Chapter 9 Opportunity

Looking at the silver-armored knight who rode away, Zhang Ang and his party felt very speechless. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

What the hell is this here for? After a couple of mocking sentences, he just left? Can you be a more professional villain?

But Adolf looked at the knight's back thoughtfully, and was silent for a while before he said, "Although it is rare to see such a precious character now, he must have mercy on us." ”

"What do you mean?" said Zhang Ang, puzzled.

"Now we are facing off with France on both sides of the Rhine, and most of the bridges on the river have been destroyed, except for a few martial arts masters who can easily cross the river, ordinary soldiers must force the river to cross! Adolf elaborated: "To break through their blockade is nothing more than to fill in human lives and consume their arrows and stones. ”

He pointed to the ragged teams around him who were walking against the edge of the road, and continued: "At this time, we need to fill in the cannon fodder. The knight probably couldn't bear to see us die in vain, so he came to persuade us. It's hard to say, but that's mercy. ”

"That's it......" Looking at the silver-armored knight who continued to "show off his might" in front of another team of cannon fodder, Zhang Ang's gaze also became complicated.

Yes, like Zhang Ang's team, although the equipment is in tatters, the strength of each member is not weak, even against the city defense army of the same strength, they can easily defeat it. With the words of Zhang Ang and Adolf, even the elite of the main army of the empire can fight.

But the other "cannon fodder" teams are not like this, they are also poorly equipped, but they are also poorly equipped, and their strength, except for the few who are barely considered samurai, the others are all malnourished, emaciated, even if they are just carrying weapons and hurrying, they are tired and panting, presumably they are just serfs who were forced to put down their hoes. Such a team, on the battlefield, against the experienced and well-trained French Revolutionary Army, it is no different from an egg hitting a stone.

In the face of such a weak cannon fodder team, the "persuasion" of the silver-armored knight was equally useless, and the team of cannon fodder looked numb in the face of his insults, as if they hadn't heard anything, but just followed the lead, still along the road, towards the south.

After hitting the wall a few times, the silver-armored knight had no choice but to answer in his own team and no longer came out.

"Alas, what is the use of such persuasion? These are just serfs, the property of the noble lords, the poor people who are exploited and oppressed by them all day long. The aristocratic lord was unwilling to take risks in person, so he sent them out, where was he who scolded and threatened to return after two sentences. Adolf sighed and sighed.

"Then why don't these nobles come by themselves? What's the use of sending these cannon fodder? They don't want to make a contribution and go further?" Zhang Ang was puzzled.

For the indifference of the German aristocracy, Zhang Ang felt very puzzled, in France, there are also many large and small nobles, but whenever the war comes, most of them will reorganize their troops and horses, rush to the battlefield to participate in the war, whether it is the invasion of England or the civil war later, they all retain great enthusiasm and fight the battlefield. After the establishment of the new dynasty, it made further progress in its original status, and even soared into the sky.

But Germany is different, there are very few elite troops of the nobility who rushed to the battlefield here, but there are a lot of cannon fodder troops composed of serfs, and most of those elite troops are also under the hands of the big nobles, and the cannon fodder army is mostly small and medium-sized nobles, as if the small and medium-sized nobles who occupy the mainstream are very optimistic about this war, and are just forced by the mobilization order to send troops at will to perfunctory government orders.

"Because they are rotten!" said Adolf solemnly, "they are no longer the Junker nobles who were proud of their military exploits!"

He explained in detail: "Although we in Germany have been fighting foreign wars all year round, our own country has rarely suffered from wars, and most of them are nothing more than some chaotic parties. Moreover, after so many years of peace in the country, these nobles have also multiplied for several generations, and the older generation who made contributions to earn family property for their children and grandchildren are almost dead. And how many of those noble sons are still willing to practice diligently and hard every day? They have vast fields, flocks of slaves, and towering manors, and they can live their whole lives with fine clothes and fine food, and they will eat and die. Even the lowest-ranking lord family can live a dashing life with their land. And in their own territory, they often have huge rights to condemn life and death at will. With all this power and wealth, why should they risk their lives to go to the battlefield to fight for their lives and die?"

After a pause, he said: "And you have also seen that like the manor that we captured, that Viscount Anthony, who was fat and difficult to walk, and any ordinary person could kill him? They didn't even want to go to war! They just wanted to be silverfish like this, and they would decay for the rest of their lives, from generation to generation, and even for thousands of generations!"

Zhang Ang nodded, and then asked, "Okay, I probably understand." However, the mobilization order did not say that it was necessary to send troops, and it was okay to provide food and money to support it? Why do you still send these serfs out?"

Adolf laughed: "Because serfs are cheap." What is the difference between these silverfish asking for their money and killing them? Food and supplies can also be exchanged for money. And serfs are different, they are very easy to obtain, and in every year of great calamity, as long as they collect the displaced people, they will be there immediately, and there are also refugees from other countries, captured prisoners, there are many channels, and they don't cost much money. And serfs can still give birth to small serfs, these gang are dead, let them live again. For them, serfs are just a kind of livestock that can be regenerated. ”

"That's it......" Zhang Ang looked at the team of serfs who were weak and insensitive, and fell into deep thought again.

In this way, the class solidification in Germany is very serious, and the class contradictions are also very fierce. In this way, the core programme of our National Socialist Party of Germany can be slightly changed. In this entire decaying country, the number of nobles is a minority after all. And those who, like these serfs, are oppressed and exploited, but the majority!

It just needs to be given enough strength, enough support, enough faith...... You can make the flames burn!

This war is a good opportunity!

It's just that it's good or bad to release this ghost so early?
