C272 New Army South

"Good boy, this is Europe's railways and trains? Previously, when he had scanned the area from afar, he hadn't realized that this fellow was so big! "Look at how big of a boiler is inside this white smoke?"

"That's right! How much firewood would it take to burn to such an extent!"

"Fuck you, you've lost all your face in Europa. Is your train burning firewood?" "People only burn refined coal, that's the strong way!"

"Scram to the side, you don't understand my sarcasm!" But then again, why was the industrial force so powerful? Just how much money did it cost to pave the way for someone? Furthermore, even if we are rich, is it really that difficult to build so many railway tracks? "

In the middle of the night, in front of a freight station platform at hamburger Station, three hundred New Army soldiers were gathered there. They were looking at the huge locomotive as it slowly drove towards them.

The New Army were not bumpkins, they had long known from the Journey to the West what trains and railways were. They also knew that these things were definitely the blood vessels of industry, and that these things were indispensable to any country's industrialization process.

However, no matter how well the book was written, it did not have the intense feeling of shock that came from seeing it with one's own eyes. When the smoking steel monster slowly came to a stop in front of everyone, they all had a feeling that they couldn't defeat it.

Xiao Hexin had struck out today with a wound. In the explosion three days ago, he and the rest of the fifty odd brothers did not manage to hide behind the fortifications in time. Fortunately, the wreckage of the building behind them blocked most of the shock waves, so it did not cause any serious damage.

Most of the brothers had impaired hearing, some had mild concussions, and most of them were burned. Fortunately, with the blessing of the ancestors, not a single person from the new army was left behind, and neither death nor disability appeared.

Hearing his brothers' mutterings, Xiao Hexin suddenly got angry, and started swearing in a low voice, "All of you, shut up! Have you forgotten the discipline of the new army? Or have all of you become heroes in the past few days? Your lordship was humiliated in France, and you still have the heart to talk about trains? "

"Who's talking nonsense anymore, scram back to the hospital, I don't want this mission anymore!"

Xiao Hexin's reprimand made all the brothers present stick their tongues out, the entire group was filled with killing intent. Just then, Jonas, the liaison officer of the New Army, as well as the freelance author Lei Ao ran over like the wind.

"Mr Xiao, please wait a moment, just now, Prime Minister Bismark sent a message, I hope that you and those injured soldiers can continue to receive treatment. Also, please think about it, believe in the strength of us Prussian soldiers, we will do our best to save Prime Minister …"

Xiao Hexin didn't even need to think about it. He shook his head and said, "Don't persuade us anymore, our choice is not only because we are all troops formed by the Prime Minister, not only because of the kindness between us, but also because we believe in the Prime Minister's plan. He has never let us down!"

"Master, in the telegram, he said it very clearly. Right now, all the eyes of the French are on the Prussian Army, and all the Prussian Army at the border between the two countries have already been monitored by the French. Even platoon level military movement cannot escape their eyes, how can you guarantee that you will be able to catch them off guard?"

"Let us Chinese go. The French would never think that the Chinese Army would dare to invade their territory to fight in France. Their intelligence network is simply unable to do anything to us. Only we can catch them unawares! "

Jonas was no longer able to persuade them otherwise. She nodded her head, "Just now, I was trying to advise you two on behalf of Prime Minister Bismark. Since you two insist, then I will pass on the latest order from General Staff to you two. "Remember, this is top secret!"

After saying that, Jonas brought Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun and the other high-ranking officers to a warehouse at the train station and said softly, "General Staff, to confuse the French army, we have already formulated a set of plans for the transfer of troops. The two divisions stationed at the southern lines urgently need to mobilize the troops of the four battalions, and begin to change their defenses."

Under Jonas's introduction, Xiao Hexin and the others finally understood the sincerity of the Prussian. In the plan, the four battalions would use the company as the basic unit to shift and defend, trying to confuse the Intelligence as much as possible.

Not only that, but these armies would also be closing in on the four southern states of the Prussian Kingdom. Baden, the Hesse, Württemberg and the Bavaria would be directly threatened by the Prussian Army.

At this time, the German Nationality was still surrounded by the city's States. The states all had their own lords and armies, and the four southern states had always been very close to France, where they had always been anti-Prussian pawns.

France's most important subordinate had been threatened, which would definitely attract the attention of the entire Government of France, to the point of even getting fired.

"The Besanthus is very close to the border of the Switzerland, Basel, and it's only about 60 kilometers away. I don't know about the record for you Chinese to forcibly march, but we Prussians have recorded that we would be able to maintain a speed of 5 kilometers per hour for 12 hours. I think 1 night's forced march is enough for you to rescue the Prime Minister …"

After Xiao Hexin and the others finished listening to Jonas's report, they saluted him with serious expressions. "Please help us convey our thanks to Prime Minister, for the next mission is up to us!"

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to convey it. Leo and I will be travelling together with you. Don't forget that I'm still your interpreter." Xiao Hexin and the others stretched out their hands and grabbed Jonas's shoulders, then shook them tightly. It was enough to pat her shoulder as a man doesn't need to use words to express their friendship.

In the pitch black night, the citizens of hamburger didn't know that their three hundred benefactors had already silently boarded the carriage. After the iron gate was closed, the Chinese Army began to head south.

All of the military officers sat around as they listened to Jonas's analysis of the terrain and the situation of the Frenchmen's garrison troops. One after another, the plans were taken out, and then overturned, with the aim of changing the plan again and again to perfection.

The ordinary soldiers did not participate in the debate. Some of them were squinting their eyes in preparation for the upcoming battle. Some of them were disassembling some parts of their rifles while others were merely leaning their heads against the cracks of the carriage to look out at the dark and exotic scenery outside.

Just as the train headed south, in a high-end restaurant in the faraway center of Besanthus, a row of bizarre guests arrived. As they entered, all the customers and waiters in the restaurant were dumbfounded.

Today, he had changed into a black suit with a snow-white bow tie around his neck. With a smile on his face, he allowed the waiter to receive the reserved seats.

Xiao Letian, King Yi, Dragon Lord, Paul and that shameless Pierre who followed over. The five of them sat at a table, while Hu Niu, A Chou, Ping Er and Fang Guan took up another table. Before Xiao Letian, the host of the treat, could say anything, Pierre, this shameless guy, had actually spoken first.

"Hei Nuobi, we want four bottles of 20-year-old Hei Nuobi. Please don't tell me you don't have any here, you are the tallest restaurant in Besanthus, please don't disappoint the guests in the distance …"

Hanobi was the most famous red wine in the Burgundy wine area. After more than 20 years, it was the finest wine that could be served at a noble's table.

The waiter looked at these eastern faces and was a little dumbfounded. He really did not expect that the guest at the reserved table in the evening would be an Asian. The waiter foolishly asked, "China?"

This was too impolite. The most important part of the French cuisine was etiquette. As a waiter, instead of entertaining guests, he actually inquired about the background of the customers. If news of this got out, it would greatly affect the restaurant.

However, today, not a single customer berated the waiter for his rudeness, as they all had the same question in their hearts. When Pierre frowned and nodded, the restaurant was filled with whispers.

"Oh my god!" Chinese? It was the Chinese people who had been burned down in the palace! "Oh, the meal today was really a disappointment …"

"No no no, you're wrong, don't all Chinese have long braids? Look at these people with short hair, they have European hair... "

"My God, yes. The suits they wore were the handiwork of Besanthus's best tailor shop. My eyes are extremely sharp, I definitely won't make a mistake … "

The restaurant was filled with discussions, and these Chinese people had attracted everyone's attention. At this time, the French people were very arrogant, and looked down on the recently defeated China from the bottom of their hearts. Some customers even stood up to express their dissatisfaction towards the restaurant owner.

Fortunately, the situation did not escalate further. Perhaps Xiao Letian's European style of dressing had brought the mental distance between the two parties closer, or perhaps the unique aura of a superior from Xiao Letian's body had influenced these Frenchmen. In any case, the conflict did not escalate.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the supply of 20-year-old Black Nuo is limited compared to our store. The price is very expensive …" The owner of the restaurant had replaced the disrespectful waiter and had personally come to receive these Oriental guests. He was very suspicious of the wealth of these Oriental people.

Xiao Letian heaved a long sigh and said to Pierre, "I always thought that France was the most ceremonial country in Europe, but looking at it today, it really disappointed me. I am already a bit pessimistic about the upcoming trip to Paris... Dragon Lord, give him the money, and let him see our wealth … "

With a "pa da" sound, a bag filled with Gold franc was placed on the table. The bag was loose, revealing the light of money. This bag had around 300-400 pieces of money.

"Sir, may I ask if this money is enough for our expenses? If not, we still have …" Before Xiao Letian could finish her words, Dragon Lord very obediently threw out another two bags. This time, the restaurant owner was already sweating profusely.

"I'm sorry, gentlemen. I apologize for my rudeness. I will prepare it for you right away …"

When the wine was poured into the decanter, the aroma of grapes filled the entire restaurant. Even the arrogant French people couldn't help but twitch their noses.

"Come, let us celebrate this wondrous trip to Europe. Hopefully, the Government of France will not disappoint us …" Hey hey hey! Pierre, why are you drinking so fast? I haven't even finished my toast yet … "

How could Pierre drink such expensive wine in the past? It was so easy to catch an Eastern tycoon today, wouldn't it be a shame if he didn't ruthlessly cut him down?

But you just f * cking drank Xiao Letian's wine, why are you flirting with other people's women? Pierre, this large nose actually raised her wine cup and toasted to Ping Er and Fang Guan who were sitting on the next table.

This pair of peach blossom eyes was too annoying, Hu Niu subconsciously wanted to grab the gun in her bag. Yes, you did not see wrongly. Other women had makeup and mirrors in their hands, but Hu Niu had a Colt gun.

Hu Niu did not take out her gun because Pierre was already afraid of this ferocious woman. When she saw the look in her eyes, she immediately retreated back into his seat and quickly drank to calm herself down.
