March 11, 1826, France, Paris, Palace of Versailles.
A man who was not as tall as a traditional Westerner stood in front of the window, his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
That person is the owner of this palace and the entire French Empire—Andrési Joseph Bonaparte, Napoleon II, the nephew of the great Napoleon the Great.
A week ago, the French Empire officially declared war on the British Empire, and the French Navy began to fight the British Navy within the time frame. At this time, the British navy was undoubtedly the most powerful in the world, and it was beyond the imagination of other countries in the world at that time to start a war with the powerful British navy, except of course, France.
At the same time, because Austria, Russia, and Russia have been severely weakened, the pressure on the east of France has been greatly reduced, and it can concentrate on dealing with the pressure from the west.
Andresi is also very nervous now, the nails of both hands are almost pinched into the flesh due to the forceful grip. He is not sure of winning this war against Britain. After all, Britain's powerful navy lies there. For hundreds of years, it has beaten the navies of European countries into a very embarrassing situation. However, after ten years of development, the strength of the French navy has also risen rapidly. Although the number of warships cannot be compared with the old naval power of the United Kingdom, the quality of the warships has greatly surpassed that of the United Kingdom. The gap is not too big.
For Britain, as long as the navy wins, the war is basically over. Although the French army is very powerful, without the **** of a powerful navy, it is absolutely impossible for them to cross the English Channel. As far as France is concerned, if the navy can win, then the powerful French army can easily land on the British Isles, and the weak British army is obviously not an opponent of the French army armed to the teeth. De Lacey believes that Britain can be completely torn into pieces. Therefore, for the victory of the naval battle, both sides devoted almost all their naval power without reservation.
Suddenly, a staff officer ran in and interrupted Andresi's thinking. The officer saluted him and said: "Your Majesty, news has just come from the front that our navy has won an unprecedented victory in ambushing the British Navy in the Bay of Biscay. Almost half of the British Navy's warships were sunk or captured by our army, and our army lost a lot of money." It is very small, and now the strength of our navy has greatly surpassed that of the British navy. Admiral Bulter is preparing to launch an attack on the British home fleet in order to completely destroy the British navy."
After hearing the news, Andrési's original nervousness was immediately swept away, and he ordered: "Immediately send an order to Marshal Davout, let him be on standby at any time, and immediately lead the expeditionary force to board the ship after the navy's victory. Like the British march." The officer led the way out. At this moment, Andresi seemed to see the scene where his army occupied Buckingham Palace and captured all the British royal family.
