240 Victory Rewards
The reason why Lin Haoda suffered such heavy losses along the way, after the occupation of Versailles, only more than 10,000 soldiers were still fighting was because he was facing the main force of the field army controlled by the National Convention led by the Brittany region today, and almost all the active people's armed forces in the entire territory of France were gathered.
The other two armies only had to deal with a small garrison and a group of improvised militias.
Therefore, in terms of the speed of the march, the armies of the other two routes were much faster than Lin Haoda's route, and the armies of the other two routes marched along the banks of the Seine, which could rely on time-saving and labor-saving water transportation, saving much time.
Lin Haoda's headquarters fought all the way, and the line infantry division that drove to the Rouen area was like a tiger descending from the mountain, destroying Vernon and the city of Rouen, which had little defense.
Although this army did not fight a battle of equal strength, the occupied territory also brought Lin Haoda a large amount of commission, which was counted in the reward for capturing the Verdun fortress by the all-out war system.
This is the new all-out war system auxiliary function discovered by Lin Haoda after he was promoted to the tenth level of prestige, and the army produced by the system will give him a summary battle report when the battle is summarized, no matter how far the war is waged.
The Total War system settles campaign rewards based on victorious battles that meet the criteria.
For example, this time the three-way army went together, and before the Battle of Verdun, there had already been more than a dozen skirmishes on the other two roads, but it was only because the scale was not up to standard that it was not calculated.
Of course, such skirmishes can be cumulative, and when the belligerents decide the winners and losers, the all-out war system will be counted together.
Lin Haoda, who was sitting in a former aristocratic mansion in Verdun, got not all good news from the other two road battles.
The army in the direction of Rouen, which was facing a city with empty defenses, had always maintained a victorious posture.
But the two corps of pure infantry divisions heading to Marseille met a subversive catastrophe!
When the legion marching to the city of Marseille attacked the revolutionary city of Lyon, it encountered stubborn sniping from the revolutionary army, and although it finally took the city of Lyon, the legion suffered a lot of losses.
From the city of Lyon, this regiment was harassed by guerrillas from all directions, seriously delaying the march.
The two battles of Valence and Avignon caused serious damage to the establishment of these two infantry divisions, and they had to stop the offensive and reorganize, and at the same time, a large number of guerrilla attacks on the logistics route also made the two infantry divisions with too long a front face the problem of insufficient ammunition.
The morale of the Marseille revolutionary army was greatly boosted, and the city government of Marseille, which commanded the whole battle, won high honors, and a large number of spontaneously organized guerrillas joined the victorious Marseille revolutionary army in a steady stream, and recaptured the cities of Valence, Lyon, and Dijon.
The momentum is earth-shattering!
This is the basic war report conveyed to Lin Haoda by the all-out war system.
According to the report of the war, as of the date of the occupation of Verdun, in addition to the garrison of the Paris region, Lin Haoda's division had only more than 10,000 guards corps left in the three-way field army, and after the victory of the march in the direction of Rouen, there were more than 40,000 ordinary line infantry corps.
After more than a month of three-way sorties, only more than 50,000 of the 120,000 troops remained......
The enemy, armed with revolutionary ideas, is indeed a formidable enemy!
In addition to the rewards that are being settled, the number of enemy soldiers and French civilians killed in dozens of battles has increased by 200,000, and the million-level killing targets have accumulated to 600,000!
The territory under his control extended along the Seine to the Rouen region, and since most of the defenders in that area were militiamen, it would not be long before they reached the city of Le Havre and completely cut off the Brittany from the north-eastern part of France.
Although the Southern Legion was completely annihilated, the last city of Troyes had not yet fallen, and was controlled by Lin Haoda.
The biggest gain on the territory was the fortress of Verdun, the first major military fortress node in the north-west of France, which captured the fortress of Verdun and left no longer a threat to the north of the Paris region.
If these areas are recaptured by other forces, the all-out war system will not retract the rewards that have been issued, but will show a negative value on the historical smash point, if Lin Haoda does not regain the lost territory after the settlement, this part of the negative historical smash point will be deducted when the next reward is settled.
[Your excellent performance in the land of France has been recognized, and the following rewards are now issued after statistics:
1. Although your three-way army failed in one way, the main force led by you completely wiped out the main force of the coalition army now in the hands of the French National Convention, and wiped out all the field troops led by the Jacobins, causing an internal split in the democratic forces in France, and at the same time, the Girondists also took the opportunity to jump out and not recognize the power of the National Convention in Brittany, and formed the Girondist National Assembly on their own to represent the interests of bourgeois business.
The city government of Marseille has been extensively expanded because of the great victory of the Marseille revolutionary army led by it, and has become the only legal revolutionary army in southwestern France, which has successfully won the recognition of most cities in southwestern France, and has a faint status to compete with the National Convention of Brittany.
The cities on the north bank of the Seine in France, controlled by the Revolutionary Towns, were in a state of confusion and dispersion, having been cut off from the power of the National Convention in Brittany, and were in fact semi-self-reliant.

Lin Haoda looked at the rewards of the settlement of the all-out war system, and couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't expect that the defeat of my army all the way made the city government of Marseille rise in strength and break away from the control of the National Convention of Brittany.
In addition to the Girondists and the revolutionary governments of all sides, the reactionary aristocratic armed forces in the Vendée and in Strasbourg were able to help me share a lot of the pressure. “
Subsequently, Lin Haoda clicked on the interface of the class mall and began to check the information of the cuirassiers.
[Class: Cuirassier.]
Size: 60 players per team/500 historical smash points
Details: The cuirassiers were modified modern heavy cavalry, and the French cuirassiers produced here only rode large horses in Normandy, wearing copper armor that made musket bullets almost useless against them, and even the leather boots were thickened. The infantry had little to do about it except to form a phalanx to protect themselves and hope that the shells would hit the cuirassiers directly. But the fatal drawback was that the weight of the cuirassier after leaving the horse would make it difficult to move an inch.
Weapons: Steel sabre
Costumes: Blue military uniform, helmet with feathers, full cuirass, high riding boots.
Advantages: It is suitable for breaking through the weakness of the enemy's defensive line, giving the enemy a devastating blow, and can often occupy an advantage in the cavalry hedge, and can crush the light cavalry troops, and the morale is high.
Description: They are the heroes of the cavalry, each cuirassier is a carefully selected cavalry elite veteran, only a strong body can wear a heavy cuirass, to ensure that they can minimize battle damage in the face of lead bullets, cuirassiers are the only known troops that can effectively protect against lead shots, of course, if the cuirassiers stand still and let the opponent shoot close to the face, it can still penetrate the cuirass. They are the decisive force on the battlefield, please use them carefully, their high recruitment and maintenance costs are difficult to gather an absolute superiority in the number of cuirassiers, in addition, they can be used to hedge against any enemy cavalry units, you will definitely not lose! 】
"Yes, this is the real main force of the battlefield charge, whether it is dragoons or hussars, they can't replace the role of cuirassiers, this branch of the army must also form a large-scale army of thousands of people!"
Lin Haoda, who lacked the power to make a final decision, did not hesitate to allocate 50,000 historical smashing points after seeing the introduction of the cuirassiers, all of which were used to recruit cuirassier troops.
