Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III
Chapter 152
Thank you for your reward!
The sudden change in the battlefield situation in the Kingdom of Biliz stunned the whole world.
You know, before the outbreak of war, almost most countries believed that the Germanic Empire had little chance of victory. After all, the Germanic Empire had only one ally, Austria-Hungary, and they had to adjust almost all the old powers with the power of two countries.
In particular, the Sun Never Sets Empire, the Gallic State and the Tsarist Empire were all traditional powers.
But what he did not expect was that the war had just begun, and the Germanic Empire had won a major victory in the Kingdom of Biliz with lightning speed. Once the Germanic Empire completely annihilates the coalition forces in the Kingdom of Billis, the entire coalition will be severely damaged.
The sun never sets on the other side of the strait, and the high-level of the empire is also bleak.
In particular, the Sun Never Sets Imperial Expeditionary Force also has a group army trapped in the battlefield of the Kingdom of Billis, which is in danger.
Wudu, Prime Minister’s Office, Prime Minister Asquith had gloomy faces, they didn’t seem to expect that the war had just begun, and the Sun Never Set Empire would suffer such a crushing defeat.
“Your Excellency, is there a way to rescue the 1st Army of the Expeditionary Force? That’s a whole 200,000 imperial lads. If all the losses were in the battlefield of Belis, this would inevitably have a great impact on the morale of the people. Prime Minister Asquith asked.
The Earl of Kitchener, the new Minister of War, was born in the army, had already attained the rank of marshal, and commanded many wars. For example, he commanded the Second Boer War.
Let him be the minister of war, in the hope that he can bring a victory to the Sun Never Sets Empire.
But what I didn’t expect was that the failure would come so quickly.
Originally, the anti-war voice in the empire was very high, and even not all the ministers in the cabinet supported the war with the Germanic Empire. If the battle is lost, you can imagine how many people will oppose it.
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Germanic offensive was so fierce that it was beyond our expectations. In this battle, they committed a full 1.2 million troops. Although, the coalition side threw in more troops than the Germans. But it is a pity that we are far behind them in terms of the quality of individual soldiers and support firepower.
In addition, the Germans also used a large number of new weapons in the war. They were armed with a large number of mortars that provided fire support directly to their infantry. They are also equipped with a very large number of light and heavy machine guns. Even light artillery was equipped at the infantry squad level.
More importantly, they made extensive use of aircraft and a steel weapon called tanks.
This makes it difficult for our troops to withstand their attacks.
Now, the most important thing is no longer to save the army surrounded in the territory of the Kingdom of Bilis, but how to resist the next attack of the Germans. Once the Germans continued their attack to the south, they could invade the territory of Gaul. And if the Gauls could not resist, the entire northern part of Gaul would fall. This would severely damage the strength of the Gallic state.
It even forced the Gaul kingdom to admit defeat to the Germans again in the face of heavy losses and withdraw from the war.
If that happens, it will be a disaster for us. Our own strength alone will never be able to resist the Germans on the Western Front.
At that time, the Germans will be able to transfer the main forces to the Eastern Front, defeat the Russian Empire in one fell swoop, and lock their victory on the land battlefield. ”
The Count of Kitchener expressed his opinion.
The faces of the ministers of the Sun Never Set Empire became very ugly.
“Your Excellency, that is to say, not only the Gauls are in crisis, but even we are in crisis.” Chancellor of the Exchequer Lloyd George said.
Count Kitchener nodded: “Yes, Your Excellency! This is indeed our crisis. Once the Germans won the land war, they would dominate the entire European continent. We can no longer compete with them. ”
“Well, Your Excellency, what should we do now? In any case, the Gauls cannot lose this war, and we must help them hold on. Prime Minister Asquith said.
Obviously, to help the Gauls now is to help themselves.
This truth is understood by all the high-level officials of the Sun Never Sets Empire.
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Gauls have been slow to mobilize, and they have only mobilized more than a million troops now. There are also a large number of recruits in training, and there is a lack of weapons and equipment. Problems with weapons and equipment, the Gauls are already expanding production, and at the same time ordering from the lighthouse country. However, it will take time for these problems to improve.
Until then, we need to put more troops on the battlefield, hold the front and buy more time for the Gauls. As long as they could survive, the Gauls would mobilize more troops to the battlefield to withstand the Germanic attack. Even, launched a counterattack and invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Billis.
Of course, we must also actively develop new weapons. Whether it’s planes or tanks, we also need equipment. This will give us a better chance of winning against the Germans in the future! ”
Count Kitchener said.
“Your Excellency, do you mean that in addition to the 3rd Army of the Expeditionary Force that is being sent to the European continent, we need to send more troops as soon as possible?” Prime Minister Asquith frowned.
“Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister. The 4th Army and the 5th Army of the Expeditionary Force should speed up their formation and send them to Gaul in the shortest possible time. In addition, the expeditionary force needs to form more troops. It would be better to mobilize a million more men again, bringing the size of the expeditionary force to two million. In this case, maybe we have a better chance of winning! Marshal Kitchinna said.
The ministers of the empire widened their eyes one by one.
The Sun Never Sets Empire did not attach importance to the army, and the navy was their foundation.
Now, to mobilize two million armies and send them to the European continent to protect the Gauls is naturally difficult for them to accept.
Prime Minister Asquith hesitated slightly, but made up his mind.
“When we send our army to defend the Gauls, we are defending ourselves. From now on, the War Department will begin to mobilize new troops. In addition, the Ministry of Foreign Education liaised with the Russian Empire, and we needed them to launch an offensive on the Eastern Front to contain the Germans! ”
“Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!” Both Earl Kitchener and Edward Gray replied.
