The tent was quiet, the candles on both sides of the big red bed carved by the double-headed eagle gave off a soft light, and under a snow-white silk quilt, Penevis snuggled up in my arms, her beautiful eyes slightly closed, her snort was faint, and at this moment, exhausted, she had fallen asleep......

The tip of my nose was full of the warm scent of each other, and seeing that Penevis slept soundly, I also lay down for a while.

It didn't take long for the day to dawn, and seeing that there was a military meeting later, I had to try to pull myself out of Penevis's arms.

As I pulled out my arm, Penevis let out a groan in her throat, opened her eyes involuntarily, and then stood up delicately, sleepily asking, "Where are you going?"

"Ready for a meeting. ”

"So early?"

"I'll be back soon, why, can't leave me so soon, reluctant to let me leave half a step?"

"Oh yes!" Penavis exclaimed, her face suddenly had a delicate flush, and then she grabbed the spring light that was blocked by the thin quilt around her, and then the literary girl couldn't help but glance down, her face was slightly red, and she found that Penevis had a curious glow in her eyes, and I also looked down.

"Was this thing that big all the time last night?"

I have a black line in my head, and the unscrupulous bridge in the adult joke actually bumped into me?

"I see David like there, David is very small. ”

The black line on the door of my head is thicker.

That stone carving thing can compare to me!

"Can you do a sketch for me if you have time? ”

I almost spurted blood, but I didn't realize that Penevis still had the potential to become Guanxi's brother. I actually like to leave pictures afterwards, if she had a camera, wouldn't it be a click everywhere.

"Sketch or something. I have a better idea. ”

Whispering my evil thoughts in Pennivis's ear, she immediately shook her head in shame: "Don't, don't!

"Last night, you didn't want to scream too, but you didn't want it later?" I teased.

"You're cheating, I'm angry. Uhhh

Originally, it was still a slapstick and coquettish, but Penevis moved a little bigger. As a result, she frowned all at once.

"It's a little painful. ”

Nonsense, you rub your finger back and forth on your skin hundreds of times and you'll feel hot, let alone underneath.

"Rest well. I'll be back with you later. ”

Helping Penevis lie down, she reached out and grabbed me: "I want to take a shower." ”

"It's good. ”

I found some water to wipe myself clean, dressed myself, put on my mask, and went out of the tent to ask Leon to bring hot water to my room. Leon looked inside the tent and said, "Prince." Would it have a bad effect on your reputation if you brought a woman to the barracks?"

"Well, I brought a woman to the barracks as a cover, after all, I don't know that Miss Pennivis is inside my tent, and I didn't have the habit of bringing women with me in the barracks before, and secondly, I'm just a prince, not an emperor. Why do you want such a good reputation?"

The military meeting began, and the generals in charge of detection and garrison that night reported on the mission I had assigned to them.

The French, who had always been accustomed to going straight, did not notice my actions for a while. Thinking that I was going to force my way across the Danube, they devoted all their energies to the very likely Battle of Budapest, trying to defeat us on the banks of the Budapest River, without paying much attention to this riverside town, which was nearly a hundred miles away from the French army.

In fact, if the French army really paid attention to this, it would be a ghost, this place is so far away from them, and it is not a strategic place, no matter how wise and powerful the Duke of Vendôme is, it is impossible to conclude that I am going to move here out of thin air, besides, the generals of this era, especially the generals of Western Europe, are not accustomed to fighting with such a macro view of the overall situation. After all, a country in Western Europe is only the size of a palm, but there are only three or four cities plus a dozen villages, and the largest France and Austria are only the size of the middle provinces of the Celestial Empire, and many generals can't be macro even if they want to.

Now that we have landed safely, the next step is to recall a third of the chasseurs, consolidate the camp and stronghold, and set up a supply line around our current camp.

The cavalry came and went, but it took only a day, and after a day, the French suddenly found that we were a hundred miles away from them, and they were at a loss for a while.

Well, the French army knows what to do to be ghostly, we are a hundred miles away, it doesn't look like we're going to break the siege, and it's not like we're going to blockade them, probably for them to have to wait, wait for us to make the next move before we can react. However, the Duke of Vendôme had only sent a few cavalry of varying sizes and numbers to investigate the situation.

Faced with the idea that the French would move south to fight us, I don't think they would rush down to fight us. They want to encircle Budapest and destroy our support army, so to speak, their purpose is very clear, and it is only in their interest that we go north.

The French then tried to threaten the territory to the east, in a vain attempt to force us north to wage a decisive battle with the imperial cities on the east bank of the Danube. If it were February-April, I would have been afraid that the East Bank defense line would not be strong enough, but now, I am not afraid, the Danube flooding season has arrived.

The French had to build bridges and find boats to cross the river, but I placed more than 2,000 cuirassiers and nearly 3,000 chasseurs on the east bank, and the French, who were only tempted to attack, would be driven down as soon as they landed.

Within a few days, the rising water level blocked the passage of the French army to the east, and although the water level would inevitably drop a little in December, by that time we had roughly replenished the local garrison, and it was even more difficult for the French army to cross the river at that time.

At this time, I also began to divide the troops, and began to set up a reasonable defense line for the erected supply line, two partial divisions, each with 10,000 people, and then the main force led 60,000 people to stay in place, 1,200 cavalry as a warning force, with the local militia to patrol, cuirassiers do not wear cuirassiers, when used by mobile troops, although their horses are all for short and fast sprints, but the kind of sprint horses that are exhausted after a short sprint are destined not to be used in the army, after all, the horses of the cuirassiers attach importance to the impact ability, and also consider the factor of durability。

Am I not afraid that the Duke of Vendôme will go south?

In fact, the situation of the Duke of Vendôme was not much better than mine, not to mention the part of the division that defended the Prussians, from Vienna to Budapest, such a large territory, he had to protect the supply lines, and he had to place the division to protect the flanks, and the main force under the city of Budapest was about seventy or eighty thousand.

We are half a catty and eight taels, and no one is afraid of anyone.

The French, who had no plan, resorted to another plan, shelling Budapest day and night, as if they were preparing to attack Budapest.

Some of the generals in the barracks panicked for a while, fearing that the long-term pressure of the French on Budapest would cause Budapest to fall.

I'm not too worried about the short-term fall of Budapest.

I've seen records of the French army's marches, and all the fortress strongholds before Budapest fell so quickly, and some held out for so long.

The reason is that under the circumstances at that time, any general with a normal head knew that it was the best strategy to shrink the forces of other cities and fortresses, and prepare to hold on to Budapest, but not every soldier was a general, and then many middle-level generals of the empire who broke out of the Roman soul refused to withdraw to Budapest, they let most of them withdraw to Budapest, and they led a small number of troops to choose to stick to the strongholds and cities.

A bunch of stupid fools who don't know where to start, but who are the ones who bought time for more food and ammunition supplies to be brought in from Budapest.

In Budapest today, since there are soldiers and food, it is not a problem to hold out for four or five months.

In four or five months, not less, I will be able to drive the French out of the country. (To be continued......)
