The first target plane is the United States of Brazil on the South American continent.
Brazil was the residence of Indians in ancient times. In April 1500, the Portuguese arrived in Brazil for the first time and named the land "Holy Cross" and declared it to be owned by Portugal. However, after the occupation, due to the Portuguese colonists
The plundering of Brazil began with the felling of Brazilian mahogany, so the word "mahogany" (brasil, transliterated as "Brazil") gradually replaced "Holy Cross" and became the name of the country of Brazil, which has been used until later generations.
Starting from April 1500, although the Portuguese rule in the Brazilian colony experienced stumbling blocks and was successively interfered by other European countries, it was generally in their own hands. It was not until 18 years that Portuguese Prince Pedro became the regent of Brazil, 2
Years later, he was crowned emperor in September 1822, called Pedro I, and declared Brazil's complete independence from Portugal, establishing the Brazilian Empire.
From 1822 to 1889 was the period when the Brazilian Empire existed. Its domestic dynastic system and the power of the Portuguese aristocracy remained basically intact. It followed the large estate system and slavery, and was mainly economically and politically dependent on the United Kingdom. In November 1889,
Brazilian General Fonseca launched a coup, overthrew the Pedro Empire and established the United States of Brazil (actually ruled by a military government).
At this stage, Brazil mainly relied on coffee planting and export trade to maintain its economic development and growth, but
The global economic crisis that broke out in the 1930s dealt a heavy blow to Brazil's economic system, which mainly relied on dependence to survive. In addition, Brazilian President Getulio Vargas, who had been in power since 1930, implemented a dictatorial style.
rule (which was overthrown in 1945 in the main plane), so on the first target plane, in 1944, there was a huge crisis within Brazilian society, and the national power was on the eve of being overthrown.
Brazil, Rio de Janeiro.
Rio de Janeiro is located in the south of Brazil, very close to the sea. It is the most prosperous city and region in Brazil. It is also the best representative of Brazil's history of richness in the south and poverty in the north, and extremely uneven economic development.
Ichiro Kamemoto is a Japanese pirate worker from the lower class of Brazil, who makes a living by selling his physical strength and skills. In recent years, due to the Second World War, the Star-Spangled Banner Republic's demand for coffee, wood and other supplies has soared
, the Brazilian domestic economy has grown rapidly, and job opportunities and salaries have increased relatively, so that people at the bottom of society like Kamemoto Ichiro have no problem making ends meet.
However, as the war progressed and social wealth gradually increased, Brazil's traditional upper class forces, business groups, and the powerful elites such as President Getulio Vargas, instinctively monopolized and hoarded in order to maximize the exploitation of private wealth.
Seeking huge profits and large amounts of food,
Basic commodities such as black beans, sugar cane wine, sugar, pigs, chickens, cattle and horses have been speculated on, and their trading has been restricted. Many small and medium-sized livestock traders and slaughterers have also taken advantage of the crisis and blatantly put a large amount of materials on the black market.
Trading in order to raise prices and make huge profits.
"Bagaya Road, Bagaya Road." Ichiro Kamemoto cursed in a low voice as he looked at the butcher shops with no meat to sell and the grain stores with no grain to sell.
"Go away! I already told you that there is nothing to sell." Seeing the price of food rising three times a day, the store owner, who was afraid that he would lose money, scolded him. Ichiro Kamemoto, who had no social status, did not dare to resist at all, so he had to despair.
's gone.
A low-rise bungalow in a slum area on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro is also the home of Ichiro Kamemoto.
"You're back, Kamemoto-kun. Did you gain anything today?" Koji Sawada asked in the room.
"There is nothing! Do they want to starve us to death?" Kamemoto Ichiro sat on the simple wooden bed dejectedly, scratching the red rash on his legs caused by the proliferation of fleas in Brazil with his left hand.
"They want to make every last coin out of us, and they want us to become slaves who have nothing but work forever." Sawada Koji said very calmly.
"Then what should we do? I haven't had anything to eat for two days." The hungry Ichiro Kamemoto said, feeling the sourness and squirming coming from his stomach, he couldn't help himself.
"Don't worry, soon, we will be able to change everything completely. Those greedy manor owners and ranchers own vast farms, as well as thousands of fat cattle and horses, beautiful houses, white skin and blue
Women with delicate eyes will become the private property of us Japanese pirates." Koji Sawada, who is also thin but has eye-catching eyes, said in a seductive and affirmative tone.
"Really?"
"Of course, this is just the final suffering. The empire will not abandon its people. Soon the glory of the empire will shine throughout Brazil."
At the same time, the waters of South Georgia Island in the South Atlantic Ocean.
"How long does it take to reach the destination?" asked General Yamamoto, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese pirate fleet, who was in the command cabin of the aircraft carrier.
"Hi! Mr. Yamamoto, there is still about a day and a half of sailing before our fleet can reach the waters near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In order to avoid being discovered prematurely by ships from other countries, the combined fleet circled a large U-shaped bay, so it took a lot of time.
3 days." Furu Shige, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet, replied.
"What's the trend of the Stars and Stripes Pacific Fleet?" Yamamoto Isoroku nodded and continued to ask.
"They are still staying on the west coast and have not made any changes. In addition, the main force of the Atlantic Fleet of the Star-Spangled Banner Republic has been fully committed to the European battlefield because of the Normandy landing campaign. At this time, the entire South America can be said to be almost undefended." Fuliu, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet.
Fan said excitedly.
"Yamamoto-dono..." Koga Mineichi, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke.
"kindness?"
"I personally know very well that the Stars and Stripes will not tolerate the existence of any hostile forces in South America, but the environment here in Brazil is really excellent. There are more than 40 million people in our country, and our expatriates account for more than 3 million. In terms of population ratio, it is far superior to
Yanhuang Continent. As long as we succeed in the landing campaign, coupled with appropriate propaganda and material temptations, I think we can quickly obtain the political power and territory of the entire Brazil from top to bottom. The entire Brazil of more than 8 million square kilometers will finally be
Are you giving up?" Kogamine asked in a low voice.
"The distance is too far, and logistical supplies are unsustainable." Yamamoto Isoroku shook his head expressionlessly.
"But didn't that pseudo-Meiji Emperor promise to provide a large amount of supplies at a fixed time?" Kogamine said without giving up.
"Are you going to leave the future of the empire in the hands of an unknown person?"
"But..."
"Mr. Koga, actually you don't need to worry too much," Fukugashige suddenly interjected: "According to my calculations, if the first batch of landing troops successfully lands, they will be responsible for organizing and arming 3 million expatriates, which can basically ensure the safety of all key cities in Brazil.
According to the existing army and naval forces of the Stars and Stripes, even it will never be able to support the three battlefields of the Pacific, Europe, and Brazil at the same time, especially the two million troops participating in the Stars and Stripes landing in Normandy. Therefore,
Necessary trade-offs are necessary. If they counterattack Brazil, we can transport another 50,000 to 100,000 army troops before then, so that 100,000 to 150,000 imperial troops plus 3 million expatriates will be equipped with sufficient weapons and equipment.
, enough to plunge the Stars and Stripes into a huge quagmire. Taking advantage of this opportunity, if we capture India, we can open up a land for the empire to revive, and we can also destroy Britain's war potential, so that we can join forces with Germany to dominate Europe, Asia and Africa."
"What if the Star-Spangled Banner leaves Brazil alone?" asked Yamamoto Isoroku.
"If Stars and Stripes does not send troops to Brazil, we can still use the time difference to raid India, and then the combined fleet will turn around to intercept the Stars and Stripes Pacific Fleet that invades again. At the same time, we can take this opportunity to develop India and Brazil at the same time and build fortifications. This may be the final result of Stars and Stripes.
Defeat, a major turning point in the Empire’s final victory.”
"Yamamoto-dono..." Kogamine looked at Yamamoto Isoroku after hearing Fukuru Shige's speech.
"When the Combined Fleet takes control of the Brazilian port, if the Army guys are willing to transport more ground troops, I have no objection. But as the commander-in-chief of the Combined Fleet, I will never agree to let the entire fleet stay in order to support more ground troops.
It’s a dangerous place, so when the planned end time comes, we must evacuate on time, do you understand?”
"Hi!" Seeing that their "boss" looked unhappy, Koga Hoiichi and Fukuru Shige knew better and did not try to persuade him.
The next morning.
Koji Sawada took Ichiro Kamemoto and dozens of others to a warehouse on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro in the name of helping with transportation. After opening it, he saw that it was filled with 38-type covers and 92-type machine guns of Japanese pirate army standard equipment.
,sweet
Weapons and equipment that are easy to learn and use, such as melon grenades. Under Koji Sawada’s demonstration, everyone understood the basic usage. As for test firing here, it is impossible. We can only wait until the bombing begins and practice shooting while rioting.
.
Wang Fan was hiding in a big tree not far from them.
"The chess pieces you arranged are actually useless. They are just a mob." Yadi said in Wang Fan's head.
"Haha, right, they are indeed a mob. But once the bombing starts and the Brazilian military government's troops fall into chaos and panic, these mobs can still cause them a lot of trouble." Wang Fan nodded.
"But capturing Brazil still requires real landing troops. These people are trouble at best." Yadi reminded.
"Anyway, those who died were not Yanhuang people, but all Japanese pirates. What's wrong? And let me think about it, what will happen when the anger that has been suppressed for a long time is suddenly released? Massacre, rape, torture, killing prisoners, in short, all ethnic groups
Hatred and hostility against people of color and race will completely plunge the entire Brazil into civil strife, and then we will see what happens to the Stars and Stripes?"
"What's your estimate?"
"It's hard to say, but Roosevelt was not a good man. Maybe he also recruited troops again based on the 10 million troops (including logistics, transportation, and clerks) to open up a third battlefield."
"Are you going to be aggressive?"
"I don't know if it counts. But at least in this way, it can truly begin to overdraw the national power of the Stars and Stripes. For me, as long as it can delay the duration of World War II and slow down the defeat of the little devils and Germans, the newly established Yanhuang Democratic Republic
It takes time to consume and absorb all the knowledge I brought to improve the level of private education and per capita quality. Before that, it is better to let the world be a little chaotic." Wang Fan looked at the black spots appearing in the sky in the distance, and the sound coming from
