When I went out, I was sweating profusely in the cold winter.

Yang Qiu already hated this slow intercontinental journey. The most he wanted to get a C47, or not, he could do it, at least he didn't have to waste time in the train car every day.

After returning to Nanjing, he first explained to Li Yuanhong and Tang Shaoyi about the problems encountered during his visits and inspections, and then went to the Ministry of National Defense and the Development and Reform Commission to deal with the backlog of work. After the Western Front came to an end, the Ministry of National Defense's work moved to the training of 15 new infantry divisions in the East Front and the Navy continued to focus on the large Anhai-class cruiser that was about to return to China at the end of the year. On the contrary, the air force has been continuously transporting cadets to the Western Front for several months, and the number has increased from the earliest 60 to more than 500 pilots. Although Yang Qiu felt it was a pity that he worked hard to train pilots to go to the cruel Western Front sky, because the death rate of fighter pilots was very high these days, but after formally manufacturing silk parachutes in large quantities at the beginning of the year, he also gritted his teeth and agreed to the plan. After all, it is impossible for a new military branch to be born to be brilliant and not bleeding.

The National Development and Reform Commission has a lot of work. The snow disaster in winter caused floods, and the Yellow River and Yangtze River had dam breaking incidents and suffered as many as one million refugees. The grain harvest was a foregone conclusion in the first half of the year, so Cai Gongshi was actively cooperating with the Prime Minister's Office to carry out disaster relief and post-disaster reconstruction. Aside from agriculture, other developments continue to be positive. Driven by the 5 billion yuan loan, infrastructure construction such as steel, heavy industry, light industry, railways, electricity and communications have developed rapidly. Most of the Southwest Railway Network, which began to be built in 1912, has been completed. It is expected that all the main lines will be opened to traffic by the end of 2018, and the double-track will be opened to traffic by 20, becoming the first national-level railway to be completed.

Net. The total laying mileage of national telephone and telegraph line construction started at the beginning of last year has reached 11,000 kilometers. If it weren’t for the insufficient supply of American telephone lines in the European war, several domestic private telephone line factories were in the bud and the production was insufficient. The figures would probably have been several times larger. The economy still maintained a high growth. The tobacco, leather and other industries took the opportunity to enter the European market and the light industry was still booming. European orders and US OEM orders were still the main force, and the fastest growing were silk and tobacco. The former made huge profits because of the monopoly of parachute exports in the Republic of China, while the latter suddenly needed to supply millions of troops with the "military demand" and led to a surge in exports.

But there are also many shortcomings, especially after obtaining huge loans and investing half of them into industrial and infrastructure construction, resulting in a surge in steel demand. Although the country's steel production exceeded the 500,000 tons mark last year, it is far from meeting the current annual demand of at least 3 million. The three steel plants in Hanyang, Chongqing and Dangtu have done their best, and the Sino-French steel plants in Northeast Anshan and Changchun are all in the early stages of construction and start-up. Therefore, after Europe, especially the United States, the export of steel in China and the United States has stopped, there is even a situation where railway subgrades have been repaired but it will take half a year to arrive.

After listening to the report, it was already midnight. He hugged Miao Luo before he could enjoy the feeling of being a little divorce better than a newlywed. Hangel, who came from Shanghai overnight, woke him up.

"Dear Counselor, don't you think it's very immoral to come early in the morning to wake up a husband who has just returned home for four months?" Yang Qiu looked at Miao Luo's back and looked at Hangel helplessly.

The two of them are old friends for many years. Last time they visited Hangel in the United States, they accompanied them all, so they deliberately glared and said, "Who asked you to call and say you have arms? Am I still being pulled out of my wife's quilt by that old bastard Rui Enshi." He picked up *小文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文杨文�

The telegram sent the world to raise arms and arms, which would eventually reach 4 million US volunteers. Since the United States was not a major arms manufacturer before the war, its output was even worse than Italy, and all the arms produced after the outbreak of the European War were also exported to agreements. In particular, Russia's orders accounted for 60%. Now that he joined the war, he found that in addition to the revolver carried by the "crowd boys", there were only 300,000 rifles left in the national arsenal that had not been delivered to Russia and a few dozen old cannons that had long been eliminated in Europe.

300,000 vs. 4 million, the gap is too big!

Of course, if the United States is given two years, this amount of arms can still be easily built. But the problem is that Britain and France can't wait for two years, but after they support the 35 divisions of the National Defense Forces for free, their arms production has reached its limit.

Currently, Germany is undoubtedly the world's largest arms producer. In three years, it has manufactured 6 million rifles, 200,000 machine guns and more than 40,000 cannons. In the past three years, the four major weapons manufacturers of Britain, France, Russia and Italy have manufactured a total of 10 million rifles, 400,000 machine guns and more than 50,000 cannons. It seems that a lot, but Russia alone has lost all the equipment of 200 divisions, which is equivalent to the total loss of British and French support and purchases from the United States! In addition, after joining the war in the Republic of China, Britain and France have supported 35 divisions in the past year, totaling about 700,000 rifles, 30,000 light and heavy machine guns and 3,000 various cannons, so it is really impossible to get more weapons. For this reason, the governments of Britain, France and the United States are not allowed to send special telegrams to diplomats to collect second-hand goods all over the world.

Rui Enshi and Hangel also thought about purchasing from the Republic of China, but thought that they might have no stock after they joined the war, so they looked at Japan, but they didn't expect that Yang Qiu's phone call came before they could be sent out.

Does Yang Qiu really have arms in his hands?

There is really!

In 1914, when the outbreak of Europe, the three factories in Hanyang, Chongqing and Zhengzhou could manufacture about 12,000 rifles per month, but by mid-1915, this number increased to 15,000, and after entering 1916, it had exceeded 20,000 per month. According to the Ministry of Defense, after all the military manufacturing equipment moved back from Britain, France and Russia by the Meihuā Agreement was built, the monthly output of 40,000 units could reach the end of 1919.

, Because Yang Qiu deliberately delayed through various means and delivered 800,000 new guns to Russia with an old gun, he accumulated more than 300,000 rifles in his hand in three years, in addition to rifles, there were 200,000 grenade launchers and 100,000 Stend submachine guns. In addition to these, there were about 200,000 rifles seized by the Expeditionary Force not long ago. There were thousands of cannons and machine guns of different standards, which were enough to solve the weapons needs of 600,000 American volunteers at one time.

Of course. The United States is already an ally. Although it is easy to offer a price, it can easily give people the feeling of taking advantage of others' danger. Therefore, the self-made weapons are sold at the current market price, and the seized are completely sold and sold at half-time. But even the market price is more than twice as expensive as before the war. However, since it has announced that it has joined the war, the US government, which has already made a lot of money in the past three years, will not care about such a little money at all, so the two quickly finalized the $120 million weapon contract.

With the domestic reserves, Hangel was much more relaxed after getting the first batch of 1 million volunteer equipment and began to turn his attention to the endless new weapon patents in Yang Qiu's hands. Because the United States did not expect it to intervene in the war, Britain, France and Germany did not participate when they purchased weapons patents of the Republic of China before the war. Therefore, the United States, which was seriously behind in the army's weapons equipment, realized that it had to buy a batch of patented technology to imitate. Grenade launchers are simple and easy to make, and the Han-2 light machine guns that imitate ZB26 are also very needed. The latest 25mm wild bee rapid-fire cannon, long-range cannon, and Haidongqing battle

Reconnaissance aircraft, T2 armored vehicles, mortars, etc. have all proposed to purchase manufacturing patents, and even the United States has proposed to purchase the 12.7mm fanged heavy machine gun. I really don’t know if Browning will cry.

According to the tradition of selling patents in the Republic of China, the United States also had to purchase a batch, so the final contract totaled US$260 million! Since Russia has paid half of the purchase price in the past three years, the profit of this huge contract after selling it for two is as high as US$180 million.

It is considered to have revenge the four Anhai-class slaughtered!

After the bargaining, the two reached this sky-high contract, which also included the free gift of 500 T2 armored vehicles, 2,000 engines and 700,000 barrels of oil to the Republic of China in the name of supporting allies, and at the same time, 5 million tons of crude steel were sold to the Republic of China at a low price in the next two years.

When Song Ziqing and Fang Rui arrived, Hangel had already returned to Shanghai with a draft contract, waiting for the final confirmation of the US government. When he heard that all the Russian orders were sold to the United States, he couldn't help but worry that if the judgment was wrong this time, Russia would probably have a lot of trouble after pursuing the contract after the war. Yang Qiu not only did not worry, but also asked him to take out the guns and ammunition stored by the National Defense Forces and fill it up as soon as possible to complete the transaction.

After handling the military contract, he personally closed the study door and his eyes gradually became serious and asked, "How is the preparation for the sunrise plan?" Fang Rui first took out thick information. He started with a pen along the Siberian Railway Ural, connecting the Yekaterin Arbor-Chlyabinsku-Petropavlovsk-Omsk-Tomsk-Irkutsk-Chitark-Chitark along the way into a straight line, and said, "This is the eight strategic impulse that must be controlled after the plan begins! According to preliminary information, there are about 10,000 troops in Yekaterin Arbor, and less than 3,000 people in the rest of the place, but Vladivostok and Boli have 30,000 people to guard against them.

We have infiltrated the method of using the communist railway. As long as the action suddenly becomes 90% sure, we can quickly seize and control the garrison. On this line, Ekaterin Arbor is undoubtedly the key point! It has 2 million tons of steel smelting and processing capacity, and is Russia's second largest steel center, the first major special metallurgy and non-ferrous metal mineral center, the fourth largest weapon and weapon manufacturing and vehicle center, and the second largest train manufacturing center According to the calculations of the Ministry of Industry, even if it is not counted in the latter cities along the way, the value here alone is as high as 1 billion US dollars! If all of them are included, there is about 1.

500 million US dollars, equivalent to 2.2 times the current industry in my country! "However," Fang Rui rarely scratched his head and turned to the last page of the information: "If we want to transport them safely within 5 months of winter, at least 150,000 soldiers need to be dispatched to protect and escort along the way, and at least 2,300 trains are required to work continuously. However, according to our information, there are only 11,000 trains in Russia, and only 1,372 are running from Ural to Vladivostok. Even if we do it smoothly, we will get at most more than 1,000 trains. Our own broad rail transformation trains have only 200 trains and a gap of 1,100! ".
