164 Spain's first defeat

"What?

More than 10,000 coalition forces of the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Portugal were defeated by fewer national-savior revolutionary troops in the Eastern Pyrenees Province?

It also provided a large number of muskets and even artillery to the revolutionary army of saving the country, which lacked guns and ammunition!

This is also claimed to be the backbone of the anti-French alliance!

Do Spaniards eat shit?!

If you can't fight, don't send it. Are they feeding the morale of the revolutionary army in saving the country?!"

After Li Wei from Toulouse received a new battle report, he was so depressed...

Li Wei originally thought that after the establishment of the Anti-French Alliance, he would be able to become his own support after the establishment of his own Spanish Kingdom and the Portuguese Kingdom coalition (mainly Spain sends troops, and Portugal belongs to the "face project").

By opening the military map, you can know that the Languedoc-Roussillon region attacked by the Kingdom of Spain and the Alliance of the Kingdom of Portugal was the same as the areas where its Black Dragon Legion was about to attack, except that the provinces attacked by both sides were different.

The coalition forces of the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Portugal attacked the southernmost end of the Languedoc-Roussillon region, which is the Eastern Pyrenees province.

The main attack direction of the Black Dragon Legion (the ammunition supply has not been in place and the attack has not started yet) is the provinces of Ode and Ero.

Previously, the Kingdom of Spain sent secret envoys to make a private agreement with Li Wei (there is no such thing as a paper treaty) to divide the attacking provincial areas, and also claimed that in addition to the provinces that both sides mainly attacked, other territories were based on the actual occupied areas.

To put it bluntly, it is to seize territory with strength!

The anti-French alliance did not like Levi's New France Kingdom, and did not even recognize whether this country was legal, so the Spanish Kingdom only made an agreement with Levi in ​​private and had no intention of signing a formal treaty.

The Madrid government was very arrogant in treating the Kingdom of New France, but the negotiators sent by the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Portugal were very polite to Li Wei, probably to avoid conflicts with Li Wei's army.

Levi agreed to the treaty because of the attitude of the other envoy.

Anyway, his Black Dragon Legion is gathering, and a large amount of military supplies need to be recruited from various places just in case.

After all, if Li Wei's Black Dragon Legion did not take action, if he did, he would have to break through the two French regions and capture the city of Marseille to end a stage of military operation!

In this way, we must naturally reserve enough military supplies in advance, and we cannot rely on food for the enemy.

The Black Dragon Legion dispatched by Li Wei this time is much larger than before. In addition to more than 10,000 people staying behind to guard their homes, including the mountain division composed of sharpshooters, the Black Dragon Legion has more than 40,000 troops on the front line!

Of course, there must be more than 10,000 Black Dragon Legion guarding the family, as well as the standing legion led by Niza, who has been enlightened by the administrative, and the garrison corps that have been continuously identified and trained in various places.

The border between the New France Kingdom and the Paris Revolutionary Government is too long, so Li Wei naturally has to beware that the other party suddenly attacked his occupied area from other directions when he attacked the direction of Marseille.

Fortunately, the Paris Revolutionary Government was also taught a lesson by the Black Dragon Legion. It would never use the surface military data of the Black Dragon Legion as an important factor in evaluating the comprehensive military strength of both sides.

Even if there were only more than 10,000 Black Dragon Legion and more than 30,000 standing legions in the rear, and there were more than 100,000 Revolutionary Armys in Saving the Country, the Paris Revolutionary Government did not dare to launch a brazen attack.

Today, hundreds of thousands of revolutionary troops in the country have just completed their organization. Many teams have not completed the basic line infantry training and have not sufficient training. No matter how high the morale is, it is still inferior to cannon fodder.

What's more, if the training time is long, the officers and soldiers of the revolutionary army of the country will be brainwashed by propagandists for a long time, and the revolutionary will will definitely become more stable.

In the words of the game, the current Paris Revolutionary Government is in the period of violent war, and it is not yet time to take the initiative.

Therefore, in terms of overall strategy, the Paris Revolutionary Government adopted a defense-oriented and well-trained revolutionary army to send priority to the Italian coalition in the eastern border defense against the anti-French alliance, and the southern region to guard against the upcoming offensives of the Kingdom of New France.

The disastrous defeats of the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Portugal were not only beyond Li Wei's expectations, but also surprised the Revolutionary Government of Paris after receiving the news.

Was the Spanish degenerate, or was the brainwashing effect of the propagandists of the Revolutionary Army who saved the country was so good that they burst out with combat effectiveness that exceeded that of the French army in the past?

Later, after investigation, both reasons were found!

"Sir, the Spanish royal family has long been corrupt and degenerate. They are still immersed in the glory of the Age of Discovery. The government has borrowed money to survive, and it is common for the army to eat empty wages and drink soldiers' blood.

This is because the Kingdom of Spain gathered regular troops that were not short of the country, otherwise they would have lacked the courage to fight."

Manide, who is temporarily in charge of diplomatic work and the State Administration of Military Intelligence, has a tone of ridicule towards Spain.

As for the Kingdom of Portugal, since the troops sent were unable to break through even the triple digits, Manide was too lazy to evaluate...

Although the Kingdom of Portugal participated in the anti-French alliance, their role was similar to that of the countries in Italy that were waving flags and cheering. The troops sent out were more like showing off their presence than coming to fight...

This Portuguese army with less than 100 people was also organized into a Portuguese company by the commanders of the Spanish Army. When fighting against the revolutionary army in the country, they did not dare to send them to the front line, for fear that if one accidentally did not, the allies would be wiped out...

That's so embarrassing!

And it will also affect the international friendship in the anti-French alliance...

Facts proved that the defeated Spanish Army commander's decision was wise. After getting used to the extremely high casualties ratio of civil war with Levi, he strengthened the country-salvation revolutionary ideological re-education. He fought very powerfully and especially praised the close-range three-row volleys used by Levi when he started his career.

A round of volleys and bayonet charges have low demand for soldiers' training, but they can fight the Spanish regular army, which has been trained for a longer time, and go home to find their mother...

After this battle, not many Spanish soldiers were killed and captured, but the thousands of Spanish remnants who withdrew, plus the Portuguese company that had never seen the appearance of the revolutionary army in the country, would never dare to enter France to fight again...

However, the very arrogant Madrid government is still putting pressure on it, fantasizing that it took advantage of the time when Li Wei gathered strategic materials to seize more territory and expand Spain's territory, resulting in the retreating thousands of Spanish troops no longer dared to retreat back.

As for the revolutionary army in the country who had just won and seized a large amount of arms spoils, they focused on the Black Dragon Legion, so they naturally did not dare to chase them out of the border to kill the enemy.
