18th century total war

Chapter 107 Two completely different fronts

"In just half a day and one night, we gained five more Glory Points and one more Construction Point, and won a normal victory and a big victory respectively.

It seems that in addition to launching a night attack on Karl's side, there was also a big battle in the morning.

In such a short period of time, it is impossible for Karl, who just won the victory, to launch offensives one after another. In other words, the defenders of Caen City, who were defeated in the night battle, took the initiative to launch a large-scale counterattack?

Moreover, a considerable amount of troops was invested, otherwise Karl would not be given a great victory evaluation beyond the ordinary victory of the night battle.

It's a pity that the battles that broke out on the southern border of the Brittany region guarded by the second division were too sporadic, and the attacking enemy army was small and weak. They won many battles, but even the most basic victory evaluation was not No trigger..."

Li Wei in Rennes, looking at the updated data of the total war system, thought silently.

Now Levi has roughly figured out the basic conditions for the Total War system to obtain glory points and building points.

It must be a big battle and one's own side is weak.

This weakness does not only refer to the strength of troops, but also refers to the level of training of the enemy army, the proportion of elite veterans, weapons and equipment, offensive and defensive geographical situation and many other factors.

Of course, the weak water attack of the provincial coalition forces in the Loire region (soldiers and officials are afraid of death), even if the second division repelled their countless offensives, there is no way to trigger a system reward.

Who said that on the southern border of the Brittany region, Li Wei's Black Dragon Legion did not have many disadvantages, and was still in a safe fortification?

Of course, on the battlefield on the southern border of the Brittany region, the casualties of Li Wei's Black Dragon Legion were also pitifully low, or the casualties of both sides were very few.

The southern border war zone often fights for ten days and a half months, and Li Wei's black dragon army will only die two or three people...

Of course, the total number of casualties of the coalition forces in the Loire River Province who were responsible for the attack on the opposite side would not exceed three digits. You must know that they were attacking the defense line stationed by the Guards Infantry with excellent marksmanship!
After ten days and a half months of fighting, the number of casualties on both sides was only so small, and there was no comparison with the front that Karl was in charge of.

The disparity in casualties between the two fronts is naturally due to the different subjective capabilities of the two sides fighting on the two fronts.

The provincial coalition forces in the Loire region are no longer interested in attacking the defense line garrisoned by the famous Black Dragon Legion in the Brittany region.

From the general to the pawn, they are extremely tired of this kind of battle!

If it weren't for too much pressure from the Paris government, the two sides would not be able to fight at all.

This involves the issue of local militarism in the current revolutionary regime in Paris.

After the original upper class of the Kingdom of France was smashed, the Paris government and many places in the Legislative Assembly continued to use the original management method, and most of the military generals and officials were not dismissed.

This makes the energy of the French nobles in the army still very high.

Due to the rise of Livy, a plenipotentiary speaker appeared in the regions near the Brittany region. While various provinces began to form local provincial armies, aristocratic officers with considerable influence in the army in various places naturally took advantage of this The "dongfeng" pulled up his own team.

When these teams gathered in the hands of the plenipotentiary speaker of the Loire region, they began to attack the Brittany region.

The leaders of these provincial coalition forces, which already have the nature of some private soldiers, naturally don't want to consume too much strength to fight a war with no hope of victory.

Coupled with the fact that most of the nobles and generals have a very bad impression of the Paris government, it is even more positive and negative, so it appears that on the southern border front of the Brittany region, the total strength of the provincial coalition forces in the Loire region is obviously much higher than that of the French government. The Black Dragon Legion in the line of defense turned the war into a child's play.

And the Black Dragon Legion, which is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength and unable to take the initiative to attack, is naturally happy to see this kind of low-intensity war that can be won steadily, so Li Wei has no way to obtain the system glory value income of the all-out war.

Obviously, the total war system is a relatively rigorous system, and it is difficult to earn 'glory points' in this kind of low-intensity war like playing house.

Therefore, the regime established by Li Wei has fought a civil war with the Paris government for so many days, and only Karna has provided glory points along the way, and is still touching the bottom line of those military leaders in the Normandy region, and is preparing to take the Normandy region into their pockets. Only then did they meet with tenacious resistance.

The defenders in the Normandy region fought more desperately than the provincial coalition forces in the Loire region, mainly because Caen, the capital city of the Normandy region, was about to fall.

The initiative of combat is naturally much stronger than that of the Loire region.

After all, the provincial coalition forces in the Loire region were defeated, and it was a big deal to go home to sleep, but the defense of Caen in the Normandy region was defeated, and their home belonged to Levi!
Unless they are really willing to be Li Wei's dog, how dare the top and bottom military leaders in the Normandy region not work hard?

Is it true that the provincial coalition forces in the Normandy region will explode with all their fighting power when Cenavier says a word?
The provincial coalition forces in the Normandy region worked so hard, the biggest reason was Li Wei's power cake extended to the upper class in the Normandy region.

Just like the current General Kanol, he knew that the chances of winning were not high, but he still tried to do everything possible to regain the second line of defense and stop the successive defeats, just for the benefit of the family behind him!

Li Wei's regime represented the interests of the traditional aristocracy (the Charles family was a traditional feudal aristocracy and did not become a capitalist), not the interests of the liberal aristocracy.

With the strength shown by the Li Wei regime, once the Normandy region falls, [-]% of the industry behind Canol's family will be annexed by the Wallace Business Alliance under Li Wei's rule!
Under the threat of guns, no matter how good your business skills are, you are still a grandson.

Therefore, these liberal aristocrats have a high determination to fight against Li Wei, which is only stronger than other capitalists.

Moreover, the liberal aristocrats are different from pure capitalists. They have the same powerful influence in the army as the traditional feudal aristocracy, and they took advantage of the Paris Revolution to stabilize the traditional feudal aristocracy.

As a result, the liberal aristocrats in the Normandy region don't want Li Wei to come to power!
In the Brittany region under Li Wei's rule, the capital industry has basically been monopolized by the Wallace business alliance, and only the downstream primitive agricultural production (commonly known as farming) is controlled by various feudal lords and nobles.

However, how can there be capital to make money in farming?
It's just that the traditional feudal nobles who took refuge in Li Wei were old stubborns with rusty brains (otherwise they wouldn't have been defeated by the liberal nobles), so they were satisfied with the fields Li Wei entrusted to them.
