"God bless our Emperor William, may the emperor live long! God bless our Emperor William, may he always be victorious and blessed with glory; be popular among the people, and his heart may be happy; govern the country, and may the emperor's destiny be long; God bless our Emperor William..."
In Kensington Palace, where Princess Victoria lives, an English singing voice came from an ore radio, singing "God Save Our Emperor William". Since the 20,000 heavily armed "German troops" entered the city of London, military mobilization and "imperialist" propaganda in the British Isles have been significantly intensified. The "big" newspaper with a circulation of only tens of thousands of copies that was sent to Kensington Palace for Princess Victoria to read every day published mostly news and articles related to "anti-yellow peril, protection of India, and protection of Europe."
Of course, the news is mainly good news. News such as "the navy's defeat in the Pacific" and "the army's defeat in Australia" have never appeared again. They are all about "the British and Indian troops defeated the Ming army somewhere in Sydney. How many were killed, how many were captured, and how many were captured" good news. But if you have an accurate map of the Sydney Fortress area, you will find that the "victorious" British army is steadily retreating towards Sydney city and Sydney Bay! The Ming army, which has been suffering defeats all the time, will be closer to the center of Sydney and Jackson Military Port after a defeat...
As for other places in Australia, as well as Port Moresby, New Guinea Islands, Solomon Islands, New Zealand, New Hebrides Islands and other places outside the Australian mainland, there is simply no news at all!
As for the Indian Ocean, there has been a lot of good news recently! After a while, the people of the Indian Empire enthusiastically joined the army. The number of the Royal Army of the Indian Empire has exceeded 3 million, and training is currently being stepped up. There will be no problem in defending India, and they will soon be able to repel the Ming army that is attacking Ceylon, and then further Recover Malacca, recover Java... and counterattack all the way back to Western Australia!
But when were the islands of Java and Western Australia lost? Also, when did the Ming army land in Ceylon?
In addition, the Indian Empire's armament construction is also full of good news. It will be the first ship of the Indian Emperor's improved "Vikrant" class. It has a standard displacement of more than 40,000 tons, is equipped with eight 15-inch 45-caliber main guns, and has a speed of more than 27 The hull of the battleship Vikrant has been launched at the Mumbai shipyard of Hindustan Shipbuilding Corporation. After a while, the "Eagle" biplane twin-engine bomber assembled by Hindustan Aircraft Company has begun mass production! After a while, the Victory Chariot of Hindustan Advanced Vehicles Company has completed trial production and will be put into production soon...
In short, under the wise leadership of Emperor William of India, India's industrialization seems to be advancing by leaps and bounds, and it will soon be among the first-class powers in the world!
Of course, the situation in the Americas is also gratifying. The British and American combined fleets have recently regained control of the Caribbean Sea. The Mexican Navy and the Texas Navy have been compressed to the coast of Mexico. Only the Hiryu bombers of the Japanese expatriate flying group in Texas can barely keep the offshore waters.
But on land, one million American troops have marched into Texas, beating the Mexicans back steadily. Now they have surrounded Texas City from three sides, and the attack will soon begin.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
The total strength of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces in Texas is said to be only 60,000... If 1 million fights 60,000, they can definitely win!
The current situation in the American battlefields, Australian battlefields, and Indian battlefields is all gratifying...The battles of Sydney, Ceylon, and Texas are likely to be the turning points of this world war!
Therefore, the people of the United Kingdom must work harder... Let us all support the supplementary budget for 1833 that His Majesty the Emperor has just announced. Young people and middle-aged people of appropriate age must actively enlist in the army and strive to exceed the quota for 1833. Plan to recruit 1.5 million people!
In addition, workers in shipyards, arsenals, and vehicle factories must work harder and increase their daily working hours by a few more hours, striving to reach 16 hours. In this way, the Royal Navy's 1833 annual shipbuilding plan can be completed ahead of schedule, and the Army can also Get enough equipment.
In short, the turning point of this world war is approaching. As long as it works harder, the British Empire will have the last laugh.
But amidst the singing of "God Save Our Emperor William", several big shots were sitting in a drawing room in Kensington Palace, drinking coffee and talking quietly about something?
"Duke, can the war really reach a turning point in 1833? That's what the radio and newspapers say!"
The person who was asking the question was a doll-like girl, none other than Princess Victoria, the presumptive heir of the United Kingdom and the Indian Empire! The person she called "the Duke" was the new Commander-in-Chief of the Australian Legion, the Duke of Wellington.
Since the route to Australia is still not safe, the Duke of Wellington is temporarily unable to take office. So he stayed in the UK, supervising the training organization of a dozen new British infantry divisions and tank brigades that were preparing to go to Australia, while visiting relatives and friends all over England...
"Your Highness, the United Kingdom is only a country of more than 20 million people after all, and it is also an alliance of three kingdoms... and our enemy is a super empire with a population of more than 400 million. , and this super empire has more industrial strength than all other countries in the world combined! Before this war began, we once thought that through adequate preparations and preemptive attacks, we could win up to 18 Month's initiative. We originally expected to use these 18 months to inflict enough damage on the Ming Dynasty and force them to sue for peace. But all of us...including myself and the Marquis Nelson underestimated the military strength of the giant Ming Dynasty. Strength! We have never taken the initiative, the initiative has been in their hands from the beginning."
"But His Majesty the Emperor..."
Viscount Melbourne, the Home Secretary who was visiting with the Duke of Wellington, took the question and said: "Your Royal Highness, in fact, His Majesty the Emperor is also conducting secret negotiations with the Ming Dynasty. The Crown Prince Xianfeng of Ming Dynasty is the intermediary of His Majesty the Emperor... .The conditions of His Majesty the Emperor are the complete independence and unity of the Indian Empire. Australia can be ceded to Ming Dynasty, and the United Kingdom can be handed over to you and King Ming Lu to rule, but the Indian Empire must be ruled by him and his descendants."
"His descendants? Doesn't he have no legitimate children?" The speaker was a middle-aged woman dressed as a lady. She looked a bit short and fat, with a nervous expression on her round face.
"Duchess," the Duke of Wellington shook his head, "according to the laws of the Indian Empire, His Majesty the Emperor's illegitimate children are legal...Although their inheritance rights are not as good as those of legitimate children, they are certainly higher than those of nieces. "
Viscount Melbourne also said: "Yes, in India, there has never been a daughter to inherit the throne, let alone a niece."
"But..." Princess Victoria frowned, "But will the British people agree to such an arrangement? We need India's market, raw materials and taxes... Is that right?"
Viscount Melbourne looked very worried and frowned and said: "Your Royal Highness, it is difficult for me to imagine that the British people can agree to completely lose the pearl of India. Without the Indian market, our industry will lose 30% or even more markets and The origin of raw materials... well, this could end up costing us 80% of our industrialization!”
