Chapter 253 Strategy

Although the Chinese government has not disclosed the secret treaties signed with the European Federation, many people even believe that the official information published by the European Federation later was forged because they were all unilateral official information and there was no evidence to suggest that it was a secret treaty reached with China, but there is sufficient reason to believe that China and the European Federation must have reached a secret treaty when the war was about to end, and it is very likely that it was a secret treaty in oral form, without written texts. Therefore, the European Federation only published records.

The problem is that the two national leaders received completely different evaluations.

After the war, Europeans' evaluations of Pino were almost the opposite. Even if they did not call him a traitor, they believed that he had brought the European Union on a wrong path of development. However, in China, Huang Hanlin was positive, and his status even surpassed that of the founding fathers.

In fact, no matter what the two did, it was not their personal problem, because what determined the relationship between China and the European Federation was definitely not the personal wishes of the two politicians, but the comparison of strength between the two countries, the strong took all, and the weak kept weak.

Of course, Huang Hanlin is definitely a politician with superb skills.

This can be seen from how he treats the European Federation.

At that time, China's secret agreement with the European Federation was not only aimed at Britain, but also at Russia and CIS countries in Europe.

According to top secret information released by the European Federation, Huang Hanlin made great concessions on the Eastern European issue in order to dismember Russia. First, he terminated the unification agreement between Russia and Belarus and restored Belarus's highest status. Second, he recognized Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova and the Baltic as the sphere of influence of the European Federation, and would abide by the European Federation to annex these countries. Third, he urged the post-war rebuilt Russian government to ced the Kaliningrad region to the European Federation, which was originally part of Germany's East Prussia. Finally, China did not seek to dominate Russia and would share Russia's strategic interests with the European Federation.

For Pinot, this is definitely a pie that fell from the sky.

It can even be said that Pino was knocked unconscious by this huge pie.

You should know that even if the six countries including Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia are not included, plus the area of ​​Kaliningrad is equivalent to one-third of that of Western Europe, which is equivalent to expanding the land area by one-third after the European Federation unified the European continent.

In history, the territory of the Roman Empire in Europe was not so wide.

Of course, this is not the only benefit.

In order to obtain these benefits, the European Federation must accept China's policy of treating Russia, that is, after the war, dismembered Russia into thirty-four countries. The preserved Russia is only the European region west of the Ural Mountains and the Volga River, and the Asian part will be divided into thirty-three countries.

In this way, what China and the European Federation share is only Russia in Europe.

As for Russia's Asian part, it will be all included in China's sphere of influence, and the European Federation cannot enter.

Obviously, Pino would not object.

To put it bluntly, even without the support and default of the European Federation, China will dismember Russia and ensure that none of the new countries has become a big country, even the capital of a regional power, fundamentally eliminate the threats to China's local areas and comprehensively improve China's strategic security environment.

It is related to local security, and China will never have any ambiguity.

You should know that in this war, one-third of the fallen soldiers in China were related to the mainland war, and forty percent of China's war expenditure was spent on the mainland battlefield.

As the only superpower after the war, China will definitely not tolerate threats to its own country.

Obviously, Pino had no way to object to this matter, so he could only follow the opportunity and take advantage of some visible benefits.

At that time, the most obvious benefit was not territorial expansion, but pushed the border line eastward for thousands of kilometers.

More importantly, sharing Russia's post-war interests with China is equivalent to establishing a strategic buffer zone of more than 1,000 kilometers deep between China and the European Federation, which greatly improves the strategic situation of the European Federation and allows the European Federation to not worry about threats from the east. This means that in the next unified action, the European Federation can focus on Western Europe.

It can be said that this is the biggest benefit.

However, when Pinault happily swallowed this huge pie, he ignored the question: Is the European Federation so big a appetite?

By this time, it is actually not difficult to see Huang Hanlin's strategy to curb the European Federation.

To put it simply, it is to cheer up the European Federation and make this not-so-large balloon explode due to its rapid expansion.

On the issue of the United Kingdom, Huang Hanlin's biggest concession was actually to default on the European Union to achieve unification by force.

It can be said that this is a very clever move.

This war not only completely defeated the United States, but also awakened the Western world, especially the Europeans who have been bathed in the sunshine of peace, making them realize that only a powerful country can defend its interests and that no weak country has no room for survival.

As long as Europeans choose to be more than rely on China, they must seek strength.

Obviously, Europeans will not depend on China.

In this way, Europe must develop strongly, and the basis for its strong development is to establish a large country with a vast territory and a large population, which must achieve unity.

Objectively speaking, as long as the strategy is right, within twenty years after the end of the war, the European Federation will be able to unify other countries on the continent by peaceful means, and there is no need to adopt means of force conquest, because most Europeans have realized that there is no future without unification.

At this time, look at Huang Hanlin's strategy and you will find that he had actually given the European Federation a dose of poison.

Of course, this is a chronic poison that won't be immediately fatal.

It is reasonable to believe that the mistakes made by the European Federation before joining the war, that is, the misinformation obtained after the referendum in Liechtenstein at the end of 2055, and the subsequent dispatch of troops to Slovakia, are all credits to China and are likely to be the masterpiece of Chinese intelligence agencies.

At this time, the European Federation took the wrong step.

The fatal consequence of this is that most people in the European Federation believe that if the means of peace are ineffective, it is impossible to unify the European continent by force.

Of course, it takes some motivation to turn this awareness into action.

Huang Hanlin's tough stance on the UK issue is the first driving force, because this is equivalent to warning the European Federation that since its strength is not strong enough, we should not fight against China. Then, concessions on the Eastern Europe issue are another driving force, or temptation, which not only makes the European Federation ambitious people think that there is a chance to grow rapidly, but also does not have to worry about direct threats from China for the time being.

The result is very obvious after pushing and pulling.

The second year after the war ended, the European Union troops crossed the Pyrenees and invaded the Iberian Peninsula, opening the prelude to the War of Unity.

Although under China's default, the European Federation completed the great cause of unification at an extremely fast speed, and placed the entire Western Europe in its territory, and then conquered Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, allowing Russia to ced Kaliningrad, after this series of conquests, the European Federation had sowed the seeds of destruction for itself.

You must know that dozens of nations unified under a political system will never live in harmony.

Not to mention, in this political situation, the three major states, France, Germany and Italy, are taking turns to take over the banker, and most other states have no say.

Can such a European Federation be considered a powerful country?

Perhaps, it is very powerful on the surface, but it is extremely fragile on the inside.

The problem is that the European Federation has more than this burden on it, and its expansion has not stopped after reaching the Dnieper River.

At this point, we have to mention the third secret agreement reached by Huang Hanlin and Pino, namely the Mediterranean issue.

Although the Roman Empire had long been buried by the dust of history, every European has a Roman Empire that will never die deep in his heart.

In a sense, this is also the biggest difference between Europe and China's history.

In history, the only one who truly unified the whole of Europe was the Roman Empire. This Roman Empire was regarded by all Europeans as the greatest empire in history. Otherwise, there would be no second and third Roman Empires, otherwise the emperors of the Second German Empire would not call themselves "Caiser", otherwise the Habsburgs would not regard themselves as the orthodox heir of the Roman Empire, or the Tsar would not regard himself as the heir of the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire), or there would not be so many European historians to study the Roman Empire.

On the contrary, in Chinese history, there are countless dynasties and empires that unified the country, and there are several that have been ruled for a long time. If we count from the Qin Dynasty, in China's more than two thousand years of history, three-quarters of the time were unified under a dynasty, and there was not much time for division. The result is that the Chinese regard unification as something they are accustomed to, and inconsistent is truly abnormal.

Obviously, in Europe, unification is an abnormal thing, and division is the normal phenomenon.

It can be said that since the Napoleonic dynasty, the European Federation is the only country that has emerged on the European continent that has the potential to unify the entire Europe and reach the historical height of the Roman Empire for more than two hundred years. The result is that the ambitions of the European Federation are very likely to expand rapidly under external stimulation and temptation.

Huang Hanlin's cleverness is that he quietly inflated the ambitions of the European Federation with extremely hidden means.

This method is to make money with the Mediterranean Sea. To be precise, to be honest, to make money with the Arab countries that believe in Islam on the southern coast of the Mediterranean Sea.
