() It is not correct to say that the whole world was in a rotation in spring of 1920. In mainland China, which was ruled by the government of the Republic of China at that time, many Chinese scholars and intellectuals published a lot of defense for the government of the South China Sea Federation.
and articles supporting the government of the South China Sea Federation. Most of them believe that this is another disaster imposed by imperialism on the Chinese. They are afraid that the Chinese will unite and shake their dominance of the world. However, although these intellectuals support the federation
zheng
fu, but they also have a tragic view of the outcome of this war. Due to the environment they are in, they cannot imagine that the Chinese country can rely on its own strength to fight against the whole world and achieve final victory.
The outside world is full of negative voices, and Liu Fei can't find peace in the presidential palace. First of all, there are two bastards David and Schneider, especially David. He actually gave Liu Fu the same day when the United States declared war on the South China Sea Federation.
Fu sent a telegram, first to express his confidence that it would not ultimately influence Congress to veto the U.S. government.
Fu apologized to Liu Fu for his proposal to join the war, and then began to persuade Liu Fu to stop the war and surrender to Britain, the United States and other countries, and promised that he would use all his strength to at least save Taiwan for Liu Fu in the subsequent negotiations between the two parties.
Liu Fu can still continue to be his native emperor on the island of Taiwan in order to benefit the island.
After getting a negative reply from Liu Fu, David sent a second telegram. The telegram did not continue to persuade Liu Fu to surrender, because David knew this person who had worked with him for decades, and as long as he decided something, he would usually
Nothing would change, especially when he decided that this was what should be done. So David made another suggestion, that is, Liu Fei resigned from the presidency, and David would help him arrange a country for political asylum.
Where Liu Fu will continue to enjoy a high quality of life.
Finally, after getting Liu Fu's second denial, David sent a third telegram, and this telegram was encrypted in a special way, which would only be used in emergencies. In the telegram
, David provided Liu Fu with detailed information on the U.S. task force. From
From the ship type to the ship number, and even the biography of each captain and the maintenance records of each ship, Liu Fu's secretary in the President's Office took 7 hours to receive this telegram alone, and then translated it
It took a whole day for Liu Fu to read the full text of the message.
Liu Fu was completely convinced by David. He sold the United States, where he had lived for most of his life, without even mentioning a word about the British fleet. Furthermore, he faced the possibility of a cruel war.
Wei didn't say a word about his wife and son, who had become a federal citizen and served as federal finance minister and senior military officer.
Liu Fei and David have been together for most of their lives. Sometimes David can't understand Liu Fei's thoughts, but David finally chooses to believe Liu Fei; sometimes Liu Fei can't understand David's thoughts, but in the end Liu Fei
Fu also chose to believe that at some point
moment. When Liu Fu quietly thinks about the decades of life he has traveled through, he will think pessimistically that he has been busy for decades and may accomplish nothing in the end. But with people like David
Such a friend is not very unfair.
However, no matter how good of a friend he was, Liu Fu would not tell him his plans. In the telegram to David, Liu Fu only asked him not to expose his relationship with the Federation to the eyes of the American government.
He also asked him to mobilize all his political friends, prepare to give up President Wilson, and choose to support a person closer to their interests as a presidential candidate, because the United States government
Fu will soon fall into a situation where he is defeated and defeated miserably. At that time, it is the time for him to exert his influence in American politics. After all, the two countries cannot continue to fight endlessly, and they should try their best to
Saving the face of the loser and signing an armistice agreement acceptable to both sides was the greatest help David could give Liu Fu at that moment.
After David received Liu Fu's telegram, instead of laughing at Liu Fu's arrogance, he was overjoyed because he found Liu Fu's demigod-like tone in the telegram again, and between him and Liu Fu
In the decades of dating Fu, this tone appeared several times. David did not choose to believe it once, and the final results of these times proved that Liu Fu was telling the truth. David did not believe it that time.
Lost a very big business, oil.
That night, David visited several congressmen who were close to him. Most of these congressmen voted against the proposal of the United States to join the war. David did not explain his intentions, but only asked these congressmen to make a decision.
A plan, and this plan is for David to use all his wealth to bet that the United States will lose in this war.
This plan may seem crazy to others, but to these politicians, it is perfectly normal. Sometimes politics is gambling. The more unpopular it is, the more likely it is that the greatest benefits will be obtained. Thanks to David, a big player in the world,
With the support of wealthy people, an organization that was determined to hope that the United States' government would lose this war, so that it could overthrow its political opponents and give itself a chance to realize its ideals, was quietly established.
Liu Fu was not interested in asking how David could realize his greatest value in the United States. Now all Liu Fu's attention was on the British and American fleets. Although the federal navy and air force had already followed the original plan and the situation at the time,
Corresponding arrangements have been made, but war is just like a football match.
A small detail, or even a small hole in the grass, may determine the final result of a game. What Liu Fu needs to do now is to mobilize all staff to look for every small hole in the grass. Even if he cannot find it,
When it is filled in, a mark must be made so that all team members can notice it and not step in it.
On the western front, the Federal Navy has deployed a total of 2 aircraft carrier formations and 40 Shark-class submarines near Sumatra Island; the Federal Air Force has also deployed more than 100 aircraft on Sumatra Island and the Malay Peninsula to cope with the worst case scenario.
, the federal army also stationed 2 divisions on Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula;
On the eastern front, the Federal Navy has also deployed 2 aircraft carrier formations and 50 ships, most of which are "Orca-class" attack submarines. Since the waters in the eastern Philippines are deeper and the sea surface is wider, they are more suitable for this kind of attack submarines.
The role of large attack submarines. The Federal Air Force has deployed a total of 400 aircraft on Samar Island, Mindanao Island and Taiwan Island.
On the northern front, two divisions of the federal army were stationed in Anchu and Anbei provinces to monitor the activities of the British troops in Myanmar. Although the possibility of the British troops attacking the Union from Myanmar was not very high, they had to guard against it.
.On the north and east sides of Taiwan Island, some old-fashioned "Big Yellow Fish-class" submarines and torpedo boats serve as the main maritime defense force, coupled with some shore-based aircraft to prevent surprise attacks from the Republic of China and Japan.
On the southern front, three heavy cruisers and 30 submarines of the Commonwealth Navy will monitor northern Australia and New Guinea to prevent the Australian and New Zealand Navy from taking advantage of the chaos to make a sneak attack.
In addition to arrangements in the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest, the federal navy also laid mines in advance outside several important ports that the British and American navies might attack, just in case.
It may be that countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States are too confident in their own strength, or it may be that the just-ended World War I has made the British Navy more unscrupulous. On May 30, 1920, just the fourth day after the United Kingdom and the United States issued a statement, the British Navy in Colombo Port, Ceylon
support fleet,
Suddenly broke out of the Port of Colombo, and under the cover of the thick early morning fog, formed three columns and sailed eastward; the US task force anchored in Guam also left the Port of Guam at night the night before, taking
Formed the destroyer escort formation and headed northwest.
At the same time that the British and American fleets left the port, the Federal Navy also received the report. After analysis by the Federal General Staff, the Western Front ambush fleet headed by the "Growth" and "Guangmu" aircraft carrier formations also left.
At the Bandakiya Naval Base on Sumatra Island, the two aircraft carrier formations were 100 kilometers apart and headed north side by side to the predetermined location, 250 kilometers west of Phang Nga on the Malay Peninsula, waiting for the coming British support fleet.
The eastern ambush fleet, headed by the aircraft carrier formations "Chikuo" and "Tawen", also departed from Citong Port and Davao Port and went to the predetermined sea area 400 kilometers west of Luzon Island to assemble. (To be continued.
