Bulgarian Empire

Vol 5 Chapter 110: , Collapse

Genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads!? Compared to the French government's pending price, the Vienna government is much more straightforward. The British Empire is very powerful, but this Niubi has nothing to do with them.

Even if the Royal Navy dominates the world, it is impossible for it to go to the Adriatic Sea to show off its prestige. On the contrary, the Bulgarian next door is even more terrifying.

If they stand in the wrong team at this time, their life will be impossible.

The Otranto Strait is the Bulgarian inland river. As long as Bulgaria comes to a military exercise here every other time, the shipping of the Austro-Hungarian Empire will be over.

Maritime transportation is only a minor issue. As a land-powered country, the Austria-Hungary Empire has always had a very small diplomatic choice.

Just as they had to deal with the Germans before the First World War, they also had to deal with the relations with Bulgaria after the First World War. They had almost no choice in diplomacy.

It can only be said that God did not bless them, and their location determines their tragic life.

In the Crimean War, the Austro-Hungarian Empire betrayed its ally, the Russian Empire, and caused heavy losses to the Russians, which opened the prelude to the conflict between Russia and Austria.

In World War I, the Austro-Hungarian Empire betrayed the Germans again. This time it was revenge for the Prussian-Austro-Prussian War, but since then the two countries have also forged feuds.

Traitors are always the most hated!

If there is no major change, the hatred between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Germany and Russia will not be solved in a short time.

At this time, if you hit the bar with Bulgaria again, you won't be able to think about it!

...

Bulgaria is about to excavate the Grand Canal in the Gulf of Aqaba. This news has caused a lot of noise in the European continent. There are different opinions. Many people are speculating that the conflict between Britain and Bulgaria will break out.

But one thing is certain, and that is related to the Suez Canal Management Company's increase in navigation fees, and conflict of interest is the most irreconcilable contradiction.

Almost all countries in the world are expecting that the contradiction between Bulgaria and the British Empire can intensify, and it is best to fight directly.

In particular, the Revolutionary Party, which is clamoring for independence in Southeast Asia, was even more encouraged by the news from the Japanese.

Obviously they were thinking too much. As time passed, there was no escalation of the conflict between the two countries, except for a scolding war between the two countries in the newspaper, which then ended.

No, but Bulgaria is over. Britain can be very lively. The London media is arguing about this issue. There are all kinds of arguments, and no one can convince anyone.

However, the London media still highly praised Stanley Baldwin's cabinet for its performance in this incident.

From the beginning to the end, Stanley Baldwin’s cabinet was very calm and quarreled with the Bulgarian government, did not intensify the conflicts between the two sides, and did not go silly.

After all, although the Suez Canal has great political influence, it has nothing to do with the vast majority of British people economically except for the relevant people.

Whether their economic interests are damaged, they have no personal pain, and certainly do not want the conflict to escalate.

Even if the Grand Canal in the Gulf of Aqaba is opened, the role of the Suez Canal will indeed decrease, but the core value of the benefits will remain unchanged, and it can still connect the most important colony of the British Empire-India.

As long as the core interests are preserved and some navigation fees are lost, most people will not be concerned about it. No matter how much the Canal Company makes, it has nothing to do with them.

In the eyes of ordinary people, if the Bulgarians want to dig a canal, they should dig it. If they dig a canal on their own land, it is not easy for the British Empire to intervene!

Moreover, the canal cannot be dug in a day or two. The Suez Canal has been dug for more than ten years. What's more, the construction of the Aqaba Bay Canal is more difficult and farther away?

According to British media reports, the most optimistic estimate is ten years, most of which are expected to take 20 to 30 years, and the most pessimistic estimate is the lifetime series.

Their calculation method was based on the engineering volume of the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal. As for the organizational ability, scientific and technological progress was directly ignored by them.

Everyone is amateur. If you guess it right, you can report that they have a foresight in the future. It doesn't matter if you guess it wrong. You can find a lot of reasons to prove it.

As journalists, as long as there are topics, they are not the chief engineer of the Aqaba Canal, and they are not responsible for these remarks.

...

"Your Majesty, something happened to the British colonies in Southeast Asia!" Foreign Secretary Metjeev said gleefully.

"British colonies in Southeast Asia are filled with gunpowder every day, what can happen?" Ferdinand said indifferently

In his opinion, most of the British colonies in Southeast Asia have fallen, even if the situation is bad, it will be the same.

"On May 8, 1927, the rebels in Southeast Asia launched a counterattack against the British at the same time. When they were unable to defend themselves, the British army was almost completely defeated. Singapore has fallen. If not, Mr. Churchill would have become a prisoner.

Not only that, the British warship moored in the port of Singapore was also sunk by the rebels as a battleship and two cruisers! "Medev replied solemnly

"It's impossible! Is the British army a rice bucket? Is this a record that the Southeast Asian rebels can achieve?" Ferdinand questioned

This is no longer an impressive record, this is simply a mythical record!

What's more, the battleship has sunk, are you sure you haven't opened it?

Even if Churchill's commanding ability is poor, the army in his hands can't do anything about it. Can't fight the rebellion in the jungle, so can't defend the city?

How about the fighting power of the rebels, do you still need to doubt? It must be a mob? Could it be that the British army can't even win against a mob?

"Your Majesty, this news is true! I have verified that it was not the rebels who defeated the British this time, but the harsh weather conditions in Southeast Asia.

According to the information we have collected, the Southeast Asian region has entered the summer from March, when a large number of mosquitoes and ants multiply.

After being bitten by a mosquito, the British army experienced a very serious non-combat attrition, and the morale of the army has long been underestimated.

Most of these foreign reinforcements have lost their combat effectiveness due to unacceptable conditions. The rest are panic and unwilling to fight. "Medev explained

"No, it's not a day or two since the British have occupied Southeast Asia. They cannot be ignorant of these problems. In that case, they should have been prepared. How could such a low-level mistake occur?" Ferdinand asked in confusion.

"Your Majesty, this may have something to do with politics. In order to suppress the rebellion as soon as possible, the reinforcements drawn by the British government from outside this time did not have time to adapt to the local climate and were sent to the front.

At the same time, the Japanese have also taken action this time, including the army that conquered Singapore. They are all dominated by Japanese expatriates. It seems that many Chinese have also joined the rebels.

Their combat effectiveness is much stronger, and they are commanded by experienced Japanese officers. Moreover, in the fighting over the past six months, the rebels have also obtained a lot of weapons from the British.

The elite of these rebels are not much inferior to the British in terms of weapons and equipment. Under the condition of equal strength, the British are really not their opponents! "Medev analyzes

Ferdinand thought for a while and found out that it seems that this is really possible. In the First World War in history, Mr. Churchill made this mistake.

For political needs, regardless of the actual situation, the Anglo-French coalition forces were not ready yet, they ordered the launch of the Dardanelles campaign and staged a flower-like gift.

This time it was nothing more than a different time point, a different place, and the same mistake, which seemed impossible.

The rainy season is from May to October in Southeast Asia. If the rebels cannot be suppressed before the rainy season, the British army will have to be passively beaten after May.

Probably summarizing the failure of last year, in February and March 1927, the British army had been fighting very well, and the scope of activities of the rebels had been suppressed.

Seeing that victory was in sight, Myanmar turned the other way around, and the previous efforts were in vain, so after the reinforcements arrived in April.

A counterattack before the onset of the rainy season, a blow to the arrogance of the rebels, an explanation to the country, and relief of the pressure on oneself, this is very similar to the style of Mr. Churchill.

As a result, the reinforcements that were not satisfied with the soil and water were scattered on the battlefield. They lost their combat effectiveness within a few days of fighting and were finally given the opportunity to take advantage of the enemy.

These are all made up by Ferdinand on his own. The true situation has yet to be verified. There are many reasons for the failure of the British.

"Then the battleship problem? Even if the insurgents have captured the British artillery, the army's artillery can hit the unsinkable battleship!

Could it be that God was taking care of them, and there happened to be an oil tanker next to him. The rebel artillery hit the tanker, and then the fuel inside exploded, finally taking away a battleship? "Ferdinand asked suspiciously

"Your Majesty, this is really a good idea. It's a pity that after a good opportunity, otherwise we can get a bunch of tankers filled with fuel and dock at the Singapore port. It is estimated that this time the British will lose most of the Far East.

It seems that the Japanese specially developed a suicide missile for the insurgent army. As long as there is a death squad rack with shells, it can attack warships. This weapon is launched at close range and is very powerful!

This time the insurgents fired dozens of suicide missiles before sinking a British battleship! "Mejeff expressed regret.

It seemed that he had missed a golden opportunity. Not only Metzhev but also Ferdinand secretly regretted not considering this issue.

Otherwise, the crude oil exported from Bulgaria to Japan can be docked at Singapore ports, and a fuel explosion of tens of thousands of tons, or even hundreds of thousands of tons, can already cover Singapore ports.

With such a small price, silently losing a third of the Royal Navy is a huge profit. It is a pity that such an opportunity is gone forever!

"It's really a pity. Not only was this opportunity missed, but our plan to use the colonial rebellion in Southeast Asia to drag down the British was also aborted.

After such a big incident, I am afraid that the London government will soon be replaced to take charge of counterinsurgency work in Southeast Asia, and with this lesson, the person in charge they sent out will definitely be a general! "Ferdinand expressed regret

The civilian officials who preside over the rebellion will definitely consider politics first, then military, and even for political benefits, even if they know it is not desirable in the military, they will do it.

It's different when they are replaced by military commanders. Their political sensitivity will naturally be different. They will consider issues more militaryly, and their military command capabilities are much stronger.

They will not develop strategies that seem to be very strategic, but cannot actually be accomplished.

The situation in Southeast Asia is now completely eroded, but it has become easier to calm the chaos.

It is a pity that the mobs are mobs. The origins of the rebels are too complicated. They can still work together when facing a common enemy. Once the enemy disappears, they will fight internally.

When the British regrouped and returned, the rebels whose internal conflicts had intensified were no longer a threat.

Unless among them, there is a power group that can persuade everyone ~www.wuxiahere.com~ to integrate everyone and build a new country.

After reunification, they will also have the power to fight the British. After all, the army is not John Bull's strong point. As long as they win this battle, they can truly be independent.

But Ferdinand was not optimistic about them at all, and then the British would take it seriously. The full-fired British Empire was simply not something a mob could deal with.

The Royal Navy blocked the coastline and replaced them with a steady general. Two hundred thousand British troops would be enough to suppress these rebellions.

After all, Southeast Asia has not been able to be fully connected, which is very unfavorable for the insurgents. Under the blockade of the British navy, it is difficult for them to obtain supplies.

After a few battles, the insurgents without ammunition will fall apart.

In this respect, the insurrection army has been able to persist until now, not only has it grown stronger, and Churchill, the commander of the British army, is the first contributor!

"Your Majesty, should we take advantage of the chaos in Southeast Asia to create a little trouble for the British?" Metjeev suggested.

"Well, now is the best opportunity to smuggle weapons. These insurgents should have a lot of money in their hands, and we will help them spend some.

By the way, all the weapons and ammunition sold cannot be produced in Bulgaria, but also mixed with weapons and equipment from other countries, so as not to let the British see the flaws!

Moreover, it is not convenient for us to come out in person this time, hire a few people from outside to do it, let them show up, and try not to show up our people.

As long as the Bulgarian government does not personally participate, even if the British know that we did it, they can only suffer this dumb loss if they cannot find evidence! "Ferdinand thought for a while and said

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Metev replied
