"Your Excellency, the Gauls are very tough and refuse to evacuate from the Rhine Demilitarized Zone. And they claim that if we send troops into the Rhine Demilitarized Zone, it will be deemed that we have violated the treaty, and they will even go to war with us because of this!"Constantin von Neuratt reported.

Hess nodded:"This is not beyond my expectation. Gauls are very face-conscious people. They were already in disgrace last time. This time, we want to embarrass them again, but they won't be willing to do it. However, even if the Gauls threaten us with war, we have nothing to fear. I believe they dare not fight! Therefore, at the last moment, they will definitely withdraw their troops."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor! Konstantin von Neurat nodded.

"Your Excellency, the most important thing is the attitude of the empire on which the sun never sets. If they had the support of the Empire on which the sun never sets, the Gauls would be very tough. However, the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets does not seem to want to be our enemy."Admiral Bromberg said

"Of course, the Empire on which the sun never sets does not want a powerful overlord to appear on the European continent. Therefore, they hope that we will fight with the Gauls and both sides will lose. For this reason, they even agreed to sign an agreement with us to allow us to develop a navy. Hess laughed.

In June of this year, Ribbentrop, the Third Reich’s ambassador to the Reich, formally signed an agreement with the Reich on which the sun never sets. The agreement stipulates that the Third Reich can have the equivalent of the Reich on which the sun never sets. Thirty-five percent of the tonnage of the Royal Navy.

I have to admit that the Empire that has dominated the world's oceans for hundreds of years is very arrogant. They confidently believe that the Royal Navy is enough to meet all challenges. Therefore, even if the third party They don't care if the empire develops its navy.

Indeed, even if the tonnage of the Third Reich's navy reaches 35% of the Royal Navy, it will hardly threaten the Royal Navy.

However, when the Third Reich's navy will be based on submarines Everything would be different when aircraft carriers were the mainstay.

The huge battleships of the Royal Navy, without air power cover, would become targets for the carrier-based aircraft of the Third Reich Navy.

"General, please prepare. Since the sun never sets, the empire cannot support the Gauls. Then, there is no need for us to wait any longer, it is a waste of time. A month later, entering the Rhine Demilitarized Zone!" Hess ordered

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Admiral Bromberg replied.

Although forcibly entering the Rhine Demilitarized Zone may risk triggering a war.

But in the eyes of the generals of the Third Reich, the Gauls are nothing more than paper tigers. They look scary. , in fact, there is nothing to fear.

In other words, they just deliberately adopted a tough attitude and wanted the Third Reich to retreat.

And when the Third Reich was not frightened, the Gauls would probably have no choice but to retreat. Such a path.

As for the other Kingdom of Flanders, which deployed troops in the Rhine Demilitarized Zone, no one cares about their attitude.

The Kingdom of Flanders is just the younger brother of the Gauls.

Even Gao If the Lu people had to retreat in the end, let alone the Kingdom of Flanders.

On September 25, 1935, after receiving Hess's order, ten infantry divisions and two infantry divisions had already been prepared. Armored divisions set out from their respective temporary stations and openly entered the Rhine Demilitarized Zone.

On the east bank of the Rhine River, the Kingdom of Gaul and the Kingdom of Flanders did not deploy troops.

However, when the troops of the Third Reich appeared on the east bank of the Rhine River, At that time, this made the Gauls and Flanders feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.

On the west bank of a cross-river bridge, an infantry company of the Gauls was guarding here.

They built a position on the bridge and not only deployed heavy machine guns, but also Equipped with mortars. The pile of troops that appeared was a mechanized infantry company of the 2nd Armored Division of the Third Reich.

Fourteen Hyena infantry fighting vehicles and fourteen Hound armored personnel carriers had already arrived at the bridge.

"Sir, the battalion commander ordered us to cross the bridge within ten minutes. If the Gauls dare to open fire, kill them!"A signal soldier reported

"Tell the Gauls to retreat immediately. Otherwise, we will be rude!"The captain and company commander ordered

"Yes, sir!"The signal soldier replied.

When the Third Reich Army shouted, the piled-up Gallic troops remained unmoved.

"The first row to cross the bridge, take precautions. Second and third rows, cover!"The captain and company commander ordered

"Yes, sir!"All three platoon leaders answered.

Then, four Hyena infantry fighting vehicles and four Hound-type armored personnel carriers drove onto the bridge and drove towards the west bank.

The leading Hyena infantry fighting vehicle had a 20mm rapid-fire cannon. The Gauls' position had been targeted.

Once the Gauls opened fire, they would be hit by their firepower.

When the Gauls on the other side of the river saw this, they were equally frightened.
