The defeat of Britain dealt a blow to the anti-French alliance, and there was no one more mournful than the Kingdom of Prussia, which lost its capital. Although the Prussians succeeded in defeating a German infantry division, the Germans later seemed to have expanded their army in size for revenge, and the Prussians did not seem to have increased much in spirit as a result of this victory.

Commanded by Blucher himself, 120,000 German troops came to Danzig. After a short adjustment, the German army had sufficient supplies and weapons and equipment at this time, and even the newly recruited rookie soldiers wore new navy blue uniforms and S1 steel guns, looking refreshed. BlΓΌcher, after witnessing the spirit of his troops, concluded that he would be able to bury Prussia before Christmas 1794 and let the boys go home for the holidays.

"Listen to the battle horn siren, put on your military uniform and take up arms! The members of the National Youth League gathered together and embarked on the journey to defend the country! Let's see you goodbye, dear mother, please kiss your son goodbye, goodbye mom, don't be sad and don't be sad, I wish us a safe journey! Goodbye dear hometown, the star of victory will shine on us, goodbye Mom, don't be sad and don't be sad, bless us all the way safely! ”

The neat queue and the loud singing voice, this majestic picture is moving. This is the "Song of the Internationalist Youth League" that was handed down from the Tang Dynasty, and the singing unit was the first regiment of the German Youth Guards, which was composed of all the backbone advanced. This is an independent unit that is not subordinate to several German divisions, and it is also one of the few units in the German army with a prefix. This unit was composed of outstanding recruits led by young veterans who had participated in the German War of Independence, and in the previous battles with the Prussian army, they fought resolutely and bravely, carried forward the dauntless revolutionary spirit, and directly defeated the enemy army several times their size with unfavorable forces, and won the commendation of the whole army.

Blucher had worked in the Tang Army, so he naturally knew what kind of experience a unit with history, soul and its own characteristics needed to grow up, and the Young Guard was Blucher's attempt in the German army.

The original German army was more ferocious than Prussia in battle, and the German soldiers were more or less influenced by doctrine, and they firmly believed that their fighting was just, for the liberation of the German nation, and for the spread of the gospel of internationalism throughout the world. Blucher once clearly remembered a conversation with a Tang officer, and Blucher asked how to make the army brave and brave even in the face of adversity. The answer of the Datang officer was, then give them a reason to die for it.

Blucher obviously did the same, and the political work of the German army was even stricter than that of the Tang Dynasty to some extent, and there were frequent lectures and the like, and basically after entering this big dye vat for a month or two, people's mental state was different. Blucher didn't see this as brainwashing, he thought he was spreading the truth.

At this time, Blucher stood next to Scharnhorst, the division commander had already come to the Eastern Front, but his army was temporarily resting on the second line, and Scharnhorst was appointed chief of staff and came to the front to serve Blucher.

"The 1st Young Guards Regiment will be the first to launch an offensive against Danzig after the battle has begun, and I do not think this battle will be particularly difficult, for the Prussians, after their last victory, did not extend their gains, but took the initiative to retreat, but instead drained all their spirit. It is said that this is the stupid Prussian king Frederick? Wilhelm II's idea. Danzig was already the last important city of West Prussia, and after the occupation of this place, there was little room for East Prussia to survive. Scharnhorst introduced.

Blucher said: "The Tang Navy and our newly established German Navy will provide us with fire support at sea. ”

Scharnhorst jokingly said: "Navy? Those guys were fishermen and boatmen before, and after receiving the warships of the Tang Dynasty, they could fight, but they had to prevent them from hitting their own heads with shells. ”

Blucher also smiled, "It is estimated that it is the meaning of the meaning, and it mainly depends on the professionals, and our navy follows to learn from the experience." ”

Scharnhorst said: "I heard that Datang has a mechanism for joint exercises, and fighting with them can learn a lot, and it would be good if we could arrange some joint exercises with our army." ”

Blucher said: "The Tang Army in Europe has been established, and there will definitely be such an opportunity in the future." However, the drill still has to be done with the regular Tang Army, and there are many miscellaneous colonial armies under the Tang Army, and the combat effectiveness is uneven. The Yamato Corps I led before was pretty good, and the discipline was good, but the Japanese were too poor, too short, and very obscene. It is said that the Gurkha Corps in the European and Tang Army is also available, but I am not familiar with it. ”

Scharnhorst sighed with emotion: "I saw the armored troops of the Datang Marine Corps before, it was really powerful, that kind of offensive was full of mercury, and there was nothing that the enemy could stop." ”

Blucher nodded and said, "The mechanization of the army is a general trend, and our German army will definitely do it in the future." The Ministry of Defense is said to have acquired dozens of light tanks, and there will soon be an experimental force build-up. However, the level of equipment is definitely not comparable with Datang, the Tang people are very good everywhere, but they always keep a hand in this kind of place. ”

Scharnhorst smiled and didn't make any comment. This kind of thing is very normal, and any country is closely guarded against important weapons. The other Prussian kept the Dresser pistol a secret until 1848 until the beginning of the war.

While the two were chatting for a while, they faintly heard the rumbling sound of artillery from the north, the two looked at each other, and Blucher said: "It seems that the naval guns have begun to shell the city of Danzig, well, such an intensity of artillery bombardment, I'm afraid even our German army can't stand it, since this is not necessary, let the navy and our artillery fight for a few more days, scare enough of this group of Prussians, and then send people to persuade them to surrender." ”

For the wisdom of the marshal, Scharnhorst still admires it. The marshal's service experience in the Tang Army made him also tainted with a lot of the Tang Army's mode of action, such as this method of not being able to do without contribution. (To be continued.) )
