C338 The Struggle for Order

A distance of forty kilometers, that was the equivalent of the distance between Beijing and the Langfang, and perhaps even less.

For an army, 40 kilometers was equivalent to around 4 to 5 hours of normal march time. With the addition of artillery, they would be able to reach there within 6 hours.

If Crown Prince Karl's Second Corps received Lao Maoqi's order to transfer troops early in the morning, the entire army would definitely be able to reach the battlefield in the morning. If the most elite cavalry regiment left their ranks and charged forward, they would probably be able to reach the battlefield by 9 o'clock.

It was a pity that most of the problems in the war were not simple math problems. A short forty kilometers was just a small section on the map, but in front of humans, it was a huge obstacle that could obstruct one's vision.

Second Corps did not have Clairvoyant and Clairaudient, they could not see the explosion at a distance of forty kilometers, nor could they hear the rain of gunshots. Maybe they were still following their original plans and slowly cleaning up their camp, preparing to get closer to the main forces.

"There's no time to waste, I'm sure that all the cavalry and line maintenance engineers sent out by the headquarters have been killed by the enemies. Right now, Prince Karl doesn't even know that the war has already begun … …" It might even be possible that the Austrian Army had set up an ambush on the only path they could take, and was waiting for us to deliver ourselves to your doorstep … "

With a boom, all the Chinese and Prussian officers present burst into an uproar. Immediately after, Jonas who was representing the other Prussian officers opened her mouth.

"Sir, what do we do now? Would it be too late to notify the headquarters now? "I ask for your order, sir. We need to immediately ask for reinforcements. We need to break through this lifeline …"

Prussian started talking all at once, Jonas translated anxiously for Xiao Letian, but what she got in return was Xiao Letian shaking his head.

"No, no, no, there is no time, and our soldiers on the battlefield are smaller than the Austrian Army, do you think that there will be more reserviors for us? "That's impossible …"

After he finished speaking, Xiao Letian suddenly pointed at a point on the map. "This is the nameless stone bridge, on the west side of the bridge is a gentle slope, it should be the surrounding topography here, and the area is enough for us two battalions to activate our strength …"

"Luo Huo! You will lead the cavalry company and quickly advance towards the west, using the fastest speed possible to deliver the military order to Prince Karl, Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun! "The rest of the infantry legion immediately rushed to the Shiqiao uplands, using the fastest speed they could muster to prepare their defenses."

"Yes, my lord!" None of the Asian officers hesitated to salute immediately, but at that moment all the Prussian officers hesitated.

A group of officers surrounded Jonas and muttered to him for a long time. Then, Jonas frowned and said, "Respected Prime Minister, our Prussian soldier has a disagreement, I hope you can consult …"

Jonas let out a long sigh, as if she had made a great decision: "I'm sorry Prime Minister, we refuse to accept such an order. The order General Command gave us was just to send a message to repair the route, we don't have any right to stop you …"

At this time, Jonas cleared her throat, sorted out the opinions of the officers of Prussian army, and started to lay down the truth in front of Xiao Letian.

"Prime Minister, I hope you can understand our considerations, modern war is already a strict science, this isn't an era where victory can be won just by relying on hot-bloodedness. Perhaps you think that by using a cavity of blood to stimulate the soldiers' momentum, you can reverse the situation by winning a few battles?"

"Unfortunately, this traditional way of thinking is out of place. "The war has already entered the era of the Iron Roar. No matter how much courage you have in your chest, you won't be able to block a high-speed bullet or even a cannonball filled with high explosive drugs …"

"Do you know how many cannons the Austria has? At least eight hundred. Do you know how powerful a volley of artillery can be? "Shrouding the skies and covering the earth, even Angels would not be able to resist this wave of slaughter …"

"Prime Minister, please be rational and take this war into consideration. General Staff has already drawn up all the battle plans, countless of senior staff officers calculated the food supply to every hour, and now in Prussian Kingdom, all the rail transport has been converted into military. All the roads are filled with horse carriages for the transportation of goods."

"The entire kingdom is operating at high speed like a sophisticated machine tool. Every single part has already obtained the mission they need to complete. In this war, every single soldier can receive their own task before the battle, and every single military officer will know the strategic intentions of their army. Even the logistics soldiers will know where they are going to deliver the canned meat and who they are going to hand it to today … "

"Countless train drivers know where their ammunition is sent to, countless Factory Owner s also know how many guns they need to produce. There are also the Bankers s of Berlin, hamburger and Hanover.

Jonas took a few deep breaths to calm her emotions, "My dear Prime Minister, for Prussian Kingdom to be able to reach this far, from a weak States, to be able to fight against a strong Austria, and to be able to make the veteran powerful France not dare to be careless, what is she relying on?"

"It depends on our rigor, on the precision and order of all the citizens in the country. Yes, there is only one secret to our success, and that is order. What we in Prussia need is order …"

"Prime Minister, do you know how much of a change it would have caused to the whole battle if you had acted without any orders? And this change would have been magnified to the point where you would have changed the condition of our front and affected the progress of other armies. "No, no, no. This uncontrollable change is really too frightening. This is definitely a disaster …"

Xiao Letian and his brothers were already dumbstruck by what they heard. They seemed to only now understand how strict and strict the Prussia people were. This person had been tempered into an emotionless part.

Yeah, why is Lao Maoqi so unfriendly to me? You have to know that we won against the French cavalry camp and even saved orphans in the hamburger.

There were also these officers of the Prussian army. Although they grumbled a little, they would never lower themselves to carry out orders in the training grounds. They would be able to endure for as long as they were asked to, but at that time, they never thought that they would disobey.

This race's fanatical worship of order was something that Xiao Letian and his subordinates could not imagine. It was possible that the hundred years of military service had caused this nation to become perverted, as their eyes could not tolerate even the slightest act of breaking order.

In their hearts, military orders, laws, and the morality of the Church of God were the building blocks of order that could never be broken. For example, Prussian army who was currently caught in a bitter battle was still fighting on even after receiving a pincer attack from two legions.

Why did this happen? Why didn't they have any intention of retreating? It's not because they're the war maniacs in the sky. What they actually think is very simple. If the military order tells us to do this, we will do so. There is no room for negotiation.

The people would only forget how afraid they were of death if they could put themselves in an ice-cold, emotionless, steel part on the spot. Only this way would the Prussian be able to protect the order they wanted.

Xiao Letian let out a long sigh as he rubbed his temples. This race was too abnormal, they were definitely on par with the Japanese. No wonder these two races fought the fiercest during the second world war, just based on the strength of this single strand of muscle in their brain, it was truly an untouchable copper pea.

However, they could not be blamed for it. The Prussian General Staff had spent a whole ten years just to prepare this battle plan for the Poo War. In these ten years, countless people had devoted their efforts to winning this seven-week battle. Even without the help of a transcender like themselves, Prussia would still have won.

It was precisely his appearance that gave the other party such a grand strategy that produced countless of variables, so Lao Maoqi would rather leave the two Battalions next to his own headquarters than let Xiao Letian fight. It has to be known that the Prussian already detested unexpected variables to the extreme.

Now, these officers of the Hamburg recruit Camp were using their actions to express their dissatisfaction. To put it bluntly, they were similar to Lao Maoqi in their pursuit of order.

This had nothing to do with being afraid of death. They just wanted to tell Xiao Letian that breaking any rules at will was not right, and if all the military commanders were to fight as they pleased, then what kind of General Command would that be?

Xiao Letian laughed bitterly in his heart, if he was a normal Chinese person, they would probably listen to such pressure, right? But unfortunately, you didn't meet the same person today, oh... Pah pah pah, of course I'm alone, it's just that I'm a transmigrator, and the existence of transmigrators is to break the rules, isn't that so?

You want order? As long as I, Xiao Letian, am here, the order should be mine to decide.

Just as Xiao Letian was about to say something, the furious Luo Huo was the first one to not be able to hold back and shout, "Pu * * y! Coward... Are you newbies afraid of death? It's not like the Lord wants you to fight one against ten, you don't even dare to guard a high ground, you're just a bunch of useless trash! "

Although these Prussian army officers could not understand what Luo Huo was saying, they could tell from their expressions that this was not a good thing. This group of Northern European large nose were not to be trifled with either.

Jonas was so angry that her nose was crooked, "General Luo Huo, please take note of your words! "This is Europe, not your kingdom. There are no backward medieval infantry to command you. Soldiers here are not the personal property of military officers. They are not people you can scold casually …"

"Our Prussian has never relied on a moment of bravado to prove whether or not we are cowards. What we seek is the victory of our entire nation. "To put it bluntly, why did you Chinese people become like this? It's just that you have too many distracting thoughts and everyone has their own thoughts. If you lose order, what else can you do other than waste energy …"

F * ck me! Xiao Letian did not think that Jonas had the ability to harm others, this explanation truly hit the weak points of the Chinese people, their words were not wrong.

"Enough! Shut up … I, Xiao Letian, am the highest-ranking officer here! Nearly 200 thousand people are fighting behind us, and people are dying every minute and every second. And we're still fighting, aren't you ashamed of that? "
