Chapter 333: The Origin of History (2)

The fall of Wuhan and the collective relocation of the high-level leaders of the national political axe to Chongqing gave Han Yunhua a big blow, but Han Yunhua recovered quickly, not because Han Yunhua's psychological quality was good, but because Han Yunhua figured out a key. What he has to do now is not to care about whether what he has done in the past two years is meaningful, but to do his best to lay a solid foundation for the take-off of the Chinese nation and the revival of the ancient Chinese civilization.

Of course, Nanchang is still occupied by the army as in history, and Wuhan has fallen as always, history seems to have played a big joke with him Han Yunhua, everything seems to have returned to the origin of history, but Han Yunhua knows that this is not the case, on the surface, it is still as in history to occupy an absolute advantage, even in 1944, when it was about to be defeated, it was still possible to launch a sweaty battle of Yuxianggui, and the national political axe could not be defeated. However, it is also very clear that some of the most basic conditions in the country are said to be an island country, limited by the basic national conditions of the country, almost all of the strategic materials and a large part of the civilian materials are extremely scarce, especially the main materials such as steel, oil, rubber and other major materials mainly rely on imports.

As we all know, imports require a lot of money, and the economic strength of the capital, which has just recovered from the economic crisis of the Great Depression and the Great Collapse, is not very strong. Although he implemented many effective methods to save the economic crisis, he was limited to the underdevelopment of the economy itself, which led him to choose to use foreign expansion and aggression against China to alleviate his own losses. However, as far as the current situation is concerned, although the spread of the economic crisis has been temporarily contained by using the raw materials plundered from China and the vast markets in eastern China, it is still some time before the economy can fully recover. Of course, there is a historical basis for all this, and according to the records of the military war, at the time of the "77" incident, it was said that "the gold reserves, including the reserve for the issuance of paper money, were all only 1.35 billion yuan"; As far as the scale of the war is concerned, it is actually its gold reserves that play a role in restricting the scale of the war. It means that the amount of positive currency reserves in the book has limited the war from the beginning.

From the very beginning of this war, the Chinese people were not the lambs in his imagination, and the mysterious and magical Chinese anti-Yue troops gave the Yue army great casualties. In the end, it led to the launch of a war, but he did everything possible to "seek an early solution". As everyone knows, fighting a war is not only about the weaponry and the quality of the soldiers, but also about fighting a war in a contest of comprehensive national strength. The military is important, but the economy is the most important support. If there is no strong economy as a backing, no matter how powerful the army is, it is a paper tiger, and when your excellent soldiers do not have a bullet in their excellent rifles, you will suddenly find that the economy is actually an important core of war.

In order to maintain the war of aggression against China, he made relatively adequate preparations and imported a large number of strategic materials, and the total amount of military supplies imported from overseas in the 12th year of Showa (1937) alone reached 960 million yuan. Most of these were imported from the United States on the west coast of the ocean, and both the quantity and the price were a big drain. In June of the following year, in order to carry out the Battle of Wuhan, the country tightened its belt, and the whole country donated money and materials to support the political axe to fight the war. However, at that time, the economy was on the verge of collapse, and in order to build more troops, even the rifles used by school instructors in the country were withdrawn and used to equip the expanded army.

This is only a manifestation of the economic recession in the country, but Han Yunhua knows better that this is only a superficial thing, and it cannot actually show the people the internal deterioration of the economy. As an elite commander of a republic in the new century, Han Yunhua knew exactly what that meant. According to the records of the war history, due to the needs of the war, a large number of young and strong people were transferred from China to join the army, and the continuous increase in the number of soldiers directly led to the shortage of labor, food, and energy in the country. By 1939, after the end of the Battle of Wuhan, the country's military expenditure had reached 6.156 billion yuan, far exceeding the country's reserves, thus sharply reducing the country's poverty in human strength and losing its ability to fully guarantee the supply of military materials to the army.

If an army loses sufficient logistical support, then the combat effectiveness of this army can be imagined. However, this is not absolute, just like the Eighth Route Army led by [***] and a large number of guerrillas do not need so much logistical support, and they are still strong in battle, because this army has been fighting without adequate logistical support since its formation. From this aspect alone, the Yue Army is no match for the Eighth Route Army in any way. It is precisely because of this reason that the pain and pressure of the head of the Central Command Department have been greatly aggravated, so much so that his chief of staff and the land minister have proclaimed: "A strong foreign force and a cadre in the middle are a portrayal of what our country is saying today, and it will not be able to maintain it for a long time."

By consulting some post-war historical materials and reading the autobiographies of some veteran generals, Han Yunhua knew that roughly after the Battle of Wuhan, the establishment, equipment, and combat effectiveness of the troops had generally decreased compared with before the battle. This is also an important reason why Ben had no choice but to change its political and military strategy in an attempt to "use China to contain China" and "use war to feed war."

Although Han Yunhua's two years of hard fighting still failed to change China's disadvantage, Han Yunhua also figured out that he was just an ordinary soldier who had a little bit of historical trend. Compared with the long river of the entire history, he is just a drop in the ocean, and he is nothing. Of course, compared with the eight-year-long war related to the inheritance of Chinese civilization, Han Yunhua's personal strength is very small. But Han Yunhua knew very well that he was now just doing what the most ordinary Chinese children could do, and what he had to do, and the result was unpredictable.

Moreover, Han Yunhua still recognizes the achievements he has made in the past two years, especially the base area of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, which stretches for hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, which is the largest and most stable anti-Japanese base area established so far. This not only expands its own strength, but also greatly weakens the enemy's strength. Originally, the Saibei area was an area under his control, and it was the largest area for the supply of war horses to the army, but now, isn't it that Han Yunhua underestimated those soldiers, the strategic materials and military land invested by the army in the Saibei area were enough to fight a resounding battle, and the puppet army that lost here was countless, and Han Yunhua set up tens of thousands of prisoners of war in dozens of large mining prisoner camps in the Baotou area, of which 90% were Yue himself. This is what he Han Yunhua has done to China and the entire Chinese nation in the past two years, whether it has changed the fate of China Han Yunhua is not clear, but he knows that it has really weakened the strength of the army.

This is enough, as long as it is beneficial to the Chinese nation, Han Yunhua will unswervingly carry it out. Even if it is not possible to change China's fate in a short period of time, then Han Yunhua will secretly make up his mind to consume the war potential of the book to the greatest extent, so that the book will open fire on the United States and other Western powers this year or less, and then Han Yunhua will be confident that he will be able to do so in a very short time
