European Financial Emperor

210 War (2)

After Britain was unified, they agreed to join Easterfield by establishing a republic.

France and Belgium were the only places in need of cleanup now.

Until now, France believed only in the northern British artillery, conscripted infantry, and carried out acts of force such as a policy of moving south toward Spain.

Lee Hwan himself led the army and marched into France.

He crossed the French border with the world’s most powerful army of 30,000 fourth-generation tanks and 500,000 artillery and infantry.

In addition, even the invincible fleet and carrier squadrons symbolizing Easterfield were all besieging France.

Now, if Lee Hwan said just one word, France would become a complete wasteland.

It took only two days for Lee Hwan’s army to advance to Paris, France.

When he arrived in Paris, France, the remnants of the remnants had encamped and stood to block their advance.

“This is the heart of our France! I can never give it to you guys!”

“We have no intention of harming the French youth. Instead of handing over France into the hands of the people, they are just trying to punish arrogant politicians and rotten people who claim to be the leaders themselves.”

“But you guys are armed and besieging us! Isn’t it absurd to cry for peace like this?”

When the man who appeared to be the representative of the defeated soldiers gave a Japanese speech, the soldiers began to agree with his will.

Lee Hwan thought that words did not work for them.

“You have built up a city that has been devastated by our silver work, and you have set the stage for becoming a great economic power again. Nevertheless, it was not enough to attack our Easterfield, causing a European war. Your actions will never be forgiven.”

“You mean you’re going to kill us?!”

“If your military wants that much, I will kill only the top leaders.”

“Chief?”

Lee Hwan raised his hand, and the snipers who were waiting for his signal aimed at the soldier who seemed to be the representative of the defeated army.

Soon, Lee Hwan lowered his hand.

Taang!

“Wow!”

The leader of the rebels was pierced on the spot and vomited blood.

The faces of the soldiers looking at him were colored with astonishment.

Lee Hwan gave the soldiers another chance.

“What are the sins of the soldiers? All this is the fault of politicians and senior officers. If you take your own war criminals and their followers, you will see no more blood. It will also return all of France to its citizens and restore its sovereignty. This is the promise that I and our allies make to you.”

The weight of Easterfield I’s name is truly enormous.

If he declares that he will protect France, no other country in the world can touch them.

Upon hearing such a declaration by Yi Hwan, the soldiers began to disappear from the front line one by one.

“What, what are you doing?! Come on, don’t stay seated… … .”

Taang!

French soldiers blew holes in the heads of officers who encouraged them to defend the lines.

It wasn’t just to save his life.

He just didn’t want to waste his flowery youth in this goddamn war that didn’t know what the purpose or goal was.

The line collapsed in just 30 minutes.

Citizens and soldiers began to capture war criminals, and the flies went on to purify themselves.

***

The time when Lee Hwan occupied France.

The Belgian army, which was in a confrontation in Easterfield’s overseas territory, began to be gradually pushed back by the wave of the tank corps.

Cyrillic… … !

“It’s a train! Avoid everyone!”

“Shit! Where did you come up with such a monster?!”

It was a science and technology that was impossible to comprehend.

If the Belgians had only enough firepower to counter tanks, they wouldn’t care what the difference was.

However, the Belgian army lacked the strength to counter the automatic rifles, let alone Easterfield’s tank corps.

What the hell did you do with that monster tank, even in a battle between infantry?

The Belgian army is starting to be pushed back without any help.

Then they came face to face with Easterfield’s allies, the Dutch Army.

Although the Dutch army was less than half of Easterfield’s science and technology, it was armed with technology that was more advanced than that of Belgium.

They even had early tanks.

“A tank is coming from behind!”

“… … Damn, the tanks are coming again?!”

It was a situation in which there was no real hope.

There was no promise that the Belgians would be able to survive even if they did all they could to break through the flanks.

It was because self-propelled guns and mortars were still pouring out fire from the rear.

Only then did the Belgians realize how foolish their actions were.

“… … I want to gnaw away my head.”

“Everyone will die like this! You have to make a decision somehow!”

The flames of the subordinates urging for a decision rained down.

Meanwhile, far more grim news came from behind.

That was the exposure of the commander.

“Commander! Parliament has been blown up, and His Majesty is said to be dead!”

“… … what?!”

Belgium was a force that refused to restore the monarchy, but it was not an exemplary force for nobles to give up their power.

If they had a more stable political base and slowly pushed for separation, their appearance would have changed a lot.

However, they fell into their own conspiracy and lost everything.

In the end, the Belgian expeditionary force surrendered.

“Tell them unconditional surrender. I order all the soldiers to disarm and raise the white flag.”

“… … Yes, I understand.”

Officers in some cases committed suicide while defending their own pride, but even that was not a very high rate.

In the end, Belgium had no choice but to disband its troops with unconditional surrender.

When the army was disbanded, Elizabeth I immediately absorbed and unified Belgium.

With him, Elizabeth captured all Belgian war criminals and sent them to an international tribunal.

***

Austria recognized Switzerland as a permanent neutral and agreed to set up an international tribunal in Zurich.

Austria also gave up the empire and changed its position to a tyrannical monarchy based on reunification with Germany.

Now, as promised with Easterfield, Austria has decided to lay the groundwork for peace.

The International Court brings together 600 legal experts from all over the world to adjudicate international law.

From now on, the law will be decided here, and international law has decided to check for absurdity once a year through a legislative conference.

The basic law of the Legislative Council was that two members of the Council were required to be sent from every country in the world, and that if they created a faction, they would be punished.

With him, the United Nations, or the United Nations, was founded with the Easterfield Federation as the head.

The United Nations worked for international peace and order, and could also take military action by creating coalition and peacekeeping forces if necessary.

Thus, the United Nations, which was founded, decided to take the lead in establishing world order together with the International Court.

The international community longed for the creation of an institution that would take charge of living as these two institutions, the United Nations serving as the international police and military, and the International Court of Justice serving as the judiciary, were established.

In 1841, the international community declared the end of the European War and at the same time established the International Bank, UB.

UB created a currency basket based on Central, the current international reserve currency, and created the International Monetary Fund.

In the spring of 41, Lee Hwan visited Switzerland to declare the end of the war.

hum hum… … !

To celebrate today’s declaration of the end of the war, delegations from all over the world attended and the declaration ceremony was quite crowded.

– All guests in the hall, please take a seat. Let me say it again… … .

After the end of the war, with the advent of international law, illegal trespassing or aggression was no longer recognized.

In particular, if an act of expanding territory through imperialism or looting or annihilating a neighboring country is discovered, peacekeepers can immediately mobilize and destroy the country, so it is an era where diplomacy is more important than force.

Building such diplomatic power is none other than making as many allies as possible, and by securing economic power through trade and financial exchanges, more diplomatic cards can be stockpiled.

All the countries of the five oceans and six continents gathered in this declaration of the end of the war have entered into a fierce diplomatic battle starting from today.

When Lee Hwan stepped on the stage, people paid attention to him.

“Today we have an important time to bring peace to Europe, where blood has never dried up. I hope today’s declaration will serve as an opportunity to never repeat painful history again. Also, I hope that this land, property, and all inheritances that we will pass on to our descendants in the future stand upright.”

After giving a short speech, he opened the golden scroll.

Inside were written words declaring peace in Europe.

“On March 11, 1841, in the name of the United Nations and the International Court, I declare the end of the war. From this time on, no military action is permitted, and as of this time, disputes over territorial expansion will be regarded as military actions. Also, any action that undermines peace will not be tolerated. We will now become one and lead the international community.”

“Wow!”

The European continent, longing for peace, was finally able to achieve that wish.

***

Immediately after the declaration of peace on the European continent.

The stock market enjoyed a great boom and began to rise sharply.

So far, the Easter Bank stock market has faltered in the aftermath of the war, and the financial market seems to be experiencing a financial crunch due to the withdrawal of capital from foreign investors.

However, due to Easterfield’s tremendous firepower, the war ended so quickly that it was described as a bit bland, so it felt like the investment force was breathing.

“Easterbank Central Index rose 4.9 points. It is the highest in the last five years.”

“Hmm, that’s pretty steep.”

At Easterfield’s first economic meeting convened since the declaration of peace in Europe, Lee Hwan realized that the stock price was rising too steeply.

Lee Hwan thought that now was the time to implement austerity measures.

“From now on, we will stop expanding and start tightening the economy again.”

“If we tighten our finances, the current growth rate could be a little lower.”

“Of course it is. But if we just lean on the booming stock market right now and lean on the booming expansion, we never know when we will go into a panic.”

In Lee Hwan’s world, the United States under the world has also faced several financial crises, and even the Great Depression caused people to starve to death on the streets.

Such an eccentric phenomenon can fully occur in the world where Easter Field exists today.

Lee Hwan, who knew it all too well through his future knowledge and experience, intends to formulate economic policy itself more conservatively.

However, it was also somewhat incomprehensible to the big and small priests of Easterfield, who were just taking the third leap.

“But, my lord, we, Easterfield, have the largest financial power in the world. If we put our minds to it, isn’t it possible to create and destroy a market? What is the reason for wanting austerity? … .”

“Like you said, we boast the world’s largest financial power. But what if the largest market stumbled in the face of an economic crisis? What will happen then?”

“Well.”

“Risk, that means you have to be careful about it.”
