C3001 The Führers Worries (2/2)
The longer it dragged on, the worse it became for Prussia, because France was much more powerful than Prussia.
What was worse was that France was still a vast territory. Once they let go of the Foreign Legion's preferential treatment policy, there would be more and more reinforcements from abroad, and the more time passed, the more they would lose!
And the danger of diplomacy. The harder Prussia fought, the more worried the British would be. How much longer could they endure?
Perhaps if the French win one or two, the British will make a high-profile diplomatic intervention!
Gan Bida had already gone out on his balloon. He was a ruthless person! With him here, the south of France would not fall and would continue to attack the north!
As for the Mace City, Marshal Ba Zan still had over a hundred thousand elite warriors! Although the Mace City was short of supplies, as a military fortress, there was no shortage of bullets or ammunition.
This group of stubborn resisting tigers, once they encounter the Southern Regiment's bit of support, even if it's just the stimulation of victory news, they probably won't be able to seal it off!
Inside William Palace, Xiao Letian was walking on Wilhelm Mountain after dinner. The top of his head was filled with the light of cigarette butts amidst the crowd of people.
The Chinese officers stood at the foot of the statue, expressing their views on the situation. The Prussian guards did not dare to disturb them, only guarding them from a distance of twenty meters.
”Is the situation really that serious? Paris is already surrounded by us. If we add another hundred thousand troops to expand our army to four hundred thousand, wouldn't we be able to win? ” Xiang Ying was confused.
”And the Southern Legion, a group of recruits, how could they have any fighting strength?”
Xiao Letian smiled bitterly and said, ”You don't understand, you don't understand... You don't seem to understand much about bureaucrats... ”
”Actually, the collapse of the Empire and the establishment of the Republic, for those regional bureaucrats who were not affected by the war... ”That's good news!”
”Do you really think that the local organizations aren't strong or that they don't have money? ”Are you kidding? That's because those corrupt criminals are afraid that their bad debts will be exposed!”
”How many of those despicable officials secretly lend usurpers with the taxes and finances of the Empire? ”Many of the money and items on the books have long since flown off to who knows where …”
”The accounts are all fake, the warehouse is empty …” In this situation, how do you expect them to pay to support the frontlines? ”
”In order to buy time, they can only delay it and cause chaos!”
”Now things are easy, the empire has fallen, the war is on fire …” ”They have time to flatten out the fake accounts, even burn them down, and create new accounts from new ones …”
”Countless corrupt officials took advantage of this good opportunity to change heaven and earth to cleanse themselves of this matter …” ”Then now will be the time for them, who have been cleansed, to work for the new government!”
”In order to get a vote for the Republic... ”These dirty officials will use a hundred times of their previous strength to prepare for battle!”
”Just you wait, Gan Bida will soon have a victory!”
Hearing the leader's faint words, Xiang Ying and the other young men suddenly shivered. ”The human heart is really dark …”
Xiao Letian helplessly said, ”I think Gan Bida also opened his eyes and closed them once … War now depends on these local bureaucrats, even if they have the money... You have to admit it too! ”
Suddenly, an autumn wind blew through the forest. The chilling night wind gave everyone goosebumps!
