Chapter 651： A missed victory
This artillery bombardment, which was completely unequal in range and crisis, lasted for about half an hour before it stopped. Under the fierce shelling of the British Kingdom, the temporary artillery positions built by Russia did not provide any protection at all. And black smoke filled the entire artillery position.
Nearly 100 Imperial Russian artillery pieces were completely turned into a pile of **** under the firepower of the British Kingdom far surpassing them. Those precious Imperial Russian artillerymen also suffered heavy losses. The waves "blown" their limbs off, and some artillerymen were completely deaf due to the rupture of their eardrums due to the continuous explosions.
When the smoke cleared, Pavlov immediately realized that his artillerymen were probably all dead.
The bad situation is not limited to this one. Due to the long-term shelling of the British Kingdom, the morale of the soldiers in the position has also been weakened by the continuous shelling.
At this moment, Pavlov had the idea of retreating.
Anyway, his purpose was to contain the British and Turkish troops on the Joyana River. They were lucky to be able to rely on a wave of surprise attacks for the time being, and now it was time to retreat.
However, it was a little unwilling to retreat directly to Pavlov. He had already attacked here. As long as he persisted, he could advance to the north bank of Sevastopol after the arrival of Bakhchisaray's large troops.
As long as I can keep it here!
Desire occupied Pavlov's brain, completely driving out Pavlov's reason.
At this time, he was like a confident gambler, betting all his net worth together with the weights he had won before.
As long as he can be firmly nailed to this position like a nail, then he will be able to advance to the pinnacle of his life.
Of course, during this period, countless soldiers must be killed because of his actions, but what does it matter?
As the saying goes, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will die.
Pavlov will use the blood of Russian soldiers to forge a famous road.
Just when Pavlov was confident that he could hold on, Marshal Raglan ordered his artillery to adjust the position again. This time, Marshal Raglan aimed at the position of the Russian Empire.
He wants to let the Russians on the ground understand that artillery is not a unique product of Russia.
The British Kingdom also has artillery, and the quality and accuracy of the British Kingdom's artillery are much better than theirs!
After about 10 minutes, the artillery brigadier general reported to Marshal Raglan: "Your Excellency, the artillery has been calibrated! It can be fired!"
"Let them see how powerful you are!" Commander Raglan gave the order with a serious expression.
"Yes!" The Artillery Brigadier saluted Commander Raglan and left.
Marshal Raglan, whose face was slightly pale, couldn't help coughing violently. Marshal Reynio, who was standing beside Marshal Raglan, hurriedly came to Marshal Raglan's side, helped Marshal Raglan, and then gently with his hands. Gently patted the back of Marshal Jiejue.
"I'm old! I'm old!" Marshal Raglan shook his head and said with emotion: "I thought I could work without sleeping for a few days and nights back then, but now I'm exhausted just standing there for a while!"
"Time is not forgiving!" Marshal Reynio also sighed with emotion.
"Yeah!" Marshal Raglan nodded, his eyes revealed a look of reminiscence, and his tone couldn't help but say in a low voice: "After our generation has all left, I am afraid not many people will know that legendary era. ! One will hear only a few words of it in the history books..."
"Ragren, I never thought so!" Marshal Reynio said with a hint of longing for the past, "I think that legendary era will never be forgotten! He will become our human history. The last bright pearl!"
Born at the end of the Great Revolution and growing up during the Napoleonic Empire, Reño believes that the new ideas bred by the Great Revolution have quietly changed the world.
No one can erase that legendary era, and the princes and generals who stand out in the legendary era will certainly be remembered by the era.
"I hope so!" Marshal Raglan responded to Marshal Reigno with a wry smile.
"Furthermore, although the legendary era has ended, it does not mean that it will not appear again! It is always people who create the era. I believe that more and more legends will emerge in the future!" Marshal Raglan responded with a firm tone: "The future will definitely be better than the past!"
Marshal Raglan smiled and didn't speak. Living in the past, he did not agree with what Marshal Reigno said, but he was unwilling to refute it.
The second round of artillery bombardment began during the dialogue between Marshal Reigno and Marshal Raglan, and the morale of the Russian Empire began to drop in the British kingdom.
No one wants to face the power of the cannonball with their flesh and blood, and some of the Russian Empire soldiers who leaned their backs on the sandbags closed their eyes and started to pray.
The fortifications carefully built by the British Kingdom were destroyed by their own hands, and the smoke of gunpowder rose again.
Sitting in the temporary command post, Commander Nepavlov watched the bombing positions with binoculars and prayed that Bakhchisarai's troops would arrive sooner.
While Commander Pavlov was anxiously waiting for the arrival of Bakhchisarai reinforcements, the adjutant he dispatched to Bakhchisarai also arrived at Bakhchisarai at this time.
The adjutant who entered the Bakhchisarai command center immediately reported to the current supreme commander of Bakhchisarai, Grand Duke Mikhail, and his military advisor, Marshal Jomini.
"Did something happen to the Joyana River?" Mikhail immediately asked the adjutant.
"His Royal Highness, there is indeed a small situation!" The adjutant hurriedly told Mikhail what happened to the Joyana River.
Mikhail's face instantly showed a happy smile, he patted the adjutant's shoulder and said, "Good job!"
A look of surprise also appeared on Jomini's face. Pavlov's actions in the Joyana River went much more smoothly than he had planned.
"His Royal Highness, I am seeking your help on the order of Commander Pavlov. I hope you can immediately send troops to Bakhchisaray. As long as you move quickly, we can enter Sevastopol!" The adjutant pleaded with Mikhail. road.
"Mr. Jomini, what do you think?" Mikhail immediately asked Jomini's opinion.
After thinking for a while, Yomini said to the adjutant, "If you capture the north shore of Sevastopol, how will you deal with the naval guns parked in the port!"
"This..." The adjutant was obviously taken aback by Yomini's question. They really had nothing to do with the naval guns.
Facing the silence of the adjutant, Marshal Jomini said again: "I will send you two more soldiers from the army to the Joana River to help you take Sevastopol! However, before the troops arrive, you must Just keep it there!"
"Please rest assured, we will do our best!" The adjutant hurriedly assured Jomini.
After the adjutant left the headquarters, Mikhail curiously asked Jomini if there was a way to defend against naval guns.
Jomini told Mikhail that he also had nothing to do.
But it would be nice if the Russian army could storm the northern shore of Sevastopol.
At the very least, it is better to at least slightly weaken the war potential of the North Shore than to do nothing at all.
Besides, his original plan was not and also did not have a way to fight against the naval port fleet.
"Just do as you said!" Mikhail nodded and said to Marshal Jomini: "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to rest first! Call me again when you're approaching departure!"
Neither Archduke Mikhail nor Jomini thought that this mobilization would cost them so much time that they missed the best attack time.
…
At this time, Pavlov didn't know yet. He needed to hold on for at least 6 or 7 hours before he could get Bakhchisaray's support.
In his thinking, he needs to persist for at least 2 hours.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, when only the last rays of the sun remained, the British artillery finally stopped after bombing for nearly an hour.
At the same time, a regiment of the British Highland Brigade, led by Major General Ebel, and the Zhuav regiment led by Major General Bazan, appeared at the foot of the mountain.
"Attack!" Raglan and Raynio immediately gave orders to the adjutant beside them.
The adjutant rode to Ebes and Bazin to convey to them the meaning of the two marshals.
"Attack!" Bazin and Ebes shouted loudly at the same time.
The Zhuav regiment and the Highland Brigade began to advance towards the positions of the Russian Empire.
Seeing this scene, Pavlov in the temporary command post subconsciously wanted to use artillery to destroy the two armies, but found that there was no artillery in his hands.
After the Zhuav regiment and the Highland regiment were able to successfully reach the effective range of the Miner and Lee Enfield rifles, they stopped and started to reload the ammunition.
The Russian troops on the position immediately pulled the trigger to attack the British and French troops. Because the range of the rifles used by the Russian and British and French troops was different, this made it difficult for the Russian troops to hit the British and French troops at the same distance, but the British and French troops were able to easily. hit them.
This time is also no exception. In addition to hitting a few "lucky people" (also called unlucky ones), the bullets of the Russian Empire, UU reading www. uukanshu. com didn't kill many people at all.
When the British and French troops were ready, they lined up in two or three pairs under the command of the commander.
"Release!" The commander ordered the British and French soldiers to shoot.
Britain and France pulled the trigger almost at the same time, gunshots rang out, and screams came from the positions of the Russian Empire.
The United Kingdom and France, which used rifles far exceeding the range of the Russian Empire, eliminated more than 100 enemies in the first round of design. The Russian Empire soldiers who continued to stay in their positions shivered even more after seeing the precise shooting of the Highland Brigade and the Zhuav Regiment. .
"Quick! Go and order them to shoot! Don't let them attack!" Pavlov immediately became furious when he saw the Russian soldiers who were hiding in the position and did not dare to show their faces. He hurriedly issued an order to the adjutant.
"Yes!" After the adjutant saluted Pavlov, he immediately ran in the direction of the position.
However, his luck was a little off. When the adjutant arrived near the position, a bullet hit the adjutant's head, and the adjutant fell to the ground.
The Russian imperial soldiers were even more afraid of the Highland Brigade and the Zhuav Regiment, and they were able to reach the vicinity of the position without many people blocking them.
The Highland Brigade and the Zhuav Regiment, which arrived at the position, quickly entered the position to meet the Russian Imperial soldiers.
