The news of the Battle of Hawaii shocked the world as soon as it was heard. The British Times called it "the battle to lay the foundation for the king of the Pacific", which was extremely praising.

This battle destroyed Citi's arrogant mentality of winning the world's boss. It slapped back to its original form and repositioned its status as a North American country. The so-called American country's leading dream was almost shattered.

Although the news reports are exaggerated, they reflect the attitude of the UK from the perspective of the situation.

As the well-deserved overlord of the world today, Britain is deeply vigilant about Germany, which provoked itself militarily and the United States, which surpassed itself economically.

The Ocean Empire gave Citigroup a fierce moment, which made Britain feel like it had eaten ginseng fruit, with 36,000 pores all over its body revealing the word "comfortable".

Don’t blame the dark psychology of Britain, and the world’s hegemony cannot be provoked or coveted.

If the Ocean Empire had the strength to beat the German Navy, then... the British, who had always been reserved, could jump up ecstatically and offer a kiss.

Citigroup's strength has been severely weakened, which is also a situation that Germany is willing to see. Germany and the United States compete fiercely in the economic field and are rivals, so they hope to see both sides suffer losses.

Of course, this result is also good.

The always arrogant German Emperor William II seemed to have met Li Fushou for the first time and spoke out in public. Yes, I like him, yes... This is a guy who often brings us surprises.

After this battle

The status of the Ocean Empire in the international community soared sharply. No one thinks that the Ocean Empire is an island at the end of the world. People there are rude and ignorant, born by herding sheep, and are a place that European civilization cannot shine.

European media public opinion is full of praise, and reports about the Ocean Empire are also positive. This is respect for a world power. In today's world, it is not enough to have money. The real decision of the right to speak is military power. The Ocean Empire just shows respectable strength.

Early 20th century

The world generally recognizes that the Royal Navy is the most powerful in the UK and dominates the world and is unrivaled.

Germany's rapidly developing high seas fleet is strong and steadily sitting at the second place in the world. This is undisputed and widely accepted by countries around the world.

But this third position, not a few years after entering the 20th century, has been changing several candidates for several times, but no one can sit for too long.

Originally, Tsarist Russia built warships with a large number of francs loans, surpassing the French navy and ranking third in the world's navy. Unfortunately, the battle of Vladivostok in Japan and Russia returned to its original form, and since then it has become a joke.

The Fusang Navy stood out and was considered the third strong competitor in the world's navy. Unfortunately, with the huge investment of Citiland's 14 battleships in the past three years, it quickly became yesterday's yellow flower.

Nowadays, the Ocean Empire has taken the lead with the corpses of Citi Kingdom. Its fierce combat power has been recognized by the world. Although it is still inferior to Citi Kingdom in the total number of battleships, it has been recognized that the naval strength ranks third in the world, second only to Britain and Germany.

The suspense now is...Who ranks the fourth naval power in the world?

The traditional naval powerhouse France is counted as one, Fuso country is counted as one, and Citi country is counted as one. This is a topic of 3-choice 1.

Why is Citigroup a competitor?

The news of the annihilation of the Battle of Hawaii was sent back to Citigroup, and a pot of cold water was poured on the rising emotions of the people. After a brief silence, the people's anger drowned the White House. The newspapers were full of accusations and abuses, and those with ulterior motives fanned the flames. The grieving soldiers' families and the Texas cowboys were full of scolding and scolding, which further exacerbated the chaos of the situation.

At this time, many separatists jumped out to act, attacked the government, abused the president, and further divided the social groups. This argument was prevalent especially in California and Texas, and New Mexico was also involved in raging public opinion.

In the final analysis

Citiland is a white immigrant country. It has no main ethnic group that has passed down for a long time. It has been established in a short time. The western, central and southern states have only been in the pocket in recent years. The history has been forty or fifty years, and the history has been short for only three or four years, and the foundation is unstable.

If the country is expanding its territory smoothly and the domestic economy is prosperous, Citi State has the ability to unite the whole country, establish a strong sense of belonging and patriotism among the Chinese people, and use time to slowly clear the gap between each other.

If there is a crushing defeat, the cracks within society will gradually expand...

It has to be said that Theodore Roosevelt was a tough and extremely courageous president. After realizing the social crisis, he immediately took action and strongly promoted Congress to pass the "Act on Restricting and Confiscating the Assets of Hostile Countries", and immediately frozen the stocks and accounts of Citigroup listed companies held by the Ocean Empire Royal Fund, and launched a vigorous inventory, and announced that it would use the confiscated assets for a war that was about to face more difficult.

This move of disasters is effective in moving eastward, guiding the anger of the people in the country towards the culprit of launching the war... Li Fushou, the dictator of the Ocean Empire, has to be said to be a trick to survive in death.

Under the deliberate exaggeration and guidance of the Citigroup media, Li Fushou, the monarch of the Ocean Empire, was portrayed as a tyrant full of ambitions and greed, with nearly infinite desires for land and wealth, and now he has extended his hand to the beautiful and firm who loves peace...

at the same time

President Roosevelt took advantage of the president's privileges during the war and forced the large West Coast dock to launch all the unbuilt civilian ships on the dock, build 13 battleships at one time, and waved checks to European military-industrial enterprises to purchase weapons and equipment.

September 25

Citiland announced the second war mobilization, which was 50 infantry divisions, vowing to build the west coast of North America into a solid Pacific barrier, discouraging any enemy.

The Citigroup Navy is laying mines in Pacific coastal cities in Seattle, Washington, Portland, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, and San Jose day and night, building shore artillery fortresses, and building reinforced concrete defense systems to prevent the Oceanic Imperial Army from landing on North America.

Based on the above

Therefore, the Citigroup Navy cannot be excluded from the fourth place in the world, but it has not defeated the Ocean Empire Navy in one day. Even if it has many battleships, it must be ranked behind.

The news of the victory of the Hawaiian Sea was sent back to China, which immediately ignited the strong patriotic enthusiasm of the people of the Ocean Empire. The excited cowboys in the southern state raised their guns and fired wildly into the sky, expressing their ecstasy.

In local and overseas cities, people holding celebrations sang and danced, set off firecrackers, danced dragons and lions, and raced dragon boats. Every household was as happy as the festival, with the pride and pride that could not be concealed in their eyebrows.

All the public opinion institutions in the empire carried out full publicity, and exciting clips of the naval battle were published in newspapers. For a time, Luoyang paper was expensive and everyone rushed to see it first.

The empire also carried out the second war mobilization. After recruiting the first batch of 100,000 conscripts, the second batch of 220,000 conscripts was launched. At the recruitment sites across the country, young people who enthusiastically joined the army lined up.

There are many touching scenes in this. The veteran who once participated in the Moresby blocking battle brought his three sons to the election. The newly married wife sent her husband to the election. The nobles of the military and martial arts family brought their children to the election. The students from the entire class of the Chicken Eagle School gave their pens to join the army...

Both sides are ready to fight, and a more severe test of war has not yet arrived.

The countries that signed the Military Alliance Treaty also took practical actions. A regiment of Lanfang Kingdom had arrived in Qingdao, and the Ryukyu Kingdom would send troops to a division, including two infantry regiments. A advance battalion of the Yue Kingdom had arrived in Manila and was about to participate in the expedition of the Pacific Alliance.

Amidst the chaos, Argentina was not willing to be lonely and forcibly introduced the "Wartime Act", unreasonably confiscated the property of Chinese businessmen, deprived of personal freedom, and put Chinese immigrants into concentration camps. After the Citigroup cruiser arrived in Buenos Aires, it became even more arrogant and arrogant.

Crazy clamor; the Pampas grassland is the cemetery where the Tang people are buried, and there are as many as they come...

One day in early October 1908

Daming Palace

In the solemn Tai Chi Palace, the Emperor of the Ocean Empire, Li Fushou, personally presided over the royal ceremony and awarded the visiting Prince of Wales, George, the highest-level Knight of Honor, to become one of the members of the Knights of Honor.

This is a noble honor of the same level as the British Knights of Guard. Li Fushou personally served as the head of the Knights of Glory. His members are adult princes, kings, crown princes and empires with outstanding contributions to the military and political leaders. To this day, only three people have received this honor.

The first one is former Prime Minister Fan Changjun, the second one is General Conrad Adenauer who established the Imperial Army, and the third one is General He Fang, the minister of the Admiralty. From this we can see how valuable the Knights of Honor is?

After the ceremony

Li Fushou had a private secret talk with Crown George, and the two sides exchanged simple greetings and later talked about it.

"Dear George, I have asked about the UK's opinions privately many times, hoping to join forces to teach Citi Cowboys a lesson. Now I still have such expectations. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, the Citimen's lobbying group in London is very powerful, and the relevant proposals are still alive and cannot be passed in the House of Commons."

"That's really a pity, George, I know that Britain doesn't want Citibanks to be too strong, and at this point the Ocean Empire fits perfectly with London's interests. So, at the right time, I'm happy to see California or Texas independent, what do you think?"

"I personally agree with you very much, and the same is true of the London government."

"Hahaha...Is this a tacit understanding?"
