Chapter 857: Enemies of the future (seeking monthly ticket)

   Just after New Year's Day in 1916, the German Army and Navy once again launched a joint operation. The Army's 3rd Army, the 8th Army, with the assistance of the Navy, began the expedition. The 3rd Army will go straight to South Africa, while the 8th Army will go to Egypt. Thus began Germany's battle to recover those colonies that originally belonged to Britain.

  As for the colonies of other countries, such as the colonies of France and Italy, they have already been handed over. Germany only needs to send civilian officials and a small number of troops to receive it. Of course, in the long run. In order to ensure the stability of German rule in these colonies, the formation of colonial armies was also inevitable. Although the colonial army with Germans as officers and local aborigines as soldiers does not expect their combat effectiveness to be strong, as long as they can maintain the local law and order and ensure the safety of the logistics supply line after the war breaks out, that is enough. . After all, the combat effectiveness of the colonial army was already very weak, so how could we expect more.

  The 4th Army of the Army is also preparing and can go overseas to fight at any time.

  Although, the war is not completely over yet. However, the war launched against the colonies was only a small-scale war. For Germany, it will not have any impact.

   After Germany regains these colonies, it will get more resources. Germany's industry and economy will also start a new round of take-off. This will be very effective in enhancing Germany's strength and consolidating Germany's dominance.

  After the end of this world war, the political landscape of the world has undergone tremendous changes. Germany became the well-deserved world hegemon, the only superpower. However, there are many powerful countries second only to Germany. On the other side of the ocean, the United States is powerful, although its military strength is weaker than that of Germany. However, compared with Germany in other aspects of strength, the gap is not big. Therefore, the United States is definitely the most powerful challenger to Germany's hegemony. If the United States cannot be defeated, Germany's hegemony will not be truly stable.

  In addition to the United States, the biggest threat to Germany is naturally Bu Russia. Although, others disagree with this point of view. However, only Qin Tian knows how terrifying this country will be once it develops rapidly. That is a country that has become the number one industrial power in Europe in just a dozen years! Thinking about Qin Tian felt trembling with fear.

   Moreover, Bu Russia is next to Germany. After Germany's territory has expanded significantly to the east, the two countries have become neighbors. Once the war starts, you don't need to think about it, you will know that it will be very intense. The depth and population base of Russia's terror will become Germany's nightmare. If Qin Tian didn't want to lose the war like the head of state, he had to make preparations early.

  Of course, Germany in this time and space is stronger than the Third Reich in another time and space. And because of the loss of a large amount of territory, Bu Russia's strength has also been weakened. Therefore, the possibility of Germany winning is undoubtedly great.

  Other important imperial ministers also proposed whether to suppress Bu Russia, especially their industries. However, Qin Tian still refused after thinking about it. Because, even if Germany wants to suppress it, it may not be possible to suppress it. Germany can ban the sale of machinery and equipment to Russia, but what about other countries? Especially the United States, I am afraid that a powerful Bu Russia will appear beside Germany! They will take advantage of this opportunity to export a large amount of machinery and equipment to Bu Russia, thereby gaining huge benefits. At the same time, you can also arm Bu Russia to make it more powerful. This is completely killing two birds with one stone!

  So, instead of letting the Americans make this money, it is better to let Germany make this money. At least, the relationship between Germany and Russia at this stage is better than the relationship between other countries and Russia. Of course, Germany obtained a large amount of territory and war reparations from Bu Russia through the "Brest Treaty", which made Bu Russia grit its teeth with hatred for Germany. Always want to regain the lost territory. It's just that Germany's strong combat effectiveness in the war made Bu Russia dare not act rashly. The current Buer is not the powerful one that can push Europe across the board. In addition, Germany is also the only country where Burusa can obtain machinery and other important industrial technologies. This also makes Bu Russia attach great importance to the relationship with Germany.

  In order to obtain more machinery and equipment, Bu Russia sold agricultural products and mineral resources to Germany, and did not hesitate to starve the people in the country, and even famine occurred every year. From the perspective of the leadership of Bu Russia, only when the industry develops can Bu Russia become truly powerful. As for the life and death of the people at the bottom, especially the life and death of those peasants, it is not important.

   This is undoubtedly an opportunity for Germany. Once war breaks out, Germany will easily win the support of the oppressed peasants. This will play a big role in Germany's defeat of Bu Russia.

  In addition to these two countries, the remaining Austro-Hungarian Empire and island countries can pose a certain threat to Germany. However, the threat is also fairly limited. Needless to say, the Austro-Hungarian Empire seemed powerful, but it was nothing more than a strong foreign power. After the death of Franz Joseph I, Germany will attack Austria-Hungary. Soon, this country will fall. As far as Germany is concerned, it is naturally not a threat. On the contrary, Germany was able to cut a piece of fat from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

  Although the strength of the island country is not very strong, it is too far away from Germany. Naturally, it does not constitute a threat to the core interests of Germany itself. However, it will pose a great threat to Germany's interests in the South China Sea and the Pacific Ocean. Especially India, which is the most important colony of Germany. The Indian Asan, who has been tamed by the British, is easy to manage. Germany can exploit them at will and extract as much benefit from them as possible. Of course, Qin Tian did not forget the wealth buried in those temples in India. After the German army occupied India, the first thing to do was probably to excavate those temples and take out the gold and gold and silver treasures. Otherwise, it would be too wasteful to leave it to the future Indian Asan.

   Finally, the British Empire fled to Canada. The current British Empire is no longer its former glory, and can only linger in Canada. If it is not for the asylum of the United States, Germany can destroy them at any time. It's just that Germany is a little powerless to start a war with the United States now. The barrier of the Atlantic Ocean is also a relatively big trouble for Germany.
