Chapter 1065
After the victory news from Nanfei reached Berlin, Mainz felt relieved. Rommel did not disappoint him. He fought very well in this battle. He used surprise attacks to solve the two most powerful military forces in Nanfei at the lowest cost and the fastest speed at one time, laying the foundation for the German army to completely control Nanfei!
Money can move people’s hearts. Nanfei has the largest gold mine in the world. It is naturally a place that many people are jealous of. If there is not enough military strength to defend the fruits of victory, the gold mine here will definitely be coveted by others!
Rommel’s army won a great victory, and its own strength suffered almost no loss. In this case, if other forces still want to get involved in Nanfei, they have to weigh their own weight!
However, winning the battle is only one of the reasons why he is happy. Another reason is that controlling Nanfei will make the plan of the sun never setting on South Asia more difficult!
Without the gold support of Nanfei, it would be very difficult for them to accumulate their original capital. Industrialization requires a lot of capital investment in the initial stage. The initial stage of industrialization in various countries has accumulated for dozens or even hundreds of years. It is because this process requires a lot of capital. Countries cannot come up with so much money in a short time, so it has accumulated for so long!
Moreover, this is based on the situation that European countries colonize and plunder colonial materials all over the world.
Although the sun never sets still has a large number of overseas colonies, their homeland has fallen, their own strength has greatly decreased, and the wealth they originally accumulated has been looted, and their control over the original colonies has also rapidly declined!
In this case, the original accumulation stage of their industrialization is very difficult in itself!
Because they are in a world war, there is not enough time for them to develop with peace of mind.
The huge military pressure forces them to develop in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, once the German army is at the gates of the city, if they do not develop and establish a strong industrialized sun, they will become fish on the chopping board and be slaughtered!
Therefore, the sun never sets should be very anxious at this time!
……
Mainz was right. After learning that the British army heading south was completely destroyed and Southern Philippines had fallen into the hands of the German army, the ministers and parliamentarians fell into collective silence at the British Cabinet meeting. The meeting was completely silent and no one spoke!
At this time, no one knew what to say. Everyone was hit hard by this bad news!
“This is really a case of adding insult to injury!”
After a long time, Chukir sighed first, his words were unwilling, helpless, and there was also a trace of despair that he could not turn the tide!
How could he not despair?
The current situation is too desperate for them, okay?
The German military operations in North America have come to an end, and the big meat shield, Eagle Sauce, is about to collapse.
Originally, because the Third Reich focused all its energy on Eagle Sauce, they had a slight chance to breathe, but now that Eagle Sauce is about to be finished, the German army’s attention will return to them again!
South Asia is far from Europe, but can it be as far as North America?
North America is so far away, didn’t the German army still cross the ocean to destroy them?
So, as long as the German army ends the battle in North America and gives them the opportunity to concentrate their strength, then the sun never sets will definitely not escape this disaster!
For Japan As far as the British government is concerned, the current situation is a dead end. They have no chance of turning the tables!
Not only is there no chance of turning the tables, they don’t even have the capital to drag it on!
Their fate is now completely in the hands of others. The German army can come to destroy them whenever they want, and the British government is completely powerless!
If Nanfei was still in their hands, they would still have a glimmer of hope of turning the tables with Nanfei’s gold, South Asia’s land area and population size.
But now Nanfei is gone, and South Asia’s industrial base is so poor. If they want to develop rapidly, they need to invest a lot of money, and the British government has no money at this time! Without money, how can they develop industrialization?
Therefore, the loss of Nanfei is a fatal blow to them, pulling away their last straw!
“The first half of the year’s gold from Nanfei was originally planned to be shipped over last month, but Nanfei suddenly lost contact with us last month, and there has been no news of this batch of gold. If our army could regain control of Nanfei, we should be able to find this batch of gold and search it by the way, and perhaps find more gold to ship back!”
“But now, because of the defeat, not only can we not count on future gold, but also the batch of gold that was not delivered in the first half of the year!”
The Minister of Industry complained to Chukir with a sad face.
As the Minister of Industry, he has been shouldering a heavy task since the British Empire moved to South Asia.
Although the British Empire was once the first country in the world to enter the industrialization stage, they are experienced in the development of industry.
However, it took the British Empire nearly a hundred years to enter the door of industrialization, and during this period, it experienced a series of events such as the enclosure movement, defeating the Windmill Kingdom and the Duck Kingdom to become the overlord of the sea, which greatly accelerated their development.
In the movement of dividing up colonies around the world, they gained huge benefits and interests from overseas, and only then did they successfully complete the road of industrialization.
But Yes, the current situation is completely different from the past. It is almost impossible for them to develop according to their previous experience and follow the old path.
In this case, the only way is to spend money, crazy money!
However, although India in South Asia has a large population, the country is too poor. The British Empire cannot squeeze much wealth from the Indians, which makes it unrealistic for them to rely on collecting taxes from the Indians to accumulate funds to complete industrialization.
