Their battle with the Holy Crusaders has turned into a war of attrition.
However, the supply line of the Holy Crusaders has been cut off by the cavalry squad of the Dragon Flame Army. This war of attrition is fought very hard by the Holy Crusaders.
But Ling Chen's Long Yan Army gradually reversed the situation in the face of adversity.
Except for military industrial facilities and weapons and equipment, Longyan Army has not been replenished, and other aspects have been replenished accordingly.
At least they get the supplementary items they should have in terms of food and fodder.
Ling Chen attempted to trap these Holy Crusaders in the city of Hanover.
However, as Europe enters a truce period, counterparts in all aspects have relaxed.
With the addition of Italy's participation in the war, although Ling Chen was able to block the supply line of the Holy Crusaders, there was no way to prevent everyone from going to Hanover to do business.
The Holy Crusaders are entrenched at the pass into Hanover, and many merchants need to pass through here.
This war of attrition is self-defeating given the economic situation.
There are many businessmen who help the Holy Crusaders through doing business.
In the Longyan military camp.
The chief of staff said anxiously: "General, if this continues, our battle with the Holy Crusaders will become endless. This is completely unacceptable to us."
"A protracted war is not beneficial to us. The Holy Crusaders will use a small force to contain us."
Ling Chen looked at the map and saw that the chief of staff was right.
They should do something to reverse the current decline on the battlefield.
The whole of Europe was in a truce period and vigorously developed its economy, and Hanover was no exception.
Prussia and Hanover now need this period of time to recuperate, and the Longyan Army needs this period of time to prepare its strength.
Although the current Longyan Army has been replenished with food and grass, it is still lacking in armaments, and those Prussian armaments factories must be operational.
Only in this way can their Longyan Army be replenished with military equipment, and the following battle can continue.
Ling Chen said in a deep voice: "Master Liu Zheng has occupied Saxony, and our situation should improve soon."
"The Holy Crusaders will give us this time, will we wait until then?" the chief of staff said, looking at Ling Chen.
"Tingshou Yi Country also participated in the war, and they also reinforced the Holy Crusaders."
"The entire Habsburg-controlled country waged war against us and Prussia."
"Although this is a time of peace, it may not last long. General, we must regain control of Hanover."
"In this way, we can stabilize the development in the rear."
Ling Chen was not unaware of this, he said: "We can no longer let the enemy lead us by the nose."
"Send me an order to arrange for merchants to enter the Holy Crusaders' camp to do business."
The chief of staff was stunned. He didn't quite understand what Ling Chen meant. Why did he want their people to go to the Holy Crusaders' base to do business?
Ling Chen added: "Since the Holy Crusaders themselves have opened the door for businessmen to enter, we will do it as a favor."
"Arrange our troops to go in, do you understand what I mean, Chief of Staff?"
Ling Chen glanced at the chief of staff.
The chief of staff immediately understood that Ling Chen took advantage of the opportunity for the Holy Crusaders to replenish supplies and inserted the Longyan troops to destroy the Holy Crusaders from within.
What a wonderful move!
"I understand General, I will arrange the manpower now."
