Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland
Chapter 696: The Battle of the Three Emperors! The Sun of Austerlitz!
Outside the sky at this time.
Late Han Dynasty.
Zhang Jue saw the world-famous painting of Napoleon's coronation.
I'm also a little depressed.
Before this, Zhang Jue had witnessed the grandeur of the French Revolution.
Although there was a lot of killing.
But the revolutionary ideal was to abolish the king and let the people be the masters.
It suits Zhang Jue's taste very well.
But now we see that the Revolution began with the abolition of the king, but ended with the coronation of the emperor.
This reversal was really hard for Zhang Jue to accept.
"What's this called?"
Zhang Jue couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Those French people tried their best to overthrow the king, thinking they could usher in a new life, but what was the result?"
"It's the same old story, with a new emperor."
"I thought that once the old order was broken, we would usher in true peace. I didn't expect that power is like a whirlpool. No matter how hard you struggle, you will eventually be sucked in."
"Napoleon couldn't resist the temptation to become emperor in the end."
"Napoleon at this time, is he betraying the revolution?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Jue felt mixed emotions.
Somewhat disappointed.
And on the sky.
【Externally, the hostility of the European conservative powers towards France has never diminished since the outbreak of the Great Revolution.】
[A new anti-French alliance has assembled once again. ]
[British Prime Minister William Pitt joined forces with Russian Tsar Alexander I and Austrian Emperor Francis II to form the Third Anti-French Alliance in an attempt to curb Napoleon's expansion.]
【Napoleon originally planned to cross the sea and conquer Britain. 】
【But the disastrous defeat at the Battle of Trafalgar severely damaged the French Navy.】
[So Napoleon turned to concentrate his army to fight against the Russian-Austrian coalition.]
[Also in this year.]
[Napoleon faced the pinnacle of his military career - the Battle of Austerlitz, also known as the "Battle of the Three Emperors." ]
【After the war started. 】
[In August 1805, the main force of the Austrian army, led by Mark von Leberich, entered Ulm, Bavaria, attempting to join forces with the Russian army.]
[Napoleon led his army to march into Germany in 20 days with amazing mobility.]
【The encirclement of Ulm was completed on October 10.】
【Forced 3 Austrian troops to surrender. 】
[The French army then occupied Vienna without a fight.]
【But the war situation was not optimistic for Napoleon at this time. 】
[Prussia's attitude is ambiguous and it may join the anti-French alliance at any time and deal a fatal blow to France from behind.]
[After the remnants of the Russian and Austrian forces joined forces with the reinforcements led by the Tsar himself, their strength reached 8.6, including the Tsar's most elite Russian Guards.]
[Napoleon was left with only 7.3 exhausted troops.]
[And the logistical supply lines are long and fragile.]
【However, Napoleon was not intimidated by these difficulties. 】
【He staged the most brilliant strategic maneuver in military history. 】
[20 troops marched 500 kilometers from the Brun camp and suddenly appeared on the Danube front at a speed of 40 kilometers a day.]
【Using mobile marches, we have the power to choose the battlefield. 】
[Napoleon chose the battlefield around the Pratzen Heights near the village of Austerlitz. ]
[The two sides in this battle were the French army led by Napoleon. ]
[The other side was the Russian-Austrian coalition led by Tsar Alexander I and Holy Roman Emperor Francis II.]
[December 1805, 12, in the morning fog at the Austerlitz battlefield.]
[Napoleon deliberately showed weakness and gave up the Pratzen Heights. ]
[The southern wing of the French position relied on the Goldbach River and the ice lake, and the northern wing concealed the main force, forming a "pocket" formation. ]
[Napoleon sent envoys to pretend to ask for peace, and forged newspapers about the Paris riots to create the illusion that the French army was "at the end of its rope."]
[Lure the enemy commander and make him lose his mind in the temptation to defeat the legendary Emperor Napoleon.]
[Napoleon's method really worked. ]
[The veteran general Kutuzov advocated retreating and waiting for Prussian reinforcements, but was denounced as a coward and sidelined.]
[Tsar Alexander and Austrian Emperor Francis II were eager to avenge their humiliation and advocated taking advantage of the French army's fatigue to launch an offensive.]
【As the battle begins. 】
[The 1 French troops on the southern wing fought and retreated, luring the main force of the Russian-Austrian coalition to leave the Pratzen Heights and lure them to the ice lake and swamps.]
[Just when the main force of the coalition forces left the high ground. ]
[Napoleon decisively commanded the elite French troops, Soult's Fourth Army, to raid the high ground and occupied this commanding height after four tug-of-war battles.]
【Then, the French army launched a fierce attack on the coalition forces from a high position.】
[French artillery bombarded the Allied flanks from the heights.]
[The French Guard Cavalry charges.]
[The coalition army was cut into two parts, so that they could not take care of each other. ]
[Under the fierce attack of the French army, the Russian and Austrian armies instantly fell into chaos and fled in defeat.]
[When the Allied soldiers tried to escape from the frozen lake, Napoleon ordered the bombardment of the ice.]
[The bombardment of the frozen lake caused the elite Russian Guards to fall into the ice and die...]
[The Battle of Austerlitz is a perfect display of Napoleon's military art. ]
[In this battle, the French army defeated the Russian-Austrian coalition with a smaller force, killing 9000 enemies at the cost of 3.6 casualties.] [Austria signed the Treaty of Pressburg and ceded one-sixth of its territory.]
[Francis II gave up the title of "Holy Roman Emperor", and the Holy Roman Empire, which had lasted for 844 years, was declared dissolved. ]
【Austria's power was greatly weakened.】
【Tsar Alexander I returned in disgrace. 】
[Prussia, which originally planned to declare war on France, also turned to congratulate Napoleon on his great victory.]
[After this battle, Napoleon's fame spread throughout Europe, and France became the undisputed overlord of the European continent.]
[In the whole of Western Europe and Central Europe, there is no other force that can compete with it except Britain on the island. ]
[Napoleon himself also reached the peak of his power and glory! ]
The sky screen video ends here.
The comments were full of praise for Napoleon's peak battle.
The Sun of Austerlitz!
The Battle of Austerlitz can be regarded as the most representative masterpiece of Emperor Napoleon.
"The micromanagement is so good, it's like turning on the God's perspective. I can't play the battle so smoothly."
"The maneuverability is too strong. First destroy the Austrian main force, then march quickly to destroy the Russian-Austrian coalition forces."
"Who still remembers that it was Britain that organized the anti-French alliance?"
"Haha, I don't even ally with Britain when I play Europa Universalis!"
"In fact, there is nothing wrong with the coalition's strategy. The morale of the French army is too high."
"A small number of French troops on the flanks were able to withstand the main attack of the Russian-Austrian coalition forces."
"The French army may seem to be at a disadvantage in terms of manpower, but in fact, their per capita output is high and their quality is extremely high."
"Davout's southern line is too strong!"
《The old French guards are indeed all humanoid Gundams.》
"If it had been Kutuzov, the battle would not have been fought at all, and Napoleon might have been forced to withdraw his troops."
"Because the old fox Kutuzov knows that the gap in strength between the two sides makes it impossible to fight!"
"Indeed, the French army's victory in this battle was already determined during training. The choice of the coalition forces only changed the way they were defeated."
《Shinra is disbanded! Good grief!》
《The Spirit Luo is furious! 》
"What's so infuriating about this? And the mental state is outrageous!"
"Napoleon's biggest problem was that there were endless wars. It was useless for Napoleon to win Waterloo."
"Yes, in 1814, Napoleon's 3 troops chased the -strong anti-French coalition army and fought against them, putting out fires with extreme force throughout the process."
"But the coalition forces said: If I can't beat you, Napoleon can't beat your men?"
While netizens were discussing.
The ancients also had a lot of discussions about it.
Qin Dynasty.
Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng looked at Napoleon's rise in the sky, and his heart was filled with waves.
Thinking back to the past, I used the remaining strength of six generations to wield the long-term strategy to rule the world and sweep across the six kingdoms. How majestic I was.
And this Napoleon on the sky.
From being unknown to dominating the European continent, the Battle of Austerlitz was a great achievement in which the outnumbered army defeated the larger one, fully demonstrating their great talent and strategy.
Ying Zheng also felt a sense of mutual admiration.
"This foreigner is so bold!"
"He, Napoleon, has extraordinary courage and wisdom."
"Will be a formidable opponent."
"If he was born in my time, we'd see who is the real overlord!"
And in the Han Dynasty.
Wei Qing gazed at the sky, recalling how he grew from a riding slave in the Pingyang Marquis's mansion to a famous general of the Han Dynasty.
After seven victories in seven battles and the recovery of the Heshuo and Hetao regions, I was filled with emotion.
"Napoleon's rise to power is somewhat similar to my experience in the Han Dynasty."
"They all came from ordinary backgrounds, but they ended up standing at the heart of the war stage."
"His command at the Battle of Austerlitz was indeed excellent."
"Accurately grasped the enemy's weaknesses."
"Giving up the high ground is a very clever move."
Huo Qubing thought about it first.
What would you do if it were you?
But after all, Huo Qubing had never commanded artillery.
So even though Huo Qubing had a tactic in mind, he didn't know whether it would work.
So Huo Qubing couldn't help asking:
"It seems that Napoleon is indeed very skilled. What can we learn from him?"
Wei Qing thought for a moment and said slowly:
"In my opinion, Napoleon's tactical style is changeable, with strong mobility as the foundation, and he knows how to flexibly adjust strategies according to the battlefield situation."
"Flexible and unpredictable!"
"That's easy to say."
“But it’s actually very hard to do.”
“Only a true war genius can truly achieve the four words of flexibility and adaptability.”
"But." Wei Qing smiled, "You have already cured the disease."
"Even I, your uncle, have to admit defeat." (End of this chapter)
