On August 8, the war further expanded. Stalin declared war on Lanfang on behalf of Red Russia. At the same time, he sent forty divisions with nearly 600,000 troops to attack the northern Lanfang area. 23us.
Fastest update
Among these forty divisions, there are six armored divisions, four of which are equipped with Renault tanks produced in France during the World War. These were not supported by the French for Red Russia, but by the British.
It seems that George V's break with Red Russia because of the murder of Nicholas II's family was just a cover-up trick used by the British. The connection between the British and the Russians has never been interrupted.
This is normal. George V does not have much power left in the UK, and the British politicians are already hungry. In order to contain Lan Fang, or in other words, to defeat Lan Fang, the British can cooperate with the devil.
Lanfang had always been on guard against Red Russia, and Qin Zhiyuan deployed heavy troops in the northern Xinjiang, led by Wuwei Hou Jin Taihe.
Basically, there is no surprise in the attack launched by Russia. Because of the contract signed between Lanfang and Russia, the Russians must first cross the vast Central Siberia before they can come into contact with Lanfang's army. This process will take at least half a month, so Jin Tai
and enough time for war mobilization.
On August 8th, Lanfang declared war on Russia. At the same time, the Lanfang Congress asked Qin Zhiyuan to return to Lanfang and organize the Lanfang military and civilians to go all out to win this war that would determine the fate of the country.
Qin Zhiyuan had no intention of returning to his homeland. The reason why Qin Zhiyuan stayed in Sardinia, which had become a frontline, was to wait for the French's decision.
The French are very confused now. In fact, as soon as Mussolini declared war on Lanfang, Pierre, who served as Prime Minister, and Bastien, who served as Minister of War, approached Gaston Doumergue and demanded that France immediately declare war on Lanfang.
Italy declared war and attacked Italy by land to reduce the pressure on Sardinia.
To be honest, Gaston Doumergue has no feelings for Lan Fang, and his personal relationship with Qin Zhiyuan is not very good, at least not as good as the relationship between Pierre Bastien and Qin Zhiyuan. Even from the heart, Gaston
Dumegue was very disgusted with Lanfang.
Lanfang has always maintained an expansionist attitude. In the past few years, when the relationship between Lanfang and France was relatively good, Lanfang could still maintain restraint. Although Lanfang obtained Cam Ranh Bay from the French, it was just a business move. Lanfang
Fang also used legitimate means, which left Gaston Doumergue speechless.
But with the expansion of Lanfang, Lanfang's interests and the interests of France will inevitably conflict. The world is so big, and it has basically been divided between the British and the French. When Lanfang expands to a certain extent,
, conflict is inevitable.
In fact, the Western Province of Lanfang was created by the French. In addition to the current four islands of Comoros and Gaston Doumergue's experience in Corsica, Gaston Doumergue definitely has a reason.
I hate Lanfang people.
Now let Gaston Doumergue take the initiative to relieve Lanfang's pressure. Gaston Doumergue really can't do it.
Gaston Doumergue called Qin Zhiyuan and expressed his willingness to mediate the relationship between Lanfang and Italy. This was the greatest extent that Gaston Doumergue could do.
After Stalin declared war on Lanfang, Pierre and Bastien went to Gaston Doumergue again and asked France to maintain a united front with Lanfang.
Gaston Doumergue refused again, and was categorical: Impossible, it is impossible for France to stand on Lanfang's chariot. This is not in the interest of France. All the clowns are jumping out now, and the protagonist always has to wait until the end to appear.
, look at Italy, and then look at Red Russia, even if they are tied together, they are not enough to defeat the Lanfang people, so no decision can be made easily now. And so far, the United States and Britain have not expressed their stance. Their participation will really overwhelm the war.
Balance, if we make the wrong choice at this time, France will be doomed. What's more, we don't have the strength to declare war now. France shed too much blood in the last war and has not yet regained its strength. We still need to recuperate.
Gaston Doumergue's reasons are indeed very good. France has not yet completely quelled the rebellion in Morocco. Although Bastian captured Ajdir, the capital of the Rif Republic, and killed King Abdul of the Rif Republic,
Krim, but sporadic resistance still exists in the Rif Mountains, and Morocco is not completely stable. All the French army's mobile forces are still in Morocco. If France joins the war at this time, let alone whether it can win, Morocco will immediately
Variables will appear.
Compared with Italy and Russia, the statements of the United States and the United Kingdom are indeed very important. Although the United Kingdom contained France after the world war, it is undeniable that the cooperation between the United Kingdom and France during the last world war was basically pleasant. Now let
The French stood against the British, and Gaston Doumergue was indeed lacking in confidence.
At this time, we must make our voices heard. If we cannot provide help to Lan Fang when she needs it most, then there will be a permanent crack in our friendship, and it will be a crack that can never be repaired. Lan Fang
Fang's scientific and technological strength is strong, and its army and air force are unparalleled in the world. Even if the British participate in the war, the British may have an early advantage with their naval superiority, but in the long run, the decisive battle still needs to be fought on land, and the British will definitely not be able to do so on land.
To compete with the Lanfang people on land, even the Americans cannot restore their strength. Don't worry about this. We sacrificed a lot in the last world war, and so did the British. We don't have enough troops, and the British also don't have enough troops.
, and Lanfang, they have enough backup. Think about the 400 million people in the Republic of China. Lanfang has almost unlimited war potential, so don’t hesitate. This is a good opportunity to repair the relationship with Lanfang. If we don’t seize it, then
We will definitely regret it in the future. Pierre is very worried. The Lanfang people are not only an ally to Pierre, but also his relatives. Even if we do not consider the personal relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre, Pierre
Pierre's sisters, father and mother all live in Lanfang, which is enough for Pierre to do anything for Lanfang.
Pierre and Qin Zhiyuan did have differences before, but differences are normal. When facing a major threat, Pierre will definitely be willing to fight side by side with Qin Zhiyuan, just like in the last world war.
Pierre has great confidence in Lan Fang, or Pierre has great confidence in Qin Zhiyuan. Qin Zhiyuan met Pierre not long after he arrived in France. Pierre almost experienced Qin Zhiyuan's growth from a laborer.
The whole process of becoming the king of a powerful country gave Pierre full confidence in Qin Zhiyuan. No matter what the circumstances, Pierre believed that Qin Zhiyuan could become the ultimate winner.
If France does not take a stand now, then Pierre is almost certain that French Indochina will never be saved.
What Lanfang is best at is national self-determination. Although this is a method proposed by Americans, it is in the hands of Lanfang people that this method is truly carried forward. Lanfang has a good mass base in French Indochina. If Lanfang is in
If French Indochina incites national self-determination, then it goes without saying that the result will not be what the French want to see.
Mr. President, it’s time to make a decision. I have here a joint letter from forty-one generals. We unanimously demand to declare war on the Italians. Even if the British participate in the war, we do not want to become enemies with the Lanfang people in the last world.
During the war, we witnessed the strength of the Lanfang army with our own eyes. Maybe what I say next will make you feel uncomfortable, but I still want to say that when facing the Lanfang army, the French army had no confidence in winning.
Never before, even in the last world war when the Germans were only 80 kilometers away from Paris, we firmly believed that France would win the war, but now, don't say we don't have the confidence to win, we have no chance to fight at all.
If I order the battle with Lanfang's army now, then I can guarantee that the tragedy of 1916 will happen again. And if we choose to become comrades with Lanfang, believe me, we will definitely recruit enough soldiers. In fact, there is one now
An army has been assembled in Nice. We only need your order and we can immediately launch an attack on Italy. Bastian is full of confidence. Of course, this is based on the premise that France is on Lanfang's side.
We will not declare war on Italy, and we will not become Lanfang's enemy. Gaston Doumergue first blocked Bastian's words, and then shattered all Bastian's hopes: Why are there troops?
Whose order was this to assemble in Nice? Why didn’t I get the relevant notification? I emphasize again, I am the president of France. All war orders must be issued from this office, and all war actions must start from this office.
Without my order, the army is not allowed to take any action, otherwise those responsible will definitely go to the military court for trial. As for the tragedy of 1916, gentlemen, what is the difference between this kind of private behavior and that tragedy?
This accusation was a bit harsh, and Bastian immediately changed his face.
Soldiers, to some extent, have some character. Gaston Doumergue's words were tantamount to accusing Bastian of betraying France. This made Bastian, who was already angry, unable to accept it. Bastian's face turned upside down.
, you son of a bitch will blurt it out
We will neither be enemies with Lan Fang nor become Lan Fang's allies. What you mean is that if we don't participate in the war, France will be marginalized, and eventually we will lose all the right to speak, so Pierre is the first to do so.
Bastian spoke before and avoided a conflict from breaking out.
However, Pierre had just finished speaking when the door of the office was pushed open forcefully, and Gaston Doumergue's secretary rushed in panting with a telegram: Germany, Germany, participated in the war, Germany declared war on Russia, Germany
People choose to support Lan Fang
Pierre and Bastian once again set their sights on Gaston Doumergue, who had a complicated expression.
