Old Zhongma was shocked as he watched Clay Bell's left wing—the right wing of the Austrian Army—just rolling forward.
Originally, he firmly believed that an army, unable to even march in formation, launching an attack was suicidal.
But reality seemed to think otherwise.
It appeared that what decided the advancement speed was the French Army's 1000-meter sprint capability.
Initially, the French Army could stick to the retreating Austrian Army, but as they ran, some began to falter, causing the French lines to thin out.
Originally, the French formation looked like a solid cake, but gradually it turned into a sponge cake.
According to Old Zhongma's military common sense, such a sponge-cake-like formation was very fragile, prone to turning and running at the slightest rustle.
But Clay Bell's brigade did not; each point of the dispersed formation kept pushing forward, though many were truly out of strength.
