1717 New American Empire

Chapter two hundred and sixty third Europe

It was already the thirtieth day since Xiao Lin captured Boston. During these thirty days, Xiao Lin mobilized most of the company's construction team and began to transform Boston's fort facilities. All backward front-loading artillery were replaced.

dismantled and installed the company's artillery. In addition to necessary heavy

In addition to the Quansan-type 25mm caliber heavy-duty coastal defense guns, which are used to target the enemy's thick-skinned battleships, the others are 75mm and 37mm caliber guns. All three gun companies have mastered the manufacturing technology. Now North American companies say

After all, there are a lot of iron ore resources.

Naturally, these artillery can be installed as many as they can be installed. In one month, five sea-facing forts have turned into hedgehog-like existences. Once they are attacked, their sharp spikes will be directly exposed.

, and tie the enemy into a colander. According to the information obtained from Linman, in fifteen days, the British 80,000 reinforcements will arrive, including 13,000 field brigade soldiers and 27,000 garrison brigade soldiers.

Forty thousand men were gathered, and all were stationed in Boston.

Moreover, the civilian towns along the coast have also been relocated. Whether they are willing or not, these civilians can only leave the towns and live in the newly arranged settlements arranged by the company. Many vicious traps have been placed in the towns left behind.

, no food was left, and the wells were contaminated by many animal carcasses. This was done to implement a scorched earth strategy, so that the 80,000-strong British team could not get any supplies when they landed in North America. When they were exhausted, they would

When the company annihilated these 80,000 people.

At the same time, this is not just because of the scorched earth strategy. Prosperous industry always requires the population to be dense. Without a dense enough population, there will not be enough workers, and there will not be a large enough market, and the natural industrial development will be very slow.

The concentration of the population is also the main development model of the company in the future. However, Xiao Lin does not know yet that all the preparations he has made for the 80,000 British reinforcements have been in vain.

Just two weeks ago, a clipper ship caught up with the fleet and reported a message to the commander. The mainland sent an order, and the fleet immediately turned around and abandoned all unnecessary things. All the backward cold weapons were thrown away to reduce weight. The entire fleet,

Rush to the European mainland as quickly as possible. This is because the French gave the British a hard uppercut on the European continent. King Louis XV of France, in the Hall m1819 musket and the heavy punch cannon

After large-scale production, irresistible ambitions emerged.

He wants to become the most outstanding king in French history, and he wants to surpass his father, his grandfather, and even his great-grandfather. And the fastest way to realize this dream is to completely defeat France's old enemy, the British.

Although the entire European royal family is related to each other, in the face of huge interests, the blood relationship is no longer a reason for them to maintain peace. Louis XV will be the first to form a battle of 10,000 sergeants.

They are scattered in various small villages and towns on the border between the two countries.

Then, he successively established 10,000 infantrymen using Hall M8191 rifles, and 30 latest fleets equipped with heavy-punch artillery. After that, he immediately began the landing operation against the British Isles. Although the British

Because of the information transmitted from the North American continent

They were wary, but due to the excessive deployment of troops, the local defense was weakened to a certain extent. However, the imitation of Hall's M1819 and Heavy Fist Type 1 failed to break through, allowing Louis XV's army to break through with one blow.

The British coastal defense successfully landed on 6.

Twenty thousand troops, equipped with Hall M1819s, also played with the British in queuing to kill. This long-range, high-shooting musket really gave them an advantage. While the British were still marching, they had already

Shots were fired. When the British finished firing the first shot and reloaded, they had already fired the third shot. This was the gap, and this gap caused the British to pay huge casualties. Continuous shooting

In three weeks, the number of British casualties reached 10,000, while the French had less than 3,000.

This kind of battle damage ratio has never appeared in any previous Anglo-French war. According to the company's consul in France, if the fighting method is changed, the French casualties will be reduced. Louis XV was surprised and bitten

Ya reduced the expenses of the royal family and used all the extra money

They were all used to hire military attaches for the consulate and train the French new army. Under the example of Louis XV, a large number of French nobles donated generously. Don't think they are stupid. If the French annexed Britain, then they would pay this benefit

It will be returned tenfold and a hundredfold.

Otherwise, without their support, it will be very difficult for Louis XV to do anything in the future. According to Louis XV's plan, he will once again form a new army of 50,000 people, all of which will use Hall M1819 muskets and heavy punch 1 artillery.

Combat. At the same time, a fleet will be formed again, all equipped with heavy-handed artillery, including battleships, cruisers, and frigates. France, because of this huge military industry order, has shown prosperity.

Military factories that do not have enough manpower can only recruit workers from outside in order to complete orders in time. In order to ensure quality and efficiency, real money must be given. With money, workers will naturally consume, and with consumption,

With the injection of funds, the market naturally began to prosper. Even if there are no these workers in the future, the market will not weaken too much, as long as it enters a virtuous cycle. Because of this, some social contradictions in France have been temporarily hidden, although it cannot be said that

Completely disappeared, but the explosion time has been extended.

The whole of France suddenly changed its attitude and focused its main energy on dealing with the British. The British, who were the target of the French, were really uncomfortable. The local army itself was not very large, and the number of elites was even smaller.

At this time, the disadvantages of over-reliance on Hessian mercenaries appeared. My own army was not strong enough, and now I wanted to hire mercenaries. Not only did I not have time to realize it, but even in terms of cost, the Hessian mercenaries would be astonishing.

Mercenaries live a life of licking blood from the tip of a knife, and they don't care who they beat. Today they can work for the British, and tomorrow they can work for the French, it just depends on which side pays more. And don't try to give

They are reasonable, and you are definitely not as good as they are at being unruly.

There have been voices in the parliament, beginning to criticize the royal family and several grand dukes who had agreed to Anderson leading an army of 30,000 to the North American continent. However, this was not the time for internal strife. The French's army of more than 17,000 was still

Ruining their lands.

In such a short time, they have advanced a hundred miles, and more than a dozen towns have fallen into their hands. If this continues, it will not be long before the French army will advance to London. The Parliament and the royal family discussed together and decided to pursue

The 80,000 servants gathered back to the mainland were all transported to the mainland to consume the power of the French. At the same time, the mainland immediately started militia signs, and the arsenal immediately started producing muskets and artillery at full capacity. It did not need to be too advanced, but it required speed and quantity.

There needs to be more and the technology needs to be mature.

An envoy also brought enough money to find Hessian mercenaries, preparing to hire more elite mercenaries. The British wanted to rely on these three tricks to make a comeback and drive the French invaders out of the country. And the British fleet also

Start gathering. Now, one-on-one British fleet cannot defeat the French fleet. Therefore, they will not use refueling tactics, but will gather the fleet together and prepare to gather a sufficient number.

Annihilate the French fleet in one fell swoop and cut off the French's supplies.

This may be the only shortcoming of the French. The bullets of the Hall M1819 rifle cannot be produced in their occupied areas and can only be transported from the mainland. If the supply ship cannot pass through the strait, the war will not last long and the British will not be able to fight for long.

The French team will lose most of their combat effectiveness. The Hall M1819 has no bullets and cannot be used. They can only use the captured front-loading muskets, and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced.

Moreover, the war between Britain and France affects not only these two countries. Let alone other things, the younger brothers of the two countries have entered into a state of confrontation with each other. If this was left in the past, the British

The younger brother of the French has already started to fight back. But now, because of the outstanding performance of the French and the poor record of the British, the younger brother of the French is full of confidence, but the younger brother of the British is a little less confident.

The French brothers each provoked, and the British brothers were a little afraid to move because their boss seemed to be in trouble. They just reduced their defenses to prevent the enemy from attacking. Louis XV was willing to support the younger brothers with some Hall M1819 and heavy punches.

But they

How could it be sold to others if it was not enough for his own use? However, the French weapons were still very good, and they were among the best when released. At the suggestion of his staff, Louis XV sold half of the weapons returned by the army and gave them away.

It won over many people's hearts.

At the same time, they also received some money to subsidize their finances. At the same time, both sides began to win over neutral countries, and the local forces in Europe began to transform into two huge alliances of forces. The continent of Europe suddenly became turbulent, and the atmosphere of tension was

It filled the sky across the continent. People also sensed that something was wrong, and began to restrain their smiles and arrange emergency measures. Every time there is a war, the most miserable people are the civilians at the bottom.

The armies of this era have no discipline. No matter whether they win or lose, they will probably loot. If they don't prepare early, even if they survive the war, they will have no future. In fact, there will be

A few people took the risk and prepared to go to the South American continent to live.
