C2692 Who was lying?

Who is lying?

It was impossible for the same army to appear in the east and also in the west at the same time. It was not like the Prussian army was a heavenly soldier, it was not like they could fly.

The entire border of France and Germany was in the shape of a huge number 7. Although the east side was not suitable for soldiers due to the obstruction from the Rhine, the vital bridges and crossings still had to be defended.

Rhine had to leave behind at least thirty to forty thousand people to defend!

The most important part of the battlefield was the northern border. At the border of over three hundred kilometers, there were more than ten places that could be broken through. The Salbrucon and Walter were merely the two of the two most well-located places to break through.

The remaining dozen or so strategic locations had to be heavily defended. This was because the France was in charge of the offense, while Prussia was in charge!

According to the experience of the France and the other high-ranking officers, one of the main defenses had to defend and defend every important path since it was impossible to accurately judge the enemy's strategy of using troops.

After some initial calculations, if they wanted to completely defend against the three hundred kilometer border, the two hundred thousand strong army was the lowest number. After all, the France's army was that strong!

At least, that's what the French generals thought!

Since it was so, then it should be simple. Prussia had a total of three hundred thousand soldiers at the border, and the remaining one hundred thousand would be the main attack direction of the Prussian.

Wherever that one hundred thousand people appeared, there would be a weakness in other areas that could be overcome!

It sounded like a reasonable analysis, no different from what was taught in the military academy textbooks. The emperor, the marshal and the generals all believed it without a doubt.

However, the current situation had given them a resounding slap in the face!

How could the western front of the Salbrucon and the eastern front of Walter have a huge army of a hundred thousand troops? Could the Prussian have mobilized more than four hundred thousand troops?

"Impossible!" It's absolutely impossible. Our powerful France has only mobilized 250,000 people, would Prussia be able to gather more than double our strength? " French Emperor paced back and forth angrily in the meeting room.

"There must be a lie! If it's not you, Flosad, then it's you! How could a huge army of a hundred thousand appear on both sides? "A dereliction of duty, this is a dereliction of duty and treason!"

"I'm going to shoot you, shoot you!"

French Emperor was going crazy, at this time, Flosad did not care about the feelings of comrades, you cannot die, fellow dao friend!

He stood up, ran to His Majesty, and knelt on the ground with a thump, "Your Majesty!" "I swear in the name of God, I am not lying, I am facing an army of over a hundred thousand men!"

"Your Majesty, you are wise. You can understand the situation of the battlefield from a glance. The ten thousand plus people of the Salbrucon did not surrender even under the siege of my forty thousand strong army …"

"Why is that? It's all because they know that there's an army hiding behind them, that's why their morale is so high! "

"Now I understand, when I destroyed the railway bridge, I was only deceiving them for moving forward due to greed! They want to eat me whole! "

"Luckily I escaped quickly and promptly retreated back to the Spicillin's plateau, or my Second Army would have been completely annihilated …"

Speaking to here, Flosad actually grabbed onto Napoleon III's leg. "Your Majesty! I only withdrew after hearing of Walter's defeat! I am not the first to retreat! "

"There's really nothing I can do about it. If I don't, my Second Army will become the most prominent outpost of the entire front line. When that happens, we will definitely be surrounded by enemies!"

"Then why didn't you defend Spicillin's plateau to the death? You have over 30,000 elites! " Marshal Ba Zan roared at the side.

On the surface, it looked like Marshal Ba Zan was cursing his own subordinates, but anyone with discerning eyes would understand that this was a reminder for Flosad.

Marshal Ba Zan's subtext was, "You bastard, stop talking about Salbrucon. Right now, your sins are mainly concentrated in Spicillin's plateau! You have to explain this problem clearly before you can pass! '

Listen to me! At this moment, Flosad's life was in danger and his mind was extremely bright. He wiped away his tears and said: "Your Majesty, do you know who I met in Spicillin's plateau?"

"I met Xiao Letian! He personally led his personal guards and climbed up the cliff to ambush my headquarters! "

"No one would have thought that he had such an elite army that pierced through my castle like a sharp knife! After a long and bitter night of battle, I really did not expect Xiao Letian to actually appear! "

"What?" Xiao Letian? personally attack your host? " French Emperor's eyes widened to the size of eggs.

All the officers present could not believe their own ears. Marshal Ba Zan stood up, pointed at his subordinates and scolded, "Are you talking about a fantasy story? What kind of status did Xiao Letian have to do this? Does he risk his life as a soldier? "

Flosad said in a sobbing tone, "I know you don't believe it! I know you guys don't believe me... I brought Ke Lisituofu from Queen's cavalry with me! You must believe his words! "

Ou Renni was a famous elite guard, of course Ke Lisituofu's words were trustworthy! As soon as this regiment commander entered the meeting room, reeking of smoke, he saw the look in the commander's eyes as if to save her life.

"Ke Lisituofu, tell your majesty, was it Xiao Letian that appeared last night? Say it quickly! "

Ke Lisituofu took off his hat and knelt down on one knee before the emperor, "Your majesty, your loyal knight has returned! I declare to you, with the dignity of a knight, that everything I say is true! "

"Night battles are chaotic, we did not personally see Xiao Letian's face, but I am sure that the one who ambushed our castle was him!"

"That crazy man, he actually pulled the bell of the bell in the heart of the thirty thousand strong army arrogantly. He is issuing the offensive command to the Prussian army at the foot of the mountain!"

"This man is using his own life to boost Prussian army's morale. At that moment, all of the ten thousand Prussian down the mountain went crazy. They are just like the Germans back then. They are unstoppable and crazy!"

"Furthermore, the fireworks released by the clock tower are not something that we European craftsmen can forge. The red fireworks can actually burst into a blood-red rose in the sky!"

"It's really amazing! Other than the person with the highest level, I think no one else would have the qualifications to do so! "

"More importantly, after the multi-signal detonator exploded, three to four hundred signal detonators appeared in the north-east. The entire north-east was lit up!"

"Without the size of a hundred thousand men, how could there be such a large-scale signal flare?"

"Without the protection of the huge army of 100,000, how could Xiao Letian take such a risk without fear?"

"Your Majesty, he is the leader of the Hua Clan. Where is he?" How could it not be where the main force is located? "

's words shocked everyone present. He sat down on a chair and said, "So … Was McMahon lying? He lied to me? "
