Republic of China game

Luo Yaoguo's expression changed slightly as if he was being told by Demon Xi. He glanced at the other party and sighed softly: "Mr. Hitler, I think you also know that the crown left behind by the old empire in this battle Neither China nor Germany is particularly hopeful of becoming the final victor in the competition. In contrast, the United States and the Soviet Union have greater hopes of success. In fact, the two defenders of the old order, the British Empire and the French Empire, have completely Corrupted, Germany alone could destroy them in the last World War, only the intervention of the United States... and now the Soviet Union is also undergoing ambitious heavy industry construction. Enemy!"

"Fortunately, we still have time. Now our two countries still have a little time to grow stronger. And there should be a place for the United States in the new empire in the future. I don't think we need to provoke this behemoth, right? The British Empire and the French Empire There is enough legacy." There was no trace of madness in Hitler's eyes, but full of reason and wisdom, and he smiled slightly:

"The Soviet Union is the real opponent in the next world war. After defeating Britain and France, as long as we jointly defeat the Soviet Union, the future world will be divided among the three giants of Germany, China, and the United States. Germany will take the entire Western world. China can get the East, which was originally your traditional territory, but now it is just returned to the original owner. The United States can dominate the New World, and they can continue to live a decadent and luxurious life in that rich land. Why did they come to participate in this cruel war? What about the war?"

Luo Yaoguo gently turned the coffee cup in his hand, thinking about Hitler's words in his mind.The devil's method... seems to be completely feasible.Defeat Britain and France first, then avoid war with the US and focus on defeating the USSR.As long as the Soviet Union is over, the United States can no longer threaten the old world, so let's rule their America with peace of mind!And let the Germans lead the territories including Europe, Africa, and West Asia, er, so at least there will be no European debt crisis, right?China, on the other hand, can get the rest, at least most of the territory in the east, and no longer has to worry about too much population.And as a "ruling nation", there is no need to earn a little money in sweatshops day and night, and there should be no "high housing prices", right?

"Phew!" Luo Yao let out a long breath, looked up at Hitler, and said solemnly: "Mr. Hitler, I know that your plan is completely feasible and will bring prosperity and prosperity to Germany. It's just... There will be many difficulties in implementing this method, especially the tenacity of the Soviet Union may exceed everyone's imagination. In addition, the United States will never stand idly by, and their domestic politics may not allow American leaders to go to war casually , but it does not rule out that unexpected situations will happen. Finally, it is the preparations to win the war. I hope you can use your influence in the German military and political circles to fully promote this work. I think the opportunities are all It is reserved for those who are prepared, the more fully prepared we are now, the greater our chances of winning in the future.”

At first glance, these remarks seem to indicate that China is preparing to join Germany's chariot, but they may actually be worthless promises.How credible are the promises of politicians?In short, among the several industrialized countries at present, Britain, France, the United States, Germany, the Soviet Union, Japan, Italy... are likely to help China build heavy industry, and the only one that can do the best and at the lowest cost is Germany.What's the point of making empty promises that may not always be fulfilled?Besides, if Germany really beat Britain and France to the ground one day, Luo Yaoguo would not mind taking their colonies.As for the Soviet Union, it depends on the situation. Perhaps in this time and space, China-Germany heavy industry and military cooperation are developing well, and Germany is stronger than before, and it will kill the Soviet Union in one fell swoop.Isn't the Far East, Siberia and Central Asia the land of no man?It is only natural for China to get them.

Standing on the balcony of Krupp's house, watching Hitler's leaving back, Luo Yaoguo sighed softly.In today's meeting with Hitler, both of them deliberately avoided Japan, a powerful country standing in the way of China becoming the hegemon of the East.When the British and French empires collapse, will the war between China and Japan be decided?If it is still inextricably linked, what power does China have to seize the heritage of Britain and France?Should we put aside the Sino-Japanese war and focus on "struggling for heritage" like Japan did in World War II?

Chapter 0286 How far can Hitler go (seven)

In the lobby on the first floor of the Krupp Villa, Luo Yaoguo, An Sihua, Lu Ming, and those German militarists were sitting down as guests and hosts, and several cups of steaming, fragrant coffee were brought up by the servants.

Those who can sit in this room are all top figures in Germany. They are well aware of the current world situation and the embarrassing position of Germany.

Now the glory of the British Empire is left with only the last afterglow.This empire was practically defeated by Germany in the last world war.It just barely survived due to the intervention of the United States, and has lingered until now.Although on the surface, the British Empire is still holding the airs of the world's hegemony, but in fact this riddled empire is sinking all the time, and everyone knows that the final collapse of this empire is not far away.Now the emerging powers in this world are probably already keeping their eyes on the incomparably rich heritage of the British Empire, right?In fact, Germany is undoubtedly the first country to join this battle for inheritance, but it is a bit too early.As a result, this villain is firmly bound by the damned "Treaty of Versailles".

But now... the British Empire really seems to be dying, as long as there is a powerful challenger to strike the final blow, then everyone can prepare their knives, forks and plates to eat this feast of dividing the world!So now these German militarists are so anxious!If you don't smash the "Treaty of Versailles" quickly, you will miss the feast of dividing the world.

At this time, Luo Yaoguo's mind was constantly pondering the changes in the world situation before and after World War II, trying to find an opportunity at 01:30, so as to fight a real turnaround for his country.For this reason, he is already preparing to cooperate with these devils in front of him, and he doesn't know if there will be any good rewards in the end?

To be honest, the deck of cards in Luo Yaoguo's hand was worse than Hitler's.First of all, China is not yet a unified country, and there is no way to unify in the short term.Although the Kuomintang has certain advantages in the military, it is not enough to overwhelm the various forces in the north, especially because they have a strong backing behind them.

Secondly, China's social conflicts can't find a way out now. The Kuomintang has neither the ability nor the financial resources to extend its rule to the lowest level, which will mean hiring millions of civil servants and party officials.The Nationalist government simply does not have the financial resources to pay their salaries, let alone the Kuomintang to pay salaries for millions of party workers.Therefore, the Kuomintang without grassroots political power is also unable to solve the land problem in rural China, and the rapid growth of industry has continuously created the proletariat.Those ... are said to be bourgeois gravediggers!

In the end, China's heavy industry foundation is too weak, and it is almost necessary to start from scratch and build from scratch!In order to build a complete heavy industry system in just ten years, it is best to give China a leading edge in some key areas.Only in this way will it be possible for China to participate in the feast of carve up the world in a non-unified situation, and then use the shared benefits to divert domestic conflicts...

"Dear gentlemen, let's have an open and honest talk." Luo Yaoguo put down the small coffee cup in his hand, smiled, and spoke fluent English: "For countries like China and Germany, time is extremely precious. It is no longer allowed to waste in meaningless mutual testing. Let me talk about our requirements first. We want Germany to help us build a complete system of heavy industry and military industry. It is close to Japan in terms of military industry other than military industry. For this reason...we are ready to provide all possible help for the rearmament and rise of Germany, as long as you can think of it, and we can provide it, we can agree."

The German guys looked at each other, but still couldn't see any change in expression.I don't know what is going on in their hearts.This time speaking on behalf of the German side was an old German soldier sitting on the sofa in the middle of the hall. His military rank was general.His body is straight, his old face is sullen and he is pretending to be bloody, and he wears a presbyopic glasses on his right eye, which is the kind of glasses with one lens. The eyes hidden behind the lens are sharp and gloomy.

"I am the infantry general, commander of the Imperial Army Command, von Zeckert." It turned out that he was the famous Zeckert, and the old general could speak fluent English.He nodded and said: "We can consider your request. With the scientific technology and heavy industry strength of the German Empire, it is absolutely no problem for you to approach Japan's level within ten years."

This statement... is not bragging.In fact, Germany's technological capabilities before World War II were indeed leading, and should be more advanced than the United States.And Japan is just a small latecomer power, and it has just started not long ago, and it is not very advanced yet.In history, Japan spent huge sums of money to import a batch of technical equipment from Germany in order to build Yamato-class warships. It can be seen that Germany is not weak in shipbuilding technology, but it has no experience in building aircraft carriers.

Von Zeckert glanced at Luo Yaoguo with some complacency, as if he wanted to see the ecstatic expression on his face.What I saw was also a dead face without joy or anger.The somewhat disappointed old general raised his chin coldly and reservedly: "But the empire will not give you help in vain. Just like you said, the rise and rearmament of Germany also needs China's full assistance.

First, the German Empire needs China's rich reserves of non-ferrous metals, which will be used to pay part of the cost of the machinery and technology you have acquired, and the prices will be according to the standards of the international market.And you also need to extract these metals according to our requirements, and we will provide the technology and equipment.Because only in this way can these things be quietly transported into Germany.

Second, we both want to jointly establish an aircraft manufacturing plant, including a research and development and testing center with a large wind tunnel.This aircraft factory will be responsible for developing and manufacturing the latest military aircraft in the future. All research and development expenses must be shared by both of us. Of course, technologies can also be shared, but you cannot disclose these technologies to third parties.

Third, our two parties jointly established a shipyard to build submarines and other military ships.Similarly, this shipyard will also be responsible for the research and development of new military ships. All research and development funds must be shared by both parties, and technology can also be shared, and you cannot disclose technology to third parties.

Fourth, we jointly set up a tank manufacturing factory, including a large test range and shooting range...and you must also form an armored force with our help to test the performance of the tank.

Fifth, all research and development projects including aircraft, submarines, ships, and tanks must be under the overall responsibility of German personnel.

Sixth, the training of the Chinese Nationalist Government's navy, air force, armored force and the training of officers of these forces must be attended by German military advisers.In addition, German officers and sergeants must also participate in the training of these units and the training of the military academy to help the German Wehrmacht reserve corresponding talents.

Seventh, the German Wehrmacht has the right to purchase half of the naval ships, including submarines, produced by Sino-German joint shipyards at cost prices when needed.The Sino-German joint venture aircraft factory must also accept secret orders from the Wehrmacht when the German Wehrmacht needs it.This condition will automatically be voided after Germany has completed its rearmament.

Eighth, we will set up a joint expert committee to be responsible for the implementation of the above clauses and help China establish a sound heavy industry system.

The above eight items are the requirements of the German Empire. As long as you agree, we can sign a cooperation treaty immediately.I believe that as long as we can work together, the future world will have a reasonable place for our two countries. "

Non-ferrous metal resources are used to pay for Germany's machinery, equipment and technical services. The two sides jointly develop advanced weapons such as aircraft, submarines, ships, and tanks. The National Government is responsible for half of the funds and reserves talents for the German Wehrmacht in the navy, air force, and armored forces. , and finally provide them with enough ships and aircraft to protect themselves before Germany rearmaments.This is the price the Nationalist government has to pay for its heavy industry system... These prices are not heavy compared to the "Korean War" in another time and space.

Luo Yaoguo breathed a sigh of relief, and finally couldn't help showing a bright smile on his face: "We agree to all the conditions you put forward, but... there is one small request. We need some aircraft and ships that can adapt to the Chinese battlefield , so I hope to be able to put forward corresponding requirements for the research and development of aircraft and ships."

"Yes." Without thinking too much, Feng Zeckert agreed to Luo Yaoguo's request. His decision may have unexpected effects in the future...

……

This trip to Germany was finally a success!

On the way to Berlin to meet President Hindenburg, Luo Yaoguo always had a satisfied smile on his face.Until now, the construction of heavy industry in southern China has really been on track.A copy of "Secret Treaty between China and Germany" still smelling like ink is now lying in Luo Yaoguo's purse.Comprehensive military and industrial cooperation between China and Germany has already started from now on.

Lu Ming has now officially become the chief representative of the Chinese side of the Sino-German Heavy Industry Cooperation Expert Committee. He will be responsible for importing heavy industry technology from Germany with experts from both sides. These projects will include special steel and steel plates of China Iron and Steel, and [-]-ton hydraulic presses in the future.A large-scale coal liquefaction base in Qujing, Yunnan (equipment will be transshipped by the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway), a Sino-German joint venture for aircraft, submarines, and tank factories.Aluminum smelters in Guangxi, copper smelters in Jiangxi, mines and smelters of important non-ferrous metals such as tin, manganese, tungsten, molybdenum, zinc, and magnesium.There are also a series of cooperative or joint venture industrial enterprises in electronics, optics, wood processing, chemical fertilizers, machinery, etc...

Volume [-] Central Plains War

Chapter 0287 true and false uprising (a)

Suihua County is located in the south-central part of Heilongjiang Province, in the Hulan River Basin of the Songnen Plain, more than [-] kilometers away from Harbin.The famous Middle East Railway passes about seven kilometers west of the county seat.During this period of time, many high-quality mansions on both sides of the Middle East Road were bought by rich people from the Guanzhong, and there were also many poor men who came to live in hardships, and it was said that they were going to work as coolies in the Soviet Union.But these guys are also very honest, they close the door of the house tightly every day, stay in the house without going out to meet people, they are really poor as coolies.Fortunately, this will neither disturb the people nor cause trouble for the county yamen. Besides, this Heilongjiang province is originally a province where immigrants gather. Didn't the big guys come here from their hometown in Guannei in the same way?Even now, ordinary people who can't survive in the pass are still pouring in to the northeast, so no one in Suihua County takes them seriously.

Outside Xinxingtun, which is less than 300 meters away from the Middle East Railway, a few foreigners came this day, pulling camels, looking like businessmen who had been away for a long time.At first he was a man with a Chinese face, but his face was still fair and clean, his expression was a bit sleepy, but his eyes were piercing.The few men behind him all looked quite capable, but they just followed him closely.

Xinxingtun is a small village with dozens of households, and now it is the scene of the busy autumn harvest, and the men and women in the village have all gone to work in the fields early in the morning.The big house in the village where many poor men who just came to the Northeast live, it is rare to open the front door today.The gate was full of gentle young people in long gowns, including a young woman in a green cloth cheongsam.All of them stretched their necks and looked at the main road at Tunzikou, as if they were waiting for anyone to arrive.

The man with the Chinese character face laughed, and waved at the people standing at the gate of the house: "I encountered some problems on the road, and it was delayed for a while, so I will let you wait for a long time."

This man with a Chinese face is none other than Comrade Zhang Guotao, the new Secretary of the Northeast Bureau of the Communist Party of China and political commissar of the Third Front Army of the Red Army (well, he is still a comrade).During this period of time, for the cause of the party, he ran between the white mountains and the black waters regardless of personal safety, which can be said to be loyal and diligent.The few entourages who followed him were all selected from the original red four-sided guard force. Among them were Xu Haidong and Xu Shiyou, the famous tiger generals of the Northeast Red Army in the future.This time Zhang Guotao went to Harbin to meet Comrade Ye Musharov, director of the Middle East Railway Administration.On the road, I met a group of horse bandits who blocked the road and robbed them. Fortunately, the two tiger generals were brave, otherwise... Zhang Guotao really became a great martyr and could be immortalized forever.

And this inconspicuous little village on the side of the road in the Middle East is the location of the secret headquarters of the Suihua Uprising in Northeast China.Most of the people who stood at the door to greet Zhang Guotao and his party were leaders of the Northeast Bureau and the Red Third Front Army under preparation.Such as Xu Xiangqian, Zeng Zesheng, Liu Shiqi, Wang Pingzhang... There is also a female revolutionary who was brought from Sichuan by Zhang Guotao, Li Shuning. In the future, she will have a famous name in the Northeast——Zhao Yiman.

In Xinxingtun, there are small households with small gates, and all the gates are closed tightly.It is rare to see idle people walking around in Zhuangzi.It was the busy autumn harvest season, and the peasants were busy harvesting the fruits of a year's labor in the farmland outside the village.The only house of a wealthy family in the small village was bought by a wealthy man named Wan Yanhao, the manager of the Northeast Branch of the Pacific Trading Company, some time ago.Now it is used as the headquarters of the Suihua Uprising in Northeast China, and Zhang Guotao and others also live here.As soon as a few people entered the yard, the thick gate was locked immediately.The small village became deserted again, and it seemed that there were no ghosts in sight.

In the main hall of the large courtyard, all the people from the uprising headquarters were seated separately, and several cups of steaming fragrant tea had been brought in by Li Shuning.

The day of the Northeast Uprising was approaching day by day, and the atmosphere in the uprising headquarters gradually became tense.In the past two years, the CCP launched several worker-peasant riots in North China, but the final results were not ideal.

It may be that those uprisings did not involve regular troops, or it may be that the location of the uprising was chosen too close to the center of the enemy's domination.Often, as soon as a single spark is ignited here, a large number of Fengjun surges in over there.According to the instructions of the central government, the uprising troops aimed to seize the enemy's central city, and blindly fought against the superior enemy. The result is naturally self-evident.Although in this time and space, the Central Red Army in Suiyuan and northern Shaanxi is very powerful, it doesn't mean that you can just find a few poor and lower-middle peasants and hold the red flag to be an invincible Red Army.

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China seems to have learned some lessons from the Suihua Uprising in Northeast China.A group of backbones with excellent political and military qualities were specially selected from the Central Red Army, and they sneaked into the vicinity of Suihua secretly through Outer Mongolia and the Soviet Union through the Middle East Road.At the same time, the Kuomintang also provided a large number of weapons, ammunition and supplies as agreed, and they were also transported to the warehouse of Suihua Railway Station under the jurisdiction of the Middle East Road Administration.Preparations are more complete than any previous uprising.In addition, after the victory of the uprising, the newly established Red Third Front Army was not required to attack Harbin immediately. Instead, it first transferred its forces to Yichun County in the Xiaoxinganling area for the winter, and at the same time used the winter to strengthen training, and then launched the Harbin campaign after the beginning of spring next year. Redden the entire North Manchuria.This plan... seems to be more reliable, right?

Zhang Guotao still frowned tightly at this moment, sitting on the chair in the middle of the hall without saying a word.Holding a tea bowl in his hand, he drank tea in one sip.In the past, when Zhang Guotao was a member of the Central Bureau and made uprising plans for others, he never knew to be afraid.Now...it's my turn to start an uprising.To be honest, his heart was in a state of panic right now, but he was still pretending to be calm.

……

A dusty cart rumbled across the desolate path in the mountains and slowly moved towards the depths of the mountains.Surrounding the cart was a group of guards on tall horses with quick grabs on their shoulders.There were two people sitting side by side on the front of the car, both of them were wrapped in Linluo silk and satin, and they were dressed as rich merchants.One of them has a bushy beard, a very tall figure, and the murderous look in his brows that can only be cultivated in the army for a long time. It is Luo Yaoguo's sworn brother Wang Zhongyi.

The other is a little boy with parted hair, always with a somewhat cynical smile on his face, and a pair of eyes that are somewhat lively.His public identity is the manager of the Northeast Branch of the Pacific Trading Company, but his actual identity is Wan Yanhao, the head of the Northeast Station of the Kuomintang Military Intelligence Bureau.Since entering the spy industry at the beginning of last year, Wan Yanhao's official career has been prosperous, and he has been promoted rapidly all the way. Now he is a colonel and station master, and he can be regarded as a leader among his classmates in the first phase of Whampoa.

"Yi Gong (Wang Zhongyi), this time we have already agreed with the left director of the Fengjun Investigation Bureau. The regiment in Mohe County has been ordered to transfer to Heihe City. What is left there now is just a security team with no combat effectiveness. , when the time comes, you have to be merciful, disarm them and take them in, don’t come here to suppress counter-revolutionaries!”

Wan Yanhao smiled slightly, with a little joke in his words.Although he respectfully called him "Yigong", I'm afraid he didn't take it seriously in his heart, did he?

Wang Zhongyi glanced at Wan Yanhao who was beside him, and also smiled: "Cooperating with our uprising this time is just a show. Wen Qiang (Wan Yanhao), did they arrange the uprising of the Communist Party in the same way?"

Wan Yanhao smiled and shook his head: "Their situation is different from ours. We just settled down in the most remote corner of the Northeast, in order to deal with Japan's ambitions in the future. And they... are really It's a wishful thinking to make the whole of Northeast China red. I'm afraid a battle between dragons and tigers is inevitable."

Chapter 0288 true and false uprising (two)

I don't know how long it took before I heard Zhang Guotao put down the tea bowl in his hand and said with a smile: "Comrades, I want to tell you a piece of good news. Comrade Ye Musharov, director of the Middle East Railway Administration, has agreed to suspend the entire line when the Suihua Uprising starts. The Middle East Railway is running to prevent the mobilization faction of the Feng faction from mobilizing reinforcements through the railway. In this way, our uprising troops only need to eliminate the security forces in Suihua City to control the entire county and then launch an agrarian revolution.”
