Chapter 1147: Hair Standing on End
"Speaking of which," Su Zhengyang gently shook the wine glass, the dark red liquid shimmering under the light, "the situation on the European battlefield recently is very interesting."
Everyone’s heart is raised.
"The armored forces of the Bird Empire have advanced to the Polish plains," Su Zhengyang said in a tone as if he was telling an interesting story, "The lightning tactics they adopted are indeed very ingenious. Ms. Dubois, I'm afraid your French Maginot Line will not last much longer."
Dubois's hands trembled slightly. Su Zhengyang was right, France's situation was indeed precarious.
"As for England," Su Zhengyang looked at Chesterfield, "your situation is more interesting. The submarine blockade of the Byrd Empire has extended to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and a large number of merchant ships are sunk every day. I remember the data last week was that twelve transport ships were lost in the Bristol Channel alone?"
Chesterfield's face turned pale. These data should have been top secret, but Su Zhengyang described them in such detail.
"The most interesting thing is Tsarist Russia," Su Zhengyang chuckled, "They deployed three million troops on the Eastern Front, but they couldn't even defend the Kiev Plain. I heard that Moscow has begun to evacuate important institutions?"
The screams in the conference room seemed to still echo, and everyone shuddered.
"And America," Su Zhengyang turned his eyes to Wilson, "remained neutral on the surface, but actually secretly supported the Allies. A large amount of arms were shipped to Europe through the Atlantic every month, and the profits were considerable."
Wilson pretended to be calm, but the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed his inner feelings.
"What's interesting is," Su Zhengyang continued, "you all seem to have forgotten an important detail. When your main forces were tied up in Europe, the Far East became an unattended backyard."
He paused, his eyes sweeping over everyone present: "Just like today."
This sentence made everyone shudder. They finally understood why Su Zhengyang chose to take back Hong Kong City and Macau City at this time.
"And this is just the beginning," Su Zhengyang's voice was still calm, but it was chilling, "As the war in Europe continues, the situation in the Far East will inevitably change even more."
He took a sip of red wine elegantly: "For example, France's colonies in Indochina, America's military bases in the Pacific, and Tsarist Russia's territories in the Far East..."
Every time a place was mentioned, the face of one of the envoys turned paler.
"This is how the world is," Su Zhengyang put down his glass, "When you are too busy to take care of it, someone will come to clean up these... ownerless things. Just like you treated us back then."
The last sentence made everyone feel a chill. They finally understood that this was not an ordinary diplomatic dinner, but a naked strategic threat.
What was even more terrifying was that they knew that every word Su Zhengyang said was true. In this war that swept the world, the Far East had indeed become their most vulnerable place.
"By the way," Su Zhengyang suddenly changed the subject, his tone a little amused, "Recently, the European battlefields should all be using drugs from Jinlong Pharmaceutical, right?"
These words shocked the envoys present at the same time.
"I remember the data from last month," Su Zhengyang said slowly, "Jinlong Pharmaceuticals supplied 34 million penicillins, 34 million sulfonamides, and a large amount of hemostatic powder, gauze and other medical supplies to the European battlefield."
Dubois gasped. She was very familiar with these data, because most of the medical supplies of the French army were purchased from Jinlong Pharmaceutical.
"You don't think," Su Zhengyang smiled meaningfully, "that Jinlong Pharmaceutical is really a Swiss company, do you?"
Wilson's hand trembled violently, and the wine glass almost fell over. He suddenly remembered the telegram sent from Washington a few days ago, asking to investigate the background of Jinlong Pharmaceutical.
"It's actually very simple," Su Zhengyang gently shook his glass, "When you are all fighting in Europe, someone has to fill the gap in medical supplies. And Jinlong Pharmaceutical is just a small layout of China in Europe."
Chesterfield's face turned pale. He finally understood why Jinlong Pharmaceuticals was able to occupy one-third of the European pharmaceutical market in just two years.
"Now," Su Zhengyang said with a hint of sarcasm, "the wounded on the battlefields of Europe are all using Chinese medicines. Interesting, isn't it?"
Silva felt dizzy. What did this mean? It meant that China was not only rising militarily, but its economic penetration had already penetrated deep into the heart of Europe.
"So," Su Zhengyang sipped the red wine leisurely, "the world is undergoing earth-shaking changes. While you are still fighting for a city or a piece of land, China is already playing a bigger game."
The envoys looked at each other, and saw deep shock and fear in each other's eyes. They realized that the seemingly crazy president in front of them had actually laid a dragnet all over the world.
The recovery of Hong Kong City and Macau City is just a small beginning in this big game. And these so-called "great powers" have unknowingly fallen deeply into the economic network woven by China.
"Come on," Su Zhengyang raised his glass, "let's toast to Jinlong Pharmaceutical's success in Europe."
Several envoys mechanically raised their glasses, but their hands were shaking slightly. Because they knew that this was not a celebration of business success, but a display of China's strength and ambition.
&34；至于法兰西，&34；苏正阳的目光转向杜波依斯，&34；你们在沪城的情报网很活跃啊。特别是那个叫让·杜普雷的&39；商人&39；，最近在打听华国的军火工厂？&34；
Dubois felt the blood in her body freeze. Jean Dupre was the most secretive intelligence agent in France, and even she had to use three layers of code to contact him.
"And Yingli," Su Zhengyang chuckled, "Mr. Chesterfield, your 'tea company' in Hong Kong is backed by MI34, right? Unfortunately, starting today, they have to change their business."
Chesterfield's hands were shaking under the table. The intelligence base had been operating for thirty years, but now it was exposed by Su Zhengyang in a casual way.
"Although Portugal is small, it is also very active," Su Zhengyang looked at Silva, "You guys in the casino in Macau, you are not just gambling in secret, right? The arms that flowed to Southeast Asia have very interesting origins."
Silva felt dizzy. These secret transactions should have been covered up, but in front of Su Zhengyang, they seemed to be stripped naked.
"Are you curious?" Su Zhengyang poured himself a glass of wine leisurely. "How do I know this?"
No one dared to speak. They all felt a chill on their backs, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching their every move in the dark.
"There are no real secrets in this world," Su Zhengyang gently shook his glass, "Just like what you did in China back then, everything will be recorded and discovered. It's just that now, the roles are reversed."
The envoys looked pale. They finally understood that China was no longer the weak country that was at the mercy of others. In places they could not see, an invisible intelligence network had covered the entire Far East and even extended to Europe and the United States.
And the man in front of them was like an omniscient and omnipotent devil, jokingly uncovering the fig leaf of the intelligence system that they were so proud of.
