Dominate South Asia

Chapter 776 Economic Sanctions

The Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier is located four hundred nautical miles east of Bay Island. This was carefully considered in advance. At this position, fighter jets taking off from the mainland are just outside the combat radius, and the carrier-based aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk is The plane can just pounce from here towards the Chinese fighter jets over Wanwan Island, and there will still be at least more than half an hour of staying time in the air for fighting.

However, due to being delayed for a whole day, when the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk arrived, Wanwan Island was unable to recover.

Faced with this situation, after the Kitty Hawk attack aircraft group had ejected and taken off, the White House sent an order to suspend the attack!

What's the use of fighting now? Unless the United States organizes another cross-sea landing and personally intervenes with armed force to take back Wanwan Island. At a time when the U.S. military is fully engaged in war with the Iranian government in the Middle East, the United States simply does not have such capabilities.

Winning two conventional wars at the same time depends on what kind of country it is fighting. After occupying the Wanwan Island, China will continue to increase its troops on the island and lay out a copper wall to prevent the United States from daring to land. There is no coming back!

The two sides are facing each other like this, separated by hundreds of nautical miles of ocean. As time goes by, the situation will become increasingly unfavorable to the United States, especially since China has renovated the airport on Bayan Island and can take off from Bayan Island. In the case of fighter planes, their combat radius will be further increased.

United States, White House.

In the past few days, the top think tanks in the United States have hardly rested. Even Bush Sr. has not slept for two days. When he heard that the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier formation was delayed, he issued an order, even if Sink that submarine, even if there is a war with China, we must quickly get rid of that submarine and move forward quickly!

result. The underwater confrontation still lasted four or five hours! In the past few hours, the Chinese Army's attack can simply be described as crazy.

Bush, with red eyes, heard that the president of Taiwan had fled on a special plane, preparing to go to Hawaii, and then transfer to the United States to apply for political asylum. The defense minister of Taiwan, who did not run away, represented the government of Taiwan. The surrender agreement was signed, which means that the war on Bayan Island is over!

"We still underestimated the determination of China's top leaders." Secretary of State Baker said: "Over the years, we never thought that China would make such a big determination to solve the Gulf issue by force. We also did not expect that the development of China's military strength has already So powerful. If we lose the Gulf, we will lose a wall that blocks China's access to the Indian Ocean. We are now focused on solving the Middle East issue and did not expect such a major change in East Asia."

"Baker, please stop talking about this. Now, what we need to discuss is what kind of remedial measures should be taken." Defense Secretary Cheney said: "If we want to retake the Gulf, we must mobilize at least two troops from Iran. As well as a large number of fighter planes and warships, this is very detrimental to the war we are conducting in Iran."

"Pa." Bush Sr. slapped his hand hard on the table. The solid wood table was abruptly slapped with a palm print, and Bush Sr.'s entire palm turned red. He threw the cigar into the trash can and said: "We must completely and comprehensively sanction China!"

The only thing the United States can take out is sanctions. After all, militarily, the most critical thing for the United States now is Iran! Until the Iran issue is resolved, the United States will simply not be able to free up its hands to resolve the Gulf issue.

"Contact the entire Western world. Implement thorough sanctions on China!" Bush Sr. said: "Add a high tariff of 2,000% to all goods exported from China to our Western world! What does China rely on to develop its economy? Isn't it their manufacturing industry? Isn't it the fact that the low-priced goods they sell have penetrated into our Western world? Our complete sanctions will definitely make China's economy decline and let China know that China's economy will lose its market. Devastated!"

After hearing Bush Sr.'s words, Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady was stunned. If this is really done, China's economy will be greatly affected, but the U.S. economy may also be affected by this.

Now, as the United States devotes all its national power to the military, the domestic economy of the United States has begun to become deformed. When terrorist attacks occur everywhere in the United States, the American people are united and sacrifice their own interests in order to defeat the evil regime. , these are no problem in a short period of time, but if time goes by, they will still have a great impact on the United States.

In fact, it is still because of the advocacy of the U.S. government that fighting Iran is not necessary now. The continued war has caused the U.S. economy to decline sharply. The prices of domestic light industrial products in the United States have more than doubled, and the domestic unemployment rate A huge increase. At the same time, the arms industry was operating at full capacity, making those arms giants a huge profit.

Bush could only solve military problems, but if the United States wanted to develop, the economy was the most important. At some point, Nicholas even felt that the United States was following the path of the Soviet Union, blindly developing military and ignoring people's livelihood.

The domestic light industry has completely stagnated. It is the high-quality and low-priced light industry products sold from Eastern countries and Pakistan that have kept prices in the United States from rising too much. If at this time, If the United States imposes high tariffs on China, the prices of daily necessities in the United States will also skyrocket!

Bush Sr. is going to make a mess by doing this. How will the next president solve it? Nicholas even worried that if the United States continues to prioritize war with a high national fiscal deficit, it will sooner or later fall from the altar.

At this time, the furious Bush Sr. obviously did not realize that imposing high tariffs on China is actually a lose-lose method. China needs the US consumer market, and the United States also needs China's cheap daily necessities. Both sides have their own needs. Although it is a trade deficit for the United States, the United States has an advantage, that is, the US dollar is the world currency. It can be said that the United States only needs to keep printing money.

Now, China's foreign exchange reserves have reached 2 trillion! And the current fiscal deficit of the United States has soared to 1.7 trillion US dollars. It can be said that China is actually paying for the United States' Iran war. Once high tariffs are imposed on China, the most terrible thing is that China will put their foreign exchange reserves into the international market and transfer them to other currencies, such as pounds, francs, etc., or even directly into gold. This will cause the US dollar to face a crisis and even fall from the position of world currency!

From the perspective of an economic expert, Bush Sr. is making a mistake by doing this! Nicholas swallowed his saliva and finally spoke: "Mr. President, imposing economic sanctions on China will seriously damage our economy and even cause our domestic economy to collapse and face a new round of economic crisis."

"Get the damn economy out! Now it's mainly military, and it's our American global strategy!" Bush Sr. roared at Nicholas: "The reason why we are strong in the United States is because we suppress our opponents in the world and let all NATO allies trust us, but now, we are facing a serious crisis. In the Middle East and East Asia, our situation is not good. We must solve the Iranian problem, and we must also make China bow its head!"

Bush Sr. doesn't care about the economy. In his eyes, it's all strategic issues! He is the helmsman of the United States.

"President, I ask to resign." Nicholas looked at the furious Bush and thought about the terrible future of the US economy. He finally made his own decision. Whoever wants to take care of this mess of the economy can do it. He will not do it anymore.

After saying that, Nicholas stood up and slammed the door and left.

Bush was stunned. As a core member of his think tank, Nicholas has always been very supportive of Bush, no matter what decision Bush made. What happened to him now?

Watching Nicholas leave, Bush picked up the cigar again: "Now, let's discuss the specific sanctions."

"Huaxia played really well, it can be compared with us." Mushaaf said in Islamabad.

"Yes, in order to regain Taiwan, China's preparations have not been one or two days. It has never stopped since the founding of the country. Now, it finally dares to give it a try." Muhammad also sighed. With the memory before the time travel, he naturally has a deeper understanding of China.

"For China, recovering Taiwan is not only politically, but also economically important." Muhammad continued, "Taiwan's electronic technology and high-tech are very advanced. After occupying Taiwan, China's electronic technology will leap to the world's advanced level."

One of the world's three largest motherboard chip manufacturers is VIA. This company's microelectronics design capabilities are quite outstanding. In the future, it can even develop CPUs. And companies such as TSMC are also well-known in the field of electronic technology.

Muhammad thought of Bai Xue again. She has returned to China. Maybe she has now stepped on Taiwan and become a senior official in charge of Taiwan's electronic technology?

"However, the Americans will never give up so easily." Old Arslan said, "The Americans are now stuck in the quagmire of the Iran war and cannot fully respond to China's military action. They will definitely impose economic sanctions."

Old Arslan has lived in the United States for several years and understands the thoughts of politicians there.

"I am also looking forward to the US economic sanctions." Muhammad said: "The US is now fighting Iran and has already made itself poor, with trillions of bad debts. If they sanction China again, they will also cause an economic crisis. If Bush Sr. is stupid enough, the US will become an economically second-rate country during his term!" (To be continued ~^~)
