Chapter 1756 Harvest Season

September, October and November of the year are the golden autumn festival in the traditional sense of China, and its arrival means a bumper harvest and joy, and the autumn of the 39th year has also become the harvest season in the true sense of An Jiajun. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Diplomatically, South China reached a series of secret agreements with the Soviet Union and the United States, and because Britain urgently needed South China's weapons and equipment to confront Germany, it turned a blind eye to South China's encroachment on its own interests in Asia, which greatly improved the status of the Republic of South China in the international community.

In the secret negotiations between Moscow and the Soviet Union, Stalin agreed to the extremely harsh conditions put forward by the South Chinese side, and the coastal regions of the Far East, the Khabarovsmur provinces, the Amur provinces, and the Chita provinces, which were now under the control of the Japanese army, as well as the Buryatry, Irkutsk, and Krasnoyarsk provinces of Eastern Siberia, which were currently under the actual control of the Anjia army, as well as Novosibirsk, Kemirovo, Altai Territory, and Khakassia Autonomous Province in Western Siberia. The Gorno Altaiysk Autonomous Province and the areas south of the Churem and Ob rivers in Tomsk were all assigned to Nanhua.

Internationally, the Soviet Union supported South China's occupation of the Persian Gulf coast and agreed to establish an independent Persian state between South China and the Soviet Union as a buffer zone for both sides. The Soviet Union also supported South China's ownership of the territory seized from the Japanese army and the Shengshi Cai Ministry.

The obligation that Nanhua needed to fulfill was to provide the Soviet Union with an interest-free loan of 500 million Chinese yuan to purchase Nanhua's machinery, chemical, electronic and pharmaceutical products, as well as strategic materials such as grain, tung oil, pig bristles, and rubber. At the same time, Nanhua returned the weapons and equipment seized from the Soviet army since the war in Central Asia, and released prisoners of war from participating in any military alliance or action against the Soviet Union.

The South China side did not agree to the Soviet side's request to purchase engines, advanced fighters, and tank drawings. Seeing that the South China side was resolute, the Soviet delegates gave up and correspondingly increased the amount of interest-free loans provided by South China from 200 million to 500 million yuan, and the South China side did not set up obstacles.

On 21 September, South China formally concluded a treaty with the Soviet government, and then the two governments jointly issued a proclamation without any pain, saying that the settlement of the Persian question by peaceful means had created a model for settling international disputes. The British and American governments are like cats that smell salted fish, and they even commented on it and spoke highly of it, which made An Yi and Stalin, who wanted to keep a low profile, cry and laugh.

The agreement with the United States is a strategic partnership agreement.

On behalf of the U.S. government, Hull recognized the legitimacy of the Anjia Army's effective rule in the areas recovered from the Soviet and Japanese forces, and was willing to actively negotiate with Britain in this regard and come up with a mutually acceptable plan. South China, for its part, affirmed the leading position of the United States in the American continent and the eastern Pacific region, and was willing to contribute its own strength to the maintenance of international peace.

In the previous year, the Jewish Freemasons had provided Nanhua with 1.5 million tons of wheat and flour, 150,000 tons of Spam canned luncheon meat, 100,000 tons of cooking oil, 10,000 military trucks and about 30,000 motorcycles, almost all of which were ordered from the United States, through which the relationship between the Jews and the United States was extremely close.

According to the new contract, the United States will provide Nanhua with an interest-free loan of $1 billion over the next five years to purchase American machine tools, engines, and production lines for automobiles, tractors, motorcycles, and construction machinery. At the same time, Nanhua provided the United States with the design and production drawings of advanced A26, A27, and A28 fighter jets, which were specifically designated to be produced by the Longan Aircraft Company.

Yang Fei, deputy chief of general staff, who participated in the talks on behalf of the military, revealed that Nanhua is studying two types of fighter planes, three new types of carrier-based aircraft, and two types of long-range bombers, and that many new technologies will be registered in the United States for patent registration, and the United States is requesting assistance. The US representative was amazed by Nanhua's endless aircraft design ideas and said that he would do his best to protect intellectual property rights. However, the Americans demanded that once the new fighter is put into actual combat, it must inform the United States, and the United States will purchase the patent and use it in military production in a timely manner.

As for the request of the US side to send military personnel to join the Anjia Army and participate in specific training, marching, and operations, the South China side refused, but South China agreed to send 500 military advisers to the United States to guide the training of the troops and to provide reference opinions on the specific establishment of the army's mechanized units and logistical support.

From beginning to end, Nanhua did not propose to the United States the introduction of shipyard equipment related to the navy, such as docks, slipways, dry docks, floating docks, steel plate assembly lines, plane segmented assembly lines, etc., on the one hand, it means that Nanhua has no intention of marching into the ocean to secure the heart of the United States, on the other hand, after the introduction of technology in recent years, Nanhua has been able to build the above production equipment on its own, and Nanhua's docks, slipways and other equipment are almost all tailor-made for shipyards by major steel mills, which can greatly improve the construction progress during installation. It is convenient to put into production as soon as possible.

The military victory was in no way inferior to the diplomatic victory.

During these three months, the situation in Persia and India was like a long marathon, and the final winner was the Anjia army, which began to border the Japanese-controlled areas on both the eastern and western fronts.

On the northern front, on September 22, the day after the signing of the formal agreement between the South Chinese government and the Soviet Union, Ye Cheng's Cluster Guard Army and the Second Tank Army were stationed in Tehran, and later followed the railway all the way west, arriving at the Azerbaijani border in mid-October, occupying the regions of Ardabil, Tabriz, and Urmiyeh.

Subsequently, leaving one part to defend the border, the main force moved south at full speed, and in late November, it advanced to the northern area of Khuzestan and brought the border passes with Iraq under control.

On the middle route, on September 8, the 16th Army and the 17th Army of Yang Jiuxiao's Corps joined forces in Kerman, and the two armies marched westward along the railway without any rest or stop, and successfully occupied Nau, an important city on the Persian Transnational Railway, on the 12th.

At Nau, the two armies parted ways, and the Sixteenth Army reversed course and rushed south along the railway towards Bandar Abbas, where it landed on 8 October. At this time, the two brothers, Sheng Shiwu and Sheng Shiji, had already used the intercepted ships to cross the Strait of Hormuz with their troops and take refuge in the *** people, and the 16th Group Army regained Bandar Abbas without blood.

The Seventeenth Army, on the other hand, continued westward from Nau, taking over the cities along the railway line from the Soviets and occupying Isfahan on 20 October. After that, the main force of the army group marched south, crossed the Gros Mountains, recovered the Kurdish, Yasuj, Shiraz and Bushehr ports, and by late November, advanced to the east of Khuzestan, where it confronted the Japanese forces holding the fields of Gachisalan while waiting for the Sixteenth Army, which arrived along the coastal road, to converge and be ready to attack the Japanese at any time.

On 8 November, the South China Air Force sent a special plane to bring the Persian royal family from Egypt back to Tehran.

Reza. Khan formally signed a treaty with the government of South China to formally assign the area south of the Gros Mountains, east of the Rud Mountains and south of the Lute Desert to the territory of South China, and then announced his resignation and passed the king's position to his son Muhammad. Reza. Pahlavi.

The new Shah Pahlavi signed an agreement with the South China government to receive a government financial subsidy of 10 million pounds a year from South China to compensate for the loss of oil fields in the southwest. The South China government will train two elite armored divisions, three mountain divisions and five infantry divisions for the Pahlavi regime to maintain the stability of the regime. After the formation of the Persian army, the Anjia army will gradually withdraw from Persia.

In the direction of India, in late September, after the news that Sheng Shicai had contracted an illness and died violently from the inner line of the army, the air force paratroopers of the Anjia Army carried out an airborne strike on the city of Mumbai.

Successive plagues have tormented India's largest industrial city to the brink of death. By the beginning of October, the pre-war megacity of four million people had fewer than 300,000 people, most of whom were sick.

After the paratroopers quickly seized the airport and the surrounding area, and after gaining a firm foothold, a large number of anti-epidemic soldiers and biochemical soldiers were continuously sent to Mumbai by air, burning corpses and completely disinfecting the city. In the basement of the Taj Mahal Hotel, where Sheng Shicai was staying, the paratroopers found the gold and silver treasures that Sheng Shicai had looted.

However, since ancient times, those who are good at shooting have died of arrows, those who are good at fighting have died of soldiers, and those who are good at swimming have drowned, this time Sheng Shicai was also affected by the plague he created and died of unexpectedly, and most of his subordinates and troops also died of the epidemic, but it solved the troubles for An Yi once and for all.

While taking control of Mumbai, the six armies and the regiments directly under the Anjia Army, wearing anti-chemical equipment, rapidly advanced eastward, and by the end of November, the northern front had successfully advanced to Varanasi, the central route to occupy the Deccan Plateau, and the south to Goa, the Portuguese colony in the subcontinent.

Due to the plague everywhere, the mechanized troops of the Anjia Army were almost non-stop, all the way to the east, and the cities and towns were not entered, only seizing strategic points, which could be said to be unimpeded.

The Japanese army was tired of dealing with the plague and was helpless against the thunderous offensive of the Anjia army.

During the outbreak of the plague in India, the government purchased tens of millions of boxes of moxicillin, simoxicillin, sulfonamide injections and tablets through black market channels, and used hundreds of tons of gold reserves to finally suppress the plague that spread in the East Indies.

In the past few years, An Jiajun's crazy and indiscriminate issuance of *** counterfeit banknotes has finally had an effect, and now the yen has depreciated by nearly half, and the black market does not accept yen. The high-level government and military officials did not realize that there would be counterfeit banknotes in the yen with high anti-counterfeiting, and mistakenly thought that it was the result of the shortage of materials caused by the United States, so they had to take out real money to buy it, so they added a little resentment to the United States.

Even so, tens of millions of Indians still died unexpectedly, more than 39,000 devils died in foreign lands, and the number of devil soldiers who died in summer heat reached 40,000.

The current situation in India is that the Anjia army has not gained a stable foothold, and the Japanese army has suffered a great loss of vitality, so it does not dare to rashly attack the other side. Because of the fear that the whole body would be moved, the Persian side did not dare to move for the time being, which led to a confrontation between the Anjia army and the Japanese army on the eastern and western fronts.

Another victory is the victory of transportation construction.

This year is a year of great development of South China transportation, with a large number of airships, helicopters and construction machinery to join the construction army, at the same time Nanhua side has adopted the method of sectional construction and then closed the dragon to carry out the construction, to block the railway to advance the mountain, to take a direct blasting or to excavate the tunnel to carry out the construction in advance, so that several large-scale railway projects under construction have been completed ahead of schedule.

In the middle of the year, Xinjing passed through Langshan and Zhennanguan to Pingxiang in Guangxi and Chongzuo to Nanning through the railway. In September, the railway from Taiyuan to the border line Mong Cai and Dongxing through Beijiang and Xialong, and then to Fangcheng and Qinzhou Port was opened to traffic. At this point, there are already three major railway arteries running through Nanhua and the interior of the motherland, and once there is a problem in the Central Plains and Jiangnan, troops can be quickly dispatched from Nanhua and quickly reach the south bank of the Yangtze River to attack the Japanese invaders head-on.

At the end of September, the railway from Saigon to Phnom Penh was completed, after the French government had already built the Phnom Penh-Kampong Son and Phnom Penh-Siso Railways, plus the railway from Si Sophong to Sacho, which was built in advance, and Saigon was organically connected with the main artery of the Siam Railway.

By the beginning of November, the coastal railway from Hue to Saigon was opened to traffic, and the north, south, east and west of South China were formed into a whole by this railway hub.

On November 28, the railway from Hoa Hoa and Son Nyo to Dien Bien Phu and then from Dien Bien Phu to Anxin City was opened. With a total length of 627 kilometers, this railway passes through the Mangmang Mountains in northern South China and the two major rivers of Tuojiang River and Nankang River, which can be said to represent the highest achievement of the construction of the South China Railway.

The railways were financed by the Germans, and most of the construction techniques of the German railways were used, but only Chinese engineers and workers were used.

Most of the 627 kilometers of railways were built by the French. The entire railway line is divided into 100 construction sections, with 100,000 workers participating in the construction, that is to say, every 6.27 kilometers of construction sections is actually completed by 1,000 people in nearly two years, which is definitely not fast. Of course, compared to the strange country of India in later generations, it is too remarkable, because there are a large number of ten-story buildings in their cities that have not been repaired for seven or eight years and finally become dangerous buildings and are demolished.

Of course, in the actual construction, the division of the lot will not be so detailed, some groups, responsible for the flat terrain, the construction length will increase accordingly, and those in the mountains and mountains between the construction section, may only be one or two kilometers or even hundreds of meters, but because it is a canyon, ravines or tunnels, although the distance is short, but the construction difficulty is much greater.

More than 5,000 trucks and construction vehicles were used for the construction, and the rails, steel components, sleepers and other equipment needed for the railway were not only transported by trucks, but also hoisted by helicopters and airships. The explosives that opened the mountain were also directly hoisted to various places in the mountains by airships and helicopters, and the blasting engineers placed them in the caves where they were dug to detonate, vividly opening up gaps in the mountains and turning dangers into thoroughfares.

At present, all the locomotives in Nanhua have been localized. The train locomotives are all made by the Luzhou Railway Locomotive Factory and the Taiyuan Railway Locomotive Factory, which was built at the end of last year. Now the two locomotive factories are studying electrified locomotive technology, the new technology because the power supply capacity is not limited by the rated power, has the advantages of high power, strong short-term overload capacity, high running speed, fast acceleration, large traction, no exhaust exhaust pollution environment, etc., suitable for busy transportation or large slopes, long tunnel railway lines, especially suitable for suburban transportation and underground railway transportation in large cities. According to the plan, in the future, the railway will be popularized throughout Nanhua, and after solving the basic traffic problem, the electrification of the system will be updated, and in principle, another electrified double line will be built near the original site.

The reason why a new country like South China has placed so much emphasis on railroad construction is that since the middle of the last century, railways have been regarded by military experts as the most effective means of logistics transportation, and the government can make full use of railways to quickly transport people and equipment. From the first time the railway was used in warfare, it has proved its value countless times in war after war. Without railways, it would be impossible to mobilize quickly, maneuver in a timely manner, and ensure supplies, and a large number of troops were fighting at the front, and without railways providing a steady supply of food and ammunition, I am afraid that the war would not be able to continue.

In this world war that is now underway, logistics and transportation are the most important tool for linking the rear with the front. Today, South China is self-sufficient in weapons and ammunition, but if it cannot be transported to the front in time, then it can only become useless. It should be said that the role of railway transport in the timely supply of weapons, ammunition, food, clothing, and so on to the front line is of decisive significance.

With the opening of the Jing'an Railway, the first phase of railway construction in South China is basically completed, and the new railway construction is currently underway, including the railway from Dien Bien Phu to Laizhou, before the Lao Cai to Laizhou railway has been through, after the new railway is completed, the railway in the northwest of South China constitutes a small ring line.

In addition, the construction of the An-Chiang railway has also begun in the city of An'an via Nam Tha city, Hoi Sai and Chiang Mai, and when completed, this railway will form a large loop with the railway to the east, and if there is a problem at any point, there will be two railways available at the same time.

In the Shan State Plateau region, the railway from Lashio to Chiang Mai via Jingdong, Tachilik and Chiang Rai is also under construction, and once the railway from Siam to Myanmar is communicated, the future strategy of Myanmar and South Asia will be much easier to carry out.

There are still many railways under construction, which can change the imbalance in economic development in various places and facilitate the timely delivery of agricultural and industrial products, but the strategic significance is not as big as the above railways.

Most of the territory of Nanhua was acquired in war, and its foundation was extremely weak, and what held all parts of the territory together was that it had such a powerful armed force as the "Anjia Army" in addition to its favorable political, economic, ethnic, and religious policies. Before there were no railways, if a large-scale rebellion broke out in a certain place, it would be impossible to mobilize troops in time by relying only on automobile transportation or air transportation, but with railways it is different, and large-scale troops can be driven at any time, which will greatly deter the separatists and forcefully integrate the provinces and cities of South China.

Therefore, Nanhua will do everything to extend the railway to every corner of the border.

Now the Japanese are using more than 1 million Allied prisoners captured (most of them Bengali troops), as well as 500,000 Burmese, 200,000 Malays, and 100,000 Lanyin Zhuangding, to build a railway between Burma and India.

There are four railways in three horizontal and one vertical, namely the southern line from Bei Mu to Dong Ge, the middle road of Ringanqiang to Sittwe via Magway, the north road of Naba through Homalim, Imphal, Kohima to the Indian railway trunk line important city of Dimapur, one vertical is very simple, from Chittagong to Dong Pie through Sittwe Port, so that the Indian and Burma railways are connected together, and the strategic depth and mobile combat capability of the Japanese army have been greatly strengthened.

However, once these places are controlled by the Anjia army, then the Eurasian railway bridge connecting Nanhua mainland with the Persian Gulf and Central Asia will be established, and this huge railway network will continuously transport the weapons and equipment produced in Nanhua to various regions, support a strong army, and fight against any strong enemy.
