Chapter 536: Get the Upper Hand
readx;???"" ="('"="">
The Chinese Empire, in cooperation with Germany, invested in the Middle East and seized the port of Singapore, which was definitely not good news for the British. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info rainbow, all the way with you..
The British, proceeding from their traditional foreign policy, sought to maintain the balance of power on the European continent, and certainly did not want Germany to be overly powerful.
Over the years, however, the Russians, under the banner of Great Slavism, continued to expand into the southern Slavic areas of the Balkan Peninsula.
The ghost ship is not hateful, and the secret house is cold
Faced with this situation, the British, of course, did not want to see Russia's power expand too much in the Balkans.
Chen Zhong knew very well that this was precisely the contradiction between the various powers over the colonies before the First World War.
The enemy is not far away, Sun Cha is too cold
The First War shook the European order of global domination, while the Second World War completely destroyed them.
World War I destroyed the old feudal empires of Europe, such as Tsarist Russia in eastern Europe and northern Asia, the German Empire in central Europe, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire in central Europe and the northwestern Balkans.
The power of imperialist countries such as Britain, France, and Italy was weakened, and the Ottoman Empire, which had once spanned Europe, Asia and Africa, was dissolved.

The cunning Americans, on the other hand, in the two world wars, first maintained neutrality and made a lot of war profits, and waited until both sides of the war were exhausted, and then played the role of the end of the war.
This is entirely a deliberate calculation by the Americans out of their own national interests.
Sun Yuanke hated the ghost ship and made trouble with the ghost of the sail gang
The United States maintained neutrality in both wars, then directly intervened in the wars at critical points and ensured the victory of the joining side, and envisioned the functioning of the postwar international order.
Sun Yuanke's hatred of the ghost ship and the haunted sail gang ghost Chen Zhong in view of this period of American strategy in the two world wars, he is considering that there should be many places to learn from this.
What the United States gained in these two wars was, first and foremost, undoubtedly wealth, that is, war trade with both sides of the war during neutrality, penetration and expansion of the global market in the process of post-war reconstruction, and the establishment of a new global order, the Bretton Woods system, to control the global economy.
The most striking post-war feature of these two world wars was the decline of the European powers.
The First War shook the global ruling order of Europe, while the Second World War completely destroyed them.
After World War I, the United States magically officially became a global power alongside European empires such as Britain and France.
After World War II, the United States has completely replaced Britain and France as a superpower and made it the political leader of the Western Hemisphere.

At the same time, the Americans, in the two world wars, gained the soft power of science and technology and ideas.
Europe had the world's deepest and most talented scientific research institutions before the two world wars, and the United States, even though it led the electrical revolution, lagged behind them in the field of basic research.

After the end of the two world wars, because a large number of scientists went to the United States for refuge due to the war, the United States received a large part of the scientific research strength of the Axis countries, so that the scientific research capacity of the United States expanded rapidly and became the leader of global scientific research.
In the post-war period, with the spread of American business and American capital, the American way of life spread rapidly in the ruins of Europe, and the influence of the United States grew around the world, especially in Europe.
Chen Zhong pointed out this period of Americans' strategy in the two world wars, and he considered that there should be many things to learn from it.
He wants to make the most of these two world wars to bring our country to a different situation.
Gain enough in these two world wars to make China, the strongest and richest country in the world a few decades later.
Therefore, during this period, it is necessary to seriously seize the opportunity to take advantage of the contradictions between the great powers, and be able to drag the United States into the whirlpool of this war and completely drag them down.
Let's analyze the Anglo-German strength in front of us, in fact, the difference between their navies is not so big.
Since Fisher became the Marshal of the British Navy, he has advocated that the British fleet should return to the map of the month, not the whole world.
As a result, the overseas fleet of the British Empire, except for the Atlantic Fleet, because it was relatively close, the African Fleet, the Indian Fleet, and even the Far East Fleet were all drained of most of the cutting-edge forces, and only a few warships that were on the verge of obsolescence served in these overseas military bases, so their combat effectiveness was extremely limited. There is no time to take care of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
And on the British mainland, almost all the new Dreadnought-class giant warships are concentrated, and in this area, they occupy an advantage. At the same time, it also firmly suppressed the German high seas fleet in the harbor and could not come out.
The enemy is hateful to the local sun, and the cold sail is sunny
The feud is not cool, and the investigation is not noisy
The Germans had also seen the situation clearly, and if they wanted to break through the British blockade, they could only look for military forces on the periphery that could contain the British.
As a result, Kaiser Wilhelm II, after receiving a plan from the Chinese Empire to sell him 30,000 tons of giant battleships and investment in the Middle East, readily agreed to cooperate.
Chen Zhong is making a more long-term plan.
He planned to achieve the rapid rise of the Chinese Empire during the First World War.
At present, it seems that relying on the military strength and comprehensive national strength of the Chinese Empire, this goal is completely achievable.
After all, he has a superior position than the people of this era, to be able to see the future, and to know what the countries are planning to do during these times.
Chen Zhong was thinking that a few decades later, most of the countries in the whole world would go through two world wars, one of which was to directly destroy the two powers of Russia and Austria-Hungary, and then ceased to exist after this war. But Britain, France and Germany will also lose their current strength. The only one who makes a profit is the United States.
Therefore, during this time, Chen Zhong was thinking about how to drag the United States into these two wars, or eliminate it during this period.
Support Germany now and make Germany stronger than it was in its history. The war was fought long enough with the German chariot.
When the Americans entered the war, the mighty army of the Chinese Empire came out of the sky to pick up the pieces.
That would definitely be an unimaginable development opportunity for the Chinese Empire.
Chen Zhong looked at the barren land of the Middle East on the world map, and he knew very well what kind of miracle would appear in such a barren land as the Middle East in a few decades
It was a land of legends, where the myth of wealth would be written.
Under every inch of land, there is a huge treasury.
It won't be long before the world will be amazed that this barren Middle East contains the liquid gold that the whole world is crazy about - oil.
The oil reserves here, accounting for 65% of the world's oil reserves, control the world energy market.
A change in policy in this region will have the opportunity to cause financial turmoil throughout the world.
Chen Zhong insisted that it would be an extremely important decision in this period to quickly intervene in the power of the Chinese Empire and inject huge funds into the Middle East.
