Everyone is afraid that making noise will affect the commander's thinking.

This is something related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty!

"Afraid? Afraid of losing the battle?" Li Xiao looked at Shi Dewei, then turned back and glanced at the staff officers inside during the entire battle.

Everyone looked at Li Xiao without saying a word!

"hehe!

The Ming Dynasty's foreign wars that I presided over have never failed.

Now that we have airplanes, cannons, and tanks, is it worse than the days when we only had flintlock guns?

In the short term, we see that we are indeed smaller in number than the enemy.

Moreover, our allied Russians are not a fighting race as they boast.

But what’s the result?

At the beginning of the war, we killed 450,000 Poles.

On the northern route, we lost a large area of ​​land from Minsk to Smolensk, but you have to know.

During the retreat, our army killed more than 80,000 enemy troops.

Now let’s talk about the southern route!

The southern front campaign centered on the Battle of Tsaritsyn. Our positions have been gradually retreating these days.

But in the positional battle, we killed and wounded 130,000 enemy troops.

Among them, the French, who have the strongest combat effectiveness, account for more than half.

The total casualties of our army were only a little over 30,000.

With such an exchange ratio, no matter how many people there are, how long can they last?

We are fighting a defensive war, and staying inside the fortifications has a natural advantage. If they want to capture Tsaritsyn, they will have to pay a huge price for every step forward.

Everyone!

What's more important is that although our homeland of Ming Dynasty is thousands of miles away.

But the train can go directly to here, and the distance to the Volga River is only 60 kilometers.

There are our cargo airships in the sky and trucks and tractors on the ground, delivering truckloads of supplies to the frontline soldiers.

What does the Christian Union rely on? British Sharma!

If all the shire horses from all over Britain are brought here, how many can there be?

Without sea transportation, it would be very difficult for them to protect so many troops.

This is why armies from various countries are taking turns attacking our positions.

Because their logistical supplies are seriously insufficient.

On the northern front, the Prussian army did not want to launch an attack in the cold winter.

They are waiting for spring. As long as spring comes, they will take advantage of the poor road conditions and the inability of our mechanized troops to launch an attack.

As for the French army on the southern front, their goal is Tsaritsyn. Moreover, they must capture Tsaritsyn in this cold winter.

There is a time difference here!

We can concentrate our efforts to defend Tsaritsyn and repel the French attack.

Then in the spring, concentrate on repelling the Prussian attack.

As long as their attack is repelled, the war can enter the confrontation stage.

If it really becomes a war of attrition, our Ming Dynasty's national strength advantage will be revealed.

Now the Ming Dynasty is constantly increasing its troops, but the total number of our Ming army is only 2.2 million.

And our Ming Dynasty has a population of 400 million, and the ratio of soldiers to civilians is 200 to one.

In other words, two hundred Ming people supported one Ming soldier.

Looking at the Christian Union countries, take France and Prussia as examples.

They are just a country with a population of tens of millions, but they have recruited an army of more than one million people.

The ratio of soldiers to civilians is dozens to one!

This is a large country with a large population in Europe. For countries with small populations, the ratio of soldiers to civilians is even more terrifying.

The men have gone to the front to fight, but what about the production in the rear? All rely on the elderly, women, and children?

Although Europe also has a population of more than 400 million, they are scattered, unlike our Ming Dynasty, which has a clenched fist.

Four hundred million versus four hundred million, we can afford it, but they can't.

Let me tell you another news: the navy has captured the Italian island of Sicily.

In two or three months, the Battle of Corsica will be launched.

Where is Corsica? It's Napoleon's hometown!

After occupying Corsica, our next goal is the European continent in southern France.

Once the second battlefield is opened in France, the French and Prussian armies will be forced to expand their troops to deal with it.

Their already dangerous ratio of soldiers to civilians will only become even more disparate.

Huge military spending will crush their economy.

In the end, the front line failed to win, and the people in their rear were already in dire straits.

At that time, even if we didn't attack, they wouldn't be able to continue fighting.

People who can't survive will attack their government, we just have to wait.

Dear gentlemen!

Having said all this, I want to tell you that we will have some difficulties in the short term.

But in the long run, victory must belong to Ming Dynasty and to all of you here.

Your descendants will enjoy the huge wealth of materials brought by the top of the world because of your fight today.

At that time, even if your descendants are beggars in the Ming Dynasty, foreign beauties will be willing to marry them.

Ming Dynasty will become the greatest country."

As soon as Li Xiao finished speaking, huge applause erupted in the command room.

Li Xiao's prestige in the army is unparalleled, and the commander-in-chief is no exaggeration.

He has never been defeated in a battle he led.

Moreover, what Li Xiao said was reasonable and reasonable.

The Ming Dynasty was a complete empire, and most of the 400 million people in the Ming Dynasty were Chinese Han people.

The European countries are doing their own thing. Although the population is 400 million, it is absolutely impossible to be on the same level as the Ming Dynasty.

"Commander, don't worry.

Our Ming army will definitely work together to win the battle of Tsaritsyn.

Long live the Ming Dynasty!

Long live the handsome man!"

Stewie took the lead in shouting long live, and others in the command room followed suit.

This is not the first time that a group of people shouted long live Li Xiao!

From the first panic, to the inexplicable excitement. Until now, Li Xiao has been as smooth as ever without any fluctuations.

Li Xiao knew that his speech had given the staff at the headquarters a shot in the arm.

And if the troops need a shot in the arm, they have to rely on a huge victory to stimulate them.

Li Xiao looked at the map and saw that there were no possibilities around Tsaritsin.

This place has been turned into a mess, and the enemy troops are all in lumps. It is impossible to be divided and surrounded.

My eyes began to look north along the battle line, and my eyes finally landed on a huge protrusion on the battle line.
Chapter completed!
