It wouldn't be too fast to build a ship, but the announcement of this plan immediately caused a huge reaction in the market. Building these warships requires a lot of steel, a lot of factories, a lot of workers, and a lot of engineers... or to apply a statement from later generations, that is:

"The Soviet Union, the Party Central Committee, the National Planning Commission, the Military Industry Commission and the nine Ministry of Defense Industry, 600 related majors, and 8,000 supporting manufacturers. In short, a great country needs to complete it."

Now in France, the Republic has replaced the "Soviet Republic", the government has replaced the "Central of the Party", and the military-industrial complex has replaced the "Military Industry Commission and nine Ministry of Defense Industry". Although France's military industry has not yet developed to the point of having "600 related majors and 8,000 supporting manufacturers", the warships of this era are simpler, and France's existing industrial capabilities are sufficient. As for "a great country", isn't Napoleon's current slogan "Let France continue to be great"?

With the launch of this plan, the originally stagnant industrial machines began to re-operate. Steel plants and various machinery factories began to recruit workers again, and various supporting factories began to operate. So the workers in the factory also began to get wages, and the market began to recover significantly.

"Investing in the military, but in time, it can stimulate the economy. But in the long run, if we had not dug gold mines, investing in the military in this way basically means a certain war. Because without war, we cannot reap the benefits of war. This approach will only lead to increasing debts and eventually increasing economic pressure. It can be said that this is a way to quench thirst by drinking poisonous wine." Seeing that Napoleon was very satisfied with the economy that seemed to be beginning to recover, Joseph couldn't help but remind him.

"I know this naturally," said Napoleon.

The huge shipbuilding plan also greatly relieved other countries on the European continent. The reason is naturally very simple. If the French were committed to building a large fleet, their goal would definitely not be themselves. As for what the French did to expand the army, it was of course to land in Britain.

However, the usage of these expanded engineers once again refreshed the perception of other countries - it turned out that there was such a way of playing. The French then announced a second plan to expand domestic demand, which is the "Plan for the Management of the Five Major Rivers of France". According to this plan, France will connect the five major water systems in France through canals in the next few years, making inland shipping in France more convenient.

In addition, France will carry out a large-scale clearance of the river channel so that larger sea ships can also directly enter the French inland. Of course, this is a very large project, and the newly formed engineering troops were directly sent to such a use.

The third part of expanding domestic demand is to crack down on the dumping of foreign goods in France.

The target target is also Britain. Napoleon accused the United Kingdom of not complying with the accepted principles of free trade when trading with France and even the European mainland, and demanded that the United Kingdom immediately stop discriminatory tariffs on French steel products, otherwise France would take reciprocal sanctions.

In fact, France has been in a super status in trade with Britain over the years. Even if the British adopted some tariffs and other restrictions on French industrial products, the same is true. (Of course, the French did not have no price to do anything. Britain had a trade deficit with France, but Britain had a trade surplus to the entire Europe.) Since the French were out of a surplus position, they naturally did not care much about the British behavior in the past, but now it is different from the past. In Napoleon's plan, the Jews who took the blame for the outbreak of the economic crisis, while the British must be the British.

Because to solve the economic crisis, the most important thing is to reduce production capacity. However, it is not a good thing to reduce your own production capacity. It is best to obtain other people's production capacity. In the whole of Europe, in addition to France, the production capacity of Britain is also worth going. What's more, the British controlled so many colonies, which are the best industrial product dumping markets. Who in Europe doesn't look red?

So as soon as Napoleon's State of the Union address and budget was released, the countries on the European continent started to make trouble. The Netherlands first followed up, claiming that Britain's dumping behavior violated the principle of free trade. Therefore, in retaliation, the Netherlands prepared to double to triple the tariffs on more than 50 goods imported from the United Kingdom.

Immediately afterwards, the Northern Italian Republic and even Austria joined in. They also said that because the British did not abide by the rules and refused to open colonial markets to European countries, they would also raise tariffs on British goods in a targeted manner.

Then the French took the stage in person. French Foreign Minister Talleyran summoned the British ambassador to France and asked the United Kingdom to immediately adopt the same "open door policy" as Spain, allowing other European countries to carry out any legal business activities equally in British colonies.

Of course this is impossible, because if such a request is agreed, then whose colony is? This is something that the British could not agree to, at least, when the French army's leather boots were not stepped on the ground of Buckingham Palace, they would never agree.

So the British did not hesitate to reject the French's absurd demands and said that if France imposes trade sanctions on Britain, the UK will also impose trade sanctions on France.

After receiving such an answer, the French immediately announced that they would impose punitive tariffs on more than 30 goods exported by Britain. The British first advised the French not to do things that harm others and do not benefit themselves, and then solemnly warned the French not to underestimate the British's determination to defend their own interests. Then, after a month, seeing that the whole of Europe was almost followed by the French, they began to close the market on the UK. The British officially announced that they would impose punitive tariffs on more than 30 products exported by Britain. So a trade war officially broke out.

In Ireland, the armistice between the Irish and the British has been maintained for several years. In these years, no one has been idle. The British constantly built strongholds in their own controlled areas, trying to consolidate their controlled areas and prepare for future sweeps.

The Irish were naturally not idle either. In the past few years, Ireland has strengthened the regularization of the Independent Army. Although it was limited to agreements with the British, the Independent Army still had only two divisions, each division had only three regiments, and each regiment had only three regiments, and each regiment had only three regiments, and the underside of the battalion... The companies below the battalion were uncertain, and the most were already from platoons to z, and there were also many platoons below, and there were also many platoons below, and the number of people below the platoons below was not right. In short, it made a regiment of the Irish Independent Army, which was comparable to Li Yunlong's regiment in terms of scale, while the Irish Independent Army had developed from a division of the Anti-Japanese United Army to a group of platoons in later generations. The two divisions combined had 100,000 people.

In addition to the increase in the number of people, with the support of French allies, the training and equipment level of the Irish Independence Army also made obvious progress. The French have never given up arming the Irish. They provided weapons to the Irish people in various ways and under the guise of various civil facilities. Now, in addition to heavy artillery, the Irish Independence Army is even a little more advanced than the UK in other aspects of weapons and equipment.

In addition, the mutual infiltration between the two sides has not stopped. The British have been trying hard to get spies into the Irish team, and the Irish are constantly instigating the people in the UK. But in general, the Irish naturally gained the upper hand in this matter. Because it is not easy for the British to get involved in the Irish; but there are some Irish people on both sides of the Irish people, who are on two boats.

In addition, although the two sides have maintained a peaceful situation as a whole, small-scale conflicts have almost never stopped in recent years. Most of these conflicts occurred between the "anti-traitor group" under the Irish Independence Army and the special operations team of the British Military Intelligence Agency. The "anti-traitor group" of the Irish people has been secretly operating in cities including Dublin, assassinating those "love-traitor" who refuse to cooperate with the United Irish Federation, in order to force more Irish people who serve the British to join the ranks of "two boats".

To be honest, except for a very small number of people who are "involved rape", most of them have only two reasons - they love money and are afraid of death. Such people are not very loyal to the UK. Unless the British investigate it strictly, they are not particularly repulsive of "standing on two boats". Now, if they do not "make some convenience there" or "do things too actively", they may be killed by a bullet flying from somewhere or even a grenade. Therefore, the Irish people in the British controlled areas generally have a feeling of passive slacking off work. To capture the "anti-trait team" of the Irish Federation, they can basically rely on the serious British.

In order to curb the "anti-traitor group" operations, the British Military Intelligence Agency specially formed a special operation team. They often set up a bait first (let a "spy-loving" do something special to attract the "anti-traitor group" operations), and then carry out targeted ambush.

At the beginning, the Special Operations Team of the Military Intelligence Bureau used this method to cheat the "Anti-Traitor Group" and killed many soldiers of the "Anti-Traitor Group". But soon after, the Anti-Traitor Group also took countermeasures and began to launch attacks directly against the Special Operations Team of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Moreover, their attack methods and techniques are constantly being renewed. They even once brought grenade launchers made in France into the city and then shelled the military intelligence agency's special operations team's base, causing considerable casualties to the military intelligence agency's rangers.

Moreover, after that, the British discovered that the Irish anti-traitor group had more and more various tricks. In addition to violent grenade launchers and rifles with scopes, they also used small crossbows that fired poison needles. This crossbow is only the size of a palm, and looks like a toy for children. However, it is very lethal to use. It can shoot a poison needle silently twenty meters away, and has a very good hit accuracy at a distance of about ten meters. Because this poison needle uses a special nerve poison from a certain creature in the tropical rainforest. This poison is a highly effective anesthetic and can block nerve conduction, so many people don’t even feel at all when they are shot.

Once hit by this poisonous needle, the toxin will invade the human body. After a few minutes, it will cause the poisoned person's muscles, including the diaphragm and myocardium. Once the diaphragm and myocardium are loose, the person will immediately lose his own breathing and heartbeat. Then within a few minutes, he will die due to brain hypoxia.

Because the effect of this toxin is so good, it is so difficult to discover that the Irish sometimes even smear this thing on the tip of the umbrella to assassinate. In short, it was in this secret battle that the British discovered that they were technically crushed by the Irish...

Now Britain and France have almost officially turned against each other. To be honest, the Irish have been waiting for this day for a long time. The entire Union of Unified Irish People knows that the time for independence is right in front of us.

In July 1805, the Irish people packed the potatoes for this year and then claimed that the British army violated the Armistice Agreement and attacked a village near the military demarcation line between the two sides, causing huge losses to the Irish people. The British had taken the initiative to destroy the Armistice between the two sides, so from this moment on, the Armistice Agreement no longer exists.

Of course, in order to show the image of the Irish love of peace, the United Irish Federation and the Irish Independence Army gave the British a chance to be peaceful. They issued an ultimatum to the British, demanding that the British hand over the British criminals who attacked Irish villages to the Irish within twelve hours, and directly pointed out the names of these British people. They also asked the British to withdraw all their troops from Ireland within forty-eight hours.

Such conditions are certainly not peaceful conditions, they are the conditions for the surrender of the British, and even the only purpose of proposing such conditions is to make the British reject it.
