Fleets continuously transported Austro-Hungarian and German troops from Europe to South Africa, and then began to advance unblockedly into the South African inland. ￡∝Prince Christian Smoutz wanted to resist, but he only had a light infantry with only 6,000 people and a militia with a lagging equipment of 20,000 people. What he had to face was an army with more than 100,000 people, with planes, tanks, cannons, and armed to the teeth. The South African army was simply unable to resist the enemy's attack.

Fearing the rebellion of South Africans, the British authorities allowed South Africa to retain a light infantry army with a small number and lack of heavy weapons. Now the British finally paid a heavy price for their sinister colonial policy. In just less than half a month, the German and Austrian coalition had occupied Pretoria, Johannesburg and other places. Smozzi fled to Cape Zoutun with some government members. Former Prime Minister Herzog, who advocated separation from Britain, formed a new puppet government in Pretoria. By early June, with the fall of Port Elizabeth, only Cape Zoutun, where the British gathered, was still resisting.

The French were also about to collapse. More than one million French troops were hiding behind the Maginot Line of Defense, watching the German and Austrian armored groups galloping across the heart of France, as if they were entering a no-man.

People have finally understood that the result of the war now depends on the number and performance of tanks, aircraft, and the number of troops are no longer the decisive factor of the war. When the tank clusters of Germans and Austrians soared in the depths of France, and more than 5,000 combat aircraft were rampant over France, the British and French coalition forces, which had a number of more than 3 million, were left to be ravaged.

The French called on his allies to put all their domestic planes into the battle to defend France, but the British decided to abandon their allies and leave most of the planes on the ground to defend the coast of their cities.

As a result, France's defeat was inevitable.

Sa Shijun received a new appointment. He needed to go to Germany to receive two new aircraft carriers ordered by the Chinese Navy. He was removed from the position of captain of the "Fujian" and promoted to commander of the newly formed China's Second Air Fleet. The appointment letter issued by the Navy was conveyed in telegrams, and the text on it was boring and monotonous, the same format as the previous one when he was appointed as the captain of the "Fujian". Despite this, this appointment still made him very happy. After nearly thirty years of lingering in the navy, he finally had the opportunity to command a powerful fleet alone.

Major General Cheng Yaoheng was appointed commander of the 3rd Air Fleet newly formed in Austro-Hungary. Not everyone has the chance to become the commander of a fleet. There are many luck in this, and of course, it is also a reward for the two of them fighting the Japanese army in Zhenjiang.

Admiral Chen Shiying held a small banquet in Durban to see off the two men and some of the fleet staff. After Cheng Yaoheng received warships in Austria and completed training in the Mediterranean, he would pass directly through the Suez Canal and then go to the East African coast to join Chen Shiying. But the task in front of Sa Shijun will be much more difficult. How can the fleet he led break through the layers of British blockades and reach southern Africa?

They took an Austrian light cruiser to carry out escort missions and left Durban with a return transport fleet and headed for Dar es Salaam, and then transferred there to Vienna first, and then headed to Germany. The return transport ship was filled with various ores plundered by Germany and Austria from South Africa, and had a deep draft. It took the fleet from Durban to Dar es Salaam for seven days. After they got ashore, the whole city was celebrating the victory and inquire about it. It turned out that the French had signed an occupation agreement with Germany, Austria and Italy, and France surrendered.

It is amazing news. France, which lasted for more than three years in the last war, was defeated in a month, which shocked the whole world. People had to re-examine the army strength of Germany and Austria and had to admit it in frustration. In terms of army equipment and training, as well as military thought, Germany and Austria have left the world far behind.

The Italians got involved when France was about to end, but their attack on the French border was beaten to the point of blood. The French could not beat Germany and Austria. But they were still more than enough to deal with the Italians. Even so, the Italians appeared at the Paris Peace Conference as a victor.

At Dar es Salaam Airport, a Vienna Imperial Airlines large passenger plane "Africa Star" was rotating its propellers and preparing for takeoff. At this time, the entire German-Austrian-ruled area was celebrating victory. The "double emperor combination" had unified Europe, and only the British were still continuing to resist. Zhuyashvili was also frightened, and the Soviet army temporarily stopped its attacks in the Caucasus and Ukraine.

The German Emperor extended an olive branch to the British, but Churchill, who replaced Chamberlain as the new British Prime Minister, was arrogantly claiming that Britain would continue to fight!

The plane quickly glided on the long cement runway, then jumped sharply, and slowly climbed into the air. After the war broke out, Africa's air transportation was interrupted for half a year, but as the British cleared out of North Africa and East Africa, the route was restored. The British lost the colonies of North Africa, but relying on their maritime advantages on the Atlantic Ocean, they occupied the colonies of German West Africa and Namibia, and finally found some psychological balance.

The next morning, the group finally arrived at Vienna Airport. The passenger plane landed at Arish Airport on the Sinai Peninsula and refueled. It stopped for two hours. Several black cars drove over and took them to the Chinese Embassy in Vienna.

Sa Shijun and Cheng Yaoheng learned about the situation. It will take two months for several aircraft carriers to complete the installation. However, the two escort cruisers built for the fleet have already started trial sailing, so they need to come in advance to take over the future work.

The Chinese ships ordered from Germany, Austria and Italy were directly supervised by two chiefs and deputy directors of the Shipbuilding Bureau of the Admiralty, Tang Deqing and Han Yuheng of the Shipbuilding Bureau of the Admiralty. These ships included ordering an aircraft carrier and two cruisers from each of Germany, Austria and Italy, and ordered four ocean-type destroyers and ten submarines from Germany, Austria and Italy, with a total construction cost of more than 700 million marks.

With the signing of the German, Austrian, the French armistice agreement, the French war ended. During World War I, the French hero Marshal Betton established a new government in the southern French city of Vichy. Under the armistice agreement, three-fifths of French territory, including the capital Paris, and all French ports along the Atlantic coast will be occupied by the Allies before the end of the war.

The Allies clearly underestimated the British's determination to resist. As Lee Hayden expected, the British government rejected Germany's proposal of peace and decided to continue fighting alone with the Allies.
