When civilian transport ships compete with military warships for high-quality steel, when military vehicles and household appliances compete for high-grade plates, when large-scale national projects compete with some military projects for large-scale integrated circuits, and even when national key civilian projects compete with the army for high-grade cement and high-grade steel bars, the state will come forward to balance and compare the importance, and civilian projects will rob some of the materials......

Sometimes the military even has to make concessions to key projects and large civilian product enterprises, at least because they cannot fully meet the needs of the military and let civilian products stagnate.

Of course, many times they have taken a step back, producing less civilian products and less military products. Of course, if it is the export of military products for foreign exchange, that is another matter, but the exchange of military products for foreign exchange also preempts the production of military products of their own army.

You must know that in the past few years, China was completely a buyer's market, in other words, China is short of things everywhere, the people's living standards need to be improved urgently, and the army will not fight for a while, so that the local governments are inclined to their minds to civilian products, and they are willing to ask the country's scarce materials from the military to produce civilian products.

This is because the more civilian goods produced by local enterprises, the higher the profits they can make after selling them, the better the performance of officials, the more they can progress, and the faster they can be promoted. The development of the army in these officials can be done as long as they can get by, as long as the problem of having or not can be solved, there is no need to produce so much and wait for the outbreak of war in the warehouse, how much money will have to be wasted. Anyway, there is no need to fight now, so what's the hurry? If there is really a war, our enterprises can stop work and hand over all the raw materials to the military industrial enterprises.

It is precisely because of China's weak family background and precisely because the people's living standards are too poor and need to be greatly improved, that it is impossible for China to suddenly leap from a technologically backward country with weak military equipment to a powerful country with military equipment. I have to die for a lifetime.

Another reason why China could not seize the territory of the Soviet Union on a large scale was that China had already received the return of Outer Mongolia, and it was no longer a simple task to settle down this Outer Mongolia and make the lives of the ordinary people of Outer Mongolia as happy as the people in the mainland, and it would require great efforts from the central government, the government, and even the whole country, and a huge amount of money to be invested.

From the top chief to other bigwigs to Guo Zhuocheng, they are not so naïve as to think that investing money can solve the problem, and think that in a few years they can make the ordinary people of Outer Mongolia obedient and happy, and regard themselves as members of China. You must know that they have changed from an independent country to a province of China, and many officials who used to be high-ranking are now middle-level or even low-level officials all at once. They have too much unwillingness in their hearts.

In addition, there are many people who will certainly hope for and even seek independence through deeds, and there are some people who have dark hearts or are instigated by them to create turmoil, create chaos, and provoke national contradictions. And so on, the central government needs to come up with better measures to solve it.

The current situation in China can be described as an upstart country.

The country is too big and the situation is complicated, so I am afraid it is difficult to explain it clearly for a while, but people can observe it from a micro perspective, and you can analyze it with the current Chinese families, so that you can see China's current predicament:

Compared with previous years, the living standards of ordinary Chinese families have indeed improved a lot. I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and my family has bought electrical appliances that I have never used or seen before, and many families have lived in new houses. However, their accumulation in the past few years is also in the electrical appliances or housing in the past few years. When a fire occurs or a family member falls ill, life will go back to the past and become destitute. There is simply no ability to take much risk. They must be given more time, more accumulation. Only then can they resist the wind and rain and truly become a wealthy family.

This is the case for the Chinese people today. The same is true for the whole country of China, only by giving China a period of development and perfection, China will not only be glamorous on the outside, but also full on the inside, and only then can it become a truly rich country and withstand the hardships or wars imposed on China by the outside world.

The current China is very flamboyant, and the future China can be restrained. A few advanced weapons alone cannot sustain a country in a long-term war.

It is precisely because China's national base is too thin and there is not much wealth accumulation, and in the first few years of Mongolia's return to the motherland, China's national strength will not only not rise because of this, but will decline to a certain extent; if the central bigwigs are hot-headed and blindly plundered the land area of the Soviet Union and incorporate the divided Soviet territory into their own territory under the encouragement of nationalist ideology, the gains will certainly outweigh the losses and great contradictions will certainly arise.

After all, today's society is not intimidating by the size of the country.

Of course, it is impossible for China to be completely upright and not want any benefits at all, nor will it take nothing because of the fear of trouble and the opposition of other countries, such pedantic people do not say that Guo Zhuocheng cannot do it, that is, the most deeply influenced by Confucianism, the most honest central bigwigs will not be stupid to watch the excitement on the side, and will not shirk the benefits of others to the door, they just think more about how to eat fat meat while not choking, not hurting their stomach.

The collapse of the Soviet Union was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and if it was missed, it would not be possible to encounter it again in this lifetime, even in a few lifetimes, and it would be even more difficult to expand its territory in the future. When will you not do it now? Those surrounding places that used to belong to China, such as the Trans-Khingan Mountains, must be returned regardless of their barrenness, and those strategic places that can be obtained must be returned, and if Lake Baikal cannot be fully recovered, at least some of them must be taken back. On the other side of the Sea of Japan, there must be a large area of access to the sea, and Sakhalin Island must be as much as it can take, and it is better to return it all......

Based on the resumption of the territory ceded after the Treaty of Nebuchu, and then steadily return some other territories. Moreover, China has a favorable condition, that is, when the Soviet Union was first founded, Lenin twice announced the return of those territories to China.

In order to realize China's national interests at the present stage, in addition to domestic stability and not falling into the crisis of civil strife and ethnic contradictions because of the acquisition of Outer Mongolia or other land areas, China also needs a new country that can inherit the political legacy of the Soviet Union and attract the firepower of Western countries.

As the saying goes, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and when there was the Soviet Union in the past, regardless of whether the Chinese wanted it or not, we had to admit that China at that time could be said to have hid under the shade of the Soviet Union and avoided the encirclement of European and American countries, and the firepower of European and American countries was almost entirely aimed at the Soviet Union, and the firepower that fell on the Chinese was very small. In order to train China to become cannon fodder to contain the Soviet Union, European and American countries even helped China in a certain range and in a certain field.

Once the Soviet Union fell and no strong – at least superficially – countries were born, the firepower of Europe and the United States inevitably shifted from the former Soviet Union to the Chinese. Even if this new country cannot provide shade for China, it should have enough qualifications and capital to become China's helper, and be able to join forces with China to deal with European and American countries in order to share the firepower of European and American countries.

Therefore, on the one hand, Guo Zhuocheng hopes that Russia can be strong, not to be despised by Western countries, so that they are afraid that Russia will rise in the future, and they dare not take it lightly, so as to disperse the firepower of Western countries, and a relatively stable Russia can also ensure that he can make a lot of profits in Russia. On the other hand, he doesn't want Russia to be too strong, and having a tiger lying next to him is not a happy thing after all, and there are too many variables about China's real rise.

At a time when the central bigwigs were trying their best to make a smooth return to Outer Mongolia, let the territories that originally belonged to China return to China, and appropriately seize some strategic points along the Sino-Soviet border, Guo Zhuocheng was also trying his best to change his original money-making plan.

Yes, Guo Zhuocheng's investment opportunities in the Soviet Union this time encountered unprecedented difficulties, to put it bluntly, Guo Zhuocheng's plan this time was not perfect, or there was a big mistake, if he did not take immediate measures to change, it is very likely that he will fail to make money.

The reason for this dilemma is that Guo Zhuocheng believes too much in the memories in his head, and relies on the circumstances of the collapse of the Soviet Union that he remembers in his previous life, and his investment plan is almost based on that change.

The current situation of the collapse of the Soviet Union is so different from the collapse of the Soviet Union in the previous life that a large part of his investment plan cannot be realized, or the risks encountered in this life have increased because of the drastic changes in the Soviet Union.

The most obvious difference is that Ye Liqin's control over Russia has greatly decreased, and Russia in the previous life was established smoothly and took over almost all the property of the former Soviet Union, including economic property and political property, and took over most of the armed forces and almost all nuclear weapons, and only the top level in the entire former Soviet Union was turbulent, while the grassroots, especially the common people, were calm and watched the situation change step by step in a blank and calm manner.

It is precisely because of the smooth transition of Russia, the main body of the Soviet Union in the previous life, although the Russian economy almost collapsed because of shock therapy, but it was all carried out after the establishment of the Russian state, and it was carried out in Russia as a whole, and the government was also carried out smoothly one after another, so although many international contracts signed by the Soviet Union were not very smooth when they were performed, they were at least orderly, and they could be recognized and guaranteed by the Russian government, and the ruble loaned out of Soviet banks was only gradually depreciated. As long as you react quickly, you can still exchange it for new rubles or other international currencies.

However, it is impossible for Russia to make a smooth transition now, and it is really difficult to say how much territory Ye Liqin and their control of Russia will be able to control in the future.

What Guo has done most now is to destroy the natural inheritance that Russia had in its previous life.
