752 fully supported Germany

Beijing at the end of January was covered in snow. 【 I want: super fast update 】

Although the war is still going on, the atmosphere of welcoming the New Year throughout the country has been very strong, and no matter where they are, everyone is full of expectations for this big festival of the Chinese.

The Prime Minister's Office was also infected by this atmosphere, and the workers began to whitewash the exterior walls, but the interior was still busy, and several ministers of the Interior who stayed in Beijing all rushed to Tang Shaoyi's office, and Long Guozhang, who was sitting on the sofa, was holding a cigar and pinching the intelligence a little surprised, he didn't expect that just hitting Arizona and surrounding part of the US military would bring such a major change.

Zhong Wenyao, who had just returned from Australia, frowned: "Can you be sure?" Didn't you say the other day that it would be at least April? And wouldn't it be too hasty for the UK to do so? ”

"This information was forwarded to us by Germany." Zhao Long, who had just returned from the United States, immediately said: "Chief of Staff Wang Shizhen has also confirmed in Germany that there are signs of a major movement of the British and French troops, and it is said that the King of Spain will carry out a general mobilization of the whole country in the next few days. ”

"If this fights, I'm afraid it's going to be a decisive battle, right?" Long Guozhang squinted his eyes and squeezed into the sofa like an old fox with a cigar in his mouth: "Do you know how many troops the Entente will invest?" ”

"It is still difficult to determine the total number, but according to our calculations, the first line of troops gathered in Britain and France on the Western Front alone is more than 4 million, and troops are still being mobilized from all over the country, plus Spain, Portugal, it is said that Italy will also send part of the army into the Western Front, so the total number may reach between 6 million and 7 million!"

"God, 6 million, is there still any room left in Paris? Are the French really willing to pay the price of the whole of Paris? Hearing such a large number, Rong Yu was also a little dumbfounded, if it is really invested like this, that is to say, more than half of the current forces of the European Entente will be invested in the battle to attack Paris, and Paris will definitely be destroyed in this scale!

Duan Fei said: "According to our own intelligence, at present, Britain and France are still divided on whether to attack Paris in an all-out way, France is also in chaos at present, and some signs of anti-war and revolution have begun to appear, last month alone in Porto, the French government arrested no less than 400 capitulators who propagated the revolution and gave up resistance, and the idea of besieging Paris without attacking it is still the mainstream, but Xia Fei has already released words to fight this battle, and we estimate that Britain will also make some commitments to the destruction of Paris, but no matter what, We estimate that this battle is inevitable! ”

Feng Qi is right, this war is inevitable, whether it is military or political, Britain and the United States must grit their teeth and do it even if they don't want to fight anymore, after losing the United States, the big rich man, their current domestic reserves will not last for a year!

At present, Chief of Staff Wang Shizhen knows that the number of German troops sent to Paris from all over the country has exceeded 3 million, and it is said that it will eventually reach at least 5 million, which is equivalent to nearly 80% of Germany's troops! In addition, Germany also demanded that Austria-Hungary increase its offensive against Italy, and Ottoman and Bulgaria against Greece and Serbia, so that we could also increase our cooperation with the Ottoman attack on North Africa to further contain the Entente forces. Chen Ping continued: "We predicted that Britain and France would attack Paris as early as April, because their consumption in the first two major battles was too great, but from the current point of view, Britain and France have prepared a bad plan to get no assistance from the United States after Wilson's resignation, and are ready to forcibly attack Paris, and even want to take this opportunity to force Germany to withdraw from the war in one fell swoop." ”

"Forcing Germany to withdraw? Is it possible? ”

"Yes!"

Chen Ping is not there, and only Zhao Long and Long Guozhang are left to have a say in the military, so of course Zhao Long will not let everyone explain: "After more than two years of attrition, plus the previous two wars, the total number of available troops in Germany has dropped to less than 7 million, plus the resumption of domestic production some time ago, and the withdrawal of many workers, so the possibility of remobilization is not large." Austria-Hungary was now suffering from internal contradictions, and Italy, Serbia, and Greece could not help, the Ottoman Empire needed to strengthen North Africa and deal with Greece, and Bulgaria was also under pressure.

It was precisely this that Kitchener dared to invest heavily in a decisive battle in advance, he did not need to completely annihilate the German troops, as long as half or even a third of the German army was consumed, Germany would have to withdraw from Paris, or even retreat all the way to Belgium. If Britain and France can bite, it is not impossible to force Germany to withdraw! ”

Feng Qi also continued with a solemn expression: "Yesterday, our Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially received an official letter from Germany, and they hope that we can reconsider the possibility of sending troops into Germany. ”

"Send troops into Europe?!"

"Yes." Feng Qi nodded: "And we have also received a piece of news, that is, the British, American and French teams stationed in India have made a big move, and some of the troops left for Hyderabad yesterday to go to Afghanistan and enter Central Asia, and I have asked Lu Zhengxiang to officially note Lenin and the Soviets on this matter." ”

"Russia is going to re-enter the war?" Tang Xiao's eyes widened and he asked.

"It is impossible for Russia to re-enter the war, now that their civil war has broken out, and now the Soviets are not in an advantageous position, these troops are just trying to replicate Allenby's previous move, from Afghanistan to Central Asia and then withdraw from Russia to Europe." Feng Qi hurriedly explained.

"Damn, that's a bully! I knew that I would have killed Lenin with one shot! As soon as he heard that Britain was going to play the old tricks again, Long Guozhang shouted hatefully.

"The Entente also has hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in India, and it is not so simple to think about withdrawing across thousands of kilometers, so this factor is not a great threat to Germany, but we have to consider the Indian Grand Fleet more, although Campbell has been holding on to his lair for the past year, but now it is time for life and death, it is inevitable that he will not fight to the death." As soon as Zhao Long finished speaking, Long Guozhang gritted his teeth and said: "You can rest assured that you have been waiting for him to come out for a long time, if you didn't have to make way for landing in the United States some time ago, you would have served him a pot long ago and wanted to escape back?" There are no doors! ”

After Tang Shaoyi stretched out his hand to calm everyone down, he said slowly: "Now Sun Jiugong is negotiating with the US military envoy, and I don't know if it will succeed, but one thing is certain, whether it is to defeat them or take the initiative to surrender, Wilson's resignation is inevitable, and it is basically a foregone conclusion that Britain and France will attack Paris in advance, so yesterday the emperor sent me a telegram, asking us to support Germany as much as possible during this time." ”

"It's okay to have supplies, but it's ...... to send troops."

"I don't approve of sending troops, although we have achieved some advantages on the American side, it is still too early to talk about victory, and we don't know how big the consumption is, if we rashly intervene in Europe, it will be a bottomless pit again, and our weapons and equipment support is different from Germany, and it will be a big trouble to transport ammunition."

"Tang Xiao is right, it is not possible to send troops, but I think that if you don't send troops, Germany has a high probability of losing this battle, so let's see if you can relax some export restrictions?"

"Lao Yan, what do you mean, you don't want to sell my battleship to Germany!" When Long Guozhang heard Yan Fu's words, he immediately pricked up his ears, he was still planning to sweep across the Atlantic, how could he send it to Germany at this time.

"Don't beat your mind!" Tang Shaoyi glared at the commander of the dragon, who only knew how to chop vegetables, and turned his head and said: "I have discussed this matter with the emperor and Chen Ping, and they also feel that it is necessary to provide some weapons support to Germany now, but the export restrictions must be stuck for a period of time, and at present, they can only focus on second-class equipment such as ammunition and trucks." ”

"That's no problem, we have enough captured weapons, and there are thousands of Maxim machine guns, so we can give them to Germany." When they heard that Commander Long was playing second-hand reselling again, everyone couldn't laugh or cry, but this is also a good way, after all, the main battle equipment used by China itself is too sensitive, and once it is exported, it will have an impact on its own technological monopoly after the war.

"Then it's decided, everyone will try to put aside what they are doing during this time, and this time, we must fully support Germany!"

"In addition, Sun Jiugong has also assured me that in addition to the possibility of a big battle in Phoenix City, he will temporarily stop the main attack for a month, and we will also use this time to take a breath." Tang Shaoyi smiled: "Hehe, just let everyone have a good year." ”

"Hehe, yes, our old dragon hasn't had a reunion dinner with his daughter and son-in-law for a long time." "This old horseman." As soon as Commander Long said this, everyone was full of black lines on their foreheads, because this guy was too loving, as if others didn't know that he had a son-in-law.

While everyone was laughing, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the office.

"Prime Minister, there's a telegram from the front." The secretary walked in and said, "The First Army has taken over San Francisco smoothly in three hours, and the destruction of the city is not very great. ”

"Oh? Hehe, this is big news, and it should be sent out immediately so that the whole country can celebrate. Tang Shaoyi stood up happily, and everyone present also breathed a sigh of relief, what they were afraid of was that San Francisco would be blown up, because San Francisco is of great significance to the Chinese, and there are still 50,000 Chinese and a considerable number of Japanese living in it, and if it really attacks it, it will inevitably cause a large number of casualties among the expatriates, so the troops are very careful in attacking San Francisco, and now I heard that it is indeed worth celebrating if it is basically intact and taken down.

However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the secretary's face darkened first: "Prime Minister, the troops searched the residential area and found ....... ”

"Found what?"

"Most of the Chinese and expatriates from other countries who originally lived in San Francisco were transferred by the U.S. military before the landing, and according to the captured U.S. soldiers, most of them were sent to concentration camps in Nevada before we landed!"

"What!"

The grumpy Long Guozhang jumped up at once, what is a concentration camp? Isn't it ...... that everyone here knows that it is built in the desert state of Nevada!

"Help, tell the troops, save them!"
