Chapter 189: Negotiations with Japan
Chen Xuan was upset, he was really a traverser in vain, everyone crossed over for three years and five years to catch up with the United States, and he struggled hard for 8 years, and he rarely even returned home, and he was still overwhelmed by a mere Japan.
"How is the army building in the interior?"
"Jiang Zhong's army commander is stationed in Anshan, and now there are 50,000 troops, more than enough to hold on, but the progress is insufficient, Zhang Guangyuan's army commander is stationed in Lushan has 60,000 troops, mainly responsible for our industry and industrial zone in Lushan, and the rest of us in the south of the Yangtze River belongs to the Beiyang system, we probably have about 30,000 troops, that is to say, our total strength in the country is about 700,000, except for the 100,000 new recruits in Shanghai, all of whom are well-equipped and well-trained."
Sun Hongye then reported.
"Ding San, how is the Air Force?"
"We have a total of three air force units, Situ Biru's Nanyang Air Force, Zhu Zhuquan's Northeast Air Force and Zhu Zhaohuai's Fujian Air Force, and the other is the air force unit under the navy, with a total of 750 fighters, 160 bombers, 120 transport aircraft, more than 130 reconnaissance planes and other aircraft, a total of about 1,200 aircraft, and the training of pilots has exceeded 5,000 people, and the training is still ongoing.
If we want to expand the size of the Air Force, we have the ability to expand to about 3,500 aircraft in 3 months, but I don't recommend doing this, because aircraft technology is changing day by day, and it will be a huge waste to equip it like this! ”
"I can't take care of so much now, but what you said makes sense, 1,200 is indeed a bit less, you will make a plan to increase the number of Air Force aircraft to about 2,000, and 5,000 pilots are too few, if it is a full-scale war, the losses are amazing, you try your best to expand the number of pilots to more than 10,000, and the aircraft factory will also expand its production capacity, time is not waiting!"
"Yes! Commander in chief! ”
"Brother Qicai, how is the domestic strategic reserve going?"
"Our current strategic reserves are only routinely equipped, as Changjing said, within 3 months, we can ensure the normal consumption of the war, 3 months later, it depends on the production capacity of the Industrial Division, with their current production capacity, at least one year!"
"The Department of Industry has been expanding its own production capacity, excluding Xia, there are currently four major military bases in China, namely Harbin, Nanchang, Anshan and Shanghai, at present, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has been put into operation after our rectification and upgrading, and there is no problem with the supply of our troops, but it will be difficult after the scale of the war expands.
Han Yeping company is the most complicated, Beiyang has shares, the Japanese have shares, Sheng Xuanhuai has shares, we also have shares, and there are many shareholders, because we are not the holdings, so we have not paid much attention, mainly to do raw material production, if we want to vigorously develop Han Yeping, we need to pay a great price, and the income has to be shared by the Japanese! ”
"Now I can't manage so much, since there is a foundation to use, then open the Hanyang factory, if there is a real war, there will be nothing to do with the Japanese?"
"But Wuchang Hanyang is not under our jurisdiction, I'm afraid there will be a lot of problems!"
"Don't worry about this, mainly invest in the construction of steelmaking plants and machinery factories, the increase in steel production of the Hanyang plant will also be of great benefit to Beiyang, they have no reason to refuse, after the factory is formed, a large number of skilled workers can be trained, even if it is necessary to change the military factory in the future, there is a good foundation, it is a pity to let it go now!"
"Good! I'll arrange it later! ”
After asking about the military and industry, Chen Xuan learned about finance and the development of various departments, and he could be regarded as having a thorough inventory of his family's background.
Fortunately, the situation was not as bad as imagined, and the hardships of the past few years were finally not in vain, especially after the outbreak of the European war, because of the large number of orders received, the Baath Party's finances were also enriched, and the gold and silver in the treasury of the Bank of China also increased.
After taking stock of his family background, Chen Xuan finally had a little confidence in his heart.
Today's China is not only Zhenhua, Nanyang Huang Zhonghan's Jianyuan Group, Yu Qiaqing's Hongan Group and Siming Group, Zhang Jian's Dasheng Group, Xu Ruohan's Hongyuan Automobile Group, Huangpu Group, Zhujiang Group and slightly inferior group companies are all domestic industrial pillars, if there is a real war, it is not impossible to change to military.
Chen Xuan sighed in his heart that 8 years of hard work were finally in vain.
"Yiyang, the Japanese have come into contact with us, and it seems that they are not ready for a full-scale war with us!"
Gu Weijun happily ran to the office upstairs.
"Just now, the Japanese sent us an intention to negotiate with the British, the French and the Americans, and set the date for the negotiation at the British consulate in three days, when Britain, France, the United States and other Allied members will participate, as the two major suppliers in the European theater, it seems that Britain and France do not want us to have a full-scale war!"
"This news is not bad, you can talk to the Japanese and find out their bottom first, but our Baath Party will never be a sinner of the country and the nation, this is our bottom line, and the rest will be adapted to the situation at that time!"
"Good! I know, I'll go down to prepare, when the time comes, I'm afraid that General Yan (Yan Fu) and Commander Sun (Sun Hongye) will also have to participate, so please prepare the two of you, in addition, Britain, France and Germany see the huge achievements of our air force, and hope to increase the number of orders for fighters, the bigger and more fierce on the European battlefield, both sides have heavy casualties and lack of materials, if the negotiations with the Japanese are successful, our industry will achieve great development! ”
"It doesn't matter, we are in a hurry, the Japanese are more anxious than us, these years, with the addition of the Northeast and the South Seas, our finances have been greatly relieved, even if we lose orders from Europe, we have our own mineral resources, and it will not hurt the bones, but the Japanese are a small country, and they do not rely entirely on imports for any resources, if they lose the orders of the European war, they are only afraid that it will be difficult to survive!"
Chen Xuan set the tone for this negotiation, and the top leaders of the Ba'ath Party made some details to add, but these were useless, because the Japanese had not yet made a move, and it is conceivable that they would inevitably demand that the Baath Party return the captured ships and the Japanese captured in the northeast.
As for the rest, we have to talk about it slowly.
Wu Qi, who was in charge of intelligence, also took action to try his best to probe the bottom line of the Japanese, and over the years, Wu Qi had fought with Japanese spies several times, and the two sides won and lost each other.
Since the situation is no longer so serious, Chen Xuan is also ready to go home to take a look, in the past six months, although the family lives in Shanghai, Chen Xuan is so busy that he doesn't even have time to spend with his family.
Chen Xuan's home is now in Pudong's Hanyuan, and the same as the Wei Garden in Nanyang, Chen Xuan has used his own money to build a very large Chinese-style garden for his two wives over the years.
Chen Xuan's motorcade came to the gate of Hanyuan, and Zhang Youwei and Xu Ruohan had already taken their children to greet them at the gate.
Now Chen Xuan's eldest son Chen Gong is 6 years old and is studying in the high-level vocational school of the Baath Party and Zhenhua, and his daughter is also 4 years old and has also entered a special kindergarten.
What makes Chen Xuan a little embarrassed is that these two children don't stick to Chen Xuan, but it's no wonder that over the years, Chen Xuan has been running around, and the time spent with his family is really handful.
Seeing Zhang Youwei and Xu Ruohan's happy appearance, Chen Xuan couldn't help but feel guilty, the two wives who were like flowers and jade also helped him give birth to a pair of lovely children, not only did he not have time to accompany him, but he also stole food outside, which was really unforgivable.
As for the relationship between himself and Xia Yunru, it is now a mess, and it is still messy.
After eating with his family, Chen Xuan put away all unnecessary entertainment, and was determined to accompany his wife and children for a few days.
Xiao Chen Qi said that under Chen Xuan's deliberate flattery, he quickly became familiar with Chen Xuan, or how to say that his daughter is his father's intimate little padded jacket, Chen Gong is difficult to say, although he is also with Chen Xuan's father and daughter, but he is not interested in the game of father and daughter, which makes Chen Xuan feel defeated.
The dinner was not made by the servants, Chen Xuan decided to make a hearty dinner for his wife and children, but how could the clumsy Chen Xuan do this, Zhang Youwei and Xu Ruohan couldn't stand it, so they had to step forward to help, so the meal was made, most of it was made by two women, and Chen Xuan could only help.
Coaxing the child to sleep is also an extremely difficult thing, Chen Xuan learned to tell the story to the little brother and sister, but it was okay not to tell it, the more he talked about these two little guys, the more excited he became, without the slightest sleep, and finally Xu Ruohan couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to take the two children away.
Chen Xuan came to Zhang Youwei's room, Zhang Youwei, who had given birth to a child, became more and more feminine, Chen Xuan knew the taste of the marrow, the two fought one after another, and after the passion, Zhang Youwei obediently lay in Chen Xuan's arms, and used her hair to draw circles on Chen Xuan's chest.
"Brother Xuan, I still want a child!"
Although Zhang Youwei and Chen Xuan have been together for many years, they still don't change their shyness, and her voice trembles slightly.
"Why did you suddenly think of this?"
"Gong'er and Qi'er are also older, Ruohan has her own company to be busy, and now I am alone at home, and I play the piano and paint every day."
Chen Xuan's heart was even more guilty, and he hugged Zhang Youwei tightly, this woman like Yuehua has always been a woman who does not fight or grab, and tries not to cause trouble to Chen Xuan, and now she can make this request, which shows how lonely she is.
"I'll transfer your students in Nanyang, how about we open a Weiwei hospital in Pudong, this was originally in our plan, but this time is too busy, so that it runs aground, let's start tomorrow, Xiaowei, I'm sorry, don't blame me, okay?"
