Napoleon II Reborn

Chapter 131: cameo robber

(Bosses, it’s the end of the month, who still has a monthly pass, please vote for Xiaoyu, thank you! There should be a chapter later. In addition, I recommend a friend’s book, and I hope everyone can support it. The address is: http: ?l_id=137883)

It's not that Xiao Jie looked down on the Russian army, it's just that their elite troops basically died at the hands of the French army, and the only ones left in the country were those second-line troops and newly recruited troops, those who basically didn't go to the battlefield Of course, the army will not be the opponent of the French army, which has experienced many battles and is equipped with weapons that are much more advanced than Russian weapons.

"Your Highness, how many troops do you plan to use to attack Russia this time?" Lanshi asked. If they really decide to go to war with Russia again, then they must do their best to win.

"I think it's enough to use our four legions in Poland. It should be enough to deal with the current Russia." Xiao Jie thought for a while and said. After all, the theme of this war is not to destroy Russia or occupy Russian land, but to ask Alexander to submit to France. There is no need to use too many troops.

"Is our legion alone enough? This time is no different than before. We will inevitably encounter fierce resistance from the Russians when we go deep into Russia this time. By that time, our hundreds of thousands of people may not be enough." La Na also reminded from the side.

Xiao Jie knew the reason for their caution. In history, no country has ever been able to invade Russia. In addition, Russia has always been aggressive. Can we not be prepared? If the ship capsizes in Yin Gong, I am afraid that the feats they have built up with great difficulty will be discredited. During this time, the supplementary soldiers finally arrived, and both the 3rd Army and the 5th Army returned to their full strength of more than 40,000 men. Murat's cavalry regiments are also full, with a total of 8 cavalry regiments and more than 20,000 people. However, Xiao Jie's 88th Army took advantage of this rare opportunity to expand again. The reason was that in previous battles, Xiao Jie realized that the 88th Army's infantry was seriously insufficient. In the war, the firepower of the 88th Army was strong enough, but after suppressing the enemy with terrifying firepower, it often lacked enough infantry to defeat the enemy. So Xiao Jie has expanded 5 infantry regiments this time. Now the 88th Army has more than 30,000 people, including 8 infantry regiments, 1 cavalry regiment, 1 artillery regiment, 1 transport regiment and the regiment directly under it. other troops. Only now has it really reached the size of a legion. In the same way, Xiao Jie also used his power to promote all his brothers in those few hours to the deputy head of the lieutenant colonel. Among them, except for Thomas who continued to serve as the battalion commander of the heavy artillery battalion, the others were all regiment-level cadres. Of course, Xiao Jie did not forget to promote Thomas to lieutenant colonel.

For the use of force against Russia this time, Xiao Jie plans to use more than 130,000 troops from the 3rd Army, 5th Army, 88th Army and Cavalry Army. Among them, one legion was drawn from the 120,000 people of the three legions in Poland to transport various supplies for the French army. One of the other two legions is stationed in Poland to maintain the stability of Poland, and the other is stationed in southern Poland to prevent possible looting by Austria. Although this possibility is very small, it is better to deploy some troops.

Now that someone suggested that the troops might not be enough, Xiao Jie had no choice but to compromise: "Is that okay? I will immediately inform His Majesty the Emperor about what happened here and my decision, and I am asking him to send troops to support us."

Hearing what Xiao Jie said, the others were relieved. That night, Xiao Jie wrote a long letter about Napoleon. In the letter, he introduced the development of Poland during this period and some problems that still existed. In addition, after Talleyrand’s mission was not completed, he planned to Measures taken, and his request for military support.

When his letter was handed over to Napoleon, Napoleon agreed to his request directly after reading it, and dispatched Marshal Lune's 4th Army directly from Munich to Poland, where Sirte was resting in the Netherlands. The Marshal's 7th Army also immediately went to Poland to join the attack on Russia. This will be the first time that France has taken the initiative to attack Russia and entered the Russian mainland. This makes Napoleon very excited. He has long wanted to teach this greedy polar bear a lesson. However, many countries have been restraining him before. Due to the distance between the two countries, there is no chance. But it’s different now. Russia’s elite troops have basically been wiped out. Except for a small number of troops stationed in Central Asia and the southern border areas, the other troops have basically never been on the battlefield, and Poland is also firmly in control. In the hands of France, this gave France an excellent opportunity. Napoleon instructed Xiao Jie to fight this battle well and teach the Russians a lesson, and he will give him the greatest support. The only thing that made Napoleon a little regretful was that he could not personally command this great battle.

After Xiao Jie sent someone to send the letter to Paris, a legion in Poland began to prepare for battle. The troops scattered all over Poland began to assemble, and important materials such as ammunition began to be stored. The whole of Poland was filled with the smell of war.

On March 10, Xiao Jie found Murat, Lanshi and Lana. "Is the preparation work of each legion going smoothly?" Xiao Jie asked.

"It's all good, all the work is going on in an orderly manner, and we can dispatch troops as planned in early April." Murat replied.

"That's good. I called everyone this time to change our plan a little bit." Xiao Jie said.

"The plan needs to be changed again." Murat and the others couldn't help thinking, could it be heredity? Last time Napoleon wanted to attack Britain, he also kept changing the battle plan, so that in the end the whole battle plan was aborted. Thinking of this, several people felt a little uncomfortable.

"I don't know which part of the plan His Highness wants to modify." Lan Shi asked.

Xiao Jie shook his head and said: "I don't want to change the battle plan that has been made, I just want to add a little bit before implementing this plan."

Hearing what Xiao Jie said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and said in their hearts: "Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not inherit the "hobby" of His Majesty the Emperor."

"You see, we still have nearly a month to launch an attack on Russia, but isn't it too idle for the troops to have no combat missions for so long? So I plan to send a few small troops into Russia to wreak havoc and rob them Wealth, burn down their various military facilities and industrial bases, drive away those people in Russia, and plunge Russia into turmoil, which will be more conducive to our subsequent offensive." Xiao Jie said with a sinister smile.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a chill. They really didn't know whether it was the Crown Prince of France or a robber in front of them.

"Andresi, it's not good to do this. We are the great French army, not robbers. This will damage the honor of France. If you insist on this, my army will not participate." Miao La directly rejected Xiao Jie's proposal, and the key to the plan this time was to involve Murat's cavalry, but Murat didn't give any face, and Xiao Jie's teeth itched outright.

"What about the two of you?" Xiao Jie looked at Lan Shi and Lana. The two also shook their heads quickly, expressing that they would not participate in this operation. Although Xiao Jie told them about the various benefits of being a "bandit", such as being able to rob a large amount of various wealth in Russia, destroying their military deployment, and improving the combat effectiveness of the troops. Just like the Russian Cossack cavalry. But the two still unequivocally refused.

As a last resort, Xiao Jie had to go it alone. But he has only one regiment of cavalry, and cavalry are the only ones capable of such a task. Xiao Jie gave a detailed explanation to Brad, the head of the cavalry regiment, and told him that this time he was not asked to fight the Russian army head-on, but to focus on destroying Russia's war power and plundering wealth. Avoid powerful enemy forces, pick small ones, etc., to maximize the tactics of guerrilla warfare.

Brad was also a little reluctant at the beginning, but he still accepted the big hat of being for the interests of France. After 30% of the wealth that Xiao Jie promised to rob was at their own disposal, Brad De immediately got excited and promised Xiao Jie that he would complete the task well.

Xiao Jie was taken aback for a moment, and said involuntarily: It seems that people have the potential to become bad, as long as they can give enough benefits.

On March 11th, Brad led his troops to set off. After knowing their mission, his soldiers did not object. Instead, they were very happy. Earning some "external money" is the best.

A week later, Brad returned with a full load. Due to their weak strength, they only dared to penetrate one or two hundred kilometers into Russia, and basically robbed some small towns. They did not move any big cities with garrisons, although the wealth in big cities was much greater. , but saving your life is the most important thing.

This time Brad and the others snatched back 20 million francs worth of gold and silver jewelry, valuable antiques and various supplies~lightnovelpub.net~ Xiao Jie immediately distributed 600 francs to them as promised. This is terrible. Not only the troops of the 88th Legion are jealous, but also Murat, Lanz and Lana who refused to participate in this operation before. Profession. Many asked to participate.

Since being a "bandit" requires the ability to come and go like the wind, you can only draw cavalry from a legion to participate. After negotiation, 3 regiments were drawn from Murat's cavalry regiment, plus the cavalry regiment of the 3rd Army, the cavalry regiment of the 5th Army, and the already "veteran" cavalry regiment of the 88th Army. The first was formed by bandits who cameo from the regular army. According to regulations, 30% of the plundered wealth must be handed over to Napoleon, the biggest "boss". Thirty per cent was given to the troops in action, and the remaining fifteen per cent was given to officers and soldiers who did not take part in the operation.

Xiao Jie deeply understands that only when the interests are shared equally can there be no troubles. It's just that this made the Russians a disaster, especially those near the Polish-Russian border.
