The Fourth Disaster, Starting from the Movie Eight Hundred

"Do we have any choice? The Volunteer Army is at least willing to provide military protection, and they fight with real guns and live ammunition. But if we really face the Volunteer Army, how long do you think it will take for the German army to send support, or when will the support come?"

The president's staff were all silent, and Inonu also shook his head and sighed.

The city that the world desires, occupying it means that you will inevitably be involved in the world situation. There is no choice but to choose the lesser of two evils. At least the volunteer army is really at the front and will not sell out their teammates.

In comparison, between Daiying and the United States...it's better to believe in the volunteer army.

Subsequently, Türkiye, which was protected by the Volunteer Army, directly announced its joining of the World Anti-Fascist Alliance, which made the Axis camp furious and directly received two declarations of war from the three Axis giants.

Wait, two servings?

Yes, Japan did not respond at all, because it was unable to take care of European affairs right now. You can do whatever you want, we will try our best to help you here in the Pacific.

In other words, since you can't come to Pacific to help me anyway, everyone should take care of themselves first.

Germany and Italy had some complaints about this, but they were just complaints. Now they really could not provide any help to Japan. Similarly, Japan was also in a state of persistence. The Axis camp seemed to still have an advantage, but in fact it had fallen into the quagmire of war and could not continue to maintain its previous breakthroughs and victories.

One could even say that they have split, physically disconnected.

The sharpest knife to cut through the Axis camp is the Volunteer Army. Now, the Volunteer Army stationed in Istanbul directly threatens the Balkans, and seems to be ready to break through from here.

Because starting from here, the first country standing in the way of the Volunteer Army is Bulgaria, and then Romania. The combat effectiveness of these two countries is basically better than nothing. Although they are very strong locally, they are really not enough to face the Volunteer Army. At most, they can only waste some of the Volunteer Army's ammunition.

Romania is an important oil producing area for Germany, so with the appearance of volunteer troops in the Balkans, Germany had to divide its troops to defend Romania and Bulgaria, but the purpose of protecting Bulgaria was to make it a shield for Romania.

Bulgaria was well aware of this, but the locals did not want their country to become a battlefield, so they contacted the volunteer army privately, hoping that they could defeat Germany as soon as possible and then spread the war to Romania.

Their original words were: There is the oil that Germany needs most, and taking Romania will effectively weaken Germany.

But when these words come from the mouths of the Balkan countries, the meaning is no less than: If you want to fight, go fight them at home. They are a big country with a big business, and I won’t feel bad if they cause harm. Moreover, Romania has become weaker, which is a good thing for me. Come on, we support the just anti-fascist war in Romania.

Romania is not stupid. Everyone is in the Balkans and knows what kind of people their neighbors are like. But it is different from Bulgaria. It has what Germany needs, and Germany does provide the strongest military protection it can provide. With a lot of German troops protecting itself in the country, Romania will definitely not defect at this time. Instead, it must firmly declare that it stands on the side of the Axis powers.

At this time, the volunteer army received a request for help from a veteran Balkan guerrilla.

That’s right, he is Tito, the only ruthless man who could integrate the Balkan region while he was alive.

However, Tito's guerrillas, which had been doing very well in history, were doing quite poorly at this time. This was mainly because the German army had strengthened its control over the Balkans and intended to establish a new channel to attack the Soviet Union from here. This was also one of the reasons why Germany actively wooed Turkey, so the power invested in the region was naturally much greater than in history. Germany, which had integrated Europe, was currently in the limelight, and all European countries tacitly accepted that it was the future king. Many people had really accepted their fate. In addition, the Nazis were still far from being at the end of their rope, and their behavior was more anthropomorphic, which made it difficult for Tito's guerrillas to gain local support. They had a hard time, but they still survived tenaciously.

But just living like this was obviously not enough. After Tito learned that the volunteer army was stationed in Istanbul, he immediately realized that this was a precious opportunity for himself and all the countries and nations in the Balkan region.

Whether you can realize your ideals and ambitions depends on this one try!

Having made up his mind, Tito set out overnight in disguise. It took him 981 years to finally arrive in Istanbul. He then found the volunteers stationed there, stated his identity, and hoped to get their help.

"Didn't the Soviet Union give you any assistance? Not at all? You are a party organization under the command of the Soviet Union, right?" the volunteer army player asked curiously.

After all, not all players are well-versed in the history of every country, so it is normal that they don’t know about the various collaborations and dirty deeds between Soviet and Yugoslav party members and cadres.

"A lot of things have happened, and the Soviet Union can't give us any help now."

Tito's feelings towards the Soviet Union are very complicated. In the normal historical timeline, the Soviet Union did contribute to the liberation of Yugoslavia, but at the same time it also wanted to completely control Yugoslavia. Tito has always been wavering on this issue. This can be seen from the fact that Yugoslavia has become the intelligence exchange center between the red and blue camps. Yugoslavia does not want to take sides on this issue, and not wanting to take sides means that the Soviet Union did not handle its relationship with Yugoslavia well. Otherwise, even if Yugoslavia did not stand with the Soviet Union, it should have shown a certain tendency.

There is no doubt that it is the Soviet Union's paternalism that is to blame. The loving father really wants to be the father of the socialist camp.

In fact, Tito is also very nervous now. He is mainly worried that he will come here without authorization. The Volunteer Army has no plan to cooperate with him and has even drawn up a sphere of influence with the Soviet Union. If he does this now, it will be suspected of destroying the tacit understanding within the Allied forces. If he is not careful, he will be handed over to the Soviet Union, and then everything will be over.

But as the leader of the Yugoslav Communist Party, he had to take this gamble. The Yugoslav guerrillas were already on the brink of life and death. The Yugoslav liberated areas, which should have had more than 800,000 guerrillas in history, were now less than one-third of the area in normal history, with a total force of only 10,000, which was even worse off than the Central Red Army that crossed the grassland.

But after the Central Red Army arrived in Yan'an, it was reborn like a phoenix. China is so big, there are plenty of places to move around.

In contrast, the Balkan region only has a total area of ​​55 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 9.24 Tongliao areas and roughly equal to the area of ​​Sichuan and Chongqing combined. Don't even think about going to any flat place. The guerrillas there will only become targets of German armored forces and aircraft. They must and can only operate in mountainous areas, and then use these places as bases to constantly harass the German army.

But the resource output of mountainous areas is limited, just as you cannot expect Changbai Mountain alone to feed an entire province of Northeastern people.

It is said that a penny can make a hero fall, and Tito is in this situation now.

Now, he has said everything he can say, and it all depends on how the volunteer army reacts.

Section 242: US-UK Conflict

(First update here! I still have to be a machine slave today, ah~)

"The Volunteer Army welcomes all those who fight for a better future for humanity, and welcomes our Yugoslav comrades to join it."

Looking at the hand of friendship extended by the volunteer army representative, Tito decisively shook it tightly. He knew that he had made the right bet.

What he held was not just a hand, but the future of the entire Yugoslavia.

Soon, the Volunteer Army and Tito's Yugoslav guerrillas issued a joint statement, and the Yugoslav party organization formally established a cooperative relationship with the Volunteer Army. Also appearing in the newspapers were photos of Tito shaking hands warmly with representatives of the Volunteer Army.

Of course, the Communist Party of Yugoslavia did not break away from the leadership of the Soviet Union, at least it did not announce to the outside world that it would no longer live with the Soviet Union. After all, the Soviet Union was right next to it. This was a crucial geopolitical relationship. Tito still knew the importance of it. The hot spots can be seen from the characteristics of Tito's governance throughout his life.

There was nothing that could be done about it. To the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia was just a small, patchwork country. Without the signature of an external force, any neighboring country could have swallowed it up.

But this was tantamount to betrayal for the Soviet Union (a warning from Soviet paternalism), and Comrade Steel privately denounced Tito's behavior as "a betrayal of the Communist International and the most shameful betrayal of the Soviet Union's many years of assistance and alliance."

But then again, even if the Soviet Union was furious, what could it do? The failed Operation Bagration had severely damaged the Soviet army's elite forces, and the German army's morale had soared. Moreover, the German super tanks that appeared on the battlefield were something the Soviet Union could not resist at this stage.

The solution proposed by Soviet military experts was to either replace the suicide squads with planes and bombs, or to fight back with weapons of the same level. There was no other way.

Of course, there are still many ways to simply paralyze the super tank, but these methods require huge sacrifices as a basis. At least you have to have a few combat divisions that can hold the line and are not afraid of sacrifice to act as bait. It also depends on whether the German army will be fooled.

Anyway, this matter is particularly difficult to deal with now, so Yugoslavia’s "betrayal" can only be put aside for the time being. The Soviet Communist Party did not express any opinion on this and chose to remain silent.

if not?

Punishment is ineffective. Winning over is out of reach. Money alone cannot buy a reliable ally, especially when your ally has other ruthless people living in his house.

At this time, silence is the only option to ensure that there will be no further embarrassment. Although it is embarrassing, at least everyone can save face, and the Volunteer Army will not deliberately embarrass the Soviet Union.

Even so, Comrade Steel did not sleep well that night, because he knew that an armed force with decisive power had appeared in the Balkans. It was like a magic needle that could stabilize the sea. If things went wrong, it might force the entire Balkan region to become a complete country. The unique geographical location here determined that neither Europe nor the Soviet Union wanted a centralized power to appear here.

But now the situation was stronger than the person, and Stalin had no choice but to accept it.

The Soviet Union's silence was seen by other countries as tacit consent, like a man forgiving his girlfriend even though she cheated on him by the truckload.

Churchill, in a rather sour speech to the British House of Commons in Canada, said: "The Volunteer Army has successfully driven a nail into Europe's soft underbelly. The whole of Europe is now Jesus on the cross, and they can do whatever they want with it."

But players didn't really have such complicated thoughts. After all, it was all for the anti-fascist cause. Tito's Yugoslav Partisans were a reliable ally, after all. There was no reason not to unite with them.

Although there were some subspace noises within the Allied forces, they generally tended to actively publicize the offensive launched by the Volunteer Army in Europe. Many American and British soldiers privately said, "With the Volunteer Army fighting against Germany in Europe, I will most likely survive the war."

In order to avoid being excluded from European affairs after the war, the United States and Britain began to actively plan a landing in Europe.

But the two sides failed to reach an agreement.

Britain considers itself an important maritime fulcrum of the European continent, and the British people are also staunch anti-fascist fighters (so they think). It is most cost-effective to liberate Britain first and then use Britain as a springboard to liberate Europe.

According to British politicians, we are the unsinkable European aircraft carrier.

It is good that the United States has consciously placed Britain in a subordinate position to the United States.

Just kidding, the UK still has some of the spirit of the British Empire. Saying this only increases its value in the eyes of the United States. After all, the UK cannot take back its homeland by relying solely on Canada's industrial capacity. At present, the most powerful naval force of the Allies is the US Navy. Although the volunteer army is powerful, Britain's decision has not affected the opponent's capabilities.

On the contrary, the volunteer army has been hanging around in the Indian border area. Now the various states in northern India have begun to become dishonest and are showing signs of falling apart. This is not what Britain wants to see.

So no matter what happens in the future, the UK must now actually cling to the United States.

The US military reasoned that, with similar resources invested in landing operations, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to land in Europe all at once? As for the naval threat, was the German navy a threat? The small boats left behind by the British when they surrendered were a real bargain for the Germans. Don't mistake small boats for ships; some of them were even privately traded to you by the Americans.

What's more, landing in Britain is only the beginning of entering Europe. Britain's isolation overseas is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The Britain-first policy is equivalent to the United States landing in Europe twice. On the contrary, if the whole of Europe is taken over by us, then while ensuring the maritime advantage, the German army in Britain will definitely choose to surrender. As for the German forces deployed in Britain, they can be restricted by a slight naval blockade, so landing directly from France is the most cost-effective.

But at this moment, Roosevelt spoke.

"Liberate Britain first, then march into the European continent."

Since President Roosevelt said so, others naturally had no choice but to obey.

Roosevelt had deeper political considerations for doing this, one of which was to send the British royal family back.

Interesting fact: The United States actually pays much more attention to the Americas than to other regions.

This is America's backyard. The Monroe Doctrine is the underlying logic of the U.S. national policy. America must belong to the Americans, their granary, mine, and plantation.

But the arrival of the British royal family changed the situation here.

Canada is indeed very big, but the cohesion of this country is actually worrying. It is said that the United States is a loose federation, but Canada's situation is actually worse than that of the United States. The reason why there are no major problems is mainly because Canada's latitude is high, the population is small, and the contradictions are not obvious. This land where Britain and France once shared glory is not short of British and French descendants who look down on each other. It is true that the United States has poor ability to withstand pressure, but Canada is even worse. Without the United States to protect the Americas, Canada will be shattered by any external pressure.

But after the British royal family came to Canada, the situation here changed.

The royal order of the old era was also an order, and could bring unity and stability. If you don’t believe it, just look at the front-page headlines in Canada in 2025. It was about the British king awarding a big sword to a Canadian guard. This shows that the royal authority is very popular in Europe.

So, the situation that worried the United States happened. Britain was integrating Canada's resources at a very fast speed, and even calmed down the original conflicts within Canada. Although they still existed, they were not as sharp as before. The whole of Canada was united under the banner of the British royal family, which was something the United States did not want to see.

I drove the Japanese away, and right after, our neighbor became Britain. Don't you know that believing in God and cursing the British is an American tradition? The United States absolutely cannot accept the emergence of a world power next to it. This will threaten its existence.

That's right, it's the kind that threatens the existence of the United States and will shake the foundation of the country. America's independent spirit and universal values ​​are too young. Facing the ancient old order, its only advantage is to keep a distance. Once the distance is close, it will be like facing the whispers of the subspace. Ordinary people can't stand it at all and will become British in minutes.

That’s not right. There are many Irish people in the United States. Don’t they hate the British?

There is certainly hostility, but the question is how much of it there is. If a war breaks out on its doorstep against Britain, what are the chances of the United States winning? The British flag, the symbol of the British Empire, still holds some value, but how much does it hold for other Americans? The United States cannot be sure.

It is normal for young people to hate and fear the old lions of the past.

There are still many voices of returning to the homeland within the British government that has been transferred to Canada. However, once they feel the benefits of living in mainland countries, these people will not want to go back. The British royal family will take root directly in Canada and make it a new homeland. That will be the beginning of a nightmare for the United States. It may even be taken over by Britain. This is not impossible, but very likely. The cultural structures of the two sides are highly similar. As for religious beliefs and the conflicts between Puritans and British Christianity, they can give in in the face of greater interests, and God will thank you for your coin.

This is why Roosevelt wanted to liberate Britain first. He saw the farther and longer-term impact. War must serve politics, and experienced politicians must see the possibilities ten or even twenty years later.

Those who can surpass fifty years are considered exceptional, and there is only one such person in the world today.

However, when conducting external propaganda, one certainly cannot simply say "British, take your king and get out of here!" Instead, one must talk attentively about the interests of the US and UK allies, while privately stating that the US hopes Britain can dominate Europe, creating opportunities for the US to intervene in European affairs in the future, hiding the real purpose under seemingly huge interests.

Didn't anyone in the UK see this?

Of course there are, but under the pretext that "the United States can interfere in European affairs through Britain", the interests of the two are easily confused. After all, the negative impact of Britain on the United States in the Americas is long-term, and long-term plans will encounter situations where plans do not change quickly, that is, uncertainty. However, intervening in Europe to gain greater benefits can be seen immediately. The benefits of real money are there, and giving you a piece of gold every day, obviously the former is more impactful.

The result is that some people in the British government feel that something is wrong, while others have thought of the right direction but have gone astray under the misleading influence of the United States. In addition, there are strong voices within the British government calling for the recovery of the homeland, so the thinking about this possibility has stopped here... right?

This is true under normal circumstances, but how could Liu Qi, who was determined to make trouble for the Americans, not notice this? -p

Want to drive the British away? No way!

How do we do this?

It’s actually very simple. Who is actively pushing the British government and royal family to return to their homeland?

Answer: Churchill.

The loss of the homeland is a political stain that is difficult for Churchill to wash away. Many politicians who oppose him also use this as an attack point. However, it is impossible to take back the homeland without relying on the power of the Americans. Therefore, Churchill actually became a comprador of the Americans, maintaining his regime by selling out the interests of Britain. Moreover, he has sold more now than in history, which has caused dissatisfaction among many old Union Jack aristocrats. The only way to solve this dilemma is to "return to the old capital."

Those who were already tied to Churchill had no choice but to follow him to the end.

These people are the "local return faction" forces in the current British political arena. It is very simple to deal with them, just kill Churchill.

But directly assassinating Churchill would easily backfire. The Germans cannot take the blame, as that would allow the British restorationists to take the opportunity to make a fuss about Churchill's death. They must fall covered in mud.

"Let me give you some devil's gifts."

Chapter 243: Which bastard did this?!

(Second update! What an exhausting day!)

If you don’t do special research, few people would have thought that Canada’s oil reserves rank third in the world.

Surprised or not? Is it surprising? Not happy?

Anyway, the United States is particularly happy. According to data from 2020, 98% of Canada's crude oil resources flowed to the United States.

Canada's main oil producing area is Alberta, whose oil sands resources account for 97% of Canada's total oil reserves.

One of the important reasons why Canadian oil is not as well-known internationally as Middle Eastern oil is that oil sands are heavy crude oil with high density and high impurities.

Comrades who often work in laboratories know that impurities are definitely the most incredible existence in chemical experiments. They can be said to be all-encompassing. This is reflected in the difficulty and high cost of oil extraction. Compared with the light crude oil in the Middle East that can spray out by itself after drilling a hole, the extraction cost is more than three times more expensive.

In addition, Canada is so close to the United States. If it does not want its own oil to breed mold, its only option is to supply it to the United States at a low price. The United States is also very kind and has lowered the price to almost the cost price. The reason why Canada does not suffer a loss in supplying is because American capital has invested here.

Now, Liu Qi is ready to make a fuss about this.

For example: let Canada's heavy crude oil gush out by itself, turning it into a self-flowing oil well that can be exchanged for money by just driving over to collect it, instantly increasing its crude oil extraction efficiency by more than ten times.

It's very simple. All we need to do is tamper with the geological structure beneath the oil. The technology that can exchange homes between China and the United States is simply to make the oil spray out by itself. It's so easy.

What would the British royal family think if Canada had such terrifying economic benefits?

If Japan can change the name of Australia to Orb, it seems to be no more difficult for me, the sovereign country of Canada, to change the name of Canada to Britain. We have oil as resources, oil as industry, and oil as trade. With such a vast area and the advantages of two oceans, it is definitely an enhanced version of Britain!

Although the best land has been occupied by the United States, Britain can rely on Canada to become great again.

"This is God's gift, right? America blessed by God, hahahahahaha!"

Amid Liu Qi's villainous laughter, the dimensional ship's multi-dimensional space manipulation technology began to modify the geological structure of Alberta, Canada. Soon, with a huge roar, Canada reached its climax.

The spectacular oil spraying scene first scared the locals. After confirming what it was, the locals immediately fell into ecstasy, and all kinds of news began to fly around.
