I saw my name.

There's a Michael Redgrave as see as far as to his indomitable man of the sea,

Horatio Hornblower.

Zippercruder.com slash zip zippercruder.com slash zip zippercruder.com slash zip.

Zippercruder.com slash zip zippercruder.com slash zip zippercruder.com.

In the years of past, since I was 18, I've been to many lands.

The artist and poets of Panama and Salvador, the Highlands of the Sea, Africa, Sweden,

Siberia. But in those days, I was young midshipman Horatio Hornblower on his

majesty ship indefatigable. It was then that I first set foot on any soil up in

my native England. And yet, my midshipman Jack Brace and I stood, I'm sure, at Thomas Harbour,

had no idea of what was to come. An expeditionary effort was about to embark against France,

and Brace and I were being properly superior about the files of soldiers who stood

drawn up awaiting orders. I remember how we knotted gravely to each other, Jack Brace and I,

but even while we did left Helen Mason turned and called to me. I crossed the key and reported

with no idea of what might be in store. Sir, Hornblower, there's a special duty for you,

sir. This is Lord Edrington, major commanding his botanic majesty's forty-third foot. And this

you don't mind if an Mason I'll handle this myself. You, sir, your name's Hornblower?

Yes, sir. It'll be more proper if you address me as my lord. Aye, sir.

My lord, Hornblower. Q their name, Hornblower. Family name? My lord, the name, Hornblower.

And I don't get you back up. You fit your name, it's your name, and you're settled with it.

Make the best warring name. The lieutenant Mason here tells you to speak French.

Well, some little, sir. A little, eh? A little, eh? If it's enough.

Can speak a word, isn't it, Philip? Leave that to the French themselves.

Mr. Hornblower, there's a problem of communication between Lord Edrington,

commanding his expedition and the French forces. Sir.

This gentleman here, alarm me. The monkey to put those, Brigadier General,

and the service of his most Christian majesty, Louis 17.

Sir, may I present to Mr. Hornblower, ah?

Oh, Mr. Hornblower. Mr. Hornblower.

Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am.

The transport ships are standing by. We must sail on the tide, of course.

Exactly. And separate transports are my battalion and the French.

Beaks and coasts of France together, go shore together, wet together,

all that sort of rubbish. Well, ma'am, to the Navy's midship and hounder,

and certainly there will be no difficulty, ma'am.

Sir, you mean, I'm not to remain on board the interfaticable, sir?

You speak French, Hornblower. You'll be detached.

As you'll go on board the transport, which carries the French troops.

Well, sir, during the first battle on the Earth, it's a bit of an opportunity.

Not only to go on board, you'll land with them in France.

It's a cross-channel invasion, may make history.

Don't you know that Edrington wants the ball on the back on the French throne?

The convoy is sailed on the evening tide.

On the deck of the transport, I could see the interfaticable leading the line.

I felt very lost.

But at least I preferred the French to Lord Edrington.

I would never admit it, but almost I believed he'd make a botter of the whole expedition.

And he are not the only expeditionary force, sir.

The main body will land at Kiburong, a 5,000 man.

Well, that's a little better, sir.

But I beg your pardon, sir, I overreach my...

No, no, no, please, to continue.

Well, even 7,000 men, even 10 of 15 of the French Republic, as 100,000,

now but observed, the main army of the revolutionaries,

where are they situated?

They are here, in the south of France, to come north to attack our main force,

by which way must they travel?

I see, but by where this road?

Precisely, the coastal road, and of the where we land,

we, the small force of British and French wireless,

there is a bridge, monsieur, on the land.

If the bridge is destroyed, the revolutionaries can be held back.

Even so, held back, small force, while our main body raises the standard of his most

Christian majesty, Louis the 17th, first through all of Brittany, and then on to Paris.

We shall say in France, monsieur, we, the few men, who hold the bridge of Montiac.

I'm caught up in the game.

My attention is on every play and every whistle,

but what I'm missing is a signal coming from my kidneys.

That signal isn't like a ref's whistle.

It's more of a silent SOS which could be warning the

of an increased risk for events like heart attack or stroke,

and a way I can catch that signal.

A simple urine test called UACR.

If you have type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure,

talk to your doctor about the UACR test.

Detect the SOS.

The next morning, the convoy rounded Belle-U on drop tanker.

There was Muzieak.

And beyond it lay the Villain River,

and there was the bridge.

The invasion drive went ashore without a single shot being fired.

My feet were wet with soiled water,

but for the first time in my young life,

I was standing on foreign soil.

Under.

I want you all to get yourself a horse.

A horse?

Yes, one of these.

The French are going to set up their troops at the bridge.

Yes.

Blow it up and stay there.

So my troops, the forty-third,

will be down the river half a mile.

Yes, there's a Ford.

You see, there's a Charlotte place where the enemy might try to get across.

We'll have to keep both places secure, of course.

Yes, but what do I do with the horse?

Ride it, man.

You'll be with the French.

But I can't say I trust them.

And just have been troops, you know.

Yes.

I want you to ride back and forth and keep me informed.

Keep your eyes on them.

Let me know the moment they consider any monkey fix.

They even know what they'll do next.

Melona, I've never been on a horse before.

And it should be quite a good experience.

Here, what is the name of Satan's dead?

Well, no.

It's down the beach.

One of the French unloading of those the privates.

I've got an exception.

That's a guillotine, sir.

Guillotine?

Yes, we know that.

They're taking it to Muziac and setting it up in the town square,

I've heard.

You did a lot of the heads off even, didn't they?

Yes, I must say it startled me too, Melona,

but the marker says some of the people in Muziac deserve it.

It does, you know.

The revolution is began at, he says.

And it's only fair that the royalists should give them

the taste of their own meds tonight.

And I can't say that I like it myself, sir.

I liked it not at all.

That afternoon, after the bridge was blown up

and the troops disposed, the French set up

the headquarters in Muziac in the village in.

The guillotine too was set up.

I was in the kitchen where a French woman was preparing food,

and the window was open.

What is it?

It's only a drum.

It comes from the V-latch square.

No, it's only a drum, man, sir, really.

You can see it from the window, yeah.

The guillotine?

Oh, we miss you.

We're about to use it too.

Five men with their hands tied behind their backs and their

marching on up and towards the stairs, leading up.

Rather not hear it.

And I'll see it.

Man, sir, thanks for the water, but have you got something stronger?

What was that?

What was that?

Tell him in question.

Caron, he tells the village, gentlemen,

we must interrupt our breakfast.

We must saddle up at once and join our troop.

It would appear the battle has been joined.

And so,

even now, when I think back to that day,

my legs peak at the sort.

The horse I rode was worse than any evening deck.

I clung to his mane and was carried back and forth between the bridge and the

Ford, between the so-called frogs and Lord Edrington's lobsters.

But every musket shot, the animal started like a frightened stag.

It's probably so warm there, there's a little horse about a horse.

No, no, you saw it on the raiders and they were till a rope, darling.

I wish they hadn't made worse.

Get down, man.

Get down and hide under the tent today.

Yes, Lord.

All right.

That's better.

To my mind, a sailor on the horse make it more dangerous than a bridge with a rolling

troops.

Well, what news will our friends avenge for him?

Was that a little happening, sir?

No attack of any size?

A few attempts, Lord.

May by less than a single company of the enemy.

Beat them off, of course.

Several shots from our cannons scattered them like kittens, Lord.

The markers said they're a rabble army.

The cannons are all accurate or serve.

The cannon amanned by British seamen.

It's Shipman Jack Brace directed the fire.

I know.

Oh, yes, yes, of course.

Your own cannon, Lord of Shorty calls.

Well, it's a comfort to have one's own

accompaniment directing fires.

You know, those roaring troops are bizarre.

I want to lay holding up on, uh,

well, there's no sign of panic among them, sir.

I should hope not.

If I was by only half a company,

pardon, Lord.

Excuse me, Lord.

What's happening, Lord?

There are more of them.

You've had no trouble here, either, sir.

A company of the enemy, no more.

They'll attempt to cross the fall in four.

I thought they were burning part of unnecessarily, sir.

They're not full, Lord.

The leader is no harm in assuming they're not.

Hmm.

Oh, Lord, the French have any rear guard out towards Piperon?

Fork's...

Piperon, sir?

Plus, they don't hear a plain question.

Is there always that all rear guard home, Lord?

Yes, but that's behind us to the north.

There can't be any...

A rear guard, Lord, I don't know, frankly.

Then find out for the...

Find out upon fire, sir.

There wasn't a rear guard out towards Piperon,

and I arrived at the bridge.

I rained up for a moment, beside Jack Brace's position.

Ah, Commander of the Hoffmaning and Hornblower.

Mr. Brace, I presume.

Oh, no, I put him for a field knife, or a razor.

Notice of what positive genius I've exposed my artillery, huh?

And how's Dan's matters with our red coat, Ben?

Oh, the lobster's fine.

It's fine.

And how's Dan's matters with our red coat, Ben?

Oh, the lobster's fine.

Still standing?

Oh, they're fine at standing.

Jolly fine.

Question is, can they unbind enough to fight?

It's not been enough fighting to tell.

True enough.

The same thing here.

So I'll tell you this, my friend.

It may be treason, but I'm inclined to believe these trenches

could give a better account of themselves in the 40th or 40th putt.

I don't hold with these spitten polished lobster backs.

One attack and they'd cave in.

I'm sure of it.

Bedrigant is what it about an attack on our rear.

Is he now?

I told the markers about it.

Who's old?

What did he say?

Oh, he just shrugged.

Absolutely not, babe.

One gesture from a Frenchman tells more than a thousand words.

Ask me, Lord Edgerton, that silly fool.

I'm not quite so sure of that.

Clear as a bony nose on his face.

Rare guard.

How can the enemy possibly attack from the rear?

Now look here, Homebler.

Here we are up on a good high hill.

Gives elevation, excels but the cannon.

Here we are, I say.

We can see the entire country behind us.

It is any sign of...

Oh.

Homebler, what are you staring at?

I don't believe it.

I simply can't believe it.

Dust.

Just a cloud of dust.

The enemy.

The enforced behind us.

Race ready to attack us from the rear.

Look out here, Guns Jack.

I will help, but I don't warn you or Edgerton.

Go on up.

Up you concerned man.

Come on.

I'm sorry, sir.

THE ENRES yet.

The animal,可 not!

The enemy they're anarchists, I expect it to do the same.

And habla kurpano, enraged with the vegetables..

Did you believe it was possible?

Yeah, two.

War all are things if possible.

Three of them are the same.

A divisory action in front of us, that, meanwhile...

It is but our main process of crippling ourselves.

That's overourse, eh ma?

Today I want to say,

Well, it's overworld somehow.

Because the marquees were holding our phones.

It looked bad, Sir.

Can it?

Well, they seem badly disorganized when I left.

Huh.

No fading or discipline.

I expect they'll run like that at home.

No, no, Sir, they won't.

What's the store-bone?

Undisciplined troops, no type of trailing.

Something attacked when unexpected corps.

They're brave, Sir, Sir.

I've observed that.

What's the bravely got to do with it?

Disciplined horned alert, requirement, discipline.

Oh no!

What?

What did I tell you?

Here they come running like bandits.

These are the cavalry troops.

The retreats, Sir.

And the calls man to the store.

That's your sits.

Listen.

Listen, I'll make it, Sir.

We'll be overwhelmed.

I think not.

So began what was to me an incredible experience.

Alandas, streamed the rapid royalists.

Fantic with fear.

The enemy launched attack after attack.

A troop of cavalry bore down upon us.

Meanwhile, the British soldiers formed ranks.

As calm as if on parade.

Mr. Preller, the forty-five foot will form a square.

Could please, just a moment.

What have I done?

Hello!

What have I done?

Hi!

All in two!

Pa!

Come here!

Backward!

We all!

We can't believe!

My left hand!

We all!

A slow, deliberate movement.

And yet, in a moment it seemed.

There we were, inside a hollow square of red coated backs.

And the cavalry came on.

Inmate!

Fire!

Very good.

Stop them for the time being, eh?

Scrutter!

The forty-five will resume.

Call on them at once.

Each attack was beaten off.

But each was followed by another attack.

And another.

The sun beat down.

Hops and heavies hammered on an anvil.

It seemed as if we would never.

Game the shore and our waiting ship.

Well, there it is.

In sight at last.

The beach, Mr. Ormler.

Yes, Lord.

Down below us.

I see your boats are busy taking off the voyage.

We best get down there at once, Lord.

No, Mr. Ormler.

If we do, we shall have the Frenchies on top of everyone.

He's up to the forty-third to contain the enemy.

Until the beach is cleared of everyone else.

I see your answer.

Then we shall see about getting ourselves off.

Mr. Ormler, please.

Ormler.

Good stop for a stand.

Would you say, Mr. Ormler?

Yes, ormler.

It's the only clear approach for the beach.

And stand, they did.

The enemy attacked.

Wave after wave.

Until only till break and shatter on the firm lines of the forty-third.

Then went down.

The ranks closed up and stayed closed.

Behind us on the beach, the evacuation proceeded.

Finally, the last broiler list was taken off in our ship's boats.

We ran.

The men on foot with their heavy knapsacks and the regimental colors and our country's flags streaming above them.

And my lord Edrington and I and his staff on horse, sawing at the reins to keep our beasts from falling down on the steep slope and the trampled stretch of sandy beach.

And then there we were at last at the water's edge.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

And we were in it.

Scrammling through the surf towards the ship's boats.

No, there.

We found some pundits over it, huh?

I saw my lord.

Get way on the horse.

Way home.

Straight there.

I say over.

I say.

Look at him.

Oh, I've followed his lordship.

He got his coattails ringing wet.

Expensive coattails too.

You can be sure.

So he did.

But he got us all off.

Royalists know.

Oh, Jack, you should have seen it.

The whole battalion marching.

Never out of step.

Home square.

Aim and fire.

You know.

March again.

Home square and fire.

And over and over again.

It looked like a rocket.

Yes.

You know, Jack.

Those lobsters advised.

They're not bad in a pinch.

Not bad at all.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.
