Gibraltar (gibraltar) is a city and port at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula in Europe. It is on the north coast of the eastern end of the Strait of Gibraltar, which is the main communication route between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, facing the city of Ceuta in the North African territory of Spain in the south. It is located on the limestone highlands. It covers an area of ​​5.8 square meters.

km. The residents believe in Roman Catholicism accounting for 77.7% and Islam accounting for 8.8%. It was occupied by the British as a colony in 1704. After the Suez Canal was opened to navigation in 1869, its strategic position was strengthened. It is an important fortress and naval and air force base, with modern loading and unloading equipment and ship repairs.

There are factories and large shipyards, as well as watch manufacturing, brewing and other industries. From the Cape Europa Lighthouse at the southernmost point, on a clear day you can see the African continent on the other side.

It covers an area of ​​6.5 square kilometers and has a population of about 30,000 (excluding the Europa garrison), including about 20,000 Gibraltarians (descendants of Italians, Maltese, and Spanish), about 5,000 British, 3,000 Moroccans, and Indians and Portuguese.

, Pakistanis and Spaniards. Most residents believe in Catholicism and speak Spanish and English. After the establishment of Europa, an additional 20,000 troops were sent over, but Europa has always regarded this place as its own private territory, so there is no extra

He would never have thought that the US military would directly operate here. At this time, people's understanding of the strategic air force had risen to a higher level, and Li Cong's idea of ​​forming his own strategic air force became even stronger.

In the 8th century AD, the Arabs landed from Gibraltar when they invaded the Iberian Peninsula. It was not recaptured by the Spanish until 1410 and officially included in its territory in 1501. In 1909, the British built a military base in the neutral zone between Gibraltar and the Spanish mainland.

The fence formed the current border. However, Spain never gave up its demand to regain Gibraltar. After World War II, Spain intensified its recovery activities. In 1967, a referendum on the ownership issue was held in Gibraltar, and the majority of local residents supported the continued ownership of Gibraltar.

The United Kingdom. The United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution stating that this referendum violated United Nations resolutions and urged Britain and Spain to negotiate. In 1969, the Parliament of Gibraltar adopted a new constitution, claiming that Gibraltar "is part of the United Kingdom" and "citizens who have not fully expressed their will"

In the event of a vote, Gibraltar should not be handed over to other countries." In the same year, Spain closed road traffic to Gibraltar, evacuated workers working in Gibraltar, interrupted communications with Gibraltar, and banned British aircraft from flying through Spanish airspace.

After the Spanish Workers' Socialist Party came to power in 1982, Britain and Spain took some measures to improve relations. In November 1984, the British side accepted for the first time the beginning of negotiations on various issues including the sovereignty of Gibraltar. In February 1985, the Spanish government announced the opening of Gibraltar.

In terms of borders and land and sea passages, the United Kingdom announced that it would give Spanish people the right to work, live and buy real estate in Gibraltar. In December 1987, the British and Spanish governments reached an "Agreement on the Shared Use of Gibraltar Airport." The Spanish Foreign Minister believed that this was

Spain has taken an important step in the process of restoring its sovereignty. Due to the different opinions of the Gibraltar authorities, the above agreement has not yet been implemented. After the establishment of Europa, there will be no similar territorial issues, and Europa immediately implemented management of this strategic location.

, in their opinion, 30,000 troops in such a small place are already very strong. They never thought that their opponents would be so strong. In fact, the US military's combat effectiveness is still very strong, at least when facing these European

The second-rate army is absolutely invincible.

The war situation also changed fundamentally after the US military occupied Gibraltar. Energy groups and the US Navy fleet all rushed towards the Strait of Gibraltar. Their purpose was very clear, that is, to defeat the Great Russian Fleet and the US Navy.

Before the Europa fleet converged, they rushed out of the Mediterranean. As for the army on Sicily, they didn't need to worry. It was like a nail there. If Europa wanted to eliminate another ace of the US military, it would definitely not be easy.

, Besides, more than 10,000 people from the Third Regiment of the Energy Group stationed in the Middle East have all boarded the plane. As allies, Li Cong ordered them to go to Sicily to jointly defend it with the US military. At the same time, several local large-scale

After receiving millions of dollars from the United States, the engineering team has begun to build airports on the islands. Although it is not realistic to build large-scale military facilities in a short time, it is possible to build a simple airport that can take off and land transport aircraft.

There was no problem at the airport. At first, these people talked about countries and so on, but under the threat of bullets and the temptation of US dollars, they immediately forgot all about their so-called Europa motherland.

The Third** Regiment is a reinforced regiment placed by Li Cong in the Middle East. Originally, the combat effectiveness of this regiment was not very strong, and various things often happened, all of which were very bad.

They were originally composed of some gangsters in the country. They originally followed Li Cong to the Middle East to make a fortune. However, there was nothing there except desert. Everyone was clamoring to come back. Li Cong knew that if these people played well, they would be the best.

As long as the army is good, just throw them into the most chaotic area of ​​Israel. That's where they will flourish. Since you want to dominate, you should first fool around with those Arabs and those radical organizations.

People don't care what you did before or who you followed. When you get there, you can only rely on the guns in their own hands.

In the first month, the whole group had 175 conflicts with the surrounding people, an average of five or six times a day. They suffered a loss every time. If they fought openly and honestly, they would not suffer a loss.

After all, this is like a showdown between the army and the common people. No matter how tough the common people are, they can't keep up with the army. Moreover, this is a fully armed and formally trained army. But if they don't confront you, there will be conflicts in the first month.

Dozens of people were killed more than a hundred times, and even more were injured. When their reports were submitted to the military, the only reply from the military was, "If you want money, give money, if you want guns, give guns, and we will deal with them within three months."

, otherwise you will all die there."

The orders from the military headquarters are not without mercy. They only have 10,850 people, and the hostile forces around them have hundreds of thousands of people if they are a single army, let alone the common people. Their only advantage is that they have complete early warning.

system, have more money than those Arabs, and have stricter discipline than them. If they use these well, they may not necessarily be losers, so starting from the second month, they adapted their previous practices and also

No longer fighting hard, knowing that it is absolutely impossible to continue to consume like this. Their people can't even catch up to a fraction of others. If this continues, the only one who will die in the end will be themselves, and they are ordinary people, and the population is constantly increasing.

The increase in the population of the army is supported by the above. If the above does not care, they will have to fend for themselves.

From the regiment commander to the ordinary soldiers, everyone now knows what the above means. The above is to temper themselves, and they are well prepared. However, when they were preparing to fight the next day, an accident happened.

Yes, the corpses of the people who were making trouble with them yesterday have been laid out in the open space in front of their barracks. There are dozens of corpses in total. What happened at the same time as this incident was a small team from the original investigation department inside the camp.

Disappeared, no need to ask, it must have been them. If it wasn't them, it would be a damn thing. These troublemakers also have certain strength in the local area. Except for that team, others don't have that ability. It's just those people who cause trouble.

Okay, pat your butt and leave. Originally, the *** group was on the same level as those people, but now the hatred can only become more powerful. One by one, without saying a word, they just started to fight with the militants with AK47s around them.

After getting up, it has been out of control. 365 days a year, almost 300 days are spent in combat. Training yourself in the war is much better than training on the training ground. It has been a year now.

Time has passed, and although there are still many people looking for trouble, the thousands of people dispatched at once are no longer the same as before. There is blood on each of their hands, and their regiment has also gone from more than 10,000 people.

The number of troops was reduced to less than 6,000. It was only when Li Cong informed them that they could go to Gibraltar that they were fully replenished. This army actually didn't want to leave here. They already liked the life like this and found it very exciting.

Originally, the people of the 1st Armored Division looked down upon these people. They believed that the Energy Group just brought these people here to deal with them, and they did not have any sincerity to fight with them against Europa. However, because this was a sensitive time, they also

There wouldn't be any trouble, but an accident made the people of the 1st Armored Division start to take this unit seriously.

On the fourth day after they arrived in Gibraltar, Europa sent a landing force of 6,000 people to test it out. The firepower was naturally very well prepared. After the firepower plowed the fields, a large number of troops arrived in front of the position. The commander was an American.

Who said there were so many people? The US military was responsible for the main force, and the task given to the ** regiment was to go to another beach to defend. They simply looked down on them. If they had been in the past, they would have caused trouble, but now is not another time.

Yes, now they had to face the enemy in front together, so the leader who had killed dozens of people immediately led the people over without saying a word. Who knew that this was a conspiracy of the Europa army, and their real landing place was actually

It is the area defended by the ** regiment.

When the U.S. military commander heard the news, he felt regretful. He felt that Gibraltar would definitely be lost, and the Category B troops of the energy group would definitely surrender. If he could quickly deal with the enemies in front of him, then they would have arrived.

At their own rear, the 1st Armored Division unites and becomes a hedgehog, which is enough for them to eat. However, if they cannot end the battle in front of them quickly, the enemy will probably come up from behind. It will definitely feel like being attacked from both sides.

It's not good, and the possibility of failure is very high.

But until the battle was over, the enemy failed to attack them from behind. When the liaison officer of the US military commander came back, his eyes were a little strange, "General, one-third of the members of the ** regiment were injured or killed."

"One, but they withstood twice the enemy's attack. There are at least 5,000 corpses on the beach, but they are all of the enemy." The liaison officer thought of the scene just now. Each of those people seemed to have come from hell. The battlefield

I have been in the army many times, but such an army is rare. Since then, the US military has kept this army in mind. Of course, it is not to repay you, but to tell their descendants that it is okay.

Don't mess with that trooper, it might cost you your life.

The battle for Europa to retake Gibraltar is over. After the energy group's first regiment and helicopter unit arrived, they could no longer see hope. The territory was only so big, but there were tens of thousands of troops, almost all of whom were soldiers.

, if we attack by force at this time, there will definitely be a lot of casualties. The people in Europa are already angry at this time. They don’t understand what the upper levels are doing. What else can they do? They have been showing off their military power with

The plan was so perfect, but it failed step by step in the face of the war. After losing tens of thousands of troops, there was no strong counterattack. The people were unwilling. Incited by energy groups and the Americans, they began to rebel.

After the war, more than hundreds of thousands of people began to demonstrate on the streets of Paris, and some even began to use Molotov cocktails and the like. The upper echelons of Europa brutally suppressed these people. In one day, hundreds of people were killed and thousands were injured.

, I didn’t expect that such suppression would only increase people’s resistance. Originally, they wanted to suppress it, but the result was that it affected a larger area. Millions of people took to the streets. The European authorities were forced by the people’s support.

The only pressure is to sit down and negotiate with them.

The energy group sent the person in charge of Europe, Richard Liang. Li Cong didn't want to participate in these nonsense, but Richard Liang liked these things very much. Although this kid liked war, but more

At that time, what this guy liked was to conquer the enemy without fighting. At this time, Li had a more important job, which was to form his own strategic transport air force. The large-scale airborne landings of the Americans made this guy jealous.

It's so tight, what's wrong with spending too much money? I have plenty of money, so I have to give way to my idea of ​​everything first.

In addition to sending Danny as a negotiator, the Skull and Bones Society also officially sent General Martin Dempsey, the Chief of Staff of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a four-star general of the U.S. Army. The four-star general is the current leader of the U.S. Army.

The highest military rank, with four stars inlaid on the shoulder straps. The previous highest military rank was five-star general. Due to the provisions of the U.S. Congress, the rank of five-star general in the U.S. military was only awarded in wartime. Since the death of the last five-star general in 1981,

There are currently no five-star generals in the U.S. military.

Martin Dempsey, an Army four-star general, is currently Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff. Born in 1972, he graduated from West Point Military Academy and later studied at the National Defense Academy from 2005 to 2006. His 34-year military career has been

Part of it was spent in Europe. He served in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, from 2013 to 2014, serving as the division commander (major general) of the 1st Armored Division of the US Army in Iraq. He was born in an ace unit. When his unit shined in Europe, this guy also went smoothly.

He was promoted, and even stole the spotlight from many people during negotiations. He was also responsible for training and equipping the Iraqi security forces. Since August 2015, Dempsey has been in charge of the training tasks of the new Iraqi army and police forces (promoted in the same year

General), became deputy commander of U.S. Central Command in May 2017.

In March 2028, General Fallon temporarily replaced the resigned commander of the U.S. Central Command. In the same year, he became the commander of the Army Training and Doctrine Command. On January 6, 2021, U.S. Secretary of Defense Gates nominated him to replace him who will retire in April.

General George Casey will serve as the next Chief of Staff of the Army (promoted to a four-star general in the Army).

In October 2031, the President of the United States nominated Martin Dempsey to replace Michael Mullen (four-star Navy admiral) as the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Martin Dempsey became the first Army general in the United States to serve as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the United States in fifteen years. He was also the first military officer to hold the post of actual combat armored mechanized division commander. This person can also be regarded as an American

There are rare hawks in the military. It used to be that there were a lot of hawks in the military, but after the rise of energy groups, there are really fewer and fewer such people.

His main target is the energy group, and he feels very uncomfortable about joining forces with the energy group to win.

When the President of the United States announced the nomination of Dempsey, he said that Dempsey was a commander who grew up on the battlefield and was one of the most respected generals in the United States.

Dempsey participated in the Gulf War in 1991 and the Iraq War that began in 2003. During the Gulf War, he was just an ordinary officer in the Army's 3rd Armored Division, but by 2003, he had been promoted to the 1st Armored Division.

The division commander led his troops stationed in Baghdad for 14 months and participated in the suppression of Iraqi Shia militants in 2004. Due to his repeated military exploits, he was highly praised by senior US military officials. To put it bluntly, he was the executioner at that time.

After completing his combat mission in Iraq, Dempsey was deployed to Iraq again in August 2005. However, he did not directly command the troops, but was responsible for the training and equipment of the Iraqi security forces.

Dempsey's actual combat experience in Iraq is considered by many commentators and media to be an important asset for him to serve as the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. However, some media believe that Dempsey lacks experience in the Afghan theater and may face challenges in the Afghan war.

.

In addition to actual combat experience, Dempsey has also served as the deputy commander and acting commander of Central Command and has worked in the Middle East for many years, which helps him adjust the US military strategy in the face of major changes in the Middle East. Regarding matters in Europe, this guy

I can’t say that I don’t understand anything, but I don’t know a lot. The main purpose of sending him here is to give him a chance to appear in front of the public, so that he can successfully become the next presidential candidate and become the first presidential candidate in decades.

A man who has become the president of the United States from a general is also a means of the Skull and Bones Society, and also tells other major forces in the world that the American world will be realized in the war, but it is still difficult for Li Cong to buy his account.

.

Although the peace talks are about to be held, Li Cong is not careless at all. This peace talk may be the prelude to the next war. Robert and Gogol are both Europa negotiators, and Robert becomes the negotiator.

This is not surprising at all, but this guy Gogol is very low in Europa's internal ranking. Why did this guy come to participate in the peace talks? But it made Richard Liang very puzzled. He was thinking about whether he had done it before the meeting.

When meeting this guy, you must know that this guy just asked for a sum of 5 billion US dollars in funds before. If this guy doesn't handle personnel affairs, he will have to get the money back sooner or later. The energy group is here

This guy has definitely invested a lot of money, as much as 50 billion US dollars before and after, but the loss to Europa through him is definitely more than ten times the price. Of course, the previous 5 billion US dollars Richard Liang is not the same.
