C2646 Attacks by the French cavalry

"Enemy attack!" "Enemy attack!"

A terrified roar woke Wang Chen up from his dreams, his head jerked, and his forehead hit the steel coach with a loud bang!

"Wake up! Wake up! There was a gunshot! " With a whoosh, Wang Chen jumped up from the dry grass, and opened the observation deck of the carriage. Looking towards the side of the railway, as expected, intense gunfire and billowing smoke came from afar.

With a crashing sound, the metal door of the coach was opened. An unknown small station appeared in front of them in a flurry!

"Quick, quick, quick..." Everyone had to enter the stage! "The brothers of the first battalion will defend the small station on the spot, while the second battalion will gather from the east to the south …"

"The third battalion encircled the area from the west to the south... Brother of the 4th Battalion, guard the train, get ready to defend! "

The iron gates opened one by one as countless Chinese soldier jumped down from above. The staff and soldiers of the border station were all dumbfounded!

"Is this the Chinese ally? "God bless them, their luck is terrible. As soon as we arrived at the front lines, we encountered a large scale invasion by the enemy …"

"No one thought that the French would be so arrogant. Even before the frontline infantry regiment is fully assembled, they still dare to attack us!"

"Shut up. If you don't understand, then don't spout nonsense …" That is called probing, infiltrating, these French cavalry want to find out what we are up to, and they want to know the truth of our defense lines … "

Just as the guards were whispering to each other, a bald Chinese officer ran over and asked, "Where's the translator?" Where is our translator? Hurry up and ask about the situation! "

Ever since Xiao Letian and Prussia established a cooperative relationship, Prussia had started to nurture Chinese talents. After three or four years of focused training, Prussia already had a batch of translators who were fluent in Chinese.

This time, Bismark also gave out a huge amount of resources, giving every class under Xiao Letian a Prussian translator. Two thousand troops meant that he was worthy of two hundred Translator, these civil officials all lived and ate together with the army. Basically, they had already become members of the Chinese Special team!

Hearing the summons of the officer, a young man named Frank trotted over. "Yes! "Sir!"

Frank ran to the side of the garrison and asked nervously. Not long later, he brought back the latest news!

Frank's direct subordinate was Wang Chen. Upon hearing that it was the French trying to attack, the baldy immediately turned around. As expected of a veteran of the Chinese race, he had thought of the right idea in the blink of an eye.

"Brothers!" Do not bring tents, heavy machine guns, shotgun and other heavy weapons! Everyone will bring three days of Soldier rations! "

"Bring as many bullets and grenades as you can! We must have crossed the border first in this war! Do not ask why, obey orders! "

This small station was close to the confluence of the three nations, Luxembourg, Germany and France. Not far to the south was the border town of TIonville, and not far to the south was the important military town of Mace.

This kind of geographical location was the most important frontline of the war between the two countries, a place where all armies fought for the throne. The Prussian s had stationed a large number of troops at their border, and their military camps were continuous!

This era's defensive line was not filled with trenches as densely packed as the one before the war. At this moment, the military defensive line had a strong medieval style, with a large number of tents forming camps, fences, and simple earthen walls that acted as fortifications to defend against the enemy's attacks.

This kind of old-fashioned defensive system without any trenches gave the Swift Cavalry a chance to infiltrate. After all, the French army was made up of professional veterans. Their military prowess was unquestionable.

Night Assault, Harassment, Cavalry's forced breakthrough, Fake Attack … A series of small maneuvers designed to test Prussia's defense density.

Those French officers with extremely high quality could completely judge the number of troops by the density of the cannons of the defenders.

The defensive line stretched for dozens of miles. As long as the defense was found out, when the late emperor came to personally rule, they would be able to throw themselves into the infantry!

Wang Chen knew his superiors too well. This kind of probing battle was too suitable for special operations of the Chinese clan. The Head of the Guards could not help but snatch this opportunity away.

Just as expected, at the same time, Xiao Letian was leading his regiment to pressure the old leader in Chief Steinmetz's base.

"Marshal Steinmetz! Once again, I would like to emphasize that in the face of French cavalry's provocation, you had better let my people go … " Xiao Letian said.

"No, no, no …" "Leader, I will never agree to your suggestion. I've already marked out the defensive positions of the Eastern Legion. It's best for you to guard the west side of the Moselle River well!" The marshal did not give in.

"What?" West of the Moselle River? Hehehe … Are you joking with me again? "

Xiao Letian stood up and stared into the eyes of the Prussian 1st Legion Commander Steinmetz and said, "West of the Moselle River is close to the borders of Luxembourg!"

"What kind of battles can there be? "Don't forget, Luxembourg is a kingdom that has been established only by Britain. If he were to be attacked, it would be equivalent to provoking Britain!"

"Neither France nor Prussia would have been so foolish as to let their shells fall on the Luxembourg border! Did you leave us there to keep us out of the war? "

"The entire front line from the Mace to the Strasbourg has actually allocated us to the westernmost border? Is your decision an insult to us? "

"No, no, no …" "Führer, you are wrong!" The marshal would not dare to bear such a crime.

"What I am thinking of is entirely from the point of view of war! The Chinese Army is famous for being good at guarding! In the Shiqiao uplands, your performance has made all of Europe bow before you! "

"Now, I have handed over the entire defense line's right wing to you. This is the absolute importance that I attach to you!"

"What's more …" Our Prussian will not let our friends in the distance bleed so much! "

"I thank you for your good intentions!" Xiao Letian walked over to the map and coldly said, "We Chinese are good at defending and attacking! War of the Far East is not something that we can defend! "

"You must use me in this counterattack! Because I have to use our reasons! "

Xiao Letian pointed at the map and said, "In the end, this war is to make use of the geographical features of the northern borders of France, and create a situation where the enemy cannot help each other!"

"Let's take a careful look at the territories between France and the Germany. Look at the shape of this border. Do you want to see the number 7?"

"That's right, it's a number 7. Starting from the point where Luxembourg, France, and Germany meet at the border, all the way from the east to the Rhine. This distance is the one between the numbers!"

"From the Rhine to the south, all the way to the Switzerland's Basel. This is the mark of the number!"

"This is the place where we use our troops. We can't use our troops here, because the wide Rhine is a natural barrier and a border!"

"If we attack from this point, the French will be able to easily block our attack as long as they follow the route of the Rhine!"
