Yang Zhen turned the pen in his hand and said in a somewhat uninterested tone: "We have won the last few years, which makes the Americans think that we still have value. Once they feel that we have no value to them, even
It will affect their so-called interests in China, and they will tighten their pockets."
"If you can't let go of your children, you can't trap the wolf. Although we have paid a certain price, even though this price is high in the eyes of many people, the aid from the United States and the United Kingdom will not be given in vain unless it costs less. Especially what we want is not equipment, but
What is needed is technology and a large number of equipment needed to build a complete modern industry, which itself is much more difficult than obtaining equipment."
"Just like a cat teaches a tiger how to climb a tree, but never teaches the tiger how to climb a tree. Those capitalists who are deeply interested in profit know this truth better than anyone else. Keep the equipment simple and they will be able to use you when they need you.
, can at least meet most of your requirements.”
"Because as long as you don't have modern industry, your life will always be in the hands of others. When they want to give you something, give it to you like charity. Once they feel that your existence is a threat to them, they will not do anything.
Cut off all your blood vessels without hesitation."
"The Western powers are all masters of this kind of trick. When they use you, they can meet many of your requirements. But once they feel that you threaten their rule or their own security, even slightly
If someone is disobedient, just like the Japanese today, he can turn against him immediately."
"Boss, the reason why the Japanese can rise is not only the willpower of the nation itself, but also the support of the British. Without the support of the American and British consortium, the Japanese cannot win a war. But now the United States and Britain
Once we feel threatened by the Japanese, we will immediately begin to impose economic sanctions on them."
"As for the excuse, it is too simple. The so-called human rights and the so-called democracy can be used as excuses and reasons for them to sanction you. As long as you do not have modern industry and cannot do without external blood transfusion, they will punish you.
There are many ways."
"If he can't do anything to you on the battlefield, he will attack you from within. He will adopt economic and military sanctions externally and win over some people internally to establish a so-called Western political system. Bosses, don't forget that in their eyes, we and the Soviets have an old
Ancestors. Even in their eyes, we are still a branch of the Soviet-controlled Communist International."
"In this war, they need us now, and it is easy to ask for assistance with weapons and equipment. But what about the boss after the war? Will Chongqing allow us to exist? Compared to Chongqing itself, which is pro-American and British, the balance after the war
Who is more important between us and Chongqing?"
"We will not take advantage of this opportunity to develop our own modern industry. When the aid from the Americans is cut off, the Soviets will always regard their own interests as the foundation. They only have their own interests in mind. The interests of other countries will not matter to them.
None."
"If we don't take advantage of this moment to build our own modern industry, what should we do when foreign support is cut off? Should we bow down, lay down our weapons and let others slaughter us, or should we go back to the past and fight guerrillas in the mountains? We must learn from Yan's example.
Xishan cannot learn from Chongqing.”
"You want to fight, but you have no ammunition for your guns and cannons. Every cannon is damaged and one is missing. If you blow up a machine gun, there will be no replenishment. There is no fuel for the cars and tanks, and there is no source of necessary spare parts. During the war, you can get some ammunition.
Kill one shot and lose another. Under this situation, are we still going to follow the old path and fight with others head-on?"
"I also know that at this time, it is extremely difficult to equip ourselves with simple equipment. We need industrial equipment and production technology. The Americans will not allow us, who are pro-Soviet in their eyes, to use this war to truly develop and grow and threaten us.
When we come to Chongqing to rule, they will provide us with equipment, because they also know that if we have to work hard, we will not be able to do it without bleeding."
"But these industrial equipment and production technologies are like the last tree-climbing skill that a cat has mastered. They will not give it to you unless they have to. These things that are related to their own vital interests will also affect the war effort.
They will be extremely cautious about things related to the post-China pattern. Our Internationale has repeatedly told us that there has never been a savior in this world."
"There are also capitalist countries, where everything is about money and interests. If they want your market, how can they hand over the technology they have to you and spend a huge price to cultivate an opponent for themselves? You have learned these things
Are you using technology to compete with them for the market?"
"We have nothing to exchange, and we don't have enough funds to carry out industrialization and modernization. Coupled with our current political status, it is too difficult to carry out construction. If we don't come up with something, how can the Americans
Think they can’t do without us at least now? How can we make them bleed?”
"It is true that we have reached an agreement with them, but I have said that these things are just an agreement if taken seriously. If not taken seriously, it is just a pile of waste paper. An agreement without execution and performance will always be nothing more than an agreement.
A pile of rubbish and a pile of waste paper. In the face of profit, they are nothing."
"Especially for the Americans, once they are truly mobilized, the threat from the Japanese is nothing more than a scabies problem to them. With the strength of the Americans, they don't need to use half of their body, but only stretch out one arm and one leg.
can easily solve the Japanese threat in the Pacific."
"The difference in national power between the two countries is too far. Even without us, it will only take four years for the Japanese to survive. If we don't think of a way, before the Americans can recover, we can get back some more of what we want."
It is also the equipment and technology for building our own modern industry. My eyes are so shallow that I only focus on the equipment."
"After the Americans turn to a full-scale counterattack and rely on their own strong national strength to completely defeat the Japanese, what awaits us in the future will only be empty baskets. Even if one day we seize power across the country, we will never think about it again.
The cost of building our own modern industry will be unbearable for us."
"Boss, in front of Americans who seem simple but are actually extremely smart, it is basically impossible to get what you want without paying the price. Even if you want equipment, if the United States does not feel that these
If the equipment given to us can play most of the roles they want us to play, the Americans will not give us a rifle or a bullet."
"Finally, and the most critical point. This year and next are critical periods for our development and construction. And now the Japanese are on the Pacific battlefield, conquering cities and territories all the way. It seems that they are going smoothly. But in fact, their hands have been stretched to the extreme.
The offensive has actually reached its final stage. In most areas, they have begun to switch to defensive operations."
"Oil-rich Southeast Asia is indeed important to Japan. But if Southeast Asia is the Japanese oil depot, then Northeast China is the lifeline for the Japanese to maintain this war. Without the industry of South Manchuria, there will be no South Manchuria.
With sufficient food and mineral resources, the Japanese cannot afford to fight this war."
"Compared with Southeast Asia, Northeast China seems to have no oil, but it is the real lifeblood of the Japanese. The entire Fengtian Arsenal supplied 60% of the ammunition for the Japanese invaders and most of the Japanese army's small arms supply. Fushun
The coal in Hefuxin, the petroleum refining and chemical industry in Fushun, and the non-ferrous metal smelting industry in Huludao are all the foundation for the Japanese army to continue the war."
"Manchuria and Mongolia are the lifeline of Japan. The Japanese have shouted this for more than a year. Judging from their previous practices, all actions are also implemented in accordance with this slogan. First occupy the Northeast, rely on the resources of the Northeast, and gradually encroach on the pass, and finally
Launch a full-scale war of aggression against China and even wage war on the whole world."
"As long as they maintain their power over China, they will never give up their rule in the Northeast. And our presence has actually threatened the Japanese army's seemingly stable rule in the Northeast. If North Manchuria is lost, South Manchuria will naturally not be able to do so.
Stability. If South Manchuria is not stable, the Japanese's potential for sustained war will be greatly weakened."
"Even in order to maintain the progress of the war, after the Japanese army ends its offensive in Southeast Asia, it is bound to turn back to solve the Northeast issue. If we don't take advantage of the fact that a considerable part of their troops are still scattered on the islands in the Pacific and Southeast Asia.
This opportunity will completely defeat their fears and make them have scruples about our military when facing counterattacks from the US military."
"Then once it brings back all its troops from Southeast Asia or starts a general mobilization domestically, it will really be a more difficult test for us. Boss, the basis for determining the outcome of the future Japan-U.S. war,
Not the army but the navy."
"We have no navy and will not pose any threat to the Japanese at sea. And before the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet recovers its strength, the Japanese can use the main force of their navy to continue to deal with the Americans and retain a certain amount of troops in Southeast Asia.
Use the main force of the Army against us."
"Even if the Anti-Japanese Alliance has made great progress now, once Japan devotes all its national strength to counterattack, what awaits us will be a more brutal battle. We do not have our own aircraft industry, and one less aircraft will be destroyed, and one less tank will be destroyed.
One less car was destroyed. And the construction we are doing in northern Manchuria cannot be hidden from the eyes of the Japanese."
"Although we have signed aid agreements with the United States and Britain, only God knows when the weapons and equipment in these agreements will be in place, especially the heavy equipment that we cannot produce ourselves. Without the supplement of heavy equipment,
Millets and rifles alone cannot stop the Japanese army from counterattacking the Northeast. Without effective air defense capabilities, a large-scale bombing can completely destroy our construction results."
"If we don't seize this rare opportunity that the Japanese troops are dispersed throughout Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific, we will completely hurt and frighten the Japanese. Once the Japanese are allowed to withdraw their main forces in Southeast Asia, especially the huge aviation force,
If we come back, what awaits us will be complete destruction. With our little industrial foundation, we cannot even withstand several strategic bombings by the Japanese army."
"If the industry in Chongqing is like a fragile and delicate young lady, then the industry we are building is like a baby that has just emerged from its infancy. It is even more powerless and cannot withstand any of its tossing. The Japanese look like wolves on the surface.
In fact, the character of this nation is that of the dog."
"If you beat them to death until they dare not scream with their tails between their legs when they see you from now on, then you can truly subdue them. If you don't bleed them thoroughly and completely cut them off,
If they want to go north to retake the entire Northeast, our base in Northern Manchuria will not be able to live peacefully for a day, nor will we be allowed to continue construction. Our troops will also face greater pressure. In this world, there are only
It takes a thousand days to be a thief, but a thousand days to guard against a thief."
