Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

While attacking Denmark, the Hans Empire also dispatched a team of 200,000 people and began to gather towards the border of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

At the same time, the Gallic Empire also gathered an army of more than 150,000 people on the border of the Kingdom of Belgium.

In the early morning of December 1930, 12, one hour later than the Hans Empire attacked the Kingdom of Denmark.

The large army gathered on the border between the two countries suddenly received an order from the domestic high command, asking them to attack the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Belgium.

The German and French soldiers who received the order, with armored units as the vanguard, broke into the territory of the two countries.

In just one day, they penetrated hundreds of kilometers and defeated two lines of defense.

It is worth noting that the Gallic Empire performed better than the Hans Empire on the first day of the war.

The Hans Empire broke into the Kingdom of the Netherlands for about 80 kilometers and defeated two lines of defense formed by about 9 Dutch troops.

However, the Gallic Empire directly advanced 110 kilometers, defeated 12 Belgian troops, and almost disabled all the Belgian troops.

This reflects from the side that the combat effectiveness of the Gallic Empire is not weaker than that of the Hans Empire.

However, the Gallic Empire's ability to achieve such a record was also due to the powerful armored forces of the Gallic Empire.

In fact, the vision of Gallic engineers is indeed trustworthy, although they occasionally have a fit and come up with some designs that are anti-human.

For example, the car's horn is installed on the turn signal pole, such as the car's central control is installed in the middle of the vehicle, etc.

But you have to admit that Gallic engineers have a vision that transcends the times.

For example, in the empire of Hans, his neighbor and ally. When they were still developing highly mobile light tanks, Gallic engineers went directly against their allies and designed the tanks to be very large and sturdy.

The Bataille B1 heavy tank is the whimsical product of this group of Gallic engineers.

A tank with 60 to 70 mm armor on the front and a certain tilt angle, equipped with a 47 mm tank gun and a 60 mm howitzer with a firing range of only 75 degrees and installed on the hull.

In the early days of the war, when all countries lacked anti-tank weapons, he was a big killer.

However, the convulsive ideas of the Gallic engineers still functioned normally.

They installed a machine gun turret above the tank turret.

Although it can protect the commander, allowing the commander to operate the machine gun on the roof while protected.

But the too-high body makes the Bataille B1 not suitable for hiding itself.

However, given his relatively reliable frontal armor, he can still cope with any situation on the battlefield.

For example, on the first day of the war, the leading troops of the Gallic Empire, under the cover of a large number of Bataille B1 tanks, directly chose to break through the Belgian defense line head-on.

The soldiers relied on the tall body of the tank to easily approach the Belgian trenches.

The Belgians knew very well that if they wanted to repel the Gallic Empire's attack, they had to destroy these tanks.

However, no matter what kind of weapon it is, it is difficult to destroy it effectively.

After all, the tanks are moving, and the artillery in the rear wants to blow up these tanks unless it hits directly, or the explosion point is very close to the tank.

However, the people of the Gallic Empire will not stand still and wait for you to explode.

Therefore, the artillery attack on the tank had very little effect.

At the same time, the artillerymen of the Gallic Empire had been paying attention to the situation on the battlefield. When they discovered that the Belgians wanted to use artillery to blast the tanks.

This group of Gallic Empire artillerymen immediately opened fire on the Belgian artillery positions.

After just a few rounds of artillery coverage, the Belgian artillery completely misfired.

Seeing that the war situation had begun to develop in an irreversible direction, the Belgian commander could only order a retreat.

However, the Gauls were not willing to let the Belgian army go and chased them directly.

When the first day of the offensive ended, the whole world was in an uproar.

On just the first day after the war, the Kingdom of Denmark only resisted for four hours before surrendering.

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg did not even resist. When the Hans Empire's army entered the national border, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg directly announced its surrender.

The Kingdom of the Netherlands, which chose to resist, lost 80 kilometers of territory and 50% of its domestic army was wiped out.

The Kingdom of Belgium was invaded by the Gallic Empire for more than 72 kilometers and lost % of its army.

The fighting power shown by the Gaul and Hans Empire frightened all countries.

In the early morning of December 1930, 12, the King of the Netherlands and the King of Belgium felt deeply that their domestic armies were unable to resist the attacks of the Gaul and Hans Empires.

The reinforcements from the John Empire will not arrive for at least three days.

According to the current progress, the two of them may not be able to survive the arrival of reinforcements.

Therefore, at 26:2 a.m. on the 26th, the kings of the two countries announced that they would give up resistance and stated that the royal family would go to the John Empire to form a government in exile.

At 3:08, the two kings boarded the cruise ship bound for John's Empire.

As for the two empires of Hans and Gaul, when they heard that the two kings had run away, the Supreme Command immediately ordered the soldiers on the front line to continue advancing.

And those soldiers who had been fighting for a day heard that the kings of the two countries had fled. They suddenly felt that their condition had recovered, and then continued to move towards the capitals of the two countries.

The rest is actually very simple. Just accept the territory of both countries.

The John Empire, which faced the European continent across the sea, was also frightened by the fighting power displayed by the Gaul and Hans Empire.

They also did not expect that the two old and new top army powers on the European continent could still create such sparks.

After being surprised, John Empire had to face a headache. That is whether we should continue to prepare for landing.

Now, John's empire had no allies near the sea in Europe.

This means that Empire John has lost the opportunity to land safely.

Now if you want to land on the European continent, a brutal landing battle is inevitable.

To be honest, Empire John did not want to devote its limited soldiers to the landing battle.

Therefore, the Prime Minister of the John Empire, Andrew Bonar Law, urgently stopped preparations to transport troops to the European continent.

At the same time, the Imperial Royal Navy was ordered to attack and teach those two countries that had not yet established a firm foothold in the Three Low Countries and the Kingdom of Denmark some lessons.

After receiving Andrew's order, Winston, then John's Imperial Sea Lord, immediately ordered the Royal Navy to attack.

(We all know Winston well. To avoid this, we use his first name instead of his surname.)

However, Andrew probably would not have thought that at the same time that he received the news of the surrender of the three Low Countries, his two opponents were still awake.

Millerand and Adolf prepared a huge gift for their guests.

They couldn't sleep without watching Andrew accept this gift.
