Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Since Marie wants revenge, Richelieu will definitely not stop her, and even if he stops her, it is unlikely.

    The furious Queen Mary wanted to avenge her son, and anyone who tried to stop her would be in trouble.

    This point is beyond doubt.

    Richelieu is not a fool, how could he get into trouble at this time.

    Therefore, when the French came to their senses, the church was in trouble.

    You know, the French didn¡¯t grow up vegetarian.

    Since the church is unruly, the French cannot be blamed for retaliating.

    ¡°In short, the things Jenny and the others did secretly can be regarded as completely opening Pandora¡¯s box.

    This time, both the French and the church, who had suffered heavy losses, no longer adhered to the rules.

    The two sides, who had already started fighting, continued to fight in the dark world, which ultimately resulted in huge losses for both sides.

    At the same time, there is no possibility of reconciliation.

    Of course, the empire is very happy to see this happen.

    ¡°In the concession on the outskirts of Marseille, the intelligence department has received the most reliable information.

    After all, after so many days of hiding, Jenny and the others have arrived at the concession.  With the arrival of Jenny and the others, the reason for the assassination was finally exposed within the Intelligence Department.

    Although this decision was made by Jenny personally, looking at the current results, it seems to be quite good.

    Therefore, the head of the Marseille Intelligence Department did not blame Jenny.

    However, he still wrote a letter with the news and sent it back to America when there was a ship.

    ¡°For things like Jenny to make decisions without permission, to put it mildly, it means not listening to the organization.

    Such a trend cannot be allowed to open up.

    Otherwise, if everyone behaves like Jenny, how can the empire be managed?

    certainly.  Jenny and the others were under the management of the religious office and had nothing to do with the intelligence department.

    ¡°Then, let¡¯s leave Jenny¡¯s matter to the religious office.

    As for people like Jenny, they used other identities to temporarily hide in the concession.

    ¡°At least, they will have to live in the concession for a long time, and they will not be able to leave until the French and the church are at loggerheads.

    This is also for their safety.

    Although what Jenny and the others do is very secretive, no one can guarantee that the secret will not be revealed.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? That would be serious.

    Therefore, according to Jenny¡¯s ideas and the ideas of the Marseille Concession Intelligence Department, Jenny and the others must be living in the concession for a while.

    If the news leaks out, the empire will also be unable to bear it.

    The reason is very simple. The Marseille Concession Intelligence Department has received the news of the assassination of little Louis XIII.

    And the fact that little Louis XIII died in this assassination shocked the Ministry of Intelligence even more.

    As Mary started a series of revenge actions, Jenny and the others became even more cautious.

    If Mary knew the truth of the matter, maybe this bitch would go crazy.

    And once a woman goes crazy.  Especially when a powerful woman goes crazy, it's quite remarkable¡ª¡ª

    Dividing line¡ª¡ª

    go ahead!

    Groups of French soldiers lined up neatly, taking steps in unison under the annual slogan of the non-commissioned officer.

    Opposite them, there are also neatly arranged troops of the coalition of church princes.

    Because Zhao Hongyu appeared in this era.  And it brought the "queue to kill" tactic, which was novel and effective at the time and was quickly introduced to European countries.

    The allied forces of the French and the ecclesiastical princes fought for more than two years.  Soldiers have already been trained to use this method of warfare.

    After all, this tactic has no technical content, and anyone with a little military knowledge can learn it.

    only.  France and the ecclesiastical vassal states do not have cheating devices like Zhao Hongyu's, so they can easily obtain sophisticated muskets.

    The gun-making technology of this era is still very backward.

    Therefore, even though they learned the Song Empire's "line up and shoot" tactics, the muskets they used still didn't pass the test.

    The muskets used by both the French and the ecclesiastical princes are basically still??That very heavy old musket.

    This old-fashioned musket was criticized by the Chinese people in the concession because of its slow firing speed and the need for a supporting frame.

    Although the French begged the empire to support a batch of imperial-made muskets, the empire did not agree to this.

    "As long as there is no water in the brain, it is of course impossible to agree to this request.

    Therefore, the soldiers on both sides of the battlefield are still using heavy old-fashioned muskets.

    But no matter what, after all, I have learned the "line up and shoot" strategy, and the effect is still much improved compared to before.

    Rows of soldiers fired neatly, which greatly improved the shooting probability, which had a low hit rate.

    At the same time, the five-stage shooting tactic was also used in the war.

    However, France and the vassal states do not have many muskets, so their respective musketeer teams are not very large.

    Therefore, the main force in the war was the soldiers who lined up in Spanish square formations and used cold weapons.

    The armies of both sides approached slowly and stopped at the same time when they were still some distance away.

    The commanders on both sides of them unanimously placed the musketeers in the middle of the army, with the cavalry or Spanish phalanx on the two wings.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Boom!

    Smoke is rising and filling the air.

    The musketeers in the middle began to shoot each other, and unlucky guys were constantly being hit and fell to the ground.

    You must know that the probability of being hit by a musket in this era is very low. The one who can be hit is definitely a fighter jet among the unlucky ones, and the most unlucky guy.

    After all, the muskets of this era have no ballistics.

    And, it¡¯s still a round lead bullet.

    Therefore, after this kind of lead bullet is fired, it will often deviate from the target by a large distance.

    This problem continued unsolved even into the nineteenth century.

    Although the crackling gunfire on the battlefield may seem scary, it is actually not scary at all.

    Otherwise.  In another time and space, in those European film and television dramas, you would not see that when two armies are fighting, they will only fire guns when they are very close.

    But even so, the probability of hitting the opponent is not very high.

    This shows how low the hit rate is.

    Of course, this refers to the European muskets. The empire's gunfire has a high hit rate.

    After all, the Empire¡¯s muskets are all ordered from the virtual world, and their sophistication is unmatched by other countries in this world.

    But.  The soldiers of this period didn't know this yet.

    So, on the battlefield, you can see the soldiers whose faces turned pale from the crackling gunfire.

    If you are a little braver, you will be so frightened that you will tremble and lose your mind.

    The musketeers in the middle began to shoot at each other, and the two wing troops of the warring parties began to slowly move closer.

    The secret battle between assassins has now evolved into a military confrontation.

    The originally brief period of peace was broken, and the war was ignited again.

    This battlefield.  It is a basin on the French border, surrounded by many hills and dense jungles.

    Jenny and the others had already received the news that the French were going to start a new war with the vassal states.

    Therefore, Jenny brought a few men with her.  and several members of the Marseille Intelligence Department came to a hill on the edge of the battlefield.

    Jenny, holding a monocular, looked at the battle in the basin in the distance with an indifferent expression.

    And beside her, several members of the Intelligence Department.  Then keep recording.

    "The French musketeers' hit rate is too low. They still use old-fashioned muskets, even though they have learned our tactics and five-stage shooting tactics. Unfortunately, because the muskets are not powerful, they cannot achieve more brilliant results.  ¡±

    One of the young members of the intelligence department said to his companions while recording.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????And his companions agree very much.

    "Hey, so what if these bastards have learned. It's not enough if they have fighting skills and tactics, but their weapons can't keep up. So our empire can still be at least a few decades ahead, so there's no need to worry at all.  them."

    Someone said in agreement.

    "Are you observing these things?" Jenny was not shy about the chat among several people, so Jenny heard everything clearly.Next, he asked casually.

    "Yes, we need to grasp and understand both of them in time. Once they have a breakthrough in weapons, it will be very dangerous for the empire."

    The members of the intelligence department who were taking notes heard this and responded to Jenny.

    "Technology is always improving, and society is constantly developing. We can't guarantee whether the French and the ecclesiastical princes will make breakthroughs in weapons. What we have to do is to master their weapons.  Keep up with the latest trends, understand their situation, and know your enemy and yourself.¡±

    "Once they really make a breakthrough in this area, we'd better make certain judgments and preparations." This is about some of the empire's alert policies towards Europe, and Jenny certainly won't understand it.

    "If there is a technological breakthrough, what will your intelligence department do?" Jenny asked.

    Several intelligence agents who were taking notes stopped their pens, looked at each other and laughed.

    "Destroy it! Or kill the relevant people, so that they will not have a breakthrough in weapons as much as possible."

    Jenny nodded and continued to focus on the battlefield in the basin.

    To be honest, she has no interest in these things.

    At this time, on the battlefield, the armies of the French and the allied forces of the church princes had begun to contact. On the outside of the Spanish square formations on both sides, the spearmen holding spears began to wave their spears continuously and stabbed their opponents.  .

    The cavalry of both sides were still parked behind their respective camps and had not yet been dispatched.

    "It's really boring. Europeans fight too well." Jenny watched with relish, but the Chinese intelligence agents who observed and took notes kept complaining.

    "After a while, a group of troops already stationed in Egypt will be transferred back. By then, our concession will be much safer."

    The leader of this group of Chinese intelligence agents came to Jenny's side at this time. He looked at the battle in the basin in the distance and said with twinkling eyes.

    Hearing this, Jenny put down the monocular in her hand and turned back to look at the young man standing next to her.

    "Are you talking about the Imperial Volunteers who supported the French earlier?"

    The young man nodded: "Yes." (To be continued)
