Chapter 820: Private Wealth for Warships

~Date: ~October 17~

"To win the war, it is not up to our young men to sacrifice for the country, but to rely on the young men of the enemy country to sacrifice for the country!" After Meng Xiang muttered what Barton had said, he sighed lightly and put down the information that Rat Er had collected.

The thick two-foot-high information is all about the current navies of various countries.

At this time, the Japanese navy had expanded more than in history, and its number had jumped from 127,000 before the war to more than 600,000.

The number of US Navy personnel has risen rapidly, exceeding 800,000 and breaking through the million mark.

Meng Xiang vaguely remembered that when the Japanese surrendered 45 years later, the number of the U.S. Navy had exceeded 3 million. At its peak, the Japanese Navy was only 1.7 million.

But even compared with the relatively weak Japanese Navy, the strength figures of the Chinese Navy are even more immature.

Seeing that it is about to enter 43 years, compared with the number of Chinese army exceeding 10 million, the scale of less than 300,000 people in the navy is extremely thin.

The inclusion of the Huaxia National Defense Force in the official establishment is only 120,000 after absorbing the 25,000 personnel of the Central Party, which is also the information obtained by other countries.

What they don't know is that there are still nearly 100,000 pure combat personnel who have not been included in the establishment and are scattered all over the coastal areas of China, the South Seas, and even Africa and the Americas, and they have already met the requirements of a qualified navy soldier.

Of course, this does not include the Marine Corps, which has already reached 200,000 in size.

In addition, there are 50,000 naval cadets from the six major naval academies of Qingdao, Tianjin, Dalian, Shanghai, Fuzhou, and Guangzhou, who will be the backbone of the naval officer system in China in the future.

From the absorption of the Central Party's naval rout in 38 years, from the construction of the base shipyard in 38 years, from the small gunboats of the S-class torpedo boats fighting against the Japanese in inland rivers, to the present nearly five years, Meng Xiang has spared no cost to build a navy that can surprise the eyes of the world's naval powerhouses.

But after five years of energy and the support of the base, Meng Xiang can only do this.

30,000 elites is the greatest achievement he has cultivated. And in his ambitions. The future journey of the Chinese warships is on five continents and four oceans.

But in the face of the vast battlefield of the world, 30,000 elites are really a little less. A few big battles may be almost consumed.

"The chess game in the Americas and Africa is almost arranged, just waiting for a good time. It's easy to only provide weapons, consume other people's lives, and engage in conspiracy! It's a pity that the domestic navy still can't reach out and can't pick the fruit! Meng Xiang sighed in his heart.

He also knows that in this era, human life is not valuable. What is valuable is the weapons and ammunition, military supplies.

It is with the base. It solved the problem of strategic materials that many people have a headache in this era, and it made it so easy for him to squander in this era.

"There is a shortage of talents! Is it really necessary to use the methods of the Russians to bring out the elites from the flames of war? It seems that there are enough warships to sharpen a group of Predators. Meng Xiang had this thought in his heart, but he was instantly sunk by the huge casualties of the Soviet Russians.

In Meng Xiang's heart. Even if every Chinese person is incompetent, he is also a part of China, with a heritage of Chinese national blood, and cannot be easily used as cannon fodder and scattered in the void of history.

30,000 elites may be less, but there are still 50,000 trainees, and nearly 200,000 other officers and soldiers who are honing their training. There may not be hundreds of years of precipitation, but continuous training will continue to give birth to elites.

Now due to the 12 nautical miles along the coast, and even a little farther within the range of the Vanguard cannon. All of them belong to the security zone of China, and the entire Bohai Sea belongs to the inland sea controlled by the Chinese Navy. A large number of fishermen and landlubbers from the Army are taking advantage of these environments to make the transition to a true navy. Perhaps three years later, driven by 30,000 elite tinder, Huaxia will also be able to pull up a million naval troops.

"Steady and steady is king!" Meng Xiang had a little regret in his heart, and still put his mind on sitting and watching the Japanese and American sandpiper clam fight.

Obviously, China's victory in the Diaoyu Islands has provoked the United States more obviously than the Japanese.

The Japanese had calmed down a lot after receiving an order for two Yamato-class battleships.

Among them was the efforts of the Germans to mediate relations between China and Japan.

The Germans were now under pressure from the U.S. Navy to increase the number of troops in Great Britain. Eliminate the Japanese in the Pacific Ocean and drag the footsteps of the Americans a little more.

They already had H-class battleships that were more in line with the German style and temperament, and they were no longer rare in the Yamato-class, and actively contacted the Yamato-class battleships of the copycat company and ceded them to the Japanese.

Meng Xiang originally just wanted to sell one to the Japanese to fill the vacancy of the Musashi. Unexpectedly, the Japanese took the opportunity of reconciling with the cottage company and ordered more than a dozen warships in one go, in addition to the two Yamato-class battleships, aircraft carriers, cruisers, and destroyers were also being purchased on a large scale.

As for the cost of procurement. Meng Xiang's poverty is crazy, and the Japanese will speed up their attack on the Chinese, allowing the Japanese to pay at a discount for the land, houses, mines, factories, rubber plantations, and other real estate in the South Seas received by Western countries such as Britain, the United States, the Netherlands, and France on the occupied land.

When Meng Xiang recovered the land of China, he came into contact with the issue of foreigners' assets very early.

The civilized world of the West is based on the private ownership of property and the sacrosanctity of property.

In addition to the public property of the Russians, there was generally no direct robbery of private property.

Even the Germans, with the exception of a few military-run enterprises. There are always other names to rob. Even the private property of the Jews had to be invented under pretexts.

Because this is the cornerstone of Western civilization, if you shake others, someone will always shake your own.

In the East, it is clear that this provision is a bit more ambiguous. The Japanese can rob with impunity.

However, when the vanguard army dealt with Western countries such as Britain and the United States, it had to abide by such regulations.

Even when the concession was recovered at that time, the property of many foreigners in the concession could not be directly confiscated.

This means that it will turn its face with the Western world in advance, be on the blacklist of the Western world, and lose the opportunity to introduce various technologies and machinery and talents from the Western world.

Americans, in particular, don't care what kind of people are in power and what kind of doctrines they pursue, they only care if the games played by those in power are in line with their rules. It is precisely because the Russians broke this rule of the game that they were boycotted by the Western world.

This also means that the cornerstone of power that Meng Xiang has built for Huaxia will be directly shaken.

Thinking that one day in the future, a sentence of state-owned ownership can make the wealth created by a person in his life come to naught, Meng Xiang can't tolerate his blueprint becoming a few people's graffiti.

The sacred rule of private wealth is still in operation in China. The wealth of many Western countries in China, especially those involving national interests, is basically slowly recovered through various means.

Of course, there are many ways to sell those properties cheaply, and there are even underworld methods and radical strike methods, which are enough to make Westerners vomit out the mines, land, roads, factories, and houses that were once cheaply plundered. There is also a large group of legal people, who slowly confiscated the property that the Westerners had plundered by illegal means.

But on the whole, they are abiding by the rules, and the little money that leaks between the fingers of Meng Xiang's arms boss in the Western world is enough to be used as redemption money and compensation, and it is distributed in place.

There are even some foreign manufacturers who are still thriving in China, and they are regarded as catfish by Meng Xiang, and the fierce fight with the national enterprises with support behind them, coupled with Meng Xiang's unremitting publicity at home and abroad, has dispelled some people's bad impression of Huaxia.

These impressions include the Chinese retaliatory confiscation of Japanese property.

To the Japanese, Meng Xiang has never been polite. In addition to the formalities thrown out through legal means for the sake of covering up face, Huaxia can be said to have taken over all Japanese property in Huaxia, even the property of Japanese nationals whose personal safety could not be completed, but did not give Japan a penny of compensation□ and even actively filed lawsuits to demand various claims from the Japanese for Huaxia's injuries.

In the past two years, China has continuously collected timely information on Japanese massacres, bacteriology, poison gas, and other timeliness, which not only intensified the anti-Japanese hatred in China, but also won the sympathy and support of the mainstream of the West due to the external factors of Japan's challenge to Britain and the United States and other Western worlds.

So all the counterattacks against the Japanese have become a natural special situation.

However, it is only natural that the Japanese have continued to receive many benefits from the Western world in Southeast Asia in the name of war.

In addition to the robbery of Chiguoguo, the cunning of the Japanese had already changed the names of the owners of many riches through various formalities and contracts. They are also in case that one day they will be passive in the ownership of these properties after peace talks with the Western world.

Some of these means are not recognized, while others need to be recognized depending on the ♀ strength of the owners of the property in the future dispute. In later generations, there was no shortage of elites who got rich in the Japanese puppet regime.

Meng Xiang is determined to take all these places into his pocket, but to communicate with the Western world, he cannot avoid the problem of these private wealth. In order to make it more reasonable when arguing in the future, and for the worst ending after the historical changes, Meng Xiang prepared a big stick with one hand, but played with these cheap contracts with the other.

The Japanese don't have much hard currency for gold and silver, and the Japanese are more willing to exchange these stolen private wealth for warships at low prices.

A large area of land in India and Australia and other private wealth were exchanged for 2 Yamato, 2 Dafeng-class aircraft carriers, 2 top-class heavy cruisers, 4 Yangyan-class and 4 Qiuyue-class destroyers.

Huaxia's shield is a little thicker.
