The collapse of the Bretton Woods system?

Adenauer immediately shook his head, this is impossible, the people of the United States absolutely cannot accept such a result, although everyone is desperately digging into their corners, but in fact, they all understand that when something really happens, they have to rely on them to stand up to the front, after all, it is not Yang Feng who faces the torrent of Soviet armor.

But his dual price system is a good suggestion.

This plan not only solves the impact of the depreciation of the dollar on central banks in the short term, but also allows the dollar reserves to become a bargaining chip with the United States, and enhances the voice of European countries in front of the United States. For example, if West Germany wants to force the United States to do something, it can first tell them to exchange five billion dollars of gold, that is, 4,000 tons, if the United States refuses to exchange, it means that the Bretton Forest system exists in name only, and the credit of the United States is gone. If you don't want the crumbling Bretton Woods system to collapse, and you don't want to give up your precious gold reserves, then promise us certain conditions, and then we don't exchange them ourselves.

At this time, Adenauer also understood why Yang Feng proposed such a plan, this guy has 10 billion US dollars in his hands, and this is only the foreign exchange reserves of the Imperial Bank, if you count the industries he holds in Europe and the United States, he can directly exchange all the gold reserves of the United States, so it is actually equivalent to him pressing the knife on the neck of the United States.

"Your Excellency, I have to say that you have put forward a very constructive proposal, and perhaps we should invite the relevant countries to sit down and talk."

Adenauer said with a smile.

As for his arms purchases, there is nothing to say, and West Germany at this time was almost fully equipped with Ming-style equipment. From tanks to aircraft missiles to submarines. Or directly imported from Daming. Or the introduction of authorized production, or even relying on the authorized production and export of those arms, so that the West German military industry is also booming, for example, the European leopard has become the equipment of most countries in Western Europe.

As for the Sky Shattering missile they want to buy, this one is not a big deal.

Yang Feng's Earthquake 2 has already begun to be tested, of course, he will no longer hold the Earthquake 1 firmly in his arms, and it is impossible for him to take out the best Earthquake Extension Type, the Earthquake Basic Type with a range of 70 kilometers. And then modify the guidance system and replace some things that are too high-end, so that it's basically okay. Anyway, West Germany basically won't use it in actual combat, it's usually just a drill to shoot a target, and it's not a big deal if the performance is a little worse, even if this thing is a monkey version, it is far more than the beagle.

After finishing the visit to the aircraft carrier, he flew back to the sky with Adenauer, and summoned envoys from Britain and France on his yacht to sit down and study how to deal with the dollar crisis, or how to force the United States to carry this matter on its own. As for his bivalent system. Of course, everyone must agree that the gold treasury plan of the people of the United States is for everyone to join forces. Take out at least a few hundred tons of gold to help them tide over the difficulties, Yang Feng's dual-price system is that everyone stands by and watches, pushing the country out of the country to top the thunder themselves, which of the two plans is more popular.

The remaining question is how to make the people of the United States so obedient.

But in general, if they don't listen, they have to find a way to make them listen, the depreciation of the dollar is to put it bluntly, they still made it themselves, if it weren't for the Federal Reserve's unscrupulous issuance of money, how could it get to the point where it is today, since it was made by the United States itself, why let others rub their pi shares?

It doesn't make sense!

As for the reduction of the gold reserves of the United States from 20,000 tons to less than 13,000 tons, it is entirely because they have been exchanged by these guys, so there is no need to mention this.

Just as these guys were sitting on the deck in the sun, drinking tea with the cool sea breeze and studying how to pit the boss, their boss was still struggling in the two quagmires of the Wa Kingdom and Annam, especially the bad news of the Wa State battlefield continued to stimulate the nerves of the people of the United States, and a Wa National Liberation Army separated from Niigata along the west coast of the empty defense, all the way forward to Fukui, and the people of the original Kansai base area sang and danced to welcome their relatives.

There are indeed many of them who are relatives, and the thousands of people who fled to Hokkaido after the fall of the Kansai base area were already the core of the Japanese People's Liberation Army at this time.

Immediately after that, the army was directed to Nagoya and Osaka, and Nixon had to send an additional infantry division to the Japanese again, bringing the total strength of the American army on the battlefield to five divisions, so that they could hold back their troops in the mountains of Gifu. However, the situation was still critical, because the Japanese in Osaka and Nagoya were already ready to rebel, and Hiroshima Okayama and other places had already begun to rebel, and the guerrillas even threatened the rear of the American army.

In this case, Nixon had to increase his troops again, and put another division into the Japanese state, so that the total strength of the Japanese country reached six divisions, if you add three divisions of Annam, the United States is currently used for front-line operations to reach nine divisions, even more than the troops invested in the Goryeo War, but at that time they had a bunch of allies, and now they have no allies to follow except South Goryeo.

European countries have refused to send troops to the Japanese country, the allies in Asia are too busy to take care of themselves, the original most loyal thug Australia after being lame by Yang Feng, has long been in no mood to go out to follow the boss of the United States to fight in the east and west, in fact, Australia at this time is gradually moving away from the United States, and re-moving towards the European hometown, after all, under Yang Feng's nose, he still dares to hook up with the United States, which is purely looking for death.

Compared with the unreliable protection of the United States, the relationship between Britain and Yang Feng is more worthy of reliance.

And in the United States, Hoover is still digging into the ground like crazy to find Shigenobu House and the dozen or so nuclear bombs, and even Miss Masako's residence has been searched many times, of course, the result will definitely not be found, let alone hiding nuclear bombs, even if the radiation is slightly exceeded, there is no sign of it. This little girl who was persecuted by the Socialist Party and her parents died is obviously not suspicious, but it is not certain that she is not suspected of other Japanese people, Hoover arrested thousands of suspected terrorists from all over the country for investigation, and some extraordinary means are naturally indispensable in the process.

In addition, even if they were not arrested, many of them were closely monitored and frequently deported in various places, and some Mi people even proposed that the method of setting up concentration camps should be restored and all Japanese immigrants should be kept in captivity, so that there is no need to worry about them coming out and harming society. There are also people who propose to simply move all the Japanese immigrants to a certain trusteeship island in the Pacific Ocean to fend for themselves, and even think that the easiest way is to throw them back to their hometowns.

After all, the Japanese country at this time was different from the time of World War II, when the two sides were enemies who were not enemies, even if the United States really had some measures against the Japanese overseas Chinese, it was understandable, but at this time the two sides were still allies, and those Japanese overseas Chinese were citizens from the Japanese Empire, okay?

However, these messy things did not affect Nixon, at this time, although the election in the United States has not ended, there is basically no suspense, Kennedy is as high as 70% support, and victory is already a sure thing. Since Nixon is so idle that he won't bother to make wedding clothes for others, he will step down in a few months anyway, whether abroad or domestic, just maintain the same situation, and leave the mess to Kennedy to solve!

He was also very passive in dealing with the dollar crisis, and after the unanimous opposition of the allies to the gold treasury plan, he reacted lukewarmly to the bivalent system proposed by Britain and France, and the progress of negotiations within the International Monetary Fund was slow.

In short, he is now dragging out and putting off all the troubles as much as possible, which is also the reason why he is so happy to continue to increase troops to the Japanese state, anyway, in the end, the headache is still Kennedy, the withdrawal of troops will make the situation worsen or even defeated, and if he does not withdraw his troops, the financial situation will deteriorate or even be unsustainable, and then the Republican Party can take the opportunity to attack him, so as to regain popularity, it can be said that the more nails are planted for Kennedy now, the faster the Republican Party's popularity will recover in the future.

When Kennedy came to power with the hopes of all the people of the United States, and then he was still struggling in the quagmire, and maybe even sinking deeper and deeper, people will find that compared with Eisenhower, Nixon, and the Republican Party, in fact, this idol president and the Democratic Party behind him are also a bad thing.

It can be said that since the Republican Party is not capable of washing itself clean, it is better to drag the Democratic Party into the mud.

In the eyes of the whole world, the election day of the United States finally arrived, and voters in all states of the United States went to the polling places to vote for the presidential candidates and electors in their respective states, and soon the results of the elections in each state were counted one after another, and the results were not unexpected, and Kennedy won in most states. Although the Electoral College will need to vote in December, according to state law, with the exception of Maine and Nebraska, all the winners of the state automatically receive all the electoral votes in their state, so the vote in the Electoral College is largely a formality, and the congressional vote count early next year is purely ceremonial.

The outcome on election day is essentially final.

And this time, the final result is Kennedy's victory, which means that the new president of the United States will be him, and he will be sworn in on Capitol Hill two months later, officially taking over the leadership of the world's largest power, although what awaits him is a sea of internal and external troubles.
