After Conrobel and Bauquet arrived at Pelissier's location, Pelissier immediately informed Conrobel and General Bauquet of the next action plan.

Conrobel and Boques looked at General Pelissier with surprise. They didn't understand why Commander Pelissier had to act in advance, or if something had changed.

After General Perlisier finished talking about the deployment of the operation, General Canrobel, who had this question, asked Commander Perlisier: "Your Excellency Commander, isn't our original plan to act tomorrow? One day action, and rush action! Did something happen?"

Pelissier glanced at Conrobel and nodded in response: "Something did happen!"

Afterwards, Commander Pelissier told Conrobert and Bosquet about Brigadier General Trosch's battle on the south bank.

The expressions of Conrobel and Bosque were even more shocked. The combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Russian Empire had broken through the bottom line of their cognition.

Brigadier General Trosch was able to achieve such a record with only 5,000 troops. Is this because the combat effectiveness of the British and French armies is too strong, or the combat effectiveness of the Russian Imperial Army is too weak.

"This...this is...too..." Major General Bosquet was so surprised that he was speechless.

"In the next period of time, the soldiers on the south bank of Sevastopol will definitely devote all their strength to the battle for the bastion, so we must create a big movement on the north bank to attract their attention! ' General Pelissier responded decisively to Canrobert and Boques.

"What about the British side?" General Conrobel asked Pelissier, "Do you need to discuss this matter with them?"

"There's no time left! We must act as soon as possible!" Perlisier showed the determination and determination as an excellent commander.

A good commander must have a keen sense of war and be able to make important decisions in extreme times.

Any hesitation will tip the scales of war toward the other side.

The historical offensive and defensive battle of the Sevastopol fortress was due to the indecision of the British and French commanders, which gave the commanders in the Sevastopol fortress a lot of time to fortify and fortify Sevastopol. So that countless British and French troops bleed in front of the fortress.

If it wasn't for the historical commander Pelissier who captured Sevastopol at all costs, I'm afraid Sevastopol would really have become a bloodletting tank for the British and French armies.

During this period of time, Sevastopol has not yet started the road of fortification and fortification, coupled with the constant panic inside Sevastopol, so it is easy for the British and French troops to occupy the south bank near Sevastopol A fortress near the port settlement.

If you wait a while longer, it will be difficult to capture this fortress of restoring morale.

As soon as Commander Pelissier's voice fell, General Canrobert and General Bosquet hurriedly said: They will definitely obey Commander Pelissier's order, please Commander Pelissier give them an order!

Commander Pelissier immediately handed over the task of attacking the Star Fortress to General Canrobert of the 1st Division. As for the 2nd Division, Major General Bosquet also replaced Britain and guarded the flanks of the 1st Division.

"That's all I want to say! How to act, the staff of the headquarters will give you the plan in a while!" Pelissier glanced at his pocket watch and said to Canrobert and Bauquet: "It is now 3 At 20 minutes, you only have 1 hour and 20 minutes to organize your team! Around 4:40, I need to see an elite division! Do you understand?"

Although Commander Pelissier's request was a bit difficult, Canrobel and Bosquet could only bite the bullet and promise that Pelissier would gather the troops in the shortest possible time!

"Go! Don't let me down!" General Perissier waved his hand and gave Canrobert and Bosquet an "expulsion order".

Shortly after Canrobert and General Bosquet left, the expeditionary staff passed an offensive plan to Perissier.

"Commander Pelissier, this plan is a revised plan based on our attack plan on June 6 (that is, tomorrow)! I don't know if you are satisfied!" Standing beside Commander Pelisier The staff told Pelissier.

Pelissier spent 4 minutes carefully reading the plan of the staff, and then closed the plan.

Under the uneasy gaze of the staff officer, Perissier said, "The plan went well! But..."

"But what?" the staff officer asked Pelissier nervously.

"You have timed out by 10 minutes!" Pelissier pointed to the pocket watch and said to the staff of the staff.

"I..." The staff officer of the staff heaved a sigh of relief, he thought the plan would be rejected.

"Remember to hand it in on time next time!" Perlisier took out a pencil from his uniform pocket, signed his name, and handed the plan back to the staff: "Now you immediately communicate this plan to those who need to implement it. The planned troops, hurry up!"

"Yes!" The staff officer hurriedly responded with a salute, and then trotted away from Pelissier.

At 4:40 p.m., the June sun was still hanging brightly in the western sky, emitting a seemingly endless amount of light and heat.

There is not a single cloud in the blue sky at the moment. Near the north bank of Sevastopol under the sky, a team of nearly 20,000 people is being led by their division commander Conrobel, divided into two columns and heading towards the distant star fortress. march.

Behind this unit are two artillery regiments consisting of six artillery battalions (eighteen artillery companies), under which are further 108 artillery pieces, of which 72 are 6-pound Napoleonic field guns and 12-pound Napoleonic field guns There are 36 guns, and its lineup can be described as gorgeous.

Not to mention the capture of a dilapidated bastion such as the Star Fortress, it is more than enough to attack the four-corner fortress that the Austrian Empire is proud of.

The artillery regiment stopped about a kilometer away from the Star Fortress. The two artillery regiment commanders riding on horses divided their artillery into two rows and lined them up. placed in the back.

"Reload!"

Following an order from the commander of the artillery regiment, the soldiers of the artillery regiment pried open the shell box and loaded the shells into the artillery.

After about 10 minutes, all the guns were fully loaded.

The regimental commander holding the command knife pointed the tip of the knife into the distance, looked at the bastion, and shouted, "Shoot!"

108 shells flew out of the barrel and shot towards the star fortress in the distance.

The cannonballs like raindrops fell into the vicinity of the star fortress one after another, and the ground began to tremble.

After the more than 2,000 defenders in the Star Fortress heard the bastion's movement, they couldn't help but panic.

"Sir... we... can we really hold on?" the soldier behind the fortress parapet asked the officer beside him with a musket in his hand.

"I don't know either!" The commander responded to the soldier with a trembling voice.

He is also not sure whether they can really defend here, because this fortress doesn't have many counterattack weapons at all, only a few cannons from the time of the Holy King (Alexander I) are pitifully staying in the fortress, whether they can be fired is still a problem, The walls of the fortress have also not been repaired for a long time...

"careful!"

Just when the commander was thinking about the shortcomings of the fortress, a shout suddenly came from his ear.

The recovered officer raised his head subconsciously and looked into the distance. From his perspective, a cannonball was smashing towards the parabola where he was located in a parabolic trajectory.

Happened!

Before the commander could react, the cannonball smashed down with lightning speed. The unlucky commander was hit by the flying cannonball, and Yingming was lost on the spot.

The explosion started the next second after the officer was hit, and the impact took away several soldiers and the temporarily constructed parapet.

The soldiers surrounding the fortress began to consciously stay away from the parapet, and the soldiers inside the fortress were also not feeling well.

Because the entire fortress has not been repaired for more than 30 years, the walls of the fortress have become very fragile.

The shell easily penetrated the wall, and the resulting explosion directly injured the defending troops in the fortress.

When the troops of the 1st Division approached the Star Fortress, the entire fortress was already full of loopholes under the attack of big and small Napoleon cannons.

Looking at the dilapidated fortress in front of him, Conrobel couldn't help but stunned. He couldn't believe that the fortress built by the Russian Empire had reached such a level of tofu.

So, Conrobel silently overturned the planned siege.

A fortress in this state, a siege is just a meaningless waste of time.

"superior!"

Under Conrobel's order, the soldiers of the 1st Division of UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com changed from a column to a horizontal team, encircling the Star Fortress in a fan shape.

Seeing this scene, the defenders in the fortress immediately called their adjutant and said, "Go to the port immediately, and let the warships in the port point their naval guns around our star fortress!"

"However, this will cost our troops!" the adjutant responded to the fortress commander.

"I can't handle so much now!" The fortress commander gritted his teeth and responded to the adjutant, and then ordered his soldiers to move the artillery to the city wall, and he would use the only artillery in the fortress to attack them.

The adjutant who left the Star Fortress on horseback soon came to the port near the port on the north shore, where he saw an even more desperate scene.

At this time, the Russian ships moored in the Sevastopol fortress were being shelled, and several ships were set on fire.

More importantly, the attacking empire did not enter the port of Sevastopol, but lined up outside the port to launch coverage bombing into the port.

However, their fleet artillery was unable to counteract it effectively, and the technological generation gap between the two had reached a desperate point.

"The Russian Empire... it's over!"
