Australian Storm 1876 - Chapter 1051
Chapter 1051 is simply unbearable (additional 11th bullet for the leader)
A friend in Shanxian became aware of the tyranny of the dictatorial emperor of the Ocean Empire. The whole country was kidnapped and could not get off the North American chariot. He had to act as a thug in front of the charge, madly biting the United States for the Ocean Empire.
This is a conspiracy, who made the people of Fusang poor and short-minded?
Only one oil field in southern New Mexico can produce 23 million barrels of oil per year, which can allow Fusang to take off the hat of an oil-poor country in one fell swoop and gain huge economic benefits from it.
23 million barrels of crude oil is not worth much, the value is only about 3 million gold yang, but the value of refining and development will increase by 70 to 80 times. It is a big industry with an annual output value of 200 million gold yang.
What is the concept of 200 million Jinyang?
This is almost 30% of the national economic output of the entire Fusang country at this stage. Isn’t it crazy that only one southern oil field has reached such a high output value?
So, what exactly can a barrel of crude oil do?
can produce enough gasoline for a heavy-duty car to travel 450 kilometers.
can produce enough diesel for a large truck to travel close to 65 kilometers.
can produce about 1.8kg of charcoal briquettes;
produces enough propane to fill 12 small tanks (14.1 oz) for home, camping and office use;
Able to make 0.95 liters of asphalt for roof or street repairs.
Can make about 0.95 liters of motor oil.
Can make 170 birthday candles or 27 crayons of wax.
The use of crude oil is not limited to the above-mentioned uses, the petrochemical industry is a very broad industry, after producing all the above products, the remaining residues can also be used to produce the following commodities:
39 polyester shirts.
750 pocket combs.
540 toothbrushes.
65 plastic dustpans.
23 hula hoops.
65 plastic drinking cups.
195 cups measuring cups.
135 4″ balls.
One barrel of oil can extract so many things. 23 million barrels of oil is a big industry, which can create 1.2 million jobs and become a pillar industry in a society with millions of people.
Only take lubricating oil as an example;
Crude oil can produce dozens of lubricating oils, butter, and oil for industrial machine tools. While replacing imports, it can also be exported in large quantities for valuable funds.
The heavy oil remaining after refining gasoline and diesel is the main fuel for naval ships and large ocean-going ships. This dark and very viscous oil has a high combustion ratio, coupled with low price and high quality, and is the only fuel for large ships. choice.
In order to build a Fuso country that spans the seas and seas, an adequate supply of heavy oil and lubricating oil is essential. Previously, it completely relied on imports, which means it is self-evident for a Fuso country that is eager to expand.
And these precious resources, neither North Korea nor Manchuria and Mongolia can provide, only North America can.
The North American colonies based on the Arizona Republic, as long as they have a large petrochemical industry, will have stable work and life opportunities for millions of Japanese immigrants. The extended service industry and agriculture and animal husbandry will constitute the entire dynamic. social foundation.
After gaining a firm foothold, Fusang can vigorously develop local rich copper and coal resources, and even trade iron ore with the Ocean Empire, taking off the hat of resource-poor in one fell swoop.
The profound meaning of makes Fusang unable to stop.
After seeing off Zhengyi in the temple, You Peng from Shanxian came to sit down in the study, picked up a writing brush and filled it with ink. After thinking for a while, the pen walked the dragon and snake and wrote;
His Majesty the Holy Emperor of the Ocean Empire sees you;
Yu Fusang country Laoxiushan County has a friend who bows his head again, and his inner admiration is like a surging river, and it can’t be controlled…
If Okuma Shigetrust was here, he would be surprised that he couldn’t believe his eyes. Youpeng in Shanxian County actually revealed the strategic decision and the whole future of Fusang, which was going to die against the Americans, without any concealment.
Is Lord Shanxian a spy?
Obviously, this is impossible. At the level of the senior Youpeng in Shanxian County, international issues have been thoroughly understood.
He knew that in the next few decades, Fusang Kingdom would have to follow the lead of the Ocean Empire, and for a long period of time when the naval power could not compete with the Ocean Empire, and the national strength could not keep pace with each other, it would always be a man with its tail between its tails.
The Pacific regional hegemony that does not challenge the Ocean Empire will be implemented as a future national policy.
And the Political Intelligence Bureau has planted secrets everywhere in Fusang. Every year, tens of thousands of Fusang students travel across the ocean to study in Australia. It involves all aspects of politics, economy, culture and art. How much sand is mixed in it?
In addition to the terrible political intelligence bureau, I am afraid that no other institution in the world can know.
A friend in Shanxian County knows his own family affairs. Many senior officers above the lieutenant general level of the army and navy are inextricably linked with the Ocean Empire. Like a sieve, they cannot keep any secrets.
Instead of this, it is better to come forward in person and be a bachelor.
Throughout the two terms of Fusang’s military and political affairs, as well as the previous prime ministers, they are not qualified to contact Li Fushou, the emperor of the Ocean Empire, in private.
It is impossible to conceal such a major event as a national policy, so he simply behaves as a bachelor, and has won the favor of the emperor of the Ocean Empire.
It is based on this consideration that there is a private communication channel with the highest level of confidentiality today.
No one knows how long the private letter has been going on. A friend from Shanxian County used a brush to transcribe the letter neatly, and wrote a thick stack of letter paper.
E.g;
1; I know of the letter, and we are very relieved. The support policy will not change, please do not disturb.
Two; you can clearly understand the international trend and follow the trend, which is very good.
3; For the financial difficulties, you can contact the Royal Queensland Bank to express your urgent needs temporarily.
4; Mainland policy should be cautious, do everything!
5; Whether to participate in the European war or not, you can do what you can.
For these replies, there are Pengdu in Shanxian County who have repeatedly tasted the precious and important places, often able to gain something, and feel that the maze is suddenly enlightened. After admiring them, they put them in a sandalwood box and locked them for preservation, and never showed them to a second person. Look.
Even a close confidant like Marshal Dashanyan and Prime Minister Katsura was never seen.
In the world’s major powers, it is a common practice for leaders to communicate policy stances out of personal friendship and communication, and to coordinate some things that are not on the table, and will not involve traitors or spies.
French Prime Minister Georges Clemenceau privately wrote two secret letters to friends in Shanxian County, urging Fusang to participate in the European war, and even promised the interests of the Indo-China Peninsula, but the lion asked Fusang to pay at least 1 million Soldier.
This request, Shanxian Youpeng politely declined.
As Li Fushou, the emperor of the Ocean Empire, whom he admired very much, said; do what you can.
is really true; every word is a thousand words, and the words of gold and jade.
The Fuso Kingdom is using troops on a large scale in North America. Where can 1 million soldiers be able to fight in Europe?
London, 7 Downing Street
The Battle of the Somme, which was watched by the world, was still advancing with difficulty. The British and French allied forces continued to attack with little success. At the cost of 20,000 to 30,000 casualties per day, the average advance of the front was only 100 yards.
If this continues, the British Expeditionary Force will be dead and unable to fully occupy the Somme position.
Prime Minister Herbert Asquith’s face was somber that he was about to drip. He had just lost his temper and wiped out Churchill, the Minister of the Admiralty, and was transferred to the Minister of No Matter.
The performance of the Royal Navy in the Battle of Jutland was a big disappointment. After the post-war investigation report came out, Churchill took the blame for the dead and ushered in a dark moment in his political career.
However, Prime Minister Herbert Asquith was even more dissatisfied with Lord Kitchener, Secretary of the War Department, whose heart bleeds over the losses of the British Expeditionary Force on the Western Front.
Many British Expeditionary Forces were made up of volunteers, the so-called community battalions. Relatives, friends, fathers and sons of the entire community served in one battalion, and ended up on the front line of the Battle of the Somme. The Mu River has become a hell, and dozens of community camps have died.
This also includes the traditional constituency of Prime Minister Herbert Asquith, seven communities in Rotherham County, near Sheffield in central England, two of which have died and three battalions are left. There are more than 100 people, half of them are still blind after being attacked by poison gas. Many of them are the children of Prime Minister Herbert Asquith’s former neighbors and close friends.
The loss was too great to bear.
“This almost suicidal attack has to be stopped, I can’t bury the entire young generation of Britain in the Somme Hell, Fake, where thousands of British lads die every day, it’s a total Disaster, I will not allow it to continue.” Prime Minister Herbert Asquith waved his arms nervously in the air, roaring loudly to Lord Kitchener, Secretary of the War; “Look at your **** battle plan. , the blood of the young men of England and France will be drained, and you will only keep asking me for reinforcements, where is the victory I long for?”
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, this is an extremely cruel war. As soldiers, we are also suffering from hell. The heroic British Expeditionary Force is making progress, and we have occupied the 2nd road held by the German 2nd Army. The line of defense, at this time, can’t be relaxed, otherwise the previous achievements will be lost!”
“Then how much sacrifice do we have to make to win the final victory? 300,000 or 400,000?”
“Sorry, Your Excellency Prime Minister, I can’t give you an exact number. It is certain that you must pay a heavy price far beyond imagination to defeat the Germans.”
“I don’t want to listen to this **** anymore, stop the offensive for me, order the troops to stay on the German line and hold on, we need new forces, send more troops from India and other colonies, and replace our lads.”
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, the combat effectiveness of these colonial troops is worrying, and they cannot put strong pressure on the Germans. If we want to win the victory, we have to do it ourselves.”
“No, in the current extremely difficult situation, there is so much bad news that it is numb, I can tell you a rare good news, the attitude of the dictatorial monarch in Australia seems to have loosened up, the foreign affairs department is working hard, we may soon There will be reinforcements.”
“Oh, that’s great, but there’s a military emergency on the Somme front, and we might not be able to wait that long.”
“No, do as I say, send the colonial army to resist for a while, whether it’s Canada, New Zealand, or India, as long as it’s not the native army, I’m so fed up with it all, now all you have to do is maintain the som The status quo of the river defense line, waiting for the arrival of our friends.”
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, this may take a few months…”
“Shut up and wait for me.”
“Oh… well, as you wish, I will take out the colonial army as soon as possible and fill it into the Somme battlefield, trying to maintain the current front.”
“Go, go, I don’t care how many colonial troops you mobilize, replace the British lads for me.”
“As ordered, Prime Minister.”
