Britain and the United States have never expressed their opinions, and France has been lobbying to pull Britain and the United States to attack China, and even regard China as the biggest enemy, and above Germany, it is very detrimental to the white world if it is not beaten down in advance, as for Germany, we can talk about it later.

The French have taken out the theory of white supremacy, and can even let go of the feud Germany, but they still have not persuaded Britain and France, Britain and the United States weighed it, or did not agree, although they also suffered losses, China's strength is too strong, until now, it is still hidden, just the strength of the show, has made Britain and France dare not act rashly, and the French purpose is different, they feel that they still put China in the end, only to kill Germany, after integrating European resources, and then attack China.

The reason is very simple, that is, the navy, about the investigation of the Scheer fleet, in the end only felt that it may be produced in Asia, which is a bit of a problem, with China's shipbuilding capacity, it has a slipway that can produce battleships, because the largest tonnage merchant ship produced in China has been as high as 50,000 tons, and the difference between merchant ships and warships is relatively large, but it is undeniable that the other side has the foundation, and even the foundation for large-scale construction.

Perhaps, Germany, like Britain, diffusion the technology of battleships in order to increase production capacity, this is the worst result, but it is not impossible, in this way, China also has the production capacity of battleships, in that case, forcibly provoking China, in the future will face a joint attack on land and sea, but Britain and the United States do not want to see, between China and Germany, vague connection, even with China's help. Germany's strength has improved a lot, and Lanfang may have been pushed to the fore by China. But as long as China does not join the camp of the Allies one day, they will not choose to push it. If China comes to join the war, I am afraid that everything will be over, and even the American people will despair.

Britain, France, and the United States are quite jealous, but they are quite powerless against China. They are already powerless in the face of a powerful Germany, unable to resist China's accession, and even if they are prepared, they cannot use it now. The French did not get the best method, which made the French quite depressed, and later France, even mentioned countless times, if they had used this during the First World War. Maybe it will rewrite the history of World War I.

In any case, after one or two decades of discussions, the plan to attack the Middle East has been adopted, because of the Middle East side. Located in the desert and without harsh winters, they will be the plan to start before the New Year of 1915. Britain, France, and the United States will reorganize an army of 500,000. Enter the Middle East and open up the Asian theater.

The war situation in Asia. In 1914, the most intense, the southern Lanfang, the siege of the city, annexed the entire Southeast Asia, including the Indochina Peninsula, the north of China and Russia, around Chita, a big fight, but in the second half of the year, because of Lanfang's strength, has occupied the entire Southeast Asia, the war gradually stopped, the north of Chita also because of the harsh winter, returned to calm, but in France, the already calm Asian war situation restarted, at the end of 1914 reopened. Historically, the end of 1914 was positioned as the fuse for the expansion of the First World War, which directly burned Asia into the flames of war, and contributed to the world's largest power at that time, that is, the world hegemon of later generations of China to join the war group, history is written by the victors, historically, China has too much pain and misery, from 1910 after the rise of the northwest, China began to rise to change its own destiny, but also changed the trajectory of the world, a spanning 3 continents, The birth of a superpower with a land area of nearly 30 million square kilometers is definitely not a historical coincidence.

The closed-door meeting of the Entente was quite high-level, only the military generals participated, even if it was a staff officer, at least at the level of a major general, and paid attention to secrecy, although Germany got the news that the Entente held a meeting in London, but it never got the results of the meeting, they maintained their attention to the Entente, and more, it was still at home.

The situation of the London Conference, before it broke out, had nothing to do with the Scheer fleet for the time being, Britain risked laying mines in the Baltic Sea, even if it did not completely block the Baltic Sea, but blocked half of it, and placed millions of mines in the Baltic Sea, under the huge mine belt, not to mention a powerful fleet like the Scheer fleet, even the capital ships of the high seas fleet would not go out, and the navy only had minesweepers and small ships to set off, and the rest returned to the port to rest. After half a month of rest, especially when the fighters, who had been away from Germany for more than two years and had been training hard, returned home to recuperate and use what they had exchanged from China here, the morale was really shocking.

Although Germany's domestic situation, compared with Britain and France is slightly stronger, it is still dragged into the war, in the past year, the cumulative casualties of 1.5 million people have put heavy pressure on Germany, Germany itself, food and all kinds of raw materials, is not self-sufficient, now go one step further, if it is not for the support of China, there is no labor in exchange for Zhongyuan, and there is a plan to acquire cultural relics, the situation in Germany will become even worse.

After the start of the war, Britain, France and Germany, have entered a state of emergency, and the control of key materials has been carried out, and the lives of residents are tight, and the sense of family happiness has plummeted compared with the station.

At this time, the sailors of the Scheer fleet, from the hands of China, received a reward from the hands of China, and unexpectedly got a withdrawal coupon, this withdrawal coupon can directly withdraw Chinese goods, on average, there are thousands of dollars, this money before the war, it is also a very good welfare, after the war, it is even richer, compared to cash, materials are more important, because of the distribution according to demand, many things are controlled, if you want to get it, you need to pay ten times more than before, or even twenty times, most of the sailors, did not exchange, However, a small number of families with poor conditions exchanged these things, which directly changed the family environment.

In the context of the world war, the withdrawal of coupons for sailors is really not a big problem, and even the German government did not pay much attention to it, and made great contributions, and the members of the fleet who came from the Far East deserved to be rewarded, even if they were traded, it didn't matter.

For those low-level officers and soldiers who can take vacation, the past half a month has been an absolute holiday and jubilation. But for Scheer's 15 days, because of the relationship of another expedition, even the 3-day vacation that was approved before was gone, he just went home for a night, reunited with his wife and children, and then returned to the fleet, he needed to make a series of debriefing reports, he had been away from Germany for 2 years, many things could not be solved in the telegram, at that time it was just a simple record, and now, it is the real debriefing. The most important thing is that in the past year, he has been almost free, especially his follower Lan Fang, who conquered the whole of Southeast Asia and India, and obtained a lot of wealth, most of which were exchanged for raw materials and a few Bavaria-class ships, but a small part was exchanged for 87 tons of gold, plus 250 tons of silver, and returned with the fleet.

This return trip can be regarded as a life of death, compared to others, such a huge wealth is still in the hands of the fleet, but it is a few hundred tons more, for a 50,000-ton battleship, a battleship that refuels in thousands of tons, it is really nothing. 87 tons of gold, a few years ago, before the outbreak of the war, was not a big deal, when Germany had more than 500 tons of gold, and it would be nice to stabilize the value of the mark with that gold, and after the icing on the cake, at most the value of the gold itself.

Now, it is completely different, after the outbreak of the war, even if there is a lot of open source throttling, the surge in consumption after the start of the war, still makes Germany unable to get out, the support of the northwest, in most cases, can not be credited, or in kind, or hard currency, from the benefits of population trading and cultural relics trading, most of them have flowed into the arms of the Chinese, these 87 tons of gold and silver, plus a large number of raw materials harvested before, can be regarded as after Germany entered 1914, The best news.

With this gold, a basin of stagnant German finance can slowly move, at least to promote some industries, a wave of renewal and production, which is very critical for Germany now.

For a full 10 days, Schell was debriefing, and it took 10 days to make everything in Southeast Asia clear, especially the views on China and the Lanfang Navy, which is the top priority of this debriefing, China has the ability to produce battleships a few years ago, which Germany knows very well, but being able to produce battleships does not mean that the navy must be strong, the century-old navy is not a joke, it requires too many technicians, China has no naval tradition, and can build warships, It's because he has enough machines, but the navy is not a machine, and it needs to be cultivated slowly.

But Sher's opinion is different, just an aiming system can allow China to cross the level of experience, the most important thing for battleships is to attack, everything else is relatively secondary, the sighting system can replace human experience, and others can be replaced by long-term training, so it seems that the combat effectiveness of the entire Chinese Navy is not low.

Scheer's evaluation of China did not cause much turmoil in the Admiralty, and even in Scheer's view, the wind and waves were over, and after 10 days of debriefing, Scheer was appointed commander of the Ocean Fleet, that is to say, in the current Navy, in addition to Tirpitz, the founder and spiritual leader of the High Seas Fleet, only Scheer has the highest rank, and Scheer is second only to the commander of the High Seas Fleet Senior officer, otherwise he cannot be in charge of Scheer's fleet. No one questioned it, and it passed smoothly. (To be continued.) )
