The combat area Wilkerth is responsible for is just a small episode on both wings of the entire front. What really determines the victory or defeat of both sides is the central area of ​​the front.

This is also the boulevard leading to the city of Toulouse!

On the southern group of the Revolutionary Army of the National Salvation Army, most of the country-Salvation Revolutionary Army, which was responsible for breaking through the two wings and implementing flange encirclement tactics on the main force of the First Division of the Black Dragon Legion led by Carl, have failed.

Even if he was lucky enough to break through, he was quickly driven back by the Black Dragon Legion, which had subsequent reinforcements.

Since the establishment of two divisions of the Black Dragon Legion, the large organization has not changed.

Although Li Wei has been obtaining glory points, the training camp has never been "rest" and a continuous stream of system brainwashing soldiers join the battle sequence of the Black Dragon Legion.

But it cannot withstand the problem of wars faced by the Black Dragon Legion being too frequent and long-term losses!

Therefore, Li Wei simply stopped expanding his organization. When the Black Dragon Legion had a large number of troops, he would use the First Division of Carl's troops as the main force to block people. After a few battles, he would basically consume the extra troops...

As for Gascoll's second division, they have always been the main force of the garrison, with two attacking and defending, so Gascoll was killed...

Before this, Li Wei did not expect Gascoll to die before Carl. After all, Carl had more troops under his command, and as the main offensive force, he encountered far more battles than Gascoll.

On the other hand, Gascoll's troops are divided on various defense lines at any time, and he rarely has the opportunity to visit the front line in person.

However, once he came to the front line and gathered the main force of the Second Division to block the revolutionary army in the country-salvation, Gascoll and his Second Division were wiped out.

After two tentative attacks, Commander Kleibel, commander-in-chief of the Southern Group of the Revolutionary Army of the National Salvation Revolutionary Army, finally ordered the general attack.

The failure of the two-wing encirclement tactic and the urging of the Paris National Salvation Committee in the rear made Claybel unable to continue to delay.

Regardless of the cost, the capture of the city of Toulouse was the military order directly issued by the Paris National Salvation Committee to Claybel.

If Livi could be captured, the French civil war would be declared over. Even if Livi could not be captured and the city of Toulouse, which was valued by Livi, could further increase the morale of the French revolutionary government.

And create favorable conditions for the subsequent recovery of the lost southwestern France region.

In fact, the top leaders of the French Revolutionary Government knew that in order to win this battle, whether Levi was captured or not, the French Revolutionary Government would gain an absolute advantage, because Levi had already dispatched the main force of the First Division, the Black Dragon Legion, who was the most capable of fighting under his command, to guard Toulouse.

As long as the main force of the First Division led by Carl is wiped out, the main force of the Black Dragon Legion will be completely shattered. Even if Li Wei can continue to train the recruits of the Black Dragon Legion, it will take time. This period is enough to allow the country-savior revolutionary army with the advantage of troops to sweep away the fallen leaves.

Because of this, the French Revolutionary Government regarded the annihilation of Li Wei's main force of the First Division of the Black Dragon Legion as a key battle to end the French Civil War.

On the other hand, Li Wei will also defeat the attack of the Southern Army of the Revolutionary Army of the Saving Country and even defeat them as a strategic turning point for himself and the French Revolutionary Government.

Yes, from the perspective of overall strength, Li Wei's New France Kingdom is clearly at a strategic weakness, while the French Revolutionary Government is at its peak.

Their financial crisis was covered up by the top leaders of the National Salvation Committee, and the people below and even the middle and lower levels of government officials did not know the truth. Coupled with the propaganda of the French Revolutionary Government, even many people in the occupied areas of Levi's New France Kingdom felt that the Levi's rebellious forces were likely to be out of reach.

This is also the reason why guerrillas in the rear of the Levi regime became rampant.

The reason why Li Wei's army was unable to take the initiative was because it was too tightly watched by the Southern Army of the Revolutionary Army of the National Salvation Revolutionary Army, including the garrison corps, was firmly nailed into the defense circle by the Revolutionary Army of the National Salvation Revolutionary Army.

This is actually a manifestation of strategic weakness. If it weren't for the logistics and financial situation of the Li Wei regime, it would be dozens of times stronger than the French Revolutionary Government. The French Revolutionary Government could have accumulated strength little by little, and then through frequent low-intensity local wars, it would eat the territory of the Li Wei regime a little bit and consume the military strength of the Li Wei regime.

At least, the morale of those standing corps and garrison corps will gradually become sluggish under this kind of war, thus reaching a qualitative change. At that time, even if you rely on the Black Dragon Legion, you will be unable to support it.

To put it bluntly, such strategic disadvantages were caused by the Spanish Kingdom's disruption and interruption of Li Wei's strategic deployment.

Fortunately, Li Wei calculated that the French Revolutionary Government would inevitably encounter a financial crisis and ushered in a turning point, forcing the French Revolutionary Government to launch the Second Total War without preparation.

However, for Li Wei, there is only one opportunity. Although the French Revolutionary Government in the Second Comprehensive War was uncomfortable, Li Wei's side also had no advantage. The first division's family was on the front line. Once again, Li Wei was wiped out by Gascoll-like entire army, he might really have to learn from Li Zicheng as a bandit...

Unfortunately, the model of the full-scale war system destined that Li Wei would be very uncomfortable to be a bandit.

So Li Wei must win this battle!

The Black Dragon Legion can fight to the death and exchange injuries for injuries, but it must be on the premise of ensuring victory, rather than just pursuing delays and large-scale annihilation of enemies like Gascoll.

Therefore, Carl adopted a steady approach.

At the command of Commander Claybel, hundreds of various artillery artillery arranged on the front line burst into earth-shaking roars, including the six-pound field artillery made by the French Revolutionary Government based on the latest improvements of the British new field artillery, which is the six-pound artillery of the Napoleon era in Levi's previous life.

The six pounds here refer to the weight of solid shells, which is the main way to calculate the front-loaded smoothbore gun in this era.

Because artillery technology is becoming more and more mature, craftsmen from European countries have mastered the casting ratio of artillery shells and charge amounts. Generally speaking, if you know the weight of the bullet and the type of artillery, you can calculate the approximate weight of the artillery.

A large number of solid bullets were fired from different directions of the front positions of the Revolutionary Army of the National Salvation Army. The Revolutionary Army of the National Salvation Army did not adopt the method of concentrated artillery, but instead arranged artillery positions, which could ensure that the enemy positions were bombarded to most of the positions.

Of course, this is also the mainstream artillery defense tactics in the current era.
