With Chief Yuan personally taking action, the next thing was very simple. After receiving domestic orders, a Chinese cruiser that was originally visiting Spain immediately set sail to visit Sweden. Of course, when sailing past the coast of France, it was loaded with
The ten tons of shackle shells on the ship were transferred to a French fishing boat, and the entire ten tons of gold used as payment for this batch of goods were also transferred to the cruiser. As for why this cruiser also brought the army's 150 mortar shells with it when it visited
There is no need to go into details about du gas bombs.
The entire transaction process was carried out very covertly, and it can be said that it was silent. Attendant Yuan specifically reminded or threatened Lu Ban about this. Once the news that China provided France with this new type of du gas bomb was known to the outside world, whether it was the Allies or the
France's allies know that China will stop supplying France with such weapons.
The French understand this very well. In fact, they are very clear by now that the peace-loving Emperor Yang is still very much looking forward to the continuation of the war in Europe. His purpose is probably not just to make a fortune, but also to bring blood to Europe and even the whole world.
After all, the winner in the end will definitely be the Chinese. Now that they have dominated the Pacific, they will have no problem continuing to dominate Asia. Their hearts are so vicious.
But even if they understand this, the French have no other choice. Until now, it can be said that France has lost the worst in this war. But under the same circumstances, the one who should continue this war is the one who should continue the war.
France, the reason is very simple. France has been beaten to pieces. Even if it wins the war in the end, it will lose the qualification to compete with Britain and Russia unless everyone is beaten to pieces together. In other words, what France needs now is to conquer the whole of Europe and even Russia.
The world is in ruins, and only in this way can France obtain the most favorable external environment after the war.
And if we admit defeat now and end this war, then France will be the biggest loser. Not only will it lose more than one-third of its land, this is for sure. Bismarck could spit out the occupied land to them, and only take it away in the end.
Alsace and Lorraine, but William will definitely not be so kind this time. It is estimated that the north of the Seine River will not be left to France.
With only the remaining two-thirds, France not only loses the qualification to compete in the world, but also has to be sandwiched between a powerful Germany and a Britain that has preserved its strength to the greatest extent. In the end, it can only be like a third-rate thing like Portugal.
Same. Becoming a vassal of Britain or Germany is absolutely intolerable to the proud French Republic.
Therefore, in this case, cooperating with Yang Feng's strategy is the most beneficial to France in every aspect. As for the casualties of continuing the war, this is not within the scope of French politicians' consideration. Besides, France's current strength can
It’s good to just protect yourself. How can you do anything else? Simply defending the Alps and the Marne River, with the help of new du gas bombs, you don’t need to pay too many casualties. As for the important task of winning the war, then
We have to leave it to the British and Russians.
After all, Emperor Yang was not the only one who resented the fact that the British suffered only one million casualties in this war. Of course, the little thoughts of these French people had nothing to do with Emperor Yang. He only needed to be his arms dealer.
.
After obtaining the first batch of shrine shells, the French immediately sent these treasures to the front line of the Isère River as quickly as possible. At this time, the Germans once again launched an attack on the Isère River defense line. Foch
Then he adopted a relatively bold tactic. He released the German army out of the Alc Valley, and then all French troops deployed on the west bank of the Isere River, leaving the empty plains on the east bank for the German army to gather more soldiers. Then he made a good move.
Give Germany the deepest memory.
His vicious plan was not noticed by the German commander at all. After the routine bombing by airships, the German troops rushing out from the Alc Valley immediately launched an attack on the French defense line. The French troops hiding on the west bank of the Isere River fought desperately
Blocking the block, the German attack failed. But then more and more German troops arrived, and the French army still held on to their positions. There were more and more German troops on the east coast, and the battle line became longer and longer, all the way to this narrow valley.
, after having gathered almost an army of German troops, and after determining that the wind direction was favorable, Foch fired all the shrine shells at the German army as quickly as possible.
What happened next couldn't be called a battle. It was simply a massacre, a real massacre. The nearly 50,000 German troops who were attacking on a nearly ten-kilometer-long front began to attack strangely in a very short period of time.
Piles and pieces fell on the way to the charge. The thick smoke on the battlefield covered up the unique fruity fragrance of the shackles, and among the explosions of various artillery shells around, no one noticed the explosion of the shalin shells. This
This colorless poison quickly spread on the battlefield without the Germans noticing. When the soldiers fell down in large numbers, foaming at the mouth and convulsing on the ground, the German commander realized that the French had once again
Using that mysterious aura.
But by this time, it was already too late.
Of the 50,000 attacking German troops, a total of 20,000 fell in just ten minutes. The horrific scene made even the French troops on the west bank of the Isere shudder. In this case, the German troops trapped in it were even more vulnerable.
They were so frightened that they collapsed. The original attack came to an abrupt end. The remaining 30,000 German troops stayed away from this hell like crazy. Even so, more than 10,000 of the German troops who fled back were left with permanent injuries.
disabled.
The terrifying aura of the French immediately shocked the world. No one thought that they would reverse the situation in the Alps in this way. In fact, all countries had almost determined that the French would no longer be in the Alps.
In the previous series of battles from the Susa Valley to Langle Castle and then to the Alc Valley, they suffered more than 100,000 casualties, while the German casualties were less than 20,000. With such a casualty ratio, no one would believe that the French could still hold on.
Your last line of defense.
In the eyes of the Allies, they could capture Lyon in a month at most and even force France to surrender.
But no one expected that overnight, their dawn turned into night again. After hearing the news, even Emperors William and Joseph were dumbfounded. As for those three countries, Greece, Argentina, and Montenegro, who were happily beating the drowned dog together, they were all stunned.
I'm crying, Damn, you don't play like this! Isn't this a scam!
Especially Greece, which had just committed more than one army group to the Italian battlefield, now the king and the prime minister were ready to curse.
Fortunately, although the French are ferocious, the German airships and coagulant decoys are not easy to mess with. In the open Isère Valley, the effect is a little worse, but in the narrow Alcé Valley, this thing is still
Invincible, this means that although the German army cannot fight its way out of the Alps, the French army also has no ability to fight back to Italy. After all, they are only ruthless with du gas bombs, which are of no use against the airships above their heads.
This also means that the Alpine front, like the French and Ukrainian fronts, has entered a protracted stalemate. After several months of war and hundreds of thousands of casualties, both the Allies and the Entente have helplessly discovered that they
Still can't do anything to the other party.
Of course, there were some losers during this period, and that was the unlucky Italy. Not only did Italy lose more than a quarter of its territory, but they also had to face attacks from both sides. It is conceivable that next, after understanding the invasion
After France has lost hope, where will the goals of the three German and Austrian armies gathered in northwest Italy turn.
If they give up attacking France, then Germany and Austria only need one army group to block the Alps. What will the remaining two do? They will definitely turn around and destroy Italy with thunderous force. Anyway, by this time the Greeks have landed in their south. Germany and Austria
The four Greek and Black countries combined will have six armies to fight against Italy. After understanding this, Italian Prime Minister Litini was also dumbfounded.
Of course, at this time, the Italians have temporarily given up the idea of switching sides. After all, the current situation has changed. No one can tell who the final winner of this war is. Although the Allies still have the advantage on the battlefield, if the French
If they use their new du gas bombs on the Marne River battlefield, or let the British use it on the Dutch battlefield, then it is hard to say whether the Germans can block it, especially the Dutch battlefield. Once the Germans cannot block it, then it will be
Straight into their territory.
At this time, Italy also temporarily firmed its position. Prime Minister Litini and Her Majesty the Queen issued a mobilization order to mobilize another one million troops to drive all invaders out of Italian soil. Because Crown Prince Umberni is only three years old, so
After Emanuele III was captured, Italy is now regented by Queen Elena, but it must be noted that this queen is the Princess of Montenegro.
Of course, what they did was just to express their determination to the Allies. How could Italy mobilize one million people now? There are more than 1.5 million in Austrian prisoner-of-war camps alone! To put it bluntly, the Italians are dragging their feet.
Let's wait and see how the war develops next. If Germany really goes south to attack Rome, and the British don't send more troops to help them, then Italy will have no choice but to surrender. Anyway, because of the relationship between the queen's father, Grand Duke Nicholas I of Montenegro, secretly
Contact the Germans first. If the British increase their troops to help, then let's continue the fight. Anyway, the British are on the side, and Italy only needs to help with the fight.
And if the British really get a new type of du gas bomb from the French, they might be able to reverse the situation of the war, and there is no hope of regaining the country by then. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
