The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

Chapter 86 Reactions of various countries

Originally, countries attracted Egypt because of Egypt's strong military strength and regional deterrence.

When it comes to national strength, countries actually don't pay too much attention to Egypt, which just defeated Italy.

After all, in the eyes of various countries, the country of Egypt is too small and has too few soldiers to fight.

Four hundred thousand Egyptian active-duty troops sounds like a lot, but in the eyes of various countries, in the last war, Egypt's army would have been wiped out in a week.

Moreover, regardless of its industrial strength or economic level, Egypt is far from being a truly powerful country in all aspects.

Modern warfare is no longer the ancient era of killing generals and capturing flags. The outcome of a battle cannot influence the entire war situation.

What really affects the situation of modern war is the overall strength and comprehensive national strength of a country. As long as the country can still recruit troops and factories can produce weapons to arm the army, the war will continue.

Even if the people are impoverished and the supplies are extremely scarce, and they can only eat tulip bulbs to satisfy their hunger, the war will not stop as long as the army can be maintained.

Just like during World War I, Britain mobilized 5.7 million troops to fight in the war, and a large number of colonial troops followed the British army to fight. The Indian colonies alone mobilized 1.3 million Indian troops to fight in Europe.

Throughout World War I, 900,000 British troops died in battle, and more than 300,000 colonial troops died.

France has always been a powerful land force in Europe. Before the outbreak of World War I, the French army had more than one million standing troops, which was the main force against the German army.

During World War I, the French army mobilized a total of 7.9 million people to participate in the war, and a large number of African colonial troops followed the French army.

During the entire First World War, France lost a total of 1.24 million soldiers, not counting the deaths of colonial troops.

Because France was the main battlefield of World War I, many large battles were fought on French soil, so French civilians also suffered heavy casualties. According to post-war French government statistics, the four-year First World War caused a loss of 58% of French young people aged 20 to 30, almost wiping out a generation.

Britain and France suffered such heavy casualties, and Germany was not far behind. During World War I, Germany mobilized 11 million people to participate in the war, accounting for one-sixth of the entire country's total number of people. It lost 1.77 million people in action, making it the country with the largest number of war dead.

In fact, Germany did not lose on the battlefield at that time. When Germany surrendered, the German army was still attacking Paris, but Germany's national power had been drained.

Germany's domestic resources are depleted. Whether it is food and logistical supplies, or ammunition and other ammunition, Germany has already supplied them. They have completely exhausted their last vestige of war potential.

As for Russia, where the October Revolution broke out, it was even worse. During the entire World War I, Russia mobilized a total of 15.8 million people to participate in the war, accounting for one-third of the total mobilization of the entire Allied Powers, ranking first among all countries.

The casualties of the Russian army were also extremely high, with a total of 1.7 million killed. Moreover, the Russian organization was backward and the statistics were accurate. According to post-war speculation, the casualties of the Russian army should far exceed this figure.

This is also an important reason why in the end, Russian people's dissatisfaction boiled and revolution broke out.

As a country of serfdom, Tsarist Russia's army has always been called gray animals, and the people have long been overwhelmed. The consumption of the war has drained the last bit of vitality of this decadent empire and pushed the people to the limit.

This led to the outbreak of the February Revolution and the October Revolution in Tsarist Russia at that time, which overthrew Tsarist Russia and established the later Soviet regime.

It can be seen that in modern war, a country will not end the war unless it completely drains itself.

Because of this, although Egypt showed strong combat effectiveness in the war against Italy, they won too quickly, which made European countries believe that although the Egyptian army had strong combat effectiveness, Egypt itself did not have the strength to support a major war. .

Previously, various countries only regarded Egypt as a force that could influence the local war situation, rather than a factor that could affect the overall war trend.

In short, Egypt is not yet up to the standards of the great powers, and if a war breaks out, it will not be counted as a major participant in the war.

Therefore, although various countries are wooing Egypt, they do not regard it as an important ally that can influence the war situation.

But the establishment of the Magic Academy made Egypt's status suddenly different. This is Egypt's unique technology! And it has been proven in war that the power of magic can greatly affect a war, and can even resurrect the dead!

As an ally of Egypt, the United Kingdom has always maintained good relations with Egypt. Although it will not run out of quotas, in order to be more secure and to obtain more quotas, the United Kingdom directly agreed to the agreement that it had been negotiating with Egypt before. The inclusion of the Anglo-Egyptian Condominium Sudan within the scope of Egyptian territory.

Moreover, the British also selected some suitable candidates from among the eligible women of the royal family, and planned to use the old method of the Victorian era to get married.

If it weren't for the fact that the royal family didn't have a suitable candidate, I'm afraid Britain would already be calculating which princely title to give Chen Mo.

The British can play the emotional card and pay practical benefits, so they naturally feel that getting a place is a sure thing.

The Germans are different. They didn't have much contact with Egypt before, which was just ordinary normal diplomatic relations.

Even if the head of state hoped to win over Egypt before, the actions of German diplomats were ineffective.

But at this moment, for the sake of Egyptian magic knowledge, the head of state has spent a lot of money and cruelty. He directly provided 100 million US dollars in aid and promised to help Egypt develop its industry, just to obtain the power of magic from Egypt.

As for the French and the Soviets, they also came up with various conditions and benefits, hoping to get their own share of the pie.

Even Italy, which had just been beaten by Egypt, came over with a frown, saying that the war should not affect the friendship between the two countries.

Faced with the generous terms offered by various countries, Chen Mo did not ask the Egyptian government to agree immediately. Instead, he delayed the matter on the grounds that the king was still visiting the United States and had not returned, and the Egyptian government had no right to make a decision on this matter.

While dragging other countries along, Egypt has begun a large-scale screening of the appropriate age group. Children under the age of sixteen can take the test. Once they are detected to have magic talent, they can be exempted from all tuition fees and directly enroll in the magic academy. student.

Suddenly, applicants gathered from all over Egypt, and there were long lines in front of each testing point, all of them parents who brought their children to take the test.

After some screening, quite a few good ideas were discovered.
