Sometimes the domination of the world does not rely solely on force and an illusory universal value. The fundamental reason for China to stabilize its position as the world's ruler in the future is to be able to truly guide the world, that is, to guide human civilization to move forward. This process is With the Chinese nation as the main body and the Chinese people playing the greatest role.
American values ??tend to be individualistic, and private interests are greater than public interests. At the same time, American culture tends to be hollow and does not have enough objective power to integrate into the entire world and form a complete and detailed governance system. However, China does not Likewise, the long history, culture and huge population, as long as they are guided correctly, will definitely bring about unprecedented innovation.
¡°To lead the world, we must first make the world align with ourselves. Qi Yiming does not want to impose a standard on others like the United States, and find fault with others if they are different from him. What China needs to do is to constantly improve and strengthen itself, and when China proves something is true, other countries will naturally know what to do.
Now China can mainly influence its allies in the SCO, but the power of the SCO is also growing day by day. The last year of the 20th century has arrived, and the millennium bug that people worried about in the new millennium has not appeared. In fact, because the electronic technology in this plane is equivalent to the level of more than ten years later, people's worries about the millennium bug are not particularly serious.
On January 1, 2000, the new RMB began to officially circulate in the SCO countries. After years of preparation and planning, the issuance of the new RMB went relatively smoothly. In China, the old RMB will continue to circulate as usual before July 1, and residents can go to various bank branches to exchange the old RMB in their hands for the new RMB. Other SCO non-RMB-using countries will convert their old currencies into new RMB according to the newly determined exchange rate.
The emergence of the new renminbi also means that the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle for China to integrate a wide range of SCO economies has been put together. Previously, the Chita Agreement allowed people to circulate freely within the SCO countries. The SCO Free Trade Agreement completely eliminated tariffs on internal trade within the SCO countries. Now even the currency has been unified. In essence, the SCO is like an independent country's economy. , rather than a national organization with economic attributes.
At the same time, the SCO also gained two new member states, Romania and Bulgaria. Romania's joining the SCO is considered by the outside world to be a matter of time, which is not surprising. However, Bulgaria's sudden embrace of the SCO triggered a small earthquake within NATO and created a more critical situation for European countries.
With the addition of Yugoslavia, which is already a member of the SCO, the SCO already has three fulcrums in Europe. Although further development may encounter greater difficulties, the sense of deja vu of the confrontation between NATO and the Warsaw Pact in Europe still makes Europeans very worried.
It was at this time that the Balkans, which had just calmed down for a while, had problems again. The culprit of the conflict is the Albanian people. Due to the retreat of NATO, the Yugoslav People's Army wiped out the Kosovo Liberation Army in one go and regained control of the entire territory of Kosovo. In addition to the large number of Albanian armed forces who were killed and captured by the Yugoslav People's Army, a considerable number of them fled across the border to Albania.
In the name of hosting refugees, the Albanian government accepted some Albanian armed forces and even provided them with supplies. However, the Albanian government does not have adequate control over these Albanian armed forces, and some Albanian armed forces often act privately. It would be fine if they made a little trouble in Albania, but these hateful Albanian armed forces are eager to fight back to Kosovo and regain the land they believe belongs to the Albanians.
Gradually, when the Albanian armed forces settled down, they began to cross the border and attack some villages and towns in Kosovo and Macedonia. In one attack, more than 20 Albanian armed militants attacked a Serb convoy that had been assisting in the construction of Kosovo, killing More than a dozen Serb workers and engineers were killed, which directly shocked the Yugoslav government. Afterwards, this group of Albanian armed forces retreated to Albania before the arrival of the People's Army. The Yugoslav federal troops could only watch them go away from the border, but they were helpless.
Yugoslav Prime Minister Novakovic was furious and called directly to Albania, ordering Albania to hand over the perpetrators and immediately extradite those Albanian militants to Yugoslavia and let them face trial. However, the Albanian government is also quite forceful, showing that it wants to make the decision for the Albanians. At the same time, it states that the Albanian armed forces are political prisoners and may suffer discrimination and abuse when they return to Yugoslavia. Albania refuses to transfer these Albanian armed forces were transferred to Yugoslavia.
When Yugoslavia heard what Albania said, it became even more angry. The Yugoslav Defense Minister later stated that if Albanian armed forces enter Yugoslavia from Albania again, the Yugoslav People's Army will not hesitate to fight back and will not hesitate to cross the border to attack Albanian armed forces when necessary.??
Albania was equally furious upon hearing this, claiming that if the Yugoslav army dared to step into Albanian territory, the heroic Albanian soldiers would make it impossible for the invaders to come back.
Originally, such quarrels were not that rare. People who can quarrel may not be able to fight. According to the normal routine, Albania has also said harsh words, so it should immediately control the Albanian militants in the country, strictly restrict their activities, or directly disarm them. Even if this is not possible, they should be monitored as closely as possible to prevent these funny guys from triggering another conflict between Yugoslavia and Albania. However, I don¡¯t know what the Albanian government is thinking. It has not done anything that should be done. This will inevitably lead to the Albanian armed forces, who feel that they have become the protagonist again, to adopt more drastic measures.
Four days after the war of words between Yugoslavia and Albania, just when people thought that there would be no more trouble, a group of Albanian militants once again crossed the South-Albanian border and wanted to enter Kosovo to attack Yugoslavia. outpost, but this group of stupid Albanian armed forces encountered a team of the Yugoslav People's Army that had just arrived here two days ago to strengthen the defense shortly after crossing the border. Although this unit was not as large as the Albanian armed forces, But the weapons and combat experience are much stronger than them.
After a fierce exchange of fire, the Albanian armed forces were defeated by the Yugoslav army and could only retreat towards Albania. At this time, the Yugoslav army, which received a report from the frontline defense patrol troops, sent reinforcements, including several armored vehicles and a company-sized troops. At the decision of the Yugoslav Kosovo Command, this patrol force and reinforcements crossed the Albanian border to pursue the Albanian armed forces who were fighting and retreating. The Albanian militants suffered heavy losses, but when they crossed three kilometers across the border, the Albanian army also arrived after hearing the news. There was no communication between the two sides, and they started fighting. The Albanian army reacted hastily and was repelled by the Yugoslav People's Army. However, the Albanians were unwilling to shell out the Yugoslav People's Army as they entered their territory. The Southern Army immediately withdrew from Albania without suffering too many losses when the enemy's firepower was superior and its own forces advanced too much. However, this incident also marked the formal exchange of fire between the official armies of Yugoslavia and Albania, and border conflicts broke out. At that time, the Kosovo Command of the Yugoslav Army did not communicate with the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff, and immediately mobilized an artillery battalion equipped with PLZ-45 self-propelled artillery imported from China, and came to the border to target important military targets on the Albanian side. , especially the border posts and checkpoints of the Afghan army, especially the strongholds temporarily occupied by Albanian armed forces, were subjected to fierce shelling.
Albania soon refused to be outdone and launched a round of counter-artillery bombardment. However, the Albanian army's artillery level was still some distance behind that of the Southern Army. The artillery was mainly old-fashioned towed artillery with poor mobility. Even the number of artillery Dominate, but the firepower is not as effective as the Confederate artillery.
After the Albanian artillery counterattack, the Southern Army directly dispatched several Flying Leopard fighter jets, flew into Albanian airspace, and bombed the Albanian artillery positions. At this point, the war between the two sides has escalated again, from a simple border conflict to a border war.
Although the Yugoslav government was a little annoyed by the Kosovo command's arbitrary actions and decisive counterattacks without communicating with the central government, Novakovic had previously mentioned that if Albanian armed forces entered the country again, the military would carry out cross-border strikes. In terms of handling, it was really There's nothing wrong with it. However, Novakovic also knew that Yugoslavia did not need to engage in a war with Albania, so the Yugoslav Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately notified Albania, hoping that the two sides would sit down, stop fighting and disputes, and use negotiation and communication to solve the problem. But before the Albanian government could react, the Albanian armed forces, who felt they had been bullied, were furious. They crossed the border one after another and carried out retaliatory attacks in Kosovo, Macedonia and other places. Yugoslavia's borders faced the risk of being fully invaded. Due to the situation, Novakovic could only stop the ceasefire negotiations and ordered the Southern Army to counterattack decisively.
