On September 17, 1942, the Japanese-Soviet War was still in full swing. The Japanese combined fleet continued to besiege the Soviet Russian army's Vladivostok fortress, and the joint corps of the Japanese Kanto Army and the Korean army also approached Vladivostok from land step by step. Hundreds of thousands of troops from both sides fought fiercely on the Amur Peninsula. In distant Europe, in the center of unipolar hegemony, people's attention was completely attracted by another major event, that is, the crowning of the new emperor of the German Empire.

This extremely solemn coronation ceremony, both in terms of specifications and influence, far exceeds the coronation ceremony of the old emperor William II 54 years ago. After the orthodox coronation ceremony, nearly 100,000 soldiers from Germany and its allies held a military parade under Brandenburg's gate, and more than 800 fighter jets made the entire city surrounded by deafening roar.

The next day, Emperor William Little went to William Bay in northwest Germany to attend a special ship review ceremony held for the crown of the new emperor. Mainly with the German Navy, a total of 400 ships from 16 countries participated in this unprecedented ship review ceremony. The layman watched the excitement, and in the eyes of insiders, this was no longer just a polite ship review ceremony, but a preview of the large-scale mobilization of the navy of the Allied Powers. The ships of various countries arrived in Germany in a whitewashed manner, with only one month apart from receiving invitations to arriving in Germany. Considering that some ships set off from the opposite side of the Atlantic Ocean, and naval ships from Southeast European countries such as Croatia and Romania need to bypass most of Europe, this assembly speed is already very efficient!

Because of the nearer voyage, the Irish referee fleet has been stationed in Wilhelmshaven for two weeks. As a die-hard ally of Germany, Ireland basically came out this time, which also gave the outside world an opportunity to re-evaluate the strength of the Irish navy.

The flagship of the Irish Navy is still the old German-made battlecruiser "Belfast". Although this warship, born in the fearless era, is equipped with many advanced auxiliary equipment, its combat methods and combat performance are obviously no longer suitable for the needs of modern naval warfare. The aviation team represented by the winner-class aircraft carrier "St. Patrick" is the real sword of the Irish Navy. After the end of the Pacific War, the navy has fully realized the core position of aircraft carriers in modern naval warfare.

At this point, the Germans decisively terminated the construction plan of the Frederick-class rapid battleship and the Schanehorst-class battlecruiser. The six Frederick-class battleships and four Schanehorst-class battlecruisers that had started construction were demolished on site, except for the two with low construction progress, the rest were all rebuilt aircraft carriers. By the end of the 1930s, the German Navy had more than 50 regular aircraft carriers in service, and there were 22 large aircraft carriers of more than 30,000 tons. This data left the Japanese Navy, which was working hard to build aircraft carriers several streets...

As a member of the German royal family, King of Ireland and Wales, Xia Shu and his brothers boarded the German royal yacht "Hohenzollern" and attended the sea reading squad with Emperor William. Four hundred large and small ships made the huge William Bay seem unprecedentedly crowded. The emperor's yacht took more than three hours to complete the entire reading squad. During this process, Xia Shu's eyes wandered back and forth between Emperor William and the review ship. He was not jealous of Little William, who was standing at the peak of his life, but was a little envious and worried. His arrogant elder brother spent most of his life waiting to rule the world.

For a moment, although he had already taken over the military and political power of Germany more than ten years ago, he was constrained by the emperor and parliament and could not impose his personal will on the strategy of governing the country as he pleased. Regent and ruler were like the difference between the first mate and the captain. A few months ago, William had just celebrated his 60th birthday. Although his health was good, living for more than ten or twenty years would not seem a problem, but this age was like the dusk of the day. No matter how beautiful the sunset or the sunset was, it could not change the fact that the sunset was rising. If you want to realize your long-cherished wish and establish your true achievements, you must hurry up.

When looking at the world map today, the first thing that can pose a threat to the foundation of the German Empire is the local population, the population, resource structure, resource reserves, Japan, which has strong military strength and huge industrial potential. When William was still the crown prince, he once said that he would return the ambitious Japanese to the state before 1932, so that they would be just a regional power like the United States today.

The second is the special Soviet Union. Its "red magic" that is very charming to the hearts of the people made European countries deeply worried during the two economic crises in the 1920s and 1930s. In order to curb the development and expansion of the Soviet Union, the Germans invested huge manpower and material resources every year to maintain their huge Eastern European defense line. Even so, in the armed conflict between the Caucasus and the Greater Persian region, Germany and its allies still tasted the power of the Soviet-Russian iron fist. In recent years, it has only been their expedient approach. Once Japan is solved, their next target will definitely be the Russians.

With the great power of the crowning ship reading style, the Allied Navy made significant adjustments in deployment under the leadership of Germany. The Allied Navy Joint War Fleet was renamed the Allied Navy Grand Fleet, and the head of the rotating presidency of the Allied Powers served as the nominal commander of the Grand Fleet. The Allied Powers Joint War Command was changed to the General Staff Headquarters of the Allied Powers. The Atlantic Squadron, North Sea Squadron, Mediterranean Squadron and Indian Ocean Squadrons, which were originally divided by region, were changed to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Fleets, and the 5th Fleet was added.

This adjustment has no warning, and there are reports that the German Navy will reserve a large amount of combat supplies in naval bases in the Persian Gulf and South Asia. People have speculated that the first important move of Emperor William after he ascended the throne was to use force to eliminate the hidden dangers of the Japanese Empire's challenge to Germany's unipolar hegemony.

However, at a secret meeting where only the heads of allies participated, William Xiao, who had newly ascended the throne, made it clear that unless the security of Germany and its allies were threatened, Germany would not take direct force against any of them before the end of the Japan-Soviet War. However, Japan's military power was gathered in Northeast Asia, and the white man regained Australia a return. At the request of the Australian government in exile, Germany would support the white resistance to return to Australia, and if necessary, Germany would send volunteer troops to the war. If allies support and participate in the German-led aid operations, they will receive compensation for war damage according to World War II standards and share the various rewards promised by the Australian government in exile. Allies that do not participate in the aid operations must remain well-intentioned and neutral, otherwise, Germany will impose severe sanctions on it.

Most allied countries expressed their participation in the German-led aid to Australia operation. Only the prime ministers of the two major southern European countries politely rejected the invitation of the new German emperor. They probably did not expect that Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire's actions to bypass the sanctions of the League of Nations in recent years have already made the arrogant Germans hold their breath. Before traveling thousands of miles to guide Australia, they will definitely deal with these two close neighbors with frequent small actions.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire is one of the traditional European powers, spanning Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and Southern Europe, with a vast territory and a large population. The prosperity of the mechanical and instrument manufacturing industry, the strong steel and arms industry, ranks in the top four in the world, with a wide range of resources and a huge mobilization of total troops. It is also the top four in Europe, with a wide variety of agricultural products, ranking first in Europe. The advanced technology of heavy artillery weapons produced by the Skoda Arsenal is far ahead of the European powers. After the World War, this increasingly declining behemoth was

For example, the dead tree is in spring, the continuous development of the industrial economy and the continuous increase in the scale of trade have caused many problems in this society. The profound dual monarchy country showed a different peace and tranquility in the past more than 20 years after the war. However, the hidden dangers were not eradicated, but were only covered up by the illusion of singing and dancing. Under the suggestion and instigation of Germany, several influential Austrian civil society groups spoke out for the nations in the backward areas of the empire for being "lazy, stupid and dull"

, dragged down the Austrian Kingdom, with the Germans as the main body, and even called on Austria to join the German Empire to form a great German Empire. The Hungarians had long been accusations and criticisms, but this time, the official level of Hungary responded very strongly. They petitioned the Austrian Emperor and demanded that the Austrian government severely punish the restless people who undermined the unity of the country, otherwise they would consider holding a referendum to decide whether the Hungarian Kingdom would continue.

He continued to respect Austria as the monarch and went independence from the empire. He heard this news, all walks of life in Austria were in an uproar, and the Hungarian people supported the Hungarian government's statement. This was not chaotic enough. Independence was achieved in 1882, and during World War I, the Serbs, who were re-occupied by Austria-Hungarian Empire, took the opportunity to start independence. The situation in the Slavic ethnic settlement areas within the empire became turbulent. At this point, Austria's army was busy maintaining domestic order and had no time to take care of affairs outside the empire.

The Kingdom of Italy was established after Italy's unification in 1861. It was the first country to control the entire Italian peninsula after the Roman Empire. After more than half a century of operation, Italy in the 1940s had rapidly developed from a third-rate country with a lot of agriculture, economic, political and social problems in the early days of its founding, and it had rapidly developed into a quasi-first-class power in the industrial and military fields. Its per capita income reached two and a half times the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Its main industrial indicators entered the top five in the world, and it was committed to improving its country's influence and voice in the international field. Unlike the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Italy was a single nation-state with Italians as the absolute subject. Domestic contradictions were greatly alleviated with the development of social economy and the improvement of political structure. Its weakness lies in the scarcity of local resources.
