Chapter 233

I have to say that the huge power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs that can intervene in everything has helped Andrei a lot, Comrade Xie Lepin, a workaholic, was fooled by Andrei, as a cadre with a high sense of responsibility, Xie Leping is also busy thinking about countermeasures, after all, the people take food as the sky!

It wasn't until the evening that Sherepin left and left with thick materials written by himself, Andrei saw the power of the Eagle of the Komsomol and deserved to be a young cadre valued by Khrushchev in the future, although the shortcomings were obvious but he was indeed a responsible and responsible person, looking at the distant Sherepin, Andrei remembered his old partner Brezhnev, who was able to clean up Sherepin in the end, and found that Brezhnev and Sherepin were capable and level. If this is after the war, I will have to have a good relationship and hug my thighs!

And what Andrei didn't know was that the discussion between him and Sherepin went directly to Beria's desk at night, and Beria couldn't laugh or cry after carefully understanding the cause and effect, this Andrei is still frizzy and frizzy, a little talented in military affairs but this other aspect is really too tender, but this simple and direct style is the same style of the Ministry of Internal Affairs!

And when Beria took this report to the Kremlin, Stalin looked at it with great interest, you must know that the old and difficult problems of Soviet agriculture have been troubled, especially during the two five-year plans, when in order to raise funds for industry, the peasants can be said to have paid too much, so that agriculture has been difficult, you must know that the Soviet Union can be large-scale industrial mechanized agricultural production, the productivity is actually higher than that of Tsarist Russia, but Tsarist Russia is a grain exporter, and the Soviet Union is indeed an importer. A large amount of grain was replaced with technology and equipment at the beginning, and now if there were no such things, what would the Soviet Union defend against Germany!

Stalin read an interesting passage

For a country to start industrialization, three conditions are generally required: raw capital, a free and large labor force, and continuous input. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 For an agrarian country, however, the surest and only source of raw capital is land. This was also the reason for Stalin's collectivization of agriculture - the concentration of land, the primitive capital, in the hands of the state.

Then the continued exploitation of agriculture to feed the nascent industry: since it is the exploitation of agriculture, the "surplus value" of the peasants - the surplus grain - is naturally forced to be handed over to the state in exchange for industrial equipment on the international market.

But you must know that the industrialization of no house is completed by starving people, in fact, the food production of the Soviet Union is not so low, but the huge scissors difference is to hurt the Soviet peasants to the fullest, but now I can't take care of so much (this you can find on the Internet is also the official grain production over the years, the data of the Russian Federation from the 70s to the present, they have no need to beautify the Soviet period, when the total amount of grain production in the Soviet Union was not so low, A lot of food is mainly feed, and there is also a huge consumption of wine, and waste and corruption are also big factors)

In fact, in the policy of expropriation back then, Moscow left surplus grain for the peasants, but in Ukraine there was a starvation of people, you must know that manpower is actually a precious resource, there is no way for an agricultural country to industrialize, there are no overseas colonies, you can only rely on the exploitation of the agricultural sector to accumulate primitive capital, which is understandable. However, if the peasants are exploited to death because of erroneous principles and policies, this is a mistake, and it is a mistake in the policy of industrialization. You must know that industrialization, it does not mean that I can get rid of the equipment and get the money, it doesn't matter if the peasants die, anyway, the money is in hand. So why does Britain still eat sheep and people?

You must know the major elements of production, capital, manpower, raw materials, etc. are indispensable, and at the same time, the products you produce must have a market. The old capitalist countries did not have these problems, anyway, there were colonies, and they did not worry about raw materials and markets, but the Soviet Union did not, so they could only treat the agricultural sector as a colony. What do you do when you have a colony?

First, you have to drive the peasants out of the land, into the cities, into the factories, so that you have industrial workers. It's like the British enclosure movement. It doesn't matter if you starve the peasants to death, but if you starve the whole peasantry, then where will you come from the industrial workers?

Second, what does it mean to have poor scissors? Buy your low-grade products at a low price, and then sell them to you at a high price after processing, which is called scissors difference. The industrial sector shears the agricultural sector is called the industrial and agricultural scissors poor. It doesn't matter if the peasants are poor, as long as the people don't die, they can cut a little bit, but who will you cut when the peasants die? Who do you sell your products to? Where do you get bad scissors?

In industrialization, people and capital are equally valuable resources, and wasting resources is a crime.

It can be said that Andrei's words are a bit rebellious, but he directly said that Stalin was completely inclined to heavy industry and actively introduced technology at the same time, and the Soviet Union exported grain, cultural relics, and raw materials in exchange for American and German technology!

In the early 20s, when the red businessman Hammer began his asbestos contracting adventures in the USSR, he could not imagine how backward the Soviet Union's industrial technology and equipment were. "I've never seen mining in my life done in such an archaic way. Workers use clumsy hand drills to dig ore and it usually takes about three days to drill a hole large enough to hold explosives. The blasted ore was carried up high steps in baskets on human backs, where workers sat in rows and smashed the stones with small hammers. After the ore has been cleaned, farmers transport it in small carts to the railway station, which is 10 miles away. "Primitive artisanal mining represented the general industrial level of the Soviet Union at that time, which was thousands of miles away from modern industry! Hammer's first thing was to update the equipment, he brought generators, imported pneumatic drills from the United States, replaced small hammers with mashers, and the mechanized manipulation became a local sensation. He replaced the traditional wooden saw with a chainsaw, and in a few minutes he completed the work of cutting trees and saws that used to take a whole day, and the Soviets within a radius of 50 miles came to see for themselves what strange things the "knife cuts cream" like the chainsaw was hiding.

Technology diffusion is first of all the introduction of equipment, followed by personnel training. Hammer brought in Ford's tractors, and he hired Ford engineers to train the Soviets on how to use them to pump water, saw, drive generators, and plow land. When their 50 tractors roared from the port to the city center, there was a great deal of panic, and the Soviets thought that American and British tanks were starting to invade. Later, when it was learned that it was a tractor for ploughing the land, thousands of farmers gathered along the way to watch the novelty shipped from the United States.

In March 1922, the first German military-industrial specialists came to the Soviet Union. A month later, the German Junkers aircraft company began construction of a modern aircraft factory in the Filet area on the outskirts of Moscow; The Krupp Arms Company began construction of a heavy artillery production enterprise in the southern part of the Soviet Union. Subsequently, the German military began to build flight practice schools, tank testing colleges, chemical weapons production plants, and submarine construction bases on the territory of the Soviet Union [13].

A large number of German military technical experts were sent to the Soviet Union to help Soviet engineers build a series of manufacturing plants for aircraft, tanks, large-caliber artillery, and chemicals. On the one hand, the Soviet Union has obtained extremely valuable advanced industrial technology diffusion, trained a large number of engineers in the military industry, and at the same time learned the skills of refined production management of German industries, which has greatly shortened the gap between the Soviet Union and the technological level of industrialized countries. On the other hand, these factories have enabled Germany to test new technologies and inventions in practice, to produce a wide range of heavy equipment and military aircraft prohibited by the Treaty of Versailles, and to maintain the world-leading level of German military technology. Germany, under the cover of the Soviet Union, evaded the supervision of Germany by the Anglo-French inspectors during the 5-year military-industrial cooperation.

In 1922-1927, the honeymoon period of Soviet-German military-industrial cooperation, which lasted for five years, was also a critical period in the debate within the Soviet Union on the path of industrialization. It was with the help of the German military industry that the USSR received the technology, equipment, experience and personnel necessary for industrialization. When the Soviet Union began its first five-year plan in 1928, the wheels of industrialization would rumble and turn as long as the diffusion of these valuable industrial technologies was magnified dozens of times.

It can be said that without this foundation of industrialization, the Soviet Union simply did not have enough strength to resist the invasion, but now the agricultural problem is indeed a big problem, although the United States and Britain also have food aid, but this agricultural problem has become a huge shortcoming of the Soviet Union!

And at the same time, Sherepin did not sleep but wrote the proposal intensively, and then handed it in, but compared to Andrei's report Sherepin's luck was worse, there was no way to go directly to Stalin!

The next day, Andrei got a notice to go to the Kremlin to meet Stalin, and when he came to the office, Andrei remembered the nonsense he said to Sherepin that day, and his heart was very bad, this Stalin wouldn't know, so Andrei walked into Stalin's office in the Kremlin in his heart!

As soon as Andrei entered, he saw Stalin in a gray military uniform and holding a pipe, Andrei raised his hand and saluted and said: "Report to Comrade Stalin, Major General Andrei Yalen Yakov came to report, please instruct!" ā€

And Stalin stood up and said to Andrei: "Andrey, I already know about the discussion between you and Comrade Sherepin about agriculture, and I have to say that young people sometimes have some different thinking, but it is not surprising that after all, I was also young!" Hearing this, Andrei thought in his heart, your old man was a famous robber in the Caucasus, known as a banker, and a lot of revolutionary funds were robbed at the beginning, Andrei secretly thought that maybe Stalin really had a huge interest in this robbery, after all, this is an empty glove white wolf!

Of course, Andrei didn't dare to say this idea, otherwise he would have gone to meet with Tukhachevsky and Pavlov, and maybe he could get together a table to play cards, so Andrei said: "Comrade Stalin, we are just discussing the issues of concern together, and we also want to do our best to serve the Great Patriotic War!" ā€
