Under the gentle hills, the calm fields stretch in all directions, the green grass in summer shows its vitality, the wheat fields have been dyed with gold, the villages are faintly visible, and the smoke of cooking is lazily rising, which also pulls Yue Jingzhong's homesickness up.

"It's really like Liaodong......"

The scenery is not the same, but this kind of vitality stretches out in the sky and the sky, and even the feeling of being close to loneliness is the same, and the years of guarding Liaodong more than ten years ago involuntarily come to my heart. Now he is not only not in Liaodong, but even thousands of miles away, and the land under his feet is Europa, the "Holy Rome" of Silesia.

"It seems that the reason for the proximity of latitude ......"

The mood that was originally brewing poetry changed direction and returned to the military side. The sound of puff and muffled thunder came from far away, and Yue Jingzhong, who had been in a good position for half his life, not only heard the sound of a cannon, but also knew that it was a six-pounder cannon, but there was still a step in the middle, he first subconsciously estimated it to a four-pound cannon according to the Yinghua system, and then converted it into a six-pounder cannon.

The tick-tick rallying horn sounded, and groups of soldiers dressed in dark Charles blue suits and three-cornered hats of the same color gathered towards the hillside where the trumpeter was, and there were also many officers and soldiers in fiery red uniforms and short straight military hats. Yue Jingzhong is also dressed in red, and only the golden color of the cuffs and neckline shows his noble status.

Hundreds of blue-clothed soldiers had surrounded the hillside, but they all spontaneously and respectfully made way for Yue Jingzhong, and in the crowd of blue-clothed people, a fiery red figure was particularly eye-catching. And the yellow-skinned and black-eyed face is even more eye-catching in the crowd of blonde and blue-eyed people.

When Yue Jingzhong stepped on the hillside, a thin figure was standing under a birch tree and raised his arms and shouted.

"Gentlemen, you should all know that while we were busy fighting the French and the Austrians, misfortune had fallen sharply here. Schweitz has fallen, Duke Berfern has been defeated, Breslau has been lost, our food and ammunition have run out, and Silesia has almost fallen. Seriously, if it weren't for you, you strong, brave, fearless sons of Prussia ......"

This man in his fifties looked like most Prussians. The Europa, who could hardly find soft lines on his face, had a fiery glow in his eyes that was difficult for mortals to see, an air of overlook that looked at the battlefield of blood and fire. The whole of Europa is worried about this man. He was none other than the King of Prussia, Frederick II.

Frederick paused, his gaze turned to Yue Jingzhong, the blazing heat descended to warmth, the overlook descended to level-eyed, and even with a hint of respect, he stretched out his arm to Yue Jingzhong. continued: "If it weren't for the selfless assistance of His Majesty Emperor Seris, with Marshal Yue and his army here, I would have been completely desperate. ”

Yue Jingzhong collected his heart, pressed his palm to his heart, bowed to Frederick, and replied in Prussian, which he was already fluent in: "Seris is with Prussia. ”

Frederick II excitedly repeated: "Thank you, Lord! Thank you Seris for your life-and-death friendship with Prussia! ”

He looked around at the officers and soldiers around him, and his eyes were blazing again: "Son of Prussia! Son of Seris! You are all elite soldiers with outstanding military achievements! All that you have done for Prussia and for me. I will never forget it! for you are there, and Seris is there. I'm confident in this decisive battle. ”

"Warriors of Prussia and Seris! The decisive moment has come! If the Austrians are allowed to continue to entrench themselves in Silesia, we will achieve nothing! I want to tell you plainly that the opponent has twice as many troops as us and occupies the favorable terrain, but I will use the great wisdom of Seris, and my personal courage, to turn this war into a stage for our performance! We rely on courage and careful planning, and we will definitely defeat the enemy! ”

"The Prussian and Seris warriors, convey this determination to all. Let's get ready for the coming test......"...,

Frederick's speech ended with "Good night, sir, we have either defeated the enemy or we will never see each other!" At the end of the day, around the hillside, there was a tidal wave of cheers.

“Sieg！”

“derSieg！”

This was the cheers of the Prussian officers and men in blue coats.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Yinghua Wansheng!"

This is the cheers of the officers and soldiers in red. In the red clothes, there are both yellow skin, white skin, and even brown skin.

"Victory is not only Prussian, but also our Anglo-Chinese ......"

Yue Jingzhong also raised his arms and cheered, but his heart was full of such thoughts.

In July 1760, the Battle of Leuten broke out, with 70,000 Prussian troops led by Frederick II, King of Prussia and Yue Jingzhong, the Governor of Anglo-Chinese European Dispatch Forces, and 130,000 Austro-Russian troops led by Prince Karl of Austria, Marshal Dawn and Russian Saltykov and Rumyantsev on the other. Before this battle, the Anglo-Chinese Dispatch Army had been fighting hand in hand with Prussia for more than half a year.

The Seven Years' War, which was supposed to break out in 1757, was delayed until 1760, and because of the intervention of the British and Chinese, the war escalated into a world war from nominal to substantive.

The tide of history is rolling in like a river diverting its course, and it is not a one-time achievement to completely reverse the history of the entire world. When the eastern hemisphere changes, the historical trend of the western hemisphere is still pushed by inertia and continues to move in the original direction.

Frederick II still led Prussia in the direction of national self-reliance, and did not hesitate to tear up the peace treaty signed during the War of the Austrian Succession, Maria Theresia was bent on restoring the glory of the Habsburg HRE Empire, Britain continued to engage in the "balance of power in Europe", France continued to seek continental hegemony, and Russia was ambitious, looking for every opportunity to take advantage of.

But beyond this inertia, another force came from the far east, like a raging wind, constantly dispersing the blood and fire that hovered over the continent.

Politically, after the completion of the great cause of unification, Britain and China continued to move westward, which had a great impact on the colonies and spheres of influence of European countries. In order to coordinate this new pattern of interests, envoys from the East and the West have been continuous. For European countries, whether they mediate with the Anglo-Chinese alone, or try to form some kind of alliance to deal with oppression from the East, it will take a great deal of attention.

Just as France's attempts to form an "anti-Cyrisian alliance" have quietly failed, the economic problem is more fundamental, and all attempts to form a Western alliance are unlikely to succeed. Portugal is a "European traitor" who embraces Seris's thigh, and Spain is bitter and happy because of the economic dealings between the American colonies and Seris. All the proposals to be an enemy of Cyris were perfunctory, and the Netherlands did not even dare to speak out because of Java, a lonely testicle hanging in the east, which was tightly pinched by Seris, and more importantly, Britain had established a long-term peace with Seris. The strategy of East and West.

The only thing France could pull in was Russia, which was anxious about Seris's advance in Central Asia and Siberia, but it was only by the cooperation of Russia and France that before their fists could fall on Seris, a circle of countries surrounded them.

As a result, France could only sit back and watch Britain join hands with the Anglo-Chinese business alliance to dump or smuggle all kinds of commercial goods to the European continent, and Austria and other countries behind it could only stare dryly. Queen Theresia's most important thing after the War of the Austrian Succession. Not to recover Silesia, but to stabilize the domestic economy, so that the goods from the East would not take away the few gold coins left in her treasury.

With this strong wind, the rising beacon fire in the European continent is also constantly cooling down. …,

But the inertia of continental European history was too great, the cold tide from the east was blowing only on the side, and the war was not stifled, but only postponed.

Relative to the threat of the East. The newly rising Prussia was a mortal threat to Austria, which wore the skin of the HRE Empire, and to the old order of the entire European continent. Prime Minister Kaunitz, a diplomatic hero under Queen Theresia, organized the "Reversal Alliance" and pulled almost the entire European continent to Austria's side. An alliance was formed against Prussia.

British Prime Minister Pitt the Elder, based on his natural vigilance against France and his desire to retain the Kingdom of Britain's ownership of Hanover, formed a defensive alliance with Prussia, which was colliding with the anti-Prussian alliance raised by Kaunitz. In the second half of 1759, Britain began to waver in its attitude when it found itself in danger of being dragged onto a pirate ship by Prussia and making itself hostile to the whole of Europe.

Frederick II was desperate and in desperation, in September 1759 he sent troops into Saxony, which had joined the anti-Prussian coalition. War broke out.

The Anglo-Chinese Vice-House of Europe was not out of the equation, and in fact the Anglo-Chinese relations with Prussia were very close before the war, and the two sides signed a treaty of friendship and mutual assistance after the end of the War of the Austrian Succession. Supporting Prussia, a newly rising landlocked country, in order to break the old European order, is the "European policy" that every student of the General Affairs College will talk about in his graduation strategy.

Transit through the Netherlands. Trade with Prussia, and even small-scale military cooperation, had been paved for many years. The reason why Frederick dared to make a desperate gamble was that he could not ask for a war loan from Britain, and Seris was willing to give it, of course, these loans had to be used to buy military supplies provided by Seris, and the Prussian army that he urgently expanded, everyone wore military uniforms, all of which were "MadeinSeres", and the rifles used by the garrison were all old smoothbore rifles from Ceris forty years ago.

In addition to giving money and supplies, Seris went into battle shirtless, claiming to fulfill the Treaty of Friendship and Mutual Assistance between Cyprus and Prussia and send troops to the European continent.

At that time, most of the members of the anti-Prussian alliance thought that Seris was just posturing, Louis XV of France thought that Seris was trying to force him to completely abandon Indian interests, and Austria thought that it was trying to force European countries to conclude a free trade agreement and allow Seris goods to pass through Europe. They can do what they say! ”

Russia is retreating in Central Asia, Siberia is almost lost, and it is facing the dilemma of Cyris and Ottoman joining hands under its belly, and of course he hates Seris to the core.

In fact, Russia is just a gesture when she says this, and the real plan of the Tsar Elizabeth is to elevate this anti-Prussian alliance to an anti-Prussian alliance, and she does not think that the Seris have the courage and ability to send troops to Europe.

However, it was not until February 1760, when the battleships and troop transports from Seris landed in the Netherlands, that the anti-Prussian allies were dumbfounded. They finally recognized a serious problem: Seris had the courage and ability to come! And the reason why he has the courage and ability is that Seris is in the same league as Britain! They faced not isolated Prussia, not even the C-Prussian League, but the Grand League of C-Prussia and Britain.

The door to the world is opened......

"Yue, live well, we Prussia never want to see a general like you die for Prussia."

On the battlefield of Neuten, Frederick admonished Yue Jingzhong earnestly.

"I am a soldier, the battlefield is the destination, and I am nothing, our Royal Highness the prince is still fighting side by side with Britain at sea."

Yue Jingzhong replied, Anglo-Chinese interference in European affairs, not only sent the Red Army, but also sent a fleet, and it was the admiral and the prince Li Keming who led this fleet.

Frederick had already set up a battle strategy, and at this time his mind was very relaxed, and he asked Yue Jingzhong: "Why does Seris want to help us Prussia, Voltaire answered this question, but I want to hear what you think?" ”

Yue Jingzhong smiled slightly: "This is a long story, if Your Majesty really wants to hear it, I will be happy to tell you carefully at the post-war celebration banquet." ”

Frederick's eyes flashed: "I also understand, your Imperial Majesty is almost my teacher......"

He looked up at the sky and sighed, "I really want to go to the East, to Seris, to meet him, to listen to his teachings face to face." (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
