The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

( ) That guy must be crazy!

Anyone who knew about Zhu Bin and had serious entanglements with him couldn't help exclaiming similarly. Ri himself, who was so devastated, couldn't help but danced in ecstasy. There really... There is no better news than this!

The ocean-going fleet has remained on paper since Zhu Bin announced it. For two full years, no one has seen a new warship that was said to be specially built for it. Up to now, the warship has been launched at an incredible speed , are all prepared for the three major fleets, and have also entered the actual combat queue. This name is full of aggressiveness, and the armed organization that makes countries very vigilant, but it has been missing for a long time.

Now, with the dizzying and rapid changes in the international situation, the big division of the WorldCom Group, which can be described as earth-shattering, and concerned people are all speculating about what kind of huge trouble it will bring, but they never expected that the first thing to come out is actually it is this!

The so-called ocean-going fleet, how many assets does the original global defense company have?After the disbandment, the totally unscrupulous foreign devils quickly vented to him through various channels. . .

After dismantling several businesses such as high-end security and warehouse resident security, the global defense company is mainly left with a few businesses that no one wants to take over.First, as an offensive force, more than 5000 field corps are stationed in battalions or companies in more than a dozen special port terminals or leased stations of Shitong Group around the world, ready to take the initiative to attack dangerous situations in various nearby places at any time.

To be honest, the quality of this group of fighters is quite good. Not only do they all have amphibious combat skills, but they have also been trained in parachute airdrops, night raids, mountain operations, and beach landings. Conditions for special training, the quality is leveraged.

It's a pity that the vast majority of these people are Chinese, and the foreign devils didn't expect to make such a force at first.In addition, the people sent by their country can't bear the hardship, and they don't know whether it is useful, so apart from sending in a very small number of active military officers from various countries with missions for training, it is the Germans who have established an organic battalion. The men and horses performed all the subjects.

In this separation, all countries have brought back their own people, and the remaining main combat power.Lao Jiang wanted to get all the elite soldiers and titans in the past, so he was envious!But when you look at their wages and combat conditions, you can stop eating. They are all a bunch of uncles who can't afford to serve them.And these people only have Boss Zhu and Jiang in their eyes, and they don't serve them!

The second is the amphibious combat force, a total of twelve new destroyers ranging from 4000 tons to 5 tons, more than [-] large and small landing craft and armed speedboats, and hundreds of armored vehicles, tanks, and thousands of ships. multi-terrain vehicle.Trucks and all that don't count, too many.And there are a total of more than [-] sea and land logistics troops and as many as [-] logistics personnel to complement each other.

The amount of money spent on this piece is quite a lot, not to mention those expensive advanced weapons, in order to accommodate them, the dozen or so stations rented around the world are a lot of money, wages, insurance subsidies and so on are considered small, the key is .The maintenance cost of that group of ships has caught up with the navies of small countries like Argentina and Brazil!

Naturally, it is much more powerful than the Chinese navy back then.The most advanced destroyer can almost destroy the entire Chinese navy... It's not an exaggeration, the difference in military equipment is too obvious!

The third piece is the air force that has not yet formed a stable establishment. It is equipped with a total of 12.7 fighter planes and a few transport planes. Because it is too sensitive, there are no bombers.In addition, it is nominally dealing with pirates and robbers, and there is no need for too brutal firepower, so the models equipped are all early models. The maximum caliber of weapons is only [-]mm heavy machine guns, and aerial bombs and rockets are not to be expected.

This part of the pilots plus ground support Lin Lin always looks like 5000 people.It also occupies a large area among more than a dozen bases as a hangar and runway. The pilots are old fritters from all over the world. They are usually unruly and unruly. There are five people and six people.

Countries don’t treat these people very well, they basically don’t need them when they go home, and there are a lot of problems with eating together and waiting to die, so it’s better to give Zhu Bin a headache. If you have to pay liquidated damages for unilateral dismissal, you won't do it!

The fourth piece is the staff of various ports, docks, and base facilities prepared for these people and equipment. The group is a painful money-spending machine. Every year, the work done by these people is barely equal, but it is basically unprofitable.If it weren't for Zhu Bin's extreme opposition, the Germans would not agree to the abolition, and the foreign devils would have taken them away long ago.

Now it's all over, the biggest burden has been dumped on Zhu Bin, who didn't expect Zhu Bin to turn them into an ocean-going fleet in the blink of an eye... Is this reliable?

Whether it will work or not, foreign devils are generally not optimistic about it, and they are even more amused by Zhu Bin's banner. To maintain world peace, rely on these rags?Just because you are a Chinese?Don't be kidding, let's find a way to get past this level!

There are different opinions, there is a turmoil at home and abroad, and many strange words come out one after another: "The country is still divided, and you are fighting with the Japanese. If you don't manage this top priority, what kind of world peace are you talking about? People fight and die. What the hell! I'm just full!"

In the past, Zhu Bin played the City of Light under the banner of a pacifist, but he thought it was a common trick used by warlords to play tricks on a group of smart but incomprehensible scientists.Now it's so serious and serious, it's too weird!

Zhu Bin didn't seem to hear those gloating voices at all. While announcing the news, he also made a request to the country where the bases are located and the colonial administrators: "Because of the current war and many other reasons, we sort out and gather The speed of personnel will be quite limited, so the base needs to be reserved for at least three to twelve months to fully evacuate. During this period, the relevant rent and the conditions of cooperation between the two parties will remain unchanged. Please forgive Yunyun."

Most of the more than a dozen bases and ports are in the colonies of the great powers, such as Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, Australia, and Africa, and they are basically not in the mainland of each country, except China.

Both are profitable partners.Such demands are not excessive at all, and the countries themselves have not taken them seriously, especially emphasizing that Zhu Bin's existing armed forces cannot enter or dock to avoid danger, and the rest can be withdrawn at any time.However, the rent must be paid as required, and all kinds of expenses shall be paid as required.The rules and conditions remain unchanged.

Zhu Bin smiled and agreed to pay their limited-time rent like a lion, like an old landlord who made money with anger.

Then, a large number of personnel were dispatched to integrate and receive this series of assets, domestic and foreign group powers were reintegrated, and all were incorporated into the gd group, which led to the sudden spread of the gd laboratory affiliates, which were mostly tossed in China, to the world .The number of personnel has increased several times.

Lao Jiang is happy!After reading the management and operation costs disclosed by the British and Americans, he decided that Zhu Bin had picked up a huge burden all of a sudden! If the overseas force of 10 people wants to maintain it, at least it has to use the armed forces of the South China Sea Fleet, and the gold-swallowing beast that can't get in will greatly involve Zhu Bin's energy and strength, and it will also put a lot of pressure on the country. Take it easy, Zhu Bin won't have time to deal with him before he clarifies those things.

Ri himself is also happy!WorldCom Group is a very direct nai ox.It provided Zhu Bin with countless overseas relationships, cooperative consortiums, and a lot of cash flow.And it provides the protection of its sea and air transportation lines, and the economic and political benefits it brings are immeasurable!

Now that the protective umbrella is gone, Zhu Bin is exposed to the outside world. His huge ocean-going fleet, not to mention safe transportation, will face countless risks just going out from the East China Sea!In the past, there were pirates everywhere, afraid of the joint forces of various powerful countries, but now there is only one Chinese who is separated by thousands of miles.Won't they get up and make a fuss?

Even if there is no trouble, those sanctimonious bastards of the great powers will secretly support some people to make trouble.Now that the two sides are starting to fight, they will do everything they can!I believe it won't be long before there will be incidents of robbing GD Group freighters and kidnapping their main personnel everywhere?

Even better.Without that big sign, the bare Zhu Bin Group's fleet, Japan could have attacked freely!Can't beat your powerful navy, but it's more than enough to deal with some cargo ships in the Pacific Ocean!

The cost of a 150-ton freighter is at least 200 million to 2 million US dollars, and it is even higher if it is more than [-] tons!The value of the goods transported each time is at least hundreds of thousands of dollars. As long as one ship is sunk, it is equivalent to losing half of the profit of a fleet.If they were killed in groups, they would lose tens of millions of dollars or more every time. No matter how big Zhu Bin's family was, how long could he survive?

Anyway, it's the vast ocean, no one knows who, the submarine did it secretly, what evidence do you have?

There was almost no discussion and discussion. The officers in the Japanese Navy who were eager to make meritorious service made such a decision so quickly that Yamamoto 56 had no time to object. In fact, he failed consecutively, and not many people listened to him.

The spin-off of WorldCom Group is just the beginning!The news that the big powers launched an economic siege and suppression on Zhu Bin flowed into Japan through various channels, which made the base camp and cabinet members rejoice!What they cannot do by themselves, the great powers are ready to help.Although I don't know how to directly use warships to help the battle, Zhu Bin, who is caught in the economic crisis, must have no successor. If he is besieged and bankrupt, then China's short-term prosperity and strength will immediately sink, and Japan, after passing this hurdle, will come again The ranks of the strongest countries in Asia!

In the final analysis, fighting a war is based on economic strength!Without money, see how you maintain hundreds of thousands of scientists and research institutions, see how you maintain millions of troops, and fleets like a bottomless pit!

The speed of standing in line in China is not slow at all. When the news spreads out, the back immediately becomes busy. Several major cities in Shanghai, Beiping and Nanjing are full of representatives running around in a hurry, whether it is to show their sincerity to the four major families or to guarantee their position to Zhu Bin. There are as many as crucian carp crossing the river, countless.

Most of these people didn't put all their eggs in one basket. After they signed the ticket for Zhu Bin, they turned around and went to pat Kong Xiangxi's chest to express their determination... Except for the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Consortium who betrayed them early in the morning, they all took this route , it is really ironic.

Zhu Bin was based in Shanghai and personally received hundreds of representatives from various parties for several days in a row, including Li Zongren, Yan Xishan, and secret envoys from the Northwest and Southwest military leaders. Take risks.There is everything.

Zhu Bin never refused to come. He patiently listened to what they had to say with a very open attitude, and then politely saw off the guests. He didn't express his opinion on whether what those people said was serious or not, and no one else could guess at will.

But for the unprecedented crisis coming from the top.Zhu Bin did not speak harsh words to the outside world about the aggressive powers of the great powers. Just when Yan Xishan couldn't bear it and came to talk about it, he replied firmly: "In the war against Japan, there is no other choice but to fight to the end! Baichuan If you can trust me, please continue to fight hand in hand, and any risk will be fully borne by Zhu!"

Although Yan Xishan is old and cunning.I have never been willing to take an absolute stand, but this time I finally took a stand.In his words, I have been a revolution all my life, and I always want to leave something to show off to my sons and daughters. This time I will never give up halfway!

Except for the teaching corps and the central yang army who received the order to suspend the attack, the battle against Japan by the northern giants not only did not stop, on the contrary, they advanced steadily from the original level.It suddenly became violent, and the number of bombers and fighter jets to assist in the battle increased by more than a thousand.The airspace of the eight Rehe and Liaoning battlefields was filled to the brim!

The Kwantung Army Command was not surprised but happy!Chief of Staff Neiji Okamura vowed: "Such an abnormally violent attack by the Chinese army just shows that their rear strength is weak and they cannot fight for a long time like before! As long as they can withstand this for a while, the Manchurian War will soon end, and even It can also be transferred to the overall counterattack of the empire!"

His judgment was not without reason.

In the past two months, China's first war zone has mobilized 70 million people from the two fronts.Divide into four or five waves and take turns to fight, launching a frantic attack on the [-]-kilometer-long defense line of the Great Wall in the south and the Recha border in the west.

The attack was not centered on the quick capture of major cities and strategic locations, nor did it mean a quick end to the war, but after the capture of a line of defense.Carry out a comprehensive search and annihilation battle on the spot, which is almost an inch-by-inch search of the entire Yanshan Mountains, starting from the Great Wall defense line and advancing all the way. After more than two months, the overall depth of the advance is only about [-] kilometers. Even the force from Gubeikou didn't kill Chaoyang.

This method requires hundreds of thousands of troops to act together every time. It is so slow to search thousands of mountains and rivers.The advantage is that where they walked, a Kwantung Army would not be able to stay, it was completely the same as a normal trip.

The Japanese army paid an astonishing price for the confrontation!In addition to the six permanent divisions of the Kwantung Army being basically disabled, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers transferred from North Korea and Taiwan lost at least 20!The strength of the dozen or so divisions that were supplemented also suffered losses to varying degrees, with an overall casualty of more than 30!

This number can still be afforded by Japan. At this time, there are 80 million local troops crowded in Manchuria and North Korea, and the number of North Korean soldiers mobilized for the second time is also about 30. After Taiwan was captured, there was no supplement, but The puppet Manchukuo forces with the security forces as the main body have once again recruited nearly 20 Manchurian soldiers, and the sum of all kinds is more than 100 million!

The troops in the first theater relied on ten times the firepower and superior forces to fight in turn. The casualties were less than one-fifth of the Japanese puppet army, but the ammunition consumption was more than ten times that. Heavy artillery shells and heavy bombs, advanced Fighters, even missiles, etc. are all put into battle for actual combat drills, which cost a lot of money!

The Kwantung Army Command is very troubled by this!If there is no accident, if the fight continues like this, in less than half a year, they will lose their strength, and they will lose Rehe and Liaoning inch by inch, and retreat to North Korea. Then decades of business will be ruined.The point is that the empire has no hope of landing, and no one can bear the consequences of the collapse!

Now, Zhu Bin had a big problem. They actually launched a strong attack. Obviously, they couldn't continue the original attack mode that cost a lot, which meant that the real turning point was coming!

Neiji Okamura's wise judgment spread to the base camp, which caused joy among the army!Hideki Tojo finally seized the opportunity to jump out, and yelled: "Never give the Chinese people any chance, attack with one body, and kill them resolutely!"

Forced into a corner, Japan finally has new hope!

Is that really the case?Zhu Bin was in Shanghai overlooking the prosperous scene of Shanghai, and sneered: "If you can predict Lao Tzu's actions, how can you mess around?"

November 11th, 27 o'clock in the evening Western European time, London, England.

At the same time, the sharp ringing of the telephone awakened the minds of the world's financial capital from their sleep. The mayor of London, the police chief, the palace steward and others received horrifying reports that Her Majesty's palace and the Tower of London, the castle, were attacked by unknown people. The violent attack and intrusion of the thugs has caused an unknown amount of damage at this time, and a large number of rare treasures have been robbed!

Before they could go out, the British Museum followed up with a police report. The same group of thugs suddenly appeared, broke into the world's highest-level cultural relics collection and looted wantonly, and the guards were attacked by their powerful firepower. , heavy casualties!

"They must be crazy!" the police chief murmured with a pale face, and rushed to the scene by car, and suddenly found that around the Tower of London, there were at least a thousand police officers, soldiers and security personnel gathered. Without exception, there is nothing to do about the gate and the several big holes that were blown out forcibly. Inside, deadly bullets are constantly spewing out, and grenades are thrown out from time to time. Armament experts have judged that they are all German standard weapons. !

"Ah! Damn Germans, are they ready to officially go to war with England?"

Mr. Director, the mayor who arrived later, and the queen's envoy gathered together to wait for the arrival of the troops. They racked their brains to formulate an action plan to catch these daring guys, but it was completely unexpected that it was just below the city, as deep as 50 meters. Under the ground, there is a big guy with a length of more than [-] meters quickly digging towards the Bank of England's underground vault on Threadneed Street!

There, more than half of the gold in the entire UK is stored, with a total of [-] tons! (To be continued.)
