MTL - Napoleon II Reborn-Chapter 479 will be outside

Chapter 479 will be outside

On September 2, Bled led 40,000 French troops from the Guyana plateau, crossed the gap between the Orinoco River and the Negro River, and attacked Komunida, where the US military was stationed. Communida was the US military's first line of defense against the infiltration of the 1st French Army into the Pardaos plateau. Here, the US military has deployed a full 20,000 troops. The remaining 60,000 troops were scattered throughout the Pardaos Plateau.

The French army led by Brad consisted of two infantry divisions and other independent units. When Bled's army came outside the city of Komunida, the US military did not react at all. Although not long ago, they had received an order from Cavenster. They were required to be ready at all times to follow his orders and march on the Guyana plateau. However, Cavester's order was quickly and automatically rescinded as Washington's order was issued. The American soldiers who were accustomed to freedom immediately relaxed, so that they didn't know anything about the movements of the French army.

"Marshal, Komunida is 10 kilometers ahead. We can't move forward. Otherwise, we will be discovered by the US military." A major general reported back to Brad. It was now the evening of September 4th, and after two days of rapid march, they finally arrived at Komunida.

"Order the troops to pay attention to vigilance, and then take a rest. In addition, at night, send out reconnaissance troops to conduct a reconnaissance on Komunida. But be careful not to let the U.S. army discover it." Brad said. After two days of rushing, the French soldiers were very tired, and it was getting dark now. So even if you want to take any action against Komunida, you have to wait until tomorrow at least.

"Okay, marshal." The major general took orders. Then it was arranged quickly. After the night fell, two elite reconnaissance companies touched Komunida under the cover of night.

The defense of the U.S. military was very lax, and two elite reconnaissance companies easily tore through the U.S. defense line and got close to the U.S. position. After grabbing a few tongues, the situation of the US military in Comneda was quickly grasped by the French reconnaissance company. Afterwards, they quickly left Komunida by the same route. During this process, none of the American soldiers found them.

At midnight, the two reconnaissance companies returned. They quickly reported the situation of the US military in Comneda. And Brad, who had been waiting for their news, soon got news from the US military.

When he learned that the U.S. military's defense was so lax, and apparently had no defense against the French army, Bligh was very happy. Immediately ordered to launch an attack on Comneda immediately after dawn.

Early in the morning of the second day, the French army immediately went into action. In order to maintain the suddenness of the attack, they did not light a fire to cook, but gnawed dry food on the way to the march.

When the French army arrived outside the city of Comneda, it was time for the American army to open breakfast. Countless U.S. soldiers gathered in twos and threes with lunch boxes, eating bread and drinking delicious soup, and many U.S. soldiers were queuing up. But what both types of people have in common is that their weapons have long since been thrown aside. There wasn't even a sentry on the battlefield, and they were all crowded with the quartermaster, waiting to distribute breakfast.

Seeing this situation, Bligh immediately ordered the troops to attack. The artillery set up dozens of mortars, and fired 5 consecutive mortars as soon as they came up. Nearly 300 shells were fired in less than two minutes, leaving patches of open space among the crowded American crowd. When the artillery began to attack, the two infantry divisions also launched an assault. More than 20,000 infantrymen launched a fierce charge to the US positions.

Regarding the sudden attack by the French army, the U.S. military had no news at all before, so when it was shelled by the French army, the U.S. military immediately became a mess. Some were looking for weapons everywhere, some ran back to the position, and some even went back to shoot. The whole scene can be as chaotic as it needs to be. The American commander tried to organize the American army, but all his efforts were in vain. Americans have always valued their own lives. In the case of a sudden attack, most people chose to save their lives rather than resist the French attack.

After much difficulty, driven by a large number of low-level officers, the U.S. military organized an army of about 10,000 people. However, when they were preparing to enter the position, the charge of the French infantry had already arrived. The violent charge launched by more than 20,000 French infantry made the American soldiers tremble in their legs, and many even dropped their weapons on the spot and started to retreat.

The U.S. commander attempted to hold back the retreating troops. But this time his efforts seemed so weak. Under the charge of the French army, the US army was almost defeated with one blow. With just one charge, the French army occupied the American position. And continued to follow the U.S. attack, has been into the Komunida city. The US military, whose morale has been extremely low, naturally cannot be the opponent of the French army. In just one morning, the French army completely cleared the city of Comneda. In this battle, the French army lost only a few hundred people. However, their victories are very brilliant. Twenty thousand U.S. troops were defeated, among which more than 3,000 U.S. troops died in battle, and as many as 10,000 were captured. The rest all fled. Those people basically ran away when they saw that the situation was wrong at the beginning. Fortunately, they ran fast, otherwise the fate waiting for them would definitely be either to die in battle or to enter a French prisoner-of-war camp.

After occupying the city of Komunida, Brad immediately asked to send a telegram to Davout, reporting the good news to him. Then order the troops to rest and reorganize, ready to continue the attack at any time. The food and ammunition hoarded by the U.S. military in the city of Comneda completely fell into the hands of the French army. For the time being, Brad doesn't have to worry about supplies at all.

On September 7, Bled led his army to leave Comneda and continued to attack the Pardaos plateau. At this time, the news that Komunida was captured by the French army was also reported to the cities behind by those defeats, and the generals behind, after learning the news, did not dare to neglect at all, and immediately sent the French army Word of the attack was sent back to El Salvador.

"General, I just got the news that Comunida was captured by the French army." Robert reported to Cavester with a telegram. His expression was so calm that no one could see any emotional fluctuations at all.

"What? The French actually took the initiative to attack. What are they trying to do?" Cavester said in surprise.

"Maybe they are really preparing to attack Ireland. The action of the French 1st Army is just to attract our attention." Brady guessed.

"Anyway, this is our chance. Since the French took the initiative to attack, there is no need for us to follow Washington's orders. We can't just be beaten and not fight back." Cavenster excited Said.

"General, that's true. But I think we should ask Washington for instructions before we act. It would be better if we do that," Robert suggested.

"That's not necessary." Cavester said, frowning.

But, at Robert's insistence, they sent a telegram to Washington anyway. Ask the General Staff.

Unexpectedly, Zominsk rejected their request, and Zominsk forced Kavenster and the others not to attack the French army and to take a defensive position.

After receiving the telegram from Zominsk, Kavenster flew into a rage. The telegram was torn into pieces on the spot. "I really don't know what that old guy is thinking. He actually asked us to take a defensive position at this time. Does he really want the whole of South America to be occupied by the French army before agreeing to our attack?" Cavester scolded road.

Both Brady and Robert also looked gloomy, but not as intense as Cavenster. The reason why Zominsk issued such an order is actually not difficult to understand. Now they don't know the intentions of the French army at all. On the west coast of Europe, hundreds of thousands of French troops are ready to go. Once Ireland is in an emergency, the U.S. military must provide full support to Ireland. However, the elite U.S. Army is now basically concentrated in the eastern North Atlantic island chain and South America. As for the domestic army, although the number of them seems quite large~www.novelbuddy.com~, most of them have never experienced war Recruits, sending such recruits to the battlefield is simply letting them die. Therefore, the intention of the US government is that once Ireland needs reinforcements, it will immediately draw troops from South America. The vacancies in South American troops were transferred from North America. Although this is a bit troublesome, it can play a role in training recruits. At this time, the U.S. military had already regarded the French 1st Army as a training partner for the U.S. army. It's just that this kind of training is still very dangerous, and life may be lost at any time. However, if they can survive the war, it also means that they are at least qualified to go to the battlefield. Ready to be sent to the front line.

However, all of this, Cavenster did not understand or understand at all.

"General, what should we do now?" Brady asked.

"What else can I do? Immediately notify the frontline troops and launch an attack on the French army across the board." Cavester ordered through gritted teeth.

"General, this shows that we are resisting Washington's order." Robert said with some concern.

"Hmph! They don't understand the situation in South America at all. I'm in charge here, so you just follow my orders. I'll be responsible if something goes wrong," Cavester said firmly.
