the world is at stake

After all, the current power of China is much stronger than that of the Boers in South Africa.Countries such as the United States and Germany may give support from behind, at least that idiot Bazel will definitely.

Once the war is lost, Prime Minister Cameron will have to step down.

While talking about Bazel's possible reaction to the conflict, the attendant knocked on the door of the reception room, came in with a strange face and said, "Your Majesty, Kaiser Bazel I has sent you a telegram."

Charles I sat on the sofa and snorted, "What did that bastard say?"

Uh... the attendant hesitated for a while, and whispered: "Actually, he just sent a word."

"What word?"

"It's just 'Hahahahahahahahaha...!'"

The aide's face was bitter, and after reading out a string of 'hahaha' on the telegram, he explained: "Sorry, Your Majesty. I know this telegram is too boring. But considering that the other party is the Kaiser, and the recipient is you. So... ..."

Listening to Cameron complaining for a long time, Charles I looked calm.But after being ridiculed by Bazel I's 'hahaha', he flew into a rage and said, "I don't need to let me know about such meaningless telegrams in the future."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The attendant nodded and exited after encountering an indiscriminate disaster.

Prime Minister Cameron was also annoyed and laughed at Bazel I's childishness. He talked about the possible consequences of being tough on China, and he also talked about another possibility-find a blamer, and let others rest in peace.

"China has many demands, such as the abolition of all unequal treaties, the dismantling of concessions, the complete departure of foreign troops and financial institutions from China, and the acceptance of all foreign-funded companies under Chinese supervision.

The meaning of 'Holy Light' is very simple. If we don't agree, they will break off diplomatic relations directly and will rely on their own military power to implement their own policies.And we can't stop it. "

Cameron waved his hands helplessly, "Your Majesty, I need your support, otherwise my cabinet is facing a crisis of collapse. Our people failed to control the majority of the parliament, and the opposition party may use this to oust me."

This is the real purpose of the Prime Minister coming to Buckingham Palace.The number of British electors was large, but together they failed to control the regime.

The reason sounds ridiculous.

Because there are many Indians, Africans and Muslims in the "low-key club", these people have low status after the restart of time and space, and cannot be on the stage.

In 1910, if there was a dark-skinned Muslim third elder brother wearing a turban in the British Parliament, the British people would go crazy and simply overthrow Charles I.

The same problem occurs within the 'fraternity', which has nearly half of its black and Hispanic electorates.This group of people has no way of entering the political and academic circles, and it is even difficult for them to become soldiers.

It is impossible for Marcos to install a black minister in his cabinet, such as handing over the Pentagon to the control of gay niggers-if he really wants to do this, the white American soldiers can burn the White House overnight again without Texas "rednecks".

Even the French electorate has the same problem, and there are many North African Muslims among them.

These people of color found that the restart of time and space was of no benefit to them. The white people blatantly discriminated against them.

The world before World War I was a cruel jungle era, where the weak preyed on the strong.Racial discrimination cannot be solved by engaging in 'Black Lives Matter'. It has affected the internal unity of the candidates such as the United Kingdom, the United States and France.

Because he cannot fully control the government, Prime Minister Cameron urgently needs Charles I to play his prestige as head of state to back him up.Otherwise there is a real possibility that he will step down - and that another British elector will replace him.

Just when the Prime Minister was talking about the difficulties he was facing, the aide came in with another telegram, and said sorry with the same weird face, "Your Majesty, President Marcos of the United States also sent you a telegram."

"What does that kid want? Are you here to mock me too?" Charles I shouted angrily.

"That's not true." The aide looked down at the telegram, "President Marcus first asked about your health, and then expressed his willingness to mediate the conflict between China and Britain. He said that the United States hopes to maintain peace in East Asia."

Ha...Charles I was very angry, "The Americans are now a nouveau riche, with money and industry, but they have no military power and international status. Even the French can mock them.

Marcos wants to use this to influence international politics?Has he gotten smarter?Or is someone pointing out behind the scenes?But Britain would rather find Tsarist Russia than the United States to intervene. "

The telegram was directly replied to Washington, and Marcos glanced at the British refusal in the White House, and sighed to a nearly hundred-year-old man in the office: "Your Excellency Kissinger, the British do not accept our ideas."

"Of course I don't accept it. Great Britain was dismantled by the United States. I was just doing a test to see if the British are not too stupid."

The old man spoke very slowly: "Your Excellency, in fact, you shouldn't have asked me to be your political adviser. The ideas I can think of are not brilliant, and they are unlikely to be accepted by the 'Brotherhood'. "

"No way, before the restart of time and space, there is no pragmatic and credible politician in Washington. I can only find you." Marco continued with a sullen face: "Do you still insist on China and the United States joining forces to destroy Great Britain first?"

"No, no, no, it's not joining forces, it's using, it's using." The octogenarian waved his hands vigorously, "Don't let China rise again, it is more terrifying than Great Britain.

There are not too many variables and unknowns in the current international political chess game, and everyone is clear.But because of this, it is more dangerous.We can't make a single step wrong. "

Chapter 34

The old and obese Kissinger sat on the sofa in the Oval Office, his dim eyes moved slowly, and his palms rubbed on the leather for a while, feeling the changes of more than 100 years.

Kissinger is familiar with this office representing power, and he has talked here countless times; he is familiar with the entire White House and understands all the processes of political operations; he is also familiar with the United States, and has witnessed it becoming the winner of the Cold War.

But now it's a little different.

"Your Excellency, let me give you some different advice." Kissinger moved his old body on the sofa, "What the United States needs is checks and balances, and we cannot let a superpower appear on the world island.

Now that Britain is a superpower, we must support France, Germany and Russia to oppose it.In particular, Tsarist Russia is used to play its deterrent role and act as a European steamroller. "

"Support Russia?"

"No, support Tsarist Russia."

"Does it make a difference?"

"There's a big difference. Don't let Tsarist Russia collapse, don't let the Bolsheviks control Russia. It will be our best friend."

Ma Keshi seemed to understand something, "Your Excellency, what do you mean... ideology?"

"Yes, our real enemy is communism. As long as the Russians don't believe in communism, it is a gnawing but extremely stupid bear.

If Tsarist Russia is strong, its greedy nature will stare at every country in Eurasia for us.So those countries need friends, they need America. "

"And what about China? The 'Holy Light' team is clearly communist."

"Ah... This is a problem that I also feel helpless. It's a pity that the current United States is not capable of conducting transoceanic operations, otherwise I must suggest that you dismember this country immediately."

Kissinger sighed and shook his head, "When I visited China as Nixon's special envoy, I never thought that it would become the great enemy of the United States within half a century.

What we can do is to rebuild the first island chain and support Japan to fight against it.This work has to be done quickly, because the situation in Japan is very bad now.

It would be great if the United States could provide food, steel, and gasoline in exchange for Japan sending troops to China now.It's a pity that the current US government has limited powers. "

Charles I had problems, and so did President Marcus.America is strong, but the US government is weak. The 'fraternity' can't control America either.

Before the economic crisis in 1929, the American consortium had the power to suppress the government and was absolutely wary of the military.After World War I, the consortium was the most active in dismantling the US military.

As for before World War I, the U.S. Army was a bunch of poor people.The navy has just completed the "Great White Fleet" voyage around the world, and the sixteen former dreadnoughts are all retired turtle-speed "Iron King Eight" that have been eliminated from service.

"Your Excellency, don't be too frustrated." Kissinger finally waved his hand, "We now have an advantage that no other country can match, that is, our industrial capacity is overwhelmingly strong.

As long as you place an order with those consortiums, you can see a brand new fleet of more than a dozen aircraft carriers and cruisers within five years.So let's be patient for a while.

The small air superiority of the Chinese will be wiped out within half a month.The British will not give up their interests in East Asia so easily, and will definitely continue to fight.

We only need to support Tsarist Russia to suppress Europe, use China to fight Britain, and support Japan and South Korea to suppress China.America doesn't need to ally with anyone, but it can be anyone's friend. "

After the nearly hundred-year-old man finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hands in a joking tone and said confidently: "We are now the party that masters the advanced productivity."

Ma Keshi smiled unconsciously, and his mind became much clearer.Kissinger's proposal clarified the domestic and foreign policy.He grabbed the phone on the desk and called the Secretary of State, saying he wanted to talk about the current situation in East Asia.

When Nanjing's aerial anti-ship operations shocked the world, the battle was not over.

The performance of the big red triplanes during the day greatly boosted the morale of the National Defense Forces. When they returned to the airport at night for maintenance, they ordered the troops to cross the river quickly before dark in Yangzhou, where the commanding army's third division was full of seats.

More than 200 motor sailboats, small steamers, and water transport ships set out in unison.A group of [-] or [-] ships, under the cover of shore artillery, rushed to Zhenjiang on the south bank to seize the ferry terminal.

Due to the limited loading and unloading speed at the wharf, there was only one battalion to cross the river first, equipped with four trucks loaded with 'Maximum', aggressive and ready for a big battle.

But the British and Japanese warships that blocked the Yangtze River were all paralyzed, either sunk or stranded.Zhenjiang didn't make any resistance either. Instead, the city residents ran out to welcome them.

There are only a handful of armies in the world that can welcome the common people out, and they usually either disperse in a rush or flee for their lives.

Araki from Xuanyangsha failed to go to Nanjing. On the way, he met his companion who escaped from Nanjing, saying that the British warship was damaged and paralyzed at the Xiaguan pier.He had no choice but to turn around and go back to Zhenjiang, but encountered the National Defense Forces crossing the river.

Several Japanese spies took inventory near the Zhenjiang ferry terminal. Before the military police took control of the whole city, they saw at least eight battalions disembarking, basically one batch every hour, and there were about two regiments.

Before dawn, the National Defense Forces sent reconnaissance troops to Nanjing.The speed of the truck was brought into full play, far faster than human horses.

Taking Zhenjiang, the "Shanghai-Nanjing Railway" from Nanjing to Shanghai was immediately cut off.

Ancient armies relied on waterways for marching and fighting, while modern armies rely heavily on railways.Zhang Xun's patrol battalion and Lieutenant Colonel Wei Lepei's overseas volunteer team were immediately trapped in Nanjing and were cut off from the outside world.

At the moment in Nanjing, Zhang Xun was standing on the shore of the Xiaguan Wharf, looking at the hull of the "Adventure" sloping like a hill, jumping straight.

"How did this happen? Didn't it mean that the National Defense Forces were afraid to do anything? What did the British government say? Your warship was bombed, so you can't just ignore it."

What can we do with Great Britain being [-] kilometers away?

Most of the officers and men on the 'Adventure' transferred to shore were injured.The body of Colonel Culler was found, he had been blown away by the impact of the cylinder bomb and fell to the bank to die.

American missionaries from Jinling University hurried to the pier and called a group of western doctors and nurses in Nanjing to give first aid.But Nanjing is neither Shanghai nor the imperial capital, and the medical conditions are insufficient. Many wounded are wailing at the ambulance near the pier.

At present, the powers in China do not have high-power radio stations. Lieutenant Colonel Wei Lepei does not know at this moment that the other four British destroyers and the Japanese squadron have also suffered disasters, but he knows that the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

"We have lost water support, so we can only rely on ourselves. Prepare to fight, the Chinese National Defense Forces should be crossing the river at this moment." Lieutenant Colonel Wei Lepei turned his head, "Your Excellency Nakamura, now we can only rely on you to retake Zhenjiang."

Nakamura was the Japanese commander of the overseas volunteer team, and he commanded more than 3000 Japanese ronin waves recruited from Shanghai.This guy was short and stocky, with a Rendan beard, thick and strong, with a fierce face.

Listening to the translation, Nakamura hummed heavily and said, "I want the full command of the overseas Chinese volunteer team and the patrol battalion."

Lieutenant Colonel Wei Lepei didn't care, anyway, the volunteer team he organized included Japanese and Indians, a small number of Chinese, and penniless European hooligans who came to Shanghai for a gold panning adventure.

On the contrary, Zhang Xun was very unhappy. The Five Thousand Patrol Battalion was his old base.Once handed over, he will become a puppet.But now the situation is stronger than others, so he can't help but bow his head.

At the time of the imperial capital, on the night of the 26th, Nakamura established a supervising team and forcibly incorporated Zhang Xun's troops into his team.After shooting more than 200 deserters, the formation was completed.

In the early morning of the next day, Nakamura escorted the team to Zhenjiang along the railway line.He collided with the advance team of the National Defense Forces commanded by Wang Xin on the way, and the two sides confronted each other in the area of ​​Baohua Mountain.

Nakamura set up a headquarters on the railway line, and then called the officers under him to scold them one by one.He not only scolded, but also slapped, and finally gave the combat order.

Zhang Xun and Wei Lepei didn't intervene in the command, and watched Nakamura the whole time. After all, these Japanese are the main force of the army now.When Nakamura slapped his hands, Zhang Xun couldn't help asking the interpreter, "What the hell is this little devil doing?"

The interpreter made a bitter face, bent down and said, "Master, I can't understand what these Orientals are saying either. It's probably some words like 'seven bodies serving the country' and 'Nogi Xidian'.

It seems to be talking about some famous military god in Japan, and what kind of "pig sudden" should all Japanese soldiers do.Specifically, I did not understand.That's probably what it means. "

Pig sudden?

Zhang Xun was startled.

This word is no stranger!

During the Russo-Japanese War, Little Japan engaged in a "pig attack" in Lushun, and was swept away by Russian Maozi's heavy machine guns.The whole world knows it, laughs at the stupidity of the Japanese, and is dumbfounded at the barbarity of the Japanese.

"This little devil doesn't treat people as human beings. Return my troops quickly." Zhang Xun was in a hurry. He had to know that Nakamura was playing "pig sudden" so that he would not hand over the troops to the other party's command.

It's a pity that this person is easy to give away, but difficult to take back.

Zhang Xun went to Nakamura to ask for troops, but the Japanese dwarf didn't answer at all.The other party chattered a lot, and ordered the supervisory team to keep an eye on Zhang Xun and not allow him to run around.

"What did this little devil say? What did he say?" Zhang Xun grabbed the interpreter and shook desperately, "Let him return my army back, I'd rather power up and go to the wild than play with him."

The interpreter was dizzy from being shaken, and said with an ugly face: "Master, this Japanese said that you don't have the spirit of samurai and that you are not worthy of being a soldier. He said that if he were you, he would rather cut seppuku."

Zhang Xun stomped his feet angrily, "I'm not Japanese, what do you want Bushido? Why do you want to cut your belly? My [-] patrol battalion, this is the capital of my life, I can't let the little devil make trouble."

It would be too late to say anything, the [-] Patrol Battalion was forced forward by the little devil, and moved towards Zhenjiang along the track of the "Shanghai-Nanjing Railway".

Wang Xin acted quickly last night, using trucks to transport troops to grab the commanding heights of Baohua Mountain, where the command post is located.He was a company commander in the past, and it was the first time he commanded such a big battle. Although he had taken a bunch of courses for mid-level officers, he still didn't know what to do.

Not only did Wang Xin have no bottom, but the crowd behind him also had no bottom.The modern army is completely different from the modern army, and it cannot be applied in many situations-for example, it is impossible to let people eat nuclear bombs when they go out.

The Third Division of the Army is considered to be well-equipped in China, but the heavy weapons are a dozen mountain cannons and field cannons, plus dozens of 'Maxim' heavy machine guns.Chief Soldier is still holding the 'old sleeve' in his hand.

This firepower projection distance is less than five kilometers.

Wang Xin was still thinking about tactics such as 'infantry coordination', 'roundabout', 'central breakthrough' and so on.But the triplane was flying in the sky, and the news was that the opponent was coming along the railway line in a daze.

"What do you mean? No artillery cover? Do you think my machine gun has too many bullets?"

Chapter 35 Really 'pig sudden'? !

The clanging steam locomotive stopped on the railway line, and Captain Yamamoto, wearing an old military uniform, jumped off the front of the locomotive, quickly climbed up a small hill near the track, and grasped the binoculars to observe the surrounding situation.

A team of Japanese artillerymen uncovered the gun cover on the train, revealing six Japanese-made 150-type [-]mm caliber heavy howitzers fixed on the carriage.Its great power can be felt from the muzzle of the black hole.

This large-caliber short-barrel heavy gun was designed by the Japanese a few years ago. It uses the latest technologies such as hydraulic anti-recoil, and its performance is quite satisfactory.

It weighs more than two tons and needs eight heavy-duty horses to tow it. The disadvantage is that its mobility is not very good.But in East Asia, Japan is so largely unopposed that it 'will' be used in WWII.

The current batch of artillery was originally intended to be sold to the National Defense Forces by Japanese companies.After the British paid, the Japanese military was very happy to sell it at a high price.

The '[-]' artillery was originally transported from Shanghai to Nanjing by train, and before it could be loaded and unloaded, it turned around and prepared to bombard the National Defense Forces that recaptured Zhenjiang.On the contrary, it solved its mobility problem and played a cameo role as a train gun.

The accompanying Japanese artillerymen were not ronin wandering in Shanghai, but came from mainland Japan on a fast destroyer.Captain Yamamoto, who led the team, was very excited and wanted to repeat the shelling battle at Lushun 203 Heights.

According to the thinking of the young and strong faction of the Japanese military, if they can create warlord melee in the Shanghai area, at least they can sell more high-priced arms, and if they are lucky, they can grab a piece of land.

What kind of equipment the National Defense Force has, the Japanese army is very clear.A bunch of 75mm Krupp crap, nothing good about range, power, or accuracy other than being lightweight.

Captain Yamamoto is very confident that the violent soldiers will have a taste of the power of Japan.His artillery not only has a large caliber, but can also maneuver on the rails, covering the troops to attack and move forward.

In contrast, the disadvantage of horse-towed artillery is that it cannot keep up with the speed of infantry.This is also the reason why countries in World War I generally equipped train guns, and they were gradually eliminated after the tracked chassis matured in World War II.

In addition to the Japanese-made artillery, there are several 76mm British-made naval guns on the train.It was dismantled overnight on the unlucky "Adventure" yesterday.
