There are actually only a few effective methods to deal with guerrilla warfare in history, and the most effective one is concentration camps. Many years later, the Red Tu Kingdom produced a world-famous guerrilla warfare master. This master had a classic metaphor about the relationship between the army and the people, that is, the relationship between fish and water. Therefore, the most thorough way to catch fish is to directly dry the water. This is the idea of ​​using concentration camps to deal with guerrillas. That is to say, control all the residents of a certain area so that they cannot contact the guerrillas, which makes it difficult for guerrillas to get support from civilians.

This move was first invented by the Spanish in Cuba. Unfortunately, it was a little late when it was invented. The Cuban guerrillas had developed enough to defeat the Spanish in mobile warfare. Then Cuba had another big problem, that is, it was too far from heaven and too close to the United States. The Americans jumped out to disturb the situation, and the Spanish's set was useless.

In the original history, although the Spaniards who invented it failed to defeat the Cuban guerrillas by relying on this, some other countries learned this trick and successfully carried it forward. For example, in the Boer War, Britain relied on concentration camps to finally defeat the Boer guerrillas. Then, the Americans successfully used this trick to settle the Philippine uprising army in the Philippines. Later, after 918, Japan used this trick to build a large-scale gathering of Jiajia and garrison in the Northeast, that is, to concentrate multiple original natural villages and enclose them with walls. They needed security checks when entering and leaving, making it increasingly difficult for the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces to get the support of the local people and become increasingly difficult, and finally forced the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces to withdraw to the Soviet Union.

Later, after 77, the Japanese attacked North and South China, and encountered the 18th Army of the National Revolutionary Army whose guerrilla warfare skills had reached max. At one time, they also wanted to play this trick and developed a cage policy. The three-light policy came out. However, due to insufficient troops, they often could only rely on the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army is really not a thing. In terms of the game, it is said to be low defense, low agility, low blood, and the explosion rate is also very high. The Japanese Locust Army has the rules to destroy weapons when they are in desperate situations. Even if they are overwhelmed with difficulty, they generally cannot produce any equipment. Only the Imperial Army, which will explode the equipment as soon as they fight. Then the guerrillas used the Imperial Army as a transport team. As a result, the little Japanese attempt naturally failed in a mess.

Later, Ah Mei, you saw that you had played this trick in Nanyue and even named it Strategic Village. As a result, because you needed to use the Imperial Army a lot, you were eventually cheated.

But no matter what, this method is indeed a very vicious method when dealing with guerrilla warfare. Moreover, in South Africa, because the number of Boers is limited and the number of British troops is enough, the number of those cheating Royal Army troops can control the Boers through concentration camps.

"Alberto, are you worried that the British would not be able to quell the Boers' rebellion in a short time?" asked the Uncle Peter.

"Yes, I even think that's where the McDonald consortium dares to play with us in the gold market," Alberto replied.

"But the public pressure on doing this will be very high, especially in the UK, which has just used chemical weapons. Although the fortress has been solved, such an approach will definitely be widely attacked. At this time, even the British government will probably find it difficult to immediately adopt the method you said," Peter said.

"Yes, this is indeed a problem. The next focus of our step is probably to fight a propaganda war with MacDonald. It's so damn, this is his strength."

...

"Grastone, you are a propaganda student. Whether we can let the British and those Jewish people suffer a lot this time depends on how the propaganda you hosted is doing. Do you have any opinions on this?" Scrooge asked.

"Dad, uncle, after I mentioned at the last family meeting that public opinion must be used to restrain the British, I conducted some research on this." Grestone said, and took out a few thick documents and distributed them to everyone.

"Dad, you once said that one of the most important things in doing business is to understand who is our friend and who is our enemy. The same is true in the field of propaganda. Nowadays, dissatisfaction with Britain is common in Europe. But the British are very cunning, and they can always find ways to differentiate Europe. For example, now, both France, Germany and Russia have conflicts with Britain. There is no need to say much about France. Their grudges with Britain are much longer than those of the United States. The Germans are now facing the big problem of insufficient markets, but the markets in the world are almost all in the hands of the British. If Germany wants to develop, they must push Britain down. As for Russia, if he is still dreaming of the Third Rome, then Britain is the enemy. Therefore, in this public opinion offensive, they may stand on our side.

However, France is facing greater pressure on Germany now, and Artsace and Lorraine are not so easy to forget. In a sense, France's economic development in recent years is far inferior to Germany. One of the important reasons is the defeat of the French-Prussian War. Therefore, in order to fight against Germany, France and Britain have a lot of close relationships. However, this cannot change the fact that the French feel uncomfortable with the British. France has long been the center of European culture, with a large number of influential literati. These people, in general, have a serious tendency to humanism and Virgin Mary. As long as we throw out a large number of shocking facts about the war of poison gas, these people will jump out to criticize Britain. These people have a great influence in France. Although their attitudes cannot influence the attitude of the government, they can definitely affect the attitude of the entire France and even Europe. As for Germany, they can even know that they are our ally. In fact, what I care more about is the relevant propaganda in the UK."

"On the UK domestic publicity? This idea is interesting." Scrooge nodded and said, "What did you think?"

"Dad, because there are many such people in the UK. In fact, any country will have such good morals. For example, if we were using poison gas in the Philippines now and then Mr. Mark Twain found out, who would he stand on the side of speaking? He would definitely stand on the side of humanity and justice. So I plan to contact these people, provide them with the truth, and then create public opinion pressure in the UK."

"Very good idea." Catherine nodded, "But you may have overlooked one thing, that is, the British opposition party. Although they will not disagree with the fundamental matters related to national interests, the British generally believe that the overall situation is settled. At this time, attack the ruling party so that they will not further consolidate their position through this victory. Therefore, at this time, the British opposition party is definitely willing to jump out and bite the ruling party."

"Aunt Catherine." Grestone replied with a smile, "We still have plans for this. We plan to start arguing with some liberal figures in the UK, and then let the Liberals follow up. Of course, this still requires Aunt Catherine's help..."

Catherine's family is now much stronger than before with McDonald's financial resources. Greston hopes to establish relations with the British Liberal Party through them. The Liberal Party was once a major British party, formerly the Whig Party established in 1679. It has been ruled for many years and the Conservative Party originating from the Whig Party. However, in 1886, due to the Ireland incident, the Liberal Party split and some of its members turned to the Conservative Party. From then on, the Liberal Party has lost its glory, and it has been suppressed by the Conservative Party, both in the government and in the parliament. So they will definitely not let go of such an opportunity. After all, Britain has won now, and they will make trouble again.

It is not considered to be a drag on the country. Moreover, the British Empire can rule the world not only by the army, but also by the British Empire's superb diplomatic means. If you want to play diplomatic means well, the necessary face is still needed. The great countries in human history are basically countries that need to be both women's watches and arches. If you only want to be a arch, that is, if you are just a arch, then it is absolutely difficult for you to survive in this malicious world. Now, in the UK, someone must stand up to criticize the Conservative Party who has become a arch and hold the arch of the shaky civilized people.

"Yes, after such a round, it is estimated that the British will at least not be able to immediately come up with any tricks of resentment in South Africa." Carol said this at last.

...

At this time, the German General Staff was also seriously studying the situation of the Boer War. There were too many things worth studying in this war. The Boer's tactics of using solid support points to restrain the enemy, using high-mobile troops to attack the enemy's flanks and logistics, the British's logistics support based on railways and the final amazing chemical tactics are worthy of careful study. In general, after studying the current situation of the Boer War, the Germans were very happy, because through this study, the Germans believed that they could at least be sure of these points:

First, the German team, especially the German Army, was on the right path. Compared with the British Army, the German Army had better firepower configuration. The German Army had equipped heavy artillery with towing cars, which made the German division-level artillery significantly larger than the British. Moreover, the Germans also equipped large-caliber train guns with large caliber. This war also proved that when facing solid fortifications, the large-caliber artillery had irreplaceable role.

The second point is that chemical weapons have great power, and compared with the British army that are still using phosgene, the Germans' chemical weapons are much higher in level. At least, they now have new chemical weapons that cannot be defended by gas masks alone.r1058
