Chapter 98. Let the nuclear explosion be more violent!

"...What kind of situation is this? The Irish jumped back? Then they got into a mess with the US and British coalition forces?"

On the 30-ton super giant ship "Ocean Oasis" sailing in the South Pacific, Wang Qiu was lying under the sun umbrella of Class A on the top floor, drinking a cocktail mixed with freshly squeezed tropical juice, while looking at the newly received A piece of European battlefield information, he couldn't help muttering with a strange expression.

However, if you think about it carefully, it is also the instinct and way of survival of many small countries in this world to act according to the wind when the overall situation is unfavorable.

As the saying goes, "Husbands and wives are originally birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes." Someone may be able to show loyalty to both sides of the brother, but if it is a country, loyalty is not as important as survival. You should sell your teammates decisively, and it is right to stop the loss by dumping the pot.

What's more, between Britain and Ireland, there is no such thing as a loving couple, but a pair of bitter and bitter enemies!

From the tragic Irish famine in the last century (only half of the 400 million Irish people were left after the famine, it was a hundred times worse than any three-year natural disaster, and Queen Victoria deliberately refused to allow disaster relief, and even searched for food from the disaster area, I want to starve as many Irish people as possible so that I can make room), until the Irish War of Independence more than 20 years ago, the Irish people remember clearly the bloody and tearful accounts.

Moreover, the Irish do not lack the courage to fight, although their army is indeed not very good.However, in the difficult confrontation with the British Empire before the founding of the People's Republic of China, many talents and warriors were trained. If you want to say that the father of terrorist attacks, Ireland's Sinn Féin is definitely well-deserved. In the [-]th century, they were thinking about using suicide submarines to attack Hit the battleship of the British Empire!Both Al Qaeda and ISIS have to call them teachers.

Previously, the reason why the Republic of Ireland joined the Allied Forces was because it saw the imminent collapse of Nazi Germany, and the United States used free aid to lure it, coupled with various soft and hard methods, the Irish government followed the trend It formed an alliance with the United States and Britain, declared war on Germany and Italy, and actually did not send a single soldier.But since you want a signboard of a victorious country, you have to do something for the Allied forces, so you temporarily leased several domestic ports to allow the US military to use them—of course, only for the US military to use during wartime, and the British The army still refuses entry.

However, what the short-sighted Irish never imagined was that the flames of war on the European continent did not go out with the collapse of Nazi Germany and Fascism in Italy. Instead, they intensified with the fighting between Britain and the Soviet Union, and finally evolved into World War III!This greatly violated the original intention of the Irish hitchhiking as a victorious country. The entire Republic of Ireland never thought of shedding blood for the British from top to bottom.

Therefore, after the outbreak of the Third World War, the Irish government has been reluctant to declare war on the Soviet Union. No matter how much the United States and Britain try to coerce and lure them, it is useless.After the nuclear explosions spread all over the UK and the mushroom harvest was bumper, the Irish government was even more silent, lest the US troops stationed in the country would cause disaster for itself.

Therefore, out of the consideration of not wanting to be dragged into the water by the British, and even more worried about not wanting to be hit by a Soviet nuclear bomb, the Irish government hastily made a reckless decision-November [-] AD On April [-], Irish President de Valera made a public speech, officially announcing that the Republic of Ireland would remain neutral in the Third World War, and at the same time ordered the expulsion of the U.S. troops stationed in Ireland. You can play whatever you want. President de Valera's speech was leaked by pro-British and pro-American elements in the government before it was officially announced.

Both Truman and Churchill were surprised and angry about the above-mentioned betrayal of Ireland: Since the outbreak of World War III, Truman has been very worried about the defection of the allies, because the overall situation of the battlefield is really unfavorable to the American and British allies, and everyone below is worried Playing drums, seeing that there is only effort and no return, I don't want to follow hard anymore.If someone takes the lead to withdraw from the alliance and withdraw from the war, and is not punished, I am afraid that other allies will follow suit immediately, triggering a chain reaction, eventually leading to an avalanche of diplomatic disasters, and the entire "free countries" camp. collapse.

But Churchill's worries went even deeper.In any case, after all, Ireland and the United States are separated by the Atlantic Ocean, while Britain and Ireland have been bad neighbors for thousands of years.Right now, it seems that the British Empire is not going to work, and the Irish are in a hurry to get rid of the relationship. If the Soviet army crosses the sea and lands, wouldn't it be true that the Irish have always hated the British Empire? last knife?

——In the Napoleonic Wars and the First World War, for the British Empire, the Irish played the role of stabbing traitors. (The Irish at the time took advantage of the time when the British army was on the mainland to launch armed uprisings, and there were more than these two times.)
It is really unreasonable. Under the rule of Queen Victoria, you Irish people had the same status as Indians.As the saying goes, it is better to be with outsiders than to be a domestic slave.Even if the British Empire is doomed to decline, it is not just any cat or dog who can take a piece of it.If the tiger doesn't show its power, do you still think we are sick cats?
Therefore, in order to prevent the fire in the backyard and the avalanche reaction of the allies, on the day President de Valera ordered the expulsion of the US troops stationed in Ireland, the United States and the United Kingdom intervened decisively-the [-] British Army and some National Guards who retreated to Northern Ireland Immediately cross the border and head south, heading straight for Dublin.At the same time, the British Mediterranean Fleet, which had just been recalled, forcibly rushed into the Irish Sea, shelling and bombing the port of Dublin.The U.S. Marine Corps, which had been stationed in the ports of Cork and Galway before, also launched armed provocations at the same time, restraining the mobile forces deployed by the Republic of Ireland in these places.Unexpectedly, the response from the United States and the United Kingdom would be so fierce, and neither the government nor the army was ready for a war. The Irish Republic, caught off guard, resisted for only three days before Dublin fell. President de Valera was in the capital. Killed by stray bullets in the street.After dismantling the central government of the Republic of Ireland, the United States and Britain re-established a puppet regime in Dublin as a white glove to rule Ireland.

However, although the Allied forces easily overthrew the Irish government in Dublin, they were unable to extinguish the flames of traditional Irish national hatred.The puppet government established by the United States and Britain in Dublin was hardly recognized and supported by any local forces in Ireland.And a large number of British civil militants named "National Self-Defense Forces" who were actually bandits and robbers burned, killed and looted everywhere in Ireland, which aroused the anger of the locals.

As a result, the Irish Republican Army, a veteran terrorist organization that had been suppressed by the Republic government for a long time because of its radical anti-British, quickly rose up in such a turbulent chaos. The western part of Ireland suddenly had a large base area, and the "Irish National Salvation Revolutionary Government" was established in Limerick on the Shannon River.

At present, these veteran anti-British fighters are launching guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare on the island of Ireland, while urgently seeking help from the Soviet Union.

For these "awakened anti-imperialist and patriotic Irish people", Comrade Stalin, the iron and loving father of the Soviet people, also expressed his joy. Although there were not many spare troops available in a hurry, he still organized a French volunteer army to go to Ireland for reinforcements.At the same time, he ordered the formation of Soviet strategic bombers to attack again, and dropped an atomic bomb on Belfast, the capital of British Northern Ireland, the newest seat of the British wartime cabinet, as the most powerful assistance to the Irish Republican Army... um , Such a nuclear explosion assistance is indeed the most powerful in this world today.

Although Prime Minister Churchill escaped again because he happened to go to the newly captured Dublin for inspection, the city of Belfast failed to escape the catastrophe, killing and injuring as many as 10 people in an instant in the nuclear explosion.More than [-]% of Churchill's wartime cabinet government team was finished.

What is even more unfortunate is that the body of the old King George VI, who died not long ago, had not yet had time to be transported back to England for burial, but was temporarily stranded in the Belfast palace where he died of illness by accident. There were no bones or ashes left in the explosion... For this reason, Princess Margaret, who has not officially ascended the throne, is the future Queen Elizabeth II, and her mother, Queen Elizabeth, can only cry Then she collected some clothes and daily necessities left by her father during his lifetime, and set up a clothes grave in the backyard of Windsor Castle, so hastily.

At the same time, on the Japanese battlefield on the other side of the world, the U.S. troops stationed in Japan, who have been fighting bloody battles for a year, finally ushered in their final moments...
