Chapter 1440: World Influence
A country that was opened by Britain and beaten all over the place, so that the Caucasian people have an unimaginable status in China, in the blink of an eye, has become a naval power, with an emperor-class battleship, and with the help of this battleship to attack the United States, inflicting a heavy blow on the United States, such a country must be taken seriously.
This has become gradually stronger, not only has a strong army capability, but also has a navy, this is a nightmare for Britain, originally, only for money, to force China, in their opinion, China may swallow this bitter fruit, and for the war, gradually carve up China to prepare, but did not expect, this time but like a hornet's nest, China declared war, at all costs, withdrew the diaspora, and after that, immediately retaliated against the United States, the United States seems to have obtained huge gains, But it was soon lost in the subsequent retaliation, just a direct loss of Wall Street, which was about to wipe out half of the gains, not to mention Panama, plus a series of losses such as ports, ships, and warships, the United States suffered a big loss.
Just when the British believed that China would make a big fight in the Pacific Ocean, because the purpose of the previous warships to attack Panama was too obvious, it was definitely to cut off the US passage to the Pacific Ocean, so that the US warships on the Atlantic side could not be quickly deployed to the Pacific Ocean, and in the current special environment, this was tantamount to directly causing a strategic impact.
But China was taken by surprise, when the emperor had not completely left the Americas, he started another offensive, attacking Australia, Lan Fang joined the allies in China, and it was already clear that he was in contact with China, and even the call for merging into China has never been reduced, Southeast Asia is very close to Australia, but in the minds of the world powers, they basically feel that the distance between Australia and China is very far, and now that the war has really broken out, they can understand, Australia and China are really too close, and Timor-Leste is only separated by the Timor Sea no more than 500 kilometers, which is almost a slight step forward and can be crossed.
Australia is a country of the British Commonwealth, but from the middle of the 20th century, the countries of the Commonwealth have gradually become independent and semi-independent, for this, the United Kingdom is also beyond the reach of the whip, although the United Kingdom is the hegemon of the seven seas, but in terms of the population of the United Kingdom, it is too small, an island country, a population of 40 million, in the current era of scientific and technological development and rapid industrialization, it is really not enough.
Although Australia is independent, but for the United Kingdom, it is still quite supportive, since the outbreak of the European War, Australia has not stopped supporting the United Kingdom, not only supporting a large number of funds and raw materials, at present, a total of nearly 600,000 soldiers have been sent to directly support the British to fight, but the British have never looked up to him, his soldiers are water, economic strength is not worth mentioning, the support for Britain is really not big, but in terms of heart, I have to say that Australia has a huge territory, itself, Britain for Australia, South Africa, Canada, these territories, never worry much, but to worry about India, India is too close to China, even on land, you can come over, especially when China takes Southeast Asia, there is no problem, from the Indochina Peninsula here to detour, direct sea crossing, can easily attack India, but I didn't expect that China did not choose India, but chose Australia.
Compared with Australia, India is not an order of magnitude in terms of capital or role, and the British suddenly do not understand what the Chinese think, and will abandon India, which is close at hand, and choose Australia.
Of course, Yang Yuanzhao will not choose India, a country second only to China in terms of population, in the eyes of the British, it is a good territory, and the pearl of the British Queen's crown is worthy of it, but for China, it is very clear what India is, a country with many national problems and many historical problems, it is enough to make them anxious, and even in later generations, the country that is second only to China in the whole world has created many strange processes, and many problems such as nationality and race cannot be solved in later generations.
In later generations, there seems to be a saying that temperate and cold countries, because of the problem of climatic conditions, the people are more industrious, at least not too lazy, because if they are too lazy, they will have no food, they must fight with heaven and earth, in order to be able to obtain enough food to feed themselves, but in the tropics, just sprinkle some seeds, and soon be able to get enough food for one person to eat, even if you don't go to farming, the abundant animal and plant resources in the tropics are enough for him to eat. The kind of habit that has been formed has caused these people to be lazy.
This point of view is not very scientific and seems to be a fallacy, but almost most of the people in tropical countries are lazy, needless to say in Southeast Asia, the characteristics of the native people, which cannot even be reversed by killing people, Brazil, tropical Africa, and India, seem to confirm this in some way.
For Yang Yuanzhao, occupying India, not only does not have any benefits, but will cause a lot of trouble, as far as his perception of India is concerned, that huge, like China, is an ancient country with history and civilization, there are not many resources, at least not world-renowned, there are no interests but a lot of trouble, how to compare with Australia, a country rich in resources and sparsely populated. Australia in Yang Yuanzhao's view, casual clean-up, can be occupied, whether it is a huge pasture, or a variety of resources, is a huge supplement to China, not like India, assimilation, differentiation, after a huge experience, it may not be able to take, really wasted decades later, the national liberation week, that is laborious, there are many hidden dangers.
In later generations, India can be said to be a dou that cannot be supported, even if it is supported by the two superpowers of the Soviet Union and the United States, but there is not much development, except for the software industry, because of the use of English as the official language, it has achieved tremendous development, and other industries lack something to show, such a country, although it is very close to China, but it is not worth investing energy.
In Yang Yuanzhao's view, perhaps after taking Australia, try to do something to India, take down his resource-rich places, or places with more developed agriculture, cut off a piece of meat, at least occupy a part of the territory in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, and the Ganges Plain, which not only has a rich grain producing area, but also obtains one or two ports in the Indian Ocean region, directly supporting and radiating the western part of China, as for India itself, then differentiate, according to real history, The best arrangement for India is to make up the 10 countries that have become one with India. However, these are all things that need to be considered in the future, and the key is to get Australia first.
The Entente countries thought that China would start in that place, but they did not expect that this would be the case, Britain was surprised, but the United States was happy, China set the target on Australia, is it safe to the islands in the Pacific, as long as it is stepped up to restore its strength, when a group of local ships are put into operation, it will definitely strengthen the defense of the Pacific Ocean, even if the Panama Canal is not repaired, take Cape Horn in South America, or simply build warships along the western coast and put them directly into the Pacific Ocean.
For the United States, being attacked by the emperor level directly makes the relationship between China and the United States, from the original hostility, to the position of mortal enemies, China and the United States will inevitably start a war in the Pacific Ocean, then it is essential to selectively strengthen the construction of military industry and warships in the western port area, the vast Pacific Ocean, compared to the Pacific Ocean, which is much larger than the Atlantic, the role that the army can play is very limited, and the key role is provided by the navy, although China has given the United States a huge slap in the face with 4 emperor-class, It has also caused huge losses to the United States, but in the hearts of Americans, even if there is an emperor level, it is impossible to have more, the navy is different from the army, it is not a slap on the brain, pull out the troops, it can be established, the navy needs a large number of technicians and professional officers, which takes a long time.
As long as sufficient personnel are dispatched, the Pacific Ocean will become the United States' galloping world, and the United States will inevitably be able to engrave its prestige on the world's largest ocean, and the United States does not know that although China has attacked Australia and placed the first wave of attacks on Australia, it does not mean that China will give up its attack on the Pacific Ocean, and it is only a matter of time before it is a matter of time, and it should be put down a little.
China's army is extremely large, and when it suppresses Russia in the Far East, it can fight against Australia, but the difference is that Australia's operations are handed over to the local army, and the huge Australia needs enough troops, the first batch is about 300,000, and it will gradually increase in the future, around 1.5 million to 2 million.
After all, 7 million square kilometers of land, even if there are not many strategic points, need enough troops to completely occupy them, but what about the Pacific Ocean? There are many islands, but there are not a few big ones, even if they are all occupied, the number of troops needed will be less than 1 million, in comparison with the two, the Australian strategy was handed over to the local army, commanded by Zhang Xiaohuai, to fight a war of annihilation, and the islands of the Pacific Ocean, it was handed over to Lanfang, and even the responsible personnel were also recommended from Lanfang itself, only the warships were composed of a part of the Southern Fleet and the Northern Fleet, and the combined fleet they formed would conquer the Pacific Ocean, in the future, Ninety percent of China's fleet will be joined by the fleet and become an important force in China's struggle with the United States for the Pacific.
