Chapter 468: Pacify Nordic

Alfrey began to gather troops in Stockholm City, preparing to launch a decisive attack on the French army at night, driving the French army out of Stockholm and severely damaging the French French 3rd Legion. In this way, the French army would not be able to launch an effective offensive against Stockholm for a long time, and then they would also be able to breathe for a certain amount of time.

What is incredible is that Yalfre miraculously assembled more than 50,000 troops. It seems that it is not only Yalfre who is crazy, but also the entire Swedish army and even the entire nation. After a closer look, these so-called "elite" armies gathered were all soldiers who lack weapons. Some of them did not even have a decent military uniform, and some even had barefoots. However, this army was highly expected by Yalfre and even expected that they could defeat the French team armed to their teeth. This was simply a daydream.

"Officers, soldiers. Now, the great Swedish palace has reached its most dangerous moment. The despicable French invaded our country and blew up our city. Now, they are massacring our people. Sweden is about to be destroyed by them. After the country is destroyed, the Swedish people and your relatives will be enslaved by the French forever. As soldiers of the kingdom, do you want to see your motherland be destroyed by the French and your relatives be enslaved by the French?" Yalfre delivered a speech with righteous words. This is not because his speech was not recognized by the Swedish army. But everyone knows that they will take advantage of this night to launch a desperate raid on the French, so they cannot shout loudly. They can silently express their love for the motherland and their relatives in their hearts.

Alfrey glanced at the Swedish soldiers with excitement, and then continued: "His Majesty the King has agreed. After the war is over, every soldier who participates in this raid will reward a lot of wealth and will be named nobles. Officers and soldiers. A beautiful tomorrow is right in front of you, and you are waiting for you to obtain it."

Almost all of them were excited. A large amount of wealth and the title of noble nobles were definitely something they had never thought of. However, this also reflected the tragic raid of this raid from another aspect. Otherwise, the Swedish king would never have given such a generous reward.

In fact, these were not what Gustav IV meant at all. He knew nothing about these. These were just lies made up by Alfre for the fierce soldiers. However, he believed that if this raid was successful, Gustav IV would definitely agree to these rewards willingly.

In any case, Yalfre finally rekindled the low-spirited Swedish army with high morale. As for what the end of these poor soldiers would end, he didn't think about it, nor was he willing to think about it. Because there was only one result in this, that was to die step by step.

At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. After a day of high-intensity battle, most of the French troops were already drowsy. In order to increase their reaction speed, they even lay directly behind the fortification and fell asleep. The front line had been silent. There were only a few sentries on the French positions, and they were still vigorously watching the movements of the Swedish army opposite. However, due to the darkness, they could see clearly the distance of one or two hundred meters ahead.

At two o'clock in the morning, the soldiers of the Swedish army woke up from their sleep under the careful guidance of the officers. Alfrey believed that this time was the best time to attack. Because he believed that the French soldiers at this time were already very tired and in a very relaxed state. At this time, the Swedish army had a great chance of winning. Only by rushing into the French position, the French team's weapon advantage could not be displayed at all. When the Swedish army launched a large-scale attack, it would be very likely to win the battle.

Alfrey was not wrong. At this time, the French army was indeed very tired. Many people were already asleep. Even a lot of sentries were dozing off.

In order to improve concealment, during the process of advancing, many Swedish troops kept their bodies low and could no longer be lowered. Even when they were only 500 meters away from the French position, they simply lay on the ground and crawled forward. Among the ruins, a Swedish army crawled forward quietly like a gecko. Because in the dark night, the distance from the sound was extremely far, they could not help but be careful.

As they moved forward, many Swedish soldiers showed excited eyes. As the positions of the French army became more and more advanced, they felt that they were getting better and better away from success.

At this time, a Swedish soldier felt that he had pressed something. It was a small protrusion that was suppressed by him, but he didn't care, thinking that it was just a small stone. However, it was the thing he thought was just a small stone that eventually killed him and caused the death of the entire Swedish army's plan.

It was a landmine. The Swedish soldier was in a bad luck and was pressed on it. In order to prevent the Swedish army from launching a night attack, the 3rd French Army buried all the only 2,000 mines in front of the position 400-500 meters. However, because the range was too large, the distribution was very sparse. But a defense net was still formed. It was impossible for the Swedish army to break through the area on a large scale without touching the mines. Unless it was only a small army that was traveling through, if you were particularly lucky, you might not step on the landmine. However, the luck of the Swedish army was obviously not very good.

When the Swedish soldier got up, the mine was detonated and he was torn to pieces by the mines, and even the Swedish soldiers around him were not spared. At the same time, the huge explosion also woke up the sleeping French soldiers. They got up and picked up their weapons and kept firing in the darkness. At the same time, a large number of flares were also fired into the sky. The Swedish army was completely exposed to the French army. The Swedish army immediately panicked. In the panic, more people stepped on the mines, causing greater panic. The French army used flares to continuously shoot Swedish soldiers.

The Swedish army had no choice now. The morale that had finally accumulated had slipped to freezing point again. If they moved forward, they would have to die. Therefore, almost all the Swedish army turned their heads and ran behind them. The Swedish army behind them thought that the fierce battle had begun, and they rushed forward desperately. In this way, the two pairs of men collided, giving the French army a chance to kill the Swedish army on a large scale.

Finally, the Swedish army finally escaped. However, the people who were able to escape back alive were not even half of the original ones. More than half of them had been killed in the battle just now. The living Swedish army was even more scared. It was impossible to get them to use weapons to fight the Fraternal ** team again. The strength of the Fraternal ** team has been deeply imprinted in their minds.

When the Swedish soldiers triggered the mine for the first time, Alfrey was sitting in the Army Department with red eyes, waiting for the news coming back from the front line. When the explosion was remembered, Alfrey immediately felt something was wrong. He immediately asked the adjutant to check what had happened. Sure enough, 10 minutes later, the adjutant came back and brought him a very bad news. That was, their actions were exposed, the French army was launching a strong attack, and the Swedish army was fleeing everywhere, with heavy casualties.

At that moment, Alfrey seemed to have all his strength evacuated and fell heavily onto the chair. His eyes were dull and he didn't say anything for a long time. At this time, he had only one thought. That was the end, Sweden was finished, and he was also finished. He knew deeply that as one of the promoters of the war's idea, France would never let him go. He would definitely be sent to the gallows.

That night, in order to escape France's trial, Alfrei committed suicide by swallowing a gun in his office.

The next morning, when the raid from the Swedish army failed, Swedish King Gustav IV also drank a glass of fragrant red wine in his bedroom and ended his life. At the same time, around him, there were more than a dozen red wine mixed with strong poisons by him.

The next morning, the French army launched another attack. The Swedish army, which had lost command and had extremely low morale, could not resist the French attack at all. More people even put down their weapons and raised their hands to the French army when they were attacked by the French army.

In the afternoon of that day, the gunshots in Stockholm were completely calmed down, and the French occupied the entire Stockholm and cleared the resistance of all Swedish troops. The Swedish Kingdom was officially destroyed.

Two days later, the Swedish army gathered in Nantelier to resist stubbornly learned that Stockholm had been occupied by the French army, King Gustav IV of Sweden committed suicide by taking poison, and Minister of Army Alfrey committed suicide by swallowing a gun. In order to save the lives of the soldiers, under the leadership of General Byron, the Swedish army walked out of the position, paid all weapons to the French army, and officially surrendered to the French army. However, General Byron also committed suicide that night.
