King's Landing in France

The first change came from the Girondins.

After Dumouriez repelled General Bouille's royalist army, the Girondins began to believe that France, after the Great Revolution, already had an invincible army, and the French army composed of citizens was invincible.

They even began to publicize that Frost was able to defeat Falayette's army, which was three times their own, because Lafayette's army was not revolutionary enough.

All in all, Frost was able to win not because of his outstanding military talents, but because the revolutionary French army was invincible.

With this recognition, Brissot, one of the leaders of the Girondins, began to advocate war.

He cried out in Parliament: "Who says Leopold's throne cannot be overthrown? Who says there will be no limit to the prowess of the French army? Who can guarantee that the French will be bound by the frontier?

"If the kings will wage a war against the French people, the French people will give them a war against the kings!

"Volcanoes that are about to erupt are everywhere and only a spark is needed to ignite them! Worrying about the consequences is unpatriotic. War only threatens the king!

"We're going to Vienna to force him to hand over the traitor Louis XVI and his Austrian women! Bring them back and stand trial by the people!

"Our answer is, war!"

All the Girondists in Paris fell into a frenzy, and only a few peaceful friends in Paris remained rational.

Robespierre unequivocally opposed the war, but now there are only a few people in the Jacobin Club, including Marat, in the parliament, and it is impossible to stop the spreading war frenzy.

The second change is that not long after entering 1792, Leopold II, who had always maintained restraint, died.

Chapter 154

February 1792, Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

Louis XVI in exile is pacing back and forth in the side hall of Schönbrunn Palace.

Queen Mary: "You are the second heir to the Holy Roman Emperor! If, if something happens to Franz...you will be the emperor of France and the Holy Roman Empire!"

The locksmith hissed. "Don't say it so loudly! If someone hears it, they'll think we're playing tricks against Franz!"

Mary rolled her eyes: "You! I've been moving around in Vienna these days, maybe I can't..."

Louis XVI: "Stop it! I wouldn't do that, no! Absolutely not!"

Queen Mary bit her lip and finally closed her mouth.

At the same time, Franz II, who was about to ascend the throne, was pacing back and forth in his father's study room: "My aunt has been active in Vienna recently, what exactly does she want to do?"

The younger brother of Franz II, Karl Ludwig Johann Lorenz, was dressed in military uniform and stood upright: "Don't worry, brother, the security of the palace is perfect, even if they want to plot against you, they will not be able to succeed. "

Franz heaved a long sigh: "Forget it, staying here will cause more nights and dreams. My aunt... In short, I don't think she is a good person. Let's declare war as soon as possible and send him back to the throne of France! My father always wanted Divide an extra piece of Polish land, so keep your legion in Hungary, but I think... I think it's just to fight France, and you don't need to use your legion!"

Grand Duke Karl: "I am always ready to accept your orders, I am your sword, brother."

Franz patted his younger brother on the shoulder lightly: "You shouldn't be needed this time."

Grand Duke Karl has always been weak and sick, so Franz didn't think his brother was a great general at all.

It can only be said that he is very blind.

But it's not his fault. Maybe in Europe now, only Andy Frost knows what an outstanding general Karl is.

Franz took a deep breath, and then said to his brother: "I have decided that after the succession ceremony is over, I will immediately declare war on France and send our aunt and her locksmith husband back to Paris!

"Although it is said in many places that Andy Frost, a famous general in France, has come out of the world, but I believe that our Marshal Wumze will not lose to this fledgling kid!"

Here in Paris, early this morning, the Jacobin Club gathered a large group of gentlemen.

Robespierre is giving a speech: "We should not start a war at this time! In war, the expansion of administrative power, the expansion of the power of military generals, the people's attention to external things, the worship of military leaders, and the obedience of soldiers, All this will lead to the birth of a character like Caesar or Cromwell!

"We are lucky because in the previous war, Andy Frost, who performed well in the previous war, was a selfless man with little desire for power and a heart for France! He had the opportunity to choose to be the Cromwell of France!

"Think what would happen if, after defeating Lafayette, he marched into Paris immediately! He would become a de facto Lord Protector!

"At that time, no force can stop him!

"But he chose to stay at the Conta! How noble! He must have known that revolutionary Paris would not fall easily, and that General Bouille could not succeed! That's why he didn't go north!

"Now, if we launch a war against the European monarchs, it is very likely that Frost's painstaking efforts will not be in vain! At that time, he may be forced to fight that new Cromwell! Just like He beat the traitor Lafayette like that!"

Robespierre was making a speech in Kang, when suddenly the door was opened, and Mara rushed in: "Everyone! The parliament has just passed a resolution, with an overwhelming majority of 710 votes to 7, deciding to treat Austria and the Holy Land The Roman Empire is at war!"

Robespierre was shocked: "What?"

Mara continued with a serious expression: "Moreover, they also passed a resolution to appoint Andy Frost as the commander-in-chief of the Italian Army!"

Dandong slammed on the table: "Damn it! They think Frost is too an eyesore in China, and they want to send him abroad!"

Robespierre: "Now our Jacobin Club has no influence on the army. It's over, no one can stop the war!"

He fell down one after another dejectedly, sat on the chair, and sighed heavily.

Konta.

After An Ning received the order from Paris, she was overjoyed and ordered the whole army to eat.

Originally, he was mentally prepared. He worked on the production line in Konta throughout 1792, and it took three to five years to increase the production of breech-loading guns to the point where he could arm some skirmishers.

At that time all Europe will tremble under the ferocious skirmishing fire.

Of course, this will not immediately change the form of warfare. In fact, during the American Civil War, troops began to be equipped with Lianzhu guns such as Henry guns, and they still lined up to be shot in battle.

It is not possible to change the form of warfare with just one or two new weapons.

But the breech-loading gun would certainly give Anning's troops a degree of advantage.

Using technology to bully others is also the fun of time travel.

So An Ning was ready to do this for the next few years, but unexpectedly the order came down.

And the appointment he gave was still the commander of the Italian Army he wanted most.

France now has a small territory in Italy, mainly from Nice, along the Mediterranean Sea.

The entire legion stationed here was assigned to the command of An Ning.

However, unlike when Napoleon took office in the Italian Legion later, the strength of this legion was not strong.

When Napoleon took office in the Italian Legion, it was 1796. At that time, the French army had been fighting in Italy for many years.

That's why Napoleon took over such a big pile of Italian legions-although the supplies of this legion were very bad, the soldiers didn't even have shoes, and the military salary hadn't been paid normally for a long time.

But there are indeed a lot of people in this legion, and there are still tens of thousands of people who have been fighting for several years.

An Ning does not have this condition. The French army in northern Italy now has just over 1 people, and it does not occupy a large area.

An Ning had to set off from Nice with his troops to Italy.

In this way, An Ning's original troops, plus the newly assigned troops, totaled 4 people.

The enemies that An Ning may have to face are 3 people from the Kingdom of Sardinia and 5 from the Northern Italian Army in Austria.

It's twice the difference in strength!

But An Ning was full of confidence.

That's what he told his officers.

"Don't be a headache when you see that the enemy has 8 people. The enemy's 8 people are scattered in different places, and they belong to two countries. The coordination between them will be very poor. We have the advantage of concentrated forces, and we can use individual forces to defeat them. The method is to use fast and mobile combat to destroy the enemy!"

An Ning's officers looked at each other.

Then Davout asked An Ning on behalf of everyone: "How can you be sure that the Kingdom of Sardinia will join the war?"

An Ning was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Napoleon wanted to attack the coalition forces of the Kingdom of Sardinia and Austria because the first anti-French alliance was established at that time.

But the first anti-French alliance was formed after the beheading of Louis XVI in 1793.

It's not formed yet!The king's head hasn't fallen yet!

An Ning slapped his head: "Wait a minute! If the Kingdom of Sardinia doesn't join the war... we can only grab Milan? No, bah, Milan has been liberated?"

Berthier: "Are you still planning to rob Turin, the capital of the Kingdom of Sardinia?"

That's what I planned, isn't it?

An Ning waved his hand: "Forget it, Milan is fine. Then we are facing Beaulieu's 5 Austrian army. Gentlemen, we have won [-] against [-]. There is no reason why we can't beat [-]." ?”

The officers all laughed.

La Salle: "I still think it's too small. If there are 5 people, as long as I dispatch my cavalry brigade, I can capture them all!"

An Ning: "Just blow it!"

In this way, on April 1792, 4, France declared war on the Holy Roman Empire.

Chapter 155 General Frost's Expedition to Italy

Early in the morning when she was about to leave, An Ning had just finished her breakfast when she found Fanny packing her things.

"What are you doing?" An Ning asked suspiciously.

"Follow the baggage train." Fanny turned her head to look at An Ning, and then said angrily, "I told you to find an orderly, but you only found one person to take care of your horse, but no one to take care of you. !"

An Ning scratched her head: "I think I can take care of myself."

After all, An Ning was also a social animal who had lived independently for so many years before crossing, so she still had confidence in taking care of herself.

But Fanny snorted: "When I don't take care of you, you always wear the same military uniform repeatedly, just like Mr. Robespierre in Paris!"

Robespierre can be seen by AOE, which shows how deeply impressed Fanny was by his green coat that never changes.

An Ning: "Forget it, if you're willing to go with the transport team, just follow. I don't rule out having someone help me arrange what to wear every day. Then I'll go first."

"Go." Fanny stopped what she was doing, turned around and saluted An Ning.

An Ning adjusted her military uniform and strode away from the residence.

As soon as he went out, he saw Beethoven and David, who was carrying a light drawing board, riding past the entrance of the headquarters.

An Ning: "What are you two doing?"

Beethoven: "We will move with the headquarters, please allow me to record this expedition! I have a hunch that this expedition will go down in history!"

David: "I don't think you will refuse a painter's interview."

An Ning: "Okay, if you want to follow, just keep coming. Since I can't stop my maid from following, I can't refuse you either."

David: "We will record your heroic appearance in the most artistic way!"

Just as he was talking, Berthier came out of the headquarters. Seeing An Ning, he saluted, and then reported loudly: "The vanguard has already set off first, and we will try to arrive in Nice within three days and set up a supply center there. "

An Ning nodded: "I leave it to you."

Thanks to Berthier, otherwise An Ning would not know how to arrange various matters for the [-] army.

The supply of [-] troops alone is an extremely complicated matter.

But after getting Berthier, you can throw all these complicated things to the energetic chief of staff.

And Lazar Cano was left in France to run the factories and chambers of commerce created by An Ning, and raise supplies by the way.

With the full cooperation of these two talented people, An Ning could easily lead the troops to expedition to Italy.

The troops would first go to Nice, and then advance into Italy by the seaside road.

This requires a large circle, and the supply distance has increased a lot.But this is also impossible. There is still a Kingdom of Sardinia between the peaceful base and the French-controlled area in Italy.

The Kingdom of Sardinia did not declare war on France, so An Ning had to make a detour.

In another time and space Napoleon Wars, Napoleon defeated the Kingdom of Sardinia before the decisive battle with the Austrian Army, and then signed a contract to obtain the military access of the Kingdom of Sardinia, allowing his supply line to pass through Sardinia. Ding Kingdom's territory.

Then Napoleon fought a decisive battle with Marshal Beaulieu on the plain of the Po River, and after winning the battle, he went straight to Milan.

After occupying Milan, the supply problem of the Italian Army was completely solved by relying on the rich Milan.

An Ning cannot fight the Kingdom of Sardinia, so he must fight Beaulieu as soon as possible, and occupy Milan after defeating Beaulieu.

Otherwise, the supply is really choking.

The supply line from Nice, to San Remo, through Andora, and finally to Savona was too long.

Although this road is a relatively easy coastal road due to the better economic development, but such a long distance is unbearable.
