Portugal has also been wealthy in history. When the Age of Discovery came, Portugal and Spain were like the two front teeth of Europe. They were the first to go to the ocean. Portugal also colonized Brazil. In addition, there were many other countries in Africa and Asia.
Colony, but today Portugal has become a thing of the past.
The Portuguese failed to catch up with the first industrial revolution, and were completely left behind by the second industrial revolution. Moreover, the entire country is only the size of a palm, with a population of several million, and has no sense of existence at all. Now it can only rely on
They are also white people, of the same origin and race as the European and American powers, and they come out to show off and deceive.
In later generations, Japan had nine prime ministers in ten years, and the political situation was unpredictable, and it was already regarded as a political dwarf. At this time, Portugal was much more powerful than Japan, and it was not a problem to change three or four prime ministers a year. By 1926
Afterwards, the military dictator Carmona came to power and became Prime Minister of Portugal.
Portugal has ended the era of the First Republic, and the political situation has tended to be stable. Carmona is a fairly knowledgeable figure. If he wants to stabilize his throne, his first priority is to develop the economy. Portugal's industrial base is weak, and only agriculture is relatively weak. Marine fishing is
It is also very developed, and the wine it produces is also outstanding.
If you want to develop the economy, you must start from your existing advantages. Although Carmona was born in the military, he also served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs and has a clear understanding of the world. Portugal is a small country. If you want to develop the economy, you must expand overseas markets.
But now the world has been divided into systems by the great powers, and little Portugal cannot intervene at all.
Looking at countries all over the world, China has a fast economic development, a large population, and huge market potential. If the market of China can be opened, Portugal will have many benefits. This has been well verified by Macau.
A few years ago, they relied on Macau as a stronghold to carry out trade and made huge profits. However, after Qiao Yu came to power, China's sovereignty was taken back, and cities such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Tianjin expanded rapidly, including Dalian and Qingdao.
Lianyungang, Fuzhou, Xiamen and other places are also fast-developing and small Hong Kong. How can Macau compete with these areas?
In addition, Qiao Yu also deliberately blocked restrictions, which made Portugal get less and less benefits from Macau, and gradually turned it into a piece of useless food.
Faced with this situation, Carmona felt that he might as well hand over Macau to China, in exchange for China's favor, and to obtain better conditions for Portugal's economic development. In addition, Carmona was frightened by the fact that
China's military power continues to grow, and now a war is breaking out in Vietnam. If there is no shadow of China's behind this, no one will believe it. They are not even afraid of France, and their little Portugal can still be regarded as a dish!
Qiao Yu's original plan was to attack the French first, then take back Guangzhou Bay, then drive away the British, take back Hong Kong, and then Macau would be ready. Unexpectedly, the Portuguese actually came to the door, which saved a lot of trouble. Qiao Yu
Yu didn't take Portugal seriously and just sent Gu Weijun to negotiate with the other party. Qiao Yu just demanded that Macau's sovereignty be taken back as soon as possible!
Negotiation is only one aspect. In this era, the key depends on the fist. Whoever has the bigger fist will be justified, and Vietnam is the best place for China to show its power. At this time, Qiong Ya in Vietnam has been reduced to a pot of porridge.
.
The French army and the Vietnamese army totaled more than 20,000 people. Under the cover of more than 40 aircraft, they burned, killed, and looted all the way to Qiongya. However, they did not encounter any resistance along the way. The French commander also
I came up with the idea of underestimating the enemy, thinking that the Vietnamese guerrillas could only fight coldly and did not dare to confront the regular army head-on.
Therefore, he gathered more than 20 tanks and a regiment of soldiers to clear the way in front, and rushed directly towards Qiong Ya. Of course, what he didn't know was that there were more than 2,000 Vietnamese guerrillas ambushing in the dense forest on the roadside.
Elite force, the military uniforms worn by these soldiers are colorful and messy.
This is not because the Vietnamese army does not have good military uniforms. This is the first camouflage uniform produced by China. In addition, they also carry 20 anti-tank guns and a considerable number of anti-aircraft machine guns. These are the latest camouflage uniforms produced by China.
The weapons developed were sent to the Vietnam battlefield to test their combat capabilities and to deal with the French armor. Without destroying these tanks, it would be difficult for the Vietnamese to win.
This time, the artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns were covered by a large number of camouflage nets of tree branches. Coupled with the cover of the dense forest, although the French sent the air force several times for reconnaissance, they still did not find these enemies who had been ambushing them for a long time.
At this time, Lu Yuguang was also personally commanding the battle on the sniper position. Since Lu Rongting's death, Lu Yuguang had to rely on himself for everything. The Vietnam battlefield was his best chance to become famous in the world. He must not lose. Only a hearty victory would win.
It can reassure the underprivileged father that his son has become an upright man, and he no longer needs to worry!
They have been hiding here for two days. Because there are French planes in the sky for reconnaissance, they are basically unable to move. The hot and humid jungles of Vietnam are full of nasty mosquitoes, blood-sucking locusts, and even venomous snakes.
It is definitely a huge test for the human spirit. Half of Lu Yuguang's body has become numb.
At this moment, an old-fashioned biplane flew over the sky, and soon there were roaring sounds from the ground. It was the vibration caused by the advancing tanks. Lu Yuguang knew clearly that this was the French
The leading troops came over and hurriedly ordered all the soldiers to prepare for battle.
As time passed, the French gradually approached the position. They still used two special tanks equipped with rotating shafts to open the way. Huge iron chains hit the ground, kicking up bursts of dust, making the sky dark and the ground dark.
Just when the French forward tanks were less than one thousand meters away from the position, the anti-tank gun on the position fired first. This anti-tank gun has a caliber of only 20 millimeters, but its power is not bad at all. At 1,500 meters,
Within the range, it can easily penetrate 15 mm of armor, with an initial speed of 3 meters per second, a rate of fire of 300 rounds per minute, and excellent accuracy.
Moreover, this kind of anti-tank gun is dual-purpose, and can also deal with aerial targets flying in the ground and in the air. The high-speed and hot shells hit the French tank head-on. The light tank with only a dozen tons could not withstand the power of the anti-tank gun.
, the armor on the front was blown to pieces in an instant, and the tank crew instantly turned into a pile of rotten flesh.
Not only anti-tank guns, but also large-caliber machine guns can bring huge power to these weak French tanks. The French tanks were damaged one after another. The sound of explosions was endless, and the flames shot up into the sky.
The entire forward force seemed to have entered hell.
The French soldiers who were originally showing off their power were also stunned by the head-on attack. They never imagined that there would be enemies in these woods that had been repeatedly scouted. Moreover, these enemies actually possessed such ferocious firepower. The French commander had no choice but to order the troops to stand aside.
Fight back and request air force support.
Let the plane carry bombs and blow up all the woods in front of you. In just ten minutes of exchange of fire, nearly twenty tanks were beaten into scrap. The results were remarkable. The power of the anti-tank gun was indeed good, and it was even more powerful.
The scary thing is that once these shells hit a person's body, it becomes even more terrifying.
Steel can't stop the shells, and there is even less flesh and blood. Once hit, some people will immediately turn into a ball of flesh and blood, and some people will be cut into two pieces, with blood and internal organs all over the floor, as if they are in a slaughterhouse.
, the pungent smell made people uncontrollably nauseated. Most of these French soldiers had not experienced the test of World War I. Faced with such a bloody battle, they seemed to be a little unbearable at first.
At this time, the French planes finally arrived. These planes were also old models from World War I. Their flying speed did not exceed 3 kilometers, and they all had wooden fuselages. They flew unsteadily over the sniper position.
Suddenly, several tongues of fire shot out from the woods, as if the devil in hell had sprouted countless arms.
As long as Mi was caught, he would not be able to escape death. The planes heading towards him were hit and instantly turned into big matches. The pilots and the planes perished together in the sky. When other pilots saw that the situation was not good, they immediately improved their flight speed.
He dropped the bomb in a hurry and flew away.
Eight planes were smashed into pieces in one encounter. Facing the poor performance of the air force, the French commander became increasingly angry. He had to ask the artillery in the rear to step up operations and prepare to use heavy artillery to destroy the opponent. However, on the narrow road,
It is not easy to mobilize heavy equipment, and the vanguard troops are suffering huge casualties every moment. The tanks are blown up and the soldiers are wiped out like wormwood.
It took nearly an hour for the artillery to be mobilized. Countless shells fell into the forest, and the fire burned quickly, constantly devouring everything. At this time, Lu Yuguang had already commanded the army to begin a rapid retreat. Their mission
It was to eliminate the forward armored forces. This time, more than twenty French tanks were destroyed, and more than a dozen aircraft were shot down. The results were already very good.
As long as the most threatening things like the French army are eliminated, the rest will be left to the French and Vietnamese to fight. Lu Yuguang knows very well that the highest level of China is not at ease with the Vietnamese, and they are not willing to see it.
The Vietnamese have grown stronger, so it is undoubtedly the best choice to make both sides suffer losses.
Lu Yuguang and his men withdrew from the position. The French were finally able to advance again, but everyone felt a little uneasy. As long as they crossed the Tuojiang River, they could reach Qiongya, and what would greet them would most likely be even more tragic.
In the battle, the equipment of the Vietnamese guerrillas was much better than imagined.
However, the French have no retreat now. They are still the world's largest army power. If they easily retreat in front of the guerrillas, how can they dominate the world? They are still charging forward, but they are more cautious. After arriving at the Tuojiang River, France
The people first bombarded the other side without hesitation. After confirming that there were no enemies, they built a pontoon bridge and crossed the rushing Tuojiang River. The army advanced into Qiongya.
Just after the French army entered Qiongya, Vietnamese guerrillas also appeared in large numbers around the French army. The number far exceeded the French's estimate. They pressed against the French from three sides. The thin Vietnamese took advantage of the French
Before they could gain a foothold, they launched an offensive. The sound of guns and artillery could not be heard. The French were also well-trained. They quickly adjusted their status and took advantage of the terrain around Qiong Ya to start shooting at the Vietnamese.
As soon as the war started, it showed its bloody side. The intensive firepower caused the effective strength of both sides to decrease rapidly. It was destined to be the most tragic war from the beginning!
