"Guy, when will you go back to Hong Kong, if you don't come back, that baby girl at home will turn the sky upside down!" Li Xuan's eldest brother Li Ke said with a smile on the phone.

"Dad, uncle, he's a big villain, he always loves to talk nonsense! You're good at home, remember to buy me a lot of dolls when you come back, and the liar is a puppy!"

Li Xuan's baby daughter obviously didn't want to be slandered by the uncle, and wanted to grab the phone, but it seemed that she didn't succeed, so she could only tell her father aggrieved loudly.

After Li Ke played with his niece for a while, he finally gave her the phone. So Li Xuan had no choice but to promise his daughter on the other end of the phone again that he had fulfilled his promise before leaving Hong Kong and would buy her a lot of beautiful dolls to take home.

Knowing that when he hung up the phone, Li Xuan's mouth still had a pampering smile on the corner. But soon, that smile was replaced by seriousness. He sat on the couch for a long time, as if he was thinking about some plan!

Li Xuan's phone call with his eldest brother just now seemed to be a warm fight as a family, but it was actually a code word that the two agreed on before leaving Hong Kong!

When he left Hong Kong, he lit a fire and wanted to force the British authorities in Hong Kong to adjust the current land finance policy through the tide of popular opinion. By increasing the supply of land, we can curb the rapid rise of housing prices in Hong Kong, so as to control the inflation rate in Hong Kong.

However, Hong Kong is now in a special period, and even if the British authorities in Hong Kong make concessions according to Li Xuan's plan, they still need the consent of the central government in the north. And it may even be more difficult to gain the support of the latter.

Because this issue is not just a matter of Hong Kong, but may directly involve the overall diplomatic trend of China and the United Kingdom!

Because of the rampant trend of freedom brought about by the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, last year was the most turbulent year since the reform and opening up in China. And from last year to now, the diplomacy of the republic has been isolated by the collective West!

In order to break this isolation, the domestic side is likely to transfer Li Xuan's spearhead to the British government, which was originally aimed at the Hong Kong Governor's Office, and make a breakthrough from Downing Street, so as to break the cage of diplomatic isolation in the West.

In fact, in another time and space, the domestic side made a big deal by opposing the current governor's new airport plan, and finally succeeded in forcing the British government in a dilemma to bow its head.

The British Prime Minister went to Beijing to sign a memorandum on the cross-97 issue of Hong Kong's new airport, becoming the first Western head of state to visit China after the turmoil of 8-9 years. In this way, China has succeeded in opening up a diplomatic situation and has begun to resume normal exchanges with Western countries.

Since the people's will in Hong Kong and Kowloon is boiling at present, the pressure on the British authorities in Hong Kong is certainly greater than in another time and space. This is undoubtedly a great benefit for the domestic side, and it must also strengthen the idea of opening a breakthrough from the British.

And the British side naturally cannot bow down and admit defeat as soon as it comes up. Once the two sides start wrestling, there will definitely be no results in every year and a half. This is completely contrary to Li Xuan's idea, because after a year and a half, the people's anger that he has quietly stirred up must have cooled down long ago.

In case China and Britain use the issue of land supply quota as a bargaining chip that can be used for compromise or sacrifice, Li Xuan is likely to be empty!

It is important to know that in the face of the overall interests of the country, some parts can be sacrificed. This kind of strong national will cannot be changed by Li Xuan no matter how much money he has!

So in order to avoid this situation, the best choice for Li Xuan is to take the initiative to help the domestic side open up the diplomatic dilemma!

In this way, the central government owes the "God of Wealth Li" a great favor, and when the time comes, he will take advantage of the situation to make some small requests, can the domestic side refuse?

However, the diplomatic isolation of China by the Western countries in unison this time is obviously a tacit collective action! Whoever breaks this tacit understanding will be held responsible!

However, there is one country that can make an exception, and that is the initiator of this small move -- the United States! There is a saying in China that the bell must be tied to the bell! The United States is the leader and rule-maker of the Western world, and others need to bear its anger for breaking its rules. But if it destroys itself, then no one will talk much!

And how easy is it to find a breakthrough from the United States? No matter how close Li Xuan is with Bush Sr., it is impossible for him to really command the US president!

However, Li Xuan, as the protagonist with the reborn golden finger, the author will always help him figure out a way...... Uh, what nonsense are you talking about...... It should be that Li Xuan can always rely on the advantages of rebirth to find a solution to the problem!

The most memorable event during Bush Sr.'s tenure was undoubtedly his launching of the Gulf War! That's right, according to the original historical trajectory, Iraq's annexation of neighboring Kuwait was imminent!

And for the sake of upholding world justice, love, and peace, the United States of America will come out to uphold justice! With the Security Council's authorization resolution and the support of most countries in the world, Bush Sr. delivered a thunderous blow to Saddam, a disobedient monkey, after more than four months of meticulous preparations!

But in fact, before the war began, in the face of Iraq, which claims to be the third military power in the world, how empty was the US government?

Later generations of media revealed such a small detail, the US military is not sure how many casualties it will cause in the operation against Iraq. So before the Gulf War officially broke out, they shipped 10,000 body bags to the Middle East in one go!

As a person who has come over, Li Xuan knows very well that this is a war with extremely asymmetrical technology and strength. The US military's textbook-like three-in-one strike on the sea, land, and air has made the whole world understand what modern high-tech warfare is!

But the Americans themselves don't know that it can win so easily, which gives Li Xuan room to operate!

The Gulf War was the third large-scale war experienced by the United States after World War II. In the Korean War and the Vietnam War before, the U.S. military lost!

Whether it is North Korea or Vietnam, the gap between their military strength and the US military is not much larger than that of Iraq today! However, they have succeeded in driving out the Americans, and the real reason behind this is that there are two giants standing behind them -- China and the Soviet Union.

To say that Iraq has long been one of the important allies of the Soviet-US alliance in the Middle East, it is a pity that Saddam Hussein was unlucky. The Soviet Union in 1990 was on the verge of collapse and could not afford to support its allies.

If time could be pushed forward by 20 years, it would not be certain that the United States would dare to launch the Gulf War! Now that even the backers behind it are shaky, and it is naturally impossible for the United States to back down in the face of Iraq, a pawn of the horse!

As a dictator who has been able to rule Iraq for so many years, Saddam Hussein naturally cannot be a fool! Although Iraq boasts of being the third military power in the world, it is impossible for Saddam Hussein himself to be unaware of the gap in military strength between Iraq and the United States!

The reason why he still has to brave the world's condemnation and brazenly annex Kuwait is also because he has no way out. The decade-long Iran-Iraq war has almost completely destroyed Iraq's economy.

And with the end of the war, many problems that were suppressed during the war have also erupted in a concentrated manner! For example, a large number of military personnel have been discharged, which has made Iraq's already high unemployment rate even worse!

If Saddam Hussein fails to effectively solve this problem, he is very likely to be ousted by his subordinates in a military coup d'état in the future!

And if you want to develop the economy and increase employment, you need money, but it is a pity that the current Iraqi treasury is empty and can run mice. Not only did Curry not have a single surplus, but he also owed huge foreign debts to other neighboring countries.

During the war, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and other countries, fearing the threat of further expansion of Iran, not only did not urge old debts, but were also willing to lend large amounts of loans to Iraq. But now that the war is over, I-Lang has also retracted and licked his wounds.

Now that the threats faced by Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and other countries have disappeared, it is natural that Iraq will begin to urge Iraq to repay its debts!

It was precisely in the midst of such internal and external troubles that Saddam Hussein finally chose to take a reckless approach! As long as Kuwait can be annexed, the tens of billions of dollars owed to the other side can be written off in one go, and Iraq will be able to quickly transfuse the entire country by seizing Kuwait's oil fields.

As for the US intervention by force, Saddam's idea was simple. He doesn't even need to defeat the other side, he just needs to drag it out for a long time, and the surging anti-war wave in the United States will eventually become Iraq's best ally, just like Vietnam did more than a decade ago!

But Saddam Hussein clearly missed the point. The reason why Vietnam has been able to drag on for so long is because the Soviet Union and China have taken turns to give it blood transfusions, otherwise it would have been consumed by the United States long ago!

And now the Soviet Union, after passing through the leadership of the good friend of the American people, *****, has become a big fat pig for the New Year, and it will be slaughtered on the board!

But China can take this opportunity to fish in troubled waters and plan some benefits for itself!

Don't look at the fact that China's economic development level is far inferior to that of Hong Kong and Taiwan, but what is a world power? You must at least have some killer features that make the world afraid! For example, nuclear weapons and intercontinental missiles!

Just a few years ago, Saudi Arabia was forced by the grim security situation around it to show for the first time the good things it bought from China - Dongfeng-3 ballistic missiles!

This Dongfeng No. 3 Express has a range of up to 2,000 kilometers, which is enough to cover every corner of all Saudi enemies, and has made an immediate and outstanding contribution to Saudi Arabia's national security!

Although China has only equipped Saudi Arabia's ballistic missiles with conventional warheads, it has still caused an uproar in the entire Western world! The United States soon approached China and demanded that the domestic side sign a treaty restricting the export of long-range missiles!

It is precisely with such a record that there is no need for the domestic side to even really sell weapons to Iraq, just a play is enough for the Americans to be scared for a while!
