After dinner, An Yi, Ou Chuer, Gong Qian and Jiang Yunshan came to the living room together. Prime Minister Xu Ziliang, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Industry Dong Fuchuan, Foreign Minister Ngo Dinh Diem, Minister of Commerce Le Cheng and Minister of General Logistics Chang Baofang were already waiting. It's here.
"Everyone, please sit down!"
An Yi invited everyone to sit down at the coffee table and waited for the waiter to bring tea. Shen Fengdao handed everyone the trade agreement reached between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Soviet Union, and An Yi introduced:
"Based on the verbal agreement reached during my second meeting with Malenkov, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Soviet Union quickly reached a new trade agreement after negotiations. Now the Soviet government has publicly announced that it has officially joined the Karachi system and recognized the Chinese dollar as the only trade settlement currency. At the same time, The Transcaucasus region legally belongs to us, which is gratifying! However, in terms of specific implementation, I have a question: Is the industrial sector sure of meeting the Soviet Union’s request?”
Dong Fuchuan, who was in charge of industry, was obviously well prepared. After reading the document, he spoke eloquently:
"If it had been two or three years in advance, it would definitely not have worked. At that time, our industrial base was very weak and it would be difficult to satisfy ourselves, let alone such a large-scale trade! However, Mongolia and Central Asia have been developed for five years now. Industry has made great progress. In 1939, Wuyuan City (formerly Novosibirsk City), Beixing City (formerly Barnaul), and Anyi City (formerly Kemerovo) formed the coal, steel and military industrial belt in the triangle. With the rapid rise of the Soviet Union and the newly acquired eastern Ural, Far East and Northeastern industrial zones last year, our production capacity has increased very rapidly. To be more arrogant, the military production capacity in the former Soviet Union alone is enough to meet the needs of the Soviet Union. In general For us, this trade agreement is still very profitable!”
Ou Chuer put down the document in his hand, nodded and said: "I have to say that the Soviet Union is really bleeding a lot this time. According to the trade agreement reached with us, the Soviet Union borrowed five billion Chinese dollars in interest-free loans from the Alliance Bank. , used to purchase our weapons and equipment to sustain the war in Moscow.
"The Soviet Union, the former second largest industrial country in the world, was the first among the great powers to recognize our Karachi system, which is very beneficial to us in improving the status of the Hua Yuan. Moreover, the Soviet Union's loan immediately tightened the supply of our Hua Yuan. Taking into account the loan agreements we have reached with West Asian countries, our issuance of Chinese dollars can exceed 15 trillion this year, almost double last year's amount."
Chang Baofang asked with some worry: "Nowadays, industrial and agricultural production, supply and sales are booming. I am not worried about inflation, but after several consecutive wars, the inventory of our logistics department has been almost emptied. Now we are not giving priority to satisfying our needs." In order to meet the needs of the military and sell a large number of newly produced military products to the outside world, will this affect our next war?"
"Probably not!"
Dong Fuchuan answered confidently: "With the steel production of Anyi Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd. exceeding 20 million tons, and the Xiliu Iron and Steel Base in Western Han Province (former Magnitogorsk Steel City) undergoing technical transformation, The monthly steel production has increased from 400,000 tons when production resumed to one million tons. This year, our total steel production will reach an unprecedented scale of 60 million tons.
"This number is second only to the 80 million tons of the United States, which has severely shrunk its production capacity. It is basically the same as Germany, which has integrated the entire European industry! As for the Soviet Union, the former third largest steel country, the total steel production has increased from 32 million tons before the war.
, has dropped all the way to the current 5 million tons, which means that the Soviet Union will be at an absolute disadvantage when facing Germany's huge military production. It will not be able to support the brutal war on its own and can only rely on us for blood transfusions. This way
You must borrow from us again!
"Doing business is not as simple as one plus one. The stimulating effect of industrial production on the economy can be described as a multiplier. As everyone knows, most of our production lines in Central Asia, Siberia and Mongolia follow the Soviet Union.
The newly established Eastern Han and Western Han provinces this year have retained many industrial production lines produced and introduced by the Soviet Union during the First and Second Five-Year Plans! This means that we do not need to replace or upgrade production lines to supply weapons and equipment to the Soviets.
Just use the machinery and equipment in stock to start work!
"Comrades, don't look at the staggering amount of this interest-free loan with a total amount of 5 billion yuan for the purchase of weapons and equipment. It includes 10 million hand grenades, 5 million Mosin Nagant rifles, 5 million
One hundred thousand Zhongzheng second type punch
submachine guns, 200,000 Zhongzheng III general-purpose machine guns, 200,000 Type 50 mortars, 20,000 August 1 mortars, 20,000 75mm field guns, 10,000 105mm mountain howitzers, one
Ten thousand T34 tanks, ten thousand
Six-wheeled and eight-wheeled combat vehicles, 10,000 A27 fighter jets, 10,000 vehicle-mounted medium-sized mortar vehicles modified from American Dodge medium-sized Jeeps, 5,000 'Katyusha' rocket launcher vehicles and an accompanying
Millions of rockets, etc., but in fact it is only our production for half a year. When this batch of equipment is used up, the Soviets who are accustomed to using our weapons will have no choice but to order from us again to maintain the war situation.
The benefits will be huge."
Minister of Commerce Le Cheng strongly agreed with Dong Fuchuan's statement: "The purchase of weapons and equipment is only part of a huge order. The Soviets urgently need fuel, food, cotton clothes, military uniforms, daily necessities, etc., which is a great stimulus to all walks of life in our country.
Coupled with our trade with the British, Americans and secretly with the Germans and Italians, it is expected that this year's total economic growth will increase two to three times on last year's basis, achieving leapfrog development again!"
An Yi nodded happily: "That's great! Nazism and Bolshevism are natural mortal enemies, and the huge sacrifices and destruction caused by the brutal war made it impossible to reach reconciliation between the two countries. In this case, we
Trade will be greatly developed, thereby promoting the continued progress of industry and agriculture. As we all know, the United States rose through the last world war, and I hope that we will play this role this time.
"Okay, let's talk about this issue here, let's move on to the next topic! Brother Chonglou, can you introduce the situation of the newly established subcontinental countries. In the next two months, these seventeen countries will
The country was founded one after another and signed a series of cooperation agreements with us as soon as possible. Our Huayuan system will increase its capacity again!"
"OK!"
Xu Ziliang stood up and explained straight away:
“The purpose of our support for the establishment of a state by the indigenous people of the subcontinent is to purify the ethnic composition of the region and integrate Hindustani, Telugu, Bengali, Maratha, and Tamil people who believe in Hinduism, Islam, and Sikhism.
, the Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Punjabi, Badan and other ethnic groups should be separated from our country to avoid possible ethnic conflicts in the future and prevent further
The country is divided!
"According to the joint efforts of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the CIA, and the Ministry of National Security, as well as secret inspections by the supervisory authorities, we have now delineated the territories and national boundaries of these seventeen new countries and selected them from more than 1,600 candidates.
Seventeen new kings were selected who had a great favorable impression of our country and were willing to send the heir to the throne to study in our country.
These seventeen countries are located in the northern, southern and eastern regions of the subcontinent, and most of their territories are surrounded by our territory. Basically there is no outlet to the sea, and everything can only be contacted with the outside world through us, which makes our influence on these countries and
Control will be all-round and can ensure peace in the region after the war to the greatest extent.
"Among them, there are five countries in the northern part of the subcontinent that are closely adjacent to China's Xinjiang and Taiwan regions, namely the Kingdom of Himachal, the Kingdom of Dehradun, the Kingdom of Jimbawar, the Kingdom of Jammu, and the Kingdom of Gilgit. Himachal
The Kingdom of India borders the Kashmir region, with a total land area of 45,000 square kilometers and a population of 3 million. The capital is Shimla. King Agra Sharma, whose family belongs to the Brahmin class in Hinduism; the Kingdom of Dehradun is adjacent to Himachal
The kingdom has a total land area of 38,000 square kilometers and a population of 2 million. The capital is Rishikesh. King Koro Gupta’s family is a Kshatriya class in Hinduism. The Kingdom of Jimbawar is next to the Kingdom of Dehradun.
Like the Kingdom of Himachal and the Kingdom of Dehradun, it is located at the southern foot of the Himalayas, with a total land area of 40,000 square kilometers. It has a population of 3.5 million, the capital is Hardwar, and its king, Jaila Patel, belongs to the Hindu
Brahmin class;
"The situation of the Kingdom of Jammu and Gilgit is very special. It turned out to be the largest princely state of British India, Kashmir. 70% of the indigenous residents believe in Islam, 20% believe in Hinduism, and there are a few Sikhs.
Christians and Buddhists, but unfortunately most of them died of the plague in 1939, and now they can only rely on immigrants from outside to replenish the population of the place.
"According to the wishes of the local people, we divided them by religion. People who believe in Hinduism are included in the Kingdom of Jammu, and people who believe in Islam belong to the Kingdom of Gilgit. The Kingdom of Jammu has an area of 90,000 square kilometers and a population of 300
500,000, the capital is Srinagar, the king is Motu.
Yidi has a high reputation among Muslims."
"In this way, we have solved a total population of more than 18 million, which only accounts for about 15% of the population that needs to be stripped. It seems very difficult to achieve the predetermined goal!" Gong Qian calculated in her mind,
Couldn't help but interject.
An Yi explained: "Sister Qian, these five countries are located in plateau and mountainous areas. It is not easy to absorb such a large population! The key is the southern and eastern states, those countries in the tropical and plain areas.
Only then can we fully digest and absorb the population.”
"Yes, it is indeed so!"
Xu Ziliang said: “The princely states in the south are mainly distributed in the central and eastern Karnataka, central and western Andhra Pradesh, central and eastern Kerala, and central, northern and western Tamil Nadu in the former British India.
, all are plateaus and plains with summer-like conditions all year round. The land is fertile, and the water conservancy and irrigation facilities built by the British can support a larger population. Let me briefly introduce the names, territorial areas, populations and kings of these kingdoms.
Condition.
"The Kingdom of Mysore, with an area of about 45,000 square kilometers, and a population of about 9.5 million, has King Wodeya III, a Brahmin class; the Kingdom of Karakat, with an area of about 42,000 square kilometers, and a population of 800
Around 400,000 people, King Maya Pillai, Kshatriya class; Karnanoor Kingdom, with a land area of about 48,000 square kilometers and a population of about 9.9 million, King Nalo IV, Brahmin class;
The Kingdom of Daipur covers an area of approximately 50,000 square kilometers and has a population of
Around 11 million, King Champo Nizam, Brahmin class; Chodlur Kingdom, with a land area of about 47,000 square kilometers and a population of about 10 million, King Singh II, Kshatriya class
; The Kingdom of Hyderabad, with a land area of about 64,000 square kilometers, and a population of about 18 million. King Sumbattle, a Brahmin class; the Kingdom of Bhopal, with a land area of about 59,000 square kilometers, and a population of 1
Around 15 million, King Jadhav II, Kshatriya class.”
"The tropics are really different!" Gong Qian said with emotion: "With only seven more countries, the population has absorbed more than 80 million people. In this way, nearly 100 million people have been almost digested!"
Xu Ziliang nodded: "In addition, the five eastern Islamic countries of Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura and the Kingdom of Arakan established in the former British Indian Bengal region were devastated by plague and war.
The remaining 110 million Indians will have new homes.
"These new countries are basically feudal and independent countries, and some of them even retain slavery. In the family relationship of the king, there is still a matriarchal system, and the clan relationship is quite strong. Due to the Hindu-controlled ideology, people are born from birth.
Since then, we have been bound by the caste system, and the Brahmins and Kshatriyas, who constitute a minority of the population, have absolute authority over the lower castes, so we basically don’t have to worry about large-scale riots.”
An Yi smiled: "This is the Indians' own choice, and we have nothing to do. I hope that as time changes, everything will develop in a good direction."
Subsequently, many issues were discussed at the meeting, and people did not disperse until late at night.
