Napoleon II Reborn

Chapter 432: Drain from the bottom

Chapter Four Hundred and Thirty Two

After a while, the three of Leonid made up their minds. Leonid said: "Your Excellency Aubrey, after our consideration, our three countries have agreed to cooperate with your country. However, your Excellency also knows that our three countries have been exploited by France for so long, and military expenditures are really limited. Therefore, we hope that your The state can pay us 300 million francs for the military before the war begins. And, after the war, your country is not allowed to invade Eastern Europe."

Aubrey thought about it for a while. To be honest, Leonid's conditions were not harsh, but it was too much to ask Sweden to pay them military expenses. 300 million francs is not a small number. Although the United States had given them a huge amount of military aid before, it was only 800 million francs. It is really a heartache to share a small half with others now. "I'm very sorry! Three, I can't decide this. I have to ask the country for instructions before I can reply to the three." Aubrey said.

"You are welcome. There is a telegraph next door, you can use it." Leonid said with a smile.

Gustav IV was also a little angry about the request of the three of Leonid, but he has no bargaining capital at all now. If the three Eastern European countries do not cooperate with them, then Sweden will not win this war at all. hope. Therefore, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and accept the conditions of the three of Leonid.

From Aubrey's departure to his appearance, it took less than half an hour in total, and it can be seen how eager he is. As soon as he got back to his seat, Aubrey said excitedly: "Three, it's really great. His Majesty the king of our country has agreed to the conditions of the three. Now, we are allies."

"This is really great. Come and serve wine!" Leonid also said excitedly. He had expected that Gustav would definitely not refuse their conditions. 300 million francs, he should at least get more than 100 million. Originally, judging from the current situation, France has been wary of the three Eastern European countries for years. In this case, they have no other choice but to fight to the death in France. Unless, of course, they can relinquish their power, then they'll be fine. However, these people are completely used to the feeling of having power in their hands. Asking them to give up their power is definitely more difficult for them to accept than killing them.

The guard immediately brought up the wine, and the four toasted together to celebrate the agreement.

"Next, let's talk about the specific plan." Aubrey said after putting down his glass.

Leonid and the others nodded, then returned to their positions.

"My Majesty's meaning is this. When the war officially broke out, our four countries will cooperate to attack the French army. First, the French army's Eastern Front Group, which includes several 300,000 troops, and France's French army. The 3rd Army and the 90,000 Polish troops loyal to France. We think we can attack this army first. At that time, we will send 150,000 troops to cooperate with your 300,000 troops to attack the opponent. At the same time, Anatoly Your Excellency should send troops to cut off the opponent's rear. In this way, we should be able to wipe them out. Next, you must also send troops to the 2nd French Army stationed in Poland, the 4th French Army stationed in Nizhny Novgorod, and the French 4th Army stationed in Nizhny Novgorod. The 3rd Iberian Army in the area is attacking, hold them back and don't give them a chance to come to the aid of the 3rd French Army," Aubrey said.

Hearing what he said, the expressions of Leonid and the others changed instantly. What a joke, let them attack 3 French legions, wouldn't that make them court death?

"Your Excellency Aubrey. Those are three French legions? Let's attack. Isn't that hitting a rock with an egg?" Leonid said with some dissatisfaction.

"Yes! Your Excellency Audrey. You must know that our three countries have a total of 600,000 troops, 300,000 were transferred by France, and now there are only 300,000 people left. The three legions of the French army have at least 350,000 troops. And the combat power is much higher than ours, how can we be their opponents?" Anatoly also said with a bitter face.

"Your Excellency Aubrey. We are going to attack the French army, so what is your country going to do? It won't be just sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight!" Valentin said with a sneer.

Hearing what the three of them said, Aubrey's face quickly turned ashen. He snorted coldly: "Our country has to be prepared to resist the attack of the 600,000 troops of the French Western Front Group. As for everyone, you only have 600,000 troops? I don't think so." After finishing speaking, Aubrey looked at Lieutenant with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. Onid three. The Swedish intelligence agency has gone through detailed reconnaissance. Although Leonid and others hid it very deeply, the Swedish intelligence agency still obtained the military strength of the three Eastern European countries from a senior general of the Russian Federation through a beauty trap. the real situation. On the surface, the three Eastern European countries have only 600,000 troops, of which 240,000 are in the Russian Federation, 210,000 in the Russian Democratic Republic, and 150,000 in the Kingdom of Russia. But in fact, the number of troops in these three countries far exceeds this number. Including those trained reserves, within a week, the Russian Federation can arm another 180,000 people, the Russian Democratic Republic can arm another 150,000 people, and the Kingdom of Russia can arm another 120,000 people. The three countries add up to 450,000 people. It can be seen how strong the determination of these three countries to get rid of France is. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to hide their strength.

Seeing Aubrey's weird smile, the three of Leonid felt a little terrified. Did he discover their preparation? This is impossible! Even the French didn't find out, how could they find out? Therefore, the three still bite the bullet and say that they only have so little army. If Sweden does not send troops, they will not attack the French army.

No way, seeing this, Aubrey had no choice but to tell all the information he got. In this way, the three of Leonid were speechless. "Actually, you don't need to take the initiative to attack the French army, you just need to hold them back. It may be difficult to defeat the mighty French army, but to resist their attack, with such an obvious force advantage, it shouldn't be very difficult. Difficult. When the French 3rd Army is settled and the army is moving south, by that time, it will be enough to defeat all the troops deployed by France in Eastern Europe." Aubrey continued.

Don't understand how Aubrey knows their secret though. However, since the other party already knew about it, there was no need for the three of Leonid to conceal it anymore, so they had to agree to hold back the three legions deployed by France in Eastern Europe after the war broke out. After annihilating the French 3rd Army, they will completely defeat all the troops in Eastern Europe subordinate to France, drive the French forces out of the entire Eastern Europe, and even gather troops to attack the French mainland.

Next, the three of Leonid clarified their respective tasks after the outbreak of the war. The Federal Republic of Russia must resist the attack of the French 2nd Army and send an army of no less than 50,000 people to attack the French 4th Army. The Russian Democratic Republic must cut off the retreat of the French 3rd Army going south and prevent the French 4th Army from going north to rescue the French 3rd Army. The Kingdom of Russia gathered all its troops to attack the Iberian 3rd Army and suppressed them in the Don River area.

After reaching an agreement, all four returned to their respective countries and started a new round of secret transfer of the army.

March 18, 1830. The Eastern Front Group and the Western Front Group formed by France left St. Petersburg and Hamburg at the same time, and launched an attack on the Kalmar Alliance headed by Sweden. The Eastern Front Group launched an attack on Helsinki along the Gulf of Finland, while Sweden mobilized 150,000 troops in the border area to prepare for the French attack. The Western Front Group launched a fierce attack on the Jutland Peninsula, while Denmark assembled 200,000 troops across the country, preparing to "fight to the death" with the French army in the border area.

March 19th was a day that shocked the world. Because on this day, two farces happened at the same time. Denmark first, as the French crossed the border and continued their advance. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com The Danish army took the initiative to withdraw its defenses and did not resist the invasion of the French army. Even provided drinking water and food for the French army. And, at the same moment, the King of Denmark issued an announcement to the whole world, stating that he would withdraw from the Kalmar Union and would remain neutral in the war. But in order to get forgiveness from France, therefore, they will allow French troops to pass through Danish territory.

The Danish king's announcement caused an uproar all over the world. European countries headed by France expressed their appreciation for Denmark's actions, claiming that this is a move by Denmark to abandon evil and move towards justice. Sweden, Norway, the United States and Canada strongly condemned this shameless act of betrayal by Denmark. The Danish government, on the other hand, remained silent on these remarks and did not express any views. It's like 'Go your own way, let others say it! ’ look.

Denmark's coercion, for the Kalmar Alliance, is tantamount to drawing a salary from the bottom of the pot, almost causing the Kalmar Alliance to lose 30% of its strength. Denmark allowed the French army to pass through its territory, which exposed the iron hooves of the French army between Sweden and Norway. The two sides are only separated by a narrow strait, and the French army can cross the strait at any time to launch cross-sea landing operations against Norway and Sweden. Facing Denmark's rebellion, King Gustav IV of Sweden was even more angry and scolded the King of Denmark for being shameless. However, in order to resist the French attack, the limited navy still had to be deployed in the Strait area.

In the afternoon of that day, the same villain drama was also staged along the coast of the Gulf of Finland.
