Chapter Twenty-Five: The Cold Wind in Siberia

"As soon as Chen Lansheng took office, he complained that the first batch of US loans this year had not yet arrived, and they all smashed the five battlecruisers of the Navy." Fang Jianxiong, who was in a good mood on the Qingdao, talked to Yang Yongtai, who came from Europe, to say that the interior minister of this cabinet has been in Europe for more than half a year and has not returned. This time, just in time for the commander to visit the United States, Yang Yongtai rushed to Egypt directly on a British warship and boarded the Qingdao.

There's no doubt that this is a powerful sycophant, but no one can say anything. At most, some people express their disdain in their hearts, but in fact the root is not the same thing. Yang Yongtai stayed in Europe, not for the simple purchase of warships and some aircraft for France, but for Germany.

"According to the Treaty of Versailles, the Germans were confined to death. The additional 26 percent of the cost of exporting goods shows that not only the Germans will destroy their military, but also their economy. It's so ruthless! The Germans hated the Treaty of Versailles and were full of revenge. Fang Jianxiong's words changed and went around to Germany again.

Yang Yongtai is accustomed to Fang Dashuai's way of speaking with a leap of thinking, and although he is in Europe, he has always been highly concerned about the domestic situation. Prior to Fang Jianxiong's visit, some adjustments were made in the domestic political arena, with Finance Minister Xiong Xiling voluntarily submitting his resignation and Chen Jintao taking over as minister. Although they are all Cantonese, Nanhai and Gaozhou people can't understand each other, and the relationship between the villagers is not very good.

Chen Jintao was the first chief financial officer of the Nanjing Provisional Government, and was one of the traitors in parallel history. There is no chance to be a traitor in this time and space, but it does not prevent him from throwing himself into the arms of the Republican Party early for his personal ambitions. Before the Second Revolution began, this guy joined the Republican Party.

Fang Dashuai has always felt that this product has no discipline, and he has always been more suppressive in terms of use. This time, Xiong Xiling jumped out and tested Fang Jianxiong's bottom line. It can be regarded as giving Fang Jianxiong a chance. For a long time, out of the overall stability and development of the country, Fang Jianxiong treated dissidents in the party committee more leniently, and gradually these people became bolder.

After the new general election, when determining the cabinet members, Fang Jianxiong unceremoniously put Zhang Jian, Liang Qichao and others together, the original meaning was a beating that was not light or heavy, as long as they didn't make trouble for themselves, it was almost enough. Unexpectedly, after a gentle tap. They still dared to jump out, and the sword hero below was even more polite, and he took it directly for Xiong Xiling.

Xiong Xiling was taken down. It can be regarded as a slap in the face to some careerists in the government and the opposition, fully demonstrating his strength, and also warning some people not to touch Fang Dashuai's bottom line. At the same time as Xiong Xiling was dismissed, Cen Chunxuan and Chen Jiongming's qualifications as members of parliament were also removed. These two men have been clamoring for federalism in Congress. It's annoying. Cleaning up the two of them was Zhang Taiyan, the director of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and Zhang Maniac's interest now is not to write chapters, but to stare at officials and parliamentarians. According to the materials provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, Zhang Taiyan personally led the team to the Congress, and invited the two of them to have tea. Whether these two butts are clean or not, they are suspected of corruption and are definitely not qualified to continue to be members of Congress. The people of the whole country did not agree.

After some thunderous measures, the noise that has been somewhat noisy in recent years suddenly disappeared collectively.

"Chen Lansheng is outstanding. Fu Shuai's vision will not be wrong. As for complaining a few times, it is nothing more than trying to help the commander look at him differently. "Yang Yongtai is different from Chen Jintao, he has worked by Fang Jianxiong's side for many years, and he doesn't have so many scruples when he speaks. The more he spoke without scruples, the more he could gain Fang Jianxiong's trust. This trick is not told by ordinary people.

Fang Jianxiong smiled and nodded, knowing very well that Yang Yongtai was on point. What Chen Jintao wants to see the most. It was Fang Jianxiong who called him and scolded him fiercely, so that his heart was comfortable. You can't say that he is cheap, it's not that you are handsome and don't scold you, like Zhang Jian and Liang Qichao, you will directly make a yin move, Xiong Xiling bared his teeth and took it directly. If you don't talk nonsense, it's a waste of saliva to scold you. Yang Yongtai observed his words and knew that he had spoken to Fu Shuai's heart, and continued: "Fang Lang did a good job in Germany, I went to Germany last month and met German Chancellor Bauer. Now Germany is in a mess and desperately short of supplies. Bauer hoped that the Chinese Government would intensify its food aid to Germany, and the first batch of 130 representatives of German enterprises organized by Mr. Biel to go to China will set off after New Year's Day. As for the way of cooperation, the Germans are more likely to agree with the way they contribute technology and we contribute people and money. However, the technical content of these first enterprises is not very high, and this has been warned to Mr. Biel. ”

"The Germans will not hand over the core technology lightly, Changqing will work hard, and after sending these German companies to China, they will explain clearly to the domestic cooperative enterprises. Germans have skills, and we have to learn from others. If you can't learn in a year, you can learn in five years, and if you can't learn in five years, you have to be patient, so that the Germans can earn money. Remember the German submarine technology of the beginning? Over the years, Jiangnan Shipbuilding Group has done a good job, and now it has been able to build the latest submarines independently, and Chen Zhaokeng has cultivated a large number of domestic technical leaders, which are all experiences worth learning. We invited the Germans to come over, and the point was not how much money could be earned, but because the industrial base of the Republic of China itself had many defects, and German enterprises went, although it was a joint venture, but it could make up for a large number of gaps in the domestic industrial field. I see it this way, within 10 to 15 years, use these enterprises to train a million industrial skilled workers or a little more. Learning and digesting foreign advanced technology is the best way for the Republic of China to catch up with the world. You must remember that as long as the Germans are willing to teach, it is not too much to be an uncle. Fang Jianxiong's words were serious, but in fact, his heart was still quite heavy. Don't look at the rapid development of the Republic of China in the past four years, but the foundation is too poor. It is not very difficult to build an army that can fight wars, but it is too difficult to build a complete industrial system. At this stage of the Republic of China, don't look at the increase in steel production, it can build aircraft, artillery and tanks. The problem is that many of the surrounding related industries have not formed a scale and system, let alone technology accumulation and technological development.

"It's still far away, some scholars in China are angry, and they don't have back pain when they stand and talk all day long. This and that, it seems that the earth will not turn without them. is just this kind of person, it's okay to move his mouth, and really let him do something practical, and his eyes are black. Zhang Jizhi was born in industry, but unfortunately his selfishness is too heavy. Yang Yongtai took over with a smile, this is really not a sycophant, but a reminder to Fang Dashuai that people like Zhang Jian are not suitable to continue to stay in the cabinet.

"Zhang Jizhi's prestige is too high, and it is not easy to move lightly. and Liang Zhuoru, who is not easy to move. There is no way, the current situation of the country is like this, wait another five years, these old guys are dead, and the younger generation will grow up to be easy to do. Fang Jianxiong was also very helpless, Zhang Jian and Liang Qichao, they are both banner figures of the opposition party, from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, it has not been a few years in the past, these people have a huge influence in the people, especially in today's business circles, the main force is the historical status quo of the folk gentry, so that Fang Jianxiong can only compromise many times.

It is too difficult for China, with its large population, to achieve industrialization, and it can be said that there is a shortage of capital, talent, and technology. If the level of industrialization cannot be raised to a single level before the outbreak of World War II, it will be difficult for China to have a place in the future world.

The rise of a strong country and a nation is definitely not something that can be achieved by moving one's mouth and shouting two slogans. In the eyes of many people now, Fang Jianxiong's line is betraying national interests. But if there is no interest, how can we attract foreign investment and technology? Why do people come to you to set up a business? How long did it take for industrialization in Western countries to accumulate? How do you calculate this account?

It is also undesirable to concentrate the country's efforts on the road of heavy industry, as in the Soviet Union.

After the onset of winter, Kolchak's troops were defeated again and again under the pressure of the Red Army commanded by Frunze. Kolchak retreated to Omsk, where he was to command the Czech corps and the remnants, trying to hold the endgame and wait for the coming year.

The defeat came so quickly, from Ufa to Omsk, a thousand miles of rout, retreating all the way east along the Trans-Siberian Railway. In the wind and snow of minus 40 degrees, a long team is moving slowly and with difficulty. There were constantly people falling down in the marching procession, and Kolchak, who was riding on a war horse, looked melancholy, afraid to look at one corpse after another lying on the side of the road.

In the 21st century, Kolchak, Denikin, Petrolla and other generals of the White Army were reclassified as patriotic generals.

But now, they are all enemies of the people. In the bitterly cold wind, Kolchak still persevered, for the sake of personal faith and dignity.

The brigade continued to move eastward, and the road seemed to be endless. Kolchak's last hope was the Chinese, but Petrov's reply: the squadron will not cross Chris Noyarks and can take refuge in politics!

A sudden commotion in front of the marching brigade interrupted Kolchak's thoughts, and when he raised his eyes to see that the wind and snow were still in front of him, the soldiers of the Czech army who were walking in front suddenly let out a burst of cheers. A puff of black smoke appeared on the railway in the field, and the whistle sounded, and an armored train came.

The armored train slowed down, and a young lieutenant pulled the handrail on the train with one hand, leaned outward, and shouted: "I want to see General Kolchak!" ”

Soon someone came to report, and Kolchak immediately rushed forward, and the Trans-Siberian Railway was frequently attacked by the Red Army partisans, and it had been closed for a long time. The sudden appearance of a train at this time is definitely good news for the Russian army.

The officer who jumped off the train strode forward, and after a standard Wehrmacht salute, he said loudly: "Ye Xun, Lieutenant of the Chinese Defense Forces, has been ordered to see General Kolchak." ”
