Chapter 90: Once Upon a Time in America

And Zhang Cheng's real thoughts in his heart at this moment are indeed "The heads of these old stubborns are full of stones." Hurry up and stay in the garbage dump, and don't be a stumbling block to the rearmament of the Army. "Although I had been mentally prepared for the conservative forces in the army, I didn't expect them to be so powerful.

"You mean we're also going to promote the development of civil aviation clubs?" Lieutenant General Shi Qin frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes." Zhang Cheng nodded heavily, "And be fast, you have to push hard!" Provide support and help as much as possible, and shell out a lot of money to do this. Believe me, although the investment that seems to throw a lot of money into the water now will become a stroke of genius in the future when a brutal war of attrition breaks out! ”

"Alright." Marshal Yang Zhuo got up and put on his military hat and waved his hand to stop the restlessness of the generals. Raised his eyelids slightly to look at Zhang Cheng, and said softly, "Like the navy, everything is still decided after seeing it with your own eyes." You write me a report and put all your thoughts on it. After a pause, he continued, "All sides." With that, he turned around and walked out of the conference room, and the meeting ended halfway.

In fact, Marshal Yang Zhuo also understood that Zhang Cheng's words were very reasonable and correct. However, although he is the commander of the army, the conservative forces in the army have been rampant for so many years, where can he, a new army commander, completely reverse it all at once?

Although Lord Shousuke can appoint and dismiss high-level officials, including army commanders, there are so many generals in the army who can't all be dismissed, right?

The generals on active duty in the army have long been rigid in their thinking under the influence of conservative forces for so many years, and it is difficult for them to accept the impact of new things. Moreover, the various complex contradictions of interests in the army are chaotic and disorganized, and the involvement is too deep and extensive. Zhang Cheng simply said that he would never be able to convince these people.

Therefore, Marshal Yang Zhuo terminated this meeting and put everything after the actual confrontation. When the time comes, seeing is believing, and no matter how stubborn a person is, he can only bow his head in front of the facts, otherwise he will have nothing to do. He Yang Zhuo also has the reputation of righteousness.

"Your tank is ready?" After the generals had left, Lieutenant General Shi Qin stood up from his seat and slowly walked to Zhang Cheng's side. took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhang Cheng, picked up one and lit it himself, and asked softly.

'Smack! Zhang Cheng took out the lighter and lit a cigarette, raised his chin slightly, took a deep breath and nodded in response, "I was ready two months ago, and I have been training rigorously during this time." I knew that in order for the conservative Army to accept everything new, I had to slap them hard and wake them all up. ”

"Huh." Lieutenant General Shi Qin shook his head and chuckled, his eyes fluctuated slightly, and he vaguely pointed at Zhang Cheng, "I am very surprised that you always have an attitude of hating iron and steel." You young man, you're too sharp. ”

"No way." Zhang Cheng slowly lowered his eyelids and whispered, "I don't want to either." But it's too late to go step by step slowly. ”

Lieutenant General Shi Qin's body paused slightly, and then he said in confusion: "How long do you think the war will start?" ”

"Five years at the earliest." Zhang Cheng replied softly: "It won't be more than eight years at the latest." And once the war starts, it will be a brutal war of attrition that will sweep the whole world. ”

"What's the trigger?" Lieutenant General Shi Qin was silent for a moment before asking softly.

"An economic crisis of unprecedented proportions. Countries around the world will be hit hard by this crisis. Zhang Cheng explained calmly, "In order to get out of the crisis, pass on the heavy price." The best way to do that is a large-scale war that destroys everything. Tear everything down, make the opponent pay for the economic crisis and the war, and reshuffle the cards again. ”

"Will the United States go to war?" Lieutenant General Shi Qin asked with a frown.

"Definitely!" Zhang Cheng nodded in response, "This will be their best opportunity to step out of the Americas and lead the world." Savvy Americans will never let it go. ”

The full name of the United States is the United States of America. It is an eternal pain in the hearts of all Ming people.

The United States is the second most powerful country in the world after the Ming Dynasty in this era, and its industrial strength is extremely strong. However, its years of industrialization have laid the groundwork for a large-scale economic crisis. The United States, which lacks overseas markets to dump industrial products, knows very well that the only way to seize the huge overseas market from the hands of the Ming Dynasty is war!

In the 15th century, the British founded Jamestown on Besabic Beach, the first permanent British colony in North America.

In the following hundred years, a large number of people who could not survive in Europe crossed the vast Atlantic Ocean to the American continent in pursuit of a new life. Most of them are British. By the mid-eighteenth century, before the Second Global War began, the British had established thirteen colonies on the east coast of North America.

Around the same time, the Ming people from Hawaii also arrived on the west coast of the Americas and founded a city called the Golden Mountain, which was later renamed San Francisco after the discovery of a new large gold mine in Australia.

Both sides were veterans of colonization, and at the same time they rapidly expanded inland, quickly crushing the local Indians and rapidly expanding their colonization. By the time the two sides met in the Mississippi River Valley, the war that swept the world began.

The brutal second global war lasted for a long time, the economic and political order of the whole world was dealt a great blow, and many countries even disappeared.

After the British finally declared defeat, the Ming Dynasty naturally accepted all the overseas colonies of the British. At that time, the powerful Ming Navy monopolized the interests of the whole of America, causing great dissatisfaction among the army. This was also the time when the United States was able to successfully become independent. An important reason for the establishment.

Although he was the victor, Da Ming also paid a huge price in this cruel and protracted war against the whole world. In order to maintain the huge military spending, it is impossible to gain domestic vested interests. Benefit. The Ming Dynasty, who collected a large number of taxes, frantically exploited the colonies during the war, and various means were close to direct plunder.

In this era, people who can risk their lives to go to sea to colonize and earn a living, where will there be any good people? Most of them are criminals, hooligans, poor people who are dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty and can't live and careerists.

These people who struggle in extreme environments care more about their own interests, and rarely care about the country and the nation. The brutal plundering of the Ming provoked fierce resistance in all colonies, including the New World. I didn't want to survive to venture out to sea, and now I'm here again?!

At the end of the Second Global War, the Ming Dynasty's national finances and economy were close to collapse, and a large number of casualties led to civil complaints. The rebellion plunged the whole country into chaos.

In this case, Da Ming unfortunately, he had a mediocre emperor again. In order to compensate for the astronomical military expenses and interest borrowed from the major family consortia during the long war. The emperor desperately squeezed the colonies abroad, tried to repay his debts at home, and at the same time attacked the family consortium.

In the midst of this brutal, life-and-death political struggle. Unwilling to be used as an ATM, the major family consortia joined forces to launch an attack on the rampant royal family. Both the civilian and the military were all involved, setting off a huge **.

The American colonies, which were treated like sheep by the Ming Dynasty, were constantly sheared, heavily taxed, and dumped a large number of industrial products, and the American colonies, which were completely poor for the people, also seized the opportunity. Taking advantage of the fact that a large number of American garrisons were transferred back to their homeland, a large-scale military campaign was launched. Pretending to be a rebel. Disorderly.

Rebel. The scale of the rebellion was enormous and quickly engulfed the entire American continent. Because the predatory oppression of the Ming Dynasty has made it impossible for all adventurers and careerists to live. It doesn't matter if they're yellow or white. In the face of the pressure of survival, rising up has become the only option.

At that time, not only the Americas, but most of the Ming colonies around the world were in large-scale chaos. If it weren't for the fact that the countries of Europa were completely crippled in the previous Second Global War, they might have taken advantage of the situation and completely changed the situation of the whole world.

When the entire American continent fell into these rebellions. When they were in the middle of the chaos, they quickly split. Many rebellions in the South. The disorderly organization is unique in terms of ethnicity, historical origin, etc. It was established as Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, the Central American Federation, Uruguay, Paraguay and other countries.

And the rebellion of the North. After brutal annexation and fighting, the rebels were divided into three major forces. Canada, the northernmost Anglo-French bilingual country, Mexico, made up of people of mixed Hispanic and Indian descent in the south, and the most powerful new nation in the entire Americas, the United States of America, founded by both yellow and white people.

In order to show his complete break with the Ming Dynasty. The Ming people, who had been brutally oppressed by the Ming Dynasty in the New World, chose the way that the ancient Chinese people entered the barbarians and wore their hair to the left. Advocate naming the name of the new nation the United States!

These rebels. The rebels are well aware, though they now seem to have complete control over the entire land. But that's because the Ming Dynasty is now in a period of weakness after the Great War, and it is still engaged in brutal internal friction. Once the Great Ming frees up his hand, the powerful power of the Empire that the sun never sets is far from being the result of these traitors. The rebels can resist it.

At that time, most of the population and economy of the entire Americas were concentrated in the United States, and they were also the first target of attack. In order to resist the Ming Dynasty's conquest, the Americans went crazy and tried to defend their victory.

A few years later, the chaotic and infighting Daming finally subsided. The alliance of the great families won a decisive victory, and they snatched the power of the entire country from the hands of the royal family. Since then, Daming has entered the era of capital where interests are paramount.

After resolving the internal contradictions, the powerful Ming army began to attack everywhere to wipe out all the rebellions that did not submit to local rule during the period of civil strife. Chaotic forces. Whether it is the indigenous chiefs of Nanyang, Australia, Indian states or Africa, they were all defeated under the Ming army. In these places, the golden dragon banner of the sun and moon was raised again.

Subsequently, the high-spirited Ming army entered the United States, which had only been in existence for a few years. And after several major battles, it defeated the American ** team, which was mainly composed of militia, and captured the largest rebellion. The capital named after Washington. A single fire reduced the city to ashes.
