Chapter 779: William the Conqueror!


William could understand Louis XVI's concerns, but understanding did not mean that William would be able to return these territories to Louis XVI in vain.

This world is a world of the jungle, in other words, as long as the land of the British is beaten down, then it will naturally belong to whom!

Moreover, Wilhelm had mobilized so many troops at the moment, and Prussia could not afford to fight a loss-making war.

Late January 1795 When the news of the Prussian Army's official capture of all the colonies of the former British Governorate of Pittsburgh reached London, King George III ordered a declaration of war on Prussia.

Just after Britain declared war on Prussia, the monarchs of the countries who had already assembled in Brussels, as well as the states of the German Empire, signed an alliance agreement and declared war on Britain.

Before the Allied Army was dispatched, the British Navy immediately moved after George III declared war on Prussia, and the British Navy's First Fleet left the port of Great Yarmouth for Bremen, according to the plan of the Home Fleet, in the case of the departure of the main force of the Prussian Combined Fleet, the First Fleet would fight against the fleet other than the main force of the Combined Fleet, and then turn west and join the Second and Third Fleets to attack the main force of the Combined Fleet.

But when Ambert arrived at Bremen with the First and Fifth Fleets, the Combined Fleet, which had already been ambushed, suddenly appeared and surrounded the British fleet.

"Damn, what's going on, didn't it mean that the main forces of the Combined Fleet have already passed through the Kirkwall Strait!"

When the Union fleet's countless masts and sails appeared around the home fleet, Ambert suddenly realized that he had been fooled.

It was the main forces of the Combined Fleet that were assembled in the waters of Bremen.

But by the time Ambert and the Royal Navy realized this, it was already too late.

Just as the British Navy was urgently deploying battle formation.

The main forces of the Combined Fleet, which had completed the formation, launched an attack on the main forces of the British Royal Navy.

Although the British Royal Navy was strong and tried its best to break through under the command of Ambert, it still suffered heavy losses under the siege of the Combined Fleet, which had already been ambushed.

On January 26, 1795, the Battle of Bremen came to an end.

The Royal Navy's home fleet lost twenty-one warships.

There were only a dozen ships that escaped back to Great Yarmouth, and almost all of them were wounded, and it would take some time to repair them before they could be restored.

Although the Combined Fleet was also heavily damaged in the Battle of Bremen, the damage was lighter than that of the Home Fleet, and the main force of the Combined Fleet remained.

The Combined Fleet, which had defeated the Home Fleet, would immediately move west, and they would dock in Dutch ports before heading to attack the Second and Third Fleets of the Home Fleet, which had already been deployed to the Celtic Sea.

January 30, 1795.

The German Empire, the Dutch, and the French invaded the British-occupied northern part of France, and the province of Calais fell after only two days of being attacked by the German Empire.

After the capture of Calais, the Allies did not stop.

Under William's orders, the emperor ** and the French ** team competed and set off a huge offensive.

On 13 February 1795, all British territories on the European continent fell.

February 24, 1795, by order of the British government.

The British navy was fully retrenched in the English Channel to counter a possible Allied assault.

February 26, 1795.

The Combined Fleet and the British Navy fought a major battle in the English Channel, and just as the two sides were fighting to the last moments, competing for their own perseverance, the addition of a new force completely turned the tide of the war.

This new force is none other than the Dutch Navy.

On 27 February 1795, the Royal Navy's home fleet was almost annihilated, and the timely addition of the Dutch Navy allowed the Prussian Combined Fleet to win.

Immediately after the victory of the Combined Fleet over the British Royal Navy, William gave the order for the Allies to continue the war against the British.

At the same time, preparations were made for landing in the British Isles.

On March 10, 1795, under the escort of the Combined Fleet, which had already taken control of the English Channel.

A large number of transport ships sailed out of the ports of Calais and other coastal cities, carrying Allied soldiers to complete the landing operation on the British Isles in Hastings.

Prior to this, the London government had actually sent an envoy to see William, and London wanted a truce with the Allies, but William refused the request of the British.

Joking, in William's opinion, the current situation can be said to be unseen in a century, if William gave up the current opportunity, after the British naval strength recovered, I am afraid that it will be almost impossible to find this opportunity.

After receiving William's refusal, London had no choice but to make a public statement in Parliament.

"The Kingdom of Great Britain has reached its most dangerous moment, and our enemies have gathered more than 300,000 troops and are plotting to bring the flames of war to the British Isles!

All the people of Great Britain, here, your King, I, George III, ask you to stand with the government and fight together against those invaders!

I believe that victory will ultimately belong to the righteous side, and we, the holy and glorious Kingdom of Great Britain, the kingdom favored by God, will triumph over the evil enemy and win the war!

” Under George III's speeches, the London government began to recruit more soldiers in England and Scotland.

Hastings has left a great name in British history, and it was a war that made it famous all over the world.

In 1066 AD, William the Conqueror led a large army to the land of Hastings, and King Harold, the ruler of England at the time, immediately led an army to meet him.

A great battle broke out at Hastings, which ended in the victory of William the Conqueror and the tragic death of Harold.

In addition to the proximity of Hastings to London, William's heart was not to hope that this land would bless the new conqueror as it did in 1066.

To know from 1066 after William the Conqueror.

No other armies were able to conquer the British Isles and take over London.

On March 11, 1795, the vanguard of the Allies landed on the beach of Hastings, but they were faced by the British ** who had already completed their defense on the beach.

The British placed more than 30,000 troops on the beaches of Hastings.

And carried a large number of artillery.

Previously, in order to prevent exposure, all British troops allowed these Allied pioneers to land on the beach, but after entering the firing range, the British troops opened fire mercilessly under the orders of the British commander.

The Allies suffered heavy casualties, and all the vanguards had to lie down on the beach at the orders of the officers and wait for reinforcements from the rear.

Seeing this, William, who was standing on the flagship of the Combined Fleet "Brandenburg", looked very ugly.

Noticing William's face.

Mehad immediately ordered: "All warships, shoot at the beach!"

On Mehard's orders, the warships of the Combined Fleet began to approach the beach.

Upon arrival, dozens of Combined Fleet warships began to bombard the forest behind Hastings Beach without stopping.

It wasn't clear where the target was, but for Mehard, all it was to flatten the forests behind the beach.

Then the British defenders, naturally, had nowhere to hide.

The artillery fire of forty battleships gathered together was terrifying.

Nearly half an hour into the time.

I saw that the forest behind the beach had been destroyed.

"Order the transport ships to speed up and send the soldiers to the beach in the shortest possible time!"

The army commander of this landing operation was Dessau, who was standing next to William, and Dessau, who was standing next to William, hurriedly ordered when he saw the British defense line that had been bombed into slag after the destruction of the forest.

In this landing in Hastings, the Allies prepared an army of 160,000 men, of which 20,000 were French troops commanded by Napoleon.

The first Allied forces to land in Hastings, in addition to the Prussian 5th and 19th Divisions, were 20,000 French troops led by Napoleon.

"Quick.

Quick, fast.

Hurry up for me, damn it, do you want to be made into a roast chicken by the British!

” Although the Combined Fleet did not stop firing at all, the British artillery did not stop attacking the Allied forces on the beach.

"Your Majesty, the battleship has reached its limit, and it will run aground any further!"

Mehad said apologetically to William, but after Mehard finished speaking, William waved his hand and said: "This landing operation is under the command of you and Dessau, I will not interfere, I only have one point, that is, no matter what the cost, I must land on it and occupy the beach for me!"

After William finished speaking, he continued to look at the situation on the beach with the telescope in his hand.

Under heavy artillery fire, the once picturesque beach has become an Shura field, where countless Allied soldiers are bleeding.

"General, the brethren are running out of action!"

"Fart, the Prussians are holding on, why can't we French hold on, tell the brothers, the British don't have many troops, our reinforcements are coming, and we will definitely win in the end!"

A French officer hurriedly approached Napoleon and said, but Napoleon paid no attention to it.

Seeing Napoleon's behavior, the French officer had no choice but to crawl back to the position where his troops were located.

Originally, as the commander of the French army, Napoleon did not have to go to the beach, but for Napoleon, this landing in England may be the most important part of his military career, how could he give up.

Upon learning of the Allied landings in Hastings, the British War Office immediately sent another 20,000 reserves to reinforce it, while at the same time mobilizing 10,000 troops from other areas to prepare for transfer to Hastings.

However, by this time, under the cover of the artillery fire of the Combined Fleet, the Allies had already landed 50,000 troops on the beach.

On March 13, 1795, after two days and nights of fierce fighting, the Allies finally took the coast of Hastings at the cost of nearly 30,000 casualties.

Although the cost of heavy casualties was huge, it was not unworth it for William, as it was often difficult to defend and attack in war, and the Allies had now occupied dozens of miles of territory near the beach.

This meant that the Allies could land in a steady stream.

The next battle is to compete with each other's field strength.

On 21 March 1795, the Allies captured Battle and marched on Royale Thanbridgewells, an important town south of London.

Guarding the city was British Crown Prince Augustus.

And the British army under his command was 50,000 men.

Needless to say, the importance of the city to Britain was needless to say, and it can be said that if the Allies captured Royale Tannbridgewells, then it would mean that the door to London would be wide open for the Allies to take away.

Therefore, except for the 30,000-strong army left in London, the British concentrated all the troops that could be called upon in the city.

On 26 March, the offensive and defensive battle of Royale Tannbridgevilles officially began.

The British side had 50,000 men, while the Allied side had as many as 120,000.

In addition, the Allies had 40,000 troops coming across the Channel in a steady stream towards England.

April 20.

The situation in Royaltambridge Wells has deteriorated dramatically, and many places in the city have been breached, but after Augustus showed that he did not hesitate to live and die with Royaltambridgevilles.

Under the desperate counterattack of the British army, the Allies were finally driven out of the city.

"It can't go on like this, our army has suffered too many casualties, from the landing to the present.

Fifty thousand people have already been killed or wounded.

More than 20,000 of them were killed, and nearly 10,000 completely lost the ability to continue fighting!

” In the Allied command, William III, the Dutch ruler, spoke to the Allied leadership.

"My 3,000 troops have been exhausted, and I believe that Austria, Berg, Cologne, and Bam are all about the same, and in fact the French side has also paid the price of more than 7,000 casualties, is it another strategy?"

"No, no matter how many casualties are paid, Royal Tambridge Wells must be taken.

The city has become a symbol of the whole of England, and only the capture of the city has taken place. to be able to deter all the British!

” "How do you know how much casualties we will have to pay if the rest of the cities are like Royale Tambridgevilles?"

There was a sudden quarrel in the command, but at this moment, Dessau, who had been appointed by William as the commander of the Allied Army, immediately spoke violently: "His Majesty the Emperor has come to the death order, before the first day of May, we must take Royale Tannbridgeville, so we are not allowed to hesitate in time, so we can only continue to attack, and then I will send a team of overseers, and anyone who dares to retreat without permission in the absence of an order from the command will be dealt with by military law!"

After Dessau finished speaking, the atmosphere in the headquarters suddenly changed.

On 26 April, the Allies finally took Royale Tannbridgeville after inflicting heavy casualties, and Crown Prince Augustus was killed as he had previously claimed.

On 30 April, the Allies arrived in London.

Because of the escape, the streets of the once most prosperous city in Europe have become as calm as death, and King George III stands on the top of Buckingham Palace and looks at the water of the Thames, and his heart is already a little hopeless.

After the Allied capture of Royale Tannbridgewells, the Combined Fleet openly entered the Thames, and despite the best efforts of the British Royal Navy, the recalcitrant British ships were annihilated.

"Your Majesty, let's surrender, as long as we can retain the bloodline of the Hanover Dynasty, we will rise one day in the future!"

Pete Jr. said, standing beside George III Hearing little Pete's words, George III smiled and said: "Little Pete, I am very grateful to you, you are the most outstanding Prime Minister in the history of the United Kingdom, and it is your efforts that have built the Kingdom of Great Britain to a new level, so I want to thank you!"

Before little Pete could speak, George III said: "But as a monarch, I always have to do something for my country, I have never looked down on Augustus before, although he is the crown prince, but he is not a qualified heir to the king in my mind, but the battle of Royaltambridge Wells made me realize that my son is still very good, but I have not found out before!

Little Pete, I will let Prince Andrew go with you to surrender to the Allies, this war cannot be fought any longer, if it continues to be fought, not only the Hanoverian dynasty, but the whole of England will be destroyed!

” "Your Majesty, what about you!"

"As the monarch of the Hanoverian dynasty, the country has reached such a point, what face do I have to live, you go!"

Little Pete's eyes were already red, and he knew that George III had already sprung up in his heart to die.

After George III had his attendants leave with little Pete, he once again dressed himself in full ceremonial attire, this time without the help of his attendants.

Looking at the King in the mirror, George III smiled.

On the night of May 2, 1795, George III and Buckingham Palace set fire to it.

Although the fire was extinguished after more than an hour, George III was already buried in the fire.

On 3 May, Pitt Jr. and a cabinet of government officials surrounded Prince Andrew to the Allied camp outside the city to formally surrender to the Allied forces.

After the war, Britain ceded all its colonies, and the major British cities unconditionally accepted the presence of Prussian troops, and at the same time Britain handed over all the warships, and as war reparations, Britain needed to pay the Allies up to one billion pounds in war reparations within ten years.

In fact, in this way, Britain became a colony of Prussia.

In 1798, Prussia declared war on France, and in 1799 France surrendered.

In 1801, Prussia declared war on Austria, marking the beginning of the unification of the German Empire.

In 1803 the German Empire was unified, and in 1804 the German Empire invaded the Apennine Peninsula on the grounds that northern Italy had been the territory of the Germanic peoples since ancient times.

In 1806, all of Central and Western Europe, with the exception of the Iberian Peninsula, became part of the German Empire.

In 1810, Prussia's overseas colonization reached its peak, taking over all the colonies of Britain, France, and the Netherlands.

In 1813, Prussia opened the war against the Russian Empire under the pretext of helping Alexander restore his country.

In 1815, the Brankoff government in Russia collapsed.

In 1817, with no rivals in Europe, Prussia sent 60,000 troops on an expedition to Southeast Asia.

In 1820, Prussia conquered Japan.

In 1827, at the age of fifty, Wilhelm stood in front of a giant world map and looked at the red color representing Prussia painted all over the corners of the map, and Wilhelm's face was smiling.

Finally, William became a conqueror comparable to that Genghis Khan.................
