On the evening of June 28, 1915, Island Nation's Army secretly set out from the mainland, escorted by the navy, to Southeast Asia.
On the morning of July 3, Island Nation Navy's Combined Fleet bombarded Hanoi, and Island Nation's Army 1st Division landed on Hanoi, encountering almost no resistance. Island Nation's Army occupied Hanoi that day.
On July 4th, Combined Fleet escorted Island Nation's Army 2nd Division to attack Saigon, occupying Saigon almost without bloodshed.
The French colonial officials who were originally ordered to wait for officials from Germany fled without saying a word. France doesn't have many regular troops in Indochina Colony, and the rest are almost all Security Forces composed of local indigenous people. Although Security Forces's troops numbered hundreds of thousands, they had no fighting spirit at all. After being attacked by the Island Nation's Army, they fled one after another. It can be said that the entire Indochina Colony, like a ripe peach, fell into the hands of the Island Nation people.
On July 5, the Island Nation's Army 3rd Division regiment attacked Malaya Colony, and 6th Division attacked Lion City. The Britain colonial officials and troops stationed here fled immediately without any resistance.
On July 7, Island Nation's Army 4th Division and 5th Division attacked Burma. The Britain colonial troops and officials stationed at Burma withdrew to India.
In just a few days, the entire Southeast Asia seemed to have fallen into the hands of the Island Nation people. Although, at this moment, the Island Nation people only occupy a small part of the area. However, their attacks were unstoppable. When Britain and France colonial officials and troops give up resistance, these colonies will soon fall into the hands of Island Nation people.
Even the Island Nation people themselves did not expect that they would win so easily and occupy so much land at once. Some radical Island Nation's Army generals even shouted the slogan of marching on India and Australia, demanding that these two important colonies should also be defeated in one fell swoop.
However, fortunately, the heads of the Island Nation government were not dazzled by the victory. They ordered the army to occupy these colonies as soon as possible, and then prepare to resist the Germany people's attack. At the same time, more troops and combat supplies from the Island Nation's Army were also sent to Southeast Asia. They know that once Germany launches an attack, Island Nation Navy cannot resist German Navy. By then, their homeland will be separated from Southeast Asia. In that case, they can only try their best to send more troops to Southeast Asia and transport more combat materials before the battle breaks out.
What Island Nation people did undoubtedly shocked the whole world. Almost all countries did not expect that the Island Nation people would be so bold and dare to seize the Southeast Asia colony at this time. Especially Indochina Colony, which has been transferred by French government to Germany. Even though the handover between the two parties has not yet been completed, the colony already belongs to Germany. What Island Nation people did was clearly a provocation to Germany.
Of course, Island Nation and Germany are already in a state of war. It is natural for them to launch an attack on Germany's colony.
Britain people are in the colony of Southeast Asia, although they do not belong to Germany. But everyone knows that after Germany defeats Britain, those colonies should belong to Germany. Island Nation people are simply trying to seize food from the tiger's mouth by doing this! What's more, Britain is still an ally of Island Nation. Although Island Nation has abolished the alliance between the two countries, what they did is undoubtedly a typical representative of ungratefulness! Naturally, this was spurned by the whole world.
However, Island Nation people have always been very thick-skinned and never care about criticism from the outside world. All they care about is whether they can get benefits.
Germany Capital Berlin, Royal Palace, Oscar's office. Empire's senior military and political officials gathered here.
The atmosphere in the office was a bit solemn. Emperor Qin Tian of the Empire, his face was ashen, as if a volcano was about to erupt. Empire's ministers all looked unhappy, and the military generals were even more indignant. Some people even have a look of eagerness in their eyes.
Originally, the only war left was the war against Britain. After that, there were almost no large-scale wars. This is undoubtedly very regrettable for the military generals. But now, Island Nation people are jumping out to provoke Empire. Isn't that asking for death? This also gave these military generals an opportunity to continue the war.
"Everyone, the entire Southeast Asia will probably fall into the hands of the Island Nation people soon. They will undoubtedly give Empire a slap in the face!" Oscar said coldly.
Originally, everyone thought that after Germany warned Island Nation, Island Nation would restrain himself. After all, compared to the powerful Germany, Island Nation is just a weak ant. However, Audacious, who did not expect that the Island Nation people would be like this, chose to take the risk and directly launch an attack on the entire Southeast Asia colony.
Although those colonies already nominally belong to Germany, or will soon belong to Germany. But Germany hasn't had time to receive it yet. Now, those colonies have fallen into the hands of the Island Nation people. This will not only be a huge blow to the reputation of Germany, but will also strengthen the strength of Island Nation people.
"The behavior of Your Majesty, Island Nation people is simply seeking death! Don't they know that they are offending Empire? Once Empire sends an army on an expedition, they will definitely be crushed!" Prime Minister Bülow also looked indignant. An ant actually dares to challenge a lion. Isn't that asking for death?
"Your Majesty, what the Island Nation people have done has dealt a huge blow to the Empire. We can no longer sit idly by. We must send troops to defeat the Island Nation people and take back all those colonies!" Foreign Minister Wachth also said.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Army Although the main force is preparing to fight Britain and destroy the guerrillas in Eastern Europe. But "Imperial Army can also deploy one or two legions for Far East's operations," Minister of War and Chief of Staff Feng? Falkenhayn said. In his opinion, deploying one or two legions is enough to defeat Island Nation. Although Island Nation's Army defeated Russians more than ten years ago, Island Nation's Army's strength has not changed at all compared to more than ten years ago. As for the German Army, although he has always been number one in the world, his strength has undergone a radical change.
"Your Majesty, Island Nation Navy are not strong. Except for the four 'Kongo-class' Battlecruiser, the rest of the battleships are quasi-dreadnoughts. The ship or Pre-dreadnought is nothing to worry about. Imperial Navy only needs to send a fleet to destroy them! "Field Marshal Count Tirpitz, the First Sea Lord is very confident.
