Lord of Industrialization
Chapter 626: Post-War Events
"What? Doss is dead?!"
"Ah? One hundred thousand people lost?!"
Frederick immediately got dressed and packed up his gold and silver and ran away as soon as he received the news.
He thought Eugene would use his mobility advantage to launch a short counterattack, and then defeat the enemy by pulling back and forth.
Unexpectedly, this guy set up a big encirclement, and defeated the enemy's main force overnight with the new army of Osmaga. The army of Madeira, which was said to be one hundred thousand, escaped less than five thousand.
Can this be left?
Frederick did not go back directly to the east, but ran all the way to the southwest. After finding a road, he followed the road to a seaport, chartered a ship and said he was going to the southern continent. On the way, he hijacked the captain to go to Lacobriga City, and then found a box car from the logistics department to drive to the front line overnight.
At this time, the redemption of the nobles had just been completed, and Eugene and his team were holding a celebration banquet, and the total ransom was written as a banner and hung on the wall.
Someone cut a big stone to use as a table, and the gold coins were piled on it. The soldiers wore the captured noble helmets and took pictures around the table in company units.
Frederick just went over to take a look, then turned to Eugene to find out what was going on.
The scene of him turning his head was photographed and became the famous photo "Grand Duke Wessen is not interested in this little money".
Eugene took Frederick to the sentry post on the hillside and told him how Metzger commanded the artillery to concentrate fire and kill Doss.
After listening, Frederick asked: "Do you think this war can still be fought?"
He sent the army to train the soldiers. If the Kingdom of Madeira was forced to retreat in one go, then there would be no point in training.
Eugene said, "We got a piece of news. Before Doss died, he said that the prince who made the greatest contribution in the war would be given the throne, so they decided that whoever defeated us would be the king."
Frederick was speechless, and finally said, "Your work opened up the situation, which is very good."
"Next, we must do a good job of defense, so as not to lose people in the end."
"Don't try hard to take this place when the 2nd or 4th Division changes defense next year."
Eugene immediately promised that he would not make mistakes.
Frederick went to rest first, and went to the Osmaga New Army the next day.
This time, the Osmaga New Army had great results. After the results presentation meeting was held at the headquarters, Mary pulled Frederick back to her room.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally there was a big fight.
During the temporary truce, Mary looked at Frederick complacently, waiting for praise.
Frederick smiled and gently held her hair and said, "I heard that you captured all nine of their princes?"
Mary snorted proudly and said, "Those idiots wanted to escape through the secret passage before I even entered the castle."
"But they forgot that the secret passage had been blocked by themselves, and finally they became prisoners."
Frederick hugged her and sighed, "Our 'Bloody Rose' is really powerful."
Mary led a commando team of less than a hundred people to raid the castle. She killed countless people along the way, and her rose armor was stained with the blood of the enemy.
The captured nobles of the Kingdom of Madeira in the castle gave her the nickname "Bloody Rose".
Mary laughed even more proudly.
This battle boosted the morale and confidence of the new army of Osmaga. Anna vigorously promoted it in the country, and even their brothers and sisters had to pinch their noses and send congratulatory telegrams.
Frederick asked, "I heard that Anna is going to give the new army a number for the Guards?"
The intelligence department of the Principality of Wessen learned of this information and sent a telegram all the way. Frederick read it before he came.
In the Osmaga Empire, all the armies with the number of the Guards have made great achievements in history and are one of the highest honors.
Mary said, "That was the rumor that my sister had someone spread. Let's prepare for it first and win a few more battles."
"By the way, there is one more thing. I don't mind telling you."
"My sister came here secretly and she is probably coming soon."
Frederick was shocked. The queen of a country traveled thousands of kilometers secretly. The soldiers on the front line were naturally grateful. Then was the hometown safe?
He thought it was possible. Mary had just won a big victory, and Anna's reputation soared. No one would be blind to make trouble at this time.
"Oh, right!" Frederick remembered something, "Did the Venetians come to see you?"
Mary shook her head and said, "No."
"Never mind those people."
After the two stayed in the bedroom for a few days, Frederick returned to the St. George Fortress. He should also prepare to return home.
Penelope, the daughter of Archduke Suarez, had been waiting for him here.
This was the first time the two had met since they separated in the Helvetic Federation.
Penelope was in charge of the family business recently, and she came to Frederick to discuss business.
"We have taken all the captives this time, just in time to build the railway."
Penelope learned his traditional skills from Frederick.
She continued, "But there is not enough food, and we need your help."
Archduke Suarez was fighting the Kingdom of Gaul on the front line, and he was short of food and grass. It was good to build railways with 60,000 or 70,000 captives, but it made the already insufficient food and grass worse.
Frederick had no other choice, and finally said: "We can only purchase a large amount of food from the southern continent."
"I will talk to the Cyclops Island and ask their merchants for help."
Penelope said hesitantly: "But we don't have enough money."
Frederick also said with a bitter face: "This is a problem."
Penelope asked again: "Can you see what we can mortgage for you?"
Frederick really couldn't think of anything that Archduke Suarez could mortgage for a loan.
"Forget it." He shook his head at last, "The money for buying grain doesn't need to be mortgaged."
Some things are tacitly understood. If there is no physical mortgage, then it is a credit mortgage. If Archduke Suarez defaults on his debt in the future, the trade between the Principality of Wessen and him will stop immediately.
Penelope nodded and understood what he meant.
In the following days, Frederick presided over the post-war summary of the Western Front Corps during the day.
From ordinary soldiers to Eugene, everyone wrote a battle summary within three days after the war, analyzing their own decisions and behaviors in the battle, which work was done well, which was not done well, and which was done wrong. There was a special department in the staff responsible for statistical compilation.
Penelope was busy with the reception and transportation of prisoners, which required the assistance of the Wessen Army's transportation troops, and coordinated with Frederick at night.
Anna quietly arrived at the front line. Frederick had no time to see her for a while, but just adjusted some cameras to record her actions on the front line.
A series of photos, including Her Majesty the Queen talking cordially with soldiers, Her Majesty the Queen changing the dressings for the wounded in the field hospital, and soldiers supporting Her Majesty the Queen, appeared in all newspapers of the Osmaga Empire soon after.
Frederick and Anna were going to leave on the same ship, but Pope Valentine himself suddenly appeared with a large number of cardinals and other priests of all levels, and they met at the dock.
The two could only accompany the charlatans back to the front line, and also attended the ceremony where Valentine bestowed the Paladin of Metzger.
Valentine tactfully asked Frederick and Anna if they could let some people from the church come to gild. Anna suddenly felt unwell, and Frederick carried her and drove away by boat overnight.
The post-war celebration of this battle was not only in the Duchy of Wessen and the Osmaga Empire, but also in Eugene's hometown, the Kingdom of Gaul.
The artillery instructors of the Kingdom of Gaul were not treated as prisoners of war, and Eugene knew one of them. They were only prohibited from entering and leaving military strongholds, and they could move freely in the residential areas of the fortress on weekdays.
After the war, they went to the Gallic Kingdom camp with a caravan of particularly large onions, the news that Eugene had annihilated 100,000 enemies, and the spoils of war gifts that Eugene gave to his father and the king.
Old Louis was silent for a long time. His previous judgment was wrong. The Wesson Army really went to fight the pagans and annihilated their allies.
When Prince Moritz heard that his son had defeated 100,000 enemy troops, he was so surprised that his mouth could not close for ten minutes.
The news was passed back to the Gallic Kingdom. Because Eugene went to war as a member of the Holy Knights of the Church of Light, the church naturally put in a lot of effort in its propaganda.
However, far away from the battlefield, the content of the propaganda became weird.
