Chapter 870: Chapter 778 Marching into Italy
The next afternoon.
Bolieu was discussing with his staff the most efficient way to attack the Port of Toulon after securing Wans, when an officer burst into the room without even knocking.
Disregarding the Marshal’s angry glare, the officer shouted in panic, “Marshal, General Dananfield was ambushed on his way to Wans and has almost completely lost his entire force. His whereabouts are currently unknown…”
Bolieu abruptly stood up. “What, what did you say?”
The officer swallowed hard and continued, “Moreover, General Pulovira was ambushed by the French Army while retreating. A soldier who relayed the message said he is preparing to retreat towards Wans and is asking for reinforcements.”
To be fair, Napoleon hadn’t actually planned to ambush Pulovira, since he had no idea the Austrian Army had abandoned Cagne Town.
This was all due to “idle” Ogero, who decided to stir up some action for himself and ended up unexpectedly encountering Pulovira’s troops.
However, in Pulovira’s eyes, this absolutely looked as though the French Army had been waiting for him all along, causing his forces to collapse instantly and flee in panic.
Bolieu felt a sudden buzzing in his head.
What do you think?
