Chapter 317: When the declaration of war is underway

readx;

As the chief engineer of the "Sunshine Project" of the Imperial Scientific Research Administration, Tao Wenke was extremely entangled and self-reproaching at the moment, you must know that he was tantamount to opening the lid of Pandora's box with his own hands, and the demon of chemical weapons was created by him, and the screams of the prisoners of war who were used for experiments just now made Tao Wenke frightened. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Tao Wenke looked at the intoxicated smile on Lin Haijiang's face and felt extremely sad for a while, as the best chemist in the empire, Tao Wenke's ambition can be described as very ambitious, his ideal is to revitalize the country with industry! But he definitely didn't expect that his talent would be used as a weapon to kill, which Tao Wenke felt extremely sad! And all this seems to be different from everything that the Führer promised himself at the beginning? How could he become an indirect executioner?

Lin Haijiang noticed that Chief Engineer Tao Wenke's expression seemed to be a little wrong, so he gently patted the shoulder of Tao Wenke, who was a little depressed, and said, "Liberal Arts, are you uncomfortable?" Do you want to have a doctor come over? ”

When Tao Wenke saw that he was the Führer, he was slightly stunned, and said with some sadness: "Führer, I am a chemist, and the purpose of my study and research in the chemical industry is to benefit the people, but、But you see, who have I become now?" I've become a real executioner, butcher, me? ”

Lin Haijiang looked at Tao Wenke solemnly and said: "I don't know what you have become, I only know that you are a hero of the empire, you will be famous with the history of the empire, the weapons you invent will make the empire reduce how much sacrifice in the future battles, otherwise there will be countless sons and daughters who have lost their fathers, countless wives who have lost their husbands, countless mothers who have lost their sons, everything you do now is to benefit the people, you must always remember that what you have benefited can only be the Chinese nation, and now I want to represent the imperial political axe, and myself, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you and your team for your hard work, for which I will award the Sunshine Engineering R&D team the first prize for imperial scientific research progress, and award all the staff the Blue Heart Medal, and award you the Imperial Purple Gold Medal of Tao Wenke, Chief Engineer, in recognition of your outstanding contributions to the imperial scientific research cause. ”

In the extremely fierce applause, Lin Haijiang looked around and smiled: "Everyone, I said a long time ago that science and technology will always be the primary productive force, and every success of you corresponds to the blood of the imperial soldiers, I want to ask you all to remember that you are also saving the lives of the imperial soldiers while researching, you are the heroes of the empire, and the empire and the people will not forget you!" ”

With mustard gas and chlorine shells, Lin Haijiang's mood began to become extremely comfortable, and the use of these weapons Lin Haijiang directly assigned them to the Northern Military Region without thinking about it, and asked the Northern Military Region to do more experiments to ensure the safety of transportation and storage, and the first batch of qualified gas masks were all distributed to the Northern Military Region.

Lin Haijiang was using every minute and every second he could use to prepare, and the Chinese Empire was running like a machine that had been activated.

In the early morning of October 20, 1868, there was an accident in the Rhine area on the border between the German Empire and France because the patrols of the two sides misfired.

The time limit for the final reply from the Germans to the French was seventy-two hours, and just after forty hours, the French rejected Germany's powerless demand, and Kaiser Wilhelm I declared Germany a state of war and declared war on France!

Twelve hours later, on October 24, 1868, France officially declared war on Germany, followed by the Russian Empire, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, Belgium, and Great Britain within a week.

The Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Empires, which were allies, declared war on France, the Russian Empire, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, Belgium, and the United Kingdom a few days later, and the countries declared war on Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire, respectively.

By the time Lin Haijiang learned that war clouds had gathered over Europe, it was already twenty days after the German Empire declared war on France, and due to the British deliberate blockade of the news, the information that should have been received in half a month was delayed for more than a week. But the news from the North Sea that the Russians did not have a large-scale military movement?

According to the results of the reconnaissance of the Chekov infiltration troops, it seems that the main forces of the Russian army are being mobilized by rail to the Eastern Front? Lin Haijiang stood in front of the world map and thought for a long time, the Chinese Empire, as Germany's most solid ally, seemed to have deliberately omitted the Chinese Empire in the second large-scale centralized declaration of war? Could it be that the cunning Entente wanted to give themselves the illusion of getting by?

Li Anmin, who participated in the emergency meeting, hesitated for a moment and said: "Führer, I think the empire should fulfill its promise to the German Empire and immediately declare war on the Entente countries such as Britain, France, and Russia. ”

Lin Haijiang glanced at Li Anmin and said: "I know what is very important in this, and now I'm afraid that the Entente side is still unaware of the existence of my Chinese Empire's expeditionary force, right?" ”

Li Anmin nodded and said: "The secrecy policy of the imperial side is very well formulated, the troops and officers are set off in batches, Zheng Zhipeng and the staff of the expeditionary force are sent to Germany in the name of military exchanges, and the troops are sent to Germany in batches in the name of training young skilled workers, the Imperial Command General Administration has given the commander of the expeditionary force maximum power according to your request of the Führer, and the expeditionary force will appear in Germany in the situation of the Chinese Imperial Volunteer Army, and it will be used as a strategic whole, which the German side has promised us." ”

Lin Haijiang turned the globe next to his desk, took a deep breath and said: "Order the main fleet of the Imperial Navy to enter the Indian Ocean and start attacking British India, and send six Nanling-class strategic cruisers to Germany to participate in the battle against the British trade and shipping lines, our warships have been replaced with the latest large heavy oil fuel oil mixed new boiler steam turbines, in terms of power, the British turtle shell is only fourteen knots of speed Dreadnought class can not catch up, and the five integrated divisions of the Marine Corps are assembled in the Imperial Fortress, Once the Imperial Navy has dealt with the main forces of the British Royal Navy, a landing operation will be carried out against Australia! In addition, the Northern Military District was given the task of advancing northward, and the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Army Corps of the New Russian Liberation Army, to which Chekov belonged, were attached to the 10 armies drawn from the Northern Military District of our country, and launched a fierce and short-term attack on the entire territory of Russia, with the focus on weakening Russia's war strength, creating a large number of refugees for Russia, and dragging down the Russians. ”

After Lin Haijiang's series of orders were issued, the confidential staff officers on the side began to get busy, and Li Anmin, who was standing on the side, whispered: "Your Excellency, have you forgotten something?" Something very important? ”

Lin Haijiang had an inexplicable expression, pondered for a while, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Why Li Anmin, you also learn from those ladies in my family?" Let me guess anything? I'm telling you that's a downright bad thing. ”

Li Anmin was also very helpless and said: "Your Excellency, you have issued a combat order, but you haven't declared war yet?" ”

"A declaration of war?" Lin Haijiang took a deep breath, to be honest, Lin Haijiang's heart struggled for a long time before, declaring war on the Entente group is undoubtedly a very beautiful thing that can even leave a name in history, as soon as the future generations mention the infinite beauty of declaring war on all countries, they can think of Lin Haijiang, the first head of the empire, but in the final analysis, Lin Haijiang is a pragmatist, and declaring war is tantamount to waking up the other party!

Lin Haijiang looked at Li Anmin with a slight smile and said, "My chief elder, what is the essence of war?" In my own opinion, the essence of war is to destroy more enemies with the fastest speed and the least cost, and it is my own honor to declare war, it is one thing for the Russians to be beaten in Moscow, but it is another thing to be ready to be beaten, and as the decision-makers of the future strategy of the empire, we are more responsible for the lives of our soldiers. ”

Lin Haijiang paused for a moment and continued: "The purpose of the war is to suddenly have a surname, so I was not prepared to declare war at all. I still have the title of executioner, butcher, demon, etc. above my head, so what's the harm in having a few more? Verbal criticism? I can't pull it long, I can't tear me, I'm afraid of them? ”

Li Anmin looked at the respected Führer with great admiration, looking at the whole world, he could trample on international conventions, morality, and justice wherever he wanted, and trampled on it at such a high level, I am afraid that there would be no one else except the imperial head in front of him.

Although, Li Anmin had been waiting for this inevitable war to come before, Li Anmin, who had been fully prepared, suddenly realized at this moment that he was not ready.

Li Anmin's favorite sentence is that Lin Haijiang's axiom is only within the range of my cannon, for this wise sentence Li Anmin has almost reached the state of worship, for this world surname war Li Anmin is excited and has more expectations, as the head of state often says, born in peacetime is the sorrow of a soldier! The honor of a soldier can only be forged with the blood of the enemy!
