Chapter 1829 Asking for Monthly Votes! ! ! !

"Holy City!!!" When the first Egyptian soldier saw the Holy City, the entire Egyptian army was boiling. In fact, many people were still some distance away from the Holy City and could not see the Holy City at all, but at this moment, they also cheered.

It's been too long, too long.

The last time the Egyptians had the Holy City was in the era of Saladin!

In fact, seriously speaking, the Egyptians' recognition of ancient history is still mainly based on Arab Egypt. After all, ancient Egyptians and modern Egyptians are very different. Most of the Egyptians now are Arabs.

So the recognition of Saladin is much stronger than those pharaohs.

The Egyptians oppose the view that Egyptian civilization is only more than 5,000 years old, and believe it is a product of modern Western centrism. Under the Egyptian MZism and African centrism, the West not only did not praise and elevate ancient Egypt, but deliberately suppressed and belittled ancient Egyptian civilization. In fact, some people strongly oppose the current Western scholars' questioning or even abandoning the records of Egyptian civilization in Greek and Roman materials, and are also skeptical about the records of Egyptian documents. On the contrary, they still adhere to the ideas handed down from ancient times, believing that modern Egyptology's interpretation of ancient Egyptian civilization is evil, and complaining that the orthodox academic community (referring to the Western academic community) has monopolized the right to interpret ancient Egyptian civilization.

Although modern Egyptians have no cultural heritage connection with ancient Egyptians, they believe that modern Western academic circles have intentionally shortened the history of ancient Egypt. The view that Egypt is regarded as the oldest country has been around since ancient times. This is not an invention of the modern West, and archaeology only provides confirmation.

In general, modern Egyptians' views on ancient Egypt are still quite complicated. Of course, there is pride, but... there really is not much. The general Egyptian public may not have a high degree of understanding of ancient Egyptian culture. This is mainly because the development of economic levels is quite different, and many people's daily life needs have not been met, so they may pay less attention to and invest less in culture. However, Egyptian universities have majors and doctoral programs for studying ancient Egyptian civilization, which shows that in the academic field, Egyptians have a high enthusiasm and depth of research on ancient Egyptian culture.

But that's all.

The most obvious example is that there is a huge difference in the management and protection of mosques and ancient Egyptian relics. The Egyptian government has some problems in the protection and management of ancient Egyptian relics, such as the poor management of famous ancient Egyptian attractions, which leads to poor tourist experience. In contrast, Egypt has done a good job in the management and protection of mosques.

Even the lower-class people will spontaneously protect and maintain those mosques, but forget about those ancient Egyptian relics.

In contrast, their recognition of Saladin is extraordinary. They think Saladin is Egypt's national hero.

However, now, they have finally achieved Saladin's feat again! (Interestingly, Saladin is not Egyptian, he is a Kurd, born in Iraq, and rose in Egypt)

In any case, the holy city is in sight.

Apocalypse's goal was achieved... Although compared with the expected plan, his goal was not much, but the most important thing was to take the holy city and gain the highest reputation in the Islamic world in one fell swoop! Other failures are acceptable.

Faced with such a situation, the little bully can only contact the United States again.

But this time, the little bully's attitude towards the White House is much better.

At least there is no more arrogance. In fact, many times, Xiaobawang's attitude towards the White House can only be regarded as face-saving. They can even face the White House toughly... It's not that Xiaobawang can really get rid of the United States and face the situation alone.

On the contrary, Xiaobawang has always been very dependent on the United States.

The real reason why Xiaobawang can ignore the White House is... Xiaobawang has broad support from both parties. They don't need the support of a president who changes every four years. As long as the two parties still exist, Xiaobawang will never lose the support of the White House.

Xiaobawang's ecology in the United States is very interesting.

Xiaobawang's capital in the United States supports the Democratic Party. Historically, Xiaobawang capital has always tended to support the Democratic Party rather than the Republican Party. This is because Xiaobawang capital attaches importance to maintaining and showing the image of "loyalty" to the United States!

But the Republican Party fanatically supports Xiaobawang as a country! The reason why they support it so much is that domestic Protestants are the most supportive of Xiaobawang's founding of the country, and these fanatical Protestants are the biggest supporters of the Republican Party.

So Xiaobawang does not lack support from both parties at all.

So the president? What president? The president is just a county head who changes with time, and their little tyrant is the iron-clad Mr. Huang.

But now the situation is wrong. First of all, President Benjamin has confirmed that he can continue to be re-elected, and he has broken through the constitutional restrictions. He will soon become the second long-term re-elected general after Roosevelt, which means that Benjamin's political power will soon break through the shackles of the two parties and have a wide range of supporters in both parties.

Secondly, it is the struggle between the two major capital groups in the United States.

With the change of the international situation, the decline of US hegemony has caused the accelerated involution of capital in the United States. After being unable to reap benefits from the international community, the major capital groups will inevitably accelerate internal competition for their own growth!

There is no way. When they can't eat outsiders, they can only devour each other to satisfy their appetite.

The little tyrant capital is very strong, but it depends on the situation.

In the past, we harvested the world together and cooperated well with each other. But now that we are about to devour each other, the tricks that Xiaobawang Capital used to play are useless.

After all, everything is fake, only interests are real.

To talk about the real old gangsters, we have to look at the Anglo-Saxon old gangsters. For these people, morality? What is that? I have never talked about morality since I started to get involved. What a bullshit persecution! Have I, an American, persecuted Xiaobawang's people?

Even if I persecuted, what would happen?

Americans can also be shameless and not admit it, after all, Indians are still isolated!

Americans don't celebrate Thanksgiving every year... I really don't know how Americans have the face to promote this holiday... Thanksgiving, gratitude, their so-called gratitude is to peel off the other party's scalp, occupy the other party's land, massacre them, and then drive some of the dead and left to the reservation in the remote countryside?

Don't be too grateful.

So those old stories of Xiaobawang, you can sell sympathy in Europe, but in my America? Don't even think about it!

In the past, in the American public opinion environment, if you dared to say anything bad about Xiaobawang, you would be labeled with various labels immediately, and then directly die socially. It was regarded as a scourge by everyone... Really, there can't be any of it, it's an absolute red line. People who don't know would think that the persecution of Xiaobawang happened in the United States... But the fact is that the United States is the only country in the world that has never persecuted it... In this regard, the United States is really pure and innocent.

But it happens that the United States has the strictest control in this regard.

This is very interesting.

But as the capital fights, this red line suddenly disappears. Now you can see how many voices criticizing Xiaobawang have burst out in the market. It seems that in an instant, the Americans have begun to be fair and just, and to uphold justice for the victims of Xiaobawang's persecution and massacre.

With the loss of the public opinion position, politically, Anglo-Saxon capital also began to vigorously clean up those forces dominated by Xiaobawang capital.

For a time, Xiaobawang could get much less political support in the United States.

The original support of the two parties was reduced a lot in an instant, especially the Republicans. They supported the little bully very much for religious reasons, but after a period of deception, those extreme religious groups also began to be cautious. After all, what the little bully did was a bit contrary to their understanding of God.

With many factors added together, the little bully now began to lose his temper in front of the White House boss.

Benjamin Xi didn't want the little bully to disappear?

Of course not.

This is certain. As the situation develops, the little bully must stick closer to the United States to survive... As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the United States has begun to decline, its foundation is still there. No one can tell whether the United States can stand on the top again in a few years.

The United States is just a shelf that has fallen, not really dead!

There is still a slowdown, so the international influence of the United States is still there, even the bear and China need to give him two thin faces.

Although the three countries are fighting for hegemony, the three countries are very clear that the hegemony struggle in this era cannot be as simple and crude as the hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union. After all, the situation facing the earth now is completely different from before. In the past, when the United States and the Soviet Union were competing for hegemony, were there monsters everywhere?

Was there a super uncle like Atlantis?

Was there a cousin like Asgard that we could only look up to?

Are there all kinds of alien civilizations that can destroy the world?

At this time, fighting a civil war on Earth... is it because everyone is dying too slowly?

So, a new era, a new way of fighting.

And Benjamin is ready to welcome the arrival of the new era. He encountered the bad era of the decline of the United States, and also ushered in a new era of global change!

What position the United States can occupy in the new era in the future... depends on him.

Benjamin now has a sense of mission as a politician.

But although the sense of mission is good, you still have to rely on means to do things.

Benjamin can't let go of the trouble of the little bully!

This is directly related to the future global strategy of the United States!

So it's time to meet.

The little bully's request is very simple, the United States will personally go out and punish Apocalypse.

But Benjamin rejected this request very clearly and directly, not giving the little bully any room for illusion and distortion.

The United States will not end... reality does not allow it at all.

The U.S. Navy... If it were not for the legacy of S.H.I.E.L.D., the U.S. Navy would have returned to the United States after the Civil War.

The former U.S. Navy was so awesome, with seven fleets, about 500,000 active and reserve soldiers, 279 active warships and 4,000 aircraft. It was the world's largest, highest tonnage, most advanced equipment, and the world's strongest navy with overall strength exceeding that of other countries. The U.S. Navy consists of two independent branches of the Navy and the Marine Corps, both of which are under the leadership of the U.S. Department of the Navy. The Navy Department is one of the three branches of the U.S. Department of Defense, also known as the "Washington Navy Yard", which consists of three central units: the Office of the Secretary of the Navy, the Department of Naval Operations, and the Marine Corps Headquarters. In addition, the U.S. Coast Guard is led by the Navy during wartime.

What about now?

Even if the Coast Guard is counted, there are not many ships!

It has returned to the state after the Civil War... They are almost ready to launch sailing ironclad ships!

In the past, the United States did have the ability to deploy military forces around the world in a short period of time, but now... it is impossible to conquer the world with the air force!

Apart from other things, the cost is unbearable.

Yes, it sounds like the Air Force can do everything, including transport and combat. But the cost is too high. Apart from anything else, how many people can your transport plane transport?

Take the C-17 Globemaster, the most powerful transport plane of the US Air Force, for example. A C-17 transported 823 people at one time, and its maximum load capacity is only 77.5 tons. What can this capacity do?

Any warship can crush it!

Not to mention those transport ships and supply ships. The main transport capacity of modern warfare is still sea transportation!

Take the Iraq War as an example. In this war, the United States recruited 47 merchant ships, 106 cargo ships, 33 pre-positioned ships at sea, 25 fuel supply ships and comprehensive supply ships, and 3 special ships by dispatching military tankers and calling civilian cargo ships. This total of more than 200 ships needed to transport about 300,000 troops, more than 2 million tons of war materials, and tens of thousands of various types of vehicles and armored vehicles to Iraq within 3 months.

You rely on airplanes to transport?

Even if you fly the plane to scrap, there is no hope!

And even so, the Americans still think that this transportation capacity is too poor, and it is even beyond the United States' own expectations. Although 300,000 troops were delivered, the more than 2 million tons of various materials originally planned to be delivered were only 235,000 tons until the end of the US military's early military operations. In other words, the actual transportation capacity of the US military is only about 1/10 of its own imagined transportation capacity. And these 230,000 tons of materials are only enough for the US military to consume for one week. By the end of the war, the US military was actually close to running out of ammunition and food. If the Iraqi army had not been undeterred from fighting, the US military might have been defeated in the early stages of the Iraq War. Because of the lack of transport capacity, the US military had to reduce individual rations after about a week of combat. In addition to the reduction in fuel rations for cars and armored vehicles, the field rations of US soldiers also began to decrease, and the rations of some troops were even cut in half.

The real awesome thing was the United States during World War II. In order to support the war, the United States during World War II launched the "Liberty Ship Project". From the start of the plan in 1941 to the end of World War II in 1945, the US military produced a total of 2,751 Liberty Ships, each with a deadweight tonnage of about 5,500 tons. In other words, the United States during World War II produced 15.12 million deadweight tons of transport capacity in 4 years. This data is a considerable transport capacity even in the 21st century. During World War II, its transport capacity can be said to crush the world.

But does the United States still have sea transportation now? No! All gone!

In this case, the United States went crazy and personally took action?
