192 Carlos IV who can't see the situation

At this time, Madrid faced the city gate in the direction of the main force of the Black Dragon Legion, and the Madrid gate on the other side was also crowded with all the noble officers who had just fled and left with their last batch of wealth.

Of course, compared to the main gate that has lost order, the basic order is still maintained here. The noble officers brought a small number of trusted guards to maintain the basic order around the city gate.

The crowded defeated soldiers caused a large number of trampling and deaths. When the guard infantry of the Black Dragon Legion rushed to them, a large number of Spanish soldiers knelt down around the city gate, holding muskets with their hands, frightened by the surrender of the Spanish soldiers.

Then, the Black Dragon Legion encountered problems that they often encountered on the battlefield - too many prisoners were captured and blocked the road!

Even though these prisoners were very obedient, the number of people was there, and there were "Spanish tough guys" who did not believe in evil or did not want to be caught by the Black Dragon Legion in the labor camp until they died, raising their guns and shooting, which prevented the Black Dragon Legion from pouring into Madrid in the shortest time.

This allowed most of the last group of noble officers in Madrid to escape successfully. The Black Dragon Legion that entered the city only caught some small fish and shrimps...

Of course, ordinary Spanish soldiers have captured a lot, and the left-behind Spanish defenders, whether they are regular or city defense guards, are all destroyed.

Even though he was not arrested as a prisoner or beaten to death, he took off his military uniform and hid himself in his house.

Spanish soldiers who had no home in Madrid were in trouble. They were caught during the subsequent cleanup of the city, but local soldiers in Madrid were difficult to capture. Unless their relatives and neighbors reported it, who would know if they were soldiers or civilians?

Of course, this is a small problem for the Black Dragon Legion. What Carl is most concerned about is that his own side's combat losses remain in single digits!

Only a few guard infantrymen were sneak attacked and shot by the "Spanish tough guy" in desperate situations.

This is an inevitable problem in war.

After all, the Black Dragon Legion was an invader to the Spaniards.

If Carlos IV had not fled abroad, the Madrid people and defenders would have completely dissipated, and the Black Dragon Legion would have encountered dozens of times of resistance in the city!

After the news of Madrid falling and the Spanish royal family being forced to move the capital spread, the entire European political arena was shocked, especially the French Revolutionary Government's National Salvation Committee, which continued to send messengers to the front line to intensify their offensive against Levi's rebellious regime!

Compared to the fierce reaction of the French revolutionary government, the anti-French alliance fell into a strange calm, especially the London government, which was abnormal and no longer forced the Levi regime to force the Levi regime, but instead actively sent people to resume foreign exchanges with Levi's side.

In the eyes of European governments in this era, the fall of the capital is basically a sign of the demise of the country. Even if the country does not forget it, the government team will basically have to change...

In fact, this is true. After the news of the fall of Madrid spread in the Kingdom of Spain, regular troops and even mercenaries gathered in various Spanish provinces suddenly became panicked. Many armies even faced the orders of the moving Central Government of Carlos IV and did not go to the designated location to meet.

Instead, let the troops from their own province return to defend their hometown!

It is obvious that many provinces and autonomous regions of the Kingdom of Spain (that is, the fiefs of the nobles’ real power) all believe that the Kingdom of Spain has failed in this war and it is of little significance to continue to fight.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Wei has no power to destroy or occupy Spain at all. After his army conquered Madrid, he will return to the negotiating table sooner or later.

As for the countries in the anti-French alliance, they unanimously supported Carlos IV at this time. Except for the London government, the two-headed government, who contacted Li Wei again, other anti-French alliance countries still maintained the previous ultimatum declaration of war on Li Wei.

Unfortunately, the countries of the anti-French alliance could only condemn Li Wei, and could not carry out military attacks, and their help to Carlos IV was limited...

The countries of the anti-French alliance also knew that Li Wei could not occupy Madrid and even the Kingdom of Spain for a long time. If he continued to fight, he would only waste his own strength.

Carlos IV's "Central Army" was almost defeated, but there were large groups of private troops and mercenaries in various parts of the Spanish Kingdom.

If Li Wei really let go of his hands and feet and invades the Spanish Kingdom in an all-out way, these armies would be forced to fight against Li Wei.

What's more, except for the Catalonian region, the Black Dragon Legion has all kinds of guerrillas everywhere, and even many bandits and bandits have participated. If the Catalonian Kingdom had not protected the retreat of the Black Dragon Legion, it would have been trapped in the interior of the Kingdom of Spain with such an isolated army.

War does not mean that victory on the front battlefield can lead to a comprehensive victory.

Li Wei naturally knew this. After Carl took Madrid, because Li Wei had not completed the task of unifying France and occupying all calibrated cities in France, foreign calibrated cities could not be rewarded with the full war system, let alone opening the relevant interface of functional buildings.

Therefore, in the battle to occupy Madrid, Livi did not get any extra benefits except to get a complete victory in the battle evaluation and obtain 5 glory points and 1 building point.

Naturally, Levi had no desire to occupy Madrid for a long time. The London government's active diplomacy just gave Levi a way out and sent Manid to negotiate with British envoys to end the war in Spain.

However, when the news of Levi's willingness to negotiate came to Carlos IV's ears, he and his queen instinctively believed that Levi was under pressure from the anti-French alliance and planned to make concessions.

As a result, all war reparations and public apology proposed by Li Wei were rejected, and the armistice conditions such as war reparations and public apology were also required to leave the territory of the Spanish Kingdom immediately!

Compared to the previous rampantness, Carlos IV simply did not propose to let Levi's Black Dragon Legion help eliminate the independent Catalonian Kingdom...

Perhaps this is the only remaining reason Carlos IV has already understood that Li Wei cannot destroy the independent country he built himself, and this independent country has also provided great military assistance to Li Wei.

After the opinions of the Kingdom of Spain represented by Carlos IV were passed to the London government, the London government was also helpless. After all, in order to maintain the unity of the anti-French alliance, the London government must not give up Carlos IV, who was supported by other countries of the anti-French alliance.
