Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 2443 "Sheep" and "Wolf" ([-])
The dragoons were originally derived from mounted infantry, but before the French Revolution, the uniforms of the dragoons were no longer suitable for dismounted infantry, although their equipment did not change much.

The cavalry must first have horses, but during the Battle of the Pyramids, the cavalry, together with scholars and baggage, were surrounded in a square formation because they were too precious.

The battle of Marengo used cavalry, and it was the heavy cavalry charge that turned the tide of the battle, but Napoleon did not take them with him when he crossed the Alps, as can be seen from David's painting, except for the first ruler in gorgeous court clothes In addition, the background is all infantry, they pull the cannon, and the cavalry is the follow-up reinforcements.

All in all, before the Battle of Marengo, Napoleon used camouflage to convince all the spies that the old, weak, sick and disabled he was inspecting in Dijon were the army he was about to lead, and the army he really wanted to mobilize had already passed a small group The way of movement was assembled in Geneva.

This time he assembled a group of people for a military parade in Brussels, but he himself was nowhere to be seen. There were not many people who came to the military parade, probably just a column guarding a flag bearer, and there was nothing that a military parade should have. It looks magnificent.

Where did Bonaparte go?Good question, people all over the world seem to be looking for him, especially Prussia and the British, with the British ambassador to Hamburg, George Rumbold, being restricted, Prussia is almost discredited, although the French army is not stationed in Hamburg , but Prussia's status as a guarantor country in the Armed Neutral Alliance is in jeopardy. If the Prussian royal family cedes Hamburg at this time, then the power in the Prussian neutral area will be emptied, and those small and medium-sized cities will turn to the Russian camp.

The United Kingdom has not yet issued a statement saying that the assassination has nothing to do with the United Kingdom, and it has not said that it will extradite Pisgru. After all, Pisgru is not the only rebel under the protection of the United Kingdom.

There is also no basis for calling for Rumbold's release, which just makes people feel restless.Since 1800, the French cavalry organization began to change, from mixed heavy cavalry and light cavalry, gradually changed to heavy cavalry concentrated together, light cavalry concentrated together, and the cannon was recast, and a The twelve-pounder became two six-pounders.

Still the same problem, cannons are easy to recast, but cavalry horses are hard to come by.The combination of artillery and cavalry of the French army is probably like this. When the enemy infantry escapes the devastating damage caused by the precise aiming of the artillery shells, a large number of cavalry will be used to drive those infantry away and prevent them from moving to a new area.

It was impossible for the infantry to retreat, so they had to resist the cavalry, and the French cavalry would line up in two lines. The first line was to disrupt the infantry formation to open the way for the new force behind, and the second line attacked the chaotic infantry.During the Battle of Marengo, Keleman's cavalry participated in 4 charges and 5 melees in 5 hours. Then retreated to the second line.

People sometimes explode potentials that they don't know about. Georgiana was very tired the day before and didn't sleep well, and she appeared at the military parade the next day.

Of course, she did not represent anyone in the parade. The mayors or representatives of Belgium and French officials stood on the rostrum.

Perhaps because of this specification, not many soldiers participated in the military parade. After the military parade was held, Georgiana visited the nearby military hospital.

This hospital has received soldiers from various countries, like the Belgian women who would bandage soldiers from various belligerent countries.If they think a big fight is going to break out, they will prepare bandages.

Now the hospital is empty, but once a war breaks out, the hospital will not only be overcrowded.Even though the windows were open for ventilation, there was still a disgusting smell in the hospital. In contrast, the smell of disinfectant was not so bad, like the smell of dead mice and cut grass. Fortunately, she didn't eat breakfast.

After visiting the hospital, the next stop was to go to the "Imperial Academy of Arts and Sciences" in Brussels, but before that, Georgiana was arranged to rest in a place for a while, and then the police who had visited the castle the night before came, and he took A man approached, who looked to be in his forties, with ginger hair, a beard on his lips, and a listless look.

"Are you White Shavitt?" Georgiana asked.

"And you are that mistress." The ginger-haired man sniffed. "You are different from what the rumors say."

Georgiana didn't ask him what she was rumored to be like.

"Please sit down, sir."

Under the strange gaze of the Belgian policeman, White sat down, smoking a cigarette out of habit.

"Do you mind?" He asked symbolically.

Georgiana didn't answer him, so he lit a cigarette on his own, and the room was filled with the smell of low-quality tobacco.

"Smoking less." She suggested, "You will shorten your life in this way."

He smiled wryly.

"People die every day. I have seen many people who thought they would not die, but they all died in the end."

"How have you been?" Georgiana asked.

"There is hot water, food, and French red wine every day. What do you think I am missing?" White said with a smile.

"You don't want to be free?" Georgiana asked.

"I've been homeless on the street for two years, I think I'm free enough." White said blankly, "Just ask what you want."

"you are married?"

"No, will you marry me?"

"have kids?"

White laughed, "I'm not married, how can I have children."

"Many children in my shelter have no father." Georgiana smiled, "or their father loves freedom too much."

"No kids," White said defiantly, "no pets, no parents, just me, enough?"

"You don't look like a child-loving person. Why did John Fielding give you the job of looking after key witnesses?"

White stared at Georgiana for a moment, his eyes sharp but not at all languid.

"Do you know what these are for?"

"I just want to get to know you better," Georgiana said. "I don't know, have you heard... Bonaparte wants to promote public trials and jury systems in the Rhine region. I think you and the Bow Street set will meet." Useful."

White laughed.

"why are you laughing?"

"You call him Bonaparte?"

"What's this..."

"Tell me what you call him privately, and I'll tell you my story."

"What if I didn't tell you?"

"I'm going back to eat steak and drink red wine, where are you going?" White said vulgarly.

"Don't talk like that to the lady," said the policeman at the door.

"Just this? You don't want anything else?" Georgiana asked.

"Send a girl to the barracks?"

Georgiana shook her head and almost couldn't help but want to leave.

"This is your last chance." The policeman said, "No one will come in the future."

White was silent, looking at Georgiana.

"Because of 1.5 pounds of beef." White took a puff on his cigarette and said slowly, "Do you think a person is worth dying for?"

"Sentenced to hang for stealing beef?" asked Georgiana.

"No, the judge didn't sentence him to death, but only let him stay in prison for three months, and he hanged himself in prison." White said calmly, "Do you want to hear this story?"

"I'm all ears." She also said calmly.

Then White began to tell the story that was destined to make people feel terrible.
