Chapter 442: De Gaulle Takes the Stage
Less than a month after the Xia-class nuclear submarine was put into service, the first ship of the Britannica's Determination-class strategic missile nuclear submarine Resolve was also completed and joined the Royal Navy, this nuclear submarine is equipped with 16 Dawn Goddess submarine-launched ballistic missiles developed by Airbus Space Systems and produced by Siddeley. Equipped with a 300,000-ton yield nuclear warhead, the missile was not as long as the Great Wave, but it was enough to cover almost all of the Soviet Union's core cities as far as Ulyanovsk when launched from the eastern part of the North Sea, giving Britain a truly effective strategic nuclear deterrent capability.
At this time, the George Washington of the United States had not yet been completed, and the development of the Polaris submarine-launched ballistic missile had also not been completed, and as for the H-class strategic missile nuclear submarine of the Soviets, it had even just begun to be developed.
As for the Gauls, their Dreadnought nuclear submarine is also close to completion, but it is faced with the embarrassing situation of having a boat but no bombs, although the Aurora submarine-launched ballistic missile produced by Dassault has also been successfully tested three times in a row, but they have no nuclear warhead to put on this missile, and can only equip it with a shalindu gas warhead, and such a deterrent capability can only be said to be better than nothing.
In this context, the Gallic military's desire for a nuclear bomb also intensified.
However, although the Gallic parliament had formally approved the development of the atomic bomb two years earlier, the chaotic political situation made the plan almost always in the same stage, and at this time, the troubled Moeller government because of the Sakiet incident had no time to manage the military's voice, and they did not have the money to quickly buy tens of thousands of centrifuges. The attrition of more than 400,000 troops on the Algerian battlefield was already overwhelming Gaul.
"It's inexplicable. Although democracy is indeed a must. But democracy to the point of yours is an exaggeration. ”
Yang Feng said to Pierre speechlessly.
Moeller resigned, and under the criticism of domestic public opinion, a fiscal deficit of trillions of francs, and a foreign debt of three billion dollars, the United States finally resigned from the post of prime minister in a state of exhaustion under the pressure of the United Nations because of the Sakiette incident.
He was the longest-serving prime minister of the French Fourth Republic.
But after his resignation, the Gallic government was left without a prime minister, and various political forces fought in parliament for many days. In the end, no result was achieved, and it may be difficult to launch a new prime minister in the short term, and it is unprecedented for a country's political situation to be so chaotic.
Moreover, the political chaos in Gaul had even begun to spread beyond the Reichstag, and the masses mobilized by the Gallic Social Labour Party were engaged in daily activities to demand the withdrawal of Algerian troops from Algeria under the pretext of the Sakiette incident. Correspondingly, the Europeans and Blackfeet of Algeria were also marching on a daily basis to oppose the withdrawal of Gallic troops from Algeria. The partisans of the Liberation Front were desperately trying to create terrorist activities in various places, while the garrisons of Gaul continued to fight bloody. It's like a pot of porridge.
"In total, dozens of ****** people died, and it actually caused a permanent member of the UN Security Council to mess up to such a point. These dozens of ****** people can probably ask for credit when they see them Allah they can also ask for credit. ”
Yang Feng then said.
The so-called Sakiet incident was actually a group of guerrillas operating on the border between Algeria and ******, after being attacked by the Gallic army, fled to the nearby ****** of Sakiet, where they were going to rest and replenish their ammunition, and then went to Algeria to continue the attack, and then the enraged Gauls sent warplanes to bomb their hideout, killing 69 ****** people.
Although ****** had been a Gallic colony before, it had already been established by this time, and Gaul only retained a naval base in Bizerte, and during the Algerian Wars****** it was the main logistics base for the guerrillas. The countries that came to their aid sent arms to ******, and then handed them over to the Algerian guerrillas with the acquiescence of the ****** government, so that they could carry out bombings, assassinations, kidnappings and other terrorist activities in Algeria.
This is not only Egypt and other countries supported by the Soviet Union, but also Italy supported by the United States, otherwise the ****** people would not be so rampant.
Because of this, the Gallic army had been thinking about beating them for a long time, and they had never found a suitable opportunity, and the Sakiet incident was only an inevitable result.
After being beaten, ****** immediately dispatched troops to surround the Gallic garrison in the port of Bisset, and at the same time complained to the United Nations, and the United States, which also wanted to intervene for a long time, immediately manipulated the United Nations to open fire on Gaul, and with the tacit cooperation of the Soviets, this big thing quickly turned into a storm of public opinion against Gaul.
Obviously, the United States wants to mess up Gaul, destroy the most vulnerable link in the triangle of Ming, Britain and France, and also destroy one of the most important components of the European Community.
"What about de Gaulle, why didn't he stand up, did he see Gaul ruined like this?"
Yang Feng said.
Pierre himself was a Gaullist.
"Your Excellency, we are, after all, a democracy."
He said with a wry smile.
"The Führer, the new Prime Minister of Gaul is out, and President Coty has asked the leader of the People's Republican Party, Frymland, to form a government."
At this time, Hu Hao brought them the latest news.
"Didn't he always advocate the withdrawal of troops from Algeria?"
Yang Feng looked at Pierre suspiciously.
The latter nodded expressionlessly.
"!"
Yang Fuhrer said a word very unceremoniously.
Pierre, who knew exactly what the word meant, continued to be expressionless.
At this moment, far away in Algiers, Ye Feng was standing on the balcony of a small building not far from the Governor's Palace, looking at the scene in front of him with a teacup with interest, on the street under his feet, a large number of Gallic soldiers with rifles and armed civilians with weapons in their hands were pouring towards the Governor's Palace, and the military police and police guarding the Governor's Palace did not react, and hundreds of thousands of people easily flooded the Governor's Palace.
"General Leclerc played this scene really badly!"
The guy smiled and said to a Gallic beauty in pajamas next to him.
It is true that this scene of General Leclerc was badly acted, but the effect was the same.
After the Gallic parliament introduced a prime minister who advocated the withdrawal of troops from Algeria, the Gallic military immediately quit, and in Algiers, the capital of Algeria, 100,000 European immigrants and local pro-Gaul Hakis held a large-scale parade, and the march quickly turned into a riot, and the Bao rebels occupied the governor's palace without firing a shot, and elected the commander of the paratroopers stationed in Algeria, General Ma Su, as the leader, and established a national salvation committee.
Immediately afterwards, the Governor of Algeria, General Leclerc, sent a telegram to President Coty, claiming that in order to ensure peace and ensure that the country would not be divided, there must be a person who can preside over the overall situation of the country and come out to form a national salvation government that can reassure the Algerian people, and only in this way can the situation be saved, otherwise he will not dare to guarantee what the rebels will do.
As for who this person who can preside over the overall situation of the whole country, it is needless to say.
The Gallic government hesitated in the confusion.
The next day, General Ma Su made an open appeal over the radio, asking de Gaulle to come forward to form a government, just as Yang Feng rescued the Gallic army from Dien Bien Phu and liberated Gaul from Dien Bien Phu diplomatically.
In the afternoon of the same day, General Leclerc issued a direct shout of Long Live de Gaulle.
The next day, de Gaulle finally issued a brief statement to the press, claiming that he was ready to assume the power of the republic, followed by a public press conference in which he denied his support for the rebellion in Algiers, confessed that he had no intention of infringing on public freedoms, boasted of his past achievements in power, and reaffirmed his readiness to assume the power of the republic.
But the Gallic parliament is still hesitating, although all political forces understand that no one can play the country except De Gaulle, the problem is that at a glance of this play, the chief director must be De Gaulle, what if he comes to power in this way, what if he becomes a dubar?
The Gallic parliament hesitated, but the Gallic army could not wait, and soon a paratrooper unit set out from Algiers and landed on Corsica, and took control of the island without firing a single shot, and then disarmed the gendarmes sent by the Gallic government from Marseille, and even threatened to march on Gaul proper.
De Gaulle then reaffirmed his readiness to take the republic.
The Gallic parliament was still hesitant.
But at this time, the Gallic Social Labor Party could not sit still, and actually played like this, whether this is free and democratic, what is the difference between this and the usual way of those who come to power? As a result, under their organization, there were large-scale rebellions in various parts of Gaul against the Algerian rebellion, support for the Frymlan government, and support the withdrawal of troops from Algeria.
However, their actions had the opposite effect, and the capitalists, who had been hesitating, quickly made a final decision at this time, and it was clear that if de Gaulle was not allowed to come to power, then Gaul might be in danger of a large-scale civil war, after all, it would not be a big deal for De Gaulle to become a deliberator, he was still a capitalist in the end, but if a civil war led to the rapid rise of the Social Workers' Party, then Gaul would be different.
At this time, the leaders of their small circle, including Yang Feng, Aiden, Adenauer and others, also privately urged Gaul President Coti to pay attention to the current situation in Gaul and avoid Gaul being controlled by the Social Workers Party in any case, otherwise it would have a fatal impact on the security of the free world.
Under these circumstances, the Gallic parliament finally made a decision to form a cabinet by de Gaulle.
Another-stirring stick has finally appeared. (To be continued.) )
