"You mean, the Prime Minister wants to invade England?" Zheng Sen sat on the large sofa, drinking whiskey and looking at Ribbentrop.

"Yes! The Ming Dynasty has no interest in occupying England, but we in Germany do.

In England under German rule, there will never be another wave of opposition to the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, tariffs on Ming Dynasty goods will also be reduced.

More importantly, this move by Ming Dynasty will win the friendship of Germany. We will try our best to coordinate and let the Nordic people open the market to Ming Dynasty.

Oh... By the way, we will also open ports in England, and Ming Dynasty will choose one or two as military ports for Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, we will also transfer the military garrison rights and let Ming establish military bases in England.

The legal status of military bases is the same as that of the Ming Dynasty." Ribbentrop was well aware of the unspoken rules of the Ming Dynasty.

Generally speaking, negotiations are concluded in a private and relaxed environment. As for the negotiation table, it is just the place where the terms are read out and signed.

"The conditions are very favorable, but for such a big matter, I have to report it to the Generalissimo. It is definitely not something I can decide!"

Zheng Sen smiled, the price offered by Deutsche was indeed attractive.

However, it is obviously not enough. Ribbentrop and Asch obviously do not understand the Ming Dynasty very well.

What the Ming Dynasty wanted was that there would never be a unified empire in Europe, instead of a behemoth that annexed France, Austria, and England.

While Zheng Sen was talking with the Germans in Berlin, the Ming Dynasty fleet entered Porto Port.

Porto's port construction is still in its early stages, and the existing berths can accommodate some destroyers.

Not to mention battleships and aircraft carriers, not even cruisers can dock.

But this is not a problem for Li Xiu. The weather in the Atlantic Ocean is very good these days.

The airship unloaded tons of supplies onto the deck of the aircraft carrier.

Although this kind of supply is slower, it is the only way.

As for supplying battleships and cruisers, they have to rely on supply ships.

The Ming Dynasty's logistics was relatively troublesome because the Ming Dynasty's army needed a lot of things.

Not only do we need supplies such as water, but we also need fuel, ammunition, and other supplies.

Even pipe damage requires some spare parts to cope with failures that may appear somewhere on the ship.

These require supply ships to transport them directly from the dock to the warship at sea one by one.

After three days of rest, the Ming fleet was once again replenished.

After annihilating the British fleet, there was no opponent of the Ming fleet in the Atlantic Ocean. The battleships headed north, heading straight for London.

"Commander, let's fight. The navy has left Bordeaux and gone north. They will use their cannons to fire a few shots at the mouth of the Thames, and the British will surrender.

The brothers have been preparing here for a month, and they are seeing all the equipment being brought in. The large-caliber mortar is about to be installed. The British have surrendered. What should we do?

It’s not all work in vain!”

A group of young officers from the Third Division gathered around Cao Wenzhao and talked gibberish.

Cao Wenzhao's head hurt from the noise, but there was nothing he could do.

The surrender of the British was basically a certainty.

After the British surrendered, the British soldiers in Gibraltar had no need to hold on. They even said that they should welcome the British surrender.

Because no matter how you look at it, Gibraltar is a dead place.

The Spanish surrendered, and the Ming Dynasty had cut off Gibraltar's supply channel from the land route.

The Royal Navy of the British Empire was completely destroyed, and Gibraltar's sea lanes were destroyed.

The only thing that can support Gibraltar now is the supplies that were stationed in Gibraltar before the war.

Once these supplies are gone, Gibraltar will be finished.

"Commander, let's fight. Even if we fight for ammunition, we will still win."

"Commander, the First Division and the Fourth Division made a lot of money in Russia. The Second Division also fought very well in the Middle East. Our brothers have no military exploits, so how can they have any dignity in the future?"

"Teacher, let's fight!"

"Yes! Commander, let's fight. The war is about to end, but we haven't gained any military merit yet."

The officers' chattering voices once again dragged Cao Wenzhao back to reality.

"Fuck me, fight!" Cao Wenzhao looked at the pair of fighting eyes and gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

In the past, his status in the army was second only to Ao Ye and Man Ye. Now, a large number of newly promoted generals seem to have a tendency to catch up with him, which fills Cao Wenzhao's heart with a sense of urgency.

"Promise!" the officers agreed in unison excitedly.

"Commander, since you have decided to fight, but there is no instruction from the commander, if you do this...will you..." The chief of staff was still mature and prudent.

"Chief of Staff, what do you mean?"

"Chief of Staff, you are also from our Third Division. Are you looking at the merits of our Third Division being taken away by others?"

"Chief of Staff, you can't do this."

"Chief of Staff, why are you turning your elbows outward?"

The officers began to clamor, saying that the Ming Dynasty's army ranks first in military merit. No matter how talented you are, it's all in vain if you don't have military merit.

Seeing their colleagues' military exploits, the officers of the Third Division's eyes turned red.

There are no promotions or promotions yet, because the war is not over yet.

When the war is over, the 1st Division and 4th Division, these meritorious troops that fought bloody battles on the battlefield, will definitely be reused.

Even those troops with temporary names may not be disbanded after the war because they fought bravely.

The Ming Dynasty has a large number of armies. If they don’t disband, what will be disbanded will be...!

Of the three field divisions before the war, needless to say, the first division was the absolute main force.

The Second Division had nothing to do at first, but later it was transferred to the Middle East and did well.

Half of the Fourth Division stayed in the Western Region, and the remaining half participated in the Russian War.

The beating was so painful that it was boiling with blood and fire several times!

Only the third division and only two or three battalions participated in the war.

Participating in the war in the final stage was nothing more than practicing with the Swedish army.

Now he has been transferred to Spain and has been preparing for more than a month. Now that he is almost ready, the other party is about to surrender.

This made the officers and soldiers of the Third Division extremely angry, but there was nothing they could do.

Now that the division commander was finally persuaded, the chief of staff came out to disrupt the situation again.

"Shut up!" the chief of staff shouted, and the regimental commanders below quickly shut up.

"Do you know what the consequences will be if you disobey the commander's orders?

Do you know the consequences of the division commander giving the order without authorization if the commander-in-chief fails to order a fight?

Everyone is shouting and killing for military glory, have you ever thought about it as a division commander?"

The chief of staff's words made everyone lower their heads.

Indeed! The consequences of sending troops without permission from the commander-in-chief are too serious. Even if Cao Wenzhao is a close confidant, nothing will happen to him.

"Chief of Staff, what do you think we should do? We can't let our brothers just wait.

The navy has already left the port, and in a few days it will be bombarded when it reaches London, and London will definitely surrender."

"It's not that we don't fight, but that we have to find a way. Of course I can't take the initiative to attack, but it doesn't mean that our army can only be beaten without fighting back, right?"

After the chief of staff finished speaking, he glanced at Cao Wenzhao with evil eyes.

"Chief of Staff, you mean that if the British army takes the initiative to attack, we will have reason to attack, right?"

"Yes! The British have come over, but we are not allowed to fight back?" the staff elder smiled like a fox.

"Understood! Chief of staff, division commander, we understand. You two just stand up, I will definitely make things smooth for you."

When the group leaders heard this, they immediately became energetic.

They all left the division command post and returned to their respective troop deployments.

Cao Wenzhao looked at the chief of staff and smiled: "Old man! I have to look at you at the critical moment. These people only know how to fight and kill. They want to put me on the fire."

"Commander! I think this matter should be reported to the commander truthfully. As for the small tricks done by the subordinates, let them do it.

Remember! Telegrams sent to the commander-in-chief must be secret. Do not send messages directly to the commander-in-chief through the General Staff Headquarters."
