C2680 Flosads Small Calculations (1/2)
Flosad did not know how the battle ended up in such a pathetic state. It was obvious that his side had the upper hand, but on the battlefield, he could feel the Prussian army suppressing him!
It was inexplicable. The textbooks of all military academies could not explain this difficult problem. Perhaps only philosophers or theologians could give an ambiguous answer, and that was that the national destiny had changed!
National destiny, this was an extremely delicate term. But at this moment, it was a reality that others could touch upon!
Just as Xiao Letian had said, ”To be able to bring the same strength from heaven and earth, to bring heroes is not free!”
The chaotic supply of logistics, the turmoil in the hearts of the people, the rise and fall of the Workers' Movement, the crisis in the passing of generations, even these old generals who had fought before were in a trance … All sorts of negative influences were gathering together, turning into a huge mess that dragged the whole battle into a mess!
No one could say for sure what this was. This was an indistinct power, an extremely decaying aura!
If only one or two of these minor ailments appeared, then with France's strong national power as the foundation, there would not be any major problems. But if countless minor ailments erupted at the same time, then even if Napoleon the War God was reborn, he would not be able to turn the situation around.
Flosad's mind was currently filled with lead, it was so heavy that it felt as though it could crush his neck. Countless voices resounded in his head, and the officers beside him were anxiously urging him to do so, like the buzzing of flies.
He kept shouting in his heart, ”Attack them, the enemy only has six or seven thousand, and I have twenty-five thousand elites. As long as I give the order to retaliate, I can definitely eat these Prussian s!”
”I have the ability, so do my soldiers!”
But just as he was about to make this decision, another voice came from the bottom of his heart.
”No!” Flosad, you have to be calm, war does not stop at the battlefield, have you thought about the brutal battles in the political arena? ”
”France will definitely win, because we have countless human and strategic resources. If the south can pull out a million strong army to support the northern front lines, we will definitely win this war!”
”But before you win, what will you, Flosad, obtain? If you consume your own soldiers in the first war, how many troops will you have after you win? ”
”You have to think carefully about how much contribution you can get if you don't have the strength to be a general!”
Flosad couldn't help but shiver, the determination in his heart had been retracted.
At this time another voice roared, ”Bastard, how can you think that? Do you know that you are betraying the country? ”
”This is a war between two races, a battle of life and death. How can there be such selfish thoughts? Prussia has already fought for this war throughout the country, are you still thinking about your contributions?”
”The Empire needs victory. His Majesty needs it even more!” Have you forgotten how much pressure His Majesty is facing now? the people, the republicans and the workers colluded... ”
”They demonstrated, they distributed reactionary journals, they even engaged in armed uprisings... Those people have already come closer step by step. They want to reorganize the government, they want to overthrow His Majesty! ”
”If His Majesty fails at this point, they will have even more reason to attack him!”
”General, you have to think deeply. You have to win the battle for His Majesty!”
Flosad straightened his back, as if he was about to make a decision.
”Hehehe …” A ghostly laugh sounded from the bottom of his heart, ”Is that really the case? Don't lie to yourself. This is not the truth! ”
That sinister voice began to bewitch him again, ”Flosad, you must think carefully. How does the French Emperor position itself? You want to think about it? ”
