"Hello, Your Majesty the Regent!"
"Hello, Your Majesty the King!"
"I don't know if you are going to attack our country with all your troops, or do you have some other agenda?"
King Carlos VII of Spain does not like people who break the rules at all, but out of politeness, he still has to ask first.
The tanks owned by both sides are of a type that neither side has ever seen before. Not only are they powerful and powerful, but they also have a bit of murderous aura. Fortunately, they seem to be evenly matched.
"Please don't get me wrong. My purpose of coming here this time is of course to consolidate our bilateral relations. You must have seen that we all seem to have been favored by God. We have brand-new weapons and can already attack our former enemies." Revenge."
The tank behind Cromwell V is the "Challenger"-I type, and it is not the best two. The combat effectiveness of Type II and Type III is higher than the former.
When he suddenly discovered that he had the ability to summon new weapons and loyal soldiers overnight, he felt that the moment had come for him to turn the situation around.
Except for the ancestors of the family, all previous regents were the rubber stamps of the Parliament and could be called mascots. Now they cannot be compared with the past.
Each can summon ten "Challenger" main battle tanks, ten "Samurai" infantry fighting vehicles, ten AS-90 self-propelled artillery, ten "Storm" tracked anti-aircraft anti-tank vehicles, and sixty "Terminators" "Light armored assault vehicles, a hundred man heavy trucks.
You can also get five A400M tactical transport aircraft, ten "Jaguar" attack aircraft, ten "Tornado" interceptors, ten "Typhoon" fighter jets, twenty "Lynx" medium-sized helicopters, twenty "Gray" Falcon heavy helicopter.
You can also get an aircraft carrier battle group every month, including a "Queen Elizabeth" class aircraft carrier, a "Wudang-class helicopter carrier, an "Ocean" class amphibious assault ship, and a "Poseidon Son" class dock landing ship , two "Fort Victoria" class supply ships, four Type 45 "Valiant" class destroyers, four Type 23 "Duke" class frigates, and four "Supporter" class conventionally powered submarines.
In just the past month, the British navy has swept across the main French naval fleet stationed in West Africa and has almost become the overlord of the Gulf of Guinea.
On land, the British armored forces spearheaded by Challenger main battle tanks, covered by a large number of attack aircraft and helicopters, drove all the way into French Nigeria.
More than 30,000 French troops were wiped out and captured, and more than 50,000 were defeated. Although the enemies were mostly black soldiers, they were still French troops stationed in West Africa.
In order to ensure the absolute security of New Paris, Louis XIV deployed fourteen of the French Army's twenty armored brigades on the mainland.
There are only three armored brigades stationed in French West Africa and French India. This results in the French army in West Africa having only 360 main battle tanks.
There was no preparation for the surprise attack launched by the British army. An armored brigade was destroyed in the first three days of the war.
Within the first month, all three armored brigades were decommissioned in the southeastern region of West Africa.
Louis XIV initially received reports from the West African defenders, thinking that the British had been bewitched and aided by Nicholas Zheng.
When the War Company saw that our side was losing steadily and telegrams were sent one after another, it suddenly dawned on us that we hurriedly increased our troops to West Africa, which was where the Second France was.
Louis XIV didn't want to ask his old friend for help on this matter. He hadn't figured out whether his old friend was behind it or if there was another reason.
To this end, France formed an expeditionary fleet and an expeditionary force. The fleet included two aircraft carriers with a displacement of 50,000 tons, two aircraft carriers with a displacement of 30,000 tons, four battleships, eight cruisers, 16 destroyers, and six supply ships. , and fifty transport ships transporting soldiers, equipment, and supplies for ten brigades.
The lineup is not unpowerful, but unfortunately after the land change, the French Empire's new homeland is too far away from West Africa.
If you take the sea route, you won't be able to reach your destination without fifty.
Before that, Louis XIV could only order the defenders to resist desperately.
At the same time, inquire about the relevant situation through the French Ambassador to the Ming Empire...
Cromwell V's purpose was very clear, which was to occupy the entire French West Africa in one fell swoop and turn this area into New Great Britain!
In order to succeed in one fell swoop, two-thirds of the army's new equipment that had been saved for three months was used, half was invested in the air force, and almost all of the navy was invested.
The attack power of the three dual-carrier battle groups was absolutely extraordinary. They almost seized sea control on the battlefield in a short time, and at the same time destroyed the French West African Fleet.
The latter only had one large aircraft carrier with a displacement of 10,000 tons. It was sunk by the F-35 carrier-based aircraft using nms anti-ship missiles without even having time to resist.
The "Scissor Kite" attack aircraft equipped by the French Air Force is already advanced enough and is the world's second-largest jet fighter after the "King Vulture" fighter jet.
However, this kind of light fighter is no match for the British Air Force's "Typhoon" fighter jets and is completely unable to parry.
A squadron of twenty-four Scissor Kite attack aircraft deployed in Nigeria was lost within one day.
The propeller-driven fighters that originally performed reasonably well have all fallen prey to the "Jaguar" attack aircraft.
The British Air Force shot down hundreds of French fighter planes within a month, and only lost six Jaguars.
The rate of fall of French West Africa has greatly exceeded the imagination of the French military leaders and Louis XIV...
The good news for them is that the Ottoman Empire, which controls North and East Africa, has not taken action.
The bad news is that the Ottoman Empire did not provide military support and was a bystander throughout the entire process!
September 14, 1800, two months after the war began.
After realizing the seriousness of the situation, Louis XIV formally asked his old friend Zhu Cihong for help.
It is hoped that the Ming Empire can dispatch a squadron stationed on Madagascar to fight alongside the French expeditionary fleet.
The Ming Dynasty's naval force on Madagascar includes two marine brigades, an aircraft carrier battle group including a Type III aircraft carrier and two amphibious assault ships, and naval aviation units. Its strength is relatively weak.
If you want to increase your strength, firstly, you need to ask the Zheng Group to send troops to assist, and secondly, you need to order the European fleet stationed in Xizhou to go south for support.
If the latter is dispatched, if there is no coordination in advance, it is likely to encounter the enemy's main fleet in the West African waters first. This is a situation that Zhu Cixiang does not want to see.
Regarding the newly emerged "situation", Emperor Haojing also believed that first-hand intelligence was needed and dispatching a fleet was not feasible, so he sent Jiexuan to command the fleet for combat.
The real purpose of this battle is not to completely eliminate the enemy, nor to help old friends regain lost ground, but to seize as much loot as possible.
A certain emperor was extremely curious about these weapons and equipment that came from another time and space.
The main god is afraid that he will live a good life for too long and find another job for himself...
"It certainly looks like that, and your plan was executed very successfully!"
Carlos VII also wanted to take revenge, but Zheng's army was far stronger than the French army in West Africa, and he needed to endure for a while before he could take action.
"This interview with His Majesty is to promote a new alliance. Our side is responsible for dealing with the French army, your side is responsible for dealing with the Zheng army, and Nicholas VI's army is responsible for dealing with the Ottoman army."
According to the idea of Cromwell V, based on the actual line of control of the three parties, the three parties will attack in three directions: West Africa, East Africa, and South Africa.
After forming an alliance, they can not interfere with each other and focus on external expansion, but they can also avoid being attacked by third parties behind their backs. This is a good thing for mutual benefit.
"Nicholas VI also has the same superpowers as us?"
Carlos VII was also quite excited about Cromwell V's proposal, and if Nicholas VI could have such a powerful army according to his law, then it would not be a problem for the three countries to join forces to control the entire Africa.
Since Spain is in the southwest of Congo and Russia is in the northeast, the two sides are just diagonal and separated by the Great Rift Valley, so there were not many previous contacts.
"This is the content of the movie he sent me. You must have received it too, right?"
There was no need for Cromwell V to hide everything about this matter.
"Whether it is France, the Ottomans, or the Zheng army, they are all very powerful. It's just that they don't have too many military forces deployed around Congo. Once they counterattack..."
Carlos VII now has two choices, one is to join the Triple Alliance, and the other is to join the hostile camp.
He had a pretty good relationship with Louis XIV. If he helped the other party attack Britain, he might be able to get most of the Congo after the war.
Therefore, it is not too late to make a decision before determining the strength of the two temporary partners.
"I can receive an aircraft carrier battle group, an armored brigade, four brigades of fighter jets, and four brigades of attack aircraft every month. After a year, my strength will be..."
Cromwell V's biggest hobby now is to show off his abilities to the other party, or the military force of the British Empire.
"That's right! Each other!"
Carlos VII can obtain ten Leopard II-E main battle tanks, ten "Pizarro" infantry fighting vehicles, ten "Donal" self-propelled artillery, twenty VCE wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicles, One hundred VAMTAC light armored assault vehicles and one hundred SH heavy-duty trucks can be used to assemble the heavy equipment for an armored brigade in a month.
You can get one aircraft carrier battle group every month, including one "Asturias" class aircraft carrier, one "Juan Carlos I" class amphibious assault ship, and two "Galicia" class dock landing ships , four "Bazin" class Aegis destroyers, four "Santa Maria" class frigates, four S-70 conventionally powered submarines, and two "Cantabria" class supply ships.
Compared with the gifts received by Cromwell V, the gap between Carlos VII and Carlos VII was mainly in the air force. Each of them could only receive five A400m tactical transport aircraft, ten "Typhoon" fighter jets, and twenty "Tiger" weapons. Helicopters, twenty A-109 medium helicopters, and twenty NH90 medium helicopters.
After acquiring so many heavy weapons, Carlos VII wanted to go south in a big way, but he was also worried that he would die with Zheng Jun. In the end, Cromwell V took advantage of him.
Moreover, Cromwell V had a very good relationship with the Zheng family and his son. There were almost no open quasi-allies between the two parties, so he had to guard against this aspect.
Even if the British army marched northward in large numbers, Carlos VII did not act rashly, for fear of falling into the opponent's trap and causing Spain to be attacked from the north and the south.
It’s not that Carlos VII doesn’t want to take action against Zheng, but he must first make sure that Britain will not take action against him.
"More than a hundred years ago, our two countries formed a combined fleet and defeated the Ming Empire in the east. If we can join forces again now, we will definitely be stronger than then, because now we have the gift of God!"
Cromwell V has regarded the entire West Africa as his own territory. If he wants to no longer be attached to the Zheng family in the future, he must find an ally of similar strength. If one is not enough, then find two. .
Second, Nicholas VI also arrived here on an IL-76 transport plane, protected by a large number of Su-35 fighters and Ka-52 armed helicopters.
After reading the relevant agreement, the three parties did not have much disagreement and could sign it.
As for King Joao VIII of Portugal, who was also near Congo, he was automatically ignored by the entire gang.
Those who have not received the gift from the Lord are naturally not qualified to come and conclude an alliance treaty.
After the three parties joined forces, French West Africa was owned by Britain, Zheng's South Africa was owned by Spain, and Ottoman Northeast Africa was owned by Russia.
If João VIII wants to, he can continue to stay on his own territory.
After cutting the cake, fighting side by side won't be much of a problem.
When Cromwell V's troops attacked French West Africa, Nicholas VI also ordered a large-scale Russian army to attack the southern Sudan area under Ottoman control.
Facing the T-90m main battle tank, 2S215 self-propelled anti-tank gun, 2S35 self-propelled howitzer, BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicle, BTR-90 wheeled armored vehicle, "Tunguska" anti-aircraft vehicle, "Doyle" M1 anti-aircraft vehicle heavy Russian army group.
Three Ottoman infantry brigades deployed in southern Sudan were quickly defeated, and one armored brigade was completely destroyed by a formation of Russian Ka-52 armed helicopters.
Nicholas VI's first step was clear, which was to eliminate all Ottoman armies in East Africa.
If the Ming army in East Africa dares to invade, let them never come back!
After that, the Russian army can sweep across East Africa, then seize North Africa, and control the Sudan Canal.
Even if the ancestors of past generations could not gain a foothold in the freezing north, Russia, which has become stronger now, can still take root in Northeast Africa.
In the view of Nicholas VI, it should be the most fair and reasonable result for the African continent to be divided into three parts by Russia, Britain, and Spain.
East and North Africa were about to become permanently Russian lands, and if the Ottoman Sultan was not willing, Russia would seize the entire Ottoman Empire.
That means that Tsarist Russia regained Constantinople and became the legitimate successor to the Eastern Roman Empire. This huge contribution will surely be recorded in history.
"Report! The Russian fleet was discovered about fifty nautical miles northeast of Zanzibar Island!"
This maritime patrol aircraft belonging to the African Fleet of the Ming Empire Navy was shot down by an anti-aircraft missile launched by a Russian warship after sending the report.
The one that shot down the patrol plane was a "Glorious" class cruiser. There were three other ships of the same class nearby, and four frigates in the distance.
