After Mannstein led the 35th Cavalry Regiment to quickly distance himself from the Imperial Army after one strike, and after the 35th Cavalry Regiment set aside, the Imperial Army also stopped at the command of Sheen. It was not that Sheen did not want to pursue, but just after the 35th Cavalry Regiment retreated, the 36th Cavalry Regiment of Prussia also changed his previous attitude of watching and slowly pressed up, which forced Sheen to order to stop.

The entire Imperial Army had only a total of more than 1,000 cavalrymen. Seeing that the Prussian cavalry army on the opposite side was at least not less than 2,000, Shien might be determined to send cavalry to attack, which could delay the speed of the Prussian cavalry, but for the treasured cavalry, Shien was unwilling to let the Imperial Army's cavalry lose too much.

After seeing that the Imperial Army did not pursue, the two Prussian cavalry regiments left the battlefield as fast as possible after maintaining a period of alert.

When Buschman learned about the performance of the Imperial Army from Maninstein, the division commander was cautious. Although the Imperial Army did not cause much damage to the Thirty-Fifteen Cavalry Regiment, these miscellaneous armies could barely maintain a certain lineup when facing the impact of the Prussian cavalry, which made Buschman feel a little pressure.

You should know that the 18th Division is just a newly formed division. The performance of the soldiers in the division may be a little better than the Imperial Army on the other side, but this is definitely not too much. This means that the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army is not much different from that of the General Army. Perhaps it will be a very easy battle for the Third Division, but it will inevitably be a hard battle for the 18th Division.

Moreover, the commander of the Imperial Army opposite was quite rational, and immediately issued an order to dispatch troops after the attack of the Pu army cavalry. After retreating from the Pu army cavalry, the Imperial Army did not pursue it, which also showed that the commander of the Imperial Army was not a reckless person.

"Let the 59th Infantry Regiment, the 60th Infantry Regiment, and the 61st Infantry Regiment unfold in a diamond shape on the front. Order the 35th Cavalry Regiment and the 36th Cavalry Regiment to be responsible for the two wings, and at the same time, let the two cavalry regiments release the scouts and cavalry patrol the surrounding thirty miles. The 62nd Infantry Regiment follows the division and maintains a distance from the 60th Infantry Regiment!"

While the 18th Division was busy setting up camps, the Imperial Army was not idle either. Although an afternoon encounter brought a certain blow to the morale of the Imperial Army, the Württemberg Corps was not seriously injured, and the retreat of the Pu army's cavalry later made some princes feel a little arrogant.

However, as the commander of the entire army, Sheen would not be like those guys who didn't know how high the sky was. The combat effectiveness of the Pu Army cavalry was also shown in this small-scale battle, and although this part did not make Sheen feel the oppressive force, it also made him feel that this battle was not as difficult as he imagined.

As the commander of the city defense force in Frankfurt, Sheen did not rely solely on aristocratic origin and mixed qualifications. Sheen had tens of real talents and knowledge, otherwise Schiege would not have handed over this imperial army formed with great effort to Heen.

When he was young, Sheen also traveled to European countries. He even served as an officer in countries such as France and Austria, and he participated in many battles. If anyone who knows war best in Frankfurt knows the best, Sheen would be second, no one would dare to be first.

When he was an Austrian officer, Sheen had personally fought with the Prussian army. Sheen also knew a little about the combat effectiveness of the Prussian army. Although these Prussian cavalry in the afternoon looked not much different from those of the previous Prussian cavalry, their combat effectiveness was too far apart.

You can see if you look at the war losses of the Württemberg army. After the war statistics, there were only more than 100 casualties in the Württemberg army. He also witnessed the scene where one thousand Pu Zheng cavalry met and three thousand Austrian infantry collapsed when the three thousand Austrian infantry were destroyed.

The intelligence also shows that opposite the Imperial Army was the 18th Prussian Division, which was just formed last year. Therefore, this also made Sheen feel optimistic about the subsequent battle.

Prussia invested three divisions to attack the Main River Basin, and only the third division on the front line of Coburg was the teacher regiment previously formed and one of the most combat-effective divisions of the Prussian army. The remaining two divisions were newly formed.

Sheen was confident in Coburg. The terrain of Coburg was dangerous to serve as a fortress in the east of the Main River. Without any accidents, Coburg could definitely last for more than three months, even if Coburg faced a veteran division like the Prussian Third Division.

Sheen had this confidence. The last time he heard from Coburg, the defenders there were tenaciously fighting the attacking Prussian army, so he felt that he could face the enemy on the other side calmly.

What Sheen didn't know was that just when he was thinking about Coburg here, the 17th Prussian Division had already arrived outside Coburg City. Although it was a little later than the scheduled arrival time, the 17th Division finally arrived at its destination without the Coburg enemy discovering an abnormality.

Seeing the arrival of the 17th Division, an infantry regiment left behind in the 3rd Division breathed a sigh of relief. Before the arrival of the 17th Division, although the 9th Infantry Regiment did not let the enemy find any abnormalities, the people who knew the situation still took a breath in their hearts.

After taking over the attack mission from the 9th Infantry Regiment, Ultraland ordered the army to station in the camp of the original 3rd Division. Then, the 17th Division began to launch a water-releasing attack on the enemies of Coburg. Of course, Orland's move was to paralyze the enemy.

You should know that the task of the 17th Experiment is to win Coburg. Although Coburg is relatively strong, the attack strength of the Third Division some time ago made Coburg relax. If the 17th Division could seize the most relaxed opportunity of Coburg, it would definitely be able to fight down.

....................................

With the help of the seized grain transport ship, the main force of the Third Division led by Schonhorst had already crossed the Main River. Of course, in order not to leak the whereabouts of the Third Division, Schonhorst immediately destroyed the wrong ship used to cross the River after the main force crossed the Main River.

After setting foot on the land on the south bank of the Main River, Sharnhorst did not rush to travel as soon as possible. Although the General Staff had already indicated the terrain and town locations of this area, the Third Division still had to send a large number of reconnaissance cavalry to investigate the nearby situation.

....................................

Sitting in the room, but thoughts had already floated to the Main River Basin. William wrinkled and looked at the document in front of him, but even a word William did not read it in.

At this moment, Buel walked in and said:

"Your Majesty, news has been heard from Vienna that the Austrian army has begun to be mobilized on a large scale. In addition to the troops confronting the Ottomans on the southern front, the main force of the Austrian army has been mobilized to the area bordering our Prussia!"

When William was stunned when he heard Buel's words, he was shocked.

"Didn't the last time the Intelligence Agency still heard that the Austrian front troops had retreated to celebrate Christmas?"

"Yes, your majesty, but now the latest information is that the Austrian army's actions are greater than ever. According to the General Staff's estimates, the Austrians deployed at least 100,000 troops on the border with us!"

After Bouer said that, he looked at William's eyes, and saw William's head lowering slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, only William heard:

"Boel, what do you think of His Majesty Leopold? Is he really going to go to war with us?"

One hundred thousand people, this is no longer a simple threat. No country will say that half of its own country's troops are deployed on the border in order to threaten the enemy, unless he will make a big move.

And William obviously thinks so.

"Your Majesty, I think the Austrians do not rule out the possibility of going to war with us. The Austrians have pulled out most of their troops except for the Ottomans. I think these Austrians will definitely not simply conduct armed marches."

After hearing Buel's words, William shook his head

"This month, there has been snowfall in Bohemia and Silesia to varying degrees, and according to intelligence, the Austrian Polish regional government has also begun to vigorously suppress the hidden lines we deployed. I think the Austrians are obviously preparing to go to war with us. In other words, war may be imminent!"

"Your Majesty, what does the snowfall have to do with the Austrians' attack?"

William smiled and said:

"Buel, if there is a snowfall, the road will inevitably be affected. If the Austrians want to start a war, they will have to look for a very good fighter. The snowfall in Bohemia and Silesia will greatly affect the connection between the local garrisons. Perhaps with the cover of heavy snow, the Austrian army can even eat a certain force deployed to the front line before we can react!"

Buel's face turned cold

"Your Majesty, the army on the front line has entered the state of highest combat readiness. I think even if the Austrians take action, our army will have sufficient ability to drive them out!"

"Well, what you said makes sense"

After saying that, William said:

"Immediately let the General Staff formulate a combat plan with Austria, and at the same time let the Eighth and Thirteenth Divisions in the Polish region approach the Austrian border immediately and tell the frontline troops that if they find any abnormal movements in the Austrian army, they will immediately fight back!"

If Leopold knew that William would react so much, he would probably smile bitterly immediately. You should know that nearly 200,000 troops from both sides are gathering on the front line. Once a war begins, it will be a war that determines the fate of the country!

PS: Sorry, the number of the infantry regiment of the 18th Division was written wrong yesterday. I will correct it. There were four infantry regiments in Prussia, and the number was arranged from the beginning.
