Chapter 797: Chapter 60: The French Counterattack Plan

The news of the French Army's defeat in Egypt quickly caused an uproar on the European continent. Many people's first reaction upon reading the newspaper was — is it April Fool's Day?

In the original timeline, Italy's defeat in Africa was mocked by the European world for over a century; now, the French have received the same treatment.

Due to their high level of animosity, the fire directed at the French was even more intense than that aimed at Italy in the original timeline.

As the official media of the Austrian Government, the Vienna Daily published the news of the French army's defeat with an extremely exaggerated headline — The Decline of the Empire Français.

This was part of a series of reports that could be traced back to the Roman Empire, including all the countries of major influence in European history.

To enhance credibility, the Habsburg dynasty was also listed, with a pompous title — The First Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets.
