Chapter 1473： Back carbine

"What a special!" Louis stomped his feet twelvely. So he ordered loudly:

"French cavalry, attack, kill this group of **** Spanish cavalry!"

However, at this time, tens of thousands of French peasants were blocked on the north side of the gate. Although the French knights were ready to go, they couldn't go out at all.

In desperation, the French knight had to make a detour from the east gate and wanted to attack the Spanish cavalry who blocked the French farmers. However, as soon as they left the east gate, behind the Spanish earth wall + trench work outside the east gate, there was a dense gunshot-the Spanish Musquet fired the gun ...

The French knight is very hard, but that is for cold weapons. Facing the Musquette musket of 50 grams of overweight projectile, the French knight could only escape in embarrassment and lost dozens of bodies ...

Then, an embarrassing scene appeared-tens of thousands of people were stuck in the north gate of Naples City, facing a dilemma. Inside the city, the French knights desperately stopped the peasants from turning around and prevented them from going back. Outside the city, the Spanish halter cavalry stared fiercely at those French peasants, who dared to run out, all drew their swords and chopped to death.

As for driving the farmers to the city? The Spanish halter cavalry tried it, but the French musketeers were beaten back by the city ...

The French also brought a lot of musketeers this time. In order to prepare for the war, Louis XII sent people to Nuremberg, Germany to buy a lot of German muskets. Although it is not as powerful as the Musket gun, it can be used to defend the city, but there is no problem. What's more, there are even more terrifying French cannons on the head of the city ...

As a result, the three forces of the French army, the French peasants and the Spanish cavalry stalemate at the north gate of the city of Naples ...

In the next few days, the three parties were stalemate on the north gate, and no one could move. In the glory of the knights, the French knight masters were reluctant to start their own peasants, and they could only stop those French peasants from turning them back. And those farmers dare not go out, because the Spaniards will kill them ...

...

At this time, the French side was very anxious up and down, not knowing what to do. After all, such stalemate is not the way.

As a result, John Rafi couldn't help secretly releasing the pigeons in the middle of the night and asked Marin for help ...

The pigeons fly fast, traveling hundreds of kilometers or even thousands of kilometers a day, and Marin also quickly received the news. Marin was not happy to learn that Gonzalo de Cordova was so overwhelming. After all, Marin intends to let Spain and France desperately, not let Spain abuse France. So, Marin quickly wrote back to John Rafi, giving suggestions ...

"What? Let the tens of thousands of farmers go hungry for a few days and then throw bread outside the city?" Louis XII was a little surprised.

"Yes, Your Majesty, these farmers are afraid to go out because they are afraid of death. However, they are hungry for a few days, making them jealous and hungry for food. At this time, we throw bread out of the city and these hungry farmers will go out of the city Picked up ... "John Rafi respected.

"Okay, just do it!"

Then, the French army stopped distributing food to these tens of thousands of farmers. Three days later, many French farmers were already hungry and dizzy. At this time, the news came suddenly-a lot of bread was thrown outside the city walls!

So, for bread, these hungry French farmers desperately squeezed out of the city and even trampled on. When they successfully squeezed out of the city and found bread outside the city wall, they were surprised to find that the city gate behind was actually closed ...

Then these French farmers cried out and wanted to go back. However, all the French soldiers in the city withdrew their heads back, pretending not to see ...

...

"There are great people in the city!" Gonzalo de Cordoba sighed. Originally, he thought that the peasants depended on the city gate, so that the city gate could not be closed. As a result, the French had a simple strategy to let the hungry farmers go out and pick up their own bread ...

After thinking about it, Gonzalo de Cordova sent people to take the French farmers out of the city back and use them as cannon fodder for the siege. Although it is of little use, it can always be explained to the country, proving that Gonzalo de Cordoba is not a coward ...

...

Of course, Marin's strategy is far more than a "bread plan". Along with the bread counter, there is also a good idea ...

"What? Back to carbine? What do you mean?" Louis XII was a little dumbfounded after hearing it.

John Lafitte rode on the horse and performed a "back carbine" tactic with a knight, then explained:

"'Carbine back' means that we pretend to run away and the other party will chase us. But when we suddenly attacked them back, they would be unexpected and easily defeated ..."

"Specifically?"

"Pick a rainy day, our 20,000 cavalry and tens of thousands of elite infantry **** you out of the city and pretend to escape back to the country. The enemy will definitely send someone to chase because your majesty is here. At this time, our knight suddenly attacked back, very It is easy to break the enemy ... "

"How do you know we can win? The enemy is not weak ..."

"Your Majesty, the subjects know that the enemy is not weak, but their weakness is based on the premise that there are a large number of matchlocks to restrain our knights. The reason why we choose rainy days is because their matchlocks are useless on rainy days. Ah! Moreover, during the chase, the Spaniards must leave the cover of their rogue trenches and earth walls, right? When they are chasing, it is our chance to charge ... "

Louis XII and his generals deduced it, as it was. On a rainy day, the enemy's matchlock is indeed useless, and while chasing the French halfway, they certainly can't dig trenches and pile up earth walls at any time. Taking advantage of their unsettled position, the French knights suddenly turned around and killed back, indeed they were able to beat their opponents by surprise ...

...

But how to convince the enemy that he really wants to return home? John Rafi continued (as instructed) to contribute:

"Your Majesty, you can secretly send people out of the city in the middle of the night, and then bring a piece of fake intelligence sent from the country, deliberately captured by the enemy cavalry, so that Gonzalo can see this information. As for the content of the information, it is said that there is a rebellion in Paris and your Majesty You take the soldiers back to suppress ... So, your majesty, you are in a hurry to take 20,000 knights out of the city in a hurry to return to the country, it makes sense ... "

"Okay, just do it!"

Then, a few days later, on a rainy morning, Gonzalo de Cordoba intercepted a piece of intelligence from France. Seeing the information, Gonzalo de Cordoba was very happy. At the same time, he learned that one of the two messengers fled into the city ...

Then, Gonzalo de Cordoba discovered that 20,000 French knights actually escorted the king of Louis XII from the north gate in a hurry ...

"This is to return home to chaos? Can't let them go back easily!" Gonzalo de Cordoba did not have much time to think, so he sent 30,000 troops to pursue the French ...

But halfway through, in an open area, the French knights who had been hurried back suddenly suddenly turned around and split into two shares.

The Spaniard was a little bit dumbfounded and immediately changed to defend. But only then did they realize that the Musikt musket they were proud of could not be used at this time. Because, the sky is raining ...

The French fighters used the left and right outsourcing tactics that made the Spanish infantry very uncomfortable. After all, the European fighters are popular with frontal charges. Therefore, the focus of the Spanish defense is also in the front row. However, this tactic of picking the "waist" blades on both sides of the enemy is really tedious. At the beginning, when John Rafi proposed it, he was refuted by many French generals. But John Rafi said that this is a classic tactic of the Mongolian cavalry that once swept the Eurasian continent, and everyone just barely accepted it. Moreover, the cavalry mounted the enemy's spear array on the front, it was really silly ...

The Spaniard was obviously also stunned by the French “new tactics” that inserted the knife on both sides of the “waist”. Before the response, the French rushed into formation.

As a result, Spain's commander, Francis, had no choice but to order the elite front-line troops that had not been attacked to gather and retreat to a high ground.

The French did not have time to take care of them, but were busy slaughtering the Spanish recruits and the weak. After Francis retreated to a nearby high ground with more than 10,000 remaining infantry, the French were helpless. After all, the cavalry rushed to the high ground, absolutely giving the opponent a head. Moreover, it can't be rushed ...

This is to blame the rugged terrain of Italy ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The French can find such a flat, it is already rare. It is simply unrealistic to find a large plain in the southern Apennines ...

Therefore, Louis XII and his knights are also helpless for the approximately 16,000 Spanish infantry who shrink to defend on the high ground.

Moreover, there is little rainfall in the Apennine Peninsula in summer. After all, this is a dry Mediterranean climate in summer. After the war, Louis XII discovered that the precipitation was weakening and was about to stop. So he changed his face and quickly ordered the army to return to Naples. Because, once the weather improves, the Spaniard's muskets can be awesome ...

But in any case, this "back carbine" tactic was extremely successful, and actually wiped out tens of thousands of Spanish infantry. Although most of them are old and weak and recruits in the back row, it is also a huge victory ...

So, when returning to Naples, Louis XII and the French knights under his command were contented ...
