Tehran in March had a pleasant climate. However, the current Persian king, Muzaffaldinsha, was in panic. The British had already evacuated from Persia last month. Logically, Muzaffaldinsha
It should be happy, after all, Britain was a colonist, and they kept plundering Persian wealth. Even the king Muzaffaldinsha was just a puppet supported by the British. If the British retreated, he could obtain it.
Persia has control. But in fact, this is not the case.
Before Russia declined, Russia and Britain were already competing for Persia. As a result, the Russians controlled the northern part of Persia, while the British controlled the southern part, leaving only a buffer zone in the middle, which,
It is also where the Persian royal family can make the decision. Finally, Russia was defeated by China and its national strength was greatly damaged. And Muzaffardinsha also drove Russian forces out of Persia with the support of Britain. Faced with China's opposition
Muzaffardinsha also adopted a tough attitude in Persia. However, he never expected that the powerful British Empire was defeated again by China and even withdrew from Persia, which made Muzaffardinsha panic.
Don't be the whole day!
In Persia, many forces against him have appeared. If it were before, he would have ordered a suppression. But now, who knows whether there is Chinese support behind these forces? The British withdrew from Persia.
The Chinese invasion of Persia is just around the corner. China can even defeat Britain. It is even more impossible for a small country like Persia to fight against China.
Muzaffaldinsha had thought of compromising with China, but the Chinese side seemed very angry about his previous actions and demanded Muzaffaldinsha to step down, which made Muzaffaldinsha unable to
accept.
Muzaffardinsha was not a promising monarch. He was the fifth king of the Persian Kazar Dynasty. He was the son of Nasserdinsha and was appointed crown prince. In 1861, he served as the governor of Azerbaijan.
During his 35 years as crown prince, he always pursued the sensuality and did not care about state affairs. After assuming the throne in 1896, he knew nothing about the government. At that time, Persia was facing a fiscal crisis, and the government's annual output far exceeded its income. In order to make up for the fiscal deficit,
Loaning from Russia was a political concession. It was extremely unpopular. After the loan, he used the money for several luxurious trips to Europe, which aroused strong opposition from the people and demanded that constitutional restrictions be imposed on his actions.
During his reign, Persia's semi-colonization deepened. Now, China's upcoming invasion of Persia made him even more unable to deal with it.
In early March, two infantry divisions of the Fifth Army of the Chinese Army entered northern Persia from Central Asia along the Caspian Sea. The Persian army chose to resist the invasion of the squadron. However, just three days later, nearly 100,000 Persian troops were in
The northern part of Persia was defeated by two Chinese infantry divisions. The losses were heavy and they had to retreat to South Africa. The failure of the front line further intensified the contradictions within Persia.
On March 9, Prince Ali, the son of Muzaffaldinsha, launched a court coup with the support of Persian ministers. He overthrew Muzaffaldinsha's rule and became the sixth term of the Qazar dynasty.
The king, namely Mohammed Alisha!
After Mohamed Alisha ascended the throne, he immediately sent a special envoy to the squadron in the north and surrendered to China in full. At the same time, he ordered the Persian army to stop resisting. On March 15, the 66th Division of the Chinese Army entered Tehran. As a result,
Persia entered the period of Chinese colonial rule. According to the protection treaty signed by China and Mohammed Alisha, Persia became China's protector. The Chinese enjoyed a series of privileges in Persia, and at the same time, the mining power of mines in Persia was also
It belongs to China. The 73rd Division of the Chinese Army entered the province of Khuzestan in southern Persia. At this point, Persia was completely under China's control.
In addition to controlling Persia, the two divisions that China entered Persia also bear the heavy responsibility of invading the Ottoman Empire. China has also coveted the Mesopotamian Basin ruled by the Governor of Baghdad in the Ottoman Empire for a long time. Britain has completely withdrawn from the coast of the Persian Gulf.
While defending the eastern Afghanistan and India, no country can stop China's expansion in the Middle East. The old and weak Ottoman Empire has no ability. However, China's ally, Germany, is also very good at the Ottoman Empire.
After all, Germany made a request to build the Baghdad Railway. Germany and formally joined the expansion of the Middle East, which made China very dissatisfied. However, compared with China, which already occupied a large area of the Middle East, Germany was seriously in a serious manner.
It is almost impossible to take away the interests of China under China's nose!
On March 19, Wang Yuze held a monthly regular imperial meeting at Xinhua Palace to discuss major issues at this stage. All the important officials of the cabinet and military giants will attend this meeting.
First, Cabinet Prime Minister Yang Hua reported to Wang Yuze on the government’s work over the past month. Overall, the war in the Middle East did not have much impact on China’s economy. Although military expenditures and pensions for casualties,
Together, the total war compensation of 300 million yuan can still be fully supported. The remaining 100 million yuan has also been invested in infrastructure construction. The entire China, with the continuous industrial system,
Perfect, still in rapid development!
Wang Yuze was very satisfied with the rapid development of the empire. China has a large population and its GDP is already the best in the world. The industrial output value is also comparable to that of the United States. However, the average person is very low and far from being able to do so.
Compared with the Western powers, China must further accelerate its development. In addition to bringing large tracts of land to the empire, the resources from various places will also become a guarantee for the empire's development and a huge population.
, it will also promote the rapid development of the empire. The reason why Britain and France, the old colonial powers, was developing rapidly during the industrial recession was because they controlled the huge colonial market. In their colonies, other countries'
All commodities are suppressed, and even if the quality of the country is not very good, they can still be popular. This is also the reason why Germany is dissatisfied with Britain and France. Germany's industrial strength is developing rapidly and requires a large market.
The colonies of Britain and France have kept German goods out! In order to change this situation, Germany has no other choice except war!
Afterwards, Xiong Wu, Chief of Staff, also introduced the situation of the Imperial Team at this stage. After the end of the Middle East War, the troops sent in the Middle East have begun to return to China one after another. The Navy Indian Ocean Fleet will also return to the Singapore base for rest
, and the captured three battleships will also be sent to the Beihai Shipyard for repair and modification. After that, these three battleships will join the Chinese naval operations. The battleship "Bai Qi" also returned to the Qingdao home port of the Turkish fleet.
After the battlecruiser of the 'Meng Tian's' sinking, the only battlecruiser left in the Turkish fleet was left to support the facade. Fortunately, the 'Jianghe-class' heavy cruisers have begun to be put into service one after another. The main gun caliber of the 'Jianghe-class' heavy cruisers
Although it is only 210 mm, it has strong firepower. After using a new armor-piercing bomb, it can pose a threat to the battleships of various countries at a distance of 8,000 meters. At the same time, the 'Jianghe-class' heavy cruiser has strong firepower and 9 main guns
They are all rapid-fire cannons, which can fire three rounds of volleys every minute. With such fierce firepower, even if you encounter the imperial battleship, it will be enough to compete with one or two!
"The current expansion of the empire in the Middle East has come to an end in addition to continuing to infiltrate the Ottoman Empire. The expansion of the empire towards Europe and Africa has aroused the vigilance of European powers. In order to avoid stimulating them, the empire has not yet reached a conclusion.
Action needs to be suspended. However, expansion in other directions requires acceleration. According to the treaty signed by us with the French, Guadeloupe already belongs to our country. The Navy will send fleets and marines to settle in and build there.
Become an important base for the empire in the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea!” Wang Yuze said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The military giants all took the orders.
"Your Majesty, just received the news that the Americans have stated that they will increase their investment in the Panama Canal and prepare to complete the construction of the Panama Canal in five years, and strive to start navigation in mid-1908!" General Wei Zhiyong, Director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, reported
road.
"Panama Canal? It seems that the Americans have begun to prepare for war!" Wang Yuze said. The Panama Canal in history was not opened until 1914. However, the United States at that time did not face a huge threat like it is now.
The West Coast is now under the threat of China's Pacific Fleet. The last time the US Navy joined the Mediterranean Navy, the main ships of the Pacific Fleet were deterred and patroled the West Coast of the United States, which scared the Americans very much. This may be because the US made up its mind.
Why speed up the excavation of the Panama Canal!
The importance of the Panama Canal is self-evident. After the canal was opened, the main battleship of the US Navy, from Norfolk military port, could only reach the San Diego military port in the Pacific Ocean. In this way, China's original attitude towards the United States
The requirement that the United States must not have a displacement of more than 10,000 tons in the Pacific Ocean will have no effect. Once a war breaks out between China and the United States, the main force of the US Navy will be able to reach the west coast from the east coast to defend the western coast of the United States!
