Marvel Plane Trader Chapter 129

  Chapter 129 Entrance to the sea

   "What a pity!" On the terrace of Neuschwanstein Castle, Josie sighed and put down the newspaper in his hand.

  The content in the newspaper is exactly the news about the nuclear barbecue activities in the six cities of Jiaopenji.

  These six cities are Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Kyoto, Kokura, Niigata, and Nagoya.

   There is no Edo.

   This is why Josie sighed.

   But there is no way, increasing the number of nuclear bombs dropped to six is ​​already the ultimate he can do by using his relationship.

  Out of the United States' own interests and political considerations, Edo is still excluded from the scope of nuclear bombing.

However, the situation in Edo is not better than the original situation, because before the Weimar meeting, the famous barbecue master Li Mei, just like the original time and space, dedicated an exquisite and delicious barbecue to Edo .

  Because the European War ended early, it was convenient for the Allied forces to deploy more air forces to the Pacific region.

  So the scale of barbecue is larger than the original time and space.

  Although the temperature of the fire was much lower, it was still around 1,000 degrees.

  Many acquaintances expressed their happiness.

  It is a pity that the recruiting boys still haven't enjoyed this taste.

   But it doesn't matter, it's just a recruiting boy. As one of the leaders of Hydra, Josie expressed that he doesn't believe that this guy's life can be harder than Roosevelt and Melody, and there will always be a chance in the future.

  Anyway, this is the Marvel Universe. Even Manhattan can be bombed by aliens, and nuclear barbecue activities are almost carried out. Why can't Edo carry out more times?

  Throwing the newspaper aside, Josie got up and walked to the side of the tower, looking down, the wonderful scenery among the mountains and forests made him feel refreshed.

  In the courtyard of the castle, there are a group of workers working in full swing.

  He came here three days ago.

   I have to say that as long as the manpower and materials are sufficient, and the workers are given a second thought, the work efficiency will be extremely high. In less than half a year, Neuschwanstein Castle was half completed.

  This efficiency is much better than the labor efficiency of workers who were always on strike during the period of Ludwig II and the labor efficiency of later generations.

  By next year, I can basically bring Margot and the older two babies over for vacation.

   On the opposite side of the mountain, the (old) Goschwanstein Castle has been refurbished long ago. After all, Goutschwanstein Castle is not as big as Neuschwanstein Castle, and it needs to be more complete, so the time required for renovation is naturally shorter.

   "Boss, it's done!" Just as Josie was looking down at his territory, Ophelia rushed up excitedly.

   "Did Maoxiong agree to our terms?" Josie turned around and asked.

   "Yes, as long as they get the complete technical information, they will acquiesce in our actual control over the Slovenia region!" Ophelia replied excitedly.

   "That's really a good thing!" Josie also had a bright smile on his face when he heard the words.

  Although almost half a year has passed since the end of the European part of World War II, it does not mean that all disputes are over.

  The Cold War confrontation between the two camps of the East and the West has caused many small countries to still struggle again and again.

   Among them, Yugoslavia in the Balkans is one of them.

  Like many countries, during World War II, Yugoslavia was also divided into the Homeland Army faction that supported the Yugoslav Kingdom-in-Exile government, and the Federation faction headed by the famous Iron Emperor.

  In the original time and space, the Homeland Army led by Draca Mikhailovich attempted to surrender to the British and American occupying forces in Italy and Austria, which were close at hand, in order to preserve the continuation of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia at the end of World War II.

   But it is a pity that in the original time and space, the military power of the Austrian main bear was extremely strong. Britain, the United States and other countries did not want to pluck the fierce bear's beard just because of the motherland army, and sold the motherland army directly.

  So the Homeland Army headed by Mikhailovich was directly sold by the Allied Forces, and the Homeland Army was completely trapped in the encirclement of Mao Xiong and Tie Dadi, becoming a lone army.

   and was completely wiped out in 1946.

  However, just after World War II ended and the Hydra Legion in Yugoslavia had not been completely wiped out, the Austrian army was one step ahead of the Iron Emperor and contacted the Homeland Army and King Peter II of Yugoslavia who lived in the UK.

   expressed his willingness to accept them and help them re-establish the Kingdom of Yugoslavia—of course, it must not be a complete kingdom. Josie is not crazy enough to go to war with Iron Emperor and Bear because of this matter.

  However, it is still possible to establish a small kingdom of Yugoslavia in some areas such as Slovenia.

   And this matter has also been tacitly approved by the United States.

   Undoubtedly, this is an adventurous act that will anger the Iron Emperor and cause dissatisfaction from Mao Xiong.

  But this risk is worth taking for Josie, Austria, and the United States.

why? Because of the estuary.

  The importance of the estuary to a country is basically known to anyone with a little common sense.

  The original Austria was a completely landlocked country.

  Bavaria is also an inland region.

  After the merger of the two places, although the national strength will inevitably increase significantly, the lack of a seaport will obviously greatly hinder the development of New Austria.

   If Austria wants to enter the sea, it can only expand to the south.

   And there are only two countries in the south of it, one Yugoslavia and one Italy.

   There is no doubt that Italy, which surrendered to the Allied Forces earlier than Austria, is now hugging the Americans' thighs very tightly, and Austria can't do it at all.

  In this case, the only thing left is Yugoslavia, and Slovenia and West Croatia have become the top priorities.

Coincidentally, the existence of the Motherland Army gave Austria and the United States an excuse to do something. In order to get the support of the United States, Austria also went out of its way to agree to the United States. It doesn't hurt to wake up.

  As for the original owners of this area, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the Homeland Army—do they have a choice?

absolutely not.

   Emperor Tie was very tyrannical towards them, he would kill them immediately if caught.

   On the side of Austria and the United States, they lose most of their control over the country.

   fell into the hands of Emperor Tie, and he couldn't even save his life.

   It was also because of this matter that at the Weimar conference, the representatives of Mao Xiong and Iron Emperor also broke up with the United States and Austria for a time.

  Ophelia even had a private fight with a representative of Mao Xiong, who was also a woman.

According to Ophelia's description, it's hard for Josie not to connect the woman named Claire Vaillant in her mouth with the Black Widow—it's just the first generation of Black Widow, shouldn't it be Dottie Underwood? ?

  In addition, the two armies confronted each other very seriously in Croatia—but it was mainly the confrontation between the Austrian army and the Iron Emperor's army, and Mao Xiong and the United States did not end up directly.

   After all, World War II has just ended, and the United States is doing well. Mao Xiong is far from recovering at this time.

  However, the situation of all this changed when six American children went to the foot pot chicken to hold a barbecue meeting.

   There is no doubt that Mao Xiong is a little anxious now, so much so that he sold the Iron Emperor and agreed to Josie's conditions in order to obtain information on nuclear weapons.

  Of course, Emperor Tie might not be able to compromise so easily, after all, this is the first leader in Mao Xiong's camp who dared to confront Mao Xiong.

  But as long as there is no Mao Xiong's support, Tie Dadi alone can't turn the tide.

  Anyway, even if Josie doesn't interfere, Yugoslavia will inevitably disintegrate in a few decades. This land is not as cheap as Josie.

   "Prepare the plane immediately, I'm going to see Eisenhower!" Josie was very happy with Mao Xiong's retreat, so he immediately prepared to take action, but instead of rushing to deliver materials to Mao Xiong, he was planning to buy a warship.

  With an entrance to the sea, it is natural to have a navy.

  It's just that Austria, as a landlocked country, doesn't have any shipbuilding industry—if you don't count the small shipyards for inland rivers.

   But when he was in Hamburg, Josie had quietly found a good shipyard, but building a warship is not that simple, it costs money, effort, technology, and most importantly, time.

  So they could only buy it from the beginning, and Josie's first target naturally hit the German fleet that had just been divided by the Allied forces.

  Of course, the German fleet itself doesn't have many ships, so Josie doesn't have much choice.

  But there is one warship that is easy to get, and that is the auspicious ship assigned to the US Navy, the Prinz Eugen.

  Although the relationship between Josie and the U.S. Navy is not very good, buying a warship does not require the approval of the Navy Department, just go to Eisenhower directly.

   What's more, the Prinz Eugen, a non-U.S. standard warship, is of little significance to the U.S. Navy—otherwise, why would it be used as a target ship for nuclear bombs in the second year after the war ended?
