In the Battle of Austerlitz, there was a "lazy general" in the Russian-Austrian coalition, and his name was Kutuzov.

The logistics pressure on the army fighting abroad must be great, whether in the East or the West. If the troops sent out are too few, they will be surrounded and annihilated by the opponent. If the troops sent out are too many, the logistics materials will be consumed quickly. When the Russian and Austrian armies met at Olmütz, the Russian baggage was already very little, and the Austrians had just been defeated in Ulm. Not only was their morale low, but their main baggage was also in the Ulm Fortress. They needed a victory to boost their morale.

When the British Royal Navy dominated the sea, Napoleon asked his naval commanders to clear the minds of French naval soldiers of the idea that the British Navy was stronger than them.

The same is true for the army. If a person has the idea that he cannot beat the opponent, the battle will naturally not go on. The "lazy general" is not really lazy, nor is he frightened by Napoleon's fame like other famous generals. As a veteran who grew up in the flames of war, he has his own views on the war situation. However, the Tsar personally led the army. Although he was nominally the commander of the coalition forces, the final command of the Russian troops still belonged to Tsar Alexander I.

There is a Pratzen Heights in the middle of the French front line, which overlooks the entire battlefield. In theory, it is a strategic location that must be fought for by military strategists.

However, the French army's strength on the southern line of Austerlitz is far less than that of the Austrian and Russian coalition forces. If the southern line can be encircled and suppressed first, and then the French army can be besieged together with the central army, then the winner of Austerlitz will have to be replaced.

When the Russian-Austrian coalition marched towards the Pratzen Heights, the French army that originally occupied the heights did not defend this important place, but chose to retreat and gave the heights to the Russian-Austrian coalition forces.

In the early stage of the battle, the Russian-Austrian coalition was going smoothly, if it were not for the French southern front and Davout's Third Army holding up the left wing of the Russian-Austrian coalition.

The Tsar gave an order to let the coalition forces in the central highlands support the part of the coalition forces that were forced back to the east coast by the sudden and fierce counterattack of the French army. However, Alexander I was a little impatient and sent more troops, causing more and more coalition forces to be tied down on the southern front. There were too few troops in the central highlands, which eventually gave the French an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and reoccupy the highlands.

The Tsar gave another order to send all the reserves to fight for the highlands, so that the coalition forces had no reserves and no depth, and a breakthrough on the front would lead to a collapse of the entire front.

After two hours of tug-of-war, the French occupied the highlands. In addition to the Tsar's impatience, Napoleon's deliberately exposed weaknesses in the southern battlefield also played a role in controlling the main force of the coalition forces.

After the central army withdrew from the high ground, Napoleon brought the artillery to the high ground and sent the main force of the French army to attack the Russian-Austrian coalition on the southern line from the side and rear.

Faced with this irresistible torrent, the coalition forces were quickly defeated. They were driven to the frozen lake, crowded with people, horses, carriages and artillery.

At this time, Napoleon ordered the French artillery on the Pratzen Heights to fire at the ice surface. In an instant, the ice surface that was originally as solid as the ground broke, and the coalition forces fell into the water and died at the bottom of the lake. The situation of the coalition's tragic defeat was clear. At this point, the Third Anti-French Alliance collapsed, and the Battle of the Three Emperors ended with Napoleon's victory.

These people are not like Harry Potter, who had time to take off his clothes by the cold lake, and Ron Weasley risked his life to rescue him. The heavy coat became extremely heavy after absorbing water.

"Don't you think it's unbelievable that Pierre Brongniart was found so easily?" Conseil said, "Maybe Crimian really found the flaw in the plan when he went to Austerlitz Station, but he might have been tricked. If Crimian was detained, would we rescue him?"

"If you were the one who was caught, would you like me to rescue you?" Severus asked.

"We were completely led by him by the nose." Conseil covered his head and said, "Why didn't we think it was done by someone at that time."

"Harry Potter also likes to wear an invisible cloak to snoop around." Severus said, "I thought of Peeves at that time."

"Why did he choose Austerlitz Station? Wouldn't the Arc de Triomphe be better?" Conseil said.

"There is a question."

"What?"

"If Napoleon came back, would you accept him?"

"When you say 'come back', do you mean resurrection?" Conseil asked.

"When I was in Fontainebleau, I was looking at 'Napoleon VII' on the stage, but I was thinking about his father. He once participated in the Free French action and was later caught by the Gestapo. He got off the train at the Austerlitz train station. There are so many train stations in Paris, why did the Germans choose this one?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Conseil sneered.

"So, will you welcome Napoleon Bonaparte back to avenge the previous shame?" Severus asked.

Conseil did not reply immediately.

"He chose April 4th as another announcement when he abdicated."

"I would rather believe it was a coincidence." Conseil said stubbornly.

"If he announced his abdication, he might become Edward VIII and Mrs. Simpson, and his followers would not let Pomona go." Severus said

"What?" Conseil asked puzzled.

"No man can escape the charm of mixed-blood Veela. They don't have male Veela. They evolved such beautiful appearance just to achieve this goal. If Napoleon gave up the crown for her, the turmoil caused would not be like that of Edward VIII. Easy to calm down.”

"I remember Napoleon was forced to abdicate."

"What I'm telling you now is that Napoleon abdicated on his own initiative. Who do you think will succeed him after he abdicates?"

"Mrs. Simpson and Edward VIII are your British problem..."

"People can die for Napoleon, they think he will bring hope to France." Severus interrupted Gongsei. "In the British conspiracy theory, Mrs. Simpson is considered to be an American spy and was used by the Americans to The end of the monarchy.”

"France also ended the monarchy until Napoleon restored it."

"Then Napoleon's abdication can be said to satisfy the French people's hopes."

"What on earth do you want to say!?" Gong Saiyi roared angrily.

"Salazar Slytherin once said that no descendants of Veela should be allowed to enter the school." The former Head of Slytherin said, "But during the Triwizard Tournament, we allowed a mixed-blood Veela to enter Hogwarts. Not only did she enter the school, she also participated in the competition and the Christmas dance. "

"You mean Fleur Delacour?"

"If she hadn't appeared, no one would have thought of it." Severus rubbed his eyes. "At least I have never thought about the 'princess'."

Gong Saiyi looked at him with some sympathy.

"How many women in the world do you think can resist a man who gives up his crown for her?" Severus asked.

"A lot of it is." Gong Saiyi said, "If Napoleon were not the emperor..."

"He is still a man with a sound mind. Many people may think that he made the wrong choice, but only by being in his position can one understand the situation he is facing. I know an Eastern scholar who once told me , the relationship between Eastern and Western civilization is like Pi and his Bengal tiger. Without whom, neither of them will be able to return to the shore alive. "

"I've seen that movie," Felix said. "But who is Pi and who is the Bengal Tiger?"

"Most people will not admit their beast side. The Oracle of Delphi said to 'know yourself', but even knowing yourself has a limit. For most young wizards, finding yourself A physical Patronus is enough," Severus said. "To summon a Patronus, you need to be 'happy'. Memories, memories that make you happy may not necessarily make you happy, and memories that make you happy may not make you happy. Winning wars makes people happy. However, the Austrians and the French had a deep hatred. Napoleon married a How do you think the Austrian princess, who has a deep hatred for him and France, can give him happiness?"

"Do you think an English woman will make him happy?"

"How do I know?" Severus took a puff of his cigarette and smiled contemptuously. "What do you think of me now?"

Gong Saiyi said nothing.

"Without power, he will lose the ability to protect Pomona, so if he chooses to abdicate for a woman like Windsor, it will undoubtedly be a wrong decision."

"That's not what you just said," Felix said.

"Let me tell you one thing, Felix, don't be obsessed with Veela." Severus said tiredly, "They will squeeze everything out of you."

"Don't tell your children this." Gong Saiyi reminded.

"Why did you remember to tell her about the Yachmos family?" Severus asked Gong Saiyi.

"I don't know, I just remembered it." Gong Saiyi said inexplicably.

"That was a wonderful night." Severus said with a smile. "What do you think?"

No one matched him, and Severus laughed to himself.

He smiled so freely that he looked like a mentally ill lunatic.
