"It's really unexpected. Xia Han actually established a relationship with the German Commander-in-Chief, and suddenly opened the door to cooperation with Germany. It is a first achievement. It must be well rewarded." Yang Yuting said with a smile.
.
Zhang Tinglan was also very happy. In the past, it was just a one-time deal to mess around with a few machines, but once a long-term cooperative relationship was established, the benefits would be endless.
Throughout modern history, most of the good things that China can get came from Germany, such as the Dingyuan and Zhenyuan warships, Hanyang Iron Works, Gongxian Arsenal, and later the famous German weapon masters. In addition, Germany also used
The establishment of a science and engineering university in Qingdao is unique among the great powers.
Church schools in Britain, the United States and other countries all teach liberal arts, and can offer medicine, law, etc., even if they are comprehensive universities. It is not difficult to understand the reason. The Anglo-Saxons in Britain, the United States and other countries have done too many immoral things to annihilate their descendants.
They were very afraid of later countries embarking on the road of industrialization, so they tried every means to restrict it, which became even more severe in later generations.
As for the Germans, the moral burden is not heavy, so they can provide more good things. Especially after the end of World War I, Germany lost Jiaozhou Bay, which on the contrary eliminated the last obstacle to cooperation between China and Germany.
"After the Germans were defeated, they were not reconciled. This time Sekt offered to engage in technical exchanges with us. In fact, to put it bluntly, it was to transfer some military industries to Fengtian and use the land in the three northeastern provinces to retain new technologies.
. Verify new weapons, and at the same time obtain material supplies from China to help them get out of trouble and even rearm their arms."
"My words hit the nail on the head. The Germans must be making this wishful thinking, but what measures should we take?"
"Of course we want it!" Zhang Tinglan laughed and said: "Germany wants to use us. Similarly, we can also learn German technology and even directly tap German talents. This is a win-win cooperation. However, when cooperating, we must
With your eyes open, you must learn the true skills from the Germans, and you must be better than the old."
China and Germany are half a world apart, have no borders, and have no entanglements with colonial interests. They are the most ideal partners for cooperation. In history, Germany even exported a large amount of technology to the Soviet Union, including submarines, aircraft, tanks, etc. The Soviet Union is
It was thanks to these technologies that industrialization was quickly completed and a strong industrial system was established. In the end, the old master was even punched to death, which made people very emotional.
If China could obtain technical assistance from Germany and establish an industrial system, the fight against Japan would not be so miserable. I have to say that the Chinese people in power at that time were extremely short-sighted.
Now Fengjun has basically achieved an independent status. It also has a certain industrial foundation, and it is far away in East Asia and has no serious conflicts with Germany. It has all the conditions to obtain German technology.
"I think cooperation with Germany can be divided into three aspects. The first is the exchange of technical equipment. We need to obtain various urgently needed machine technologies from Germany. We should improve the industries in the three eastern provinces and build a complete industrial system; the second is the exchange of capital, which can
Allow German businessmen to invest in industries and develop resources in the Northeast. At the same time, we must also invest in Germany and acquire some promising small and medium-sized enterprises; the third level is personnel exchange. Germany can send their soldiers and technical workers over to experiment with new weapons.
, to learn new tactics and test new techniques, we also need to send a large number of overseas students to Germany. It is best to introduce the German vocational education system to Fengtian to train sufficient workers for us."
Germany has gone through two world wars and has been able to rise again and again. It has always been the most influential country on the European continent. This has a lot to do with their developed vocational education. In later generations, Chinese students often have poor grades and fail to take exams.
Only those who go to college will go to technical schools to study.
Among Germans of the same age, only 20% will enter university, and the other 80% will participate in vocational education and be trained to become skilled workers. It is precisely because of the huge team of technicians and superb professional skills.
Quality is what supports Germany’s manufacturing base.
Zhang Tinglan has also experienced it personally. On the one hand, there is a surplus of college students who cannot find suitable jobs. On the other hand, factories are in urgent need of skilled workers. In fact, to put it bluntly, talent training is misplaced. In addition to civil servants and lawyers, undergraduates who have graduated from universities
In addition to journalists, doctors, and senior managers, talents in science and engineering should also be engaged in research-type industries, and they are basically high-end talents.
As a result, a large number of unsuitable people poured in, which not only lowered the level of university education, but also caused severe unemployment.
Cultivating talents has always been something that Zhang Tinglan pays great attention to. From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, China's education as a whole has gone in the wrong direction, cultivating a large number of masters and scholars who do not do practical things, and there are almost no ones who can actually do anything practical.
Of course, society also needs some scholars, but without the support of solid bottom-level talents, these high-end talents will not be able to do anything practical. As a result, they have become slippery and become literary thieves who rely on showing off. Not only do they have no positive effect,
Often, good things are ruined because of their recklessness.
Zhang Tinglan proposed introducing the German vocational education system to train industrial workers, and received support from Yang Yuting and others.
"I would like to say that these three points you put forward will serve as the principles for our negotiations with the Germans. The specific projects should be determined as soon as possible. The sooner they are implemented, the better it will be for us to improve our strength."
"Well, let Gu Weijun go to Germany in person. We have shown enough sincerity and we must strive to reach a cooperation agreement."
Cooperation with Germany is not a small matter and involves all aspects. Zhang Tinglan invited Gu Weijun, Wang Yongjiang and others over, and everyone discussed it carefully.
"I would like to say that we can also refine our cooperation. For example, the export of mineral products can be treated as a separate item. The three eastern provinces have had good harvests every year, and there is a large amount of grain stored in the warehouse. We can simply export it to Germany in exchange for machinery and equipment.
." Wang Yongjiang put forward his own ideas.
Gu Weijun said with a smile: "Governor Wang's idea is great. Germany is seriously short of food after the war. Coupled with the depreciation of the mark, it cannot import enough food. People are complaining. If Fengtian can provide a batch of preferential food, Germany will definitely be able to win.
friendship."
"Well, Minister Gu, when you visit Germany, you can promise to provide 50,000 tons of free food and 200,000 tons of low-priced food to Germany."
After Fengtian discussed it, Gu Weijun left for Germany. Although this was just a secret diplomatic action, the two sides reached the Tinder Plan, opening the door to nearly two decades of military and technological exchanges between China and Germany, and completely allowing China to enter the industrial stage.
era. At the same time, it also greatly enhanced Germany's war potential, making the war twenty years later even more brutal and terrifying.
After establishing a line with Germany, Zhang Tinglan was in a very good mood. His main focus now was on Guan Nei, and he negotiated an arms exchange agreement with Wu Peifu. Opening the door to Guan Nei for goods from the three eastern provinces, Feng Jun
If you can have a stable rear, you can safely go north and compete with the Russians.
Just when Zhang Tinglan was feeling complacent, Feng Yongshuang and Chang Yinhuai suddenly came over together, and the two intelligence chiefs were dispatched together. This was definitely not a small matter.
"Commander, after Kolchak's most elite divisions were annihilated by the Russian Red Army and lost tens of thousands of his men, Kolchak is no longer able to gain a foothold in the Ural region and is preparing to lead his men to retreat eastward."
When Zhang Tinglan heard the news, he frowned. Kolchak was a loser. He had already donated blood to Russia, and at the same time, he gave him a fake princess and asked him to give orders to all parties. Unexpectedly, Kolchak supported him.
The time is almost the same as in history. It is simply unreasonable!
In fact, Zhang Tinglan wronged Kolchak. In fact, Zhang Tinglan was also responsible for Kolchak's defeat. He encouraged Ivanov to fight the Japanese in the Far East. As a result, the Trans-Siberian Railway came to a standstill and the Japanese had no time to support it.
Kolchak.
Although having a princess commanded the world, it also deepened the majority of the party's fear of him. As a result, the Red Army concentrated its forces and defeated Kolchak, forcing him to flee towards the Far East.
"No matter how he failed, our plan will be implemented immediately. The gold carried by Kolchak, as well as the talents from various industries who follow them, must be in our hands, and we must make arrangements now."
"Yes!" Chang Yinhuai and Feng Yongshuang agreed in unison. They had already formulated a detailed plan for Kolchak, and they could just start it immediately when a situation arises.
After the two intelligence chiefs left, Zhang Tinglan hurriedly found all his military and political officials and introduced the situation to everyone.
"I thought Kolchak could hold on for a few more months, but I didn't know he failed so quickly. Fengjun must focus on the northern front, and the entire army will move north immediately."
Having said this, Zhang Tinglan looked at Wang Yongjiang, and then said: "Mr. Minyuan, all government affairs in Fengtian will be handed over to you. In addition, you will also be fully responsible for the negotiations with Wu Peifu."
"I don't worry, there will be no problems in the rear. I will do my best to ensure the supply to the front."
Zhang Tinglan kept Wang Yongjiang and Zhu Qinglan in Fengtian. With these two men being both civil and military, and with his father Zhang Zuoxiang in charge, there would definitely be no problems in the three eastern provinces.
In addition, Sun Anhu was appointed as the commander of the Mongolian Xinjiang Military Region, responsible for guarding Rehe, Chahar, Suiyuan, Outer Mongolia and other places. These areas have just recovered and must be guarded by reliable personnel. Sun Anhu, who has followed Zhang and his son for many years, is undoubtedly the best
As for the choice, everyone else will follow Zhang Tinglan northward.
This time, the Fengjun Army did indeed bring out its most elite forces. Among them, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Infantry Divisions of the Border Guard Army that had been reorganized were all dispatched, the 1st Artillery Division, the 2nd Cavalry Brigade, two independent artillery brigades, and a tank brigade.
, air force units, and special operations units all mobilized to the northern front, with a total strength of more than 70,000, all of whom were the cream of the Feng army.
In addition, 200,000 civilians were mobilized to help the Feng army transport war supplies and build roads. The Jilin-Fenghuang Railway and the Middle East Road were all busy, with more than 30 trains running every day, and a large number of people and materials were sent to
The border areas between China and Russia, especially Hailanpao and other places.
After almost two years of operation by Feng Jun, this place has become as impregnable as an iron barrel. Li Jinglin personally supervised the work and used a large number of Russian laborers to build four large forts and three forts along the coast of about 100 kilometers along the Heilongjiang River.
an airport.
A dense fortification group was built outside Hailanpao and Jiangdong No. 64 Tun, and a network of bunker fortifications, underground tunnels, and even a large number of air-raid shelters were dug. All imaginable aspects were achieved.
Such a huge project also consumed a large number of Russian lives. Dead people were transported out of the concentration camp almost every day. Li Jinglin, who was responsible for managing the concentration camp, also received the title of Bloody Devil.
But it was all worth it. Fengjun finally had the strongest support in the Far East, and Li Jinglin was indispensable. After Zhang Tinglan arrived in Hailanpao, he greatly appreciated Li Jinglin's work.
"Commander, just watching the Russians and Japanese come and go in the past two years, my brothers have already itched their hands, and everyone knows that the land under our feet turns out to be ours. Watching two bandits attacking us
I feel very uncomfortable fighting on the land!"
"Well, Fengjun is almost ready now. We also need enough strength. We don't have to hold back anymore. We have to go out and get all these lands back!" Zhang Tinglan said and slammed the table, teapot and teacup on it.
