Chapter 161: Discussion of the War 2
"That's because our mobile fleet is not dispatched, and if the mobile fleet is dispatched, they will not be able to get close at all. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ะจะฉะฉ.(7)(9)XS.ัะะ. Bu Zhongfu said a little unconvinced, Xiao Mingwei shook his head, "The fishing boats and anti-smuggling boats used by the mobile fleet are just old radars and sonars, and with the continuous use at sea for a long time, it seems that one of the radars has been broken, right?" โ
Bu Zhongfu nodded, "It's broken, it seems that the line is aging and has caused a short circuit, and one was burned at that time." Xiao Mingwei smiled slightly and said, "We do have a free ship to be launched, but the specific navigation ability of the free ship needs to be tested little by little, and it is a transport ship itself, and it cannot be used as a military ship." โ
"Not necessarily," Tang Xunliang was interrupted by Xiao Mingwei before his words fell, "If you want to requisition the free wheel, talk to Gu Qingqian first." โ
The Navy immediately stopped talking, since the last time they used the funds sponsored by the Department of Commerce to snap up the steam engine provided by the Industrial Council, and the construction of the Liberty Ship had to be delayed, Gu Qingqian vetoed the second payment that the Commercial Committee had originally scheduled to "hand" to the Navy, and transferred the funds to the War Department for the development of automobile engines.
"In any case, our firepower is still superior at this stage, and it is impossible for the surface fleet of the Medenor people to pose a threat to us during the day," Tang Xunliang said and regained some self-confidence, and continued, "As for night safety, it is not impossible, as long as we maintain a state of navigation or strengthen night observation, in addition, we can also ask the electronic development department 'door' to develop a shipborne radar system as soon as possible." โ
"Well," He Yue said a little angrily, "Then it's better to discuss with the Maidno people first, you are not allowed to fight at night, you can only come during the day if you want to fight." โ
"That's it," Li Jieqi's words didn't sound good, "Now that the Medenor people have learned about the power and firepower density of our weapons through this battle, they will consider the next battle to focus on night battles, or just take advantage of the morning fog to attack our fleet, what will you do then?" Is it necessary to always have a fleet and other radars developed? โ
"What do you mean?" Tang Xunliang's tone was also not good, "Now the navy is equipped with old-style ships, we don't have high-tech weapons and equipment like yours, and we don't want to fight bayonets with the enemy without fear of death, but you also know that one year of the army, ten years of the air force, the navy can have a hundred years of accumulation......"
"The PLA Navy has not been developed for a hundred years, isn't it also developed? We even had an aircraft carrier when we left! "That is, I only know how to find objective factors and find my own problems, is it okay?" Immediately someone next to him said something even more unpleasant.
"Bang!" With the sound of a heavy teacup slamming on the table, everyone's voices were quiet, and they all looked over, Bu Zhongfu was standing behind the table, holding the table with both hands, his face was red, and a teacup that had broken the bottom was bubbling out. "Is it easy for our navy? In addition to the four fishing boats and the anti-smuggling boat that Lao Tang drove halfway, the rest is a landing craft, this is the entire team of our Senate Navy, your army has dozens of troops down, and there are so many military 'fans' who give you advice and even join you directly. But what about us? We have so many empty ships but we don't have enough veterans to run them, not to mention that after the Shabak 'chaos', all the indigenous military department 'gate' personnel have to re-conduct the political trial, and before the political review is completed, all modern ships are not allowed to board the aborigines, comrades, without the aborigines boarding we can't even run a boat! Not to mention the lack of fuel, now we can't even get enough fuel for four cruisers to go out to sea for patrol, and everything has to make way for the 'door' of the Ministry of Commerce. โ
"That's it!" Tang Xunliang sat on the side, although he didn't stand up, but from his reddened face, he could see that he was definitely not in a good mood. "At this stage, in order to continue the operation of the navy, we have to put the captured military and civilian ships back into service, and we have even taken out garbage ships such as Fu Chuan Guang Chuan as treasures, and we can't do anything about it! If a country wants to be peaceful, it must have defense capabilities, and in peacetime, our navy has always been guarding the country's 'gate' at sea to protect its security, compared with the shore, the navy's danger is much greater, at least the ground will not sink, and the ship will sink! This time, Zhong Bin's destroyers escaped after being jumped, and they still had the courage to re-kill the enemy's fleet in an attempt to help the capital ships get out of trouble, this heroic act proves that the boys in our navy are really good! I think that in order for the ships to be put back into service, it is better to quickly expand the naval force and improve the naval equipment, so as not to suffer more damage from the prepared Medeno in the next battle. โ
"But the question now is whether or not to declare war on the Medenors?" Yang Minghuan hurriedly seized the opportunity to ask questions, "We are still in a state of conflict and provocation with the Medeno people, just like Sino-Japanese relations in the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japan, both sides did not declare war in an all-round way, but they kept going back and forth in secret. What we are now discussing is whether to declare war immediately or to continue to forbear? โ
"Forbearance is still necessary," said Xiao Jing on the side, "Only a small part of the raw materials needed for our basic industries can be produced ourselves, and a large part of them still need to be imported." โ
"What raw materials need to be imported? Tell me about it! He Yue asked with a light tap on the table. Let me first talk about what we need, what we need in the steel industry of Dongfang Port, we can mine coal ourselves, and there are laborers in the labor camp for production; Iron ore needs to be imported, but now I heard from the people of the 'Gate' of the Ministry of Exploration that they suspect that they have found iron ore veins west of Champong Port, and as for the quality of the ore, I heard that it is slightly worse than the Shiroku iron ore in the old world, but as long as mining begins, there will be a steady stream of iron ore to be transported. As for the copper mine, although there is no copper mine nearby, our demand for copper is not large, mainly because the amount of copper coins needed is relatively large, and this can be re-smelted by recycled copper coins. There are also a lot of metals such as lead, tin, and antimony in the recycled copper coins, and the demand is not large, and we can also obtain them by recycling copper coins. As for the bullet casing, although there is a lot of copper, it can be recycled, and the effect is basically the same after reloading, there is no difference. โ
According to the statistics of the amount of grain in the warehouse of the Council of Agriculture, our grain can be provided to the total population of the existing Oriental Port for a year and a half to a year and eight months of consumption, and now a large amount of new land is being opened up in the farms of the Committee of Agriculture, and from Sun Wenbin still has room to grow tobacco, we know that the expected grain output will definitely be able to meet the needs of the Oriental Port for at least half a year. Therefore, the transportation of grain does not need to be transported from outside by the Medeno people. โ
"Let's talk about light industry, our light industry is mainly based on salt, sugar, cloth, garment and other products as the main products, salt is produced, and we have salt mines in the west of Oriental Port, production does not rely on imports; Although the sugarcane used to produce sugar is now imported, the sugarcane and sugar beet on the farms in Port Orient are already grown in large quantities, and I believe it will not be long before the demand for industrial scale can be met. The main thing used for spinning is cotton yarn, and the cotton "flowers" needed for spinning are also planted in the Oriental Port farm, and the Ministry of Light Industry "door" said in this month's monthly report that the cotton "flowers" produced in the Oriental Port are not only of better quality, but also sufficient in quantity to meet the production needs, so the cotton "flowers" certainly do not need to rely on imports. As for ready-to-wear, this thing was originally our Dongfang Port's internal consumption, and there were few outside merchants who needed it, so the demand for cloth was not large, so the import demand for cotton cloth could also be reduced to very little. As for sake and monosodium glutamate, they are basically extracted from agricultural products or seafood, so they are not imported products. โ
"The raw materials produced by the Ministry of Chemical Industry are easier to find, the raw materials of three acids and two alkalis, salt we can produce ourselves, saltpeter is often associated with salt mines, as for the sulfuric acid needed can be obtained from pyrite, so it is not a problem at all, with three acids and two alkalis, the production of the entire chemical industry is not a problem, it is nothing more than a problem of production expansion. Although the cessation of the import of iron ore will cause a certain decline in steel production, you must know that iron ore in the Wu Dynasty or the Meideno people belong to the embargoed materials, the original amount is not large, and we still recycle all kinds of scrap steel products as the main way to obtain, so it is not so terrible for us to cut off all import channels after the war. โ
He Yue said that his hand was spread towards Yang Minghuan and Xiao Jing, "Compared with the possible results of declaring war, I am more afraid of the consequences of not declaring war." โ
Yang Minghuan and Xiao Jing glanced at each other, the combined age of the two of them was probably one or two years older than He Yue or Xiao Mingwei, and their knowledge must be far behind, and Yang Minghuan couldn't care about the executive committee at the moment, and hurriedly asked, "Then what will be the consequences of not declaring war?" โ
The enemy is not cool, and Sun hates Moyang and ghosts
He Yue picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "If you don't declare war, it will first cause an extremely adverse psychological impact on our army, since ancient times, the two armies have fought against each other and fought each other with the military heart, whose army can be concentric, who will definitely be able to win." What would the soldiers think if we did not declare war in the face of such an attack by the Medenos? The education we carry out in the army is to give the soldiers the courage to fight to the death against the enemy - but the fact that the Senate is still a turtle after the enemy's undeclared attack will inevitably make the soldiers doubt the army, their education, and the Senate. Coupled with our previous Shabak 'rebellion', the Senate army fought against itself, and hundreds of casualties were generated, which has already caused us an extremely negative impact, and if we do not declare war on the Medeno people at this moment, the consequences must not be what we can predict. โ
The sound of the teacup smashing on the table this time came from Xiao Mingwei, "Comrades, you are soldiers!" It's an officer! The safety of the Senate is on your shoulders, do you use such an attitude to defend China and defend the Senate? There are so many of you who have served in the army, don't you understand the reason for giving up your small family to protect everyone? Soldiers are made to obey orders! As long as the Senate chooses war, then we must be fully engaged in how to fight the war," he said, standing up angrily and pointing to the complaining senators, "Are you still young?" Now you're all men! It's not a kid anymore! From the moment you step into the barracks, you don't know how to be a soldier? I repeat! After the meeting is adjourned, no one is allowed to leave, and they can only go back after making a battle plan! โ
"Well, we'll think about it. An executive committee meeting will be held tonight to 'submit' the resolution to the plenary session of the Senate for a vote," Yang Minghuan nodded in understanding, and continued, "After all, going to war is a major matter, and a decision can only be made through a plenary vote. โ
"Okay, anyway, basically the 'door' of our military department will vote in favor." "It's like, it's finally going to war!" A group of military veterans smiled. But a voice dispelled their happiness for a moment, "By the way, after the meeting is dismissed, all the veterans of the 'Gate' of the Military Department will stay," Xiao Mingwei said and stood up, "We must discuss and come up with a number of combat plans to 'hand' over to the Executive Committee, so that they can decide how to wage war against the Medenors." โ
"Isn't it? This matter still needs to be voted on! "That is, there has not been a vote yet, and the battle plan has not yet been made?"
The enmity is far away, the ship is far away, the battle is lonely, and the battlefield is far away
"You can think easily enough," He Yue sat aside and said coldly, "You think that if you want to fight, you just rush out and kill, kill as many people as you want, and come back?" That's just a small soldier to consider, all of you here are now high-ranking officers in the Senate, heads of various departments, you have to think about the problem from a strategic level, not at this tactical level. Even if it is to attack the port of Wenshan, the march plan, the retreat plan, the occupation steps, the occupation policy and the administrative personnel to be taken away are all things to consider, the Soviets at that time in order to prepare for the blitzkrieg of NATO, but even the road signs were ready. We have to do the same. โ
"Huh? Is it so troublesome? "I'm dizzy, my 'girlfriend' friend is still waiting for me to go back to dinner together!" "Then I'll have to call my mom to cancel dinner." "You're still having dinner with your mother? Don't you eat in the cafeteria every day? "What about my wife?" She doesn't like to sleep alone! โ
"Bang" The sound of the teacup smashing on the table this time came from Xiao Mingwei, "Comrades, you are soldiers!" It's an officer! The safety of the Senate is on your shoulders, do you use such an attitude to defend China and defend the Senate? There are so many of you who have served in the army, don't you understand the reason for giving up your small family to protect everyone? Soldiers are made to obey orders! As long as the Senate chooses war, then we must be fully engaged in how to fight the war," he said, standing up angrily and pointing to the complaining senators, "Are you still young?" Now you're all men! It's not a kid anymore! From the moment you step into the barracks, you don't know how to be a soldier? I repeat! After the meeting is adjourned, no one is allowed to leave, and they can only go back after making a battle plan! โ
"Then ...... to eat," someone asked weakly, but was immediately glared back by Xiao Mingwei, "There is a canteen in Bunker Hill, even if you don't have food here, you can send it to the canteen in the old district with a phone call!" Don't you all want to fight? Then I'm going to show you what it means to prepare for war! โ
