Now we have to use the confusion in the French ranks and break the defense under Sedan. The plan is as follows:
The corps will split into two groups, one of which will hold a bridgehead under Sedan, and after the arrival of reinforcements and artillery will expand it and strike south towards Stonne, then Rethel. The second group will cross Meuse in Charleville-Mezieres, and after the seizure the city will move towards Liart.

This should close the French units in the lap north and south.
