"Your Excellency, under the current circumstances, I think we should ask Your Excellency Robert to lead the army to return to Ireland to resist the invasion of the United States and Canada." In the case of the Irish army's repeated defeats, the Prime Minister Gemmasp told Harry Sen suggested. Now, there are less than 60,000 Irish troops on the island of Ireland, and their combat effectiveness is much lower than that of the US-Canada Expeditionary Force. If Ireland does not find a way in other ways, it will be defeated by the US-Canada Expeditionary Force sooner or later thing.

"You make me think again, the withdrawal of troops from Wales is really important. We must proceed with caution." Harrison said. In northern Wales, there are a full 140,000 Irish troops. Harrison believes that with the addition of this group of troops, it will no longer be empty talk to resist the invasion of the American and Canadian Expeditionary Forces. However, the withdrawal of troops from northern Wales would also bring great damage. First of all, the more than 100,000 English troops confronting the Irish army will be freed up. Whether they cross the Irish Sea, launch an attack on Ireland, or move to the northern Scottish battlefield, they can greatly promote the development of the war. Neither Ireland nor Scotland can resist the attack of this increased army of more than 100,000 troops. Secondly, the reason why Ireland can get huge aid from France is that they are at war with England. Once they withdrew from Wales, Harrison found it hard to believe what the French would do about it. Perhaps the embarrassing and angry France will once again send a large army to invade the British Isles. Eliminate all forces here, whether they are British, American or Canadian.

"Don't think about it, Your Excellency. The US-Canada Expeditionary Force has already reached Dundalk, and it will be too late to hesitate." Jemasp said anxiously.

"By the way, didn't we ask for help from France? What was their response?" Harrison asked suddenly.

"Hmph! Those **** French asked us to gather our forces to resist the attack of the US-Canadian Expeditionary Force. They will take favorable measures to actively support us. However, it has been a few days, not to mention people, and they have not even seen any supplies. "Jemasp said angrily.

"How is our army's resistance work going?" Harrison asked.

"At present, our army has assembled 50,000 people stationed in Drogheda, but the enemy must also be planning a new major operation. As far as I personally think, it will be difficult for us to resist the enemy's attack. Once Drogheda is captured If the enemy occupies it, then Dublin will be directly exposed to the enemy." Gemasp said.

"Hey! It's not that I don't want to withdraw from Wales, but if we withdraw our troops suddenly, Scotland will no longer be able to withstand England's attack. At that time, we will fall into the siege of the American and Canadian expeditionary forces and the English again. And, Our actions will also violate the requirements of France, and France will definitely not help us at that time. At that time, our situation will be in danger." Harrison sighed. This may be the tragedy of being a small country. In the face of big countries, it is always very difficult for them, small countries without the power to protect themselves.

"Your Excellency, there is actually a sentence that I don't know if I should say it or not." Jemasp hesitated for a while, and finally said.

"Tell me, don't forget that we used to be good brothers who fought together," Harrison said.

"That's right. Judging from the current situation, in the confrontation with the United States and Canada, France is already at a disadvantage. Not only has it lost the entire American region, but its navy has also been wiped out, and now it has been beaten by others. doorstep. I think we don’t seem to need to maintain such a close relationship with France.” Gemasp said.

Harrison frowned after hearing what Gemasp said. He already understood what Gemasp meant, but he still had his concerns: "You are right, France is at a disadvantage now. However, France Once France recovers, do you think that newly developed countries such as the United States and Canada are France's opponents?"

"However, if we don't make wise choices now, we will be in danger." Jemasp said eagerly.

After being silent for a while, Harrison finally said: "Let's do this. Let Robert lead a part of the army back to Ireland for the time being. If we still can't resist the attack of the US-Canadian Expeditionary Force, then we can make another plan."

"Okay then." Jemasp nodded. He knew that this was Harrison's biggest concession.

Afterwards, the two immediately sent a secret message to Robert, asking him to lead 60,000 troops back to Ireland to resist the US-Canadian Expeditionary Force. After receiving the order, Robert did not dare to neglect, and led the troops back to the voyage that day. Considering that after he led the troops to leave, the strength of the Irish army in northern Wales would be greatly reduced. If the British army took the opportunity to attack, the Irish army might not be able to resist it. Therefore, Robert ordered that all the Irish army retreat to Anger Going to Elsie Island, relying on the strait, it is difficult for the English army to defeat the Irish army for a while.

The change of the Irish army immediately attracted the attention of England. They immediately sent troops to occupy northern Wales and confronted the Irish army across the sea. At the same time, 4 infantry divisions were immediately dispatched from Wales to the Scottish front to launch the final blow to Scotland.

The retreat of the Irish army allowed England to temporarily concentrate on dealing with Scotland, and the number of English troops assembled on the Scottish front reached 220,000. The Scottish army, which was hit hard, had only 150,000 people.

In this case, the Douglas family of the Scottish royal family decided to put all their eggs in one basket and gather all the troops of the whole country to fight to the death with the English army. But in order to keep the continuation of the family uninterrupted, they secretly sent the women and children of the family to France. Also transferred is the huge amount of wealth that the Douglas family has collected over the years for future use in rebuilding the Douglas family.

July 25, a day destined to go down in history. On this day, the two battles that will determine the fate of Britain unfold at the same time. The two battles were the Battle of Galashiels between England and Scotland and the Battle of Drogheda between the American and Canadian Expeditionary Forces and the Irish Army.

In the Battle of Galashiels, England and Scotland invested 220,000 and 150,000 troops respectively, and England had an absolute advantage in terms of strength. The battle lasted for three full days. Although the Scottish side gathered all the troops from all over the country and decided to fight to the death, the gap in strength between the two sides was difficult to make up. In the end, the English army defeated 50,000 Scottish troops in a decisive battle and broke through the Scottish army's defenses. For a time, the Scottish army's defense line collapsed across the board. The defeat was like a mountain, and even though the Douglas family adopted countless methods, they could not restore the decline of the battlefield. In the end, the English army won the Battle of Galashiels. In this battle, more than 40,000 Scottish troops were wiped out and more than 50,000 were captured. Only 50,000 people fled back to the capital, Edinburgh. England also lost more than 30,000 people in this battle. After accepting the battle, the English army attacked Edinburgh with 150,000 troops. Scotland and the entire Douglas family made their last stand in Edinburgh. The Battle of Edinburgh lasted for a full week. In the end, the Scottish army was completely lost, and the English army captured Edinburgh. After the capture of Edinburgh, the British commander allowed the soldiers to burn, kill and loot, causing the whole of Edinburgh to fall into a catastrophe. Those members of the Douglas family who did not flee to France or died in battle were all caught and hanged. The entire Douglas family, more than two hundred people, were all hanged in the port of Edinburgh. The fall of Edinburgh marked the demise of the Kingdom of Scotland established by the Douglas family~lightnovelpub.net~Although this new kingdom is still very, very young. After that, the English army continued to attack, and in less than a month, they regained control of the entire Scottish region.

In the Battle of Drogheda, 60,000 people and 110,000 people were invested between the American and Canadian Expeditionary Forces and Ireland respectively. Compared with the Battle of Galashiels that broke out at the same time, its scale was more than half smaller. But its significance is equally profound. Although the strength of the two sides was extremely different, the result was surprising. The American and Canadian expeditionary force defeated the Irish army with less, wiped out more than 30,000 Irish troops, and captured more than 50,000 people. Only 20,000 Irishmen fled back to Dublin. The U.S. and Canadian Expeditionary Forces suffered less than 20,000 casualties. After the battle, the Irish government realized the gap between the two sides. In order to reduce losses and survive, it took the initiative to find the US-Canadian Expeditionary Force and asked the two sides to cooperate. And this is exactly what the United States thinks of Canada. After secret talks, the two sides signed a series of secret agreements. In the end, the Irish government declared defeat and offered to rejoin Britain. Under the mediation of the United States and Canada, the English government had to accept this fact. Ireland became part of the United Kingdom again, but it was not controlled by the British government. Moreover, Ireland also retained 100,000 troops, and the United States and Canada sent 100,000 troops to station in Ireland, which made Britain have to give up the idea of ​​taking back Ireland by force. Even the Isle of Anglesey, which was occupied by the Irish army, could not be taken back.

In this case, all French forces were forced to withdraw from Britain, leaving only the Isle of Wight.
