"Master, the first batch of 50,000 Italian puppet troops has been reorganized, starting from the second lieutenant upwards, all the official officers are all mobilized soldiers, and we have disbanded all the 'first companies' and fire reconnaissance companies for this purpose, and integrated more than ten orthodox officers of the middle-level mobilization army as senior generals.

All the Italian puppet soldiers are all from the initiative to surrender, the 'political attitude' of the test of the former Italian soldiers, themselves have basic military literacy, although their courage to fight still needs to be improved, but the queue, shooting and the attitude towards obeying the orders of the superior is very good, the most important thing is that none of these streamlined Italian puppet soldiers, none of them are nationalists, most of their ideas are to be soldiers to eat food, Many of them have even worked as mercenaries in the past, or are mercenaries themselves, and are regular army soldiers who have been transferred from the regular army.

When we attacked the Kingdom of Italy, the Italian royal family had collected almost all the mercenaries and civilian armed groups along the Mediterranean coast, and these people carried guns and fought to make money, because many of them were not born in Italy at all, but only where they earned money and ate.

We captured a large number of Italian regular army firing rifles enough for the Italian puppet army, and also used a small number of captured Italian guns to form an artillery battalion exclusive to the Italian puppet army, Italy's industrial base is still very good, among which the best and most advanced Italian breech guns, the data is not weaker than the most advanced artillery of the German Empire, which is enough to suppress the uprising and deal with the partisans.

Moreover, in order to ensure that the Italian puppet army does not 'send' a small number of Italian artillery to the local resistance army or guerrillas when carrying out the task of suppression, each Italian artillery battalion is equipped with a gendarmerie composed of all mobilized soldiers, which acts as the inspector in the Italian puppet army on weekdays and the supervision team in wartime, so as to make up for the fear of death when the Italian puppet army fights.

50,000 Italian puppet troops have been scattered into the Italian peninsula, and the Sicilian Peninsula, where the guerrillas have made the most trouble, have sent more than 30,000 Italian puppet troops to gradually change their guards with the mobilized troops guarding there, and enter the mountains to encircle and suppress the Sicilian guerrillas.

According to the latest situation report, the Italian puppet army, under the control of the military pay and overseers and the direct commanders of the mobilization troops, had no problem in fighting the backward guerrillas who only had flintlock pistols and arquebuses.

According to the training results of the first batch of Italian puppet army, the second batch of Italian puppet army 50,000 standards have begun to be screened and eliminated, among which Pius IX has given us a lot of help, and Christian devout disciples have helped us point out many Italian nationalist rebels who tried to blend into the Italian puppet army, which has well ensured the purity of the Italian puppet army's 'ideology'. ”

After Qin Xue'er finished reporting, she subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, cautiously raised her eyes to the pensive Lin Haoda and said: "Master, the Italian peninsula has been completely brought under control, the training and reorganization of the Italian puppet army has also entered a virtuous circle, and the mainstream surrender faction in Italy has unified their opinions, under the assassination of the special task force controlled by Zhaoyun, as long as the family that expresses the slightest disagreement with the master you are the emperor, it has been completely erased, and the reason is the 'political assassination' of the Italian rebels."

Zhaoyun is very good at this aspect, and he is very rigorous from beginning to end, even if other Italian upper-class families have suspicions, they can't find evidence, and the Italian upper-class families who try to find evidence will be purged by Zhaoyun soon, and now, the rest basically don't dare to have the slightest The Italian capitulation faction who acted to the death, and we have made a big allocation to many loyal Italians from the bottom to fill the vacated positions of the purged Italian upper class, and these promoted Italians have the handle in the hands of Zhaoyun, as long as they dare to give birth to dissent, they will experience a punishment that is worse than death after being ruined!

Master, all our preparations are ready, and all that remains is for you to decide when you will ascend the throne and become emperor. ”

"Oh? Did those Italian capitulationists still offer to support our proclamation as emperor? Even if I didn't establish the Kingdom of Italy, let alone the Roman Empire they aspired to? Lin Haoda asked with a sneer.

Qin Xue'er shook her head and replied: "Although the current Italian capitulation faction is willing to support you as the master king of Italy, and Pius IX is also willing to crown you, most of them still hope to retain the title of Italy, even if it is to inherit the glorious title of the Roman Empire......

Master, if you want to establish a 'Han' country in Europe, it will become the target of public criticism, this is not a question of whether you will be judged treason, but it will directly distort the cognitive concept of all Italians, after all, the various classes of the Italian peninsula have long accepted the theoretical basis of the concept of nation, and they are willing to accept us as one of them to rule them, but they are not willing to allow themselves to be completely reduced to puppets and slaves of other peoples......"

"Fortunately, Qin Xue'er, you are not carried away by the victory in front of you, this is the reason why I have not ascended the throne as emperor for a long time, if I insist on establishing a Han empire and turning all Italians into second-class citizens, I am afraid that the civil unrest and guerrillas that have just been suppressed will be 'weeds burned inexhaustibly' everywhere.

But I can't compromise with the Italians, so I can only make the Italians even more afraid of me, so that they will completely lose all hope of resisting us!

If the anti-Han allies had just experienced a crushing defeat and let the Italians see that their best hopes were completely shattered, our Han Empire would have been successfully established, instead of being mired in a people's war just after the founding of the country was declared.

Moreover, crushing the anti-Han alliance's covetousness for us can also allow us to obtain a stable period of internal repression in the empire, and revolutions and uprisings are the most powerful at the beginning, as long as they are suppressed vigorously in the early stage, so that the Italians know that their strength is a stone with an egg in front of the Han army, no matter how much the external anti-Han alliance is supported, it will be powerless, and the stability within the empire will naturally be firm. ”

Qin Xue'er looked stunned: "Master, do you want to fight a general battle first, and then return to China to ascend the throne and become emperor after victory?" But isn't our fuel going to be used to seize the oil fields of the Middle East? ”

"Qin Xue'er, we don't have to defeat all the anti-Han allied forces, we just need to select an opponent with full weight, and let the whole of Europe see the invincible power of the Han army in the shortest possible time!"
