"President, now the whole world is laughing at our navy, and even there are different voices in the country, is it too much sacrifice for our deal!"

"Then let Germany compensate the Navy for the loss of reputation, in short, you can't suffer!"

China's starting point aircraft carrier had an accident in a German port, which was indeed regarded as a joke by the media of various countries, but gradually everyone couldn't laugh, the Chinese aircraft carrier was not towed away by the tugboat as explained, but stayed in the German port, which does not seem to be so simple, but at this time Qiao Yu and Jiang Baili had already returned to China on the Zhenyuan to ride the wind and waves, and it was too late for Britain and France to take any action.

Sure enough, the news soon spread that the starting point was seriously damaged and difficult to recover, and then the German shipyard came out to China to make a request to sell the aircraft carrier to Germany in the name of scrapped ships.

At this point, Britain immediately became clear that China and Germany had joined forces to play tricks on themselves, and most of the accidents on the starting point were faked, and this was to sell the aircraft carrier to Germany.

In fact, since the Washington Conference, the British Navy has begun to degenerate into a regional powerhouse, and the Pacific region has been completely handed over to the United States and Japan, and what Britain wants to see is the European region.

But now, Germany, the biggest adversary, was going to have an aircraft carrier, which was unacceptable to the British in any case, and Britain immediately protested to China, demanding that China explain the problem of the starting point.

China's reply is also very happy, the starting point has been in service for a long time, the condition of the warship is getting worse and worse, China was also ready to retire the starting point after the end of this voyage, and now there is a problem in advance, it just so happens that China will be scrapped by the way, as for whether to sell a German shipyard, China has no intention of this regard.

Of course, anyone with a discerning eye knows that China is talking nonsense with its eyes open. Just when Qiao Yu left Germany. A $500 million interest-free loan has been credited to China's account, and Germany has sent a team of experts to assist China in building a 10,000-ton forging press, which is part of the aircraft carrier deal.

Although the British still do not know the full content of the deal, with the clues, the British can also judge that China sent an aircraft carrier to Germany in the name of China's subsequent visit, and an aircraft carrier is actually nothing to the UK. After all, Britain already has five or six aircraft carriers, but Britain is worried that Germany will quickly become an aircraft carrier power with China's technical support.

With Germany's shipbuilding capabilities, if the Starting Point was thoroughly studied, the Germans would be able to build three or four aircraft carriers in a short period of time, and by that time the British Empire's maritime supremacy would be crumbling.

Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain was in a headache at this time, and the old man was in a very difficult situation as soon as he came to power. In Europe, Germany and Italy rose rapidly, the European continent was swept by Nazism, fascist regimes were established in various countries, and India, the jewel in the crown of the British crown, fell into erosion again.

Especially this time China provided Germany with an aircraft carrier, not only Germany's naval technology will improve rapidly, but it may even mean that China will form an alliance with Germany, and the British Empire will really come to a certain day.

Chamberlain was well aware of the decline of England, but the old man was not willing to be the gravedigger of the empire. So the old man immediately launched a diplomatic move. Liaison with France, and then with the United States. Even Japan did not let go.

China's sale of aircraft carriers to Germany is a clear violation of the provisions of the Treaty on the Limitation of Naval Armaments, and countries should unite to put pressure on China to stop the deal before the aircraft carrier is finally sold to Germany.

Who knows that the old gentleman has not yet acted, the Japanese side took the lead in jumping out, announcing the launch of the new aircraft carrier Zuizuru, and then announced the news that the Shozuru is also about to be launched, the Japanese government said that the empire must establish a naval fleet that matches its own national strength, and will not be restricted by any treaty, Japan's determination to pursue a maritime power is unchangeable, and in the future Japan will build a larger and more advanced aircraft carrier!

The Combined Fleet is currently much weaker than both China and the United States, which is unacceptable to the island countries, and now that Japan has taken the Dutch East Indies, the finances are sufficient, and the frenzied construction of ships has become inevitable, in fact, their new first-class aircraft carrier has already had a plan, but it has just been announced in this world.

Japan took the lead in announcing its plan to expand its armed forces, as if it had opened Pandora's box, and the major powers were a little crazy, and the United States followed suit and announced a new shipbuilding plan.

In fact, there is a reason why Roosevelt did this, his new policy has been implemented for more than three years, in fact, it has reached a bottleneck, Roosevelt relies on government investment in infrastructure construction, and then let the country get out of the economic crisis, and most of the money invested by the government is borrowed, and then the government issues dollars, more than three years, this way can not be maintained, after all, the United States is far from being a superpower in later generations, and can exploit the whole world.

These interest rates alone were enough to give Roosevelt a headache, and in the face of a renewed stagnant economy, Roosevelt had no other choice but to set his sights on the expansion of armaments, and everyone went into battle shirtless and broke a new world.

Not only did the United States expand its army, but Roosevelt also managed to pass a militia training bill, which had never been done in the history of the United States, and Roosevelt referred to China's militia reserve system, which would require young adults of military service age to receive primary military training.

Of course, the American approach was quite ordinary, and the Red Russia's actions became bigger, and since Sorge's arrest, Russia's intelligence system in the Far East has been greatly damaged, and it has become more and more difficult to obtain information about China, and the Spanish Civil War has gradually become favorable to the fascists.

The Red Empire, which had faced many threats since its birth, began its own plan of rapid expansion, the army was expanded by one million, and Stalin also asked the Red Navy to demonstrate aircraft carriers, and if necessary, Russia was ready to build its own aircraft carriers!

All countries in the world are in a big situation, and the expansion of a country's military will inevitably cause a sense of crisis in other countries, so it is like dominoes, one link after another, more and more countries are involved, Germany is also rapidly expanding the Wehrmacht, as well as the SS, and Hitler also ordered the strengthening of naval and air forces.

Until now. Chamberlain suddenly realized that his actions had not formed an alliance to punish China. It also indirectly caused the world's arms expansion race, so the old man couldn't help but be exhausted for a while, but the British Empire could not help but grit its teeth to follow up, especially since Germany actually already had an aircraft carrier, and Britain had to increase its own strength.

This is true in England, and even more so in France, and now the French have gone mad. They put all their energy in the hands of the Maginot Line, and they wanted to make it an impenetrable perilous periscope, and Britain had the English Channel. France has the Maginot Line!

It was at this time that China and Germany finally reached an agreement to sell the starting point to Germany for $200 million. Of course, it is stated to the outside world that this is still a scrapped warship, and as for what Germany does with it, China does not care; China doesn't care why scrapped warships can be sold for $200 million; Why the Chinese Navy retains a large number of professionals is even more irrelevant.

Anyway, China sold warships to Germany, and as for what others want, they can think whatever they want! In fact

Qiao Yu did not expect that this arms sale would have such a huge effect, and the world would fall into a fiery arms race, which was a bit of a surprise for Qiao Yu. It was also expected. The Great Depression devastated on an unprecedented scale, and the effects are still there.

The U.S. economy is in trouble again. Germany has emerged from the crisis by relying on the expansion of its armaments, and its future troubles have also been revealed, and the country's policy has been completely controlled by the military-industrial complex, and it has embarked on the road of military expansion and cannot turn back.

In the face of the world's military expansion, China must also take action, and China's Ministry of Defense has recently come up with a plan to expand its army, and Wu Tong is reporting the situation to Qiao Yu.

"President, so far, all major countries are expanding their armies, among which the largest expansion is Japan, the Soviet Union and Germany, of which Japan has expanded its navy, the army standing division has also been increased to twenty-seven, and reserve corps is also being formed, of which three divisions are placed in Borneo, and two divisions are placed in Java and Sumatra, and there are five divisions in South Korea, and one and a half divisions in the Outer Northeast, these forces have posed a certain threat to China, In addition, the expansion of the Soviet Union in the Far East is also very large, and now the total number of troops has exceeded 700,000, accounting for more than one-third of the total strength of the Soviet Union! ”

The Soviet Union and Japan are China's main enemies on land, and now both countries are increasing their troops, and China's border defense forces must also be strengthened.

However, the big war is not far away, China must not lag behind, Qiao Yu thought of this and said: "The army is temporarily expanded by 300,000, so that the total strength reaches 1.7 million, the Japanese troops are scattered, in fact, there is nothing to be afraid of, the most uneasy thing is the polar bear, the border guards in the northwest must always be ready for battle, and any outrageous moves by Russia must be beaten back to me!" ”

The more afraid you are of war, the more useless it becomes, as long as you straighten your chest and show courage, only when you are fully prepared can you really avoid war.

There are not many countries that can make China afraid on land, and only the Soviet Union is the Soviet Union, but the navy has become more important, and this is not just a matter of defending the country, but the guarantee of expanding interests, and I can't help but pay attention to it.

"In the next two years, Jingyuan and Ningyuan will be launched, and by then we will have six large aircraft carriers, which can basically ensure maritime safety, of course, in order to cope with future changes, our new generation of aircraft carriers will also be built, temporarily named Jingyuan, with a displacement of nearly 50,000 tons and more than 100 aircraft!"

The navy and army need to be expanded, Qiao Yu still agrees with this plan, but Qiao Yu also has his own views: "We can not only focus on the army, but also focus on the military industrial system, judging from the current situation, once the war will inevitably affect the world, the war will definitely not end in a short time, I am afraid that it will be more cruel than the last time, most of the existing equipment will become consumables, and the war will be consumed at the beginning, the new equipment we design not only depends on the performance, but also the production is easy, It's easy!
