Chapter 201 The Tranquility Before the Storm (6)

"Old Zheng, touch your conscience, is it that I brought you or you can't wait to come? After receiving the order, you were so happy like a child. Now I blame me for being on my head?" Guo Yaofeng mercilessly exposed Zheng Zhaofeng's lies.

"Hehe, am I in a hurry? We are doing this war chess all day long, so there is no real battle. We have long wanted to see how powerful our old enemy is."

"You think too much. The first thing you play is not us, but European countries that don't know the truth. We have to watch a big show before we can make a debut. It's useless to be anxious. The strategic direction will not change because of you."

Gu Ming was also speechless at his impatient partner. Since the construction of the Wangxi Military Base started, his Sixth Army was the first to come here, and the three members of the Yingzhou fleet arrived impatiently.

“Report, African news.”

Gu Ming took the report from the staff, and after reading it, he handed it to Zheng Zhaoqin, who had long been unable to hold back, and said: "At present, the vanguards of European countries have arrived in their respective colonies. According to the information sent back by the Ministry of Security there, European countries have placed the main attack direction on the west coast of Africa. The east coast is too far away from them, so there is no arrangement for troops to attack for the time being. Therefore, they have given up the colonies on the east coast of Africa, and North Africa is more defensive. European countries will be based on their own judgments, Banjul, Libreville, and Cape Town, South Africa.

The attack on the inland African territory in three directions is unknown at present, but I think the total number of troops will never be small. As we know from the Empire, they have purchased millions of flintlock guns and various artillery guns, and hundreds of armored warships. I believe that such large-scale military expenditure has emptied their colonial accumulation for nearly a hundred years. This may be good news for us, which not only increases the income of the Empire, but also adds a big trouble to our enemies. If we want to face us, we must first defeat the European countries that are standing in front of them."

Song Ke came to the sand table and pointed to the main attack position initiated by European countries. After thinking about it, he said: "It seems that there are smart people in Europe. We learned from the hard reconnaissance of security personnel that the enemy's capital is located near Lake Chad, and they also judged this from various signs. It seems that we cannot underestimate anyone. Although their equipment falls on us, their strategies and tactics may not be inferior to us."

"It is true. The first thing they thought about was to ensure the security of West African colonies, which was urgently needed for them to consume the national treasury in order to purchase military supplies. Then they attacked the African inland from three directions at the same time. If the opponent's strength is average, they may really succeed."

Tong Yi looked at the sand table and said in agreement.

"I am not optimistic about their cooperation. Britain and France have a century of hatred. They will not cooperate sincerely because of temporary interests. I am afraid that they will not be in harmony when they are in harmony. Don't talk about their cooperation and combat. The possibility of mutual shattering is even greater."

Lu Xiacheng did not have much hope for how much damage and losses European countries could cause to the Demon God Empire. At that time, it would still rely on the empire's army to take the stage in person.

"I believe that the top leaders of their country will also think of this. For the sake of African interests, they can only hope that they can cooperate as much as possible and do their best to cause damage to the Demon God Empire. We didn't expect them to play the lead role."

Gu Ming was helpless when he thought of this. In this continent of Europe, dozens of countries gathered together, and various countries were connected with each other and war continued. The kings of each country could involve the relationship between relatives. The internal situation was too complicated. It was a difficult thing for them to figure it out by themselves, and it was even more impossible for outsiders to complete. I wanted them to do their best to treat foreign enemies in unity, but it was unrealistic to think about it.

Jin Lian also agreed with this point, saying: "Don't expect too many of these countries. What we need to consider now is whether the 180,000 people of the Sixth Army and the 120,000 most of the main force of the Navy and Marine Corps Army is enough for the initial use. I believe everyone knows that Africa's population is much larger than that of the empire. If they have too many armed people, the development of the situation may be beyond our expectations. The temporary increase in troops may catch us off guard."

"This is definitely possible. If they cannot be restricted to the African continent in the early stage, the consequences will be unbearable. The Ministry of Defense has taken this into consideration. The First Army will send a division to defend Yingzhou, and the remaining troops of the Marine Corps will defend the major islands. The remaining troops of the Sixth Army will stay in the Americas. Several other armies may come to Yingzhou or Mingzhou City to stand by. In the future, according to the development of the situation, flexibly mobilize major armies. The Navy's fleets may only have frigates left, and the others will be transferred to the front line to participate in the war."

Gu Ming explained to everyone, looking at the sand table in front of him, and asked the staff officer beside him: "How are the interactions between the ministries on the Saudi Arabian Peninsula? Is there any news about this?"

"Reporting to the commander, according to the news from the Arabian Peninsula, the arms trade there has been booming in recent times. Except for the poor small troops, other major and central tribes have been equipped with flintlock guns and artillery we sell. The number of artillery is very small. According to the observers of the Ministry of Security, we should not have too much hope for them. Although their cavalry can rely on their temporary courage, they may collapse in the face of the semi-modern empire of demons."

Gu Ming nodded and asked again: "Where is the Ottoman Türkiye?"

"Commander, the situation of the Ottoman side is not ideal. They welcome all kinds of weapons and equipment we sell and purchase a lot of them, but they are very strict in their defense. The Central and Northeast China has clearly told us that we do not welcome people to enter, although their control ability is also weak."

Zheng Zhaoqin waved his hand and asked the staff to go down first, and said with a smile: "It seems that the empire does not have any good reputation in the world. Look at them guarding us like a wolf. Haven't you said it? The territory of the Chinese Empire has expanded to this point, and it seems that no one believes 100% what we say."

Tong Yi rolled his eyes: "They are not stupid. Look at the territorial expansion speed of the empire in recent years. Which country can compare to us? It is their right to guard us. But don't they know that if the empire really wants to expand its territory, they can guard us. Don't they know that some people are willing to contribute to the empire now?"

"Ha ha………"
