Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

For a period of time after the ground-effect aircraft was successfully developed, Bao Zixuan did not rest at all. He was always dealing with people of different personalities and nationalities. For him, this was a more tiring job than doing research and development.

After arranging the company's affairs, Bao Zixuan seemed to disappear for a while. It was only known that he was going on vacation, but no one knew where he was going or what he was doing.

But for some people, being able to rest for a while is already a luxury, and Bao Zixuan is very satisfied with it. Now he must enter the next stage of work, because the long-awaited thing has finally happened.

The Malvinas Islands, known as the "Falkland Islands" in the United Kingdom, are an archipelago located in the South Atlantic Ocean. The main island is located about 500 kilometers east of the southern coast of Patagonia, South America, at about 52° south latitude.

The entire archipelago includes East Falkland Island, West Falkland Island and 776 small islands, with a total area of ​​12,200 square kilometers. The Falkland Islands are territories seized by the United Kingdom using force. The people on the islands have internal autonomy, and the United Kingdom is responsible for their defense.

and foreign affairs. The capital of the islands is Stanley, located on East Falkland Island.

The discovery of the Malvinas Islands and the subsequent history of European colonization are controversial. France, Britain, Spain and Argentina all established settlements on the islands. Britain reaffirmed its colonial rule in 1833, but Argentina still claimed

Have sovereignty over the island.

On March 19, 1982, a group of scrap hardware dealers hired by the Argentine authorities forcibly landed on South Georgia Island, 1,390 kilometers east of the Falklands. They established a camp on South Georgia Island and raised the Argentine flag. The British Royal

The Navy's icebreaker Endurance was dispatched to dismantle the camp,

The Endurance was armed with only two 20mm Oerlikon cannons and carried two Wasp helicopters. With a platoon of Marines, it was intended to drive away these Argentines who were raising the flag and singing the national anthem. However, the 5,000-ton Argentine Navy

The Happy Bay had already landed 100 soldiers, and the Endurance had to turn back.

Argentine Navy Commander Johei Anaya, Galtieri's best supporter, was responsible for formulating the plan to land on the Falklands with his consistent anti-British stance, also known as "Operation Rosario". The initial scale was as follows: amphibious landing.

The troops numbered 3,000. With their superior strength, they overwhelmed and surrounded the few garrisoned on the island.

The Royal Marines and local police force them to surrender to reduce unnecessary casualties; after the occupation is successful, the prisoners of war and residents on the island should be deported; the occupying troops should complete the task of withdrawing to their original garrison within 48 hours. The highest administration of the Falklands

The official position was changed to a military governor, and 500 military police were assigned to carry out military rule.

At the beginning of 1982, after the failure of diplomatic mediation between Britain and Afghanistan, and the unsuccessful return of the small Endurance, the operational plan was finally determined. In fact, the prelude to the capture of the Falklands had always been through the exchanges between ham enthusiasts.

was exposed, and the Argentine navy began to transport troops on board in the port of Belgrano. Despite various signs indicating Argentina's intentions, the Latin American group of the British Joint Intelligence Committee still believed on March 30 that "an act of aggression will not be imminent."

On April 2, 1982, President Galtieri ordered the dispatch of troops to occupy the Falklands, and the Falklands War officially broke out. Britain was initially surprised by Argentina's attack, but quickly responded diplomatically to put pressure on Argentina.

No one thought that the Argentines would dare to attack the British troops on the Falklands. Even if the British Empire has lost its former glory, it is still an old empire and a developed country. Although its armaments have dropped a lot from their peak, they are not comparable to Argentina.

Now that the Argentines actually dare to break ground on Tai Sui Tong, the British can only prove their strength in a battle. Otherwise, other regions will follow suit. In the future, the influence of the British Empire in the world will become weaker and weaker, and no one will take you seriously.

.

In London at this time, the mood was very different. Although not everyone was sure where the Falkland Islands were, the British authorities soon talked themselves into a state of righteous anger. Sovereign British territory was being invaded,

The insult to the country's honor and the disrespect shown to the Argentine nation show how far Britain's national status has fallen.

In the spring of 1982, support for Thatcher's government was at an all-time low. Rising unemployment and inner-city riots, combined with her perceived lack of empathy, had made Thatcher an electoral recidivist. According to British Broadcasting

The company reported that declassified documents decades after the war showed Thatcher described the invasion as the worst moment of her life.

The United States was Britain's largest ally, but at the height of the Cold War, the United States was more concerned about containing communism than helping to safeguard Britain's overseas interests. Galtieri may have been a brutal dictator, but in the eyes of the U.S. government

, he was anti-communist and, therefore, an important leader in South America. President Ronald Reagan quickly dispatched Secretary of State Alexander Haig to London to explain the American perspective to the Prime Minister.

After receiving the attitude and support of the Americans, the Iron Lady could be said to be extremely confident; she immediately began to deploy troops and generals to prepare for the use of force against Argentina.

At the same time, Bao Zixuan in Xiangjiang was certainly not idle. As early as after the successful test flight, Heiyun Group began to secretly produce related parts for ground-effect aircraft. At first, Mike Briffen did not quite understand it; now it seems that the original boss

It had been planned for a long time, but how he knew it has always been a mystery.

Now Heiyun Group is able to assemble three ground-effect aircraft, and the construction has already started. Bao Zixuan knows that although Valenko-Ustikhov should have some arrangements in Argentina after his reminder, these can only be found for the British.

The trouble will not affect the war situation at all. It can be said that the war in the previous life did not last long, and it will not last long in this life. Now the British need all the materials that can provide convenience for the war, and the ground effect aircraft is definitely a big killer.

Governor Sir Youde came to the Black Cloud Group for the first time. This time he was accompanied by Major General Richard, the commander of the British Forces in Hong Kong. They came here for the ground effect aircraft. It can be said that the breakthrough is imminent.

.

When Sir Youde held the swearing-in ceremony for the governor, Bao Zixuan was on vacation abroad. Therefore, this was the first time that the two people met, but their names and introductions must be familiar to each other.

Bao Zixuan: "Welcome Governor Youde to visit Heiyun. It's a pity that I couldn't attend your inauguration ceremony."

Youde: "I'm sorry, I've long wanted to come and take a look at Heiyun, the number one company in Hong Kong, but I've never had the chance. But the more critical the moment, the more important a company can be reflected. You should know

That’s why we came here!”

Bao Zixuan: "If your Excellency the Governor came alone, you wouldn't have guessed it. But since General Richard appears here, it means that the Hong Kong government wants the Black Cloud Group to contribute to the war."

Richard: "What Mr. Bao said is right. The military wants to requisition the ground-effect aircraft that Heiyun Group is conducting test flights on, and it also hopes to be equipped with flight technicians. But please rest assured that the ground-effect aircraft only undertakes strategic transportation tasks."

, will not participate in the war."

Bao Zixuan: "How many units does the military want?"

When they heard this, both of them were stunned. How many units were there actually? Don't you only have one unit being tested now?

Richard: "Could it be that the Heiyun Group now has many ground-effect aircraft? It would be great if that were the case."

Bao Zixuan: "The former Governor MacLehose informed me of London's intentions when he left. They requested that the first two ground-effect aircraft produced by Heiyun Group be sold to the relevant British departments. Later, with the addition of wealthy people from the United States, the Middle East and other

The order made the ground effect aircraft in short supply. Although the test flight has not yet ended, I have absolute confidence in the Heiyun product, so I placed a production plan order for 3 units before the product test flight was completely completed.

I heard that Bao Zixuan was so courageous. He dared to spend so much real money just because he wanted to place an order. It seems that there are quite a lot of rich people in this world, and the young man in front of him is definitely one of them.
