Chapter 854: Island Chain Beauty (Part 2)

Wang Guorui knows that for the United States, he really has to admit that he has no good way. He knows that it is impossible to completely destroy the United States, because if he wants to destroy the United States, although the American army is vulnerable, he wants to destroy the United States. It would be impossible without hundreds of thousands of troops! Although Wang Guorui could dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops, the biggest difficulty was the logistical supplies. The logistical supply route across the Pacific Ocean is enough to drive people crazy. Not to mention the present, even the United States of later generations would not dare to play this kind of expedition with hundreds of thousands of troops easily. Wang Guorui couldn't provide supplies for hundreds of thousands of troops across the Pacific Ocean. Such a long-distance loss may be greater than the normal supply of a million-strong army.

Even once it lands on the west coast of the United States, it will not be able to obtain enough resources along the way to fight eastward. You must know that the western United States has always been desolate, even in the 21st century, the western United States is mostly desolate, and there is not much oil and water to be fished. Although Alaska has many resources, the development of resources in Alaska currently does not have the corresponding conditions. The benefits of Alaska's resources cannot be seen in the short term, but more importantly, in the future, the strategic significance of the future is relatively large. So there is no need to think about developing resources, let alone as a material supply.

So it is a very stupid way to send a large army to find bad luck for the United States. Such a long supply line, if the purpose of the attack is to occupy the territory, it is not worth the loss. But the geographical environment of the Americans is too good. Like China's environment in East Asia, it is rich in resources and has no competitors. It looks like a boss. With the appearance of such a boss, he can completely lead a party and become a powerful country. Wait for Europe to kill there. And the Americans can sit firmly on the development of Diaoyutai here. In the end, it can develop and become the overlord step by step. However, European countries will fight back and forth there, which will inevitably consume their strength in the end, and at worst will slow down the speed of development.

Americans probably have established their industrial strength in this way, and they have been established with almost no damage from war. So of course Wang Guorui couldn't let them live too comfortably. He hoped to find the Americans bad luck on purpose. Secure your position.

"Look, among the three island chains, the first island chain is mainly in Hawaii in the United States. At that time, we will help the Kingdom of Hawaii to restore the country on the grounds of supporting the Kingdom of Hawaii, and then become the core of the first island chain. The first island The chain will be our first strategic line of defense to contain the United States from developing towards their west, that is, towards the Pacific. The current plan of the Americans is to develop westward, that is, towards the Pacific, so that they have always been We are eyeing the Nanyang region. If we hadn’t started a war with the Spaniards a few years ago, they would have found opportunities to find an excuse to start a war with Spain. Then they would seize the Philippines. It’s a pity that they were cut off by us, so they hated us so much, naturally That’s what happened last time when an army of hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops attacked together with coalition forces from other countries.”

"And if we set up a certain naval force on the first island chain and firmly control those islands, we can effectively become an important means of curbing the development of the United States in the Pacific region. As long as we contain them, they will be It will definitely be blocked in America, and it will not be able to develop effectively!"

Wang Guorui's plan for the three island chains is actually similar to the US plan to contain China. It's just that the order of the island chain is just the opposite. Hawaii is the core of China's first island chain, which can effectively contain the United States. But before Wang Guorui crossed over. China has not been able to break out of the first island chain! The second island chain is to prevent the Americans from rushing out of the first island chain, and then defend on the second island chain to ensure the safety of China's territory and various resources in the Nanyang region. Both the Philippines and Indonesia are under the second island chain, so the second island chain is very important.

As for the third island chain, it is to ensure the safety of China's mainland. Although Wang Guorui believes that it will be difficult for the Americans to break out of the first island chain, Wang Guorui does not mind making more strategic plans. Those who do not plan for the future are not enough for a time. Anything can happen. Maybe the situation will not change in the next few decades, but what about another hundred years, two hundred years? No one can guarantee what will happen two hundred years from now, not even Wang Guorui can guarantee how far technology will develop in the next two hundred years. Maybe. By that time, mankind has collectively begun to develop into outer space. Once spaceflight capabilities become popular, this so-called island chain will be ridiculous. The distance of space is actually relative. The era of backward transportation is naturally "far". Once the transportation is advanced, it may be "near".

Therefore, it is impossible for Wang Guorui to predict the development of the world situation in the next 100 or 200 years. What he can do is to prepare as much as possible to avoid more accidents. So even if the first island chain is established, the second island chain and the third island chain must be arranged. If you don't leave any behind, you are looking for death. Any plan is left behind, even if the United States has become the hegemon of the world after World War II, isn't it also the plan to leave three island chains behind? That's because Americans are also very clear that they must stay behind just in case. The United States can be strong forever as a country, even Wang Guorui does not believe that China can be strong forever.

What Wang Guorui pursues is not that China will be strong forever, but that it will never be "destroyed". The old ancestors said it well, born in sorrow and died in peace, if a person, a country and a civilization have no enemies at all, they will just decay by themselves in the end. Wang Guorui has never thought of completely unifying the earth. If Wang Guorui completely unifies the earth, China and even the entire human race will eventually decay, which is not conducive to human progress. Only competition can keep a country, a nation, and a civilization alive for a long time. Competition and even war may destroy civilization, but from a certain point of view it is also promoting the progress of civilization, especially in terms of technology. If there is no atomic bomb, will there be atomic energy later? If there is no atomic energy, will there be more clean energy in the future? So everything is divided into two, and it cannot be absolutely good or absolutely bad. Because of China's geography, there are no powerful countries nearby. This has a strong side, but also a negative side.

Hundreds of years ago, the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell. Although Wang Guorui believed that there was a reason for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in fact, this cause and effect had already been planted to a certain extent in the past. The Manchu Qing Dynasty only greatly aggravated the consequences. There are no powerful countries around, and China's biggest enemy is itself. Every time is a power competition within oneself, and the last reincarnation one by one. Without a strong foreign enemy, he will inevitably decay in the end. ,

Wang Guorui left enough "enemies", even if there were no enemies, he still had to find a way to create an enemy. Only with enough "external pressure" can internal contradictions be suppressed by external pressure. If there is no external pressure, then the internal people will start to think about seizing power, and then make a revolution. Once there is no pressure from external enemies, the power struggle within China will reach its peak. The reason why the country is harmonious now is that apart from Wang Guorui's military power, it is also because the international environment is not optimistic, so as long as they are smart people, they will not mess with their brains at this time.

But once there are no enemies, China will suffer in the end, and internal fighting will be enough to ruin China. In the process of internal fighting, Wang Guorui, the royal family, suffered the most. Once the internal power struggle is too serious, the first ones to be kicked out by their courtiers are the royal family. So once there are no external enemies, it will not benefit the nation ~www.readwn.com~ It will not benefit Wang Guorui's royal family too much. Because the internal power struggle can easily affect the royal family, the royal family may be the first to be kicked out by everyone at that time.

"So I can only restrict the United States, but I can't completely destroy the United States. Once the United States is completely destroyed, it will also be the beginning of our gradual decay. All I can do is try to ensure that China will not perish. It depends on the ability of future generations. That's all I can do for future generations. If they don't live up to it in the future, then I have nothing to do. The three island chains will contain the United States, so that the United States will not be able to develop to the west. They can only Developing towards Europe will definitely get involved in European battles in the end. At that time, it is impossible for them to stay out of the matter. And what I can do is to let the wind and waves rise, and then follow the methods of the British and Americans back then, Just maintain balance." Wang Guorui thought.

"Next, you are ready to make a plan according to this plan! The geographical situation of the Americans is similar to ours, so we can't let them be too comfortable. We have to find a way to contain them, and then force them to move towards the European powers. To compete for melee. In Asia, our three island chains have included all Southeast Asia. In this way, within these three island chains, we must be the only powerful country in China. Other countries are for The countries we provide resources to are all countries we control economically and militarily, and are our vassals," Wang Guorui said.

Qiu Baoren followed Wang Guorui's plan, and then returned to the General Staff to formulate a combat plan, and then formulate the entire strategic island chain plan and future supporting plans. To be continued.
