Tsarist Empire: Please call me Tsarist Majesty

Chapter 131: The Determination of the Oriental People!!

“The army strength of the Russian Empire is very strong, and the main reason is that their army standing strength is very large, which can be called the first in the world. However, the Russian Empire also had huge shortcomings. That is, their land area is too vast. So much so that their army has too many places to be armed. Especially in Europe, it is their key defense area. Their main armies are deployed in Europe.

The Imperial Russian Army in the Far East had only more than 200,000 men.

From this point of view, the Eastern Empire undoubtedly has a huge advantage. ”

War Secretary Arnold Foster seems to be very optimistic about the Eastern Empire.

“Don’t forget, the Russians built a large trans-Siberian railway, which has been completed and opened to traffic. Through this railway, our people can constantly transport troops to the Far East. So, can the Eastern Empire have more advantages? ”

Chancellor of the Exchequer Oschamberlain asked.

“No, Your Excellency, I still have a lot of confidence in the Orientals. The Russians even built the Trans-Siberian Railway. However, the capacity of the railway is limited after all. At the same time, send 05 troops to the Far East, which will take time. If the Toyo could seize the opportunity, at the beginning of the war, they would gather the main army to launch a fierce attack on the Russians, severely damaging them. Well, no matter how many troops the Russians reinforce the Far East next. It is very difficult for the Russians to turn the situation around! ”

Arnold Foster explains.

Austin Chamberlain nodded, acknowledging the explanation.

“In addition to the Army, what about the Navy? The Toyo people must also win at sea. Otherwise, their army could not have defeated the Russians. ”

Foreign Secretary Fitzmorris asked.

“The navy of the Toyo has also developed rapidly over the years, and they have built a powerful fleet with six battleships and eight armored cruisers as the core. Moreover, in our shipyard, two more battleships for the Toyo are under construction. If we now ask the Easterners to go to war against the Russians, the two battleships may not be able to catch up. It doesn’t matter, though. With the current naval power of the Orientals, there is still no problem in defeating the Russians.

The Russians have greatly reduced the pace of naval development over the years.

They focused their main energies on the development of domestic affairs.

The strength of the Russian Pacific Fleet, although not weak. But those ships are too old.

In the face of the advanced warships of the Toyos, there is almost no possibility of victory.

Even after the outbreak of war, the Russians mobilized warships from Europe to the Far East for reinforcements.

But how much combat power can the fleet have left after crossing most of the world? If the Toyo people can seize the opportunity, they can completely win a brilliant victory! ”

Lord Walter Kell, the Lord of the Admiralty, also had great confidence in the Orientals.

After all, today’s Oriental people can be regarded as students who never set the sun.

Not only the capital battleships are almost all purchased from the Empire where the sun never sets.

Even their admirals and high-ranking officers, many of them were cultivated in the Empire where the sun never sets.

The Imperial Navy thought that the student of the Oriental people was still very good.

That’s why I have a lot of confidence in them.

“Besides, we can also think of it as giving the Russians some trouble. For example, the Suez Canal is still under our control. We can close the Suez Canal and not open it to the warships of the Russians. Then, the warships of the Russians can only detour through the Cape of Good Hope in Africa. This will undoubtedly further increase their difficulty. If the Toyo people want to win, it will be even easier! ”

Lord Walter Kerr continued.

Arthur Belfort nodded repeatedly: “Very well, although we will not personally participate in the war against the Russians.” However, we can do what we can to provide more support to the Eastern Empire. For example, put up more obstacles for the Russians.

Provide intelligence support to the Toyos.

In addition, more new weapons can be provided to the Toyons.

In this way, it will be possible to ensure that the Orientals defeat the Russians and win the war.

At the same time, it can guarantee our neutrality. ”

The other cabinet ministers of the Sunless Empire also nodded repeatedly.

Hasn’t the Sun Never Sets Empire been like this all along?

“Then, formally note to the Orientals, let the imperial minister in the Oriental Empire, inform the people that the sun does not set, and start a war against the Russians as soon as possible.” If only they could defeat the Russians. Well, in the field of diplomacy, we will support them. At the same time, it will also provide more support to the Sun Never Sets Empire in all aspects! ”

Prime Minister Arthur Belfort said.

“Yes, Your Excellency, Prime Minister!”

Foreign Secretary Fitzmorris replied.

Immediately, the foreign minister of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets, Fitzmorris, personally sent a telegram to the imperial minister in the Eastern Ocean Empire, asking him to make a request to the Eastern Ocean Empire.

The minister of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets to the Eastern Empire called on Senior General Katsura Taro, Prime Minister of the Eastern Empire, and Jutaro Komura, Minister of Foreign Affairs, for the first time.

Formally made to them the request of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets.

Faced with the demands of the Empire where the Sun Never Sets, the Oriental Empire simply could not refuse.

As a dog raised by the sun never sets, can’t they refuse more when the owner has already given the order?

Don’t forget, as the master, the Sun Never Sets Empire also has a powerful military real 583 power. Especially the navy, it deserves to be the first in the world. If the Toyo dare to refuse.

Or rather, they dare to repent and disobey the orders of the sun that never sets.

When the sun never sets, the empire can plunge the orientals into a land of disaster.

For example, the sun never sets, people can randomly draw a fleet, tighten the belt of the Eastern Ocean Empire, and send the navy that was built with difficulty to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.

At that time, the Eastern Empire will not be further developed and powerful, and will become a world-class power.

I’m afraid that even my own safety cannot be guaranteed.

The Oriental people hope that, with the support of the Empire where the sun never sets, they will succeed in becoming one of the world’s great powers.

Therefore, Senior General Keitaro, Prime Minister of the Eastern Empire, immediately told the Minister of the Empire that the Eastern Empire would further accelerate the reorganization of armaments and start a war against the Russian Empire in the near future.

Moreover, he will do his utmost to defeat the Russian Empire.

The Orientals also knew very well that if they could defeat the Russian Empire, they would gain great benefits.

Therefore, they naturally have to do their best.

And the envoy of the Sun Never Sets Empire also said that the Sun Never Sets Empire will do its best to help the Eastern Ocean Empire, in addition to directly sending troops to the war, other aspects will vigorously support them…
