1741 Reasonable and Well-Founded
So far, what people actually think of as the "World War II" has not spread to the whole world, because "hatred" is controlled between the core countries of the last world war.
Gefra, Pengeo, Federation!
If it weren't for the Federation's international financial attack on Penjiao, Penjiao's vassal country, those countries might not have fully participated in the war!
Other countries seem to show no signs of using force.
Some of the countries that have taken action before have not yet recovered.
War is not a simple thing, never has been.
Many people may think that war is nothing more than letting soldiers rush over to fight for life or death.
But how can it actually be so easy?
Bullets are money, pensions are money, various transportation expenses are money...
Fighting means fighting for money!
Within the federal society, Lynch's "Financial War Theory" has begun to be mentioned again, and the reason why it is mentioned is because of its preface!
War is a waste of money!
Big countries can rely on national strength to recover, but once a small country does not achieve enough benefits in a war, even if it wins the war in the end, it may be hurt more seriously than when it failed!
Coupled with the war between big countries, these small countries thought they couldn't get involved, and everyone was waiting and watching.
Moreover, the existence of the World Development Council also reduces the possibility of a real "world war" to a certain extent.
Mr. Trueman and the Department of Defense believe that, if nothing unexpected happens, the scale of the war will always be limited to an appropriate scope and will not spread outwards.
This means no more people will join in, and less damage to the world.
The two sides of the war are small in scale, so the Federation can see the development of the entire war more clearly, and at the same time, it has more control.
So far, Mr. Trueman has discovered that there is no benefit to Guevra's participation in the war, and he is still holding back.
If other countries in the World Development Council join the war and they are held back, should we save them or not?
Failure to save it means that eventually the World Development Council will slowly and naturally dissolve, because the federation, as the sole chair of the committee, will not lend a helping hand when its member states are threatened.
They can reach out, but if they don’t, who will continue to trust you?
By reaching out, the troubles of these small countries are solved, but for the federation, it will distract the federation's energy, military power, and financial resources!
And maybe it won’t be satisfying in the end, and those people won’t be very satisfied with the result!
War is always selfish. Desire comes first, then war!
Now that Sardoras has suddenly launched a war against its old neighbor, it is indeed beyond everyone's expectations!
You must know that Sartoras was a neutral country in the last world war, but this time they suddenly sent troops, which made people a little confused and made the international situation weird.
There were special cars all the way, and when Mr. Trueman returned to the office, the ambassador of Sedoras had been waiting for a long time.
After a brief greeting, Mr. Trueman directly asked the question he was most concerned about, "Why did the war suddenly start?"
Ambassador Sedoras seemed to be prepared for the federal president's question, "Mr. President, there have always been historical issues between us and Louups, and they have never been resolved!"
"We didn't have a good way to solve these problems before, but now, the Prime Minister believes that we have the ability to solve these problems left over from history once and for all, so we did that!"
It was only through the narrative of the diplomatic ambassador of Cydorus that Mr. Trueman learned that Cydorus and Luupus had previously been the same country.
Later, due to some reasons, the country split into two parts, which are now Sedoras and Luupus.
Although there are already two countries, the sovereignty of some areas is still unclear, including some maritime issues.
In fact, the two countries had the same problems as Marillo, except that they became two independent parts, while Marillo still maintained a national system, but the two races within the same structure were killing each other.
It can be said that the choice of Sedoras and Luupus was relatively correct. At least both sides got a period of peace.
Some time ago, before the cold wave arrived, it was the last fishing season in Sedoras, and it was also the most important time period.
Every year, the fishermen of Sedoras rely on the rainy season to obtain good harvests and wealth. However, during this year's fishing season, Luupus's fishing boat once again crossed the border and attacked the fishing boats of Sedoras.
After the fermentation of domestic media and public opinion, yesterday, without the outside world being very sensitive and informed, Prime Minister Sedoras and some electors reached a final consensus and officially declared war on the old neighbor!
Early this morning, the army that had been prepared had already crossed the border and caught Luups by surprise.
"If nothing else happens, the war will not last too long, and we will deal with the subsequent problems."
"The Prime Minister hopes that I can convey this to you for him. We have no intention of carrying out any military expansion. We are just solving problems left over from history."
"When we solve these problems, peace will return and everything will be the same as before!"
The diplomatic ambassador spoke very sincerely and in detail. Sedoras only wanted to pass a formal letter of credence to resolve the ownership of the currently disputed area.
In their own eyes this was an easy thing to do because they had the Federation behind them.
The Federation's advanced war weapons are basically unrestricted for sale to members of the World Development Council. As long as they spend money, they can buy most of them.
Of course, these products are mainly export versions, and their performance or functions may be somewhat emasculated, but they are enough to support a small country launching a war against another small country!
Fifty thousand people, one hundred aircraft and 350 tanks of all kinds, it looks like a farce, but it is definitely not a joke!
The diplomatic ambassador of Sedoras clearly told Mr. Trueman the cause, necessity, handling method, expected consequences and ultimate purpose of the war.
Generally speaking, this is not a sudden war. Maybe they have been planning for a long time and are just waiting for an opportunity.
Now the Gevra people have stabilized their last position, and the federal people have also suppressed the Pengeo military group on the battlefield of Nagaril.
The Cedorans decided it was time, and war broke out.
But this is really not good news, because it is very likely that it will become a signal!
Conflicts with neighboring countries are common in this world. There may have been a lack of opportunities before, but now, there is no shortage of opportunities!
In fact, Mr. Trueman also understood that it was absolutely impossible to stop them and make them stop at this time.
He could only try to keep everything under control, "How can I help you?"
"Perhaps we can arrange a fleet to help you solve the problem?"
The diplomatic ambassador of Sedoras shook his head repeatedly, "Thank you for your kindness. Mr. President, the Prime Minister, and our people want to solve these problems personally!"
"Of course, when we really need your and the Federation's help, we will tell you as soon as possible!"
Mr. Trueman thought about it again, "Well, if you need any help, please let me know anytime."
"Also, I have an idea, maybe we can send observers to the battlefield, what do you think?"
It is a common phenomenon to send military observers to battlefields where war is breaking out.
Generally speaking, most countries will not refuse, at least they will not refuse requests from countries with which they have a good relationship.
Just like the Federation, if someone asks for observation, they won't say no.
For example, some cutting-edge war weapons cannot be stolen just by looking at them!
Since you can’t steal any skills by simply watching, why not let them watch?
On the contrary, you can use this opportunity to tell others how powerful you are, which is also a way to maintain peace and influence.
Mr. Trueman wanted to send military observers. In fact, he wanted to have a clear understanding and grasp of the entire war situation.
Of course, he couldn't say that he would send people to monitor the development of this war, but it would be much better to use observers as an excuse.
The diplomatic ambassador of Sedoras agreed immediately. He, or the prime minister of Sedoras, had already made a guess!
After the diplomatic ambassador of Sedoras left, Mr. Trueman was still very irritated. It was the diplomats who came instead of the Prime Minister's call, which meant that it was better for the two sides not to talk to each other for the time being.
Once the call is made, many things must come to a conclusion, which is not conducive to the development of the aftermath.
In addition to alarming some capitalists, the news of the outbreak of war in Cydoras did not bring much influence to the entire federal society.
People are still immersed in the joy of launching the sea fortress and regaining economic growth. In fact, even if they knew it, they would not understand what it meant.
As for the capitalists being affected, it is purely because some capitalists have some properties in Cydoras and some unknown accounts...
It was already evening when Lynch found out, and the news was reported on the evening news, which made him feel a little baffled.
But he is not particularly concerned. Most of his funds are kept domestically, and only a very small part is kept abroad.
The federation has a very strict review system for funds entering and exiting the port, and the entry and exit of large sums of money will be closely monitored and controlled by the Security Committee.
If the money is related to people in the federation, the tax office may also come to visit.
Since his theory on financial war has been gradually improved by other scholars, Mr. Trueman and even the entire federal government have attached great importance to this aspect.
After all, no one wants to experience another Great Depression!
Time passed like this little by little, and the weather became colder and colder. Even Nagaril began to cool down on a large scale.
The drop in temperature seems to have also weakened the enthusiasm for war. The battles in the two core battlefields have subsided a lot, and the outbreaks are not so frequent...
