Mediterranean Hegemony Road

It is difficult to recruit troops, although it is a headache, you can find a way to solve it, and the next training is really troublesome.

It doesn't matter if you don't know the language. German and Bulgarian are both big languages ​​in this era. There are many people who can speak these two languages. It's not difficult to get a translation together.

The real headache is the jungle battle. It is unrealistic to go directly to the Southeast Asian rainforest for training. If you encounter the rebels in advance, it will be the same as the British.

If you can't go to the rainforest in Southeast Asia for training, you can only do the initial training in the Balkan Mountains. After completing the basic training, you can go to the African jungle for actual combat training, and finally go to Southeast Asia for the final training.

It can be said that in the preparatory work, Bulgaria has done the most adequate.

Neither the Dutch nor the British have done so much training.

Now their attitude towards the rebellion is of two extremes, either with disdain or fear. It can be said that the psychological factor is the biggest problem between the British and Dutch armies now.

Knowing and knowing, Ferdinand didn't remind them of what he meant. If there was no advice from his peers, how could the strength of the Bulgarian army be highlighted?

The worse the performance of the British army, the less confident the London government will be, and even many politicians will directly equate the British army with waste snacks.

This will be very useful for future Bulgarian activities in international politics. Just thinking about the poor performance of the British War Secretary, the London government can't help but think twice.

If the media preached it again and instilled this awareness into the hearts of the British people, then the future British Empire would not want to make a difference.

A cannon fodder unit, anyone willing to participate? Without a sufficient army, it would be very good for the British to keep their existing colonies. If they wanted to intervene in international affairs, they had to rely on the navy.

Once the navy is over, the British Empire will collapse. This is an invisible conspiracy, just waiting for the final fermentation.

As soon as the conscription was over, Admiral Christoph began to have a headache. He had to select enough officers from these conscriptions.

The high-ranking officers are okay, he can do the work of a few retired generals and let them come out. It is also easy to recruit low-level officers. Among these recruits, there are also a large number of veterans and low-level officers, but the middle-level officers are not enough.

The army is a place to look at its achievements. It was not long after the World War, and the new generation of officers after the World War had not grown up, and these middle and high-level officers in the World War were all meritorious servants.

Most of them have gained a lot, not to mention the wealth, at least they have become the middle class, and it is difficult for mercenaries to attract them.

The lack of mid-level officers is only one aspect. The next jungle combat training will be even more troublesome.

The Bulgarian army had no experience in large-scale operations in Southeast Asia, and these instructors had to be drawn from colonial forces.

Looking at the list of weapons reported from below, Admiral Christoph almost fainted, as if he had traveled back hundreds of years.

The crossbow bolts are all present in the equipment, in addition to the flamethrowers, the field saber for the colonial troops and so on.

The most pitiful is the jungle field map. If he had such a thing, he would have sent it out long ago. Do you need to ask?

In the end, he had to make a regrettable decision. Even if the main force of the rebels was defeated, the mission would be completed. The "easy" work of paying the jungle fee would be left to the Dutch army behind!

Anyway, for the Dutch government, as long as the city is recaptured, it can give the people an explanation, they have never really ruled the jungle area.

When the big deal comes, they will support new tribal leaders and use the locals to beat the locals.

The cost of going deep into the jungle is too great. The key factor that determines the outcome is not the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, but the geographical conditions that are more important.

No matter how the Bulgarian army is trained, it is impossible to be more familiar with the terrain of the Southeast Asian region than the locals.

Terrain, climate, vegetation, and local creatures may all become helpers to rebels and enemies of mercenaries.

Don't even see the shadow of the rebels, and the poisonous insects and dysentery just lay down a large number of people, and that would be a shame.

...

There is not only one person who is also troubled by this. General Wavell, the new British commander-in-chief in Southeast Asia, is also facing the same problem.

Even his troubles are even bigger. These British soldiers are not so obedient. They have just started training, and they have "fallen down"!

It's not that one person or two people are sick. Everyone is sick in an established system, and a group and a division are sick collectively.

The number of British soldiers who have fallen ill in Southeast Asia has exceeded 200,000 and is still growing!

If this is really sick, then General Wavell doesn't have to think about quelling the rebellion, he will go home in advance, and the British Empire will give up Southeast Asia.

The real reason is cruel. The British officers and soldiers collectively resisted Wavell's training plan, so they fell ill at the beginning of the training.

The law is not blaming the public, and the same applies here. Wavell cannot use military law against so many people, or even kill chickens as an example. If they are not good, these old soldiers will mutiny.

Intimidation and temptation have no effect at all. It shows that people want to go home a long time ago. If being sick can make them mention retiring, maybe more people are sick now.

Had it not been for compulsory military service, the London government would have been unable to send troops. You must know that this is the Southeast Asian rainforest, and the casualty rate of fighting here is quite high!

Don't expect to be safe by surrendering. Entering the jungle, at least they must be able to withstand dysentery, otherwise they will die, and it is impossible for the rebels to provide them with effective medical assistance.

If this Southeast Asian colonial rebellion had not involved too many political factors, the losses would have been enough for the London government to abandon the colony.

As a master of military training, General Wavell was also a forceful soldier when he encountered a group of soldiers who resisted training!

No way, who made it rainy season now? It rains almost every day in Southeast Asia, and the British Army has never trained in the rain.

Once in a while, they can persist, just to advertise to the outside world how hard they train, but training in the rain every day is more than they can bear.

You must know that at the beginning of Wavell's training, many British officers and soldiers could not hold back and fell. One of the unfortunate ones contracted dysentery after falling ill, and the last one whimpered.

After a few unfortunate deaths, the British army was in a frenzy. No matter what order the commander gave, they were slack at work, which meant a bit of non-violence and non-cooperation.

Strong means, General Wavell is afraid to use, he still does not want to be shot in the back.

In the end, we can only reach a compromise with the soldiers, everyone will take a rest on rainy days, and then resume normal training on sunny days, but God knows how many sunny days there can be in the rainy season in Southeast Asia!

Once the rainy season is over, they will have to launch a counter-offensive, the politicians in London can ignore their difficulties, and the domestic political pressure cannot help the war continue.
