Chapter 490: The Last Chance of the English Empire
Finance Minister Fan Qianhai held the account book, and Central Bank Governor Zhang Suan held the abacus, walked in quickly, and even forgot Shi Li, so he said to Hu Zhen with a smile:
"Your Majesty, this real estate war in England is vigorous, just short to suppress the real estate in major cities in England, we have earned 300 million pounds in just a few days, and with the recovery of real estate prices in the future, our profits are at least three times higher than now!"
Hu Zhen was also very happy to hear the news, and did not take them as anything if they did not give him a gift, but he did not agree with a word they said: "No, what you are talking about is not right, it is just an isolated form of struggle, I think it would be more appropriate to use the term unrestricted warfare." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Unrestricted warfare?"
"Yes, or it would be more understandable to call it total warfare, but the term total warfare is not appropriate, and the name unrestricted warfare is more appropriate!"
Seeing that the two right-hand men in front of him who held the financial power of the empire looked at him puzzledly, Hu Zhen asked, "How many years have you followed me?" ”
Zhang Suan said: "Since the minister was rescued by the emperor in Europe, he has been following the emperor for ten years!" ”
Fan Qianhai also said: "The minister started in Nanyang and followed the emperor for ten years!" ”
Hu Zhen said solemnly: "In the past ten years, you think that it is as simple as following me to make money, but you are wrong, what you are conducting according to my intention is an unrestricted war, this is a war without gunpowder, and its intensity is no less than the real battlefield You fight to the death, the enemy killed will not be less than the enemy killed by the artillery fire of the Huaxia Army, you see, if it is not for the unrestricted war, can the Huaxia Army defeat the United States of Millihan, the first economic power?" If there was no unrestricted warfare, would the Huaxia Army be able to quickly sweep away the Qing court and unify China? In the same way, if there was no unrestricted warfare carried out in secret, would the Huaxia Army be able to quickly defeat the Hubei-Japanese coalition army? Can the combined fleets of European powers, which concentrate almost the entire world's naval power in a single war?
In short, in a word, without the unrestricted warfare financial war that you secretly operated, there would be no Chinese Empire today, and there would be no tomorrow of the Chinese Empire!
However, in order not to alarm the enemy, I have not even told you that you are actually engaged in an unprecedented war!
You are the heroes of the Chinese Empire in creating history, and it is not an exaggeration to award you any meritorious services and commendations!
Now, this war will continue, and it will not be announced to the public until many years from now, and you will not be publicly honored! ”
When Zhang Suan and Fan Qianhai heard Hu Zhen say this, they all leaned down emotionally, gave Hu Zhen a deep salute, and said in unison: "Following the emperor is the blessing of the minister, and the minister's family has now enjoyed the glory and wealth given by the emperor!" I don't want any medals and commendations! ”
Hu Zhen stopped their words and said: "You guys are not right, for meritorious men, medals and commendations are still to be given, but not now, the work you have to do now is, first, you must take advantage of the large-scale withdrawal of Jewish capital from the rice market, sweep the rice country, and beat the rice country to the ground forever; second, to continue to loot the European market, especially to disrupt England, so as to cooperate with the negotiating table and force the British Empire to recognize the territorial interests of the Chinese Empire; Third, we must vigorously build a healthy financial market in the Chinese Empire, a financial system that can withstand any storm! ”
Fan Qianhai said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the sharp drop in real estate prices in England is the beginning of the financial crisis, and we can take advantage of the victory to chase and completely sweep away the financial market in England!" ”
Who knows, Hu Zhen shook his head and said: "This unrestricted war cannot attack the enemy from one field in isolation, this must be considered as a whole, and the war in the financial field must also consider actions in conjunction with frontal military struggle, diplomatic negotiations and other links, what I want now is to force England to cede Australia at the negotiating table, and recognize the territory and interests we have seized, and firmly digest our vested interests."
This is different in dealing with the British Empire and the United States, dealing with the United States is to completely break the backbone of the United States, and dealing with the British has to cooperate with the negotiations to obtain the maximum benefits, and it cannot be used as the main means of attack. ”
Zhang Suan and Fan Qianhai bowed down and bowed: "Yes, follow the emperor's will!" ”
Hu Zhen took out two thick notebooks, handed them to the two, and said: "This is the goal of this financial offensive war, we must win them all, so as to better cooperate with Xue Fucheng's negotiations at the negotiation table!" ”
"Yes, the ministers act immediately!"
Compared with the large-scale unrestricted warfare secretly organized by the Chinese Empire, the English Empire knew nothing about it, let alone any organizational defense, and everything could only be passively beaten and lose its wealth little by little.
First, there was the collapse of the real estate market, followed by the collapse of the stock market and the collapse of the bond market.
The indiscriminate bombing of the Suez Canal by the aircraft weapons of the Huaxia Army aircraft carriers made all the merchants in the English market frightened.
Everyone thinks: the British army cannot resist this aerial weapon, and the end of the British Empire has come!
In this case, who else has the confidence to invest in stocks and bonds?
Without confidence, the financial market can only be a dead market!
The financial markets of the British Empire have encountered an unprecedented horror: the prices of all stocks and bonds, whether junk or high-quality, have been falling incessantly!
Not to mention that the British Empire has no theory of interfering with the bailout of the city, even if it wants to bail out the city, there is no astronomical amount of funds, it is all throwing small stones to fill the sea.
First the military strikes, then the invisible financial strikes, the attacks came like a tsunami, and the foundations of the English Empire were crumbling.
Caretaker Prime Minister Rossbury, who has a strong personality, did not go berserk in this unprecedented extreme situation, did not do anything extreme, but calmed down.
He met again with Salisbury, the leader of the Conservative Party, to reiterate his intention to rally support in times of crisis.
Salisbury did not condemn Rosebury for representing the Liberal Party, but said that at a time when the country is in crisis, the two factions should put aside their political views and unite to face challenges together.
The consensus of the two is: the last chance, and perhaps the only chance, for the British Empire is to immediately complete negotiations with the Chinese Empire and let the Chinese Empire give up the attack, even if it is acceptable to stop the attack temporarily!
Based on this judgment, Roseberry was going to be forced to sell the interests of the English Empire to the Chinese Empire in a big way! (To be continued.) )
