1890 King of Southeast Asia
Chapter 860 Charles is here
It would take half a year to build a temporary railway of 100 kilometers, even if it was rushed. In addition, the manpower and material resources occupied by military mobilization would take even longer.
However, with unlimited fuel support, various vehicles can be used as transportation tools to transfer materials on the ground before the railway is connected.
This is very troublesome. Zheng Lei has thought about taking down the transit station of Jirez, especially now that the troops and materials are well prepared and the battle can be ended within a month.
However, the aerial reconnaissance conducted by Zheng Lei before the formal attack showed that the railway in Jirez had been demolished on a large scale, the roadbed was also destroyed, and it was unknown how much corresponding materials were left.
In this case, Jirez has lost enough strategic value. After all, it takes time and energy to take it down, and it still takes time to rebuild the railway.
Especially for delicate work such as repair, although it may consume less materials, it will definitely take more time, because all hidden dangers must be eliminated. Who knows if the Ottomans will bury mines under the roadbed?
It is better to continue the construction of the temporary narrow-gauge railway.
Because Girez had lost its strategic value, the Ottomans had already evacuated many people from the Kurdish mountains in the north, and the troops originally stationed here could also be transferred. A small number of main forces plus a local garrison were needed to keep an eye on this place and prevent it from becoming a stronghold for the Ottomans to attack.
From mid-March to early April, the side effects of the Russian offensive left the Germans with no energy to launch an offensive on the Western Front, and Britain and France were also happy to recuperate.
The calm situation was not broken until mid-April. Under the leadership of the British, Britain and France launched a new round of offensives on the Western Front. The British, who only remembered to eat but not to fight, still ignited the beginning of the summer offensive with overwhelming artillery fire.
The Germans began to withdraw their troops in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and returned to the Western Front to resist the British attack.
In order to support the offensive on the Western Front, the Italians launched an attack on the Austro-Hungarian Empire on the two fronts they controlled. However, they fought back and forth, and many people died but did not advance a step, and there was even a risk of being counterattacked.
Speaking of which, Russia launched the Brusilov Offensive to help relieve pressure on the Western Front and Italy, and Italy was in urgent need of help just after the war began...
At the end of April, after the British offensive was blocked, they began to urge the Huaxia Empire to launch a new round of offensive as soon as possible...
…………
May 1st, Labor Day, even during the war, the war was not so urgent, so Liu Yiming still asked for holidays in batches.
Of course, the holiday is only one day, but it is already very good, at least better than those countries in Europe and the United States.
Europe is trapped in the war and dare not relax at all. The United States is a pure capitalist country. Before the confrontation between the two poles, the status of ordinary workers...
Let's put it this way, driving a tank to bloody suppress the World War I veterans who were asking for wages, this kind of person almost became the president of the United States. Even the soldiers who control violence are like this, what else do we need to say about the status of workers?
"It's so peaceful and beautiful. I really miss the days before the war. London was so lively." Charles sat leisurely in the luxury car, looking at the lively market outside the window.
"Maybe because of the war, the Chinese Empire government did not hold a celebration this year. In previous years, there would be a temple fair today... It is a lively gathering with the participation of all people, and there will be Chinese circus performances."
"This year's liveliness is much lower than in previous years."
Cyril also looked out the window, and he sat next to Charles.
Because the vehicles passed through the downtown area with a large flow of people, there was a little congestion for a while. Charles could clearly see that many families were walking around with their children with enthusiasm.
"Compared to London, it is already very lively here. Because of the continuation of the war, local supplies are extremely scarce, and daily necessities are distributed per person and rationing is implemented."
"The last time I saw so many people on the street was Christmas in 1915. That was the first year of the war, and everyone was optimistic about the development of the war."
"On Christmas this year, there were only dozens of people celebrating on the entire Alice Street. In order to avoid bombing, London implemented a blackout at night."
"If this continues, the army may be fine, but the people of the empire will go crazy."
Charles became a little uninterested.
He is now the leading capitalist in London, with huge assets in his hands. He may even become a member of the cabinet, with power, wealth, and status.
Such an achievement is a height that he will never reach in the Royal Navy.
When a person reaches this height, apart from continuing to climb up, the only thing he can do is enjoy life, but the current situation in Britain makes it difficult for him to enjoy life.
After all, Britain is his motherland, and he has witnessed Britain's most powerful and prosperous time, which is in sharp contrast to the depression under the war.
He was also one of the witnesses and main promoters of the establishment of the Huaxia Empire. When he was a major, he persuaded the captain to sell the rifles and several small cannons stored on the ship to Liu Ming, who was still a civilian at the time.
Without these rifles, Liu Ming would never have taken Surabaya so easily, even if the Dutch in Surabaya were straw bags.
His original intention was just to cause some trouble to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, after all, Britain and the Netherlands were also competitors in Southeast Asia.
Who knew that Liu Ming would be out of control later.
A grass platform to today's huge empire, a prosperous and prosperous motherland that flourished today, the comparison of this made Charles have to make a wave.
After the vehicle passed through the downtown area, the traffic congestion was no longer existed. Without 1, they went to Ziwei Palace, which is Liu Yiming's residence.
"Charles Charles, you don't know how difficult our diplomats are. Even if I am an ambassador, every time I want to see the emperor of the Huaxia Empire, it takes a long time."
"And you, I just said to their diplomators that you arrived, the emperor of the Huaxia Empire had time to see us."
"If you are the Minister of Foreign Affairs, I believe our work will do a lot."
Siril could not help but feel that the gap in the guards reported and expressed his willingness to stand on the team.
Silil is also a person and wants to improve, but he is no longer young, and there is little room for promotion.
According to the convention of the affairs officer that cannot be served as the Cabinet Minister, he resigned and entered the parliament and then became a minister. Then he could only fight for honor.
Whether it is a medal or a title, it is good to be able to take 1 step.
"Without the effort of Mr. Ambassador, I couldn't do anything alone ..."
The start of the Charles car with the light road with Cyril to test each other, testing the value of the other party, and the opponent's offer.
This kind of thing, during his time when he entered the parliament, was already familiar with the car.
After a while, before entering the topic, Wang Linhai came over to pick up Charles in person. Charles and Siril followed behind Wang Linhai and walked towards the guest room.
Liu Yiming was waiting in the guest room, although it was just arrived.
"Hey! Charles, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Liu 1 Ming came forward enthusiastically and greeted Charles who had just entered the door.
"Why don't you notify me in advance? I'm so good to pick you up, I really see it ..."
Liu 1 Ming didn't give Siril a chance to speak. He took Charles and sat down and began to narrate the old, carefully counting the time they met last time.
"1 The year, Charles, if it weren't for your face, I really dare not recognize you and see your belly." After a while, Liu 1 Ming laughed at Charles without politely.
"Vomit! Your Majesty, I don't want to. I try to exercise every day and control my diet, but I am too busy. You know that our business is too sought -after. Some people invite me to the party every day."
"For business, some gatherings cannot be pushed away. I have worked hard to control my figure. My doctor said that I will be dangerous again, and I don’t want it ..."
Charles began to deliberately or unintentionally pull the relationship, which seemed a little restrained, and now let go.
No one can reach these steps, and no one is a fool. It is only relying on the so -called good luck, but no one will soon be glory.
Charles emphasized the personal relationship between him and Liu Yiming, so that he could get a larger space in the conversation.
Anyway, it is very rampant in Europe and has no cover in Europe.
"Charles, thank you, he provided Xu Sunming with his residence and entertainment. Otherwise, they stayed in a small house for so long, and I was afraid that they would be sick."
"By the way, Xu Sunming knows that you are coming, saying that you want to have a banquet today for you, I will tell him! Today Charles eats here."
"He said: It is a pity that he will go to the Western Pacific Fleet Base to report at night. He can't think of you in person."
Liu 1 said with a smile.
One of this remark, Charles's eye -catching became awkward, but Silil, who looked at them with a smile without changing her face.
"Do you have anything to do when you come to Huaxia this time?"
After chatting for a while, Liu 1 Ming stopped it, and sorted out 1 clothes, and then asked Charles and Siril.
"This ..." Charles hesitated for a moment, which was the opportunity to speak.
"Your Majesty, we represent the British Empire, hoping that the Huaxia Empire will join the summer offensive of other allies." Silil quickly said.
Let them talk about it, or let Liu Yiming talk about it, I don't know when to say.
"Summer offensive? I read the newspaper, I heard that the situation is not very good?"
"But I have a doubt, why did the Huaxia Empire not received documents related to the summer offensive before?" Liu 1 asked ...
