Treton Ferry is a vast plain.
There are no highlands, nor any favorable terrain suitable for combat!
The troops can only attack here in the simplest, most primitive and brutal way!
The entire Trinton Ferry was instantly covered in flames of war.
The freezing temperature was set off by artillery and muskets!
Soldiers from both sides engaged in fierce fighting, and the British commander, General Hall, came to the battlefield in person.
He stared at the ragged Continental Congress soldiers, wishing to tear them to pieces on the spot, because they themselves had lost an eye.
"attack!"
"Let those Americans have a taste of our power!"
Britain's weapons and equipment are more excellent, and the attack range and power of the artillery are more powerful.
Bonaparte ordered the soldiers to form a phalanx. For the artillery, such a phalanx was the most suitable for their attack.
But Bonaparte had long anticipated the use of artillery by the British troops.
He also knows that his phalanx tactics can be restrained by enemy artillery, but he is fearless!
The moment the artillery fire fell, the soldiers lined up in a square formation suddenly hid themselves.
The British artillery exploded to the ground and caused a cloud of dust. It did not hurt many French soldiers at all.
Although they have to fight hand-to-hand.
But this does not mean that Bonaparte did not have other preparations. He had already dug trenches on Trenton Ferry.
Hiding in these trenches, the Continental Rebel Army did not suffer much harm at all.
It can even be said that he was not harmed.
And this is not the most critical thing.
Inside the trenches, they had bunkers, and it was difficult for the bullets of the British troops to hit the Continental Rebels!
Seeing this scene, General Hall was stunned. He did not expect that the Continental Rebel Army could build trenches in such a short time, nor did he expect that the other party would attack them in such a way.
General Hall took the lead in launching the attack in order to strike first.
But he was counterattacked by the opponent!
But at this time, the Continental Congress army, whose strength and equipment were gradually weakening, suddenly gained the upper hand!
General Hall gritted his teeth. If this continued, they would lose this battle.
For General Hall, this was an absolutely unacceptable failure.
He also has an ace unit, the cavalry!
Although the number is small, it is powerful enough. This force is used to block the retreat of the Continental Rebel Army. However, the current war situation has forced him to take out his troops in advance and prepare for battle!
After thinking about this.
General Hall hurriedly ordered: "The cavalry will attack from the left and right wings!"
"yes!"
The cavalry behind him dispatched to kill the Continental Congress rebels!
Bonaparte looked at the troops charging over and frowned suddenly.
This was something he didn't expect. The rebels staying in the trench had no way to avoid the cavalry's close attack.
I can only get beaten blindly.
Bonaparte flew on his horse. He looked at the thunderclouds rolling in the sky, but there was no sign of rain.
They couldn't wait any longer and had to suppress the British troops as soon as possible so that other troops led by George could cross the river!
As long as they crossed the Hudson River, their troops could stop the British forces.
With a river blocking their way, their battle would not be so difficult and dangerous!
"Cavalry, charge with me!"
Bonaparte led the French cavalry into the battlefield.
His leading the way greatly boosted morale.
The French cavalry is the ace force on the European battlefield. Although there are only 500 people, they are not afraid of the British cavalry of more than 3,000 people!
Facing the opponent's attack directly, there is no fear at all.
The armies on both sides were like needles facing each other, colliding together!
Bonaparte's cavalry carried muskets. They used the vast terrain to roam the battlefield, using speed and muskets to move and shoot!
The British cavalry used spears, some muskets, and grenades to fight!
The focus of the British Cavalry attack was the Continental Rebel soldiers in the trenches.
There is no desire to attack other troops at all.
So for them, such an offense is meaningless.
When the two troops collided with each other, the horses on both sides avoided each other in an extremely strange way.
The cavalry led by Bonaparte just roamed and attacked, consuming the enemy's troops!
The British troops were the Continental Rebels who continued to attack the trenches.
However, due to Bonaparte's harassment, their attack became very difficult. Relying on the advantage of the musketeer length, the French cavalry established a huge advantage.
However, this is also extremely dangerous!
Their number of soldiers is not half that of others!
As long as the British cavalry changes the direction of attack, Bonaparte will immediately be in trouble!
At this time, General Hall watched the situation on the battlefield reach a stalemate.
He ordered his troops to encircle and suppress them again.
The cavalry changed the main target of the attack, and Bonaparte's cavalry immediately suffered heavy losses!
Without the cavalry to restrain the soldiers hiding in the trenches, they could only be forced to evacuate.
At this time, the British troops swarmed up.
The battle was helplessly dragged into a protracted war!
In the face of this protracted and brutal battle, the rebels in the Continental Congress will be helpless!
With the approaching British troops.
The remaining Continental Congress rebels are exhausted!
Even if Bonaparte designed trenches that could change the terrain advantage, even if Bonaparte and their cavalry were brave enough to sacrifice their own lives, they would not be able to prevent the defeat of a battle.
Unless a miracle happens!
The meteorologist looked at the extremely gloomy sky, covering the sun, moon, and stars!
He prayed for a storm to come!
At this time, George looked at the dim battlefield and saw that victory was no longer possible.
But he still didn't give up, even if their defeat was about to happen!
Even this defeat will make them completely unable to win.
He is fearless. The only people he needs to apologize to are Long Yan's envoys, Wan Shang and Fang Dalong.
They helped me a lot, and even told me very crucial information very early on.
But at that time, he did not understand the preciousness of this information, so that he missed very valuable information.
If he could do it all over again, he would definitely treat the two of them as guests!
But there is no chance now, but even so, George immediately arranged for people to find Wan Shang and Fang Dalong!
"Mr. Wan, Mr. Fang!"
"Please leave immediately, we can't hold on any longer."
The two of them looked at the hurried George walking over, raised their eyes and smiled: "Don't worry, wait for the rain to come, and we will naturally reach the other side of the river."
George looked at the rolling dark clouds in the sky, thundering loudly, but there was no sign of any raindrops falling.
"Sir, what's the joke? Let's go now!"
And at this moment, George suddenly felt the tip of his nose feel cold and watery!
