But,onthewhole,somuchthemoreas thetimegrewlonger,Bazainehadto cometotheconvictionthattobreakout wasimpossible,andboththesortiesof the2ndand7thOctober,'downtheMozelle,couldonlyconfirmhiminthisconviction.Wherever,even,hewishedto probetheGermanpositions,everywhere hefoundthemwatchfulandpreparedfor anobstinateresistance.Suchatough, patentpersistenceandsleeplessguarded watchfulness,amidsttheseverestcircumstances,couldbeexhibitedbyGerman troopsonly,andwhenplacedundersuch intelligentleadership.
