The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

"You will only be alarmist! The so-called failure is just because of the arrogance and pride of those guys in front, ignoring serious investigation and prudent combat command! The empire will always have enough power to easily defeat China! Even with that outbreak It's the same with the boy of Huhu!"

Hideki Tojo screamed with his eyes puffed out, and leaned on the table with clenched fists, as if he was about to pounce on him at any time. The people around him were terrified. By the way, this guy also likes to mess around. What a good temper. &&

In addition, I also disapproved of Ishihara Waner's opinion, not to mention the matter of the navy, but the matter of the Sixth Division was obviously a big mistake by accident!

Daisaku Kawamoto expressed his dissent: "The failure of the Sixth Division was an accident? The opponent put three times the number of soldiers in the two armies, three times the firepower of heavy artillery and machine guns, and added overly strong fortresses to cause such setbacks, but Something like this won't happen a second time."

When Seishiro Itagaki challenged the Northeast Army's 20-strong army with a division and won, his confidence was quite overwhelming. He always sneered at the combat capability of the Chinese Army. Even though he was an old partner with Ishihara, he didn't think so, and retorted: : "That's just a special case, not universal. In the real battle of the [-] imperial army conquest, it is impossible for some insidious schemes to succeed again. Shi Yuan-kun thinks too much."

A sarcasm appeared on the corners of Ishihara Waner's lips, and he squinted at him and said quietly: "Do you think so too? Why do you dare to assert that when our army launched a large-scale attack, the squadron is still your impression? Don't you know that in the past two years, they have set up three newest arsenals, and successfully manufactured 105mm cannons, and are researching 150mm heavy guns? You know. They have been facing all the time It's a miscellaneous army, not their Yang army! Not to mention, that rich Zhu Bin has been hiding his strength. Who can be sure that he will still only have recruits from two regiments by then, instead of two divisions or even more?"

Hideki Tojo couldn't listen at all, and as soon as he finished speaking, he retorted: "It's not like we haven't fought the so-called Zhongyang Army. Aren't the two divisions that appeared in the Great Wall Fortress the direct descendants of Chairman Jiang? Even if they invited the Germans The advisory group, the national inferiority in their bones determines that the Japanese army without the will to fight is impossible to win! Zhu Bin or something. I am afraid that it is too late to deal with their internal strife and struggle. Make him strong!"

The tit-for-tat confrontation between the two made a group of former colleagues and classmates watch with gusto. When these two guys get together, they will collide like sparks. Whether it is true or not, this drama must be interesting!

Ishihara Waner seemed to want to vent.Pass updates are no longer hidden, silent, or agitated.Zheng Zheng said calmly in his voice: "The year before last, China could only produce less than 100 tons of steel. Last year, they had a production capacity of 35 million tons and an output of 60 tons. By the end of this year, they will reach 200 tons. , the iron and steel plant in chong qing will start production at the end of next year, and it will reach a total of 20 million tons! And they will have the production capacity of [-] trucks, cars and [-] agricultural tractors. And the manufacturing capacity of [-] tons of ships, [-] The assembly capabilities of fighter jets, as well as tanks and electronic products that cannot be calculated. According to the latest information, they have studied the radar that plays an important role, and they can also drive bombers directly into the sky over Tokyo. They just took a test flight in the United States half a month ago. A large four-engined passenger plane has been successfully developed, and it can even exploit oil hundreds of meters deep in the sea. Let me ask you, do you think this is the strength that China should have?"

The crowd immediately stood up.Calculating the data carefully, he couldn't help but look down, this is a bit of a joke!In just two years, China seems to be catching up with Japan in many aspects!

All of you present here are elites from the Japanese empire. They are well aware that comprehensive national strength is the foundation of war potential. The current Japanese steel output is only under 500 million tons, cars and trucks are almost nonexistent, and shipbuilding is only 30 tons. , Bombers are lagging behind in all respects, oil exploration and so on just started to toss, and if you put it all together, China has started to change its face without knowing it? !

Hideki Tojo snorted coldly with a dark face: "So what! 40 years ago, the national output of the Manchu Qing Empire accounted for one-fifth of the world's output, and the Beiyang Fleet was stronger than the Imperial Navy. As a result, a war laid the foundation for us. A thousand-year-old foundation! The so-called developed economy is not supported by a firm fighting will, after all, it is the food in the mouth of the Imperial Army! The result of the knife! It will only make our victory more brilliant!"

The few guys who are not firm will be right when they hear this!At the beginning, the ancestors of the empire came here like this. Even in the battle with the Russian Maozi 30 years ago, His Excellency Nogi Xidian Junshen sacrificed [-] soldiers and won the landing point on the Liaodong Peninsula. Only then did he have the adventure three years ago. To strike, to get today's fertile land in the four provinces of Manchuria... makes sense!

Ishihara sneered and said: "Don't compare the Qing Dynasty with the current China. There are too many people who are hostile to the empire now! One is the opposition party that can not be wiped out by the government's million-strong army, and the other is the new The emergence of young elites with hundreds of millions of dollars in assets, the existence of two aspects is enough to cause unpredictable strategic changes in the empire, it is better to take them seriously! Don't say anything else, what do you think, is there any way to deal with it? The armored combat vehicles that appeared last year? In this military exercise, they showed amazing combat capabilities, stronger than all the tanks in the empire. There is also the air force. When it comes to the Ministry of Finance’s claim that it has no money, this should be considered even more, don’t Forget, the most important task of the current empire is to quickly complete the immigration plan!"

In one sentence, the twists and turns made many people startled, remembering that there is still this problem!Among them, many of them have only recently learned that there is a land sinking crisis in the mainland of the empire. No wonder they have been forced to immigrate desperately since last year.But the problem is that those farmers are really not very obedient. After they got it to Manchuria, they were allocated hundreds of acres of fertile land, but they refused to cultivate it properly. There is simply no way to run back to the country to enjoy the happiness!

But this is an important issue that has to be taken seriously. In the final analysis, isn't the empire's repeated adventures and expansions just to live a stable life without worrying about the end of earthquakes, volcanoes, etc. all day long?But now that the conditions are met, what if the people are disobedient?

Hideki Tojo can’t be stubborn anymore, he also has a headache. The Manchurian colonization project that Yoshisuke Ayukawa and he and a few others are partnering with first requires a large number of citizens as the basis, otherwise, what does the East Army care about there? Use it!

"We must be serious! These peasants cannot be allowed to mess around! The future of the empire cannot be decided by themselves!" Seishiro Itagaki gritted his teeth murderously, his eyes were red.

Kenji Doihara watched coldly, and found that Ishihara Waner gradually dominated the atmosphere after a few words. He nodded slightly imperceptibly, and then said: "Ishihara-kun must have a corresponding method? This is an issue that everyone should care about."

"Yes! The success or failure of immigration is related to whether our sacrifice and hard work can reflect the value. We must pay attention to this aspect. Shi Yuan-kun may wish to talk about it."

More than half of the expectant eyes shot over, Ishihara Waner decided to vomit to the end, his calm face could not see the waves, but the coldness was pressing when he opened his mouth: "We must take a decisive method and burn down the houses of every immigrant's hometown. The land will be confiscated, those who stay honestly in Manchuria will be rewarded, and those who dare to escape will be suppressed and fined!"

Everyone gasped in unison, so cruel!If you don't go, you won't be able to go directly!

Hideki Tojo was upset when he heard that, and he hummed: "That will only force the peasants to rebel! Have you considered the consequences?!"

Ishihara Waner didn't even bother to answer this stupid question, is it useful for peasants to rebel?But he still added: "In addition to strong means, there must be auxiliary measures. Farmers must be educated to improve their quality; the state must provide support for mechanized farming, and investment should not be stingy; efforts must be made to realize the urbanization of Manchuria and provide a large number of jobs. "

A few points are simple and to the point, but it reveals his deliberation, stabilizing the peasants as the foundation, urbanization as expansion, and retaining workers with jobs, the shelf of this new empire area has been erected.

"In this way, we need to invest a lot more money! The current scale is far from enough." Yoshisuke Ayukawa interjected and sighed, but he didn't know if he intended to speak to a group of future cabinet elites. .He is the leader of a consortium, and what he wants is the combination of economic interests and political interests. If he just spends his own money, the efficiency is too low, and he can't do big projects!

To be honest, in the past two years, Japan has invested a lot of money in the Northeast. Hundreds of millions of money are spent every year. Coal mines, iron mines, steel factories, automobile factories, aircraft factories, and arsenals are all being restored and expanded. The magnitude is not small.But it also depends on what standard it is compared with. According to the speed of the empire's ten-year immigration plan, quadruple is not enough.

Ishihara Waner's eyes shone with wisdom, and he said decisively: "We must increase investment! If you have no money, you can borrow from the Germans and Americans. The key is to be fast! It must be faster than the Chinese! Since last year, China's industrial investment is increasing at a rate of no less than [-] million U.S. dollars, if we don't work hard, there will be big troubles in five years' time!"

"Two hundred million U.S. dollars! That's four hundred million imperial coins! There's so much in a year, where do they get so much money!?"

Not everyone is well-informed. Ishihara Waner's numbers scare a lot of people. No wonder the industry in China is growing so fast, and the co-author has such a large investment. It's unimaginable!

Hideki Tojo stared and shouted: "What do you need? Five years later, wouldn't it be better to kill them all now?!"

This time, even Yoshisuke Ayukawa and a few radicals couldn't stand listening to him, and looked at him with weird eyes. Needless to say, I knew the meaning, how could things be so simple!Or what Shi Yuan said makes sense, the Chinese are hiding their strengths and biding their time, and we have to wait for the time being and try our best to mend the holes first!To be continued. .
