There are direct losses and indirect losses caused by the war, but if the two armies are facing each other, or if they conquer cities, such direct losses are larger, and indirect losses may not be much, unless it is a city like Paris, otherwise, as long as there are a few days of preparation time, important materials and so on can be withdrawn.

China's dispatch of a sneak attack fleet to attack New York has huge ambitions, and in fact, from the moment the sneak attack fleet arrives in New York and is not discovered by the Americans, China's plot has been a perfect success.

If an American financial center like Wall Street is attacked without any defense, or even without any transfer, the indirect losses will be much greater, especially since China has made countless distinctions, and many attacks are aimed at the most valuable targets.

The subsequent losses will gradually increase, even magnified to ten times, twenty times, finance is like this, when it is smooth, you can cover up all the problems, but once there is a problem, then it is like a domino, a push will fall, the economic crisis, at the beginning, may be a small link, there is a problem, but once the tide is formed, it is like a whistling tsunami, sweeping everything.

Because of the warrior economy, the United States has made up for a lot of weaknesses, and even the speed at which Wall Street issued stocks is not as fast as it used to be, and this time it has dealt a near-devastating blow to the entire financial industry by targeting the core area, and the extent of such a blow is completely unacceptable, and most importantly, the United States has no experience in being hit.

In the more than 200 years since the founding of the United States, except for the war when it was just founded, there was only the Civil War, and most of the time, it was watching others fight, and the United States was blessed with a unique environment, and there was only one Canada in the vicinity of the big country, and there was a vast and sparsely populated area with only more than 10 million people, and for the United States, it had no impact at all, and they would not threaten the United States.

Even after participating in the European war, what has changed is only the European army, and those troops are rarely transferred back to China, and under the deepening of the war, the requirements for the army are unlimited, and the United States can only organize its troops at home, and then gradually transfer them to Europe, and it is impossible for European troops to get a chance to come back.

This has caused a huge contrast, the United States army in Europe is quite strong, almost a grade with Britain and France, can fight head-on with Germany, but the domestic army, whether it is the army, the navy, all are more than one grade behind, this does not appear in peacetime, but this time, China's fleet gave them a blow to the head, they only then knew that China has the ability to attack them, and one attack attacked New York, the financial center.

This blow to the head of the blow, the loss to the Americans is huge, as far as you can see, the entire Wall Street, almost destroyed most of it, all the essence of the part, the place with abundant funds, almost devastated, later, after the war, the United States for the final statistics of this attack, the direct loss of the entire New York is as high as 1.2 billion US dollars, the vast majority of the 1.2 billion US dollars are gold losses, 500 tons of gold, the direct economic value of more than 400 million US dollars, Counting the various extended values of gold, the loss of this alone is more than 2 billion, plus the loss of urban areas, fires, houses and many other losses, the blow to the United States is very staggering.

In addition to the direct losses, the subsequent losses are even more staggering, the final figure is as high as more than 9 billion, it can be said unceremoniously, the profits obtained from China, basically, after such an attack, handed over, the United States not only did not take advantage of China, with the entire New York and Wall Street in exchange for China's goods, everyone knows that it is a big loss.

The attack lasted for more than 1 hour, and at this time the four battleships were already quite close to the shore, and even along the position of the estuary, gradually going inward, the huge barrels poured death and flames, as if they never stopped, those naval officers who were more familiar with the battleships, and even shouted out in a lost voice, the reserve of cannonballs of the emperor-level standard, there will definitely not be so much, it stands to reason that the reserves have reached the bottom, why can the other party still launch, so unhurried, Aren't they worried about getting all the shells out?

The naval officer even had the idea of ordering the torpedo boats to take the risk of attacking again, but this thought disappeared without a trace after just turning in his mind, and at the moment when the four battleships were wreaking, especially when they showed great attack power and accuracy, they only relied on a possibility to let the torpedo boats go out, and no one would carry out this order at the moment when the bloody young men were already dead.

The raid fleet's attack on New York continued, and every minute and every second brought great damage, especially the many chaebol children present, more and more people fainted, and they were all unbearable losses, especially one cannon after another, and fainted from the increase in losses little by little.

Among them, JP Morgan and Rockefeller Jr., one of the two largest chaebols, are the focus, Rockefeller is a little better, their focus is not on Wall Street, although they have lost a lot, but most of them are housing and real estate, these losses together, it will not be much, especially for the Rockefeller family, it is not a problem at all.

But in the heart of JP Morgan, the leader of the top consortium with him, JP Morgan, is a different look, his loss is more than imagined, and even JP Morgan's hands are trembling, from taking over the Morgan family to the present, he has never been as powerless as now, even when the Morgan family was just established, when it experienced a series of crises, it was not like this, and now the core bank has been devastated, and the loss of gold may be as high as 250 tons, This is a completely unacceptable figure, not to mention the consequences of the bank's destruction.

In the eyes of a consortium like Morgan, even the war between the Entente and the Allies is a distant data for him, what he should do is to wave money and invest in one military industry after another, and then with the help of the influence of the Morgan family, obtain orders from the military, and even Britain and France, so that the investment will be rewarded, in times of war, the price of basic materials and arms has risen several times, no matter what is invested to make money, Morgan will definitely make a shot in the industry with the best return on investment, The Morgan consortium, which basically controls a considerable part of US finance, has such confidence.

But now, everything is over, in Morgan's bank vault, there are 250 tons of gold, according to the exchange price of 20 dollars per ounce of gold, 250 tons is equivalent to 180 million US dollars, of course, this figure can not be calculated in this way, gold has value, not only with the dollar, he can be issued as a general equivalent for dollars, conservative estimates, the overall price should be more than 5 times the price of gold.

Just the price of gold is enough to make the Morgan family suffer a big loss, not to mention the various data lost, countless securities, crafts, and even personal belongings stored in the bank headquarters, God knows what's inside, Morgan, who owns the safe, won't count what is stored inside.

With direct losses of more than 1 billion and incalculable indirect losses, even JP Morgan, who has seen a lot of storms, does not dare to say that the Morgan family will definitely be able to survive this crisis, and even if it can survive, the Morgan family will definitely suffer a big loss.

JP Morgan even grabbed Ross by the neck with some gaffes and shouted frantically: "Why, why can the Chinese find the location of our bank so accurately!" ”

JP Morgan's words almost say what everyone thinks, bank vaults, in any bank, are the most important, absolutely tightly guarded, and even some banks, the location of the vault is secret, even if it is a New York native, it is impossible to know, this is not one or two, but hundreds.

No one can answer his question, this question is not only JP Morgan's question, but also the question of many chaebol children here, Ross doesn't know, he really doesn't know, is he a traitor, or a spy, in fact, it's neither, leaking this, it can't be said to be a spy, one year ago, when the United States did not take action against China, there was no restriction on Chinese Americans, some wealthy people among Chinese Americans received an order asking them to investigate the location of bank vaults.

This is a very difficult thing for ordinary people to do, but for these rich people, it is a very easy thing, at that time China took out some of the in-demand material distribution rights as bait, very attractive to some of the rich, because the amount of these materials is huge, as long as a small part is sold, it is enough to be worth millions of dollars, they only have to pay the price of a few high-grade safes, each will not exceed 1000 US dollars, as long as you enter the highest-grade safe, you can enter the bank's vault.

It is precisely because of the efforts of the Chinese billionaires that the Chinese side is clear about the vaults, safes, and even the intelligence of important places in the vast majority of Wall Street banks in the United States, and the cost of these in China will not exceed 1 million.

At that time, this was just a precautionary measure, and at a certain moment, they attacked their vaults, but they did not expect that it would become a template for this attack, and for them, there was nothing better than hitting the other party's gold reserves.

Like JP Morgan, in the entire command center, all the bankers are like dirt, their family, their bank, to a certain extent, is far less powerful than the Morgan family, that is to say, but the loss is real, they are different from the Morgan chaebol, there are many other projects to supplement, for the small chaebol, maybe a national bank, is the only wealth of one or several of their families, and now, this wealth has been completely knocked into the dust, they are afraid to be finished.
