Chapter 962: A Distant War
readx; After the conclusion of the supreme strategic meeting, China began a large-scale military movement, and the main fleet of the navy began to go to sea to assemble, among which the Chinese navy maintained radio silence while carrying out a large-scale maneuver after the second mobile fleet of the main fleet in the Pacific Ocean went to sea, and then completely disappeared from the sight of the US Navy. At the same time www.biquge.info the Chinese Army's Fourth Army stationed in Central Asia is stationed in Iran on a large scale, and the Fourth Army has even moved its headquarters to Tehran, the capital of Iran.
At the same time, the Fifth Army and the Sixth Army, which were deployed in the Siberian region, began large-scale redeployments, and the Seventh Army, which was deployed in the rear, was also urgently stationed.
After all, Chen Jingyun didn't really plan to go to war with Soviet Russia and the United States, he just wanted to put this posture out, and the posture was naturally for people to see.
And there is really only one real operation, and that is to nuke the sea off New York!
On 8 February, Chen Huatian, who had stayed in Turkey for a week, returned to China, and as soon as Chen Huatian returned to China, China officially issued a press conference, announcing that it had reached a number of major military equipment purchase contracts with Turkey, including China providing Turkey with up to 500 tanks and 300 combat aircraft, and at the same time announcing that Turkey had joined the Asian Economic Association at the invitation of China. Although it has not yet been announced that China and Turkey have reached a military alliance agreement, from any point of view, this is already a prelude to Turkey's accession to the Sino-Chinese alliance.
On the same day, Hitler of Germany made a speech on the radio, claiming that China's move was of great significance to world peace, that Germany firmly supported the policy of alliance between China and Turkey, and that Germany would give all possible help if necessary.
In the evening of the same day, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Industry and Commerce jointly issued a statement claiming that China has an inviolable right to free trade. The implication was that Sino-German trade would not be interrupted under pressure from Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union.
At the same time, the United States also issued a statement, claiming that China's move will have a major and irreparable impact on world peace, hoping that China can carefully consider the Sino-German trade issue from the perspective of the security of the people of the world, and at the same time stating that the United States [***] team is ready to deal with any new threat!
By this time, China and the United States had actually completely torn off their faces, and they had the posture of not hesitating to fight for the sake of post-war interests!
At the same time, the Philippines, which is at the forefront of the Sino-US conflict, although there is no sign of any large-scale military conflict between the Chinese and US troops, the two puppet states of the Philippines are in frequent conflicts.
On February 10, on Allah Island in the central Philippines, the island under the control of the South Philippine Axe was subjected to a massive artillery bombardment from the North Philippine Army, and then hundreds of North Philippine Army Defense Forces landed on the island and engaged in a fierce battle with the South Philippine Axe Army on the island!
Both sides of the war are puppet troops under China and the United States, but the weapons and equipment are all high-end goods, the South Philippine Political Axe Army uses the active equipment of the US military, while the North Philippine Defense Force uses Chinese standard equipment.
After China and the United States occupied the Philippines respectively, they each supported a large number of puppet armies, trained by the two [***] officers, and gave them a large amount of military aid at a near-delivery price.
After all, China and the United States have not directly torn their faces before, but there are frequent military conflicts between the two Philippine political axes, you say he is a rebel, he says you are a puppet army, so the civil war in the Philippines has actually broken out before the surrender, but because both sides do not have large-scale navies, so they can only conduct small-scale air battles and island battles, although the impact is there, but there is no uncontrollable large-scale military conflict.
And China and the United States are also using this model to test each other's bottom line!
Military conflict broke out again on the Philippine side, and in the Middle East, Britain and the United States have already announced blockade sanctions against Turkey, the Allied Mediterranean Navy has sent a large number of warships and aircraft to try to block Turkey's maritime connection with the Balkans, and even Soviet Russia has sent a weak Black Sea Fleet to cooperate with the blockade.
In the past, the Allies tried to threaten Turkey to blockade it, but in order to avoid Turkey completely falling to Germany or China, and Turkey's army strength is still a lot, so it has maintained restraint in the past few years, but now although Germany is about to lose the European war, and Turkey has the intention of completely turning to China, so the Allies are not too scrupulous, and are ready to completely block Turkey's land communication links with the European continent, and completely cut off Turkey's material transportation channels to Germany.
Turkey, the Middle East, the Indian Ocean, the Philippines, the Indonesian archipelago, and the entire Pacific Ocean, China and the United States are already showing signs of a full-scale military confrontation and a large-scale war at any time!
Under such circumstances, many people around the world are panicking, especially ordinary people in China and the United States, who are afraid of a real fight.
Not many ordinary people really like war, especially a war that does not bring benefits to themselves and even threatens to destroy their lives completely! This is true for the American people, but also for the Chinese people. Those fanatical militants who shout about so-called doctrine or the nation belong to a very small minority group in every country, and the vast majority of the people still hope to live in peace and stability, and a happy life for the family is the driving force for them to struggle in this world.
Isms, countries, and nations are so far away from ordinary people that they don't care about them and can't care about them.
Why did ordinary people in China and the United States support the wars that China and the United States had waged in the early stages of war, including China's declaration of war on Russia, or the declaration of war by the United States on Ben and Germany? The simple reason is that these wars do not cause any harm to their real lives, whether it is China or the United States, the war is far away from home, and ordinary people do not even feel that the war is going on, at most they just sit at home and read the news about the war in the newspapers.
Although both China and the United States will carry out wartime economic mobilization to varying degrees, this is more limited to the military industry, but has little impact on light industry and agriculture related to people's livelihood, and even to some extent, a large amount of military material production has created more jobs for these two countries, so that the people's income level has been greatly increased compared with before World War II.
Far from the war, the most standard way of life for them in this era is to sit at home and drink coffee or tea, and then look through the news about the war in the newspaper, praise if they see their army winning, scold if the front line is defeated, and then put down the newspaper and go to work, although their factories are still producing military supplies, but there will never be any situation where they are obliged to work overtime for free in order to support the war, even if you want to do this, the union will never allow it. Now the trade unions are seriously dissatisfied with the strict control of wage increases by the labor committee, and they also work overtime for free.
The war is really far away from them!
Their support for the war is not only far enough away from the war, but at the same time these wars can even bring them certain benefits, a large number of military material production has created a large number of jobs, the unemployment rate in the United States has dropped to a few tenths of a percent, this data has reached a negligible level, and China due to its large population, the simple working class is not much, and the best reflection of the rapid development of China's economy in the past few years of war, the people's life is getting better and better is naturally the rapid improvement of urbanization, Countless peasants began to leave their hometowns and take crowded trains to major cities with the dream of making money, taking Shanghai as an example, in 1941, the number of floating population had already exceeded the number of permanent residents, and a large number of peasants migrated to the city to work, which led to the rapid expansion of Shanghai's urban area, and at the same time, a large number of factories in Shanghai obtained sufficient labor resources.
This situation is very similar to the early industrialization stage of Britain and the early reform and opening up of China in later history, and it is also a necessary stage for the normal development of an industrial country: a large number of agricultural people are transferred to industrial production, which is manifested in the rapid acceleration of urbanization!
The large production of military supplies, coupled with the fact that China occupied many places to obtain a large number of cheap raw materials, and of course, more importantly, more industrial products dumping in the market, and these are the driving forces that allowed China's economy to take off in World War II, and the economy is better, the living materials are abundant, and the people's incomes are rising, these things are good things for ordinary people.
War is far away from them, and war can bring them benefits. These two are the main reasons why the people of China and the United States supported the early war!
But when the war is separated from these two points, then it is unacceptable to the ordinary people, and once the war is fought at the doorstep, once the war leads to a shortage of living materials and cannot keep the people living in peace, there will not be many ordinary people who will continue to support the war at this time.
Maybe someone is going to say at this time that this is a necessary stage for the rejuvenation of China, and this is a necessary sacrifice for the country and the nation!
That large number of people will retort: What is the real goal of China's revival? Isn't it so that the people can live a prosperous life? In that case, why sacrifice the interests of the people?
In the eyes of fanatical militants and the seriousness of ordinary people, the goal of China's rejuvenation is different, perhaps in the eyes of some radical generals in the military, sweeping the world and dominating the earth is the goal of China's rejuvenation, but in the seriousness of some political axe economic officials, China's economy has taken off, and China's control of the global economy is the goal of China's rejuvenation. In the eyes of the vast majority of the people, as long as their lives are getting better and better, that is the goal of China's rejuvenation, and everything else is false.
