: 0.081s Scan: 0.107sAfter the Russians agreed to work with Hans to support China in resisting the invasion of the foot basin, the foreign ministers of the two countries jointly issued a joint announcement in Moscow
“Our two countries condemn and express indignation over the foot basin’s flagrant trampling on world peace and invading other countries, and urge the foot basin to immediately withdraw its troops from the Celestial Empire and stop doing things that undermine world peace!”
This statement can be said to be very tough, and it’s just short of pointing at the foot basin’s nose and cursing.
Moreover, Ribbentrop also stated:”We will submit this matter within the League of Nations, and strive to promote the League of Nations’ condemnation and sanctions against the foot basin!”
Hans is one of the five permanent members of the League of Nations at this time, so they can initiate proposals within the League of Nations.
And because there is no veto system within the League of Nations, their proposals cannot be stopped even if they are strongly opposed!
Therefore, once this matter is brought to the attention of the League of Nations, then Foot Basin will be passive!
The League of Nations is very strict about unjust wars that invade other countries. Once it is ruled that this is an invasion war, it will impose sanctions on the initiator of the war, and the sanctions include arms embargoes, cargo embargoes and financial sanctions!
Foot Basin is a country with scarce resources, and their resources need to rely on foreign imports, so shipping is extremely important to them!
If Hans really brought this matter to the attention of the League of Nations, and the League of Nations reached a resolution against him… If they impose additional sanctions, then the Foot Basin will be in trouble!
Although they can guarantee their maritime security with their strong naval strength, and no one will send troops to forcibly block their seaports.
But as long as the League of Nations issues this order, other countries may prohibit the export of resources to the Foot Basin. At that time, no matter how powerful the Foot Basin’s navy is, it will be useless unless they invade those resource exporting countries and use force to force the other party to sell resources to them!
But this is obviously impossible, because the country that currently sells the most resources is the Eagle Sauce. Letting the Foot Basin threaten the Eagle Sauce is completely self-humiliating. Not only is it impossible to achieve, it will even anger the Eagle Sauce and let the Eagle Sauce join the ranks of sanctions against them!
So, when this news came out, the Foot Basin people began to panic!
“It’s too abominable. This matter has nothing to do with Hans. They sold equipment to China and reported this matter to the League of Nations. Why do they have to make things difficult for us?”
In just a few days, the hatred of Hans in the foot basin quickly soared to the extreme. If they hated the Eagle Sauce because the Eagle Sauce was their competitor, then they hated Hans because Hans had repeatedly ruined their good things and made them sick!
“Now it may be because Hans has a lot of interests in the Celestial Empire.
We didn’t communicate with Hans at all before we took action, so Hans doesn’t know whether they can keep their interests after the war.
In this case, they will naturally adopt a policy of resistance to protect their own interests!
“There are smart people inside the Foot Basin.
The attitude of the Hans people is not difficult to analyze.
As long as you think about it from Hans’ perspective, you can know what they are worried about.
However, because of the radical and fanatical militarism in the Foot Basin, people are unwilling to use their brains to think about it, and only know to use force to solve problems.
Little do they know that force is the stupidest way. Many times, there are more clever ways to use, but they have to use force. This is really unwise!
Just as the quarrels within the Foot Basin continued, Tianhuang stood up and expressed his position.
“Did the Army Headquarters issue an order to attack Fengtian?
As soon as Tianhuang opened his mouth, the Army Minister felt very bad!
However, facing Tianhuang and a large group of colleagues, he did not dare to hide or lie.
But they still tried to excuse the young and vigorous factions in front of them. After all, if Tianhuang really wanted to hold these people accountable, their future would be ruined!
“We have already formulated a battle plan. Attacking the Celestial Empire was something we had planned in the first place.……”
Although the other party did not say it directly, Tianhuang still understood it.
The army headquarters did not issue an order to attack, which means that the order to attack Fengtian was the idea of the young soldiers below!
“Humph, you are still making excuses for them. Even if the headquarters has formulated a battle plan, it is still the headquarters that decides when to start the war, not these guys in front!”
Tian Huang was very angry at the attitude of the Minister of the Army. He naturally heard that the other party wanted to make excuses for the young army members.
“”Your Majesty, calm down!”
The Minister of the Army was very frightened. Tianhuang was not just a symbol of imperial power in Jiaoben, they really had real power, so let alone him as the Minister of the Army, even the Prime Minister of Jiaoben had to be respectful when facing Tianhuang!
If they angered Tianhuang, Tianhuang could directly order their removal from office or even put them in jail!
“Yes, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!”
The current emperor Taisho Tianhuang’s health is not very good. If he gets angry at this time, he might even lose his life. So when they saw Taisho Tianhuang getting angry, not only did the army ministers panic, but even the navy was a little panicked!
If Taisho Tianhuang were to appear in front of them, then every one of them would have to commit suicide to apologize!
“Humph, all the guys who took the lead in causing trouble must be taken down!”
Da Zheng Tian Huang calmed down his mood a little, and his attitude was very stern. He felt that the army’s aggressive ideas must be curbed!
If this matter is left alone, then next time someone will definitely follow suit and continue to take such independent actions!
Da Zheng Tian Huang is not a war maniac. Although he also wants to turn Jiaoben into a world-class power, he still advocates developing industry first and accumulating enough strength before expanding outward!
If the army’s action this time is successful, he may not be too opposed, but the key to the problem is that the army failed!
They failed to quickly resolve the battle in a short period of time, defeat the army of the Celestial Empire, and control the entire Northeast region. Instead, they fought hard with the other side, causing the Jiaoben government to be in a difficult situation!
After paying a huge price, they are somewhat unwilling to let them retreat now, because the price they paid is too high, with more than 10,000 soldiers killed and wounded, but nothing was gained. This is a huge blow to the entire Jiaoben government and the prestige of Tian Huang. A big blow!
However, if they do not retreat, their casualties will continue to rise as the battle continues, and with the main force of the Northeast Army returning to support them, they can only continue to send troops to the Celestial Empire to expand the scale of the war if they want to win the war.
If there is no condemnation from other countries in the world and interference from the League of Nations, it is not a problem to do so. Although the current national strength of the Foot Basin is not as good as that of the traditional European powers, their advantages compared to the Celestial Empire are still very obvious, so as long as they are determined and continue to increase their troops, they will definitely be able to take over the entire Northeast!
However, after Hans and Mao Xiong stood up to oppose and wanted to bring this matter to the League of Nations, the situation was different!
If they continue to attack, the League of Nations is very likely to impose sanctions on the invasion war they launched, and such sanctions are unbearable for the Foot Basin!
Although the fat meat in the Northeast of the Celestial Empire is very tempting, the Foot Basin is the most important foundation. If the foundation of the country is affected by a piece of fat meat, it will not be worth the loss!
“Yes, yes, we will definitely deal with those guys seriously!”
The Minister of the Army could only admit defeat at this time. He did not dare to continue to go against Taisho Tianhuang. If he angered Tianhuang, once Tianhuang was angry to death, he would have to commit suicide!
“Humph, you must also control your subordinates in the future. Whether to go to war or not is something that can only be decided by the country, not by these low-level officers. It is normal for the country to command the army. What the hell is it to let the army drag the country around?”
Taisho Tianhuang’s words were a warning to the army. The army has always wanted to expand abroad to gain more benefits and fight against the navy!
“Yes, we will definitely reflect on it!”
The Minister of War was sweating profusely, and he just kept nodding his head, not daring to refute any of the
“The attitude of the people on the other side of the sun never sets���How? Haven’t they expressed their views yet?”
Seeing the Army Minister’s obedient appearance, Taisho Tianhuang didn’t want to waste time on him any more, so he asked another question that concerned him. As an ally of the Foot
