Chapter 241: Zhao Dutian's Choice

In the imperial study of the Imperial Palace of the Han Empire, Zhao Dutian gently swayed the fine wine imported from France in his hand, sipped slightly, and said to the special envoy Georges Macartney in a tone of regret:

"Ambassador George Macartney, it's not that I don't want to send troops, but the Han Empire is ready and has gathered heavy troops at the border of the Tucson fortress, but Your Excellency can rest assured that as long as I completely expel the power of the Kingdom of Spain from South America, I will do my best to help the British allies attack the French!"

Special Envoy George Macartney looked at Zhao Dutian with a look of "Don't embarrass me", if it weren't for diplomatic etiquette, I really wanted to point at his nose and ask a few questions--Did you make all the promises you made before let the dog eat them?!

Special envoy George Macartney, his face suddenly gloomy, replied meaningfully: "Your Majesty, Frederick the Great, who is far away in Europe, has now become the enemy of most of Europe, I think, should Your Majesty reconsider the next strategic plan?"

The Kingdom of Spain did not participate in this war, and your actions amounted to aggression! Snatching other people's belongings for no reason is in the laws of the Empire, but it is punishable, does Your Majesty want to do the same?

The robber is sentenced by a judge, and even the emperor may not be able to escape justice! ”

Zhao Dutian smiled and replied indifferently: "Who said that the behavior of the Han Empire was aggression? South America is not the homeland of the Kingdom of Spain, I am just contributing to the great cause of liberation of millions of South American people, and in my eyes, it is more noble to let tens of millions of people regain their freedom from the exploitation of the decaying Kingdom of Spain than to help an imperialist to make profits! ”

Zhao Dutian put down his wine glass and stared at Special Envoy George Macartney: "Your Excellency, not everyone is afraid of Britain, please don't show your Anglo-Saxon pride on my turf!" ”

After expressing his determination, Zhao Dutian replied with a somewhat lazy demeanor, and said disapprovingly: "Your Excellency, you can reply to the British cabinet and your majesty the king in the same words, I will not be the first to tear up the alliance, but the Han Empire is not a slave of the Anglo-Saxons!"

As for my attack on the Kingdom of Spain, this belongs to the grievances of our Americans, the purpose of the Han Empire is that the Americas are the country of the Americans, and we just want to get back what belongs to us.

Hehe~~~"

After hearing this, Special Envoy George Macartney's emotions calmed down, and a cold gaze flashed in his eyes, "Your Majesty, in the Americas, we in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland also have uncederated land, I hope you have prepared to deal with what you just said, otherwise, you may be the next Frederick!"

With all that said, if there is no other need, I will submit to the Cabinet His Majesty's diplomatic intentions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Zhao Dutian waved his hand: "I won't send it far!" ”

With the departure of George Macartney's envoy, the relationship between Britain and the Han Empire suddenly fell to the freezing point of history, and the alliance that was signed became a waste of paper, and the only reason why the two sides did not tear the alliance was only because they had their own goals and fears!

Of course, the matter of George Macartney's envoy was just a small episode for Zhao Dutian, since he learned about the form of war in Europe, he disdained the British Covenant, even if Prussia could fight again, Zhao Dutian did not believe that Frederick the Great could create a miracle and ensure that he was immortal, even if Frederick was a military genius!

This is not about the command of military ability, but the crushing of national strength and military strength, the closer to the modern era, the weaker the role of the military commander's ability in the war, Zhao Dutian still remembers his previous life, the United States imperialism across the world, in several modern wars, how can the commander have any strategic calculations?

As long as those high-ranking officials of the US imperialists follow the military regulations and rules and command the battle, they will be able to win the battle!

In modern warfare, there is really not much difference between a high-ranking officer who has graduated from a college class and the command ability of a military genius......

To put it bluntly, everything depends on strength, and you don't have to wait for modern warfare, in the era in which Zhao Dutian lives, the crushing of national strength can already make up for the lack of military commander's talent!

It's like a genius commanding a group of infantry, but he can never beat an armored corps commanded by an ordinary officer!

When firearms are popularized on a large scale, as long as you don't be an idiot to a certain level, 100,000 muskets can extinguish 10,000 muskets with your eyes closed!

Of course, war is a very complicated science, 100,000 against 10,000 people do win steadily, but 10,000 troops will not stupidly face 100,000 people head-on against the enemy, they will run away, they will take a detour, and they will take advantage of the 100,000 troops to break them one by one!

Napoleon was the best in this regard, and the reason why he was always able to win more with less was because of the legs of the French soldiers, which were faster than the opponent's mobility, so that Napoleon's men and horses could easily penetrate into the gap of the enemy's army and be crushed one by one before the enemy army combined!

The grasp of this seems simple, but in practice, only the parties concerned know how difficult it is!

If there is a slight mistake, when the tactical goal is not achieved, the enemy's reinforcements arrive on the battlefield, which is a tragedy from victory to defeat!

Waterloo is a living example of this!

Napoleon was defeated not at the hands of the British, but at the hands of Prussia and the British coalition, and if Prussian reinforcements had not arrived on the battlefield in time, history might have been rewritten!

However, victory is victory, defeat is defeat, and even if there are many regrets, people will not think deeply and be sentimental, at most they will sigh after eating and drinking, and sigh nonsense, 'Oh, Napoleon would have won if he had done this'!

Therefore, Zhao Dutian did not take the threat of George Macartney's envoy to heart, and solved the French, even if he sold his strength to help the British, there was no common enemy in North America, and the Han Empire and Britain would turn their faces sooner or later!

Allies are never maintained by friendship, and the interests between countries are the most naked and ruthless!

Don't you see, Austria and the United Kingdom have been friends for a century...... Eh, I mean a good ally for a hundred years, do you turn your face when you say it's a face?

This is not a simple personal feud between the Queen of Austria and Frederick, if it were not for the knot of Silesia, the Queen of Austria would never turn her face and deny people!

Well, now that the European powers have begun to pinch each other, the next step is the stage for the Han Empire to play personally, this time, there will be no interference from outsiders! (To be continued.) )
