Chapter 794 A deal

At this time, Crown Prince William's face was sinking, his eyes were fixed on the other party, and he suddenly asked loudly: "According to the information obtained by our intelligence department, the West Army has also intervened in the war. Not only did they participate in the war in Hualan Army, and became its commander. I need to get a reasonable explanation why Zhao Shouhong gave up his best friend at this time."

Chen Wenbao seemed to have a draft in mind, and he said calmly: "Actually, when Archduke Ferdinand was killed, Crown Prince William should have realized that the situation was over. The death of Archduke Ferdinand caused the Austro-Hungarian Empire to lose The backbone, because there is no main nation, this situation has completely lost the hope of victory for the relatively loose Austro-Hungarian army. After the defeat of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Teutonic State will not be able to fight against the whole world alone."

Hearing Chen Wenbao's analysis, Crown Prince William sighed. He knew in his heart that this was the truth, but William II still refused to admit it.Today's Teutonic Kingdom is already at sunset, and there is no possibility of victory anymore. It is too late to say anything now.

Seeing Crown Prince William's dejected expression, Chen Wenbao continued: "Failure is not terrible, the key is how to minimize the loss."

"What do you mean?" Crown Prince William raised his head in surprise, and looked at Chen Wenbao in front of him.

Chen Wenbao continued: "Commander Zhao believes that once the Teutonic Kingdom is defeated, it will inevitably be plundered by the Allied Powers. Saar, Gaul and even the White Eagle Kingdom will take away the industrial achievements accumulated by the Teutonic Kingdom over the decades. All looted to improve the country's industrial capacity. So we sent troops to control the Hualan army, hoping to transfer these things to the Hualan country in advance to prevent them from falling into the hands of the Allies."

"Transfer to Hualan Kingdom? Isn't it still robbed? It's not the same if it's robbed by anyone." Although Crown Prince William said this, his tone softened a bit.He knew very well that once the industrial machinery of the Teutonic state was plundered by various countries, it would strengthen the industrial strength of countries such as Saar and Gaul.

When these countries become stronger, they pose a great threat to the Teutonic country. On the other hand, Hualan is far away from the western continent, and its relationship with other powers of the Allied Powers is not good, especially Saar and Gaul. There are concessions.If the Hualan country becomes stronger, it will instead threaten Saar and Gaul, preventing them from concentrating on the western continent. Snatch is much stronger.

Crown Prince William did not expect that Zhao Shouhong wanted to do more.After being questioned by Crown Prince William, Chen Wenbao shook his head and explained: "I am here this time to reach a consensus with His Highness, so that the major companies in the Teutonic Kingdom will cooperate with our actions. General Manager Zhao has promised that all transported to The machinery and equipment of Hualan State will be registered and registered, and the two copies will be held by the Hanxing Group Company and the Teutonic Enterprises respectively. These equipment will be treated as the enterprises of the Teutonic Enterprises in China, and their ownership will still be owned by the Teutonic Enterprises Yes, they can recruit local staff or send them from the Teutons to continue production there.”

"What did you say?" Crown Prince William stood up in surprise: "What is Zhao Shouhong's purpose, and why did he do this?"

Chen Wenbao said: "We are not on the same road with Saar and Gaul, and there will inevitably be conflicts in the future, so it is always right to weaken the enemy a little bit. What's more, our companies can jointly develop with Teutonic companies in Washington. , jointly improve the level of technology and craftsmanship, and achieve the goal of common progress. When the Teutonic State returns to calm, these companies can move back again, re-strengthen the national strength of the Teutonic State, and restore your ability to revenge. We are always true friends, You must not do such a thing that is quick for relatives and enemies, so General Zhao hopes that His Highness will make a decision as soon as possible, and if you make a decision one minute earlier, the loss of the Teutonic Kingdom will be reduced by one point."

Crown Prince William stood up and sat down several times, looking a little at a loss. He looked at Chen Wenbao and said, "I can't decide this matter on my own. I need to convene an imperial meeting. Please wait for a while, Mr. Chen."

Chen Wenbao nodded and said: "I will wait here, but I need to remind Your Highness that Saar and Gaul's army is only three days away from our army. If we don't make a quick decision, it will be difficult for us to complete the evacuation work."

"Okay, I will do it as soon as possible." Crown Prince William nodded and left the hall immediately.The imperial meeting was held soon, and Crown Prince William expressed his thoughts at the meeting, and all the officials deeply agreed.Even if the Western Special Administrative Region repented, those equipments strengthened the country of Hualan, and it was better than strengthening the two closest enemies, Saar and Gaul.Because of this idea, Crown Prince William's proposal was passed unanimously.

With the order of Crown Prince William, the whole country mobilized. Those companies that had reached an agreement with the Hanxing Group immediately mobilized workers to dismantle the equipment and use the railway to load and transport it to Hualan.The two [-]-ton hydraulic presses that Zhao Shouhong valued most were executed by Chen Wenbao himself, and they were quickly transported secretly to the territory of the Western Special Zone by shuttle.

Three days is naturally not enough for the relocation of industrial facilities in a country, so the companies only focus on loading and transporting various core equipment away.The rest of the important equipment that was too late to be moved was gathered together and hung up the sign of the Hanxing Group Company in Teutonic Enterprises. Wu Ziyu sent troops to protect it at the same time. As for the unimportant ordinary equipment, as well as the blast furnace and factory buildings that could not be moved It was abandoned and allowed to be occupied by the Allied forces.

When the Saar Army, the Gaul Army, and the White Eagle Army rushed into the territory of the Teutonic State, intending to wipe out all the Teutonic military forces, William II issued a state address, announcing the unconditional surrender of the Teutonic State.A few hours after the announcement of the surrender of the Teutonic Kingdom, the Austro-Hungarian Empire announced its surrender, and then the Ottoman Empire, which was already struggling to support it, also issued an announcement of surrender. On January 1919, 5, the First World War was declared Finish.

On the day when the World War ended, Shen Ruoxue gave birth to Zhao Shouhong's second son.Zhao Shouhong was extremely excited about the birth of his youngest son. He didn't even attend the government meeting, and rushed back to his mansion directly.

After learning the news that the Allied Powers surrendered and the World War ended, he immediately made a decision to name his son Zhao Ping, which means that the day of birth means the world will be peaceful and prosperous.However, it is not easy to achieve peace in the world. As soon as the Teutonic State surrendered, conflicts broke out among the allies of the Allied Powers.

In the headquarters of the Third Division of the Fifth Army of the Gallic Army stationed in Essen, the division commander, Major General Dreysenko, was looking at the ragged soldiers in front of him with a livid face.

Chapter 795 Refusal to execute

"You wanted to rush in, but were beaten by the Hualan people?" Major General Dreysenko looked at several people and asked.

"Yes, general, those people are unreasonable. They are obviously the factories of the Teutonic people. These people insist that they are the property of the Hualan people." One of the 'soldiers' said: "We want to force our way in, but they will stop us. .In order not to cause a firefight, I ordered everyone to put away their rifles and break in empty-handed, but those unreasonable Hualan people beat us."

The 'soldier' ​​wiped his muddy neck while speaking, and slid his cuffs over his collar to wipe off the muddy water, revealing the shiny silver collar.It turned out that this person was not a soldier, but a major and battalion commander of the Gallic Army.

"This group of bastards, we fought bloody battles for several years, and finally defeated the Teutonic people. These damned Hualan talents have been here for more than half a year. It's like picking up a ready-made bargain. It's not so easy." Major General Dreysenko clapped The desk stood up: "The 309th regiment gathers immediately, follow me."

Major General Dreysenko of the Third Division of the Gaul Army led a regiment of troops and quickly drove towards the Krupp factory outside Essen.In fact, Major General Dreysenko is not a reckless person. The reason why he is determined to take down the Krupp factory is because of the strict orders given to him by the above.

According to the news sent by the Gaul State intelligence agency, one of the three [-]-ton hydraulic presses in the Teutonic State was placed in this factory.The benefits of the [-]-ton hydraulic press to the domestic industry are very clear to any government, so the Gaul government is so eager to get it.

If they could obtain this [-]-ton hydraulic press, they would hope to surpass the country of Saar industrially during the rebuilding process of Gaul and become an industrial power second only to the country of White Eagle.If there is such a day, Gaul's right to speak in the world will increase a lot, so the Gaul government is bound to win it.

Major General Dreysenko accepted the strict order of his superiors, no matter what the price, he must get this machine, so he had the confidence to lead his troops here.Arriving outside the gate of the factory, Major General Dreysenko took a deep breath. He saw that sandbags had been piled up on the thick factory wall, and various light and heavy machine guns were deployed there. It seemed that there were many defenders.Outside the wall, barbed wire fences like antlers were densely covered, making it very difficult for the infantry to charge. It seemed that the opponent had already prepared for it.

Seeing that the opponent was waiting in full force, Major General Dreysenko temporarily suppressed his own thoughts of doing it directly, and decided to act first and then fight. "I am Major General Dreysenko, Commander of the Third Division of the Fifth Army of the Gallic Army. Please speak out to your supreme commander." Lan soldiers shouted.

The door opened halfway quickly, and a young man wearing a colonel's epaulets walked out quickly, followed by five guards wearing Mauser pistols.Colonel Hualan walked up to Major General Dreysenko and saluted, "Hello Major General, I don't know what you want from me."

"What is your position and name? Why are you here?" Major General Dreysenko asked.

The young colonel said: "I am Wei Bingji, the commander of the 1013th Regiment of the Zhongchuan First Garrison Division under the Hualan Army. Because the security in Teuton is relatively chaotic, I was ordered to lead my troops to guard the safety of the subsidiaries of Hanxing Group."

Major General Dreysenko nodded and said: "Very well, now I order in the name of the major general that your troops withdraw from this place, and this place will be taken over by the Gaul army for protection."

Colonel Wei Bingji smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, Major General. My order was given by General Wu Ziyu, the commander-in-chief of the Hualan Army. It seems that your rank is not high enough. In addition, the Hanxing Group's industry belongs to the western special zone of Hualan State. It can be guarded by our own team, and there is no need to bother your army."

Major General Dreysenko frowned slightly. He would not think that he was inferior to a general of the Hualan Army. In his eyes, even if he was a second lieutenant, a white man was better than a general of the yellow race.He waved his hands impatiently and said, "Admiral Wu Ziyu, I've never heard of it. I came to take over this factory under the order of Marshal Foch."

Seeing that Major General Dreysenko was a little impatient, Wei Bingji didn't take it seriously at all. He still smiled and said, "Oh? An order from Marshal Foch? Then please show the warrant, and I will evacuate immediately after checking."

"What? You don't believe me?" Major General Dreysenko said with his eyes widened.

Wei Bingji was still unmoved: "I'm sorry, this is the discipline in the army. I think there is such a discipline in the Gaul army. Or the discipline of the Gaul army is relatively lax, and not many people obey it at all?" Wei Bingji understood Well, Marshal Foch would not personally order a major general to occupy a factory.Marshal Foch has so many things to do every day, how could he take care of such a trivial matter, otherwise he would have died of exhaustion.

Seeing Colonel Wei Bingji's business-like appearance, there was no bargain at all, Major General Dreysenko sternly said: "I said that if there is an order, there is one, so can I still lie to you? Your people evacuate here immediately, otherwise I will not Keeping you safe."

In Major General Dreysenko's view, the Hualan army is not much different from the native troops in those colonies, and they can come and go as they please.It's already a great deal of face for him to be able to patiently explain for a long time, since the other party doesn't appreciate it, he doesn't need to be polite.

Seeing that Major General Dreysenko wanted to be tough, Colonel Wei Bingji's face immediately sank: "I'm sorry, Mr. Major General, but you refused to show the order. I suspect that you have misleading intentions in passing the military order. I will report this matter to my superiors. Our commander will negotiate with Marshal Foch, and if this is the case, you may face a court-martial. As for your unreasonable demands, I cannot implement them." After speaking, he left without even turning his head.

Seeing that Wei Bingji didn't give face at all, and went back to the factory directly, Major General Dreysenko was furious. He immediately ordered the 309th regiment to attack the factory, and at the same time ordered the other two infantry regiments of the third division to run forward and come to the factory to support the battle. .

At last, Major General Dreysenko hadn't lost his mind by his anger. In order not to damage the [-]-ton hydraulic press in the factory, he ordered the artillery battalion directly under him not to participate in the battle.After receiving the order, the Gaul army quickly formed a formation and charged towards the factory in units of platoons.

Under the cover of the Hotkiss machine gun, the Gaul soldiers opened up the skirmish line and rushed towards the factory as if attacking the enemy's position.

Standing on the top of the fence, Wei Bingji's face was covered with severe frost.He looked around with the binoculars and said: "The Gauls are quite sensible and didn't pull the artillery over, but we don't have such scruples. Tell the brothers to beat them hard. Since they dare to do it, don't blame them. We are ruthless."

Chapter 796 Annihilation of the Gaul Army

The artillery battalion of the regiment quickly opened its posture in the factory area. Twelve 75mm mountain cannons were filled with shrapnel and fired at the Gaul army. With the sound of a huge explosion, the Gaul army that was charging He was immediately blown upside down.Mortars and infantry artillery at all levels also started firing. In front of the West Army with a very high proportion of artillery, any simple infantry charge would be courting death.

Before a round of charge was over, 300% of the light and heavy machine guns in the Gaul army were knocked out, and the angry Major General Dreysenko was furious.When the skirmish line of the Gaul infantry approached within [-] meters of the wall, the light and heavy machine guns deployed on the wall immediately opened fire.

There was no intention of being merciful at all, the soldiers of the West Army were simply fighting to the death.Those Gaul soldiers who thought they were just showing off were terrified when they saw their companions being shot dead one after another.After lying on the ground and barely shooting a few times, they turned around and ran back.

Seeing that his soldiers were so useless, Major General Dreysenko's face turned livid, and his whole body trembled slightly.In fact, the weak combat effectiveness of the Gaul army cannot be blamed on Major General Dreysenko. In this world war, the main battlefield is within the territory of Gaul.The Gaul Army, which participated in the entire war, suffered heavy losses. Millions of elite troops had already died when the war started. For troops like the Fifth Army, which has always been at the forefront, the soldiers have basically changed twice.

In the case of a serious shortage of soldiers in the country, those who were considered unsuitable for military service over the years because of their thin bodies or disabilities were all put on military uniforms and driven to the battlefield. The quality of their soldiers can only be imagined.In addition, the battle was too fierce, and the training speed of recruits could not keep up with the speed of death and injury on the front line. The soldiers in today's Gaul army are seriously undertrained, so the quality of today's Gaul army is not the same as that of the Gaul army before the war. It is no wonder that later Admiral Petain lamented that the First World War wiped out a whole generation of Gauls.

On a normal battlefield, the low quality of infantry can be covered up by fierce artillery suppression, but in infantry warfare where the use of artillery is not allowed, the problem of low combat effectiveness is immediately exposed.After the arrival of the other two regiments of the third division, Major General Dreysenko commanded two more attacks, both of which failed.Apart from dropping hundreds of corpses, they didn't even touch the edge of the fence.

Just when Major General Dreysenko was about to launch a new round of attack, a major battalion commander came to report: "The division commander is not in a good situation. There are troops from the White Eagle Army coming up from behind. It seems that the attack Our way back."

"What did you say?" Major General Dreysenko exclaimed: "This is impossible."

"It's possible." Major General Dreysenko followed the prestige, and a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of a White Eagle Army colonel walked towards him under the protection of several guards.

When he came to Major General Dreysenko, the middle-aged colonel saluted him and said, "Hello, Major General Dreysenko. I am Colonel George Marshall, Chief of Staff of the No.40 Eighth Infantry Division of the White Eagle Country, and I represent the division commander MacArthur. The major general asks you to immediately stop your offensive actions against your allies.” It turned out that because of outstanding meritorious service, the No.40 Eighth Infantry Brigade was promoted to a division, and MacArthur also rose from a brigadier general to a major general. Marshall was transferred here and promoted to a rank. Chief of Staff.

"What did you say?" Major General Dreysenko's eyes were about to bleed: "I was ordered by my superiors to occupy this factory. If you dare to block it, I will not agree."

"Really? Then please show your warrant." Colonel George Marshall said reluctantly.
