Chapter 210: Strength Gains Respect

Originally, in the opinion of the Japanese Cabinet, it should take a long time for the Southwest Independent Army to solve their Indian garrison. But they never imagined that the Southwest Independent Army would completely destroy the morale of the remaining Japanese troops with only eight missiles.

Upon learning of the unconditional surrender of the Japanese troops stationed in India, some of the Japanese cabinet ministers, who were formulating plans for the implementation of the defense of their homeland, were furious, bluntly saying that these Japanese troops were traitors, while others chose to remain silent.

After several rounds of meetings and consultations, the two countries were also quite pleased that the two countries were pleased to finally obtain technical information on missiles from the Southwest Independent Army at a relatively high price.

The expert in charge of missile research and development also affirmed: "Their missile technology is very mature, and with our industrial strength, we can produce experimental products in three months at most." If you develop it yourself, I'm afraid it will cost you more! ”

It was thanks to the advice of these experts that the two countries were happy to pay for it. As far as Hu Biao is concerned, the technical performance of the first-generation missile is very average, and even if it is not sold now, it is believed that the United States and other countries will soon be able to develop it.

With the information obtained, the envoys of both countries returned satisfied. When the news came out, the rest of the war winners naturally seemed to be a little unable to sit still. After some analysis, England finally chose to compromise and hoped to cooperate further with the Southwest Independence Army.

Knowing that Hu Biao didn't like them very well, Ying Lyco, after some consideration, hired old Ivan as an introducer. As Hu Biao's situation gradually became known, old Ivan had a daughter marrying Hu Biao, and many forces knew about it.

In the face of the lobbyist sent by England, old Ivan acted as a dilemma: "When it comes to such a thing, I really can't speak." It's just that I was able to rent this farm in the first place thanks to your help. As an old friend, let me ask for you! ”

"Thank you! No matter what the future holds, the Earl of Ivan is our most trusted friend in England! ”

As one of the few kingdoms that still valued the so-called aristocratic glory, England also knew that the war was over, and they had both cooperation and confrontation with Menia. In this matter, they did not want to find Menia as a lobbyist anymore.

It just so happened that the former governor in India seemed to have a good personal relationship with old Ivan, so much so that he thought of finding old Ivan as a lobbyist. The result was obvious, Hu Biao quickly replied, and asked old Ivan to bring the British envoy for an interview.

During the negotiation, Hu Biao also said seriously: "Westerners pay attention to the spirit of contract, and so do I. Perhaps many people in your country feel that we have invaded your colonies. But you should know more clearly that colonization is invasion.

I've cooperated with your country several times, but at least I've never broken the treaty, including breaking up the invading Fuso army for you. We only captured the Fuso soldiers and collected the booty that we deserved, and we did not stop at the place to recover.

Through this incident, I believe that your country has seen my sincerity, and I hope that the status quo will be maintained and that we will abide by the contract we have signed before. As long as you abide by the agreement, your country will enjoy the same preferential treatment in the territory of the Southwest Independent Army in the future! ”

"Thank you! Please rest assured General Hu that we have been authorized by the government to cooperate with you. We also believe that in the future, we will have a lot of opportunities for cooperation in the multilateral field! ”

Just when many people thought that Hu Biao would increase the price, the price Hu Biao gave to England was no different from that of Menia and other countries. England, which was ready to be slaughtered, was indeed a little overjoyed by this.

When the transaction was completed, many subordinates were puzzled: "Wolf head, why don't you slaughter them fiercely?" ”

"Slaughtering this knife, they will definitely admit it, but it will further deteriorate the relationship. I'm not afraid to fight them, but we need to recuperate. After a few days of peace, should you end it here?

The most important thing is that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is a victorious country in any case, enjoying a high status in Europe and even in the world. If we want to go out in the future, we must have a good relationship with them. Don't forget, the world is big! ”

The few people who know Hu Biao's long-term plan know that before the war ended, Hu Biao transferred many elites from the Special Operations Brigade and the White Bear Commando to Africa for development. There, a predominantly black unit was even trained.

In Hu Biao's view, the African strategy is also very important for the future of the wolf army. As far as the resources of the Southwest Colonies themselves are concerned, the only way to achieve a huge improvement in the short term is to use external resources. Africa, on the other hand, is particularly important.

First lay the foundation there, and when the international situation stabilizes, then set up corresponding multinational corporations to use Africa's resources to feed back to the southwest. Parallel internal and external, military strength and economic strength go hand in hand, is the development path Hu Biao chose.

As Britain also bought the difference technology, the Soviet army, which was also secretly developing missiles, finally seemed to be a little unable to sit still. Originally, in the eyes of the Soviet army, they looked down on the Southwest Independence Army and felt that it was at most a warlord army.

The Soviets must admit that they cannot ignore the presence of the Southwestern Independence Army. Considering that the two sides did not establish a communication channel privately, they finally chose to contact Yan'an.

Of course, some people have suggested that they will be able to develop corresponding missiles by investing more money, manpower, and material resources, together with their own scientific research strength. But many people feel that this matter must be postponed as soon as possible.

Once Britain and France develop missiles, then the Soviet army, which has a lot of interests in Europe, will be threatened by these missiles. In the matter of dividing up the German army, the previous war alliance has actually completely disintegrated.

The parties who used to cooperate are now competitors and rivals. Since there is a mature technology, which can be obtained for a little money, why can't the Soviet army buy it? Moreover, Hu Biao's price is not so unacceptable.

After threading the needle in Yan'an, Hu Biao naturally would not refuse to contact the Soviet army. Even in the eyes of Menia and other countries, there are contradictions between Hu Biao and the Soviet army. But in Hu Biao's view, he does not want to participate in the Cold War that will be staged soon.

After the end of World War II, the world will form two camps, but for Hu Biao, he will not join that camp, but will adopt the way of cooperation and coexistence. Whoever can bring benefits to the Southwest Independent Army, Hu Biao will cooperate with whom!

To the surprise of the representatives of the Soviet army, Hu Biao gave two options when it came to technical negotiations. One pays all the gold, the second pays a part of the gold, and the other is topped up with a batch of weapons and equipment.

In the face of the Soviet army's incomprehension, Hu Biao also said directly: "I believe that your country should know that I have a lot of cooperation with the Eighth Route Army, and I also believe that Yan'an will become the birthplace of New China in the future, and I hope to help them again."

Previously, I refused to allow your country to send troops in, because I felt that this was a patriotic war for my country, and I did not want others to participate in it. However, I am quite in favor of any kind support, and your country has given selfless assistance in the beginning.

Although I am now the Supreme Commander of the Southwest Independence Army, I am destined to never forget my homeland. In order to end the war in the north as soon as possible, I hope that your country will also give you a certain degree of support.

At least I know that after the end of the war, many of your country's weapons and equipment are in the current situation of storage and mothballing. I hope that this converted money can be offset by fighter jets, artillery and even tanks, and I believe that this will be beneficial to all three of us! ”

Naturally, the negotiators sent by the Soviet army would not refuse such a proposal. The representatives of the Eighth Route Army, who accompanied them, also seemed very happy. The Eighth Route Army, which was undergoing the Northeast Reconquest Operation, would certainly increase its strength if it could receive assistance from the Soviet Army.

After several rounds of meetings, Hu Biao sold the Soviet army only half of the missile technology transfer fee to the other three countries. The rest of the money was converted into weapons, as another generous gift from Hu Biao to the Eighth Route Army, and the Soviet Army did not offer a high price.

As far as the Soviet Army is concerned, they know very well that the weapons and equipment of the Eighth Route Army are somewhat miscellaneous, and most of them are Japanese-style equipment. If the weapons they provide can be approved by the Eighth Route Army, they will also be able to provide more equipment in the future.

How profitable the arms trade was, the Soviet army naturally knew it. On the side of the Eighth Route Army, with the fighters and tanks provided by the Soviet Army, its strength has undoubtedly been improved again. Those pilots who have been trained will soon be able to take to the skies for combat.

The only thing that was upset was perhaps the Japanese army who learned the news. For the Japanese army, the importance of the three eastern provinces is self-evident. But now, the three eastern provinces seem to be really about to be unable to hold on.

As for the North China front, when the Sea Eagle Fleet and the Eighth Division of the Wolf Army successfully completed the landing at the port of Yinmen, the Japanese troops on the front line instantly fell into a situation of being surrounded on both sides. For a time, the Japanese army had to retreat on all fronts and abandon some of the occupied areas.

Correspondingly, all the Japanese troops retreated, and the attacking Eighth Route Army continued to advance in great strides. With the continuous expansion of the liberated areas, the prestige and military morale of the Eighth Route Army have been further enhanced. In the battle of North China, only Beiping remained.

The two armies met, and the Eighth Division of the Wolf Army, which was ordered to assist in the operation, did not participate in the following Battle of Beiping, but chose to continue southward, preparing to penetrate from the Yajiang area, which was heavily defended by the Japanese army, and strive to cut off the communication channel between the Japanese army and Northeast and North China.

The Sea Hawk fleet set sail again, the Eagle Strike Air Force began to fly to the Yajiang area, and a large number of troop carriers were assembled, which undoubtedly caused panic among the Japanese troops on the front line. Once the Southwestern Independence Army cuts off the land retreat route, the consequences can be imagined.

Sticking to it or giving up soon became a difficult choice that the Japanese cabinet ministers had to make. When the fighters and tanks delivered by the Soviet army were successively received by the front-line troops of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese army knew that the general trend had gone.

Just when the Japanese army decided to blow up the factory it had set up in the northeast, Hu Biao, who learned the news, personally drafted a telegram and asked the Eagle Strike Air Force to deliver it to the Japanese position. In a word, if you dare to bomb the factory, no one will want to leave.

At this time, the Southwest Independent Army already had nearly 40,000 prisoners of war. really forced Hu Biao to be anxious, so the price to pay, I am afraid that Fusang is unbearable. Faced with this threat, the Japanese army, which was preparing to retreat, finally chose to compromise.

This also means that the Eighth Route Army, which has taken over all the factories left over by the Japanese army, finally has its own industrial system. As long as it is properly managed, I believe that the financial situation of the Eighth Route Army will be improved soon!
