Chapter 785 The Situation in Eastern Europe
Africa.
German East Africa, Tanzania.
The German African Legion is being mobilized, and the British also mobilized 29 divisions and more than 600 tanks in Kenya to carry out the necessary defense.
The entire territory of Ethiopia has been occupied by Italy. Mussolini ordered the forced conscription, and soon 200,000 people were armed.
At the same time, there were a steady stream of males who were forcibly pulled out of their simple dwellings,
Simple civilian clothes, equipped with 6.5mm caliber rifles that are being phased out by the Italian army, if the rifle in your hand is replaced by a long gun, it will be a medieval cannon fodder slave army.
But even so, the threat to the British colonies is still great. It will take days to kill 200,000 pigs standing up, let alone 200,000 pigs.
After Ethiopia was captured, the seaport of Somalia, which belonged to Britain and France, was completely surrounded by Italy, and at the same time, it was on guard with Germany across Kenya.
If Germany and Italy launch an attack and cut off support from Egypt and Sudan from the Kidepo Valley from east to west, Kenya and Uganda will fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness.
The two sides frequently mobilized troops in the colonies, making the situation in Africa, which had just ended the Italian-Egyptian war, mysterious and urgent.
All European countries are ready to go to war, and the general mobilization in the Czech Republic is still going on. A large number of men volunteered to join the army, determined to defend their homeland and resist the invasion of evil.

Los Angeles, Santa Barbara.
Osborn's cutting-edge medical laboratory, since the birth of 'penicillin', this private laboratory has attracted worldwide attention.
Every day, countless people and teams come here to investigate, study, and discuss cooperation.
Just recently, the mayor of New York City led his team to the laboratory to discuss a major cooperation project.
New York City Health and Hospital System, which is the earliest public hospital established in the United States, has a huge medical system.
It is the first choice for middle-class and poor people in New York City to see a doctor, because compared with private hospitals with better conditions, its charges will not make patients directly bankrupt.
Of course, its performance is not satisfactory.
Not only because of its large and bloated management system, the lack of sufficient funds, effective management, equipment, drug donations, and complicated sources of patients are all reasons for its confusion.
Now, Ferrero Guardia, who was successfully re-elected as mayor of New York, is targeting the medical system after completing the renovation of Central Park.
"I know Osborne has a lot of interns from top university medical schools and HH would love to offer them a job if they could."
Ferrero wants to win more, such as the advanced technology mastered by Osborne, effective drugs from Pfizer, and experienced researchers in the laboratory.
There is the essential financial assistance, but...he needs to take it step by step.
"Mr. Mayor, I understand this very well, but where is the competitiveness of HH?" Mike, who is the director of the laboratory, is now able to deal with such things with ease.
HH wants to reach a cooperation with Osborn to get advanced treatment plan, effective and expensive medicine... Fund sponsorship, why?
With its bloated and useless system, ineffective departments and ignorant and greedy board of directors, or the poor who can't cure their diseases?
Sorry, although I sympathize with their situation, but Mike is not God, he can't save everyone, and neither can Osborn.
If the other party just wants to donate, Mike will generously provide him with a five-figure check, which is enough to save nearly a hundred families from being broken.
But more... He should go to the big boss, not come to Osborne to play the emotional card.
Ferrero, who was rejected by Mike, was not discouraged. After visiting Osborne and having a deeper and direct understanding of it, he took the team back to New York that day.
"Help me make an appointment with Charlie. If possible, I would like to treat him to dinner tomorrow at noon...Do you have any good recommendations in Chinatown?"
Back in the office, Ferrero asked the secretary for advice, he didn't understand Chinatown very well,
‘Maybe I should find a time and give a few speeches? '
"Jin Jiang Hotel, the food there is great, I went there with my friends." Seeing that the boss didn't have any orders, the secretary closed the door and backed out.

War, war!
The arrival was unexpected. When no one expected it, Germany brazenly launched an attack on the Czech Republic on the grounds of taking over the Sudetenland region and stabilizing regional security.
Having acquired Austria and the Sudetenland, Germany has become the dominant power in Eastern Europe.
The disintegration of the Czech Republic is inevitable, and the Franco-Czech alliance exists in name only.
But the French are not reconciled. They don't want to just lose the important ally of the Czech Republic, especially when the rise of Germany has become a fact.
It's just that the UK doesn't agree with it that way. Due to political factors, the UK considers more.
After the rise of Germany, the first thing to deal with is France. The land of the two countries is connected, and there are various conflicts of interest after World War I and after.
Coupled with the Soviet Union in the east, even if a war does start, it will not harm the interests of the United Kingdom.
On the contrary, it can hit the prestige of France, which rose after World War I, and make people understand who is the master of Europe.
As for Germany, as long as the little man goes to war against the Soviet Union as agreed, the best outcome for it fighting on two fronts will be that both sides will suffer.
At that time, the British Empire will regain its throne and maintain the pride of the empire on which the sun never sets.
Without the support of Britain, the French turned their attention to other allies.
One of the important members of the French alliance system, Poland.
The Polish ambassador in Paris received an invitation from the French authorities to go to the Elysee Palace to discuss the policy towards Germany and support the Czech Republic.
What they didn't expect was that Poland at this time was in secret contact with Germany to discuss how to carve up the fat sheep next door to the Czech Republic.
Eager for immediate territorial gains, Poland supported Hungary to the south, which was second only to Germany in its desire to dismantle the Czech Republic.
At the same time, Poland also supports Romania, which is related to Poland's subsequent 'neutrality plan. '
It chose neutrality between Germany and the Soviet Union, but in fact Poland was more inclined to Germany.
Because if they favor the Soviet Union, they will have to bear the risk of allowing Soviet tanks and planes to pass through the country and airspace.
The "terror" of redism, together with the Czech Republic, which made Poland hate the Soviet Union.
Moreover, the Czech Republic will always be disintegrated, and Poland can take the opportunity to conquer the plundered land, strengthen its national strength, and enhance its own influence.
Occupying more discourse power and interests in future wars are what Poland considers.
When the French ambassador to Poland repeatedly asked Poland to remain neutral in this war, it was perfunctory, and Poland's purpose was already obvious.
The French alliance system is collapsing because of internal contradictions.
