Brigadier General Trosch, who returned to the headquarters, reported the decision of the British Command to Marshal St. Arnault and asked Marshal St. Arnault to approve him to join the navy in the operation.
Marshal Saint Arnault first glanced at Brigadier General Trosch, and then glanced at General Pelissier next to him.
Marshal Saint Arnault knew that his adjutant was leaving a way back for him.
Brigadier General Trosch, who was St. Arnault's adjutant, did not worry about his future in the coalition forces at all when St. Arnault was still alive.
Once Marshal St. Arno has any accident, the new expeditionary commander is likely to marginalize him.
Right now Marshal St. Arnault's health is not as good as the day, so Brigadier General Trosch will naturally have to plan for his future earlier.
That's why he asked Marshal St. Arno to let him participate in this operation. This method is to disguise himself from the identity of the adjutant of St. Arno.
"General Pelissier, what do you think?" Marshal Saint Arnault said as usual.
Why did Perissier not understand what Marshal Saint Arnault meant, he hurriedly nodded with a smile: "I think Brigadier General Trosch is capable of taking on this position!"
"Since General Pelissier has already agreed, then I have nothing to say!" Marshal Saint Arnault approved Brigadier General Trosch's mission to follow the navy to the port of Kamish.
However, before leaving, Marshal Saint Arnault specifically instructed Brigadier General Trosch to interfere excessively with the Navy's actions because of his adjutant's relationship.
Although the land and sea joint operations are led by the army, it does not mean that the navy will blindly accommodate the army.
On the army side, there are Marshal St. Arnault, Niel... The emperor's favorite is not false, but the gold content of the Minister of the Navy Diko is not low at all.
At the beginning, the emperor had repeatedly asked Dicko not to work too hard, and just aiming at this holy family was enough to make the navy stand up in front of the army.
Unless it was a last resort, Marshal Saint Arnault didn't want to discord the two armies.
Brigadier General Trox hurried to Marshal St. Arnault, he would definitely follow the instructions of Marshal St. Arnault and would not embarrass the navy.
"Go!" Marshal Saint Arnault waved to Brigadier General Trox.
Brigadier General Trosch took a few steps back with a solemn expression, and then saluted Marshal Saint Arnault.
"Alas!" Looking at the back of Brigadier General Trochu's departure, Marshal Saint Arnault sighed and stood up and said to Perissier: "General Perissier, I'll go back to rest first! You will preside over the headquarters. It's gone!"
"You can rest assured and leave it to me!" General Perlisier responded to Marshal Saint Arnault.
When Brigadier General Trosch arrived in the bay, a regiment of French troops (3,000 men) had been waiting in the bay for some time.
However, next to the French troops about to board the ship, there was also a British infantry regiment of about 2,000 men.
Brigadier General Trosch immediately approached Adjutant Kingscote and asked him what was going on.
Adjutant Kingscott told Brigadier General Trosch that the infantry regiment had been following the French army to the port of Calayanna, near the southern bank of Sevastopol, at the request of Commander Raglan.
"The commander said, since it's going to be fake, how can there be no British army!" Adjutant Kingscote said to Brigadier General Trosch, imitating Commander Raglan's tone.
In this way, a 5,000-strong British-French coalition boarded 6 troop carriers in turn, and the troop carrier carried 5,000 British and French troops and headed for the port of Karayana near the south bank of Sevastopol.
When the Anglo-French fleet arrived near the port of Karayanna, the Russian militia who were in charge of monitoring the port of Karayanna returned to Sevastopol in groups and reported the situation to Lieutenant General Kornilov.
Lieutenant General Kornilov, who was instructing the army to build the pontoon bridge, was momentarily dazed. He did not understand what medicine was being sold in the gourd of the coalition forces.
Lieutenant General Kornilov immediately called for the chief of the Karayana port militia and asked him, "Have you seen the British and French fleet arrive at the port of Karayana?"
"I really saw it with my own eyes!" The militia leader replied to Lieutenant General Kornilov with a stern voice, and then said to Lieutenant General Kornilov in an exaggerated tone: "Lieutenant General, you don't know. , how large their fleet is! It's like a city adrift at sea..."
"Okay! I understand!" Before the vigilante leader could finish speaking, Lieutenant General Kornilov waved his hand and drove him away.
Standing in the port, Lieutenant General Kornilov paced back and forth for two laps, and said to himself, "Could it be that the goal of the coalition forces is not the North Shore?"
At the thought of Lieutenant General Kornilov, who was likely to launch an attack on the south bank by the British and French allied forces, he panicked.
In his plan, coalition forces were bound to attack from the north shore.
If the coalition forces chose to land on the south bank, the consequences would be unimaginable.
While Lieutenant General Kornilov was thinking about the strategic intentions of the coalition forces, Nakhimov appeared beside Lieutenant General Kornilov and asked Lieutenant General Kornilov about the landing of the coalition forces in the port of Karayana. Is it true.
"There is a high probability that it is true!" Kornilov responded in frustration: "The stationing of the coalition forces on the North Shore is likely to be an elaborate scam!"
"Scam?" Lieutenant General Nakhimov asked Lieutenant General Kornilov.
"Think about it! If the coalition forces launched an attack on the north shore, their fleet would certainly not be able to provide them with effective support! Not only that, but they would also be hit by our fleet on the north shore!" In Kornilov will be explained to Nakhimov.
Kornilov's behavior fully shows that if a person subjectively believes that his conclusion is extremely correct, then he will find a factual basis for this extremely correct conclusion.
Any clue can be summed up as premeditated.
Nakhimov was apparently also led into the ditch by Lieutenant General Kornilov's speculation. As the temporary commander-in-chief of Sevastopol, he immediately asked Kornilov what to do.
"We must not allow them to gain a firm foothold in the port of Karayana!" Lieutenant General Kornilov advised Nakhimov: "We must mobilize all the soldiers on the southern bank to expel the coalition vanguard in the port of Karayana. Get out of the port!"
"What about the pontoon?" Nakhimov asked Lieutenant General Kornilov, pointing to the pontoon being built.
"Stop for a while!" Lieutenant General Kornilov said firmly: "We must concentrate on one thing!"
"Okay! I'll lead the troops to the port of Karayana!" Nakhimov responded to Lieutenant General Kornilov.
"No! Let me go! You are the commander-in-chief of the entire fortress, and this fortress cannot be without you!" Lieutenant General Kornilov stretched out his hand and grabbed Nakhimov.
"But..." Nakhimov stopped and looked at Lieutenant General Kornilov, he didn't know whether Kornilov was up to the job.
"Don't worry, I'm also the Chief of Staff of the Black Sea Fleet anyway!" Lieutenant General Kornilov responded to Nakhimov in a disappointed tone: "Now in Sevastopol, only you and me are left!"
"Yeah!" Nakhimov sighed.
The fact that such a big city can't find a qualified army general is simply a big joke.
After more than an hour of mobilization, Kornilov and Nakhimov finally mobilized an army consisting of more than 3,000 troops, more than 1,000 sailors, and more than 2,000 militiamen.
In order to strengthen the firepower of this army, Lieutenant General Kornilov removed 26 guns from the battleship, and matched the 17 guns stored in the warehouse on the south bank, a total of 40 guns.
Lieutenant General Kornilov believed that with these guns and troops (Kornilov forgot that naval warfare was not the same as land warfare), it was enough to push the British and French forces back.
As a result, Lieutenant General Kornilov, with more than 7,000 soldiers and 40 artillery pieces, marched towards the port of Karayana, south of Sevastopo.
Kornilov, who led the Russian army to the port of Karayanna in a hurry, did not know that at this time, the port of Karayanna had already stationed two regiments (2 British battalions, 3 French battalions) with more than 5,000 British and French troops. , This batch of British and French coalition forces dug deep trenches under the order of Brigadier General Trosch, the temporary commander of the coalition forces. A simple trench centered on the port of Karayana is being formed, which will be used to resist the possible emergence of Russian troops.
The fleets docked at the port of Karayana also lined up in a line, and the muzzles of all the warships pointed in the direction of the south bank of Sevastopol at the same time. Only when the Russian soldiers on the south bank of Sevastopol arrived, they It will dump all its shells on their heads.
However, the Russian Imperial Army should not be so irrational that it wants to touch the naval guns...
"The enemy is coming!"
With the cry of the sailors on the ship's observation deck, the British and French coalition forces in the port of Karayana immediately became alert, and they began to seek shelter spontaneously without carrying heavy weapons.
When the Russian Imperial Army arrived less than 2 kilometers from the port of Karayana, the ships lined up began firing artillery shells at the Russian Imperial Army in the distance.
Hundreds of shells fell around the Russian Imperial Army, and the howling heat overturned Russian soldiers near the shells.
Lieutenant General Kornilov, who was riding on a horse, hurriedly issued an order to the troops: "Get down! Get down!"
The vast majority of the Russian Imperial soldiers obeyed Lieutenant General Kornilov's orders to lie down, and a few militia units, frightened by the shells, began to flee.
This led to a small confusion in the Russian Empire camp.
The chaos would have spread directly to all troops had it not been for the decisive action of the experienced officers and overseers.
Even so, there are still many militiamen who tried to escape and died in the hands of the supervising team.
The naval artillery licked the ground beneath it, sending out bursts of wailing.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
