18th century total war

Chapter 141 The Winner's Instinct
"for freedom!"

bang bang bang~
The fierce battle was approaching dusk again. With Arnaud's death in battle, many soldiers who had been dispersed deserted in the chaos of the battle to learn from the 'example' of the Second Army of the Southern Group that came to the rescue.

However, the Legion of Marseilles is worthy of being deeply brainwashed by revolutionary ideas... No, it should be called an army with very high political consciousness. Until now, most of the battalion-level organization (the battalion-level is the basic organization of the French army at this time) has been defeated by Karl's troops. Disabled, there are still many people fighting.

Arnaud's corpse was completely invisible at this time, and the corpses of both the enemy and us were layered on top of each other, completely covering Arnaud's corpse lying under the national flag.

But Arnaud died on the road of charge, or on a very conspicuous small high ground, when he was waving the flag of the French Revolution, he was shot coldly by a sharpshooter!

This led to the thought 'explosion' of the officers and soldiers of the Marseille Army.

The Black Dragon Legion is not authentic, they are using black guns!

As a result, soldiers continued to come to this small highland to compete for the French tricolor flag, so as not to let their spiritual pillars fall.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Marseille Legion did it. There were three half-kneeling corpses on the ground, supporting each other like tripods, fixing the broken French tricolor flag with countless holes in the middle by stray bullets, under the evening wind. , fluttering in the wind...

Below the three corpses, there are piles of corpses in different shapes and sizes. The blood color has become the background color here, and you can't even see the place where you stepped down!
On the pile of corpses, soldiers from both sides kept rushing up, and then fought with bayonets, muskets, and even fists, feet and teeth!

Many Marseille soldiers and infantry guards fell to the ground because the battle lasted too long, or they were seriously injured or bled excessively. Soon they would become new members of the pile of corpses...

With a gloomy face, Karl held up a monocular and looked at the scorching battlefield that had been fought for a day and a night.

He never dreamed that the resistance of the Marseille Army would be so tenacious and cause him such tragic losses!
Even if the balance of victory has tilted towards him at this time, and most of the Marseilles were either killed or broke up and fled, there are still a small number of people on the small high ground, fighting around the revolutionary banner in their minds!
When the guard infantry retreated, they relied on the bunkers built by the pile of corpses and shot condescendingly. When the guard infantry went up, they used every part of their body to try to keep the enemy behind!

Karl turned his eyes and saw that another battlefield was much easier than where the French flag was. The artillery positions of the Marseille Army and the so-called Second Army of the Southern Group had been completely captured by Karl's people, and the final resistance was easily eliminated. repression.

After there was no enemy artillery bombardment, Karl's men simply carried the mortars, evacuated the last group of infantry guards who attacked, and blasted the bombs at the French Revolutionary flag that was still erected!

Blow up all the few captured bombs!

Besieged on a small high ground, the wounded camp was full of soldiers with gunpowder smoke and blood on their faces. They had no strength to rush down to threaten the enemy's mortar positions. body stood up.

At the same time, a somewhat out-of-tune "Marseille March" resounded through the battlefield again before the mortar bombardment.

"When our fathers and brothers die heroically, we will fight harder!

Bury the bones of the martyrs with your own hands and follow their footsteps!
Follow in their footsteps!
We no longer envy life, but are willing to die in the struggle, and we will feel supremely honored if we can sacrifice for their revenge!

............"

Boom boom boom...

The explosion of flower bombs immediately buried the last song. When the infantry guards holding the black dragon flag came up again, there was no longer a musket in the pile of corpses. Their faces were weak, but they were still full of energy and sang the madness of the Marseillaise. Soldier.

The French revolutionary flag seemed lucky to be able to remain standing under such dense mortar fire (mainly due to the small heights).

The infantry guards who rushed up rarely showed anger. Too many of their "like-minded" fellow soldiers fell under this flag. Turn on the fire...

For the soldiers who came out of the collective brainwashing of the training camp, in their eyes, all the brainwashed officers and soldiers are close brothers with the same ambition (fighting for Levi to death), so in the eyes of ordinary people, they are just training for cold men. Battalion soldiers, in their own group, still have a lot of comrades in arms.

As the French revolutionary tricolor flag, for which the remnants of the Marseille Legion died, burned, the black dragon flag next to it was intact and flying wantonly.

It seems to be signaling something.

The French sky may really tremble under the shadow of the black dragon flag!

Carl supported the general's saber hanging from his waist with his palm, and came to the pile of corpses with a cold face, and asked an officer next to him, "Have you dealt with all the survivors who saw this scene?"

"My lord, the enemies we captured before have already moved away. The enemy soldiers who saw these recalcitrants are all unwilling to surrender. They should all be lying here."

"Ah, very good.

During this battle, we must not publicize the final performance of the Marseille Army. That could easily trigger a revolutionary upsurge throughout France. We must publicize more the deeds of the surrendered soldiers. Arnault's death can be said to have been caused by being killed during the command. Stray bullet hit dead.

Only by emphasizing the cowardice of our opponents will the revolutionary government continue to be afraid when facing us! "

Obviously, Karl, who has reached this point, also understands how to cover up the historical truth under the guidance of Levi's words and deeds.

This is not something to be ashamed of. For Li Wei, all the winners in that world in his previous life were doing similar things.

Remember, it is all!
This is a way for winners to protect their reputation instinctively. As the ones with the last laugh, it is understandable for them to do so. After all, in this world, whoever has the strongest fist has the final say.

A winner who doesn't know how to promote himself as "Guangweizheng" is not a qualified winner.

Regardless of Li Wei's fierce war methods now, the best end for those who oppose him is to work to death in a labor office, or even be brainwashed and die in battle. But after Li Wei takes the French regime, he will naturally have a way to give He and the Black Dragon Legion were cleansed.
