    Wang Yuze nodded, quite satisfied with Navy Minister Zhang Cheng's answer! He has never liked to get involved in specific tactical command. Although his soul has traveled back in time, he doesn't understand everything.  Moreover, he has not been on the battlefield in the past ten or twenty years since he became the emperor. If he directs blindly, it is very likely that the Chinese army will pay a heavy price for this.  Therefore, Wang Yuze has never interfered with frontline command. He believes that professional talents can do a better job than him. He only needs to grasp the general direction and make logistical preparations. That is enough!  He believed that the generals on the front line would definitely win for him!

    "How is the Chief of General Staff preparing for the war against Russia next spring?" Wang Yuze asked.  By tomorrow spring, the North American battlefield may have come to an end. By then, all China's energy will have to be put into the European battlefield.  There are other countries of the Allied Powers on the European battlefield. At the same time, it is difficult to say whether those so-called allies of the Allied Powers will be China's allies or enemies in the end.  If China wants to obtain maximum benefits after the war, it still needs to spend a lot of thought!

    "Your Majesty, there is heavy snow in Central Asia and Siberia now, and there is ice and snow everywhere. It is estimated that we will not be able to start the deployment of troops and supplies until around February, and this is only when the weather is good. If the weather is worse,  Then our war against Russia may have to be postponed further. The General Staff plans to invest the 3rd Army, 4th Army, 5th Army in the war against Russia, as well as the 1st Army, 10th Army and 10th Army on the Indian battlefield.  The 11th Army. When the time comes, the Indian battlefield will be left to the second-line troops and Japanese and Korean mercenaries. Our elite troops can be mobilized! In addition to these six armies, the Imperial Army is preparing to invest one hundred infantry divisions.  There are also one million Japanese mercenaries and 500,000 North Korean mercenaries. The total strength will reach 4.5 million! The Air Force will invest 6 wings, two of which will be air superiority fighter wings! Necessary  At that time, the Imperial Guard will participate in this battle!" said Marshal Cai Yun, Chief of the General Staff.  The Imperial Guard is an armored force formed by the empire. It has strong combat effectiveness. Although it only has 3 divisions and a total strength of more than 100,000 people, its combat effectiveness is far greater than that of a group army.  If the war goes unfavorably, the Imperial Guards will play a role in quickly breaking through the enemy's defense line and opening up the situation for the Imperial Army!

    "Four and a half million people? Three million imperial troops. This is almost half of the imperial army's strength!" Wang Yuze murmured.  Russia has a population of more than 100 million. One year after the war broke out, Russia has completed mobilization, at least more than 6 million troops.  However, in the early stages of the war, the Russian army was repeatedly defeated by the German army and suffered heavy losses.  As of now, there are only three to four million troops left at most.  In addition, Russia is the weakest industrial power among the Western powers. Although they have a large population, they are simply unable to arm a huge army.  The Chinese army launched an attack on the Russian army with three million elites, which was completely enough.  What's more, there are 1.5 million mercenaries. The combat power of these Japanese and North Korean mercenaries may not be worse than that of the Russian army!

    "Everyone, do you think it is necessary for the Imperial Army to continue to expand its army now?" Wang Yuze asked.  Although China now has tens of millions of troops, if China wants to defeat the entire Western world and become a world hegemon, its current military strength seems to be insufficient.  Russia alone has three to four million troops, and France and Britain combined have much more than this.  If Germany and Austria-Hungary also turn against China, China will face even stronger pressure.

    "Your Majesty, with the current financial resources of the empire, if the military feels it is necessary, it can expand its army!" said Cabinet Prime Minister Wu Tingfang.  Although, the government and the military always have to argue over military expenditures.  But now is a time of war. Everything is for the empire to win. The government and the military need to unite!

    "Your Majesty, the current strength of the Imperial Army is sufficient! When we achieve a decisive victory in the North American battlefield, we will have more than two million reserve troops, enough to cope with all unexpected situations!" Chief of General Staff Cai Yun  The marshal thought for a moment and then said.  Although military expansion will help increase the military's influence, it will also impose a serious financial burden on the empire.  After the war, China will definitely not retain so many troops, and it will definitely need to carry out substantial disarmament.  Although China's current military strength is a bit tense, if no accidents occur, Britain will be enough!

    "Well, let's not talk about this issue for now. If the General Staff feels it is necessary, it can start the military expansion plan at any time, and the government needs to fully cooperate!" Wang Yu said.  !

    "Yes, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Wu Tingfang and Chief of General Staff Cai Yun both responded quickly!

    "How are our allies doing lately?" Wang Yuze asked.  No matter what??Germany can also be regarded as China's nominal ally. Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire helped China hold back the main forces of Britain, France and Russia, creating favorable conditions for China to capture India and Australia, and to defeat the United States in North America.  If there are problems with Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, then there will be big problems with China's global strategy!

    "Your Majesty, both Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire have now turned to all-out defense! Although we have provided Germany with a variety of advanced weapons, including fighter planes, tanks and armored vehicles, German factories have also copied these advanced weapons and have begun to equip the troops.  . But Germany and Austria-Hungary are continuing their strength and have not devoted their main strength to attacking Britain, France and Russia. Obviously, Germany and Austria-Hungary are making their own plans!" Wei Zhiyong, director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, enters  Will report to Wang Yuze.

    "Hmph! Do the Germans want to wait for us to fight head-on with the Allies and reap the benefits in the end?" Wang Yuze said coldly.  No matter how firm an ally is, it is unreliable in the face of interests.  What's more, China and Germany became allies because they used each other, and this alliance is even more fragile!

    "Your Majesty, we do not rule out that the Germans do have this intention. However, our progress is very rapid now. As long as Germany and Austria-Hungary can hold back the main force of the Allied Powers for us, we will be able to win the final victory! Wait until  In the end, the Germans will find that the flag of the empire has been planted all over the world. Even if Germany retains its strength by then, I am afraid it will not be able to compete with the empire!" said Cai Yun, Chief of General Staff.  It is expected that China will soon annex India and Australia, and by then China's national power will be further enhanced.  And after China defeats the United States, it will be able to obtain a large amount of industrial equipment, capital and technology accumulation from the United States.

    By then, China¡¯s industrial level will definitely be able to reach a higher level.  At that time, China had the largest population in the world and occupied the most fertile land in the world. The oil in the Middle East, the grain and iron ore in India, and the agricultural products and mineral products in Australia would all become the guarantee for China to ascend to the throne of world hegemony!

    "Yeah!" Wang Yuze nodded, agreeing with Cai Yun's statement.  Let the Germans slowly conserve their strength!  In the end they will find that the entire world has been occupied by China.  After the battlefields in India and Australia are over, China can also march into Africa, although according to the agreement between China and Germany, Africa will be distributed by the Allies.  However, an agreement is only effective when it is followed. When it is not followed, it is just a piece of waste paper.  If Germany has been passive and idle, China can find reasons to refuse to fulfill the agreement it signed with Germany.  Anyway, the reason why the agreement was signed with Germany in the first place was just to stabilize Germany and allow Germany to continue to hold back the main forces of Britain, France and Russia.  Now, Germany's mission seems to be coming to an end.  Although the Germans have always been careful, they still completed this task very well.  This greatly reduces the pressure on China!

    Kaiser Wilhelm II and the German government also had very big ambitions. They were not willing to let Germany be restricted to the European continent, but the entire world had already been carved up by old colonial powers such as Britain and France.  Therefore, Germany began building its navy twenty years ago in preparation to challenge Britain's maritime supremacy.  With the help of China, Germany's naval strength improved very quickly, and it almost won victory.  If the British and Americans had not joined forces with the Germans in the North Sea Battle, the German Navy would have been defeated, but its main force could have been preserved.  Unlike now, there are only a few battleships left in the military port, acting as a fleet!  But even so, Kaiser Wilhelm II's ambition to rule the world did not seem to fade away.  Germany threatened China by negotiating a separate peace with the Allies, and obtained a large amount of advanced weapons and supplies from China.  Moreover, a large part of these weapons, equipment and supplies were not put into the battlefield, but were stored.  Obviously Germany is also very uneasy about China. They hope to fully preserve their strength and wait until China and the Allies fight head-on.  By then, they will still have enough strength to compete with China for world hegemony.  Therefore, facing a cunning and unreliable ally like Germany, China still has a long way to go if it wants to finally win the world war and become a world hegemon!
