2817 Iran - Beginning of the Great War

Prince Georg smiled mysteriously: "Now Germany occupies Poland, and Ukraine, Estonia and other Eastern European countries are all owned by China. Our German Empire has long been dissatisfied with this situation, especially Ukraine. , iron ore, coal and oil reserves are very rich, these are the needs of our German Empire."

"So we are going to gather troops to Poland and conquer Ukraine in one fell swoop, but we are afraid of getting reprisals from China, so we dare not act. Now that the British Empire and the Ottoman Empire have made counterattack plans, then our plan is also It’s ready to be implemented.”

"Great!" The Earl of Salisbury cheered in unison. In this way, they counterattacked China in the four battlefields of Northern Europe, Eastern Europe, West Asia and Africa at the same time, which was much stronger than the counterattack in a single battlefield.

The Earl of Salisbury then said: "Let's agree on an attack time together. At this time, we will declare war on China together and launch a counterattack."

Prince Georg first stated: "No problem, our German Empire has long been prepared, and we can launch an attack at any time."

Mustafa said: "It will take some time for our Ottoman Empire to mobilize troops, so I hope there will be about ten days for preparation."

The Earl of Salisbury thought for a while, "Well, I will give you 20 days to prepare. Today is August [-], and we will attack together on August [-]."

The four agreed together, but Mustafa suddenly said: "I hope to attack Mashhad in advance around August [-]th."

The Earl of Salisbury was taken aback, and asked, "Why do you want to attack in advance?"

"Because I want to fight Fade Chen to the death in advance, can you understand my mood?" After all, Mustafa is a high-ranking official of the empire. There is a characteristic of high-ranking officials in the empire, that is, it is difficult to be completely rational, because their power is not affected. Restricted, so they will have a lot of thoughts that come from personal emotions.

Earl Salisbury knew that people like Mustafa usually said the same thing, and everyone followed them. If they went against their will, it would be a big deal, so Earl Salisbury agreed to Mustafa. Mustafa, and arranged for someone to send Mustafa back to Istanbul, the capital of the Ottoman Empire, from where Mustafa will lead the troops, enter Iran by train, make a transit in Tehran, and then rush to Mashha Germany.

The British side has made a plan, but Lin Yuan is worrying about the route of the advance. Akishat is right. Lin Yuan wants to attack the British mainland. The choice of route is a big trouble. The most convenient way is—— — Garrison troops in France and attack the British mainland from France.

From France to the United Kingdom, there is only a narrow English Channel. France has complete industries and is not short of resources. It is the best base for China.

For this reason, Lin Yuan sent a personal letter to the French President, hoping to lease the land of France as a forward base, but the French President declined Lin Yuan's request, and the reasons given were very good. France has suffered from foreign invasions many times in history, so the people I don't want troops from other countries to enter France anymore.

Lin Yuan chose the next best thing and hoped to lease the French colony-Morocco as a forward base. Morocco is located in North Africa, only [-] kilometers away from the British mainland, which is much closer than marching from South Africa.

But the French president rejected Lin Yuan’s request again. The reason for rejecting Lin Yuan this time was very strange. France was competing with Spain for Morocco, and France did not want China’s intervention to affect the relationship between France and Spain.

Lin Yuan is well aware of what the French president is planning. The French president just doesn't want to see China defeat Britain, so that France can have a balance between China, Britain, and Germany. Lin Yuan doesn't want to punish France now, because Lin Yuan doesn't want to One more enemy.

Lin Yuan thought about it, and planned to march from the Arctic Ocean. Lin Yuan wanted to send a fleet to bypass the Bering Strait, enter the Arctic Ocean, and enter the port in northern Russia—Murmansk. Murmansk is one of the excellent seaports in northern Russia. There is a warm Atlantic current passing by, so it is a ice-free port.

However, when crossing the Arctic Ocean, the biggest danger is the icebergs that can be seen everywhere. In this era, the climate has not warmed up, so there are so many icebergs, and the quality of these things is huge. It didn't seem appropriate to march from the Arctic Ocean, so Lin Yuan didn't make a decision for a while.

Lin Yuan made arrangements for Iran while looking for a route to advance. At this time, Chen Fei led six special operations teams to station in Mashhad, the largest city in eastern Iran, so Lin Yuan ordered Chen Fei to expel Mashhad directly. The British forces occupied eastern Iran.

Lin Yuan made this arrangement because Mashhad is very close to Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan, which means that China can control Mashhad from Ashgabat, while Tehran, the capital of Iran , It is too far away from China's sphere of influence.

At this time, there were still Chinese missions in Tehran. Lin Yuan worried that they would be detained by the British, so he ordered all the missions in Tehran to withdraw.

On August [-]th, Fade Chen received Lin Yuan's order, and immediately started to expel the British in Mashhad. The British in Mashhad were not opponents of Fade Chen at all, so they resisted symbolically, and immediately surrender.

Fade Chen has made friends with a large number of local dignitaries in his previous operations, so he quickly stabilized the order in Mashhad and established a Muslim regime in Mashhad. This Muslim regime is relatively secular and agreed with China in Mashhad. Khad carried out construction, and China then built the railway from Ashgabat to Mashhad according to the plan.

Everything is going in a direction that is beneficial to China, but on August 21, things suddenly changed drastically. A group of local youths suddenly stormed Chen Fei's barracks. They threw a lot of stones into the barracks, Shout the slogan: "Heretics, get out."

Fade Chen was caught off guard by such a change, and hurriedly called the dignitaries in the city to ask what was going on. The dignitaries were also at a loss. When the time came to August 24, the situation in Mashhad became more difficult to control. Ji's young men surrounded Fade Chen's barracks, and weapons such as machetes appeared in their hands.

At this time, Fade Chen still didn't know that Mustafa was playing tricks on all of this. His people had secretly infiltrated Mashhad, and they promoted extreme religiousism in Mashhad. Christians, of course, are the targets of their attacks.

The reason why these young people can be used by Mustafa is entirely because of China's own mistakes.
