In the battle plan I envisioned to open up the lowland corridor of the Netherlands, the Netherlands would detach its troops to defend Emmen with four to five thousand men, and then the main force would go north to cooperate with the German allied forces to attack the Duke of Luxembourg with a superior force of more than 35,000 men.

There are 20,000 French troops in several strongholds. Considering that Emmen may fall and the Dutch army's back is unprotected,

The battle plan to attack the Duke of Luxembourg became the current encirclement point for reinforcements. The 13,000 French troops who came to the rescue were besieged, and the Duke of Luxembourg was attacked for the rescue. The relationship between the two can also be reversed. Of course, if the French army

If we retreat before there is no supplies, we will continue to attack the French army under the Duke of Luxembourg from the north and south according to the original plan.

In other words, the main attack of the entire plan will be launched by the Dutch. Because the terrain of Groningen Province is high in the south and low in the north, we have a geographical advantage in launching the attack. The German princes' coalition forces of Hanover and Brunswick will attack

Winschoten, the Duke of Hesse is stuck between the two points of Zeidlaren and Sidebilen, leaving the main force of the Duke of Luxembourg's French army in Findanli to be unable to support himself. In this way, we who occupy the right time and place will win.

However, there is a prerequisite for this plan, that is, the Dutch must capture Byron and prevent the French army from approaching the Duke of Luxembourg.

The army has been organized. I am about to lead the infantry to advance towards Emmen, while the old man Orange is going to lead more than 4,000 cavalry to advance towards Byron.

After explaining to the old man Orange, I told him to dismount the cavalry and use them as infantry. Don't be stupid and use cavalry to charge on the muddy land. I ended the conversation with the old man Orange. I took this time to finally find a way to talk to the guard commander Leon.

It was time for private communication, but I called Eugene over. I patted Eugene on the shoulder and glanced sideways at the French people not far away. I asked: "Eugene, can I trust you?"

"I will protect your safety with my life! What tasks do you want to entrust to me?"

"Just stay here and listen." After I said that, I turned to look at Leon, "Leon, you are also Assassin, right?"

"That's half."

"Then you have noticed that there are a lot of sneaky people around me." I glanced at the French entourage not far away.[

"Yes."

"The French sent a lot of people, and Assassin's stronghold in The Hague was destroyed. Assassin, also known as Wendel, was captured, and the French took her as a hostage to threaten me. They wanted me to lose this battle.

The battle with the Duke of Luxembourg. If you don’t do it, Assassin will die.” I tried my best to pretend that I was introducing Leon to Eugene.

"I will not betray the empire, but I also need you to rescue that stupid woman! Can you do it!"

"This will take some time." Leon nodded.

"Is one month enough?"

"Enough!"

"Well, you and Eugene will follow the old Dutch man. Eugene will be responsible for covering Leon. If you don't understand, don't ask. Just do whatever Leon says. Well done. You will get what you deserve.

Reward.”

"yes!"

I finally won my freedom. But Assassin is a hostage, which still limits my ability to do things. I have to get her out, and it must be before I defeat the Duke of Luxembourg.

Leon and Eugene left, and as soon as I returned to the main queue, the French sent John, a cuckold, up and asked: "What are you talking about with those two guys?"

"Eugene is a good guy, I plan to reuse him. So send someone to experience it."

"Then why do you even send your guards together!" John stared.

"Followed by, when is your turn? You pointed your hands in front of us!" He whispered, I turned around.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, after more than 40 kilometers, I led the army to Emmen. With the light that the French army ignited at the base, I could see the fighting marks left by the French army to the base in the early morning of this morning.

There is a large swamp on the south side of Emen. The army walking on it is just looking for death, and artillery cannot be used. There is only one small path that can be opened. Such a good defensive location can't even keep it in two hours. It is really a waste of waste. . [[[[[[[[

But there is good news that the French army is still staying in the place of Emen.

Either the combat of the Aden Plateau and Emen consumes their great physical strength, or it has accumulated too much seawater from the small basins between Byron to Findan. Anyway, these French people did not go, that is, the above two reasons.

Now that the French army is still in place, I will no longer make other arrangements, just let the army stand up to artillery, rest in place, and keep alert.

From 10 pm to 3 am, I stayed in the military account and waited for the orange brand to send the war report.

Mary's comfort "woman" came to my tent. She sighed: "His Royal Highness, please don't make unnecessary troubles. A few of the person in charge of it opened. "

"It's tantamount to saying it is not to say, what's the use of this?" I shrugged to look dismissive of the French attitude, although I didn't care what they were thinking.

"But there is a difference between saying and not talking."

"Okay, then go back and tell them that I want to be important Eugene, so I plan to send my guards to watch him, so as not to die on the battlefield, just if you believe it or not."

Mary left with a bitter smile. After too long, she came back again: "They think your explanation is far -fetched."

"Lu" comes out of a ridicule, I said, "Look, say it, don't say it, they don’t believe it."

"Don't be like this. If you don't get the trust of the French people, it is not good for us, and the reason why the French people do not do this is not because they have no confidence in cooperating with you. And, not long ago, you have just encouraged Nigeria. They are struggling to fight, they are very disturbed. But if you increase their confidence, they will not be suspicious. "Maryan said, after a long day, she came to be a speaker, then I would Let them set their minds.

"How to increase their confidence?"

"For example, tell us, plan about you."

"Okay, you find them."

Mary was glad to go away. After a while, two new faces appeared. These two new faces not only did not have the arrogance of Die Ge, but looked at my eyes with that trace. This is very interesting. Then, then

Sending the guard by the tent, I said, "I heard you feel very insecure."

"Yes! So far, we haven't seen any signs of cooperating with us! Not only that, you have also helped Nidland to win a few times, we really doubt your sincerity!"

"Really? I can only say that you are a bit stupid." I looked at them and pointed to Byron on the map as if they were looking at idiots. "Do you know where that place is?"

"Byron."

"If you had heard what Eugene said just now, you wouldn't be so insecure. Well, I'll tell you here once! You helped the Duke of Luxembourg's reinforcements occupy Emmen. The Dutch can't just retreat.

, if you want to lose, Byron is the opportunity. As for the reason, because Byron is stuck between the Duke of Luxembourg and the reinforcements, once the main Dutch people are dispatched, they will be attacked from both sides! Do you understand now? Attacked from both sides, and

What advantage could be more easily won than this?”

"If that's the case, why are you still boosting the morale of the Dutch?"

I laughed, and the Frenchman really cooperated: "Inspiring? Go out and find out for yourself. At the pre-war meeting, those Dutch people were inspired by my words. It was all inspired by the adjutant next to me."

"But you are not cooperating if you let that old guy boost morale!"

I spread my hands and said: "You are so powerful, then you come!"

The French were speechless, and then I made these two military novices dizzy with my few words, and they somewhat believed that I was indeed cooperating with them.

So, this first hurdle was finally passed.

Byron's battle report did not arrive until four o'clock.

The old man of Orange Brand captured Byron without any effort, and also described the road conditions of the passage connecting Emmen to Findan.

The road condition is a bit bad. Byron and the area before Byron are fine. This stronghold is built on hills and the sea water cannot flood anywhere, but the basin area is not good. It is simply a large swamp. No wonder the French army chose to stay

Here instead of venturing out to Findan.

Since Byron belongs to us, there is no point in monitoring the French army here in Emmen.

After exiting Emmen, we began to carry out three operations on the Dutch villages and towns where there were still people around: take them all, move them all, and burn them all. Anyway, we couldn't leave them to the French.

Leaving a force of 1,000 men at the entrance to and from the Hundslen hilly area, we headed for Byron.

Byron was captured, hundreds of French soldiers were captured, and the basin connecting Findan and Emmen became a large swamp. So, what should be done next?

In fact, there is nothing we can do.

wait.

Waiting for other forces to respond.

Within a few days, the French came over in panic and made a lot of noise. The reason was that the Baden Army led by the Prince of Baden of the Principality of Baden blocked the retreat of the French army that attacked Emmen. The supply line of the lightly armed French army was cut off, and the supply line was cut off.

It was impossible to make up for it. At the same time, the coalition forces of the two principalities of Hanover and Brunswick appeared in Winschoten, and the Duke of Hesse arrived between the two points of Zeidlaren and Sidebilen. The Duke of Luxembourg was unable to move.

between.

I have to say that the Prince of Baden is really worthy of his role as the janitor of the Habsburg Dynasty. He understood what I meant without even sending a letter to him.

Instead of joining the allied forces of Hanover and Brunswick, they went straight to the back of France. This insertion was like a heavy blow hitting the [g] point, and the effect was unparalleled.
