King's Landing in France

Berthier: "General! Don't you worry about diplomacy?"

An Ning pouted.

The Kingdom of Sardinia is not the Papal State. The Kingdom of Sardinia has troops. It has tens of thousands of troops that can fight in the field, and it is very close to the supply line of the French Mediterranean Sea.

If the Kingdom of Sardinia suddenly joins the war and cuts off An Ning's supply line, the situation will be bad.

In Napoleon's war history, he first conquered the Kingdom of Sardinia before turning to the south of Milan for a decisive battle with the Austrian army.

In case I haven't dealt with the positive Beaulieu and the Kingdom of Sardinia joins the war, it will really be the enemy.

Of course, there is another solution to that situation, which is to quickly assault Milan and collect supplies in Milan—yes, it’s just collecting supplies, not robbery.

An Ning thought for a while and asked Berthier: "Can I communicate with the Kingdom of Sardinia first and ask for a military access?"

Berthier: "Of course, but this requires sending envoys to Turin, the capital of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and negotiating with them. It is estimated that they will be stationed on the south bank of the Po River for more than a month. My suggestion is, take advantage of the current strength of our army Advantage, forcibly crossing the river.

"The Austrian army has lost most of their heavy artillery and supplies. They must not have much ammunition reserves. As long as they attack for a few days, they will retreat because their supplies are exhausted."

An Ning was stunned: "Berthier, Berthier, in your eyes, our soldiers are just numbers on the data? No, we can't waste the lives of our soldiers like this. I want to think about how to save money as quickly as possible. overwhelmed the enemy's defenses on the Po River."

A few days after An Ning was stationed in Piacenza, news of the front line came from Paris.

On the front line, Du Mourier defeated the Holy Roman Empire coalition forces led by Marshal Wumze.

An Ning was shocked when she got the news.

He has been using the original historical situation in 1796 to describe the current situation, so he thought that the frontal front would always be stumbling, and he had to rely on his brilliant victories in Italy to change the situation.

An Ning had already thought about the rest of the plot. After he defeated Northern Italy, he besieged the Mantua fortress. Austria sent people to rescue the fortress several times in a row. As a result, he won several big victories.

In the end, the fortress was breached, and he prepared to march from northern Italy to Vienna, forcing Shinra to cease fighting, and return Louis XVI and Queen Mary who were hiding in Vienna to France.

As a result, Di Mourier defeated Wumze head-on!This script is suddenly wrong!

※※※

At this time, Emperor Franz II of Shinra was also discussing countermeasures with his ministers.

Duke Wilm, Prime Minister of the Shenluo Empire, said to Franz II: "Your Majesty, our army has suffered disastrous defeats in the direction of Northern Italy and Lai Yin. The current situation is very pessimistic. It will be dwarfed in terms of military strength, and I am afraid that the legion of His Royal Highness Karl will have to be mobilized.

"In addition, the continuous defeat has also had a huge impact on the prestige of the empire. I am afraid it will affect our position on the Polish issue!"

Franz II gritted his teeth: "Damn it, how could things be so bad in France!"

Duke Wilm sighed: "That is France after all. Although the domestic revolution has weakened its strength, a lean camel is bigger than a horse."

In fact, Duke Wilm's statement is wrong. In fact, the revolution has improved the strength of France, but as a great nobleman, he cannot admit such a thing.

Franz II: "So what to do now?"

"The top priority is to end the war with France as soon as possible, and then send your aunt and uncle back to France."

"Wouldn't that be a problem?" asked Franz II, "They won't..."

"No," Duke Wilm said solemnly, "your uncle has been away from France for so long, and the French have not abolished the king, but have shown a tendency to support the Duke of Orleans as the new emperor. It means that your uncle is in France Still has a certain prestige."

Franz II paced back and forth in the room, and finally clapped his hands: "Okay, let's do it! I've had enough of my aunt's petty actions in Vienna! I will write to the French National Assembly immediately to express our Send back the king and the sincerity of the truce!"

※※※

A few days later, the National Assembly in Paris.

Brissot of the Girondins was making a speech on the podium: "Everyone! With the victories of our army on the frontal battlefield, especially the brilliant victory of General Dumouriez, the emperor of Austria bowed to us. reconciled!

"But should we welcome back that king and his Austrian damsels? No, never! He has turned his back on France, and we will never welcome traitors back!

"Think about that locksmith king, and his Austrian sluts, who haven't done much good in France! We should have a new king!"

"No!" Marat burst out, "France is now a citizen's France! We should establish a republic! Just like North America!"

Brissot: "Nonsense! The British had a glorious revolution and established a country of citizens, but they finally chose to welcome back a king! And now, the royalist party is still very powerful, especially in rural areas. Everyone still Needs a King's!

"For the sake of the stability of France, I propose that we should choose an orthodox heir from the existing king's family tree! Just like what the British did after the Glorious Revolution!

"Fortunately, we now have such a suitable candidate, and that is the son of the Grand Duke of Orleans! I propose a vote to support him as Louis XVII!"

Chapter 177 Mr. Bonaparte Feels His Destiny

Anning was confronting the Austrian army across the river, and the news from Paris came.

His jaw almost fell to the ground and shattered.

In the original history, the youngest son of the Grand Duke of Orleans played a cheating role—literally, someone wanted to help the little guy become the new French king, but it failed. The little guy went abroad by himself. The Jacobins in power sent Papa to the guillotine.

The Grand Duke of Orleans can be said to be one of the many tragic figures in the French Revolution. He himself was very revolutionary. As a great nobleman, he not only opened up the real estate he owned for Parisian citizens to play before the revolution, but also showed a closeness to the people. He also personally funded many Enlightenment thinkers.

He helped publish many pamphlets for the townspeople, which catalyzed the revolution.

Then, after the convening of the third-level parliament, as a great nobleman, he joined the discussion of the third level very early and stood with the common people.

Later, in order to express his revolutionary position, he even changed his surname to "Equality". Yes, his surname was "Equality" in the original history.

For this reason, he also has a nickname, "Mr. Equality".

As a result, this Mr. Equality, eating hot pot and singing, supporting the revolution, was suddenly cheated by his son, and then the Jacobins seemed to have forgotten everything he had done before, and sent him to the guillotine very resolutely .

It can be said to be very black humor.

An Ning looked at Christina before, and thought about whether to save the first-hand Duke. After all, she has received a lot of favor from him, and she may marry his daughter in the future, right? She is barely half a father-in-law.

At that time, he will take him from Paris to his own territory, and he will be able to take over the coal mines and other assets in the Duke's hands.

Now coal is mainly used for heating in winter. The coal used for steelmaking is nothing compared to the coal used for heating. But the future is the era of the industrial revolution. If there is coal and money, there will be the capital of the industrial revolution.

Of course, An Ning's main purpose is to save people, not to be greedy for the Duke's coal.

As a result, An Ning's wishful thinking was overwhelmed, and suddenly the duke's son became the king of France.

Another throne that cannot be reached in time and space, he has arrived!The king's father, rounded up, this is an emperor's uncle!

Christina transformed herself directly and became the king's sister, who is considered a princess.

What the fuck is this magical unfolding?

The future history is completely unpredictable, and An Ning's advantage as a future person who has read the script is completely finished.

But An Ning didn't have much energy to lament this, because another very bad news came from Paris and Vienna together.

There may be a truce between the two countries.

It should be a good thing for the two countries. The common people don't have to fight, and they can recuperate, right?

But this is a big bad thing for An Ning.

He came to Italy to raise money for the future, and Milan, which is extremely rich, is less than a hundred kilometers away. Now that he is suddenly asked to stop, he will never sleep well in his life.

You know, for a little Diego, An Ning bought five carriages of silver coins and precious jewels. Milan drools when he thinks about An Ning.

He had to blitz Milan before the truce.

An Ning recruited all his think tanks to discuss how to cross the Po River as quickly as possible, kill Beaulieu, and then rush into Milan to end Austria's rule in northern Italy.

A group of people discussed for a long time, and there was only one seemingly reliable method: to raid Valenza, shoot down the guns of the Valenza defenders before the Kingdom of Sardinia could react, and then cross the river here to detour Beaulieu's army. behind.

So on May 5, An Ning made up her mind.

Regardless of any diplomatic issues, Commander Frost does not want diplomatic issues, he only wants Milan.

An Ning's deployment is like this. In order to prevent the Kingdom of Sardinia from suddenly participating in the war and interrupting his supply line, An Ning placed the former Italian army division commanded by Massena on the supply line from Nice to Savona, and then faced the battlefield. Division Halpu, put on a stance to strengthen the Po River.

The Davust Division mobilized all the bulky infantry artillery, combined with Napoleon's cavalry artillery to form a high-mobility flanking force, blitzed Valenza, and fired their guns before the Sardinian troops could react, and then crossed the river in Valenza.

According to the plan, Davout and Napoleon would appear on the side of Marshal Beaulieu in the early morning of the 21st.

And La Salle, who also crossed the river by detour to Valenza, rushed to Marshal Beaulieu's only retreat, the only bridge on the Adda River, the Lodi Bridge.

The key to the whole operation is speed, the sooner the better!

Marshal Beaulieu's army in front of An Ning was no more than 1 people, mainly the Vukosovich Division.

It is said that Marshal Beaulieu has also sent some troops from the fortress of Mantua, but these troops have not yet arrived.

Even with Davout's troops, Marshal Beaulieu's troops can easily be dealt with.

Not to mention that by the time Davout arrived, the Laharp department would actually start to forcibly cross the Po River.

In the early morning of the 20th, An Ning ordered the artillery to fire. At this time, the artillery in An Ning's hands included all the heavy infantry artillery of the Laharp Division and the Davout Division, and the firepower seemed to be very fierce.

An Ning personally directed the shooting, and a large number of enemy fortifications were destroyed in a day's shelling.

Marshal Beaulieu's Austrian troops had lined up frontally all day long. It seemed that the density of artillery fire convinced him that all of Anning's troops were on the front, and that they were about to cross the Po River with more than twice the strength of their troops.

At night, An Ning saw the Austrian army strengthening the line of defense overnight with a telescope.

When seeing this scene, An Ning knew that she had won.

Early the next morning, Davout's troops appeared on Beaulieu's flank.

An Ning ordered the artillery to advance to the Po River, using shelling to make it impossible for Beaulieu to line up on the side-once the line was formed, it would be pierced from head to tail by solid bullets.

The Austrian army was defeated without any suspense, without even waiting for Lahalp's division to cross the river.

It is a pity that An Ning sent the cavalry to grab the ferry of Lodi, and Marshal Beaulieu was not able to capture alive.

When An Ning's headquarters was crossing the river with Division Laharp, Commander Laharp had a little accident.

Before he got on the ferry, his foot slipped, and he missed his foot, and his leg stuck into the gap between the ferry and the pier, and then hit his ball hard, pulling his hip along the way.

So the professional soldier recommended by Berthier had to go back to recuperate, and An Ning handed over his division to Lana to command.

While crossing the river, An Ning suddenly remembered that this Laharp seemed to have been killed by a stray bullet when he was crossing Piacenza in real history.

The history here has been screwed to this point, and he was seriously injured in Piacenza.

Damn, can it be regarded as self-correction of historical changes?

Is it this time and space, if An Ning sends Massena to capture Diego, Massena will still be attacked at night when he is looking for the little widow after capturing Diego, and run away overnight in his pajamas?

On the evening of the 21st, An Ning received an order from Lasalle, and he occupied the empty Lodi Bridge almost without fighting.

In the original time and space, Napoleon felt his destiny here, and felt that he was the chosen one.

As a result, this plane, the bridge was captured without even a fight.

An Ning couldn't help but ask Napoleon how he felt about today's battle.

Napoleon said excitedly: "My feeling is that you are simply a symbol of victory. As long as we follow you, we will never lack victory!"

peaceful:? ? ?

An Ning: "You proposed the plan."

"But when I mentioned it, I never thought it would be so smooth!"

An Ning curled his lips and decided not to worry about it. He changed the subject: "No matter what, Milan is right in front of us! Davout, light the torches! We will march overnight tonight, and tomorrow we will have breakfast in Milan!"

Chapter 178 As a Jingluo, the Governor of Venice (Milan) should be hanged on Saturday

No matter before or after time travel, An Ning came to Milan for the first time.

In the past, his only knowledge of this city came from two points. One was the city derby between AC Milan and Inter Milan, and the other was his favorite Hayao Miyazaki movie "Porco Rosso", in which Porco Rosso's plane broke down. Shipped to Milan for repairs.

In the movie, An Ning's impression of Milan is that there are many canals and bridges, and the things produced by the factories by the river can go directly into the canals.

After An Ning watched the movie, she always wanted to fly a seaplane in Milan. When taking off, she had to go through many bridge holes.

Because of the movie "Porco Rosso", An Ning has always wanted to go to Milan to see it. Unfortunately, after graduating from university, she joined the company and was busy with introversion every day. If she slacked off every day, she would be severely surpassed by others, let alone travel for a month.

Taking a walk-and-go trip is something only people with wealth and freedom can do. Social animals can only expect Ubisoft's next Assassin's Creed to take the place they want to go as the game stage.

Now, An Ning was standing on the hillside outside Milan under the soft morning light of northern Italy.

The city of Mira seemed to lie beneath his feet.

But there is no river to be seen from this angle.

Strange, is the Milan in the red pig fake?Also said that most of the canals were excavated after the industrial revolution for transportation?

An Ning couldn't help asking the Corsican next to him: "Shouldn't there be many rivers in Milan?"

Napoleon replied: "There are indeed many rivers."
