"It's OK, it's impossible for the foreigners to delay the war this time."

The sound of gunfires sounded from Morocco came. Yang Hao, who had been holding on the ship for a long time, breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the fleet to set sail and leave and return to China.

The main force of the visiting fleet, which originally cruised on the Atlantic Ocean, also headed south again and entered the Pacific Ocean through the Panama Canal. However, before returning to China, they would also take a walk to California on the west coast to comfort the overseas Chinese there.

By the way, the Panama Canal in this time and space was dug, because China provided money and technology, and it was opened to navigation seven or eight years in advance, and the time was only a little later than the Suez Canal.

Of course, Americans would not be stupid enough to give up this strategic location, but they would not reject the funds and technology from China. On the premise of ensuring that control does not fall, Americans would happily accept the result that the canal could be built early.

But they never thought that there were traps here.

The Chinese visiting fleet that had been wandering around the world drove into the canal channel. Sa Zhenbing visually measured from the left and right on the deck and found that the width was a bit narrower than expected. Compared with the 30.3-meter-wide width of the "Hebei-class" battleship, it was almost the limit of safe passage.

He suddenly remembered some rumors and asked casually.

Yang Hao replied frankly: "Yes, when we designed the canal channel, we actually discovered the problem. The foreign devils never thought how big the ships would be in the future, so they were too conservative in the design of the locks. This led to the ships that can be passed by, with our "Guangxi Class" as the limit. If they are too big, they can't get through at all."

The maximum width of the "Guangxi-class" battleship is 32.54 meters, while the design indicators of the Panama Canal are 32.61 meters. The largest ship that can be passed through is the "North Carolina-class" battleship designed by the Americans later. The "Iowa-class battleship" that shines brightly in the middle and late stages of World War II is even smaller in shape.

This is the limit of navigation in the Panama Canal, so that the "Montana-class battleship" designed and built by the Americans could not get over it.

Of course, China, where time travelers are in power, will certainly not be aware of such a shortcoming problem. But the great head of state Yang Hao did not remind the Americans that the reason was that Americans were unhappy to share this back garden. For their own interests and security, they did not want to share any other benefits except for barely accepting some Chinese funds and sharing the investment risks.

In this way, China naturally has no obligation to help them avoid risks.

Sa Zhenbing never thought that one day, China might come to invade the North American continent. He couldn't help but sigh regretfully: "In this way, after our aircraft carriers and large cargo ships are built in the future, it will be difficult to pass through Panama. Is this a little more than worth the effort?"

If you know the problem, you don’t remind me. If you dig a hole, you may even bury your own home. This is not cost-effective!

Yang Hao smiled and replied: "It doesn't matter. For a while, our large ships may not be able to sail to the southeastern waters of the United States. This also has an advantage. When we launch a strategy for the West Coast, it is not so easy for the Americans to support them through maritime."

Sa Zhenbing took a breath and realized that he might have heard something amazing!

Strategies to the West Coast? Wouldn't that mean that China is very likely to use troops against the United States? In the least, it will also launch an attack on its western region. At that time, the Panama Canal, which is not wide enough, will the warships coming will inevitably be greatly restricted. The lack of peers' ability means that the overall combat effectiveness will decline. How long will this game be played?

Yang Hao did not explain.

In fact, this is just a strategic plan to prevent problems before they happen. Whether China will launch a war against the United States is not very certain. From the perspective of planning ahead, they did not remind the Americans that it was right. Because it was necessary to promote the early navigation of the canal and obtain sufficient benefits. Once a plan was proposed to be changed and redesigned, it was not known that it would be delayed until the year of the monkey and horse month.

By then, it will be difficult for China to gain benefits from it. Americans may have other ideas.

The topic stopped and did not go deeper. However, Sa Zhenbing felt a little heavier in his heart. He focused on observing the situation on both sides of the canal and on both sides, and paid attention to collecting various relevant information. He had a vague premonition that in his lifetime, he would most likely lead the fleet to launch a war with the Americans!

But they didn't know that after the news spread across the world that the Chinese fleet safely passed through the Panama Canal and arrived on the west coast of the United States, European powers and Americans all breathed a sigh of relief. Even the Germans were privately glad that these guys finally left.

It sounds a bit incredible. Why do Germans who have gained benefits think so?

In fact, it is very simple. The Chinese government came to Europe to make trouble and make trouble, and it is not difficult to guess the sinister intentions. The Germans can also see that they are clearly deliberately aggravating conflicts between European countries, promoting their deterioration speed, and even provoking wars. In short, they are just a mess-up character.

But I knew it, but I couldn't stop it.

To this day, China is qualified and capable of becoming a heavyweight chess player, competing on the international trend. No matter how strong European countries are, they cannot refuse this villain who has forcibly entered. They cannot unite and go to the outside world, and can only try to seek the greatest benefit to themselves.

The situation was clear, and I could not help but watch as China, a super gangster who took advantage of the situation, came in.

The reason why the war in Morocco broke out was that the Germans were put on the stage and could not stop. If they compromised and tolerated, it would not be as simple as losing this colony. German Emperor William II could face the danger of being deposed!

To be precise, it was the German Junker nobles and the elite power that pursued expansionism that were used by the Chinese. Their ambitious plan to "defeat France" in the entire upper class has reached a point where they cannot turn back. Whether the shot of Morocco fired or not can change the final result at all.

China has played a catalyst, and its intentions are extremely sinister, but the Germans have to accept it.

The British and French intelligence departments were very well-informed. It was not too late to learn that China would help Germany strengthen its armed forces, but they did not provide timely responses. When the internal quarrel ended, the German freighter departing from China had already quietly sent enough equipment for 300,000 troops to Germany!

This is why Morocco fights so simply.

With China's 300,000 army equipment, Germany was able to approach the number of infantry divisions required in the "Schriefen Plan". Although the specific deployment was not exactly according to Schriefen's design, the main force was concentrated on the right hook, and he still firmly followed the trajectory of history and embarked on the old path.

Yang Hao knew about this, but he did not intend to intervene and influence it. In addition, he could not influence it either.

A large number of research data in later generations proved that Moltke actually strictly implemented Schriefen's plan, but the situation he faced was completely different from when he made the plan. Not to mention, the huge changes in weapons, equipment and tactics would cause completely different directions in the form of war. Not to mention, World War I happened to be the most intense and rapid period of human military changes.

The little Moltke insisted on working with a sick body, and the hot-headed mind of the German upper class brought even more tremendous pressure.

In October 1909, when the Moroccan conflict reached the point of war resolution, the French had already regretted it, but they had no way out. The formation of the three-way alliance was not a joke, and they could not see the aggressive posture of the Germans on the other side. If this battle was surrendered, the consequences would probably be unimaginable!

The British didn't want Germany to win too easily. They knew very well that these guys were unreasonable. The expansion ambitions of the German upper class were on the surface. Once they tasted the sweetness, no one could stop the crazy wild beast that was released from the cage.

At the end of his thoughts, the British cursed: "Damn Chinese, it's all their fault for making trouble in it!"

If the Chinese Navy had not appeared in the Moroccan waters at a critical moment, Germany might not have been so determined to fight in close combat!

This link is tied to one link, and the cooperation is intimate. If there are still people who believe that China's global defense is for the purpose of peace, it would be hopeless.

Now, the British also know that they are cheating on the Chinese people. Not only did they use the failure of the Royal Navy of the British Empire to provide a solid stepping stone for the Chinese Navy to make a name for themselves, but they also saw the essence of the decline due to the loss of control over the European conflict.

This is very unfavorable for the UK to maintain its global hegemony!

Of course, the British are not easy to mess with. For many years, they have been bullying others and making money, but never willing to suffer losses. This time, they have inexplicably given the Chinese people a trick, and of course they have to make up for it without hesitation.

The relatively weak Liberal government has not yet come up with feasible opinions. They always worry too much and cannot see the focus clearly.

The Conservative elites quickly gave a resolution proposal: "China secretly strengthened the German military power. We will provide more support to the Russians and let them fight to the death!"

This move is sinister and vicious!

As we all know, Tsarist Russia is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and its economic situation is in a mess. The nominal army of six million is actually only three million people who can fully equipped the weapons to survive, and it has not yet achieved new equipment or meet the standards of Britain, France and Germany.

Many Russian army soldiers wear clothes and cannot eat enough. They usually train with wooden sticks that help the daggers and short swords to make up for the number. It is no different from sending people to the battle.

However, it is recognized that the Russians are hard-working. With a little bit of supplies, these gray animals can turn them into relatively qualified cannon fodder.

The British plan was based on this. When Russia was at a loss in the face of the Far East crisis, it quietly sent firearms and ammunition enough to equip 200,000 army soldiers, plus a series of artillery replaced in the last century, filled several ships and sent them to the Russian port.

St. Petersburg.

Tsar Nicholas II personally received the escort of weapons and equipment, and served as the special envoy to convey the decisions of the British government, Navy Secretary Winston Churchill.

The Tsar first gave a gorgeous thank-you speech to the British, and then he enthusiastically inspected the precious support weapons himself.

Take out a rifle from the box that was casually opened, and he found that it was a very familiar old Enfield rifle that used 10 round magazines to supply ammunition. Judging from the production logo that is still clearly visible after the gun body is worn, it is clearly from China.

This immediately reminded Nicholas II of the time that more than ten years ago, the head of state of China's unscrupulous businessman had personally led an arms blackmail. At that time, Russia did not resist the temptation and bought 50,000 Mosinnagan rifles. The British bought a total of 100,000 Enfield, which had these ten round magazines.

Now, the British actually gave this kind of old man who had been using it for more than ten years to Russia as a gift. Is this bullying me?

His Majesty's face suddenly became unfavorable. He suppressed his anger and pulled the bolt to see the wear of the gun chamber. He unexpectedly found that it was quite good! The British seemed to have not used it much, and the wear was not serious.

This was barely acceptable. His spirit was a little more relaxed, and he shook his rifle at Churchill and asked, "Mr. Churchill, this is probably not a new creation, right?"

Churchill replied very poorly: "Your Majesty, our country has not prepared enough before and cannot produce enough weapons urgently. Therefore, in order to support your country's front-line war, we have allocated weapons from the arms warehouse. Although it doesn't look so new, it must be admitted that the quality of Chinese products is still very good. The performance of these guns is as reassuring as the new ones."

He had no nerve to say directly that the quality of these guns was actually better than the British produced themselves.

When Yang Hao sold arms, he didn't think too much about it. As a result, the guns and cannons sold to foreigners all used were from guns and cannons in the 21st century. The industrial level is more than a hundred years away, and you can imagine how big the difference between the quality and disadvantages of steel is.

The British imitated it themselves, and they are simply not as good as that.

Therefore, in fact, this batch of weapons is cherished and used in various countries as good things.

The reason why support for Russia was brought out this time was because of the war environment in the Far East. It was extremely cold in winter, and the guns and cannons produced by the British were unreliable, and the probability of failure was extremely high. It was not as reliable as those old Chinese products.

In this way, they are actually kind-hearted.

Of course, a person as stubborn and conceited as Churchill would never admit that the quality of British goods was not good. He could only explain it in such a tactful way.

However, Nicholas II himself was not stupid. After confirming that the performance and quality of the entire batch of weapons were similar to that, he couldn't help but be happy and said to Churchill: "Thank you very much for the help of the British allies. We will make full use of these batches of weapons and let the Chinese taste the consequences of angering us!"

Churchill nodded with relief: "I also want to see how ugly Chinese people look when they are hit by the weapons they make."

Half a month later, the batch of weapons was transported to the Far East Front.

As the cold winter fell, another large-scale attack planned by the Russians officially launched. (.)
