Battle Of Prague, 1757, In The Seven Years' War

About this audiobook
The Seven Years War (1756–1763) was a conflict between Great Britain and France for global preeminence. Britain, France and Spain fought both in Europe and overseas with armies and fleets, while Prussia sought territorial expansion in Europe and consolidation of its power. At the Battle of Prague, on May 6, 1757, a formidable resistance from the Austrian infantry and near-suicidal charges of his cavalry, covered the army retreat and left the Prussian commanders horrified by their casualties, in which many of the Prussian infantry "pillars" were lost. In the battle simulation, I will try to correct the flaws presented in the historical analysis, testing improvements in the maneuvers. And then we will prove which maneuver will prevail, both being instructed with the best and maximum effort.
