After Sean Ferguson became the Secretary-General of the Executive Council of the League of Nations, the most important task was to restore the role and authority of the League of Nations in international affairs as soon as possible.
But this is not easy. In the world in 1932, Britain was still the most powerful country in the world, at least in name. Although the strength of the United States and southern Africa had surpassed the United Kingdom, it still needed recognition from the international community.
A process, for many countries, they will not have much fear of Southern Africa until they have personally felt the power of Southern Africa.
The Brazilian military government is a good example.
No matter how powerful Southern Africa is, it will not be much of a deterrent to the Brazilian military government. Because the Brazilian military government has a good father, it is not afraid of Southern Africa at all.
Shaun Ferguson’s attitude is also very obvious. Even the father of the Brazilian military government is under sanctions from the League of Nations. Sons should be more at ease and not cheat their fathers.
Seeing the big bosses talking to themselves and not responding to their accusations at all, Marcelo became furious.
"Mr. Secretary-General, since you are the Secretary-General of the Executive Council of the League of Nations, you must take responsibility and effectively safeguard the interests of all member states of the League of Nations-" Marcelo changed his approach and tried to moralize Sean Ferguson.
kidnapping.
"I not only want to protect the interests of the member states, but also the interests of the nationals of the member states. Please pay attention to my words. I am not just talking about Brazilian nationals, but also southern African nationals." Sean Ferguson said expressionlessly.
Anyone can be kidnapped by morality, and treat others in their own way.
"Marcelo, why can't the Brazilian government sit down and talk with the state capital of Mizhou?" Aveno had an idea. France can't get involved in Brazil now and is very anxious.
Only by sitting down and talking can France have a chance to intervene. It is said that France is also coveting the iron ore in the Iron Four Corners.
“First of all, Iron Square Company must be willing to share benefits. The Brazilian government has never closed the channel for peace.” Marcelo also wanted to talk, but there was no chance.
“Haha——” Sean Ferguson sneered.
Share the benefits?
What a beautiful thought!
When Iron Sijiao invested huge sums of money, no country took the initiative to help.
Now that iron ore has been produced stably, people have begun to come to pick peaches, first from the United States and now from France——
Oh, there was a knight sitting next to Sean Ferguson who didn't speak.
However, if given the opportunity, I believe the British will be more proactive than anyone else.
The UK is actually very embarrassed now. Everyone knows that the essence of the Brazilian Civil War is a conflict of interests between the United States and Southern Africa. The two have a somewhat special relationship with the UK. In British terms, they are the eldest son and the second son, who are strong.
When two sons fight, who should the frail old father help?
Can't help.
I can’t control it!
"The core of all problems lies in the greed of the Iron Four. Without the Iron Four, Brazil would not be in the chaos it is today -" Marcelo is determined to target the Iron Four. This is normal. If Mizhou wins the Brazilian Civil War, Marcelo is determined to target the Iron Four.
, then everything comes to an end, it is better to give it a try to the death.
"The one who is really greedy is your military government -" Sean Ferguson smiled, but in Marcelo's eyes it must have been a grin: "-Even if Rio wins the final victory, you think Rio can get iron
Four corners?”
Shaun Ferguson looked at Marcelo with contempt. A weak person should have the consciousness of a weak person. Isn't it better to just be a little brother? If you have to jump out and commit suicide——
What I haven’t said yet, I’ll let you do it!
“Mr. Secretary-General, what do you mean?” Marcelo may not have expected that Sean Ferguson would speak so bluntly.
After all, we are all diplomats, and we still have to have the decency we should have.
At least when Sir Drummond and Aveno were secretary-generals, they had never been so sharp.
It can be said that under the leadership of Sir Drummond and Aveno, the League of Nations lost its prestige and deteriorated to where it is today.
"What I mean is that anyone who wants to plot against the Iron Square Company must be prepared to face 1.5 million Southern African Union soldiers, 160 warships of various types, 1,100 state-of-the-art fighter jets, 600 heavy tanks, and 130 million soldiers.
The preparations of tens of millions of southern Africans." Sean Ferguson showed off his muscles not only to Marcelo, but also to the British and French.
Marcelo’s face was pale and his body was shaky. The data Sean Ferguson just listed, the closest thing Brazil has is population.
Speaking of population——
When did Southern Africa have 130 million people?
If you add the countries of the Southern African Union, it will be almost the same.
As for the 1.5 million Southern African Union soldiers, this is not a big problem. If Britain and France need it, it will not be a problem to deploy two to three million troops.
But it seems that southern Africa is more explosive.
Others, such as warships, fighter jets, and tanks, are equally formidable.
Compared with the Royal Navy, 160 warships is not many.
However, most of the Royal Navy's warships are old models, but the Southern African warships are all newly built in recent years, with a slight advantage in performance, and the most important thing is that the Southern African Navy's army building ideas are different from the Royal Navy. The Royal Navy still holds the "
The Southern African Navy has been on the right path from the very beginning and has not wasted even a single ton.
The biggest difference is probably between fighter jets and heavy tanks.
Leave aside fighter jets, what is a heavy tank?
How much does it weigh?
Just after Shane Ferguson flexed his muscles, Sir Drummond and Aveno suddenly discovered that they didn’t know anything about southern Africa.
If Sir Drummond and Aveno knew that Sean Ferguson still had reservations, then the shock to Sir Drummond and Aveno would probably be even greater.
It has been proved in the world war that they are all the same armies, but their combat capabilities are completely different.
Referring to the performance of the armies of various countries in the world war, the ranking is probably the British Expeditionary Force>German Army>French Army>Russia>Austro-Hungarian Empire>United States>Italy.
If the Southern African Expeditionary Force is listed separately, then the Southern African Expeditionary Force is undoubtedly at the top of the food chain, while the British Expeditionary Force will fall to about the same level as Russia.
If the Australian and New Zealand Allied Forces were listed separately, then the British Expeditionary Force would have to compete with Italy for deputy squad leader.
That's right, the British Empire Army was that weak.
The United States during World War I was really not as strong as World War II in another time and space.
Even the equipment depends on the troops provided by Britain and France. I really don’t know how to measure it.
In addition to military combat effectiveness, Southern Africa still has great potential that can be tapped in any other aspect. You must know that this is peacetime, and Southern Africa can still maintain such a strong strength. If a war breaks out——
Oh, and I haven’t mentioned it yet, Southern Africa’s mobilization capabilities are also top-notch.
“What are the standards for heavy tanks?” Sir Drummond finally couldn’t help but ask.
This is also a matter of concern to Aveno.
After the World War, France once again prided itself on being the “world’s best army”.
Now it seems that Southern Africa, which has been silent, has the strength to compete with France for the title of "the world's best army"——
Of course this is what Aveno thinks so himself.
"Stronger firepower and thicker armor. According to the standards of the Southern African military, it must be more than fifty tons to be called 'heavy' -" Sean Ferguson did not hide it, come on,
Competition, arms race, are waiting for you.
50 tons!
This standard is a bit high for Britain and France.
The British most advanced "Matilda" tank has a total combat weight of 26 tons.
The Renault heavy tank being developed by France has a total combat weight of no more than 30 tons.
Simply using the tonnage analogy does not prove that Southern African tanks are necessarily more powerful than British and French tanks.
But heavier mass means thicker armor, which also means larger-caliber artillery, and everyone knows this.
So the armor is so thick that enemy tanks cannot penetrate it, and the firepower is so fierce that one shot can penetrate the soul from 2,000 meters away. Everyone knows what this means.
So after hearing Sean Ferguson's somewhat Versailles answer, neither Sir Drummond nor Aveno wanted to speak.
Now Sir and Aveno finally know where the 50 million tonnes of steel produced every year in southern Africa went during the economic crisis.
“The Sultanate of Najd is not strong, but when a war breaks out in the Southern African Union, it is still possible to contribute 100,000 cavalry——” Hassawi is not willing to be lonely, and he must take the initiative to speak at this time to build up his momentum.
“The 15 million people in East India will always be firmly together with southern Africa.” Huang Peng didn’t say much. He knew at this time that he would include the indigenous people.
It is not an exaggeration to say that East India and Southern Africa have such good relations that they are about to merge.
“The Kingdom of Congo will be the first line of defense in southern Africa——” Bradley Gray is right. To attack southern Africa from overland, one must first cross the Kingdom of Congo.
At the moment, among the Southern African Union countries, Louis Bell, the Plenipotentiary Representative of the Republic of Congo to the League of Nations, is the only one who has not yet spoken.
“The Republic of the Congo has a sparse population, but the Republic of the Congo is not afraid of sacrifices——” Louis Bell lived up to expectations. Saying that this country has a sparse population, it depends on who it is compared to. The key is that the population structure is young.
Seeing the heated sentiment among the southern African allies, Stanley Bruce was simply anxious. Australia is still a Commonwealth country, and Stanley Bruce had a lot of worries about this issue.
After all, this kind of behavior similar to "voting a letter of name" is completely different from the usual chatter.
Of course, not all Commonwealth countries have doubts. Canada’s Plenipotentiary to the League of Nations, Halifax Hood, does not have so many scruples.
“Ten million Canadians will always be friends of Southern Africans if Southern Africa needs it——”
Looking at Hood's name, you can tell that his family is probably under the protection of the Atlantic Fleet in southern Africa.
