Three thousand French cavalry instigated their horses to gallop in the direction of the French camp, and seeing the backs of these cavalrymen, a smile appeared on the corners of Yarman's mouth, if these French cavalry saw the road that was completely cut off, I don't know how they should feel?
Of course, they could also force their way across the river, after all, the water level of the river was not very high, and it was still possible for the cavalry to force their way across the river, but Yarman had ambushed the army by the river, and these Prussian soldiers obviously would not let the French cavalry get what they wanted.
Not long after these French cavalry passed, I saw a large number of French soldiers appear in Yarman's field of vision, don't ask Yarman how he saw it, you must know that it is now at five o'clock, and in this season, it is still dark at five o'clock, so the French army naturally needs to be torched.
"General, it seems that the enemy is pouring out, you look at the enemy's team, obviously in addition to the cavalry, the enemy's army still exceeds 5,000 people!"
The dragon of torches was about to reach under Yarman's nose in front, but it was as if it had just left the Trapp Gate, and the long line stood out in the darkness.
But what these French soldiers didn't know was that there were 9,000 Prussian soldiers watching them all around them, and under the light of torches, it was clear that these French soldiers had become the best prey. ...........................................
The battle lasted more than two hours, and under the command of Rumorin, the coalition forces that broke through the French camp had gradually squeezed the last remaining French resistance in the camp into a radius of less than 1,000 meters.
The die is cast!
Now it all depends on Yarman's performance, Rumorin sighed in his heart and immediately sent someone to send an order to Duke Andrew, asking him to immediately lead the LinkedIn ** team to support Yarman, and it is best to help Yarman annihilate the French army that came to help achieve a complete victory.
Duke Andrew, who received the order, did not prevaricate, at least when Duke Andrew could see the victory, he was still willing to marry Rumorin's task.
Even if the British ** team left, the 7th Division and the 1st Imperial Division left behind would be enough to deal with the French army in front of him, which was already less than 3,000 people.
Not to mention the fact that the coalition forces have a lot of room to maneuver.
The 3,000 French soldiers were all squeezed into a small space, and they didn't even have a chance to make a detour.
Unless these French soldiers can exert the combat effectiveness of the three hundred warriors of Sparta, they will be able to turn the tables, but at least for now, it seems that these French soldiers do not have the potential to become Sparta.
At the same time that Duke Andrew led his army to support Yármain, the envoys sent by Prince Condé also arrived in Paris.
"Open the door, I'm the staff officer of the Fourth Legion.
I have an urgent order to convey to His Majesty the King, open the door immediately!
” The shouting staff officer quickly alarmed the sentries on duty on the walls of Paris, but fortunately the staff officer was wearing a French uniform, otherwise he would have been killed immediately.
And even so, the sentries on the city walls did not dare to act rashly.
Instead, he immediately went to consult the officers on duty on the city walls.
Originally, there was a Prussian army on the road from Trapp to Paris, and when this staff officer went to Paris urgently, the Prussian army also asked whether it was necessary to send someone to kill this staff officer.
But after receiving the instructions, Marshal Ferdinand Jr. suddenly had a flash of inspiration, knowing that since this staff officer was urgently going to Paris, he must have asked for help.
Although the news of Rumerin has not yet arrived, Ferdinand Jr. believes that the probability of Rumerin's victory in this battle far exceeds the probability of defeat in the case of mental calculation or unintentional.
In this case, if the French army in Paris can be lured out to fight a field battle, then there is no doubt that Ferdinand Jr. is confident that even if he cannot defeat the French army because of the inferiority of his troops, it will be a draw at best.
And if it is a tie, then there is no doubt that it will be beneficial to the coalition forces.
After all, if Rumori had pulled out his hand to help, then Ferdinand Jr. believed that the coalition would definitely be able to defeat the French army.
It was with this thought that Ferdinand Jr. would tolerate the staff officer rushing to Paris with a few French cavalry under his nose.
The defenders of Paris did not open the gates because of this staff officer, but lowered the hanging basket from the city wall and pulled the staff officer and the French soldiers up to the city wall of Paris.
"What's going on, Fourth Legion, where are you now?"
After identifying the staff officer and the French soldier.
Napoleon rushed to the south walls of Paris to receive the staff officer at the first time.
Looking at the young marshal in front of him, but his every move attracted countless attention, this staff officer knew that the person in front of him must be Napoleon from the famous town of France, so he said a little anxiously after saluting: "Report to Your Excellency the Marshal.
Our Fourth Army arrived in Trapp today, but a few hours ago, a large number of enemies suddenly appeared outside Trapp, and our army's barracks outside Trapp were fiercely attacked, and according to our reconnaissance, the enemy used no less than 20,000 troops, because His Royal Highness Prince Condé ordered me to come and ask for help!
” Listening to the words of this staff officer, Napoleon's face also changed dramatically.
"Impossible, this morning, the enemy is still maintaining a fierce offensive outside Paris, how can it be possible to reach Trapp from the north of Paris in just half a day!"
Hearing Napoleon's subconscious words, the staff officer immediately said: "Your Excellency Marshal, I did not lie about the military situation, and even the number of enemies may be more than we discovered, and it is precisely because of this that Prince Condé sent me to ask for help!"
The conversation between Napoleon and this staff officer instantly caused countless exclamations to resound in the city of Paris, and no one expected that the Fourth Army was actually attacked by a large number of enemies, and combined with the attack of the coalition forces on Paris during the day, it was obvious that either the enemy had received a large number of reinforcements, or the enemy was making a trick to hide the world.
In fact, during the day today, the Allied forces did uncharacteristically launch a fierce attack on Paris again, but Napoleon did not notice that he even ignored the fact that the interval between each attack of the Allied forces was relatively long, and the faces were different.
In the arrangement of Ferdinand Jr., in order to perfectly complete this task and achieve the effect of deceiving the defenders of Paris, this morning when the sky was dark, the army led by Rumorim first attacked Paris, and only needed to create an atmosphere of fierce attack without seeking much success.
After paying a few smiling casualties, the troops were completely withdrawn, and then immediately advanced in the direction of Trapp without pause, and then sent the British ** team, the first division of the empire and other units in order to fight again according to the previous process.
As a result, when it was close to noon, all the troops that the coalition needed to go to Trapp were drawn out and rushed to Trapp.
By the afternoon, the coalition offensive had come to a complete halt, and this only made the defenders of Paris more vigilant for a possible next attack.
For Napoleon, this arrangement of the coalition forces was undoubtedly a trick on him.
You must know that when the coalition forces attacked again after a few days of silence, Napoleon could be said to be completely apprehensive in his heart, because he could not see through what the coalition forces were selling, and when the coalition forces did not move at all in the afternoon, he was even more confused.
Who would have thought that today's coalition attack on Paris was precisely to disguise its next military deployment to Trapp.

"Damn, we're fooled!"
Napoleon, after roaring in annoyance, immediately ordered: "Order the 1st Division, the 2nd Division, and the Guards in the city to assemble here at once, and I will see all the soldiers of these three armies within an hour!
Also, let all the other troops also mobilize at once, ready for battle and wait for my orders!
” Almost without hesitation, Napoleon decided in his heart to support the Prince of Condé.
The Fourth Division of the Prince of Condé can be said to be the only reinforcement that Paris can count on at present, as for the other reinforcements, Paris does not need to count on it at all, those southern regions of France are not to cause chaos in Paris, can they still be expected to provide reinforcements to Paris?
And defending the city is not just blindly defending, blindly defending consumes the patience and combat effectiveness of the soldiers and civilians in the city and the materials in the city.
Therefore, there are very few examples in history of blindly defending the city and achieving victory, especially when there are no reinforcements from outside.
After deciding to send troops to help, Napoleon's mind immediately came up with the topographical map of Paris to Tepra, you must know that after Louis XVI gave Napoleon full authority to take charge of the defense of Paris, Napoleon carried out a detailed study, and Napoleon was very familiar with the map of the Paris region and the surrounding area.
Since the enemy dared to send troops to attack Trapp's Fourth Army, then the enemy must have made some arrangements for possible reinforcements, which also means that it may not be so easy for the army in Paris to support the Prince of Condé.
It was for this reason that Napoleon transferred the 1st and 2nd Divisions, as well as Louis XVI, to Napoleon's Guards.
These three forces are worthy of outstanding combat effectiveness and large numbers of troops in the city of Paris at present.
The total strength of the three armies was close to 20,000 men, and the reason why more troops were not drawn was that Napoleon was afraid that Paris would not be able to defend after all, and on the other hand, he was also prepared to send troops into battle after discovering the depth of the enemy.
