When the air force in Sardinia began to take to the skies, the second wing of the air force deployed on Laute Island and the fifth wing of the air force deployed in Medan were dispatched at the same time, with the second wing targeting the Lion City and the fifth wing targeting Jakarta.

British Malaya, the last British colony in Southeast Asia and the closest colony to Lan Fong proper, was attacking the Western Province of Lan Fong, and Lan Fong was also attacking British British Malaya.

In this battle that decided the fortunes of the country, Lan Fang and Britain invariably chose conservative tactics, starting from stabilizing themselves first, and gradually approaching the core of the other side.

The difference was that Lanfang could strategically abandon Sardinia, but Britain had to defend British Malaya.

Once Lan Fang occupies LinkedIn Malaya, then Lan Fang's air force can start directly from the Malay Peninsula and threaten the security of India, and the British may not care about losing British Malaya, but if India is lost, it will be an unbearable burden for the British.

As far as the current national strength is concerned, Britain with its vast colonies is indeed a strong national strength, but its strong national strength depends on military strength to show, and it is precisely on the issue of military strength that Britain's current situation is embarrassing, and it has a somewhat strong taste of being strong in the middle.

After Britain declared its entry into the war, as in the previous world war, it issued a "conscription order" to all the colonies, calling on the people of the colonies to stand up and defend the British Empire.

This is where the embarrassing fact arises that the British Call-up Order did not receive the same wide response as it did in the last world war, and that the Australians and Canadians who had distinguished themselves in the last world war did not respond adequately to the British, casting a shadow over the conquest of the British Empire.

Both Australians and Canadians have reasons not to go to war, and Australians are now on their own and have not yet emerged from the shadow of the last world war.

In the last world war, Australia's adult men were almost wiped out, and now only six years later, the younger generation of Australians has not yet grown up, so Australians can't do anything if they want to go to war.

Besides, the British have not yet paid off the pensions that should have been paid to Australia after the last world war, which has made Australians complain, and they have long been dissatisfied with the British, and it is difficult to recruit Australians at this time.

The situation in Canada was even more troublesome, because before the last World War, Canada had a population of only 8 million, but it was with these 8 million people that Canada put together an army of 620,000 people to fight in the First World War

In the world wars, the Canadians and Australians performed equally well, and after the Battle of the Somme, the Canadians earned a reputation as "vanguards", and in the Battle of Vimy Ridge, which took place in April 1917, the Canadians paid a heavy price, winning the Battle of Vimy Ridge for the Allies, and also earning Canada the status to be able to participate in the Paris Peace Conference as an independent nation.

The World War killed 66,000 Canadians and wounded 170,000, a ratio comparable to that of Australians.

Regrettably, however, after the end of the World War, Arthur Kerry, the commander who commanded the Canadian forces in the Battle of Vimy Ridge, was tried on the grounds that the troops under the command of Arthur Kerry had suffered too many casualties and had caused irreparable damage to Canada.

It's really miserable, even if the Canadians want to participate in the war now, it is estimated that no Canadian general dares to lead the troops to fight, and if they lose, they are national sinners, and if they win, they will be judged, and the Canadian generals are all rats in the bellows, and they are angry at both ends.

In this way, the only people who responded to the call of the British government were the Indians.

Indians are indeed very populous, and in the last world war, millions of Indian soldiers fought in Europe, and they were also born and died for the benefit of the British Empire.

During the entire First World War, the Allies never launched a war with Indians as the main force, and the Indians undertook auxiliary tasks on the battlefield, digging trenches, moving things, and sending the wounded, which was similar to the tasks of the Chinese workers at the beginning, and the British did not dare to let the Indians undertake any difficult combat tasks.

But even so, the Indians were still the brightest jewel in the crown of the British king, and without the participation of the Indians, Britain would have to recruit women into battle, and although this had a precedent in the last world war, it was definitely not a scenario that the British wanted to see.

The problems faced by Britain are the same as those of France, Australia, and Canada, and Britain also suffered heavy casualties in the last world war, although it is not as tragic as one casualty for every 28 people in France, but the ratio of Britain has also reached 57 to 1, and the new generation of British vitality has not yet grown up, which makes the population structure of Britain also face a situation of lack of success, with Britain's current strength, if there is no foreign force to join, Britain may be able to hold out for a year and a half, but no matter how long it is, it will not be able to hold on, Unless the British send women into battle as well.

After George V issued the "Call-up Order", the Indian Viceroyalty promised to send no less than two million troops to the European continent and the British mainland, which was of great significance to the British government, although the combat effectiveness of the Indian troops was not very good, but at least it would make the British side look powerful, so India was a strategic place that the British had to protect, and if there was no India, the British could now admit defeat, because the British mainland had little war potential to tap.

Lanfang Britain, France, Australia and Canada and other countries, Lanfang is a young country, the domestic standing army now has two million people, over time, Lanfang can recruit more troops, and even double the total number of troops is not a problem, so Lanfang has been maintaining expansion over the years, and Britain has been maintaining restraint, this is not that the British pity Lanfang, but the British can't afford to fight, and now the reason why war will be declared, this is the British have no choice but to choose.

If there is a choice, the British will wait until the next generation of the British grows up, and then it will be the time for the British and Lanfang to have a showdown. It's a pity that Lanfang's expansion momentum is too fierce, and the British are no longer able to suppress it, so they can only give it a go.

For Britain, British Malaya is the forward position of Britain, in order to effectively defend against Lan Fang's superior air force, the British have also hollowed out their minds, and even have thrown away the so-called "gentlemanly demeanor" and defended against Lan Fang's attack by any means.

Everyone knows that there are many ethnic Chinese living in British Malaya, and these Chinese have become the target of the British, in order to better defend Jakarta and the Lion City, the British have built military camps in Chinese residential areas, and the military barracks and civilian houses are mixed together, which has caused great trouble to the air raids of the Lanfang Air Force.

In order to avoid accidental injury, the Lanfang government and the British government sent a message to the Chinese in British Malaya through various Chinese communities in the Lion City before the declaration of war, asking these Chinese to leave Jakarta and the Lion City as soon as possible to avoid being accidentally injured in the war.

The result is not satisfactory, although the Chinese in British Malaya also have Chinese ancestry, but the recognition of Lan Fang is not high, and even the identity of the Chinese is not high, before the establishment of Lan Fang, the Chinese in British Malaya bullied the Chinese are the most ferocious, if those Chinese want to leave British Malaya, then a few years ago they can leave British Malaya to Lan Fang, since those Chinese refused to go to Lan Fang at that time, they will not now.

Therefore, when the Chinese community in the Lion City sent a message to the Chinese community, many Chinese in British Malaya did not take it seriously, and some Chinese were even arrested by the British colonial authorities because of this incident, on the grounds of spreading rumors and disturbing the social order.

Arrested at the beginning of this great war, the fate can be imagined, those Chinese were basically killed as soon as they were put in prison, and the British would rather kill 3,000 by mistake on this issue than let go of one.

When the news reached Lanfang, Qin Zhiyuan's heart was as strong as iron, and the order he gave to Zhou Hongguang was to carry out indiscriminate bombing, as long as it was a valuable military target, it would be blown up, no matter where those military targets were built, even if it was a residential area.

Since the Chinese who refused to leave British Malaya were determined to become banana people, let them prove their loyalty to the British Empire with their lives.

This is a war, there is no mercy in the slightest, Britain arrested those Chinese who "spread rumors" in British Malaya, and the Lanfang government is doing the same thing in Lanfang itself, since the start of the war, in just over half a month, the Lanfang government has sentenced hundreds of people to death for "espionage", most of them are Westerners and Japanese, of course, there are inevitably Chinese.

Qin Zhiyuan didn't even let go of those "pure Chinese" who had betrayed the Chinese community, not to mention those banana people, there is only one kind of Chinese in Qin Zhiyuan's eyes, as long as he identifies with Han culture and Chinese tradition, then even if he is a Westerner, Qin Zhiyuan will allow them to join Lanfang's nationality, but if they don't identify with Chinese culture and take the initiative to act as an enemy of Lanfang as a "leading party", Qin Zhiyuan will not think that they are blinded, betrayal is betrayal, there is no reason to speak of, and there is no room for forgiveness.

Laute Island and Medan are only about 300 kilometers away from the Lion City and Jakarta, which is a maximum of an hour for the Lanfang Air Force to reach its destination.

The British are still prepared, lighting smoke in the Lion City and Jakarta, and at the same time raising huge balloons to block the city, at the same time there are air defense positions near the city, and there are British air force guards over the city, but this is not a problem for the Lanfang Air Force, the Lanfang Second Air Wing and the Fifth Air Wing both have sixty fighters, all of which are "Eagle Falcons", no matter which wing, they have the ability to defeat the British Malayan Air Force alone, for the Lanfang Air Force, Jakarta and the Lion City are now undefended cities.
