The rise of the Chinese navy is a miracle no matter which angle you look at it. The navy is different from the army because it involves many technologies such as navigation and heavy industry. The navy is most inseparable from the accumulation of technology. The premise of this accumulation is a large number of experiments and
Actual combat. This is why when the Chinese Pacific Fleet first came out, traditional naval powers such as the United States, Britain, and Japan looked down upon it, and even dared to ridicule it. After all, the first time the Chinese went to the ocean was in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. And in
For a long time after that, the Chinese navy was unable to get out of the first island chain.
Although Falkenhausen is an army general, and the German navy is far inferior to that of Britain, the United States, Japan and other countries, he still knows some basic common sense about the navy. Therefore, when the China Pacific Fleet was first established, he also
Not optimistic about it. From the perspective of a friend, he even thought that the Chinese were too hasty and too high-profile in the formation of the ocean fleet. Because of this view at the beginning, when the Chinese Pacific Fleet defeated the Japanese Combined Fleet and the U.S. Pacific Fleet in steps
After hearing the news, the old French man was first shocked beyond measure, and then asserted that the Chinese must have an unparalleled naval genius.
Germany attacked Soviet Russia even though it failed to achieve full success in the European War. The main reason was that Germany did not have the navy to match the British and was unable to break through the English Channel. During this period of seclusion, Falkenhausen spent a lot of time
He devoted his energy to studying Germany's performance in World War II. He finally concluded that even without Hitler's assassination, Germany would not be able to realize its desire to dominate Europe. "Germany lacks a powerful navy. Without a navy, there will be no navy."
So, no matter what scale Germany can operate on land, if it cannot control the sea, it will eventually be dragged down by the British or even dragged to death!" With this understanding in mind, what should Germany do in the era without Hitler?
How to protect itself, Falkenhausen believes that Germany needs an ally, and this ally must also have a powerful navy. Because the United States has not actually participated in the European War at this time and space, Falkenhausen's original favorite ally was
The United States. But now, after Gu Weijun came to the door and extended an olive branch on behalf of the Chinese government, he suddenly discovered that China has a maritime power that is not weaker than that of the United States. Falkenhausen has actually approved Gu Weijun's proposal.
First there was an alliance between Germany and France, and then there was an alliance between China, Germany and France. With China, Germany and France officially becoming allies, the United Nations has a solid skeleton.
The United Nations at that time and space had five permanent members. Don’t underestimate the status of “permanent members.” Because on some major international affairs, these five permanent members have one-vote veto power. And this often means major decisions.
Benefit.
It should be due to the influence of the international situation in that time and space that Ouyang Yun's five permanent members of the Security Council are still China, the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France. In other words, even if the United Nations headquarters was moved to Guangzhou, he did not touch the dominant country of China.
The idea is to make some concessions on some international affairs and share the pie with the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France.
However, the United States and the United Kingdom did not seem to appreciate it at all. No, after being slightly provoked by Toshiichiro Koizumi, they formed an anti-China alliance.
It is undeniable that the permanent members are the cornerstone of the existence of the United Nations and the pillar for the United Nations to be legally representative. Facts have also proved this. No, with the withdrawal of the United States and the United Kingdom from the United Nations, the Soviet Union has started playing tricks on United Nations issues.
Due to the ambiguity, the United Nations was immediately suspected of becoming an empty shelf, and its legitimacy was once questioned by international public opinion. At this time, the establishment of the China-Germany-France Alliance was extremely important for maintaining the legitimacy and representativeness of the United Nations.
At this time, the vast majority of countries obviously did not realize the importance of the United Nations. Therefore, when inviting Germany, France, and Soviet Russia to serve as permanent members of the United Nations, except for the Soviet Union, which did not give a clear answer, the Germans and
The French agreed readily.
With Germany and France as the foundation, the two traditional European powers, the legitimacy and authority of the United Nations have suddenly been greatly enhanced, and it has become sufficiently attractive to some European countries and South American countries.
The tragedy of small countries is that they dare not have their own political stance and can only follow the big countries on many major international affairs. Originally, for a period of time after the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and Japan formed an anti-China alliance, because this organization was the largest in the world at that time
The largest economic and military complex, so some countries in Europe and South America have no other choice at all. Even if they do not join immediately, they will verbally express that they will actively consider it.
At this time, the alliance between China, Germany and France is equivalent to at least having an excuse for these countries to refuse to immediately join the anti-China alliance. Regardless of whether they are ready to continue to wait and see or choose to take sides, for the anti-China alliance,
At least it has the effect of weakening its momentum.
Not only that, because when it comes to the war between the Anti-China Alliance and China, the United Nations Secretariat did not take a clear-cut stance on which side it supported, which gave it a camouflage of neutrality. Therefore, it was directed at Chinese-made antibiotics and electronic products.
products, many countries have sent so-called observers to Guangzhou, called "observation". In fact, they are secretly flirting with each other, hoping to sell themselves at a good price in this new round of confrontation of the century.
As early as when China and the United States were fighting in South America, many South American countries sent delegations or observers to the United Nations because they were greedy for China's sales share of pharmaceuticals and electronic products. Now some European countries have also joined these ranks, because these small countries
The total number is estimated to be huge, so although Britain and the United States feel serious dissatisfaction, they do not dare to take sanctions hastily, for fear of completely pushing these countries to China's side.
When India sought independence, the British's process of forming a European anti-China coalition was affected. Now, with the alliance between China, Germany and France, and the United Nations once again showing a certain degree of calling power, the British's wishful thinking has completely failed. Realize that
If China, Germany and France are allowed to continue to win over these small countries, it will make the "anti-China cause" more difficult. When representatives of China, Germany and France held a joint meeting in Berlin, Churchill called Truman and proposed to hold another U.S.-Soviet-British-Japanese summit.
meeting and requested that the meeting be held in London.
Churchill was planning to take practical measures to exert influence on these outsider countries. In his opinion, as long as the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and Japan could unify their posture and show a tough attitude, then those small countries that are naturally close to Britain and the United States would have no choice but to surrender.
Other options - "We must let them know that if something happens to their country, all they can rely on are our neighboring powers!"
