Chapter 252: The Spokesweet Conference

On June 24, the 9th Oriental Alliance Group Summit was held in Yokohama.

It is said that the meeting was arranged in Yokohama to have a different meaning. You should know that the war broke out here, so Huang Hanlin hoped to end here. Of course, this has two meanings. One is to issue a joint declaration of the Oriental Alliance Group here, and write the unconditional surrender of the United States into the wartime charter of the Oriental Alliance Group. The other is to hope that this is the last Oriental Alliance Group summit, and the next time will be the post-war victory celebration.

Since it is hope, you have to be prepared.

After arriving in Yokohama, Huang Hanlin handed over the work of receiving heads of other countries to Du Xiaolei, and personally received the European Federal Prime Minister Pino who had come from afar.

At this time, anyone could think that after the war, it would be the world between China and the European Federation.

Of course, fundamentally speaking, it is still the Chinese world. However, after the United States was defeated, only the European Federation had the strength to compete with China worldwide. Any other country, including India, which surpassed China in population, could not be China's opponents, or even not qualified to be an opponent with China. You must know that India is economically connected with China. If China intends to deal with India, it does not need to dispatch troops at all. It only needs to draw all India's foreign investment, so that India can become the poorest country in the world overnight.

It is precisely because of the European Federation that China cannot dominate the world.

By the same token, if Huang Hanlin wants to dominate the post-war world order, the first thing he needs to do is to settle the European Federation, either make the European Federation bow down or make the European Federation profit-oriented. Obviously, the former is unlikely. After all, the European Federation is an ally of China, and after the war is over, the people in the country will not allow politics to impress the next war. Then, they can only try to win over the European Federation.

At that time, no one knew what Huang Hanlin and Pino had talked about on the night of June 22nd.

It was not until fifty years after the end of the war that some top-secret files of the European Federal Government related to the war were declassified, and the inside story of this secret meeting was released to the public.

What Huang Hanlin wanted was to get Pino to support his claim that the United States must surrender unconditionally.

For this reason, Huang Hanlin must have made great concessions.

Interestingly, Pino not only knew himself, but also made equal concessions, and seemed very happy to share the global interests after the war with Huang Hanlin.

Objectively speaking, Huang Hanlin's sharing of global interests after the war is definitely a good thing that Pinoy is undesirable.

You should know that even if Huang Hanlin refused to give in, Pino would have to make concessions on the issue of the United States' surrender, and he might not be able to share global interests with China after the war.

As a result, this became the last secret cooperation between China and the European Federation during the war.

In terms of influence, this is definitely the biggest secret cooperation.

According to the top secret archives released by the European Federation, Huang Hanlin first recognized the interests of the European Federation on the European continent, North Africa and the North Atlantic, and promised that China would not interfere in the European continent, North Africa and the North Atlantic affairs, which was equivalent to a disguised recognition that the Mediterranean was the inland sea of ​​Europe. In response, Pino admitted that China occupied Britain and did not seek to annex Britain, as well as China's control over Egypt and the east region, that is, China has absolute dominance on the Suez Canal and the eastern coast of the Mediterranean. As a result, Turkey and Libya became buffer zones between China and the European Federation, and both sides had equal status in the two countries and did not seek absolute control.

In the details, Huang Hanlin promised that after the war, the European Union would default to the means of unifying the European continent, that is, China would not interfere with the unified war launched by the European Union, nor would it provide military support to other European countries, but the European continent needed to retain at least two permanent neutral countries (this is the reason why the European Union did not invade Finland later, and Finland and Switzerland were both permanent neutral countries). As a reciprocal condition, Huang Hanlin promised to retain two permanent neutral countries in Asia (Brunei and Bhutan) and deploy fleets in the UK.

Initially, Pino strongly opposed China's deployment of fleets in Britain.

Although Pino recognized the strong character of Britain and did not seek to annex Britain, he felt that Huang Hanlin's request had already posed a threat to Europe's vital interests. After all, a powerful Chinese fleet operating on the North Atlantic would inevitably make the North Atlantic a sphere of influence in China.

You should know that Huang Hanlin generally recognizes the influence of the European Federation in the North Atlantic.

The problem is that Huang Hanlin insists on deploying a fleet in the UK, because in his opinion, only by deploying a fleet in the UK can the British be guaranteed to be vital.

The two argued on this issue for a long time, and finally made compromises.

Pinoy promised that the Chinese Navy would deploy fleets in the UK, while Huang Hanlin promised that the size of the fleet deployed by China on the North Atlantic would not exceed that of the European Navy. More importantly, after the European Federation annexed Spain, the Chinese Navy would return the Gibraltar Fortress to the European Federation in exchange for the right to lease and use the Port of Ceuta on the south bank of the Strait of Gibraltar. Later, this became the direct reason why the European Federation took the lead in sending troops to Spain and annexed Spain by force. The Port of Ceuta was also permanently leased to the Chinese Navy at a symbolic price of one euro (the lease period was forty-nine years when the formal treaty was signed, but China had the right to renew the lease).

Not long after the war, Pino fell, and the fundamental reason was related to this secret agreement.

At that time, almost all politicians in the European Federation believed that Pino had betrayed the European Federation and made the European Federation lose the opportunity to unify the whole of Europe, especially the opportunity to unify the United Kingdom.

You should know that Britain is essentially a European country, and a European power with a status of no less than France, Germany and Italy.

In a sense, there can be no Belarus, no Ukraine, no Baltic Three Kingdoms, no Black Sea coastal countries, no Balkan Peninsula, because in terms of culture, religious beliefs, nations, etc., there is basically no commonality with traditional Western European countries, especially France, Germany, Italy, Britain, etc., so there is no need for unity. In a narrow sense, Europe refers to Europe west of Poland, and to the east, it is an Eastern country in the eyes of Europeans.

However, Europe must not be without Britain.

Since the Frankish Kingdom established by Charleman the Great, Europe has never been truly unified. Even during the brief period of Napoleon, because Britain has always been outside and was the leader of the anti-Napoleon alliance, the empire established by Napoleon that covered the European continent quickly disappeared.

In the relationship between Europeans, Britain is not only an integral part, but also the key to determining whether Europe truly achieves unity.

It can be said that without the European Federation of Britain, it is not a complete country.

More importantly, the United Kingdom, controlled by China, will inevitably be the fatal point of the European Federation, and will eventually lead to the collapse of the European Federation.

In fact, this is also the result of Europeans' self-reward.

Don’t forget that after World War II, the global movement broke out. Many traditional colonial powers such as Britain, France, and the Netherlands deliberately left hidden dangers when dealing with their colonies, causing the newly established countries to continue to undergo dozens of civil wars.

The most typical example is that Britain dismembered India, leaving behind a Kashmir dispute between India and Pakistan.

More typical is that a British colonel named McMahon easily outlined on the map, which led to decades of disagreement between China and India.

In addition, Israel in the Middle East, Kuwait in the Gulf, the United States' disposal methods on the Diaoyu Islands, the French's remains in Cambodia, etc., are all seeds of regional conflicts, and they took root and sprouted after the colonists evacuated, causing dozens of regional wars.

In essence, the means used by China when dealing with the UK were exactly the same as the means used by Britain to deal with South Asia back then.

To put it bluntly, China's control of Britain is to create discord in Europe and cause chaos in the European Federation, so as to achieve the goal of restraining and curbing the European Federation.

Of course, a deeper level is the differentiation and disintegration of Western civilization.

Obviously, Pino knew this.

It is precisely because of this that Pino had to make concessions, because China would definitely not compromise with the European Union on the issue of the UK. To put it seriously, if Pino bites the UK and refuses to let it go, Huang Hanlin will not pick up carrots, but sticks.

More importantly, the Chinese team occupied Britain is a fait accompli.

In this way, even if Pino held on, Huang Hanlin did not worsen the situation, and the European Federation could only protest. As a result, after the war ended, Sino-Europe relations deteriorated sharply. To this point, the European Federation had only one choice: attacking Britain. This would inevitably lead to a total war between China and Europe.

Does the European Federation have a chance to win?

The answer is yes. The European Federation will definitely not be able to defeat China, and the defeat is the inevitable result.

It can be said that as long as the British issue is slightly inappropriate, the European Federation will become the second United States and the source of war.

At that time, China will fight another just war.

Pinault knew this possibility well, so he could only swallow his anger and make concessions on the UK issue, and gained more benefits.

To put it bluntly, Pino did not betray the European Federation, but allowed the European Federation to exist for hundreds of years.

Without him, the European Union would have become history before entering the 22nd century.

Unfortunately, only a few people understand Pino. In the eyes of more Europeans, he is an absolute traitor, a politician who betrays European interests for his political future, and a conspirator who has regressed Europe's political process for decades and has failed to get rid of his historical destiny.

Of course, these critics of Pino selectively ignored the most critical issue, that is, by making concessions on the issue of Britain, Pino won many benefits for the European Federation that he had never thought of, and expanded the boundaries of the European Federation by nearly one-third.

This is the secret agreement between Huang Hanlin and Pino on the Eastern European issue.
