Chapter 1077
“If it’s not the Russian bear, then who is it?”
“Could it be the Celestial Empire?”
Mainz shook his head:
“Although the Celestial Empire is at loggerheads with the Foot Basin, their strength is relatively weak after all. It is already quite good that they have tied down a part of the Foot Basin’s forces. It is impossible to expect them to continue to exert more pressure on the Foot Basin, so the Celestial Empire cannot be counted on!”
“Well, then the only one left is the British Empire!”
After ruling out these two options, there is only one option left.
Australia is a colony of the British Empire, and the British Empire naturally cares the most about the attack by the Foot Basin here.
However, as the head of Mainz said before, the current strength of the British Empire is obviously not enough to support their revenge on the Foot Basin, so how can they count on the British Empire?
“Although the strength of the British Empire has weakened, they still have the strength to fight back. However, this requires a prerequisite, which is that their west will not continue to be threatened by the empire!”
……
Less than a week after the Foot Basin sneak attack on Australia, the whole country of the Sun Never Sets was furious about this incident.
There have been several large-scale demonstrations on the streets of the New Fog City. People are very dissatisfied with the government’s practice of not taking any action against the Foot Basin sneak attack on Australia, so they gathered together to put pressure on the Sun Never Sets government in this way!
Although they fled from their homeland to South Asia, the people of the Sun Never Sets have not yet fully realized the transformation of their status as the world’s number one superpower.
After all, a few years ago, they were still the world’s number one superpower, with territories all over the world, a country where the real sun never sets!
At that time, the Foot Basin was just a third-rate country in their eyes. Like many other countries, the Foot Basin was also eagerly waiting for their assistance, hoping that the Sun Never Sets could support and help them!
At that time, when did the people of the Sun Never Sets look at the Foot Basin people?
However, who would have thought that in just a few years, the Foot Basin, which was once looked down upon by the Sun Never Sets people, suddenly became equal to them and even began to bully them!
This sharp contrast between ideal and reality makes the British people extremely uncomfortable!
The news that they failed successively on the European battlefield, were defeated by the German army and then retreated to South Asia was already unacceptable to many people. Compared with being defeated by the German army, the fact that they were treacherously attacked by the Foot Basin people was obviously more difficult to accept!
The Third Reich was powerful, and they were powerless and could only accept the reality helplessly, but who were the Foot Basin people?
How dare they bully them!
So they couldn’t tolerate what the Foot Basin people did!
Many British people even thought that if they didn’t take severe measures to punish the Foot Basin this time, the British government would lose the respect of other countries in the world!
The people’s demonstrations were definitely not the news they wanted to hear for the British government!
However, they had a hard time speaking about this matter. They also wanted to retaliate against the Foot Basin, but what could they use to retaliate?
Although it is not known how the Foot Basin people restored the strength of the navy so quickly, the Sun Never Sets really cannot put together a fleet that can sail far, and without the fleet escort, they cannot support Australia.
What’s more, there are hundreds of thousands of troops of the Third Reich staring covetously to their west. During this period of time, Rommel and his North African Corps just went south to take away the South Philippines where the Sun Never Sets!
No one knows what their next target is, other parts of Africa, or continue to target the Sun Never Sets and march towards Central Asia?
No one can answer this question, after all, everyone is not the roundworm in Rommel’s stomach.
Therefore, the Sun Never Sets can only be forced to strengthen the troops in the border areas and closely monitor the German army’s every move to avoid being attacked by the German army!
On the one hand, they have to guard against the German attack, and on the other hand, they have to set aside a part of the army to maintain domestic security. The Sun Never Sets is really powerless. They can’t launch an action to retaliate against the Foot Basin, so they can only watch the Foot Basin capture cities in Australia but can’t do anything!
When thinking of this kind of thing, the high-level officials of the government of the Sun Never Sets were actually very upset!
However, there is no way for God to enlighten people!
Just when the Sun Never Sets was in a dilemma and didn’t know how to make a decision, the German troops in the west withdrew!
The German troops sent by Rommel to Central Asia suddenly withdrew to North Africa within a few days. The German troops in Central Asia disappeared completely, and the threat to the west of the Sun Never Sets was temporarily eliminated!
This news surprised and delighted the high-level officials of the Sun Never Sets!
Since the German army established the North African Corps, the German troops in Central Asia have been hanging over their heads like a Dasmokli sword, threatening them at all times!
At this time, the sword that posed a huge threat to them finally disappeared, and of course they were very happy.
However, there must be something wrong with the abnormality!
Why did the German army suddenly withdraw its troops at this time? What kind of deep meaning is behind this action?
What exactly is the German army going to do?
Is it going to show the enemy weakness, and then launch a surprise attack when the Sun Never Sets’ vigilance decreases?
Or is it preparing to shrink its forces and prepare for the next large-scale offensive in advance?
With many questions, the British Empire held three consecutive meetings, but still couldn’t figure out what was going on!
At this time, a spy hidden in the Third Reich sent back a piece of gossip that was said to be circulated among the top leaders of the Third Reich: the German army is likely to declare war on the Russians after the beginning of next spring!
This news came too timely!
After seeing this news, the British Empire immediately understood what the German withdrawal meant!
The reason they withdrew their troops was because they wanted to concentrate their forces to launch a war against the Russians! The
Russians are not a small country. It is a big country with a population of more than 100 million and tens of millions of square kilometers of land. To attack such a big country, it naturally requires a large number of troops, so the German army chose to shrink its forces and prepare for the next war, which makes sense!
“We can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The German army has withdrawn from Central Asia, which means that before the German army and the Russian bear decide the outcome, our border is at least safe!”
“Yes, now that the border is secure, we can withdraw the troops stationed in the border areas!”
