Chapter One Thousand and Eight
The battlefield is a strange existence, and most of the guys who have just entered the battlefield are excited to "whoop" and "whoop", or who are so frightened that they are trembling, most of them are people who have just entered the battlefield.
A look of indifference, plus cynicism. The shells fell, and he hid in the bunker and smoked.
This kind of guy must be an old fritter on the battlefield!
Li Xiao wanted to go to the battlefield again, and wanted to smell the gunpowder smoke again.
Pity! As the generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty, it is unlikely that he will be on the battlefield in person. Even if he was twenty kilometers away from the battlefield, the generals around him would be terrified.
Li Xiao felt that the days of peace were rusting him.
Every day, except for listening to the report, I listen to the report, and everything I know is learned from the document.
Zhang Huang said that Li Xiao didn't want to manage the civil affairs, and he didn't like to manage them. The matter of needles and threads is chattering all day long.
Ai Husheng was thinking about how to open a bank all over the world. By the way, some Ming bonds were issued to support the infrastructure in full swing in China.
The Jinling Yangtze River Bridge was opened, and the construction team was almost immediately split in half. After adding manpower, a team went straight to Wuhan to build the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge.
The other team went straight to Jiangyin to build the Jiangyin Yangtze River Bridge.
Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, two old thieves, were entrenched in Xining, and as soon as they had time, they went to the capital to lobby and wanted to build the railway to Xining.
Oh my God!
Xining is a high, permafrost to build a railway, which is a worldwide technical problem.
In later generations, it was also an unimaginable difficulty for customer service, and it took a lot of money to complete it.
With the current technical conditions, do you want to build a railway from Xi'an to Xining?
Master Man has already moved his family to the tank, and if this guy grows armor one day, Li Xiao will not be surprised.
The two newly formed tank divisions finally fell into the hands of Man Ye. The 1st Tank Army, with two tank divisions plus one motorized rifle division.
They were provided with logistical support by 500 large cargo airships, and when Chifeng was reviewing the troops, the airships in the sky could only be described as covering the sky and the sun.
Man Ye seems to like today's position and stays in the tank all day. The guy who didn't know a lot of big characters actually gnawed Sun Tzu's Art of War.
Every time Li Xiao sees him, this guy no longer has a cigarette on his ear, but a pencil!
Li Xiao said that Man Ye would become Rommel in the future, and Man Ye asked Li Xiao. It's called a dragon or something, how many tanks are under it, what model.
Man Ye wanted to evolve into an armored marshal, but Ao Ye evolved into a landlord.
The airship landed on the Xianghe River, where the headquarters of the 1st Division was located. It is not far from Tongzhou, and it is a place personally chosen by Ao Ye.
Walking into Ao Ye's house, Li Xiao was startled.
The vines on the shelves are looking forward to the loofahs, and the loofahs are falling down one by one. The ground is neatly planted with cucumbers and tomatoes from the Americas.
Red peppers, purple eggplants ......! It was not like a general's home, but rather an old farmer's garden.
Ao Ye was shirtless and wore big pants, and his dark chest hair had turned some white. The two chest muscles on the chest are bulging, and the eight-pack abs are covered with crystal sweat.
This guy has just passed his fiftieth birthday, and according to the standards of the Ming Dynasty, he can already call himself an old man.
At the age of fifty, he can still have this figure, Li Xiao is very envious.
After looking at the eight-pack abs, Li Xiao looked at himself again: "What about your beer belly that can hold a case of beer?" ”
"I'm gone! One is five kilometers in the morning and five kilometers in the evening. Do 100 push-ups in the morning and afternoon! Ao Ye said while weeding.
Li Xiao picked a tomato, which is still a rare variety. The vegetable market didn't sell it!
"You're idle!" After washing under the faucet next to him, Li Xiao gulped down the tomatoes.
"It's idle, you have the ability to send me to the Black Sea to fight. Aren't you annoying that Israel?
Send us a division, and I will definitely give you a clear and clear understanding. Ao Ye said in his mouth, but his hands were not idle.
"Okay, my Ao Ye! Your first division is being reequipped, three armored regiments, one motorized regiment, one artillery regiment.
And you have to add three airship brigades and three hundred airships!
The whole army is the earliest to change your clothes!
You still want to go to the Black Sea to fight, you can tell me about it yourself. How many ships will it take to transport you to the Black Sea?
When Cao Bianjiao saw me, he said that I was eccentric, and I went to Xi'an last time. Drag me to his barracks and let me find a random soldier.
I got a fire-burning soldier in the cooking class, and this guy easily did a hundred push-ups, and then ran five kilometers like a live donkey.
After the incident, he actually said that this is nothing. You can also carry a tank for another five kilometers! ”
"Blow it! Get a tank to crush him and ask him if he knows what a tank is. Ao Ye pouted.
"You know what? Cao Bianjiao didn't change his clothes, and built a tank out of the barracks with paper shells for the soldiers to carry for training.
In the eyes of those silly boys, tanks are made of paper shells, and of course they can carry them. ”
"What's the use of saying this, you can't get a battle by training all day long. I'm rusty!
But when there's a fight, can I still play with these things all day? Ao Ye threw down the hoe irritably.
Sitting on a small stool and Li Xiao was angry.
Li Xiao knew that his generals were looking forward to war.
The value of a soldier is embodied in war.
If there is no war, the value of the military will not be reflected. As generals, Ao Ye and Cao Bianjiao both have a sense of loss.
In the Liao army, the promotion rewards are based on military merits.
Now the most officers who have been promoted are marines.
There is no way to do it, the Marines are stationed overseas, and they have to face a thousand strange enemies almost every day.
So much so that the officers wanted to be transferred to the Marine Corps. This made Ao Ye and them have a deep sense of crisis.
"There is no fight now, no one except the Marines. Even if you want to fight, you have to change your clothes. Li Xiao calmly finished eating the tomatoes in his hand.
Ao Ye picked up the hoe again, but he still didn't fight.
The Ming soldiers wanted to ask for war but could not, but the Crimean border was already in full swing.
Countless soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army, under the command of their commanders, rushed to the lines of the Israelis.
Behind them, countless artillery pieces were firing shells frantically.
The day after the attack by chlorine bombs, Austria-Hungary counterattacked with chlorine bombs. However, they obviously have no experience with chlorine bombs!
The Israelis used chlorine bombs, all of which were released in a concentrated manner. Inside an area, a layer of aerosol is formed.
And the Austro-Hungarian chlorine bombs hit the east and the west. It just so happened that the wind was blowing again, and the already sparse chlorine bomb. Either it was blown away by the wind, or it didn't form enough concentration to be fatal.
Hebrew soldiers, these days are not idle. Each of them knows how to use gas masks.
The first time I saw the chlorine bomb, I put on a gas mask.
This is far stronger than those soldiers of Austria-Hungary.
Chlorine bomb attack, more than 10,000 people died in Austria-Hungary. And the Austro-Hungarian chlorine bomb attack, only a few Hebrew soldiers died.
These dead guys are still unlucky. Killed by a chlorine bomb that was not very powerful in the explosion!
The chlorine bombs on both sides were almost depleted, and the enraged Austro-Hungarian Empire began to launch a ferocious attack.
Shells rained down on the positions, but the Hebrews crouched in the trenches, leaving only a few observation posts.
The density of machine guns reached one Makqin per 100 meters. A rain of bullets from crossfire formed a wall of death.
Every single one of the people who hit this wall was flesh and blood.
At the same time, countless mines, tearing the soldiers who stepped into the minefield to shreds.
In front of the position, the corpses of Austro-Hungarian soldiers were covered.
Just a few days later, the bodies began to decompose. The smell of rancid smell filled the battlefield, and the Hebrew soldiers had to wear gas masks all day long.
"Austria-Hungary kicked the iron plate, and this time it was a lot of fun." Frederick shook the whiskey in his glass and looked at the visiting Napoleon.
There were only four people in the room, Napoleon and Mula on the French side, and Frederick and Bismarck on the Prussian side.
The four of them drank wine and sat on the sofa and their co-workers like old friends.
This time at the invitation of Frederick, Napoleon came to visit Prussia. The external reason is to discuss the issue of the distribution of benefits after the war against Russia.
In reality, however, France and Prussia were engaged in a closed-door meeting.
"I didn't expect that the Hebrews, who had always only done business, would be so able to fight. When I first started, I thought it was going to be a one-sided war.
However, as it stands, this is not the case at all.
Austria-Hungary suffered heavy casualties, and it is said that more than 10,000 people died on the first day of the attack by chlorine bombs. Napoleon shook his glass, but said nothing.
"The fact that the Hebrews had such a large number of chlorine bombs proves that there are already factories for the production of chlorine bombs in the Crimea.
We suspect that Austria-Hungary will not necessarily emerge victorious. "It was Bismarck who spoke.
"To win or not to win doesn't have much to do with us in France. Crimea has already been sold, and it has nothing to do with us in France. Mula looked at Bismarck.
The last time there was a war, the two sides fought each other in the dark, and now they sit together and drink, and that's fucking politics.
There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
"Forget it, don't beat around the bush. I didn't come all the way to talk nonsense. Your Majesty, what do you want? Napoleon put down his glass and looked straight at Frederick.
"The thing is very simple, this war is supported by the Ming Empire behind it. We, Prussia, want to let the Ming fail, after all, Europa is the Europa of the Europeans, not their Ming.
Those yellow-skinned guys are scheming us behind our backs all day long. In this war against Russia, we are the ones who contributed the money and the dead.
But the result? The Ming Dynasty made a large windfall just by issuing war bonds.
Our finances have not been able to slow down for 10 years.
Thirty percent of the taxes were to be used to pay interest on war bonds.
The Ming are pumping our blood, yours! And mine.
This situation cannot be allowed to continue, and let the Hebrews teach the Ming people a good lesson. Europe, not everything can be done for them to interfere with. Frederick put down his glass.
"What are you going to do?" Napoleon reopened his glass.
"I want to sell weapons to the Hebrews, all the weapons we have. We want to help the Hebrews win this war and squeeze the Ming out of Europe.
The British are wilted now, and they only know how to live on an isolated island.
On the continent of Europa, there are only two powerful countries. Only the two of us can unite to expel the Ming from Europe, and we can't let them draw our blood. Frederick said indignantly.
This time, the distribution of the war against Russia was completely dominated by the Ming Dynasty.
Frederick felt humiliated, and he even regretted starting the war. sacrificed the lives of thousands of Prussians, but made a wedding dress for the Ming Empire.
"Squeeze out the power of the Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid it can't be done now. At least, the French Navy, together with your Prussian Navy, could not be an opponent of the Ming Navy.
And how do you know that the Ming will not launch a military strike against Israel?
You know, Crete is not too far from the Black Sea. And the Ottoman Empire is also a dog of the Ming Dynasty. Napoleon's words were full of helplessness.
Half of the strength of the Ming Dynasty is reflected in the strength of the navy. Not to mention Prussia and France, even if the whole of Europe formed a combined fleet.
The tonnage is only half of the Ming fleet, and the three Shanzi-class battleships alone are contemptuous of the existence of the entire European maritime power.
"Daming's current scientific and technological development is nothing more than relying on them to master electricity. Now, too, we can master electricity. Seeing that Napoleon was not on the road, Frederick made a trump card.
"What do you mean?"
"We've been in contact with Rothschild, and the team he's supporting has cracked the secrets of electricity.
He could build a power plant in Prussia, and the telegraph was about to enter the practical stage.
As for weapons, Rothschild could convince the British. He can give us the results of India's research, including ironclad ship technology and airship technology.
There was only one condition, and that was that France and Prussia must support Israel in winning the war.
Our vision is to form a European Union.
France and Prussia, taking turns as presidency, handle day-to-day affairs. As for the big things, it's up to both of us to make them.
Only by uniting Europe as one can we confront the Ming Dynasty.
Our Emperor His Majesty just said that the Ming Empire is pumping our blood.
The annual trade deficit is astronomical, but the Ming Dynasty always provokes wars in Europe. Let European countries not have time to increase their national strength.
They can only be reduced to the sales place of Daming industrial products and the supplier of raw materials.
If it goes on like this, it will only take a few decades. The wealth of Europe will be drained by the Ming Dynasty, and Europe will be a poor and backward Europe at that time.
A plate of loose sand, can only be Daming fish meat of Europe.
Our son can only go to work as a coolie for Daming in the future. Or tap the resources of your own country for the use of the Ming Dynasty.
Our daughters will become prostitutes. Run to the distant Ming Dynasty and endure the ravages of the Ming people.
Our country will always be at the bottom of the food chain. Daming eats the leftovers before it is our turn to take a bite.
Your Majesty the Emperor Napoleon, do you want your children and grandchildren to live like this forever?
Let's join forces!
Drive the Ming forces out of Europe, so that our children and grandchildren will no longer be enslaved by the Ming Dynasty. ”
Bismarck held out his hand as he spoke, and Frederick held out his hand as well.
Napoleon also held out his hand, and finally Mula.
Four of Europe's most powerful men, hand in hand.
