    Today¡¯s update.  The second update is late, so I can't wait to wash my clothes. The United States annexed North America, and Germany occupied Western Europe and Northern Europe. Within a few months, the Axis Powers forcibly attracted 14 European and American countries to join, making  The power of the fascist state expanded rapidly.  At the Empire State Building in Beijing, the joint cabinet meeting had just ended, and Tang Shaoyi and Tian Renjie immediately conducted three further consultations.  "Your Majesty's health has been getting worse and worse recently!" Tian Renjie's mood dropped every time he thought of Emperor Tianming's deteriorating health.  Tang Shaoyi couldn't help but sigh and said: "Your Majesty is already seventy-one years old. News came from the inner court that your Majesty's health is getting worse day by day!" Tian Renjie sighed: "Your Majesty has recently begun to ennoble the princes.  The three princes, except for the eldest prince who stayed in the capital to take charge of education and science and technology, the other twenty-two princes were all named princes and took office in the fiefdom! " Tang Shaoyi suddenly said: "Could it be that!  "It's your Majesty." Tian Renjie hurriedly signaled Tang Shaoyi to keep quiet.  He said softly: "That's right! Your Majesty is preparing the arrangements for Daxing!" Tang Shaoyi said: "There will be a change of cabinet in a few months! The provincial senates across the country and the upper and lower houses of the empire are busy preparing for the new Ran Ge  Election! I, an old man, have no chance of being re-elected this time!" Tian Renjie said with a bitter smile: "Only if we guys go down, the newcomers can come up!" Tang Shaoyi said: "His Majesty has said it more than once.  The old man wants to see the new cabinet transition smoothly! I think this should be His Majesty¡¯s last wish!¡± Tian Renjie said: ¡°Now the whole world has been turned into a pot of porridge, and most of Europe has been occupied by Germany, and the whole of North America has fallen.  It's in the hands of the Americans! I think it will turn into an inter-provincial war!" Tang Shaoyi said with some concern: "France is gone, but the empire is still following it." Tian Renjie nodded and said!  : "There are risks! However, I seem to have seen your Majesty's intention!" Then he added: "Your Majesty, nominally, the empire gives the impression to other countries that it is a big war treasure. In fact, I think your Majesty is trying his best to make these few  The Axis Alliance has offended all countries in the world! " "Oh?" Tang Shaoyi asked: "This seems very similar to your Majesty's style! Although the countries are jealous of the empire's war wealth, they hate the Axis military aggression more than the loss of their territory.  "Heartland Alliance!" Tian Renjie said: "I just saw through your Majesty's strategy! If the empire joins the war too early, it will not be enough to consume the strength of all countries in the world. At the same time, after all, they are all wars between white people.  If they are beaten hard, it will be difficult for them to form long-term national hatred! With the empire's war capabilities, this world war can be quickly ended. However, the white countries may not accept the empire's favor after the war, and may even unite against the empire.  If they can generate enough national and national hatred during this world war, it will be much easier and more convenient for the empire to preside over the world order after the war!" Tang Shaoyi nodded and said: "You said  That's right! But I'm worried about something else!" "What?" Tian Renjie asked.  Tang Shaoyi continued: "I seem to feel that both Germany and the United States are brewing a conspiracy!" "Conspiracy?" Tian Renjie asked: "Aimed at the empire?" Tang Shaoyi nodded and said: "Germany has not concentrated all its efforts on attacking the British mainland. On the surface,  It was for the sake of the empire that we stopped because of the threat of war! But I know that Hitler was very superstitious about the empire, especially because he was afraid of the emperor and believed that the emperor was an omnipotent saint, who was what Hitler considered a prophet!" Tian Renjie was shocked,  Asked: "Are you saying that Hitler has never violated the empire's bottom line of interests because he is afraid of the emperor?" Tang Shaoyi nodded with certainty and said: "I'm thinking that Hitler is waiting for the opportunity!" "What opportunity?  ?" Tian Renjie asked hurriedly.  Tang Shaoyi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he replied with a frown: "He is waiting for the emperor to make a grand appearance!" "What?" Tian Renjie stood up and looked at Tang Shaoyi in shock.  Suddenly said: "So, once the emperor is in power, it will be the time for Hitler to launch a full-scale war?" Tang Shaoyi nodded and said, "I think the Americans think so too!" Tian Renjie sat down slowly and calmed down.  , and said slowly: "It should be like this! Hitler stayed in the empire for a long time. He can be considered a China expert, he should be able to feel the emperor's talent and strategy!" Tang Shaoyi sighed: "Elites from European and American countries also  It¡¯s not for free! Of course they can¡¯t fight.?Your Majesty, but once the emperor becomes popular and the eldest prince ascends the throne, the young new emperor will naturally not be their opponent!  " Tian Renjie added: "Coupled with the change of the imperial cabinet, it is almost time for us veterans to retire!  In their eyes, the young cabinet is obviously much easier to deal with than us!  Then he sighed: "It is indeed one."  What a huge opportunity!  " Tang Shaoyi said: "The qualifications of the eldest prince are far inferior to those of the emperor. After the prince ascends the throne, military and political affairs will definitely be left to the cabinet!  So the heavy burden falls on the young cabinet. I am a little worried about these young people!  " Tian Renjie said: "It's useless to worry!  After all, we can't hold on for them forever!  Zhuge Liang actually did everything himself, but ended up working himself to death, while others could not get exercise and the country perished!  While we still have a few years to live, the long-term solution is to take a back seat and help new people grow!  " Tang Shaoyi nodded and said, "I seem to understand your Majesty's true intention!  " Tian Renjie asked: "Speak quickly!  " Tang Shaoyi suddenly said with profound meaning: "It may not be a good thing to just go with the flow!  I think His Majesty is preparing to cause some setbacks to the new emperor and the new cabinet!  " "Frustration?  .  Tian Renjie was puzzled, but Tang Shaoyi stopped talking. Tian Renjie rolled his eyes in anger.  One by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one  One by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, in the Houses of Parliament in London, British Prime Minister Churchill and Deputy Prime Minister Macdonald, who had just concluded the military meeting, returned to the mad office.  "How is the situation in China?" Churchill asked the Vice Prime Minister directly after sitting down.  After MacDonald sat down, he said: "Military Intelligence reported that the Emperor of China has health problems! There has been no imperial meeting for a long time!" Churchill asked again: "Is there any movement from the Crown Prince?"  McDonald replied: "Currently, the crown prince supervises the country. However, the crown prince generally only handles matters related to the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Technology. He rarely interferes with other matters. They are all handled by the cabinet."  Churchill nodded and said: "It seems that China is really going to be a constitutional monarchy!" McDonald nodded: "It looks like this! However, the power in China is still in the hands of the emperor, even if the Emperor delegates power to the cabinet.  China¡¯s traditional thinking still puts imperial power first.¡±  Churchill sighed: "I know the Chinese Empire very well, but I still hope that their regime can transition smoothly."  "Why?" Macdonald asked. "It's very simple." Churchill said: "The Chinese Empire is now our last hope. Once Emperor Tianming dies, there will be a short-term power vacuum in China.  If his princes are unwilling to lose their power, with the support of a group of ministers and ministers, they will definitely seize power, which will destabilize the Chinese regime and even lead to civil war.  "McDonald sighed: "You are right!  The change of emperor's political power in the past dynasties of China will set off a bloody storm!  "We have to pray for a smooth transition of power in China." Churchill said: "Although I hate the disintegration, division, and civil war in China, China has decided not to be in chaos. If they are in chaos, our British Empire will be in danger." Macdonald  Na said: "Yes!  Without China, the empire would not be able to compete with Germany and the United States!  Then he said angrily: "Damn the Chinese, didn't they have enough war money during World War I?"  Now I¡¯m still thinking about a windfall!  The ambitions of Germany and the United States will definitely make the Chinese regret it, and some of them will be heartbroken!  " Churchill said: "You are right!  How could Germany and the United States be willing to let China dominate!  Sooner or later they will retaliate against China!  " "I hope this day comes sooner." McKenna said: "As long as Germany and the United States go to war with China, then it will be the time for the British Empire to counterattack. " Churchill nodded and said: "That's right!  With China¡¯s population, wealth, and military strength.  They are number one in the world in everything, and the United States and Germany combined are no match for China!  Once China joins the war, the final victory will definitely belong to us!  "McDonald suddenly said: "Why don't we take the initiative and attack Germany or the United States? This will induce Germany and the United States to attack the empire's homeland, thus attracting China to join the war!  " "No". Churchill directly denied it. He said: "The only thing we have to do now is to pretend to be pitiful!  Let the Chinese know that the empire has been beaten to the point of losing its strength!  Otherwise, if the Chinese know that the empire still has fighting strength, they will not mind delaying it for a few more days to consume us!  ¡± ¡°Damn Chinese¡± Mai??Donner slammed the table and said angrily: "At this time, they are still trying to plot against us!" Churchill did not answer, and only had a wry smile in his heart.  This is how it is between countries. Whether they are allies or enemies, they can consume each other more.  He will do it without hesitation, without any calculation.  ??After several months of German air raids on Britain.  Hitler believed that only the air force could maintain the balance on the Anglo-German battlefield, so he transferred the idle German Army to the Eastern Front to prepare for the war against Soviet Russia and unify Europe.  On March 22, 2018, spring arrived in Europe.  It is also the second love period of the German ** team.  The devastated German General Staff assembled an unprecedentedly huge force, including 1,000 divisions, 6 tanks, and 7 tanks from its slave countries.  guns, 10,000 transport vehicles and four aircraft.  A total of 60,000 people were killed in a sudden attack on Soviet Russia. The military operation was codenamed "Barbarossa." At this point, the Soviet-German War broke out.  Soviet Russia called this war the "Great Patriotic War." It was also called the Soviet-Russian Patriotic War.  Except for the German ** team.  Troops from Italy, Hungary and Romania also launched attacks against Soviet Russia at Hitler's request.  Another country that participated in the attack on Soviet Russia was Finland. Because Soviet Russia invaded Finland when it established the "Eastern Front."  To regain the land it lost in the Winter War two years ago, Finland stopped attacking after regaining the land lost to Soviet Russia in the early stages of the war. In addition, the Finnish army also participated in the siege of Leningrad.  It¡¯s called ¡°Continue the War.  The conflict lasted for several years.  The first few weeks of the war were undoubtedly a disaster for the Soviet Red Army.  Due to Stalin's serious errors in estimating the time and direction of Germany's war, and the fact that many Red Army generals were killed or exiled during Stalin's counter-revolutionary operations, which seriously weakened the Soviet army's combat and command capabilities, Soviet Russia's influence on the German Empire  The blitzkrieg was caught off guard, resulting in heavy losses for the Soviet army in the early stages of the war. The "Eastern Front" that the Soviet Union started to establish before the war was run over by German tanks, and a large area of ??land was lost. Large cities such as Minsk in Belarus and Naopu in Ukraine successively  Occupied by Germany, Leningrad Fort, the second largest city in Soviet Russia, was also surrounded, and the German troops came to Zhensk.  What is worth mentioning is the Battle of Kiev in September. The Soviet Southwest Front Army was encircled and annihilated on a large scale in Kiev. The number of Soviet prisoners captured alone reached as many as 10,000. This battle was also the largest encirclement and annihilation war in human history.  , this battle led to the collapse of the Soviet Union's southwestern defense line.  ??Although the Germans played extremely smoothly at the beginning.  But Plan Barbarossa itself had major flaws, the most serious of which was its logistics.  The traffic on Soviet Russia's land is far less advanced than that of Germany. Coupled with the strategic depth of Poland's huge territory, this means that if the German army moves too fast.  Logistics supplies will not be able to keep up in time.  So feel free to swallow the years.  The beginning of the month.  The Kremlin is already in sight, and the Soviet government and foreign embassies have moved to Kuibyshev, which is kilometers east of Moscow and today's Samara. However, on September 7, Stalin still held the Revolutionary Day military parade in Red Square as in previous years.  The troops were put into the battlefield just after being inspected. When the German offensive was stopped on August 1, their logistics supply line had reached its limit. Coupled with the continuous destruction of the Soviet guerrillas behind the front, the offensive of the frontline troops was unsustainable.  , the myth of the German invincibility was shattered.  When the Barbarossa plan was first formulated, it was believed that the Soviet Red Army would collapse before winter came.  But the real situation is that Soviet Russian troops have always been able to organize effective resistance.  This miscalculation seriously affected the Germans' plans.  In addition, the Soviets adopted a scorched-earth policy during their retreat. They fortified the walls and cleared the country, which made the Germans' logistical problems even more acute.  When winter came, a large number of German soldiers died due to the harsh Soviet winter and Soviet counterattacks.  When the German army occupied most of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, the biggest tragedy in the war began: the siege of Leningrad.  When the German Empire and Finnish troops arrived at the outskirts of Leningrad from the south and north respectively, Hitler ordered that Leningrad must be "cleared from the face of the earth" and the entire population in the city was wiped out.  The Germans began to encircle Leningrad to cut off aid from outside, using artillery bombardments and air bombardments.  The siege lasted for days, and in an atmosphere of hunger, cold, and fear, about 40,000 civilians died¡ªyounger than 10,000 of them from starvation.  But Leningrad never surrendered to the Nazis.  The famous musician Shostakovich composed the world-famous "Seventh Symphony", also known as the "Leningrad Symphony" for this purpose to express the heroic struggle of the Soviet military and civilians in the defense of Leningrad and the sacrifices for this purpose.  A huge sacrifice.  After enduring the cold winter at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, in July, the German army gave up attacking the Baku oil-producing area controlled by China, and did not violate China's bottom line.  However, it was changed to attack Stalingrad and present-day Volgograd in the Caucasus and Volga regions.??The German forces were never able to fully capture the city and suffered heavy losses during the offensive.  Hitler's indecision, senior generals' dissatisfaction with the change of plan, and excessively long supply lines.  As well as the tenacious resistance of the Soviet army, the street fighting in Stalingrad became a nightmare for German soldiers.  The Battle of Stalingrad went down in history as the bloodiest battle in history. The losses on both sides were heavy, with about 10,000 people dead, 60,000 of them civilians.  After the Battle of Stalingrad, the German army gradually lost the initiative on the battlefield, but the Soviet Russians also failed to form an effective offensive force due to excessive war losses.  The Soviet army was beaten to a pulp by the German army.  There was no counterattack capability at all, and only with the help of China could they block the German front.  Hitler was unwilling to defeat even a small Soviet Russia. How would he attack China in the future?  As a result, Hitler issued an order to the German Eastern Front Command, requiring the German army to destroy the Soviet army.  Connect the national border to the Chinese border.  In order to encourage the German army to take the lead, Hitler promoted Manstein to Marshal of the German Army and hoped to annihilate the Soviet army through an active attack.  The Kursk area in the protrusion naturally became Manstein's target of choice.  Because this protrusion extends like a fist from the Soviet front line, and its front is about ten miles long.  The bottom was less than Qinmi. Manstein planned to encircle and annihilate the entire Soviet heavy group in the salient through a coordinated pincer attack from the north and south wings.  And the success of this battle will shorten the German front and greatly increase the mobility of the German troops.  Manstein's plan was supported by Field Marshal Kruger, commander of the German Army Group Center, and General Zeitzler, chief of staff of the Sixth Army Headquarters.  However, it was also opposed by General Model, commander of the Third Army, and General Guderian, director of the armored forces.  The opposition is justified." In the spring of the same year, Germany suffered huge tank losses on the Eastern Front. Moreover, the main Chinese No. 3 Lynx main battle tanks and the No. 4 Chinese exported old tank Jiangmao main battle tanks have been proven not to be Soviet.  Compared with the Soviet Union, Guderian believes that the monthly output of the new generation tanks and the No. 6 tanks is only 10,000 units and 10,000 units, respectively.  The Kursk attack will cause great losses to the tanks, and his plan to adapt the armored force will also go bankrupt.  I am the little fat man in the wilderness, Lao Pan surfs the Internet, Honggang Ao, a book friend, training ants is a knife, and I don't sleep at three o'clock.  Waiting for a generous reward
