Opening game, American Tycoon

Chapter 357 Britain, That's Friends of Nanhua
In the next few days, in the building of the British Foreign Office, the officials of the South American Office have been busy there. They rummaged through the file cabinets to find various materials. A detailed plan requires a lot of materials. Support, fortunately, they have prepared for this in the past.

But at that time, they planned to form the League of Hispanics in South America to fight against the Brazilian Empire.

Britain, the shit-stirring stick, has always been prepared for emergencies, and has always done work in advance to prepare for emergencies.

Soon, a readjusted plan was sent to the Foreign Minister's case. While waiting to be submitted to the Prime Minister for approval, people who had been busy for several days could finally take a break.

London in winter is foggy, facing the piercing north wind. After walking out of the foreign ministry building, James wrapped up the collar of his overcoat, took out his pocket watch and glanced at it naturally, and then took a leisurely look. He continued to walk forward, and when he met a patrolman along the way, the patrolman even nodded to the gentleman.

When returning the gift, James even had a strange thought in his mind-would the policeman be surprised if he knew that he was a spy?

As early as many years ago, the American company sent spies in London in the name of commercial investigations. The espionage industry is highly professional, and some spies need to lurk, infiltrate, and disguise for a long time.

In this era of backward information transmission, it is not difficult to impersonate a person, especially in a place like Britain. Every year, many British people go to the empire’s colonies, such as India and Southeast Asia, to contribute to the great cause of the empire. Few people died locally - from malaria, cholera, and various other tropical diseases.

Colonization has never been free. After military occupation, the maintenance of rule requires the dispatch of tens of thousands of administrative personnel. In this era where medical conditions are almost zero, a small disease can kill a person. Even the life of a family.

Since the 18th century, thousands or even tens of thousands of British people have been appointed by the company or the government to go to the colonies or to do business or serve as officials in British ports every year, and every year thousands of widows of administrative officials or businessmen bring them with them. The children returned to England, and there were many orphans among them.

And the price they paid for imperial colonization, it was the efforts of these people that enabled the British to live a life that everyone envied in this era-even poor working families in the UK can at least meet "" Every day there is meat, enough bread" happy days.

Correspondingly, London has not forgotten the price paid for the empire’s colonial career. Those orphans whose father died in the colony can always be taken care of in some ways, such as civil service examinations, etc. Receive a certain amount of care.

And James is such a "colonial orphan", but no one knows that his identity is fake.

According to the records, his father was a civil servant of the East India Company, and his parents died of malaria. He returned to England when he was 12 years old. In fact, the deity also died in India.

It was with this identity that James entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs two years ago on the recommendation of others.Although he is only an ordinary employee of the Foreign Office, he has access to a lot of confidential information-because there is not much secrecy at all in the confidentiality work of the London Foreign Office.

In the past few days, although James did not personally participate in the preparation of the "South American Defense Alliance", as a participant, he has mastered the entire content of this plan.

Now, all he needs is to send out this extremely important information.However, he did not have a meeting place, nor a secret contact point.

Because in the secret files of the investigation department, he is code-named "007" and is a "submarine", that is, the kind that has been lurking for a long time, waiting to be called.

Of course, they will also take the initiative to pass on information.For example, when the information obtained is very important.

After returning home, after saying hello to the landlord, Mrs. Snyder, and arriving at the room on the second floor, James took out the pocket typewriter from under the floor, and then got busy, and soon he re-recorded the plan with the help of memory. typed out.

In order to protect these "submarines", not only their typewriters are specially made, but even the envelopes they send letters are arranged in advance and have fixed addresses.

"Just a post office mailbox."

After taking out the envelope, James looked at the address on the envelope and said to himself.

"Hopefully they get the letter."

The reason why James thinks this way is because these letters were handed to him when he first started his mission.

Will they keep guarding that mailbox?
In the early morning of the next day, James walked to work after breakfast as usual. Under the cover of fog, he stuffed the letter into the mailbox.

The letter he sent that day was delivered to a letter box of a post office in London through the post office system, and then was picked up by the recipient. After several twists and turns, the letter was not sent to the London office of the American company until the next day place.

A few hours later, the newly released "South American Defense Alliance" plan was placed in front of Zhu Xianhai. Although the telegram fee alone cost several thousand taels, the actual value of this telegram is inestimable.

"It really is worthy of being a shit-stirring stick!"

While sighing, Zhu Xianhai looked at this plan and had to say that the British really had some talent in making plans.

From forming alliances to providing aid to instigating South China's internal rebellion, such a detailed plan makes one wonder if it was a plan formulated by an agency such as the CIA during the Cold War.

But who can imagine that this is the work of those senior civil servants of the British Foreign Office?
Perhaps this is the invisible strength of the old empire!

In addition to emotion, he asked again.

"Is that all there is to it?"

This plan can be used for reference.If Zhu Xianhai came into contact with this plan during the Civil War, he believed that he could at least extend the Civil War for another year.

It's a pity that he didn't have much experience in this area at that time.

"It's a draft plan, and more detailed content will be delivered by mail in half a month."

Qian Zizhuang replied.

"But apart from the details of the implementation of the plan, the basics are here."

"Leave this plan. We can use it as a reference. It may come in handy in the future. Many jobs are definitely more experienced than us British people. This is what we need to learn from."

"Yes, they do have a lot to learn from us."

Slightly nodding his head, Zhu Xianhai asked.

"Then what do you think?"

"My lord, on the surface, this plan seems to be huge, but in fact, even if they knead Peru, Uruguay, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela into one ball, what's the point? These countries are all economically backward , and even political turmoil, even the British themselves don't have much hope for them."

What are the prerequisites for a successful strategy?
It must be strength.

Perhaps the plan formulated by the British is very detailed, but the strength of these countries in South America does not allow it.What kind of countries are these countries?It is nothing more than an agricultural country controlled by soldiers and large estate owners and churches.

Even if such a country forms an alliance, it is an alliance with insufficient strength and each has its own plans. Such an alliance will not have any substantial impact on Nanhua at all.

Because in terms of strength, they are simply not enough!
Even if Nanhua didn't go to fight, they would all be thankful.Take the initiative to provoke Nanhua, do they have the ability?

"So we don't need to take this so-called alliance to heart at all, because they can't pose a real threat to us at all."

Hearing Qian Zizhuang's answer, Zhu Xianhai nodded and said.

"It is true. What is the real goal of the British in establishing this alliance? It is nothing more than to distract us and try to use a broad alliance to form a confrontational situation in South America. Once this confrontational situation is formed, it is bound to be against us. The sales of goods in China have had a certain impact, but, as we all know, this impact will not last long. Their purpose is to create a long-term confrontation, and then make the South American countries full of hostility towards us. This is their ultimate purpose-that is, Use this hostility to create division and confrontation between us and South America, and avoid a unified South America. Of course, for us, this is also an opportunity!"

After saying this halfway, Zhu Xianhai had a contemptuous smile on his face.

"For a long time, what has made us most vigilant is the attitude of the United Kingdom after we occupied Argentina. Whether they will directly go into battle with their shirts off. Now, this information has made me firm in my initial judgment. The United Kingdom will not, at least for the time being. The interests of the Americas went into battle in person, and they even planned to use our occupation of Argentina to instigate and plan the establishment of a broad opposition alliance in South America, which also means that we have won time. After all, it takes time for them to prepare for all this! "

time!

For Nan Hua, what is the most important thing now?
Of course it's time!

Nanhua not only needs time to develop itself, but also needs time to digest the fruits of the present victory.

Zhu Xianhai didn't even mention the role that the British assigned to Brazil. What has he learned in the past ten years?
It is nothing more than that ambition must match strength.Otherwise, isn't the current Argentina the best proof?
"So Brazil?"

"Brazil is not important at all. Whatever role the British assign to Brazil will not change our plans and will not affect us in any way."

Zhu Xianhai said these words almost in a dismissive tone.

"The British can add drama to Brazil, and they can also provide military aid to the Brazilians and arm Brazil. But, so what? Although Brazil has a large population, half of them are slaves. The only thing that makes people more afraid is that they China's vast territory has unlimited potential for development, but...is it possible for us to let them develop freely? Just like what the British said in this report...if a neighboring country has a strong military power, then it must be potential Threat. From this point of view, a conflict between us and the Brazilians is inevitable, with or without the territorial issue of Paraguay."

In many cases, there is always a certain inevitability between countries.On what plans the British have for South America.Zhu Xianhai already had his plan.In his plan, Brazil is an area that must be occupied.Not because Brazil is the only country in the South American continent that may pose a threat to South China.It's because Brazil has the iron ore that Nanhua needs.

What determined the strength of states in the 19th and 20th centuries?

It's steel!

This is an era when steel is both national strength.

Without enough iron ore, there is not enough steel, and without enough steel, the national strength is weak or even worthless.

It was also because of this that Zhu Xianhai had set his sights on Brazil as early as a few years ago, but at that time he was too far away to do anything.

But what's next?

Nanhua and Brazil will become neighbors!

What will Brazil need to do in the next few years?
It's just asking for luck!

Once the time is right, Nanhua will do it without waiting for Brazil to do it!

"Now it seems that the British can be said to be friends of South China..."

When he said this, Zhu Xianhai's tone was full of sarcasm.

"We have to thank the British guys a lot. To show our gratitude, let's take down Buenos Aires as soon as possible!"
