Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 240 Drag the Eagle into the Water
Without the cavalry rushing out to deal with the opponent's artillery positions first, the musketeers could only force the opponent's artillery to cover them.

This is not excluding shooting, but queuing up to die.

What made Franz II even more unacceptable was that the French army led by Napoleon was actually equipped with 48 artillery pieces!

An army of about 5000 people is equipped with 48 artillery pieces, one artillery piece for every 100 people on average?
How could there be such a play?
You know, the more than 2 Habsburg coalition forces in the entire city of Astorf are only equipped with forty artillery pieces.

Franz II was a little envious: "Where did those damn French frogs get so many cannons? Could it be that those rose beef really got mixed up with French frogs?"

Frog plus beef, what is this?Fat cow and beautiful frog pot?
But it doesn't make sense, the mad king George III is at most a lunatic rather than a fool, not to mention whether England has so many artillery, even if there is, he can't sell it to the French frog, right?
After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a reason. Franz II simply stopped worrying about this problem, and instead looked at Zweig and asked, "How long will the food last?"

Zweig was not worried about the food reserves in the city at all: "Don't worry, Your Majesty the Emperor, the food in the city is enough for five days, and after five days, a new batch of food will be delivered, and the outside of the city Those French frogs, they can't stay here for five days."

Franz II still agrees with Zweig's analysis-the French frogs have more artillery, but a large number of artillery means that the consumption of shells is fast.

Moreover, 5000 people need to consume a lot of food every day. This is also a huge test for the logistics of the French frogs, and they may not be able to afford it.

The situation in Napoleon's army was similar to what Franz and Zweig expected.

In just half a day, Napoleon's army consumed more than 300 shells. If the fight continues like this, it is estimated that [-] shells will not be enough.

It's a pity that Napoleon never had the idea of ​​besieging Astorf all the time.

There is a saying in the art of war, ten rules surround it.

If there were 20 troops, Napoleon would not hesitate to encircle Astorf and kill Franz II, the Austrian emperor, thus ending the war.

If there were [-] or even [-] troops, Napoleon would not hesitate to choose the tactic of encircling three queues, forcing Franz II to abandon the city and flee, and then chase after the Austrian army.

It's a pity that Napoleon only had a total of more than 1 troops in his hands, and it was impossible to completely surround Asdorf.

Of course, after receiving more than two years of training at the Daming Military Academy, Napoleon also has enough ways to deal with the immediate situation.

The [-] troops were divided into two groups, one led by Napoleon himself, blocking the gate of Astorf, and the other led by Napoleon's cronies, to attack the city of Ledange, which had few soldiers.

At the same time, the Duke of Auerstedt, Louis-Nicolas Davout, who was trained with Napoleon in Ming Dynasty, led his own Rhine cavalry brigade, cruising around Astorf and Ledange, against the Luxembourg implemented the tactics of strengthening the wall and clearing the field, and at the same time it was also to block Asdorf's grain road.

Once the grain road in Asdorf is cut off, Franz I, the Austrian emperor, and the [-] troops in Asdorf will become rootless duckweed, and they will either run away as soon as possible, or stay in Asdorf. Waiting to die in the city.

……

When the news of Europa's full release came back to Daming, Zhu Jinsong was actually stunned.

Although Louis XVI and George III had already said before they left that they would choose a weak chicken to make a movie and make a reputation in Europa as a small pot, but Zhu Jinsong did not expect that the weak chicken chosen by Louis XVI and George III would actually It would be the Habsburgs.

This is somewhat impolite.

What Zhu Jinsong didn't expect was that the war would start in such a child's play way—the two sides declared war, but they didn't start fighting immediately after the declaration of war. Instead, the war officially started after the death of Alsed Felson.

If you have to pick out some bright spots, probably only the performances of Napoleon and Davout can be mentioned, and the rest are simply negative teaching materials among negative teaching materials.

Of course, the full opening of Europa's films will not have no impact on Daming.

After asking Ke Zhiming to give an overview of the situation at Europa, Zhu Jinsong turned his attention to Geng Rui: "How is Brother Fifteen?"

Geng Rui replied: "Back to the emperor, brother fifteen has led his troops to flee westward, and in three to five months, Gurkha will be pacified."

For three to five months, Zhu Jinsong was not surprised.

Gurkha is different from the eighteen provinces in China, and the situation in Wusizang and Dogansi is also different.

There is nothing to say about the eighteen provinces of Handi. There is no such thing as a mess in this ancient territory.

The two places of Wusizang and Duogansi are more troublesome, because before Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty had always implemented the Jiji system for these two places, that is, the system of Xuanwei envoys, with garrisons, but more relying on the land. officials to manage.

As for what those coated Ahhas are touting, how powerful the Qing Dynasty ruled these two places, so that these two places were completely included in the territory of the Central Plains, just listen to this kind of nonsense.

The Qing Dynasty relied on the policy of headmen, princes and cadres. The game is similar to that of the grassland, and it is all about worshiping release to control its survival, but it is not as slippery as the grassland.

To put it bluntly, they didn't have the same heart with the Qing Dynasty, they just kept their face to pass, just like the Ming Dynasty before Chongzhen.

Now Zhu Jinsong is reforming the land in Wusizang and Duogansi, setting up peasant associations and equalizing land, not only the land in the hands of the sages and gentry, but also the power in the hands of the princes and chieftains.

This makes it unacceptable to those princes and chieftains—for thousands of years, the princes and chieftains have the final say on this land. Once you come to Ming Dynasty, you will have the final say on your Ming emperor and the Ming government, prince The chiefs have no other privileges other than retaining their titles, so that's okay?
For Zhu Jinsong, the Ming emperor, the idea of ​​these princes and chiefs wanting to retain their privileges is also unacceptable.

Before I occupied Wusizang and Dogansi, you had the final say, and after I took over, you still had the final say, so why didn't I come here in vain?
Therefore, the following things became obvious.

When it comes to wars, especially wars on the ground, Daming's army really has never been afraid of anyone.

Then, the problem of Wu Si Zang and Duo Gansi was resolved.

But the problems on the Gurkha side are even more troublesome than the problems of Wusizang and Dogansi.

For the Gurkhas, the Ming army belongs to the kind of existence that will go to hell-although they are also ruled by the fifteen elder brothers, but they know how to play with this kind of thing, similar to Ah Boom and the like became the masters of the Three Upper Banners, how can those slaves under the Five Banners still make a fuss?

Comparing the two, it was the fact that Ming's army was a bit clueless. After arriving in Gurkha, they neither paid homage to the mountain nor offered any preferential treatment.

Therefore, it is easy for the Governor's Mansion of the Right Army to fight against Gurkha, which is about the same difficulty as for a strong adult man to fight against a Chihuahua. The difficulty is how to stabilize the place after the fight.

Regarding this question, Zhu Jinsong just laughed and said: "It is natural to say that those who are willing to be naturalized can follow the old practice of the North Korean chief envoy. Follow the old rules."

The old practice of North Korea's chief envoy is to let them rebel first, and then arrest the laborers after the rebellion is over. Zeng Cheng, Geng Rui and other civil and military ministers are very familiar with this set of procedures.

Zhu Jinsong went on to say: "It's better to deal with Gurkha's affairs sooner rather than later. The sooner they are dealt with, the sooner Da Ming can deal with Ottoman."

Speaking of this, Zhu Jinsong's face became a little dignified again: "Europa is in chaos, Daming is about to attack Ottoman, and Tsarist Russia is also coveting Ottoman's land, plus Nurgandus, only I'm afraid that sooner or later, Ming and Tsarist Russia will have a fight."

"Also, we have to find a way to drag the Silly Jaeger into the water, and we can't give it a chance to stay out of the matter."

If we really talk about it, the Silly Javelin is also quite worrying.

At the beginning, Peanutton had agreed with Louis XVI and George III. After returning home, he would pick a weak chicken and beat him up, trying to win the reputation of being a small pot on the small broken ball. In the end, Da Ming chose Osman, Louis XVI and George The third picked the last Habsburg family, and Paul I was even more ruthless. He directly wanted to do Ottomans first, and then the Habsburgs.

Of course, what kind of opponent other people pick has no effect on the Silly Eagle, as long as the Silly Eagle honestly picks one near its own territory.

The problem was to pick and choose, and the silly burglar found something was wrong.

To the north is Canada, which England snatched from France.

Further north is the territory of Mao Xiong's family.

Going south...the small countries in the south are either Spanish colonies-Spain is now mixing with France.

Either it is a colony of Portugal—although Peanutton is sure to beat Portugal violently, but what about the military indemnity that Portugal owes Daming after Portugal is beaten?Is it necessary for the silly burglar to come out for him?

Therefore, the Silly Eagle had been picking for a long time but couldn't find anyone who could do it. The worried Peanut Ton even specially sent Adams as an envoy to Daming to explain this problem.

But then again, everyone is filming, but you stupid eagle want to stand on the dry shore with a high-sounding appearance?

What a beautiful thing to think of!
