Chapter 811: Qingdao Future
Qingdao, Cai Gong and others did not know at all, those Japanese who fled, the information had been sent back to Japan, this for them, there is no meaning, total annihilation is to annihilate most of the living forces of the Japanese, not to completely kill all the Japanese, this is an open land, and after the night, a casual run, as long as the bold, understand a little Chinese, it will be very difficult to find them, and it is not pleasing to contribute.
Besides, encircling points to send reinforcements, under certain circumstances, it takes time to consolidate the defensive position, but it does not mean that the information must not be leaked out, if there is no intelligence at all, what points are still surrounded, what kind of reinforcements are fought, the biggest result is to completely annihilate the 30,000 people in the encirclement, these are already predetermined results.
3 days have passed, Shenwei Mitsutomi's side, there is no fortification to dig, but the northwest side is still continuing, not only digging inside, but also digging outside, when the personnel and equipment of the three production and construction corps come up, this piece of plain near the sea, has become a large construction site, mechanized operation, far more than one person, when the excavator down, digging up dozens of cubic meters of soil at one time, a machine is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of people, a larger range of encirclement began to form.
Steel, cement, and even artillery, this is not a one-time project, but a semi-system project, consisting of 6 shore-based batteries to form a large-scale protection system, not only internally, but also externally, towering batteries, relying on the height of the hills, coupled with the dense battle forts and positions next to it, as long as a sufficient number of troops are stationed, it can withstand 5 times. Even 10 times the enemy's attack.
Kamio Mitsutomi didn't know anything about this. What he saw was still the Northwest Army on the opposite side. A little bit of perfect fortifications, if before, he didn't have the heart to counterattack, now, it's even more so, the iron wall of protection, so that he can't attack at all, and if he fights, he will lose his troops.
Because of the reduction in personnel, most of them washed up among the ships on the shore. There is still about half of the supplies of the entire army, which is enough to support a month, the biggest problem is the water source, in the defensive area, there are 3 mouths, and after the continuous excavation of the Japanese army, it is barely enough to use, he doesn't have to worry about this, the only thing he worries about is his mentality. In the face of a deadly siege, he could only cheer as much as he could, but his morale was still declining, and Kamio Mitsutomi knew it very well. Now in addition to the elite troops in the 18th Division, there is still a little combat effectiveness, and others. It's almost all scrapped, and it's okay if the other party doesn't attack. Once attacked, it was a plate of scattered sand. Irresistible.
Kamio Mitsutomi had never encountered such a scene, but after thinking about it in his spare time, he found that he did not have the slightest chance, yes, after boarding the ship from Tokyo, there was no slightest chance, unless the combined fleet of the Navy was not close to Qingdao, was not ambushed by the naval guns on the shore, and there was a glimmer of hope, after that, fate could not be changed, even if he went to attack the opponent's defense that night, the result would be worse, 80,000 people, maybe not even 3 days to resist, will be annihilated.
Qingdao, in the base camp, after getting Cai Yi's affirmative answer, Yang Yuanzhao has put his mind on other things, the matter of the battle, Cai Yi and others are in charge, and they have surrounded these Japanese troops, with an area of less than 10 square kilometers, plus the distance between the two sides to receive fire, the opponent's defense line has been compressed to a fairly small distance, in this case, victory is certain, the key is, what kind of victory, what kind of victory is achieved, and whether the results can be expanded in the end, Cai Ye and others have tried their best to do this, and it depends on how Japan chooses.
Qingdao was handed over to the northwest by the Germans, even if it was stationed in advance, Qingdao has a lot of things, the current city management of Qingdao, daily maintenance and development, are taken over by the northwest, in order to make Qingdao play the greatest effect, it also needs to be adjusted, the development methods of the Germans are completely different from the northwest, even if it is Qingdao port, the Germans are also satisfied with an ordinary port and military port, without taking into account the follow-up, the same as a good port, Qingdao and Shanghai are almost the difference between heaven and earth, although Shanghai with the help of the Yangtze River waterwayBut in the north as a whole, the density of the railway network far exceeds that in the south.
The north is dominated by plains, some are just some big rivers, as long as some key bridges are built successfully, you can quickly lay out the railway network, but in the south, it is dense rivers, rivers and lakes in the water towns south of the Yangtze River have become obstacles to the construction of railways, in addition to some major arteries, branch lines and small railways are less, especially the Yangtze River Bridge, under the requirements of Yang Yuanzhao, must reach a height of more than 60 meters, in order to ensure that the main channel of the Yangtze River can pass 10,000-ton giant ships, which has become a huge constraint on the dense railway network, From this point of view, Qingdao has the prerequisites to become a large-scale maritime hub.
The core and industrial production capacity of the entire Northwest Department is in the north, and while the railway is smooth, Qingdao can become an effective supplement to Shanghai, and even become one of the important passages to the sea in the Northwest. Qingdao as the first port in the northwest, certainly in the future status, will not be lower than Shanghai, in the urban planning without a major change under the premise, the construction of the port must be advanced, the annual throughput of 50 million tons of wharf is to have, and even need to have further improvement capacity, with the expansion experience of the Basra port, the northwest in the expansion of Qingdao port, their own can, at most some design problems, let the German design help, a large number of raw materials, The production and construction corps of the three armies, which are part of the port construction army, will be put into the construction of Qingdao together with the other two armies that arrived in Qingdao in advance after the design drawings come out.
1.5 million people, tens of thousands of professional machinery, as well as crane cranes and other lifting tools, one-fifth of them, have participated in the construction of Basra port skilled workers, as long as the basic port drawings come out, the construction speed will be very fast.
Population is China's huge burden, the world's major events, divided for a long time must be divided for a long time, the key is the population, when the land can not carry a huge population, war will inevitably happen, this is also the reason for the change of dynasty once in hundreds of years, even if you rule well, you can't change, at most delay his time.
The emergence of Yang Yuanzhao has changed this qiē, the input in agriculture is the first change of Yang Yuanzhao, large farms, chemical fertilizers, scientific planting methods, so that agriculture harvests more, under the satisfaction of the problem of eating, began to invest in industry, the huge population has produced huge dividends, which is also the fundamental place where Chinese commodities sweep the world, under the scientific regulation and control, millions, even tens of millions of mobilization and mobilization capabilities, is not a problem.
For the transformation of Qingdao, not only the port, even if it is a 10-million-ton wharf, the personnel needed cannot be 1.5 million, these people are responsible for handling the entire Qingdao, and even the construction of Jiaozhou Bay, from Qingdao as the core, a series of port cities, will form a huge port belt, with Qingdao as the center, radiating around. ,
In addition to the port, the layout of the city also needs large-scale improvements, industrial areas, warehousing, and even some future commercial banks and the like, all need to be planned in advance, the northwest to get Qingdao, paid a huge amount of money, always let these funds get enough income, Qingdao's future must be better than now.
Excellent design and planning have turned Jiaozhou Bay into a huge construction site, where all kinds of equipment and raw materials are piled up, and Yang Yuanzhao and some German designers, engineers and designers trained in the northwest have planned and designed the future of Qingdao Port.
Europe has already started a war, under the premise of the war, the center of the whole Germany has turned to the military, a project that has nothing to do with the military has been compressed, under the premise of the extreme lack of personnel in the army, even designers of the right age may be recruited into the army, this is not a joke, under the army of millions, a big soldier, how many people pay attention, maybe a careless, will become cannon fodder.
No one wants to be cannon fodder, in this case, the Northwest to design needs, with real money, recruited a large number of designers from Germany, and even some firms, the whole institute was recruited to China, Germany's rigorous and scientific design concept, combined with the design of the Northwest industry, large clusters, became the highlight of China's development in 1913, among them, Qingdao is the most important one.
Large port, 18 satellite ports of different sizes, and the main port of Qingdao perfectly combined, in which, and concentrated military port, shipbuilding and large-scale industrial zone, the northwest in the construction of this point, there is enough experience, steel structure to form a standardized workshop, and the northwest of the large machine qì combined, enough to fill the entire hundreds of square kilometers of the area, when workers and families concentrated, Qingdao will in an instant, from such a small city, into a huge city beyond the world's imagination, The population could exceed 10 million.
Of course, these are just long-term prospects, Qingdao's construction plan, will be reasonably allocated to 2-3 years, and even now, has not been thoroughly implemented, only this area near Qingdao has been changed, for no other reason, this is still a war zone, there are tens of thousands of Japanese troops in the encirclement, in the future, whether there is a war, it is not easy to say, don't build a good industrial zone was destroyed in the war.
The construction is not in a hurry for the time being, but the design must be set in advance, a huge new city that is enough to go down in history, a modern industrial city and port in the East, even if there is no premise of the arrival of war, will make these Germans go all out, not to mention more than 1,000 assistants and ten times the personnel, so that the city hall, the sand table of the new Qingdao is increasing rapidly, and gradually improving, this is a huge project.
