The frigate "Antelope" was the first to be shot in a prominent position when it overtook the task force.

The destroyers "Sheffield" and the "Atlantic Transporter" were almost shot in succession, at least the servicemen on board could not distinguish who was hit first and who was last.

The officers and men on the destroyer "Coventry" came, and it was very fair that the two unlucky ships were not only shot at the same time, but both were hit twice.

Yes, the destroyer "Sheffield" and the transport ship "Atlantic Transporter" were unlucky, and the remaining four missiles were divided equally among them.

And the lucky destroyer "Coventry" did nothing.

The damage to the destroyer "Sheffield" was almost the same as in the previous life: two missiles, one hit its tail, and one concentrated in its middle.

But its fate or the effect of the attack is a little different, in the previous life, it burned after being shot, but it did not sink immediately, but because the power generation equipment was damaged, the water pump in the cabin could not discharge a large amount of seawater, and the warship continued to sink, and the commander was forced to announce the abandonment of the ship, and finally sank on the way back to China.

But this time, because the missile that hit the middle of the hull moved some distance away from the one in the previous life, the exploding missile directly broke its keel, and the ship exploded into two sections at once, and the wreckage set off by the explosion wave was pulled down by gravity, and directly drilled into the bottom of the sea, leaving only huge whirlpools and strings of huge bubbles on the sea surface.

Except for a few unlucky and lucky soldiers on the deck who escaped when the explosion occurred, most of the soldiers, including the officers of the warship, sank into the dark abyss with the broken hull.

The remaining two YJ0 missiles hit the side of the Atlantic Transporter. In the violent explosion, the 000-ton sea giant ignited a sky-high fire, and its huge body and the massive materials it was carrying were enveloped in flames.

The officers and men of the destroyer "Coventry" could only watch as dozens of brand-new vertical take-off and landing fighters and several helicopters fixed on the deck of the transport ship gradually sank to the bottom of the sea in the skyrocketing firelight.

If it weren't for the only surviving captain who came to his senses and gave a loud order to save people, these demented soldiers didn't know how long they would have been in a daze.

……

Throughout the battle, the weak Argentine Air Force turned out to be a one-sided battle because of the Chinese YJ0 anti-ship missiles. In battle, the mighty Royal Navy of the British Empire was defenseless against the Argentine Navy. If it weren't for the fact that Argentina had purchased fewer anti-ship missiles, and if they had had two or three more YJ0s, the Argentine Air Force, which had not changed its name, would have been able to easily bury this powerful task force to the bottom of the sea unscathed!

The officers and men of the destroyer "Coventry" trembled one by one, and while they were going all out to rescue their comrades who had fallen into the water, their frightened eyes involuntarily looked to the western sky from time to time, fearing another surprise attack by Argentina.

It's a pity that the sky is dark and dreary, and there is not even starlight.

It was precisely because of the darkness of the night that the fear in their hearts was even increased, and some soldiers even trembled incessantly, unable to control it at all.

……

Guo Zhuocheng, who was staying in the hotel, had been waiting for news.

He anxiously glanced at the watch in his hand, glanced at the telephone on the table, and said to himself, "Why haven't you come yet?" According to the plan, the battle is already over. ”

Princess Madeleine, who was sitting in his arms, couldn't help but laugh and said, "Honey, you also have times when you are nervous? ”

Guo Shucheng said embarrassedly: "I have a lot of nervous times." Today's battle is so important for me, for my country......"

Princess Madeleine looked at Guo Humcheng a little puzzled, and said in her heart: "Isn't it about how much money you make?" How can you say that you are so strict? ”

However, she did not express the doubts in her heart, but kept forcing herself to accept his point of view: "It must be important! It's really important! ”

Although the relationship between the two is very close, she still regards him as an idol in her heart, and still feels that he is right, whether it is what he says or does.

This time she was clearly thinking right, and this fight was really important.

The reason why Guo Zhuocheng put down the important work of the Third Aircraft Department and came here is because the results of today's Argentine Air Force battle can affect China's national fortunes for a certain extent, and in Guo Zhuocheng's arrival, there is no other thing that can be more important than this battle, and it is far from being measured by hundreds of millions of dollars or even billions of dollars in sales profits. The direct effect is not only to be able to sell a large number of missiles at a high price, not only to be able to earn a large amount of foreign exchange because of this, not only to be able to carry out technological exchanges and scientific and technological exchanges with developed countries in order to obtain more and better technology, but more importantly, to enhance China's image and let the people of the world automatically classify China as a high-tech country.

The most important role is to help China seize the initiative in international exchanges, and to use this missile and related high-tech equipment to play a big political role, just like the arms embargo often used by Western countries, forcing many countries to comply, and if they are not obedient, they will not sell these weapons to you!

Everyone doesn't know that Guo Zhuocheng has a loftier or more crazy goal in his heart, that is, to establish an international monetary system with the participation of the renminbi or even the mainstay, so that the renminbi will become the world's major currency like the US dollar sooner rather than later. Someday, the renminbi will further replace the US dollar and become the world's only currency that is fully circulated in all countries in the world.

As we all know, a global monetary system is built gradually, and requires the support of a country's strong political, military, and economic power. A country as powerful as the United States has spent tremendous efforts for the dollar system, and it has taken several generations of struggle to complete it.

The mere example of one branch of the dollar monetary system, the dollar oil system, illustrates the difficulty of establishing such a system. The dollar oil system began in 97, and in this year, the United States signed a petrodollar agreement with the OPEC organization led by Saudi Arabia, stipulating that all international oil transactions will be settled in US dollars after that, which also symbolizes the establishment of the dollar oil system.

Oil, as an international trade commodity, as the blood of modern industrialized economies, is a very important strategic material, and no country can do without it. Using the US dollar to settle the oil trade means that any country in the world must have US dollars in reserve or have US dollars before you can buy oil. In this way, the U.S. dollar as a medium of exchange, has obtained huge benefits, the U.S. dollar, the world currency, occupies a monopoly position in the medium of exchange, using the U.S. dollar to settle, on the one hand, consolidating the hegemony of the U.S. dollar, on the other hand, but also enhancing the comprehensive national strength of the United States, bringing countless benefits to the United States.

First, the United States can levy an international seigniorage. International seigniorage is the income earned when a country's currency is used by another country. In this respect, the U.S. dollar denomination of the oil trade and other international trade allowed the United States to receive the same international seigniorage revenue. But the U.S. can print money to buy oil, and it can print money to buy other important goods, all they need to do is get the money printer to print it.

Because other countries can only have dollars by selling other important goods, and thus can buy oil from OPEC countries or national markets, they have to accept these banknotes, even if the real value of the banknotes is depreciated by the Americans in order to print more money.

Plundering other countries' vital goods with printed money is a privilege that no other country in the world has, and the United States can export the virtual symbol of the dollar in exchange for an injection of oil, a real resource.

Second, the United States can better influence and control the prices of the world's major materials, so that the prices of these major materials follow their own ideas. In the case of oil, for example, the petrodollar pricing mechanism means that the United States can effectively partially control the world crude oil market, because it is necessary to buy oil, and only the United States can issue dollars in this world. Since oil transactions are denominated in US dollars, the United States can influence international oil prices through interest rate adjustments and exchange rate policies.

As you know, there are three main factors that determine the price of oil: demand, supply and the exchange rate of the US dollar. As for how to use the dollar, exchange rates, and interest rates to control the price of oil, people with a little financial and economic knowledge can come up with various solutions. What's more, the United States has no shortage of economic experts and financial experts, and in their previous lives, didn't they play around like this with other countries?

Isn't China racking its brains now and in its previous life to increase its foreign exchange reserves? Find ways to sell the best products and resources in China to foreign countries, and then exchange them for huge numbers on the books. When there are no foreign exchange reserves, the country's leaders are in a hurry. As a result, with a huge amount of foreign exchange reserves, the country's leaders are just as anxious: they are helpless with this huge figure, and they are helpless to dripping blood from the depreciation of the dollar.

In the previous life, China had huge foreign exchange reserves but could not spend them, so it could only desperately buy US Treasury bonds to help the United States get rich and help the United States make money.

The U.S. government can have a large foreign debt and a huge fiscal deficit, but other countries can live trembling even if they have more foreign exchange reserves.

The strong military and political strength of the United States has maintained the operation of the US dollar international monetary system, while the US dollar international monetary system has improved the comprehensive national strength of the United States and strengthened its military and political strength, thus forming a virtuous circle.
