Chapter 1401 China's revenge

No wonder these senior government officials and even some politicians did not miss the situation. They had seen too many emergencies in the process of climbing up, but Wall Street suffered an almost devastating blow, which was completely beyond their imagination.

Banks are gold reserves. Generally speaking, branches have gold, but they are very rare. Tons of gold are usually only placed at the headquarters. The high price of gold makes it the best target for robbery. In order to protect, almost all the bank vaults are placed underground.

A few meters underground, there are high-rise buildings above, and the thick surroundings are all made of steel to form a protective system. Even if the army uses explosives, it will not be easily broken, let alone the gold itself, which is not easy to be destroyed.

But behind a long telegram, Ross described the story in detail. The battleship seemed to have eyes, specifically aiming at the vault locations of major banks. The vaults of banks were uniquely designed. Ordinary bandits sighed at him. Even the army was not easy to deal with. However, this was a battleship. This was the most powerful war weapon made in human history, 15-inch naval guns, super armor-piercing bombs. Even the same battleship could be sunk, let alone the bank vault. Compared with the armor-piercing bomb, it cannot be said to be paper-based. It can only be regarded as a security door, which is more effort.

The most important thing is that Ross mentioned at the end that the other party used two inexplicable incendiary bombs, and even steel could melt. The fire that ignited had completely surrounded Wall Street in New York, and Wall Street was finished.

When the heavy translation of the telegram was completed, no one could say a word, and no one thought it was like this. It was just that the bank vault was attacked, which only represented the loss of gold. However, if the bank vault, steel and building were completely burned, the loss might not be able to be recovered.

Gold, in an independent country, in a country where the right to issue coins represents basic protection and the ability to issue currency. If the operating amount is good, it can even issue 3 times or even 4 times of currency. In the era of the gold standard, only if it is forced to sell gold, most of the gold is reserved and left in the hands of the country. With gold, everything can be stable.

These are all direct losses. Perhaps in the future, searching for ruins or even refining, you can collect a little. With other gold reserves in the United States and private gold, you can barely get through the difficulties. However, Wall Street itself is shrouded in fire, and the losses will be even greater. All financial companies in the United States, accounts receivable, various capital transactions, and even depositors' certificates of deposit have all made large-scale mistakes. If someone forged it at this time, it would be a big problem.

"It cannot be China. China does not have that great strength!" Thomas Reed said angrily. He is the Republican Speaker of Parliament. He has natural conflicts with Wilson. He represents the interests of the big bourgeoisie. He took action against China. It was the parliamentary forces who led the parliament to criticize Wilson's conservative measures in Parliament. After a speech, he determined the overall direction. This is how the feast for Chinese people was opened. If it were not for China's evacuation of overseas Chinese and spending hundreds of millions of dollars, perhaps more than one-third of these tens of millions of Chinese people would die in the United States within one or two years.

"Are the soldiers on the front line blind? The distinctive national flag cannot be seen. In addition, in this world, besides Germany and China, there is another country that can have the emperor level!" the Minister of Navy retorted.

In front, Thomas had too many reasons to refute that the national flag could be fake, and it was not just that they could hang a national flag to blame. The Americans themselves did it. This was the Spanish-American War that year. How could Spain, which was in decline, fight against the United States at its peak? That was just an excuse. But in the back, he could not refute that since Germany had the emperor level, as the greatest enemy and the most threatening weapon, the entire Allied Power has used too much power to evaluate the performance of the emperor level, mainly among the many naval battles participated by the emperor level.

In the era of battleships, as long as you get a few battles, most of the indicators of the battleship will be clear at a glance. This is also the fundamental reason why the levels of battleships are not much different after entering the era of dreadnoughts. As long as you have funds and technology levels, you can keep up with it and know the general size and data of the opponent, you will basically understand the opponent's combat effectiveness.

As the most important warship in Germany, the Emperor-class was valued by Britain and the United States since its appearance. After several battles, it obtained basic data of the emperor-class. Since there was no first-hand data, it was just a rough one. However, the power and firepower were almost understood. The tonnage was almost the same. However, after studying the battleship experts from Britain and the United States, they found that they could not complete it. Even if they did a battle patrol and sacrificed armor, it would be difficult to achieve this speed and firepower. Although Britain and the United States also designed a warship based on this emperor-class, it would be at least 3 years later. This means that the Emperor-class is unique in this world, only Germany owns it, or in a secret shipyard in Asia.

Now the five emperor-class Germans are operating in the Baltic Sea. The huge warships are impossible to fake. They have a small-scale exchange of fire with the Allied Team. So the newly emerging warships are likely to be really Chinese. Before China participated in the war, Britain and the United States suspected that Germany might have transferred technology to China for various reasons. However, no matter how they had a big brain, they could not believe that Germany gave the manufacturing technology of battleships to the Chinese without reservation. Even the transfer between Britain and the United States was only after the United States had basically mastered the technology of battleships.

But now, it is a very ironic fact that the emperor-level is appearing next to New York, which seems to be better than the German emperor-level, otherwise the four ships would not have destroyed the entire Wall Street at all.

More and more information reports come, and everyone has an intuitive view of the losses of Wall Street and New York, but no one can do what to do next.

"We have to keep them?" Thomas said in a bit of anger. At this moment, he knew very well that his political career was over. The culprit was these four main battleships. This was too big. One Ross, even the entire New York military force could not bear it. Among the top leaders, Wilson was the president. He still clearly opposed the previous policies. Even if he blamed him, he would not blame him. He was essential for a top leader who had weight and made mistakes.

Wilson and the senior executives present all turned their attention to the naval commander, naval commander smiled bitterly: "What should we do? Our defense is problematic. All the main battleships have gone to Europe. The remaining warships, even the agglomeration, were not completed during the whole day, and this lost the last chance of attacking the emperor-level level."

In one day, the top leaders of the US political and business management team gathered together for a day. Except for the military issued some pursuit orders, ordering warships on the entire East Coast to gather near New York, and at all costs, they had no other orders. Although they knew it was China's actions, the United States now had no countermeasures. There were tens of millions of Chinese people in the past, and now there was nothing.

Compared with the losses of Wall Street, the funds spent by Chinese and Chinese to evacuate overseas Chinese are not worth mentioning at all. At this moment, they realized China's tolerance and terror. In order to evacuate Chinese, they paid money, but they were not prepared to let the Americans go. When they completed the evacuation of overseas Chinese, they did not swallow as much as they thought, but chose to revenge without hesitation. The revenge came so directly and ruthlessly, and directly attacked New York, the largest city in the United States, and hit it in one fell swoop.

The Chinese can tolerate and retaliate against the United States, but can the Americans do this? In the past, they believed that China had no navy, and even if there were, they were very weak. When the Chinese came, they took out such a powerful killing weapon, battleship, and the same battleship as the emperor-level. Although they didn't know how they crossed a voyage of tens of thousands of miles and finally came to the United States, they knew from this long route that the Chinese were not bad at all in naval battles, which completely overturned the United States' previous inherent views.

Across the entire Pacific Ocean, the United States is not afraid to face China. China has shown the strength of its army and is no match for Russia. The huge Pacific Ocean is like a denouncing, completely blocking the extension of the Chinese team's strength. But now, China can even take out 4 main battleships. As long as there are more than 10 emperor-level ships, under the protection of many other warships, China can already attack and log in at a long distance. At least, it is difficult to defend the Hawaiian Islands and the many islands in the South Pacific.

Once China captures these islands, it will have enough springboards. China's huge construction and construction capabilities have been proven in more than two years. As long as it has the ability to attack from a long ocean, China can send its troops to the islands more easily, and then through construction, it will make the island solid. At that time, the two major powers on both sides of the Pacific may have to fight against each other in the Pacific.

The reason why the United States has brought China into the war is because China, which poses a threat to Russia, is at most active in the Middle East, and has little influence on the overall war situation of the Allied Powers. However, now it seems that China not only has huge pressure on Russia, but also has the ability to attack the United States. Now, it needs to increase investment on the entire West Coast to prevent similar attacks. (To be continued.)
