13549 | And if he covered each point even by a brigade, where would be his army when he would need it to give battle to an approaching force? |
13549 | And was this sacrifice really useful? |
13549 | Are we to imagine that Eugene and Marlborough triumphed simply by inspiration or by the superior courage and discipline of their battalions? |
13549 | But how could he leave Schaffhausen unprotected? |
13549 | But is there no means of repelling such an invasion without bringing about an uprising of the whole population and a war of extermination? |
13549 | But will this faithful friend never yield to personal affections? |
13549 | Can an immense deployed line be moved up into action while firing? |
13549 | Can he not turn his adversary, surround, disperse, and ruin in succession all his divisions? |
13549 | Can the result of the march of Napoleon and Grouchy on Brussels be forgotten? |
13549 | Did not Eugene march by way of Stradella and Asti to the aid of Turin, leaving the French upon the Mincio but a few leagues from his base? |
13549 | Do not these false combinations resemble those of Soubise and Broglie in 1761, and all the operations of the Seven Years''War? |
13549 | How can they escape such a fate? |
13549 | How could so many small vessels be kept moving, even for two days and nights? |
13549 | How was he to defend such a circumference? |
13549 | How would it have been possible to attack the camps of Saorgio, Figueras, and Mont- Cenis with deployed regiments? |
13549 | I ask, what means is there of carrying up to the assault of an enemy forty or fifty deployed battalions as a whole in good order? |
13549 | If he had made a divergent retreat, what would have become of his army and his victories? |
13549 | In fact, how can any man say what he should do himself, if he is ignorant what his adversary is about? |
13549 | Is it an advantage to a state to have its armies commanded in person by the monarch? |
13549 | Is it indeed an easy matter to adopt any other order when marching to attack a position? |
13549 | Is logistics simply a science of detail? |
13549 | Is there no mean between these contests between the people and the old regular method of war between permanent armies? |
13549 | Moreover, was not the Archduke Charles enabled to beat Jourdan in 1796 by the use of converging routes? |
13549 | Moreover, who can say that a retreat commenced in the daylight in presence of an enterprising enemy may not become a rout? |
13549 | Or, on the contrary, is it a general science, forming one of the most essential parts of the art of war? |
13549 | Shall I be understood as saying that there are no such things as tactical rules, and that no theory of tactics can be useful? |
13549 | Shall I say also that in this kind of war, more than in any other, operations should be directed upon the communications of the enemy? |
13549 | Shall a theory be pronounced absurd because it has only three- fourths of the whole number of chances of success in its favor? |
13549 | Shall such an army be still more weakened by dividing it? |
13549 | Shall the fight be continued at all hazards until nightfall and the retreat executed under cover of the darkness? |
13549 | Should a forced march be made in the night, in order to get as much start of the enemy as possible? |
13549 | Since Napoleon''s direction of operations was so clearly fixed, what mattered it to him to know the details of their movements? |
13549 | The example of Wurmser, who prolonged the defense of Mantua, will be cited in opposition to this; but did not his army perish? |
13549 | The marches of Ulm and Jena were the same maneuvers; and what was Blücher''s march at Waterloo but an application of interior strategic lines? |
13549 | Was not General Moreau at the gates of Vienna when Fussen, Scharnitz, and all the Tyrol were in possession of the Austrians? |
13549 | Was not Napoleon at Piacenza when Turin, Genoa, and the Col- di- Tenda were occupied by the army of Mélas? |
13549 | Was not the salvation of Germany due to his concentric retreat? |
13549 | What change will it make in tactics? |
13549 | What conclusions shall be drawn from all that has been said? |
13549 | What man would not glory in assisting to bring to a conclusion the greatest trial of skill and strength ever seen between two great nations? |
13549 | What method of retreat shall be recommended? |
13549 | What military man of intelligence would be guilty of such an absurdity? |
13549 | What military man will reply in the affirmative? |
13549 | What must be the result of an operation which is but partially understood by the commander, since it is not his own conception? |
13549 | What service did one hundred thousand Vendeans and one hundred thousand Federalists do for the Coalition in 1793? |
13549 | What was the fate of the concentric columns of Wurmser and Quasdanovitch, wishing to reach the Mincio by the two banks of Lake Garda? |
13549 | What was the result? |
13549 | When the Archduke Charles gave way before the first efforts of the French armies in 1796, would he have saved Germany by an eccentric movement? |
13549 | Where were the imposing armies she afterward displayed? |
13549 | Will he be always free from prejudice? |
13549 | Would it be fair on that account to deny the influence of science and principles in ordinary affairs? |
13549 | Would it have placed Bonaparte at the head of the army of Italy, when he was known only by two directors? |
13549 | Would the same result have been witnessed if they had used columns of attack formed each of a single battalion doubled on the center? |
13549 | and how could he leave open one of these great valleys, thus risking every thing? |
13549 | and what more useful disposition could have been made of them than to protect the flanks of the invading army? |
13549 | how abandon Rheineck and the Saint- Gothard? |
13549 | how open the Valais and the approach by Berne, without surrendering the whole of Switzerland to the Coalition? |
13549 | or is it better to halt after a half- march and make a show of fighting again? |
13549 | to make a Saragossa of every walled town, to bring about, by way of reprisals, murder, pillage, and incendiarism throughout the country? |
16170 | But the_ means_ of instruction, say you, where are they to be found? 16170 Is it not_ certain_ that in future all war of maritime powers against the United States, will take a similar course? |

16170 | At what distance ought the vanguard and the flankers to be encamped? |
16170 | But are we bound to love all human beings alike; that is, to the same degree? |
16170 | But could any sane man be found to say that, on account of the cost of maintaining them, all laws and lawyers are useless and should be abolished? |
16170 | But even if it were not so, are there no other advantages to be secured? |
16170 | But is this sufficient to accomplish the object? |
16170 | But it may be asked, what is to prevent repeated and continued aggression? |
16170 | But where is the capital exactly so situated that we are ever likely to attack? |
16170 | Can it be said that the wars of the American Revolution and of 1812, were demoralizing in their effects? |
16170 | Could our fleet be so arranged as to meet these enterprises? |
16170 | Did Mr. White, of Salem, escape his murderers any the more for being harmless and defenceless? |

16170 | How can we best prepare in time of peace to repel these attacks? |
16170 | How far have we accomplished this object, and what will be the probable operations in case of another contest with a European power? |
16170 | How know which of these evolutions the enemy employs against him? |
16170 | How, then, are we to oppose the hostile force? |
16170 | If professional ignorance be a recommendation in our generals, why not also in our lawyers and our surgeons? |
16170 | If we entirely forbear to punish the thief, the robber, and the murderer, think you that crime will be diminished? |
16170 | In case of another increase of our military establishment, what course will our government pursue? |

16170 | Is it true, that in this world the wicked only are oppressed, and that the good are always the prospered and happy? |
16170 | Is not General Toll associated with the successes of Kutusof? |
16170 | Is_ vanity_ your principle of action? |
16170 | Must human blood be substituted for skill and preparation, and dead bodies of our citizens serve as epaulements against the inroads of the enemy? |
16170 | Must the Gulf of Mexico be swept, as well as the Atlantic; or shall we give up the Gulf to the enemy? |
16170 | Shall we cover the southern cities, or give them up also? |
16170 | Should the army be ranged in battle array, in several lines? |
16170 | Should the cavalry be in reserve behind the infantry, or should it be placed upon the wings? |
16170 | They may make a Mack, but have they ever made a Xenophon, a CÃ ¦ sar, a Saxe, a Frederick, or a Bonaparte? |

16170 | Who would not laugh to hear the cobbler of Athens lecturing Hannibal on the art of war?" |
16170 | Why then did these places, escape? |
16170 | Would we trust our lives and the honor of our country to their care? |
16170 | Yet what was the effect produced on the defences of the place by this fire, so formidable, to judge by the sound alone? |
16170 | and, of course, how decide on a counter- movement which may be necessary to secure victory or avoid defeat? |
16170 | or to cut him off from his supplies? |

46093 | And that fencing taught on my plan loses its terrors? |
46093 | Are you aware,said one of my friends,"that these are the secrets of the sword that you are revealing to us?" |
46093 | But ought we to condemn swordsmanship on that account? 46093 But surely they are very difficult?" |
46093 | But surely,someone objected,"in the hands of a skilful swordsman they would be doubly dangerous?" |
46093 | But what if the parties agree to allow it beforehand? |
46093 | But what if this parry is deceived? |
46093 | But,exclaimed one of my hearers,"what do you mean by''threatening?'' |
46093 | But,objected the Comte de R.,"what if the other side insist?" |
46093 | Do you follow the distinction? 46093 Have you never observed how all animals, from the most insignificant creatures up to the most savage beasts, set about fighting? |
46093 | If Parisi dropped his dagger, what happened? 46093 In the course of the fight one of the antagonists calls for a halt-- have you the right to insist that the fight shall continue without interruption? |
46093 | Is it not much more likely that he will have been told to look out for a surprise attack? 46093 Is it permissible to use the unarmed hand to parry and put aside your opponent''s blade?" |
46093 | May I ask one more question? |
46093 | Now let me ask you, which of these two assaults is the more interesting to follow? 46093 Now what are these words supposed to mean? |
46093 | Quite true; but do you feel that hesitation, when you raise your pistol to fire on a man who has emptied his barrels? 46093 Then what happens? |
46093 | Then why attempt it at all? 46093 Then you approve,"said M. de C.,"of occasional practice with muffled swords?" |
46093 | Then, why do n''t they say so? |
46093 | Well, but suppose such a thing did happen? |
46093 | Well, is it allowable to use a fencing glove? |
46093 | Well, what is your second question? |
46093 | Well, what is your text to- night? |
46093 | Well, what of fencing judgment? 46093 Well,"someone asked me,"what are you going to talk about to- night?" |
46093 | What do you say to a thrust in the eye? 46093 What is the object to be attained? |
46093 | What teaches them not to rush at each other''s throat in blind fury? 46093 What will your subject be to- morrow?" |
46093 | What, I may be asked, becomes of your scheme of defence, if, the moment that the novice extends his sword at a venture, the adversary engages it? 46093 What, with twenty- four hours''notice?" |
46093 | Yet, surely they must have existed some time or other,objected my critic,"or how did they come by their name?" |
46093 | Your opponent, you say, is done; well, perhaps he may be, but have you considered why? 46093 ''Certainly not''''Is there anything wrong with my parries? 46093 ''Did I stab, or come in with a round- arm?'' 46093 ''Do you know anything about fencing?'' 46093 ''Then, what more do you want?'' 46093 ''To oblige you?'' 46093 ''Unless you join blades, how am I to fence?'' 46093 ''Why should I?'' 46093 ''Why_ must_ I? 46093 ''Will you allow me, Sir, to give you a word of advice?'' 46093 And are you to let him off without pressing the advantage that you with your judgment and self- restraint have held in reserve? 46093 And as a matter of fact should I be very far wrong?'' 46093 And one may well ask why, when two chances of safety are at your disposal, you should deliberately resolve to avail yourself of only one of them? 46093 And to what position? 46093 Are these qualities then necessarily incompatible with each other? 46093 Are they too wide, or what? 46093 Are we to join in an outlandish Babel, where every one claims to be heard in his own tongue, some jargon which no one can understand?'' 46093 Are we to prostitute and expose it to the barbarous excesses of a brutal and ignorant mob? 46093 Are you tired? |
46093 | But do you need this recondite skill? |
46093 | But does anyone suppose that we are guided by practical considerations in choosing our sports? |
46093 | But is not the master there to correct these errors with his lesson, and to bring his pupil, who is inclined to go astray, back to the right path? |
46093 | But what can I do? |
46093 | But when did revolutions ever know where to stop? |
46093 | Can not the leading strings be readjusted? |
46093 | Can you deny the controlling influence of the eye, the authority that belongs to it? |
46093 | Could any professor, however skilful, put the point better or more logically? |
46093 | Do not her words contain the whole? |
46093 | Do they imply that a graceful fencer is not difficult? |
46093 | Do you believe that the eye can not be trained to the same degree of nicety as the hand? |
46093 | Do you mean to tell me that he will be able to put into practice straight away what you have just shown him? |
46093 | Do you not say, and with perfect justice,''I have stood his fire, it is his turn now to stand mine''? |
46093 | Do you suppose that all you have to do is to change the word of command:--''Now do quickly what you have done slowly hitherto''? |
46093 | Does that satisfy you?" |
46093 | How does that strike you? |
46093 | If we are to give up our points, you must forfeit yours, and how can you?'' |
46093 | In the name of good sense, in common fairness, could you or could you not with a clear conscience take the heavy responsibility of such a risk? |
46093 | Is it likely that he will allow himself to be rushed, or to be victimised by such a transparent piece of bluff? |
46093 | Is my hand too heavy, or do you complain of mutual hits?'' |
46093 | Is that a gain or a loss? |
46093 | Is there any reason for this mysterious taboo?" |
46093 | Now, what do you say? |
46093 | One side might say:--''If our man is tired or blown, you will have no objection, we presume, to allowing a short interval?'' |
46093 | Or do you suppose, that thanks to your demonstration he will be able to swim when he finds himself in the water? |
46093 | Poets we know are nothing if not first- rate, but why should fencers be singled out for this invidious distinction? |
46093 | Shall we drop it, or shall we see it through?" |
46093 | Shall we follow him in his career?" |
46093 | Sometimes one may regret that it is so; but what other result could you expect to follow from the convulsions that have so frequently shattered it? |
46093 | Surely that is not too much to ask for putting you into good trim, and teaching you how to protect yourself?" |
46093 | Tell me, are my hits improperly delivered?'' |
46093 | The remark applies equally to music, to painting, to literature, and why not to fencing? |
46093 | Then someone remarked:--"I have often heard''secret thrusts''spoken of, but how is it that they are not taught by the Professors?" |
46093 | V."But,"objected one of my hearers,"what if your adversary adopts the same tactics, and refuses the engagement?" |
46093 | V."Then,"smilingly remarked the Comte de R.,"you are for open war with the existing routine?" |
46093 | What is it but that part of the understanding that we all bring to bear on the conduct of everyday life? |
46093 | What secret instinct will inform you that the opportune moment has come for executing this manoeuvre? |
46093 | What was the reason for choosing this attitude and these movements? |
46093 | What would be the result? |
46093 | What would you do with it? |
46093 | When a man is called out, can he be required to fight two duels with two opponents in succession?" |
46093 | Who can decide between them? |
46093 | Why allow it to meddle with and domineer over things which do not concern it? |
46093 | Why do you say that mutual hits must occur more frequently? |
46093 | Why have I written this book? |
46093 | Why in the world should you be afraid of it, as though it were the hundred- headed hydra that guards the sacred portals? |
46093 | Why recognise the inequality of the match in the one case, and disregard it in the other? |
46093 | Why should a thrust aimed in that direction not be of its kind as brilliant and meritorious as another? |
46093 | Why should he? |
46093 | Why should it be boycotted? |
46093 | Why, when you have these two forces at your disposal, are you content to let one of them do duty for both? |
46093 | Will you allow me to make use of you by way of illustration?" |
46093 | You admit the force of my arguments?" |
46093 | [ 1] What memory could possibly contain them? |

44470 | Are all your things there? |

44470 | But, sir,I asked again,"ca n''t I be allowed to go and see Sergeant de Lanoy?" |
44470 | But,I said,"is n''t there any place where I can go and have a wash?" |
44470 | By the way,he said, as I was going off,"what squadron do you belong to?" |
44470 | Did n''t you see Decle? |

44470 | I remember one day-- it was two years ago-- I went to the medical visit, and he says,''What is the matter with you?'' 44470 I shall never find boots for you,"he went on,"why have you got a long narrow foot like that? |
44470 | I suppose you''ve been in good houses before? |
44470 | I tell you what,I then said;"why should you go to money- lenders? |
44470 | If you like,added the man,"I''ll go and fetch my brushes and brush my boots here, and then perhaps you will be satisfied?" |
44470 | Jump on? |
44470 | Let me see, how many days have you got? |
44470 | Look here, you-- what''s- your- name, what''s the fellow''s name? |

44470 | Plenty of money to waste, eh? 44470 So that''s you?" |
44470 | So you have been at your tricks once more, eh, Decle? |

44470 | Well, why the devil do n''t you come and report yourself, you blockhead? |
44470 | Well,he resumed,"we started at three o''clock this afternoon, just after stables, and as we got outside Titi says to me,''Got any oof, Piatte?'' |

44470 | ''Going to beg pardon?'' |
44470 | ''Knives?'' |
44470 | ''Look here,''I said,''did you mean what you said just now?'' |
44470 | ''Oh,''I says,''is that so? |
44470 | ''Row?'' |
44470 | ''Titi de la Villette,''do n''t you remember now?" |
44470 | ''Ugly mug,''I says;''what d''ye call that filthy beak of yours?'' |
44470 | ''Well?'' |
44470 | ''What shall we do-- chuck all these dirty shrimps out of the window, eh?'' |
44470 | ''What''s the row?'' |
44470 | ''Why?'' |
44470 | ''You are quite sure it belongs to you?'' |
44470 | 1''mean?" |
44470 | 1?" |
44470 | After this followed some rather ludicrous questions:"Can you read and write?" |
44470 | Answers, eh? |
44470 | Are n''t there other_ Conseils_?" |
44470 | Are these armed multitudes as formidable as mere arithmetic would have us think? |
44470 | Are you such a fool as not to see for yourself it''s too small?" |
44470 | Are you such an idiot that you ca n''t feel they are too big?" |
44470 | As de Lanoy hesitated, the Surgeon- major angrily added,"Do you hear me or not? |
44470 | As will be seen, the drift of all this was to try and impress our minds with the fact that we were entirely indebted for our present happy(?) |
44470 | Before the call of"Lights out"peace had been restored, and the whole company adjourned to their respective rooms, most of the troopers supporting(?) |
44470 | Bootmaker,"he shouted, without leaving me time to reply,"ca n''t you find a pair of boots for this man?" |
44470 | But how is it that you are going to Paris without leave?" |
44470 | Can you swim?" |
44470 | Corporals get about twice as much, while Sergeants get about 4_d._ a day, and Sergeant- majors 8_d._ What would Tommy Atkins say to that? |
44470 | D''ye hear?" |
44470 | Do n''t you ever wear your clothes?" |
44470 | Do n''t you understand me? |
44470 | Do you know what has become of him?" |
44470 | Do you think I am standing here at your orders?" |
44470 | Do you understand?" |
44470 | Have you been in gaol?" |
44470 | He looked at me in a stupid way, and muttered,"What do you want?" |
44470 | He ordered me to unbutton my tunic, and looking at my elephantine trousers:"What''s that?" |
44470 | He saluted, and said:"You have sent for me, sir?" |
44470 | I say you, what''s- your- name,"the Corporal went on, addressing the country bumpkin,"that''s the canteen, what are you going to stand us?" |
44470 | I suppose you would consider yourself degraded if you had to wear a regimental shirt? |
44470 | I suppose you''re another of these( using a double- barrelled adjective)_ Volontaires_?" |
44470 | I want to know from whom you got it?" |
44470 | I''ve got a Dragoon, and I have got a lantern, and do you imagine that I want any one to show me what is wrong? |
44470 | In a second or two the officer was landed on the ground, while our Captain coolly asked him what he was doing there? |
44470 | In your stomach?" |
44470 | Is n''t he drunk, that fellow? |
44470 | Is she lively?" |
44470 | Is that a go?" |
44470 | It''s very funny to look at a man, is n''t it?" |
44470 | Just then he hears a step outside, and suspecting that it is an officer, he shouts out:"''Who''s been smoking here? |
44470 | Linen''s too coarse for a tender skin like yours, eh?" |
44470 | Nobody moved, so I says to Piatte,''Shall we have a go?'' |
44470 | Now do n''t you know a Jew who would lend me the money?" |
44470 | Now do n''t you think that he was a brick?" |
44470 | Now look sharp-- are you going to tell me or not?'' |
44470 | Now where is my house?" |
44470 | On the way we meets Lieutenant Granford riding; he stops and says,''What''s the matter with your helmet?'' |
44470 | One of them was still covered with dried- up blood: it was mine; so the judge says,''Whose knife is that?'' |
44470 | Regimentals not good enough for you? |
44470 | Some of the boys had joined us, and told us that the police were not likely to come, so Chambardeau he says:''Are you ready?'' |
44470 | The doctor then came back to my bed:"I hear,"he said,"that you are a d----d heathen; is that so?" |
44470 | The new Colonel calls me a disgrace to the regiment, and a disgrace to the French army: but what do I care? |
44470 | Then turning towards the Sergeant, he went on,"Sergeant, ca n''t you see that man is drunk? |
44470 | This, in regimental slang, is called"Jules,"and is the only sanitary(?) |
44470 | What did I care? |
44470 | What do you want?" |
44470 | What do you want?" |
44470 | What does a bloke deserve who comes and interferes with gentlemen at their business? |
44470 | What does this boast amount to? |
44470 | What else do you want?--a valet to dress your royal highness?" |
44470 | What on earth have you been doing?" |
44470 | Where is the equality of punishment in such a case? |
44470 | Who is Titi?" |
44470 | Why could n''t you have seen before that he was drunk?" |
44470 | Why did he send you here?" |
44470 | Why do n''t you confess purely and simply that you had your leave from your Sergeant- major?" |
44470 | Why is Lionel your Christian name?" |
44470 | Why is n''t he here?" |
44470 | Why the deuce do n''t you tell me what you want? |
44470 | Why, it''s all over windows-- why''s that, now tell me why d''I see so many windows?" |
44470 | Yet how does the case really stand? |
44470 | You do n''t call it a mule, I suppose?" |
44470 | [ 19] How do you like it?" |
44470 | [ 33] That''s all right for those who''ve got money, but the poor people,_ on s''en fiche!_( Who cares about them?)" |
44470 | asks the judge, taking another one from the table,''is that yours?'' |
44470 | he asked me;"will you tell me why you call yourself Lionel? |
44470 | he laughingly replied;"who spoke to you of_ Conseil de discipline_? |
44470 | it will be asked,"can such a thing occur?" |
44470 | malheur d''ons que tu sors?_''( Good gracious, where do you hail from?) |
44470 | malheur d''ons que tu sors?_''( Good gracious, where do you hail from?) |
44470 | said the Captain;"how dare you come and show me such a tunic? |
44470 | what do you want, you there?" |
44470 | you want to speak to Sergeant de Lanoy, do you?" |
7294 | At what distance is a voluntary or an ordered disposition taken before starting operations for commencing fire, for charging, or both? 7294 At what instant has this control escaped from the battalion commander? |
7294 | At what moment, if the control were escaping from the leader''s hands, has it no longer been possible to exercise it? 7294 At what moments before, during, or after the day, was the battalion roll- call, the company roll- call made? |
7294 | Did not Captain Daguerre change the bugle call''Retreat,''ordered by---- to the bugle call''Forward?'' |
7294 | Did we receive bayonet wounds? 7294 Has an aristocracy any excuse for existing if it is not military? |
7294 | How did the fight start? 7294 How has the soldier been controlled and directed during the action? |
7294 | In what formation were the Russians? 7294 Is not an aristocracy essentially proud? |
7294 | Is this order changed or is it continued in force when approaching the enemy? 7294 Was the second charge made like the first one? |
7294 | What becomes of it upon arriving within the range of the guns, within the range of bullets? 7294 When Major Vaissier advanced was he followed by every one? |
7294 | Where and when did the halt take place? 7294 Where and when were the leaders able to resume control of the men? |
7294 | Who can say that he never felt fear in battle? 7294 Why? |
7294 | Why? 7294 ( Why? 7294 After all, are not the losses we have seen on both sides demonstration that there was no real mêlée? 7294 And is there even more fire accuracy? 7294 And shall we then know as much as the masters? 7294 And, then, in actual engagement, where is their prescribed place? 7294 Are there so few really brave men among so many soldiers? 7294 Are they going to direct their horses front against front? 7294 Are three- quarters of the officers so stupid? 7294 Are we to believe this? 7294 At what distance did the enemy flee before it? 7294 At what distance? 7294 At what instant has he had a tendency to quit the line in order to remain behind or to rush ahead? 7294 Besides the intellectual progress, is there a moral progress? 7294 But did they aim in those days? 7294 But how will you make up these pack trains? 7294 But how would these men of small stature get into the saddle? 7294 But how? 7294 But if this fire is impossible, why attempt it? 7294 But my dear general, what are your orders? 7294 But suppose the enemy does not flinch? 7294 But to- day, who of us can explain page for page, the use of anything ordered by our tactical regulations except the school of the skirmisher? 7294 But what is to be done about it? 7294 But who can say that of the French nobility? 7294 But who practices it under fire? 7294 But why is firing by rank at will impossible, illusory, under the fire of the enemy? 7294 But with veterans-- But with whom is war commenced? 7294 But, outside of the picked corps, what was the French army then? 7294 By command? 7294 Can any one do this? 7294 Can regular and efficient fire be hoped for from troops in line? 7294 Can the cavalry maneuver on the battle field? 7294 Can you conceive two mixed masses of men or groups, where every one occupied in front can be struck with impunity from the side or from behind? 7294 Can you expect him to act in any other way? 7294 Could anything hold against them? 7294 Did he fight in the manner imposed upon him, or in that indicated to him by his instinct or by his knowledge of warfare? 7294 Did the Russians immediately turn tail, receiving shots and the bayonet in the back? 7294 Did the foot chasseurs know fire at command? 7294 Did they use it? 7294 Do they say that military science can only be learned in the general staff schools? 7294 Do we set our sights better to- day? 7294 Do you believe in opening and ceasing fire at the will of the commander as on the drill ground? 7294 Do you object that no one ever gets within two hundred meters of the enemy? 7294 Do you, then, believe in firing, especially in firing under the pressure of approaching danger, before the enemy? 7294 Does it seem an easy matter for such a force to ward off this menace? 7294 Does that mean that accurate fire at seven hundred meters is possible? 7294 Does war become deadlier with the improvement of weapons? 7294 Even on the range or on the maneuver field what does this fire amount to? 7294 File firing? 7294 Fire by Rank Is a Fire to Occupy the Men in Ranks But if fire at will is not effective, what is its use? 7294 Furthermore, if fire at command had been possible, who knows what Frederick''s soldiers would have been capable of? 7294 Halt, to shoot at random and cannonade at long range until ammunition is exhausted? 7294 Has he less heart than the infantryman? 7294 Have the methods of employment made the same progress? 7294 Have we then a solid army? 7294 Have your combatants opened out? 7294 How about the firing? 7294 How can such horses carry this and have speed? 7294 How can that be explained? 7294 How can this be possible with a mêlée? 7294 How could they have done so if the others had not given way before their determination? 7294 How did Montluc fight, in an aristocratic society? 7294 How did the men adapt themselves? 7294 How far should I extend? 7294 How many armies have sworn to conquer or perish? 7294 How many have kept their oaths? 7294 How many men before a lion, have the courage to look him in the face, to think of and put into practice measures of self- defense? 7294 How many of them, however, even at that moment, would be ready to risk their lives? 7294 How to approach the adversary? 7294 How to execute them by economizing precious lives? 7294 How to give orders that can be executed? 7294 How to pass from the defensive to the offensive? 7294 How to regulate the shock? 7294 How to transmit them surely? 7294 How was the charge made? 7294 How were the Zouaves engaged? |
7294 | How were these defects remedied? |
7294 | How would they recognize each other? |
7294 | How? |
7294 | However, did they actually use these tactics? |
7294 | I suppose they advance holding the horse by the bridle? |
7294 | If one can march under fire, can not the other gallop under it? |
7294 | If such a means of destruction was so easy to obtain, why did not our illustrious forbears use it and recommend it to us? |
7294 | If that theory had the least use, how could Marius ever have held out against the tide of the armies of the Cimbri and Teutons? |
7294 | If the able soldiers of Cromwell, of Frederick, of the Republic and of Napoleon could not set their sights-- can we? |
7294 | If the enemy charges, what happens? |
7294 | If the first and second squadrons are repulsed, but the infantry sees a third charging through the dust, it will say"When is this going to stop?" |
7294 | If you do, then what advantage is there in being able to see from a great distance? |
7294 | In France, will the powerful motif of pride, which comes from the organization of units from particular provinces, be useful? |
7294 | In column, of which the head fired, and whose platoons tried to get from behind the mead to enter into action? |
7294 | In minor operations of war, how many captains are capable of tranquilly commanding their fire and maneuvering with calmness? |
7294 | In what formation were the attackers? |
7294 | In what, except in disorder, did the American battles resemble these butcheries with the knife? |
7294 | Is it because the cavalry is the aristocratic arm? |
7294 | Is it because your skirmishers hinder the operation of your columns, block bayonet charges? |
7294 | Is it because your skirmishers would prevent you from delivering fire? |
7294 | Is it the good quality of staffs or that of combatants that makes the strength of armies? |
7294 | Is it then believed that there is ability only in the general staff? |
7294 | Is it true that the rations of men and horses are actually insufficient in campaign? |
7294 | Is not infantry affected in the same way? |
7294 | Is not private wealth, wealth in general, the avowed ambition sought by all, democrats and others? |
7294 | Is not this an answer to the question? |
7294 | Is the cavalryman not of the same flesh? |
7294 | Is there anybody on my right? |
7294 | Is there anything so difficult about looking forward a little? |
7294 | Is this because in war man lasts longer in the cavalry and because our cavalrymen were older and more seasoned soldiers than our infantry? |
7294 | Is this correct? |
7294 | Is this more reasonable than in the past? |
7294 | Is this what happens? |
7294 | It is not patriotic to say that the military spirit is dead in France? |
7294 | Learn what the field pack can be from the English, Prussians, Austrians, etc.... Could the pack not be thicker and less wide? |
7294 | Of which? |
7294 | On my left?" |
7294 | Ought it to be hoped for? |
7294 | Picked troops, dependable, did they use it? |
7294 | Shall we have only one kind of cavalry? |
7294 | Since Spartacus, have they not always been defeated? |
7294 | Since weapons have been improved, does not the infantryman have to march under fire to attack a position? |
7294 | So much the better? |
7294 | That a unit attacking from the front never succeeds? |
7294 | The colonel, a man of good sense, says,"Will you explain, sir? |
7294 | The question has been asked; Who saved the French army on the Beresina and at Hanau? |
7294 | The results of these roll- calls? |
7294 | They ask, also, if the Prussians used this method of fire successfully in the last war, why should not we do as well? |
7294 | They can not give a little? |
7294 | Those who deny the sentiment, and talk to- day so loftily, what do they advise? |
7294 | To- day when every one has the rapid fire rifle, are things easier? |
7294 | To- day who has formulated method? |
7294 | To- day, with accurate and long range weapons, have things changed much? |
7294 | Was even that fighting? |
7294 | Was he reduced? |
7294 | Was it because they had no back- plate? |
7294 | Was not that strict enough? |
7294 | Was the 6th Line Regiment engaged as the first support of the 7th Light Regiment? |
7294 | Were the casualty reports submitted by the captains of those days correct? |
7294 | Were the nineteen thousand missing men disabled? |
7294 | What became of the twelve thousand unaccounted for? |
7294 | What becomes of this disposition or this march order under the isolated or combined influences of accidents of the terrain and the approach of danger? |
7294 | What becomes then of the MV squared? |
7294 | What can be said about all these with reference to the enemy? |
7294 | What can have become of the twenty- three thousand remaining?] |
7294 | What can you say to a man advancing such ideas? |
7294 | What can you say to people who talk such nonsense? |
7294 | What did it cost? |
7294 | What do you think of cavalry troops so moved by brotherly love? |
7294 | What does this hesitation mean?" |
7294 | What else is there to be provided for? |
7294 | What formation obtained the maximum effort from the Greek army? |
7294 | What formation should infantry, armed with modern weapons, take to guard against flank attacks by cavalry? |
7294 | What good will it do when smoke, fog, darkness, long range, excitement, the lack of coolness, forbid clear sight? |
7294 | What if it was? |
7294 | What is our method for occupying a fortified work, or a line? |
7294 | What is the matter with the sailor''s uniform? |

7294 | What is the use of fire by rank? |

7294 | What methods caused the soldiers of a Roman army to fight most effectively? |
7294 | What more terrible fighters could be imagined? |
7294 | What of that? |
7294 | What point do you want me to guide on? |
7294 | What response is there to this argument? |
7294 | What then is to be done? |
7294 | What then must happen to charges of infantry, which marches while the cavalry charges? |
7294 | What was the duration of this attack against a mass, whose depth prevented its falling back? |
7294 | What will be the result? |
7294 | What would be the result? |
7294 | What would happen to a battalion in such a formation, at one hundred paces from the enemy? |
7294 | When from the captain, the section leader, the squad leader? |
7294 | When will they, confident in themselves, do spontaneously, freely, what their administration can not and never will be able to do? |
7294 | When, in France, will good citizens lose faith in this best of administrations which is theirs? |
7294 | Whence comes this tendency toward war which characterizes above all the good citizen, the populace, who are not called upon personally to participate? |
7294 | Where can data on these questions be found? |
7294 | Where is the threatened blow going to fall? |
7294 | Which? |
7294 | Who can say that he has not been frightened in battle? |
7294 | Who can speak impartially of Waterloo, or Waterloo so much discussed and with such heat, without being ashamed? |
7294 | Who has a traditional method? |
7294 | Who has not observed like instances between dogs, between dog and cat, cat and cat? |
7294 | Who is going to stand against such people? |
7294 | Who knows if the perfection of long- range arms might not bring back these heroic victories? |
7294 | Who to- day is braver than they were? |
7294 | Who, before Hannibal or after him, has lost as many as the Romans and yet been conqueror? |
7294 | Why are not night attacks more employed to- day, at least on a grand scale? |
7294 | Why cover the front everywhere? |
7294 | Why cuirassiers? |
7294 | Why did Frederick like to see his center closed in for the assault? |
7294 | Why do not authorities acknowledge facts and try to formulate combat methods that conform to reality? |
7294 | Why do you call back your skirmishers? |
7294 | Why does the Frenchman of to- day, in singular contrast to the Gaul, scatter under fire? |
7294 | Why is it that Colonel A---- does not want a depth formation for cavalry, he who believes in pressure of the rear ranks on the first? |
7294 | Why is it that they can not stand before the armies of the western people? |
7294 | Why is this? |
7294 | Why not adopt that of Marshal Saxe? |
7294 | Why not put your skirmishers in advance? |
7294 | Why not? |
7294 | Why should infantry be placed too close, and consequently have its advance demoralized? |
7294 | Why sound trumpet calls which they neither hear nor understand? |
7294 | Why take it up again? |
7294 | Why was this? |
7294 | Why? |

7294 | Why? |
7294 | Why? |
7294 | Why? |

7294 | Why? |
7294 | Will he have the last word then, who has the last cartridge, who knows best how to make the enemy use his cartridges without using his own? |
7294 | Will the result be terrible fights, conflicts of extermination? |
7294 | With the best faith in the world they say,"What is this? |
7294 | Would they succeed again? |
7294 | You are troubled about stopping the fire of your soldiers? |
7294 | You find that they show little coolness, and shoot despite their officers, in spite even of themselves? |
