The United States regretted this, and for the first time he found that for the sake of more than 10 billion dollars, it was simply suicide against such a country, and they should have thought that an industrialized country with industrial capacity and an extremely rich country are terrible, and if this country has a small population, it is easy to say, if the population is large, it is simply a nightmare.

The United States was stunned, and Britain was the same, as early as when the Chinese emperor attacked the United States, Britain felt bad, fortunately, except for Australia, whether it was China's attack on the United States mainland, or to take the lead in the Pacific, it didn't have much to do with Britain, after the outbreak of World War I, it urgently needed the support of the United States, and Britain basically handed over the islands that could be given up to the United States in exchange for the support of the United States, and it was only how long it took for the United States to hold these islands, and they were broken by China one after another. This more or less frustrated the British desire to turn back and take back the islands with the help of certain conditions.

As an existence that opens the door to China, and as an existence that has always had the greatest interests in China, Britain knows China very well, and even many British diplomats are China experts, not only understanding China's current situation, but also understanding China's history and culture.

What kind of place is China, for these China experts are very clear, for 10 years ago, Britain may not look at it, China is poor and backward, empty of a huge population and a large number of resources, in the most backward time, China can also produce tea, silk, porcelain, these things that are loved by the whole world powers, create enough value, and therefore cause China to become a dumping ground for foreign products, even more stupid because China has no industry, which is the biggest hard injury, even the most basic matches, flour is not produced in a way.

In the era of industrialization, the vast majority of the world's great powers have completed the transformation of industrialization and become a real industrial country, and the economic growth has reached a peak, and China has been completely thrown away.

In this era, all the countries that have gone through industrialization, especially the first country to go through industrialization, Britain, are very clear about how many difficulties there are, whether it is Britain first, or the United States and Germany, their industrialization time is at least more than a few decades, this is still the premise of having a foundation, China has nothing before development, but under the impossible situation, it has completed the process of industrialization, and it is unimaginable.

In the hearts of all the British high-level, I can't help but think of Napoleon more than a hundred years ago, this great man who almost swept across Europe, not only powerful means, but also shocking vision, even now, is admired and recognized by countless military experts, he has long seen that China is not ordinary, he is a sleeping lion, in fact, in the past 2000 years, in the West did not embark on the road of capitalism from the Renaissance, and even said that before the start of the Industrial Revolution, China was the most developed region in the world. The splendid civilization is not only on the front in history, but also on the population.

Whether a civilization is strong or not, the main thing is to look at the population, according to the distribution of the world's population, it has doubled in a few years, as long as there is a perfect physique, peaceful governance, plus enough food, the population can always increase rapidly, but unfortunately the four ancient civilizations, except for China, the magnificent history has been cut off, the most important thing is that China has completed an impossible task with relatively barren, even unsuitable land for the production of food, and has become the most populous country in the world, which the British did not expect beforeBut now it seems that this is a foundation, if China, or will be poor and backward, the huge population basically has no role, just to provide them with a dumping market, China has undergone a gorgeous transformation, 500 million people have become a huge war potential, 50 million, or even 60 million war mobilization capacity, the only thing Britain is fortunate about is that China is too far away from Europe, if Britain is the same as Russia, bordering China, maybe these huge troops, The push also bulldozed the British.

After the outbreak of the war, Britain and the United States regretted it for the first time, Russia at that time, they knew that Russia did not have any great capabilities, but with the title of European steamroller, they simply pulled Russia down in the camp, and it turned out that this can not be wrong, nor can it be regarded as a success, Russia has declined too much, the basic industrialization has not been completed, and there is no complete set of military system technology, but people are sent to the army, and people are pulled head.

Such tactics can't be wrong, put it 10 years ago, or 20 years ago in the war, Russia's approach, just by virtue of manpower, is enough to shake the world, but this is not 20 years ago, not 10 years ago, this is World War I, the world's first modern war, the emergence and popularization of barbed wire, trenches, machine guns and artillery, so that war weapons can easily harvest lives, in a unique environment, 2 people plus 2 machine guns and enough logistics, can withstand a regiment, Even more armies without artillery, which before the First World War, was simply fantastic, but in the First World War it was a real existence, machine guns and barbed wire, which changed the shape of warfare.

Even compared with the First World War in history, this World War has changed because of China's participation, because of the emergence of China, the German Army has evolved, in the initial state of the First World War, the proportion of division-level machine guns and artillery equipment reached the late World War I, and with the gradual improvement of the course of the war, and even mastered the correct use of trenches and barbed wire in advance, the combat effectiveness of the German army is higher than in history.

The development of things is not static, because the changes in Germany, even with the entire European war The level and standards have been raised, the standards have been raised, the losses are also increasing, the changes in Germany, Britain and France can keep up, the United States has barely kept up after suffering a big loss, and it has stepped on the spot, without funds and military strength, and Russia has been on the street to improve itself, not that they don't want to keep up, and even the basic rifle has no way to meet the needs of the whole country, and the previous way is already the limit with the support of the United States, There was no way to make changes to their own forces like the rest of the Entente.

This is also the fundamental reason for the scum of Russia's combat effectiveness, although Britain looks down on Russia, but does not dare to look down on China, a military power with a limit of 100 million military mobilization capabilities, and the weapons it produces can also be supported, which is probably more terrible than the steamroller, and the most important thing is that I heard that Germany's military technology is obtained in China.

The relationship between China and Germany, when China entered the war, what was previously concealed, gradually exposed, in the eyes of various countries, China for military reform and military innovation, has always been at the forefront of the world, before the United States and Britain were puzzled, honest and old-fashioned Germany, why there are so many whims, at that time there were only some doubts, now look at the connection between Germany and China, along with China exposing more and more secrets, in many ways, China and Germany have close contacts, in this case, How could the Americans not guess what China wanted to do, and then China was the only one to change Germany.

Now, China is obviously not letting go of this side, in Guam, exposing the forces invested by China, the United States weighed it, and found that at present, under the premise of not losing 12 capital ships, there is no ability to keep up with China in the Pacific Ocean, they can't even support one island at a time, they can only strengthen the defense of the west coast, and guard the United States, with the huge Pacific Ocean to slow down China's speed, after all, this is a moat, as the world's largest ocean, occupying one-third of the earth's area, Half of the ocean area, from the easternmost to the westernmost, is at least more than 12,000 kilometers, which occupies almost one-third of the entire earth's equatorial line, even if China occupies a large number of islands in the Pacific Ocean, it is impossible to erase this distance, even from Hawaii to the east coast of the United States, there are 4,000 kilometers.

In this sense, the Americans are not wrong in their thinking, but if they are placed in the course of the entire war, this is a thing, a huge error of judgment. That's right, it was a mistake of judgment, because with the help of this judgment, the United States did not choose a strategic decisive battle with China, or exchanged time for space to build fortifications on the island, but retreated on a large scale.

Speaking of retreat, there is only Hawaii, where is the essence of the United States, the soldiers withdrawn from the Philippines, the army, and even some of the warships, are in Hawaii, Hawaii as the United States, and even the most important sugar producing area in the world, he has accumulated a lot of wealth, rather than these wealth was broken by China, fell into the hands of the Chinese, it is better to return to the United States.

The unique perspective of the Americans, as well as the characteristics of the United States not being able to fight a tough war, in a desperate situation, there is no characteristic of a spirit of sacrifice, which is undoubtedly displayed here, for the United States, this is normal, for China, this is a surprise, a huge Hawaii, all the islands, in China's view, may have to pay a huge price to be able to take, and now, it is presented in front of China without defense.

In the vicinity of Hawaii, the phenomenon of increasing the number of merchant ships was still detected by the Chinese side, and a large number of submarines were operating in Hawaii, but they did not make a move, especially when they found that the American merchant ships did not go to Hawaii to send supplies or assistance to the US troops in Hawaii, but when they moved out of Hawaii, everyone was more assured, a huge, strategically located island, an island that could raise the sea area controlled by China by more than 6,000 kilometers, one at any time. Even a few hundred years later, a place that would be enough to be called an important military base has become the prey of China, and it may be effortless, how can China let it go.

If Guam is a regional base, Hawaii's status is still above Guam, and he can even build a relatively large-scale industrial base to give huge support to the Hawaiian military base, as for the things that the Americans take away with merchant ships, it doesn't matter at all, in a large-scale war, those things taken from Hawaii may be a huge wealth for a family, for most of the rich, but for the country, especially for China and the United States, a big country that spans the Great Zhou, It's nothing at all, not even the soldiers who were transported away, and their return to the United States will not greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the United States.

In this case, attacking these ships, a careless, but will expose the strength of China's submarines, for the future exhibition, play an immeasurable consequence, China's submarines, after further transformation, already have the ability to catch up with the large fleet to fight, powerful electric torpedo submarine combination, in the battleship duel, to such a battleship duel, will play a considerable role, this role, play at a critical moment, will allow China to obtain immeasurable benefits.

There are too many cards in China's hands, but some hole cards are not suitable for showing at this time.

However, this information was sent back to China, China is very happy about this matter, Hawaii, the U.S. military only developed Pearl Harbor in later generations, and now, it seems that it can be comprehensively developed, after all, the military base on the island is closer to Asia, Hawaii only needs to be about the same, but in the future, it will become an important center of China's war with the United States, and most of the troops who go to the United States to fight will simply stay here, and then integrate, or even train, here is far from the United States, With a range of only 4,000 kilometers, the distance is much, much closer in a sense.

It was only after that that the United States regretted giving up Hawaii, and even later generations of scholars and military officers, in the analysis of the First World War, the location of the defeat, also regarded this abandonment of Hawaii as ignoring China in the war, one of the biggest failures, if the U.S. military held on to Hawaii, even if it was only for a year, it would be enough to support until the war changed, and later, when warships, aircraft carriers, and even carrier-based aircraft could be deployed to Hawaii, Hawaii would be impregnable, the Chinese have lost an important node to attack the United States, and the US military can also use Hawaii as a barrier to fight with China closer to Asia, perhaps the United States is still not an opponent, or it is possible to fail or even defeat, but the losses of the United States will be reduced to the minimum, and even in the future, the United States may still maintain peace, rather than the future generations, almost divided and dismembered, forming more than a dozen countries of different sizes.
