Chapter 2192

Winston has always had great expectations for Russia.

This expectation is definitely not like that in southern Africa, hoping that Russia will become an Allied factory, but expecting the German army to go north and hurt both sides with Russia, so that the war can be won.

Rock partly agrees with Winston on the war.

The time came to 1941, and the German army was at an unprecedented peak.

Successive victories gave the German army unparalleled confidence.

Through a series of wars, German generals have become more and more experienced in the use of armored forces, and the use of blitzkrieg has become more and more mature. Germany's industrial capabilities have been greatly improved after the conquest of France, and the size of the German army has reached more than 500 million people. , even if Southern Africa goes all out, defeating Germany will have to pay a huge price.

"Southern Africa has been mobilized for war. We have mobilized millions of troops and produced tens of thousands of tanks and armored vehicles. We are helping Britain and Free France rebuild their armies. We have provided Britain with weapons that can equip 75 divisions. equipment, helped the Free French train 11 people, in the training camp in Luanda, up to 23 people are being trained, this work will be completed in the next 6 months, by then we can have up to 400 people Wan Jun-" Rock was the first to speak, and a total of 19 countries participated in the meeting, including all Commonwealth countries and Southern African Union countries.

"We now have 105 air squadrons, the Royal Navy has as many as 350 warships, we have completely defeated the Italians in East Africa, and the restoration of the Abyssinian Empire is our first decisive battle since the outbreak of the European War. Victory, we have completed the training, and the number of troops under training exceeds 200 million. At the end of next year at the latest, we will launch a counterattack to the European continent and deal a fatal blow to the Germans!" Winston spoke second, he Obviously changing the concept, the victory of the Allied forces in East Africa has almost nothing to do with the British Empire.

The reason why it is almost is mainly because Canberra persisted to the end, which saved the British Empire from losing its face. At least the British army in Canberra played a certain role in restraining the Italian East African Army.

During the first day of the meeting, neither Roosevelt nor de Gaulle got a chance to speak.

In the evening, Roque held a banquet at the Santa Maria Naval Club to entertain leaders from various countries.

Roosevelt spent the evening chatting with Rock.

It can be seen that Roosevelt is not clear enough about the prospect of the war, so he has not made a decision yet.

This is understandable. As recently as November last year, Russia was still discussing with Germany about the possibility of Russia joining the Axis powers.

This is not alarmist.

If Mustache had agreed to divide South Bukovina to Russia last winter, Russia might now be a member of the Axis powers.

It is precisely because he saw clearly Russia's ambitions for South and North Bukovina that Mustache made up his mind to turn against the Russians.

Roosevelt still doesn't know the "tacit understanding" between the Germans and the Russians, so he is hesitant.

"War will definitely break out between Germany and Russia, because these two countries have an arrogant leader." Rock is very aware of the shortcomings of mustaches and beards.

A mustache and a beard have similar shortcomings, self-willed, arrogant, and who else is better than me——

"According to the existing information, we can't make such a judgment yet." Roosevelt didn't know enough about mustache and beard.

In other words, the capitalists in the United States haven't earned enough.

The above explanation is very clear, Roosevelt is the spokesperson pushed to the front by American capital, whether the United States joins the war Roosevelt has the final say, Morgan and Rockefeller have the final say.

So this is obviously an excuse.

Of course it may not be.

Some things are hard to explain with common sense.

The Russians are not ignorant of the "Project Barbarossa".

Before the start of "Project Barbarossa", Moscow obtained multiple pieces of extremely detailed intelligence in succession. The intelligence not only provided details of the German "Barbarossa" plan, but also included the date of the attack and the location of tanks of the three German Fronts. The exact number, even the names of the senior generals of the group army are intact.

With such detailed intelligence, it is said that the Russians should be prepared.

The key point is that the bearded man doesn't believe it.

Until the moment before the outbreak of the Russo-German war, the bearded man did not believe that Germany would attack Russia.

In order to show Russia's trust in Germany, Beard even ordered the Russian Air Force not to interfere with reconnaissance planes that frequently enter Russia for reconnaissance.

See clearly, no interference is allowed.

Not to mention attacking.

The same is true for the United States.

Regarding Pearl Harbor, I have already mentioned it before, so I will not talk about it in order not to be scolded.

"Germany has already begun to gather troops on the German-Russian border. Don't you think that the Germans really gathered their troops away from the strait because they wanted to avoid the bombing of the Southern African Air Force." Rock teased, the Germans The excuses are lame enough.

The key is that the bearded man is willing to believe.

In order to attack Russia, Mustache hoarded 320 million people on the Russian-German border and deployed 68 people on the Romanian-Russian border.

Also mobilized were 36 Romanian troops, 4.4 Hungarian troops, and 47 Finnish troops.

The gathering of so many troops at the border will definitely arouse the vigilance of the Russians.

In this regard, the Germans explained that in order to avoid the bombing of the Allied forces, they deployed their troops to the German-Russian border far away from the strait.

Such a lame reason, the bearded man actually believed it!
Mustache really wants to thank the Southern African Air Force for its assistance.

Of course, the bearded man is not defenseless.

While the German army is gathering heavy troops on the border, the Russians are also actively preparing for the "Thunderstorm Project".

By 1941, Russia had 430 million men deployed on the Western Front.

At the same time, in Russia, there are still the same number of mobilized soldiers who can be mobilized at any time.

Pay attention to this situation, this is the main reason why the Russians can kill the Germans.

It is precisely because of underestimating the determination of the Russians and Russia's war potential that Mustache repeats Napoleon's mistakes.

"South Africa didn't go all out, and we are not in a hurry." Roosevelt was rarely honest, and this is also true.

Rock said that he would go all out.

In fact, Southern Africa is still far from going all out.

Southern Africa has the war potential no less than Russia.

Whether it is in terms of the amount of resources, or in terms of industrial capacity, or even in terms of population, southern Africa has an overall advantage over Germany.

After Southern Africa joined the war, only the Second Army occasionally showed up in Italian East Africa, and the other armies made almost no achievements.

So what Roosevelt said was correct. If Southern Africa goes all out, it may not be able to completely defeat Germany in a short period of time, at least Italy can be completely taken down.

"It's not that southern Africa is unwilling to go all out, but someone doesn't want us to go all out." Rock chuckled, with the British Empire, the allied forces could not be united.

"So, that's why we're worried." Roosevelt also laughed. If Britain is a land rich man, southern Africa and the United States are a pair of chicken thieves.

"Locke, you have given too much aid to the French—" Winston took the initiative to express his dissatisfaction to Rocke.

"The French promised to transfer all French power in Asia to southern Africa after the war." Rock was also helpless, the French gave too much.

Winston frowned.

With Southern Africa already in control of the Strait of Malacca, if the Indochina Peninsula is also owned, then Britain's influence in Asia will continue to weaken.

Now Britain no longer expects to control Asia.

Mere influence is hard to say.

"The Second Army and the Third Army can enter Italian North Africa to assist the Nile Army in operations, but after the war, the Southern African Army must withdraw from North Africa, completely withdraw from that." Winston knew Rock very well, so he specifically emphasized it.

"Winston, North Africa belongs to the French, it belongs to the Italians, and it never belonged to the British Empire." Rock was dissatisfied. Your British hand is too long.

To put it bluntly, whoever fights counts. This world has always been about fists.

Like Winston, Rock's bottom line was the Suez Canal.

This means that after the war, southern Africa can help Britain and maintain Britain's control over the Suez Canal.

Forget about North Africa, East Africa is also part of Southern Africa—

"Southern Africa already has more than half of the African continent, how much more do you want?" Winston directly stated.

"The territory of southern Africa was all bought by the blood of southern Africans. The point is not big. Russia still has 2000 million people—" Rock said that the territory can be as big as the heart.

"Most of the territory of the Russians is within the Arctic Circle, and the land owned by the southern Africans is a land of hopelessness." Winston felt uncomfortable, which was obviously incomparable.

It is a bitter tear to say the least.

Although Russia's territory is large, it is covered with ice and snow for most of the year, which is not suitable for human survival at all.

France's colonies in North Africa and West Africa are also quite large, but unfortunately most of them are deserts.

The Italians said that in their colonies in North and East Africa, only a few ports looked good, and most of the other areas were also deserts or Gobi——

Only Southern Africa.

As Winston said, all the land you own is land of hopelessness.

Even under the desert of Port Elizabeth there are countless oil deposits--

"Otherwise, let's launch an attack on Italian North Africa together, and whoever strikes down will count." Rock pointed out that Germany, Italy, Japan, and Russia are all busy dividing their spheres of influence, and the Allies can't do it either. play dumb.

When it comes to spheres of influence, de Gaulle was right off the bat.

"While the Free France inherits French territory, its interests in the Mediterranean Sea also need to be protected." De Gaulle's words made Roque and Winston frown at the same time.

What this said, why not just say that after the war, the entire Mediterranean will be needed, and where will southern Africa and the United Kingdom be placed?

"The interests of the Southern African Federal Government in the Mediterranean also need to be protected." Rock also has requirements for the Mediterranean, and the eldest son can't ignore it.

Winston sneered, as long as Britain controls the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal, southern Africa and France are scumbags.

The British island-for-destroyer plan does not include the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal.

The UK can lease Malta to Southern Africa, sell the Changi Naval Base to Southern Africa, and give the Bahamas to Southern Africa. Only the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal are untouchable taboos for the UK.

"If the United States participates in the war in the future, then the interests of the United States in the Mediterranean Sea also need to be protected." Roosevelt also joined in the fun. Americans, like southern Africa, want to intervene in everything.

"Greece—" Greek Prime Minister Alexandros Korizis, who represented Greece at the meeting, hoped that Greece's interests could also be guaranteed.

Rock immediately turned around and discussed with Vargas where to eat at night.

Southern Africa could safeguard British interests in the Mediterranean.

Can protect the interests of France in the Mediterranean.

It can even protect Brazil's interests in the Mediterranean.

Only Greece, Roque didn't want to talk to Alexandros Koryzis.

Just before the start of the Saar meeting, the former Greek Prime Minister Ioannis Metaxas died of illness, and Korizis succeeded Metaxas as the Prime Minister of Greece.

Greece's back-and-forth on the Crete issue has had a huge impact on relations between southern Africa and Greece.

After Britain intervened, Greece was forced to open Crete to southern Africa, but the Cyprus squadron did nothing, and did not send a single soldier to Crete at all.

In the plan of Rock and Temperature and Humidity, Greece has been completely abandoned. Compared with prompting Germany to attack Russia, Greece's interests must be given up.

"Of course, with Greece as our ally, the interests of Greece will be guaranteed after the war." Winston vowed. In terms of thick skin, Rock is still inferior to Winston.

However, Winston's promise was obviously not as good as Rock's.

So a little later, Korizis offered to have Rocco have dinner with him, hoping to repair relations between southern Africa and Greece.

Rock is sorry.

There is no need to emphasize the role of southern Africa in the Allied Forces. Roque was very busy during the Saar meeting, and not just anyone had the opportunity to have dinner with Roque.

During the Saar Conference, the interests of Southern Africa and the United Kingdom and France need to be reconciled, and the interests of the Southern African Union also need to be reconciled.

After Southern Africa joined the war, the countries of the Southern African Union joined the war one after another, and all of them took the initiative to send expeditionary forces to Europe to join the war with the Southern African Expeditionary Force.

Since the alliance countries are all so cooperative, there must be rewards, not to mention the territory, and some economic assistance must be given.

What is more important is the guarantee of safety.

It is sad to say that the biggest threat to the countries of the Southern African Union is neither Germany nor the United Kingdom, but the leader of the Southern African Union, the Federal Government of Southern Africa.

The requirements of the alliance countries are very simple. They need Roque to guarantee that Southern Africa will not annex them in the future.
