Rebirth of South America as King - Chapter 466
The strategic balance of South America has been broken, and the American economic system that the British have painstakingly managed is also facing the risk of disintegration and collapse under the pressure of the Americans.
The British are in a hurry, otherwise, Hermes, the British minister in Han Dynasty who has always paid attention to the face of the empire and pays attention to the hegemony, will not rush to the headquarters building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China at 11 o’clock in the evening. .
“Your Excellency, in accordance with your instructions, has arranged for the British Minister Mr. Hermes to wait in the parlor.”
“Okay, I know.”
Tang Jingsong, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, nodded and said, “I told the staff to prepare some simple tea to send to the past. We cannot let the British think that we do not know how to treat guests.”
“Yes, the total length.” …………
According to his patience, he waited for nearly ten minutes in the parlor on the first floor. Hermes, the British Minister, had just drunk the last tea in the tea cup, and it happened that Tang Jingsong, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Han Dynasty, came down from the upper floor.
“Your Excellency, I’m sorry to interrupt you to rest at this late hour.”
The British ambassador stood up, first politely, and then explained: “The empire has received several important pieces of information. The US Navy Atlantic Fleet has left the US mainland and is on its way to the Caribbean. The Empire speculates that the US Atlantic Fleet The final destination may be in the southern waters of South America, and the Americans dispatched the Atlantic fleet to target, it is also likely that your coastal garrison and your country ’s naval fleet deployed on the Atlantic side. “
“Thank you for your kind reminder.” Facing the temptation of the British Minister, Tang Jingsong resolutely replied: “Although my country is not as good as the United States in population and national strength, if the United States insists on provoking, it will repeatedly rely on force to intervene. In the internal affairs of our country, my country would rather fight against the United States, and would never compromise or yield! “
“The courage of Your Excellency and your country is admirable, but the military strength of the United States is strong. During the Civil War, the United States was able to mobilize millions of soldiers to participate in the war. Now, the Civil War has ended for more than 20 years. After more than 20 years of development, The population and economic strength of the United States are several times greater than during the Civil War. The industrial and military power that the United States can mobilize is also much stronger than during the Civil War.
On the other hand, although your country has been in existence for more than 20 years, and its population has reached the scale of 18 million people, your country ’s history of founding is still relatively short, and its industrial and economic heritage is in absolute absolute value compared to the United States. Inferior position, in terms of your country’s current comprehensive strength, if a war breaks out with the Americans, even if you can defend the security of your homeland, I am afraid it will cause irreparable economic losses to your country’s economic development.
And the naval power of your country is still in the construction stage. If you lose the naval power of 20 years of hard construction because of a war with a huge disparity in strength, I am afraid that your emperor, your emperor, will regret and be unwilling. “
“Sorry, my Excellency, although I admit that there is a huge power gap between Han and the United States, I do not fully agree with you.”
Tang Jingsong retorted: “First of all, the current hostile situation between the Han State and the United States of America does not belong to the Han State ’s responsibility.
At the beginning of the founding of the Republic of China, the Han Dynasty adhered to the international norms of mutual benefit and equal exchanges, and carried out friendly cooperation in economic, cultural and other aspects with civilized countries. Dahan has always respected the interests and dignity of civilized countries and has never taken the initiative Activities that harm the interests of the United States, and on the contrary, when the United States completed the construction of the Pacific Railway and was reluctant to accept the Chinese laborers who worked **** the railway construction site, the Han side not only actively contacted the United States, but also promised To help them relocate Chinese workers stranded in the United States to South America, and also promised the American side to give up the legacy of pursuing the abuse of Chinese workers by the American Railway Company and deducting their wages.
However, the generosity and concessions in the Han Dynasty not only did not satisfy the satisfaction and gratitude of the Americans, but made their persecution of Chinese workers even worse.
From 1875 to 1885, the number of Chinese who died in the hands of American thugs reached thousands. Among the Chinese who died tragically, there were not only male Chinese workers, but also old people, women and children!
Pressing and provoking Americans step by step! For the sake of national interests, national dignity, and justice for the tragic compatriots, my great Han kingdom will never give up half!
If the United States intervenes in South America and intends to threaten Han with military force, even if war breaks out,
Is also entirely on the American side!
The Han Kingdom is a peace-loving country. We do not want to be an enemy with the United States, but we are not afraid to be an enemy with the Americans!
If the United States is determined to wage a full-scale war against the homeland,
Then, my country will be well prepared for the national battle!
At that time, when American warships sailed into the homeland and American soldiers set foot on the land of Han Dynasty,
I have 18 million citizens in Korea, no matter where they are in the country! All will bear the responsibility of defending the land and defending the enemy!
Whether men, women, children and children, encountering the enemy forces of the United States of America, they will surely face their heads! “
Tang Jingsong’s tone of voice is not so much a statement as not expressing his determination not to fear war with the United States, but rather a mobilization propaganda slogan against the United States.
From Tang Jingsong’s words, Hermes felt the toughness of Han’s official class, and it seemed to see the magnificent scene of all Han nationals struggling to meet the enemy when the war broke out.
According to the information collected for a long time, the Han nationality implements a compulsory military service for all people in the country. Children and teenagers from the age of 10 to 16 and adult men from the age of 16 to 45 are all responsible for military service. Responsibility.
In each of the newly industrialized cities, agriculture, and animal husbandry villages in Han Dynasty, one after another militia and guard army organizations have organized all the men of the appropriate age who are scattered and living in Han Dynasty in an orderly way into a complete military mobilization collective.
Has a total population of 18 million, and more than 2 million school-age militias and police troops are registered.
Behind the simple population figures, they represent high-quality soldiers who have received military education, have primary military skills, and have a strong desire to defend the earth and defend the enemy.
Perhaps it is the difference between traditional cultural education and social nurturing environment. Compared with the soldiers of European countries, soldiers serving in the Han nationality seem to be somewhat docile and submissive, but when they form one combat team after another Entering the battlefield city brings a completely different feeling to the enemy.
During the 1879 Argentine War, the British Expeditionary Fleet recorded the detailed process of fighting with the Han army: “The Han army is not as good as the imperial army, but their fighting will is not inferior to the elite troops of the Empire.
Under the leadership of the military leaders at the grassroots level, they rushed into the position like a pack of wolves, that is, brave and fearless and full of cunning and alertness in the Eastern style. …………

The rolling wheels of time march forward through history ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Ten years and two decades later, the United States ended the Civil War and ushered in the economic take-off. The United Kingdom curbed the tsarist Russia in Europe and the Near East. Expansion began to enter the most prosperous period of the empire, and after the end of the 1879 Argentine War in South America, the industrial and military industries also showed explosive changes in development, the basic industrial system was gradually improved, and the emerging chemical industry was prominent in the international market. Outcrop, and military and military power construction, etc., with the new rifle that uses smokeless gunpowder as a propellant, and the self-built armored cruiser lined up with the army and naval forces, quickly pulled up and kept up with the average level of European powers (in a certain In some subdivided military fields, Han Guobao has certain first-mover advantages).
Comparing the military potential of Han and the United States, and the home advantage that Han has in fighting in South America, Hermes noticed the fact that most British politicians ignore it. In terms of military strength, Han has already achieved South America’s strength against the US military invasion,
The naval power that mainly restricts the military strength of Han is a shortcoming for Han, but for the UK, the lack of Han naval strength is an advantageous condition for promoting the further development of the British-Chinese cooperative relationship.
Britain needs to curb the expansion of the largest imaginary enemy of the United States, and also to ensure that the development of the Han Kingdom will not damage the interests of the United Kingdom. However, if we want to grasp the balance and scale between the two, we must take advantage of Britain ’s naval strength. It is the most effective way to play an important role of regulation and balance in the battle between the United States and the Han Kingdom.
