Chapter 54 Planting Sea Lotus Root
Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~
"Actually, you really want to fight in the United States?" At the end of the meeting on the second day, in the garden of the Duke's Palace, Wang Jitong and Yang Rui took a walk in the night breeze. It is not as hot as the summer in the Guannai, and there are logging bans and water and soil orders on the fiefdom of Zhenguo, and the summer is very cool.
"If he can do it, why can't we?" Since being stimulated by Zhang Kun yesterday, Yang Rui has brought the respective industrial data of China and the United States, and after comparison, he found that the industrial strength is indeed not much weaker than that of the United States
-- Steel production this year is 1,870:2,880, and northwest China imports 2.2 million tons from Soviet Russia and 2.685 million tons from the United States. There is not much difference in this way, but last year's U.S. steel output was 48.53 million tons, and before the economic crisis, that is, in 1928, steel production was 52.37 million tons, so from this point of view, the two sides are very different, but it is comforting that this gap is not irreparable.
In addition, if you control the sea power, you can also import steel from other countries, which is equivalent to having the world's resources (of course, provided that the military spending is sufficient). Although the price was high during the war, when the world's shipping was in hand and the manufacturers of various countries were signed in advance, Yang Rui did not think that the price of steel could rise much. If China had not defeated Japan and maintained a huge number of submarine forces to deter the Japanese Navy, not to mention shipping profits, even commodity profits would have to be taken away by the Japanese.
The oil is 4,500:18,500, and China imports 10 million tons of Soviet Russia every year. Besides. China also has nearly 190 million tonnes of strategic petroleum reserves β hot oil from the United States during the economic crisis (U.S. oil consumption plummeted during the Great Depression, leading states to reach production caps). However, there are still manufacturers who over-exploit this type of oil, which is called Hot.oil. It can only be smuggled and sold, and the price is as low as US$1-2/ton, compared to the normal price of US$8-10/ton) when it emerged, China purchased 160 million tons for three consecutive years.
The coal and carbon ratio was 5.1:4.4, which is about the same as the 522 million tons in the United States before the crisis. However, the power generation ratio of the two sides is 1360:874, and even if Japan and North Korea are added, it is only 104.7 billion kWh. The reason is that there are many Chinese, and now families in areas with cheap transportation are burning coal, which increases the amount of coal. However, the Mouth Cannon Party believes that it is because the U.S. government has built the Hoover Dam and started the Tennessee water conservancy project, which is really ......
Grain production (cereals) was 3.72: 082 million tons, fertilizer 2310: 1.37 million tons, cement 2688: 19.52 million tons. In terms of metal smelting (unit: 10,000 tons), aluminum 28.4:13.28, copper 60.37:59.26, zinc 47.36:52.22, lead 45.12:33.83, manganese ore 67.73:12.12.
Chemical industry (unit: 10,000 tons): plastic 697: 2.4, salt 1493.3: 800.9, sulfur (including natural sulfur and by-product sulfur) 751: 302.6, apatite 812: 351.8, sulfuric acid 695.9: 376.1, hydrochloric acid 84.3: 11.2, nitric acid 152.7: 15.96, soda ash 589: 255, caustic soda 229: 87.88;
In terms of machining, the ratio of lathes (large lathes of more than 10 tons) is 70:110. However, due to the widespread use of tungsten carbide tools, the cutting speed is 2.1 times that of the American ultra-high speed of just 75 m/s, and the maximum spindle speed is two to three times that of the ultra-high speed steel 500-700 rpm. In addition, the small-scale trial of ceramic tools makes the machining speed even faster, and the spindle speed can reach 3,000 rpm.
It is also worth mentioning the influence of laser on machine tool processing. Because of the monochromatic and coherent nature of lasers, laser measurement technology has developed rapidly. After the use of laser measurement technology, the accuracy of length measurement has reached 0.01 microns, and the accuracy of the marking ruler has reached plus or minus 0.5 microns/meter. Specific to production, take the positioning accuracy of the coordinate boring machine as an example. Before the use of lasers, the accuracy was generally 10-15 microns, but after the use of laser technology, the accuracy plummeted to 2-3 microns. The machining accuracy of other lathes. The ovality of the processed parts of the high-precision cylindrical grinding machine can reach 0.25 microns, the finish delta is 14 degrees, and the grinding degree of the high-precision surface grinding machine can reach 1.5 microns/1000 mm. High-precision precision lathes can process ovality up to 0.04 microns. The coordinate grinding machine can grind ovality up to 1 micron and finish delta 10 degrees.
Implemented into specific products. Taking the combat vehicle diesel engine as an example, the improvement of machining accuracy doubles the pressure of the fuel injection pump to 120Mpa, increases the engine power by 5%, and reduces fuel consumption by 3%; At the same time, the life of the supercharger and engine is extended by 15%, and the failure rate is reduced by 42%; In aviation, in addition to rockets, the performance of piston engines, propellers, and turbochargers has been strengthened, and the rapid propulsion of jet engines is due to ultra-precision machining.
Of course, the performance of ordinary machine tools is not critical, extreme manufacturing equipment is a big country's heavy weapon, the number of hydraulic presses is comparable to the United States, but the die forging hydraulic press is something that the Americans do not have, and Britain has a 12,000-ton class, but this is not enough to support wartime aircraft manufacturing, not to mention the two oceans. After the fighter is more and more large-scale and heavy-duty, the lack of sufficient pressure of the die forging hydraulic press, not only can not be formed at one time, but need to be welded. Experiments have shown that no matter how good the welding is, it is only 85% of the original strength, and in order to maintain the original strength, it is necessary to increase the material by 15%, which is equivalent to increasing the weight by 15%. The impact of weight on aircraft performance is self-evident, and welding and riveting also waste man-hours, which is not conducive to rapid manufacturing in wartime.
From all the data, Yang Rui sees a world power that is not inferior to the United States. As for her steel production, look at her plastic production, which is only one-sixth the density of steel, which has been completely replaced by various industries, and some even had the foresight to predict that plastic production would be higher than steel production less than 20 years ago. It is precisely because of the huge plastic production capacity that China's steel output is less than 20 million tons.
Such a country. The people were obedient and ignorant, but they were extremely simple, not to mention their industriousness. In time, it will indeed become the center of the world, and the prosperity of the whole world will move eastward. She does not need to fit into the Anglo-American world system. Nor does she need to sign the WTO, she can lead the whole of Asia and the countries attracted by her huge market to rebuild a new international system.
China is only five to ten years behind the United States, and with China as a behemoth, and with its tendency and determination to suppress the war in Europe, it is simply impossible for the United States to recast its self-centered world system through World War I. Since the United States cannot reforge the world system and benefit from it, then it will be surpassed by China, and the most lethal thing is that with China's development, no one can surpass China. Unless the whole of Europe is integrated. This is the reason why there must be a war between China and the United States, and it is also the reason why the Americans want to seize the 'advantageous time' of the past few years to start a war as soon as possible......
Yang Rui thought about this, but he didn't hear Wang Jitong talking at all, so that Wang Jitong, who was walking in front of him, didn't react for a long time, and then turned his head and asked, "What are you thinking?" β
"I didn't think about anything, I just ......" Yang Rui didn't know how to express his thoughts -- he didn't hate the United States for provoking war, and any country had the right to war. However, he was extremely disgusted with strategic bombing, which did not distinguish between military and civilian casualties, which had been manifested in Atlanta as early as the Civil War. It is also the best embodiment of the Puritan Republic of the United States: the so-called justice is actually the justice of Jesus Christ; By freedom, we are actually the freedom to believe in God, and whoever violates this Christian righteousness and freedom of faith. That's the devil, and he deserves to go to hell.
"I'm just thinking about how far the war should go." Yang Rui's mind turned around before he finally replied.
"Don't you want to land in the United States?" Wang Jitong said. The two-day meeting made him completely aware of Yang Rui's thoughts. He just wanted to get a start -- he still insisted on the bottom line, that is, the two sides would divide the sea power in the Pacific equally.
"Of course. Not only in one aspect, but also ordinary Americans. Only landing on the American mainland can deal a heavy blow to it and force it to sign a peace treaty. The naval blockade was done by the British more than a hundred years ago, and it was of no soft use. Yang Rui said.
"But we won't be able to hit the East Coast, let alone burn Washington." Wang Jitong didn't care about Yang Rui's dirty words, but sighed. "No matter how much military spending is, it can only last for four or five years, and after four or five years, the national strength will definitely go downhill. Then what Jiang Baili said well, 'whether you win or lose, just don't make peace with him', if the Americans deal with us like this, what should we do? β
"That's why we pull in Mexico." Yang Rui said. "We can only land in California, east of the Rocky Mountains, and the Americans will definitely defend the entire mountain range. But with Mexico, it is different, the army can bypass the Rocky Mountains from Mexico, and fight from his belly, Texas, which is tantamount to flanking and the Rocky Mountains will definitely be lost.
If the Rocky Mountains were lost, the retreating Americans would not be able to calmly place fortifications on the Great Plains in the center. There is no way to arrange any fortifications on the plain, the American transportation is good, and there is no shortage of oil in the rear, and there is no better place for the armored army to gallop than here. "Yang Rui felt a little strange when he said this--he finally found the battlefield for the 'Meow' chariot, but it was a place that he had never thought of and dared not think of." The last natural danger should be the Mississippi River, which runs from Canada to New Orleans, which runs through the north and south of the United States. β
"But how many troops are needed for this?" Wang Jitong knew that Yang Rui thought so, and he was not surprised at this time. He was a little resentful of Zhang Kun, it was he who reminded Yang Rui to pay attention to the relationship between unit price, quantity, and economic aggregate, before that, Yang Rui only looked at the economic aggregate and thought that he could only fight a limited war. "How much will this cost? Can the national strength withstand it? β
"It is precisely because they can't bear it that they have to fight a blitzkrieg, if the Americans don't ask for peace." Yang Rui said. "There is a good saying that once a war starts, it is difficult to end." He laughed and said, "I'm just interested in the land of the United States!" It's not as comfortable as grabbing land from the United States, this is something that no one has ever done, and I want to do it! β
"But we have already announced to the public that we will not accept an inch of land." Wang Jitong was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect Yang Rui to be this logic.
"Then I will establish another country!" Yang Rui is very arrogant, to put it bluntly, he is full of confidence and his head is hot. "Let's call it the Americas and Greater China. and Mexico is bounded by the San Francisco parallel, and the north is ours. The south side belongs to them, and to the United States...... Just take the Rocky Mountains as the boundary. That is, Louisiana, which he bought from France.
This is not a large country, but there is also Canada! Canada, Canada. Isn't it just for everyone to take? With a population of just over 10 million and an area of more than 9 million square kilometers, immigration could not be better. Yang Rui waved his hand at the air at night, "So that the country really stands." Since the United States does not want peace talks, then everyone will fight slowly. The more he dragged us in North America, the stronger our power became. You must know that they are the ones who are blocked, we occupy the coast and the Panama Canal, and the Pacific Ocean is equivalent to our inland lake, and there is no need for any escort at all. Wait for the jets to come out, and there will be no suspense in the war. β
"What are you...... Robbery! Wang Jitong really couldn't find any good words. In the end, Yang Rui's ideal can only be described as robbery. "Don't say anything about the state of Chinese etiquette, you are a duke, you go to grab the land of North America, you are not afraid of losing your identity?"
"What kind of identity does this have?" Yang Rui was surprised, "The war was provoked by them, so they naturally have to accept punishment; Besides, we really robbed in broad daylight, didn't play any conspiracy, and didn't use mixed bullets, all of them were shot with real knives and guns. Glorious very. Xiao Xu, don't do any woman's kindness, the way to prevent another war with the United States is to send him back to the Atlantic, and don't let him set foot in the Pacific Ocean and seagrass. β
"Then you won't have conflicts and wars on land?" Wang Jitong couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't expect the duke, who has always paid attention to morality, to have such thoughts and faces. "You and Mexico occupy so much of the United States. And everyone takes ......, no, it's a plus. ......Ah....... Wang Jitong was confused by Yang Rui's sentence of 'Canada, everyone takes it', and he was so angry that he wanted to stomp his feet. He simply skipped it and said, "You occupy so much land in Britain and the United States, they will definitely hate it." They didn't say they would cut our land when they went to war. β
"That's because there are so many of us, there's really nothing to cut." Yang Rui said. "When it comes to mowing the land, I'm hungry. Let's have a bite to eat. After he finished speaking, he ordered to arrange supper left and right, and then said: "Xiao Xu, don't be deceived, since you are a nobleman, you must have the morality of a nobleman." What is the morality of the aristocracy, that is, like a tiger and a cheetah, he uses his claws to obtain food, and like a wolf, he is not weak enough for wolves to hunt in groups, and he is not like a tiger and a leopard who is alone.
Tigers and leopards are born to eat meat, and it is impossible for them to grow meat in the field, so whoever bites them is unlucky. Blame them? Not to blame. According to scientific analysis, they often prey on the old, weak, sick and disabled, and according to the catfish effect, the sheep in the place where the tiger and leopard are infested must be healthier than the sheep that do not have the tiger and leopard. No matter how cruel this is, it is only one link in the biological chain.
But some people just want to go against the sky, preaching democracy, peace, equality, humanity, this mess of bullshit! This sheep morality and way of life is all rubbish! I have always insisted on the moral requirement of not taking sheep tigers. Sheep eat grass, tigers can eat grass too?
Throughout human history, from the previous civilization to this civilization, the confrontation of the entire history of human thought is essentially the confrontation between tiger and leopard morality and sheep morality. Different eras, different countries, and different people have different descriptions of these two kinds of morality or thought. Sometimes the former is called the aristocratic faction, and the latter is called the plebeian faction; Sometimes, the former is called specialized. system, the latter is called democracy; Other times, the former is called conservatism and the latter is called liberalism......
No matter what it is called, it cannot change the fact that the great deeds and wealth of all nations are accumulated by the former, while the latter will only consume the wealth accumulated by their predecessors in the name of democracy, freedom, and equality, and criticize them with their sheep morality, what butchers, what dictators, what executioners, and what tens of millions. I was not angry but amused, when will it be the sheep's turn to take charge of what is happening in the forest? Their main dish is almost the same, but the smell is too strong. β
talked about the strategy against the United States, but I didn't want Yang Rui to talk about the history of thought. But Wang Jitong knew that if he couldn't be persuaded ideologically, nothing would be done. He retreated: "What about the Bolsheviks? Are they tigers or sheep? β
"Bolshevik ......" Yang Rui didn't expect Wang Jitong to ask this. However, with the world economic crisis, intellectuals all over the world have opened their thighs to the ruble and fully admired communism. "The Bolsheviks," he said, "were only sheep, of course, but they were a flock of sheep that had gone mad. In order to realize the common ideals of the sheep, they intend to act in tiger skins and imitate tigers. As a result, ......, in the end, the sheep is still a sheep. Even if he goes crazy, he still does not change his true colors -- he is fierce on the outside and on the inside, and he can easily degenerate into a hypocritical and cunning bureaucrat who does not dare to be responsible. From Stalin to ......"
The name of He Corn flowed through Yang Rui's heart. He turned: "Trotsky did not smell like a sheep's flesh, revolution after revolution, revolution until death." This is also a revolutionary aristocracy, even if it is not a nobleman, it should be a knight. β
"What about the Nazis?" Wang Jitong listened to Yang Rui's nagging, and when he was tired, he found a chair under the street lamp and sat down.
"Nazis?" Yang Rui also sat down and lit a cigarette, and he took a puff before saying: "The Nazis, for example, are actually the most similar to Don Quixote." He may be a nobleman, or at least a broken nobleman, but the problem is that he has not only a problem with his brain. The decaying family also failed to inherit him, but instead learned some lowly tricks, so what he did became a show. This is a tiger who doesn't know how to use his minions and has no strong man's faction is having a nervous disorder, and it is also the last struggle of a tiger who is overwhelmed by sheep morality; After that, the tiger became extinct, leaving only a skin and a few legends of good or bad - much worse, of course. β
After talking about the Nazis, Yang Rui said that in the United States, "The Republican Party in the United States is a tiger, and the Democratic Party is a sheep." Stress legal principles and democracy. It must be the Democrats who will win, but the Republicans will be able to fight. β
Yang Rui finally finished speaking, and Wang Ji said: "It happened, the tiger has the idea of a tiger." But no matter how good the idea is, it has to be done by sheep. The national strength is limited, what if the sheep below feel that the war can no longer be fought? β
"Then it depends on the real national strength. Or the sheep's laziness has been committed again. The former will accept it when it is good, and the latter will have to teach a good lesson! Yang Rui bit the cigarette butt. He suddenly asked, "Xiao Xu, do you know why some people are born sheep. Some people are born tigers? β
"I don't know." Wang Ji smiled, he felt that Yang Rui had gone a little crazy.
"The only difference between the two is that sheep can endure humiliation and steal their lives, but tigers don't." Yang Rui also smiled. He continued: "There is an extremely dangerous ideology in China right now, and that is liberalism, progressivism, and democracy that have been introduced from the West. If you want to fight, you have to clean up all these people, otherwise you can't fight. Then there are the authentic bananas who believe in Christ, although these people do not transmit toxins, they are almost one with the former. β
Some of the things that were not done more than a decade ago were because of the need to create a legal environment and at the same time take into account international influence, but during the war it was different, and it was only legitimate to purge these Westernized elements in the name of war. Yang Rui needs an oriental world with few Western toxins. As for the assertion that Western humanities and technology are mutually reinforcing, he does not believe it at all: if Christianity can integrate empirical science, why can't Eastern civilization? The ancient Greeks who believed in Zeus also had scientists.
Yang Rui said this, but Wang Jitong's expression was solemn. He knew very well what the purge represented, and why Yang Rui endured it more than ten years ago made him even clearer. He was worried that the foreign war would not be under control, and he did not want the civil war of more than ten years to turn over again. Anxious, he stood up and waved his hand: "Actually, don't forget, those people are also our compatriots and nationals of Greater China!" How can you be unconstitutional......"
"People who don't worship their ancestors, don't wear fancy clothes, and who say that they are Greek and write about democracy are not compatriots!" Yang Rui didn't stand up, but with one foot, he sat with a golden knife. "The constitution ......, and the constitution can be changed. The next constitutional amendment must indicate that people who do not worship their ancestors and do not believe in religion are not qualified to become citizens of Greater China! β
But faith is free, and even Roosevelt said that freedom of belief must be guaranteed. Besides, these people are already citizens of Greater China, and they have ID cards and household registration books, how can you amend the Constitution? Revoke their citizenship? Wang Jitong said fiercely.
βThe-second-is-freedom-of-every-person-to-worship-God-in-his-own-wayββeverywhere-in-the-worldγβ Yang Rui suddenly recited a sentence from Roosevelt's Four Freedoms speech, and then laughed: "People say that no matter in any way or place, people have the freedom to believe in God, but the mouthpieces deliberately translate it as 'freedom of belief', so as to open their eyes, and ******** to the extreme!" Roosevelt was referring to what he said before Congress at this time, and he was clearly criticizing the religious policies of our three countries and condemning us for excluding Christians. β
Speaking of this, Yang Rui gritted his teeth again and again, and finally threw the cigarette butt and said firmly: "I don't care who stops me, no matter what the price, anyway, this group of miscellaneous pieces will be planted with sea roots!" β
