How many people has Sharpe killed?


I mean, seriously, Richard Sharpe's kill count in the books must be well into the thousands.

Really, if anyone has this information or has gone through every book and counted the number of lives lost to the remorseless killing machine that is Sharpe, post it, please.

I have no idea whatsoever. Can't be any more than James Bond though :)

He was a soldier who was often on the front line, if not he was undertaking dangerous missions, during one of the most brutal wars in Britains history (and if you know anything about British history, you will know that the Brits have fought almost every single country on the map at one time of the other, the Napoleonic war was huge and could almost be considered a World war).

He probably has killed many people but that is completely realistic.
I bet he killed a lot less people than most German machine gunners in World War one, or Russian snipers in WWII, etc.

Given all this, I don't see why he would even hesitate to bump off his bitch of a wife. As much as he'd probably LIKE to see her suffer, he'd pick some method both quivk and relatively painless. He's also smart enough to not leave any evidence or let any witnesses see.
