Chapter 8 Tune
Speaking of shocking those people, Yang Rui laughed badly - after lamenting the complete change in the face of history and the complete loss of the ability to grasp the current situation, he found that he had something in his hands that others could not match, that is, to understand the direction of the world's technology tree, and the impact of the science and technology tree on history, military and politics.
Yang Rui's general idea is: in the war to interfere with the Italian invasion of Abyssinia, a large number of Chinese versions of RPG-3 with an effective range of 45 meters will be thrown, and in the Spanish Civil War, the Chinese version of PRG-6 that is about to be finalized will be thrown out, so that countries around the world will be convinced of the uselessness of tanks; If World War II really breaks out, Guderian's armored division will face a stormy blow from the French and Polish infantry PRG-6, and see if the blitzkrieg can still flash? At that time, Germany, which started the war, will either be defeated or imploded, and the whole world will soon return to calm anyway, and US imperialism will continue to be isolated from the Americas.
As for the RPG being imitated by the enemy to threaten their own tanks, anyway, FRP and ceramic armor have been developed, the former because ......of the low price, the Navy has applied it to Changning, Yongning replacement aircraft carriers, plus the single-layer hangar to a double-layer hangar to reduce the armor protection area This factor, the most criticized center of gravity of the armored aircraft carrier, the problem of fragile support has been completely solved, and the Navy claims that as long as the mother is installed in the future, not the naked mother. (Although the construction of armored aircraft carriers still has the problem of costly and labor-intensive, the problem of labor-intensive has been completely solved by referring to the newly drafted wartime shipbuilding plan; And the cost of money, in terms of the number of two short can improve the survivability of the other fifteen. This is an insurance deal that can be done with a stroke, after all, an aircraft carrier is not a disposable chopstick. The loss of one less is equal to the construction of one and a half new); The latter is extremely expensive, but it is not necessarily impossible to use it in small quantities on tank armor. Besides, in real combat, individual anti-tank weapons simply cannot stop the flood of armor.
Pei Shoutong heard that Yang Rui was going to throw out the second kick, but he didn't think that he even threw out the RPF-6, a new generation of anti-tank weapons that has not yet been finalized, so first, there was no reaction. He was still entangled in the strategy against the United States, and after a clear cough, he still asked: "Sir, the Americans have never let go of the shooting down of the US pilot, and during this period of time, the call for the passage of the second Carl Vinson Act has become louder and louder, and there has been a lot of discussion about the London Naval Disarmament Treaty Conference in the second half of the year. The dismantling of the China-Japan-DPRK alliance is destined to be a universally accepted precondition for negotiations, and there is some discussion in our country. Many people think that the alliance should be abandoned, and our side is ......"
Listening to Bei Shoutong's words, Yang Rui just tilted his head and smoked. Seeing him like this, Pei Shoutong had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "...... How should we deal with it? ”
"What else is there to deal with, dismantling the alliance is only a superficial thing, what the Americans really want to do is actually to undermine the Triple Customs Union and the increasingly close financial forces of the two countries, and ultimately prevent the issuance of the Asian dollar." Yang Rui snuffed out the cigarette fiercely, and his gaze became a little sharp. "Some people are used to being slaves! It's like someone says to him, "If you throw the gun away, I won't hit you, and he throws the gun away." Then the man said again. You hand over the money and don't beat you, and then the minions hand over the money again. In short, as long as others scare him. Even if he could keep himself safe, he would rather live under the charity of others. ”
He lit another cigarette and let out a long exhale. Yang Rui restrained his previous dissatisfaction and said very calmly: "The establishment of national self-confidence is not a momentary meeting. It is not something that can be supported by a few people. The negotiations in the second half of the year will be left to those people in the Inspector's Yuan. If they are willing to give up the alliance, then give up the alliance, and if they are not willing to give up the alliance, then it will be our business after that. ”
Unexpectedly, Yang Rui actually had this kind of thought, and Bei Shoutong exclaimed, "Sir, if this is the case, they are likely to agree to the Americans' request!" ”
"What's the use of their promises? Will the Americans accede to their request? Yang Rui sneered, "Of course, if they will kneel when they are beautiful, then we will have nothing to say." If there are such people in the pass, then we are still good alone, and there are all our places outside the Great Wall, and it is a big deal that from now on we will not be in the pass. ”
Yang Rui's words were to the point, Pei Shoutong thought for a while and then said: "If we really give up the alliance under the pressure of the United States, Japan will be very angry, and our previous efforts will be in vain." ”
"So what?" Yang Rui thought of Song Jiaoren. Fortunately, he was killed by Chen Qimei's faction, but with his intention to incite populism, the Revival Society will kick him down sooner or later. What is it! The low-end trick of holding public opinion hostage is also used, and he is still worried about the country and the people, and he donated all his annual salary, which is really damned!
"If we abandon the alliance, the United States will destroy Japan if it does not win over Japan. And after the war between Japan and the United States starts, they may still stand idly by and watch, hoping that the Americans will also promote democracy in our country after the occupation of Japan. Pei Shoutong has been in Beijing for a long time, and he knows very well some people in the Inspectorate of Suspicion, especially the New Kuomintang after the death of Song Jiaoren, and many of these people are students studying in the United States, and they are certainly not happy to join the Sino-Japanese alliance for the sake of democracy and freedom, and they wish that the US Marines would land on Shanghai and Shanghai again.
"And how many such people are in the Suspect's Academy?" Yang Rui said with a smile: "To tell the truth, if most of the people in the Inspectorate are really determined to give up Japan and collude with the United States, then what is the value of our people's hard work? Don't underestimate the wisdom of a merchant. We, ah, basically gave them all the power, what are they not satisfied with? Would smart people in power not know the importance of the Sino-Japanese alliance? We don't want the emperor to be in a hurry, the eunuchs are in a hurry, there will always be people who stand up and play against them. ”
"But what if these people are bought?" Pei Shoutong is still not at ease.
"In the past, the so-called 'representatives of the people' would be bribed, and now the representatives of the Inspectorate are all figures with heads and faces in various provinces, who can buy them all? Those who will approve of abandoning Japan are only those who rely on newspaper fees and university professors' salaries to pay taxes, and they are homeless and unemployed, so they naturally hope that the Americans will help them to reach a higher level. To put it bluntly, the country is worth more than it used to be, and they plan to sell her for a good price. ”
Yang Rui said the mouth cannon of this dynasty. Thinking about Qingliu at the end of the Ming Dynasty, I suddenly felt that it was not enough to just pay taxes as a qualification for the election. The remuneration of university professors is extremely high, and some of the university professors are former Geng international students. In order to realize the **** of the whole people, democracy and freedom, these people will be 100% the party led by US imperialism.
"Ji Mei, you are a soldier, so don't interfere in government affairs. The choice of the Auditor's Court is our choice. Yang Rui finally said.
Yang Rui explained like this, and Bei Shoutong fell silent, but judging from his stubborn expression, it was obvious that he hadn't figured it out. When Yang Rui was leisurely drinking tea, he finally said angrily: "Sir, we must not watch those people destroy this country!" ”
"So what are you going to do?" Yang Rui said gently. "Jump out and take over the government and declare a national military rule?"
"It's not!" Seeing Yang Rui staring at him, Bei Shoutong shook his head again, he didn't know what to do.
"For more than 2,000 years, before Rome ruled the world, there was an ancient Carthaginian kingdom in North Africa, and they controlled the entire Mediterranean trade at that time, and they were extremely wealthy. Although there were no steamships at that time, the Mediterranean Sea was still too small. Rome and Carthage eventually went to war over a contingency event. The war lasted for twenty-three years, with heavy casualties on both sides, but in the end the Romans withstood it, and Carthage had to admit defeat and pay reparations. From then on, sea power in the Mediterranean was held by Rome, not Carthage. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Rui looked at Bei Shoutong, "Ji Mei." Do you know what really determines the outcome of a war? ”
"Really decide ......" The motto of the former Revival Army was science and art, but Yang Rui asked. Obviously not the answer, he thought for a moment. Shaking his head, he said, "Please also ask Mr. to explain your doubts." ”
Unexpectedly, there would be such a teacher-student answer decades later, Yang Rui smiled and said: "What really determines the outcome of the war is not the generals, not technology, not tactics, not art, what really determines the outcome of the war is who is more barbaric than the two sides." ”
"Barbarism?" Pei Shoutong didn't want to be the answer.
"Savagery is not ferocious, it is not who is more ruthless than whom, who kills more than whom. Because ruthlessness is only temporary, it is really barbaric to be ruthless from the inside out, to the enemy and to oneself. A civilized person, if he fights, he will not want to fight anymore, they want peace, but a truly barbaric person, he hates peace in his bones, in his opinion, killing and being killed is the norm, and peace is perverted. In other words, war stems from innate bestiality, while peace depends on human nature.
Long-term wars are sustained by bestiality, and the Great War in Europe is an example. The Germans are just more animalistic than the French, so the Germans can hold out to the end, while the French want a truce after three years of fighting. Is this the difference between a democracy and a constitutional monarchy? No. This is actually the difference in the proportion of bestiality in the two countries, and you can see this difference in the daily life of the Germans and the daily life of the French, Berlin is not as comfortable as Paris, so Germany is more barbaric than the French.
Most of the representatives of the Inspectorate are elected by the people, and they are the representatives of the people, no matter how many votes they spend money to buy. If they are not savage, animalistic enough, then what if you force them to keep Japan? What if they were forced to go to war with the United States? The people don't want to fight, they want to surrender, they don't want to contribute, they want to be lazy, maybe you fight in the front, and there will be revolution in the rear. When the time comes, not only will you not be a national hero, but you will be a sinner who provoked the war, and even that it is not the Americans who judge and strangle you, but your own people.
Every time there is a moment in history when heroes appear, there is a background of the overall decline of the country and the nation, otherwise why is there only a heroic individual and no heroic country? Otherwise, why would the country and the nation fall into a situation of life and death, so that it is necessary to rely on a few heroes to save the scene? If the nation-state is dying out, even if it is a heroic effort to turn the tide, the final outcome cannot be changed. This time, we will use the negotiations in the second half of the year to test how much bestiality this country has, if we can't pass this hurdle, what if we win the war? And who will be able to support this country after we die? ”
Even if there is no blood in his heart, Yang Rui's words also make Bei Shoutong cold to the bone marrow. Yes, if people don't want war, what's the point of what they do? He suddenly remembered an internal speech made by Yang Rui many years ago, which said: There are only two states of human beings, one is a beast, the other is a slave, and man is just a comfortable process of changing from a beast to a slave, the more exquisite the utensils, the more developed the civilization, and the more humane the thoughts, the person is not far from being a slave, because they have completely forgotten the supreme survival method of nature - you live and die.
Thinking about this, Pei Shoutong sighed and said again, "Sir, other people don't care, but there is no shortage of enthusiastic people among the young students, these people always have bestial nature, right?" ”
"Young students are not called beasts, they are called brain-dead. The result of standing with them is that the country is completely ruined by them, and you and I end up being shot and killed by the same sudden shooting as Japanese Prime Minister Yuyuki Hamaguchi. Yang Rui didn't expect Bei Shoutong to beat the idea of young students, so he had to warn again, "Public opinion should not be instigated wantonly, I instigated the peasants back then and already gave a bad start to the latecomers - Song Dunchu was finally finished because he wanted to take this road." Although Chen Qimei killed him only to provoke civil strife in the country - this man had never been in China and had no idea of the effect of judicial independence - Song Dunchu could still say that he had died because of me. ”
"Those who oppose the Sino-Japanese alliance and demand a good relationship with the United States can answer one answer: After the dissolution of the alliance, if Japan decides to go to war one day under the pressure of the United States, the war will definitely start with a sneak attack, and they will not be able to fight at that time, and the American troops will press the border and occupy the whole of Japan, how should we act?
Will Japan be tamed and transformed by the United States and eventually become a vassal of the United States, or will it join the war group and help Japan fight against the United States? Yang Rui seemed to be a little angry and said excitedly. The United States is not Britain, and it is impossible for him to accept the mediation of a third country and let Japan go under such circumstances, and he will definitely want Japan to surrender unconditionally before he will be passive and angry. From this point of view, the Sino-Japanese alliance can restrain Japan and contain the war, instead of talking nonsense with their eyes open, and the alliance is the bane of war.
This is also the reason why Beiting wanted to annex it in the first place, leaving a neutral country in the middle of the two powers, separated by a layer of you guess me and I guess you, sooner or later something will happen. Isn't that how the European war was fought? The cause of the war was not the German-Russian conflict, not the Franco-German conflict, nor the Austro-Russian conflict, but a conflict in the semi-neutral zone where the two sides were intertwined, which eventually exploded throughout Europe.
Japan's political situation is very chaotic, and the assassination of Hamaguchi five years ago is a symptom of political instability. Had it not been for our strong protest last time and our demand for a heavier sentence for the murderers, Japan might have been Germanized. Even now, the Constitutional Friends Association, which also relies on Inuyoyi, is holding the situation alone, and if Inuyoyi is killed by young soldiers again, then Japan will go crazy. What is certain is that after the dissolution of the Sino-Japanese alliance, war will inevitably break out within five years, and it will be Japan that will provoke the war, with the aim of pulling us to its side. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Rui got up and said, "You people don't forget that the Inspectorate is the owner, and you are just a buddy, don't make your own decisions for the owner." What we do now, and the money we spend, is our own, and it is still within the scope of government law. Preparing for war is one thing, but fighting or not fighting is another. ”
"Understood, sir." Pei Shoutong was covered in sweat.
"Well, it's not an exaggeration for you to think this way, there's nothing to blame yourself." Yang Rui breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll go to Japan next month, if you have time, accompany me." ”
"Ah, going to Japan?" Since stepping down, Yang Rui has basically only moved around his fiefdom, and has not gone anywhere except for the funeral......
"Yes. The Japanese government is now under pressure from above, and it is uncertain what the London naval conference should talk about and what strategy the United States should pursue. In addition, the integration of the Chinese and Japanese markets has been going on for several years, and financial integration and monetary integration should also be put on the agenda. Yang Rui said. (To be continued.) )
