The benefits of doing business with a gun are obvious.

A large number of munitions and materials are constantly produced, a large number of workers get jobs, not only the arsenal, the industrial system is a chain, it is a net, the arsenal begins to produce, it needs raw materials, then the steel plant starts to operate, the iron and steel plant needs iron ore and coke, the coal mine and coking plant start to operate, the iron ore and coal need to be transported, and the shipping and even the shipbuilding industry can also get benefits. Textile mills began to produce military uniforms and quilts, silk reeling factories and spinning mills benefited, and then silkworm farmers and cotton farmers received income.

After all the workers have received a continuous income, they will start to consume, radios, telephones, bicycles, cars will enter their purchase list, and when the economy rolls, the net will begin to expand, and a new round of economic growth will come.

However, it is not so easy, it is just a small stimulus, and it is impossible for such a huge economy of China to begin to return to prosperity, unless it is a war of the scale of a world war, it is impossible to bring the world economy back to a boom period again, and it will still struggle in depression for many years.

This is the trouble of a free economy, to enjoy efficiency and to endure depression.

Such troubles did not exist in the Soviet Russian economic model.

Everything went according to plan.

Plans are made by people, so in the final analysis, it is necessary to control people, and the methods of controlling people are collectively called power techniques.

Stalin's never been a man of the same path as Vladimir, he was a pragmatist through and through, he had no idealistic spiritual cleanliness at all, as long as he could achieve his goal, he dared to do anything, he could do anything, without any psychological burden, in order to raise funds for the Soviets, he robbed banks many times, and his behavior was worse than that of the Green Gang in Shanghai.

After Vladimir's death, Stalin's New Economic Policy was maintained for several years, and when the economy of Soviet Russia was completely restored to the pre-war and pre-war period, he immediately began to implement the construction of a large economy, adopting a planned model in industry and a collective farm system in agriculture.

In 29, Stahlin announced that "to hell with the NEP," and then sent more than 20,000 specially trained personnel, known as the '25,000-man brigade', to mobilize the villages.

The methods of these 'professional' personnel were indeed very professional, and by deporting 1.2 million 'kulaks' as typical to the Arctic Circle, or by public shooting, it was easy to get other peasants to 'voluntarily' join the collective farms.

Because they were too eager or pressed too hard, the result was a very tragic internal conflict, and the common people slaughtered a large number of their own cattle before joining the collective farms, because the cattle were no longer their own, so the Russian peasants slaughtered two-thirds of the horses, four-fifths of the cattle, five-sixths of the pigs and 85% of the sheep in the collectivization movement.

The loss of large livestock would have greatly reduced the efficiency of agricultural production without mechanization, and after the loss of labor incentives under the large collective system, the general laziness would greatly reduce the quality of cultivation.

The loss of the rich peasants who knew how to cultivate best, the quality of cultivation had already decreased, coupled with the sabotage under the collective system, and the superficial production, it was impossible for the Soviet Russian top to be unclear about these situations, and Stalin soon knew the result, but he did not think about the deep-seated reasons.

Stalin, who thought about détente, immediately criticized the work of the 20,000-strong brigade in the countryside for violating the principle of 'voluntariness' and began to allow the peasants to leave the collective farms.

Stalin's optimism was that he believed that most of the people still joined voluntarily, and that only a small number of them were invited by the wrong means by the comrades who were actively working, and he guessed wrong, and when the policy was announced, a large number of peasants left the collective farms, and after the autumn harvest, they were basically gone.

Stalin, a politician, understands that he has been deceived by the people below, not a small number of people who are forced to join, but everyone who does not join voluntarily.

But instead of immediately carrying out reforms, he changed his previous policy, no longer allowing the peasants to leave the collective farms, and began to impose collectivization, raising the slogan 'Whoever does not join the collective farms is the enemy of the Soviets', and Stalin, without illusions, understood that his policy was unpopular.

But knowing that his policy is unpopular, why do he still implement it? Is this person cruel?

No, this is not moral, just as a certain country in later generations knows the historical lessons of Soviet Russia, and still wants to learn from the collectivization movement of Soviet Russia, which is an inevitable means of developing industry.

After collectivization, the development of agriculture in Soviet Russia was greatly regressed, and the output did not catch up with the tsarist era, but the amount of grain requisitioned quadrupled compared with before collectivization, and this is the reason for everything: it was easier to extract the surplus value of the peasants.

Through the establishment of collective farms, Soviet Russia completed a strict system of requisition, in which they requisitioned grain at prices far below the cost of production, and the peasants could not have any enthusiasm at all.

As a result, people have to sell their rations to the state at low prices and then buy subsistence food on the black market, which is six times higher than the price of flour requisitioned by the state.

In this case, famine was inevitable, and sadly, in tsarist times, Ukraine owned 90% of the entire Russian grain cultivation area and 85% of the sugar beet cultivation area, and such a rich place flowing with honey actually had a famine. Soviet Russia later said that this was a natural disaster, but bizarrely, across the river, there were also Ukrainians living in the land of western Ukraine controlled by Poland, but no disaster occurred, and the Ukrainians on the Russian side could swim across the river to get relief from their fellow tribesmen.

What is even more tragic is that on the one hand, some people are starving to death, and on the other hand, Soviet Russia is exporting a large amount of grain, sending police and troops to the countryside to requisition grain, and taking away the grain grown by farmers, causing 4 million people to starve to death in Ukraine, the breadbasket of Europe, and later generations have statistics that it is 8 million people, and even the Ukrainian government says that there are 10 million people.

It doesn't matter how many people there are, as long as there is a large-scale starvation of people, then basically the entire nation is starving, and the deepest impression of people is hunger, and this memory will accompany a whole generation, which is why when Adolf's Nazi army entered Ukraine, it was generally welcomed by Ukrainians, until Goering, the stupid racist fat man, after the policy of extermination in Ukraine, there was a large-scale uprising in Ukraine.

Later generations of Ukraine called this famine the genocidal policy of Soviet Russia, which was deliberately believed to create famine and deliberately exterminate the Ukrainian nation, for which there were many spat lawsuits with Russia.

But not only Russia, the whole world knows at this time, Britain knows, France knows, and the United States also knows, but Churchill and Roosevelt are silent, because it is the Russians who die, from the perspective of the country, no one wants other countries to be strong, and the Russians are starving their own people to industrialization, which is a precursor to collapse in the eyes of Britain and the United States at that time.

But they made a mistake, and Soviet Russia used the lives of its own people to build a super industrial system, which finally gave Russia for the first time an economic power that could compete with the world's first power.

Stalin, of course, knew that the peasants did not have enough to eat, that the state was oppressing the peasants, that the peasants called the collective farms the second serfdom, and of course that the peasants were starving to death en masse, but the industrial plan could not be stopped, the orders that had been placed had to be purchased, and the machinery and equipment had to be imported, but where did the money come from? Of course, it is necessary to come from agriculture, and buy machinery and equipment from China by exporting grain to the European market in exchange for foreign exchange.

So whether the Ukrainian peasants are active or not, they have to produce so much food, whether they starve to death or not, they have to come up with this money for industrialization.

Stalin's courage to oppress the peasants in this way, and to oppress the peasants as slaves of industrialization, was because he knew that the unorganized peasants could not confront the organized machinery of violence, and that there had been tens of thousands of peasant uprisings in collectivization, all of which had been suppressed. According to statistics, at the most time in Soviet Russia, there were 50 million people in re-education through labor, accounting for a quarter of the population.

After the first five-year plan, the number of military-related machine building increased ninefold compared with the time of Tsarist Russia, and the number of workers in large industries increased from 3 million to 6 million. At the same time, 20 million peasant households in the countryside were incorporated into collective farms, and more than 2,000 tractor stations were set up to replace lost manpower with mechanical production.

It can be seen that this is actually industrialization, the mechanization of agricultural labor, and the industrialization of the agricultural population, but it has taken a different path from Britain and the United States, and the price paid is more.

Of course, this kind of thing can only be done by people with cultural concepts like Stalin, and it can't be done by Churchill, Roosevelt, or Yang Chao.

Because Churchill and Roosevelt are social elites from the rich class, their worldview is different from that of people like Starling, because they grew up in different environments, and they face different competitive pressures, the Churchill family is a big nobleman, Churchill himself was born in a palace-like estate, the Roosevelt family can be traced back to the first generation of immigrants in the United States, his uncle was president, Roosevelt himself worked in the banking industry, and his inheritance is as high as millions of dollars.

Roosevelt, Churchillby's Stalin, is like a pet dog living in the owner's mansion and a wild dog on the prairie outside, there is also conflict and competition between pet dogs, but in their eyes, the purpose of competition is just the difference between you eating meat or gnawing bones, and in the eyes of Stalin, competition is the difference between you eating one bite and I will starve to death.

Therefore, one tends to let others live well, and the other thinks that if they want to live, others will have to die.

So Roosevelt and others at least couldn't do the horrific thing of starving a tenth of the population to death for the sake of industrialization, and in Stalin's eyes, these are not a thing, he knows the situation of starving people in Ukraine and other places, but he thinks that "the death of one person is a tragedy, and the death of a few thousand people is just a statistic." ”

Those who hold this view obviously don't care how many people die.

However, Yang Chao did not dislike Starlin, because he knew that Starlin's choice was the only correct path, and he even admired Starlin's ruling methods a little, because Starlin was really proficient in the art of Eastern power. (To be continued.) )
