“Hans’ industrial and military strength is relatively strong, so if the British Empire and Gaul join the war, then the two sides are very likely to form a stalemate like in World War I. At that time, no one can eat anyone, and the war will continue to stalemate unless there is help from external forces!”
Eisenhower gave his own judgment on the situation in Europe based on the experience of World War I.
On paper, the strength of the British Empire and Hans is almost the same.
However, the main strength of the British Empire is the navy, and the war takes place on land, so their strength is discounted.
As for Gaul, this country performed well during World War I. At least they dared to fight Hans to the end, and such bloodiness is worthy of admiration!
However, it was precisely because of the excessive bloodshed during World War I that Gaul has not recovered from the First World War until now, so Eisenhower was very skeptical. If they encountered Hans’s all-out attack again this time, could the Gauls really stop it?
“For example, us?”
President Harding was very excited when he heard what Eisenhower said.
According to the other party, the situation is almost exactly the same as that during World War I!
The British Empire, Gaul and Hans were in a stalemate, and the strength of both sides was constantly consumed in the long war.
The Eagle Sauce in North America can perfectly avoid the war due to its geographical location, and then use the war to destroy the production of European factories, increase exports to Europe, and completely solve the situation of overproduction and economic crisis facing the country!
When the opponent is almost done, you can go down and reap a wave. This is a win-win situation. The Eagle Sauce won twice!
“That’s right, we are the only ones who have the power to intervene in Europe and clean up the mess!”
MacArthur said arrogantly, and by the way, he flattered his own president!
“At that time, as long as the President gives an order, our army will immediately go out to Europe to clean up the mess and win glory for the country!”
President Harding nodded with satisfaction. The army was still to his liking. Their loyalty to him was much more reliable than that of the navy!
Eisenhower secretly glanced at MacArthur and President Harding.
Just now he almost blurted out that in addition to the Eagle Sauce, there was obviously another country in Europe that could clean up the mess, and that country was the Russian Bear!
However, seeing how excited the two were, he held back the words in his heart and did not say them out loud.
Eisenhower had a high EQ. He knew that if he said such words at this time, not only would it not have any effect, but it would also cause disgust between the two and even have the opposite effect!
I hope that my former motherland can win this war!
Eisenhower, who was born into a German immigrant family, prayed silently in his heart.
……
In the Far East, in Dongjing City, the capital of Jiaoben, the whole city is decorated with lights and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere! It was completely different from the death of Taisho Tianhuang half a year ago. At that time, Jiaoben had just experienced a national mourning, and the war situation in the Celestial Empire was also quite unfavorable, resulting in a heavy atmosphere everywhere in their country.
But at this time, the situation is completely different!
In October, after more than a year of fierce fighting, the army finally conquered Fengtian, the old nest of the Northeast Army!
Continuously advancing to the northeast of the Celestial Empire, Jiaoben’s military strength in the Celestial Empire has exceeded 1.5 million!
Although their industry is not superior to that of European countries and other powers in the world, it still has a crushing advantage over the Celestial Empire, an agricultural country!
These 1.5 million troops in Jiaoben have been trained in the country, fully armed, and rushed to the battlefield with murderous intent to participate in the battle.
On the other hand, the Northeast Army had expanded its military strength to 1 million at this time, but the population of the Northeast was only 20 million after all. In the late Qing Dynasty, the people in the interior began to migrate to the outside of the Great Wall, setting off a wave of crossing the Great Wall, but this movement did not last long, and it has only been a few decades now!
The population of the Northeast is nothing compared to that of later generations. The huge Northeast has only 20 million people, and most of them are concentrated in Fengtian and nearby areas.
After the outbreak of the war last year, a large number of new immigrants were affected by the war and fled with their families, fled outside the Great Wall, and returned to the interior.
This caused the population outside the Great Wall to decline further, and it is hard to say whether there are still 20 million people at this time!
A small population means that they can recruit fewer troops, and the carrying capacity of agricultural society is much lower than that of industrial countries. An industrial country can almost recruit all young men between the ages of 20 and 40 in the country, and the country can still operate.
However, in an agricultural country, as long as 5% of the population is recruited, that is, one soldier is recruited out of 20 people, the country will collapse!
It is precisely because of such restrictions that the Northeast Army can only recruit 1 million people. Although there are nearly 100,000 young and middle-aged people in the Northeast, they can no longer recruit these young and middle-aged people.
If these people are recruited, the labor force in the Northeast will be seriously insufficient, and the fields will be destroyed due to lack of cultivation, resulting in large-scale famine!
Moreover, the main industries of the Northeast Army are near Fengtian, which has been fighting for more than a year and has long been destroyed. The military purchases in Europe could not be maintained due to the lack of themselves, and their weapons and equipment finally had a gap.
As Hans and Mao Xiong’s energy was attracted by the war in Europe, the aid received by the Celestial Empire from the outside world dropped significantly.
In this case, it would be useless for them to recruit more people to join the army, because they simply did not have so many weapons!
Therefore, after the fall of Fengtian City, the Northeast Army quickly fell into a state of defeat. The
Northeast Army, which had been able to fight with the Japanese army on the battlefield for a year before, seemed to be unable to fight overnight, and was chased around by the Japanese army on the battlefield!
This situation made everyone feel relieved!
To be honest, if the war lasted another year, I’m afraid they would completely lose confidence and would not continue to attack! Fortunately
, the war broke out in Europe, which cut off the aid to the Northeast Army. After losing the aid, they really couldn’t hold on, and they were defeated by the Japanese army!
So for the war in Europe, everyone was extremely excited and excited. After tasting the sweetness, they wished that the war there would be more intense, and it would be best if no one had the energy to take care of them!
In this way, they can be domineering in the Far East!
……
For the Celestial Empire, 1927 was definitely the most difficult year!
Not only did the Northeast Army fall into an unfavorable situation on the battlefield, but even the melee among the warlords in the interior of the country became more intense.
In this situation, the revolutionary government in Yuecheng felt that the situation was unfavorable. If the country continued to be in such chaos, it would probably only benefit the people in the basin in vain, allowing them to seize the opportunity of the Celestial Empire being in disarray and unable to resist, and take advantage of the opportunity to swallow up the entire Celestial Empire!
Therefore, in order to save the fate of the Celestial Empire and save the hundreds of millions of people in this country!
The revolutionary government in Yuecheng held a swearing-in meeting and formally swore to the Northern Expedition!
Because of the butterfly effect, this war was postponed for one year compared to history.
However, for this reason, the revolutionary government was much stronger than in history during the Northern Expedition!
After they swore to go to war, they quickly invaded southern Hunan Province, western Jiangxi Province, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, and fought fierce battles with warlords such as Wu Peifu and Sun Chuanfang who were entrenched here!
For a time, the Chinese Empire, from the northeast to the southeast, along the long 5,000-kilometer border, was ignited everywhere!
