At Lafayette's order, the army of Lyon was immediately put into action, and the city was full of people looking for the defeated troops who had retreated from the battle in the north, gathering them together, re-electing their generals, and then marching to their respective defensive areas.
< －》 Correspondingly, the French army outside the city was gradually tightening the encirclement, and groups of Fangjun soldiers entered their respective garrisons under the arrangement of the officers.
"Your Excellency, General Napoleon has sent me here to request five thousand reinforcements from His Excellency the Marshal, so that our army can launch a more powerful offensive."
Moltai walked into Marshal Creech's tent, and when Creech heard Mortai's request, his face was visibly stunned.
Napoleon performed very well in the battle of Enlaize, annihilating nearly 40,000 troops in the first battle, and his exploits were even more prominent than Creech.
Although Creech admired Napoleon and thought that he was not a thing, he was taken aback when he heard the news of Napoleon's victory from the herald.
In such a situation, Creech couldn't help but mumble in his heart.
This attack on Lyon was the most important step for him Creech to become a duke, and if at this time, Napoleon's performance was more dazzling than Creech, which made Creech embarrassed.
Maybe people will say that the reason why you see Creech was able to get the duke is all due to Napoleon, or you see that Napoleon's credit is greater than Creech, but Napoleon is just a count, and Creech wants to become a duke, isn't this an unknown reward and punishment.
Although Creech was optimistic about Napoleon, and the Marquis was also an upright soldier, no matter how upright a person was, he would always be calm when faced with what he had dreamed of for many years.
Under such circumstances, Creech's heart was a little troubled, and he was determined to win the duke's position, but as a person who cherished his reputation, Creech hoped that when he was promoted to duke, he would receive everyone's heartfelt blessings and applause instead of others' doubts about him.
And now, in Creech's opinion.
Napoleon's exploits were sufficient, and if Napoleon were to be involved in the attack on Lyon, he would definitely have to get a share of the feats with the combat effectiveness of Napoleon's army, and such a situation was exactly what Creech did not want to see.
In the first battle of Enlaize, Napoleon fought quite beautifully.
Pretty even Creech was a little jealous.
Under such circumstances, whether in public or private, Creech was reluctant to give Napoleon another chance to make a great contribution, because that would greatly affect his own image.
Come to think of it.
Creech's face stiffened "This...
That one......
Ahem, Mortai, I think your unit did a very good job in the battle of Enlaze Town, but correspondingly, I have heard that your department's losses are very large.
But now I'm strapped for a lot of troops, so let me think about it.........."
After hearing Creech's words, Moltai's face changed, how could Moltai not understand the meaning of Critch's words, he immediately said: "Your Excellency Marshal, we ................."
"Well, so be it" Before Mortai could finish speaking, Creech interrupted Mortai with a wave of his hand "Tell Napoleon, in the next battle.
I don't need you to attack Lyon, what you need to do is to keep an eye on the eastern and southern areas of Lyon, especially the southern area, and I want you to completely seal it off and never allow any rebels in the city to escape from your defensive areas.
That's your job.
As for the assault on the city of Lyon, I have other arrangements, and later I will give the official order to Napoleon, you go down first!
” Speak at the same time.
Creech's face turned a little red, and it was clear that Creech was not one of those politicians.
He wasn't very skilled at doing these things, but Mortai, who was completely stunned, didn't notice Creech's face.
"Your Excellency, I think ................."
"Well, this is my order, you go back and tell Napoleon to follow it, so be it!"
Creech waved his hand, then stepped out of his seat and walked to the side of the roller shutter.
Moltai did not expect to ask for reinforcements, but he received such an answer.
It is undeniable that the battle of Enlaize Town was indeed brilliant, but in the end, Lyon is the most important target of this counterinsurgency, and compared to Leon, who cares about Enlaize Town, which is only a small dot on the map.
Even the greatest feats achieved in Enlaize cannot be compared with the feats of the storm on Lyon.
When Moltai relayed Creech's orders to Napoleon, he was surprised to find that Napoleon's face was surprisingly calm.
"Okay, Mortai, you have also worked hard, since the order of His Excellency the Marshal is like this, then we are ordered to do it, you go down and rest first!"
Looking at Napoleon, Moltai's heart was a little unwilling "But Your Excellency, the rebels in the city of Lyon are at the end of their rope, and now the breach of the city is just around the corner, this is a huge pie in front of us, if we miss this opportunity, then it will not be easy to wait for such an opportunity to appear in the future."
Moltai's face became a little anxious, and he was afraid that Napoleon would give up "Your Excellency, General, I am soft-spoken, it is better for you to personally ask to see Marshal Creech, I believe that Your Excellency will listen to your opinion" Hearing Moltai say this, Napoleon smiled on his face and said: "Mortai, you are right, but under the military orders of His Excellency the Marshal, we have no room for refutation, you must understand that it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders!
Okay, you've worked hard today, go down and have a good rest."
Seeing the smile on Napoleon's face, Moltai only had to hold back the indignation in his heart and leave the tent.
What Moltai didn't expect was that just as he walked out of the big tent, Napoleon, who was still smiling, instantly turned gloomy.
Napoleon did not expect that Creech, who had been talking to him very happily before, would actually pit himself at this time and not be able to participate in the attack on Lyon, which would mean that after the victory of the war, Napoleon's merits would be greatly reduced.
But what could he do if he didn't want to, as he himself said, soldiers are obedience to orders, and if Napoleon dared to openly disobey Crets's orders, then there would certainly be no good fruit for him.
"Creech, I've written down this account!"
