Chapter 133 Numbers Decide Everything

The country in Abya is singing the praises of this time, which is officially called the victory of the strategic decisive decisive battle. When the praises are sung in unison, there is unavoidable mourning in the country of Israel.

At the high-level cabinet meeting, all senior Israeli military and political officials were present, but the atmosphere was dignified. The spacious round table conference hall was filled with smoke, reflecting gloomy and ugly faces.

There is only one question that lingers in everyone's mind. After the defeat of the First World War in the South, where should the war go.

In this battle, Israel is definitely throwing its national strength and betting on its national destiny.

That's right, in modern warfare, the standing equipment of active troops is used for early consumption of the war. The key to the victory or defeat of a war is often related to a country's strategic depth and industrial production capacity.

However, Israel's land area is too small, and its strategic depth can be ignored. After losing the battle in the south, Abya has already entered the hinterland of Israel directly.

Fortunately, before the war started, Gerald and other top government officials had the foresight to transfer and preserve nearly 80.00% of the country's military production lines. As long as they are in operation, they will still have the power to fight.

This is probably the main reason why everyone present looked ugly, but no despair was revealed in their eyes.

"We can still fight." Army Commander-in-Chief Bernal said in a deep voice, with determination in his deep eyes. The loss of the first battle in the south caused the biggest loss in the strength of the army, and none of the elite armored troops survived. Bernal was also holding back A fire, wanting to save face.

There were only a few responders present, the Minister of Industry rubbed his temples, and said: "We have established a rear base in the Elon area to process and produce overtime, but due to the lack of skilled workers, there are only a dozen production lines in operation now. I am afraid that we will not be able to provide sufficient weapons and equipment."

Elon is the northernmost town in Israel.It is further north than Haifa, an important city in the north. It is the Arab area of ​​Israel. There were many racial problems in the past. Fortunately, the number of people is small, and it is also suitable for establishing a rear base.

However, since the start of the war, Abyel has been looking for an important Israeli military base. Israeli radars have monitored the appearance of Abyel's reconnaissance plane near Haifa. It will be a matter of time before Elon's rear base is discovered.

This is also the reason why Abyelji's armor did not dare to move out, otherwise, the unscrupulous mecha would search everywhere.It won't take long to find out.

The meaning of the Minister of Industry is very clear. Judging from the tone, there seems to be a bit of a broken tone, as if to say, you want to continue fighting, you can, but you want weapons and equipment, no, it's not because of my negligence.It is really limited by reality, and the production and supply cannot be met.

Although the high-level executives at the scene did not see the complete report on these situations, they had a rough idea of ​​them.I also know that in the First World War in the South, the losses were too heavy, and the armored forces were almost wiped out.

As for the fighter group, from the beginning of the war.The Israeli Air Force is at a disadvantage, with huge losses, and now the whole country is up and down.There are probably less than [-] fighter jets that can still be put into battle.

Once the equipment is exhausted, there is nothing left, only people. In the face of Abyelji's steel torrent, flesh and blood is undoubtedly too fragile.

Gerald, who was seated at the top, raised his head. His face was extremely tired and ugly. He hadn't slept well for many days, and he had huge dark circles under his eyes, but his eyes were still sharp, with tears streaming out of his tough eyes. He asked in a deep voice, "Okay?" Now, if you have any other opinions, let us know."

Gerald didn't blame anyone for the defeat in the Southern War. Howlson's command was not good, but there was nothing wrong with it. It was quite satisfactory. There was only one reason for the loss, which was the gap in strength.

Israel is known as the strongest military country in the Middle East and one of the top ten military powers in the world, but who would have thought that it would not be able to handle even a newborn Abyel.

Therefore, Gerald will not blame anyone. Like every Jew, he does not care about past mistakes, but only looks forward, looking for remedies and solutions.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but couldn't tell what to do. Minister of Defense Zamir was far-sighted and had a very strategic vision, but now he had no idea.

But at this moment, Ibaka, the director of the Bureau of Statistics, who was sitting at the very back, suddenly lowered his voice and spoke.

Logically speaking, this kind of high-level meeting is held under the Ministry of Finance, and the director of the regional statistics bureau cannot attend it. However, with the beginning of the war, a lot of statistical coordination work has become more important, and Ibaka will also participate in some high-level meetings. , but generally do not have the right to speak, only to be asked questions by name.

It is a special case to take the initiative to speak this time.

Gerald is also familiar with Ibaka, a high-achieving student who graduated from Stanford University in the United States and later studied in Europe. He has a natural sensitivity to numbers. In various public occasions in China, there is often a saying on his lips that numbers determine everything.

Now, Gerald hopes that Ibaka can still have the confidence that numbers determine everything, and come up with some useful suggestions.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Ibaka, who was in his forties, still had a sullen face. He just dug out a document that he carried with him, walked to the back of the meeting room, pulled over a clipboard, and said, "I don't have anything too serious. Good idea, just want to ask you to look at some numbers."

Everyone frowned, and Bernal was quite dissatisfied. We are discussing the strategic importance of the country's destiny. What's the use of showing us the numbers? Do you want to use the numbers to tell us once again how serious our losses are?

Zamir stopped Bernal with his eyes, and then looked at Ibaka with a hesitant look. He felt that Ibaka wanted to say something at this time. This person has always been rigorous, not that kind of frivolity. eyeball people.

"Let's look at this set of figures first. According to IMF, Abyel's Federal Statistical Office, and the aggregated data from various aspects, last year, that is, in 2021, Abyel's GDP surpassed that of South Africa for the first time, reaching 15.00 million U.S. dollars, becoming Africa's No. 2021 An economy. However, it is worth noting that since the founding of the country, the GDP growth rate of Abya has exceeded 12.3% over the years. [-] percent"

"I have analyzed this situation and summarized the opinions of various international experts. I can boldly speculate that under the premise of global economic recovery, Abya's GDP growth rate has declined for the first time because it has reached the economic level. The peak and valley area of ​​development. Here. I can list a few figures. Among the proportions of gdp in the various regions of Abya, the capital Kaduli has a gdp contribution of 1316 billion, and the port city of Port Sudan has a gdp contribution of 765 billion , Khartoum, the largest city in the north, contributed 624 billion to GDP, and Obaid, the central city, 389 billion. The combined GDP contribution of these four major cities reached 3094 billion US dollars, accounting for more than 70.00% of the overall GDP."

With a calm face, Ibaka wrote numbers casually and talked eloquently, as if he was at his fingertips, with an extraordinary bearing.

However, everyone present, especially many high-ranking officials in the military, was completely at a loss when they heard this.Bernal tried his best to memorize those numbers, but he was confused for a long time, and shouted: "Stop it quickly, I don't know what the outcome of the war has to do with these numbers. In my opinion, you should stop talking about it."

Ibaka frowned, and was about to refute, but Zamir raised his hand.Said: "Ibaka, you continue to talk."

Zamil rested his chin on one hand, looking at the numbers on the blackboard with interest.Seems to think of something.

Ibaka continued: "This extreme gdp composition structure has a huge relationship with Abyei's economic policy. I am not accusing this economic policy of being bad. The point-shaped economic center gradually drives the surrounding areas. The development of the economy is a very common way in the early stage of economic development."

What Ibaka said is true. Yang Tian’s economic policy was indeed based on such considerations. There is Khartoum in the north, Port Sudan on the northeast coast, Obaid in the center, and Kaduli in the hinterland of the south. Road, point to area, and finally drive the national economy.

No economic expert can accuse this economic strategy of being wrong.

"However, no economic policy is perfect. From one point to another, a large number of people and resources from low-development areas flood into high-development areas, providing economic development momentum, making a city or region develop rapidly and expansively. If in the later stage, high-development If the region feeds back the underdeveloped regions, it will drive economic development in an all-round way.”

"However, during this period, there will be a blank period. Some areas are highly developed, and the effect of driving the area in a short period of time is not too strong. There will be a hollow economic development, extremes at both ends, a few highly developed areas, and large areas. The region is highly impoverished. This blank period will change according to the specific regulation of the government, whether it is long or short, and it is the most critical and dangerous time for economic development. The best way is to make a smooth transition, gradually shrink the economy, and slow down the pace of development.”

Zamir interjected: "Ibaka, what you mean is that there is a problem with the economic policy of Abya. No, there are hidden dangers. Cities such as Kaduli are highly developed and have reached a development bottleneck."

What Ibaka said was cloudy and foggy, but Zamil's words were much more concise and straightforward. The expressions of everyone present suddenly became serious, and they looked at Ibaka in unison.

Ibaka nodded vigorously, and said: "The general situation is like this. I can give a few figures to prove it at will. The house price in Kaduli is inflated. Six and so on."

The economy is a digital world. Undoubtedly, in this regard, Ibaka has a natural sensitivity and can dig out all useful information from numbers.

"According to the fiscal budget and economic policy analysis announced by Abya in early 2022, Abya has also consciously shrunk its economy and regulated economic development to solve this hidden danger."

"But at this time, Abyel has already launched a war!" Ibaka slapped the clipboard suddenly, and said decisively.

"Over the years, Abyar's fiscal revenue has accounted for about 30.00% of GDP, reaching more than 1000 billion US dollars, and more than 50.00% of these fiscal revenues have been invested in the development of armaments. In just five years, Abyar has expanded its military by 50% Wan, established a relatively sound logistics support system, maintained an armored force with more than [-] armors, thousands of fighter jets, and built a huge naval fleet."

"Although this is related to ABC's astonishing production capacity and special capital structure, the above-mentioned investments cannot be satisfied by pure fiscal revenue. The government of Abya has issued a large amount of national debt to the private sector, with a total amount of more than 6000 billion U.S. dollars."

"If there is no war and the economy is developing rapidly, these problems will not be a problem. However, the Abyei government has launched a war. Since the war started, we have done statistics. Every day, the military expenditure of Abyei is on average. It reached 6.3 million U.S. dollars, more than three times the U.S. war expenditure in the Iraq war."

"Combining all aspects, such as Abya's central bank's financial reserves, foreign export trade, and investment reduction due to the war, I can boldly speculate that if the war continues until September this year, then Abya's economic problems will There will be a full-scale explosion, and they will be dragged down by the economy!"

Ibaka put down the marker pen, looked ahead, and said loudly with confidence.

Everyone present was completely dumbfounded when they saw this inconspicuous person who shouted that numbers determine everything. (To be continued..)
