The Sun Never Sets Empire, the foggy capital, the Prime Minister’s Office on Downing Street.
Joseph Chamberlain, the foreign minister of the empire who never sets, is still on the way, but he has already passed through the embassy in the Russian Empire in advance and will report the results of the meeting with the Tsarist Empire to the country.
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin of the Empire immediately convened the top officials of the cabinet and the military to discuss countermeasures.
“Gentlemen, His Excellency the Foreign Secretary’s visit to Mosk did not achieve any success. The Russians were very tough and resolute, not only refusing to withdraw from the Pharaonic country, but also revealing their ambitions for the Suez Canal. Even though the empire claimed to be willing to fight, the Russians refused to retreat. From this point of view, the Russians are going to fight with the empire for the Pharaonic State and the Suez Canal with iron hearts. It would be very difficult for the Empire to secure the canal. Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin looked serious.
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, it seems that we must prepare for the worst, and we must immediately prepare for a fierce conflict, even war, with the Russians in the Pharaonic country!” Chancellor of the Exchequer Winston Chukiel replied.
Stanley Baldwin nodded.
Although he did not want the sun to never set, the empire fell into the war period 01. But he knew that the current Sun Never Set Empire had no other choice.
The Pharaonic Kingdom and the Suez Canal are too important for the Sun Never Set Empire, and the Sun Never Set Empire has no way to give up, and absolutely cannot give up!
“The Army sent in reinforcements to the three infantry divisions in the Canal Zone, and the Marines sent in to reinforce the two Marine brigades in the Canal, set sail as soon as possible.” We need to strengthen our forces in the Pharaonic Kingdom as soon as possible! Stanley Baldwin ordered.
In the absence of diplomatic success, other solutions can be sought.
“Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!” Lord of the Army Sir Evans and Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Bridgeman, both replied.
“In addition, the army mobilizes from now on. Our opponent is the world’s number one army power. Any country that wants to go to war with such a powerful opponent on the ground must be fully prepared. Otherwise, we will face a disaster! Stanley Baldwin reminded.
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Army plans to expand its ten infantry divisions and two armored divisions to deal with the Russian threat. If our troops deployed in the canal are attacked, we must carry out reinforcements in the shortest possible time to prevent the defense line from being breached! War Secretary Sir Evans reported.
Stanley Baldwin nodded, expanding into ten infantry divisions and two armored divisions, but only a few hundred thousand men. He even feared that such a small number of troops would not be enough to deal with the Russians.
After all, the size of the Imperial Russian Army was too large. The huge size of more than two million people is enough to surpass any country in the world in peacetime.
If war really breaks out because of this, then the Sun Never Sets Empire will have to be prepared to mobilize more troops.
“Once the war begins, the navy must blockade the coast of the pharaonic country and prevent the Russians’ troops and supplies from entering the pharaonic country!” Chancellor of the Exchequer Winston Chukiel advised.
“It’s simply impossible! It simply can’t be done. First Sea Lord Count Betty shook his head repeatedly.
“Gentlemen, don’t forget that the kingdom of Libia was a colony of the Russians. Even if we blocked the coastline of the Pharaoh Kingdom, the Russians could transport troops and supplies to the Kingdom of Libia, and then transfer them overland to the Pharaoh Kingdom. Unless we go to war with the Russians, crush their navy, and completely destroy the ability of the Russians to transport people and supplies to the Pharaonic country. In this way, the problem can really be solved! Count Betty explained.
But doing so would undoubtedly run a very big risk. Once there is a war with the Russians, it is very likely to lead to a world war! Even if the sun never sets in the empire, there is no certainty and confidence of victory.
“We can’t do this as a last resort!” Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin said.
The other high-ranking officials of the Sun Never Set Empire also nodded repeatedly.
However, the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet was pinned down by the Russians. We need to send the fleet to the Mediterranean, to reinforce the Mediterranean Fleet! Count Betty suggested.
Although the sun never sets, the Royal Navy of the Empire has the largest number of capital ships in the world. However, the Sun Never Sets Empire has colonies all over the world, and there are too many interests to protect.
Under such circumstances, the Royal Navy of the Empire is also deployed around the world.
It’s just that the main fleet is mainly the home fleet and the Mediterranean fleet, and the main capital ships are also in these two fleets. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
The rest of the Far East Fleet, Tianzhu Fleet, North Atlantic Fleet, South Atlantic Fleet, South Pacific Fleet, etc., have relatively few capital ships.
But even so, it dispersed the power of the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Setting.
So that the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Empire does not have an advantage at all when facing the Mediterranean Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy.
“Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!” Count Betty replied.
Next, the Home Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Set Empire dispatched a group of warships to escort the Imperial Army and Marines to the Canal Zone.
The arrival of a large number of fresh troops has greatly strengthened the military strength of the Sun Never Set Empire in the pharaoh country.
After the reinforcement of 597 three infantry divisions and two marine brigades, the military strength of the Sun Never Set Empire in the Canal Zone has reached four infantry divisions and four marine brigades, and the total strength is as high as more than 80,000 people.
For the Sun Never Sets Empire, this is already a fairly powerful ground force.
Especially for the Pharaonic Kingdom, this was almost a powerful force that they could not face.
Fortunately, the Russian Imperial Army has deployed two infantry divisions in the pharaonic state. At the same time, there are two Marine brigades, all of which add up to more than 60,000 people.
Even if the strength of the troops is at a disadvantage, the overall strength is not necessarily much worse than that of the sun never sets.
Besides, the plan for the rearmies of the Pharaoh Kingdom has already begun.
A large number of recruits have joined the army and are undergoing intensive training.
Once these forces became effective, a strong force of up to ten infantry divisions, an armored brigade and a heavy artillery brigade would give the Pharaoh a great advantage in ground combat power.
At the same time, after the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets was reinforced, it also had a great advantage in the confrontation with the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Imperial Navy.
This has made the situation in the whole region even more tense.
