"This is normal. In the editor's preparation, everyone is simple rifles, machine guns, and mortars. Although there will be a gap in equipment levels, they are somewhat on the same level. As the scale increases, when heavy artillery, tanks, and armored vehicles are added, the situation is completely different. Second-rate countries cannot equip these combat power multipliers in large quantities!" Fisher nodded.

"So how about the top leaders of the Japanese Army?" Fisher thought for a while and asked.

"Their European dispatched troops have better levels than intermediate officers, who give people an inexplicable sense of arrogance and are very vain. But the senior management is better, at least they can formally and have a desire to change. They work hard to learn various experiences and examples on the battlefield, and have some research on new technical equipment. However, due to the national heritage, it is probably not easy for them to promote these in their own country." Lieutenant General Valentine said.

"It seems that the Japanese are very cruel in dealing with prisoners?" Sir Fisher asked.

"It's so. They regard the killing of unarmed people as glory, which is a very barbaric act. I admit that the army on both sides has acted as killing prisoners, but the massacres are only Japanese, but those guys have been retribution. It is said that the 9th German Army, opposite the Japanese army, has issued an order that the entire army will not accept the surrender of the Japanese army." Valentine said.

"So what is your evaluation of the Japanese's overall combat effectiveness?" Sir Fisher asked.

"If we look at the division-level scale, the combat effectiveness should be stronger than the same number of Russian and Austro-Hungarian troops. Of course, this is limited to the current batch. The newly recruited troops from Japan are not as good as the Russian troops, because many of the previous batch of grassroots officers participated in the Russo-Japanese War. The new recruits are basically recruits. They can't even use the machine guns in their hands, let alone how to save their lives in the trenches." Valentine said.

"But at least it's much stronger than the Turks, aren't we? We won't encounter any strong enemies in the Balkans," said Sir Fisher.

"The premise is that the Bavarian army does not go south," said Valentine. "If we want to quickly take Constantinople, it is best to take action on both sea and land, and it is best to be equipped with some elite British and French troops to provide artillery and armor units. Then the Japanese provide infantry."

"Very good." Fisher nodded and stopped talking. He now had to consider his naval issues and how to use the limited chips in his hands to exchange for more benefits. From the current situation in the Mediterranean-Black Sea, the Allied Mediterranean Fleet has been severely damaged. According to the Royal Navy, they have no more than 2 main ships. In this way, the French fleet can easily complete the suppression mission. Even if it takes some time to start the battle, there are only 3 super fearless ships that the Allied can use. Therefore, it is actually not necessary to continue to retain two Fuso-class battleships in the Mediterranean. It would be better to replace these two Fuso with other warships.

The Japanese government still attaches great importance to the arrival of the British delegation. After the British delegation arrived at Nagasaki Port, Japanese Prime Minister Katsutaro and Nishimotoji Kotoshi met with the British delegation. After a brief greeting, General Valentine put forward the suggestions and requests of the British government.

"Are we required to provide an additional 4 divisions for future Balkan battlefields?" Kane Taro said softly. "If I remember correctly, our division has 25,000 people and four divisions have 100,000 people. According to the current French military advisor, the strength of these four divisions is equivalent to 8 French divisions. This is a lot." (The French division was 14,000 before the war. As the war continued, the French division level was reduced to around 12,000 people!)

"If I remember correctly, even if this time is not counted, we have invested a total of 180,000 people in the European battlefield. So far, there are 4 divisions fighting on the European battlefield. Our troops are even less than the Belgian Legion." The King of Nishiyuanji who was standing next to him said tacitly.

"Haha, are you starting to quarrel?" General Valentine sneered in his heart, but there is one thing that is right. The Japanese army is really the third largest on the Western Front! After all, the Belgians only have 6 divisions! And the division is much smaller than that of the Japanese army. Of course, the so-called third army is incomparable to the investment of Britain and France. However, the total number of troops dispatched 180,000 troops is not easy for Japan, a maritime country, especially after just occupied part of the Dutch East India region! Many places still have to leave garrisons.

"However, as a war that determines the destiny of the country, this investment is far from enough." Fisher, who was standing beside him, spoke without waiting for General Valentine to answer.

"Is the war that determines the destiny of the country? It is indeed the case for Britain and France." Kanetaro said calmly. This attitude made the British very upset!

"Isn't it for Japan?" Sir Fisher said with a surprised expression. "Where did you get the confidence that if we fail, then you can survive? This idea is too naive? Even a first-class country like England and Germany in this world needs allies, not to mention that the national strength can only be called third-class Japan? Americans are very strong, right? But how did you before? The United States, which pursues isolationism, hits walls everywhere around the world, and has no influence after leaving America!"

"However, Germany has no interest in the Far East, right? Otherwise, they would not be able to sell the Pacific islands with very important locations to the United States. They are now voluntarily withdrawing from the Far East competition." Nishinoji Komatsu didn't mind Fisher's sarcasm, because the latter was right. If we only look at national strength and industry, Japan is really a third-rate level! The first-rate is naturally English and German, and the second-rate is France, well. That's right!

"That was before, if Germany won, the whole of Europe would tremble under the iron hooves of the Germans. Germany would eventually become a world power, and they would expand their bodies around them. As the German Emperor said, Germany would use a sword to fight for more land for the plow. Even if they did not have a plan to dominate the Far East, they would definitely not mind getting a colony." Sir Fisher said.

"Especially when this colony is not difficult to obtain and is large in size. For example, Kalimantan Island!"
