Chapter 1489 Election of the Alliance Leader

When King Louis XIV of the Dharma heard the report, he was extremely angry.

When Russia surrendered to the Chinese Alliance, the Chinese army was able to gain a foothold in Eastern Europe.

With this advance base in the China Alliance, the energy of the Allies will be attracted to the Eastern Front and will be unable to expand beyond the outside world.

After World War II, Europe's colonial system collapsed rapidly, with reasons for its own decline and the United States' bad news. However, another reason is that Western Europe faces the threat of the Soviet Union.

Faced with the steel torrent of the Red Empire and the Soviet Red Army that first entered Berlin, Western European countries were frightened and trembled all day long, so naturally they had no strength to maintain overseas colonies.

Because they were threatened by the local government, they did not dare to continue to put their strength overseas and had to do their best to deal with the threat from the Soviet Union.

The current situation of the Allies is similar to that of Western Europe after World War II.

The Chinese Alliance has already arrived in Poland. If you work harder, you have to drive them to the Atlantic Ocean. Maybe you will have to come to the Battle of Cial Mountain in Western Europe.

~~~~~~~

In the city of Warsaw, in the Polish palace, kings and marshals from all over the European countries gathered together.

The news that Russia surrendered and the Chinese army increased its troops on the Russian-Polish border shocked everyone.

This news caused an uproar in the European Union, and everyone looked at each other, showing an extremely shocked expression.

When Russia surrendered, the Chinese army was aiming directly at Poland, and everyone began to panic, worried that the Chinese army would attack Poland in large numbers and come to Warsaw.

At this time, in the palace, the people who came to participate in the meeting whispered in the hall.

King Louis XIV of the Dharma looked unhappy, "I have said a long time ago that we must support Russia as soon as possible. Now that Russia surrenders, the Chinese army continues to increase its troops. Is the result the same as what I said? You will actually believe that the words of a country that wrote Sun Tzu's Art of War are so naive!"

Karl XI and Bessosky blushed, and Bessosky said: "We didn't expect that the Chinese army had such great ambitions!"

King Charles II of England had a dark face, "Okay! Now that Russia has surrendered, what we need to do now should be to analyze the enemy's next move and discuss a way to deal with the enemy."

The proposal of the King of England is undoubtedly very constructive.

Louis XIV is a relatively capable king in French history. He knows that it is meaningless to continue to worry about right and wrong, and he should think of countermeasures now.

"I agree with the King of England's proposal!" Louis XIV said in a deep voice: "However, I also have a suggestion. Before discussing how to deal with the Chinese army, we must elect a commander."

The European Union had complex components, including Britain, France, Spain, Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Denmark, Prussia, Austria, Bavaria, etc., and its command was very chaotic.

It is precisely because of the lack of unified command that they argued endlessly about whether to aid Russia and missed the opportunity to aid Russia.

Therefore, Louis XIV made this suggestion, which was undoubtedly quite constructive.

Everyone whispered a few words, Charles II sorted out his clothes, held his head high and walked out, "I agree with the proposal of the King of Dharma. We should indeed elect a commander. As the main sponsor of the Allies, I think I can command everyone to fight against the Chinese army and achieve brilliant victory."

Britain is now very powerful and has replaced the Netherlands and become the maritime overlord on the Atlantic Ocean.

Louis XIV frowned, "I admit Britain's position at sea, but this time it's a land war, and a powerful army commander should be elected."

Judging from Louis XIV's expression, he obviously wanted to be the commander.

Not only him, the King of Spain, Bessosky, Carl XI, and the Holy Roman Emperor, all wanted to become the commander of Europe.

For a moment, everyone spoke, but no one got the support of others. Just when things were in a deadlock, Austrian Grand Duke and the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold VI proposed: "Since you are choosing a commander, I think the commander needs at least three conditions."

Although the Holy Rome is a mess, the strength of the Habsburg dynasty cannot be underestimated.

Great powers such as Britain, France, and Spain have to give Leopold face. Louis XIV asked: "I don't know what three conditions are?"

Leopold said in a deep voice: "The purpose of electing a commander is to defeat the Chinese Alliance. Therefore, if you want to be a commander, you must first have strength and lead everyone to fight against the Chinese army, and secondly, you must have the strategy to defeat the Chinese army."

Louis XIV and others nodded one after another, expressing their approval of these two conditions.

The European Union has complex components and no strength, and cannot suppress the situation. If the commander selected does not have the strategy to defeat the Chinese army, then it will be useless to choose it.

"I agree!" Louis XIV said first.

Charles II, Bessosky and others also nodded.

Seeing this, Leopold continued with a cunning look: "The last point is that the commander must be supported by everyone. Therefore, I suggest that the person who is in line with the first two points will be selected first, and finally the country will vote to choose a commander supported by each country."

As the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Austria had sufficient election experience and many Holy Roman states. Leopold believed that as long as he entered the second round, he would definitely be the one who became the commander in the end.

Louis XIV and Charles II frowned. They could see Leopold's thoughts clearly at a glance, but neither of them opposed it.

Europe is full of loose sand, and only the elected commander can command the armies of various countries, otherwise it will not be able to compete with the Chinese army at all.

"Okay!" said Charles II: "That's it!"

There are many European countries, but there are actually only a few powerful countries.

After fierce discussion in the palace, only the British king, the French king, the Spanish king, and the Austrian grand duke were left.

Poland, Lithuania and Sweden were eliminated, and the reason was simple. Their persistence led to Russia's surrender. Moreover, the two countries suffered a crushing defeat in Saratov, and their prestige fell sharply. They obviously did not have the ability to lead the European coalition and defeat the Chinese army.

After evaluating the four countries of Britain, France, Spain and Austria, Leopold continued to preside over the meeting. He glanced at the other three candidates and had a decision in his heart.

Britain's strength is at sea, and this time it's a land war, so Britain is not his strongest competitor.

The Spanish Empire was very powerful in the past, but in recent years it has been very bad. It lost to Britain in naval battles and France in land battles, and it is obviously difficult to be the leader.

Then the only one who could truly threaten him and gain the status of European leader was the French King Louis XIV.

Thinking of this, Leopold had already had an idea. He looked at Louis XIV with a smile, "Then please tell me the Dharma King first, your plan to fight against the Chinese Alliance!"

This election is a temporary start, and Leopold believes that Louis XIV should not be prepared and the performance will probably not be too good.

And he had more time to think, and the support of many elected emperors in Holy Rome, and the throne of the leader was probably stable.
