Chapter 752 Full support for Germany

Yanjing at the end of January, wrapped in silver.

Although the war is still going on, the atmosphere of welcoming the New Year across the country has been very strong. No matter where you are, everyone is full of expectations for this Chinese people's biggest festival.

The Prime Minister's Office was also infected by this atmosphere. The workers began to whitewash the outer walls, but the interior was still busy. Several cabinet ministers left in Yanjing rushed to Tang Shaoyi's office. Long Guozhang, who was sitting on the sofa with a cigar in his arms, was a little surprised. He didn't expect that it was just a hit. Arizona, which surrounds part of the U.S. military, will bring such a major change.

Zhong Wenyao, who just returned from Australia, frowned: "Are you sure? Didn't you say a few days ago that it would be at least April? And will it be too hasty for the UK to do this?

"This information was transferred 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 large transfer of the British and French army, and it is said that the king of Spain will mobilize the whole country in the next few days. From these, it can be basically confirmed to be true."

"If there is a fight, I'm afraid it will be a decisive battle, right?" Long Guozhang narrowed his eyes and squeezed into the sofa like an old fox with a cigar in his sip: "Do you know how many troops the Allied Congress has put into it?"

"At present, it is difficult to determine the total number, but according to our calculations, there are more than 4 million troops on the front line of Britain and France alone, and they are still mobilizing troops from all over the country. In addition, Spain and Portugal, it is said that Italy will also send some troops to the west line, so the total number may be Between 6 and 7 million!"

"God, 6 million, can Paris still be left? Are the French really willing to pay the price of the whole Paris? Hearing such a large number, Rong Kui was also a little dumbfounded. If it is really invested in this way, it means that more than half of the troops of the European Allies will be invested in the battle against Paris, and Paris on this scale will definitely be destroyed!

Duan Fei said: "According to our own information, there are still differences between Britain and France on whether to fully attack Paris. France is also very chaotic at present. There are some signs of anti-war and revolution. Last month, in Porto alone, the French political axe arrested no less than 400 propaganda revolution and gave up the surrender of resistance. Pai, and the idea of besieging Paris without attacking is still mainstream, but Xiafei has said that it is going to fight this battle. We estimate that Britain will also make some promises against the destruction of Paris, but in any case, we estimate that this battle is inevitable!"

"Feng Qi is right. This battle is inevitable. Whether it is military or political, even if the United Kingdom and the United States don't want to fight, they must grit their teeth and work hard. After losing the rich man of the United States, their current domestic reserves will not last for a year!

So Germany is now very nervous. At present, the German troops sent to Paris from various places are known to have exceeded 3 million, and it is said that it will eventually reach at least 5 million, which is equivalent to the transfer of nearly 80% of the German troops! In addition, Germany also asked Austria-Hungary to increase its attack on Italy, and Osman and Bulgaria against Greece and Serbia. Let's also increase our cooperation with Osman's attack on North Africa to further contain the Allied forces. Chen Ping continued: "We predicted that Britain and France would not attack Paris until April at the earliest, because they consumed too much in the first two big battles, but at present, Britain and France have made the worst plan for Wilson's resignation without American assistance, ready to forcibly attack Paris, and even want to take this opportunity to force it in one fell swoop. Germany withdrew from the war.

"Forcing Germany to withdraw? Is it possible?"

"Yes!"

Chen Ping is not here, and only Zhao Long and Long Guozhang have the most say in the military, so of course, Zhao Long will not allow him to explain to everyone: "After more than two years of consumption, coupled with the previous two wars, the total number of available troops in Germany has dropped to less than 7 million, and domestic production will be resumed some time ago. A lot of workers have also been pulled back, so it is unlikely that they will be mobilized again. Austria-Hungary now has a lot of domestic contradictions, and Italy, Serbia and Greece are unable to help. The Ottoman Empire needs to strengthen North Africa and deal with Greece. Bulgaria is also under pressure.

It is precisely because he saw this that Kitchiner dared to invest heavily in a decisive battle in advance. He did not need to annihede all the German troops. As long as he consumed half or even one-third of the German troops, Germany would have to withdraw from Paris and even return to Belgium all the way. If Britain and France can bite, it is not impossible to force Germany to withdraw!"

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

"Sent troops into Europe?!"

"Yes." Feng Qi nodded: "And we have also received a piece of news that the British, American and French teams stationed in India have undergone major changes. Some of the troops left for Hyderabad yesterday to Afghanistan to enter Central Asia. I have asked Lu Zhengxiang to officially inform Lenin and the Soviets on this matter."

"Is Russia going to join the war again?" Tang Xiao's eyes widened and asked.

"It is impossible for Russia to re-enter the war. At present, their civil war has fully broken out, and now the Soviets are not in an advantage. These troops just want to copy Allenby's previous move and take a detour from Russia to Europe after entering Central Asia from Afghanistan." Feng Qi quickly explained.

"Damn it, it's too bullying! If I had known that, I would have let them kill Lenin with one shot!" Hearing that Britain was going to play old tricks again, Long Guozhang shouted with hatred.

"There are also hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in India. It is not so simple to withdraw across thousands of kilometers at once, so this factor is not a great threat to Germany, but we should consider the Indian fleet more. Although Campbell has not been able to come out of the nest for a year, it is difficult to live and death. He won't fight to the death." As soon as Zhao Long finished speaking, Long Guozhang gritted his teeth and said, "You can rest assured about this. I have been waiting for him to come out for a long time. If I hadn't made way for landing in the United States some time ago, I would have taken him up and wanted to escape? There is no door!"

After Tang Shaoyi stretched out her hand to calm everyone down, she slowly said, "Now Sun Jiugong is discussing with the U.S. military envoy. I don't know whether it will succeed, but one thing is certain. Whether it is to kill them or take the initiative to surrender, Wilson's step down is inevitable. Britain and France's early attack on Paris is basically a fore, so yesterday The emperor sent me a telegram to support Germany as much as possible during this period.

"There is no problem with the support materials, but send troops."

"I'm not in favor of sending troops. Although we have some advantages in the United States at present, it is still early to talk about victory, and we don't know how much the consumption is. If we rashly intervene in Europe, it will be a bottomless pit, and our weapons and equipment security are different from Germany's, and it is also a big trouble for ammunition to be transported."

"Tang Xiao is right. It's not good to send troops, but I think there is a high probability that Germany will lose this battle if it doesn't send troops, so let's see if we 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 the Atlantic Ocean. How could he give it to Germany at this time?

"I don't think about you!" Tang Shaoyi stared at Commander Long, who only knew how to pick vegetables, and turned her head and said, "I have discussed this matter with the emperor and Chen Ping. They also feel that it is time to provide some weapons support to Germany, but the export restrictions must be stuck for a period of time. At present, they can only focus on the two types of ammunition and trucks. Prepare it."

"This is no problem. We have enough seized weapons. There are also thousands of Maxim machine guns. It's okay to give them to Germany." Hearing that Commander Long is playing second-hand resale, everyone can't laugh or cry, but this is also the best way. After all, the main combat equipment used by Xinhua is too ** at present. Once exported, it will have an impact on its own technical monopoly after the war.

"Then it's settled. During this period, everyone should try to put the things in their hands. 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, he will temporarily stop the main attack for a month, and we also take advantage of this time to catch our breath." Tang Shaoyi smiled and said, "Ha ha, it's just a good New Year for everyone."

"Ha ha, yes, we Lao Long haven't had a reunion dinner with his daughter and son-in-law for a long time." This old man." As soon as Commander Long said this, everyone was all black on his forehead, because this guy was so shy that he was afraid that others would not know that he had a son-in-law.

In the laughter of everyone, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the office.

"Prime Minister, there is a telegram on the front line." The secretary came in and said, "The First Army and three small hours successfully took over San Francisco, and the destruction of the city was not very great."

"Oh? Ha ha, this is a big news. It should be sent out immediately so that the whole country can celebrate. Tang Shaoyi stood up happily, and everyone present was also relieved. What they were most afraid of was that San Francisco would be blown up, because San Francisco was of great significance to the Chinese. So far, there are still 50,000 Chinese and a considerable number of them. If they really attack, it will inevitably cause a large number of casualties to expatriates, so the army is attacking the old. Jinshan is very careful about things. Now I heard that it is really worth celebrating when it is basically intact.

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

"What did you find?"

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

"What!"

The most grumpy Long Guozhang suddenly jumped up. What is the concentration camp? It's very clear here, and it's built in Nevada, which is all over the desert. Isn't that right?

"Save, tell the army, rescue as soon as possible!"
