Remember spn in one second [] mnghungj provides you with wonderful novels to read.

Six years have passed since the outbreak of war in 1914.

After six years, many people died in this world war.

In addition to the European battlefield, many people died, and the Asian battlefield also killed many people, but the main ones who died were the Russians and Japanese.

The Russians and the Japanese are also the countries that pose the greatest threat to China. [

Among them, the European battlefield, including civilians, killed about 1900 million people, including civilian casualties during Russia's participation in the war between the two camps.

On the Asian battlefield, more than 800 million soldiers and civilians died, and the Republic of China massacred about 200 million Russians and nomads in Russia.

During the Sino-Japanese War, about 400 million Japanese soldiers and civilians died. In addition to the wars in the Indochina Peninsula, Indonesia, and the Philippines, as well as the cleanup of monkeys in Southeast Asia, more than 200 million people died.

In the Soviet-Russian Civil War, the massacres on both sides resulted in the death of more than 2000 million people in Russia. In addition to the previous participation in the European War, the number of soldiers and civilians who died in Russia was as high as 2600 million.Originally there were 13 billion people in Russia, but now there are only about 7000 million people left in Russia, among which the adult labor force has lost the most.

The reason why so many people died in the Russian war is mainly because the two sides did not mainly fight positional warfare like the European battlefield, and not so many civilians were affected.

Civilians also participated in Russia’s civil war. Mass massacres resulted in a death toll worse than that of European battlefields. In addition, China plundered tens of millions of Russian labor force, and women also plundered tens of millions. Of the remaining 7000 million people .Many are old and weak women and children.

The country of Russia has been crippled.

Looking at Europe again, the one that was beaten and maimed in Europe is actually the United Kingdom.France and Germany seem to be fighting hard. In fact, as long as these two countries have funds, they can recover quickly after the war.

But Britain can't do it. Britain's industrial level, coupled with its economic structure, is doomed to make it difficult for Britain to recover after this war.

Britain past, by waving his baton.Ship the raw materials from British colonies around the world back to the UK, and then process them into commodities and sell them, because there are many colonies.So the product is not worried about sales.

The main commodities of Britain are not only textiles, coal, and steel, but these three commodities are relatively easy to develop in backward countries.

Weaving and coal mining have no technical level.The technical level of steelmaking is higher.But you can also make steel by local methods!Although the efficiency may be lower, there is no shortage of idle labor in backward countries. Due to the low labor cost, the steel produced by national industries with lower efficiency than British steelmaking is also competitive.

In addition, China's industrial scale has become the largest in the world, and at the same time it has occupied a large number of colonial markets. It is already very difficult for the British to regain these markets.

In addition, in terms of the service industry, Asia and Oceania have completely retreated financially, and the country's ocean transportation has to rely on merchant ships from other countries.

during the war.Also sold a lot of overseas assets.

In addition, a large amount of gold was outflowed, and the value of the British pound was greatly depreciated.This greatly weakened Britain's ability to use the pound to exploit the world.

All kinds of problems have severely damaged the British economy, and the problems cannot be solved by relying on some funds.

First of all, the income of British nationals has been greatly reduced, but their imports have not been reduced.The British industrial system has many commodities that it cannot produce.

In the past, the UK had to import those commodities from France, Germany, and the United States, and the trade deficit reached 1 million pounds a year. It was basically very difficult for the UK to develop those industries independently. [

Because the Republic of China and the United States have developed, the two major countries are exporting these products, and Germany has a precision processing industry for export. The end of Britain's advantageous industries has made it a big problem whether Britain can make up for its trade deficit after the war.

In addition, the British "government" still has to repay loans to China and the United States every year, and also has to repay the Rothschild consortium and the public, making the financial situation even worse.

The world system built by Britain has collapsed.

Therefore, the biggest loser in this battle is not Germany, but the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom has actually fallen from the position of world leader.

……

Germany was defeated and Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated. These things seemed to be dazzling, making it difficult for people all over the world to predict for a while.

But the war was over, and people were running around saying it.

This catastrophe in Europe, in addition to the war, there is also the American swine flu, which is the Spanish flu.

This flu caused many civilian deaths in Britain and France, and many Allied soldiers died of American swine flu, but the Allied countries were different. The civilians and soldiers of the Allied countries were injected with the swine flu vaccine aided by China and died of swine flu. There are not many.

The Republic of China sold flu vaccines in the autumn of 1918 and made a fortune. Whether it was in Europe, America, South America, or India, the rich had to pay high prices to buy them.

Only overseas Chinese have received free vaccines from the Republic of China.

The Republic of China collected almost 5 million Yanhuang coins in the world by relying on flu vaccines. This is a very large amount. First, it was sold to the rich at a high price. After the market for the rich was saturated, it was sold at a lower price to the poor. Anyway, it can be collected Scrape as much as possible.

But because of the advent of the flu vaccine, not so many people died from the flu.

When Europeans felt that the disaster was over, they wept with joy.

The British and French people cheered loudly, and they won.

Americans are also celebrating their victory in the war against the Allies. In this war, the United States lost millions of American troops and injured as many as 150 million.

Such casualties made President Wilson somewhat passive.

The war lasted for so long that the people of the Allies resented the Allies and demanded that Germany be severely punished.

The major newspapers of the Republic of China also made extensive reports on the end of the war in Europe, and speculated about how the Allied Powers would treat the surrendered Allies.

……

When the European War ended, Jiang Yu immediately held a secret meeting.

The secret meeting was attended by important officials from the military, political, business, and scientific research circles.More than 300 people were invited to participate in the meeting. [

These people are all important components of the ruling class of the Republic of China today.

Political circles, both Democrats and Republicans attended.

As for the group of Kang Liang and Sun Wen.are still excluded.

As for the business community, Yuan Keding participated in the meeting, and warlords engaged in business such as Cao Kun and Yan Xishan also attended the meeting.Zhang Jian, Zhu Baosan, You Xianjia and other first batch of national capital merchants from the East China Chamber of Commerce also attended the meeting.In addition, Zhou Ziyue and Chen Guangfu, vice presidents of the East China Chamber of Commerce, also participated in the meeting.

In terms of military circles, Jiang Fangzhen, Tang Hanmin, Zhou Zhengye, Xie Baozhang, Duan Qirui, Wu Peifu and others also attended the meeting.

"Everyone knows that the war in Europe is over, and the civil war in Russia is also over. This is very regrettable news, and we can no longer sell arms." Jiang Yu said standing in front of everyone at the meeting.There was a chuckle immediately below, and Jiang Yu continued: "So, what kind of world structure will we face after the war. What should we do? Look here."

Jiang Yu opened a huge map.

Then he pointed to the territory of the Republic of China and the United States and said: "In this world-scale war, the biggest beneficiaries are actually the Republic of China and the United States. But the Rothschild consortium is still the financial hegemony of Europe and the United States." The American consortium after the war is not their opponent, and the Juncker consortium has also compromised with the Rothschild consortium at this time. Only our China National Capital Group and the Rothschild consortium are fighting against each other."

"But the Rothschild consortium has fallen behind. They have no national borders. They are doomed to perish eventually." Jiang Yu said to everyone: "With the development of science and technology, the distance between countries is shrinking. Ten years ago, we The only way to go to Europe is by boat. Today, ten years later, we have airplanes. Ten years later, the "performance" of airplanes will be higher, and the distance between countries will be further shortened. That is to say. In the post-war world, It is no longer a world of small countries. Neither Britain, nor France, nor Germany can be regarded as a world power. This world will be the stage for those superpowers with large territories, large populations, and large-scale industries."

Everyone listened carefully, their eyes widened when they heard this, and they began to search on the map.

Jiang Yu pointed to the map and said: "There are not many people who meet this condition. The first is our Republic of China, which has the largest industrial scale in the world, the largest population in the world, and the largest laboratory scale in the world. The second is the United States. Before the war, the American industry was already the sum of Europe, and now the United States has a lot of surplus capital, and the population of the United States has reached almost 1 million people. The United States also has the conditions to develop into a superpower. The third is the red "" Russia, the red "" Russia has a huge land, and if they can develop enough industries, they may also develop into a superpower. The fourth is a united Europe. As long as Europe is united, it can also form a superpower. That is Said that we will face a threat from the United States, and at the same time there are two potential threats from Russia and Europe.”

"Commander, we are now developing like this, and the white world will inevitably panic. Can Europe really unite?" Tang Hanmin asked aloud.

"It is impossible for Europe to unite. Because the Rothschild consortium has no national borders. As the financial hegemony of Europe and the United States, the Rothschild consortium has to play a balance if they want to survive without national borders." The policy is to prevent the emergence of a superpower in Europe. Once a superpower emerges in Europe, their fate is to be eliminated. In a balanced state, every country in Europe has to rely on the Rothschild Consortium so that they can Survive."

"So, although Germany was defeated, Germany after the war will never be under military control. If Germany is not under military control, then the German Junkers consortium established by Bismarck will continue to exist. Therefore, Germany's competitiveness will not decline, even if It was Germany who ceded some land and paid some indemnities. On the contrary, the United Kingdom has been completely weakened after this war. Their overseas markets, ocean transportation, and overseas assets will all shrink sharply, but their imports will continue to increase. France and Germany is different, as long as they have the funds, they can recover quickly."

"So, this war was actually lost by Britain. Although Germany seems to have failed, their surrounding environment has improved. First of all, Tsarist Russia perished, and the red "red" "hair" bears must guard against our Republic of China. It will not expand to Europe. In addition, the Austro-Hungarian Empire will also perish, and the threat of the Austro-Hungarian Empire to Germany will also be eliminated. The Rothschild consortium now wants to balance Europe. The Rothschild consortium will never be willing to compromise, and the American consortium will not be willing to continue to surrender to the Rothschild consortium. Therefore, the Junker consortium and the American consortium will unite to resist the Rothschild consortium. Once the balance is broken, the Rothschild consortium will The Childe consortium will be hit hard."

"So Europe can never be monolithic. Maybe they are temporarily united with the rise of the Republic of China, but as long as we provoke them, we can easily destroy their union. Then after the war, we should try our best to provoke European countries Relationship."

"Looking at Red Russia again, after years of wars in Red Russia, the population has increased from 13 billion to more than 7000 million. The country's economy is on the verge of collapse, and only the pre-war industrial production remains. One-eighth, and agricultural production is only about a quarter of what it was before the war. This year, there will be a drought in "red" Russia, and this drought may last until next year. Therefore, if "red" Russia wants to develop into a superpower First, there is no technology, and second, there is not enough population. It is relatively difficult to develop into a superpower. However, we must prevent Europe and the United States from exporting technology to Red Russia. If Europe and the United States export technology to Red Russia, the Red 'Russia is going to be a big problem. So we're going to keep hitting the red 'hair' bears and never give them too much respite."

"Having said so much, everyone must have seen it. After the war, Britain can no longer maintain its position as the world's hegemon. There will be a power vacuum in the world structure. And the newly-born superpowers will compete to seize the world's hegemony , so as to exploit the whole world. The post-war world is about to enter a new era of hegemony, and it is an era of global hegemony. And our Republic of China is a seed player in the world hegemony, and our main opponent is the rising United States. If If we don’t move forward bravely and strive for world hegemony, then the Republic of China will continue to be threatened by new world hegemons in the future.”

Jiang Yu said loudly: "We have the world's largest industrial scale, the world's largest population, the world's largest territory, and the most advanced industrial and military technology. As long as everyone here understands, the current stage Struggle is an external struggle, not an internal struggle. Wealth comes from the world, not from exploiting our fellow man. As long as we are united, we can fight for world hegemony. But after we become world hegemony, we can exploit everyone A country, none of you present here, will gain unimaginable huge benefits. Similarly, our Chinese nation will stand at an unprecedented height, and we will all be famous in history."

Everyone who participated in the meeting stood up excitedly when they heard this, and the applause continued. (to be continued)
