: 0.046s Scan: 0.110sA week later, Chukir left the capital of the foot basin exhausted.
The moment he boarded the bow, he looked back at the foot basin city and made up his mind that he would never come here again!
This trip to the East was obviously not a pleasant experience for Chukir.
In order to tie the foot basin people to their warships and let the foot basin people agree to send troops to fight in the Atlantic Ocean.
Both the Sun Never Sets and the Eagle Sauce bleed heavily and gave up some of their interests.
Among them, the Sun Never Sets sold the Windmill Country, and the foot basin got to the Dutch East Assan Islands as it wished, but Chukir did not agree to the Sun Never Sets’ request to send troops to the Strait of Malacca and Siam. These two places involve their core interests, and they are impossible to give in.
However, although the foot basin was prevented from coveting and infiltrating these two places, the Sun Never Sets gave up some of its interests in Australia and other places.
The iron ore in western Australia, which has been coveted by the Foot Basin people for several years, has finally been given a chance by the British this time, promising to allow the Foot Basin people to mine here.
The main core areas of Australia are in the east, and the large areas in the west are desert Gobi. It is uninhabited, with harsh climatic conditions and is not suitable for human habitation. Therefore, the British do not think that opening this place to the Foot Basin people will really threaten their rule in Australia!
If the Foot Basin people want to gain a foothold in Western Australia, it will take at least a dozen years. By then, the Second World War will definitely be over. Once the war is over, the British will immediately join forces with the Eagle Sauce to deal with the Foot Basin. At that time, the Foot Basin will have no chance to continue to infiltrate Australia and will be beaten to the ground by the two countries!
Do the Foot Basin people think that the British and the Eagle Sauce will really watch them extend their tentacles deep into Southeast Asia without doing anything?
Southeast Asia is not only the forbidden land of the British Empire, but also the private land of the Eagle Sauce people. The reason why the British Empire has been reluctant to annex the Dutch East Assan Islands of the Windmill Kingdom is because it does not want to get too close to the Eagle Sauce, so as not to irritate the Eagle Sauce and cause unnecessary disputes between the two countries.
But the Foot Basin is better. They directly entered here and took away the colonies of the Windmill Kingdom, which broke the balance that was hard to establish between the British Empire and the Eagle Sauce. This behavior may not cause too much reaction from the British Empire and the Eagle Sauce at present. After all, both countries hope to stabilize the Foot Basin and prevent it from joining the Third Reich.
However, once the war is over, when the British Empire and the Eagle Sauce are free, the good days of the Foot Basin people will be over!
But, what if the British Empire and the Eagle Sauce lose this war?
What will be the ending?
Chukir closed his eyes, not daring to think about such serious consequences!
……
At this time, the Eagle Sauce also learned about the expansion of the Foot Basin people in Southeast Asia. Because of the expansionist tendency shown by the Foot Basin people, the Eagle Sauce was very vigilant.
In order to get the Foot Basin to agree to send their fleet to the Atlantic to participate in the war, not only did the British make certain concessions in this negotiation, but the Eagle Sauce people also paid a considerable price!
Allowing the Foot Basin to annex the Dutch East Indies is only one of them. Giving the sovereignty of the Bismarck Islands to the Foot Basin is the second. The most critical point is the third point, giving the control of Midway Island to the Foot Basin!
This point caused a lot of controversy within the Eagle Sauce, because the location of Midway Island is very critical. It is very close to Hawaii, their most important island in the Pacific!
Although the Eagle Sauce refused to open Hawaii to the Foot Basin, they could not keep Midway Island! The
Foot Basin people bit it to death. Either open Hawaii or cede Midway Island. They can only choose one of the two. If they don’t agree to anything, then don’t expect the Foot Basin’s joint fleet to help them!
This request of the Foot Basin people is very excessive. If the Eagle Sauce had not encountered an unprecedented crisis, they would not be able to meet the Foot Basin people’s request!
However, they urgently need the navy of the foot basin people to help them fight for the control of the sea in the Atlantic Ocean. This month, after the German army completed the bombing of Washington, the capital of the Eagle Sauce, they sent a second batch of troops and equipment to the Florida Armed Forces!
The Eagle Sauce Navy discovered the German fleet and tried to intercept the other side, but the German army dispatched two aircraft carriers and eight battleships to escort. The two sides fought fiercely in the Atlantic Ocean. In the end, the Eagle Sauce Navy failed to achieve its goal and could only watch the other side successfully transport the supplies and troops ashore!
Fortunately, in this batch of fleets, the German army mainly transported weapons and equipment and medical supplies, as well as some mechanical equipment urgently needed in Florida and other places. The number of troops they transported was not large, only one army and two armored divisions!
However, any troop landing in the Eagle Sauce from the European mainland will have a great impact on the domestic war situation in the Eagle Sauce. In the long run, the strength of the German army in the Eagle Sauce will grow rapidly, and they will become more difficult to deal with at that time!
Therefore, the Eagles could not accept the German army’s continuous reinforcement of troops. They urgently hoped to cut off the opponent’s sea transportation routes and isolate the German troops that had already landed!
Therefore, at this time, they could only agree to the request of the Foot Basin with a pinch of their noses. After all, things have their priorities. Only after resolving the crisis of life and death can they consider other issues.
Moreover, those islands in the Pacific were occupied by the Eagles during their external expansion decades ago. It would not be a pity to lose them. At worst, they could take them back after their strength was restored. Anyway, in the eyes of the Eagles, there must be a war between them and the Foot Basin!
If they can’t…���If we defeat the Jiaoben people on the battlefield, their ambitions for the Eagle Sauce’s islands in the Pacific will not disappear. This problem can only be solved through war, there is no second way!
“Although it cost us a great deal, we did not gain nothing. At least we determined the time when the reinforcements would appear!”
Roosevelt said slowly. Since the capital was bombed, the morale of the Eagle Sauce has dropped a lot.
Everyone generally feels insecure. After all, the Germans can bomb their capital, so what else can’t they bomb?
When the Germans were in Europe before, because of the distance, the Eagle Sauce people were more or less lucky. They felt that even if the Germans could bomb eastern coastal cities like Gotham, they couldn’t bomb inland cities that were farther away from Europe.
So except for the Eagle Sauce people in the eastern coastal areas who felt nervous, the Eagle Sauce people in other areas did not feel much pressure!
However, this situation changed completely after the Germans landed in the Eagle Sauce!
Although Florida is located in the southeast of the Eagle Sauce, it can be said to be the southernmost state of the Eagle Sauce, but this is the Eagle Sauce homeland after all. With the range of the German bombers, they can threaten more than 90% of the major cities in the Eagle Sauce country from here!
