Vol 6 Chapter 21: , France Vs German + Italian

A genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Time has passed, the New Kingdom of Poland finally lived up to expectations, after a wave of failures, he kneeled decisively.
There is no way, the gap in strength cannot be made up by mouth and gun.
The fiercest gang of people who clamor is often the most persuaded on the battlefield.
A gang of bigwigs appealed to the people to resist desperately, but they ran away. Seeing Ferdinand is speechless, do you want to behave?
What about the literati style?
Even if you can't treat death as home, how come you have to wait for the Germans to fight over and run away?
Do you know that it hurts morale?
The population of the New Kingdom of Poland is only 8 million, and its strength is far less than that of the same period in history. Apart from its ability to cause troubles, it is not comparable.
In less than a month, the new Kingdom of Poland came to an end, and only sporadic guerrillas were left to resist.
Except for a large-scale war that was devastating to the people of the world, nothing was left.
No, there is also a Polish government-in-exile, which has now gone to France to seek asylum.
Poland is over, can France still enjoy peace?
The answer is: no!
Ferdinand did not disappoint. On July 18, 1939, the 38th day after the Polish War ended, the Germans could not wait to declare war on France.
This is not because the Germans were anxious, but the Italians were anxious. They took the initiative to jump up in this war, and the Germans were also dragged into the war.
Otherwise, the Germans might have to prepare for another two or three months to make up for the lack of strategic materials.
These are all small problems. Anyway, there is a British nurse, who is just a little strategic material, and it will be done in minutes.
Mr. Albert Le Brun can rest assured, now that no French people spray him as the president of the main combat faction anymore, the enemy has come to the door, and they can't help but stop!
It is the London government that should be entangled. The British anti-war people are attacking the government, thinking that they are actively creating war.
In a sense, this war was indeed made by the British. Without their support, Germany and Italy would not have the courage to declare war on the French so quickly.
World public opinion is also accusing the British government, and the Bulgarian media even labelled the British as warmongers, and produced actual evidence to prove that the British planned this war.
On this issue, the British media are too lazy to deny that the ship of arms to Europe is the best evidence.
However, Germany and Italy are also allies of the British. According to the agreement, the London government should provide them with more help.
Prime Minister Stanley Wynn Baldwin has a headache. According to the current situation, he, the prime minister of the anti-war faction, is about to get out.
Next year will be another election year. The leaders of the anti-war factions planned a war. The voters felt deceived and wanted to be re-elected. Dreaming!
The national strategy requires that ordinary people do not want to listen to such an explanation. Originally, the external interpretation of the establishment of the Western European Union was to counter the Eastern European Union.
Now that the situation is good, the Eastern European Union is still keeping its own farm, and the two member states of the Western European Union have already started war on the European continent.
Especially the Germans have provoked two wars in a short period of time. France is not so bully as Poland, or the British Empire will be dragged down.
The British people don't want to go to the European continent to fight the French for no reason.
"Prime Minister, we are under too much pressure from public opinion. If we block the French coastline again, the people will not be able to explain it!" Chamberlain frowned and said
Blocking the French coastline is different from directly declaring war. Moreover, this coastline is not so easy to blockade.
At the beginning of the war, the French Navy abandoned the English Channel, the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, and shrank the entire fleet to the Mediterranean.
The Mediterranean fleet of the Royal Navy has not been able to suppress the French Navy, let alone blockade this stretch of coastline.
Transfer the main fleet to the Mediterranean?
Just think about this idea, don't take it seriously!
If there are fewer warships transferred, the French navy cannot be suppressed; if there are too many warships transferred, Bulgaria can't help it.
If the Bulgarian Navy and the French Navy jointly knocked them a sap, it would be too late for the London government to cry.
No one dares to gamble on this kind of thing. Once the Royal Navy's superiority ceases to exist, then the British Empire's position as world hegemony will really not be preserved.
"But on the ally, how do we explain it? You must know that Germany and Italy communicated with us before starting the war. If we can't complete the agreement, I'm afraid there will be trouble later!" The Secretary of State retorted
The national credibility of the British Empire, when it is said to be valuable, is invaluable, and when it is said not, it is really not worth a penny. It depends on whether the benefits are sufficient.
There is no doubt that their credibility is very valuable now, and the British Empire still needs two allies of Germany and Italy.
Supporting the German-Italian attack on France is not to destroy France. The main purpose is to force the French government to submit.
War is only a means, not an end.
As long as the French succumbed, then the Western European League will be a big deal, and the neutral Spaniards will cry and cry for joining.
The European continent will once again return to a evenly matched situation, and Bulgaria will have to shift its strategic focus to the European continent, and the hegemony of the British Empire will be unbreakable.
Chamberlain retorted: "Allies are indeed very important, but we have sent troops to blockade the French coastline. How is this different from our direct participation in the war? Can the people accept it?
Don't forget, the French are now guarding the Mediterranean coast and sending the main force of the Royal Navy to the Mediterranean. It is too dangerous.
Who can guarantee that Bulgaria will not participate in the war? "
For the British Empire, a decisive battle between the Mediterranean and the Bulgarian navy was the worst choice.
...
The British are still struggling, and Germany and Italy, who are at war, are about to scold their mother.
The worst situation appeared. On the battlefield, France had the upper hand with one enemy and two. For Germany and Italy, this was simply terrible.
The French are not easy to provoke. With the natural danger of the Rhine, there is no problem with the French defending the line of defense.
The best way is to start with Belgium and Luxembourg first. This is the strategy that the Germans have always adopted.
This time it was because the war broke out too suddenly. They were dragged into the water by the Italians and had not had time to prepare for the war.
In the First World War, Belgium was not without gain. The border between them and Germany was also on the Rhine, and it would be impossible to sneak attacks.
If you want to cross the river, why should you have a boat? It can't be done with just one or two ships. The Belgian is not stupid because a large number of ships are assembled!
Although the Belgians declared neutrality, on the border with Germany, they still placed 260,000 troops to guard the Rhine.
This kind of war is not easy to fight. The border between the two countries is one hundred and eighty kilometers long. On average, there are two or three defenders per meter. Unless it is filled with human lives, it will be useless.
The combat effectiveness of the German army is strong, but unfortunately the opponent is not a soft persimmon. As the defensive side, the enemy has a geographical advantage, which makes up for the gap in the combat effectiveness of the two forces.
Berlin
"How is the Italian? Still no progress?" Prime Minister Holman asked concerned.
"No, the Italian battlefield is about to decide the victory or defeat. If we can't make a breakthrough, maybe the French will be able to parade in Rome in a while!" Chief of Staff Brausich said helplessly.
When encountering such a best ally, he has nothing to say.
It stands to reason that the Italians are now fighting to wash away the shame of the Treaty of Versailles. The morale of the people is very high, but they have returned to normal levels on the battlefield.
Since the outbreak of the war, the Italian army has been performing normally until now, and it has not exploded in any upset, which is fully in line with the impression of the outside world.
As the party that provoked the war, the Italian army launched a fierce attack from the beginning, fighting in the dark, but unfortunately the French line of defense was not moving.
After hitting, the French reacted and started a limited counterattack, and then an embarrassing scene appeared.
Even with an absolute advantage in military strength, the Italians are still at a disadvantage. If you find that a regiment is fighting against a division, don't be surprised that this is just a regular performance on the French and Italian battlefield.
The fact that the French were quickly defeated did not mean that the French army was weak. It was mainly their misjudgment in the armored forces that allowed the Germans to complete the lightning strategy.
Now that the Rhine is in danger, the German armored units cannot perform amphibious operations. They can't swim, and they can't perform their tactics no matter how powerful they are.
Germany and France faced each other across the river, and the French stretched out a hand. They still suppressed Italy, which almost collapsed the German Staff.
This is completely a replica of World War I. Because the German army overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Italian army, it once adopted a strategy of containing the main force of the French army and creating opportunities for the Italians.
The final result was of course very face-smashing. With the strength of five regiments, the French just dragged the 700,000 Italian army for a week, waiting for reinforcements.
This time it's going to be much better. Brauchich's expectations for them are already very low, so he is just helpless and not surprised.
Prime Minister Holman Zou frowned and said: "General Brauschich, we must break through the French defenses as soon as possible. If the war continues, it will be a disaster for Germany.
You should be clear that the protagonist of this war is no longer us. Now it is the battle for hegemony between Britain and Bulgaria. We must withdraw from the war as soon as possible.
Otherwise, once the war between Bulgaria and the British breaks out, the Eastern European Union will also be involved, and then we will fight on two fronts again. "
"Your Excellency, the French are now guarding the Rhine. It is almost impossible for us to make a frontal breakthrough. In fact, we don't even have the ships crossing the river.
The French deployed thousands of artillery pieces on the Rhine. Any of our ships will be smashed by bombing, unless we block the Rhine and create a chance for the troops to attack! "Braushich explained
"Block the Rhine? God, it's impossible! You have to know the consequences of blocking the Rhine. Then the entire Rhine Kingdom will become a country, and Germany will cry for it!" Holman said excitedly
"Then you can only borrow it!" Brauchich thought for a while and said
"You mean tore a hole from Belgium, there is no problem, you can do it without worry!" Holman said indifferently
Attacking Belgium ~EbookFREE.me~ He didn't have the slightest pressure. This was originally one of their strategic goals.
"No, the Belgians are also very well-prepared. It is difficult for us to make a breakthrough from the front. If we want to quickly tear through their defenses, we can only borrow from the Netherlands!" Brauchich said indifferently
Holman was in deep thought. The relationship between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and them can be said to be very good. The so-called borrowing is essentially an invasion.
The strength of the Dutch is not worth mentioning. They are used to living in peace, and their defense is very lax. It is not difficult to occupy the Netherlands.
The trouble is the follow-up political influence. Germany in this era is not the third empire in history. It does not have such a strong power. You can fight whoever you want, and they have to consider political influence.
"General Brauschich, is there really only one choice?" Prime Minister Holman asked expectantly
Brauchich replied: "If we want to open up the situation in a short time, we have no choice but to attack Belgium through the Netherlands and fight the French in a decisive battle.
Of course, if the British are willing to let the Royal Navy our army to land from the English Channel, even if I didn't say it! "
"Well, the matter of General Brauschich is very complicated. We must first inform the British. Without their support, we cannot even support ourselves in weapons and ammunition!" Prime Minister Holman said with a wry smile.
Brauchich nodded. There is no alternative. Germany lost too much in World War I and has not recovered its vitality until now.
At this time, they could not do without the help of the British. Without the support of the British, Germany and Italy are now tied together, and most of them are not opponents of the French.
Apart from other things, their self-sufficiency rate for a single weapon and ammunition is only 70%. This is because the war has not entered the climax stage.
