The German General Staff and the Austro-Hungarian General Staff divided the combat scope. The German army was responsible for the long front from Belarus to Ukraine and the Soviet Union, and also had to deal with possible attacks by the French. The Austro-Hungarian side was responsible for the battle from the Donets region to the Caucasus, and at the same time fought with the British army in North Africa to compete for control of the Suez Canal area.

The Italians were still waiting and watching, but Mussolini had no intention of turning to the Allies, but was just looking for a suitable opportunity to join the war.

After the war, France built a solid Maginot line of defense composed of a 50-kilometer reinforced concrete fortress group along the Maas River, and Germany also built a 20-kilometer-depth "Hindenburg" defense line on the Alsace-Lorraine border. If both sides want to attack the other side, they must forcibly attack the opponent's fortress group, which is a disaster for the attacking side. Therefore, neither France nor Germany dared to launch an attack easily. The 700,000 German troops and one million French troops stayed in the trenches each other, forming a "sitting war".

Germany has long formed an excellent reserve system. Every adult citizen over the age of 18 has received military training. After the first mobilization order was issued, the German army quickly expanded to 3.5 million people. The Austro-Hungarian mobilization system also follows Germany. The goal of the first mobilization is to expand the size of the army to 2.2 million people within two months.

Before the war, the German and Austrian General Staff believed that the Soviet army had a total strength of about 180 divisions, about 200,000, but in fact, the total strength of the Soviet army was as high as 4.5 million, which was much higher than the initial expected number.

Within just twenty days after the outbreak of the war, the Ukrainian capital Kiev was declared to fall. The 650,000 troops of the Ukrainian Republic lost nearly half of the troops, and the Don Cossacks also lost their troops and generals, relying solely on the cities and Kuban areas along the Azov Sea coast to resist. The Caucasus Federation also lost more than half of its territory in 20 days. Relying on Sochi, Sukhumi and Batumi, several Black Sea coast ports were barely resisting with the support of Austro-Hungary.

At Hofburg Palace, Austrian Lee Haydn was furious. Before the war, he had warned the garrisons in Sinai to pay attention to strengthening control of the Suez Canal. However, due to the hesitation of the Austro-Hungarian defenders, the British still sank dozens of merchant ships into the canal before declaring war, blocking the waterway of the Suez Canal.

The Austro-Hungarian Navy was blocked in the Mediterranean and could not enter the Indian Ocean for at least three months.

General Forop, the Governor of Sinai, was removed from office. The emperor ordered the Seventh Army, the First Marine Army, the North African Corps stationed in Libya and the newly formed Ninth Army to attack Egypt with the 12th German Army, demanding that the British army in Egypt must be eliminated within thirty days.

The Crown Prince Carl was appointed commander-in-chief of the Austro-Hungarian Army on the Eastern Front, responsible for the battles on the Don River and the Caucasus.

Admiral Wang Chongwen rushed to Qingdao on the third day after the British declared war. His first naval fleet is currently in Qingdao. With the help of the Germans, two Chinese battleships, the "Zhenhai" and "Pinghai" have been repaired, and dozens of warships from the German Far East Fleet, including five "Bavarian"-class battleships, are anchored in the port.

The train drove into Qingdao Railway Station at 7:30 in the morning. Major General Chen Honglie, the captain of the "Zhenhai", made a special trip to the railway station to greet him. The group got into two cars and prepared to go to the port after breakfast. They had just walked into a hotel when they suddenly heard a sound of cannons sounded over the port.

"Maybe it is conducting an emergency air defense exercise." Chen Honglie told him. "In recent months, the Germans have organized several live-fire exercises like this to test and improve the air defense capabilities of the port."

"Gentlemen, please go to the private room upstairs!" The hotel is very large, with six floors, mainly guest rooms on it. However, the restaurants located on the first and second floors also sell breakfast. The lobby manager is a young man in a suit. When he saw them coming in, he took the initiative to greet them and invited them to eat upstairs.

At this time, the sound of anti-aircraft guns became more and more violent and loud, and the sound of the motor of the plane roared in the sky.

"No, it doesn't seem like an exercise." Wang Chongwen said. He quickly walked to the window and looked out the window. He looked up at the sky at the port, where black smoke was bursting. "Go to the top of the building, go to the car and get the telescope!" He turned around and said to the adjutant behind him.

The group ran up to the roof, where they could see the sky at the port from afar, and there were clusters of black smoke blooming under the blue sky. More than a dozen small black dot-like planes were flying over the port and flying into the city.

"What's the situation?" The people watching were full of doubts. Many people ran towards the port and looked up at the sky curiously from time to time. The planes began to turn around and dive towards the port. With the sound of violent explosions, bursts of smoke rose from the sky above the port.

"It should be the Japanese, it's broken, our warship!" Wang Chongwen shouted and began to run towards the stairs. The whole Qingdao was in chaos, and thick black smoke rose from the anchorage of the warships. In the entire port, anti-aircraft guns fired black anti-aircraft shells and exploded fire balls in the blue sky.

Wang Chongwen's car was blocked on the way to the port. The Chinese admiral simply gave up the car and braved the bombs dropped by the Japanese planes and ran towards the port. By the time he arrived at the naval base in Qingdao Port, the bombing had ended. Fighters taking off from Weifang, Jiaozhou, Pingdu and Gaomi Airports had already begun air combat with Japanese planes over the port, chasing and driving Japanese bombers.

The port was in a mess. The battleship "Polarmenia" had sunk, and the rest and the warship decks were also burned. The pier was also blown up, and the faces and hands of the burned sailors were blistered by the fire, their skin became charred, and many wounded were lifted out of the lifeboat. The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, mixed with the stench emitted from the black fuel burning smoke from the water around Ford Island.

Admiral Hugo Domannik, commander of the German Far East Fleet, stood with a blue face and a waist on his back, looking up at the sky, while scolding the Japanese for their shameless attacks.

The Japanese sneak attacked Qingdao Port before declaring war on Germany and Austria. When the Japanese ambassador to Berlin handed over the declaration of war to Germany to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Japanese Navy's attack had already begun. The German Far East Fleet was basically paralyzed, two battleships were sunk, and two other battleships were also severely damaged, only the "Baden" was almost intact. In addition, the Germans also lost one cruiser and three destroyers, and two other supply ships and two merchant ships also sank in the air strike.

This attack also made many people suddenly realize that the world of aircraft has now become a world of inconspicuous aircraft, but the planes that seem inconspicuous are enough to destroy a huge fleet.

The German Emperor delivered a national speech, denounced the Japanese's "despicable" sneak attacks. The German emperor vowed to repay the "blood debt" committed against the Germans ten times and a hundred times in the future. But at present, the Germans had no choice but to deal with Japan. Because the British had blocked the sea passage, the German fleet was out of reach and was unable to reinforce the Far East.
