Chapter 124: Decision
"Your Majesty, the situation on the European continent has been completely reversed by Queen Maria Theresia, France has now become a lonely army, and the only ally, the Spaniards, have also been suppressed by the British to take care of themselves, in the 7th year of the Han Dynasty, the British Royal Navy took control of the sea in the Mediterranean, and completely drove the Spanish fleet out of the Mediterranean, and the Spanish army has basically withdrawn from the European battlefield!"
Speaking of this, Black Eagle glanced at Angela, who was standing behind Zhao Dutian and rubbing His Majesty's shoulder with his small hand, and paused deliberately. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhao Dutian was like the evil villain boss in the film and television drama, raised his eyes and waved his hand: "Go on, it's okay, the Clouey family is your own people!" ”
Black Eagle saw that his boss didn't care, and continued: "At the beginning of the eighth year of the Great Han Dynasty, there was no large-scale battle in the European battlefield, only Queen Maria Theresia led her army and her allies to attack cities and lands everywhere, according to the latest intelligence, Maria Theresia 's coalition army, led by this tough queen, is intending to attack Alsace, approach Strasbourg, and at the same time enter the Kingdom of Naples in Italy!"
Our Secret Service in Europe estimates that Maria Theresia now wants not only to dream of recovering Silesia, but also to reintegrate Bavaria, Alsace and Lorraine into the Austrian monarchy.
Relations between the Austrian army and Frederick's army had become strained again, and Frederick himself had returned to Silesia from the Prussian opera house!
The French cabinet has found itself at the mercy of England, Austria, the Netherlands, and Savoy (in the historic region of southeastern France and northwestern Italy, where the Duke of Savoy later became king of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the House of Savoy became a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Italy!). The siege!
The kingdoms of France and Spain are at an unprecedented low point, not to mention colonies, and even in the European battlefield, the French and Spaniards are showing extremely obvious fatigue! ”
Zhao Dutian felt the kneading of his little hand, and suddenly there was a trembling, and he reached out and patted Angela, signaling her to rest for a while.
"Black Hawk, the French army in Louisiana, how many more are there?"
"At most, less than 10,000 combat soldiers! Moreover, the French colonists in Louisiana were not very numerous, especially in the Rocky Mountains region near our Han Empire, almost all of them were desolate, and the Indians outnumbered the French! ”
Zhao Dutian's lazy gaze suddenly sharpened, and he said in a deep voice: "The next operation of the Special Operations Office will focus on Louisiana, and soon, we will enter Louisiana!" ”
After Black Hawk left, Angela asked, "Why don't you fight the Spaniards first, but the French first?" ”
Zhao Dutian smiled evilly and hugged Angela's thin waist, pinched her delicate little nose, and said, "Of course, because my own wife is Spanish, I naturally want to see your face." ”
Angela rolled her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, you should tell Louise that little silly girl this sentence!" Although I don't know your specific intentions, I do know a little bit about the general situation, Louisiana is obviously better to obtain than Mexico, but, I don't understand, Louisiana is large enough and extremely rich in minerals, but it is so desolate that there is almost nothing but wild beasts and Indians!
Moreover, the Indians there already have their own alliance organization, and in the long-term colonial war against the French, they have long been monolithic, oh, by the way, they are called Sioux, if Your Majesty wants to tame the Indian tribes in California, to rule the Sioux Alliance, it is difficult! ”
Angela said it was decent, the slogan of the Americas is the Americas is very energetic, but in the face of the alliance of Indian tribes that have really been united for a long time and have been accustomed to being independent, it is the Indian ** who wants to fool into the Han Empire without killing a river of blood......
Previously, in order to conquer the northern region of California, Zhao Dutian also used an empty cake and a bunch of honorary noble titles to subdue the other party!
However, at this time and at that time, the system of the Han Empire had long been finalized, and the tragic situation of those so-called Indian nobles being kneaded into various shapes by Zhao Dutian could not be hidden......
Maybe the lowest-level pawns of the Indians will yearn for the rich material life of the Han Empire, but those high-level Indians will never become Zhao Dutian's second kneading object!
However, these are all minor problems, if you don't accept it, you will fight, if you don't surrender, you will kill, Zhao Dutian will not blink!
Sioux or something, Zhao Dutian has not investigated, in the entire Sioux Alliance, there will be no more than 10,000 adults who can hold weapons, and the total population is a tragedy!
After all, the Sioux are just independent Indian tribes living around the Rocky Mountains, although there are not many French colonists in Louisiana, but there are very few Indian tribes there, and the French do not have a large number of immigrants, so it will naturally be sparsely populated!
"Angela, the front-line field troops of the Han Empire have reached more than 30,000 people, not to mention the combat effectiveness, based on the number of people alone, our field army in North America is already the largest, why don't we choose the strongest one to fight?
As you know, Louisiana is so vast and sparsely populated that we can easily get a quarter of North America by annihilating a French legion stationed there, so why not? ”
Zhao Dutian no longer joked with Angela, and explained with an indifferent expression why he chose the French colony!
The French army is now recognized in the world as being better than the Spanish army, and it is the most appropriate thing to take advantage of this great opportunity to smash the strong people around you first!
As for the defect that Louisiana is more desolate than Mexico, it is not a problem for Zhao Dutian, there are not many people in Louisiana, but there are many gold mines, as long as there are gold mines and expand the population, it is really not a problem for Zhao Dutian!
This is what Angela is most puzzled about, she doesn't know that Zhao Dutian can exchange gold for people, so naturally she can't understand why Zhao Dutian chose Louisiana, which is desolate except for minerals and territorial area......
However, Angela wisely closed her mouth after hearing Zhao Dutian's explanation, she was just curious, since Zhao Dutian didn't want to say it, Angela wouldn't have to ask to the end!
In fact, in addition to the above reasons, Zhao Dutian has a small concern about not playing Mexico......
