If they want to plunder Prussian civilians, they don't need the consent of the Longyan Army.

Ling Chen looked away from her.

Foolish kindness...

"Austria's transportation lines do need to be cut off, but I think there are better goals."

Ling Chen's finger landed on the map, and everyone was stunned.

"General, I don't understand. From a strategic perspective, Austria's transportation lines have a higher priority."

"As for Hamburg, there are Swedish troops stationed there, but we are not attacking the city but only grabbing food. We can only use 30,000 troops now, and heavy weapons such as siege guns cannot be used."

"It will be very detrimental to us if we attack the city."

Ling Chen glanced at everyone: "You think so too?"

Others nodded, but Ling Chen shook his head and sighed: "Our current problem is to solve the food and grass problem."

"As for Austria's transportation lines, we don't know when they will transport food. If we attack, we can only wait."

"And it's winter now. Since the Austrian army has not broken out into a large-scale conflict with Prussia, what will their remaining troops do?"

"It definitely doesn't know how to transport the line."

"The reason why we chose Hamburg is because although the Swedish army controls the city, it does not have many troops."

"The geographical location there is very important. Hamburg is close to the North Sea, and there are ports on the land that can lead to the Baltic Sea and French territory."

Ling Chen pointed to the map of Europe. Other Franco-Austrian allies, almost most of them, needed to transport supplies through Hamburg.

"I have conducted reconnaissance and found that the city's defense force is too weak. Although we can only mobilize 30,000 troops, it is indeed difficult to capture Hamburg, but we need the food."

"It is absolutely possible to intercept and deal with the grain and grass shipped from Hamburg to various places."

Ling Chen looked at everyone with emotionless eyes and said calmly: "Hamburg is the link between the Franco-Austrian allies. It will be their own residents who will suffer after we cut it off."

Everyone was stunned, and then they looked at the map carefully and found that it was indeed the same as what Ling Chen said.

After the fall of Hamburg, it was connected through its various Franco-Austrian allies.

It's winter, the time of unwritten truce.

Now that food is scarce and economic development is stagnant, there is an urgent need for merchants to move between countries.

Hamburg's geographical location is very important, perhaps because the Franco-Austrian Allied Forces believed that Hamburg must have been surrounded by groups and it was impossible to attack.

Even if they entered Hanover and connected Hamburg at dawn, the Franco-Austrian Allied Forces did not add any soldiers to Hamburg.

Just because the Long Yan Army now looks like it has broken through the encirclement and united with Prussia.

But in fact, from the perspective of the Franco-Austrian Allied Forces, Ling Chen had entered their ambush circle.

But this ambush circle is very huge.

But it was as if the Longyan Army was under his nose, and every move they made was seen by the French and Austrian Allied Forces, and he didn't take it to heart at all.

That's why we didn't set up so many troops in Hamburg, we just sent a Swedish army.

At this time someone asked: "General, but we are not familiar with the terrain of Hamburg."

"It doesn't matter, Miss Diana and we have carefully explored the terrain over there."

Ling Chen paused for a moment, then said softly: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that this plan was proposed by Diana."

Everyone was once again attracted to this European woman, but this time their eyes changed a lot when they looked at her.

"I agree to attack Hamburg, but we cannot attack the city, we can only intercept it."
