Red Alert 1895: Chapter 487 I still know you in a vest Part 2

Soon, the British didn't declare war on Taiwan, and their mother didn't declare war on China's so-called central government, the Qing Dynasty, they just let it go. Moreover, the British consul also threatened, meaning that since those people are "volunteers", there is nothing to worry about for Taiwan, and they are just volunteers. And although everyone knew what was going on, everyone regarded her as a "volunteer army" instead of a regular army, and both sides were let alone here. The reason why the British are like this is actually because he despises the Boers very much. He thinks that the Boers can't last long. What a formidable army. So the British decided to deal with the Boers first, and then Taiwan. However, they didn't know that in a year or two, Taiwan would not be something he could easily deal with.

"There are two big countries. When they intervene in a small country's civil war, one party wears the vest of the United Nations. The so-called United Nations means that many countries are united. Then their duty is to maintain peace. They use They interfere in their government in the name of maintaining peace. However, they are formed with the army of Great Power B as the main body, and the armies of other countries are just a foil. But they are a joint army, which makes many people feel that It can no longer be an aggression by one country."

"As for the big country A on the other hand, they don't send regular troops to help in the battle, so they use the name of the volunteer army to fight. It seems that they are volunteering to help the small country fight. In this way, the two big countries are actually fighting directly. , but everyone has put on vests. One side is using the vest of the United Army, while the other is using the vest of the Volunteer Army, so that both sides look like there is no war between the two great powers.”

"You can think about it. If there is a war between two big countries, it will also involve big country A's friend, big country C, and that big country B will also involve its hard-core ally, big country D. Then. A series of small countries They will also be dragged into the water, and such a war sweeping the whole world will break out. At that time, no matter whether it is the big country C or the big country D, they don’t want to be involved in this kind of shit. And the big country A and the big country B, they also know I don't want to fight directly, at least not in the name of each country. As long as there is no war between the two sides, it will not become the fuse of a world war, and the war will be limited within the scope of that small country and will not cause World War."

Wang Guorui explained to everyone the incident of China's resistance to the United States and aid to Korea in later generations. In fact, there has been a fight between China and the United States, and they have already broken out of war. But they all wore vests. Wearing the vest of the United Army on the one hand, and the vest of the Volunteer Army on the other. And the benefits of wearing a vest are self-evident, as it can avoid two direct wars. Therefore, strictly speaking, the two sides did not break out of war from a legal point of view. Many people think that a war broke out between China and the United States when they resisted U.S. aggression and aided Korea, but in fact, from the perspective of international law, there was no war between the two sides, because they were actually wearing vests.

This is the hypocrisy of politics. Although the two sides have already fought to death, they are unwilling to take the initiative to declare war in name. Sometimes the "name" of politics is more important than the facts. Back then, China and Japan had already fought and fought to the death, but in fact the two sides did not declare war. And because China hoped to get the support of Germany. But Germany is an ally of Japan. Once China and Japan go to war in name, then Germany will cut off its support for China. So in order to keep Germany, a country that supports supplies. Naturally, a declaration of war cannot be made. It wasn't until later that countries went to war against Japan that China had the courage to declare war on Japan. This is also a political factor.

"Master Wang, do you mean that the British will not declare war on us?" Hu Wei asked.

Wang Guorui said with certainty: "Yes, the British will not declare war on us. Because Taiwan is not a national entity, it is impossible for them to declare war on Taiwan. Once the British declare war on Taiwan, it will be inevitable. That is to declare war with the Manchu Qing court. What will the Manchu Qing do at that time? They will definitely not be able to resist the British, and they will definitely unite with us. So once the imperial court unites with us, I am afraid that we can all take the opportunity to take over Central. At that time, China will be ours. As long as we are willing to take a step back, then we can solve this matter. And the British will not fail to see this. So he will not choose to declare war on the Qing Dynasty, Once we declare war on the Manchu Qing, it means forcing the Manchu Qing to join us."

"That's good. It's fine if you don't choose." Hu Wei said.

On the other hand, in South Africa, the British were forming a circle to defend against the Boers' attack. And the Chinese mercenaries in South Africa also hung the banner of "Volunteer Army", so that they all seemed to be a volunteer army who just came here. In this way, it seems that everyone has put on a vest and has nothing to do with the Chinese government. And those British people looked at the flag of the Chinese Volunteer Army, and immediately began to curse.

"I asked how the Boers were so powerful. It turned out that the Chinese were fighting for them." "Yes! It's incredible how the Chinese appeared in the Boers' army." provocation."  …

And in Cai Ben's office, the British were yelling.

"Your Chinese government actually sent troops to attack. This is really unreasonable. Your squadron actually provoked our British Empire in this way. Our British Empire will let you go!" said the British envoy.

But Cai Ben immediately said: "We are all volunteers. Do you know what a volunteer army is? Volunteers are volunteers who came to help them fight the war without any appointment from any country or government, so we are all volunteers."

The British envoy felt like ten thousand grass and mud horses passing by, because the volunteer army's statement was really deceitful. This is simply an insult to his IQ. Have you ever seen such a well-equipped volunteer army that almost many people have Sten submachine guns? Have you ever seen a volunteer army who is so familiar with war and is completely professional? This is obviously an insult to their IQ, and they are all very depressed about it anyway.

"Don't think that I don't know you when you are wearing clothes. You people don't say that you are wearing clothes, even if you take off your clothes, I will know you." The British envoy said angrily.

"In that case, please do as you please!" Cai Ben said.

The British have nothing to do with what volunteers like Wang Guorui say, because they are not yet ready for war against Taiwan. If you want to start a war against Taiwan, the British do not have the slightest confidence in defeating Taiwan without an army of more than 300,000. And it's impossible for them to go out on their own, so they naturally have to share the pressure, such as pulling in the Germans, French, and Russians, and they won't let the Japanese go, because Japan and Taiwan have great enemies , Therefore, if the British want to start a war against Taiwan, they will definitely not take the initiative to bear it on their own. Instead, they will bring many countries to fight together. This will not only isolate Taiwan and find allies for themselves, but also allow them to share risks and pressures.

The British know that Taiwan is not a soft persimmon, so they either don't fight, or they just invite other countries to fight together. If the British fight Taiwan by themselves, the risk is still not small, especially if Wan drags down the national strength of their own country, it will really be worth the candle. There is also an unknown organization behind Taiwan~www.mtlnovel.com~ which is even more terrifying. The British spent so long not investigating what this organization was, so the British were also very worried. Next, the British will definitely continue to investigate, but they must have their own purpose to attack Taiwan, an outcropping person.

But it is not so easy to unite countries, because it is very difficult for the British to get the Germans and the French to stand together and fight Taiwan. On the other hand, so many countries need to send troops, which will definitely involve a lot of political discussions, and this is also a very important issue. Therefore, it must not be so easy for all countries to unite to fight against Taiwan. There are also many conflicts between them, which are not so easy to resolve because of this matter.

And they must have an opportunity, and it must be that Taiwan violates the interests of all countries at the same time, then they will temporarily unite under the condition of a common enemy. Otherwise, without this opportunity, it will definitely not work. After all, the conflicts between countries are not so easy to reconcile. However, the British expected this opportunity, they do not know when it will come, this is the idea of ​​the British. If the British did not have this opportunity, their idea of ​​uniting other countries to fight against Taiwan would not be realized, so the opportunity is very important. Now that the British do not have this opportunity, naturally they will not easily start a war against Taiwan. Once the war starts, the British will fight against Taiwan alone, the risk is too great, and the benefits are too small. This loss-making business is not what the "smart people" like the British want. (to be continued)
