Cyr, seeing it thus accumulated and alarmed, felt sure he could drive it into the Danube by a single charge of his whole corps. He ordered forward a few pieces of cannon, every discharge of which swept away whole tiles, but which could not be expected to remain in battery before M. De Kray's sixty pieces of artillery. He hoped to draw the attention of Moreau by the report of this cannonade, and to bring him from the corps of reserve to the corps on the left. As he did not come, he sent an offic...er to apprise him of the circum- stances, and to obtain his order for attacking. But their union was at an end. It was believed by the officers of the staff, or they affected to believe, that St. Cyr wished again to move to the left, with a view to detach himself more, and to act alone. He was answered by an order to move to the right, to connect himself more closely than he was accustomed to do with the 180 HISTORY OF THE may 1800 corps of reserve, which formed the centre of the army. This measure is indispensable, he was told, that the commander-in- chief may have it in his power to dispose of your troops in case of need.
