and was warmly welcomed by the Paris citizens.】

【Everyone hopes that he can turn the tide again and save the Gallic Chicken Country】

【On November 9, with the support of the army, Napoleon deposed the Directory and formally took over all administrative affairs of the Republic. This was known as the Coup of Brumaire in history.】

【The next day, Murat led his troops to take control of the Parliament and dissolved it.】

【Soon after, the Gallic Kingdom promulgated a new constitution, and Napoleon obtained the first ruling status granted by the constitution. He could promulgate laws and appoint and remove ministers, diplomatic ambassadors, and senior generals at will.】

【Subsequently, he abolished the autonomous institutions in various places, making the Gallic Kingdom a highly centralized country again.】

【In fact, Napoleon had gained absolute power that far exceeded that of previous feudal monarchs.】

【Later, his coronation ceremony at Notre Dame de Paris seemed like a belated posthumous recognition.】

……

"So easy?"

Many ancient people in the past dynasties were astonished.

A man could return home alone and then seize power with the support of the army?

Isn't it all too easy?

In the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao nodded slightly:"As expected."

He knew that Napoleon would not return home secretly for no reason, there must be a bigger intention.

"This person's timing can be described as precise, and he is worthy of being a famous general."

Cao Cao praised again in his heart.

Of course.

He was still very clear in his heart.

Napoleon's process of seizing power seemed easy and easy, but in fact it was because Napoleon had already proved himself with his brilliant achievements and had gained the trust and trust of the army before. support

……

【In 1800, after the Coup of Brumaire, Napoleon led an expedition to Italy and defeated the Austrian army again in Marengo, forcing it to sign the Treaty of Luneville. The second anti-French alliance collapsed.】

【In 1802, Britain and France signed the Treaty of Amiens, officially truce】

【In the Second Anti-French Alliance War, the Gallic Kingdom won again】

【Napoleon once again saved the Gallic chicken country】

……

See here.

Many ancient people throughout the dynasties once again admired Napoleon's outstanding military capabilities.

……

【The Coup of Brumaire is also recognized in Gallic academic circles as a sign of the end of the Gallic Revolution.】

【This is also a situation that no one could have imagined when this revolution began.】

【So why did the Gallic Revolution, which aimed at overthrowing the monarchy, end with Napoleon proclaiming himself emperor? people】.
