At this time, Australia.
Under the strong attack of the French army, the Dragon Flame Army decayed.
There is no longer any advantage at sea.
Although the Yinzhou ship is strong and powerful, and although it is a first-generation design, it is still one of the top battleships in the world.
But fighting relies not only on strong ships and powerful guns, but also on people.
In the case where there is not much difference between the armies, the transfer of personnel will determine where the final direction on the battlefield will lead.
Only a few of the top generals of Xie Fang Longyan's army still had good combat effectiveness.
The rest have long been under the army leasing policy, or under the deliberate infiltration of Anxi foreign businessmen. These troops no longer have the bravery they had when Qin Changfeng led them.
Now only erosion remains.
In the early days of the war, the Longyan Navy led by General Cao Xi still had strong combat effectiveness.
But now the combat effectiveness of this unit has reached a very low level. No matter how powerful the unit is, it cannot withstand such erosion.
As the war intensified, the fatigue of Long Yan's army was exposed, and Cao Xi was helpless.
The French warships are not too powerful, but the opponent's combat awareness is much stronger than those of the Dragon Flame Army.
The Xie Fang government is unpopular, and Australia's economic lineage has completely collapsed due to the escape of those foreign businessmen. The army can no longer pay military salaries.
War costs lives and money. Without the motivation of profit, this army already has no faith.
Crashes are to be expected.
The French army has defeated the Long Yan Navy and is landing on the island.
General Li, who had been in the army all his life, went into battle personally. He did not know how to fight a naval battle, but he was an army commander. In Xie Fang's government, no one was better at commanding troops than him.
Xie Fang was finally forced to take out all his treasury.
But it was neither civil servants nor generals who forced him to take it out, but their enemies, the French.
The French have now landed on the island, so the next target can only be his palace.
If he doesn't open these vaults, the people who open these vaults will most likely be French.
The military power is now controlled by General Li, and Cao Xi becomes his deputy general.
"General, do we still have any hope of victory in this war? The Longyan Army has been corrupted into this state, and it is difficult to recover!"
"We want to rectify military discipline, but this is a long-term process. The French have already landed on the island. I really don't know how to stop the French."
Old General Li took a deep breath and said, "Now, take my letter and go to Lord Liu Zheng for help."
"After all, Australia is still Long Yan's territory. Although Xie Fang established a government, Master Liu Zheng defeated it here."
"I think he will not ignore death. As for the Australian battlefield, I will try my best to delay the attack of the French."
Old General Li took out the letter he had written and handed it to Cao Xi. Cao Xi was stunned when he looked at the envelope.
"General, you have already planned this, but with the current state of our Longyan Army, it may be difficult to delay..."
Old General Li stood with his hands behind his hands and looked at the picture of loyalty hanging on the wall: "The battle is difficult to fight, but we must fight it. Australia cannot be lost."
"You are from the navy, and you are the best at sailing. But remember not to go through the Strait of Malacca. Lord Liu Zheng is always well-informed."
"But this time, something big happened in Australia. Three months have passed, but Long Yan still seems to know nothing about it."
"This is very strange. I am worried that the area near the Strait of Malacca has been occupied by French troops, and our intelligence has not been sent there."
"You start from Australia, arrive in America first, and then enter Dragon Flame from America. This path may be the safest."
Cao Xi clasped his fists and bowed, and said in a deep voice: "You will live up to your mission!"
General Li turned around and looked at the bright moon in the sky: "Go."
He heard the sound of Cao Xi leaving, sighed, looked at the bright moon, and missed what Long Yan was like now.
…
And at this time, on Tasmani!
"kill!"
The shouts of killing were loud, and the resistance army on the Tasmanian island led by Li He launched a large-scale war. From the beginning to now, in the past three days, the 20,000 resistance troops he led have fought with the black people in France. The troops engaged in several large and small battles.
Under the command of Li He, there were 20,000 resistance troops.
More than 30,000 French black troops were defeated. As for the French's own elite troops, more than 5,000 of them were killed by Li He's troops.
This kind of record is the most important victory they have achieved since their counterattack.
But the victory of this battle also brought them endless sadness.
The battleship built by Li He using the fishing boats they captured was destroyed.
Willing to risk his own life as a Briton holding back the French troops, Farke died on the battlefield.
The troops lost more than 5,000 people, and the supplies they had worked so hard to save were all consumed by this war.
Li He almost lost his life in this war.
But judging from the results, it was all worth it.
After experiencing this battle, the French calmed down a lot.
This time Li Hebei was alert, although their record was good.
But Li He knew that this did not hurt the French team's main force at all.
Soon Li He received a message, a message left to him by an unknown person.
A message that drove him crazy and painful.
The French army landed on the Australian continent. The Long Yan army on the Australian continent collapsed at the first touch, and the fall of Australia was not far away.
Li He didn't dare to accept this reality at all.
He is very clear about how strong the combat effectiveness of Australia's Longyan Army is, and he also knows how powerful those Yinzhou ships are.
No matter how powerful the French fleet is, it is only on the same level as the Yinzhou ship, but it is still far behind the command level of the Long Yan Army.
And his interference during this period should also have played a role. How could Long Yan's army be defeated so easily.
But what the other party attached to him was the reality that Li He had to believe.
On it is the seal of Li He's father, General Li.
But this letter is a memorial reported by General Li to Xie Fang.
It contains information about Australia today.
After Li He saw all this, he collapsed on the spot. If the French army had landed on the Australian mainland, what would be the point of them continuing to attack here? Their current activities would be meaningless.
Even if all the French troops on Tasmania were wiped out, they would not be able to take back Australia.
"Everything is meaningless."
"What is the point of continuing to resist?"
Li He lost his fighting spirit, and Ge Dazhuang saw Li He in such a sinking state for the first time.
"What's wrong, General? You just read a letter, why are you still like those children who were robbed of candy?"
Li He stared blankly at Ge Dazhuang who appeared next to him, and smiled: "Dazhuang, you don't understand, our resistance now is meaningless, not at all."
