Chapter 232 "Divine Justice and Redemption"

Spanish, open the door and send "God".

British, open the door and send "civilization".

Americans, open the door and send "freedom".

Franz's slogan is: open the door and send "justice".

Franz looked at the battlefield filled with smoke and was a little dazed. To be honest, he didn't expect this battle to be so tragic.

After all, in the war reports he had seen before, basically, destroying 10% of the troops would cause the enemy to collapse and surrender, and then the other side would start to clean up the battlefield and capture prisoners.

In the battle just now, the Austrians fired more than 500 new rodless spin rockets in just ten minutes, which caused a great blow to the morale of the indigenous soldiers in a short period of time.

What's more terrible is that it happened to be the dry season at this time, and the hay on the ground was ignited. The fire spread quickly, and many indigenous soldiers had a chance to escape.

But the sudden cavalry charge of the enemy shattered this hope. The final result was that almost none of the 5,000 soldiers survived, and what was even more terrifying was that they were all surrounded and killed in a small area.

The strong smell of burnt corpses around was nauseating, and Franz felt that the steak in his hand was no longer fragrant.

Archduke Friedrich on the side showed a fanatical expression.

"Franz, you are a genius! I have never seen such a beautiful encirclement and annihilation battle. I want to record it. I think my father and elder brother will be very willing to discuss this new tactic with you."

This compliment made Franz feel unworthy. In fact, this is not a new tactic at all. It is just a copy of the firepower advantage theory. Simply put, it is to wash the ground with rockets bought with money, and then send cavalry to pursue decisively and harvest heads when the enemy's morale collapses.

It's just that due to the advantages of terrain and timing (favorable factors), the results of the battle were greatly magnified.

The battle just now made Franz start to think about a question. Can the infantry really maintain morale under such firepower? And even if the army's morale did not collapse, how could flesh and blood withstand the sea of ​​fire bombing?

What is more worrying is whether the secrets of the successful use of these new weapons will be used by other countries and used against the Austrian army in the war?

"Uncle Friedrich, this is an unequal battle, and our purpose remains unchanged."

"I know, we are talking about business. Don't worry, I am not a butcher, and I don't want to kill all these natives, although I think it would be easier."

The chiefs and messengers of the surrounding tribes were already scared, watching Franz and Friedrich talking and laughing beside them.

Although they didn't know what the two were talking about, they knew that the two teenagers in front of them could easily decide their life and death, honor and disgrace.

It was Franz's decision to invite the natives to visit, because he didn't have time to convince the tribes one by one, so he hoped to show them the pros and cons in the simplest and most direct way.

At this time, Franz reminded the translator to remind the tribal leaders to consider signing the protection agreement again, and asked them to talk about their grievances with the Akan tribe.

Actually, it's funny to say that there are hundreds of languages ​​in the land of Ivory Coast, but the common languages ​​are Portuguese and French.

Of course, from now on, they have to learn one more language, that is German.

Seeing that the chiefs signed the protection agreement one after another, Franz couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief that his goal had been achieved. As for the basket of grievances between them and the Akan tribe, it is simply too numerous to be told even if it takes seven days and seven nights.

What about robbing water sources, robbing livestock, robbing women, small things like they don't use toilet paper when going to the toilet, and they have stepped on ants to death, etc., big things like the Akan tribe launched several wars and plundered a lot of land and population, etc.

People are always competitive. You said the Akan tribe robbed you of five sheep, and I said they robbed me of ten sheep. Later, even the formation of the Hazara Desert was caused by the Akan tribe.

Although they are a group of natives, they can become high-level officials and know how to flatter and change their attitude. After seeing Franz's powerful military force, these chiefs and messengers flattered Franz.

Franz knew that they were forced to survive, so he did not expose them, but directly gave them a big gift, that is, all the population and land of the Akan tribe.

In fact, those tribal chiefs had long wanted to take advantage of the fire, but they were shocked by the strength of the Austrian army. Now that they have obtained Franz's permission, those tribal chiefs who are usually high and mighty immediately prostrated themselves on the ground.

Oshioyama Oon may have grown up in a shrine and been trained as a shrine maiden. She always gives people a feeling of superiority. Coupled with her cold eyes and cold appearance, people will mistake her for a fairy who is not in touch with the world.

After that, all her behaviors were in line with the standards and very polite, but she gave people a feeling of being rejected.

At this time, Franz looked at Oshioyama Oon again, and their eyes met. She inadvertently showed a flattering smile.

Franz nodded with satisfaction. It seems that this scene shocked her.

In fact, it was more than shocking. It simply refreshed her three views. The shogunate warriors that Oshioyama Oon had seen before seemed to be worse than those African natives holding flintlock rifles.

The shogunate army of the same period was still equipped with a large number of cold weapons, and there were even samurai masters holding knives to show off their military power on the streets.

When suppressing the Osaka rebellion, the iron artillery team only appeared once, and it was specifically used to deal with Oshio Heihachiro's main force.

At other times, the main way to deal with the rebels was to equip them with spears and ashigaru wearing haori. Only the officers leading the team had samurai swords. (During Japan's 200 years of isolation, the updating of weapons almost stagnated)

Even so, the rebels were unable to resist, and this time Franz eliminated thousands of indigenous people. Although they were barbarians, they were equipped with advanced muskets.

Oshiosugiin felt that the shogunate's officers and soldiers might not perform any better than those African tribes in front of Franz's army. She was even sure that as long as Franz's army set foot on Japanese soil, it would be a matter of time before they conquered it.

Although she is Japanese, she wants someone to conquer that land, not just for revenge, but also for redemption.

Of course, this was all what Franz instilled in her. After all, this is what later generations of Americans did, cultivating a large number of spiritual Americans under the banner of "freedom and democracy."

The earliest Spaniards, under the banner of "holy war", gave away Catholicism and robbed gold and silver. Later, the British seized colonies all over the world in the name of sending "civilization" to them.

Later, Americans used the banner of "freedom, democracy and human rights" to stir up shit and steal oil everywhere.

Religious flags are too old and outdated; sending civilization is the British and French way, which has no characteristics; American flags are inappropriate for Austria to use.

If Franz used it, he would either be imprisoned in a lunatic asylum, or Austria would be broken into a dozen pieces in minutes.

So Franz customized a new banner for the Austrian Empire at this time, "Holiness, Justice and Redemption."

He characterized Oshiosugi Yin as a "holy avenger" who upholds justice for the weak and redeems the ignorant.

This same theory can also explain current wars and any wars in the future.

At this time, Miss Shanyin was thinking about it. Franz wiped out the Akan tribe to uphold justice, signed the protection treaty to protect the weak indigenous people from the great powers, and established the colony to redeem the ignorant local people.
