Can I make an asynchronous call from one web service to another web service deployed on different server?

The scenario is that an ASP.NET webforms page will call a web service in an async manner. This particular web service will then make another async call to a second web service deployed on different web server.

This this possible to achieve, and what additional steps or code would be necessary to make this happen?

A: 

It shouldn't be any more difficult than just calling the initial web service in the first place. Website A has a reference to WebService B and makes a call to that service (in response to some kind of action on Website A). WebService B has a reference to WebService C and makes a call to that service (in response to the action being invoked by Website A). Website A shouldn't know/care anything about WebService C, and vice/versa.

Or do A and C actually need to know about each other in your scenario? If so, that changes things.
