Chapter 1425: The Omen of a Decisive Battle
Weikeduo could not figure out why the Dragon Flame Army would do such a thing.
But the current moment did not allow him to overthink, because another military report made him focus his full attention, and he had to take it seriously.
Weikeduo picked up the second military report; a line of text was written on it.
Top secret, urgent report!
These four words alone indicated that this military report was not simple, especially since this report came from the army attacking Prussia.
Weikeduo straightened his expression, tapped his fingers on the edge of the round table, and said indifferently, "The Upper House should be quiet for a while, everyone."
The bickering Councilors, who could not convince one another, immediately fell silent upon hearing this sentence from Weikeduo.
They sat back in their seats, put on the demeanor that Councilors should have, and looked at Weikeduo.
Ever since the last time Weikeduo killed a Councilor without warning and controlled the Upper House with thunderous means.
These Senators were as docile as sheep in front of Weikeduo.
The power in their hands was great, but under the threat of life and death, they undoubtedly chose life.
After all, no matter how great the power in one's hands is, one must be alive to enjoy it.
Weikeduo did not look at these Councilors; he tore open the envelope and looked at the contents inside.
Weikeduo's brows twitched, revealing a bad premonition.
He continued reading down, his brows furrowing tighter and tighter.
After finishing the last sentence, Weikeduo's expression was extremely ugly; he slammed the letter down and sneered!
"These guys have really rebelled!"
"The foolish Prussians actually still think about counterattacking now?"
Weikeduo revealed a chilling smile; in his view, this move by Prussia was simply courting death.
The Prussian army was very powerful, otherwise it could not have persisted for so long, lasting until now, while facing a siege by almost all of Europe.
Although Prussia had not yet fallen, it was about the same now.
Originally, Weikeduo wanted to grind Prussia to death.
But he did not expect that Prussia would actually summon the courage to resist in the face of his attack.
This country on the verge of extinction actually did such a thing; this was something Weikeduo could not have imagined.
And this was an attack launched in Poland.
Thinking about it, Weikeduo felt it was ridiculous; he believed that the current Prussia was just a powerful ant.
This powerful ant now dared to resist him, the Austrian giant; it was completely seeking its own destruction.
I originally wanted to grind you, Prussia, to death bit by bit; since you are now concentrating your forces and insisting on a decisive battle with my Austria in Poland, then I will grant your wish.
Frederick II!
The Senators saw the sneer on Weikeduo's face and were as silent as cicadas in winter.
They did not know what the contents of this military report were, but content that could make Weikeduo show such a smile was definitely not a good thing.
"I now propose to launch a decisive battle with Prussia in Poland; do you agree or disagree?" Weikeduo said indifferently.
Upon hearing this proposal, the Senators were all slightly stunned.
Isn't Prussia about to fall?
Could it be that Weikeduo wants to decide the outcome in Poland and completely crush Prussia?
Facing this decision, the Senators fell into silence; there were still Dragon Flame Army troops jumping around in the country now.
This would undoubtedly stimulate the Dragon Flame Army.
The Dragon Flame Army currently had an army of nearly a million on their own territory, right at their port city.
If this proposal were known, then the actions of their own army in Poland would certainly be known by Dragon Flame.
If the Dragon Flame Army were to launch a riot at that time, it would be dangerous.
"General Weikeduo, is it too rushed to have a decisive battle now?"
Everyone looked at the Councilor who raised the question.
It was Liangduo again.
As soon as they saw it was that young Councilor again, all the Senators remained silent once more; this Councilor had just voiced the thoughts in their hearts.
But what they valued most was what would happen after they announced this news.
If a major war were really launched against Prussia, then the deployment of troops within the country would have to be strengthened.
To prevent attacks from the Dragon Flame Army.
At that time, the Nobles sitting here would have to offer up their wealth and servants to defend the country!
This was something they could not accept at all, as it would cause their assets to shrink significantly.
Liangduo looked at Weikeduo at the head of the table and said in a deep voice, "You once said that Dragon Flame's most important ally in Europe is Prussia."
"It is a nail of Dragon Flame in Europe; with it, Dragon Flame can enter and exit Europe openly and honestly."
"We still have nearly a million Dragon Flame troops in our country right at the ports; if we launch a decisive battle with Prussia now, in the event that the Dragon Flame Army launches a crazy retaliatory act, it will likely be difficult to stop them given the current troop situation in the country."
"I am afraid that at that time..."
Having said this, Liangduo did not continue; those two words were too heavy.
"National extinction, right?" Weikeduo said the two words for him and glanced at Liangduo.
Weikeduo threw the top-secret military report in his hand onto the table and sneered.
"Take a look; this is the latest news sent from the front line."
Liangduo looked at the contents on the top-secret military report; his expression stiffened instantly, and his brows squeezed into a 'chuan' shape.
He sat down and said nothing more about the previous matter.
The Councilors looked at Liangduo; a military report from the front line shouldn't be enough to scare him like this, right?
They thought to themselves, then took the military report and looked at its contents, all of their expressions changing slightly.
A silence suddenly permeated the entire Upper House.
After reading the military report, the Senators all fell into silence, and at this moment, someone cursed.
"Madmen!"
"Both Frederick II and Longyan are madmen!"
"Grand Duke Theresa was right, Liu Zheng and Frederick II are just two troublemakers!"
A chorus of insults erupted.
Weikeduo exhaled a breath of stale air, his eyes complex; he had never expected that Frederick II, who was on the verge of desperation, would launch such a crazy operation.
It could not even be described as crazy; such a military operation was simply throwing an egg against a rock.
It was simply courting self-destruction!
"The initiative for this decisive battle does not lie with us, but in the hands of Frederick II and Longyan."
"Now that Prussia is confronting us in Poland and launching a counterattack, if we do not repel them..."
"Then the Ottoman and Prussia will form a pincer attack from front and back; if they break through the interception line of Tsarist Russia, then Prussia can be reborn and regain its strength."
"The situation at that time will be even more difficult and chaotic than it is now."
"So now is our last chance to destroy Prussia, what do you say?" Weikeduo looked at the Senators and said as much.
Although the Senators were unwilling, matters had reached this point, and it was no longer up to them.
"We agree..."
"To launch a decisive battle with Prussia in Poland!"
