Chapter six hundred and nineteenth sound movie came out
"It sounds like there is nothing wrong with it, but one day these backward peoples will take revenge on us." Jesla is an Eastern European, but her heart is actually different from the citizens who currently live in the imperialist countries.
.
"It doesn't take a day, it exists now, but I usually don't say it out loud." Sheffield smiled, otherwise when European and American countries criticize African countries for being bribed by China, why are they always regarded as farts by black people?
African countries are a bit behind in development, but that doesn't mean they can't tell the difference between good and bad people. Yellow people have not colonized Africa, which means they have not colonized Africa. If white people have colonized black people, they have colonized them.
Black people are naturally wary of white people, and this is the basis for China to conquer cities and territories in Africa in later generations. African countries do not have the power to break through the multi-layered filters established by white countries, but some countries can break through.
Although Sheffield also agrees that if China catches up with the colonial era with a small probability, it will still do what white people have done. It will not be like the peaceful coexistence of Confucian culture in some online literature.
Even ethnic groups who live in the same land and have similar appearances have to distinguish who is the boss and who is the second. How can they coexist peacefully when meeting a completely unfamiliar ethnic group? This assumption seems to make the slave owners laugh.
"The price will definitely be paid!" Sheffield said philosophically. Later European and American countries tried their best to remind Africans that China was engaging in neocolonialism. If Africans did not listen, it could be understood as a kind of price.
Some things will naturally have consequences if they are done. Without the southern slave owners represented by the Sheffield family, the current United States would have such a large land area? The main supporters of the westward expansion movement are the slave owners in the south.
The Democratic Party insists on taking the line of agricultural empire and continues to expand its territory westward. At the same time, the South can provide space for the development of slavery. This approach is of course also very popular for homesteaders, because farmers need it most.
It is cheap land. To develop industry in the north, it is necessary to concentrate resources rather than expand. As a result, the new territory is mainly agricultural and animal husbandry production, and a new political zone is essentially formed in the north, which is the west. The political situation in the United States is divided into three directions: north, south, and west.
The pattern of the game. As a new state, the west has a more democratic system, which has impacted the political tradition of the north.
Therefore, the South's active westward expansion contrasted with the North's hesitation. The South's vigorous expansion would naturally demand more seats in Congress and more slave states, making the abolitionists' restrictive strategies empty talk.
The fact that there are so many black people in the United States today is a problem created by the slave-owning class in the South. However, the fact that the United States now has such a large territory is also the result of the vigorous advancement of the slave-owning class.
Didn't Sheffield regret it? Isn't it now vigorously targeting the black people in the country? There will also be two results. A more conservative society may greatly reduce the population of the black community. It is also so hostile.
Black countries can no longer expect to have any influence in Africa in the future.
If in the original history, the United States still had some influence in Africa, if the current situation continues to develop, this influence will not exist. This will not only affect the future of Africa, but also the national forces in other places. What the United States wants
It will also become more difficult to promote values, and the human beacon may not be very bright.
A world hegemon with more support, or a world hegemon with less support. Sheffield chose the latter, which may be detrimental to the hegemony of the United States, but it is not necessarily detrimental to the Sheffield family.
If the United States' world hegemony is beneficial to Sheffield, then it will be a good world hegemon. On the other hand, if he is a citizen class who cannot even spend four hundred dollars and may become a tramp at any time due to an accident, then this
There is a meaning to being a world hegemon.
During this period, we were engaged in a war of words with the major Hollywood studios, saying with a tough attitude that the Screen Actors Guild has been established and you must accept it. Sheffield also received two pieces of news.
The first one is that the Qing Dynasty finally reached the key point of history and handed over the power to the Beiyang Army it had cultivated. Peace talks are now underway. What follows is that the Beiyang Army will be in power within three years.
The army expanded from 75,000 to 1.2 million. Of course, the consequence of this is that the combat effectiveness of the Beiyang Army will drop rapidly.
The Six Beiyang Towns were the last army supported by the Qing government. The reason why some of them were dispatched to beat the New Army in the South to the point of crying was because of the support of the entire country. This army of less than 80,000 people, even from 19
It was officially called the Beiyang Standing Army in 2002, and it has been carefully cultivated for ten years. In just three years, it has expanded to 1.2 million, and the elite troops will definitely be diluted to a terrifying level.
The two battleships from the San Francisco Shipyard arrived in Zhili and were delivered to the Beiyang Government. As for whether there will be a follow-up contract in the future, it depends on the intentions of the Beiyang Government. Sheffield has no hope for the follow-up contract.
The second thing was that John Connor, who arrived in North Africa, cooperated with Enver Pasha, led the two legions he formed, and started a battle with the Italian army. This was the first battle after the mercenaries arrived in North Africa.
In fact, Italy should teach these newly arrived mercenaries a lesson and should do this when they first landed. Because among the soldiers hired by India, the infectious disease was finally found to be plague.
The two legions were isolated in the Gobi Desert for half a month. During that period, they were very vulnerable. Unfortunately, the Italians did not know this. If it were not for the dry environment, this infectious disease would not have been so easy to overcome.
As the first stop for humans to come out of Africa, the environment in North Africa is naturally unique. If you do not consider the large population in East and South Asia, but a proper scale of civilization, North Africa and the Mesopotamia are a good place. It is dry.
On the edge of the desert, it is not easy for influenza diseases to break out, which has a great protective effect on ancient humans who basically relied on physical conditions to resist.
John Connor's telegram stated that in March, the two legions he led cooperated with the Ottoman army and fought a battle with the Italian army. As a result, the two legions suffered more than 3,000 casualties, and the Ottoman army suffered 1,000 casualties.
The Italian army's losses also exceeded a thousand people.
The Ottoman-Arab coalition forces continued to send reinforcements and artillery support, threatening the Italian army's front. At the same time, the Arabs tried to encircle the Italian army. Italy sent further reinforcements, and John Connor commanded two mercenaries to intercept. The two sides entered the stage of refueling tactics, so
Able to stabilize the situation until it is over.
John Connor attributed the loss of the two legions to the poor quality of the mercenaries recruited from the Middle East and Hindustan. The loss of retired officers from the Black Gold Company and the mainland was in the range of a hundred people.
For the first time, Sheffield discovered that Mr. Savior has a tendency to develop towards Chang Gong in terms of keeping silent about defeat and winning. What level of tactics is this? We have reached the stage where maybe we should do something, but it is already too late?
"John Connor is very down-to-earth. People who don't know better still think that North Africa is my territory? Isn't it a bit too much for a mercenary to work harder than the Ottoman army?" Sheffield held the telegram and rushed in with a look of disbelief on his face.
Asking Jesra, "You can't be smarter in fighting, why are you fighting the Civil War so hard?"
"Boss, I noticed that most of the casualties were from the Holy Sword Legion. These Hindustan soldiers were recruited in the name of the Caliphate Jihad. Is there any reason for this?" Jesra sent the message over.
I read the telegram from beginning to end and discovered the problem.
"No matter what the name is, I only know that I am hired with money, and I have to pay a salary every month." Sheffield snorted and sneered twice, "Although the Indians pay three dollars a month, they die more than me.
You have to pay some money, right? Besides, there is no such war, and more people died than the Ottoman army. What do Europeans think?"
"I will talk about this in the call back." Jesra nodded and was about to leave, but was called back by Sheffield. "Announce to the public that there were 10,000 casualties in this battle. Report a little more damage to make the Italians look good."
After all, they claim to be an imperialist country, so don’t hold your head high in Europe. As for the next actions, the enemy will advance and we will retreat, the enemy will be stationed and we will harass, the enemy will be tired and we will attack, and the enemy will retreat and we will pursue it. It is not our own land, so we can’t take it with us.
With the drive to protect our country, we just need to fire a few cold shots and kill three to five Italian soldiers in one day, and the mission will be completed."
The slave owner was still prepared to give the Italians some face, but he soon realized that he was being pretentious. In the Roman newspapers, the story of the heroic Italian army killing ten times the enemy had spread throughout the streets.
The losses subsequently announced by John Connor only confirmed this unprecedented victory. Even the announcement of 10,000 casualties was considered to be false data. The Italians believed that the real losses were far higher than those announced.
many.
Sheffield could not win the war of words in Italy, but in the war of words in Los Angeles, the slave owners undoubtedly won the victory. With the support of the vast majority of actors in Hollywood, they formulated actor guarantee contracts.
On March 12, the day when the Screen Actors Guild was officially established, Sheffield and David Griffith announced to hundreds of actors gathered that the second part of The Birth of a Nation would start filming soon. To restore the true story
Civil War.
"This time we will use records to dub the movie and complete a sound movie. We must let the sound enter the ears of citizens. I believe this will bring about a new Guanyin craze." David Griffiths said
Under Sheffield's instruction, the news was announced to the actors present.
Talkies actually appeared in 1900. As for the exploration of talkies this time, Sheffield purchased the talkie patent from Edison from Morgan.
"I will also play a cameo role in the movie!" Sheffield said humbly to the actors here, "I hope I can learn more from you in terms of acting."
Chapter completed!
