According to the CIA's intelligence, the largest gold smuggling last year was as high as 100 tons, and the destination was very simple, the vault of the Bank of England, handled by the Shell Oil Company, the gold was directly loaded onto merchant ships transporting liquefied petroleum gas to Yingtian Port, and then transported to Brunei, and then loaded onto British cruisers there.

In return for acquiescing to all this, the Ming Empire Petroleum acquired an oil exploration area in the waters near Trusil Oman, which originally belonged to Shell, and of course the British government paid for it.

All this is known to the people of the United States.

But I couldn't intervene.

Fortunately, they can still monitor and know, but once Daming and Borneo merge, then they can't even monitor, how big is Ambuna Island, and how big is the whole Borneo? Monitoring thousands of kilometers of coastline is too exaggerated, not to mention that North Borneo is still British, so it is even more impossible to monitor.

Besides, even if you know, what can you do?

The Mi people can neither stop it in advance nor intercept it halfway, either way it will provoke two allies at the same time, at most hintly, but that is also meaningless.

Therefore, the easiest way is to directly ask Yang Feng to stop the free exchange of gold.

"It can't be!"

Yang Feng answered him very frankly and dryly.

Of course, this is impossible, he pointed to this trick to hollow out the cornerstone of the dollar in the shortest possible time, how could it be stopped, but those nonsense such as the Ming Empire's industry has not yet developed, and it is necessary to use gold to buy arms from the outside to maintain the war. Everyone knows that now Daming does not buy arms from outside at all. They even bought fighter jets. What other arms do you need to buy?

"This is related to the integrity of the Ming Imperial Bank or myself, you also know the current situation, Xinhua is completely down to Stalin, plus Tianzhu, who is already an ally of Starlin, and Honsawady, who is maintaining a close relationship with Xinhua, Annan and Ruan Aiguo, who is making a comeback, almost all of the northern land in Southeast Asia has fallen. At times like these. I could not have done such a thing at the risk of affecting my relations with Britain and Gaul, for they were the only ones who could help me directly in Southeast Asia. ”

Yang Feng said.

The meaning of this is very simple, they are my allies in Southeast Asia, and you don't have an army here, if you really want Stalin to develop south with the help of Xinhua, who will fight side by side with me? Could it be you? You're being beaten by them in Goryeo right now, okay?

If the translation is more direct, it means that you Mi people fight like bears, how can I treat you as the boss in the future? I'm not going to take you as the boss, so why listen to you?

Johnson was speechless.

Although it's normal for this guy to make wallgrass, it shakes so fast. It's a bit too shameless.

"Your Excellency, the current tactical defeat in Goryeo is only temporary. The Xinhua Army only achieved some victories with the help of the effect of the surprise attack, and it is believed that the coalition forces will soon complete the adjustment and then turn the tide of the battle again......"

Johnson hasn't finished saying this yet! Hu Hao hurriedly walked to Yang Feng's side, and then said with a solemn face: "Führer, news has just come from the battlefield in Goryeo that the 1st Marine Division of the US Army is surrounded in the area of Changjin Lake, and the current situation is extremely dangerous. ”

"Huh?"

Johnson was stupid.

Although the equipment level of the Volunteer Army is not what it used to be, the 42nd Army was finally ordered to withdraw from the Huangcaoling area after the 1st Marine Division was all pressed, and in the final analysis, they were only a light infantry, but in the fierce battle that lasted for 12 days, it also caused nearly 3,000 casualties to the 1st Marine Division.

After opening the Huangcaoling, the 1st Marine Division continued to move north, with the goal of going north straight into the Jiangjie, which was the rear of the 38th Army of the Volunteers fighting on the Western Front, and once the Jiangjie was captured, it would be possible to open up the two fronts in the east and west, and if it went south, it could threaten the Volunteers fighting on the Western Front, and if it went north, it could directly threaten the territory of Xinhua.

But he didn't know that at the same time as the 42nd Army retreated, the elite Ninth Corps of the Xinhua Army had already arrived in the theater, and when the 1st Marine Division continued to move north and reached the Changjin Lake area, the 9th Corps used their most classic interspersed outflanking tactics to quickly complete the encirclement of the 1st Marine Division, and the 1st Marine Division, which was already less than 20,000 at this time, suddenly fell into the encirclement of 150,000 people from the three armies of the Volunteer Army.

The world was in an uproar.

"Could it be that after a regiment is wiped out, this time a division will be wiped out?"

Chen Hu said blankly at the map.

Indeed, now everyone was at a loss, even Manstein, who had retired as an adviser but did not return home because of the war, muttered to himself on the map: "This, this battle was fought, why did MacArthur make such a childish mistake?" ”

Now Lao Mai has been completely pulled down from the altar, especially the annihilation of the Eighth Cavalry Regiment, which has dealt an extremely serious blow to his image. The domestic media in the United States also scolded him constantly, especially this kind of tactic that the brain-dead thing and the two roads are not connected to each other, but they have to go hand in hand, it is simply a childish move that even the junior students of the military academy can't do, especially the more brain-dead Yuanshan landing, as far as the time delayed by the Tenth Army in clearing mines outside Yuanshan, they arrived early by land.

"Leave them alone, love."

Yang Feng said gloatingly.

However, I am afraid that the annihilation of the 1st Marine Division is not enough, even if the Volunteer Army is not what it used to be, the attack capability cannot reach this level, and the 8th Cavalry Regiment was completely annihilated, and they also relied on the effect of ambushes, plus the whole army was invested in the later stage, and it took ten times the strength to achieve this victory.

However, the 1st Marine Division is also the number one elite of nearly 20,000 US troops, not to mention that there is the 3rd US Division in the back, the 7th Division of the US Army on the left flank, and the 1st Army Corps in South Goryeo, and the 150,000 people of the Ninth Corps must not only block the enemy troops in the east and south, but also eat the 1st Marine Division, this task is still too arduous, and Changjin Lake to Hamxing Port is only 100 kilometers away, as long as it reaches the coast, it is easy to withdraw with the protection of naval guns at sea.

Of course, this really has nothing to do with them, and the 1st Marine Division will have to shed its skin if it does not die, this is certain, but the difference between the total annihilation of the whole army and the loss of most of it.

At this time, what Yuan Yuan Yang was concerned about was another battle, and Comrade Li had killed all sides so much, of course he couldn't help but show it here.

The eastern city of Madras, Tianzhu.

The terrible air defense siren sounded suddenly, after the loss of Kolkata, the streets of the largest city in the east, countless people raised their heads in amazement, it was obvious that they had not experienced war for a long time, and they were not very accustomed to this sound, after all, the last time it was attacked here was during the First World War, in the subcontinental war, because of the distance, the Ming army did not bomb here.

While the streets were in chaos, the pilots of the nearby air base were cursing and rushing towards their fighters.

It is not only the largest city in the East, but also the most important naval base in the East, the home port of the Eastern Fleet, which houses not only a fleet including destroyers, but also a fighter squadron to protect the fleet.

To add a note, the name here on modern maps is Chennai.

However, at this time, the MiG-15 of the Tianzhu Air Force had been completely lost, and the only dozens of them were all in the Northern Theater, and Comrade Stalin, who was busy dealing with the Goryeo battlefield, had no more MiG-15s to sell to Nehru for the time being, after all, the production capacity of the Soviet aircraft factory was not unlimited.

So stationed here is a fighter squadron, a total of twenty-four pull-11 fighters.

Fortunately, it was the carrier-based aircraft that took off from the Ming aircraft carrier, so those Tianzhu pilots were not very afraid, after all, although their planes were propellers, they were the best propellers, but when the Tianzhu fighter group encountered their opponents in the sky fifty kilometers away from the coast, everyone was stupid.

"Damn, how a jet!"

"It's a saber, my God, it's a saber!"

……

The commander of the rear base, standing in the control tower in grief, listened to the screams of horror and despair of the pilots coming from the radio.

It's not that they don't work hard, it's really that the enemy is too cunning, what about the sea rage that says good, isn't their carrier-based aircraft sea rage? Didn't they equip the first batch of Sea Sabers at least two months later because of production?

Well, you believed what they said? Do you understand strategic deception?

Of course, it doesn't make sense to understand it or not, in short, twenty-four unlucky La-11 crashed headlong into thirty-six Sea Sabres, or the official name of chasing the wind, as for the outcome of this air battle, there will be no suspense, twenty-four La-11 were all shot down in less than fifteen minutes, and then together with the sea fury that took off from the aircraft carrier Dreadful, seventy-two Ming fighters flew into the city, and then began to drop bombs on the factory area.

The city is also the largest industrial area in the east of Tianzhu, especially rare is the train factory, in addition to the most important cotton spinning center, the cotton cloth produced here, has always been an important competitor of Daming chemical fiber fabrics, in order to seize market share, even had to set the price lower than the cotton cloth, which is simply outrageous.

So instead of bombing the naval base, these planes threw all the bombs and incendiary bombs they were carrying into the industrial area, and the hapless Tianzhu workers, in the light of the explosion, scattered in all directions in terror, unbeknownst to them, this was only the beginning of their nightmare, because in the distant sea, two battleships were sailing here at full speed.
