Chapter 1130： Borrow

On the other side of the ocean, as the second member of the Ocean Alliance, the United States has been extremely lively recently, and the question of whether to send troops to participate in the war has been completely quarrelsome.

Not only are members of Congress divided into factions and quarreling, but the people are also divided into several factions. With the help of the media, it has become the hottest topic in American society.

After all, the parties reluctantly reached an agreement. As the news of the London bombing arrived, everyone quarreled again.

After exhausting all his efforts, he finally calmed the crowd, but the bad news of the Malacca naval battle came again.

After a series of bad news, Theodore Roosevelt was about to collapse. If the president of the United States is not good enough, the domestic position has never been unified.

The United States was born out of Britain, and British and American capital is a piece of cake in the true sense, and interests urge the United States to stand on the side of the British.

As for the Holy Roman Empire, it is an alien of the capitalist world. Although it is also attributed to a capitalist country, what is playing internally is nationalism.

There are a lot of various restrictive conditions, and the bourgeoisie is suppressed to death. In particular, the management of financial capital has become more stringent, even to the point of harshness.

If the Holy Roman Empire wins the war, and the Shenluo model dominates the world, it will definitely be a disaster for the capital world.

If it were not for the interests to be too much involved, the British had been fooled aboard the ship early. With Britain's performance on the battlefield, Roosevelt would not have lost the British for playing.

But the reality is cruel, the United States is too deeply influenced by Britain. Both political culture and economic industry are tied to the British.

After World War II, the Americans were able to smoothly take over Britain's world hegemony. It was these interest groups that led to it.

I have to admit that the British have a strong influence these years, and while wooing the United States, they can even stabilize the alliance.

If it were not for the deep hatred between the North and the South, it is estimated that the two countries could even appear in the same trench.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the indulgence of the Vienna government.

The more allies are not the better. In choosing allies, besides the same interests, the responsibilities and influences arising therefrom must also be considered.

The power of the Holy Roman Empire in the Americas is okay to defend its colonies. It is obviously impossible to provide security to allies.

Under the influence of Franz, the pragmatic Vienna government has never done anything beyond its own capabilities.

Winning allies in America, where its own strength is weak, naturally proceeded quietly. Anyway, it's all rounded up. When cannon fodder is not enough, there is no need for these countries to rise up before the situation is uncertain.

The real significance of wooing allies lies in the construction of the post-war international situation. It is obviously better to have allies to cooperate from it than to directly force it. For the hegemony, the younger brother is better.

President Roosevelt asked with concern: "Has the expert panel's assessment results come out? How big is the chance of the British winning?"

In my heart, I was more inclined to the British. In this war, the United States was also supporting Britain, but Roosevelt still had no idea about the victory of this war.

There is no way. The divided United States is definitely not a 3-1=2 problem. When it comes to comprehensive national strength, it is at most half of the original time and space and the same period, and the industrial strength is particularly weakened.

Even if the United Kingdom and the United States combined, there is still a qualitative gap with the Holy Roman Empire. The only advantage is probably that, nominally, the Ocean Alliance covers a wider territory, more population, and more abundant resources.

But war is not only about territory, population and resources. It will take a long time for these things to be converted into military strength.

Otherwise, the population of British India alone would be almost the same as the entire Continental Alliance; the territory and resources controlled by the Ocean Alliance far surpass the Continental Alliance.

If it were not for low conversion efficiency, this war should be leaning towards the Ocean Alliance, and Britain would not be suppressed by the Holy Roman Empire.

Secretary of State Castro replied with a serious look: "The current situation is very bad, and the situation is developing in a direction that is not good for us.

Before the war broke out, the expert team evaluated that the Ocean Alliance had a chance of winning as high as 86.7%; after the London bombing, it dropped by 10%; after the results of the Malacca naval battle came, the expert team reduced it again by 20%.

It seems that the Ocean League still has a higher chance of winning, but this is the most ideal state. We have to be in an extraordinary situation.

For example: the Russians sent troops to India, or the fall of the Cape of Good Hope, the fall of British East Africa, the fall of the Indochina Peninsula, and the occupation of Persia by the Shenluo Army.

Frankly speaking, I very much doubt the combat effectiveness of the British Army. If there is no external force involved, they may not be able to stop the enemy's front with their strength. "

Although the World War broke out, Britain and the Holy Roman Empire were the only ones who actually participated in the war. At most, Japan and the Russian Empire would be brought along. The rest of the participating countries were all in the preparation stage.

As the situation took a turn for the worse, the British government naturally wanted to pull allies to end. As the number two country of the alliance, the United States must take concrete actions.

After pausing for a cup of coffee, Roosevelt said fiercely: "If this is the case, then find a way to help the British keep the site.

There may be a way out for other countries, but we cannot. The hostility of the Vienna government towards us is no longer a day or two.

Since the beginning of the Civil War, they have not given up their suppression of us. Now everyone has declared war to each other, but they will not give up whenever there is an opportunity to weaken us. "

In fact, the suppression of the United States since the Civil War has not only come from the Holy Roman Empire. Many European countries have participated in it. The difference lies in the degree of suppression.

Including restrictions on the influx of immigrants, blockades on high-tech technology, and unequal treatment in trade.

It was not until the establishment of the free trade system that the United States became a European commodity dumping market, and the political life was a little easier.

The deep-seated reason everyone knows is that the chosen country is too rich and has too much development potential, which has aroused the envy and jealousy of European countries.

In order to change this passive situation, the Washington government naturally moved closer to Britain, which is from the same source. It just so happened that the British were also squeezed out of the European world, and the two sides hit it off.

Regardless of how the international situation changes, the internal causes of the Holy Roman Empire's suppression of the United States exist, and this has become a problem that the US government must face squarely.

...

The blood-red sunset is gradually fading, the plane is still hovering in the sky, the artillery is still roaring on the ground, and the overwhelming sound of killing seems to tear the entire world.

Putting down the telescope, Grand Duke Friedrich sighed.

After a day of fighting, thousands of casualties were paid, only to advance the position by less than a mile.

Facing the declining Persian Empire, it is obviously not satisfactory to only play such a record.

There is no way, the enemy has been prepared. Caught between the three great gangsters of Britain, Russia and Austria, which day of the Persian Empire is in fear.

As the saying goes, "born in sorrow and dying in happiness", even though the Persian Empire has declined, but facing the threat of three big gangsters at the same time, the crisis consciousness of the ruling class is indispensable.

In order to protect itself, the Persian government has always used the contradictions between the three countries to swing around, just not standing in line.

In normal times, doing this is naturally the best choice. As a buffer zone for the three major powers, there is no need for a stand. Standing in line will only put yourself in a dangerous situation.

Persevering times are developing, and the international situation is also changing. The Persian government, which has not kept up with the rhythm, made wrong judgments at the stalls where the war of hegemony broke out, which triggered the war.

Although the Vienna government has repeatedly assured that it will only attack India by way of attack and will not plot Persian land, the Persians just don't believe it.

Perhaps it is because the ancestors of the Turkic left behind the allusion of "false roads against the war", which caused the Persian government to make a wrong judgment.

Not only did he reject the Vienna government's offer of borrowing, but he also hooked up with the British. Of course, the British took the initiative to ask for help.

But this is not the point. It involves the Vienna government's second strategic plan, which is related to the success or failure of the war of hegemony, and naturally cannot tolerate any warmth.

Since diplomacy can’t agree, we can only meet on the battlefield. The style of the hegemony is so unpretentious.

The line of defense in front of us was created by the Persian government over a period of several years with more than 100,000 laborers.

Probably the Persian government felt that the tortoise shell could give people a sense of security. Not only did it establish fortifications on the border with Shinra, it also had a line of defense with the Russian and British borders.

Facts have proved that the fortifications are still effective. If there were no such fortifications to rely on and directly engaged in a direct confrontation, I am afraid that the winner would be determined now.

Looking at the sky, Prince Friedrich gave up his plan to fight at night. Although the Army needs to grab time, it is not so.

I personally ran to the front line, and the battle during the day was in sight. It's not that the Shinra Army is not strong, but the enemy is already prepared.

Not only were a lot of traps dug along the way, but also a lot of landmines were buried, making it difficult for tanks and armor to exert their power.

The slow attack speed during the day is largely due to the delay of mine clearance.

According to the current situation, it is not difficult to break through the enemy's defense line, but it is difficult to break through the enemy's defense line in a short time.

Of course, as long as they are willing to fill up their lives, there is still hope.

It's a pity to take human lives, that is the unique skill of the Russians. Playing like this in the Holy Roman Empire, even if Prince Friedrich was a royal family, he still couldn't eat.

"Order the troops to stop the attack."

With the signal to withdraw, the day's battle was over, and Friedrich in the headquarters looked at the map in a daze.

After much research, Friedrich came to the conclusion: The Holy Roman Empire now needs cannon fodder troops.

Persians can use terrain to build defenses, not to mention the British. In the subsequent battle, it is indispensable to take lives.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, sacrificing 1.8 million soldiers to win India is definitely a good deal.

But Friedrich is different. As one of the few insiders in the empire, he is very aware of the domestic attitude towards India.

To describe it in one sentence: This is not a dish of the Holy Roman Empire.

Looking through the history of colonization, you will know that from Austria to the Holy Roman Empire, the goal of colonization has always been in the sparsely populated areas.

In addition to being able to plunder wealth in a short period of time, India, with a large population, has no great strategic significance to the empire.

Now that the offensive target is aimed at India, the real purpose is to put pressure on the British and force the British government to spend its national power in a decisive battle on land.

If too much sacrifice is made for this, it will lose its strategic significance. Especially when the air force and navy are performing well, the army should not have "heavy casualties."

The formation of a cannon fodder force may seem simple, but it actually affects the whole body. Not only need to consider the cost-effectiveness, but also the political impact.

These questions are not made by Friedrich, the commander-in-chief before the enemy. Only the emperor has the power to determine the establishment of the army.

...

The next day, Grand Duke Friedrich with panda eyes appeared in the sight of everyone.

"Order the third, ninth, and thirty-sixth divisions to initiate a feint attack from the front, and order the seventh, thirteenth, and eighteenth divisions to attack Persia through the Russian Empire!"

There is no doubt that this is a small gamble without risk. If the Persians did not strengthen the defense on the northern front, or the defense was not tight enough, they would naturally be over.

If prepared, it will also lengthen the front between the two countries. The longer the front line is drawn, the greater the consumption of materials and the more difficult it will be to supply logistics.

The Holy Roman Empire, which has a great family and business, can afford these consumption, but it does not mean that the Persians can also withstand the horrific consumption of the long front.

Even with the support of British allies, but now the British are too busy to take care of themselves, how much resources can they allocate to assist Persia?

The combat staff on the side reminded: "Your Excellency Commander, we haven't communicated with the Russians yet, so we may cause misunderstandings if we venture across the border to borrow."

Cross-border attack by way is definitely not an easy task. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for any sovereignty to agree, especially a big country like Russia.

I saw Friedrich shook his head: "No, this is not a cross-border excuse. We are only joining forces with the Russian army to attack Persia.

Don't forget, the tsarist government also declared war with Persia. As allies, what is the problem with our joint troops to attack Persia? "

Declare without war and cannot be brought to the table. Legally speaking, the Russian Empire is already at war with the Persian Empire.

According to the provisions of the Russia-Austria Covenant, during joint operations, the Russian army as an ally is obliged to cooperate with the Shenra army to launch an offensive.

As for whether the failure to communicate with the tsarist government in advance will cause diplomatic disputes, it is not within Friedrich's consideration.

If this problem is unsolvable, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Holy Roman Empire is not worthy of the praise of the "peak of diplomacy."
