Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

In fact, because of the advance warning of Xia Yu, the British government was more prepared in this life than it was unbelievable after being attacked in the previous life.

For example, the British military has stored a large amount of combat supplies in the base of Ascension Island, 5,600 kilometers away from the Falklands, and the military base on South Georgia Island, 1,300 kilometers away from the Falklands.

It can even be said that the British military has already done countless deductions, waiting for Argentina to do it, ready to seize this opportunity to show the muscles of the United Kingdom.

Trying to breathe a sigh of relief for the UK's declining influence in the world!

So after Argentina issued an announcement to the world, the British government responded extremely quickly.

Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher held a grand press conference for the first time, personally announced the severance of diplomatic relations with Argentina, and at the same time formed a wartime cabinet, issued a series of orders, without any cover up!

That afternoon, the British Royal Navy, which no longer had a large aircraft carrier, formed two small aircraft carriers HMS Invincible and HMS Athletics to form a task force, and set sail from Portsmouth Harbor, with the anger and determination of the British people, to rush. to the Atlantic Ocean.

Four nuclear submarines based on Ascension Island in the Atlantic Ocean also headed towards the Falklands at full speed.

In addition, many British warships participating in the NATO exercise in Gibraltar also sailed to the theater. This formation will join the aircraft carrier formation in the Atlantic Ocean. After the rendezvous, there are 21 combat ships, 20 Sea Harrier fighters, 58 Helicopters of various types and 3,500 marines.

On April 3, before the British troops arrived on the Falkland Islands, the British government issued a strong announcement to the world, declaring that the area of ​​200 nautical miles around the Falklands was a "sea restricted area", and any Afghan warships and auxiliary ships entering the area. All ships will be attacked.

It is undoubtedly extremely arrogant and domineering to warn Argentina in advance before an army like the United Kingdom has arrived in the theater. "Argentine President Galtieri.

Galtieri is also violent, and directly declared that Argentina has the ability to defend the country's territorial sovereignty and integrity, and any aggressor will be defeated by the heroic and invincible Argentine soldiers!

In less than two days, without even fighting a war of words, the contradiction between Britain and Afghanistan broke out directly and embarked on the road of war.

The whole world was shocked, and they cast their sights on the small island in the South Atlantic Ocean.

And Xia Yu, who was watching TV at his home in London, couldn't help showing a smile of anticipation after seeing the news.

I don't know how many days will it take for the UK, which is fully prepared, to defeat Argentina in this life?

...

The entire British public opinion was then dominated by news of the Falklands War.

The news of Xia Yu's major newspapers with sufficient preparations is the most timely and detailed.

Readers didn't notice it at first, but the news was very timely for several days, and the quality was much higher than other newspapers, which made the British people subscribe to relevant newspapers one after another, and the sales of the newspapers controlled by the Bright Fund soared.

Not only the United Kingdom, but also other European countries, newspapers controlled by the Bright Fund also use the high-quality news channels of Jiuding News Agency to compete for the market.

On April 5, the British nuclear submarine formation began to implement the blockade after arriving at the theater.

April 6,

The British fan-hunting patrol aircraft arrived at the theater and began patrolling.

On April 9, the vanguard of the fully replenished British fleet arrived at the theater.

On April 15, the British task force entered the waters of the Falklands and launched.

Because the Ascension Island base and the South Georgia Island base have always had sufficient combat supplies, a lot of time for material transfer and base construction has been saved.

The deployment of enough aerial tankers and sufficient fuel in the South Georgia base also enables the British combat aircraft to sail in the airspace of the Falklands for a long time.

Only thirteen days!

The British army has completed the deployment of the sea and air blockade of the Falkland Islands, which is separated by half the world and thousands of miles away.

This speed shocked the attention of all countries, and many countries have reassessed the strength of Britain.

After World War II, John Bull, whose military strength has been declining for decades, still has such a powerful ultra-long-distance projection combat capability, and his war mobilization and deployment capabilities are so superb!

Compared with the United States, France, West Germany, island countries and other countries that were simply shocked, Argentina's shock is different. It can be said that it is not exaggerated!

The Argentine military government was under enormous pressure, but in the face of the turbulent national conditions, Galtieri did not back down and remained strong in front of the media.

It's a pity that the British did not give Galtier an insider.

On April 16, the war finally began.

Nine British strategic bombers flew to the Falkland Islands at 4:30 a.m. and dropped 150 bombs weighing up to 1,000 pounds. They carried out a comprehensive attack on the two airports urgently constructed by Argentina on the island, as well as mine explosions and buildings. The bombing, all the buildings were blown up, and when the morning sun hit the island, all the satellites photographed were the ruins.

All the military buildings on the Falkland Islands were destroyed, and the troops deployed on the island were also cut off from supplies. Galtieri, the commander and president of the Engineer Corps, who had never been on the battlefield, woke up at this time.

However, the Argentine military, which has lost air superiority, did not give up its struggle. The main battle plane took off from the land airport 740 kilometers away from the Falklands.

However, the endurance of these fighters in Argentina is not strong, and the air control time in the airspace of the Falklands is less than 20 minutes, and the actual combat effect is greatly reduced.

But fortunately, the Argentine Air Force is all elite, the pilots are highly skilled in combat, and the standard equipment of the Argentine Air Force is also made in France, which is not weaker than the British equipment, so it was evenly matched with the British Air Force in the first sky war.

The Argentine navy also dispatched on a large scale, rushing to the Falklands with supplies to compete with the British navy in the waters.

And Galtieri did not forget to ask for help. He frantically called the United States, hoping to get support from the United States, but there was no response to all the calls.

Unbeknownst to Galtieri, Margaret Thatcher was already on the phone with Ronald Reagan, and that the United States' Atlantic geostationary satellites were transmitting daily intelligence about Argentina and the Falklands to the British fleet.

Margaret Thatcher received information from the battlefield that she had returned home and learned that Argentina relied on legal equipment to fight the British army. She immediately called on the leaders of European countries that sold arms to Argentina.

In the early morning of April 17, France "broke" Argentina, announcing that the previously signed arms export project was suspended.

Immediately afterwards, West Germany, the Netherlands and other countries also issued statements to stop all strategic equipment and material transactions with Argentina.

Argentina's military equipment and ammunition reserves are facing unprecedented challenges. Galtieri had to make a national speech, indicting the joint sanctions imposed by developed countries on Argentina, and then ordered all factories in the country to be temporarily converted into military factories to produce all military equipment. Materials and equipment require workers to perform their duties and contribute to the country.

The Argentine nationals, who were excited to take back the sovereignty of the Falklands half a month ago, finally realized how bad the situation was.

It is a pity that at this time, the British intelligence system has begun to be manipulated in Argentina, causing many riots in Argentina.

For a time, Argentina's internal and external troubles were extremely serious!

The balance of victory is tipping towards the British side at a rapid rate!

Xia Yu, who has been learning about the latest situation from far away in London, is very happy.

The more efficient the British army fights, the sooner the war ends, the better for him!

...

During the half month in the UK, Xia Yu was not idle either.

He sorted out his assets in the UK and made many adjustments to strengthen his control and influence over companies in various fields.

In his spare time, he also visited Warwick Castle, which was bought from the Cavendish family, and arranged renovation and repair work according to his own opinions.

Afterwards, he made a special trip to the Cavendish family, visited Porter Philip Cavendish, Duke of Devonshire, and brought some Romanée Conti and Latour wines as gifts. deepen their relationship with each other.

Of course, gifts are given to the Duke of Porter Philip Cavendish, and there is no reason why they would fall behind on Duke Carter Howard, Prince Philip and Duke Ian Campbell. In the face of friendship, a little expensive wine is nothing.

Moreover, if it is said that these big men like Romanée-Conti and Latour wine, it will definitely greatly improve the reputation of Romanée-Conti and Latour wine in the UK, and Xia Yu will make a lot of money!

PS: Too much chapter, it is really bad where to break.
