Prince Carl now has only 180,000 troops in his hands, of which 100,000 infantry are arranged on the Orleans defense line, and most of his hands are high-mobile troops such as cavalry.

These more than 80,000 troops were transferred to Orleans, and they could not block the entrance to the Vosges!

When he was worried, he suddenly thought of the Bavarian Corps that had just been reinforced. The two armies are currently supporting him day and night.

"Sixty thousand new troops! It seems that the new troops can only be brought forward. Pass my order, and the First Bavarian Army went directly to Orleans to support... The Second Army rushed straight to Dijon!"

"Send a telegram to the Prime Minister and tell him that I am seriously short of shells here... I can still raise food on the spot, and I can save medicine, but artillery can't be without shells!"

"No matter what, logistics supply must keep up..."

Prince Carl did not know that Orleans' Garbate had already begun to organize a large number of guerrillas in southern France through its own command system.

Many military warehouses sealed by Napoleon III were opened. As long as the French people were young and middle-aged, everyone could collect guns and ammunition, and even * could do it.

If you don’t check it, you won’t know it. If you check it, you will be shocked! Only then did Gan Bida realize how rich the family left by the Emperor is. The Bonaparte family really attaches importance to military construction. Over the years, the Emperor has had countless weapons in stock.

In just one month in September, the Southern statistics issued 350,000 rifles and millions of bullets. Although they were all old Minni rifles, the number was already very scary.

For guerrillas, the cheap and reliable Minni rifle is more suitable because this rifle does not require a fixed-loading bullet with a metal shell. You can process Minnie bullets by yourself by using some * and warheads.

These brave French soldiers tried every means to attack the Prussian army, and the trains marching on the railway tracks became their most concerned targets.

The First and Second Bavarian Army were allocated to Prince Carl by Moltke, and the two troops were attacked countless times along the way by train.

A captain wrote in his memoir, "At night, we parked at an unknown small station, with stars in the sky and the autumn wind outside the carriage was bleak..."

"No one knows why we stopped, but there were faint explosions coming from afar... Half an hour later, the major informed me that the logistics train of the Pu army in front was attacked, and the * buried under the rails happened to blow up the carriage loading shells. The chain reaction turned the rails over 100 meters and the train into wreckage..."

"I was helpless, and my troops could only get off the car and march forward on foot, but the fearful night was opened..."

"At one o'clock in the evening, on the field path parallel to the railway, the torch raised by the Bavarian soldiers pulled out a long dragon, and they could not see at all. The tired soldiers were approaching Orleans..."

"But when we were most tired, gunfire suddenly burst into the woods on the left wing of the team, and bullets shot over. My zombie officer couldn't dodge and was directly shot..."

"The team suddenly became panicked. It was difficult to identify the enemy's position in the dark night. Although we fought fiercely, no one knew how many attackers were killed..."

"The shooting of both sides lasted for a quarter of an hour, and the enemy's firepower had not stopped, not dense but continuous..."

"Until the end, the battalion commander sent a company of soldiers to conduct a hand-to-hand attack, rushing into the woods, and then dispelling the disgusting sneak attackers!"

"Who knows this is the beginning of the nightmare... From that moment on, we encountered countless sneak attacks throughout the night march, and the heavens in the dark French country know how many hatred guerrillas are hiding?"

"They are not many people. Judging from the shooting density, they are just a small army of fifty or sixty people, and even a super-small team of twenty or thirty people..."

"There are not many people, but the blow to morale is very serious. The reorganized army of 30,000 was attacked by these flies overnight, and only advanced twenty kilometers in six hours. This is simply a shame!"

"After dawn, the army temporarily repaired for half an hour. After statistics, we found that 82 people died in battle that night, and as many as 320 people were injured in the chaos..."

"And the price the enemy paid was only six corpses. Such a result made the entire army very depressed..."

"But the Prussians' orders were very strict. They ordered us to arrive in Orleans within 12 hours. Where the Prussians had been fighting hard for two days. I heard that the French were completely crazy!"

"Faced with military orders, we have no choice. The overall situation of German unification has been decided. Now is the critical moment to fight for interests for Bavaria. The more we get in this war, the easier the king of Munich can be at the negotiating table!"

"Your Majesty, we love! May God bless you and cheer you up..."

The captain didn't know what kind of cruel battlefield was waiting for him. The commander marched forcibly despite the soldiers' fatigue. He knew that the soldiers needed to rest but did not dare to issue this order.

They knew very well that the probability of these guerrilla attacks could be reduced only during the day, and in order to arrive in Orleans within the time period specified in the order, they could only force their troops.

The scenes seen along the way shocked all the Bavarian officers and soldiers. The French put forward a strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields. All the villages were empty. Everything that could become war materials was taken away, and those that could not be taken away were burned.

There are even extreme villages that burn down houses left over for hundreds of years, and the French plains are filled with black smoke.

After traveling more than ten kilometers, you can see only a few dozen French people. The old, weak, sick and disabled all stared at these invaders with anger. If they could kill people, they would have died ten thousand times long ago!

Drinking cold water and eating dry food, the Bavarian Legion began a forcibly marched in the enemy's hinterland. The commander knew that it would be impossible for the entire army to arrive in Orleans in twelve hours. He could only let the entire army set out first. As long as the vanguard could arrive on time, he might be able to get Prince Carl's forgiveness, right?

The cavalry ran wildly during the day and finally arrived at the Prussian defense line in the northeast of Orleans at 7 pm. When they saw the battlefield of fighting, they all exclaimed.

The northeast is the rear of the Pu Army, where medical tents are everywhere, and all the wounded soldiers who can still be rescued are sent here, and the air is filled with the smell of blood and the pungent smell of disinfectant.

Screams were endless, and all Pu Jun retreating from the battlefield were in a panic as if he had walked in hell.

"What is the battle ahead? Can anyone tell me how it is?" the cavalry battalion commander asked loudly.

"Crazy! All the French are crazy..." Many of the wounded soldiers were already hysterical, and their eyes were full of fear.

"This is the city of Joan of Arc! We invaded this place and were punished by heaven!"

"The French people shouted the name of the Saint to charge us. A battalion was destroyed by artillery fire, and only a few dozen people remained and refused to retreat!"

"There are French people everywhere, and military flags from different places rushed up with waving... I heard countless accents..."

"The soldiers of all France are gathered here... God, please mercy on me..."
