"Damn the Germans!" Napoleon was so angry that he swept everything on the table to the ground when he saw the constant reports of war from the front.

It was a naked betrayal, and Napoleon felt that he was being played by the Germans.

For two years, the Germans hesitated on the battlefield. Preserve the vitality to the greatest extent!

But in the past two years, the French have fought with the Ming people to the last drop of blood in several battles.

More than 60 percent of the Ming casualties on the battlefield in Russia came from the French army.

While inflicting heavy losses on the Ming Dynasty, the French, who were backward in equipment and tactics, also had to swallow the bitter fruit of a large number of casualties.

Well, now the recharged Germans are coming. They attacked the French border cities with impunity, and even the troops that crossed through Austria and withdrew to the French mainland were attacked by the Germans.

In Austria, a foreign country and close to the Germans, these French soldiers had a hard time.

They were forced to step off the train and not cross the Alps. Without provisions, crossing the Alps in winter is very dangerous.

Napoleon knew, but he couldn't do it.

Because, the French could no longer muster an army to meet them.

But these French still insisted on fighting, grabbing when they didn't have a few things, and guns when they ran out of ammunition.

Even, if there is no means of transportation, you have to grab it.

Wherever they went, they collected all the horses and mules they could find. The cattle were also slaughtered by them and used as military rations.

The Austrians were already close to the Germans, and many even had relatives living in Bavaria.

Now the French did this, which soon angered the resistance of the Austrians. But Austria is now too weak to be able to expel these damned French.

Emperor Joseph sent an envoy to sue for peace with the Ming Dynasty. Willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, he only asked the Ming army to enter Vienna as soon as possible to help the Austrians defeat the French army that had done many evils.

Once again, it turns out that there is no such thing as ethics in the eyes of politicians. In their eyes, it's all about profit.

Let them do whatever they want, as long as the interests allow.

Even if you compromise with your former enemies, you have to take out Sunset's allies.

Without making them wait long, Li Xiao agreed to Joseph's request to surrender. Then, eight divisions of German troops, marched into Austria.

This time, the French army did not want to cross the Alps. Without ammunition and food, how could a bandit-like army outcompete the Germans with the support of the locals.

Li Xiao didn't move, because he knew that now was not the time.

On September 29, the commander of the Riga garrison, Immer, announced the formal surrender of the Riga garrison to the Ming Empire.

And it is specifically noted that it is a surrender to the Ming Empire.

Half an hour after the surrender was announced, the Swedish soldiers in the city organized a riot.

As a result, the riot was ruthlessly suppressed by the Danish army.

And soon, Denmark also sent a telegram to Daming. He said that he would negotiate peace with the Ming Dynasty to end the two-year-long war.

The Swedish army was crushed by the Danish army, and all walks of life in Sweden were furious, and the Swedish king vowed to fight the Danes to the end.

Helplessly, the main Swedish force in the expeditionary force has been annihilated by the Ming people. The rest were killed by the Danes.

There are basically not many troops available in Sweden right now!

In the absence of any choice, although the Swedish king shouted fiercely, he still secretly sent an envoy to the Ming to ask for peace talks.

The Riga defenders surrendered, and the Norwegian troops stationed in Smolensk had no need to hold on.

Only two days later, the Norwegian defenders in Smolensk also surrendered.

Since then, the hidden dangers of the Nordic coalition have completely disappeared.

Russian troops reopened to their homeland, and they recaptured the Belarusian capital Minsk.

Then they occupied Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia.

After this war, Russia not only won back the territory lost in the previous wars. It's even expanded quite a bit!

The Russians can finally raise their eyebrows!

Moscow sent numerous receivers with Russian troops to the three Baltic states and Belarus.

It's okay in Belarus, after all, it's the homeland of the Slavs, and they're quite convergent.

But it's not the same in Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia.

The Russian army is corrupted here, and the soldiers dare to tease women wantonly on the street.

The receiving officers are even more greedy and can be greedy and can be occupied. The good things in these places, as long as you find them, you will snatch them.

Then pack up and send it back to Russia!

The locals dare not speak out, there is no way, who let themselves be defeated.

At this moment, the Ming army seemed unusually quiet.

All armored units have entered a period of recuperation, and the attendance rate of the air force units has been greatly reduced.

Except for some urgent tasks, basically it is not necessary to go without moving.

In the golden autumn of October, the streets and alleys of Russia are full of Ming soldiers on leave.

Almost every Ming soldier has a blonde girl next to him.

When a group of Ming soldiers walked down the street, there would be a group of blonde girls.

I thought that the indiscriminate issuance of currency, the ruble has depreciated into the depreciation.

The copper and silver dollars of the Ming Dynasty became absolute hard currency.

It may seem that the only way Russians earn copper and silver dollars is good food and wine, as well as women's breasts and buttocks.

"Marshal, shouldn't we advance to Eastern Europe?

Russia is still expanding westward, and they have already acquired a lot of Polish territory.

And on the German side, Warsaw doesn't seem to be able to hold out for long. ”

Stilwell was very worried about the current situation, the war was not over, but the Ming army had signs of swords and guns entering Kuma and putting them in Nanshan.

The officers and men at the grassroots level in the army are also thinking about their combat exploits and what kind of work they will be assigned when they return to China.

There have been many cases of the army selling seized materials, but there is still no sign of extinguishing it.

Stilwell was worried that if this continued, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army would be over.

What is there to talk about hitting Western Europe, and what is talking about controlling Europe.

"To adapt to the current situation, we will have troops in Europe in the future. This situation will become the norm, and we will have to adapt to it.

It's good to be in Russia now, and in the future we will have troops in Germany and in France.

Even Britain, there may be a garrison of ours.

Not to mention the place of Gibraltar, the territory of what it was going to become.

Since you want to adapt, start now.

Besides, what are we going to do in Eastern Europe? The Germans successfully took Warsaw, although it was already in ruins.

The Russians occupied the eastern half of Poland, and the Germans occupied the western half.

The Germans were now strong and had the ambition to defeat France and unify Europe.

If we move at this time, it will make the Germans uneasy. ”

"But King Joseph of Austria has already asked us to garrison Vienna several times.

If you look at the map, Vienna has a good location, which can be called the heart of Europe.

I feel that it is necessary for us to occupy Vienna. ”

"That's fine, pick a strong force to occupy Vienna. Swear by our presence in Central Europe as well!

Moreover, Vienna also has to build an airport. In the future, part of our air force will be stationed in Vienna.

You find a suitable force to go! ”

"Why don't you send Master Man? The 1st Cavalry Division made outstanding achievements in this war! ”

"Man Ye and Ao Ye can't do it, they have another mission.

Besides, they are armored troops, and they are not suitable for stationing in or around the city.

Let's find an infantry division, I think the Ninth Division is good. Let the Ninth Division go to Vienna to garrison!

Such a traditional excellent team needs to be preserved, you first find someone to draw up a charter, and see how those troops performed in this war.

As appropriate, some temporary editors will be turned into integrators. Those temporary numbers have also become permanent numbers.

These numbers represent the blood and lives of many people. Once it is canceled, it will break the hearts of the fighters. ”

"No! I'll send someone to do this. ”

"On the French and Germans' side, let's not help. Just watch from the rear!

The Germans are now strong, and the French are a tired division. Although it had the advantage of fighting on its own, the German mainland was not far from the battlefield.

Moreover, Germany's industrial development in recent years also seems to be much stronger than that of France.

If nothing else, the technology of coal-to-oil is very good. If we don't have oil supply, this technology is also suitable for us. ”

"The Germans have good industrial technology, and now a lot of things are being done.

A few German airships were captured the other day, and our engineers were amazed at some of the small changes in them, saying that they were very effective.

And also!

We found that the Germans made parts with very, very tight tolerances. Even in some places, the tolerance is already smaller than our Ming.

This shows that their lathe technology has come a long way. ”

"Germans are a strict people, and as long as there is a model, they will develop quickly.

And this is still a time of war, if it is a time of peace, they use all their energy in manufacturing, then their development will be faster.

But don't worry, Germany will be divided into many pieces.

They were originally many pieces, but Frederick Prussia forcibly integrated them into one.

It's still a short time, and we have the ability to take them apart again. Of course, we will have to wait for the Germans to help us get rid of Napoleon, and then we will stab Germany.

After the Ninth Division took over Austria, it must first conduct an investigation and site selection, and as soon as the spring of next year begins, it is necessary to start the construction of the airport immediately.

Strive to build an airport within half a year or a year.

I think an emaciated camel is bigger than an emaciated horse. The French should be able to hold out for a year, if not longer.

In the process, I believe that Napoleon was also able to drain the strength of the Germans. ”

Li Xiao habitually stood up and walked to the front of the map.

In fact, on the map, the difference between France and Germany is not too much.

But now the German zone of control was very large, especially the newly occupied Polish territory, and the troops that penetrated deep into France.

It was only now that Alsace and Lorraine were occupied, which had been occupied by Prussia during the Franco-Prussian War.

In the last European war, it was recaptured by the French.

Now, once again, it is in the hands of the Germans. In just ten or twenty years, it is really turbulent and feng shui takes turns.

Alsace and Lorraine are two places that are really battleground.

Let the two vicious dogs pinch until they run out of oil and die on France.

Li Xiao was not afraid that the Germans would not be fooled, because defeating the French was the dream of many generations of Germans.

For the sake of this dream, they were willing to relax their nerves that were originally vigilant.

Single-mindedly deal with their old enemy Napoleon, and strive to get Napoleon down as soon as possible and capture the paradise Paris in the hearts of the Germans.

"Sir, I'm worried that the French won't last long.

You see, the southern coast of France has now been bombed into ruins. The port of Marseille, in particular, now has no factories.

You know, almost all of the factories we helped build in France were built in Marseille.

Zuo Liangyu and the navy agreed to postpone the operation against Grenada for half a month.

The official date for the start of the war was set for 10 October.

Because the tides at that time were good and it was possible to smoothly send our troops to the beachhead.

I mean, if we manage to capture Granada, there's a support point in Spain. The next step is to target Gibraltar.

As long as Gibraltar is taken, the west coast of France will be finished. We will deal with the factories on the west coast of France the same way we did with Marseille.

At that time, I am afraid that there will be no factories left in France.

Having lost the industrial base, and domestic difficulties, I suspect that the French will probably surrender at the end of this year, or at the beginning of next year.

Holding out until the middle of next year is already the limit of the French. Most likely, they won't last that long. ”

Stilwell said, pointing to France on the map.

"Oh, that's not going to work! We have to give the French some hope, let them know that we won't take Gibraltar so easily, and let them hold on a little longer.

If the French are not good, let them involve the British as much as possible.

Now that the Battle of Granada has been formulated, let's do it according to the plan, after all, the tides don't always have the right time.

But attacking Gibraltar from Granada will require us to delay a few more days and make the British feel that I don't have enough strength to take Gibraltar.

Also, after our lads are on vacation. You can march to Austria one after another!

Note that you can't move too many troops at once. so as not to make the Germans suspicious and influence their military action against France.

We only want the French to drag it out, and we don't want the French to beat the Germans. ”

"No! The subordinates understood, we will move the troops little by little.

And not only the troops, but also the construction of a railway line from Constantinople to Vienna. Ensure the logistical supply of our army! ”
