Chapter 1342 Change your way of thinking (first update, please subscribe)
What should I do after losing?
It's not that Qiu Zhenzhi is the only one who sees this problem. After all, the imperial military has not only led the world's military revolution in recent years, the military is also full of famous generals.

Among the many military generals, Zhu Sihai, the director of the Imperial Armored Forces, is the least visible.

He was the first batch of armored officers in the empire. In the French Expeditionary Force more than 20 years ago, the armored vehicle unit he led had caused heavy damage to the Prussian army. He also became famous for this battle, but it was only this battle. Seems to have disappeared.

At that time, not many people knew that his disappearance was directly related to the secrecy of the "tank", because the "tank" was a secret weapon, and as the chief officer of the army, he naturally rarely showed his face.Although a few years ago, with the leak of the "water tank", the level of secrecy of the "tank" dropped a lot. Since then, the tank has appeared in front of the world, but Zhu Sihai still rarely appears in public.

As the armored director of the empire, and of course an insider of the "Great Thunderstorm Project", Zhu Sihai now also has his worries.

"Oil, parts, ammunition, the tank unit may be the vanguard of the assault, but its operation is inseparable from gasoline, parts and ammunition. If our troops are fighting in Australia and North America, once the sea transportation line is cut off, the first The ones that are out of combat are the tank units."

Staring at the chessboard, Sun Hu, the general of the Imperial Army, nodded slightly and said.

"In the final analysis, this time the battle is still based on fighting outside the country. The only things that need to be considered in the mainland are Colombia and Venezuela. However, according to the plan, they will be resolved as the fuse of the war before the outbreak of the first stage of the war..."

Any war has a fuse, and if the empire wants to preemptively strike, it also needs a fuse. In order to trigger the war, the staff officers designed several potential fuses.

Colombia and Venezuela are just two of them.

Sun Hu thought for a while, then said.

"So in general, the army's operations should be mainly in Australia and North America. Our industrial development in the north has been quite good in recent years. According to the estimates of the mobilization committee, the industrial potential of the North Sea Governor's District can fully support the troops in the North Sea. Of course, the battle in the western and central parts of the United States does not mean that there are no hidden dangers in the North Sea ethnic area. Its biggest hidden danger is insufficient population, so at least more than 150 million troops need to be dispatched from the mainland to the northern area during the war. You can go by boat..."

As soon as the general's words fell, Zhu Sihai spoke directly.

"Colombia!"

"what?"

"Sir, we must take Colombia now, and then build the "Pan-American Railway", linking the Ecuadorian Railway and the China-U.S. Federal Railway as a whole. In this way, our continental transportation line will also be opened. Reinforce the North The troops do not need to go through a long sea voyage, they can directly take the train from the mainland to the north..."

At that moment, Zhu Sihai's mind was not on the chessboard, he was thinking as he took the initiative to hold the chess pieces.

"In this way, not only can a large amount of merchant shipping tonnage be saved, but also the navy can free up its limited sea power to be used in other areas-such as the escort of the Pacific route. From the mainland of the empire to Australia, this is a Very vulnerable routes. We have to take into account the possibility of the Royal Navy intercepting at sea."

"Pan-American Railroad..."

When mentioning the "Pan-American Railway", Sun Hu's eyes were full of yearning, after all, he was an army officer.

As a continental country, the importance of railways is self-evident.Moreover, the "Pan-American Railway" is not just a railway, it is also an important channel for the empire to connect the two continents, the north and the south.

It is also because of this that in the past few years, the empire has tried every means to promote the construction of the "Pan-American Railway". However, the construction of the "Pan-American Railway" has not been progressing very smoothly.

After all, as an international railway, it needs to coordinate with the countries along the way and needs the consent of the countries along the way, and this is the biggest problem.Especially from Ecuador to Colombia, they have been very resistant to this railway. They think it is a hand for the empire to intervene in its internal affairs.

But, actually?
They simply look at the role of road repairs in promoting their own economy. Of course, the "Pan-American Railway" is also an important tool for the empire to plunder those countries. Various resources from countries along the way can be continuously transported back to the empire through the railway. And the industrial products of the empire can be continuously sold to these countries through the railway.He is like a huge straw, sucking the resources and markets of the countries along the way.

Of course, all this was not deliberately done by the empire. No matter which country built this railway, the final result would be the same.But what are they against?
It is the empire to build.

"Colombia will never allow us to build this railroad right now."

"If they don't agree, then we'll find another way."

Zhu Sihai said directly.

"The only thing they reject is the empire, so what if this railway was not built by the empire? Just like the railway built by the Mexican Railway Company in the Central American Federation, that railway was not built by the empire. If we can't come forward, Then we'll change the puppet."

The reason why he made this suggestion was because Zhu Sihai had visited Mexico as a private person a few years ago and had taken the train from Mexico to the Central American Federation. He naturally knew how the railway was built. "Railway" dilemma, he naturally had other ideas.

"Change a puppet?"

Sun Hu immediately became interested.

"What kind of replacement?"

"It's very simple. Aren't they opposed to the empire building this railway? Then we will switch to other countries to build that railway. What do we need? It's just a railway. It doesn't matter whether it is built by the Imperial Railway Company or not." , the important thing is - we need to connect this railway with our railway, at least, after the outbreak of the war, we can quickly repair the connection line, and then use the railway line to transport troops north to Mexico, to America's Midwest."

Zhu Sihai thought for a while, then said:

"They reject the empire, so will they reject Britain? Will they reject the United States? Let's think of a way to make the British like the Americans, and the Americans can build the railway. Anyway, as long as our army gets there in the end, the railway will not matter. Whoever built it is for us in the final analysis, even if they destroy it we can repair it in a short time, but if there is no railroad there, it will be difficult for us to build the "Pan American Railway" for at least a few years "."

Sun Hu thought for a moment, then asked.

"Then who should we use to come forward? We need to find a suitable person to come forward to do this."

The right person?
After thinking for a while, Zhu Sihai said.

"The investigation department, the investigation department should have suitable candidates, we can coordinate with them."
