Chapter 218 Negotiation
Province of Burgundy, the residence of the Grand Duke Matthaeus.

Recently, no matter day or night, the mansion is brightly lit, as bright as day.

It's just because the people coming and going in and out of the mansion never stop.

There are officials in charge of Burgundy's internal affairs, military generals in charge of military affairs, local and even large and small aristocratic figures in power from all over the country, messengers and liaison officers who travel to and from various battlefields, and so on.

Of course, not all the people who met and dealt with these people or things were Grand Duke Mateus.He is at a loss for spare parts now, wishing he could split himself into several parts, and use one person as ten.It wasn't an extremely urgent matter, and he didn't bother to ask about it.

In fact, the province of Burgundy is located in the center of the empire, and the provinces of Taranto and Brussels have successively rebelled, turning this heartland into the front line of the battlefield.But I don't know whether it was a coincidence or luck. So far, the army in the Burgundy province has not started a fight, no matter how big or small it is.

During the battle against the rebellion in Taranto, General Muller was ordered to lead the Tiger Cavalry to support. Because of Frankie's voluntary retreat, the two sides did not fight.

Brussels suddenly rebelled and led a large army to cross the border.Also for some unknown reason, the rebels camped before the first line of defense in the province of Burgundy. So far, they seemed to have fallen asleep, and there was no more movement.

Although the soldiers had never used a knife or a gun, and the province had never been affected by the flames of war, the pressure on the Grand Duke Matthaeus was no less than that of the Grand Duke Matthias in Huaishui Pass.

Huaishui Pass is the most important pass in the Brilliant Empire, and it is also the most critical line of defense in the east of the Empire.His Majesty King Beckenbauer dared to break his face with the Riga Empire, and the soldiers and civilians of the Empire still maintained the confidence and fighting spirit to resist, all because of the existence of this great pass.

The responsibility is heavy and the impact is far-reaching. Mattesias knows it well, so there is nothing to say, and there is only the horoscope of "closed by people, closed by broken people"!

Grand Duke Mattesias only needs to focus on fighting without worrying about other things.In comparison, Grand Duke Mateus is much more worried, worried, and worried.

The province of Burgundy is located in the center, gathering all the forces that the empire can produce today, and has the task of supporting the other two major battlefields.

But should it support the east or the west?Is the size of the support force large or small?It is impossible to have clear orders for these, and it can only be determined by Grand Duke Mateus based on his own judgment based on the situation at the time.

But the situation on the two battlefields is not optimistic, and the military power in his hands is not strong enough to allow him to squander it.Outside the first line of defense on the border, although the army in Brussels did not move at all as if it had taken root, the Grand Duke did not dare to really use it as a display. No small force.

However, a 2-strong Riga army mixed in from the southeastern mountainous area of ​​the territory, not only threatening their supply line to the Huaishuiguan, but also causing the local cities and villages to be shrouded in the cloud of war, and they also had to be prepared.

The Eastern Front needs support, the Western Front needs support, and the mainland must maintain sufficient military strength.Although the province of Burgundy has gathered a large number of troops from the imperial capital and the province of Hanover at this time, the size of its own army is not small.But every aspect must be considered and taken care of, and no mistakes can be tolerated, and the hair of Grand Duke Mateus is almost graying.

If the new general hadn't led an elite team to fight Schindler's guerrilla war and pinned down the [-] Liga army in the southeastern mountainous area, the Grand Duke's life would have been even more difficult.

It is said that they have done a good job. When the last report was sent, it was said that nearly 3000 enemies had been eliminated, so Schindler should feel very heartbroken.

But today, Grand Duke Mateus held the secret letter sent by the general in his hand, but his brows were tightly furrowed, his face was hesitant, and he was quite embarrassed.

"Father?" Mueller called in confusion.

The father and son were not the only ones present, there were other people watching and waiting.

"Huh?" Grand Duke Mateus subconsciously responded, and then came back to his senses.

He once again carefully read the secret letter in his hand that he had read many times, word by word, and then he sighed and handed it to the person on the left.

"Marquis Marco, you should read it too. Everyone will read the general's letter later, and then discuss and sum up the contents."

Marquis Marco took the secret letter and opened it.

The content of the letter was not long, and a few words had clearly explained what was going to be said.But Marquis Marco's face showed the same shock, hesitation and disbelief as the Grand Duke.

He quickly read the letter from the beginning to the end again, and confirmed that he did not misread or misunderstood it. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and handed the letter to the next person.

All the high-level and even core members of the military gathered in the province of Burgundy at this time. Seeing the expressions of the Grand Duke and Marquis Marco after reading the letter, they were all surprised and very curious.I can't wait to grab the letter and have a quick look.

Fortunately, the letter is not long, and it doesn't take too much time for everyone to read it through, so they don't need to suffer for too long.

When the letter passed through the hands of everyone and returned to the hands of Grand Duke Mateus, the venue fell into a very strange atmosphere.

The Grand Duke raised the letter in his hand, and asked: "Everyone has read the letter, what do you think about the general's plan, why not tell us all about it."

Marquis Marco didn't say a word, but quickly glanced at the venue, taking into account the reactions of everyone present.

As he expected, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't speak.

The Grand Duke looked at it and frowned.

The young man's plan is quite bold, if it succeeds, it will be easy to talk about it.However, if the plan is not carried out smoothly and there is a slight error, the consequences will be very serious.Thinking about the worst result, it may even lead to the total collapse of the three fronts, and put the glorious empire into a situation where it will never be restored.

The matter is of great importance, and it is not surprising that everyone is prudent and cautious, and they are unwilling to express their opinions easily.

But the war was raging, and Anthony stated in his letter that when the letter was sent out, he had already started making relevant arrangements, but there was no time for them to mutter and ponder it.

"Marquis Marco, what do you think of this plan?"

No, the Grand Duke Mateus had no choice but to ask questions by name.

Marquis Marco seemed to have been prepared for a long time. He raised his head and chest, and looked directly at the Grand Duke without avoiding his eyes.

"My lord, I agree with the general's plan."

Seeing everyone's astonished eyes, Lord Marquis was a little complacent, and added:

"Although I don't understand military affairs, I have great confidence in the general. Since the general thinks the plan is feasible, there will be no problem."

When everyone circulated and read the letter, Marquis Marco calmed down from the initial shock and hesitation.Thinking of his father's special instructions to him before leaving, he quickly came to a conclusion in his mind.

Mueller heard his tone flat, as if deciding which restaurant to wait for a drink.But hidden in the plainness is unquestionable and unshakable trust.I can't help but mutter to myself:
"I believe you said that you don't know military affairs. However, there are two generals standing behind you who are still familiar with military affairs. You didn't turn around to ask a question, and you immediately agreed. It seems that there are so many people here. You have the most confidence in Anthony."

Grand Duke Mateus was also taken aback.

He originally thought that Marquis Marco would evade it in a vague and perfunctory way, and he had prepared a lot of drafts for this, but now he couldn't use it at all.

The Grand Duke turned to the two generals on the other side.

"Two generals, what do you think?"

Those two generals were the heads of the [-]st and [-]nd Royal Infantry Regiments. They were sent by Anthony to the province of Burgundy together with the Hanoverian army of Marquis Marco to obey the unified command and dispatch of the Grand Duke of Mateus.

The two looked at each other, already thinking about it.

The head of the first regiment clasped his fists and replied: "My lord, we are originally serving under the command of the general. We will obey the orders of the general."

Grand Duke Mateus squinted at him and nodded slightly.

Although they all agreed, the group leader's answer was even and smooth, even more slick.

Anthony is the general who was conferred by His Majesty the King himself. He led the First and Second Royal Infantry Regiments and the Second Royal Cavalry Regiment, and was their immediate superior.The military law in the army is strict, the superior has an order, and the subordinate can only follow the order exactly, otherwise it is a violation of the military law and will be severely punished.

They only said that they followed the orders. If the plan fails, the responsibility is of course the person who gave the order, but it has nothing to do with the two of them.

Grand Duke Mateus finally turned to his son, General Müller, head of the elite Tiger Cavalry Regiment of the Burgundian Army.

"Muller, do you have anything to say?"

Gathering at this place at this time, people who were able to hear and discuss important military secrets came from roughly three places.One is the Hanover Provincial Army represented by Marquis Marco.The second is the First and Second Royal Infantry Regiment from the imperial capital, headed by two regiment leaders.The last one is the local forces in the province of Burgundy, and General Muller is one of the senior generals of the young and strong faction.

Unlike the two regiment leaders just now who were smooth and sophisticated, Mueller is a pure soldier, and considers issues more from the perspective of the general military situation.

After a little hesitation, he pondered and said: "The general's plan is very good. If it succeeds, it can deal a heavy blow to the enemy. But there is one thing that has to be considered, that is, the army that needs to be dispatched is too large. And we There are too many places to take care of in Burgundy, after mobilizing troops, if a certain battlefield suddenly warns, I'm afraid..."

Mateus was very dissatisfied with his son's hesitation, and asked with staring eyes: "Don't talk about those who have nothing, analyze a lot, but can't utter the final conclusion. I just want to ask you, do you agree or not?" be opposed to?"

Although the Grand Duke Matthaeus is not a pure military style like the Grand Duke Matthias of Huaishui Pass, the two have a close friendship, but their personalities are similar.Even in such a high-level meeting, they just shouted "Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu".

General Muller can't have any opinions on this, who made the Grand Duke his own father.

"I agree!"

As one of the few young generals in the province of Burgundy and even in the glorious empire, Muller is also aggressive and not afraid of taking risks.If it weren't for the seriousness of the matter, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, this plan will surely become a turning point in the war between the two countries, and he has long been the first to agree.

"it is good!"

Grand Duke Mateus acted decisively and made a decision immediately.Although he is old, his courage does not make him young.

"Reply to the general, and everything will be done according to his plan! I, Burgundy, will definitely cooperate with all my strength."
