"Huaxia has discovered a big oil field!"

When Li Qiwei's report was just handed over to Marshall, who was going back to China, Huaxia suddenly broke the news.

The Daqing Oilfield discovered by Huang Jiqing and his team has become the focus of the world nearly 20 years ahead of schedule.

According to the estimated annual output of more than 3 million tons provided by the Huaxia United Government, it is enough to solve the problem of oil consumption in Huaxia at this time. Coupled with the disclosure of Zhongyuan Oilfield and Yumen Oilfield, Huaxia suddenly took off the hat of poor oil.

"Congratulations!" U.S. Secretary of State Hess's congratulations were a little sour.

The Americans came to participate in the celebration of the Chinese coalition government not only for the sake of military affairs. If China is poor and weak in the past, American aid will come in large quantities. But the strength of China's performance made Americans worry that the Chinese were rushing to pick peaches from Southeast Asia.

At the beginning of its outward development, suppressed by old empires such as Britain, the Americans were more adept at using economic and cultural ideological infiltration to deal with those who fancied.

With the establishment of the Chinese coalition government, there was a unified and stable economic environment and a unified market was formed. Infiltrating the Chinese economy and earning the greatest economic benefits from China has become one of the biggest goals of their trip.

In recent years, the Vanguard Army has sent more than 10,000 students to the United States, and in addition to the many American-sponsored student elites such as Tsinghua Garden, the pro-American people have gathered to make the Americans have a very good impression in the minds of the Chinese people, at least much stronger than Britain, France and other countries.

In many respects, the United States, which has always advertised itself as a paradise of freedom, has an innate advantage, and is even more popular among the Chinese people than Germany, which implemented centralized Nazi rule.

However, they did not know that the leader of China at this time was an outlier who was deeply disgusted with the hegemony of the Americans in later generations.

The Americans came here to open the way for the import of American goods and the exploitation of Chinese resources.

With the outbreak of the European war, many American manufacturers have been resurrected, and orders have been sprinkled all over the world. But at this time, Huaxia's products have also become popular goods in Europe under the advance planning of Meng Xiang. Although it is not as large as the Americans, it can always bite the big cake.

The demand for war does not cover all economic products, and now China, a country that is still in stability, has undoubtedly become one of the largest dumping grounds for non-war materials, especially when Huaxia industry is just beginning to rise.

The Americans needed to make money and suppress China, a potential rival, and market access began to wrestle between the United States and China around the time of the introduction of China's new tariffs.

In recent years, the customs controlled by the vanguard army have not only improved the import system, but also controlled export items, especially the export of resources.

At the time when Britain and France were in the midst of war, the vanguard army had gradually recovered many resource-based mines and rights of way, and even if some nail households, bandits and Japanese greatly assisted them, they would have been able to deal with them easily. Over the years, foreign capital may have eaten dividends, but the absolute power has been in the hands of the Chinese people.

In addition to being mostly monopolized by large state-type enterprises that represent a large number of citizens, some are controlled by private enterprises that distribute licenses to operate.

In order to regulate this disordered interest, the control of resource classes is necessary.

Of course, what Americans value is not those renewable resources that can be easily exported, but mineral deposits such as tungsten ore and antimony ore, in which China has an absolute advantage.

Through the control of copycat companies and umbrella companies and other shadow companies, Meng Xiang has controlled tungsten mines in Spain and Portugal through various means, plus China accounts for half of the world's tungsten ore, and has waved the baton of the world's tungsten mines.

The price of tungsten ore has soared from US$75 per tonne to an all-time high of US$1.

This time, however, the target was not only the Germans, but also the British and Americans.

At the same time, since 08, the Huaxia antimony mine, which has been monopolizing more than half of the world's production, has also begun to rise sharply.

At the same time, with the receipt of the Yangjiazhuzi molybdenum mine in Liaoning Province from the Japanese, and the discovery of the Jinduicheng molybdenum mine in Huaxian County, Shaanxi, coupled with the influence of the shadow company on the molybdenum mine in the United States, Huaxia took the opportunity to leverage the price leverage of molybdenum ore, which was only consumed by the world at this time, which was only more than 10,000 tons.

Although Americans reacted quickly, the loss of a large amount of wealth was inevitable.

The vanguard continued to infiltrate Germany, Great Britain, and the United States, knocking down a lot of good things. You know, these things are harder than gold right now.

The Americans are keen on this part of the resources of the Chinese people, and they can't help but start to put pressure on related issues.

By this time, Americans had begun to pick up the stick of oil, whose prices continued to climb with the outbreak of World War II.

After all, although Meng Xiang smuggled a lot of oil and the production of the base at this time, the gap was large and he needed to cover people's eyes, so Meng Xiang didn't mind using cheap oil, so Huaxia's oil still imported more than one million oil from Britain and the United States every year

Originally, with the outbreak of the war, oil began to rise sharply, and at this time, the Americans added other additional conditions, which made Meng Xiang throw out the trump card in his hand in advance.

At this time, Meng Xiang was already full of confidence that he could protect Huaxia's own oil fields, and whoever came to plunder could unceremoniously fight back.

The news of China's self-produced oil smashed the Americans' hammer at once, and even the price of oil provided by Britain and the United States was affected.

Of course, now, Huaxia still imports a lot of things from the United States.

The lack of petroleum refining equipment and technology has left the refinery workshop of the base, which is simply unable to meet the supply of various oils.

Although China has established a primary industrial system, the disparity in quantity makes it impossible to meet the huge domestic demand. And in many aspects, it is too late to wait, and the introduction and absorption is undoubtedly a shortcut to catch up quickly.

While China is trying to squeeze the value of Germany and other European countries, it is not suitable to turn the other cheek with the United States, the largest industrial country.

The Americans, too, knew what such news meant, and after careful consideration, immediately retracted their aggressive posture.

It seems that because of this news, the two sides have suddenly eased up to the previous stage of free trade.

The temptation failed, and the Americans only regretted it. Backed by the world's largest industrial system, they can crush the competition of the Chinese people with the most powerful industrial machinery products.

But it wasn't they who reacted the most strongly when they heard the news.

The Germans have the help of Qinghuo Company and Shanzhai Company, and they are not yet troubled by the lack of oil for the time being. And for them, oil from far away in Asia is difficult to quench their thirst from far away. They also congratulated their invisible allies more sincerely, and didn't care too much.

The British didn't care so much at this time, even the oil fields in Southeast Asia were lost, and the oil resources in the Middle East were pressed by the Americans, and they didn't get too excited.

Huaxia is getting farther and farther away from their direct sphere of influence.

"Yaga, there is oil in China!" At this time, the most frustrated people were undoubtedly the Japanese.

Especially when they learned that this oil field was located in the territory of the puppet Manchurians, this frustration and frustration caused more than a dozen people to die in the abdomen of the Japanese mainland on the same day.

In the days when the Chinese people cheered and celebrated, it really made the Japanese all depressed.

"Huaxia has its own divine blessing! The little devil's bullshit aunt doesn't work at all! Although this kind of rumor in China has not affected the spirit of the Japanese too much, all kinds of coincidences have cast a shadow on the hearts of the Japanese.

"We should encourage the Manchu emperor to reclaim his territory!" Many people in the Japanese top leadership have already begun to raise the idea of Fu Yi, who had fled to Korea, and demanded that the Japanese mission, which was still running into walls in China, return immediately and not sign a document to return the puppet Manchurians to China.

Greed had made them deliberately ignore the appearance of the previously invincible locust army in front of the vanguard army. A large oil field stirred up fond memories of the puppet Manchurians.

"Don't be impatient! You know, our main focus now is in the south. Let's not forget that we already have millions of tons of oil fields per year in the south. Hideki Tojo could only stiffen up at this time, "Now that the Americans have assembled a large fleet, it has threatened our harvest in the south. We need to wake them up completely. When we have brought the Americans to the negotiating table, we can go back and decide with the Chinese for supremacy in Asia. ”

Hideki Tojo has failed in Huaxia one after another, and if it weren't for the smooth southward strategy, I am afraid it would have fallen long ago. He could only maintain the interests of the southbound forces first, and put Japan's focus on the south, which had already begun to reap the benefits.

"We'll be back!" Hideki Tojo did not forget to reassure the forces that were difficult to give up the puppet Manchurians. But in the blink of an eye, he was attracted by the news from the South Pacific.

The Americans are coming.

A large fleet led by two battleships of Iowa was enough to threaten the security of the Japanese Combined Fleet in the South Seas, to hinder Japan's offensive on the Australian mainland, and to threaten the return of the riches that the Japanese had plundered from the South.

This time, because of the tragedy of the Americans' Pearl Harbor, the Americans' resistance to the Japanese army was greatly reduced, and even the submarine forces that harassed the Japanese cargo ships were affected. What's more, the Japanese also grew a lot of eyes in the confrontation with the Huaxia submarine. In addition, the Pioneer Army submarines were restricted by the protection of the Chinese in Nanyang and did not participate in the attack, so that the Japanese brought more booty back to the mainland.

With the counterattack of the US Navy, this is bound to be greatly affected.

Hideki Tojo was counting on the windfall profits of the war in the south to bring him the stability of power, so he naturally did not dare to take it lightly.

So the Japanese Combined Fleet blocked the American support fleet near the Fiji Islands.
