074 Can't Go Back Anymore
On the battlefield like a sea of corpses, the Black Dragon Legion's cleaning team carefully and added a bayonet to each enemy's corpse.
After this war, the Black Dragon Legion not only lost a large amount of troops, but also exhausted two precious ammunitions, such as thunder bombs and flower bombs.
The most important thing is that due to the insufficient related raw materials, the military factories in Rennes cannot continue to produce flowering bullets in large quantities. The production requirements for thunder bombs are relatively low. There are substitutes for raw materials, but some can be produced.
As long as there is enough black gunpowder, it is not difficult to produce.
As for metal raw materials, if they are not enough, they can also "purchase" household tools such as iron pots and kitchen knives from citizens.
Li Wei was still very kind and did not let the soldiers under his command rob it clearly, but instead beat the IOU officially recognized by the Rennes Municipal Government. This IOU can offset the taxes of the Rennes Municipal Government!
For this reason, Li Wei once again increased the tax quota of Rennes...
Well, I am mainly worried that everyone has too many IOUs and can’t consume them all, that’s a waste!
This IOU is in the bayonet of the Black Dragon Legion... Oh no, it should be said that it is under the credibility guarantee of the Rennes Municipal Government, and it is actually equivalent to a treasury bond.
But Li Wei has not yet established himself as king, so it is called IOU.
When Li Wei founded the country one day or restored the old system of the French Kingdom, the IOU he issued was a legal orthodox government bond!
Well, the kind of government bonds without interest, after all, Li Wei is too poor now and can only rely on bayonets to threaten the public to buy government bonds and barely survive.
Under the exploitation of Rennes...a healthy and good tax policy, Li Wei relied on the financial resources of a capital city and did not fall into a situation where he was exhausted from ammunition and food.
After the war, Li Wei discovered why those big countries rarely go to war? Wars are really too expensive!
If Li Wei had not had a total war system to help brainwash a large number of soldiers, workers and even officials, Li Wei could not afford a high-intensity war!
If it were a normal army, Li Wei would have fought a series of battles, and the pension alone would have made him bankrupt countless times.
As the provincial coalition forces of the defeated side, it is naturally impossible to rescue the wounded people left on the battlefield.
The direct result of this is that the number of dead people in the provincial coalition forces far exceeds that of the dead!
The Black Dragon Legion is still professional.
As for the Black Dragon Legion's own wounded soldiers, there are very few. The reason is very simple. These brainwashed soldiers will choose to fight until the last moment. As long as they are not missing their arms and legs, even if their intestines flow all over the ground, they will also pounce on the enemy before they die!
The brainwashing effect of the full-scale war system training camp is very good. After depriving the soldiers of unnecessary emotions, these brainwashing soldiers have far more tolerance for pain than ordinary people.
It’s not that they can’t feel the pain, but that they can use unwavering willpower to suppress the pain that pierces the heart for the glory of Levi!
When the Black Dragon Legion cleared the battlefield, it found many soldiers who were not fatal but died of excessive blood loss.
If these people retreat in time when they are injured, they can actually be cured. It’s a pity that their loyalty does not allow them to escape...
However, it was precisely because the Black Dragon Legion was so desperate that it defeated the provincial coalition forces, which had the advantage of both number and firepower.
"I didn't expect that the provincial coalition forces were so desperate. Could it be that these were all done by Wallace?
However, after being repelled this time, the provincial coalition forces had no new force to replenish them and should be unable to launch an attack.
I can give me some time to breathe and rest.”
After inspecting the battlefield, Li Wei thought to himself.
However, the battle in Rennes has not ended in the assessment of the total war system, so Li Wei has not received any reward prompts from the total war system.
When the Black Dragon Legion cleared the battlefield, plundered the spoils (the provincial coalition officers and soldiers lost a lot of muskets and ammunition), and repaired the chest barrier defense line fortifications.
The remaining main forces of the provincial coalition forces have retreated to a temporary camp more than ten miles away from the suburban defense line.
The provincial coalition led by Wallace and his group came to Rennes, and their main energy was focused on the offensive, so they did not arrange too much manpower to build the military camp, which made the military camp look very simple and had not even built the chest wall.
The entire military camp was made of a wooden fence, and rows of soldiers' tents that could not be seen at the end.
Of course, due to the huge losses of the provincial coalition forces, many tents can be abandoned.
At this time, the largest military tent in the center of the military camp was in fierce debate.
"Our army is no longer able to fight again. The Li Wei rebels in Rennes will lead their troops out anytime and anywhere. Relying on the current morale of the army, it is estimated that the Li Wei rebels will be defeated by the Li Wei rebels in one encounter, so we should completely stay away from Rennes!"
"If we stay away from Rennes, it means that the battle of Rennes is completely defeated. Don't you know what this means politically?
Everyone present must bear the responsibility of defeat. Our best outcome is to take off our official skin and the withdrawn provincial coalition forces have nothing to do with us!"
This time, no generals participated in the military convention, and they were all "soldiers leading the army", that is, the real leadership of the provincial coalition forces.
It is the leadership rather than the command level, because most of the members present are military laymen.
It can be said that this failure was not only because of the poor quality of the provincial coalition forces, but also closely related to the intrigue of these military laymen.
It was their constant use of francs that led to the 20,000 provincial coalition forces being injected with chicken blood, and in just three days, they beat themselves up...
Of course, these people would not think they did something wrong and used francs to encourage morale, isn't it right?
The wrong thing is just that they were defeated!
If this battle can be won, the capitalists who use francs to encourage morale will be "heroes"!
Maybe, when the Paris government is happy, it will issue medals with very high cost and collections of high-value medals.
I have to say that the invention of the medal has reduced the cost of rewarding heroes in the country, and how much material reward can a medal be worth!
The illusory thing like honor is used to replace financial expenditures, and the awardees are willing to accept it, so the invention of the medal is a very successful political show.
Unfortunately, these capitalists have no chance to be heroes now, and if they are not careful, they will become grandma...
The MP who spoke about to retreat immediately calmed down after being scolded by Wallace.
The reason why he was in a hurry to retreat was that he was worried that Li Wei's rebels would come after him and that his life would be lost.
Now that they were reminded by Wallace, they immediately realized that they really could not retreat!
