Chapter 268: Each has a ghost
Corresponding to the strategic offensive plan, in addition to the strategic assistance of the Liang Xia Empire as the main leader, there is also a post-war benefit distribution that has not been spared.
Strategic assistance is all right, and it is completely expected.
The Luosha Federation has nothing to say, except for resources, there is no way to compare with the Liangxia Empire and the Juman Empire, and even industrialization is not thorough enough.
It should be said that it was the promise of strategic assistance from the Liangxia Empire that finally persuaded the Luosha Federation.
After the tripartite alliance landed, the Liangxia Empire was about to start transfusing blood for the Luosha Federation.
Strategic assistance, which is carried out in two phases.
In the first stage, that is, within 100 years of the new calendar, the Liangxia Empire mainly provided weapons and equipment, ammunition and materials and other physical goods to the Luosha Federation. With the exception of impermanence assistance, the rest is settled through barter, and the Luosha Federation mainly uses oil, ore and agricultural products to deduct it.
In the second stage, from 101 of the new calendar, the Liangxia Empire will send experts to provide machine tools and other industrial equipment to help the Luosha Federation improve the existing industrial system, that is, to help the Luosha Federation achieve full industrialization, and finally make the main industrial products self-sufficient.
If you want to say, in the second stage, what the Luosha Federation wants most is actually advanced technology.
Although compared with the Liangxia Empire, the industrial strength of the Luosha Federation is not strong, but compared to many other countries, the industrialization of the Luosha Federation is already very good. What's more, the Luosha Federation is a centralized country, and its mobilization ability in wartime is very strong.
In other words, the Luosha Federation's ability to switch between peacetime and wartime is extremely strong, and it can maximize the country's war potential.
In addition, the Luosha Federation has the capital to become a powerful country.
It has a land area of more than 8 million square kilometers, a population of 150 million, abundant oil and mineral resources, and self-sufficient food production.
These are all necessary conditions to become a superpower.
If the vital population and resources are taken as the standard, the strategic potential of the Luosha Federation also surpasses that of the Riman Empire, and it is second only to the Liangxia Empire as a land power.
What the Rosa Federation lacks is comprehensive and complete industrialization, that is, the technology to achieve industrialization.
This is also the key reason why the Liangxia Empire postponed the second phase of aid until the year 101 of the new calendar.
No matter how the war develops, in the year 101 of the new calendar, you can make a clear judgment on the outcome of the war, so as to decide whether to aid the Luosha Federation or not.
In Wang Kaiyuan's words, the next year is actually a test period for the Luosha Federation.
In other words, if the Luosha Federation did not stand the test, let alone receive assistance, it would be considered a blessing to be able to hold on to the defects.
If you want to blame, it is also that the Luosha Federation has been too close to the Newland Federation in recent years, and it has to be guarded against.
The aid given to the Empire was the opposite, mainly based on military technology, and to be precise, in fact, based on mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation.
Most obviously, aero engines.
The Liangxia Empire has the best water-cooled engine in the world, and the Liangxia Empire is powerful with air-cooled engines, and the complementarity can be described as "perfect".
There are many similar ones, and the list can be said to be endless.
It seems like a coincidence, but it is not.
In almost all cutting-edge scientific research fields, bits are cutting-edge technologies related to military affairs, and the Liangxia Empire and the Juman Empire are both misplaced developments and have strong complementarity.
To say, this is evidence that the two empires have long been conspiring.
The biggest advantage of misplaced development, complementing each other and learning from each other is to avoid waste caused by repeated development.
Because both sides will not admit it, it can only be regarded as a coincidence.
What the Manman Empire lacks is also resources, and it lacks everything.
Comparatively speaking, the Liangxia Empire was only short of oil, and other resources were either self-sufficient or imported from other countries and regions.
The Empire, with the exception of coal and iron ore, was self-sufficient, and all other resources were highly dependent on imports.
Even the grain has to be imported from the Locke Republic!
To this end, the Rosa Federation will provide resources to obtain the necessary technology and equipment from the Empire to increase the country's military industrial production capacity.
To put it simply, the Luosha Federation is a resource-producing country.
Because the military industrial production capacity of the Riman Empire was not enough, especially before the completion of mobilization, it even asked the Liangxia Empire to provide assistance, such as the 3,000 bombers provided in two parts, so in cooperation with the Luosha Federation, the only thing that the Empire could exchange for was military technology.
Is this a coincidence?
Obviously, no.
Comparatively speaking, the military technology of the Manman Empire was biased towards tactical application, while the military technology of the Liangxia Empire was more focused on strategic application.
Still take aero engines, for example.
The biggest advantage of the water-cooled engine is that it has a small frontal area, which is especially suitable for fighters with high speed and the need to minimize flight resistance. The disadvantages are also very prominent, the structure is more complex, the maintenance is very difficult, and it is not suitable for bombers with low speed requirements. The characteristics of air-cooled engines are just the opposite, in addition to the special needs of the Navy, the Army is also mainly used in bombers.
Obviously, the Empire focused on the development of water-cooled engines, and tended to develop tactical aviation.
The Liangxia Empire has always adhered to the path of air cooling, and fundamentally speaking, in addition to taking care of naval aviation, it is to develop strategic aviation.
The real key lies in the misalignment between tactics and the application of strategy.
Fundamentally, it is actually to prevent the Luosha Federation from taking the opportunity to sit big.
With the military technology of the Manman Empire, the Luosha Federation can at most protect itself and consolidate its land power, and it is difficult to pose a strategic threat to the two empires.
On the contrary, if the military technology of the Liang Xia Empire is obtained, it is a different matter.
Similar precautions and restrictions are evident in many places.
The Luosha Federation did not tear its face for this, and it was only because it had no choice.
Xue Yuanzheng had previously told Bai Zhizhan that the Luosha Federation was unwilling to form an alliance with the Newland Federation, not because the Newland Federation was not strong enough, but because it was too far away.
No matter how powerful the Nuland Federation is, it is also far water, and it can't save the near fire!
In addition, the situation has developed to the point where as long as the leaders of the Luosha Federation are a little more sensible, they will abandon all unrealistic illusions and proceed from practical interests, that is, to ensure the security of the homeland and minimize the losses suffered by their country in the war as much as possible.
Isn't the military technology provided by the Empire used to ensure strategic security?
Even if the offense is insufficient, it can be more than enough to defend.
Relatively speaking, strategic assistance and strategic cooperation are relatively easy to talk about, after all, the three land powers on the same line have similar strategic demands, and the advantages of the two empires are too obvious, so as long as the Luosha Federation dreams of being a resource producer, there is not much of a problem.
What is really problematic is actually the distribution of benefits after the war, that is, how to divide the dividends of the war.
When I saw this part, Bai Zhizhan was extremely emotional.
It is not only the content of the draft, but also the conclusion of such a draft in such a short period of time.
It must be said that the negotiators of the three parties did their best.
This proves from one side that the three land powers are eager to reach an alliance treaty as soon as possible, after all, no one can afford the current situation.
Because the distribution of benefits after the war involves issues such as resource allocation, it is necessary to discuss strategic assistance and strategic cooperation together.
As for the content, it was an absolute shock!
