There was no danger in Congress, and that proposal was completely refuted by data and facts. In the sentence of a small party congressman, "You say that if you don't allocate funds to Yunnan-Guichuan, the north is bullying the south, so does your so much corruption and embezzlement in the southwest mean that the governments in these places are exploiting the people?" Can the funds allocated to these silverfish still help the people in southwest China get out of poverty? I am afraid that it can only give these bureaucrats a good opportunity to exploit the common people under their rule and then exploit the taxpayers in other provinces. Although they did not understand the complicated struggle in the Congress, the simple and simple people of the southwest were grateful to the Tzu Chi Society for risking the danger of going deep into the epidemic area to treat the disease and save people, so they did not hesitate to include the Civic Party in the ranks of despicable villains.

When the Civic Party warlord Yang Sen, who assassinated the supervisory officials and burned the votes that were not in his favor, was directly killed by a division of the National Defense Army in southeastern Shaanxi, the southwestern warlords were collectively silenced. Lu Rongting's experience is not far away, Yang Sen's head has become a testimony in court, who would dare to confront the Xinhua Party head-on. In addition, the will of the people also made the warlords have to give up the political stage to the Xinhua Party to dance alone.

Time flies, and everyone originally speculated that the European war, which lasted for less than half a year, not only did not show signs of a truce, but became more bloody because of the involvement of some unscrupulous profiteers. The fighters of both sides were mixed together in the air from the beginning, killing in the dark, although the lifespan of the aircraft engine was less than two hundred hours, but no one cared about this, because the rookies usually did not have a battlefield survival cycle of more than a week. Trench warfare on the ground has become the main situation on the battlefield, although the Germans have obtained the true biography of Wu Chenxuan in this regard, but no matter how good the trenches are, they cannot help the Germans win the offensive war, the trenches of the French may not be reasonable enough, but the killing efficiency is not low, especially from China caused the kind of large-caliber grenade launchers (no conscience guns) and 75 rapid-fire guns, every time the German army charges will be trapped by this endless barbed wire and machine gun trenches, and then be crushed by Miss 75's 20 rounds per minute, The German army did not lack heavy artillery, but because of the firing range, it could not effectively suppress the opponent's standard arsenal-produced 75 rapid-fire howitzers.

In 1910, Moltke the Younger discarded Schlieffen's idea of sending two corps from the left flank to reinforce the right flank, and concentrated the six supplementary divisions near Metz. Finally, when the nine divisions were newly formed, he added one of them, plus one division drawn from the Eastern Front, to the right flank, and the remaining eight divisions to the left flank. The seemingly unstable arrangement was the nightmare of the Germans, because the essence of Schlieffen's plan was the extremely unbalanced configuration of the left and right flanks, using a roundabout style of play to lure the enemy deep by the weakness of the left flank, and the powerful and sharp right flank was like a scythe of death to pierce the opponent's defense, and then annihilate the main force of the French army in a roundabout way, which must be to annihilate the enemy in motion.

It is a pity that Moltke turned this strategy with the main purpose of annihilating the enemy's living forces into a game in which several German regiments rushed up to grab territory. If Bismarck was alive, he might have been taking advantage of the victory to make peace, if it was old Moltke, he might have concentrated his superior forces to open up the situation by making a coherent short assault on a certain point of the enemy, and if it was Schlieffen, he would have let go of the left flank, lured the other side to attack, and then played a roundabout game. It's a pity that the indecisive little Moltke is just like a lecturer in a third-rate military academy, and he distributes his troops thoroughly, but he has no determination to win in danger. In fact, if Moltke Jr. was an American general, maybe there was nothing wrong with this, but unfortunately his motherland was not so good, and this mentality of seeking stability was the fatal root.

Therefore, after the defeat of the British and French troops in the border battle in August of that year, in order to get rid of the German army, they withdrew across the Marne River on September 4, actively strengthened the left flank, and prepared for a counteroffensive. In the course of the pursuit, the German 1st and 2nd armies deviated from the original direction of attack due to the misjudgment of the deployment of the French forces, and the right flank was threatened. After that, in order to encircle the French army in a roundabout way, the high command decided to defend the front of Paris with two armies on its right flank (the 1st and 2nd armies), and continue the offensive in the south and southeast with three armies (the 3rd, 4th, and 5th armies) to encircle the French army in the area south of Verdun. On September 5~12, the Anglo-French army carried out a full-front counteroffensive with 6 armies (the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 9th armies of France and the British army), 66 divisions, and about 1.08 million people. The main direction of the counteroffensive was the right flank of the German army. In the main directions, the Anglo-French army had almost twice as much living force as the German army (the British and French used 4 army groups, 35.5 infantry divisions, 8.5 cavalry divisions; The Germans had only 2 army groups, 18 infantry divisions and 5 cavalry divisions). After the general offensive was launched, the French 6th Army attacked the right flank and rear of the German 1st Army, and the German 1st Army was forced to return fire with two armies from the front, thus creating a gap between the 1st Army and the 2nd Army led by K.W.P. von Bülo. Thus, the British Army Group and the French 5th Army took the opportunity to enter this gap zone. Bülo ordered his troops to retreat, forcing the 1st Army to retreat with them. By this time, the Chief of the General Staff of the German Army, H.J.L. VON Moltke, had lost control of his troops and had to order the armies to withdraw to the Soissons-Verdun line to hold out. The Anglo-French forces advanced 60 kilometers on a strip up to 200 kilometers wide, thus turning the Western Front into a protracted phase of positional warfare. In this battle, the Germans suffered about 210,000 casualties and the French about 140,000. It was a highly mobile battle, a turning point in the 1914 war on the Western Front in favor of the Allied forces.

Such a maneuver operation would have been the perfect opportunity for the Germans to annihilate the living forces of the opposing side, but what did we see? If it weren't for the flags and uniforms of both sides, you'd think it was the Germans who attacked and the Allies were struggling. I don't know if it's stupid to say that the Junkers are brave or stupid to say that the Junkers are brave or stupid.

However, the European war when the front stabilized showed another characteristic of trench warfare, that is, the elite army can be tossed into a straw chicken with all kinds of bad situations, muddy and cold trenches, cold guns from time to time, the stench of dead bodies, confrontations without black and white, sickness, sleepiness, cold, dampness, and death everywhere, all of which are combined into one word "despair", when soldiers pull their grenades from time to time to kill themselves, the morale of this army has actually collapsed, maybe they can charge, can defend, can penetrate, but you don't know when the whole company will have a battalion roar at night, and a crazy soldier with a machine gun can sweep all friendly troops to death in their tents.

Sickness, casualties, escapes, captures, and collapse of soldiers were a headache for the British, French, and German armies, and although new troops were constantly being added, the rate of loss was not something these countries could afford. As a result, some people in the parliament proposed that "borrowing teachers to help suppress" was not the patent of the Qing Dynasty, and the British and French governments had to seek foreign aid for the British and French governments, which usually put their eyes on the top of their heads.

"Boss, is there something big going on when you summoned us this time?" In the office building of the Ministry of National Defense, there are double posts outside a conference room, and all the people who come in and out are generals with shining stars or high-ranking officials in civilian clothes with extraordinary temperaments. The twenty people in the conference room at this time were Wu Chenxuan's henchmen who had gathered in the secret base that day, except for Zhang Nanjiang and Chen Tianhua who dealt with some parliamentary affairs in Nanjing, Lu Zhengxiang who sent envoys to Britain and France, Feng Ru who ran the navy in Yantai Port, and Zhang Shaozeng who went south to Zhejiang to take charge of the army, the other nineteen were all there. This time, I didn't send everyone a meeting agenda like the usual meeting, so Xiao Mingfeng, who was anxious, still quietly called the boss.

Wu Chenxuan didn't pay attention to his whispered words at all, but took out a telegram and handed it to Duan Zhiquan for them to circulate, "The British and French sides have already asked us for assistance through diplomatic channels, but they just hope that we will send skilled workers and strong workers to help them with production and front-line logistics work." ”

"It seems that they still look down on our Wehrmacht" Duan Zhiquan, who studied in Germany in his early years, of course knows very well the pride in the bones of these white-skinned people, "It's better for us to ignore this kind of request first, and drag it out for a while, and when the republic is eight years old, they are seriously young and strong, and the effect of our replay may be better." ”

"What General Staff Officer Duan said is extremely true, and the old man also thinks that since the other party still can't correctly understand his situation, we might as well wait and see, and wait for the price to sell." Xiong Bingsan and Wu Chenxuan have been together for a long time, and when they open their mouths, they also smell of copper.

"Of course we can wait, but some people are afraid they can't wait." Wu Chenxuan nodded at He Minhan, He Minhan walked to the end of the conference table, turned on the projector, and a photo was projected onto the wall.

"According to our information, the revolutionary party Xie Zhi, Zou Lu and others set up the European Recruitment Bank in Guangdong, and have begun to recruit workers to work in Britain and France, and the price offered is two francs a day for a strong laborer. Moreover, they are privately contacting some British and French enterprises through the remnants of the Thirteenth Bank, and the first batch of more than 3,000 workers is already applying for exit visas, and it is expected to leave at the beginning of next month. ”

"I really dare to climb on my compatriots and drink blood, the minimum wage of French workers is 10 francs a day, even if the European side offers a discount, it can have 5 francs, only to give 2 francs to each person, these revolutionary parties do not dislike the flesh and blood on the money."

There was a lot of discussion in the hall, and everyone shouted and beat the revolutionary party for this kind of behavior of bypassing the state and opening a black-hearted intermediary, when Jov was on stage, the revolutionary party was eager to go to the government's approval for a fart, but now it has become an opposition party, and it dares to bypass the government and call the shots on such a big matter as cooperating with the foreign powers, and this double standard is really not inferior to that of the world police state in later generations.

"Boss, what do you say if we go through the procedures of Congress in a big way, and then legislate not to allow enterprises without international business qualifications to engage in the export of labor to European war countries, otherwise it will be regarded as human trafficking?" Although Zhang Nanjiang, a wise multi-star, was present, Xu Juren, who was good at Yang Mou, was even more spicy, and with a slight move, he blocked the financial resources that the revolutionary party had just opened, and if the revolutionary party thought that only restricting the "export of labor" was a legislative omission of the Xinhua Party and exploited loopholes, such as using the name of work-study to engage in export, Wu Chenxuan believed that Xu Juren's methods and Premier Xu Da would definitely make the revolutionary party stinky from now on, let alone develop party members, and even dogs would not smell the façade of his house.
