Chapter 64(2/2)
As a marshal of the French army, after hearing such things, Murat's heart was bleeding.
Those are the most elite soldiers in France.
They are all veterans who have followed him and Napoleon for many years!
"After the war, Russia must join the EU and accept the EU's leadership.
Because, at that time, you were the front line against the Ming Dynasty.
This is also our bottom line and is non-negotiable."
Bismarck has always been known as an iron-blooded man, and his words leave no room for negotiation.
"All right!
We have tricked Ming Dynasty this time, so we naturally need protection from the EU.
On behalf of Her Majesty the Queen, I promise to join the European Union, and after the war is over, Her Majesty will sign the formal document."
Prince Peter also knew that this was probably not a bargain.
“Hehehe!
Welcome Russia to become a member of the European Union!" Murat smiled and raised his glass.
The four glasses banged together, and Prince Peter drank it down happily.
This trip to Prussia was not in vain, and they were able to reach an agreement with the coalition forces and completely drive away the Ming people.
Originally, Russia and Ming Dynasty fought side by side and won one victory after another.
For Russia, this is the time to flex its muscles.
But Prince Peter, who was in charge of government affairs, was surprised to find out.
After winning one victory after another, Russia not only gained nothing, but even lost many mines that originally belonged to Russia.
So much so that when we exchange potatoes, corns and sweet potatoes with Daming, we actually have to use wood that Daming originally disdained.
Ming Dynasty is greedy, they suck the blood of Russia like leeches.
As the war progressed, Russia became weaker and weaker.
All the young and middle-aged men went to the battlefield, leaving only the old women and children in the rear.
It's still winter, and many things haven't been exposed yet. How can these people do the heavy work in the fields when spring comes?
Grain production will definitely decrease, and then people will starve to death everywhere.
Although Prince Peter didn't care much about the life and death of those peasants who were like ants.
But, after all, this will also affect his interests.
The estate's income is low, not only is Russia's tax revenue low, but its income is also decreasing.
More importantly, Duke Peter felt that the Ming Dynasty Marshal Li Xiao did not look down on these so-called nobles at all.
He even saw disgust in Li Xiao's eyes.
The Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty hated them!
This information is dangerous. He doesn't want to be killed by Ming one day.
It is better to rebel now than to be killed in the future.
At least the nobility in Europe are integrated, and there is still a traditional tacit understanding between the nobility.
Work together to safeguard the interests of the nobles!
Although joining the EU is not a good idea, Russia will not be worse than it is now.
The contract was quickly reached, and the four people signed their names on the secret agreement.
It has to be said that in this era of rampant lies, European aristocrats still follow tradition!
You can get very quarrelsome during negotiations, but once it's down to paper, you'll stick to it.
This is the aristocratic spirit they are proud of!
I am afraid that this kind of spirit is the only thing left in Europe now.
After the business talk was over, it was time to drink.
When a few old guys drink together, they naturally won't call in a few escort girls like a swinger.
For them, chatting is also part of the job.
Especially for Bismarck, Murat and Winston, they were eager to know everything about the Ming Dynasty.
From the mysterious generalissimo to the combat effectiveness of an ordinary soldier in the Ming army.
"The Ming army was very tired from the continuous fighting in winter.
Although the Ming army did not tell us their casualties, I saw them.
Every day, a large number of airships were sent to Ming Dynasty to transport wounded soldiers to Ming Dynasty.
Every day there are a large number of trains transporting new soldiers from home to replenish the army.
One thing they are different from us is that their recruits only go to the battlefield after three months of training in the rear.
Unlike us, the conscripted soldiers were randomly incorporated into the army without receiving proper training.
Many times, veterans who are capable of fighting are dragged to death by recruits like them."
After listening to Prince Peter's words, Murat nodded.
When Napoleon talked to him, he was still a little puzzled.
It was obvious that the company had been crippled, but within a week, it would be back with full strength.
Compared with before, the combat effectiveness has not dropped significantly, and is even more powerful.
The French army was different. After the front-line veterans suffered a large number of casualties, those soldiers recruited from the rear were also sent to the front.
Many of them only fired a dozen rounds of bullets until they were killed.
The Ming Army's policy of replenishing troops resulted in the Ming Army's training and equipment advantages becoming more obvious the further it reached the rear.
The French army, which had never been on the battlefield and had not received good training, gradually became unable to defeat these Ming armies.
Not to mention, the Italians have always faced the world as a weak master.
Many times, a company of the Ming army could chase an Italian battalion.
Those Italians had no power to fight back except running away.
Some people in the French army often say that if it weren't for the Italians, Tsaritsyn might have been captured long ago.
"Then the Ming Dynasty's war potential is really jaw-dropping.
The Central Asia Railway never stops transporting supplies every day, and every soldier on the front line can eat delicious dry food.
During normal operations, everyone has a box of canned beef every day.
Everyone must eat one egg every day, even front-line soldiers are no exception.
They also brought in apples from China, truckload after truckload.
Some troops can even eat citrus.
Injured soldiers will be treated in field hospitals and sent back to the rear.
There were obviously a lot of empty wagons on the return trip, but they insisted on using airships to transport them. Because this would reduce bumps and shorten the time.
And I look at you, there are many wounded soldiers freezing to death on the battlefield.
The Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty said that veterans, especially those who have been injured and return to the front line, are the treasures of the army.
If the war continues until next spring, in addition to adding well-trained recruits, Ming Dynasty will also have many veterans with rich combat experience return to the army."
