18th century total war

Chapter 315 The Return
"Your Majesty, please ask me a little.

After returning to the Legion of Honor, I hope His Majesty will not send the French Defense Forces to join the battle against the Legion of Honor.

For one thing, after this disastrous defeat of the Legion of Honor, the French Defense Forces facing His Majesty are already terrified. Once the French Defense Forces appear on the battlefield, their subordinates will either fight or flee, and will be in a dilemma.

And once the two armies are at war, the lost French Defense Forces will also be His Majesty's troops, which will only increase internal friction.

And it is absolutely wrong for my subordinates to win the battle. If they lose, I will lose my reputation in the Legion of Honor and even in Greece, and my help to His Majesty will be greatly reduced.

Second, after I return to the Legion of Honor, I will not continue the previous plan. I will try my best to lead the Legion of Honor in Albania and other minority-inhabited areas, and pull away those young people who are dissatisfied with the Kingdom of Serbia. Return to Greece.

At that time, I can not only reduce the multi-ethnic conflicts in the Kingdom of Serbia, but also restore most of the strength of the Legion of Honor and return to Greece to fight for power.

As long as I can rise to the highest position of power in the Hellenic Republic, all of Greece will no longer be an enemy of Your Majesty.

As long as His Majesty's French Defense Forces don't intervene, I have a probability of more than [-]% to win the highest seat of power in the Greek Republic, and even change the current Greek Republic to a presidential system!
And after I become the president of Greece, I can naturally use policy influence to make Greece a helper for His Majesty instead of an enemy. "

"Aristotle, everything you said is based on your conjecture, and I will not doubt your reputation in Greece, but how do you get rid of the obstruction of the British?

The London government will not watch you lead Greece into the Holy League. "

After the Vatican became Li Wei's voice, Li Wei used the name of the Holy Alliance very conveniently. After all, the actions of the Li Wei government are difficult to occupy morality from any point of view, and they simply rely on unreasonable religious ideas to justify their own expansion.

Pius VII had already found an excuse for Li Wei to expand. Li Wei is the incarnation of an angel sent by God to solve the suffering of the people. He will completely unify the Europa Continent, so that the Europa Continent will no longer have to sink into the misery of war.

From then on, no matter what nationality or language people speak on the continent of Europa, they will all live in a common harmonious family and no longer have to kill each other!

The explanation given by the Vatican probably means this.

Under the public opinion propaganda under the control of Levi's government, many white foolish people really believed it!
It has to be said that in this era of ignorance and ignorance, religion's way of controlling people's hearts is more effective than universal education.

Due to the personal endorsement by the Pope of the Vatican, even Pius VII took great pains to occasionally take the cardinals to various vassal states and even France to preach and publicize.

Praise the greatness of Livy and praise Livy's contribution to the unification of the European continent!
Pius VII did not declare that the continent of Europe must be under the rule of the French, but changed the concept secretly, making Livy the master of all Europe, and any people who believe in God should submit to Livy. Ascension to heaven!
This kind of propaganda has little influence on the educated intellectuals and the powerful class, but it is undoubtedly an ideological bomb for the common people, especially those short-sighted farmers, who are almost convinced of the argument of Pius VII. No doubt!
Many extremely ignorant farmers even began to pray to Li Wei, the "angel incarnate" in the world...

Even after Li Wei conquered them, apart from keeping the farmers from starving to death (there is no middleman to earn the difference, not the tax relief of the Li Wei government), the other social environment has not changed much. He gradually returned to the Li Wei government.

If you use the terminology in the game to show, the loyalty value of the French mainland and various vassal states under the Li Wei government will increase slightly every month.

Because of this, the Livy government was either on the way to war or in the middle of a war. There were also various revolutionary organizations established with the support of the anti-French allies in the country, but there was still no reason for large-scale civil riots to break out.

It can be said that since taking control of the Vatican and the Church, the rear of the Li Wei government will only become more stable as time goes by.

This is what scares the Anti-French Alliance, because it means that if they cannot defeat the Li Wei government on the frontal battlefield, the Li Wei government can really unify the entire Europa continent and integrate Europe into a country that is more powerful than ancient Rome. But also a magnificent behemoth!

After all, ancient Rome did not completely conquer the Germanic region, let alone the Eastern European region where the Slavs lived!
But now, most of the Central European region where the Germanic people live has fallen into Li Wei's pocket.

Once the Kingdom of Prussia can't hold on, I'm afraid the entire Germanic nation will become Li Wei's servants!
As the London Government Times put it:

"The French have become Levy's warriors, the Italians have become Levi's farmers, and the Germans are becoming Levi's servants!"

Li Wei was naturally skeptical about the fighting power of the Italians. Who told the Italians to have an unexpectedly high reputation in the history of the world in his previous life?
Well, the pasta tastes really good!
Therefore, the Kingdom of Italy under Li Wei’s integration has always been in charge of logistics affairs. Even if the vassal army is organized, it is the smallest number of servant armies. Its main function is to maintain the safety of the rear communication lines.

On a slightly more dangerous front line, Li Wei did not dare to send Italian servants to garrison there, for fear that the Italian army would make a huge mess and become the captain of a luxurious transportation team...

Because of this, the Kingdom of Italy mobilized the least troops, and most Italians were diligently farming and producing food for the Livi government.

Of course, the proportion of French in the French Defense Forces is the highest, and the proportion of Germans in the slave army is the highest!

After hearing Li Wei's question, Aristotle considered his words before replying: "Your Majesty.

I know the Greeks, although many of them want to restore the glory of the Byzantine Empire in the past, but in fact the Greeks are not very keen on war.

If I can bring peace and a stable, independent Greek state, the Greeks will not be bent on following the London government.

After all, it is impossible for the British to drive the fleet to land, and the Greeks have little fear of the British army.

Moreover, with the series of defeats of the Greek regular army on the front line, the pro-British forces within the Greek Republic have been hit hard. If it weren't for those Greek politicians and generals who were not willing to part with the money from British Jewish capitalists, they might have knelt down on the ground. Your Majesty's feet beg for peace. "

"No, I will not accept a clown's peace, especially when the Greeks always want independence!"

Levi elaborated firmly.

Aristotle was not surprised by this answer. If it weren't for Li Wei's attitude, why would the Greeks go so hard?

The peace that the Greeks begged for was nothing more than wanting to retain their sovereign status, and this was precisely what Li Wei could not tolerate.

This is the meaning of Aristotle's existence. He can not only allow the Greeks to maintain an independent and sovereign state on the surface, but also allow the Greeks to become a booster for the Livy regime.

This is just like many countries in the 21st century, which are nominally sovereign countries, but in fact have been acting as lackeys of US imperialism, and they still enjoy it!

The international rules of the 21st century are much better than this era.

After all, ordinary people, who account for the majority of the population, are limited by information channels. How can they know about the dirty things among the national governments?
What's more, most ordinary people are not even interested in the reported international political news!
To put it bluntly, the economic colonial system of the 21st century does not need to control the people of a country at all, it only needs to make the government of a country obedient.

"Sire, this is what my return to Greece is about.

I can be a mediator who is loyal to His Majesty, and make the Greeks become His Majesty's servants without knowing it! "

"Then how do you plan to deal with those Jewish capitalists from the UK? My intelligence department told me that these wealthy Jewish capitalists have already knocked on the political door of Greece with money.

They don't need to appear in person at all, there are Greek politicians and even generals who speak for them.

In this world, there are only a few people who can refuse the temptation of money. "

Aristotle grinned after hearing this and replied without hesitation: "Money can certainly do most things, but human nature is still greedy for life and fear of death.

I believe that the deterrent force of the Legion of Honor can easily defeat the gold coin offensive of the Jewish capitalists! "

After seeing Aristotle's attitude, Li Wei finally showed a satisfied smile.

Sure enough, he saw the right person, Aristotle was a ruthless person who dared to kill in the country!

Li Wei knew very well that no matter how powerful a person's reputation and power were, as long as he wanted to be the only one, he had to be ruthless enough.

Any dictator steps on the corpses and blood of his enemies to rise to power, even in the civilized 21st century!

Obviously, Aristotle passed Li Wei's test, otherwise, loyalty alone without sufficient means would not be able to help Li Wei.

For Li Wei, it is easy to obtain loyalty, but what is rare is the ability of talent!

This is why Li Wei ordered the front line to capture Aristotle alive.

An unknown Greek writer became the leader of an army behind the enemy step by step, and gained a very high personal reputation in his own motherland. Li Wei naturally wanted to try his best to pull him into his camp.

Levy then asked one final question: "What else do you want besides what you've asked?"

Aristotle replied confidently: "As long as Your Majesty does not send the French Defense Forces to encircle and suppress the Legion of Honor, and let the Kingdom of Serbia and even the other two vassal states in the Balkans continue to attack the Legion of Honor, I will have no problems.

Your Majesty should not feel sorry for the Serbian, Romanian and Bulgarian regiments I annihilated. "

"That's natural. No matter how much that kind of garbage you eliminate, I won't show any mercy."

In front of his absolutely loyal subordinates, Li Wei has always been too lazy to hide his true thoughts.

Yes, in Li Wei's eyes, the three Balkan countries are real garbage!

Even now, the military strength of the three Balkan countries is enough to crush the Greek Republic at this time.

As Napoleon expected, what prevented the Holy Alliance from attacking Greece was not the seemingly large number of Greek miscellaneous troops, but the endless mountains, rivers and woodlands in Greece!

Aristotle left Vienna. Just like when he came in, Aristotle left quietly. Except for the top officials of the Livy government, outsiders did not know that Aristotle was escorted to Vienna !
This is naturally an order from Li Wei deliberately. Now foreign forces have known that Li Wei has the ability to hypnotize. If the news of Aristotle's meeting with him spreads, Aristotle's political reputation will definitely be greatly reduced!
Even if ordinary civilians don't know about Levi's terrorist ability (governments of various countries have not publicized it among the people, fearing to cause panic), those politicians and generals must know it. Obstruction far exceeds the support of the Greek people!

Throughout the ages, no matter how large the number of people is, the influence they bring is not as good as that small group of people in power at the top.

Because there is only one way for the people to affect the situation of the country - revolution!
However, as long as the common people have enough to eat and drink, how many people are willing to throw their heads and blood to participate in the revolution?
Revolutions will lose their heads!

The remnants of the Legion of Honor naturally knew about Aristotle's disappearance, but they were not sure whether Aristotle was captured or killed. The mouths of soldiers brainwashed by the war system.

Unless the soldier took the initiative to speak out!
Even the high-level Serbian army who had been working with Napoleon for a period of time did not know whether Aristotle was dead or alive. They only knew that the Legion of Honor had lost Aristotle's leadership and was walking like a headless chicken. Lin, avoiding the pursuit of the Serbian army.

Although the remnants of the Legion of Honor managed to escape the encirclement and suppression of the Serbian Legion several times, the Legion of Honor without Aristotle is like an iron man who has lost his soul. The morale of the Legion of Honor is getting lower every day. Even if the generals still stick to the beliefs left by Aristotle, it is difficult to change all this.

At the critical moment when the Legion of Honor was about to disappear, Aristotle returned!
When Aristotle appeared in front of the Legion of Honor, he received the most solemn welcome without any explanation.

Aristotle subdued the Legion of Honor with only one sentence: "Brothers, I am back!"
