In fact, Karina is also quite dissatisfied with Anna, in Karina's opinion, whether it is the time with William or the mutual affection, she is longer and closer than Anna, but the woman who sits on the throne of the Queen of Prussia is Anna instead of her.
You must know that the current Karina is not as good as before, under the arrangement of Locks, Karina is gradually integrated into the affairs of the Prussian government, and even Locks intends to train Karina as a successor, after all, he only has Karina, a granddaughter.
Although the alliance between Du Li and Karina did not get the nod of Locks' approval, Locks had a tacit attitude towards Karina's secret contact with Du Li.
While the two women were plotting, in Nicholas, under the leadership of Napoleon, 20,000 French troops also broke through.
May 3, 1793 The 20,000 French troops, led by Napoleon, launched a surprise attack on the allied forces south of the city, and it was Ernst's 30,000 British troops who defended the south of Nicholas.
When Ernst learned from the herald of the French raid in the city, Ernst immediately asked: "How many troops does the enemy have?
Did the enemy's banner appear among the attacking French troops?
” "Report to Your Highness, judging from the intensity of our attack and the flags of those French troops, the French army attacking our army is about 20,000, and Napoleon, the commander of the enemy army, has also personally appeared on the battlefield!"
Ernst was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that this was definitely not an accidental attack.
You must know that according to intelligence and the battle some time ago, the French army in the city was only more than 20,000 people.
And now there are about 20,000 French troops attacking the British defense line, not to mention that Napoleon himself appeared on the battlefield.
After a while, Ernst made a decision.
He said to the officers in the tent: "Mobilize all the troops, and you must block the surprise attack of the French army in the city!
Also, immediately report the situation here to the Coalition Commander and ask for assistance!
” As he spoke, Ernst took his hat and stuck it on his head and walked out.
You must know that as a prince of the British royal family, Ernst's heart is naturally full of disgust for Napoleon, who completely annihilated the British expeditionary force, and now after learning that the French army that attacked the city was led by Napoleon himself and may have been poured out of the entire Nicholas city.
Ernst couldn't be more calm.
Soon, 30,000 British troops were quickly dispatched from the barracks to help the front line.
Before the British line, the French army also fought fiercely with the British army.
Despite riding on a horse, Napoleon's figure was noticeably bloated, which was not because Napoleon was fat.
Rather, it was gauze that went around a full three turns under Napoleon's clothes.
The wounds from the last raid on the Prussian camp have not healed to this day, which is why Napoleon did not take the lead in fighting on the front line.
Sometimes, however, the role of the central government was far greater than that of the charge, and it was Napoleon's brother Joseph who led the vanguard of the French army to storm the British defenses.
Unlike Napoleon, Joseph did not receive systematic military training from an early age, and he only joined Napoleon after Napoleon became the commander of the Second Army of the French Army.
However, I don't know if it's because the Bonaparte family has belligerent genes in their blood, in short, both Joseph and Lucien quickly stood out after joining the army.
Of course, in this process, Napoleon did not use his own privileges.
Although Joseph's fighting methods and methods are still a little immature, he also has the qualities that a qualified general should have.
And compared to Joseph.
Napoleon was more interested in Lucien, the third son of the Bonaparte family, who soon showed great talent after joining the army.
In Napoleon's view, Lucien only lacked some experience compared to himself, but in other aspects, he had the potential to surpass himself in an all-round way.
"Your Excellency Marshal, General Joseph is already a little difficult to support, please order me to lead two brigades to support!"
Lucien, who was standing beside Napoleon, observed the battlefield for a while and then asked Napoleon for his life.
Although the vanguard led by Joseph had a surprise effect on the British defensive line, and the British army suffered a lot of losses when it was just attacked by the French army, but with a large number of British troops continuously replenishing the various fronts, the French army led by Joseph was like falling into a puddle of mud, and the heart was more than enough but not enough!
"Lucien, I'll give you two thousand men, and you must open the gap as soon as possible after you meet with Cerf!"
"Yes, Your Excellency, Marshal!"
Lucien, who had received Napoleon's military order, immediately answered loudly and loudly after receiving Napoleon's consent, and then turned back to take command of the two thousand soldiers that Napoleon had allocated to him.
"Your Excellency Marshal, is it a bit risky to let both Joseph and Lucien rush to the front line?"
Mana, who was on Napoleon's other side, saw Lucien walking away, and Mana, with a worried face, said to Napoleon.
Unexpectedly, when he heard Mana's question, Napoleon burst out laughing "Mana, you persuaded me to break through, and now that the army has arrived here, there is no room for us to maneuver, whether it is Joseph or Lucien, they are indeed my own brothers, but every Frenchman here is not my brother!
The man of the Bonaparte family can only die in front of others, and the man who hides and trembles in the protection can never be a member of the Bonaparte family!
” Napoleon said to Mana in a firm tone, and Napoleon's words also made Mana's heart stir.
In Lucien's opinion, the best way to relieve Joseph's pressure was undoubtedly to find another place to put the greatest pressure on the French army, so that he could really play a supporting role.
Because Joseph's first attack successfully diverted the attention of the British army on the entire front, and Joseph's headquarters, which had only more than 6,000 people, was soon surrounded by the British ** team in a moon-shaped shape.
However, it was at the lower arc of the British lunaga.
Lucien, however, found a loophole, that the two British armies in that place were not well connected, and there was a full fifty paces between the two British armies.

And as long as these fifty steps are penetrated, then a big opening can be opened in the lunar-shaped formation of the British army. 2,000 French troops under the leadership of Lucien quietly lurked on the left flank of the British army, because the position of the left flank of the British army was a small hill, so under the cover of the small hill, Lucien successfully evaded the search of the British reconnaissance cavalry.
But Lucien, who lurked on this small hill, knew that, according to the English custom, the scout cavalry was in batches every half hour.
It had taken them more than ten minutes to avoid the previous group of British scout cavalry, which meant that Lucien had to attack within ten minutes, otherwise he would be exposed.
But now the British team has not yet reached the best attack position that Lucien has in mind.
What to do.
Whether to attack in advance has become the biggest problem in Lucien's mind.
However, only three minutes later, when a flag appeared in Lucien's telescope, Lucien decided to attack early.
The military flag that appeared belonged to the commander of the British ** team, Prince Ernst.
Although, in Lucien's opinion.
The British team has not yet appeared in the best attack position that they have demarcated.
But when he saw that Ernst was only less than three hundred meters away from him, and it was probably that the attention of the British ** team was all attracted by Joseph, there were less than five hundred British soldiers around Ernst at the moment.
Even with the British army, which had maintained a distance of fifty paces from Ernst, Lucien still had less than 3,000 enemies to face.
This meant that if they were fast enough, the French would have an advantage over the local battle in half an hour, after all, even if the British found out that Ernst was surrounded and adjusted their tactics, it would take at least half an hour.
After all, Ernst was the commander of the British ** team, without Ernst's orders.
A certain amount of confusion in most of the British army is to be expected.
Having made up his mind, Lucien immediately ordered the guards around him to sound the horn of the attack.
Suddenly, the horn sounded not far from him, and Ernst was startled by the marching one, and he immediately looked at the small hill to the west, only to see that the originally silent hill was now sounding with an earth-shattering shout, and countless French soldiers rushed towards the British army formation in which he was.
"Don't panic, start the battle formation immediately!
Immediately send the 3rd Infantry Regiment and the 5th Dragoon Regiment to the front to help!
Let the front-line units continue to maintain the intensity of the offensive against the French army, and wait for my next order!
Let the 6th and 7th Infantry Regiments and the 1st Royal Brigade in the rear hurry up and get here!
” Although the sudden appearance of 2,000 French troops under the cover of a small hill seemed to be boundless, in Ernst's opinion, it was unlikely that many French troops would appear here.
The British scout cavalry was not completely waste, and the reason why Lucien was able to lurk here was because he had a time lag with the British scout cavalry, and the number of people was not very large, so he was able to hide from the reconnaissance of the British scouts.
And Ernst is also confident in the scouts under his command, knowing that most of the scout cavalry serving under him now are Hanoverians who participated in the Battle of the Main River in Prussia with Ernst and participated in the whole process of Daphilia's attack on Bavaria.
In terms of combat experience, these Hanoverian scout cavalry had already completed the transformation of survival of the fittest and became qualified scouts under the words and deeds of the Prussians and the brutal training of the battlefield.
After Ernst's order was given, the five hundred British troops finally came out of the confusion a little, and under the orders of the officers, the five hundred British soldiers formed a large semicircle around Ernst.
Not only that, but when the French army suddenly appeared, the British army, which was only fifty paces in front of Ernst's headquarters, also quickly woke up, but because of the terrain restrictions, an infantry regiment and a dragoon regiment in front of Ernst could not react quickly.
The response of the British army did not surprise Lucien, which was a complete surprise for Lucien, you must know that the most worrying thing in Lucien's heart was undoubtedly that when Ernst was attacked by his own side, the British troops marching in front of Ernst immediately turned back and joined the protection of Ernst regardless of the formation, which was the last thing Lucien wanted to see.
But at the moment, although the British troops marching in front were also in an attacking posture, it was clear that this large group of British soldiers was still preparing and integrating, and even if they were less than fifty paces apart, these British troops could not join the rescue of Ernst without the orders of the superior officers.
In fact, this does not mean that these British soldiers did not attach importance to Ernst's life, in fact, on the contrary, the British soldiers can be said to attach considerable importance to Ernst's life.
But after all, it takes time for the army to prepare for battle, it takes time to form a neat formation and reload bullets, and the battle of lining up to shoot looks bloody and gorgeous, but it is also full of rigidity.
The 2,000 French troops soon rushed to the 500 British troops besieging Ernst, and in order to cut off the possible assistance of the British army in the front, Lucien even split half of his soldiers to attack the British soldiers who were still preparing, so as to cut off Ernst from the British army in the front.
Although Lucien had only 1,000 men left after half of his forces were divided, in Lucien's opinion, the number of troops was not a problem, as long as he could knock down Ernst's banner, then there was hope of victory in this battle.
A thousand French troops kept squeezing the British defensive line, although the British soldiers lined up in a semicircular defensive line facing the French army, but due to the lack of troops, the entire semicircular defensive line was only less than four layers thick.
Under Lucien's order, a part of the 500 French troops fired at the British army desperately, while the other French army under the personal leadership of Lucien charged the British ** team despite the fact that the two sides maintained a distance of nearly 100 meters.
It may take twenty or thirty seconds for a normal person to run a hundred meters, but for these Napoleon-ravaged French soldiers under Lucien, running a hundred meters in about twenty seconds is already the most basic.
And what can you do in twenty seconds?
Twenty seconds is only enough time for three rows of British soldiers to fire a round of guns, of course, some veterans can also load ammunition and aim at the target to complete the shooting in 20 seconds, but for most recruits, it is good to be able to load ammunition in 20 seconds and shoot out, as for aiming at the target is a little unrealistic, after all, they also need to load the gun with bayonets in order to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the French troops who are about to rush in front of them.
