When the Prussian army saw Wilhelm's banner erected at the front, the whole army burst into loud cheers.
The Austrians on the opposite side looked across when they heard the loud noise coming from the Prussian camp.
Field Marshal Lassi was informed by his subordinates of the abnormal situation of the Prussian army opposite, and then walked to the forward position, raised his binoculars and looked at the opposite side, and what appeared in front of him was a Prussian soldier who looked like a carnival, and when he turned left and right, he saw the banner of Wilhelm and the flag of the king of Prussia.
"Haha, children are children who show off, but forget that this is the battlefield," said Marshal Lassi, who put down his binoculars and laughed at the Austrian officers under him "Your Excellency Marshal, after all, is also a nine-year-old child, and there must be a heart for showing off," said Klaus, the chief of staff under Marshal Lassy "Let this kid shine first, and let this little ghost become our prisoner in a few days," Marshal Lassi said proudly "Well, when the army of Archduke Leopold came up, we captured this boy alive, and see if the proud Prussians could be proud," Klaus said proudly In William's royal tent, William is listening to Hawkeye's report "Your Majesty, we have received the latest news that the Leopold Legion of Austria has come to our side, and it is estimated that they have come to support Lassy," Hawkeye said respectfully "Haha, I'm afraid that Leopold won't come, and when he comes, we will achieve even more brilliant results," William said with a smile on his face "Your Majesty, we can't take the enemy lightly, Marshal Lassi is a strong enemy, and our forces are weaker than the other side, so I think I should take up all my strength and deal with the Austrians," Ferdinand admonished "Ferdinand, you're right, I'll leave these things to you, you can't let me down," William said after a moment of silence "Your Majesty, the minister will certainly live up to your expectations," Ferdinand said excitedly In the autumn of the Common Era, the confrontation between Prussia and Austria was broken with the arrival of the Leopold army of Austria.
"Your Excellency Archduke Leopold, this battle is up to you," Marshal Lassi said to a middle-aged man in the marching tent.
This middle-aged man is in his thirties, with a fair face, thick eyebrows, and a straight nose, giving people the impression of being heroic.
"Field Marshal Lassi is gracious, everything is for Austria, and I want to thank Marshal Lassi for everything he has done for Austria," Leopold said and saluted Marshal Lassy "Your Highness is too polite, torture and kill," Lassi hurriedly replied with a salute and said Although Emperor Joseph II was thirty-nine years old, he had only one daughter and no heirs, and the Archduke Leopold in front of him was very favored by Queen Teresa, and it was rumored that the queen intended to make Joseph II Archduke Leopold the crown prince.
"Marshal Lassy, since I have come to the front, I will obey your orders, but I have a request that I would like you to grant me," said Leopold sincerely "Your Highness, please," asked Marshal Lassy "Leave me with the task of attacking the Prussian Banner, and I will lead my regiment to the glory of Austria," Leopold said slowly.
"Your Highness, the Prussians will certainly place heavy troops near their royal tents, you see that for your safety, Marshal Lassi said in embarrassment "Your Excellency, the men of the Habsburgs are never afraid of danger, and I beg you to entrust this task to me," said Leopold firmly "Alright then, but Your Highness, please pay attention to your safety, and I will transfer most of the artillery of the whole army to you" Marshal Lassi saw that Leopold insisted on retreating.
"Haha, Marshal Lassi is very grateful for your generosity," Leopold said with a smile The next day, the Austrian army bared their hideous fangs in front of the Prussian lines.
Hundreds of artillery pieces lined up, and hundreds of thousands of troops spread across the battlefield.
Wilhelm raised his binoculars outside the tent and looked at the Austrians, and it was clear that Wilhelm's plan had succeeded, and the Austrians could not resist the temptation to capture the Prussian king alive, and they placed most of their forces on the line in front of William.
As the musicians in the queue began to play the recorder, the entire Austrian army seemed to come to life, and they marched forward step by step in the unbelievably dense queue that the modern man had opened.
And before the entire Austrian army was thousands of small carts.
The carts were covered with tall and thick wooden walls, large enough to shield the soldiers behind them, and the front of the carts was filled with sand.
It seems that Marshal Lassi tried to fill the Prussian trenches with this primitive tactic.
But what Marshal Lassi did not expect was that while the Austrians were busy cutting down trees, the Prussians used the night time to dig a tunnel under the ground, which was also supported by thick wood, but under each log was placed a pile of hay, and between the two logs there was a circle of cotton cloth, and there were black stains on the cotton cloth, which also gave off a strong smell.
This black thing is kerosene, and William scraped the kerosene from the nearby Baili family, and at the same time urgently transferred a batch of kerosene from the country to the front line.
As soon as the Austrians reached the Prussian position, Wilhelm would order the kerosene to be ignited, and then the kerosene would set fire to the hay and even the stakes, and then a large hole would appear in the ground.
William had confessed to Ferdinand about digging the tunnel long before he set out for the front, and although Ferdinand did not understand the point of doing so, he did it.
It wasn't until William told Ferdinand about his plan that Ferdinand exclaimed.
On the Austrian position, Marshal Lassi looked at the clear sky, and his heart suddenly felt happy.
He waved his hand to signal the Austrians to attack.
The Austrian artillery roared, and after hearing the Austrian artillery, the artillery of the Prussian army also began to bombard, and the rumbling artillery fire flooded the land.
The Austrian carts moved quickly towards the Prussian position, and I have to admit that this old-fashioned method still had some effect.
Due to the power of the musket, unless it hits the fatal point, it will not hurt at all under the barrier of sand and stone and wooden shields Leopold was on standby with 12,000 cuirassiers, and his task was to wait until the infantry had cleared the Prussian barrier and then take the Prussian king's tent.
Leopold looked at the battlefield from time to time, and he felt that he was in a hurry to wait.
When Ferdinand asked William if he wanted to start burning the tunnels now, William shook his head and said to Ferdinand: "After the Austrian front army begins to make contact with us, if Field Marshal Lassi presses the main Austrian army, we will burn it again, and it will be too early to burn" After speaking, Wilhelm picked up the telescope and looked at the battlefield.
