Chapter 822: A New Song in the Snowy Land

After two rounds of fierce competition, the Sino-Italian cooperation plan defeated the United States and Britain as desired, and became the big winner of Chile's next generation of battleships, when the good news was announced, everyone in the delegation laughed like children, these days they have worked hard to complete an almost impossible task, and when it comes to victory, everyone is like a dream.

Win, we win!

Everyone's hearts are constantly shouting that the Chinese can really defeat a strong opponent and win this super order worth 45 million yuan. Unlike Siam, a country that has been shrouded by China for many years, Chile is far away and won by strength.

This is not just a large amount of income, but also means that China will enter the high-end arms market from now on, and not many countries can enter this market. Even if Japan doesn't succeed, of course, it's not that Japan's jishu can't do it, but they don't have the courage to grab food.

That's the way it is, if you don't fight, it's not yours, when you hear the news of the Chinese delegation's victory, the most angry thing is Panasonic Rongqing, this guy is like thunder.

It was unbearable for him to have such a large piece of fat fall into the hands of China. Just when he was sulking, he saw the Chinese delegation coming back happily, everyone with a smell of alcohol, and a group of blondes around him, which made people's eyes red and warm.

"Hmph, don't be complacent too early, if the warship produced by some people can't float at all when it reaches Zuihou, and becomes a living coffin on the sea, I'm afraid it will become the laughing stock of the world."

"Thank you for your concern, the Chinese feel confident to build a first-class warship." And I also tell you that even if it fails, we can still mortgage the Changbaishan to Chile, and we will definitely not delay the time for the customer to become an army. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Jing sneered: "I seem to have forgotten that the Changbaishan was once called the Kirishima. We would be even happier if your country could send both the Nagato and the Mutsu over. ”

This sentence poked at the sore spot of the Japanese, and Matsushita Rongqing waited for a pair of mouse eyes, as if he wanted to eat people. Chen Jing and the others don't care, this success has given them enough confidence.

In fact, not only them, but even the country is also very excited, when Zhang Tinglan initially made this decision, almost no one could believe that the Chinese have the ability to grab food. Grab this list.

Even Wu Yulin and they all had the mentality of giving it a try, and when the news of the selection came back, China immediately boiled, and major newspapers rushed to report it. This is a milestone in China's military industry, as well as a milestone in China's international status.

Able in the field of arms sales. Defeating the United States and Britain undoubtedly represents China's rise to the top of Shijie's ranks. Every Chinese can pat their chests and say. We are a great power too!

Zhang Tinglan was also very happy, and after the success, he sent a telegram to Mussolini as soon as possible. China's ability to get orders is inseparable from Italy's help.

Although Zhang Tinglan looked down on Mussolini, who was a low-level master, Italy was still one of the top four in Europe when there was no war. Friendship with Italy and mutual cooperation between the two countries is also a constraint on the United States and Britain.

Mussolini, on the other hand, was even more arrogant and complacent, since opening the Chinese market. Italy's economic development is on the fast track. His position became more and more secure, and the rule of the fascist party was completely established. After the success of this order grabbing, Mussolini made a public speech, saying that this was a great victory for Italy-China cooperation, and the two countries would carry out more cooperation in the future.

However, compared to everyone's optimism, Jiang Baili was not very optimistic, and he directly found Zhang Tinglan.

"To put it mildly, the Americans have long shouted that America is the America of the United States, and I'm afraid they won't let us get involved so easily. Even if the bid is successful, they can still destroy it, and I think we should not be busy with the promise, and observe first, lest the Chileans regret it. ”

"Brother Baili, your worries are not wrong at all, but I am determined to win the South American market, and the United States will definitely not give up, but we have to see if God gives them this opportunity!"

In fact, in the previous economic crises, the more the government controls Liliang, on the contrary, not only will it not be damaged, but it can also rise against the trend.

Although it is not enough to delineate the scope of shili, it has gradually been included in Zhang Tinglan's calculation to stretch out its economic tentacles and bind as many countries as possible.

When the strength increases, people's ambitions will swell, at first Zhang Tinglan was just thinking about self-preservation, after the unification of the country, Zhang Tinglan at most thought about recuperation and recuperation. Wait until World War II, and then take advantage of the trend and become a shijie power.

However, with the process of China's industrialization, Zhang Tinglan felt more and more that there was a problem with this most secure method. The biggest problem lies in China's size, which is more than 500 million people, and within 20 years, the population will reach at least 800 million, if not more.

China's size is almost equal to that of all developed countries combined, and how many resources and energy such a country needs is an astronomical figure.

After a certain period of time, the resources that Shijie can provide are quite limited, and if Europe and the United States sit back and eat the fattest piece, China's industrial process will be delayed.

The development of industry is something that cannot wait, and the sooner it is done, the less dangerous it will be, and the lower the cost will be. Otherwise, if it drags on, China will fall into the trap of Latin America, and it will never be able to climb out.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Tinglan is so interested in Chile, time is running out, even if he doesn't want to fight, he must fight.

"Brother Baili, you said that if the economy suddenly collapses, the foreign trade of various countries almost comes to a standstill, the factories are closed, the workers are unemployed, and production is stopped, what do you say will happen to this shijie?"

"Huh?" Jiang Baili was also taken aback by the situation described by Zhang Tinglan, and hurriedly said: "If this is the case, I am afraid that this shijie will be burned everywhere." ”

Zhang Tinglan also nodded: "That's right, Brother Baili, according to observation, there is a serious bubble in the US economy, which is in danger of bursting at any time. The United States is the number one economic power. The largest trading nation, once the United States collapses, the impact on shijie will be fatal. ”

"Humble words, since it's so powerful, do we have any countermeasures?"

"Brother Baili, the so-called economic crisis is caused by blindness and overcapacity, we still have huge market potential, coupled with effective guidance from the government. Far from hurting us, this crisis will provide China with an unprecedented opportunity. We can rest assured that we can boldly absorb the advanced jishu of various countries, and it can be said that the industry will usher in an unprecedented development. ”

"That's great." Jiang Baili said with a smile: "For so many years, your prediction has never been disappointed. I hope this time it will be true. If China is strong, it will reign over the world, and if it is weak, it will become the land of four wars. There are opponents everywhere. ”

"That's right, Russia is newly defeated. But Japan is still in sight. Taiwan, in particular, must also be resolved, this island is too important, and only by taking Taiwan will we have a base to enter the Pacific Ocean. In addition to Taiwan, it is better to take the Ryukyus again. Then the portal is completely opened.

"These two places are the lifeblood of the Japanese, and if you want to take them, you have to fight hard with Japan, and I don't think the opportunity is yet ripe." Jiang Baili said: "There are already calls for the recovery of Taiwan in China. Many high-ranking officers are also gearing up and eager to try. ”

When Zhang Tinglan heard this, he also smiled helplessly, the continuous victories in foreign wars have made some generals arrogant, and all of them are militants. It is not easy for Zhang Tinglan to suppress this enthusiasm directly, but if it is all according to their wishes, it will be bad sooner or later.

Therefore, Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Since they are gearing up, let them lead the troops into the plateau, and it should be solved here." ”

As a unified country, Zhang Tinglan certainly could not allow the existence of backward slavery in some areas, such as Yunnan and other places, where the Tusi Touren had all been completely wiped out with the advancement of land reform.

Without these people, the authority of the government is unprecedentedly high, and its ability to control the local area has also increased exponentially, but there is only one point, that is, there are some troubles in the plateau area, and Zhang Tinglan did not rush to do it.

Now, with the complete consolidation of northern Xinjiang, the time has come for the southwest to be solved, especially the construction of roads in Yunnan-Tibet, Sichuan-Tibet, Xin-Tibet and other places, and then sending troops to the plateau, it will not be so troublesome. Zhang Tinglan's attitude was very clear: the backward serfdom system must be cleaned up, and education must be vigorously promoted and customs must be changed.

"To put it mildly, the plateau is actually not a military problem, during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Zhao Erfeng led a large army, and he was able to solve the rebellion, not to mention that we are now so powerful. It's just that this is a battle to attack the heart, and it may not be so easy to declare war on thousands of years of tradition. ”

"That's right, but the more difficult it is, the more beautiful it has to be solved."

"Now that we have made up our minds, there is nothing to say, and we promise to complete the task."

……

After Zhang Tinglan assigns the task, it is a very huge project to solve the problem of the plateau, and the military is only one part of it, and there is still a lot of work to be done, and the first thing to be carried out is to wage a war of public opinion and seize the commanding heights of morality.

Under the instruction of Zhang Tinglan, the Propaganda Department published a large number of stories on the plateau, truthfully introducing the suffering of the serfs at the bottom. When the Chinese people heard that there was still a matter of using living sacrifices in this era, they were all stupid, and no one would have thought that something that had always been in the history books would happen in the vast land, which is simply challenging the conscience of mankind.

Those various torture instruments were displayed, and even some of the escaped low-level serfs recounted their experiences, and public opinion was even more boiling.

It is unforgivable that life is so cheap that those monks who are full of Buddhas can forget the doctrine of the equality of all beings, treat millions of people as slaves, and kill at will.

Therefore, public opinion strongly demanded that the government must take action to change the situation on the plateau, and some civil society organizations were even established. They sent volunteers into the plateau to witness the situation on the plateau and find a way out for the people there.

Under the persecution of "public opinion", Zhang Tinglan also sent an investigation team into Sichuan. Although it was called a small group, it had a large number of personnel, several hundred men, and three divisions of troops were drawn from nearby areas, ready to march into the plateau at any time.

After they arrived in Chengdu, they first issued an invitation, hoping that all the religious leaders and noble leaders of the plateau could gather in the capital to discuss the problem and explore a suitable solution.

In fact, since the public opinion was in an uproar, there were three shocks a day on the plateau, and they did not know how powerful the Wehrmacht was, but there would never be anyone who naively thought that they could confront the central government. Now public opinion is very unfavorable to them, and these people are all frightened and restless.

After getting Yan Xishan's invitation, he was quite smart and came immediately, and finally one after another, hundreds of people gathered in Chengdu, and some people wanted to resist stubbornly, so they didn't come under the pretense of being unwell.

Yan Xishan's hand is not only to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, but also to throw stones to ask for directions, can come, it shows that there is still a center in the eyes, can be transformed, there is no need to kill with a stick, those who refuse to come, there is only a dead end.

"Ladies and gentlemen, some things are like a child getting vaccinated, no matter how much the child cries, he can't hide from it. Therefore, smart children will pretend to be brave and hurry up to the end, so that they can still get candy from their parents to eat. But some of the more stupid children will only cry loudly, which makes the parents impatient, and Zuihou still has to take a needle, tossing himself enough, and he can't get anything. Here, I hope everyone is a smart person and doesn't mislead others and yourself! ”

Just as Yan Xishan said this, the armies of the three divisions had already divided into the plateau. Weapons were surrendered, serfs were registered, and pastures were inventoried.

A large number of civil servants, under the protection of the army, carried out meticulous work. Of course, there are many people who are dissatisfied with these mainland officials. They organized thugs, pulled up men, and wanted to resist, but the army was not for viewing. With the slightest hint of wind and grass, the army will immediately go into action.

The leader of the troublemaker was killed, and the rest of the people were all used as coolies and sent to the northwest and other places. As the plateau became clearer, the division of the land began. The serfs who had been pressed to the bottom in the past finally regained their freedom and got land.

The owner's property was divided equally, and for the first time they wore new clothes and shoes, and for the first time they had an official identity card and a land ownership certificate. It was as if I had ascended from the lowest level of hell to heaven all at once. In an instant, many people consciously put the army, and even put Zhang Tinglan's portrait in the position of the shrine, replacing the former gods. (To be continued......)
