Bulgarian Empire
Chapter 116, Trouble
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements!? Recruitment is difficult, although it is a headache, but you can find a way to solve it. The next training will be really troublesome.
It doesn't matter if you don't understand the language. Both German and Bulgarian are the major languages in this era. There are many people who can speak these two languages, so it is not difficult to get together translations.
The real headache is the jungle battle. It is unrealistic to go directly to the Southeast Asian rainforest for training. If you encounter the rebels in advance, you will be the same as the British.
If you can’t go to the Southeast Asian rainforest for training, you can only do the initial training in the Balkan Mountains. After completing the basic training, you will go to the African jungle for actual combat training, and finally go to Southeast Asia for the final training.
It can be said that Bulgaria has done the most adequately in the preparatory work.
Neither the Dutch nor the English have practiced so much.
Now their attitude towards this rebellion is two extremes, either dismissive or fearful. It can be said that psychological factors are the biggest problem for the British and Dutch armies now.
If you know it, you know it, but Ferdinand didn't mean to remind them. If there is no support from his colleagues, how can he highlight the strength of the Bulgarian army?
The worse the performance of the British army, the more uncertain the London government will be, and even many politicians will directly equate the British army with waste snacks in their hearts.
This will be very useful for Bulgaria's future activities in international politics. Just remembering the poor performance of the British Minister of War, the London government can't help but think twice.
If the media promotes it again and instills this awareness into the hearts of the British people, then the future British Empire will not want to make a difference.
A cannon fodder unit, is anyone willing to join? Without enough army, it is very good for the British to keep their existing colonies. If they want to intervene in international affairs, they can only rely on the navy.
Once the navy is finished, the British Empire will also collapse. This is an invisible conspiracy, just waiting for the final fermentation.
As soon as the conscription work was over, Admiral Christopher began to have a headache. He had to select enough officers from these recruits.
The senior officer is okay, he can do the work of a few retired generals and get them out of the mountains. Grass-roots officers are also easy. There are also a large number of veterans and grass-roots officers among these recruits, but the middle-level officers are not all there.
The army is a place to look at performance. It has not been long since the end of the World War. The new generation of officers after the World War has not yet grown up, and these mid-level and high-level officers in the World War are all meritorious officials.
Most of them have made a lot of money, not to mention their wealth, at least they have become middle class, and it is difficult for mercenaries to attract them.
The lack of middle-level officers is only one aspect. The next jungle combat training will be even more troublesome.
The Bulgarian army has no experience in large-scale combat in Southeast Asia, so these instructors can only be drawn from the colonial troops.
Looking at the list of weapons reported from below, Admiral Christopher was almost dizzy, as if he had returned to hundreds of years ago.
Crossbow bolts have appeared in the equipment, in addition to adding flamethrowers, field sabers equipped by colonial troops, and so on.
The most pitiful thing is the jungle field map. If he had this thing, he would have sent it out a long time ago. Is there any need to ask?
In the end, he had to regretfully make a decision. Defeating the main force of the rebel army would be considered as completing the task. The easy job of paying the jungle fee should be left to the Dutch army behind!
Anyway, for the Dutch government, as long as they regain the city, they can give an explanation to the people. They have never really ruled the jungle area.
At that time, the big deal will be to support the new tribal leader and use the locals to beat the locals.
The cost of fighting deep into the jungle is too high. The key factor in determining the outcome is not the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, but the geographical conditions are more important.
No matter how the Bulgarian army is trained,
It is also impossible to be more familiar with the terrain of the Nanyang region than the locals.
Terrain, climate, vegetation, and local creatures may all become helpers of rebels and enemies of mercenaries.
It would be embarrassing if the poisonous insects and dysentery killed a large number of people without seeing the shadow of the rebels.
...
There is not only one person who is also troubled by this. The new British commander-in-chief of Southeast Asia, General Wavell, is also facing the same problem.
Even his troubles were even bigger. These British soldiers were not so obedient. The training had just begun, and they fell sick one after another!
It's not that one or two people are sick. They are all sick in an organized system, and a regiment or a division is collectively sick.
The number of British soldiers who have fallen ill in Southeast Asia has exceeded 200,000, and it is still growing!
If this is really sick, then General Wavell doesn't have to think about countering the rebellion, he will go home early, and the British Empire will give up Southeast Asia.
The real reason is very cruel. The British officers and soldiers collectively resisted the training plan formulated by Wavell, so they fell ill one after another at the beginning of the training.
The law does not blame the public, and it is also applicable here. Wavell cannot use military law against so many people, even killing chickens to make an example of monkeys. If one is not good, these veteran soldiers will mutiny.
Threats and lures have no effect at all. It reflects that people want to go home a long time ago. If illness can make them mention retirement, maybe there are more people who are sick now.
If it weren't for the compulsory military service system, the London government would have been unable to send out troops. You must know that this is the rainforest of Southeast Asia, and the casualty rate of fighting here is quite high!
Don't expect to be safe by surrendering. After entering the jungle, at least they must be able to withstand dysentery, otherwise they will die or die. It is impossible for the rebels to provide them with effective medical assistance.
If the colonial rebellion in Southeast Asia did not involve too many political factors, the current losses would be enough for the London government to abandon the colony.
As a master trainer, General Wavell was too weak to go out when he encountered a group of soldiers who resisted the training!
No way, who let it be the rainy season? It rains almost every day in Southeast Asia, and the British Army has never had a tradition of training in the rain.
If they come once in a while, they can still persist, just to publicize how hard they train to the outside world, but training in the rain every day is beyond their ability to bear.
You must know that as soon as Wavell's training began, many British officers and soldiers could not hold on and collapsed. Among them, the unlucky ones were infected with dysentery after falling ill, and the last one was woohoo.
After the death of a few unlucky ones, the British army was blown up. No matter what orders the commander gave, they were passive and sabotage, which meant non-violent non-cooperation.
General Wavell did not dare to use strong means, and he didn't want to be shot in the back.
In the end, we could only reach a compromise with the soldiers. Everyone will have a holiday on rainy days, and normal training will resume on sunny days. God knows how many sunny days there will be in the rainy season in Southeast Asia!
Once the rainy season is over, they will have to launch a counterattack. The politicians in London can't care about their difficulties, and the domestic political pressure can't help the war to be dragged on.
