The results of the battle were quickly counted. Including the first wave of attacks, the French army killed a total of 952 people, seriously injured 647 people, and slightly injured 415 people. Almost a regiment was lost. The losses of the Russian army were also quickly counted. One was killed 1102 people and captured 1300 people, of which 425 were seriously injured and 312 were slightly injured.

After receiving the result, Lana's face was ashen. Although the loss of the French army is slightly lighter than that of the Russian army, it should be said that this battle loss rate is also very good for the offensive side. As a rule, the loss of the offensive side is generally greater than that of the defensive side. But that's just the norm. For France, which is equipped with a large number of new weapons and uses advanced tactics, this battle loss rate is a bit unreasonable. Others didn't say anything, but Marshal Lana himself was very unhappy. He dispatched a total of 6 regiments with 15,000 people. The attack equipment, training, and morale were far inferior to his own 5,000 Russian troops. In the end, he paid the price of nearly one regiment, which was unacceptable to him.

Although they won the battle, none of the 5th Army, from the regiment commander to the bottom soldiers, had a smile on their faces. Lana originally wanted to attack the second line of defense of the Russian army. But he was immediately pulled out by Lanshi: "Your Excellency, Marshal, it's time for lunch. According to the agreement, it's time for our 3rd Army to attack in the afternoon. Please rest assured, we will definitely help you avenge you." After finishing speaking, Ignoring Lanana's eyes as if they were about to kill, he strode away: "Boys, give me enough to eat and drink. I will avenge the brothers of the 5th Legion in the afternoon and let those **** Russians see our 5th Legion." The 3 Legion is amazing."

As soon as Lanshi finished speaking, the people of the 3rd Army immediately responded loudly. The people of the 5th Army stared at them angrily. Seeing this situation, Xiao Jie had no choice but to shake his head helplessly: "The conflicts between the commanders of the various legions of the empire are getting bigger and bigger. I don't know how many times the incident like Auerstadt will happen again ( The Auerstadt incident refers to the refusal of Bernadotte's 1st Army to rescue Davout's Guards, which was encircled by the Prussians when attacking Prussia).

Sikes is also very aware of these intrigues within the imperial army, and these matters are really difficult to resolve. Fortunately, Napoleon has a greater prestige, otherwise I really don't know what they will do. "It seems that we should report this issue to His Majesty the Emperor," Sikes suggested.

Xiao Jie smiled wryly and said: "Is this useful? His Majesty the Emperor is well aware of these things, but I'm afraid he is also powerless. These marshals are all arrogant and arrogant. No one can order them except His Majesty the Emperor. Even I, the Crown Prince, are the same, if His Majesty the Emperor has not always supported me, I am afraid few of them would listen to me, of course, not to mention my uncle Marshal Murat."

Sikes didn't know what to say now. France actually seemed to be very powerful, but in fact it was strong on the outside and capable on the inside. They have nothing to do with these things now, the only thing they can do is to try their best to increase their strength. Fortunately, the performance of the 88th Legion has always been very good, and Xiao Jie has not been disappointed, which makes him very pleased.

After lunch, the French army's offensive started again, but this time the offensive troops were replaced by the 3rd Army. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the shelling began. Because I knew the effect of the shelling would not be very good, I only shelled for 5 minutes this time. Next, put on the infantry to perform.

Lanshi attached great importance to the first wave of attacks. According to the intelligence, the Russian army also only deployed 5,000 people on this line of defense, but with the addition of the more than 2,000 people who were defeated this morning, there are a total of three A group of people. Perhaps it was because Lanshi wanted to show that the combat power of the 3rd Army was stronger than that of the 5th Army, so he only invested 5,000 people in two regiments in the first wave of attacks. Regarding these, Xiao Jie couldn't say anything. Although he is the crown prince and the supreme commander of this army, apart from his own 88th army, I am afraid that there are not many people who can listen to him, let alone intervene in the internal command affairs of other armies.

Because this attack does not need to cross the river, there is not much obstacle. Except for the Russian artillery shells falling from the sky, there is basically nothing that can threaten the lives of the French soldiers. The two regiments of 5,000 people also adopted the formation of 4 skirmish lines, and the shelling of the Russian army only caused them very slight casualties. When the Russian army was in the position, the Russian infantry began to shoot. Under the intensive shooting of the Russian army, French soldiers were constantly shot and fell down. Many people chose to fight back on the ground. For a while, the two armies began to shoot. When shooting against each other, the French army temporarily gained an advantage by virtue of its advanced weapons.

"Bombardier, get on! Others cover," a company commander commanding the front line ordered. Immediately, more than a dozen figures rushed out from behind him, and quickly rushed towards the Russian army's position. The other soldiers fired wrongly, hoping to suppress the enemy's firepower. Of the 12 bombardiers who charged, 5 fell down on the road, but the remaining 7 finally rushed to the farthest distance of bombing, and the grenades flew out immediately, and the Russians who bombed were crying. With this success, the infantry behind rushed up immediately, and the two sides fought fiercely again.

However, the hand-to-hand combat situation was very unfavorable to the French army. The French army was a little worse than the Russian army in terms of hand-to-hand combat. Lanshi didn't care about the posture now, and immediately reinforced two regiments, and ordered four regiments to outflank it again. It seems that he intends to keep all these Russian troops here.

After receiving reinforcements, the situation on the battlefield immediately reversed. The balance of victory began to tilt towards the French army, and it was often two French soldiers against one Russian soldier. Although the individual strength of the Russian soldiers was a little stronger than that of the French soldiers, it was also limited. ratio, it is also very difficult for the Russians to have a chance of winning.

Slowly, more and more Russians fell. At the same time, many Russians also found that there were more and more French people around their positions. The Russian general who was in charge of commanding this line of defense immediately discovered the French army. attempt. Now, he had no other choice, so he had to immediately order: "All retreat, retreat to the city as quickly as possible." This was his only way out before the encirclement of the French army was formed.

Unfortunately, his order brought great disaster to the Russian army. As soon as the Russian army at a disadvantage heard the order to retreat, they immediately gave up the entanglement with their opponents and ran back desperately without paying attention to the situation. In this way, the inevitable Russian army began to be defeated. The French army seized this plan and pursued it fiercely.

Karbayev was also watching the development of the battle in Vape at this time. When he knew that the Russian army on the front line began to rout, he immediately realized the urgency of the matter. It would be bad if these rout troops were allowed to attract the French army. , will definitely disrupt the final layout of Vape. No way, Karbayev thought. "General Ropnov, lead the cavalry to attack immediately to meet the troops withdrawing from the front line. Don't get entangled with the French. Once you complete your goal, return immediately." Now he only has more than 2,000 cavalry in his hands, and he can no longer afford losses.

The French army, which was trying to surround the Russian army, was caught off guard by the Russian cavalry who rushed out suddenly, and they gave up chasing the defeated Russian infantry and turned to fight against the fierce Cossack cavalry. Although there were only 2,000 cavalry, they stopped the advance of the 20,000 French army and caused a lot of casualties to the French army.

Under the impact of the Cossack cavalry, the battlefield was in chaos, and many troops had to fight on their own. Fortunately, even if the French army formed a formation against the cavalry and their weapons were sharp, they could stop the Cossack cavalry's advance.

On the other side, Xiao Jie asked Murat's cavalry to attack immediately after learning that the Russian cavalry was dispatched, but in the end it was still a step late. When the Russian army, which was routed from the second line of defense, fled, the Cossack cavalry also got rid of their entanglement with the French army and left. Only hundreds of corpses of cavalry and horses remained on the battlefield.

It was a pity for Xiao Jie and the marshals and generals to fail to eat up the Russian army in one go, but was stopped by their cavalry. The results of the battle were quickly counted. In this attack, the 3rd Army lost 1,205 people, seriously injured 714 people, and slightly injured 523 people. It lost a whole regiment of troops. Most of them were lost when dealing with Russian cavalry. Although this loss was greater than that of the 5th Army, they achieved much greater results than the 5th Army. A total of 2,473 Russian soldiers were killed, including more than 460 Cossack cavalry, and more than 2,500 were captured. Can achieve such a result~lightnovelpub.net~ Lanshi is also a little happy, clamoring to reward the soldiers. However, it was stopped by Xiao Jie. Xiao Jie wanted to end the war as soon as possible and didn't want to waste time on this, but he promised to reward everyone after the war. Seeing that there was still a little time left in the afternoon, at Xiao Jie's request, the 3rd Army launched an attack on the last line of defense in the Russian Vape area.

The last line of defense of the Russian army was built around the city of Vape, together with trenches and foxholes under the city, forming a tight line of defense. All the cannons of the Russian army were moved to the head of Vape city. Condescendingly shelled the French army. The French army now only has mortars, field artillery and howitzers are still on the way. The mortar bubbles couldn't suppress the opponent's firepower at all. Instead, they were suppressed by others because of the range, and several guns and some artillery were lost. The infantry's attack also failed to please, Xiao Jie had no choice but to order the attack to stop, and today's attack ended. Under such circumstances, it was impossible to break through the Russian defense line. Even if it was possible to break through, it would have to be done with people. Xiao Jie didn't have that extravagance, so he had to urge the artillery to arrive as soon as possible. With the power of the Artillery Regiment of the 88th Army and the artillery of the Heavy Artillery Battalion, is it not easy to kill all the poor artillery of the Russian army? Once the biggest threat is eliminated, victory is not far away.
