In a beautiful mountain house, Madame de Pompadour was admiring her elaborate garden, followed by two French maidens respectfully holding some watering utensils and Madame Pompadour's personal belongings. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in a gentleman's suit, wearing a three-cornered hat, hurried in and reported to Madame de Pompadour, who was admiring the flowers:

"Marquise, the war in North America has been lost, the Han Empire has won a complete victory, and 10,000 'French mercenaries' have been wiped out!"

Madame de Pompadour frowned slightly, then stretched out her brow, and commanded: "Prepare a carriage for me, and I will go to see the British ambassador in the afternoon!" ”

After the middle-aged man received the order, Madame Pompadour and the two pointed to their foreheads, and said to the maid behind them with a somewhat painful face: "Ali took Nima and helped me back to the bedroom, my migraine is again." ”

――――

When Madame de Pompadour received the news, Zhao Dutian and the envoy George Macartney had already moved into the city of Los Angeles, and the tallest church in the city was also hung with the pigeon battle flag of the Han Empire, and groups of soldiers of the Han Guards patrolled the main road.

In fact, when the news of the defeat of the Franco-Spanish coalition came, the rich class in Los Angeles left here by boat......

Naturally, there was no fighting in Los Angeles, and even the Franco-Spanish army was defeated, so where did the armed militia in the city, which was less than a thousand people, dare to resist?

Almost as soon as the army of the Han Empire arrived, this small Spanish city raised the white flag, and there was no intention of all the people participating in the battle, and the old and young women and children went into battle to fight with the army of the Han Empire......

This is also related to the previous battles of the Han Empire, rarely abusing and killing civilians, although white people in the Han Empire, unless they make significant contributions, they have to be heavily taxed, and if they can't pay the tax burden, they will be exiled to Louisiana for mining, and the most odious thing is that until they dig and pay their taxes, the Han Empire does not allow these official mining slaves to marry wives and children!

You must know that during the mining period, the poll tax is also calculated, and with Zhao Dutian's black belly, those white mining slaves, who don't dig for ten years, want to leave the mine......

However, how many of the people who survived after ten years of digging are in good health?

The mining work in this period is in the most primitive state, and the lethality rate is extremely high!

Those Indian soldiers who guarded the mine slaves didn't talk about human rights!

This is also the reason why the rich class in Spain ran away, and the principle of taxation in the Han Empire was that the richer you are, the more you will collect, unless you are a systematic Han!

Poor white people, if they are willing to work hard, it is not a problem to eat in the Han Empire, after all, the land occupied by the Han Empire has a mild climate and fertile land, even if there is no efficient chemical fertilizer, it is no problem to feed millions of people!

The California area is big!

Taking Los Angeles would basically declare that the war with the Kingdom of Spain was over.

The newly defeated Spanish colonial government will not be brain-dead enough to gather another army to try, and if it is defeated again, the foundation of the Spanish kingdom in Mexico will be shaken!

In order to avoid becoming the target of attacks by European countries that have stopped the war, Zhao Dutian naturally will not try to defeat Mexico, not to mention whether the Han Empire can cope with the three-nation coalition, and Zhao Dutian does not have much confidence in whether he can subdue those nationalist underground forces in Mexico......

In the era when there were no mechanized armies such as tanks and cars, troops that relied on mules, horses and two-legged marches would never be able to catch up with the pre-revolutionary revolution in Mexico and replace them!

After all, the Spanish colonial army would not be stupid enough to suppress the uprising in Mexico City, and watch the army of the Han Empire drive straight in and destroy itself!

This kind of behavior of making wedding dresses for others on the bright side can be encountered by Zhao Dutian when he dreams......

Even if the Spanish colonial government withdrew the colonial army and handed over the power to those nationalists to fight against the army of the Han Empire, Zhao Dutian was not surprised!

If you are really in a hurry, never believe the bottom line of politicians!

This is like that in Zhao Dutian's previous life, any major country with nuclear weapons and ballistic missile technology, when it is really facing the crisis of regime collapse, those in power will definitely not hesitate to press the nuclear button!

That's how the era of nuclear peace came......

Now that the war phase has ended, the next step is naturally to reward meritorious deeds, which is a cumbersome event in the Han Empire, which attaches great importance to military merits!

The Polish hussars were undoubtedly the first achievement, they not only crushed the cuirassiers that the French were proud of head-on, but also routed the French line infantry attacking the artillery position, and completely annihilated the main force of the Franco-Spanish army!

In the end, not a single formed unit of the Franco-Spanish coalition army escaped home......

Of course, all these results are inseparable from the fact that the battlefield is located in the plain area, and this kind of terrain is undoubtedly the most suitable for cavalry troops!

The French commander chose this terrain because he wanted to give full play to the advantages of his cuirassiers, but he didn't expect that a backward Indian Empire would have a team of charging cavalry that could crush the cuirassiers!

It is naturally impossible for the Polish hussars to replenish their losses, but their soldiers' treatment has been raised to a truly elite level!

After the war, more than 3,000 Polish hussars, with more than 2,000 left, lost hundreds of people in the case of continuous victories, and it can be seen from the side that the combat effectiveness of the European armies is by no means as weak as it seems on the surface!

The next thing is to reward Paprov's Russian Foreign Legion, these Russian strong men are actually quite easy to deal with, give each of them a large bonus, go to the brothels and taverns of the Han Empire, and be very happy......

With such a big victory, Zhao Dutian can't be stingy!

Of course, because Zhao Dutian made a generous move at the time when he was in the atmosphere, the loyalty of these soldiers did not decline at all!

The Great Han Guards did not have much merit in this battle, basically they belonged to the whole process of soy sauce, but this Heavenly Son of Heaven pro-army did not need any reward, their own treatment was enough!

If it really comes to the time when the Han Guards are desperate, it can only mean that the Han Empire has reached the point of life and death!

The Self-Defense Forces of the Americas, Zhao Dutian directly ignored it!

Then, Zhao Dutian will have to face a difficult problem - the outbreak of the American Field Army! (To be continued.) )
