Chapter 293: Jiang Someone Arrives
Now no one knows that Xiao Weiguo is a Chinese who has crossed over, not even his favorite people, Anna and Bai Wanrou. Xiao Weiguo was a patriotic ordnance expert in his previous life, and now the motherland is in trouble, so he will go back to help him say anything, although Xiao Weiguo knows that just by helping China build an aircraft factory and provide some technologically advanced fighters, it is unrealistic to want to defeat Little Japan, but at least it can give China some ability to counter Little Japan! Everything can only be done to the best of God's fate.
Of course, Xiao Weiguo can't say that he likes or hates the current Chinese government and the leader of the Chinese government, Jiang someone. Although he was an expert in the arms industry of the Republic, he was not interested in politics, and the victory of the War of Resistance against Japan was the result of the flesh and blood of the people of the whole country. Although the history books say that Jiang was passive and resistant, Xiao Weiguo believes that every Chinese hopes that their motherland will be strong and prosperous, and who will see the Japanese occupy their own land and slaughter their compatriots and feel at ease!
As early as when Jiang studied in Japan, he had an understanding of the Japanese national character and believed that China and Japan would fight. Once, when a Japanese instructor was in a biology class, he pointed to a piece of mud on the table and said that there were 30,000 parasites in it as many as Chinese, which angered the young and vigorous old Jiang, who was then going up to the podium and dividing the mud into several parts, and only the smallest piece said that there were more parasites in it than the Japanese...... When he was 22 years old in Japan, he wrote a poem that expressed his ambition at that time: "Tengteng's murderous spirit is all over the world, and his strength is not as good as others? Just after I finish my responsibility, how can Donglai Zhi be a marquis? Chiang once stated in his diary that he did not like politics, writing: "Politics makes people live like dogs...... Where is morality? Where is the friendship? But for the sake of the country, for the sake of the people, he had to get involved in politics and become a master. Autumn 1927. When Jiang went to Japan, he replied to reporters that the historical figures he admired the most were Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang, and the great figures he admired the most were Sun Yat-sen. As soon as Chiang came to power, he had already begun to prepare for war against Japan.
In fact, as early as not long after the "918" incident, Jiang wrote in his diary on October 7, 1931: "The relationship between this war against Japan is not the victory or defeat of the battle. And the growth and decline of the national spirit, and the survival of the personality of the husband's country. Yu Gu is well aware that the inherent courage and determination of our people have long been lost, and relying on momentary excitement and not long-term perseverance will not only benefit the country, but will also lead to a hasty demise. Thoughtful and unscrupulous. And what is left to do is in my own conscience and personality, as well as in the revolutionary spirit and doctrine. Therefore, Yu Zhi has made up his mind, if the Japanese invaders force our government to a desperate situation. If our nation is forced to have no room for independent survival, we will not care about success or failure, but we can only stand up, fight to the death, and sacrifice ourselves to show the personality of our country and carry forward the spirit of the nation. ”
At that time, Jiang "knew the strength of the two sides, and rushed to fight like this." Only self-defeat. Chiang's strategy, therefore, was to avoid an outbreak of all-out resistance to Japan as much as possible. In order to gain time to form more divisions and regiments, build munitions enterprises, and build national capabilities capable of fighting against Japan. In 1934, Chiang reorganized the National Defense Design Committee established for the anti-Japanese resistance into the "Resources Committee", which was directly under the "Military Committee" directly under Chiang's direct leadership, and established military factories and heavy industries in Hunan, Sichuan, Hubei and other large rear areas.
So. Jiang also attaches great importance to the Dragon Soul Aircraft Manufacturing China Co., Ltd., which is jointly established by the Dragon Soul Ordnance Consortium and the Chinese government, and the completion of the production base of the Dragon Soul Aircraft Manufacturing China Co., Ltd. indicates that the Dragon Soul Aircraft Manufacturing China Co., Ltd. will soon be able to devote itself to the manufacture of aircraft. But just to make the M30 transport aircraft, Jiang felt that it was not enough. What he wants is for the Dragon Soul Ordnance Consortium to introduce the most advanced aviation weapons, such as fighter and bomber technology, and to develop China's most cutting-edge military aviation technology in the city of Chongqing.
In addition to showing the importance he attaches to the Dragon Soul Aircraft Manufacturing China Co., Ltd. and China's aviation industry, the most important thing is to meet with Xiao Weiguo and ask Xiao Weiguo to introduce the most advanced aviation technology and weapons technology of the Dragon Soul Ordnance Industry Consortium to prepare for the modernization of the Chinese army's weapons and equipment. Jiang is well aware of the gap between the Chinese army and the Japanese army, especially in terms of weapons and equipment, the gap between the two is too large, and this is the main reason for the defeat of the Chinese army, at least Jiang thinks so. Therefore, he urgently needs a large number of weapons and equipment to modernize the equipment of the Chinese army, and even surpass the Japanese army in some aspects, so as to achieve certain asymmetric advantages, so as to defeat Japan in a larger Sino-Japanese war that may break out in the future.
Because China is ill-prepared in every way. At the very beginning of the war, it was discovered that there was no medical treatment for the wounded soldiers, and the whole country had to mobilize 3 million to 5 million troops to resist the Japanese, but the whole army only had 1 million rifles, and the average ammunition produced by the arsenal was only 4 rounds per soldier per month. When Stilwell was a military attache in China, he personally saw that in the 1938 Battle of De'an, Jiangxi, there was a royal regiment, and the whole regiment should be equipped with 100 units, but in fact there were only 4 light machine guns, each equipped with 200 rounds of ammunition. Therefore, from the number of weapons and equipment of these armies, we can imagine how backward the Chinese army is, and to change all this, the only way to change this is to rely on the Chinese to produce more and more advanced weapons. The Nationalist Government made Nanjing its capital, but it assumed the $667 million foreign debt accumulated by successive Beijing governments. Moreover, at this time, China was only superficially unified, and the national resources controlled by the Nanjing government were extremely limited, and it was obviously not the best choice to buy weapons with foreign exchange. Only by producing by ourselves can we save costs and not be controlled by others.
Jiang, who knew all this, pinned his hopes on German aid, especially Xiao Weiguo's Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex. He has also been paying close attention to the development trend of the Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex through the "Gu's Defense Weekly", and knows that the Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex has developed jet engines, turboprop engines, and jet aircraft, etc., and for such advanced aviation weapons, of course he wants to get, if he can overwhelm the Japanese in the weapons and equipment of the Air Force, then the war between China and Japan will start, and the Chinese army will not suffer from Japanese bombing. Even, by relying on advanced aviation weapons to gain air supremacy, it is possible for the Chinese army to defeat the Japanese and regain the northeast that is now occupied by Japan.
Under such circumstances, knowing that Xiao Weiguo had arrived in Chongqing ahead of schedule, Jiang couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly flew from Nanjing to Chongqing, and also landed at the airport of Dragon Soul Aircraft Manufacturing China Co., Ltd. (To be continued.) )
