They're fired upon from all three directions, although apparently not all at the same time.

But still, it was essentially a suicide mission that they'd just been sent on, and it just went badly immediately.

He said, they have sacrificed the light brigade that shall not have the heavy if I can help it.

So what's crazy about this is these 675 riders riding into 3,000-ish Russians in their cannons, most of them, the majority of them made it.

They made it to these Russian lines and they broke them up.

They actually, at least the Russian artillery position that they were charging toward in the center, they captured that.

They actually managed to force the Russian soldiers to retreat from that.

And so they captured those guns.

That's insane that that happened.

Like there should have been no one alive there.

And yet they actually fulfilled this nutso mission that should have never happened in the first place because it was a miscommunication.

Chasseurs d'Afrique.

Very nice.

Thanks.

I took three years of French in high school.

Oh, well, don't forget your Italian accent, though.

We have the whole of Europe covered.

So when the Light Brigade charged through this valley of death and broke up the Russian artilleries and the French broke up another one, I think there was actually one left still.

They had to ride back and were being fired upon by that remaining one, too.

So they had to ride back from the valley to get to where they started back, you know, to safety again.
