Chapter 1245: Swarming to China
After another ten minutes, another shell from the warship in the distance exploded in the left rear of the fishing boat.
Although the explosion of this shell did not cause much damage to the fishing boat because of its long distance, and only a piece of shrapnel broke an iron railing, this shell once again frightened the crew who had just let go of their hearts a little bit, and two more crew members could not stand this game of cat and mouse and committed suicide by jumping into the sea.
Immediately, the cold voice of the Soviets came over the radio: "Warning again!" Report the situation here to your headquarters immediately and say whatever you see, otherwise, you will not have a chance to speak, and you will all go to see your Amaterasu Okami right away, just like the people on another fishing boat. β
Receiving this warning, the radio operator looked at the captain in horror and asked: "Captain, what to do?" β
The captain thought for a moment and said, "Report to headquarters immediately." Let's just say that here we met a Soviet warship on the way to the whaling site,......, you also report the exact coordinates,......, and say that the Soviet Navy ...... on absurd grounds"
The radio operator was frightened and asked, "Can we say that directly?" β
The captain said, "That's it." As a matter of fact, the Soviet Union was demonstrating its force against our country, just to let the Japanese government know. β
After all, the captain is the captain, and he can see some clues at once, after all, this thing is too abnormal today. He also thought of the current situation in Grenada, and thought that this might be a way for the Soviet Union to stimulate Japan and the United States, which was to improve the protection of Japan, and thus reduce the pressure on Grenada.
This can be regarded as having a brain and thinking, and he can associate this aspect. However, no matter how clever his mind was, he could not have imagined that this matter had little to do with Grenada, or that the situation in Grenada was only a contributing factor, and more importantly, the main reason was Japan's perfidy. The Soviet Union was not supplied with precision machine tools in accordance with the secret agreement between Japan and the Soviet Union, and the upgrade procedure for five-axis simultaneous CNC machine tools was not handed over to them on schedule.
The captain continued: "You can directly say that the Soviet Navy shelled us on the absurd pretext that we had disturbed their whales, sank a fishing boat, and killed all sixty-nine people on board from the captain down. It also killed five people on board and injured more than thirty others. Now we are escorted to the USSR by Soviet warships. We asked the headquarters to contact the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and ask them to rescue us. β
β¦β¦
The sinking and kidnapping of a Japanese fishing boat in its own country's traditional fishing grounds, and the failure of the United States to retreat from Grenada, were revealed in the media almost simultaneously, and world public opinion was in an uproar. It caused a panic.
No one expected that the United States would lose one after another, and that the entire army would retreat to avoid Grenada's counterattack. According to the results announced by Grenada, they shot down 93 US fighters of various types, destroyed and sank 21 warships, including a cruiser and a destroyer, killed 2,500 US troops, and captured 630 US soldiers. Among them were thirty-six pilots......
Although the US military announced small battle damage, it also admitted that 47 planes were shot down or crashed, five warships were sunk, six warships of various types were damaged, and 430 soldiers were missing. But they said that these losses were not enough to shake the ranks of the US military, and that they were more than capable of fighting again right away.
Although the number of jΓΉ varies greatly, although the shouting of the US military is still very large. But even according to the US military's own announcement, it was a heavy loss, and their clamor was just to cheer themselves up, and no one believed that the US military would be able to fight immediately. At least they had to prepare for a while again, even though they were using a rapid reaction force.
With such a big loss, is this still the US military? With such a big result, are they still Grenada?
Almost everyone who was optimistic about the United States beforehand and sneered at Grenada doubted their ears and eyes. It's those who previously thought Grenada wasn't so easy to bully. I also don't believe that Grenada can play at a super level.
Of course, many people are wondering where Grenada got so many sophisticated weapons. In the end, the Soviet Union provided it or China, and why the United States did not go crazy with those countries that provided advanced weapons.
While doubting the United States and Grenada, there are still many people who wonder what the USSR means by doing so now? Many people, like the hapless captain, thought that the Soviet Union was cooperating with Grenada and Cuba, and that it was preventing fire in the rear of the United States, and they couldn't help but think more: "Are they going to start a world war all over the world?" Will the war start on the Japanese side? Will the world break out into a third world war as a result? β
Countless questions, countless interpretations have reached every corner of the world through the guΓ² media (newspapers, radio, television), and people are terrified, not to mention the sensitive financial markets.
Immediately, the indices of major stock markets began to plummet, and the prices of precious metals such as gold began to soar......
Not to mention that Princess Madeleine didn't expect things to be like this, she didn't expect the profits from this investment to be so high, and even Guo Zhuocheng didn't expect the Soviet Union to come to join in the fun.
The Soviet shot turned the whole world upside down.
The United States hurriedly sent a special envoy to China, a Japanese envoy urgently flew to the United States, the British prime minister urgently spoke with the French president, and the United Nations convened an emergency meeting......
With the sharp fall of major stock markets and the sharp rise of gold, the IIC company controlled by Guo Zhuocheng naturally made a lot of money, and Guo Zhuocheng became more and more deified in the eyes of Princess Madeleine and those in the investment department, who almost regarded him as a god.
The money earned this time is nearly ten times that of five billion dollars, and the profits are rising further. Most of these profits were arranged by Guo Zhuocheng into the Chengxin Investment Bank, which was used to lend to China's outstanding state-owned and private enterprises, further driving China's economic take-off.
With the temporary retreat of American troops in Grenada, the fighting between the two sides has stopped, and the Soviet Union has not made any major disturbances, the world has slowly begun to calm down again, or people have become numb. Although everyone knows that the United States will not stop there, and the United States is mobilizing troops and is transferring aircraft carrier battle groups deployed in Europe and the Pacific to the Caribbean Sea, preparing to crush Grenada to pieces with the overwhelming force of Mount Tai, that is all for the future, and it will be at least a few months before the war begins.
Although their commanders believe that Grenada has been exhausted of its anti-aircraft missiles and anti-ship missiles after the last battle, it is impossible for a poor small country to have too much money to buy these sophisticated weapons, and China will not really provide them for free, let alone really hope that Grenada will drag the United States into the quagmire of war, thus completely offending the United States.
After all, as long as you are smart, you know that it is okay for Grenada to win a few battles by sneak attack, but it is absolutely unrealistic to expect it to contend with the United States, as long as the United States takes it seriously, as long as the United States really goes all out, not to mention one Grenada, even ten Grenadas are not enough for the United States to destroy.
As the world situation slowed down, so did the plummeting stock market.
And the Chinese leader is busy and happy to receive special envoys or diplomats from the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, France and other countries. The reason for the busyness is that there are so many people coming, not only the big Soviet and American countries, but also many small countries, and China has always claimed that all countries, big or small, are equal and should be treated fairly, which makes the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, especially the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the leaders of the country, very busy.
When the special envoys of the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, and France come, and China sends people at the level of foreign minister or vice premier or above to receive them, who do you send to receive the presidents and vice presidents of small countries? In that case, although people dare not say anything about their opinions, it is the Chinese themselves slapping themselves and discriminating against the widows of small countries, which is not the same as what you say in your mouth.
And to send ministers, deputy prime ministers, or even higher national leaders to receive the king, president, vice president or something of a small country, it is necessary to shoot a long, long queue. So much so that the foreign minister simply lived at the airport during this time, and his daily work was to go out from his place of residence, greet these leaders at the airport on behalf of the national leaders, and then send them to the convoy, where the leaders will officially greet them. Sometimes, it is necessary to put on the posture of the honor guard of the three services to make those foreign leaders who have used the honor guard of the three services to receive Chinese leaders feel comfortable.
So much so that people in the capital heard the sound of cannons from time to time. Even a three-year-old child would count the cannons and say, "This time there are only nineteen gun salutes, and it must be the vice president, not the president." It took twenty-one rings just now to be the president. β
The reason why so many heads of state, heads of state, and state leaders come to China is, of course, because of China. The United States has asked China for its desire to keep its promise not to sell high-end weapons and not to export high-end weapons to Grenada, and at the same time, it also asks China why it has violated the agreement, but it is very euphemistic, because after all, they cannot come up with real evidence, and the United States has not done these things, and they have secretly sold sophisticated weapons to other small countries.
Of course, China will not admit that it has sold sophisticated weapons to small countries, including Grenada, saying that those weapons have been sold a long time ago, that a third country is doing business, and that it has nothing to do with China. Although China has also told the other side not to transfer weapons, weapons are too sensitive, and as long as people do not agree with you to inspect them, China has no way to force them to be inspected. There is no way to find out whether their missiles were used up during exercises and training, or whether they were resold to other countries, because they don't let you check them at all, so it would be good to be able to give you a written explanation.
