The modern war, has not only limited in the field ; In most of the time, gambling of outside is often more intense. 现代化战争,已经不仅仅局限于场内;在大多数时候,场外的博弈往往更加激烈。 The hegemony war starts from breaking out, Britain fell into passively, but that limited to the war ideological mode, was hit one to be caught off guard by Holy Roman Empire . 霸权战争从爆发开始,不列颠就陷入了被动,但那只是受限于战争思维模式,被神圣罗马帝国打了一个措手不及。 To the entire war, can only be the offensive advantage, cannot decide the final outcome directly. Was similar to the second war Germany first to sweep away Europe, finally dingy leaving the stage. 对整场战争来说,只能算是先手优势,并不能直接决定最终结果。就如同二战中德国先横扫欧洲,最终还是灰溜溜的退场。 The only difference is, the Soviet meat shield has not been born, the American wet nurses is a little girl. 唯一的区别在于,苏联肉盾还没有诞生,美国奶妈还是一个小女孩。 The allies are not powerful, Britain can only withstand the test alone. Britain is in luckily in peak condition, was not the World War II „being on the decline”. 盟友们不给力,不列颠只能独自承受考验。幸好不列颠正处于巅峰状态,不是二战时期的“日薄西山”。 But family property again how thick, must be attacked by the war. The price rises is also not anything, the key is the sea trade line is affected, causing domestic provisioning to be insufficient. 可家底再怎么厚实,也要受到战争的冲击。物价上涨还不算什么,关键是海上贸易线受影响,导致国内物资供应量不足。 Perhaps in the near term can also depend on the stock support, but the war was not one day two days can end, the stock will have one day of exhaustion sooner or later. 短期内或许还可以靠库存支撑,但是战争不是一天两天就能够结束的,库存早晚都有耗尽的一天。 Without the means that everyone the anticipation value to the royal navy is too beforehand high, absolutely would have no to consider the issue of trade line security. 没有办法,事先大家对皇家海军的期待值太高,根本就没有考虑过贸易线安全的问题。 If not for the capitalists perceived ahead of time the war aura, stored up some commodities, perhaps now does not rise in prices is so simple. 若不是资本家们提前觉察到战争气息,囤积了一部分物资,恐怕现在就不是涨价这么简单了。 Minister of the navy Swing Dean: „ Navy for the merchant ship escort, our warship numbers will be limited, must suppress the mainland alliance, the warship number that can take is limited. 海军大臣斯温丁:“海军会为商船护航,不过我们的军舰数量有限,又要压制大陆联盟,能够拿出来的军舰数量有限。 In order to safeguard the safety of merchant ship, best or makes the merchant ship strongly act, we unify to send out the warship protection security. ” 为了保障商船的安全,最好还是让商船集中行动,我们统一派出军舰保护安全。” Royal navy's performance in Malacca naval battle, has stirred the domestic great unrest. Although they publicized the clever trick of enemy repeatedly, but lost lost. 皇家海军在马六甲海战中的表现,已经引发了国内的轩然大波。尽管他们一再宣扬中了敌人的诡计,但输了就是输了。 Contrasts Japanese Navy, the royal navy is lucky, the British People most scolded them are the waste, not to they fastened „traitor” the big hat. 对比日本海军来说,皇家海军是幸运的,英国民众最多骂他们是废物,没有给他们扣上“国贼”的大帽子。 To win this war, to cast off head „waste” the hat, the royal navy must display in the following action well. 无论是为了赢得这场战争,还是为了摘掉头上“废物”的帽子,皇家海军都必须要在接下来的行动中好好表现。 May display to turn over to the performance, the practical problem that faces needs to be solved. 可表现归表现,面临的现实难题还是需要解决的。 The ships that British Isles pass in and out every day are thousands, light oceangoing steamer more than three figures, royal navy, even if sends out together, cannot protect. 英伦三岛每天进进出出的船舶数以千计,光远洋轮船都不下三位数,皇家海军就算是一起出动,也护不过来。 Especially the broken junction tactic that the enemy currently uses, does not fight a decisive battle with them. 尤其是敌人现在采用的破交战术,根本就不和他们决战。 Participates in the attack is the high-speed warships, battle efficiency how regardless of the time being, the speed is at least first-class. 参与袭击的都是高速军舰,战斗力怎么样暂且不论,至少速度是第一流的。 Must deal with these enemies, the ordinary warship cannot apply, only then a small number of warships can enter the war. 要对付这些敌人,普通军舰根本就派不上用场,只有少数军舰能够参战。 The underwater submarine was more troublesome. In this age without the sonar sensor, only if the distance contact, otherwise did not discover. 水下的潜艇就更麻烦了。在这个没有声呐探测设备的年代,除非是距离接触,要不然根本就发现不了。 Under this situation, even if the merchant ship can concentrate to act, the escort pressure is still serious. 在这种背景下,纵使商船能够集中行动,护航压力依旧沉重。 Trade minister Burns: „ Knight, concentrates to act the merchant ship together one time only exists in theoretically, comes occasionally also reluctantly, the centralism is each time impossible to accomplish. 商业部长伯恩斯:“爵士,将商船集中起来一起行动只存在于理论上,偶尔来一次还勉强,每次都集中根本就不可能办到。 It is not therefore the commodity, can since the same time transport/fortune, the special compaign will drag down the transporting velocity seriously. 不是所以的商品,都能够同一时间起运,集中行动会严重拖累到运输速度。 Especially some unpopular routes, can't one month of few ship, make others one year run one? 尤其是一些冷门航线,一个月都没有几条船,总不能让人家一年就跑一趟吧？ Our transport resources are not infinite, cannot withstand wastes. ” 我们的交通资源也不是无限的,经不起这么浪费。” The war is brutal, the original space and time English has also played the acrobatics of centralized transportation, is only the result is somewhat touching. 战争是残酷的,原时空英国人也玩儿过集中运输的把戏,只是结果有些感人。 Besides the specially important commodity, needs to concentrate to transport, the faction warship escort, other how is rapid how. 除了特别重要的物资,需要集中运输、派军舰护航外,其它的都是怎么迅速怎么来。 Without the means that strongly transported the warship escort truly to solve the safety problem, but the fleet concentrated to drag down the transportation efficiency, commodity that certain not suitable long time deposited, was directly rotten in the warehouse. 没有办法,集中运输军舰护航确实解决了安全上的问题,但船队集中起来拖累了运输效率,某些不宜长时间存放的商品,更是直接烂在了仓库里。 Other issues said that affecting everyone makes money is not good. In time of war human life is not most valuable, sea caught up with sea trade most sudden and huge profits time. 其它问题都好说,影响大家赚钱就不行了。战争时期人命是最不值钱的,偏偏海上又赶上了海上贸易最暴利的时候。 So long as the profit is big enough, the risk is not the matter. Does not need to escort personally, the capitalists naturally did not care about the adventure. 只要利润足够大,风险就不算事儿。又不需要亲自押运,资本家们自然不在乎冒险了。 Runs a lane-route, almost can gain 1/3 ships. The attack of enemy is fierce, is impossible to intercept all ships, even 1/10 interception not. 跑一趟远洋航线,差不多就能赚出三分之一条船来。敌人的袭击再厉害,也不可能拦截所有的船舶,甚至十分之一的拦截不了。 Goes to sea to encounter the probability that the enemy attacks each time, most also on several percentage points, can definitely bet the luck. 每次出海遭遇敌人袭击的概率,最多也就几个百分点,完全可以赌运气。 So long as runs four is not attacked and sunk, that is the blood gains. Even if really had the accident/surprise, the insurance company is capturing. 只要跑四趟没有被击沉,那就是血赚。就算是真发生了意外,还有保险公司兜着。 Naturally, the insurance company does not give for nothing. After the war breaks out, the insurance premium rubs rises upward, in any case you pay for whatever you get. 当然,保险公司也不是白给的。战争爆发后,保险费就蹭蹭的往上涨,反正羊毛出在羊身上。 After listening to the words of trade minister, Swing Dean's helpless beckoning with the hand of: „ If the fleet is unable to concentrate, we can only regret. 听了商业部长的话后,斯温丁无奈的摆了摆手:“如果船队无法集中的话,那我们就只能表示遗憾了。 The colony branch of enemy is broad, the royal navy set out them to shrink. Only if first captures these colonies, otherwise is unable to sweep clean these mice. ” 敌人的殖民地分部在非常广,皇家海军一出动他们就缩了回去。除非先拔掉这些殖民地,要不然根本就无法扫清这些老鼠。” Throws up one's job? 撂挑子？ No, this is the politics. Was different from the past, the political slogan can shout casually. The present is in time of war, the commitment that once makes is unable to cash, is equivalent to delivers to the political opponent hand the handle on own initiative. 不,这是政治。不同于以往,政治口号可以随便喊。现在是战争时期,一旦做出的承诺无法兑现,就相当于主动将把柄送到政敌手上。 Do not look that now everyone sits together, seemingly is grasshopper on a rope, but among the grasshoppers also has the competition. 别看现在大家坐在一起,貌似是一条绳上的蚂蚱,但蚂蚱之间也是有竞争的。 If really came across the issue, everyone is flings the pot to be quicker than anyone. Does not share joys and sorrows realistically, dead fellow daoist not dead this poor Daoist, is the political conventional operation. 真要是遇到了问题,大家都是甩锅比谁都快。同甘共苦不现实,死道友不死贫道,才是政治上的常规操作。 Captures the colony harbor of enemy, said simply, if really goes to carry out concretely, that in one single day cannot complete. 拔掉敌人的殖民地港口,说起来简单,真要是去具体落实,那就不是一朝一夕能够完成的。 The energy of Britain is limited, the existing colony defends reluctantly, opens the new battlefield obviously somewhat to feel embarrassed the person again. 不列颠的精力有限,现有的殖民地守起来都勉强,再开辟新的战场明显有些为难人。 Secretary of war Markus: „ The Cape of Good Hope is in imminent danger, the East African battlefield is the erosion thousand li (500 km), the empire in the business performance of Africa, bit by bit was being nibbled by the enemy. 陆军大臣马库斯:“好望角已经岌岌可危,东非战场更是糜烂千里,帝国在非洲的经营成果,正在被敌人一点一点蚕食。 Asia, the enemy launched the attack to Persia and South China Peninsula simultaneously, enemy has not concealed to the ambition of India. 亚洲,敌人同时向波斯、中南半岛发起了进攻,敌人的对印度的野心没有丝毫掩饰。 According to the information that the frontline collects, the Russia person also to the Afghan area increased the soldier, may launch the attack anytime. 根据前线搜集到的情报,俄国人也向阿富汗地区增了兵,随时有可能发起进攻。 The Persian government had requested reinforcements to us for the seventh time, if not send out the reinforcements, Persia defeats is only the time issue. 波斯政府已经第七次向我们求援了,如果再不派出援兵,波斯战败只是时间问题。 Naturally, we have the counter-attack. After the ceaseless efforts of Canadian Regiment, we have taken the most areas in Alaska. 当然,我们也不是没有反击。经过加拿大军团的不懈努力,我们已经拿下了阿拉斯加的大部分地区。 Because of the reason of national policy, the army has been maintaining the low military, now simultaneously many resort to arms, has exceeded our limit. ” 因为国策的缘故,陆军一直都保持着较低的兵力,现在同时多线用兵,已经超出了我们的极限。” The reason was really full, because the royal navy cannot play the proper role, now the lobster soldier assumed the key battle duty. 理由实在是太充分了,因为皇家海军没有能够发挥出应有的作用,现在龙虾兵承担了主要作战任务。 Simultaneously opens five fronts, even a front also wins total victories, such result does right by completely Great Britain's investment to the army. 同时开辟五条战线,甚至其中一条战线还大获全胜,这样的成绩完全对得起大英帝国对陆军的投入。 As for moisture, that does not need to go into seriously. The British government needs the news stability will of the people, the British People also need the news. 至于其中的水份,那就没必要深究了。英国政府需要好消息稳定人心,英国民众同样需要好消息。 Under this situation, any victory, is worth propagandizing wantonly. 在这种背景下,任何一场胜利,都值得大肆宣传。 Attacking and capturing Alaska is a good theme. 1.7 million square kilometers the land that falls to the enemy compared with Britain add much, the counter-balance later Great Britain gained mutually. 攻克阿拉斯加就是一个好题材。一百七十万平方公里比不列颠沦陷的土地加起来都多,相互抵消之后大英帝国还是赚了。 As for the difference between land and land, neglects directly and that's the end. So long as in the newspaper did not say how the general public can make clear? 至于土地和土地之间的差别,直接忽略掉就是了。只要报纸上不说,普通民众怎么搞得清楚？ Let alone, Alaska is not low in the popularity of Britain, has a laudatory name in the folk „yellow Jinzhou”. 何况,阿拉斯加在不列颠的知名度一点儿也不低,在民间还有一个美称“黄金州”。 Therefore the armed parade of Canadian Regiment, cannot be the parade, but is a great victory. 所以加拿大军团的武装游行,就不能是游行,而是一场伟大的胜利。 It is not concerned about face, but can also top „the war of transition”. Is comforts the popular sentiment to use in any case, blows a boasting also to might as well. 不要脸一点儿,还可以冠上“转折之战”。反正都是安抚民心用的,吹点儿牛皮也无妨。 „Army has not expanded 2 million, numerous colonizing regiments, how also......” “陆军不是已经扩张到了两百万么,还有众多的殖民军团,怎么还……” Does not need the ministers of the navy to speak the words, Markus hits to block the way: „ Your excellency expansion of armaments is to also require the time, 2 million are only the data on paper surface. 不待海军大臣把话说完,马库斯就打断道:“阁下扩军也是需要时间的,两百万只是纸面上的数据。 The war breaks out for a month, can in such a short time mobilize the countries of 2 million armies, the entire world only then such 2-3, and does not include Britain. 战争爆发才一个多月,能够在这么短时间内动员两百万军队的国家,全世界都只有那么2-3个,其中并不包括不列颠。 Army different Yu Haijun, you have the sufficient military expenses, the ordinary period is maintaining the big establishment. 陆军不同于海军,你们拥有充足的军费,平常时期都保持着大编制。 A month ago, the Empire Army only has 137,000. Now expands directly 2 million, was equivalent increased 14 times. 就在一个多月前,帝国陆军都只有13.7万。现在直接扩张到了200万,相当于增加了十四倍。 Such expansion, the military officer, is the weaponry, we do not have enough reserve. 这样的扩张,无论是军官,还是武器装备,我们都没有足够的储备。 The recruit who the optimistic point estimate, will recruit in the next two months can everyone attain a spear/gun, is a extraordinary achievement. 乐观点儿估计,未来两个月内征召的新兵能够每人拿到一支枪,都是一项了不起的成就。 Can initially form the battle efficiency in the year, that is God cares. Mobile military that in a short time we can deploy, are actually not many. ” 能够在年内初步形成战斗力,那都是上帝眷顾。短期内我们能够动用的机动兵力,其实并不多。” Flings the pot everybody to be able, the navy does not want to shoulder the responsibility, the army is not willing to carry this black pot similarly. Everyone's reason is very compelling, outwardly does not have any problem. 甩锅谁都会,海军不想承担责任,陆军同样不愿意背这个黑锅。大家的理由都很充分,明面上来看没有任何毛病。 The navy is unable to safeguard the sea trade line to be unimpeded, mainly because of the colony of enemy, without the means beats the broken junction fleet of enemy. 海军无法保障海上贸易线畅通,主要是因为敌人的殖民地在,没有办法干掉敌人的破交舰队。 The army is simpler, comes up to sell directly miserably. The expansion of armaments expanded, but the recruit has not entered the military compound mostly, a rifle is unable to safeguard every, how can have the battle efficiency? 陆军更干脆,直接上来就卖惨。扩军是扩了,可是新兵大都还没有进入军营,人手一支步枪都无法保障,如何能有战斗力？ Word has no interest, the listener intends. 言者无心,听者有意。 Prime Minister Campbell was stimulated, once industrial workshop of the world, a rifle is unable to safeguard now continually every, does this make one feel sad? 坎贝尔首相就被刺激到了,曾经的世界工厂,现在连人手一支步枪都无法保障,这让人情何以堪？ Without the means that the scale of British Army hundreds of thousands, have had the arm holding even, stockpiled hundreds of thousands spears/guns greatly again at the most. 没有办法,英国陆军的规模一直都只有十几万,就算是有武器储备,了不起再储备十几万条枪顶天了。 Even if thinks to want the expansion of armaments, who unexpected needs to expand so many. Especially hundred next year international frictions were too recently many, most of the time was noisy finished. 就算是想到要扩军,谁也预料不到需要扩充这么多。尤其是最近百来年国际冲突太多了,大多数时候都是闹闹就结束了。 According to the past experience, was always Britain attacks other country, had not been attacked by other country, at least dozens years did not have recently. 根据以往的经验,从来都是不列颠进攻别的国家,还没有被别的国家进攻过,至少最近几十年没有。 When the situation was tense, everyone responded. But in the time, where has helped the congressman who holds back late not to mention, light/only the capacity is a major problem. 等到局势紧张了,大家才反应过来。可时间上已经晚了,且不说哪帮拖后腿的议员,光产能就是一个大问题。 The normal years, Britain only needs the capacities of more than ten 200,000 spears/guns every year, can satisfy the demand of native army and colonizing army. 正常年月,不列颠每年只需要有十几二十万条枪的产能,就能够满足本土部队和殖民军的需求了。 Now the native expansion of armaments, the colony also expansion of armaments, presents the gaps of 5,000,000-6,000,000 rifles all of a sudden, how in a short time can make up neat? 现在本土扩军了,殖民地也扩军了,一下子出现了5,000,000-6,000,000支步枪的缺口,短时间内如何能够补齐？ The original space and time fights the period, because Britain the expansion of armaments is too quick, the weapon output velocity cannot follow, to be forced the order to the American. 原时空一战时期,不列颠就因为扩军太快,武器生产速度跟不上,被迫向美国人下订单。 Now not to mention, the only difference lies in the industrial capacity of Republic does not have, military production ability even might as well English. 现在就更不用说了,唯一的不同之处在于合众国的工业产能没有起来,军工生产能力甚至还不如英国人。 The Republic war industry is not good, other ocean alliance member nations, industrial that trash. Most countries, the weaponry is the pure import. 合众国军工不行,大洋联盟其它成员国,工业那就更垃圾了。其中绝大多数国家,武器装备都是纯进口。 This year has the military production ability, almost the nest in continental Europe, now is the enemy in Great Britain. 这年头拥有军工生产能力的,差不多都窝在欧洲大陆,现在都是大英帝国的敌人。 Under this situation, where does British Army from make so many spears/guns? Even smuggles, still has no smuggling peddler, has such big energy. 在这种背景下,英国陆军又从什么地方去弄这么多枪？就算是走私,也没有哪个走私贩子,有这么大的能量。 Let alone, must buy , is not only the weaponry, the following ammunition is the demand is also many. 何况,要买的不光是武器装备,后续的弹药同样是需求多多。 Perhaps by the defense capacity of Britain, does the little while to link the daily training ammunition of several million armies together, cannot produce. 以不列颠的军工产能,一起干会儿恐怕连几百万军队的日常训练弹,都生产不出来。 These problem solves, wanted the army to initiate counter-attack, that was a joke. Can stabilize the situation, that was opens hangs. 这些问题解决不了,要陆军发起反攻,那就是一个笑话。能够稳住局势,那都是开挂了。 Read the world map on wall, Prime Minister Campbell deep sighing, swallowed back to the words of mouth. 看了看墙上的世界地图,坎贝尔首相深深的叹了一口气,到了嘴边的话又咽了回去。 ...... …… The Near East area, attacks the fight of Persia to fire along with the Holy Roman army, Tsar government also quietly increased the soldier to the boundary area. 近东地区,伴随着神罗陆军进攻波斯的战斗打响,沙皇政府也悄悄的向边界地区增了兵。 Actually these armies are used to guard against the Persian to invade, prepares to jump to pick the peach at crucial moments, temporarily was unable to draw a conclusion absurdly. 这些部队究竟是用来防备波斯人入侵,还是准备在关键时刻跳出来摘桃子,暂时还不能妄下结论。 At least Colonel Seacrest does not make clear the home to do. Recently, he has requested a combat assignment to the home repeatedly, was rejected. 至少西克雷斯特上校搞不清楚国内想干什么。在最近一段时间里,他已经多次向国内请战,均遭到了拒绝。 Nowadays the young aristocrat is not easy, does not have the prominent status background, if no military exploit approaching body again, wants to become outstanding is not easy. 这年头中小贵族也不容易,没有显赫的身份背景,要是再没有军功傍身,想要出人头地也不容易。 The Far East battlefield even, that is the sticky business. The climate did not say badly, the key is the logistics may also have problems. 远东战场就算了,那是苦差事。气候恶劣就不说了,关键是后勤还有可能出问题。 What most tragedy was hits the Japanese military exploit to sell at a discount, wins should be, losing is guilty of the most heinous crime. 最悲剧的是打日本人军功要打折扣,赢了是应该的,输了就是罪大恶极。 Even if the government can the pain of mass frontline officers, not investigate the relevant responsibility, litigant are also embarrassed in the aristocrat circle mixes. 纵使政府能够体量前线官兵的苦,不追究相关责任,当事人自己也不好意思在贵族圈子里混。 This point, looked the combat report that the Far East area sends knows, the Russian force officers that is really goes all out again. 这一点,看远东地区发回来的战报就知道,俄军官兵那是真的再拼命。 Sticky business everyone does not like, Colonel Seacrest is no exception. Performs good deeds must divide the time, is not the battlefield can mix, best or looks for the fruit cake to pinch. 苦差事大家都不喜欢,西克雷斯特上校也不例外。建功立业也要分时候,不是什么战场都能够掺合的,最好还是找软柿子来捏。 When with great difficulty the hegemony war breaks out, Russian Empire joins the ocean alliance that the mainland alliance and English lead to make war, what a pity is proclaims not to fight. 好不容易等到霸权战争爆发,俄罗斯帝国加入大陆联盟和英国人主导的大洋联盟开了战,可惜却是宣而不战。 For a more further opportunity, the Russian force also falls over one another, the Afghan frontline naturally is most popular. 为了更进一步的机会,俄军内部也是你争我夺,阿富汗前线自然是最热门的。 Although the number of enemy are many, but the enemy many is also easy the score. Indian colonizing army are hanging the British national flag, the military officers are an English. 虽然敌人的数量多,但是敌人多也容易出战绩啊。印度殖民军可是挂着英国国旗的,军官都是英国人。 Rounds up, is about equal to is completely the British armed forces. Is stepping on the shoulder high-rank of English, really should not be too crisp. 四舍五入一下,约等于全部都是英国军队。踩着英国人的肩膀上位,实在是不要太爽。 What a pity Colonel Seacrest the chess misses one move, by status background limited, was lost to the competitor unfortunately, arrived at the Persian frontline. 可惜西克雷斯特上校棋差一招,受身份背景限制,不幸输给了竞争对手,来到了波斯前线。
