Wang Guorui knows that at present, he really has to admit that he has no good way to deal with this guy in the United States. He knew that it was impossible to completely destroy the United States, because if he wanted to destroy the United States, although the American Army was vulnerable, it would be impossible to destroy the United States without hundreds of thousands of troops! Although hundreds of thousands of troops can be drawn out, the biggest difficulty is logistics supply. The logistical supply routes across the Pacific are enough to drive people crazy just to think about. Not to mention now, even the United States in later generations will not dare to easily play this kind of expedition of hundreds of thousands of troops. Hundreds of thousands of troops across the Pacific Ocean could not be supplied by Wang Guorui. The attrition of such a long distance may be more than the number of supplies that a million army normally has.

Even once you land on the west coast of the United States, then you won't be able to get enough resources along the way to the east. You must know that the western United States has always been desolate, even in the 21st century, the western United States is mostly desolate, and there is not much oil and water to be fished. Although Alaska has many resources, Alaska's resource development is currently not in a position to do so. Alaska's resource benefits are not visible in the short term, but more importantly, in the future, the future is of greater strategic significance. Therefore, there is no need to think about developing resources, let alone as material supplies.

Therefore, it is a very stupid thing to send a large army to find bad luck in the United States. With such a long supply line, if it is an attack aimed at occupying territory, it will not be worth the loss. However, the geographical environment of the American is too good, and he is the same as China's environment in East Asia, rich in resources, without competitors, and completely looks like a boss. With the appearance of such a boss, he can completely dominate one side and become a strong country. Wait for Europe to fight there and die. And the Americans can sit firmly in the development of Diaoyutai here. In the end, it can be developed, and then step by step it becomes the hegemon. However, European countries are fighting back and forth there, and in the end, they will inevitably consume their strength, and at the worst they will slow down their development.

The Americans, presumably, built up their industrial power in this way, with almost no devastation of war. So of course, Wang Guorui can't let them live too comfortably, and he hopes to deliberately find the bad luck of the Americans. Guarantee your status.

"You see, of these three island chains, the first island chain is mainly in Hawaii in the United States, and we will help the Kingdom of Hawaii to restore the Kingdom of Hawaii on the pretext of supporting the Kingdom of Hawaii, and then become the core of the first island chain. The first island chain will be our first strategic line of defense to contain the United States moving toward their West, that is, toward the Pacific. The Americans' current plan is to develop westward, that is, to the Pacific region, so that they have always been eyeing our South Seas region. If we hadn't gone to war with the Spaniards a few years ago, they would have looked for an excuse to go to war with the Spaniards. And then seize the Philippines. It's a pity that we cut off our beards, so they hate us so much, and naturally there is the last time when an army composed of more than 100,000 American troops attacked together with the coalition forces of other countries. ”

"And if we have a certain naval force in the first island chain and firmly control those islands, then we can effectively become an important means of deterring the United States from expanding into the Pacific region. As long as we contain them, then they will definitely be locked down in the Americas and will not be able to develop effectively! ”

Wang Guorui's plan for the three island chains is actually similar to the U.S. plan to contain China. It's just that the order of the island chain is reversed. Hawaii is the core of China's first island chain and can effectively contain the United States. And before Wang Guorui crossed. China has not been able to break out of the first island chain! And the second island chain is to prevent in case the Americans rush out of the first island chain next, and then defend the second island chain to ensure the security of China's territory and various resources in the South China Sea region. Both the Philippines and Indonesia are under the second island chain, so the second island chain is very important.

As for the third island chain, it is to ensure the security of China's mainland. Although Wang Guorui believes that it will be difficult for the Americans to break out of the first island chain in the future, Wang Guorui does not mind making more strategic plans. Those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a time. Anything can happen. Maybe the situation won't change in the next few decades, but what about another 100 years, 200 years? No one can guarantee what will happen in two hundred years, and even Wang Guorui does not dare to guarantee how far technology will develop in the next two hundred years. Maybe. By then, humanity has collectively begun to develop into outer space. Once the space capability is widespread, then this so-called island chain will be ridiculous. The distance of space is actually relative, and the era of backward transportation is naturally "far", once the transportation is advanced, then I am afraid it is also "near".

Therefore, it is impossible for Wang Guorui to predict the development of the world situation in the next 100 years or 200 years, and what he can do is that he can be as prepared as possible to avoid more accidents. Therefore, even if the first island chain is established, it is necessary to arrange the second island chain and the third island chain, and if you do not leave any behind, you are looking for your own death. Any plan is left behind, even if the United States has become the world hegemon after World War II, but isn't it also a plan to leave three island chains? That's because the Americans are also very aware that they have to stay behind just in case. The United States can be a strong country forever, and even Wang Guorui does not believe that China can be strong forever.

Wang Guorui's pursuit is not that China will always be strong, but that it will never be "destroyed". The ancestors said well, born in sorrow and dying in peace, if a person, a country, and a civilization have no enemies at all, then in the end they will only decay by themselves. Wang Guorui has never thought of completely unifying the earth, if Wang Guorui completely unifies the earth, then in the end China and even the entire human race will follow the decay, which is not conducive to human progress. Only competition can keep a country, a nation, and a civilization prosperous. Competition and even war, although it may destroy civilization, is also to promote the progress of civilization from a certain point of view, especially in terms of science and technology. If there had been no atomic bomb, would there have been atomic energy later? If there is no atomic energy, will there be more clean energy in the future? So everything is divided into two, and it can't be absolutely good or absolutely bad. Due to geographical reasons, China has no powerful countries nearby, and this has a strong side and a negative side.

Hundreds of years ago, the Manchu Qing Dynasty declined, although Wang Guorui believed that this was due to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in fact, this cause and effect had been planted to a certain extent in the past, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty only greatly aggravated this consequence. There are no strong countries around, and China's biggest enemy is itself. Each time it is a power competition within oneself, and the last reincarnation. Without a strong foreign enemy, it will inevitably decay in the end. 、

Wang Guorui left enough "enemies" behind, and even if there were no enemies, he had to find a way to create an enemy. Only when there is sufficient "external pressure" will the internal contradictions be suppressed by external pressure. If there is no external pressure, then in the end, the internal people will start to think about seizing power and then making a revolution. Without the pressure of external enemies, China's internal power struggle will reach its extreme. The reason why the country is harmonious now, in addition to Wang Guorui's military power, is because the international environment is not optimistic, so as long as it is smart, people will not have their brains in the water at this time.

But once there is no enemy, it will be China that will suffer in the end, and then the infighting will be enough to bury China. And in the process of infighting, Wang Guorui, the royal family, suffered the most. Once there is a power struggle within the country that is too serious, the first of their courtiers to kick out is the royal family. Therefore, once there is no enemy outside, it will not be beneficial to the country and the nation, and it will not be much good for Wang Guorui's royal family. Because the internal power struggle can easily affect the royal family, the royal family may be the first to be kicked out by everyone at that time.

"So I can only restrain the United States, but I can't completely destroy the United States. Once the United States is completely destroyed, it will also be the beginning of our gradual decay. What I can do is to try my best to ensure that China does not perish, and whether it can be strong forever in the future depends on the ability of future generations. That's what I can do for future generations, and if they don't fight in the future, then I'm helpless. Three island chains, to contain the United States, so as to ensure that the United States cannot develop to the west. They can only develop towards Europe, and they will definitely end up in the struggle of Europe. At that time, it was impossible for them to stay out of it. All I could do was let the wind and waves rise, and then just maintain the balance, according to the British and Americans at the time. Wang Guorui thought.

"Now, you're going to make a plan according to this plan! The Americans are geographically similar to ours, so we can't let them be too comfortable. We have to find a way to contain them, and then force them to compete with the great powers of Europe. In Asia, our three island chains have included all of Southeast Asia, so that within these three island chains, we must be the only strong country in China. Other countries are countries that provide us with resources, countries that we control economically and militarily, and are our vassals. Wang Guorui said.

Qiu Baoren followed Wang Guorui's plan, and then returned to the General Staff Headquarters to formulate the battle plan, and then formulated the entire strategic island chain plan and future supporting plans. (To be continued.) )
