Eastern Europe

The Free Army and the 11th Army of the Imperial Army met in Maiden, 170 kilometers from Moscow, and the first large-scale battle since the beginning of the war finally broke out.

The two sides who encountered it did not strike immediately, and they all stopped in unison, while on the alert, while arranging troops. It was not until the next morning that the Imperial Army attacked first.

In the face of the onslaught of the Imperial Army's Knightmare troops, they were greeted by tank units lined up on the plain.

Not even decent Knightmare troops, the militia is the militia.

There is no doubt that Knightmare has an advantage in maneuverability and agility over tanks, and the front commander of the Imperial Army smiled disdainfully when he saw the tank units of the Free Army.

But soon the smile on his face froze.

Complex terrain aside, but in this endless plain, the situation has formed a one-sided assault by tank units with large-caliber artillery.

With the advanced fire control system, the 120 mm 55 times diameter smoothbore gun fires a top speed of 1,750 meters per second, and the tail stabilized armor-piercing projectile can easily kill any target at a distance of 2 kilometers.

There may be a good driver who can make an effective evasive action in this little more than 1 second, but unfortunately this is a large-scale battlefield, and when making a juggling evasion maneuver, the pause gap is ushered in more shells, so the distance of 2 kilometers of the front line forms a dead line that cannot be crossed.

Without waiting for the Imperial Army to react, the siege tanks that had razed Smolensk roared again, and the powerful vacuum bombs fell into the Imperial Army's array, and Balklai, known as the 'Ice and Snow Vulture', immediately took out the housekeeping skills of high-speed movement warfare, and took the opportunity to invest in the Knightmare troops, completely tearing apart the Imperial Army's front.

But just when the Eastern European battlefield was in full swing.

No one could have imagined that a seemingly normal commercial lawsuit would become the prelude to the collapse of the EU republic.

All of this is due to the successful mass production of tritium batteries developed by Xinshi Lujie Energy Company at a low price.

This news once attracted the attention of all parties when it appeared. In fact, in addition to the Bunitanian Empire, which occupies the largest source of cherry stone in the world, the EU and the Chinese Federation have always paid attention to the development of this new energy source. After all, the share of less than 30% of Sakuraishi has to be divided between two superpowers, which is impossible to accept both in terms of industrial output value and psychology.

Before 2017, there was at least one international Sakurashi distribution meeting, but now that the Bunitania Empire and the EU are at war in an all-out war, this fig leaf has been completely abandoned, and the EU is more imminent to get rid of the Bunitania Empire's control than the Chinese Commonwealth, which is still at peace with the Bunitanian Empire on the surface.

Of course, the government is usually very cautious about the emergence of any new energy source, which is related to a huge chain of industrial systems, and the people need to adapt, and the capitalists need time to adapt. Because most people are optimistic about the future of new energy, the effect is only reflected in the fact that the stock price of the new world energy company has begun to rise steadily.

However, Mr. Sterry, who is popular with the EU people and is also the CEO of Xinshi Lujie Energy Company and Kramer Technology Company, also announced at the press conference that the new tritium battery is compatible with all current Sakurashi drive systems, and can provide more than three times the energy of traditional Sakurashi Energy. At present, the procurement intention has been reached with the EU Ministry of Defense. The number of the first deliveries will reach 3000

As soon as the news came out, the stock market showed significant volatility, with the share price of Xinshi Lujie Energy continuing to rise, while the stock price of Sakuraishi Energy-related companies began to decline slightly.

"The number of 3000 is actually very small relative to the needs of the army, but as soon as they realize the advantages of the new battery, the orders will naturally flow endlessly."

That's how Kamiyu explained it to Yufemia.

"So?"

"So, wait and see the show!" Kamiyu smiled meaningfully.

Sure enough, a week later.

EU's United Energy and a number of other traditional energy companies jointly filed a lawsuit against the company, accusing the company of using illegal means to encroach on the market. In this regard, both ordinary people and the upper elites understand that this is nothing more than the old energy giants trying to nip in the bud this up-and-comer who may trample under their feet.

The Supreme Court of the Republic, in accordance with judicial procedures, requested a hearing on whether or not to admit the indictment.

In this regard, the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Commerce and Trade of the Republic have shown unprecedented enthusiasm.

As long as you think about it carefully, you can understand that the technology mastered by the new world energy company has made the EU government red-eyed, and the government does not want this company to be wiped out, but it also does not want it to grow up and monopolize the domestic energy market in the future. Therefore, it is logical that the dispatch of officials to supervise its management will make it a natural matter for the EU to take advantage of this dispute, even if it cannot obtain a patent.

Only the result was unexpected, and at the hearing, UEG filed a new complaint. According to the allegations, the multiple explosions at the company's overseas and domestic storage warehouses a few days ago were terrorist attacks by the company in order to seize the market.

In response to such far-fetched accusations, Xinshi Lujie Energy pointed out on the spot that the explosions were self-directed and self-staged by United Energy, and that due to inaccurate risk assessments, Bunitania's attack on the EU led to the loss of a total of 4.5 billion overseas investments of United Energy in the last quarter. UEG is just blowing up warehouses that don't have any inventory, and passing on the responsibility for losses through speculation.

At the same time, the relevant communication between the board of directors and the bank of United Energy was also produced in court, as well as the relevant investigation report.

"Idiot! It might have been a tricky piece of evidence if it had been brought out at the time of the trial, but now, not only will it not work as well as it should, but it will even add a few more crimes," said the lawyer responsible for defending United Energy, smirking.

"Against! The recording of the communication provided by the other party cannot be used as valid evidence under Chinese law. ”

"The opposition is valid."

Before the official start of the trial, the lawyer, who seemed to have seen the victory, did not notice that the boss who hired him, the chairman of United Energy, was already stunned.

"Idiot, no, madman, this is a madman, only a madman would do such a crazy thing!" The slightly obese middle-aged man was covered in cold sweat, and he was unaware of the lighted cigar falling from his fingers and burning his pants, and his round eyes seemed to see the end of the world.

After the hearing, the chairman stumbled back into the company.

"Throw it away for me! I'm going to get rid of all my stocks! The first thing he did when he returned to the company was to bark at his secretary.

"Chairman?"

"Didn't you hear? Throw away all the stocks in my hands! ”

"It's good." The secretary, who wonders if his boss is crazy, is ready to quietly quit and let the boss sober himself up.

"That's right! Give me the currency of the Imperial Currency, and the currency of the Chinese Federation can also be used! ”

Hearing the instructions behind him, the secretary gently closed the door, and then shook his head with a wry smile.

At the same time, it is not only the chairman of United Energy, but also the bankers who are involved.

The hearing, which had been in the spotlight, made headlines in the media the next day, and everything that happened at the hearing was overwhelmingly reported.

It is naturally a matter for the court to accept the case by law, but the judicial authorities have found out more interesting things from the hearings, and the tapped communication recordings can be used as the basis for investigation, although they cannot be used as judicial evidence. The day after the court heard the lawsuit, the Ministry of Justice, together with the Central Bank of the European Union, conducted a financial investigation into the three banks involved: Paris, Harlem and Switzerland.

"Yufy, do you know what bank loan reserves are?" Camilleu, who got the news, let out a long sigh.

"I remember it was supposed to be the funds that were prepared to make sure that the bank had sufficient solvency in case of a sudden need to withdraw large amounts of cash. Commercial banks, on the other hand, are required to reserve a percentage of cash as reserves for each loan issued by the central bank. ”

"That's right, depending on the classification, the percentage of retention required is also different, and it involves a matter of leverage." Kamiyu took a soft breath.

"For non-performing loans, the government usually not only requires banks to set aside 100 percent reserves, but also punitively increases the reserve ratio. These three banks have provided a total of 3.3 billion yuan in loans to United Energy and several Sakurashi Energy companies, and according to the information I provided at the hearing, this 3.3 billion yuan is a certainty that it will become a non-performing loan. ”

"The loss of 3.3 billion, plus 100% reserves and penalty reserves, will be as high as more than 20 billion. Even if Paris, Harlem and Switzerland are the second, third and sixth largest banks in the EU, they may have no choice but to file for bankruptcy in the face of the sudden situation of losing billions of capital chains. ”

BNP Paribas claims to be the third largest bank in the world with an annual income of only 300 million, and suddenly loses billions or even tens of billions of cash, not to mention the rupture of the capital chain, and the stock market crash alone can bankrupt it. The EU is a capitalist country, and it is impossible for the central bank to transfuse blood for free

"Yuffie, do you know what it means when these three banks fail?" Kamiyu glanced back at Yufermia, and then added reluctantly.

"No, you don't have to know it. Now you're looking your best. ”

"I know the truth, Brother Huang." Euphemia turned her back and replied in a voice that only she could hear.

"Meaning the dominoes were toppled by our hands personally"
