The Nazi cavalry was in full swing, and the Polish medieval sabers were clearly unable to stop them, and the Nazi cavalry rushed forward to add insult to injury, and two weeks later, on September 17, the Soviets also invaded Poland. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Poland withstood the attack of the Soviet and German powers, although it was very valiant, but the result was inferior to the Spaniards, it was simply difficult to resist, and in the first week, they lost their industrial center of Lodz, and the German armored corps broke through to the city of Warsaw.

The next week, on September 17, the Germans wiped out the rest of Poland's army, completed the siege of Warsaw, and presented an ultimatum to the Polish government, asking them to surrender within 12 hours, but the Polish government had fled Poland the day before, at this time the Soviet Russia wanted to take advantage of the fire and loot, sent troops to invade Poland, and the next day on September 18, the Soviet and German troops met in the Brest area in Poland.

In fact, Poland lost its ability to resist after the first week, and after the second week it was completely defeated, and the reason why it held out for a few more days was only because the Germans were advancing too fast, and the supplies could not keep up, and they waited another week, until the 25th, to launch an attack on the outer perimeter of Warsaw.

On the 26th, the Germans began to bomb Warsaw, the city of Warsaw was in rubble, the Poles gave in, announced their surrender on the 28th, and it took a total of 28 days before and after, of which on the 16th, the Polish government fled the motherland, and on the 17th day surrounded the Polish capital, until the 25th, the attack on Warsaw began, and on the 28th of the third day, Poland chose to surrender.

The destruction of Poland in a month made Poland have high hopes for Poland, especially for Warsaw, expecting Poland to create a miracle to repel the Soviet army after the last Soviet army attacked Poland City, and it can also inflict heavy losses on the German army, and the single miracle did not happen, and Poland surrendered.

The combat effectiveness shown by the German army directly frightened Britain and France, and France immediately mobilized again, and began to purchase weapons and equipment, ordered planes from the United States, and purchased heavy weapons from China, but China said in a high-profile manner that it respected the neutrality law, and the ban implemented during the Spanish Civil War was still in effect, and Chinese companies were not allowed to supply weapons to Western countries.

The Americans accepted the French order for aircraft, but the people in the United States were very panicked, for fear that this move would drag the United States into the war again, they didn't want more than a million American boys to die in Europe, Roosevelt in order to maintain his prestige, he could only declare the principle of cash and carry, any country must pay cash to buy weapons from the United States, and at the same time have to transport them themselves, American merchant ships will never enter the war zone, in case the American fleet and personnel were sunk by German submarines, as in the First World War, In the end, the United States entered the war.

Even on the cash-and-carry principle, Roosevelt's approval ratings plummeted, and a large number of neutral social elites were called for to stand up and give speeches and express anti-war sentiments.

However, Britain and France still have an expectation, that is, they look forward to seeing Germany annex Poland, bordering Soviet Russia, and then continuing to move eastward and fighting with Soviet Russia.

Whenever later generations saw such an analysis by historians, Yang Chao couldn't help but sigh how stupid Britain and France had to be, regardless of whether it was possible to pin their own destiny on another country that they looked down on, and at the same time, from the very beginning, they lost the confidence to rely on themselves to achieve victory, and from this mentality, they had failed.

So they began to sit in silence and never fired a single shot.

The Nazis also temporarily stopped the offensive, but cleaned up the remnants of the enemy in Poland, sent officials to receive Polish government agencies, inventory Polish assets, and collect strategic materials, and when they launched the French campaign, it had to be the middle of the second year, and for half a year, the British and French armies never moved forward.

But they were not so polite to the Spanish, although they suffered heavy losses, but under the spur of the continuous victories of the Germans, the British and French troops attacked the fortified strongholds controlled by Franco regardless of casualties, and the cities of Zaragoza, Bilbao, Gijón, and Seville were successively captured by them.

In the second month of the Polish surrender, the Anglo-French army met in Spain, and the Spanish Civil War finally ended with the victory of the Spanish government, and then they began the liquidation of the supporters of Franco's regime, and a large number of church personnel, landlords and capitalists, were tried by the "people" and shot by the "people".

At the same time, a large number of assets were confiscated by them, and Zhang Zuolin's money laundering business suddenly skyrocketed.

But he didn't have much dollars left, and after doing the last business, he let his subordinates withdraw to the country.

It's not that he doesn't want to do it, but the Americans have found out that it's too risky to do it again.

Of course, such a good business cannot be spared, but we have to wait, when the Germans also start printing counterfeit money, when the Nazis loot all the art in Europe, when the time comes to go to Switzerland to do business with the Nazis, and in the end, this bad debt will all be recorded on the Nazis' heads.

Yang Chao's natural gas giants that occupy the slipway of the US shipbuilding industry are now paid for with this money, and the dollar has depreciated sharply by 59% of the US dollar, and obviously their price level cannot be doubled, so the price of US shipbuilding is low, a ship is only 25 million US dollars, equivalent to 10 million taels, only half of the price of Chinese shipbuilding, and Yang Chao's 100 giant ships, as long as 2.5 billion US dollars, are all money laundered.

However, the reason why Yang Chao ordered such a large scale of ships from the United States was not to use black money to trap their supplies, but to occupy their slipways, during the First World War, the battleships ordered by Yang Chao occupied the American slipway, and finally the Americans sold these ships to the British at double the price, giving China a large amount of liquidated damages, this time Yang Chao must not let the United States succeed, these natural gas ships The British will definitely not want it.

At the same time, there are 100 natural gas ships under construction on China's slipway, a total of 200 giant ships, which are equivalent to the size of oil tankers, of course, because the efficiency of natural gas transportation is too low, the same tonnage, the calorific value of transportation is less than half of the oil, but the price is not one-third of the price of oil, it is barely cost-effective, the most important thing is that Mexico can get a huge amount of foreign exchange, and their national government is now enthusiastic about building its own industrial system, and a large amount of foreign exchange has basically become China's equipment.

It's just that the cause of the Mexicans, apparently no one cares for the time being, only the Americans pay a little attention, and the whole world is concerned about the war that broke out in Europe.

Yang Chao, who has rarely appeared in everyone's sight, was also asked, and Yang Chao expressed his attitude towards Europe, which made Britain and France feel very comforted.

Yang Chao said: "China should intervene in the war, every responsible major country cannot sit idly by and watch the normal world order collapse, and maintaining a good world order is not only the responsibility of one country, not the responsibility of the British Empire, the responsibility of the French Republic, the responsibility of the United States of America, and the responsibility of China." ”

Although the Nazi fighting power made them feel a little panicked, they did not feel that they needed to be saved by Asians, and even it was psychologically difficult to accept directly bringing the Asian yellow empire to Europe.

In the end, they still hope that the Nazis can clash with Soviet Russia, although the Nazis and Soviet Russia partnered to carve up Poland, so that they have some suspicions, but they tend to suspect that Soviet Russia took advantage of the fire to rob, but when in November, when a million Soviet troops suddenly entered the territory of Finland, Britain and France were completely panicked, they seriously suspected that Soviet Russia had already reached some kind of secret agreement with Germany, and their intelligence officers also supported this statement, otherwise Soviet Russia would not dare to divide troops to attack Finland at this time.

The judgment that Russia would attack another neighbor only if it was sure that it would not be attacked by the Nazis convinced that Britain and France had formed a military alliance between the Soviet Union and Germany, and that there must be some kind of agreement between the two evil countries to divide the world.

If this is true, it will be too terrible for Britain and France, and they immediately took action, this time they began to lobby the Chinese government, saying that in the face of the chaos in the world, a big country like China should be responsible for maintaining order, but Pan Xun refused this responsibility, and he was still in a mess and was not in the mood to intervene in the war in Europe.

Britain and France once again asked to see Yang Chao, Yang Chao expressed his dissatisfaction with the invasion of Soviet Russia by neighboring countries, he said that he would not sit idly by, and said that he would once again expand the Tsarist Knights, expanding the Tsarist Knights to one million people.

The purpose was very clear, Britain and France believed that Yang Chao was hinting that they would launch a military operation against the evil empire of Soviet Russia in the name of the Russian Empire, and Britain and France also said that they would definitely take action to stop Soviet Russia.

Soon in the League of Nations meeting, the membership of Soviet Russia was expelled, before they were one of the permanent members of the Executive Yuan of the League of Nations, the past six permanent members, Germany and Italy themselves withdrew, Soviet Russia was expelled, and now there are Britain, France and China, which have really become the three giants, but the League of Nations basically exists in name only.

Later, they would be replaced by the United Nations, which was formed by the United States, but Yang Chao did not want to see the United States intervening in international affairs, so he felt that it was necessary for the League of Nations to exist, because the United States did not join the alliance.

Yang Chao did what he said, and soon returned to the Baikal Palace with his wife, but left his daughter at Qingdao Ocean University, she easily integrated into her classmates, and Yang Chao didn't want her to return to that gloomy palace.

After returning to Irkutsk, the capital of the Russian Empire, Yang Chao immediately published newspapers around the world as the head of the Tsar Knights to recruit soldiers of the Tsar Knights.

There must be a strong enough force in hand, so that when France surrenders and the British are desperate, they will see Yang Chao as a straw that can save their lives. (To be continued.) )
