s: I had something to do yesterday, so I was a little late.
Please vote at the beginning of the month The friction incident that occurred in the Mozambique Strait on March 6, 1940 ended with the U.S. visiting fleet returning home in despair.
Of course, under China's mediation, in order to allow the United States to step down, they were allowed to send a light cruiser and two destroyers to visit Madagascar.
However, these three warships were surrounded by a large number of People's Revolutionary Alliance warships throughout the whole process.
As for the mood of the people on board, it is unknown.
It must not be too good.
This "Moshan Strait Confrontation" attracted worldwide attention, especially the "air dance party" that lasted for more than six hours.
The most exciting part of it was naturally the half hour after China Hainan Airlines debuted. .
In the final minutes of the air confrontation, China's HNA's new jet attracted the attention of the world.
Captain Huang Jiahui, who performed "Aerial Scalpel", undoubtedly became the protagonist of the day.
However, regarding this incident, the two parties involved, China and the United States, both claimed with the same caliber: This was just a regrettable mid-air collision.
It was just an accident, please don't think too much about it.
The relationship between China and the United States remains good.
Of course, this approach is just that both parties have no intention of falling out, at least not for the time being.
Naturally, the big issue will be reduced to a trivial matter.
However, other unrelated countries do not have these considerations.
They naturally say whatever they want, although they still have some provocation.
Especially the two major groups of the Entente and the Allies in K, they are eager to start fighting between China and the United States.
They have not forgotten that China and the United States picked the biggest fruit in the last war.
Only when these two fight, will their hearts be balanced.
According to the German media, Captain Huang Jiahui became angry after being forced to do so many times.
Then, relying on his superb control skills and great confidence in the performance of the Seahawk fighter jet, he used his vertical tail to kill the Carter that was confronting him.
The wing of Lina's seaplane was cut off, causing the other plane to crash.
This reflects the fearless spirit, good awareness and superb flying skills of Chinese pilots, as well as their superb aviation equipment.
British media claimed: This incident fully demonstrated the double failure of HNA in equipment and training.
The appearance of Chinese jets once again confirmed that this ancient country still firmly holds the crown in the world's aviation field.
The Soviet Union reported the matter in a very calm tone and relatively objectively.
Because they are currently wallowing in the Swedish quagmire and have no time to interfere with this matter.
In subsequent publicity, China said this: "This accident was caused by the illegal operation of the US military aircraft.
If our pilots had not responded quickly, both aircraft might have perished together.
We hope that the United States will strengthen the training and qualifications of pilots."
Censorship to prevent similar incidents from happening again."
Anyway, it can be summed up in one sentence: Everything is caused by the United States, and we are pure and innocent.
On the surface, the "Moshan Strait Confrontation" is an outbreak of conflicts between the United States and Japan, but in essence, it is a mutual test between the two major groups, the People's Revolutionary League and the West, to test each other's bottom line.
The result was that the United States was very disappointed, because China's attitude was very obvious.
If they conflict with Japan again in the future, China will definitely support them to the end.
The United States understands China's attitude, and China also understands the United States' attitude, that is, they will never let go of South Africa.
Now that everyone understands each other's bottom line, this incident has also become a turning point in Sino-US relations.
The relationship between the world's largest and second largest industrial countries has since reached a low point.
The relationship between countries is like this.
There are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies.
Only interests are eternal.
Whether you become a friend or an enemy, it's all about profit.
When Wen Desi was still playing in Xingke Group, he had a very good relationship with the United States.
When the Socialist Party of Science and Technology rebelled but before the founding of the country, the two sides had already established formal diplomatic relations.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the United States was the first country to recognize New China and the first country to upgrade diplomatic relations to the ambassadorial level.
In the following years, the two sides have become quasi-allies, and their relationship is as good as a pair of pants.
In the following time, the two countries worked closely together to deal with old Europe, and they had a friendship of "sharing the dirty laundry together".
This is of course not because the United States likes China very much, or China likes the United States very much.
These are just interests.
The earth is so big and has long been divided up by the established powers.
As emerging powers, China and the United States can only get more benefits from the mouths of the established powers.
Under such circumstances, the two families will naturally unite.
Otherwise, one alone has no confidence that it can defeat the established powers.
This is just like forming a team when downloading a dungeon.
Even people you didn't know before can still form a team.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, China's relationship with the United States became closer due to China's large demand for raw materials and markets.
In the early years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, China had to import large amounts of oil, natural gas, rare earths and other minerals from the United States, as well as massive amounts of agricultural products such as flour, dairy products, and meat.
At the same time, it sells various products such as automobiles, household appliances, ballpoint pens, lighters, and sulfonamides to the United States.
Later, after the establishment of this own modern agricultural system, although the import volume of American agricultural products was declining, the demand for various mineral resources was increasing.
In other words, the two decades from the founding of New China to the 1929 economic crisis were the honeymoon period for China and the United States.
Although there were some disputes during the period, for example, during the South American War, China clearly had other plans.
When old Europe joined forces to suppress the United States, China did not support the United States, which made the United States very unhappy.
But generally speaking, the relationship between the two countries during this period was mostly positive.
At that time, the two countries were as good as wearing a pair of pants.
It was not until the economic crisis began in 1929 that China set up trade barriers and played on its own behind closed doors without giving the United States, its gay friend, any face.
This caused the relationship between the two countries to begin to decline.
However, setting up trade barriers was also a consistent approach of all the major powers at that time, so the two countries still maintained basic relations.
In addition, both countries have become the bosses of an international organization, so the relationship cannot remain the same as before.
Later, the United States also became aware of China's small moves in South America, and became increasingly dissatisfied.
Forget it if it's just immigration.
America is a country of immigrants.
This is normal.
However, China has increased its economic penetration and product dumping in South America, which has seriously affected the interests of the United States.
The relations between China and South American countries have always been very good.
China not only imports large quantities of metal ores, oil and agricultural products from these countries, but also exports large quantities of weapons and various industrial products to the three countries.
These exports can only be described as dumping.
During the economic crisis, "Cactus President" Ghana proposed a "good neighbor policy" for Latin American countries in order to implement his New Deal, declaring "equality" and "non-interference in internal affairs."
At the 1932 Pan-American Conference, U.S.
Secretary of State Hull signed a tariff reduction agreement with Latin American countries, significantly reducing tariffs, with average tariffs only ranging from 10 to 20 percent.
But happiness comes from comparison.
The tariffs in China are lower.
Commodities such as mineral products, petroleum, and timber imported from China are all duty-free.
The tariff for exported industrial products is only 5%, and even products from labor-intensive enterprises such as clothes, as well as agricultural products, are not only exempt from tariffs, but also provide additional subsidies.
Naturally, Chinese goods also occupy a considerable market.
In particular, Paraguay and Chile have officially joined the People's Revolutionary League, allowing China's power to officially penetrate into South America.
Although several other countries have not joined the People's Revolutionary Alliance, their economic exchanges with China have become increasingly closer.
In 1931, China took the lead in mediating, allowing Brazil and Argentina to reach reconciliation, delineate their borders, and normalize relations.
Colombia also became a member of the SCO in 1938, followed by Argentina and Brazil in 1939.
China not only provides these South American countries with relatively advanced weapons and equipment, but also helps South American governments establish arsenals to produce firearms, artillery, and even aircraft and tanks, and sends military advisers to help train troops.

At the same time, China also provides scholarships to students from various countries and recruits a large number of international students from South American countries to study in China every year.
The United States has become increasingly wary of China's series of actions.
Nima, South America is our backyard.
What do you mean by China?
If it were in the history of the original time and space, the United States would have had enough energy to interfere in South American affairs, and maybe it could squeeze out China's power.
But the situation on this plane is somewhat different.
Because they have achieved so many benefits in Africa, and during the years of economic crisis, they made large-scale public investment and infrastructure construction in American West Africa, it is no longer possible to let go.
In addition, in recent years, Japan, which has moved to Africa, has been having trouble with the South African issue.
Japan is not a small country that can be solved in a minute.
Now that it has taken over African territory and has the support of China, Japan has become stronger, making the United States unable to do so.
Don’t invest most of your energy in Africa.
Therefore, it is impossible for South America to exert too much energy.
Starting from the second half of 1939, Sino-US relations began to cool down sharply.
After the "Air Scalpel" incident, the relationship between the two countries became even colder, and many cooperations between the governments were postponed or suspended.
This kind of indifference is not a deterioration, but it means that when the situation is unclear, we act cautiously, but it has shown a tendency to worsen.
There are only interests between countries.
China threatens the interests of the United States, so it is prepared for this.
The United States is willing to maintain relations with China just to avoid greater pressure.
Of course, the relationship between China and the United States is very close, and the entanglements between the two countries are also deep.
Although the relationship between the governments has become cold, the economic exchanges have not been affected.
Now the relationship between the two countries is obviously "politically cold and economic hot".
"Bullshit, that's right, it's just bullshit.
Just start wrangling with them slowly," Wen Desi said with a smile: "Anyway, it's impossible to really start a fight, at least not in a short time, so just use words."
"Yes, Mr.
Wen."
Vice Foreign Minister Gu Weijun said with a smile: "Now the United States is willing to compensate for the losses according to our requirements, but the prerequisite is to sell them the latest jet aircraft, as well as a complete set of drawings and production licenses."
"They have a good plan.
The jets can be sold, but they certainly can't be the latest ones.
And they have to buy one jet and three propeller planes along with the old propeller planes."
Wen Desi smiled: "I estimate that this arms deal is basically the last deal between us and the United States in the near future, at least the last deal in the past few years."
"Yes, I understand."
Gu Weijun nodded.
As a high-level diplomat, he certainly understood what Mr.
Wen meant.
Judging from the current trend, the relationship between China and the United States will only become more and more tense, and military cooperation will naturally be impossible to continue.
Although the Pacific Ocean is large, it cannot accommodate two superpowers.
China and the United States have developed to this point and have already taken advantage of their own due interests.
If you want more benefits, you must reach out to the other party's sphere of influence.
There is no way, the cake on the earth is so big, either you rob me, or I rob you.
In the history of the original time and space, the United States was stronger and surpassed China in overall national power, so they rushed to China's doorstep and developed the little fart countries that should be China's sphere of influence into the little brothers of the United States.
What else did they do?
The “island chain” limits China’s expansion.
However, the situation on this plane is very different.
Under the leadership of Mr.
Wen, a bastard, China has risen at a dreamlike speed.

Its national power has completely surpassed that of the United States ten years ago.
Naturally, things have gone the other way around.
China has grabbed Went to America's doorstep.
It has extended its tentacles to South America, a place that the United States regards as its own backyard.
And it’s not just South America at our doorstep, there’s also the issue of Africa.
Although China has very little territory in Africa, only the palm-sized Yanqiu Djibouti covers an area of 23,200 square kilometers.
It seems that the interests are not great, and Yanqiu and the United States are separated by eight streets, so there is no direct conflict.
However, China has given full strength to support Japan, which makes the United States feel angry.
As it stands now, Japan will not be able to give up its ambitions for South Africa.
If this continues, the two sides will not quarrel with each other and directly engage in a fight.
That's good.
It's possible that it will be like before.
Since the United States is now interested in China's jet technology and wants it very much, let's take the opportunity to make a big deal.
Anyway, the Americans have a lot of money.
Wen Desi raised a finger and said with a smile: "Tell the Americans not to sell anything less.
If you want to buy it, buy at least one division of each type, 160 aircraft.
There are also three times the number of propeller aircraft."
Although China has sold a large number of piston aircraft and turboprop aircraft to both sides in the European War at high prices some time ago, because the Chinese Air Force base is too large, there are still more than 4,000 propeller aircraft that need to be replaced.
Of course, these second-hand aircraft also need to be replaced.
Find the next shipment as soon as possible.
Now that the United States has expressed its intention to buy airplanes, Wen Desi will of course catch the opportunity and try hard to take advantage of it.
If he doesn’t take advantage this time, he will have no chance in the future.
"Mr.
Wen, the Entente and Allied Powers have also requested to purchase our jets.
Do they follow this standard?"
Another deputy minister, Lu Zhengxiang, also asked with a smile.
He is now mainly responsible for European affairs.
Both the Allies and the Central Powers are looking for him to buy airplanes and jets.
Wen Desi smiled harmlessly: "Of course it's the same standard.
When we do business, we must be honest and fair, and a bowl of water will be fair.
Except for ourselves and our allies, everyone will pay this price, and the same goes for armored combat vehicles."
Likewise, if you want to buy a leopard, you have to buy it with a red wolf.
Fortunately, we don’t have many red wolves now, so just buy one and pair it with one.”
As for whether the export of these weapons would cause technology leakage and whether it would embarrass himself, Wen Desi had never considered it.
Because these things that are willing to be sold are definitely not as good as those for personal use.
They are basically one to two generations, or even three or four generations worse than the personal use version.
China's arms sales are now divided into several grades.
For example, jets, Mr.
Wen took out this time, and the export models sold to European and American powers were first-generation aircraft, while the ones given to the Revolutionary Alliance allies were second-generation aircraft, and the ones he used were third-generation aircraft.
Not to mention, these export versions of the aircraft have all had their own radars, fly-by-wire flight control systems, fire control computers and other sensitive equipment removed.
In addition, lower-end similar equipment has been installed, and the engines have also been replaced with lower grades.
The monkey version, even those propeller planes currently in service do this.
As for whether he will get himself into a trap because of this, this is purely overthinking.
If a war breaks out, won't you suffer losses if you don't sell weapons in the first place?
Arms sales are inherently an industry with extremely high profits, and only fools would not do it.

If you're afraid of this and that, then don't do anything.
The most important thing is that arms can not only make high profits, but can also dig holes for others and lead them down the wrong path.
Then it is to attack the opponent's self-research and development capabilities.
In fact, top powers such as the United States, Britain, Germany, France and the Soviet Union are working on the current jet aircraft, and they have achieved good results.
Even if China does not sell it to them, at most one year later, their own The jets will come out.
But selling it to them now will not only make a huge profit, but also disrupt their R&D plans, undermine their self-research and development capabilities, and make all their previous investments in vain.
If it weren't for these benefits, in the later generations of the original time and space, why would countries like Europe, the United States, and Japan immediately open up the same kind of gadget whenever China was about to come up with something new?
But more mature things really thought they were fools, or Is it Lei?
Now that China on this plane has opened up the trap, it will of course have to "repay the other side with the same thing as the other side."
These things that are now exported are all products of this kind of thinking.
It performs a little better than their near-successful stuff, but definitely not too much, but it's more mature.
The same is true for aircraft, tanks and other weapons.
At present, the Chinese Army's own tanks are typical third-generation main battle tanks, and those sold to younger brothers are second-generation tanks.
European and American powers can only buy first-generation tanks.
This is an artificial difference, otherwise how can we reflect closeness and distance:
