The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

spnps: The first update arrives!

The U.S. military had no choice but to retreat to Manila because the bridge was blown up.

The surrounding areas of Manila are relatively well-developed areas, where there is abundant rainfall, flowers, plants, and fruit trees flourish.It is a large area of ​​plantations, and the growers have a large number of tropical fruits such as sugar cane, banana, pineapple, and mango, which are well-known in the international market.Therefore, the Philippine Islands enjoy the reputation of "Pacific Fruit Plate" and "Garden Island".

The U.S. troops in Nai retreated to Manila, and there was no room for deployment on the battlefield.

There is no rainforest to hold on here, only one city. [

The Chinese Army is the army that is best at street fighting. This was fully demonstrated in the riots in Hanoi, Vietnam, and the Chinese uprising in Indonesia.

The Batangas landing battle was carried out smoothly. The No.20 Eighth Division of the Chinese National Defense Forces had approached the deep area from Batangas.

……

The outbreak of the Sino-US war has greatly affected international trade.

First of all, American products are not shipped to the Asian market and the Australian market. Similarly, Chinese products cannot be shipped to the South American market.

However, British merchant ships played the role of transportation, but the two sides could not directly transport goods to these places.

But after the declaration of war, the battlefield of the two sides was limited to the Philippines, because the two sides had no other intersections, and the two sides were indeed far away across the Pacific Ocean.

In general, it does not have much impact on the world structure, this is just a local war.

After the war broke out, both sides also confiscated the other's assets in their respective countries.It's just that the assets of the United States in China have reached 1000 million US dollars at this time. This is mainly the reason for the appreciation of these American assets after the outbreak of World War I, while China's assets in the United States.Not even [-] million.

After the Republic of China confiscated American assets, it immediately made a fortune.

The U.S. government is depressed, and there is no money confiscated at all.The Chinese have also almost evacuated in the United States, leaving only some Chinese laborers who have signed contracts of prostitution, and Cuba has the largest number of them.

But those Chinese laborers were also the focus of this war.

The U.S. government did not dare to do anything to these Chinese workers for a while, because after the two sides declared war, China also detained Americans in China.

Among the countries in the world at this time.Except for small countries such as Belgium, assets in China of Britain, Russia, Germany, and France have all been sold to China in succession in exchange for war supplies.

None sold.Except for those small countries that did not participate in the war, it is the United States.

The American consortium also has a large amount of surplus capital in their hands. Only some Americans sold their assets back to the United States to invest after the outbreak of the First World War, but the number is not large.

After the Republic of China confiscated the assets of the United States, how many foreign capitals existed in China.

The only remaining foreign capital is also from some small European countries.

This huge market of [-] million people.It's all China's own.For such foreign investment in small European countries.The Republic of China has also adopted a policy of increasing taxes, which means that most of their profits have to be used to pay taxes, and there will always be a day when they cannot continue their business. [

China only needs to cultivate its own market well, and it is enough to compete with Europe and the United States.

Regarding this Sino-US war, the United Kingdom has only shown weakness. The United Kingdom has tried its best to stop China's expansion in Southeast Asia. Who can stop China in Asia at this time?

Block China's fate, just like Japan.

nineteenth century.It's the era of naval warfare.

The [-]th century is the era of air combat.

China has wielded the most formidable military power of our time.China's dominance in Asia is already unshakable, and even the United Kingdom is trying to get involved.

The U.S. government obviously understands this too. After the war started, only a symbolic mobilization was carried out, and the Philippines must not be able to keep it.

The U.S. Navy is even more afraid to go to Asia. The island chain in the Western Pacific has become a death zone for navies around the world. In the past, it was just looking for death.

The United States wants to retaliate against China, but can't find any way.

Who made the United States extend its claws to Asia, but China did not extend its claws to America at all. To put it bluntly, it is like two elementary school students robbing a table.

Both sides draw a [-]-point line.

If you dare to cross the line, you will be hacked to death.

For this reason, the U.S. government in Chennai can only wait. After the Philippine campaign is over, the two sides will discuss the issue of captives and Chinese laborers.

On February 1917, 2, after nearly half a month of progress, the Chinese army landed in Batangas and successfully surrounded Manila. At the same time, the occupation of various islands in the Philippines was also fully launched.

In this battle, the Chinese army invested 20 troops, scattered all over the islands of the Philippine archipelago, and occupied it in a comprehensive manner.

The US military in Manila is under tremendous pressure every day.

Especially after Manila was completely surrounded, the US troops in Manila were immediately encircled and suppressed.

With the cooperation of aircraft and chariots, the Chinese Army's offensive on the first day even broke through the three lines of defense of the US military and directly invaded the city of Manila.

The U.S. troops in Manila simply surrendered.

This is the 'mildew army' of this era, an army with low will to fight.

Americans fighting wars are like going to work to make money. For Americans, this is just a job, and for the government, it is just a kind of employment.

This is an army that, under the cover of many aircraft and artillery warships, was able to lose the Korean War and the Vietnam War one after another. [

The moldy army of later generations can only beat the weak Middle Easterners, so as to regain some self-confidence.

The Chinese Army has a strong sense of honor and national consciousness, as well as the unique spirit of dedication and sacrifice in oriental culture. Chinese soldiers can dedicate themselves to victory without hesitation.

This is caused by cultural differences between the two sides.

The history of the United States has created a strong self-awareness of Americans. The United States is a country of immigrants. White Americans immigrated from Europe to America. The whites who will go to America are the whites who can cut off the connection with Europe. There are such people. Strongly self-centered personality.

That is to say, the isolated nature of Americans prevents them from dedicating to others, because in their opinion.Others have nothing to do with them.

It is really good to be good for yourself. As for the country or something, it can only be ranked second.

Many Americans will not sacrifice themselves for the country.

China is different.Chinese people have a strong sense of society. In ancient China, there was a Datong society, which was very similar to socialism.

The simplest example is that when a disaster occurs somewhere in China, the state must take care of it. This has been the case since ancient times.Although the Datong society in China has gone far, many things still remain.

So in China.The country and the people are closely linked.In the eyes of the Chinese people, it is natural for the government to provide disaster relief, and it is also natural for the Chinese people to dedicate themselves to the country.

This is not the case in Western countries.Especially in the United States, if you suffer a disaster, you will suffer a disaster. If you live in a tent by yourself, the country will at most give you some food and water.Post-disaster reconstruction is your own business.

It is this cultural difference that exists.The relief work of the Wenchuan earthquake in later generations of China was better than that of other countries.

It is also the cultural heritage built by the ancient sages that gave China the foundation for its rise at this time.

If a country wants to rise, its cultural background is indeed very important.

Chinese traditional culture is inclusive and open enough.What did Westerners do in modern times and modern times that China did not experience in ancient times?

In terms of socialism, China has a Datong society.

Even MLM is a bad game in ancient China. In ancient China, there was an organization called "Baozihui".It is an organization that expands through the MLM model, but has been severely suppressed by successive dynasties.This just disappeared.

That is to say, no matter what Westerners come up with, they can always find something similar in Chinese history.

Moreover, Chinese characters are also extremely inclusive, because Chinese characters are the most extensive and profound in the world, so when Western works are translated into Chinese, Chinese can polish them.However, when Chinese works are translated into English, English cannot find the vocabulary to accommodate those idioms and other words in Chinese, which naturally seems awkward.

To put it bluntly, Chinese characters are too high-level to be accepted by Western characters.Western characters are too low-level, and Chinese characters can be easily eaten.

Although the ancient sages did not embark on the road of expansion, they left a good cultural heritage for China at this time. This culture not only refers to words, but also includes national consciousness and behavior habits.

The reason why Japan can rise is that it has partially inherited the culture established by Chinese sages, and the most important thing is the hard work and dedication of the people.

In terms of military alone, this culture has also created the great dedication and strong willpower of Chinese soldiers at this time.

The willpower of soldiers in Western countries is far inferior to that of Chinese soldiers, and the willpower of American soldiers is the worst among Western countries.

In order to save their lives, the surrender of the US military in Manila is not surprising at all.

On the same day, the US troops in Manila came out one after another and disarmed China one by one.The Chinese army then entered Manila and took control of the streets.

The Battle of the Philippines is basically over.

During the landing of the Chinese army in Luzon, the air force killed more than [-] American soldiers, and the army killed more than [-] American soldiers.

More than [-] American soldiers were captured.

Nearly [-] Filipino native troops were captured.

At the same time, a lot of combat materials were seized.

However, these seizures are just a drop in the bucket of the battle.

The Philippines has extremely rich agricultural resources. For a country with a population of [-] million, what is missing?What is lacking is agricultural resources.

The more agricultural resources, the better. The more agricultural resources, the more things people can eat, and the better their lives will be.

The Philippines is a place where economic crops are well developed. The main crops are coconut, sugarcane, abaca, tobacco, banana, pineapple, mango, rice, corn, etc.

There are more than 400 species of fish along the coast, and the fishery resources are also quite rich. The resources of tuna are also one of the most abundant areas in the world.

After being developed by the Spaniards and Americans during the occupation period, the agriculture of the Philippines was able to generate a lot of income for China every year.

At the same time, in the Philippines, there are still a large amount of copper ore resources. The Philippines has a world-class copper mine, and at the same time, it also has nickel ore resources accounting for 16% of the world. Nickel ore is an extremely important industrial raw material that can be used to manufacture stainless steel and the like. It is widely used in industrial applications.

There are also many reserves of gold, silver and chrome ore resources.

Phosphate ore, guano, clay, dolomite, feldspar, limestone, marble, perlite, silica, stone, sand, salt, diorite, serpentinite, etc. in non-metallic minerals.

When the Spaniards and Americans were running the Philippines, their investment in the Philippines would not be less than one billion U.S. dollars, and now it is all owned by the Chinese government. (To be continued.)
