In 1915 and 1916, the war in Europe never stopped for a day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Millions of people died in the war, and many more were displaced, especially when the time came towards the end of 1915, when the Germans realized that Britain and France had gathered more than a million troops and were ready to launch a major counteroffensive by taking advantage of the thousands of planes and tanks that had just received the Huntelaar consortium.

The crossfire of thousands of heavy machine guns cost the British army 34,000 men a day!

This number is more than 10,000 more than in history, and it is precisely because of this crazy battle that the British and French lost more than 800,000 people, and they also realized the great power of the Browning heavy machine gun. So in the second week of the massacre, the Huntelaar Arms Manufacturing Company won the largest order since the war began—20,000 heavy machine guns and more than 100 million rounds of machine gun ammunition. So on the third day of receiving the order, a fleet of ships departed from New York for Europe......

They have been waiting for this order for a long time.

Because the Huntelaar consortium belongs to only one person, and that is John? Mr. Huntelaar, and therefore in a constant state of high secrecy, no one knows exactly how much money the Huntelaar consortium made from Europe throughout the war. Later, after more than ten years of research, a so-called expert came up with a shocking figure -- more than four billion dollars!

Whether this number is right or wrong, no one knows.

Some people say that this figure is too big for a consortium to make so much money, but some people scoff at this, believing that with the scale and opportunity of the Huntelaar consortium at that time, it is impossible to have only such a small amount of money just by selling weapons and various materials, not to mention that the Huntelaar Bank is the largest creditor of loans to Britain and France......

But everyone knows, John? How much did Huntelaar spend in those years!

Needless to say, the Huntelaar consortium had swelled to the extreme before the war, and in addition to large-scale investment in scientific research, the scale of production did not increase much. This has won the praise of many people, because it leaves a certain profit margin for other consortia and enterprises, otherwise if they are really swallowed by the Huntelaar consortium, I am afraid that not only other consortia will unite, but even the U.S. government will not tolerate them.

But in the Far East, in China, John? Huntelaar's dedication is palpable!

The huge investment in industry was worth it, not only did they replace China as the second beneficiary of World War I, but they also brought huge returns to the Huntelaar consortium; The Beiyang government has also invested more than $100 million in helping them stabilize their rule, expand and strengthen their armies, and at the same time encroach on other local forces, but these are all loans, and they are still weapons produced by the Huntelaar consortium, which will also make it smooth sailing in China for decades to come......

But the investment in education is a bit incomprehensible.

In just five years, John? Huntelaar has built more than 1,000 primary and secondary schools, more than 10 normal schools, 3 world-class universities, more than 60 technical schools, and 15 medical schools in Chinese mainland!

These schools alone cost hundreds of millions of dollars!

You know, just the standards of those three universities and five top medical schools are not what China can build in this era. From the school building to the teaching building, from the experimental equipment to the teachers, almost all of them are of the world-class level. In order to build these schools, John? Huntelaar recruited excellent teachers not only in North America, but also in war-torn Europe, luring them to teach in China with high salaries!

These eight universities must have invested more than $200 million in five years!

Not to mention the large number of normal schools, technical schools, and primary and secondary schools built in China, which are certainly larger than the eight universities, and these schools together support almost half of China's modern education -- that is the education of a country with a population of hundreds of millions!

No matter how you interpret it, there are many people who can't understand it.

So later there were a lot of people who thought, John? Huntelaar threw half of his World War I gains into China. Although many people do not support this theory, it also proves that this number is huge, even to the point that many Americans later strongly criticized it......

In any case, 1916 passed like this.

By the end of 1916, the war in Europe had reached its worst.

Both sides had the most advanced aircraft and artillery, and the old industrial empires had enough resources and strength to build these advanced weapons, so the casualties of the First World War were even more heavy than in the other world - the medical teams sent by Huntelaar were active in the hospitals in the rear of the countries, and the wounded were constantly treated.

Regardless of the country, it has already begun to get tired.

Although the Huntelaar consortium and even the United States have always occupied the initiative on land under the overt and covert blood transfusion, with the defeat of the naval battle and the passage of time, the overall strength disadvantage still inevitably affected them. In particular, Britain and France had a steady stream of colonial reinforcements, and the disadvantage of the Germans in human resources was inevitably highlighted, but the quality of the army and the level of industry occupied a certain advantage.

Of course, this is not to say that the Germans are not good.

After more than two years of war, the countries of Europe were exhausted, whether they were British or Russian, German or Austro-Hungarian. Although they received the weapons of the Huntelaar consortium, the Germans always seemed to be one step ahead, so that the British and French, although they always had an advantage at sea, could hardly take advantage of them on land, and because of the great effect of aircraft, tanks and heavy machine guns, the British and French suffered much heavier losses than in the same period, and the number of dead was 600,000 more......

Of course, the worst country is undoubtedly Russia.

After his rebirth, John influenced many aspects of the world, and although it was not enough to change the general trend of the whole world, because of his strong support for Germany, it made the Russians even more miserable. Russia had already lost millions of troops since entering the war, and this situation was exacerbated by the fact that the Tsar had forcibly manufactured these heavy weapons on a large scale, despite the dire economic situation at home, after receiving the aircraft and tank manufacturing technology handed over by the British.

Every day, countless people die.

Tens of millions of troops are facing each other and fighting on the front, and more poor people are working hard in the rear to produce everything necessary for the war, and people are living in misery - not in textbooks, but in living facts!

In this war, Europe can be said to have lost badly.

The real benefits have been taken up by countries like the United States, which are selling materials wildly, and China, which has taken the opportunity to get rid of the constraints of other countries and began to desperately develop itself. Even Japan, which had taken a big advantage, lost this opportunity because of the emergence of the Huntelaar consortium, at least it gained far less than in history.

Far away in North America, John, has a precise grasp of all this.

So when the end of 1916 came, John looked at the intelligence from Russia and Germany, learned about the situation in the United States, locked himself in his study for a whole day, and then sent a telegram to the Far East himself......
