After returning to the Li Mansion in the capital, Li Ningyu naturally had to chat with his parents for a while, but neither of his parents had the intention to educate him. After all, Li Ningyu was different from the past, and he had already married a wife and had a baby.
However, Mother Li could not help but look at Li Ningyu from head to toe with love, for fear that he was missing some parts. At this time, Li Ningyu couldn't say anything, but at this moment, something helped him out.
"Young Master, there is an urgent message from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"
Kong Xiaoping ran in panting. It seemed that the matter was not small, otherwise Kong Xiaoping would not have acted like this according to his calm age and character. Seeing that Li Ningyu seemed to have big things to deal with, his father Li Wei waved his hand and said: "
Go ahead! First things first!".
"Yes! Father!" Li Ningyu followed his father Li Wei and bowed apologetically to the two elders, then led Kong Xiaoping out of the hall and went to the study. Duan Tong obediently continued to talk with the two elders.
After arriving in the study, Li Ningyu took the telegram from Kong Xiaoping and looked at it carefully. There were not many words on it, only a short paragraph.
"Two squadrons of battleships and cruisers of the French High Seas Fleet weighed anchor and headed for the South China Sea! The Indian Army simultaneously advanced to the China-Myanmar border area, about 15 army divisions!"
After seeing such a line, Li Ningyu knew that the French and the British must have reached some agreement behind the scenes, and a military confrontation was inevitable. However, there are no troops that can be mobilized immediately in the Far East. Even if Beijing is sent
It is not realistic for the Northeast Field Army to go to Vietnam. After all, the distance is 3,000 kilometers, and the nearest place is to mobilize troops from Taiwan and Ryukyu.
"Xiaoping, please check how many armies are available in Taiwan and Ryukyu now!"
"Yes! Let me check!" After Li Ningyu's order was issued, Kong Xiaoping immediately left and went to the command vehicle to get the confidential documents of military deployment, while Li Ningyu thought about it carefully.
The French High Seas Fleet, the British Home Fleet, and the German High Seas Fleet can be called the world's three largest naval fleets. They are the number one fleet in terms of tonnage, number of ships, and main battleships. Currently, France already has
If an Asian fleet is combined with the High Seas Fleet, the situation at sea will become even more severe, and the Far East Navy will face a major crisis.
As for the army, according to the configuration of the British Indian Army, one division is three regiments, about 6,000 soldiers, and 90,000 people in fifteen divisions. It is estimated that these are the maximum number of people that India can currently mobilize. However, the British have not moved the fleet
They were mobilized to explain that they just wanted to put pressure on the Far East to land in Vietnam. However, Li Ningyu would never give in to this military action in Vietnam, because both in terms of strategy and future layout, the Far East needed
Establish an absolute scaffolding point in Asia.
But it's strange that the Yankee didn't move at all. Could it be that he couldn't move even if the enemy couldn't stand him?
Actually no! It’s just that the United States currently has almost no power that it can mobilize around the world. The Asian fleet is trapped in the Bohai Bay, and the Far East is on the other side of the Philippines. It is because of these restrictions that the United States only declares war on the surface but does not move its troops. The United States can do this, Li Ning
Yu was very happy, because he didn't want to start a war in many places at the same time, as that would stretch the battle line too long.
But be careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship, and you will never let up your guard against the Yankees. Seeing the lack of naval strength, the U.S. Congress is discussing a military expansion plan, that is, within ten years, the United States will build
There are 85 new main ships with a total tonnage of up to 600,000 tons. However, this plan is too huge and the construction cost will be 250 million pounds, so it has been discussed for a long time.
Kong Xiaoping was not slow. In less than a minute, he brought the military deployment documents. Li Ningyu opened it with his own hands and immediately issued an order after looking at it: "Order! The Commander-in-Chief of Far East Taiwan, within one day, will send three orders from Taiwan."
Among the garrison armies, deploy one garrison army to support the Eighth Field Army!".
"Order! The South China Sea Fleet, completely blockade the South China Sea. Once the French High Seas Fleet is discovered, immediately notify the naval command and do not attack first. The entire South China Sea Sea Wolf submarine formation will be dispatched to set up defenses along the coast of Vietnam. As long as enemy ships are found, they can attack immediately!"
.
"Yes!" Li Ningyu spoke very quickly, but Kong Xiaoping still recorded all the objections. Then he looked at Li Ningyu and understood that there were no other orders for the time being, so he immediately turned around and went to send the report.
The Far East Navy has a total of six submarine formations. The two formations of Sea Lion and Sea Horse of the Yellow Sea Fleet, in conjunction with the main fleet, are on standby in the Yellow Sea. After all, there are more than 80 ships from various countries there. It is still difficult to deal with the Yellow Sea Fleet alone, so Li Ningyu did not
It means to mobilize the two formations of sea lions and seahorses.
The Far East Fleet and Tsarist Russia's Northern Fleet faced off in the Korean Strait, and the Shark formations were naturally on alert, including the Sea Snakes formation in Somalia, the SEALs formation in Hawaii, and the Sea Wolf formation of the South China Sea Fleet. However, Li Ningyu definitely did not expect that the French would completely
The High Seas Fleet has been transferred, which makes it difficult for Li Ningyu to make arrangements for a while, so he must now quickly reach strategic cooperation with Germany, so that he can use the German Asian Fleet to contain the French Navy Fleet.
But there is still one troublesome thing, and that is the negotiation with the Qing government.
According to the early alliance between the Far East and the Qing government, the Far East would help the Qing government resist the Eight-Power Allied Forces. Judging from the past, this matter has achieved results. It only needs to repel the coalition forces in Tianjin City, and Germany is willing to follow
The main reason for forming an alliance in the Far East is that the Far East is in Asia and has a strong army base and the foundation of several major sectors.
In this way, it can help Germany contain Tsarist Russia's military power on land at any time, and the relations between various countries are in a mess, just put them together. When deciding anything, you must first analyze what it can bring to you.
Such benefits, in fact, the one Li Ningyu wants to cooperate with most is the UK. After all, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages of cooperating with the world's most powerful country like the UK. At the same time, the UK's power in Asia is many times higher than that of Germany, and it can provide military services to the Far East on land and sea at the same time.
Huge help.
There is still a quarrel with Germany in Africa. In addition, Li Ningyu knows everything about Germany's future trend, but he has no choice because the British are afraid of the current strength of the Far East and do not want it to continue to grow bigger.
Some things require resolute resistance and struggle in the face of any oppression.
