Facing the sudden appearance of the Russian-Austrian coalition forces, the always brave General Wedel did not notice the fatigue of the soldiers, but shouted: "Counterattack!"
But at this moment, the physically and mentally exhausted Prussian troops, even though they were brave, did not have the strength to launch an attack against the sudden appearance of the Russian and Austrian allied forces.
The situation on the battlefield was presented in a one-sided manner.
The Russian army did not invest much troops, but Prussia's more than 20,000 troops were as if they did not exist.
He was suppressed and beaten by the Russian army.
Wedel is brave, and even under such circumstances, he has maintained a super high record.
More than ten Russian soldiers died in his hands alone, and this was the number of people he killed at close range.
As for those Russian and Austrian allied forces who were injured by him and unable to continue fighting, it is impossible to count them.
But war is not about one person's ferocity.
No matter how powerful one person is, he cannot influence the outcome of the war.
The Russian and Austrian allied forces here are full of energy, and they have already made an ambush plan.
The Prussian troops on the other side did not get a good rest at all due to the long march, and now they had no way to launch a further attack.
The muskets and artillery in their hands were unable to exert their power.
"General, retreat. Let the soldiers retreat now. We may still have a chance to counterattack. If we continue to fight, all our troops will be here sooner or later."
Seeing the current situation on the battlefield, Wedel's counselors warned bitterly.
Wedel looked at the already one-sided situation on the battlefield and was very unwilling to do so, but now the only option before him was retreat.
There is no other path for him to choose.
Wedel sighed and said in a deep voice: "Everyone retreat!"
"Disperse and escape."
After Wedel ordered a retreat, the Prussian troops, which had already been defeated, were even more scattered.
The Prussian troops, always known for their strict discipline and uniformity, were now running around like headless flies.
Faced with the retreat of the Prussian troops, Naresh did not choose to let it go.
Their battle takes place in the heart of the Quagmire area.
Because of Wedel's wrong command, their troops have penetrated too far here, and in these quagmires are hidden the weapons of the Tsarist Russian troops to stop them.
Poof!
Prussian troops, fleeing soldiers plunged into the mire.
No longer able to move, these Prussian soldiers were trapped in the quagmire and could only be reduced to lambs to be slaughtered by the enemy.
After capturing the town of Crosson, Naresh ordered part of the mire to be hidden.
Perhaps Weddell would be careful to avoid these places when marching.
However, these fleeing Prussian troops did not care about what was under their feet, and naturally stepped into the trap designed by Naresh.
among these traps.
It was difficult for the Prussian troops to escape.
Seeing this scene, Wedel was deeply shocked. The more than 20,000 troops given to him by Frederick II fought with the Russian and Austrian armies for less than three hours and were completely defeated.
Blood red stained the land.
This blocking battle ended in the complete defeat of the Prussian troops.
Wedel, the brave Prussian general, as he said, would intercept the Russian-Austrian forces like a stick.
But he couldn't change the situation of the battle.
As a result of this battle, the Prussian troops lost more than 8,000 men, 18 artillery pieces, 300 muskets, and six pairs of flags...
The Tsarist Russian troops only paid the price of more than 800 dead, 1,000 serious injuries, and more than 3,000 minor injuries.
