It is no wonder that these high-ranking government officials, and even some politicians, have seen too many emergencies in the process of climbing up, but Wall Street has suffered an almost devastating blow, which is completely beyond their imagination.

The most critical thing for the bank is the gold reserves, generally speaking, the branches have gold, but it is very rare, tons of gold, generally only placed in the headquarters, the high price of gold, so that he has become the best target for robbery, in order to protect, almost all the bank vaults are placed underground.

At a depth of several meters underground, there are high-rise buildings above, and all the thick steel around it constitutes a protective system, even if it is explosives used by the army, it is not easy to break, not to mention the gold itself, it is not easy to be destroyed.

But behind a long telegram, Ross recounted the incident in detail, the battleship seemed to have eyes, specifically aimed at the location of the vaults of the major banks, the vaults of the banks, which were uniquely designed, and the general bandits looked at him with admiration, even the army was not easy to deal with, but this is a battleship, this is the most powerful war weapon ever made by mankind, 15-inch naval guns, super armor-piercing shells, even the same battleship can be sunk, not to mention the bank vault, several meters thick steel, Compared with armor-piercing bullets, it can't be said to be paper paste, and it can only be regarded as an anti-theft door, which takes a little more effort.

The most important thing is that Ross also mentioned at the end that the other party used two inexplicable incendiary bombs, even steel can be melted, and the fire has completely surrounded Wall Street in New York, and Wall Street is finished.

When the heavy translation of the message was completed, no one could say a word, no one thought that this was the case, but the bank vault was attacked, which only represented the loss of gold, but if the bank vault, steel and building were completely burned, this loss may not be recovered.

Gold, in an independent country, in a country with the right to issue currency, represents the basic security, but also represents the ability to issue currency. 500 tons of gold, if the operation is good, can even issue 3 times, or even seem to 4 times the currency, in the era of the gold standard, only the last resort, will choose to sell gold, most of the gold, is as a reserve, left in the hands of the country, with gold, everything can be stable.

These are direct losses, maybe in the future to search the ruins, or even refining, you can also recover a little, plus other gold reserves in the United States, private gold, can barely survive the difficulties, but Wall Street itself is shrouded in fire, then the loss is even greater, all financial enterprises in the United States, accounts receivable, all kinds of capital transactions, and even depositors' certificates of deposit, there have been large-scale mistakes, if at this time, someone forges, it will be a big trouble.

"It can't be China, China doesn't have that much strength!" Thomas? Reed said with some anger that he was the speaker of the Republican Congress, and he had a natural contradiction with Wilson, representing the interests of the big bourgeoisie, and making a move against China, which was promoted and passed by the parliamentary forces headed by him, and it was he who criticized Wilson's conservative measures in Congress, and after a speech, determined the overall direction, and the feast for Chinese Americans began in this way, if it were not for China's evacuation of overseas Chinese, and hundreds of millions of dollars of funds were spent, maybe more than one-third of these tens of millions of Chinese Americans would die in the United States within a year or two.

"Are the soldiers on the front line blind? I can't see such a bright national flag, and in this world, in addition to Germany and China, there is also a country that can have the emperor level! The Admiralty retorted.

Earlier, Thomas has too many reasons to refute, the flag can be fake, it is not for nothing that a flag is hung casually to blame, the Americans themselves have done it, the Spanish-American War was like this, how could Spain, which was in decline, make a move with the United States, that is just an excuse, but later, he can't refute it, since Germany has the emperor level, as the biggest enemy of the Entente and the weapon with the greatest threat, the entire Entente has used too much power to evaluate the performance of the emperor level, Mainly among the many naval battles in which the emperor level participated.

In the era of battleships, as long as there are several engagements, most of the indicators of the battleship will be clear at a glance, which is also the fundamental reason why the level of battleships is not much different after entering the era of dreadnoughts.

The Emperor class as the main battleship of Germany, from the first time it appeared, it was valued by Britain and the United States, after several battles, the basic data of the Emperor class was obtained, and the protection was above, because there was no first-hand data, it was only an approximation, but the power and firepower were already understood, and the tonnage or something was not far from ten, but after the British and American battleship experts studied it, they found that they could not complete it, even if they made a battle patrol and sacrificed the armor, it was difficult to achieve this speed and firepower. Although Britain and the United States also designed a battleship based on this emperor class, it would take at least 3 years to complete it. That is to say, the Emperor class is unique in this world, only owned by Germany, or a secret shipyard in Asia.

Now the 5 Emperor class on the German side are operating in the Baltic Sea, huge warships, it is impossible to fake, with the Allied army, and a round of small-scale firefights, then this new warship is very likely to be really Chinese, before China did not participate in the war, Britain and the United States suspected that Germany may have transferred technology to China for various reasons, but no matter how big their brains are, they can't believe that Germany unreservedly gave the manufacturing technology of battleships to the Chinese, even if it is a transfer between Britain and the United States, It was also transferred after the United States basically mastered the technology of battleships.

But now, the appearance of the emperor class next to New York is an ironclad fact, and the most important thing is that this emperor class, it seems, is even better than the German emperor class, otherwise four ships would not be able to destroy the entire Wall Street.

More and more information is being reported, and everyone has an intuitive view of the losses on Wall Street and New York, but no one can do anything about what to do next

"They have to be kept?" Thomas said with some indignation, at this moment, he knows very well that his political career is over, the culprit is these 4 capital ships, this matter is too big, a Ross, and even the entire military force of New York can not afford it, among the high-level, Wilson is the president, he still clearly opposes the previous policy, even if he can't blame him, so a weighty, and erroneous high-level is essential.

Wilson and the high-level officials present all turned their eyes to the commander of the navy, and the commander of the navy smiled bitterly: "What should I do?" There is a problem with our defense, all the capital ships have gone to Europe, and the remaining battleships have problems even assembling, and they have not completed the assembly for a whole day, which also loses the last chance to attack the emperor. ”

In one day, the high-level leaders of the US military, politics, and business were gathered and discussed for a day, except for the few emperor-class ships that the military issued some pursuit orders and ordered the warships of the entire East Coast to assemble near New York and kill them at all costs.

Compared with the loss of Wall Street, from the hands of the Chinese, there is also the money that China spent for the evacuation of overseas Chinese, it is not worth mentioning at all, at this moment, they understand China's forbearance and terrible, in order to withdraw the Chinese, they paid money, but they are not ready to let go of the Americans, when the withdrawal of overseas Chinese is completed, they did not swallow their anger as they thought, but did not hesitate to choose revenge, this revenge came so directly, so ruthless, Shoot directly at New York, the largest city in the United States, and hit it in one fell swoop.

The Chinese can be patient and retaliate against the United States, but can the Americans do this? In the past, it was believed that China did not have a navy, and even if it did, it was very weak, and as soon as the Chinese came, they came up with such a powerful killing weapon, battleships, the same battleships as the emperor, although I don't know how they crossed the voyage of tens of thousands of nautical miles and finally came to the United States, but from this long voyage, we know that the Chinese are not bad at all in naval warfare, which makes the inherent views of the United States completely overturned.

Separated from the entire Pacific Ocean, the United States is not afraid to confront China, China has shown the strength of its army, and Russia is not an opponent at all, the huge Pacific Ocean, just like a curse, completely blocked the extension of China's military strength, but now, China can even take out 4 capital ships, as long as the Emperor class exceeds 10, under the protection of many other warships, China can already attack and land remotely, at least, the Hawaiian Islands, and many islands in the South Pacific, it is difficult to defend.

Once China has captured these islands, it will have enough springboard, China's huge construction and construction capacity has been proven in more than two years, as long as it has the ability to attack in the open ocean, China can relatively easily send troops to the islands, and then through construction, the island will become impregnable, and when the time comes, the two big countries on both sides of the Pacific Ocean, I am afraid that they will have to fight each other in the Pacific Ocean.

The reason why the United States pulled China into the war is because China is a threat to Russia, and at most it is active in the Middle East, and its influence on the overall war situation of the Entente is not very large, but now it seems that China not only has tremendous pressure on the Russian side, but even has the ability to attack the United States.
