Germanic Empire: please call me William III
Chapter 206
Thanks to the book friends Ronin and X for the tip!
“Damn the Ottomans dared to join the Allied powers, it was like making enemies of us!” We must not let them go! The sun never set on winston, the new admiral of the Empire, with a look of anger on his face.
The former Secretary of the Navy, Sir John Fisher, was responsible for shipbuilding, and the post of Secretary of the Navy was also taken care of by Winston.
The order to detain the two Ottoman battleships was given by Winston.
Of course, he had informed Prime Minister Asquith before the action, and had received the approval of His Excellency the Prime Minister.
However, what they did not expect was that the weak Ottomans did not choose to swallow their anger, but directly joined the Allied group and declared war on them. This is undoubtedly an extremely heavy blow to them.
Of course, given the current strength of the Ottoman Empire, it could not pose a threat to the Empire where the sun never set. However, this posed a great threat to the Tsarist Empire! More importantly, an important sea route on which the Russian Empire depended was thus cut off.
“After the Ottoman Empire joined the Allied Powers, the situation of the Russian Empire would be even more difficult. The reason why they needed to draw hundreds of thousands or more troops to defend the Ottomans. More importantly, once the Dardanelles were cut off by the Ottomans, it was difficult for the Russian Empire to get supplies! The Secretary of State of the Army, Count Kitchinner, had a serious expression.
They hoped that the Tsarist Empire would launch a large-scale offensive on the Eastern Front after the arrival of spring, in order to weaken the forces that contained a large number of the Germanic Empire and reduce their pressure on the Western Front.
Although the Tsarist Empire had a large population and a huge military source, it could mobilize a huge number of troops.
However, with the industrial strength of the Russian Empire, it was not possible to quickly arm these mobilized armies.
If it is not possible to supply the Tsarist Empire with a large amount of weapons, equipment and other materials, the war potential of the Tsarist Empire will be greatly weakened. The role that the Tsarist Empire could play in this war would be greatly reduced.
This, in turn, will have a great impact on the Gaul State and the Empire of the Rising Sun, and will allow them to bear more and greater pressure in the war.
The North Atlantic route had limited capacity and was often attacked by Germanic fleets and submarines. In addition, in the winter, icebergs are dense, which seriously affects traffic. The materials transported to the Far East could not be transported to the Eastern European Plain in time because of the limited capacity of the Trans-Siberian Railway. This greatly affected the mobilization progress of the Tsarist Empire. If this problem is not solved, it will have a great adverse impact on us. We may need to send troops to attack the Ottoman Empire and open the Dardanelles. Even, forcing the Ottoman Empire to withdraw from the war! Count Kitchener continued.
“Sizzle!”
Count Kitchener’s proposal made the ministers take a breath of cool air.
The Imperial Expeditionary Force was moving away from reinforcing the Gaulish State to assist the Gaulles against the Attack of the Germanic Empire. If you want to draw troops to launch an attack on the Ottoman Empire. Then they must mobilize more troops.
“Gentlemen, we can act together with the Gauls. The Gauls also hoped that the Russian Empire would play a greater role. After opening the strait, it is very beneficial for us! Count Kitchener continued.
“Let’s make a plan for the War Department.” When necessary, we can launch an attack on the Ottoman Empire! Prime Minister Asquith finally made a decision.
Of course, whether this attack on the Ottoman Empire was necessary or not, we must also see the development of the war situation at that time.
If they resist the attack of the Germanic Empire next year, the Tsarist Empire will also launch a large-scale offensive on the eastern front as scheduled, containing a large number of Germanic empires. Maybe it’s not necessary.
If the war did not go well and the Tsarist Empire needed to erupt into greater combat power, it would be imperative to launch an attack on the Ottoman Empire and open up the Dardanelles.
“Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Your Excellency, Ministers. Although, the Kingdom of Caesar joined us. However, the Ottoman Empire joined the Allies. This almost offsets the growth in strength on both sides. Given the germanic power, we desperately needed more allies. In this way, our chances of winning will be greater! Foreign Secretary Edward Gray said.
“What do you suggest?” Prime Minister Asquith asked.
“Your Excellency, in Europe, the kingdom of Sibaya is also fairly strong, and it would be better if they could join us in declaring war on the Germanic and Austro-Hungarian empires. The Eastern Empire in the Far East was also a great power. If you can join us, it can also play a great role in promoting. Edward Gray said.
“Even if the Sibanya people join us, they can really help us.” But, the Orientals, they were too far away from the European battlefield. Prime Minister Asquith shook his head repeatedly.
“Your Excellency, Prime Minister, the fighting power of the Toyo people is still very strong. Their defeat of the Russian Empire proved this in the first place. If they could send expeditionary forces to fight in Europe, they would undoubtedly be of great help to us. Besides, the naval strength of the Eastern Empire was not weak. If they could send an expeditionary fleet to fight in Europe. Then our odds are even greater! Edward Gray continued.
“Well, you can represent the Empire in wooing the Sibanians and the Orientals. If they are willing to join us, it is naturally the best. If we want to defeat the evil Germans, we need more allies! Prime Minister Asquis said.
“Your Excellency, Prime Minister, compared to the Kingdom of Sibaya and the Empire of the East, the Lighthouse Nation is the one we need to really woo. If the Lighthouse Nation joins our side, our advantage will be even greater. The lighthouse nation’s huge population and strong industrial strength will directly help us crush the Germans! Chancellor of the Exchequer George said.
“The lighthouse nation is too cunning, they refuse to take a stand, in the name of neutrality, and make a windfall of war!” Prime Minister Asquith bit down.
“No matter what, we have to keep trying.” Lloyd George said.
Prime Minister Asquith nodded, “Your Excellency, As Minister for Foreign Affairs, as an Imperial envoy, secretly visit the Lighthouse Nation. Convince the lighthouse nations as much as possible to join us! ”
“Yes, Your Excellency, Prime Minister!” Edward Gray replied.
