Li Xiao was right, Napoleon really didn't want to fight anymore.

He discovered that starting this war was completely wrong.

It was the wrong war at the wrong time, in the wrong place.

Reflecting on this false start, Napoleon placed the blame on the astonishing idiocy of French intelligence.

Before the war, Napoleon only knew that the Ming army was very powerful and was known as the victorious army.

I also know that Daming will have some new weapons!

But Napoleon did not expect that the Ming army had become so powerful.

Invulnerable tanks, planes that dominate the sky.

There are amazingly accurate howitzers and all kinds of murderous weapons.

Especially that kind of napalm bomb, when thrown into a trench, can completely turn a stretch of trench dozens of meters long into a sea of ​​flames.

All coalition soldiers in the sea of ​​​​fire will be burned to charcoal, and those who are closer will be directly roasted.

Napoleon had seen the position after the Ming army left, and it was really terrible.

He felt that he really felt sorry for those soldiers who were roasted on the outside and tender on the inside.

The epoch-making significance of tanks is not that they are invulnerable and can withstand machine guns and artillery fire.

But after this thing appeared, Napoleon discovered that the coalition forces had completely lost the initiative in the war.

Where and how the battle is fought depends entirely on the Ming army.

The coalition forces can only defend passively, position by position.

However, if the Ming army cannot conquer this position, it will immediately turn around.

Quickly move to the weak point of the defense line, and then rely on the abundant firepower of the tank and the strong armor to directly tear open the weak point of the defense line.

no way!

People's mobility is so fast, the French army relied on two legs and mules and horses.

The Ming army relied on crawler tracks, which were the big wheels of tractors.

There is no comparison between the two!

French soldiers carrying all their equipment and marching for thirty kilometers in a hurry would be exhausted and covered in sweat.

The Ming army sat on tanks, eating cans and singing songs as they marched forward.

Not to mention 30 kilometers, even 300 kilometers will not make you exhausted.

As a military god, Napoleon knew that continuing the war would have little meaning other than the loss of human lives.

However, Napoleon was still hesitant to end the war.

As the French Emperor and Li Xiao's former ally, he knew the character of the Ming Marshal very well.

Killing them all, and even making you unable to survive or die is his style.

If he surrenders now, Li Xiao will definitely let the French attack the Prussians.

Then……!

Then Li Xiao will unite everyone to kill the French first, and then the Prussians who are seriously injured.

Finally, get rid of those European fish bellies with low combat effectiveness.

He could even imagine that few of the more than one million French expeditionary force would be able to return to France alive.

The history teacher hired at a high price once told Napoleon about the battles of the ancient Ming Dynasty.

A general won the battle and captured 450,000 enemies.

He did not choose to let go of these enemies, but chose to kill all 450,000 enemies...

It is said that only more than 200 child soldiers were left behind to send messages back.

This is so cruel. In modern times, this kind of thing would be criticized verbally and in writing.

But..., the Marshal of the Ming Dynasty opposite will definitely do this.

It's just that he will do it more secretly.

More than one million people were brought back to the Ming Dynasty to find some coal mines or other mines.

After three to five years, there will be no more than 200,000 people guaranteed or alive.

In ten years at most, these one million people will be chewed to pieces by the Ming Dynasty, even their skins and bones.

Napoleon knew Li Xiao very well. This is what he did in India.

Countless young Indians were sent into the mines by him, and eventually they became bones in mass graves.

Those who were particularly loyal to the Ming Dynasty were recruited into the army and fought bravely with Arabs, Kurds, and Persians in the Middle East.

Ming Dynasty usually uses these people as cannon fodder. If they die, they die.

Those who survive will become die-hard fans of Ming Dynasty when they return to India and will receive various benefits.

Even the entire family will become prosperous quickly because of his bravery.

In this way, the Indians are very willing to send their sons who have worked hard to raise them to be cannon fodder in the Ming army.

This resulted in Ming Dynasty having a steady stream of cannon fodder sent to the front line.

But for some unknown reason, Ming Dynasty did not use these people in large numbers.

If it were Napoleon, he would organize a million-strong Indian army and come to Russia to fight.

I don’t know that the Ming army’s troops in Russia are currently stretched thin!

If there were enough troops, Kiev might have fallen by now.

Just when Napoleon was at his wits' end, Moltke, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Front, was busy suffering like an ant on a hot pot.

The Ming Dynasty's attack was so sharp that the 209th Infantry Division only lasted one day and two nights before collapsing.

More than 60% of the entire division was killed, and it was completely impossible for the remaining troops to hold the current position.

The remaining three divisions are also scarred and have lost more than 30% of their personnel.

If it were not for the defensive change period, Vyazma might have fallen.

"Bayer and the others must be rescued!"

Moltke only stared at Vyazma, which was the forefront of the entire northern coalition.

A little over a hundred kilometers from Smolensk!

This is also the forward base for the coalition's spring offensive.

The railway from Smolensk to the Vyazma region will be completed within a month.

But the Ming army's sudden attack destroyed everything.

More than one hundred kilometers, for the coalition soldiers in the Vyazma encirclement, is the distance between life and death.

"The Ming army's offensive was very fierce. In just one morning, they lost more than 2,000 people.

Their artillery shells were raining down, and the biggest casualties came from the tanks.

We simply don't have enough weapons to fight against the Ming army's tanks.

Many soldiers held explosive bags and rushed towards the Ming army's tanks.

But with this kind of attack, it would be good if half of the ten attempts were successful.

Now, the frontline urgently needs weapons to deal with enemy tanks."

The speaker was Feng. Commander of the 107th Division of the Prussian Wehrmacht.

General Rundstedt.

Last night, he escaped from Vyazma in an airship under darkness and delivered the first message to the command post in Smolensk.

"What we have now, apart from landmines, is only 88 artillery pieces."

Moltke was also helpless. There were no other weapons in the imperial arsenal that could be used to fight tanks.

"Then give it to us, the more the better. We have more than 40,000 living brothers trapped there.

I want to save them, not just sit here doing nothing like you."

Feng.

Rundstedt was quite senior, and only a teacher like him would dare to talk to Moltke like this.

"Okay, I'll give it all to you. I'll give you everything in stock, but the 88 cannon weighs two tons, and the airship can't carry much.

Moreover, if the Eight-Eight Cannons had taken care of things, you wouldn’t have suffered heavy casualties.”

Mao Qi sighed helplessly.

The Ming Dynasty's tanks can move around, but the Prussian 88-gun can only be deployed in one place.
