Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up
Chapter 1903 Africa Strategy 1
Because of historical deviations, the Soviet Union is stronger than in its previous life. In addition, Mr. Bao deliberately slowed down the disintegration of the polar bears. At this time, there is no sign of division at all. But outsiders really can't find anything wrong with it!
The plan was disrupted once, and now it is going to the Soviet Union; it is not of great significance, at least there is no need for the richest man Bao to come forward in person. Because of large capital injections, the Soviet Union could persist for a while. However, Bao Shoufang knew very well that it was a bottomless pit; the building was about to collapse, and it was not possible to save it with manpower.
Africa is the abbreviation of Africa. There are many interesting legends about the origin of the word Africa: One legend is that in ancient times, there was a chief named Africa who invaded North Africa in 2000 BC and established a The city was named Africa, and later people called this large area Africa. Another legend is that Africa is the name of a goddess worshiped by the Berbers living in North Africa. This goddess is a patron saint. It is said that as early as the 1st century BC, the Berbers discovered a statue of this goddess in a temple. She was a young woman wearing elephant skin.
In ancient times, when the homeland of the Western colonialists was still in the stage of glaciation, there was already a boiling life on the African continent. At that time, the Nile River Basin was still a swamp that was uninhabitable; the Sahara Desert, which is now uninhabited, was at that time a forest and grassland crisscrossed by rivers. About 10,000 years ago, the climate in North Africa changed dramatically, and the savannah gradually became dry and turned into a desert.
The Egyptians developed astronomy very early and formulated the earliest human solar calendar that was quite accurate. The solar calendar has three seasons and four months in a year, with each month having 30 days, with an extra five days added to the last month as religious holidays. It can be said that this is a continent with splendid civilization and splendid culture; it has a very long history.
However, in modern society, the situation in Africa is extremely bad; it is not an exaggeration to describe it as horrific.
Since Western colonialists invaded Africa in the 15th century, more than 400 years of colonial rule have brought serious disasters to the African people. Since 1, Western colonists have trafficked more than 20 million black Africans to the Americas as slaves. These slaves were treated inhumanely and most of them died within 15 years. Western powers also used force to seize African land and resources, then completely divided Africa and established barbaric and cruel colonial rule. Before World War I, all countries in Africa, covering more than 30 million square kilometers, except Ethiopia and Liberia, had become Western colonies. The killings of African people and the plunder of African wealth by colonialists and imperialists are too numerous to describe.
The African people waged a long and arduous armed struggle against the invaders and created countless heroic deeds that can be praised and praised. After the end of World War II, the struggles of the people of various African countries against colonial rule and for national independence flourished and achieved major victories. In the late 1950s, the number of independent countries in Africa increased from three before World War II to the 1950s, and the independence movement in Africa was in full swing. The national liberation movements in various countries united, cooperated, and supported each other, allowing most African colonies to gain independence.
The departure of the colonists was only superficial imagination, but their influence was everywhere; it was just not shown. Instead, he began to support agents, and there were more than one. Therefore, in modern society, Africa always gives people the impression that it is economically backward, wars are frequent, and the situation is turbulent!
It seems that apart from these, there is really nothing else to be found; fortunately, God has not completely abandoned Africans. While giving them strong bodies, they also left enough land for them to live a prosperous life.
During the period when farming was the mainstay, the land in Africa was barren; basically everything was planted but nothing lived, and nothing raised was raised; therefore, life was not very satisfactory, and even miserable! But since entering the industrial era, the rich mineral resources underground have become particularly precious.
But having wealth is one thing, but the ability and strength to protect wealth is particularly critical; the rich mineral resources underground have become the source of evil; European powers have been plundering the African continent for hundreds of years.
Although the situation was better after the end of World War II, at least the slave trade stopped; and it has become a red line, a forbidden area that no one dares to touch. If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is a truth that has not changed since ancient times. A new round of competition on the African continent has begun unknowingly.
It's just that more countries are participating, and some are stronger.
Without all of the above, even a powerful family like the Rothschilds would not dare to pursue anything.
If you want to control a sovereign country, you must have the right time, location, harmony, and luck.
This is one of the reasons why the Rothschild family approached Bao Zixuan to cooperate. Strength was only one aspect; the most important thing was to take advantage of Bao Zixuan's incredible fortune.
It is a bit exaggerated to say that one is superstitious, but more of seeking a kind of inner comfort; the Rothschild family also believes in fate, and perhaps no one is immune to this.
After leaving Germany, Bao Zixuan came to the African continent; but he did not go straight to the target location. Instead, he chose Egypt, the oldest country on the African continent and the former leader of the Arab world.
As one of the four ancient civilizations, there is no doubt about Egypt’s history; being the oldest in the Arab world is really intriguing!
According to normal thinking, if you want to be a big brother, you must be rich; but Egypt is an exception. Egypt has no money; not only does it have no money, it also owes a lot of debt; it doesn't even have enough food to eat.
As a large country with a population of over 100 million, Egypt has almost no decent industry; it cannot even be self-sufficient in agriculture, and its domestic food production cannot even meet one-tenth of domestic demand; it relies on imported food all year round.
After World War II, nationalism surged in the Arab world, and many Arab countries became independent. In contrast, although Egypt has been under British control for a long time, it has maintained nominal independence and has a certain light industry foundation. Its comprehensive national strength ranks first in the Arab world.
Therefore, after the establishment of the state of Israel, Egypt was the first to jump out against Israel, and led Syria, Jordan and other countries to join forces with Israel, and thus became the overall helmsman of the Arab world.
After Nasser took power, he immediately demanded the withdrawal of British troops stationed in Egypt for more than half a century. Later, under the pressure of international public opinion, the British troops withdrew from Egypt, but still retained control of the Suez Canal.
As a strong man of the generation, Nasser certainly did not want the British army to stay on; so he forcibly nationalized the Suez Canal, triggering the second Middle East War.
In the second Middle East War, Britain roped in its old enemy France and Egypt's sworn enemy Israel; they jointly launched an attack on Egypt, and the Egyptian army retreated steadily.
But at this time, the world was no longer dominated by Britain and France. Britain and France's control of the Suez Canal seriously threatened the hegemony of the United States and the Soviet Union. Therefore, with the joint intervention of Washington and Moscow, Britain and France were forced to withdraw their troops and hand over the Suez Canal.
The result of Egypt taking back the Suez Canal greatly inspired the Arab world, and the popularity of Nasser and Egypt reached its peak.
Because Nasser was more ideologically inclined to socialism, he actively maintained close relations with the Soviet Union and continued to fight with Israel with the assistance of the Soviet Union.
However, until Nasser died of illness, the Egyptian army failed to defeat Israel and regain Palestine.
1Seir died of illness, and his deputy Sadat took over as President of Egypt.
After Sadat came to power, he asked the Soviet Union to increase assistance to Egypt; but the Soviet Union refused, and the relationship between Egypt and the Soviet Union deteriorated.
Seeing that the Soviet Union was unreliable, Sadat turned around and defected to the West. Not only did he establish a paramilitary alliance with the United States, he also reconciled with Israel and became the first country in the Arab world to establish diplomatic relations with Israel.
The establishment of diplomatic relations between Egypt and Israel angered the entire Arab world; before this, Egypt under the leadership of Nasser had always been regarded as the leader of the Arab world and a hero against the Jews; Egypt became the leader of the Arab world precisely by virtue of its war with Israel.
But now Sadat actually braved the disapproval of the world and left his brothers in Palestine and other Arab countries to reconcile with Israel alone. The saliva of the Arab world and even the Islamic world directly flooded Egypt.
To be fair, Sadat also had his own helplessness. He knew that Israel could not be defeated; if it continued to harden Israel, the Sinai Peninsula would definitely not be taken back.
Furthermore, the Egyptian military, which pursues secularization, has not yet completely dealt with the extremist religious forces in the country. Sadat needs to end external interference as soon as possible and concentrate on domestic secularization and economic construction.
Facts have proved that Sadat's decision was very wise. The reconciliation with Israel allowed Egypt to successfully take back the Sinai Peninsula. However, Syria has never reconciled with Israel. As a result, the Golan Heights is still occupied by Jews.
However, Sadat also paid the price with his life. He was assassinated by an Islamic extremist.
After Sadat's death, his deputy Mubarak came to power; Mubarak continued the diplomatic policy and secular national policy of Sadat's era, and Egyptian society entered a period of stability.
Heiyun Group has an office in Egypt. At this moment, Bao Zixuan is listening to reports from his subordinates on the situation in Africa and Egypt!
