Chapter 997 Fanny Court's Decision

Her breathing became rapid, perhaps from being buttoned too tightly, or perhaps from the fact that the men's military uniform's bust didn't quite fit her size.

The men on the side generally lowered their gazes by 45°, and their breathing became rapid.

Franz was completely unmoved, which aroused the admiration of the two girls in the room.

But what they didn't know was that Franz had seen something even more exciting.

Bordeaux looked away and coughed twice. His intention was clearly to remind Fanny Cote of his words and attitude.

"I will not sacrifice my soldiers in vain, but you can rest assured that I will drive the invaders of the Second French Republic out of Alsace."

Franz made an unlimited promise, which was a reassurance to the other party and a step back.

But this obviously did not satisfy Fanny Cote.

"Archduke Franz, I am very disappointed in you! I heard that you are a born saint, a role model for royal children, the greatest scientist and investor of this century, a true philanthropist and a martyr.

But I don't think so, I think you're just a hypocritical bastard! "

It happened that a waiter came in with wine. Fanny Cote excitedly grabbed it and drank it, and then said angrily.

"Thank you for the wine. We French people will protect our own people. We don't need help from others, and we won't hide here and sit back!"

Fanny Cote's behavior was enough to cause a lot of trouble for her and the entire Orleans Dynasty. Bordeaux even felt that she should be detained and tortured to find out if anyone was behind it.

However, Franz is not that small-minded yet, and he will not blackmail others with this, but he still can't help complaining in his heart.

"Your army is all German, and most of the food and supplies are donated by us. It's a shame you can say such a thing."

Franz already had a countermeasure in mind for the defenders in Celesta City, but he still needed the help of his staff to repair possible loopholes.

In fact, Franz had already sent people to spread rumors before that, claiming that the German Allied Forces would enter the Upper Rhine Province (the Upper Rhine Province is in the south of Alsace).

And this is enough for Bono de Cullen to think about it, because the Upper Rhine Province has a developed water system and has no troops to defend at all. Colmar's defense is not even as good as Celesta, let alone mercenaries and militia Fight to the death.

That's right, Franz plans to directly bypass Celesta and attack France's vulnerable rear. This will make Bono de Cullen's defense a joke, and it will also be easy to win the consent of the German Confederation. .

However, Franz was awakened by a commotion early the next morning. When he finished dressing, he found that there was already a lot of people outside, and groups of officers and soldiers were gathering together to discuss something.

"Bordeaux! What's going on?"

Franz shouted, and Colonel Bordeaux immediately ran over.

"Your Highness, the French must go it alone."

"Go it alone?"

Franz continued with some confusion.

"Didn't they remember all the bumps they had yesterday?"

"No, Your Highness. It seems that the French are planning to launch a general attack."

"General attack?"

Franz was a little curious, but he suddenly remembered Miss Fanny Cote from yesterday.

"What a madman! What does she think of street fighting? Playing house? This is the most cruel kind of fighting."

Suddenly the cheers and whistles became louder, and Fanny Cote appeared in front of the Orleans army in a military uniform with a solemn expression, a determined light in her light gray eyes, her short black hair fluttering in the wind, and a general's uniform. The officer's military uniform and the sword on his waist give people a heroic feeling.

When Fanny Cote appeared, the soldiers of the Orleans Legion held their breath and the noise seemed to stop for an instant.

The whistles of the German Allied Forces who were watching the battle became louder and louder. After all, women were rare animals in the army, and most soldiers had only seen them at the entrance of the military prostitute camp.

Before the end of World War II, military prostitution camps were common in European countries, and France did not abolish the military prostitution system until after 1960.

That's why the soldiers of the German Allied Forces were so excited when they saw a woman in military uniform. Of course, they were also curious about how that woman became a general.

However, the Alsace Corps, which was deeply influenced by French culture, was much more solemn. After all, they knew that only women, dwarfs, and foreigners could save France.

The high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the Allied Forces Command have a strong interest in them. In addition to their desire for beauty, wealthy aristocratic widows also have a fatal attraction for them.

An aristocratic young man with oily hair and pink face suddenly took out a book of poems and recited.

"Ah! How shining this lady is on the battlefield at this moment, she reminds me of the charming moonlight. But the moon waxes and wanes, and my love for her only grows."

Another elegant scum wearing gold-rimmed glasses crossed his legs and shook the red wine glass in his hand.

"If that woman wins, I'll let her have dinner with me next Sunday night."

"It's really interesting. I was reading a very interesting book recently and I was looking for someone to discuss it with."

Several well-known playboys in the German Confederation are doing their best to build momentum for themselves, while the socialites on the side have begun to make up the story of the duchess killing her husband and father, and fooling around with the soldiers.

Don't doubt the professionalism of these people. They study these things every day without doing anything else, and they naturally have it at their fingertips.

However, Franz was not very interested in this kind of thing. Attacking a city is not an easy thing.

At this time, Fanny Court was standing in a very dangerous position. Suddenly, a gunshot rang out and a bullet flew past her ear, knocking down a soldier in front of her.

However, Fanny Court did not panic, but continued her pre-war mobilization.

This made Franz admire him a little. When the French gunman poked his head again, the gunshot rang out, but this time it was the gunman who was shot.

Fanny Court looked in the direction of the Allied Command, and Franz waved his hand.

Although in Franz's eyes, Fanny Court's behavior was no different from courting death, but he was willing to give this little widow from Orleans a chance to create a miracle.

However, Franz was determined not to get involved in the French Civil War. After all, he still had at least two civil wars to fight, and he didn't think anyone could puppet a great power like France.

Fanny Cote looked in the direction of Franz and gnashed her teeth. Although she had never been to a military school, she knew very well that the German coalition had hundreds of thousands of people, and they were well-equipped and eager to fight.

If the coalition wanted to annihilate the invaders in the city, it would definitely not be a difficult task. Fanny Cote received the order to preserve her strength and wait and see, looking for an opportunity to provoke the coalition and the rebels (referring to the Second French Republic) to a larger-scale decisive battle.

But after she learned about the heroic deeds of the residents of Celesta in fighting the French army, she could not wait a moment. She wanted to liberate the city and kill the invaders.
