Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Chapter 616 The Iliban Civil War breaks out

Therefore, the fighting power of the Gallic Empire is not weak. Like the Kingdom of Italy, they mainly depend on whether the soldiers are willing to fight.

Under the leadership of Lin Yi, the Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire, two rivals during World War II, are now in their honeymoon period.

Not surprisingly, the final camp in World War II should be the Hans Empire, the Gallic Empire, and the Kingdom of Italy forming the Three Kingdoms Alliance to deal with the camp headed by the Rhineland Republic, the John Empire, and Millicia.

Looking at it this way, the advantages and disadvantages of both sides are actually very obvious.

The Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire were both land-power empires and both had strong armies.

The John Empire and Millican are maritime countries, and their naval strength is obviously more powerful than their army.

This makes it difficult for the John Empire and Millican to invade Europe as soon as possible.

Moreover, in this time and space, Gaul was not the Vichy regime, and the army had no will to fight.

The Hans Empire did not need to divide its troops to garrison the entire Western Europe, which resulted in the dispersion of its own forces and gave the Allies an advantage.

Milician wants to copy Normandy again, the Overlord Plan. If the two countries don't fight the shit out of each other, it will be considered as clean.

But similarly, it would be difficult for the Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire to fight out.

As we all know, the Hans Empire's navy has always been their shortcoming.

The Millennium already uses aircraft carriers, while the Hans Empire still uses battleships.

And the number of battleships is not as large as that of John's empire.

Before, the Gallic Empire had a powerful navy, but before World War I, they were deceived by the Johns into replacing most of their warships with an offshore fleet.

It was later often referred to as the Green Water Fleet.

Most of the current Gallic Empire's navy are gunboats, and there are not as many main ships as the Hans Empire.

As for the Navy of the Kingdom of Italy, what should I say? They have more warships than the Hans Empire.

The total tonnage barely ranks among the top four in the world.

(I didn’t expect it, but it is a fact. In the original history, it was also the case. Italy only ranked fourth after the United States, Britain, and Japan. In this book, it is John, Bactria, Millenia, and Italy. What I’m talking about here is tonnage.)

But again, at present, the Italian Kingdom's fighting spirit is still the weakest among the three countries.

Therefore, before such conditions, it is almost impossible to launch a decisive naval battle with the John Empire and Millican.

Therefore, the three countries formulated a strategy of sticking to their homeland and vigorously developing their navy.

In other words, what we often say is to defend a wave first, knock down the opponent's arrogance, and then take the opportunity to develop the navy to seek opportunities to fight against Milician and the others.

To achieve this, Adolf felt that the three countries should understand each other and learn from each other.

That means preparing a drill to boost morale and provide an opportunity to learn.

Millerand supported Adolf's point, and Lao Mo even more so.

In fact, Lao Mo also knew that the soldiers on his side were somewhat weaker than those of the other two countries.

Now, he is following the Hans Empire and the Gallic Empire, learning more and seeing more.

But before the implementation exercise between the three countries started, an accident happened.

Civil strife suddenly broke out in the Iliban Kingdom next door to the Gallic Empire.

The two sides were fighting to the death on the Iliban Peninsula.

Here is a brief introduction to the Kingdom of Iberia.

Speaking of the Iliban Kingdom, that one is the generation of the empire on which the sun never sets.

They were the first to embark on the great voyage. In today's terms, that is a great achievement for their ancestors.

At that time, Iliban warships transported old gold from all over the world to their own kingdom.

At the same time, they defeated the Gallic Empire, the Hans Empire, and the John Empire, becoming the number one empire in the world.

Later, the old powers such as the Gallic Empire couldn't stand Ilibia and fought with him several times, with both sides winning and losing.

Later, Holland, the younger brother of Ilibia, rebelled. When Ilibia went to suppress the rebellion again, he was passing through the English Channel.

The John Empire took advantage of the thick fog rising from the sea to sneak attack the fleet of the Iliban Kingdom.

Because the Iliban Kingdom was rich at that time, their warships were all large warships four or five stories high.

This kind of warship has the advantages of strong firepower, good protection and high speed, but its disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is not flexible enough.

At that time, the warships attacked by John's Empire were all small warships, which were very flexible.

They took advantage of the thick fog to approach the warships of the Iliban Kingdom, and suddenly launched an attack before the other party had time to turn their guns.

In the end, the Iliban Royal Navy returned with a disastrous defeat.

And since then, Ilibia has not been able to catch its breath.

Now, the Iliban Kingdom has become a second-rate country in Europe.

As for the civil strife in Iliba this time, the unemployment rate in their country was too high and the people could not survive, so the rebellion broke out.

The reason why the unemployment rate is too high is because the Rhineland Republic targeted Gaul last time, which resulted in the world financial crisis.

The financial crisis at that time swept almost the whole world, and a large number of countries in Europe and America were involved.

Among them was the Kingdom of Iberia.

As a second-rate European country, they have no way to save themselves and can only resign themselves to fate.

The final result was the Great Depression within the Iliban Kingdom, with a large number of factories closing down and people going bankrupt.

Although they were thinking of ways when the financial crisis broke out in the Iliban Kingdom, they had no money and no solution.

Finally, civil war broke out.

And this civil war allowed the John Empire and Millician to see an opportunity.

They know very well who they will face in the future, so it is simply impossible to land on the beach from the Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire.

Therefore, the current John Empire and Millican are in urgent need of a landing site on the European continent.

With the Gallic Empire sharing a border, and the Pyrenees Mountains between the two countries, it can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Looking at it this way, if the Iliban Kingdom is brought into their own camp, they can attack Gaul from Ilibia in the future. At the same time, they can also involve the Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire on the sea.

Forming a flanking attack from both sides.

The thought of this made Imperial John and Milician excited.

As a result, they began to contact the Iliban government forces, hoping to help them suppress the rebellion.

Naturally, the actions of the John Empire and the others could not be hidden from the Hans Empire and the Gallic Empire.

After learning that John Empire wanted to put a nail in his back, Millerand was naturally unwilling.

Therefore, Millerand quickly sent someone to contact Adolf, and at the same time sent someone to urgently contact the rebels of the Iliban Kingdom.

Adolf learned about John Empire's dirty tricks and knew that Millerand had already started taking action. Naturally, he would not stand aside and watch.

So, the next day, the Hans Empire's envoy also secretly approached the rebel leader Franco.
