Now let me relate the true story of the tragic fall of Paris to the slavering, brutish, souless halfmen from the wild East. Spiritually void Prussians, Boorish and treacherous Austrians and the truly and unspeakably vile peasantry of the steppes colluded and plotted to slay the wounded Eagle fighting desperately to protect her children.
The unimaginative bludgeoning of these military amateurs succeeded only in demonstrating that the art of war truly died today with the passing of the Emperor's Army into history.
Outgunned, outnumbered and overwhelmingly undersupplied, our meagre divisions made the enemy bleed for every inch of territory. As the sun went down, ill ordered robber bands of the forces of darkness were aimlessly wandering on heaps of their own dead, plundering and guilty of the most unspeakable atrocities amongst the honest citizens of our beautiful capital. Women stolen, cattle raped, crops trampled and croissants burned
Some of the Russian Divisions were so depleted that they looked like battalions by the close of the battle.
Only after the arrival of 10,000 Prussians in the afternoon were the enemy in a position to finally overwhelm our wonderful soldiers.
Particular mention must be made of General de Division Jacques and his epic defence of the eastern suburbs against odds of nearly 4:1 made up of the Russian Imperial Guard no less.
Our strongest Division under Baron D'ilton was still fighting and holding the canals as the rest of our army was surrounded.
General of Division D'Ale was holding an impregnable series of revolutionary era revettements and had obliterated his numerically superior Russian opponents without yielding an inch of ground which was heaped with the enemy's dead.
The treachery of Mortier will live forever in infamy and as of course, the winners write the history (ever inaccurate and biased) mark well the fact that ANY response to this true deposition will seek to contradict it with a tissue of propoganda and lies
(Be mindful particularly of the scrivening of the Russian emigre O'Brien.. minister of spin at the Kremlin Palace)
Vive la France!
PS.. the Royalists also betrayed us by showing the enemy crossings on the waterways!!
