Chapter 473: Into Tibet

When the news www.biquge.info of the counterattack of the European French Republic reached Zhao Dutian's ears, he was really shocked, according to the news of the spies left on the European continent by the Han Empire, the population of France had already dropped to less than 10 million, and almost all of the losses in the years of war were young men!

Again and again with slogans such as democracy, republicanism, freedom, fraternity, etc...... To be precise, the practice of motivating the lower classes of the people certainly allowed the French Republic to mobilize the population of the whole country to the war with the greatest possibility, and even used women, the elderly, and children into the farmland, factories, shops and other production units to replace the young French men who joined the army to fight!

The superiority of this system has allowed the French Republic to repeatedly burst out in desperate situations to shock the whole world's fighting power, so that the joint attacks of the monarchies have been constantly crushed, and the power of the entire European aristocracy and the oppressive class of the church has been weakened several times!

This is simply the French Republic using the blood of the French to constantly confront the feudal system, religious forces, and even the interests represented by the big capitalists in the entire European continent!

The French Republic has been able to hold on to the present, and even Zhao Dutian feels that the whole of Europe is about to go bad!

However, as a spectator with a wide eyeliner, Zhao Dutian has foreseen the end of the French Republic, even if the brainwashing methods of extremism such as the republican nation are successful, the French Republic, which has been weakened to the point it is today, will no longer be able to support a world revolution of the same scale!

This can be seen from the uprisings that broke out in the feudal monarchies where the main army was almost completely wiped out, and the painless tug-of-war with the weak monarchical forces, except for the spiritual encouragement of the uprising and revolution of the lower classes of the people, and the confrontation with the Russian tsar, whose foundation of the monarchy system has not been excessively weakened, and the governments of various monarchies supported by the continuous source of energy, are completely a dry fight between two children......

However, although the revolutionary ideas of the representatives of the French Republic gradually fell into a trough, Zhao Dutian knew very well how powerful the spread of this revolutionary idea was!

It only takes time to ferment, and when there is a force sufficient to unite the revolutionary masses among the rebels who have been subjected to this revolutionary idea, they can overthrow the already weakened European monarchy!

At that time, the British, who retained the monarchy, became the next object of erosion of revolutionary ideas!

Naturally, the British also saw this, and even though the country was heavily indebted due to years of war, they had to send two veteran legions to the European continent to attack the French Republic, the fortress of revolutionary ideas!

Thoughts are hard to extinguish, but the carriers of ideas can indeed be destroyed!

As long as the French Republic, a vehicle for the constant spread of dangerous ideas, falls, the revolutionary insurrectionists who see no hope of victory should be suppressed for the time being......

In this series of changes, Zhao Dutian was pleasantly surprised to find that all the forces in Europe had withdrawn from the east to the revolutionary war that was taking place on the European continent, and the support of the British Tibetan independence elements was only a verbal appeal, and the British garrison in Southeast Asia, except for a local army of only a few thousand people in India, was all pulled back to the European battlefield, and the British rule in the colonies was all maintained by the servant army composed of locals!

Even some time-honored Southeast Asian mercenaries were pulled by the British to exterminate the French Republic!

In a sense, some of the mercenaries who have fought old wars in Southeast Asia are not much weaker in combat than the British native Sequoia Army!

The target of aggression faced by the Han Empire has basically taken off the support of the Western European continent, how could Zhao Dutian let go of this opportunity?

First of all, at the end of the sixty-seventh year of the Han Dynasty, the Mondola Department on the Spanish Peninsula was recalled by the Han Empire, and this recall was not an attempt by the Han Empire to gather troops, but just a statement!

After all, less than a thousand of Mondola's troops had returned after years of war losses......

One by one, they don't even have a basic flintlock pistol, and their military uniforms are ragged like a beggar!

At the same time that the Han Empire recalled them, the British withdrew all military aid to the Mondola Division, and as a result, the Mondola Division became a 'beggar army' that gnawed at the old bottom......

In any case, Mondola's troops had no merit and hard work, and after returning to the Han Empire's controlled areas, Mondola was not only promoted, but also granted the position of real power in the independent division, of course, Mondola's troops could not be selected from the new Han army, and he ruled only a second-rate cannon fodder force composed of most Korean servants and a few foreign mercenaries......

Mondola's cannon fodder troops numbered a lot, numbering tens of thousands, and were basically equipped with obsolete bayonets and flintlock pistols, which were used to impose brutal rule on the occupied areas after the Han army attacked!

When the revolutionary war in Europe entered the final stage, the Han Empire decisively abandoned the occupation of Spain and concentrated all its attention on the expansion of Asian territory!

This move can allow the Imperial General Staff to better concentrate on the use of its own army, and the expansion targets are in the surrounding areas of the land of China, and it is very convenient to mobilize troops!

With the exception of a small number of white discontent in South America, there was little opposition to this adjustment within the Empire!

There were even many Han people who had been cultivated by the Han Empire with a primary sense of national honor, and they had a positive attitude towards the expansion policy of the new dynasty, and the advanced weapons and systems of the Han army made the Han people full of victory confidence!

At the end of the 67th year of the Han Dynasty, after the Han Empire withdrew to the Mondola Division, as expected by the British, it announced that Tibet had been owned by China since ancient times, and invested more than 500,000 Han Chinese new troops and 100,000 imperial field troops into it.

Under the guidance of Zhao Dutian, the Han Empire began to improve the real sense of infantry and artillery coordinated operations, and at the same time, the tactics of skirmishers also began to be fully applied to actual combat!

The plateau area and complex terrain of Tibet can just give full play to this kind of tactics!

Due to the large number of Han recruits, this sudden change in combat mode made the entire Han army extremely uncomfortable, but it doesn't matter, no matter how many ridiculous mistakes the Han army has, there is no need to worry about defeat, because the combat concept in Tibet is still stuck in the era of cold weapons, and the enemy of the Han army is weak and even the Han recruits who make mistakes can't beat it!
