The middle-aged man's breathing became noticeably heavier. It seemed that this great gift had moved his heart. Why was the cause of the independence of the Irish nation so difficult? It was because England was too strong and Ireland was too weak.
Before Ke Lunweier, the Irish were known for their textile industry, but after the war, the only light industry was abolished by the British.
The Irish don't even have a modern factory. Even the workshops are medieval handmade, so it's no problem to build handmade horseshoes. You want them to make sophisticated guns? Maybe even the oldest musket wouldn't be able to make it.
Firstly, they did not have Steel plant s, and qualified steel could not be bought at all. Secondly, they did not have machinery.
As for the other parts, you could make them by hand, but the barrel and the rifling inside were not something that could be done by human hands. If this node was stuck, then the Irish would completely block the way to make their own weapons.
In addition, the Royal Navy's blockade on the Ireland and the pressure from British diplomacy prevented the Irish and foreign powers from purchasing weapons.
Irishmen understood that power came out of guns. They had suffered too much and lost too much blood under the enemy's barrage of bayonet s, it wasn't like they had never done that before.
Even the British militia, the ordinary British residents with guns, could easily suppress the Irish riots.
The Young Irish Party, after all, had been nothing more than a sneak attack on Britain, putting pressure on it in the form of a riot, that was all.
They no longer easily trusted anyone. They had to carefully wait for the opportunity of history, and for generations to come, they would definitely not let their outstanding talent die in vain unless it was a crucial moment.
The real history was also like this. After the rebellion in the Great Famine was suppressed, all the way until World War I, these Irish finally found an opportunity to rebel.
At that time, they had also formed an alliance with the Kaiser Wilhelm, the youngest grandson of the Queen Victoria, with the help of Emperor William to provide funds and weapons to support the independence of the Irish.
Unfortunately, the British navy was too powerful. No matter how much they tried to disguise themselves, all the German arms ships could not get to them. They were captured and sunk by the British on the high seas.
Even so, the Irish, who had received financial support, still went on a series of uprisings. However, they had also reaped the benefits of being brutally suppressed time after time.
It wasn't until after the Second World War that Britain completely withdrew from its position as boss, that humanity entered the Cold War era of the United States and the Soviet Union, that the new media flourished, that the power of human rights and the rise of the Third World gave the Irish a chance.
After all, it was the National Independence Movement after World War II that helped the Irish so much that the Republic of Ireland came into being.
Where is the root of the disease? The root of the illness lay in the ship's equipment. The other party could not help but doubt such a gift.
The well-dressed person licked his lips and asked, ”You …” Why are you helping us? ”
King Yi sneered as he looked at the hook on his prey: ”I have already revealed my identity, now it's your turn. Tell me your name and identity!”
