Iron Dynasty - Chapter 1166

Venice.

Franz came here after the imperial army arrived. When he saw imperial soldiers armed to the teeth, his gloomy mood suddenly improved.

“Your Majesty Franz, this is Ye Qingyun, commander of the Southwest Military Region, one of the six major military regions of the Empire.” Lu Jun introduced to Franz.

The situation in Europe deteriorated in an instant, so Ye Qingyun was dispatched to Suez City to take charge of European affairs temporarily.

After all, with the empires deployment of troops all over the world, the jurisdiction of the six military regions can no longer be confined to the country, but to look globally.

“Commander Ye, I am very happy that you can come to Austria.” Franz was a little surprised. After signing the agreement with the empire, he made up for the situation of the empire and knew very well the weight of the military commander.

Only from this point was enough to see that the Empire attached great importance to Austria, which made him very happy.

“It is the responsibility of the empire to protect the allies, and of course it is my responsibility.” Ye Qingyun smiled. Lu Jun is a member of the Southwest Military Region. Because of this, he was ordered to come here personally to direct the war.

He was already idle in the country and came here by boat as soon as he got the order. At the same time, he took 36 of the tanks just equipped by the Southwest Army and brought it here.

These tanks are now being hoisted from the transport ship.

Ye Qingyun’s words made Franz even more determined. He said: “The situation in Austria is urgent now. I hope Commander Ye can help.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyun’s expression became serious. He said: “In this case, I hope that your Majesty will tell us the current situation in Austria and the specific situation of the war zone. There are only 8,000 troops in the first batch of landing troops. I will lead these eight. Thousands of people prevented the advancement of France and Prussia, and follow-up reinforcements from the Empire will arrive one after another until all our enemies are driven out of Austria.”

After a pause, Ye Qingyun continued: “But this battle involves cooperation between the Austrian and imperial armies. I hope that your majesty can send troops to join us in a running-in exercise during this period, and then hand over the command of the battlefield to us. .”

Franz was taken aback. The command of the army is a very sensitive matter, but he gritted his teeth and nodded when he thought of the crisis that Austria was facing.

In order to appease Franz, Ye Qingyun deliberately led Franz to visit the equipment of the Empire.

After seeing things like machine guns, mortars, tanks, and troop carriers, Franz showed a deep smile on his face.

In his opinion, they have hope of victory in this war.

In the next six days, Ye Qingyun and Lu Jun were not idle. They divided their forces and went all the way north to fight Prussia and all the way west to fight France.

At the same time, they mastered the temporary command of the Austrian army on the battlefield, and used six days to complete the cooperation exercise between the two armies.

In Article 7, Ye Qingyun led four thousand imperial soldiers to personally go north to deal with Henry’s French army.

He was very interested in this French army, which only used imperial equipment, and was battle-tested.

…

Paris.

When Henry learned that the imperial army had landed in Venice, his face changed drastically. From the beginning he did not believe that the imperial army would really help the absolutely weak Austria, but now facts have proved everything.

And facing the Haikou he boasted, he couldn’t hold back now.

After a brief hesitation, he immediately ordered the frontline army to immediately select a backup officer. Once the main officer was shot, the backup officer would immediately go up, so that the army would not be confused after losing the officer.

Henry made this decision because he considered the existence of imperial snipers, and he saw the power of imperial snipers in the war to unify France.

It is conceivable that it is now his turn to face these terrible battlefields. “Really should keep those three snipers.” Henry regretted it. After Austria withdrew, the three snipers of the Empire left. At that time, he had not turned his face with the Empire.

At the same time, Ferrier II received the news soon, and after a slight astonishment, Ferrier II also did not choose to retreat.

Like Henry, now that they have been tied to a chariot, this contest with the empire must be fought.

…

Vaduz.

After leaving Venice, Ye Qingyun came to the front line of the war after a day’s trek.

When the imperial soldiers arrived in the trench-filled battlefield in green-painted military transport vehicles, the entire Austrian army boiled.

They have learned that the country and the empire have signed an agreement, so they are psychologically prepared for the arrival of the imperial army.

Ye Qingyun got down from his jeep and waved to the Austrian soldiers in the trenches, and along with him was Franz’s eldest son Obina.

The 24-year-old Austrian prince insisted on coming to the front with Ye Qingyun and cooperating with Ye Qingyun’s command of the Austrian army.

After getting out of the car, Obina immediately summoned the officers to meet with Ye Qingyun and announced Franz’s decision.

“There are still 60,000 Austrian soldiers here. Vaduz is our extremely important city. If it is occupied by France, Vienna will be directly threatened by France.” Obina introduced to Ye Qingyun.

Ye Qingyun nodded. He had a good sense for Obina, a humble young man. They arrived here first this time. The follow-up Austrian reinforcements of 40,000 are still on the way. It is estimated that it will take three days to arrive.

In order to prevent the collapse of Vaduz’s battle line, he arrived here early.

Facing a two-line battlefield, although Austria’s strong national strength was a little overwhelming, through Ye Qingyun’s understanding, now the veterans of the Austrian front line suffered a lot and they were all on the front line.

Follow-ups are only recruits~~ The 40,000 people supported this time are recruits.

“With me, Vaduz’s line of defense is as solid as a rock.” Ye Qingyun was very confident.

After all, he immediately let the machine gunner enter the trenches and build machine gun positions in the trenches.

Most of the empire’s support materials for France were rifles, and artillery was also a direct-fire cannon, but with the bombs, the power was not small.

Therefore, these artillery pieces are the real threat to them on the battlefield. As long as they destroy the enemy’s artillery, their pressure will be much less.

The best target to suppress this direct-fire gun is undoubtedly the sniper. After all, the empires sniper rifle has a long range and can restrain the enemys artillery. So he ordered the sniper to enter the battlefield to find a suitable shooting point to kill the artillery of the French army.

Of course, this is not the big killer this time, the 36-liang tank is his weapon for breaking through the French army this time.

For him, offense is the best defense, and he doesn’t bother to squat in the trenches and consume time.
