Chapter 2000: A Sudden Cooperation

Not long after Prince Soubise led the French Army in retreat, Ling Chen heard the sounds of battle coming from not far away.

Ling Chen and his troops were not surprised by these sounds.

Long before this, they had received word of the Britain troops' intention to cooperate.

Clearly, the sounds of battle just now were the Britain troops launching an offensive against the French Army.

Not long after, Ling Chen saw the Britain troops riding toward them.

The troops following behind the commander wore expressions of having won a battle; it was evident they had achieved a major victory in the recent engagement.

The Britain commander, Qiaoen, dismounted and looked toward Ling Chen.

"General Ling Chen, the French Army has been annihilated by our troops, and their remnants are currently being hunted down by our forces."

"However, according to the latest intelligence we have received, the commanding Prince Soubise has split his forces into three routes to attack Hanover, and I am worried about the French Army on the other routes..."

Ling Chen waved his hand to interrupt him, ordering the Longyan Army to assemble.

Qiaoen looked in astonishment at a small Square Formation, roughly counting the force to be less than three thousand men.

It was this few people who had just held off a thirty-thousand-man French Army and beaten the opposing force to a pulp!

Qiaoen rubbed his eyes, looked again, and was now absolutely certain that the Longyan Army had only dispatched about three thousand soldiers this time!

Ling Chen ignored the surprise in Qiaoen's eyes and said indifferently: "Those French Soldier you speak of are gone now; there is no need to worry about them."

Upon hearing this, Qiaoen was stunned; before he could react to what had happened, he saw Ling Chen and his troops leaving the area.

Qiaoen watched the departing figure of Ling Chen's troops, and the words he had just spoken lingered in their hearts like a shadow that would not dissipate for a long time.

He summoned the reconnaissance unit from his own troops and said to them in a deep voice: "Go and investigate the movements of the French Army we scouted, and see if their troops have been wiped out."

"If not, I need to grasp the detailed movements of their troops!"

"Yes..."

Qiaoen dispatched his reconnaissance unit, while he led his own troops to follow in the footsteps of the Longyan Army...

At this time, the Egypt troops.

Smith's French Army was building a large number of war machines in the Wahala Tribe area; because there was no defensive terrain to hold, they were preparing for a head-on collision with the Resistance Army.

Nashadier's troops on this side were also actively making preparations.

This offensive would be a hundred times more difficult than any of their previous operations!

The terrain of the Wahala Tribe was too flat, with no defensive terrain to hold, and no Method to reduce the pressure of combat.

On the vast Grassland, there was only this one Method: a head-on clash.

Nashadier transmitted his operational plan to Jiang Xuan, hoping he could coordinate with him in the operation.

After Jiang Xuan received the information, he did not place his strategic objective on the Wahala Tribe; he was preparing to engage the French Army in an all-out war.

The French Colonial Zone consisted of two Colonial Area on the Ethiopian Plateau, which, in Jiang Xuan's view, were the best places to attack.

Once the Wahala Tribe and his own area were taken, there would truly be no need for the French Army to maintain their current occupied territories.

Rather than breaking through district by district, it would be better to punch through the entire area occupied by the French Army and completely stabilize the current situation.

After thinking this through, Jiang Xuan immediately replied to Nashadier, stating in the letter that he intended to launch an all-out war against the French Army.

He would completely crush the French Army's battle line, which was already on the verge of collapse.

At this time, the commander of the other French Colonial Zone, Dawn, was still racking his brains to maintain the battle line in the Egypt region.

Hearing that the Resistance Army was about to launch an offensive against the Wahala Tribe area made Dawn's scalp tingle.

That was their most important strategic buffer zone, possessing a vast and boundless Grassland.

Although this area had previously been of little value.

But now, this harsh Grassland of the Wahala Tribe was the best tool for dragging out the pace of the Nashadier tribe's advance.

If this place were lost, their most important industrial zone would be attacked by the opposing troops.

If this place were lost, their colony in North Africa would be completely forfeited.

But even with the war situation this tense, the French mainland still showed no intention of providing any aid.

One must know that this was the most important region for France in Africa, bar none.

But the current lack of manpower gave Dawn a massive headache.

Misfortunes never come singly.

Just at this time, Dawn received information on the movements of the Longyan Army; according to the conclusions drawn from the current information, the Longyan Army might have a major move recently.

There was a large-scale war to be fought on both battlefields.

This left Dawn with no time to spare.

He summoned all the high-ranking officers of the French Army to discuss a countermeasure.

"The situation is as it is; the specifics will depend on the response plans you all have next."

Dawn brought his hand down heavily on the table, stared at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "This matter concerns the very existence of the entire French Colonial Zone."

"Whether the Wahala region or the Nile River Region falls, our industrial zone will certainly be attacked."

"Everyone present can think about what our eventual fate will be."

The people present felt a chill; whether it was the Longyan Army or the Resistance Army, neither would let them off.

These high-ranking officers did not even have the chance to surrender before the Resistance Army, and as for surrendering to Jiang Xuan, that was even worse than surrendering to the Resistance Army.

Surrendering to the Resistance Army was merely death, but surrendering to Jiang Xuan was not just a matter of death.

The conflict between France and Longyan was becoming increasingly intense, and these high-ranking officers knew what their troops had done in Australia.

They also knew what was happening on the French mainland now; if they were captured by Jiang Xuan, they might face the same treatment.

Moreover, according to the military discipline of the French mainland, captured officers were basically sentenced to death; even if you were still alive, you were as good as dead, and their troops would not come to save them.

It is even possible that they will send people to kill them.

At the thought of such an ending, they felt a wave of lingering fear.

Looking at the map of the entire North Africa region, they saw that the Longyan Army was currently advancing toward them from the Nile River Region, and they all knew in their hearts that if Jiang Xuan really made a major move, their troops would certainly suffer defeat.

The problem now is how to hold back the marching units of the Longyan Army before the Nile River Basin falls.

After thinking for a long time, a high-ranking general finally exhaled a breath of turbid air and said heavily: "Perhaps we can rely on these mountains to block the Longyan Army's troops for a while, and during that time, we can first eliminate Nashadier's troops."

"Securing our side's safety first and then relying on these mountains to engage in a tug-of-war with the Longyan Army is the most secure Method for now; the Longyan Army may not necessarily be familiar with the paths in these mountains."
