Chapter 1412: Secret Transport Tool

At this moment, in Poland.

The Longyan Army had long since arrived in Poland in secret, but as this place belonged to the Ottoman territory, they had not yet launched an offensive.

As the saying goes, if one wishes to succeed in their work, one must first sharpen their tools.

Prince Yong was busily preparing for the construction of the factory, and as of today, it was nearing completion.

Once the first batch of transport equipment was built, the offensive could begin.

At this moment, Hamid walked over.

"Oh, my respected friend." Hamid looked at Prince Yong and offered the highest etiquette.

Hamid worshipped Liu Zheng and worshipped Longyan, so he treated Prince Yong as if he were his own dearest friend.

The two grown men smiled and exchanged a polite hug.

"Hamid, isn't the front line demanding right now? How do you have time to come over?"

Hamid laughed twice and said, "That group of Russians, they are usually brave in battle and have hot tempers, but today, for some reason, they just won't fight."

"No matter how you curse or even give them the middle finger, calling them like a woman, no one responds."

"I found it boring, so I retreated," Hamid said sullenly.

He felt that if he didn't fight for a day, his whole body felt wrong.

Prince Yong laughed upon hearing this; they had also fought against the Russians.

The temperament of the Russian Army was of the particularly hot-headed variety; they absolutely would not allow anyone to give them the middle finger, let alone be called like a woman.

If you did that, you had better pray for good luck, because next, you would face a situation where only one of you would survive.

But this time, the Russians were not provoked and did not charge out, which made Prince Yong somewhat curious.

"Be careful that those Russians aren't up to something," Prince Yong warned.

Hamid waved his hand fearlessly and said lightly, "I have already sent people to scout; it is said that the Russian high command issued an order not to let that bastard Boerniefu continue fighting."

"They said they want to defend the city and prevent our sneak attacks!"

Prince Yong nodded; it was normal for Russia to adopt such a policy, as Hamid had been tireless in his sneak attacks lately.

Especially since Hamid had received the bicycles brought by Prince Yong and his men, he had become even more adept at sneak attacks.

With bicycles, they could move quickly, strike, and run; by the time the Russians reacted, they had long since escaped far away.

Moreover, bicycles made little noise when ridden, which was a massive advantage compared to those warhorses.

Bicycles were good things indeed.

"Perhaps the Russians need to rest recently; after all, with this divine tool, the Russians are keeping their distance from us," Prince Yong laughed.

Hamid smiled; this was true. With bicycles, sneak attacks were always successful.

That group of Russians couldn't even catch them, and Hamid's men would have long since vanished without a trace.

This left those Russians feeling incredibly frustrated for a time; perhaps that was the reason they were avoiding battle recently, to avoid encountering shameless sneak attacks.

But coming back to the point, Hamid looked at the factory that was to be completed today; he naturally knew what this factory was going to produce, but Hamid had never seen that kind of transport tool before.

In short, after Hamid heard what Prince Yong told him, although he didn't understand it, he was greatly shocked and immediately took out money to fund Prince Yong's factory construction.

"Is it about to start production?" Hamid smiled, looking at Prince Yong like a fox.

Prince Yong also revealed a smile; this transport tool was a small invention that Liu Zheng had led his research team to develop while bored in Longyan.

He hadn't expected it to come in handy today.

"It is estimated that the first batch of finished products will be out in seven days. By then, no matter how we stretch the front line, we can quickly build up combat power, and the transport of grain and supplies will no longer be a difficulty."

Hamid revealed a look of anticipation; as long as the first batch of this transport tool was produced,

advancing into Russia would be a piece of cake.

But at this moment, Prince Yong revealed a look of worry.

Hamid noticed it and asked, "Is Prince Yong worried that Prussia cannot hold on?"

Prince Yong looked at Hamid and nodded.

Prussia was Longyan's ally in Europe, and they had come here specifically to aid Prussia, but Prussia was currently surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Longyan and its allied forces could only draw fire on other battlefields to give Prussia a slight chance to catch its breath.

But today, for some reason, the Russians were not responding to the fight.

Although it might be due to his sneak attacks over the past few days, it was also possible that Russia had launched a military operation against Prussia.

They were currently attacking Prussia.

Hamid pondered for a while and said, "Since the Russians won't come out of the city to fight, let's attack the city, give the Russians a heavy blow, and force them to come out and fight!"

Prince Yong thought about it but refused, saying, "No, if we take the initiative to attack, we might fall into the Russians' trap."

"Attacking a city is not favorable for us. Sneak attacks allow us to travel light and retreat quickly, but attacking a city does not; we would have to carry heavy firepower weapons and transport grain."

"If we want the Russians to be convinced and come out to fight, it is absolutely impossible to send just one or two small squads; we would have to send a large army at the very least."

"But although a frontal assault could take the city, our losses would also be very heavy. If I intended to launch a frontal assault, I wouldn't be building a factory here."

Hamid thought about it and agreed; the losses from a frontal assault were too great, the Russians were holding their positions, and their own supply lines were stretched too thin.

This would definitely be a Protracted War, not a sneak attack where you hit and run.

You couldn't run away from this.

If an accident happened to the supply line, his own army would definitely be constrained, and that would be troublesome.

"Sigh, it seems this is Prussia's fate. I hope the Lord can protect them through this crisis."

Prince Yong had no other Method; the top priority now was to get the factory here built and put into production as quickly as possible.

Only in this way could Prussia's safety be guaranteed.

At this moment, in Prussia.

Frederick II furrowed his brows.

His situation is now extremely dangerous; not only is he surrounded by enemies on all sides, but because of the partition of Poland, Prussia has paid the price of losing most of its land.

This has caused Prussia, which already had little arable land, to decline further, and now Prussia's grain reserves are running low.

If there is no outside aid, the grain problem alone will be enough to cause his collapse.

"Is there any news from Longyan?" Frederick II asked urgently.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Longyan is currently attacking Austria and is about to reach Vienna."

Hearing this news, Frederick II's body jolted; he had not expected Longyan's speed to be so fast that they were already about to reach Vienna.

This is good news; Vienna is the capital of Austria, and if the Longyan army reaches Vienna, it means that Austria's current situation is very tense and they will certainly have to recall the army that is currently attacking him to provide support.

"In that case, has the Austrian army retreated?"
