Chapter 582: Industry

That's the end of the oil business. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the one hand, the expeditionary force at this time did not have an urgent need for oil...... All the fuel only needs to be asked for by the United States, after all, the expeditionary force and the United States at this time are taking what they need, and Zhang Chi cannot worry about the United States.

On the other hand, from the strategic point of view, the oil field should not be exposed too early.

Therefore, Zhang Chi is not in a hurry for a while, and let Wentian Zuoxiong slowly cultivate talents.

As for the students who taught it to Fumida Sao, for the sake of insurance, Zhang Chi decided to transfer highly educated soldiers from the expeditionary force...... Most of the soldiers of the expeditionary force have read books, and it is really not difficult to find dozens of college students to follow Fumida Sao.

The problem is that the chosen soldiers are not happy.

I don't like that one is converted from a soldier to a student, and the other is to learn from a Japanese when a student......

So this is still making trouble layer by layer.

Zhang Chi had to move the three-inch incorruptible tongue again to explain to those soldiers......

"You see, this thing of learning is an oil extractor. Do you know what oil is? It's used to produce gasoline and diesel...... Without this thing, would tanks, cars, airplanes, armored vehicles, and warships run? We can ask for it from the Yankees now, but one day what if the Yankees think we are disobedient and don't give it? Do you still have to apologize to other Yankees? At that time, the Yankees' ear braces fanned over one by one, and we didn't dare to say a word, do you want us to have that day? ”

The group of soldiers couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, they hadn't thought about it so much.

"So, ah......" Zhang Chi said to them earnestly, "Do you know how important this is for you?" It can be said that the survival and future of the entire army depends on you, whether you can find oil or dig it out. As for who taught you Chinese or the Japanese...... have you ever heard of 'mastering the long technique to control the raze'? You are all college students, and the ancients knew that they should learn from the enemy, and you are still thinking about this! ”

The warriors were speechless when they listened.

What Zhang Chi did not tell the fighters was that the focus of their studies was not on finding oil, but on exploitation...... When needed, you can drill directly near Xingren Town.

After sending away these "college student" soldiers, Zhang Chi then turned his attention to the thick pile of materials piled up on the table......

These materials are the various factories and their operations that have just been captured from the Japanese army from all over the northeast, including food processing, plastics, textiles, steel, glass, and so on.

In general, because most of the factories were recovered by the workers' uprising in the anti-Japanese wave, the machines were relatively intact, and even some losses were only minor.

At the same time, the workers who had been working in these factories were very willing to stay in the factories and continue to work, so they were running well...... At this time, working under the rule of the expeditionary force, with the will and the corresponding remuneration, it was completely different from being forced to work by the Japanese army.

For the light industry related to people's livelihood, Zhang Chi doesn't pay much attention to it.

What Zhang Chi learned is that the Japanese implement the system of "one industry and one company", which simply means that an industry is done by one company...... To put it bluntly, it is a monopoly and state-run.

State-owned enterprises do not seem to be conducive to marketization, but they are working well in this special period in the Northeast...... The reason is that it is completely forced by the bayonets of the Japanese army to work the Chinese people, so there is no need to form any competition mechanism at all, and the workers have to work hard under the threat of their lives.

At the same time, "one industry and one company" will reduce the waste of resources caused by competition, so as to form the most effective use of resources.

Zhang Chi is more concerned with military-related heavy industries, such as steel, coal mines, and chemicals.

The most important is of course the arsenal......

Zhang Chi flipped through one book and found that the arsenals built by the Japanese army in the northeast were quite complete, such as a mortar factory, which could produce mortars and grenadiers. There are also gunsmiths, grenade factories...... Basically all the equipment needed by the Japanese army invading China can be produced, even the production line of fighters and bombers.

Of course, this production line is all about the production of relatively backward fighters, mainly for the Chinese battlefield.

Zhang Chi soon discovered a problem...... Although the industry is relatively complete, it is not high in science and technology.

Needless to say, where are industries with high technological content, such as tanks, warships, and advanced fighters, of course, in Japan itself.

It is not surprising that there will be such a situation, at this time China does not have any advanced standard equipment at all, and the main demand of the Japanese army fighting in the front is the army individual equipment, and the amount of demand is still very large, so the northeast will produce army individual equipment in large quantities.

But this is still far from enough for Zhang Chi...... What Zhang Chi hopes is to be able to achieve independence in equipment, that is, not to rely on the supply of the US military, and only in this way can he not be stuck by the US military.

Strictly speaking, at this time, Zhang Chi was already able to achieve equipment independence.

But the problem is that such independence of equipment means that the fighters have to change from the M1 semi-automatic rifle to the 38 big cover...... The fighters also had to be replaced with the old Type 97, which was eliminated even in Japan.

Zhang Chi knew that such a change of outfit was also feasible, because an army relied on the combination of people and weapons, and when the Chinese volunteers fought the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the reason why most of the troops in the early stage were equipped with 38 big covers was because these arsenals were seized from the Japanese and had the ability to produce Japanese-style bullets, and they used such equipment to defeat the United Nations forces led by the United States that were armed to the teeth several times.

But......

Zhang Chi is a modern person, he will not just give up and let the equipment of the army be completely downgraded.

What's more, a large part of the reason why the Chinese volunteers were able to defeat the US army on the Korean battlefield was that the complex terrain of North Korea was not suitable for mechanized troops to fight...... This is also the reason why the volunteers often lose as soon as they cross the 38th parallel and have to withdraw, because the terrain south of the 38th parallel, that is, south Korea, is flat and convenient for transportation, and such terrain is more suitable for the mechanized troops of the US army.

As a result, in the end, this battle could only be tug-of-war near the 38th parallel.

The topography of Northeast China is different from that of North Korea and similar to that of South Korea, and it can even be said that the traffic situation in Northeast China is several times better than that of South Korea...... This kind of terrain is very suitable for mechanized troops to fight, which can be seen from Zhang Chi's "blitzkrieg" to quickly defeat the Japanese troops stationed in the northeast.

Therefore, Zhang Chi knows very well that if the equipment can't keep up, even if it is "independent", it is useless, and it is still controlled by others!
