Chapter 1346 Balkan War

On November 9, U.S. President Hillary Clinton returned to Washington after completing her visit to Japan, the United Kingdom and other countries. The U.S. President’s visit achieved certain results. Japan and the United Kingdom both expressed their firm support for the United States’ support for the new European Union.

After receiving economic assistance from the United States and releasing military and technology export restrictions, India stated that it would impose partial trade sanctions on the new European Union. However, India does not have anything to sanction. At most, it is on software exports.

To make some fuss, even the United States does not have much hope, and only regards India as a sign of solidarity. However, Brazil, Argentina, Nigeria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and other countries have stated that they will not impose trade sanctions on the new European Union, but they will not trade with the new European Union.

The United States is in a dilemma. In fact, these countries are not willing to offend these two parties but want to get more benefits from the conflict between Europe and the United States.

But to the great disappointment of the Americans, Brazil and Argentina, two traditional backyard countries, also refused to help the United States jointly sanction the new European Union. This was something the US president never expected. In fact, by the end of the 20th century, Brazil

It already wanted to get rid of the control of the United States. At that time, Brazil was already a relatively developed country in the third world, and its development speed was second only to China. However, the two financial crises that broke out in 1997 and 1999 made Brazil lose its luster.

Both suffered huge losses, and the United States was closely involved in both financial crises. However, after the financial crisis, the United States refused a large amount of aid to Brazil, so Brazil has been secretly dissatisfied with the United States. Now the strength of the United States

It has been greatly weakened, and now it is fighting a trade war with the new European Union. Of course, Brazil will not be stupid enough to help the United States, and it will be criticized by the new European Union. Not to mention Argentina,

In the Falklands War in 1982, if it weren't for the support of the United States, Britain would not have the courage to fight this war. So from that time on, Argentina has held a grudge against the United States. The last time the energy group fought against the Americans in Argentina, it was also

There are a lot of injuries. It is a good thing not to add insult to injury to the United States this time and to join the new European Union to fight against the United States.

On November 10, Chinese Head of State Wang Lieying arrived in Rome and began an official visit to Italy. China and Italy signed a number of contracts, including ordered large transport ships. Energy groups have also invested up to 50 billion euros in Italy.

, created tens of thousands of jobs, and Italy's economy, which had begun to shrink, immediately improved after receiving investment from the energy group, and stock markets in Rome, Milan and other places immediately rose. Italian Prime Minister Bernusconi expressed his gratitude to China

Huge praise for helping the new European Union survive the crisis.

On November 13, Chinese Head of State Wang Lieying arrived in Paris, the last stop of this trip. Since the French President has already paid an official visit to China, this time China and France mainly focused on the implementation of the signed contract, which also gave France

The economy has gained a lot of momentum.

On November 15, China, France, Germany, Italy and other major national leaders of the New European Union issued a joint statement in Paris that shocked the world. China will work with the New European Union to impose trade and economic sanctions on the United States. This statement was immediately

The economy of the United States, which has improved after receiving guarantees from Japan and the United Kingdom, has declined again. The sales market for a large number of American technology products is in China, and a large number of American companies have opened factories in China. If China imposes sanctions on the United States

If so, the impact on the U.S. economy will definitely be much greater than the sanctions imposed by the new European Union on the United States. China was already the second largest trading partner of the United States in 2008, although the Taiwan War that broke out in 2009 and the second North Korea

The war caused stagnation and regression in the economic and trade exchanges between China and the United States. However, after the war in 2010, the United States knew that the huge market that China had emerged was necessary for the development of the United States, so the relationship between China and the United States returned to normal in 2011.

trade relations. In order to seize the Chinese market, major American companies have also increased their investment in China and started factories directly in China. Now China has basically become a large global factory.

In 2010, the number of college students in China has reached the highest level in the world. China has provided high-quality labor for large companies around the world, and its labor cost is relatively the lowest. Therefore, China has used these advantages to establish its own

status in the world. Although the appreciation of the RMB during the economic crisis has had a negative impact on improving China's international competitiveness, the accompanying increase in domestic consumption levels has greatly expanded China's market absorption capacity. Now China

China's market consumption has surpassed that of the United States and has become the world's largest market consumer country. All this marks the importance of China in the world economy. And China has begun to impose economic and trade sanctions on the United States, which is equivalent to locking up American companies.

Outside the door of China's huge market, China's active cooperation with the new European Union countries has also allowed the new European Union countries to invest more in China. Companies from the new European Union countries will definitely replace American companies in China.

This is the last thing the United States wants to see, so it is also the biggest blow to the U.S. economy. Because China’s economic and trade sanctions on the United States have such a great impact, the other treaty signed by China and the New European Union has not received much attention.

, but the impact of this treaty on future generations is far greater than the sanctions on the United States. It is the free trade agreement between China and the New European Union. China and the New European Union will reduce trade barriers between the two sides within 5 years and realize free trade between the two major economic entities.

.This is the official start of the China-Europe Alliance for Future Generations, which is extremely important for strengthening the connection between China and Europe and the complementary advantages between the two.

On November 16, Chinese Head of State Wang Lieying returned to Beijing after completing his visit to four European countries. The results of this foreign visit conducted by the heads of state of China and the United States at almost the same time were incomparable. Although the United States has achieved Japan

, the United Kingdom and India (partially) supported it, but Japan and the United Kingdom are now in an extremely serious economic crisis. After the war between Taiwan and Korea, China's anti-Japanese sentiment reached its highest point. After China defeated Japan

Later, the people also gave up their pursuit of Japan. Now Japanese products are basically completely excluded from the Chinese market. Japanese companies have experienced crises because they have lost the Chinese market, and Japan will have to bear a large number of wars.

The reparations have added insult to Japan's already sluggish economy. Japan's overall economic strength was surpassed by China in 2011, and now Japan is only the third largest economic power. According to the current trend, in 2015,

Japan's economy will be overtaken by Germany and France. So the sun is about to set in Japan, and no one is optimistic about it. Britain is no longer in need. As a European country, Britain helps the United States in dealing with European countries.

The new European Union as the core has caused great resentment within Europe, and some radical organizations have also called for the UK to be expelled from Europe and not recognized as a European country.

The British economy has not improved due to wars, war reparations, and too many obligations in the new NATO defense allocation plan established by the United States. Britain's position in the world is not as good as Japan's. And India has even less capabilities.

to help the United States deal with the New European Union and China. India is now confronting Pakistan in Kashmir, and both sides seem to be fighting the fourth India-Pakistan war. And India and China still have unresolved territorial disputes, so

China's attitude towards India has never been so friendly. In order to engage in an arms race with Pakistan, India's population has now reached 1.4 billion, which is close to surpassing China. However, the country's economic scale is less than 1/3 of China's, and India's annual

One-third of the national budget is spent on military expenditures, accounting for more than 20% of the gross national product. India today can only be described in one word, that is, poor. Although India can make the best software in the world,

However, it cannot meet the people's needs for food. It is simply a deformed country. Therefore, India's commitment to the United States does not even matter to the United States. And India also obtained assistance from the United States through this opportunity, especially in the military field, and gained the advanced technology it has always dreamed of.

Technology. Later, the United States felt that it was cheating when it asked India for help, as if it was still helping India in the end. The harvest of China's diplomatic activities was different. It not only gained economic benefits from the new European Union with Russia.

The results of cooperation have basically established the prototype of a tripartite alliance. This is what all anti-American countries hope to see. The cooperation between China, Russia and Europe (the New European Alliance) has broken the pattern of the United States dominating the world, and the world has entered a battle for hegemony and strong power.

The era of strong alliances!

Energy groups are actually not very satisfied with such a world. If they are all small countries, they may have their own interests, but if they are united, they will have to think carefully if they want to bully others. However, the reason why Europe follows

Cooperation with China actually means seeing clearly that behind China are energy groups. If China were the only one, they would not have the guts to do this with the Americans.

On December 1, the Russian President also announced during his visit to Berlin that Russia would work with the New European Union to impose economic and trade sanctions on the United States. Russia's voice was obviously not as loud as China's, and the world did not react much, because although Russia was in the midst of an economic crisis,

China's large arms orders have basically stopped the economic decline. However, after the war between Taiwan and Korea, China no longer needs so many arms orders. If India had not sent a large amount of foreign exchange at this time, Russia's military industry enterprises

It is facing the danger of shutdown. Moreover, Russia's overall economic strength is not at the same level as that of China and the New European Union. It can only be regarded as a second-rate economic power. However, Russia's joining has also virtually increased the confidence of the New European Union. After all, Russia

It is also a political and military power.

On December 15, Belgium, Luxembourg, Albania, and Yugoslavia joined the New European Union. Now among the Central and Western European countries, only the United Kingdom, Spain, Poland, Switzerland, Sweden, and Finland are non-New European Union countries, and Switzerland, Sweden, and Finland are all

declared to be a permanent neutral country, so they will not join any country group. The only European countries that the United States can still control (other than the countries in the former Soviet Union) are the United Kingdom, Spain, and Poland. NATO also

Already exist in name only.

On January 5, after the New Year, Poland requested to join the new European Union due to Russia's expansion. Poland, one of the countries that most firmly supports NATO, has now withdrawn from NATO, indicating that the disintegration of NATO is no longer inevitable.

On January 14, the NATO headquarters, which moved its headquarters to London, announced the dissolution of NATO. However, the United States guaranteed that it would continue to provide nuclear protection to the original NATO countries. But this could no longer save the United States' failure in Europe. The dissolution of NATO marked the completion of the world structure.

With the transformation, countries around the world have begun to consider where they will go. The Earth's Spring and Autumn Era has officially arrived, the integration of nations and the merger of countries will officially begin, and an era of creating heroes has arrived.

On March 20, after two months of melancholy, Spain announced that it would join the New European Union. The New Europe has basically completed its tasks, and the spring of Europe has arrived.

On May 7, the United Kingdom rejected invitations from most European countries and joined the new North American Free Economic and Trade Cooperation Organization, led by the United States. This was also the beginning of the United Kingdom's official departure from Europe and joining the ranks of the United States.

On November 23, the New European Alliance completed its military adjustment. The newly established New European Alliance Army included 2.45 million soldiers from various countries, including 400,000 from France, 450,000 from Germany, 350,000 from Italy, 300,000 from Spain, Poland, and the Netherlands.

, Greece, Norway, and Portugal each have 100,000 troops, Romania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Albania, and Ireland each have 50,000 troops. Among them, the Army has 700,000 troops, divided into 5 legions, stationed in Warsaw and Bucharest in the east.

Rome, Athens, Madrid in the south, Paris, Amsterdam in the west, Oslo, Copenhagen in the north, Berlin, Vienna and other places in the center. It has 12,000 main battle tanks, mainly "Leopard" 2a7 and "Leclerc" 2.

There are 14,000 armored vehicles, 21,000 artillery pieces, including more than 2,000 rocket launchers, more than 5,000 launchers for anti-aircraft missiles, more than 12,000 anti-aircraft guns, and more than 3,000 short-range surface-to-surface missiles. The air force is 550,000, with more than 40 air force bases and more than 4,000 fighter jets.

Among them, there are more than 1,200 "Rafale" and "Typhoon", and the others are basically former NATO fighter jets. The navy has 650,000, and has 4 aircraft carriers, including 2 medium-sized nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, 2 light aircraft carriers, and 45 destroyers.

, 67 frigates, 80 submarines, including 5 "Triumph" class strategic nuclear submarines (3 more are under construction), 8 attack nuclear submarines, and 24 AIP conventional submarines. The naval aviation force has more than 800 combat aircraft, including

There are 140 carrier-based fixed-wing fighter jets and more than 400 shore-based fixed-wing aircraft. The Marine Corps has 300,000 troops, more than 2,000 tanks, more than 1,400 amphibious combat vehicles, more than 30 large transport ships, and 4 amphibious assault ships.

This newly formed army is already one of the most powerful armies in the world in terms of scale and quality. It ranks third in terms of quantity (China is first and Japan is second. Now Japan is preparing for war and the number of troops has been increasing.

) is more than the 2.1 million in the United States and the 1.9 million in Russia. However, this force still needs time to hone, and the new organization and new equipment cannot meet the requirements. Currently, less than 40% of the force has combat effectiveness.

, others are undergoing adaptive training, and it will take at least 10 years to uniformly replace them with new equipment to form combat effectiveness. This is also a shortcoming of the new European Union's military. This also limits the future development of the New European Union.

.

The military of the new European Union officially began to replace the original armies of various countries and began to assume the security and defense tasks of the new European Union countries.

After the military mechanism of the new European Union has been put into operation and has withstood the test, the new European Union announced the beginning of the political integration process. Political integration is more difficult than integration in any aspect, because it includes national reconciliation, national reconciliation, and national reconciliation.

Disputes, regional culture, humanities and customs, and the distribution of political interests. In the process of political integration, the new European Union encounters huge difficulties, but there has already been great inter-ethnic mobility brought about by economic integration.

It is related to integration and regional economy, and after military integration, political problems have been partially solved. Despite various advantages, European political integration has not progressed smoothly. The entire political integration has cost nearly

In 10 years, the unification of Europe will not be completed until a unified European country is established on January 1, 2023, and the European Federal Republic is established. In these 10 years, Europe has wasted too much time, so this is also the future development of Europe.

The fundamental reason for its limitations. But the role of a unified Europe on the world stage cannot be underestimated.

A dozen months later, the United States announced the lifting of economic and trade sanctions against the New European Union, and the two-year and two-month trade war between Europe and the United States officially declared an end. Because the United States can no longer prevent the rise of the New Europe, and its domestic

The economic environment and conditions do not allow the trade war to continue. However, the United States has lost too much in the economic and trade war for two years and two months. Subsequently, the new European Union, as well as China, Russia, Japan, and the United Kingdom

, India and other countries have announced the end of the trade war, and the world economy finally got a chance to slow down.

The Energy Group is a pure economy. Such trade is not allowed by them. In terms of time, it has curbed the development of the Energy Group in two years. In these two years, Li Cong has also been improving his military configuration.

, Li Cong spent nearly 800 billion US dollars in two years, in exchange for training one million troops into an elite division, and Li Cong also established a strategic transport team of up to 400 large aircraft.

It can transport tens of thousands of troops to all parts of the world in batches, with a daily transportation volume of tens of thousands. This is something that other military organizations around the world cannot do. It can be said that in this aspect, Li Cong's military power is from one aspect

It is said to be the strongest in the world.

On October 25, the development of the new European Union was on the right track. On this day, armed conflict broke out again between Yugoslavia and Croatia in the Balkan Peninsula, known as the powder keg of Europe. Although until the end, the entire scope of the conflict was under control.

Within the region, it did not spread to neighboring countries. However, it was unbearable for a regional war to break out in Europe at this time. This is one of the reasons why Europe took nearly 10 years to complete unification and sort out its internal conflicts. This is

It also reflects that in a multi-ethnic place like Europe, it is very difficult to unify. But a non-unified Europe has no way out when the world is undergoing major changes. This is the pain before the emergence of a new Europe.

Yugoslavia and Croatia originally belonged to the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, but during the great changes in Eastern Europe in the 20s, Yugoslavia was split into five independent countries: Yugoslavia, Croatia, Macedonia, Slovenia, and Bosnia. From here on

The conflict between these countries, especially the conflict between Yugoslavia and Croatia. In 1999, the United States bombed Yugoslavia. During more than 90 days of bombing, Yugoslavia's economy basically collapsed. Croatia secretly supported the United States' military attack on Yugoslavia.

, which also made the hatred between the two countries more swollen. The conflict was triggered by a confrontation between two border patrol teams in South Africa.

On October 26, both South Korea and Croatia assembled a large number of troops in the border areas between the two countries and shelled each other. This small conflict originally caused by patrols was heading towards a full-scale war between the two countries. Originally, South Korea and Croatia

Peacekeeping troops, mainly American soldiers, are stationed on the Croatian border. However, the outbreak of the Taiwan-Korea War in 2009 and the subsequent global economic crisis have made it impossible for the United States to retain troops to conduct peacekeeping operations here. The original plan was to have European troops stationed there.
