"The Ottomans don't have to worry, our first goal is the anti-Han alliance, this time, I will not allow any accidents, completely eliminate the anti-Han alliance, Dingyuan and Zhenyuan will cooperate with the army's actions to crush the fleet of the anti-Han alliance in the English Channel!"

Hong Tiancheng shouted to his subordinates at a cabinet meeting.

"Your Majesty, the army of the Ottoman Turkish Empire has been sent to the Balkan Peninsula, although the small countries there have stubborn resistance, but their armaments are lax, most of the soldiers are still in the cold weapon stage, and they are not the opponents of the new Ottoman Turkish army at all, and it is only a matter of time before they fall, if we don't send reinforcements, I am afraid that we will lose our trust in the Balkan countries."

One of the intelligence officers below reminded.

"Dishonesty? No, no, no, the credibility of this world is for selling, and the treaty is for tearing up, let the Ottoman Turks go to the city and conquer the land to their heart's content, and the Balkan countries just help us to hold back the Ottomans and protect the flanks of our army.

As long as we solve the anti-Han alliance, in retrospect, the Ottoman Turkish Empire is a bunch of scum, and the two-front battle has little impact on the combat strength of our army, but everyone also knows how bad the road of European countries is, with our current capabilities, maintaining the logistics and transportation of one front is already the limit, and if we start a war on two fronts, our logistics system will collapse.

Those off-road trucks aren't a panacea!

Therefore, I ordered that all the next efforts should be concentrated on the Kingdom of France, and that the Kingdom of Romania should rely on the integrated white local garrisons to resist the new Ottoman army, which had only been established for two years, and there were not many of them, and they would not be able to fight for a while. ”

"Long live the King of Heaven, the Taiping Army will win!"

In the fanatical call for a cult of personality, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Military Conference set the strategic direction for the coming period, and groups of Taiping troops gathered on the French border, and a smooth logistics route was steadily supplied to the front line under the scattered defense of a division of the Taiping Army.

Now there is only one factor that restricts the combat strength of the Taiping Army, that is, the smooth logistics routes and the poor road conditions in the European continent!

It can be said that the Taiping Army drove the local white government to organize a large number of people to build roads while fighting, and made outstanding contributions to the economic development of the white people on the logistics route......

The smooth flow of roads has a good effect on the economy and commerce, but in fact, the ultimate goal is for war!

The reason why the ancient oriental countries in the 21st century make the world hegemon deeply afraid is because of the rapid transportation network extending in all directions in the interior, which can flexibly deploy tens of millions of troops and corresponding materials in a short period of time to support any known front!

If there is no developed transportation network, even if there are more troops, it will become difficult to start a war, just like the Opium War of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in history, claiming to be a million-strong army, but the ability to mobilize tens of thousands of troops in a fight has already reached its peak......

The troops who really fought against the Anglo-French forces were the troops of several provinces near the Beijing Division, and the armies in other regions could only be limited by the long distances and primitive roads.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is now facing this dilemma, at the beginning of the Crimean Khanate, the ammunition was smashed as if it didn't need money, and when it hit the Kingdom of Denmark, it began to be cautious to ensure that it was not wasted, and when it fought the Kingdom of France, it was necessary to prepare sufficient ammunition and materials in advance!

The farther the distance, the slower the progress of the war for the Taipings.

As for the Kingdom of Italy, a country with a large territory in Europe, it was directly ignored by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Anti-Han League, the Anti-Han League could not get used to the nature of the Italian Kingdom and could not believe them, and the Taiping Army did not take the combat power of the Italian army into account at all......

As a result, the Italian royal family achieved his political goal, maintaining semi-public neutrality, watching the situation on the European continent, and getting closer to the side that was picked.

The Italian royal family can survive so far, and their political concept of judging the situation is inseparable, what national glory, royal dignity, it is not a matter at all, as long as they can save their lives, the Italian royal family can sell anything!

In the face of the aggressive offensive situation of the Taiping army, the Kingdom of France, which was jointly ruled by the Bourbon royal family and the liberal parliament, was overstretched and could not hold back many troops to go to the front.

The reason is very simple, the Taiping army killed too hard in France before!

There are not many soldiers of the right age to join the army, and there are still many young people who have to keep the city running, the fields are cultivated, and the Kingdom of France is so large, you can't pull everyone out to fight......

As a result, the Kingdom of France raised more than 80,000 troops, including the local garrisons, claiming to be 100,000 troops......

Fortunately, the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of England supported a large number of reinforcements, and the two countries also knew that this battle was the key, if they could not stop the Taiping Army, it was very likely to reproduce the scene of the past, the Taiping Army burned and looted and abolished France, and then marched into Spain and swept across the Iliban Peninsula!

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's behavior of supporting and giving preferential treatment to the local industrial and commercial bourgeoisie has won the support of many locals, and Hong Tiancheng's decentralization is still very useful, and now not everyone has to fight the Taiping army to the end, unless it is the kind of country where the aristocratic power is deep-rooted!

Obviously, the French Kingdom, which was peared by the Taiping army, has long since turned into duckweed in the water.

The French army, known as 100,000, the Spanish army, and the English army, known as 100,000, were deployed on the border between the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of Germany, a vassal state of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Although the armies of the anti-Han alliance countries claim to be 500,000, even if more than 10,000 Portuguese troops are added, the actual number will not exceed 400,000......

Now Hong Tiancheng has even ripped off the skin of the Axis group, and made it clear that the chariot and horse want to be the hegemon of Europe!

However, the anti-Han alliance did not grow at all, in addition to a large number of Mini rifles, they also dug deeper trenches, built stronger walls, and the concept of anti-artillery holes also appeared for the first time, which was forced out!

If the war drags on into a long-term attrition, perhaps the Anti-Han League can really figure out a World War I-style trench warfare based on the actual combat effect.

Of course, Hong Tiancheng will not allow the kind of tug-of-war of attrition in World War I, the Taiping Army of 5 divisions with absolute firepower superiority, opened the prelude to a frontal assault, Hong Tiancheng does not need to care about battle damage, he has only one request, to eliminate the anti-Han alliance as quickly as possible, and occupy France!
