Out of the cage

The president of the Shenzhou Military Department is looking at the map of the Eastern Ocean. Wei Keng on Kunlun Mountain is examining the barriers to regional exchanges on World Island.

Now the northwestern part of Shenzhou is Su Xiong. Whether it is military or economic, we should carefully consider maintaining a long-term and stable relationship with it.

What Wei Keng held in his hand was a plan for the Northwest Mutual Market. Wei Keng also sent this mutual market plan to the president of the military department, and at the same time sent him the rampant military smuggling project in the Western Regions.

In the Qin Tongli 2211, after August

Since the two met in the Kunlun Base, they have maintained personal communication since then. The relationship between the two parties is not friends, not monarchs and ministers. On the surface, they are superiors and subordinates, but in fact it is like playing "confidantes".

The president clearly knew that Wei Keng's weight in Western China was getting heavier and heavier. Steel, machinery, and energy have been growing explosively over the years under the deployment of the Western Economic Union. These are all indicators of strength related to war potential. This increase in power has made Western China more and more rebellious in the face of traditional economic regions. But he knew that as long as Wei Keng was in charge, there would be no troubles in the west of Shenzhou.

Wei Keng only maintained 50,000 troops on the plateau, neither increased nor decreased, and his focus was still on sorting out business wealth and people's strategy. In the mind of the president, this is still a traditional scholar-bureaucrat.

It is very rare to have a big official who has Wei Keng's strength but keeps his integrity to Shenjing. If he were replaced by someone else, he would have committed the Anlu Rebellion long ago!

And now Wei Keng is essentially suppressing other careerists in the central and western parts of China.

For example, in the Western Regions, those general soldiers in Mobei and even Shunan have special skills.

This situation is worst in the Western Regions! These general soldiers who were defeated last time, after getting the base vehicle from Shenjing, recruited private soldiers wantonly. Such ambitions, if Shenjing didn't know it, they would sing and dance, but now the president knew it, and he was in a cold sweat. Come on, good guy, this is the real separatism.

The plan Wei Keng offered was that instead of allowing smuggling, it is better to carry out border trade thoroughly, and the customs and taxes should be returned to the court, so as to cut off the wanton actions of these military chiefs in the Western Regions.

Wei Keng's advice to the president: "There are only three strategies in the west of Shenzhou, the army is stable, the economy is prosperous, and the people are stable. Among them, the military is stable. As the center of the country, Shenjing must firmly control the army."

In other words, Wei Keng supported Shenjingling Dajiangye. Therefore, no matter how much Wei Keng's other ideas differ from those of the court elders, based on this, the president feels that Wei Keng is the mainstay of the country at this stage.

...

Wei Keng didn't want to overthrow Shenzhou, he just felt that Shenzhou couldn't be left to some people. The current West China War has changed, mainly because of Su Xiong's side.

This powerful land power country now maintains an army of one million in the northern part of China, as if it is about to explode.

But Wei Keng saw the root cause. This was not a matter of war, but a matter of mutual trust.

On the European continent, all the population and residence of the Ross people are all close to the west, and every step of expansion will only further intensify the friction with the ethnic groups in Central Europe.

And in the east, across the vast Gobi desert and permafrost, as long as one battle proves that it is difficult for them to gain a foothold in the east, they cannot be as relaxed and happy as the Spaniards conquered the Inca. They were thinking not of invasion but of defense against Eastern influence.

In fact, Su Xiong desperately needs to communicate with Dongfang, and this kind of communication needs should be sparse and not blocked.

In other words, this matter also has something to do with Wei Keng. After the Battle of Talas, Wei Keng managed the economy very well.

As a result, Su Xiong won a military victory in the area, but suffered a crushing defeat in other areas. Several large-scale economic reforms to the region failed entirely. Under the underworld reports of the European media with ulterior motives, it became very disturbing.

According to Wei Keng's information, since the Battle of Talas, the effectiveness of Soviet Russia's governance in the region~~~ Really?

Large farms have turned into deserts, and the development of industry has drained a lot of fresh water from rivers, drying up the Aral Sea and turning it into a saline-alkali land. direct black storm in autumn

Good guy, after spending so much oil and cadres, it can't be managed locally, so that the natives in the area feel that it is better to be superstitious.

...

Youdao is the lack of mobilization of the local people in the equatorial area, so "there is no strong country in the equatorial area". But high-latitude regions are at the other extreme, "everything is waiting to be mobilized."

The Rus is a representative, a nation waiting to be mobilized.

In history, starting from Peter the Great of Tsarist Russia, when the Tsarist Russian emperor proved that he could win the battle, Mao Zi unconditionally accepted the mobilization of strongmen. This was especially true in the era of the Iron Man in Soviet Russia, where a strong heavy industry was quickly mobilized and built.

But here is the problem, they don't know what to do when they are in a small group. As a result, the large frame system is very grand, and the small structures (light industry and agricultural and sideline industries) are very rough in various technologies. (This is the opposite of Sunrise).

Tracing back to the history and using Europe as a reference, after the petty bourgeoisie gained power, they developed excellent management capabilities in the small structures of the middle and lower classes. There is careful investment in business, science and technology. Only in this way can technology and system progress.

But what about the bear? Some nomads, the upper and lower structures are two layers of gray cattle and upper nobles, a simple structure.

"How can small middle- and lower-level enterprises manage spontaneously!" It can only rely on importing technology from Europe to upgrade production. Even after the guns fired in October, it still hasn't changed the situation of the backwardness of basic humanities.

Even some people who have thoroughly studied Soviet Russia in the main world feel that Soviet Russia, which dominated the Cold War, is theoretically not considered an industrial country compared with rabbits with weaker industrial output in the same period?

Industrial countries must have the ability to self-technological replacement and upward development.

Although Rabbit is behind, many fields are the first generation of indigenous law experts, but they also researched thoroughly by themselves, and then opened Sharingan to do it themselves. But Soviet Russia is too rich in resources, and the production line of automobiles for civilian use is too troublesome to buy directly from Germany.

As a result, the industrial chain introduced by rabbits in the 20th century found that the technology of Soviet Russia 20 years ago was the technology of Germany 40 years ago.

...

Of course, this problem is not a system or a gene at all. Instead, one side supports the other side.

Winters in high latitudes are terrible. This has led to the fact that people living here have to hide in their rooms like bears throughout the long winter. So local and customary: don't be idle for a long time of the year. If you go out to find something, you are looking for death.

The long winter endowed Russian scholars with talent and enough time for thinking and artistic creation.

The whole of Russia is rich in great writers and artists. And it contains thoughts like flames. As for the Slavs in the lower classes of society, they have no educational resources, and the long winter has endowed them with perseverance.

Relatively speaking, due to the strong partition effect of the north-south transverse mountains on the climate, China has four distinct seasons. The life of the agricultural class was not as monotonous as that of the Slavs. For most of the year, you can do a lot of things.

As early as before the industrial revolution, the rural areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the east were like this: old people raised chickens and ducks, children raised their own cows, women wove cloth, and sold eggs and cloth at the market when the farmers were slack. .

These things are "down to earth" in East Asia. Russian observers used this sentence to describe the market in rural towns in East Asia: 'This is a kind of vitality that can be seen with the eyes. '

Similar to the small bourgeoisie in the European city-states, Shenzhou is linked by the villages and can also form township family businesses, so there is no shortage of light industrial products.

Especially after Wei Keng completed the Internet revolution in western China, a large number of small rural enterprises started a large number of agricultural and sideline products and electronic industries based on the advantages of local raw materials. With the continuous construction of roads and power supply by Western Meridian Union. The entire Western Region has also obtained a large number of products.

Why did Wei Keng know that those warriors from the Western Regions were smuggling!

A small beacon checkpoint, Er Di Niang, orders dozens of boxes of Erguotou and several tons of hot pot bottom ingredients every month. Is it a skewer every day? Or take a bath?

...

Wei Keng's eyes were fixed on the North Asia region, and he was not allowed to use weapons without necessary and certain factors of victory. Therefore, instead of letting the Chinese military force engage in an unknown friction in the center of this world island. It's better to solve it in a more gentle way.

Light industrial products are exchanged for agricultural products and raw materials. As for Soviet Russia's heavy industry? The dual barrels of the Apocalypse tank and the alliance super-heavy tank should be used against Europe.

In this kind of trade, Soviet Russia will definitely understand the meaning of China and use it at the same time.

Wei Keng understands: the shrewd Maozi will think about defeating Oulu and then kill the carbine, but let's wait until they can defeat Oulu.

In the 2212 year of Qin Tongli, the Shenzhou side has already started to act.

First of all, Shenjing appointed personnel from Western Economic Union to conduct business communication with Soviet Russia and discuss the possibility of mutual markets.

The Ministry of Military Affairs sent people to various armies in the Western Regions to investigate. A total of seven general army groups conducted drills on the Mobei training ground. After confirming the readiness of the military equipment, they began to arrange for people to leave the army and transfer to the border business department established by the Western Economic Union.

The Ministry of Household Affairs of Shenzhou also dispatched personnel to accept the management of the border mutual market.

...

In the business talks, the people in the Kremlin were quite interested. After meeting the economic and trade officials sent by the Western Economic Association, Chadanke of the Inter-Economic Association grinned brightly. Escalate meetings to talks immediately. The two sides quickly signed the relevant agreement, in the gorgeous Russian palace, illuminated by the flashes on various cameras.

Both claim: a model of peace.

However, newspapers in continental Europe, such as Le Soir de France, took a very skeptical tone, believing the sustainability, authenticity, and effectiveness of this economic cooperation.

The German side even believes that this is just a pre-war cover-up. The reason is that the Shenzhou side has added seven army groups in the west, and there has been a large-scale investment in road facilities.

However, in response to such weirdness, Moscow and Shenjing also agreed to hold regular peace exercises in North Asia to increase strategic mutual trust.

The cabinet headed by the Donglin faction did not set up many obstacles to Shenzhou's series of strategies.

Because the shortage of national funds has been very serious after entering the cabinet, if the military affairs in the northwest can be saved a little, the pressure of warship competition in the east can be burned even more.

...

After signing the peace agreement. The construction of new roads in the Shenzhou border has begun. The first reaction of General Mothven of the Siberian Electromagnetic Fortress after receiving the news was that China wanted to attack.

When he came to the scene with a group of Soviet troops with big brim hats and confirmed that they were excavators and transport vehicles, he lowered his vigilance.

The speed of basic road construction in China has really exceeded the imagination of the Soviet Union. Their workers' clubs have not taken any action yet, and they are already planning roads here. In the eyes of the Soviet commander: the most important thing is that in the convenience station, you can buy beer at will, and according to the needs of the border, two payment methods, rubles and Shenzhou coins, have been set up.

After opening a can of soda cans, these Soviet generals visited the construction site and returned with a few contracts.

There are several very good pastures in Mo Siwen's defense area. The relatives of the boss on the construction site in Shenzhou happen to be in the meat business and are willing to provide breeding equipment. There is also an early loan, as long as the Soviet army is willing to give the green light. There's nothing wrong with raising cattle.

Cattle can be sold, and so can minerals.

In the 2214 year of the Qin Dynasty, Wei Keng saw the data of the mutual market between the two sides, and was a little bit sure that the torrent of steel near Shenzhou should not be overwhelmed. But preparations for war still need to be prepared. The greater the interests, the more you have the sword in your hand to stabilize the main interests.

...

In the Yanbei area, the construction of floating warships has started again, and this time it is based on the previous experience.

Build three ships at once. In the three empty shipyards with a length of 500 meters and a width of 200 meters, hundreds of robots started to move.

The Ministry of War of Shenzhou intends to develop a space combat system. Units deployed directly from the sky, such as Xihe Shengguang and Skyfire Defense Tower, need certain floating battleships.

In this regard, the Fenghou Group can guarantee that it can be completed, but the Ministry of War reciprocates, agrees with the plan provided by the Luoshui Group, and releases the order. The angry Bai Jingqi called three times a day, reprimanding Wei Keng for being immoral.

On August 7th, in the most summer day.

Wei Keng stayed in the aviation base, looking at the "Xihe Shenguang" system. Well, this is the top system designed by the space technicians from China. A solar reflector is deployed in orbit in outer space.

Since the altitude is high enough, it is not blocked by the shadow of the earth most of the time, and it can theoretically carry out all-weather strikes. The reflective umbrella uses a large number of memory metals, and the umbrella cover can be opened and closed quickly, which is relatively safe in space orbit.

After unfolding, the sunlight is focused to one point, and then through the meson light wave conversion effect, it is focused into light waves that are not easy to scatter, and sweeps the earth.

The strike effect of this weapon has been verified in Mobei. Six beams of light descended from the sky in a parallel straight line, sweeping across the three kilometers of land, and there was a scorched black glass scar on the ground along the way.

Of course, Wei Keng took a closer look. This kind of killing like burning glass looked very scary.

Six charred spots twenty meters wide and three kilometers long burned out. Moreover, the sense of sacredness that fell from the sky may seriously shock those enemies who "believe in God in their hearts", but in essence, the focus time of this thing is too short, and it can only cause damage to light infantry targets. The metal layer of large heavy armor units Still resistant to it.

Wei Keng: "In my opinion, oil-gas combustion bombs are better than this."

This sentence is for the system: In this world, Wei Keng still has a basic task to collect the world's technology system. Although some technologies don't make much sense now.

System: "Sergeant Wei Keng, this is about your grading. No matter what historical ideas you have in this world, homework still has to be handed in."
