C2647 Invite to battle! (1/2)
”Rhine and the terrain on both sides of the river are unfavorable for the large legions. Whoever uses troops here is courting death, but can the northern side use soldiers? ”Actually, the geography is very complicated too!”
”First of all, in a border region of just over a hundred kilometers, from the south to the north, Foshan Mountain Pulse stands tall in France!”
”This place is filled with forests, it is the most important place in France to produce coal and iron. It is worth mentioning that the Joan of Arc's hometown is here!”
”It is impossible for the French to deploy their troops here. Only a few mountain infantry divisions can barely fight, and those heavy infantry divisions with cannons can only gather on the east and west sides of the Foshan Mountain Pulse!”
”This divided the French legion into two parts, and the whole battle became two separate battlefields! This is the weakness of the French, the best chance we have to concentrate our forces on each other! ”
”On the west side of Foshan Mountain Pulse is the main battlefield, and according to the intelligence, the French Emperor is leading the main force to gather at the Mace, while on the west side of Foshan Mountain Pulse is the secondary battlefield, where the French Marshal McMahon is already at!”
”Chief of Staff Mao Qi's strategy is to make use of the terrain of the Foshan Mountain Pulse as much as possible, and split up the troops so that they cannot assist each other. First, focus the troops and eat McMahon's army, and then attack the Strasbourg!”
”Prince Karl's third legion and Prince Frederick's Second Corps have begun to advance towards the Strasbourg! At this time, the 1st Legion will have to face the enormous pressure from the French Emperor alone! ”
”It's good to be able to delay our allies for one more minute. Therefore, when facing the enemy's probing attack, we absolutely cannot reveal our true strength!”
”We have to make Napoleon III believe that the main force of Prussia lies in the Western Battlefield, so we have to force them to gather their troops here. We have to create conditions for Prince Karl to win!”
”At this time, who wouldn't be the one to go up? ”Marshal, because all the French generals think the same way as you, we must be the first to show our faces on the battlefield!”
Xiao Letian's meaning was extremely clear. At that time, everyone in Europe thought that the main function of the two thousand strong Chinese army participating in the super great war with hundreds of thousands of people was actually to use the pepper noodle.
It only increased the taste a little! No matter whether they were enemies or enemies, neither of them believed that these two thousand people could play any decisive role in strategy. To let the Chinese fight on the battlefield was actually more of a political gesture!
Prussia wants to show France that it is not only Prussia that is declaring war on you, even the Chinese in the East want you to do so. You are the unjust party, and they are the just ones!
Even Bismark believed that splitting the contribution of the Chinese was for a better cooperation in the future. After all, in the future, the Empire would need to rely on the Eastern Market.
Under this kind of background, the Prussian military definitely would not let these guests be trapped in a dangerous situation. It was absolutely impossible for them to fight a dangerous battle!
When Steinmetz sent the Chinese army to the border of Luxembourg, he wanted them to stay far away from the main battlefield. The safer they were, the better.
”This, this, this, this …” Chief, this will make things very difficult for me! ”
”What's the problem? ”Because the French have your judgment, they will judge us as the main battlefield of Prussia as soon as they see our sound!”
”With the hatred the French Emperor has towards me, I believe that he would use all his might to gather his troops. If we were to fight more fiercely on this side, the pressure on the direction of the Strasbourg would be slightly lower!”
