Expedition to Europe
Chapter 1079 We love peace——
Lion City and Jakarta have now turned into a sea of fire.
The Lan Fang Air Force carried out indiscriminate bombing of Lion City and Jakarta. No matter where the British built their military camps, even in residential areas, the Lan Fang Air Force would bomb them without hesitation, without restraining themselves because of the possibility of accidentally injuring citizens.
Before the bombing, the Lan Fang government had already issued a warning to the Chinese in British Malaya. The smart ones had already moved out of Lion City and Jakarta. Those who insisted on following the British, let them die in the sea of fire with the British.
The British deployed air forces in British Malaya, but these air forces did not play a big role.
The Second and Fifth Wings of the Lan Fang Air Force were air force wings established with the First Wing as the backbone. These were two air force wings stationed in Lan Fang. Their combat effectiveness was not comparable to that of the British Malaya Air Force.
If the Second and Fifth Wings wanted to find an opponent in the world, perhaps only the First Wing of the Lan Fang Air Force stationed in Surabaya could do so.
The First Wing is the ace unit of the Lan Fang Air Force. It is responsible for defending the capital Coconut City and Penglai Island where the royal palace is located. It is also the last trump card of the Lan Fang. The First Wing will not be put into battle until the critical moment.
The attack on Lion City and Jakarta was commanded by Bao Deshui himself. In fact, the tactics are very simple. The fighters first fight for air supremacy, and then the bombers come out to carpet bomb valuable targets. Generally, one or two times will do the job.
Compared with the British Malayan Air Force, the balloons deployed by the British over Lion City and Jakarta have caused greater trouble for the Lan Fang Air Force.
These balloons are huge hydrogen balloons used to block the sight of the Lan Fang bombers.
The Lan Fang Air Force is also prepared for this. There are machine gun shooters on the bombers. After a string of bullets, the huge balloons will immediately turn into fireballs.
The British were quite insidious. They deployed anti-aircraft positions under the fireball. The bombers would definitely drop in altitude to break the balloon, and the ground anti-aircraft firepower could play the greatest role at this time. Therefore, in the first day of bombing, the Lan Fang Air Force lost a lot of bombers, with a total of eleven bombers shot down.
When the Lan Fang Air Force began to bomb Singapore and Jakarta, Qin Zhiyuan met with Dylan Connor, the US ambassador to Lan Fang.
Dylan Connor asked to see Qin Zhiyuan for peace.
"It is not up to me to decide whether to cease fire or not. Lanfang is a peace-loving country. It was Italy that first declared war on us, and we were forced to fight back. As for the Russians, they have invaded our territory for 150 kilometers, and our troops in the northern region are still restrained. This is the best proof that we are peace-loving in Lanfang. As for the British, to be honest, Dylan, don't you think the British have too many colonies? I just talked to Joe on the phone, and we agreed that all trade barriers should be eliminated to get the world back on the right track of free trade. In this regard, we have broad common interests-" Qin Zhiyuan sang a high-sounding tune, and then finally got back to the point.
The Russians' attack on the northern region of Lanfang has become a joke. Lanfang has almost no ground forces, and only a small-scale ground force has limited harassment of the Russian army. Coupled with the bombing of the air force, the Russians have already made it difficult to move forward.
After Germany and Poland declared war on Russia, Germany expanded its army to 1.5 million in a short period of time, most of whom were veterans of the last World War. William III had already sent a 300,000-man army to attack Belarus, which had already formed a great constraint on the Russians. Stalin had to withdraw part of the troops attacking the northern region of Lanfang to Belarus to defend against the Germans, which made the Bolshevik army even more demoralized. Perhaps it would not be long before those troops that advanced less than ten kilometers a day would collapse on the spot.
"Joe" is the new President of the United States, John Calvin Coolidge, a US President known for his classical liberal conservatism. He advocated small government in politics and free trade in economics. He was the last US President who did not try to intervene in the free market, letting the economic cycle run its course.
During his tenure, John Calvin Coolidge made some rectifications to the government, removing some corrupt officials who aroused public anger, while cutting income tax rates and encouraging investment. John Calvin Coolidge believed in the political philosophy of "ruling by doing nothing" and believed that "a government that does not interfere is the best government."
It's incredible that he is actually a descendant of Zhuangzi.
Britain certainly hopes that the United States will join the war. As far as Qin Zhiyuan knows, the British government currently has a delegation lobbying the US government to join the war in the United States, hoping that the US government will act as the savior of Europe like in the last world war.
Lan Fang is not without influence in the United States at present. While the British are lobbying the US government, Lan Fang is also taking action. As Qin Zhiyuan's personal representative, Old Renault went to the United States a month ago to find allies with enough weight in the United States. A group of people headed by Simon Allen of the Federal Group, Andrew Raymond of the Mellon family and Old John of the Rockefeller family are also taking frequent actions. These economic giants have a common demand, that is, to promote free trade on a global scale, eliminate trade barriers, and cancel trade checkpoints.
And the demands of these American economic giants are exactly what the British are willing to defend at all costs. You must know that Britain has the largest colonies in the world. In British colonies, British goods are of course unimpeded, while Lanfang goods and American goods have to pay huge tariffs if they want to enter British colonies for sale, which will definitely affect the competitiveness of Lanfang goods and American goods.
This "tariff" is the lifeblood of the British. The British will definitely not give up, otherwise there will be no last world war.
Also in the last world war, the Americans made all the money from Europe by playing both sides, and then personally sent troops to divide the last piece of the pie, but because the US Congress did not approve it, the United States did not sign the Paris Peace Agreement and did not join the League of Nations. It is equivalent to this last piece of pie. The Americans only got some leftovers, which made the Americans very unhappy.
The money Europe owed to the United States in the last world war has not been paid off yet.
"I don't know what agreement you have with Mr. President, but as part of the civilized world, we don't want to see too many humanitarian crises. You know, the attack power of the Lan Fang army is too destructive. If your Majesty does not restrain it, it will be a disaster that affects all mankind. I think the theme between us should not be war, but other better things, such as fragrant and delicious wine." Dylan Connor said, and raised the wine glass in his hand to Qin Zhiyuan.
Uh - the American "Prohibition" is still in effect, but it is obvious that not many people take it seriously.
Dylan Connor's meaning is very clear. Americans also need to get a larger market for American products, but it cannot be a market that is beaten. If it is too severe, all the jars and cans in the house will be beaten, and all the wealth will evaporate in the war. Then those markets will be useless.
It is a good thing to have products, but people in the market must be able to afford them, otherwise those capitalists would rather pour milk into the river than give it to those in need.
The original text is in Liu # 9 @Book/Bar!
Dylan Connor knows the relationship between those big American companies and Lan Fang. To a certain extent, it can be said that the Mellon family and the Rockefeller family are allies with Qin Zhiyuan's Lan Fang Royal Group. They have full cooperation on many levels. As for the United States Federal Group, although Qin Zhiyuan is now nominally no longer related to the United States Federal Group, everyone knows that the Federal Group was founded by Qin Zhiyuan. Otherwise, how can Simon Allen, a professional manager, hold more than half of the shares of the Federal Group?
Since Lan Fang declared war on Italy, Simon Allen has clearly stood on the side of Lan Fang and demanded that the US government implement a full-scale blockade of Italy in the economic field. In order to promote this resolution, just a week ago, Simon Allen fought with Italian-American Congressman Alessandro during a meeting of the US Congress. Simon Allen punched Alessandro twice and beat Alessandro into the hospital. This incident also made the front page of the New York Times and became the most explosive news in the United States this year, even surpassing the ongoing world war.
Well, after the experience of the last world war, Americans really don't have much interest in world wars. Many Americans can't find a reason to pick up a gun to defend a group of strangers, not to mention that it was a war against Lan Fang. Just the name has frightened many Americans who had military experience in the last world war, not just ordinary people, but many American generals as well. Even the retired former commander of the American Expeditionary Force, John Joseph Pershing, publicly published similar fear-of-war remarks in the newspaper: "If we want to defeat Lan Fang, we have to prepare twice as many soldiers, three times more warships, and twenty times more fighters than in the last world war. That doesn't necessarily mean we can achieve our goals. We can only say that we have the strength to fight against Lan Fang."
Tsk tsk, Pershing is the first person in the US Army, the only special general in the US Army at present, and even the founding president of the United States has no special honor. Even Pershing said so, you can imagine the importance the US military attaches to Lan Fang.
"Of course I am also happy to see peace--" Qin Zhiyuan just opened his mouth and was interrupted by Heyman who walked in hurriedly.
Heyman's expression was solemn and his face was slightly red, as if he was trying hard to suppress the anger that was about to burst out, so that his voice was a little trembling: "The rescue team is back, they only brought back the pilot's body. Our pilot was tortured to death!"
Torture!
It's really horrifying. Where is the "Jebevo Convention"?
