Chapter 410: Japan Moves

For days, Eric was too busy to eat or sleep. His son's state visit on behalf of Denmark, the long civil war in Spain, the movement for independence in India, and the obstacles to Germany's arms build-up all needed to be addressed step by step.

Eric was in a hurry, and Sylna, worried that his body would not be able to bear it, persuaded him to take off some of the burden, but it didn't take long for Eric, who was used to doing it himself, to start asking all the work again.

With a long sigh, Sylna returned to Denmark with her son Helis after finishing her visit to Germany.

Although he is busy with work, Eric has been in a very happy mood in recent days, and he did not expect that at this critical moment of rapid changes in the international situation, he can still be busy and reunite with his wife and son's family.

After seeing off the Danish king's entourage, Eric began to devote all his energy to his work. In addition to continuing to entangle Britain and the United States with Spain, his gaze began to wander so uncertainly that even Zeckert sometimes couldn't figure out where his gun was about to be aimed.

Inspired by the Indian independence movement, Eric intends to take advantage of the opportunity to add insult to the colonial powers.

At the moment, the entire African continent has been divided between the five major European powers, and in addition to Britain, France, Italy, Spain, and Belgium, Portugal is negligible, but also involved. Became a member of the Five Plus Family.

Portugal aside, of the other five countries, Britain, France, and Belgium are the most disgusted with Germany, while France is the relatively low-key of the three. Reasonably, Eric intends to disgust the arrogant and unreasonable Britain first.

In the Spanish Civil War, Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries were all busy, and the Americans had the most fun. For the United States, it is a blessing to God that there is such a place in the world to dump domestic surpluses.

The British, by contrast, began to play with emotion, moving from free intervention to affection, and saw Soviet assistance as a means of victory.

Ever since the United States intervened in Spain, Britain and the Soviet Union began to exchange winks and goodwill.

It's a pity that what they didn't expect was that the strange land of India did not give them the opportunity to celebrate.

After several bloody crackdowns, India and Pakistan inexplicably possessed several local civilian armies of thousands of men, all of which were old Mauser rifles. The British were dumbfounded and pointed the finger directly at Germany.

In the face of Britain's accusations, the German ambassador to London, Andreasch, spoke eloquently and solemnly told the Commonwealth government that Germany had not done anything to violate the "peace treaty" between the two countries, and that it was also opposed to any country making trouble behind its back and putting Germany on its back.

After the end of World War I, Germany sold the production line of these old-fashioned equipment to more than a dozen countries under the supervision of the Entente from 1919 to 1920.

The German argument was unassailable, and the British gritted their teeth with hatred, but they were helpless, because when Germany first sold equipment, the British were the witnesses there. In fact, almost all of this equipment was sold to friendly countries with which Germany had good relations, including Peru, Argentina, Venezuela and Uruguay.

These countries are regarded by the Americans as the German horses of the Americas, and in fact, the British have a clear account in their hearts.

Although these armed uprisings on the Indian continent may seem to have nothing to do with Germany on the surface, the British always felt that there were Germans behind them. However, before the British could figure it out, the United States also began to make new small moves.

Several British-occupied islands in the Caribbean were bases for the British Empire's overseas advance and bridgeheads for the British to thwart the economic and military development of the United States, but they also broke out in a series of sporadic uprisings, still using the same German Mauser rifles.

Britain did not point the finger at Germany this time, and in terms of geopolitical relations, Germany's claim has always been the eastern part of Europe, and they will not choose to go to South America to stir up peace at all. Expanding power on America's doorstep, which has neither military nor economic value, would not have been so stupid as the Germans.

The bloody clashes on these islands can be counted on the heads of the Americans by breaking their toes, and the Americans' intention to take advantage of the fire to loot is very obvious. I thought that Spain had the participation of the Soviets and that Britain could take advantage of the opportunity to take a breather, but it turned out to be in a hurry.

Britain has become fragile after the economic crisis, and with anti-imperialist waves around the world, 10 Chinatown is already feeling the end of its life.

Germany withdrew at the right time, and the German ambassador Andreas, who had always been between the top echelons of the British Commonwealth and the British royal family, suddenly offered to come forward to do the work of Eric Adrian, to put aside his old suspicions, to assist Britain in dealing with overseas affairs, and if necessary, to provide help to the best of his ability without violating the norms of the League of Nations.

Britain doesn't fully believe that Eric would have such good intentions, but thinks Andreas may not be telling a lie. As a result, Britain began to gradually dispel the fears of Germany, preparing to continue to support the Spanish left-wing parties while striking hard at the Indian resistance, and to relocate the insignificant northern Atlantic military forces to the south.

The British's guesses were largely accurate, but they didn't expect Eric to go deeper. As the British moved south, the German ambassador to Rome was quietly holding secret consultations with the Italian government, and the eastern part of Africa could usher in significant changes.

At this moment, the Spanish Civil War was raging, and the independence movement set off by India and Pakistan was also overwhelming. Correspondingly, the anti-imperialist conflict in the Caribbean is also gradually spreading, and even the African continent is not willing to be lonely, and the calm is filled with the smell of gunpowder.

The logic of the British is a bit mutated, in their opinion, isn't it just the forcible occupation of the land of other countries? Isn't it just robbing the property of other countries? So many years have passed, why do you have to fall out now? As everyone knows, the British are used to their own domineering and behavior, they don't need fairness, but they need other countries to become his slaves.

In Asia, Japan is speeding up its aggression against China, but even the most ferocious wolves will be careful when chasing their prey, not to mention that they are still facing the same hunters they once had.

As expected by the Japanese, at a high-level press conference in China, Chang Kaishen announced the formal hiring of some senior instructors of the German High Seas and the Mediterranean Fleet to help the country train and build a navy suitable for the defense of the homeland.

The Japanese had been tyrannical in Asia and other places for a long time, and they were not used to German involvement. Huaxia hired so many instructors and deployed a number of active ships, but did not announce the size of the domestic navy, which immediately made the Japanese suspicious.

The Japanese were very angry, and in their opinion, the Germans clearly wanted to come to East Asia to seize territory, so they tried every means to obstruct it. In just over 10 days, the protest letters and diplomatic theories have been escalated layer by layer, and the newspapers and magazines in Japan have been constantly criticizing Germany, which has made the German diplomatic department exhausted and miserable.

Over time, Germany began to ignore warnings and did not respond.

Japan, which had deceived itself, was bored in Germany, so it simply gave up fighting alone and contacted Britain to resist Germany's actions. As a result, the British gave an ambiguous answer, and then there was no follow-up. Next, the United States did not join Japan either, and even France only stumbled and then turned away.

Japan has always coveted the Soviet Far East, and after not receiving support from Britain, the United States, France, and other countries, it turned back and had the mentality of giving it a try, and cheekily approached the Soviet Union.

At this time, Japan's cunning actuary expected that all countries had no intention of looking eastward, and were ready to use Korea as a springboard to march into China in a big way.
