the world is at stake

"It's different. South America can't run away. North America and South America face the Pacific Ocean directly, but East Asia is protected by the first island chain. China only needs to deploy some patrol ships outside the island chain, and it can easily find people who cross the ocean. Assailant. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless the Chinese navy can be mobilized and intercepted halfway. But I can't think of any targets they must save in the Pacific Ocean. Or give them an irresistible bait."

Must-have target or irresistible bait?

Mar Keshi realized something, but when he was lost in thought, the secret service beside him sent a telegram.

"Your Excellency, there is an urgent telegram from Washington at the request of Secretary of State Melo."

The message is very long, but the content is very simple - China, Britain, Germany and France held the sixth meeting at the foreign ministerial level in Kuwait City in the Persian Gulf, and reached a framework agreement on petrocurrency.

"These damn villains, they are dividing the spoils!" Seeing the report, Marco Shi felt pain in his heart, "We firmly oppose any worldwide agreement that excludes the United States."

In addition to the oil currency, the four countries also reached two other important results in the talks - the drafting of the "Convention on the Peaceful Settlement of International Disputes" and the "United States Declaration."

According to the spirit of the "Convention" and the "Declaration", the four countries will establish an international arbitration court and a trans-international alliance between countries-this is an important institution to avoid irreconcilable conflicts between superpowers.

Isn't this the 'United Nations'?

Even the US is excluded.

Wait...not ruled out.

Demand the disbandment of Marco's military government, and decide whether to admit it after the United States restores democracy and freedom-good guy, it is clear that everyone has reached an agreement and is going to gang up on the United States together!

Charles I offered China an undeniable offer, and that was part of the offer.

According to the requirements of the "Convention", the four countries have stated that they will form a "peacekeeping force" to restore the normal political and social order of the United States as soon as possible, and let it return to the international family.

This fucking... is equivalent to a declaration of war.

Ma Keshi was furious when he saw it, and his anger soared to the sky!

The United States has always been the only one who maintains the peace of other countries. Today, it is its own turn to be "peacekeeping"—blatantly invaded under the banner of justice. Afterwards, it has to be written in the history books that "peace-loving China, Britain, Germany, and France saved the American people who were in dire straits." '.

Is this what people do?

The U.S. State Department, which is in charge of foreign affairs, has been trying to dismantle the de facto alliance between China and Britain, but now it seems that this work has failed miserably.Not only did China and Britain join forces, but Germany and France were also brought in.

So shameless and despicable!Any member of the 'Brotherhood' would be shaking with anger after reading this message.

The four countries not only want to form the 'United Nations', but also set aside an international condominium zone in the Middle East to accommodate refugees caused by wars and disasters all over the world.

Hahaha... That desert in the Middle East is used to house refugees?

What wicked, smoking guy came up with the brilliant idea?Wouldn't it be equivalent to going to a concentration camp if the refugees went there?Don't even think about developing, wait for death slowly.

Maybe it can become a supplier of cheap labor, and provide some modern slaves to the low-end industries of major countries-the slaves have to be grateful for the money.

In addition, once the Middle East is "internationally managed", there will be nothing for the Arab countries. The big dogs are currently in a tribal state and will be easily crushed to death.

As for the oil in the Persian Gulf, it is the common resource of the earth and the wealth belonging to all mankind. Naturally, it must be shared by all mankind, and it must not be handed over to big dogs.

The 'United Nations' is a political tool, and the four countries also intend to form the 'Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication' and the Bank for International Settlements.If all goes well, they will also establish a 'World Bank' to provide financial services to countries around the world.

This is another financial tool used to scoop up wealth in backward areas.

...After losing political rights, the United States will also lose financial rights-China, Britain, Germany and France just want it to die, and don't bring it to play with any good things.

As the real global hegemon at present, Great Britain has indeed placed a big bet in order to continue the national destiny, conceded huge benefits, tied China, Germany and France to its own chariot, and dealt with the United States together.

"The Brits are so nasty, they forced us to take the initiative to go to war, and put all the blame on the head of the United States. Afterwards, they have to play God to 'liberate' us. It's really the world's number one shit stick. "

Marco could see that Charles I had given full play to Great Britain's influence and set many traps - it was not safe for China and Britain to join forces, so he drew on Germany and France.

But Germany and France are crowded together. France, with a population of only 4000 million, looks at Germany, which is struggling to the east. It is impossible not to be afraid, and it is bound to hug the British thigh tightly.

Germany has swallowed a large amount of Russia's territory and population, and has reached the limit of expansion.Facing the 6000 million Russians in the occupied area is like facing a self-exploding bomb. Bazel I absolutely has no extra energy to challenge the British.

And Britain, France and Germany joined forces to win over and suppress China by virtue of their capital and technological advantages.The four countries are tied together and it is just right for the United States to seek the foundation of the empire for hundreds of years.

Ma Keshi shook the message and shouted angrily: "Look, look, the imperial powers have united. If we don't do anything, we will really perish!"

Chapter 78 Crazy

September 1919, 9, Western Australia, Perth.

The U.S. Navy's ocean-going reconnaissance ship 'Partridge', disguised as a fishing boat, slowly approached the most remote city in the world.

Perth was discovered by the Dutch at the end of the seventeenth century.But in the age of great voyages, it has been neglected because of the harsh environment.Until the beginning of the nineteenth century, the British always regarded this place as an overseas territory for exiled prisoners.

The "Partridge" docked at the pier, and the captain stood on the side of the ship and looked at the city.

To be precise, this place is nothing but a large desolate village, with wooden houses as far as the eye can see, and even a stone church with only two or three floors.

September is the early spring of the local area, and the daytime temperature is around [-] degrees.

The Australian native on the pier was vulgar and fierce, squinting like a cannibal, until he found that the 'Partridge' had guns and cannons, and he was sure that it was not a 'fat sheep' to be bullied.

In the cabin, Major General William Mitchell from the US Army Logistical Air Force was busy writing a report.The main reason is that Perth's infrastructure is too poor to provide the docking and replenishment of a large fleet.

Four fleet aircraft carriers headed by the 'Lexington', six battlecruisers and battleships headed by the 'New York', plus a formation of more than thirty destroyers and logistics ships have just received supplies in Hawaii.

Major General Mitchell's work will determine whether or not the task force sets off stealthily towards Australia.On the way the 'Partridge' came, the major general was very confident in his mission.But when he arrived in Perth...

"The port is too small and there are too few anchors. The locals are not very friendly and are very xenophobic. The important thing is that this place is very deserted and the level of development is extremely low. There is neither a repair shop nor an oil depot. It is not a good starting point for an attack."

With the dim light in the cabin, the major general wrote hundreds of words on the paper.But while he was writing, he suddenly thumped the table violently, stood up abruptly, pushed open the porthole, and looked at the dilapidated houses in the direction of the port.

"The world is too big, and the Pacific Ocean is too big. East Asia has a vast territory, rich resources, and a large population. It is the chosen place. But if the United States does not do something, this place will definitely be occupied by the Chinese."

"Not to mention Western Australia, Melbourne and Sydney in Eastern Australia will not be spared. New Zealand will also fall."

"Despicable Brits, why would they think of attacking the United States? They even brought together the most powerful countries in the world."

Perth has a Mediterranean climate with humid winters and hot summers.The sea breeze from the southwest was blowing from the porthole, which relieved the pressure of Major General Mitchell, who was suppressed in the cabin.

But just think about the worsening international situation, and every American will be worried.

The British gathered 150 million troops in Canada, and their soldiers pointed directly at the industrial core of the Great Lakes.In this regard, the officials and gentlemen of the Pentagon have trouble sleeping and eating, and they feel like sitting on pins and needles.

A hundred years later, the states of the Great Lakes will become the famous rust belt, but now it is the foundation of the United States.The British's shallow-water heavy gunship aimed its guns at this foundation, and it was able to plunge it into flames in half a day.

The British have a large number of decommissioned pre-dreadnought ships, and the heavy artillery left over from the dismantling of the ship happens to be used to build gunships.Now there are not only dozens of shallow water gunboats in the northern part of the five major lakes, but also hundreds of fortress guns have been built.

"The British guy understands it very well. If we are sure, we may attack in advance and go to Canada." The more you think about it, the major general, the more unhappy you become.

After more than half a year of military expansion and training, the strength of the U.S. military expanded like a balloon, and the regular army suddenly increased from less than 20 to 200 million.

With so many troops needing guns and cannons, even with the production capacity of the United States, they are in a hurry.Moreover, once a fight is started, the ammunition consumption is the most important, so the arsenal must not stop.

But the Great Lakes are arsenals. Once destroyed, the US military's guns will become fire sticks.But apart from the Great Lakes, there is really no industrial cluster of the same size in the United States.

The reason why the British did not do anything is that it is more difficult to support logistics overseas, and the second is that they need to establish a supply system in Canada.

The Pentagon has also thought about "defending the enemy outside the country" countless times, and went to Canada, but the army suddenly expanded, and there were not enough officers.

Many majors and colonels in the US military are rookies who have just graduated from the military academy for two years, and they don't even have the qualifications to be a captain.As for the generals, most of them are temporary military ranks, and they are managers drawn from various enterprises.

These people are good at production, but really bad at war.

In comparison, the British standing army was not large, but it was mobilized two years in advance.And the colonies all over the world have a large number of standing armed forces, and the problem of officers is easier to solve.

As for China, it has not stopped fighting in the past ten years. All officers have been eliminated by war, and those with poor ability have been eliminated long ago.Its army expanded from 150 million to 500 million, and the recall of retired officers solved many problems.

As for Germany and France, let alone, it is no exaggeration to say that its army is ready to fight.

How to balance the military supply logistics and organizational management, I don't know how many brain cells have been burned by the top military and political leaders of the United States.But a more astonishing news came out-China, Britain, Germany and France have joined forces.

China made representations to the US military government in early September, demanding that the US military withdraw from the Philippines, stop the cruel and inhumane colonial rule, and return freedom and democracy to the suffering Filipino people.

Not only the Philippines, but also Guam and Hawaii must accept the trusteeship of the international community.

In 1842, the United States also recognized Hawaii as an independent kingdom; but only three years later, the United States occupied 90.00% of Hawaii's land.By 1898, the United States tore off its face and listed Hawaii as its own territory.

When Major General Mitchell heard the news, his first reaction was ridiculous and absurd——China has been acting as a dumping market for the United States for the past ten years. When will it be qualified to point fingers at the United States?

After being ridiculous, the second reaction of the U.S. military and political circles was not anger, but great fear—the three countries of Britain, Germany and France expressed their support for China's proposal, and proposed to jointly eliminate global colonies and establish a 'community of shared future for mankind'.

It sounds like tigers, leopards, and wolves don't eat meat, but eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha instead.

In fact, the brutal armed colonists can only open some mines and engage in some low-end industries such as planting. In the industrial age, they can't make much money at all, and the investment costs are horribly high.

Armed colonization is not good, economic colonization is more convenient and efficient.

This is similar to the logic of the American Civil War. The 'Northern Industrial Owners' could not understand the 'Southern Slave Owners', not because of their innocence and kindness, but because of their interests.

China did not engage in colonization.It also went under the banner of "liberation" in Southeast Asia, eradicating the original big landlords and the decadent ruling class, breaking the old production relations, and seeking benefits for the lower class.

This makes it naturally righteous.

China dares to jump out and accuse the United States of being brutal, barbaric and inhumane. This shows that China, Britain, Germany and France have completed internal communication and mutual trust, and they are all targeting the United States.

All the industrial equipment and financial and material resources China needs can be obtained from Britain, Germany and France, and the United States is not afraid of getting stuck.Instead, the United States has lost crucial overseas markets.

This is a devastating disaster.

Wall Street is extremely sensitive to this. Less than an hour after the news came out, the stock market, which was barely stabilized by the military government, once again plummeted like a bloodbath.Huge amounts of money fled from the stock market, forcing the New York Stock Exchange to suspend trading indefinitely.

The military government of Marco Shi spared no effort to stabilize the country's political situation and restore economic order, but now everything is in chaos again.It is conceivable that another group of people are about to jump off the skyscrapers in Manhattan.

The United States is a federal republic, with dozens of states working together to live together.The states were already full of resentment towards Marco's military government, and now they are being beaten violently by the big powers, which is even more alienated.

Several states in the west have already reported that they want to break up and go alone, and they are unwilling to bear the disaster of war with Washington's solitary husband-for example, Texas, which has oil, wants to restore the Lone Star Republic.

What Marcos can do is to forcefully suppress it, and must not make civil war worse before the foreign war begins.If this is the case, the legitimacy of the military government will be completely lost.

At the same time, when countless bankrupt Americans faced the depressed economy and wanted to vent their anger on the Chinese in the United States, they found that most of the Chinese groups that they used to see in the past disappeared.

This group of nearly 500 million sold off their assets a few months ago and left the United States in an organized manner.A small part of them returned to China, and most of them went to Latin America or South America.

There is no other way, the U.S. military and political circles have to reach a consensus, prepare for war with all their strength, and even take the initiative to attack-at a time of desperation, the White House and the Pentagon hope to solve China first.

When diplomatic efforts fail, military action is the only solution.

The "Partridge" circled most of the world and came to Perth, Australia, with the goal of Singapore in the north-the Sino-Japanese joint fleet has two important military ports.One is Yokosuka, Japan, and the other is Singapore.

At present, the Chinese National Defense Forces are attacking cities and territories in Southeast Asia, suppressing bandits while rebuilding the local regime.The Indochina Peninsula is already completely under control, but Indonesia, which has many islands, needs the vigorous intervention of the navy.

When the British occupied Singapore, they built many military facilities, including barracks, ports, shipyards and large oil depots.It is natural for the United Fleet to use this place as its home port.

The 'Partridge' will then set off from Perth, pass through Christmas Island, pass through the Sunda Strait, pass Jakarta, and approach Singapore to determine the situation of the main force of the combined fleet in the port.

According to the wishful plan of the U.S. Navy, the main force of the Pacific Fleet will depart from Hawaii, bypass Australia, stop in Perth for a short rest, sail [-] kilometers, and appear west of Sumatra Island.

The new type of carrier-based aircraft equipped by the U.S. military is powerful. It will fly more than 500 kilometers across the huge island to carry out air strikes on Singapore and destroy the main force of the joint fleet docked at the port.

Of course, this is the ideal state.

The specific combat plan requires intelligence personnel placed in various parts of Southeast Asia, including the Singapore port area, and reconnaissance ships such as the 'Partridge' to do more work.

"But we are running out of time." Major General Mitchell only felt that there were many difficulties.

The current U.S. military has never experienced large-scale modern warfare. The previous war was the "Civil War" half a century ago.All of its officers were inexperienced, both in staff planning and in front-line command.

Really fight, God knows what will happen?

"We seem to be dying." Major General Mitchell returned to the table, feeling that the report made up of hundreds of words was completely nonsense. "An ocean battle spanning [-] kilometers is simply crazy!"

Chapter 79

Hawaii, Oahu, Pearl Harbor.

U.S. Chief of Naval Operations Thomas Hart visited Pacific Fleet Command in person and received a telegram from Perth, Australia.

After reading the message written by Major General Mitchell, the Lieutenant General sighed: "It is too difficult to attack Singapore from Hawaii."

Has there ever been a fleet expedition spanning tens of thousands of kilometers in history?have!

Tsarist Russia conducted an expedition of [-] kilometers back then, and the result was that its Second Pacific Fleet set out from Europe, bypassed Africa, passed through the Indian Ocean, and entered the Tsushima Strait in East Asia to give away the heads of little Japan.

The entire fleet was wiped out and became the laughing stock of the world.

just now……

The "Partridge" reconnaissance ship was very laborious just to send a telegram from Perth to Hawaii. It had to send people back to Melbourne by boat, and then send it to Guam through a submarine cable, and then forwarded it from Guam to Hawaii.

Standing in the office on the roof of the Fleet Command, Lieutenant General Hart looked down at the several US battleships docked in the port, trying to find another attack route in a depressed mood.

Instead of attacking Singapore, would it be okay to attack Yokosuka?

Relying on the support of Britain and the United States in the past ten years, Japan's shipbuilding industry can be regarded as world-class.After the integration of China and Japan, the logistical support of its joint fleet is basically in Japan, especially Yokosuka.

At present, China and the United States have not completely severed diplomatic relations.

U.S. intelligence personnel were active in Tokyo, and they were able to confirm that there was another aircraft carrier 'East Ying' in the Yokosuka Naval Shipyard that had just completed outfitting and was undergoing sea trials.
