Holy Roman Empire

Just after stepping out of the desert, the 8th Division of the Uprising Army was approaching the city of Ugsul. Before the attack was launched, the turbulent Nile waters were ushered in.

Fortunately, it is far away from the Aswan Dam, the floods have long scattered everywhere, and although the downstream water level has risen, it has not reached the point of flooding the city.

Looking at the endless stream of the Nile, Lieutenant Colonel Hutier sighed: "Order the troops to be stationed on the spot, take a full day off, and send scouts to figure out what happened upstream as soon as possible."

Although he didn't know exactly what happened, Hutier knew that this must be related to the lieutenant general Geret.

Faginham: "It can be seen from the water level that the uprising army blew up the Aswan dam, but it does not know the outcome.

If we can invade the French army, then sending us secretly to sneak in, is not just to pretend to be Ugsul."

All the people present were elites in the Austrian army, and the situation on the battlefield could not be concealed from everyone's eyes.

The command given to the Eighth Division by the headquarters of the rebel army was to sneak in secretly, pretend to attack Ugsul to attract the main force of the French army to give back, and buy time for the rebel army.

Speaking of infiltrating, in fact, troops of nearly 10,000 troops marched, it is impossible to erase all traces.

At the beginning, Hutier and others were ready to be ambushed by the French. They were cautious along the way and even detoured from the desert.

However, it turned out that they thought too much, the French did not take them seriously.

Think about it, there are still a lot of tribes in Egypt this year. Although tribal fighting between thousands of people is rare, it is not without.

The Eighth Division was originally a Caotai team, and the march was arrogant, not even a uniform, and it looked like there were more civilians than soldiers.

So far as the city of Ugsul fell, the French did not react.If the march was not too tiring, Hutil would have taken the opportunity to attack the city.

Of course, this can only be considered.The eighth division is not even a good thing. If it were ordered to siege at this time, no one could guarantee that the gang of Ugly would do anything.

Sternhausen said with a sullen face: "From the current situation, perhaps we have all underestimated Jarrett, he is not so idiotic on the surface.

Ugsul lies in the middle of the Nile, and the logistics of the French army must be transferred from here.Once we launch an attack, the French will inevitably return.

If the fighting is not going well in Aswan, we are the abandoned sons who attracted the firepower of the French army and bought time for the relocation of the main force of the rebel army.

If this flood of water comes into play and the rebel army wins, we are on the way to the withdrawal of the French army.

In the heyday of the French army, we certainly could not stop it, but the defeated French army was different.

Not to mention annihilating them, you can still do it by bullying the soldiers.After we stopped here, we might be able to leave most of the French troops."

When he first fled, he was taught a lesson by the "waste" that he looked down upon.For these young officers, the blow is really a bit big.

The atmosphere inside the tent was suddenly suppressed, and the older Hutier first reacted: "Okay, no more guesswork.

Sending us here is to learn a lesson. These things can't be learned in school. No one will treat it as one thing without firsthand experience.

No matter what plan Jarrett has, the choice is up to us.Whether to follow the plan depends on whether it is consistent with our task."

Consolation, does not exist.The soldiers are not so fragile. If they can't stand a little bit of attack, then go home early. Those who are not strong enough are not suitable for entering the army.

After recovering, Major Potiorec smiled and said: "The Lieutenant Colonel is right, we are here to learn.

If a British lieutenant general is seen through by us so easily, then the world is too simple.

By the way, did you find that Ugsur's situation is a bit wrong?

It is said that the defenders in the city have two garrison regiments, and one regiment is entirely composed of Frenchmen.They did not take advantage of our unsettled position and sent troops to attack us."

Don't say don't know, Major Boteolek mentioned it and everyone responded.

There are more than 4,000 people in the two garrison regiments, half of them are French. In the face of twice the number of indigenous rebels, let alone send troops to attack, the French will not counsel even if they fight head-on.

However, the defenders in the city nested in the city and did nothing.Can't say they are peace-loving and can't bear to kill?

You do n’t need to send the door to the door. Either the defense officers in the city are flooding their brains; or the defense forces in the city are not enough to dare to go out to fight.

Fackingham: "It is very likely that when Adolf passed by, he took away the defenders in the city and now Ugsul is an empty city.

Tomorrow we can try it out. If it is an empty city, then take the city and cut off the logistics of the French army."

Do n’t ask why it ’s tomorrow, not today. The question is that everyone is in a bad mood today and does n’t want to attack the city.

No way, the eighth division is also a group of old soldiers.The time taken by Hutier and others is too short, and it is already very difficult to be able to barely enforce the prohibition.

It is impossible for everyone to fight with their exhausted bodies.This has been proven during the march. As long as the strength of the march is increased, deserters will appear.

The combat effectiveness is not so good, all the empty shelves supported by the crowd, if the advantage of "many people" is gone, how scary?

You know, everyone is here to destroy.It is impossible to rely on such a few people to sweep Egypt.

This requires the expansion of the "insurgent army". According to the Eastern classic rebellion cases learned, everyone unanimously reached the conclusion that the most effective method is none other than-Dangliou.

Throwing hundreds of thousands of people and eating all the way, it is a mess.The destructive power is much greater than direct burning and looting.

As the so-called many people are powerful, there are so many people to cover, and once the momentum is wrong, it is easy to hide when you drop the big troops and run.

Although the eighth division was a little waste, it was the seed of the raiders, and every soldier was a future leader, and he could not give up easily.

...

In the city of Ugsul, the mayor of Guxole is greeting the family of Governor Adolf at this moment, and he has completely forgotten who was the one who insisted on forcing the armies of the past.

The enemy soldiers approached the city, and the defenders went out again. The upper-class figures of Ugsur City panicked.

The butchers of the rebels don't recognize people. Once the city of Ugsul is broken, one of them, one of them, should be counted. Don't think about it well.

The rich, whose roots are not here, have already abandoned many cities and fled.As long as there is a horse, most of the two-legged rebels outside the city cannot catch up with them.

The police are in force when the army is not there. Police Chief Anthony: "Mr. Mayor, we have issued a notice calling for the young and strong to defend the city.

But this is far from enough. The rebels outside the city have as many divisions as we can't stop for long."

Although Ugsul is a colony, it is also an inland heart city. It has been controlled by the French for more than 20 years, and it has long been peaceful.

Affected by this, the value of the force in the city has also dropped significantly.The originally sturdy colonial team has now become a company and started a formal business.

At most, they raise dozens of younger brothers, who are responsible for watching the show.Hundreds and thousands of armed teams have long become history.

On the territory of the Egyptians, there is no accident. Ugsul is still the majority of Egyptians, and there are so many 800 French people.

In normal years, Ugsur's garrison army is also a battalion.The two regiments were looted by the rebels before they were put together temporarily.

Once together, it would be unbearable to visit Ugsur again.The recruitment of young and strong guarding cities is actually the majority of Egyptians, and the number of French is very limited.

As colonists, now they not only have to defend the city, but also to guard against the Egyptian people in the city and to cooperate with the rebels outside the city.

The mayor of Gullyola rubbed his forehead and said: "I have sent a telegram for help. It may be that the frontline has changed. Governor Adolf did not call back immediately.

However, you can rest assured that I have also sent a telegram of assistance to the cities of Kina, Gilja, and Alhemim in the rear, and reinforcements will arrive in a week."

This is the most optimistic estimate a week. Now that the Governor is unable to reach the front line, no one is in the middle, and it is an unknown number of cities that are not affiliated with each other.

It is true to watch each other, but people are selfish, and the bureaucrats are among the best.Before rescuing Ugsul, everyone must first think of their own safety.

Especially in the nearest Kina area, where the two places are less than 100 kilometers apart, they may also be threatened by rebels.

The reinforcements that could have arrived the soonest are estimated to wait for the later reinforcements to arrive and ensure that their own safety is guaranteed before they can actually send troops.

While everyone was doing military deployment, a reporter suddenly broke in: "Mr. Mayor, Esna sent an urgent call."

Gu Xiaolai frowned, and took the telegram with a strong dissatisfaction.When I opened it, my face paled instantly, and the whole person lost energy.

Anthony's eyes were fast, and he promptly helped Gu Orle, who had evacuated his full strength, to sit on the chair and told the attendant: "Call the doctor."

Sit down and take a sigh of relief. The old Gucci Ole waved to stop: "No, I'm fine.

I was just frightened by the bad news on the front line. It will be fine after a while."

Hearing this answer, everyone's expression was also tense.As the rebel soldiers approached the city, Guxu Ole just frowned, and did not panic.

One news can scare the well-informed Mr. Mayor into this way. It is certainly not bad news in general.

Police Chief Anthony hurriedly asked, "Mr. Mayor, what happened?"
