Chapter 414: Half Moon's Changes
Since the withdrawal of the central army from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the forces gathered in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have also been mixed. In addition to himself and the puppet regime, the soldiers of the Central Army who had been defeated after Nanjing at that time, as well as the guerrillas sent by the Central Army to the past, were also active in the vicinity.
Compared with the northeast region, the land of fish and rice in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions is more economically easier to feed the army. Therefore, in the past, most of the weapons that Meng Xiang delivered to Rat Yi were weapons, ammunition and medicines. Food and everything are provided locally. Later, after the establishment of a sub-base there, the shortage of ammunition was alleviated, and the army was treated well, unlike other mountain kings who lived by plundering, so the army expanded rapidly.
But if you want to stabilize the territory, you can't rely on the army alone.
In the area of Tianmu Mountain, for a long time, he did not have the energy to occupy it, so he gathered a large number of anti-Japanese forces. If they want to survive, they must collect taxes and even loot. The largest in this place is the team of the rat one, but the other forces either use righteousness, or nostalgia, or faith, and each demarcates its own circle of influence. There are often fires and things happening with each other.
However, these people are still long-sighted, and they know that they are not easy to provoke, so they generally don't provoke. However, as the first column of Rat One expanded outward, they also felt the pressure, and naturally there were some small movements.
There are too many such things, and it is not appropriate to deal with them by the army alone. Meng Xiang also saw the maturity of the base there, so he also launched the subsistence allowance policy there.
No matter what era, the people are indeed the best to coax. As soon as the subsistence allowance came out, the people's hearts immediately leaned towards the vanguard army. Not only did many people join the army, but even some personnel from other forces on the basis were also squeezed out. According to Meng Xiang's instructions, Rat Yi also voted on the ownership of some disputed areas in the form of boiling. As a result, the surname naturally prevailed in favor of the vanguard army.
Although they used to play the signboard of the vanguard army, there were still some differences with the vanguard army, and at this time, as soon as the subsistence allowance came out, the people also understood that they were one with the vanguard army in the north. Many people who planned to join the vanguard army, but were suffering from the blockage of the road, and the devils blocked them directly threw themselves into the rats. The implementation of the subsistence allowance policy can be regarded as a positive identity for them.
People of other forces lamented. For them, they can only be helpless.
Compared to the war, the people are well-armed, and there are more machine guns in the ranks than rifles in some of the ranks that hang out the title of commander, and those submachine guns are more numerous than in some teams. While many teams were still counting bullets and shooting cold guns, Rat Yi, who had been replenished by the base, and their team had already begun to advance the barrage of shells.
Compared with finance, people throw a lot of money, and the treatment of each soldier is better than that of the original Central Army. There is also a pension policy that is eye-catching.
What kind of consciousness could the soldiers of that era have and directly change their ways. As for the subsistence allowance policy, even the local people support the vanguard army, where is there a foothold for other people? Some teams are rapidly decreasing in size, and some teams are even merged into Rat One's team entirely. The first column of Rat One is also blowing up balloons, exceeding 200,000.
Therefore, during this period, rats and their base areas also need a process of absorption and digestion. Some middle- and low-level officers in the war zone on Meng Xiang's side are also constantly changing to that side to help Rat Yi stabilize the situation there.
During the turbulent period of the area occupied by the vanguard army in the past half month, the base area there became more and more solid. There is no need for Meng Xiang to be too worried. Most of Meng Xiang's attention was focused on the situation abroad.
On March 15, history still pushed Czechoslovakia into the flames of war.
In just 18 hours, the Germans were speeding into Prague, and the German flag fluttered over the castles of successive Bohemian kings in the wind that whispered with the Czechs. In some of the streets, there were still people hiding inside, wailing and crying. The fall of the state has quickened with the pace of modern warfare.
Large areas of the Czech Republic were occupied by the Germans, but there were still many people who were unwilling to serve the Germans and wanted to leave the Czech Republic.
"Huaxia? It's backward there! It's a barbaric place! They all had women's braids on their heads. Boros looked at Thomas, who was about to pack for a trip, and couldn't help but laugh.
Thomas ignored him, and this Bobbs laughed loudly on the street loudly on the street when the Germans entered the city, without the slightest sense of shame.
Li Wenyuan couldn't help but retort: "That braid is not a Chinese tradition, when our ancestors were still using silk, most of Europe only had a few leaves around their buttocks. We have a glorious past in China, and her future will be even better. Now Huaxia has become a different look! ”
"Now? Now it seems that I collect taxes on that land, right? Bobbs sneered, saying that many people know about his affairs in Huaxia, but the degree of interest is not as good as the taste of three meals.
Li Wenyuan clenched his fists all of a sudden, but when he saw Thomas next to him looking into the distance a little blankly, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "Watch your door, the Germans are here." ”
In the distance, the sound of German leather boots echoed at the corner of the street, and Boros couldn't help but shrink his head slightly and look there, and when the footsteps of the Germans were far away again, he turned his head to look, Li Wenyuan and Thomas were already far away.
This time, the Germans invaded the Czech Republic, and Meng Xiang arranged it early. According to the network of relations that had been arranged half a year ago, the vanguard army took away more than 200 specialists of various kinds from the Czech Republic at one time, plus the recruited engineers, senior technicians, and their families, and transported more than 5,000 people in total. The secret recipe for the armor of that battleship was also easily obtained, and after the destruction of the country, many things were depreciated.
Some Czechs cashed in on their escape by selling their factory machinery and even new technology at a low price. Meng Xiang also prepared 50 million cash in advance, and through the shadow company, he bought a large number of new machines from the Czechs. After all, the price of the Czechs dealing with the Czechs and dealing with the Czechs to the Chinese is definitely not the same.
In the last month, 100 million marks were spent from the Germans to buy goods, some of which were purchased from the Germans in the Czech Republic, so the Germans did not embarrass the vanguard army, and more than 5,000 Czechs were smoothly transported back to China. The passing German convoy drove directly past his patrol. In the face of the Vanguard Army, a large customer that can throw hundreds of millions of marks, the Germans will never give up. As long as it is not the delivery of weapons and ammunition, the Germans always turn a blind eye to their own accusations.
They didn't care about the Czechs in the vanguard, they thought that the Germans had the best engineers and specialists of all kinds, and they didn't look down on the Czechs. Like the vanguard of the Jews, they did not hold back too much, just to keep them out of sight of the disgusted Jews, and of course they had to keep some of their money.
The Jews were being sent one after another to the territory of the Pioneer Army, and now there were nearly 100,000 Jews on the territory of the Pioneer Army. They were divided into more than forty settlements, spread over the place. Meng Xiang was absolutely not worried about these Jews who had gotten together. Their religion may not affect the Chinese people, but their money bags can allow the Chinese people to sell their souls.
They have been studying finance for many years, and some of the means are far from being something that Meng Xiang can prevent with this half bottle of vinegar. The financiers among these people were individually invited by Meng Xiang to serve as teachers and professors at universities, and their financial speculation was restricted.
It should be said that the rich Jews went abroad early. The role of these 100,000 Jews far outweighs their harm. They were followed by a group of young apprentices, and even though they didn't understand the language, their ability to imitate was very good. Their skills were constantly being accumulated in the minds of the young people, and the ingenuity of the Jews was recorded in the university classrooms.
At least 20,000 teachers appeared among the 100,000 Jews, and more than 100,000 young students were brought out at one time.
In the same way, the Czechs were divided into five places to live. Everyone is followed by a group of young students, not asking for warmth, taking care of life, and of course, a group of good helpers when working. This also made the Czechs very satisfied with this, and before they knew it, they had more things to teach at hand.
"It seems that Poland also has some talent." Meng Xiang looked at the list of Czechs, and said with a smile.
Polish officers were all drawn from the ruling class, and at the same time they were recruited from the elite of various industries, but after the Soviet-German partition of Poland, Stalin gave an order, Katyn buried alive 14,700 Polish officers, and 11,000 intellectuals and civil servants and policemen in a civilian team.
Meng Xiang remembered this, and unconsciously started their idea. With the flames of World War II, there will inevitably be more talents running out. But most of these will not come to China. High-level talents have fled to the United States, which has not been affected by the war. Compared with the United States, which is also of the Caucasian race, has relatively close cultural customs, and considers itself to be a civilized world, it is still in the midst of war, and China, which is considered to be barbaric and backward for most of the region, is definitely not a suitable place to live. Even if they do research, they don't have anything to ask for, and they don't have many people to communicate with, so it's no wonder that they are willing to come.
Meng Xiang also thought that he didn't have the anger of Wang Ba, so those people would run around as soon as they heard about research and money. They still have families, and they have careers, and unless they are the ones who are down, or the Jews who are being excluded from all over Europe, or the Czechs who are broken by the country, there are not many people who usually come.
After inviting those celebrities in his memory to repeatedly hit the wall, Meng Xiang had already experienced the contempt of the white race for Huaxia, and couldn't help but secretly set a plan to cultivate his own talents.
"In terms of quantity, we will strive to reach the level of 100,000 college students in school this year, and in another 10 years, when compulsory education has achieved initial results, we will strive to reach the number of 500,000 college students!" Meng enjoyed the comparison of more than 7 million admitted freshmen in later generations, and felt that the 500,000 seemed to be less, but after thinking about it for a long time, this was already a lot of pressure on Huaxia. Even if a large number of high school graduates were born at that time, the shortage of teachers would continue for many years. This can only be the helplessness of the times.
Quantity alone is not enough, and a group of craftsmen is not as useful as a master.
"Haven't you ever eaten pork, haven't you ever seen a pig run? The role of the master is first embodied in the direction of a field. Although I don't know the scientific principles, the main direction of development can be pointed out to the research groups. If you don't take detours, you can naturally surpass the Soviet Union and catch up with the United States. ”
It is a long process to catch up with the United States, and although Meng Xiang has such expectations, he maintains his sanity and does not have the impatience to develop the Great Leap Forward. Science is the most intolerant of sloppiness, the foundation is not stable, there are fewer branches and leaves, and it is likely to miss the fruitful fruit on a branch. With the base to share the huge military expenditure, it is natural that more resources and funds can be saved to develop people's livelihood and science and technology.
In this era, the turmoil of the war has begun, and there are not many people who can build the domestic economy in a stable manner.
The March War was not only over the Czech Republic, Albania was also targeted by the Italians.
Seeing that the Germans easily picked the fruits of the Czech victory, while the British and French seemed to have only Jingsui, the Italians were also moved. In order to boost morale, the Italians found a soft persimmon and picked Albania. Mussolini directly offered to protect Albania, but his king rejected it outright.
Mussolini, in order to assert his authority and desperately need a war to get rid of the unfavorable situation in Ethiopia, had Albania in mind to attack.
Meng Xiang did not pay attention to this matter in later generations, he only knew that the Italians had always been noodles in World War II, and even in Ethiopia, they had been disgraced. After hearing that Albania was being targeted by the Italians, Meng Xiang thought that it was the butterfly wings that stirred up the cool breeze again.
As for Albania, when I was in school in the past, Mengxiang was almost confused with Algeria in Africa, so I also paid attention to it. This European country was one of China's closest partners in later generations, but of course it was all piled up on gratuitous aid. 10 billion yuan was an astronomical amount in that era when wages were generally only a dozen yuan.
Meng Xiang didn't know the news in advance, and even if he knew, he would stand by and watch. He won't reach out for things that don't have a benefit.
He was more concerned about the situation in Spain. Franco's army took control of Madrid on the 27th.
Meng Xiang finally led to changes abroad. In the original history, it was one day earlier than the 28th. The copycat company bought a lot of munitions, and the initial reinforcement of the Germans in advance helped.
With the war in Spain, Europeans paid more attention there, which also made the vanguard army and himself fight with a much smaller audience. After all, Spain is more likely to influence future changes in Europe.
Meng Xiang also knew about Franco's victory for a long time, and he also pressed the treasure early on this cattle man who had only studied for 36 years. Not only did copycat companies sell, but umbrella companies also came forward to pull relations, after all, many countries in South America have a lot of ties with Spain. Spain also had a number of colonies in Africa. The most typical is Western Sahara. This Western Sahara, which was founded much later in the world, was rich in resources. Phosphate rock and iron ore are both Meng Xiang who doesn't want to let go.
The reshuffle opportunity of World War II is also an opportunity for the rise of China. The strategic vision of the traverser made Meng Xiang start the global layout early.
There are only three ways to develop in the future.
The easiest way is to occupy it directly, and with the huge population base of China, it will not be as difficult to digest and absorb as other countries.
The other is political control, and the cost of direct occupation of some key positions and resources is too high, and the gains outweigh the losses. Then grasp their political situation, and you have the whole country. There are many variables, even in Americans' backyards. But if you add the careful cultivation of spies, the birth of a puppet state is not too difficult.
Aladdin's new tribe has begun to bear fruit. They have occupied the area around the Saudi sub-base, and they are expanding to more land. In this barren desert area, Aladdin's armed forces are the most powerful, and their reputation is getting louder and louder. A few days ago, the Shah of Iran, Pahlavi, married a princess of Egypt and sent an invitation to Aladdin.
On the other hand, the cost of political control is too high to be worth or cannot be fully controlled, and sometimes economic means are undoubtedly the most convenient. The sanctity of the private property of the Western system, under the various background signboards of various shadow companies, can praise the harmony of the world to the greatest extent.
The spy production of the base has been continuous, one-third of which is used for the construction of various shadow companies, one-third is used for the cultivation of political circles, and only the remaining one-third is used as ordinary spies to spy on intelligence.
With the spying's change of face, as long as the location is reached, there is no need to spy on, and the intelligence will naturally come. Just like the twelfth is fighting at this time, he is at the core of the intelligence front against the vanguard army. The information from the Vanguard Army has made him rise in status, and he is about to become an expert in studying the Vanguard Army. Even Kenji Dohihara's tricks against the vanguard army need to be polished by his hands. This is equivalent to putting various plans directly in front of the vanguard army.
At this time, the twelfth sent another piece of information, and Kenji Dohihara couldn't help it and was about to make a third move.
