Historically, there have been only a few effective methods of dealing with guerrilla warfare, and one of the most effective is the concentration camp. Many years later, the country of Chitu produced a world-famous guerrilla warfare master, who had a classic metaphor about the relationship between the army and the people, that is, the relationship between fish and water. So the most thorough way to catch the fish is to drain the water directly. This is the idea of using concentration camps against the guerrillas. That is, to keep all the inhabitants of an area under control, so that they cannot come into contact with the guerrillas, which makes it difficult for the guerrillas to gain support from the civilian population.

This trick was first invented by the Spaniards in Cuba. It's a pity that it was invented a little later, the Cuban guerrillas were already strong enough to defeat the Spaniards in a campaign of war, and then Cuba had another big problem, that is, it was too far from heaven and too close to the United States. The Americans jumped out to stir up the situation, and the Spaniards' set was useless.

In the original history, although the Spaniards who invented it failed to defeat the Cuban guerrillas with this, some other countries later learned this trick and then successfully carried it forward. For example, in the Boer War, Britain relied on concentration camps to defeat the Boer guerrillas. Later, the Americans successfully used this trick in the Philippines to put down the Philippine rebel army. Later, after 918, Japan used this trick to carry out a large-scale collection of armor and tuntun in the northeast, that is, to gather the original many natural villages, enclose them with walls, and enter and exit need to pass through the security check, making it more and more difficult to get the support of the local people in the fight against the United Nations, and it became more and more difficult, and finally the Anti-United Nations had to withdraw to the Soviet Union.

Later, after 77, Little Japan fought in North and South China, and encountered the 18th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, whose guerrilla warfare skills had reached MAX. However, trapped by the lack of troops, many times can only rely on the Imperial Army, and the Imperial Association Army is really not a thing, in the words of the game, but it is said to be low defense, low sensitivity, low blood, and the explosion rate is super high. The Great Japanese Locust Army has the rule of destroying weapons when they are in a desperate situation, even if they are defeated with great effort, they generally can't burst out of any equipment, only the Imperial Army, which explodes equipment in a single hit. Then the guerrillas used the Imperial Army as a transport team. As a result, little Japan's attempt naturally failed in a mess.

Later, Ah Mei, you see that this trick was also played in South Vietnam, and it was also named Strategic Village. As a result, because of the need to use a large number of imperial troops, it was finally a mess.

But in any case, this method is indeed a very vicious method when dealing with guerrilla warfare. Moreover, in South Africa, because the number of Boers was limited, and the British army was large enough, there was no need for those cheating Imperial Allies to control the Boers through the Guò concentration camp.

"Alberto, are you worried that the British will not be able to put down the Boer rebellion in a short time?" Uncle Peter asked.

"Yes, I even think that's where the MacDonald consortium dares to play with us in the gold market." Alberto replied.

"But the pressure of public opinion to do so will be very high, especially since Britain has just used chemical weapons and other means, although the fortress has been solved, but such a practice will definitely be widely attacked. At this time, even the British government may find it difficult to immediately adopt the method you said. Peter said.

"yes, that's a problem. Our next step is probably to fight a propaganda war with McDonald. Damn, that's his forte again. ”

……

"Greystone, you came from a propaganda background. Whether or not we can make the British and the Jews suffer a lot this time depends on how well you preside over the propaganda. Do you have any thoughts on this? Scrooge asked.

"Dad, Uncle, I have done some research on this since the last family meeting mentioned the need to use public opinion to contain the British." Greystone said as he took out several thick pieces of information and distributed them to everyone.

"Dad, you once said that one of the most important things to do business is to find out who our friends are and who are our enemies. The same is true in the field of propaganda. Discontent with Britain is widespread in Europe today. But the British were cunning, and they always found a way to divide Europe. For example, for now, whether it is France, Germany or Russia, they all have contradictions with Britain. Needless to say, France has a much longer feud with Britain than the United States. The Germans now face the big problem of lack of market, but the whole world's market, except for the Americas, is almost entirely in the hands of the British. For Germany to develop, it must overthrow Britain. As for Russia, if he is still dreaming of a Third Rome, then Britain is the enemy. Therefore, in this public opinion offensive, they are likely to side with us.

But France now faces more pressure from Germany, and Alsace and Lorraine are not so easy to forget. In a sense, France's economic development in recent years has been far inferior to that of Germany, and one of the important reasons is the defeat in the Franco-Prussian War. Therefore, in order to confront Germany, the relationship between France and Britain was much closer. However, this does not change the fact that the French are uncomfortable looking at the British. France has long been the center of European culture, and there is a large number of influential literati, who, in general, are very humanistic, Madonna inclinations. As soon as we throw out a lot of shocking facts about gas warfare, these people will jump out and criticize Britain. These people have a great influence in France, and although their attitude cannot influence the attitude of the government, it is an attitude that can definitely influence public opinion in France and even in Europe. As for Germany, it is not even necessary to think that they are our allies. In fact, I am more concerned about the relevant publicity in the UK. ”

"Propaganda in the UK? It's an interesting idea. Scrooge nodded and said, "What do you think?" ”

"Dad, because there are a lot of people like this in the UK. In fact, any country will have such a good person with high morals, for example, if we were now using poison gas in the Philippines, and then Mr. Mark Twain knew about it, who do you say he would stand on and speak? He will definitely be on the side of humanity and justice. So I'm going to get in touch with these people, give them the truth, and then create pressure on public opinion in the UK. ”

"Very good idea." Catherine nodded, "But you may have overlooked one point, and that is the opposition party in the United Kingdom. Although they will not be too disobedient on fundamental matters related to national interests, the British generally believe that the overall situation has been decided, and at this time, they should attack the ruling party, lest they rely on this victory to further consolidate their position, so at this time, the British opposition party will definitely be willing to jump out and bite the ruling party. ”

"Aunt Catherine." Greystone smiled and replied, "We still have a plan for that. We're going to have some liberal figures in Britain stir up the debate first, and then let the Liberals follow suit. Of course, Aunt Catherine needs to help her......"

Catherine's family is now much stronger than before, thanks to MacDonald's financial resources. Greystone, on the other hand, wanted them to get in touch with the British Liberal Party. The Liberal Party was also once a major political party in England, formerly known as the Whig Party, founded in 1679. For many years, the Conservative Party, which originated from the Whigs, took turns in power. But in 1886, because of the Irish affair, the Liberal Party split, and some members of the party went to the Conservative Party. Since then, the Liberal Party has been in the limelight, both in government and in Parliament, and has been suppressed by the Conservative Party. So they will definitely not let go of such an opportunity. After all, now that Britain has won, no matter how much trouble they make, it will not be a drag on the country, and the British Empire can rule the world, not only by the army, but also by the British Empire's amazing diplomatic means. And if you want to play diplomacy well, you still need the necessary face. The great countries in human history are basically countries that want to make women's watches and set up archways. If you just want to set up a memorial arch, it's stupid, and if it's just a women's watch, it's two. Forced, whether it's a stupid country or two. Forcing the country, in this world full of malice, is absolutely difficult to survive. And now, in Britain, someone must also stand up and criticize the Conservative Party that made a women's watch, and hold on to the crumbling archway of civilized people.

"Yes, after such a round, it is estimated that the British will at least not be able to come up with any angry tricks in South Africa immediately." Carroll concluded.

……

It was also at this time that the German General Staff was also seriously studying the situation of the Boer War. There is so much to study in this war. The Boers' tactics of using strong support points to pin down the enemy, using highly mobile troops to attack the enemy's flanks and logistics, the British relying on the logistics of the railroad and, finally, their amazing chemical tactics are worthy of careful study. On the whole, the Germans were very happy after studying the present situation in the Boer War, because with this study the Germans thought that they could at least be sure of the following:

First, the German army, especially the German Army, is on the right path. Compared to the British Army, the German Army had a better firepower configuration. The German Army had already equipped its heavy artillery with towing vehicles, which made the caliber of the German divisional artillery significantly larger than that of the British. Moreover, the Germans were also heavily armed with large-caliber train guns. And this war also proved the irreplaceable role of large-caliber artillery in the face of strong fortifications.

The second point is that chemical weapons are extremely powerful, and compared to the use of light. The British army of gas, the chemical weapons of the Germans were much higher in terms of level. At the very least, they now have new chemical weapons that gas masks alone can't protect against. R1058
