"What?"

"Is this true?"

"Are you sure?"

Austrian Prime Minister's Office, after reading the telegram in his hand, Mr. Prime Minister couldn't help but look up at his secretary, his eyes widened, his face was full of disbelief, and his mouth was even more direct and a set of three questions.

Obviously, the contents of the new telegram that he had just received were so unexpected that he did not believe it, or rather, he did not dare to believe it, nor did he want to believe it.

Of course, if you know the content of this telegram, you can understand the mood of the Austrian prime minister at this time.

The British Empire, actually openly condemned them Austria?

It's true, so much to the disbelief and disbelief of Oshu.

"Here's what happened in the morning."

The secretary sighed:

"They... A press conference was held and the public ... Expressed its condemnation of our act of supplying weapons and ammunition to the Japanese. ”

It can be seen from the secretary's hesitant and intermittent tone that it took him a long time to accept this fact.

"How can this be!"

"How so!"

After confirming the authenticity of the news, the Austrian prime minister could only force himself to accept the reality with difficulty and slowly.

"We..."

"How could it be..."

The prime minister paced back and forth.

After a while, the prime minister found that he really couldn't accept it and couldn't understand it.

Although Oshu now hugs the thigh of the United States, it is still loyal to the British Empire, and at present, hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting on the British mainland, on the west coast of France, to fight for the British Empire.

It still provides supplies for the British Empire, although it is not an important material, after all, Oshu himself is poor, but he has tried his best!

As for turning around and reporting the American thigh, this can't be blamed on Austria, who let you British Empire not give up?

As a result, they came to condemn them.

Although there was no loss in being condemned, it was very uncomfortable and demoralizing.

And what happened to the supply of weapons to the Japanese?

The prime minister was very angry and aggrieved, and felt that the world was not worth it.

"Mr. Prime Minister."

The secretary continued to sigh:

"According to the information we have, last month, 1.5 million tons of materials were transported from the Republic of China to the British mainland, including more than 300,000 tons of various military supplies, including anti-aircraft artillery."

"And as of yesterday 20th this month, this amount has increased to two million tons."

"Transported from the Republic of China to the British mainland?"

The Prime Minister apparently heard the news for the first time and was stunned for a long time.

Now that the Germans have cut off the Strait of Gibraltar, this means that although the Suez Canal is still in the hands of the British Empire, the shipping route between Britain and Asia must detour through the Cape of Good Hope, the southernmost part of Africa.

The range directly increased by more than eight thousand kilometers.

And.

Compared with the United States to the British mainland, it is an increase of 16,000 kilometers, no matter how you look at it, it is not cost-effective to buy materials from the Republic of China to the British mainland.

Of course, if this was true, he understood why he had been betrayed.

Although hundreds of thousands of troops are important.

However, after the bombing of the British Empire, the Austrian army mainly relied on the American army to fight, and became the actual little brother of the United States, while the British Empire, which had colonies all over the world, was not scarce, and the need for materials was more urgent after the large-scale destruction of domestic industry.

For the sake of millions of tons of monthly supplies, to buy Oshu, he can understand.

Yes, he would do the same.

Just like when the Pacific War broke out, he threw himself into the arms of the United States.

"Yes."

The secretary continued:

"In addition, there are more than 100,000 native British technicians working in the Republic of China, in the form of war labor!"

"War Laborers!"

Although the Austrian Prime Minister, who has been disconnected from the Internet for a long time, knows that a large number of Britons go to work in the Republic of China, he is still unclear about the war labor, after all, the mouthpiece of the world is now in the hands of Britain and the United States.

The Yankees have apparently not yet dismantled the British Empire.

"How so?"

The Prime Minister still doesn't understand.

"Information gleaned from the UK mainland."

The secretary explained:

"The materials transported by the Republic of China to the British mainland are half cheaper than those in the United States."

"What!"

The Austrian Prime Minister was even more incomprehensible.

How is this possible to increase the shipping distance by nearly three times and the distance to be half cheaper? Could it be that the people of the Republic of China are robbing business at a loss? Buying the British Empire? Robbing the Americans?

How did this happen?

It's not logical!

"Also."

The secretary continued:

"Those skilled workers who go to the mainland of the Republic of China will pay at least $100 million to the British government for labor services on the other side!"

"This!"

It was even more incomprehensible, but for the first time, the Austrian Prime Minister realized that the situation might be a lot more troublesome than he expected!

Although the other side of the strait has just broken away from the war, its strength is much stronger than he imagined, not only military strength, can do business with the British Empire, but also millions of tons, economically, industrially, I am afraid that it is far beyond his expectations.

At this time, when the Austrian Prime Minister had not yet digested the shocking news, a secretary ran in in a hurry:

"Prime Minister, there was an armed conflict in the northern city of Gove, more than 500 people occupied the local municipality, they say, to be autonomous!"

"What!"

The prime minister bit his tongue directly.

He hurriedly rushed to the map and looked at the city where the armed conflict was taking place, a small port city on the north and west coast, mainly mining, with a population of just over five thousand people, and in Oshu, such a city is actually not small, after all, the total population does not exceed 10 million.

In this port city, there are more than 2,000 people working on the opposite shore.

"Damn! The other side is behind the scenes! ”

The prime minister immediately realized that the crux of the matter was that the people on the other side were behind it, otherwise with Gove's vigilance and the strength of their control over the miners, they would not have been able to carry out an armed riot.

"Immediately mobilize troops to suppress it."

The Austrian Prime Minister immediately issued an order:

"Arrest them all, and if you dare to resist, shoot them directly!"

"Where's the nearest Army unit?"

Mr. Prime Minister then asked.

He didn't panic.

Although the main force of the Austrian army was abroad because of its participation in the European war, there were still many army and garrison troops stationed in China at this time, with a total strength of no less than 30,000, and as for the navy, seventy percent was in China.

Enough to suppress the rebellion.

As for the other side, although the old owner of the British Empire is unreliable, the fleet of the United States of America has already departed.

"An infantry battalion, more than five hundred people, armed with four M3 tanks, is stationed in Nuland, a hundred kilometers away."

The secretary replied immediately.

"Let them go at once."

Prime Minister Says:

"Arrive as fast as you can, and suppress the rebellion, I just need speed."

A hundred kilometers, along the road, the infantry can arrive in three days at most.

"Let the Navy send another destroyer over."

······

Natuna.

"Be careful, be sure to fix it."

Inside the airfield, a platoon commander was directing the loading and unloading crews to load four 75 anti-tanks, dozens of boxes of artillery shells onto a four-round transport plane.

On the other side, the same four-engine transport plane was parked, and the same officer was directing three large jeeps and barrels of fuel that were also loaded into the cargo hold of the plane.

The perspective lifted, and a full row of four-engine transport planes were loading and unloading cargo in an orderly manner, each with an officer on the side to supervise.

Because of the problem of counterweight in flight, aircraft loading and unloading is also a technical job.

Therefore, after the goods are loaded into the warehouse, the two platoon commanders carefully inspect the warehouse to ensure that the goods are fixed and stable, and there will be no problems during the flight.

In the early days, there were many lessons of blood and tears in the troops, but now a large number of new recruits have poured into the troops, and officers at all levels have to work hard.

In a room under the airport tower, a logistics staff officer is reporting to a battalion commander:

"A total of eight transport aircraft, transporting a total of 100 tons of supplies, including eight 75-mm anti-tank guns, four 120 mortars, sixteen 60 mortars, two base shells, twenty 84-mm recoilless guns, 1,600 shells, ten 12.7-mm machine guns, 40,000 rounds of 12.7-mm ammunition..."

"Eight 75 anti-tank guns, four 120 mortars ...

The battalion commander's tone was full of emotion.

This battalion commander is an old man in the army, he participated in the Battle of Pingxingguan back then, he was still a big soldier at that time, and the battle of that year is still vividly remembered.

"I remember, there are only more than 500 people over there, right?"

The battalion commander asked.

"Yes."

The staff officer replied:

"At present, Gove has gathered 570 armed men, which is expected to increase to 1,500 in three days, and there is enough light weapons such as rifles and light machine guns, but there is a lack of heavy weapons."

"Fifteen hundred."

The battalion commander's tone was still emotional.

Even fifteen hundred, the number of these weapons is staggering.

However, the strength of less than one battalion actually had eight anti-tank guns, four 120 mortars, twenty 84 recoilless guns, ten 12.7 heavy machine guns, and sixteen 60 mortars.

"Can they beat it?"

The battalion commander was somewhat worried.

Because this time, they can't directly participate in the war, and they have to solve it by the people on the other side of the strait, after all, it's not the time when they were in their own homes before, and they have to pay a little attention to the international influence.

"No problem."

The staff officer's tone was very affirmative:

"According to intelligence, the nearest unit is a mule-horse infantry battalion, although it is equipped with four M3 tanks, two M1 Type 75 field guns, and there are few heavy weapons."

"Even the mortars are only four American-made 60."

"And the unit has not been in actual combat, it is a second-line unit that has just been formed for a short time."

"Most of Gove's self-defense troops have undergone formal military training, and many of them are veterans of the Songhu War, and there is no problem in winning this group of old, weak, sick and disabled."

"M3 tank."

The battalion commander burst out laughing.

This kind of tank, Zhao Jiayu's weapon training ground has, this thing is very comfortable, but on the battlefield, especially now that individual anti-tank weapons are popular, it is completely an iron coffin.

Seven brothers coffin!

There is no wrong nickname.

The body that is too tall is very easy to get shots, the firing range is extremely poor, the multi-turret is a complete joke, the armor is also pitifully weak, and the gasoline engine is simply a lighter, and it is enough to hit it.

"The only trouble is the destroyer nearby."

The staff officer said this, with a solemn look:

"Gough is a port city, only fifteen kilometers deep, the whole city is covered by naval guns, and this is the only place nearby where transport planes can take off and land, we can't intervene directly, so they must push inland as soon as possible and occupy the new airfield."

"Other transport planes that can take off and land and places where there is a water source suitable for stationing are more than 100 kilometers away."

"More than a hundred kilometers."

The battalion commander nodded.

This one is hardly difficult.

As long as you take root, block the first wave of attacks, and with the support of your own transportation of supplies and equipment, you can call on the surrounding laborers to gather, and then assemble a decent armed force.

A unit that can fight head-on against the Austrian army.

Then, when Wang Gensheng and them teach the Yankees a lesson and let the Americans be honest, the matter will be a foregone conclusion.

An hour later, eight transport planes finished loading and flew south in the darkness of night.

······

"What?!"

At the White House, Mr. President immediately received a request for help from Oshu.

"Armed autonomy in Gove?"

Mr. President didn't understand for a while.

"Gove is a small port in the northeast of Austria, dominated by miners on the other side, and the Austrian prime minister has mobilized army and navy destroyers to control the situation, and the two sides are expected to engage in battle in two days."

The secretary hastened to add.

"Armed self-government!"

Mr. President instantly understood that this was the other side fighting back.

"Hmph."

Mr. President sneered:

"Do you really think that no one in the Asia-Pacific region can cure them? Do you really think that the United States will not be able to draw its strength? ”

"Inform Prime Minister Austria."

The president pondered for a moment and looked at the secretary:

"The American fleet is being assembled, and it will be ready to leave in half a month."

At least ten aircraft carriers are needed to go to the Asia-Pacific region, and he directly mobilized twelve aircraft carriers, while the main forces of the US Navy are in the European region, and it will take a long time to assemble.

"In addition, tell him that the United States is Austria's most solid ally, and we will firmly defend Austria's freedom and integrity."

Mr. President added.

Most of the Austrian army fought in Europe, serving as cannon fodder for the United States, and the previous Battle of Cherbourg, the death toll reached 30,000, one-fifteenth of the total strength, which is quite good cannon fodder.

So it's important.

However, Gove's armed self-government action must have been planned for a long time on the other side, and the main force of the Austrian army is not in the country, so it may suffer losses in the early stage, so Mr. President must give Austria enough confidence.

"Yes."

The secretary immediately went to carry it out.

Then the president opened a document on his desk - "Construction of Ten Midway-class Large Aircraft Carriers, Jet Carrier-Based Fighter Development Work, and Continued Construction of Essex-Class Aircraft Carriers"

After the last combat meeting, the American navy leaders deeply realized that although the United States Navy is the largest in the world, and it can even be said that it is much larger than the rest of the world combined, in terms of quality, it is probably far inferior to the other side.

After several successive technical meetings, the Austrian Navy was beaten turkeys in the Indian Ocean, and finally this group of naval bigwigs found the key - the propeller aircraft were so slow that the enemy was given enough time to defend the aircraft.

So jets must be pushed on board as soon as possible.

So this document was drafted as quickly as possible, and the new project was promoted, as well as the reform of the American Navy.

When a new ship cannot be launched in a day or two, even if the design has been finalized, even if it is the United States, which is fully firepowered, it will take a long time, but the pressure on the shore is already not small, and even if it is not happy, it must continue to increase the scale in order to maintain its superiority.

When one ship is launched on the other side, the United States launches three or even four ships, making up for quality with quantity.

After a moment of contemplation, Mr. President signed his name on the paper.

"Tell the Minister of Finance to come over."

After that, Mr. President had the Minister of Finance called.

To be honest, Mr. President was a little flustered.

Radar project, missile project, new anti-aircraft gun project, jet carrier-based aircraft project, ten Essex-class aircraft carrier construction program, ten Midway-class aircraft carrier construction program.

There is also a mass refitting of new tanks, jet fighters.

Can the American money bag still be carried by it?

······

The other side.

Guam.

A group of people looked at a whole row of twelve-wheeled tractors and transporters on the flat ground, as well as the wagons towed behind the tractors loaded with missiles, with curious looks.

Missile!

They've seen a lot.

Guam is also home to a number of missile boats, land-based anti-ship missiles, anti-aircraft missiles, but,

It was the first time that everyone had seen such a large missile, and the length was estimated to be thirteen meters, and the diameter was estimated to be not small, but it was not close to one meter, and it looked like a jet with shortened wings.

"That's a big guy!"

A deputy head muttered to himself.

"Overlord anti-ship missiles."

An officer from the Regiment's Logistics and Technical Center said:

"With a dead weight of 9.5 tons, land-based and sea-based launches, it can carry a one-ton high-explosive armor-piercing warhead, and has a maximum range of more than 750 kilometers when there is high-altitude follow-up guidance."

In order to make up for the lack of surface ships and give the Yankees a hard dismount, Grand Master Li approached Boss Chen, and finally produced the guy in front of him - the heirloom of the master of improving the aesthetics of self-violence-

P500 Volcanic Rock anti-ship missile.

And on the basis of the original, the size was increased by one lap, and the weight was doubled, which also led to an increase in the firing range to 750 km.

"Shhh

As soon as this number came out, a series of sounds of inhaling cold air came.

A ton of warheads.

After a few shots, the Yamato will have to be cool.

Seven hundred and fifty kilometers!

That is, without sending attack aircraft, it is possible to directly attack a ship at a distance of 750 kilometers?

For a while, the eyes of everyone looking at this missile have become extremely hot - this completely makes up for the biggest shortcoming of the current troops.
