Chapter 357 Türkiye's Raid

"Everyone, we have temporarily solved the threat from the west. At least for a long time in the future, we will not face the dilemma of fighting on both sides. So, we now have enough time to solve the threat from the eastern part of the empire. It has been more than a year since the end of the last war. I believe our two friends have gradually recovered their strength and are about to move." Xiao Jie said with a smile at the enlarged cabinet meeting held after the UK was resolved. The perfect solution of the British issue made him very happy.

"Yes, your Majesty. From two months ago, we have discovered that the secret relationship between Austria and Russia is becoming increasingly close, and they may be secretly planning something that is not good for our country." said Siks, Minister of State Security.

"To strengthen the collection of intelligence, be sure to figure out what the two countries are doing!" Xiao Jie said.

“I will arrange for someone to do it.”

"By the way, how are we doing infiltration of Austria?" Xiao Jie asked suddenly. After the end of the last war, under Xiao Jie's order, the French Ministry of State Security, Military Intelligence and Ministry of Foreign Affairs jointly began to infiltrate Austria. The Austrian Empire was composed of countless kingdoms and principalities. Among them, the largest ones were the Kingdom of Austria, the Kingdom of Hungary, the Principality of Bohemia, the Principality of Slovakia, the Principality of Slovenia and the Principality of Croatia. Among them, the Austrian Kingdom was the most powerful, and the king of the Kingdom of Austria also served as the Emperor of the Austrian Empire and the King of the Kingdom of Hungary. In order to collapse this powerful Central European Empire, France began to secretly contact other kings or principalities of the Austrian Empire, hoping to split Austria and completely resolve this threat.

"Your Majesty, the envoys we sent have secretly contacted the leaders of other countries except the Kingdom of Austria. Among them, the Grand Duke of the Kingdom of Hungary clearly rejected us, and the Grand Duke of Bohemia showed cooperation, but they asked us to agree to Bohemia as a national. The Grand Duke of the Principal of Slovakia was a little unstable, but I believe that if Bohemia succeeded, they would immediately agree to cooperate with us. As for the Principality of Slovenia and the Principality of Croatia, there was no response." Grigoo replied.

"Intensify the infiltration of other countries, we must make as many members of the Austrian Empire fall to us." Xiao Jie said. It is said that revolutionary fortresses are often breached from the inside. If Austria can be divided like this, France will save a lot of strength. The Principality of Bohemia ranks third among the member states of the Austrian Empire. If the Principality of Bohemia can be divided from Austria, then Austria's strength will be greatly reduced. At that time, the French army can even directly threaten the capital and hinterland of the Austrian Empire from Bohemia.

Undoubtedly, according to Xiao Jie's request, the large amount of betrayal and betrayal was secretly carried out among the member states of the Austrian Empire. France's move was simply to shake the foundation of Austria.

"What about our preparations? How are we doing?" Xiao Jie asked. No matter what, his strength is the most important thing. Infiltration into Austria is just to reduce the resistance that may be encountered in the future.

Under the gaze of everyone, Eke slowly stood up. Of course, only as the chief of staff of the French army can answer this question accurately. "Your Majesty, after the end of the war against Britain, we have already begun to carry out war reserves. At present, except for the 89th Army, the 1st French Army and the Marine Corps, all other troops are full, their combat effectiveness has also returned to their peak, and the morale of the soldiers is also very high. Among them, the legions on the front line have made some adjustments to launch an attack on the enemy country in a very short time. Among them, Ibi

The 1st Legion of Legion is still stationed in northern Italy, while the 3rd Iberian Army is stationed in southern Slovenia. As soon as the war breaks out, these two legions can cross the Alps, cross the Sava River, and attack Austria from the south. The 2nd Iberian Army is stationed in Bavaria. In general, the war against Austria will be mainly completed by the three Iberian corps. In addition, the 89th Legion is also stationed on the Lorraine Plateau. Once the war changes, they can quickly join the war. The 3rd French Legion of Legion of Legion is deployed to Poland.

After the war began, they will work with the 2nd French Legion stationed in Prussia and the 4th French Legion stationed in the Netherlands to block the possible attack of the Russian team. We have 4 legions in reserve. Once the mobilization order is issued, they can form an army within one month. In addition, our vassal state has also developed greatly. Among them, the Kingdom of Poland has formed a total of 3 legions, a total of 120,000 troops, and the Kingdom of Prussia has also formed two legions, a total of 100,000 troops. The Kingdom of Saxony has formed four infantry divisions, a total of 60,000 troops.

Li. The Kingdom of Bavaria formed two legions with a total force of 80,000 troops, and the Kingdom of Thuringia formed a legion with a total force of 40,000 troops. Since their army was basically trained by the instructors we sent, and a large number of middle and senior generals were also held by the French, these armies were completely controlled by our country. In other words, if the war broke out, we could obtain at least 300,000 troops from the vassal country. Although their strength was not very good, they could still help us a lot, such as guarding the occupied areas and attacking guerrillas."

After listening to Ek's report, Xiao Jie nodded. Although the French army has not developed much compared to last year, its strength is undoubtedly the strongest in the entire Europe and even the world. "What about Austria and Russia? I believe that after a year of development, their military strength should have developed greatly." Xiao Jie said with a smile, as if he did not take these two countries seriously.

"In order to cope with the pressure we have put, Austria and Russia have been developing military strength over the past year, and about half of the national mountain GDP has been used. Now, Austria has an army of 700,000, divided into 15 ordinary legions and guard legions. In addition, the Austrian air force has also developed greatly. They have now mastered the manufacturing technology of medium-sized airships and equipped with 100 medium-sized airships and 300 small airships.

, an air force with a total strength of about 100,000. Although Austria has extremely large troops now, its combat effectiveness is not higher than that of our servant countries. We don’t seem to have to worry too much except for the opponent’s air force. The Russian army is maintained at around 120, of which 200,000 cavalry units dominated by Cossack cavalry. The air force has also developed greatly with the help of Austria, equipped with about 200 medium-sized airships and small airships. "Ek replied.

Everyone's faces changed a little. They did not expect that Austria and Russia would develop so strong in just one year. Indeed, they are indeed very powerful in terms of military strength. The total strength of the two countries is almost twice that of France. However, as the saying goes, soldiers are more important than elites. Even if they have an absolute advantage in military strength, once war breaks out, France will definitely be able to gain the upper hand.

"Restore the combat effectiveness of the 89th Legion and the 1st French Legion as soon as possible. Before the war begins, we must keep our military strength at its peak." Xiao Jie said seriously.

Next, the French ministries began to prepare vigorously for the upcoming war. God knows when the war will break out, and it is always good to prepare earlier. France's huge war machine began to operate.

On the afternoon of August 12, Xiao Jie was processing some documents. At this time, Eck hurriedly walked into his office.

"Dear Chief of Staff, what made you so panic? Did the damn Austria or Russia attack us?" Xiao Jie said with a smile.

"No, not Austria and Russia, it's Türkiye." Ek said gasping.

"What? Turkey!" Xiao Jie called him in surprise. Could this declining empire be brave enough to attack the powerful France? Have they forgotten their crushing defeat five years ago?

"Yes, your Majesty. Only Turkey. Yesterday morning, the Turkish Empire dispatched 180,000 troops to launch a sudden attack on the Jewish state. The Jewish team suffered heavy losses due to surprise. At present, the defense line of the Jewish state has been opened by Si, and the Turkish army is heading straight into Jerusalem." Ek calmed down and said.

"Damn it, the Jewish state has only 30,000 troops, how could it be Turkey's opponent? Jerusalem is in danger this time. Damn it, has the Jewish state not discovered Turkey's military intentions at all. If a large-scale military mobilization is not hidden," Xiao Jie said angrily. On the one hand, it was because of Turkey's sudden attack, and on the other hand, the Jewish state was so unhealthy. Jewish state is an ally of France, and Turkey is completely provoking France if it does this.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Eck asked.
