Chapter 630: Ireland

Glasgow.

Although the whole of Britain is in a panic of war, but this northernmost Scottish city does not have much atmosphere of imminent war, the liberators of Budapest airport do bomb Britain every day according to the orders of Archduke Ferdinand, but because of the farthest distance limit, they have bombed Sheffield once, Scotland they must not reach, the only thing to worry about is the approaching Chinese fleet at sea, but compared to the major cities in England, it is clear that Glasgow is not worth the trouble of those carrier-based aircraft.

So when forty liberators flew to the city at midnight, the air defense sirens were not even sounded below, because it was impossible to see whether the ground had reached the target at high altitude, and these bombers simply dropped to a height of less than a thousand meters, after all, the navigation system has a certain error, although this error is harmless, but for the bombers it is necessary to drop the bomb more accurately.

The roar of the 160 1,300 hp piston engines of the Liberator fleet flying at an ultra-low altitude suddenly woke up this sleeping city, and those Scots who got up from their beds in their sleep, looked at the shadows in the night sky above their heads, which were like demons, and after the initial confusion, they exploded at once, and the whole Glasgow fell into a desperate panic, and before the bombs fell, the streets were already crowded with fleeing people, one by one in the cold winter night, they didn't bother to change their clothes, barefoot, Treading on the icy streets in his pajamas, screaming and running aimlessly, just trying to get away from his city.

And at this moment, the bomb bays of forty Liberators opened at the same time, one of them first broke away from the formation and descended to less than 500 meters, and then in the screams of the crowd below, thirty 50-kilogram solidified shells fell one after another, and in the explosion, thirty flames instantly rose into the sky and discharged a striking line of fire in the city of Glasgow, and then the second bombardment crossed over this line of fire in the same way, and a huge cross target of flames was immediately formed below. A raging fire lit up the entire city.

Then the real bombing began, one after another liberators in the sky, those bombardiers lying on the eyepieces of the bombing sights quickly found their targets by the light of the fire, and in a series of fine-tuning, the center of the eyepiece reticle was accurately pressed on the target, and then the bomber flight state was switched to autopilot, and the bombing sight took over the aircraft to fly to the target automatically, and when it reached the target, the bomb pylons were automatically unlocked, and with the sharp whistling sound, all the solidified qiyou bombs fell to various targets almost simultaneously. The whole city was instantly in flames, and the liberators who had completed the bomb dropping flew away in great style.

At about the same time, forty other Liberators also dumped sixty tons of napalm into Edinburgh.

And at this time, in the distant Atlantic, the Allied Combined Fleet, or the former maritime hegemon, the British Royal Navy, which created the empire on which the sun never sets, also came to an end with the sinking of the battleship New Zealand, as if it was destined in the dark. The last shell that sent the 25,000-ton battleship to the bottom of the sea came from the battleship España on the other side, and in this way the Spaniards avenged the Battle of the Armada and Trafalgar.

However, the Spaniards also lost one battleship, and the Brazilians lost one, compared to this decisive victory at sea, of course. Such losses were not worth mentioning, and the entire combined fleet of the Allies could be said to be almost completely annihilated, and only 42 warships, led by six heavy cruisers, escaped into the Mediterranean, and from then on not only had sea supremacy in the Atlantic. Even the supremacy of the Mediterranean Sea was completely lost. The Entente ships that had fled back to the Mediterranean had to deal with two Greek fast battleships, and the Greek navy, which had shamelessly watched the total destruction of the Austro-Hungarian fleet, had become the most powerful naval force in the Mediterranean, and all the former maritime powers now looked at them with fear. In this case, the Greeks did not mind using victory to redeem their reputation.

The British were very bitter and helpless about the outcome of the navy, in fact, they also understood that the outcome of this fleet could only be like this, even if they won this battle, when the main fleet of the Chinese navy came, their result would still be completely annihilated.

Fortunately, the total annihilation of the combined fleet also made the fleet of China, West and Pakistan and Afghanistan run out of ammunition, especially the two aircraft carriers of China, the ammunition reserves were almost exhausted, and in the three-day naval battle, the carrier-based aircraft on the two aircraft carriers in Dingzhen sank a total of six capital ships, and more than 40 other warships, at the cost of losing less than 60 carrier-based aircraft. However, there were almost no torpedoes, and the bombs were almost exhausted, and even the supply ships were exhausted, including the shells of their battle cruisers, so the fleet had to return to Puerto Rico and go back to replenish ammunition, and it was impossible to go to the British coast to bomb for the time being, which made the British breathe a sigh of relief.

But the liberators' bombing of Edinburgh and Glasgow was like a devil's claw on their necks, since even the farthest two cities were not spared, it also means that the entire British family can bomb wherever they want, not to mention the island of Great Britain, even Ireland is under the clutches of Emperor Yang, after thinking about this, the Irish immediately can't sit still.

"An uprising in Ireland?" Three days after the bombing of Glasgow ended, Emperor Yang got good news.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the armed men of the Irish duli suddenly revolted in Dublin last night, and now they have almost taken control of Dublin." Chief Yuan said happily: "And they have announced the establishment of the government of the Republic of Ireland, and announced that the Irish people will no longer fight for Britain, and have also proposed to us through the Swedish Consul General in Dublin that they are willing to join the Allies, invite our fleet to Ireland as our allies, and then use Ireland as a base to attack Britain." ”

"Hmph, ally, could it be that the ally of this emperor can be any cat or dog? Irish, do they have the qualifications? Also, do we admit their standing of the duliness? Emperor Yang said disdainfully.

Chamberlain Yuan was at a loss, and in his opinion, was it not the right time to accept the request of the Irish, and then drive the fleet over, using Ireland as a springboard, to transport two army groups there and land in Britain? How to listen to the meaning of the emperor's majesty that he is not prepared to care about the Irish.

"We don't care about the Irish, since the Beijing Declaration has said that Ireland is British, then they can only be British, since I have drawn an order for the world, then this order must be observed, no matter who it is, neither the Allies nor the Entente are allowed to undermine the established post-war order, no one, of course the Irish." Emperor Yang said very domineeringly.

"Your Majesty wants to let the British always carry this burden in the future?" Chief Yuan said uncertainly.

Emperor Yang shook his head incomprehensibly.

Yuan didn't dare to continue asking, he had automatically put Emperor Yang's decision into a conspiracy, in fact, he guessed well, Emperor Yang did not have any good intentions, if even Ireland is gone, then Britain after the war is too weak, which is not conducive to William's future growth, after the war, he will not only not weaken Britain, but will continue to support Britain, just like the United States supported Germany after the first World War in history, and then completely turned Britain into China's puppet in Europe.

At the insistence of the Chinese Government, the Confederate Council of the Confederacy in Beijing not only rejected Ireland's request to join the Allied Powers, but also refused to recognize Ireland's status on the grounds that the Beijing Declaration had already made Ireland's belonging.

Now both the Irish and the British were dumbfounded, but fortunately, the gossip was quickly released, the reason why the Chinese government did this was mainly in the United States back then, the Irish white slaves were the main force against China, so Emperor Yang did not like this nation very much, although this explanation was a bit inexplicable, but it made the British understand that Yang Feng would not care about Ireland, since this is the case, then they can rest assured, but now Britain really has little energy to care about these rebels and thieves, even if the Irish rebels occupy Dublin, They could only arm the British immigrants in Ireland first, and then clean them up when they had time to do after the war.

Another reason why Emperor Yang did not recognize Ireland was that he could bomb Dublin together, since Dublin was still a British city, and Britain was an enemy, then he had no problem bombing Dublin at all, not only Dublin, but many other major cities in Ireland were also within the radius of the Liberators' bombing, so just a few days after the Irish rebels occupied Dublin, eighty Liberator bombers dropped more than 100 tons of coagulation shells on the city, More than 3,000 Irish people were burned in one go, and the targets of the bombing were basically all government agencies in Dublin, which means that the vast majority of the dead were Irish rebels.

He is actually helping the British, and all parties have thoroughly understood Emperor Yang's hegemony when they are inexplicable, of course, no one cares about the life or death of the Irish, since Emperor Yang has ruled their fate, then a small country like this can only accept it, in a sense, Yang Feng can also be regarded as establishing his future position in this world, a judge of the international order.
