Chapter 709 East African Guerrilla Warfare

The news about the 1,000 German cavalry crossing the Rhine Demilitarized Zone was widely publicized and reported in the country.

France also knows that it can't hide it, but they have already thought of an excuse, that is, in order to maintain peace in Europe, they don't want to take the lead in provoking war.

And he brought in his allies and called his younger brother to condemn Germany together, as if this would make the wolf of Germany obedient.

But the more frequently they denounced and crusaded in the newspapers, the more the little dwarf was sure that the French were a bunch of paper tigers.

This made the dwarf more daring and decided to speed up the pace of external expansion.

The second expansion of the German Defense Forces began, directly expanding from 300,000 to 2 million. The little man was anxiously waiting for the reaction of Britain and France.

As long as the French and British troops in the Rhine demilitarized zone make moves, he will immediately retreat obediently.

However, the performance of Britain and France stunned the dwarfs.

Protests, condemnations, sanctions, and then endless discussions and meetings in the League of Nations, let the little ones wake up laughing at night from their dreams.

The original fear began to shatter, and Britain and France behaved like high-quality logs, filling the fire of ambition in the dwarf's heart one by one, making it burn more vigorously.

On March 7, the little man brazenly announced the abolition of the "Locarno Convention", ignored the Treaty of Versailles, and directly sent 30,000 German troops into the Rhine Demilitarized Zone, and established fortifications along the western border of Germany.

The response of Britain and France is still sanctions and condemnation on paper.

Even now, the cabinets of Britain and France are still pursuing a policy of appeasement. Last year, the trusted Prime Minister Baldwin is a member of the Conservative Party. He takes a moderate line and believes that as long as the little man is appeased, even a war can be controlled.

The Baldwin government also passed the controversial "Government of India Act", which was protested and criticized by the Indian side.

They have brought a lot of trouble. For the current British, the importance of the Indian colony is self-evident.

Hijacking the east of the Suez Canal, the largest source of raw materials and dumping of products, a large number of British troops are stationed in India, effectively relieving domestic pressure.

The Indian-British Allied Forces stationed in India is also the core of the British Far East, representing its political status and interests in the Far East.

India's huge population base is also an important recruitment site for the UK. Once a war breaks out, they can immediately pull millions of troops from India.

If it causes civil strife in India at this time, it will definitely make things worse for Britain, which has a bad economy.

Moreover, how can Britain, which has lost India, be called the British Empire.

The situation in France is even worse. Since the First World War, the French cabinet government has been changed every few months just like temporary workers.

Romantic French people are all pursuing ease and pleasure. The experience of World War I made Dadaism rampant, and some civilians even took the initiative to destroy defense facilities.

The military put all their focus on building the Maginot Line. They firmly believed that with this "solid as a mountain" line of defense, no one could break into the country.

The tragedy of World War I must never happen again, and the war must be kept outside the French mainland. Conservative ideas doomed their end.

Perhaps at this time they still don't understand the saying that the best defense is offense.

"Hey, it's like a pig teammate." Li Zitao shook his head with a sneer on his face when he saw the righteous words and sharp criticism in the newspaper.

Recently, the international newspapers and periodicals are very lively, the war in East Africa, the gunpowder-flavored confrontation in Spain, the repeated provocations of Germany and the peaceful speeches of Britain and France.

The United States, which practiced 'isolationism', is now the most calm spectator.

An attitude of "you go on, anyway, I'll just watch and don't say anything", and there are also some people who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, shouting all day long, "Why don't you go to war?" and other remarks.

Peace organizations are running around, but the League of Nations has attracted much attention during this period, and people hope that it can produce its original effect.

But how many people know

This institution was originally an 'empty shell' in the hands of Britain and France, which was completely meaningless.

"Is the delivery going well?" Putting down the newspaper, Li Zitao looked at the puffing Wang Dagou. His figure was a little fat, and it seemed that the big girl's food was good.

"It's a serious business, what's not going well." Wang Dagou said with a puff of smoke and a smile.

The arms trade with the country as the unit has become a serious business in his hands, which was unimaginable in the past.

"Let those who lean on us continue to put pressure on the government, Poland, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, France... Forget it, the French are so poor that they are about to sell their pants."

Thinking of the situation in France, Li Zitao has no hope for them.

However, the future of the Los Angeles City Bank-Luxembourg branch needs to be carefully considered. Perhaps the construction of the Swiss branch should be accelerated and put on the daily routine.

"Isn't East Africa playing well?" Wang Dagou smiled and said with a cigar in his mouth.

The Italian-Egyptian war in East Africa exceeded everyone's expectations. Two months ago, after Italy sent more troops and sent air force and tank regiments to join the war, the Egyptian army retreated steadily.

All countries have made speculations about the war, and it is estimated that it will end in 3 to 5 months. No one expected that at this time, the Egyptian army would give up resistance and break up into pieces to start a guerrilla war with the Italian army.

The enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and advances. The troops stationed in the city are harassed every day. If a soldier goes out to have some fun and leave alone, his body will definitely appear in a dirty stinking ditch the next day.

Compared with foreign invaders, the Egyptian army is more familiar with this land, and can get more help and support from the people.

When a small group of troops is dispatched, they will be caught in the trap by the opponent, and Bono is greatly troubled by several losses.

If it is dispatched on a large scale, even the enemy's buttocks will not be visible.

It seems that the entire land of East Africa is covered by the enemy's spies and eyeliners, and they are like blind men whose eyes are covered by fog. They have no energy but can't even see the enemy.

The strength of the Italian army was constantly being consumed on this land, and Mussolini issued cruel orders for this, and massacres occurred in major cities.

Thousands of people were treated as 'spies', and their bodies were dropped on wooden beams, city walls, squares and other prominent places in an attempt to suppress local resistance.

Such a move really worked, and soon several guerrillas were betrayed and suppressed. Under the temptation of money and the threat of death, some ignorant natives became the eyes and guides of the Italian army.

"General, we have received news that someone will raid our arsenal tonight." In the temporary headquarters, a colonel was reporting to Bono.
