Yan Xishan led a huge purchasing delegation to Germany, which was undoubtedly a huge support for Hitler, who had just taken office, and now Germany's poor economic situation was also testing the Nazi Party, if the economy could not be pulled out of the trough, Hitler's power would only be temporary, and he would be ruthlessly abandoned by the people like the Weimar Republic.

However, in addition to talking about economic cooperation, Yan Xishan's trip also has a secret military cooperation agreement, Hitler has tried to restore Germany's military strength since the day he came to power, but in the face of many restrictions after World War I, it is not easy for Germany to reorganize the army, the biggest suffering is the lack of talents, on the one hand, excellent military commanders, on the other hand, it is also a problem of the entire military industrial system.

From the First World War to the present, more than ten years have passed, and the progress of concept and technology is very huge, but the German military industry is basically in a state of stagnation due to strict sanctions, and lacks practice for new technologies.

Without practice, it will not be possible to produce excellent weapons that can adapt to the new situation, and in this respect China has a huge advantage, and the equipment of the army, navy, and air force has everything that Germany needs to learn, and in addition, according to the agreement reached with Secht, China has also retained a number of military personnel for Germany, and these people are now scattered among China's various military industrial enterprises and major combat units.

These people have learned a lot of new things in the past few years, and now that Hitler is in power, it is time for China to return these people to Germany, Hitler is actually not completely aware of this deal, and when Yan Xishan mentioned it to him, Hitler simply went crazy with joy.

He understands the value of these people too well, and having them can at least reduce the exploration time of the German army and military industrial enterprises by three or five years, you must know that Germany is a country that is struggling to catch up, time is the most important thing, and with the experience of China, Hitler's confidence is even more sufficient.

The mustache's expression became more and more excited, and he couldn't stop the surging emotions. In front of Yan Xishan, he began to speak endlessly. His expressions and movements were exaggerated to the extreme, and he hoped that China and Germany could join hands to jointly deal with British and French colonialism and eliminate the red power of Russia.

Yan Xishan has no interest in these at all, and to talk about the new order at least until Germany becomes strong, and the current Germany is not worthy of talking too far-reaching cooperation with China, and China can give such a big gift package when Hitler comes to power. The main reason is that China has its own calculations.

The most important thing is the demand for technology, China needs to get Krupp armor technology this time, as well as optical glass technology, which are all good things that have a huge improvement in China's military industry, and China will definitely not help Germany preserve its military industrial strength in vain.

This is the protection fee, which China has helped Germany save for more than ten years. Now it's time to pay, and of course China has learned a lot from the Germans in this cooperation, but this is only an add-on, and it is not enough to compensate for the favor that Germany owes to China.

In addition, China also values one of Germany's technologies, that is, tungsten technology, which can produce cemented carbide steel, as well as various cutting tools, which is definitely a huge improvement in the production level of machine tools. The value is high. For this technology, China's plan is to exchange resources, simply put, China to supply tungsten ore to Germany. Then Germany offers a comprehensive range of technologies.

This kind of cooperation is of great benefit to both China and Germany, so the negotiation has become very easy, and the agreement was soon finalized, Yan Xishan visited and inspected the major cities of Germany, and everywhere he went, he was warmly welcomed by the German government and the Nazi Party, banners of long live Sino-German friendship were posted everywhere, and the people held flowers and cheered enthusiastically.

Yan Xishan was still a little uncomfortable with this kind of grand welcome, especially when he had to make some speeches everywhere, and he could easily lecture in the face of the official Yan Xishan, but in the face of a large number of people, Yan Xishan was a little caught off guard, but fortunately, he did not make a fool of himself.

In order to express gratitude to Yan Xishan's visit to Germany, Germany immediately sent a large delegation to visit China, and the leaders of the great powers of this era will not easily go abroad, on the one hand, the transportation is far less convenient than that of later generations, and the danger factor is also high, and on the other hand, it is indeed inconvenient for a leader like Qiao Yu to go abroad, otherwise it is easy to produce unpredictable changes in the country.

The same was true of Hitler, who did not personally lead the team during the return visit, but also sent two generals, one Goering and the other Goebbels, two of Hitler's closest comrades-in-arms to represent Hitler to China.

As soon as Hitler came to power, the exchanges between China and Germany took a big step forward, which played a huge role in promoting the development of both countries, and China's Second Five-Year Plan at this time was also successfully completed, the original industrial target was basically achieved, and the steel output reached 9 million tons, which was one million tons higher than the original target.

The construction of various infrastructure has also been fully implemented, various industrial sectors have also been refined, almost all industrial products can be produced in China, of course, it is only to solve the problem of whether there is a problem, far from reaching a good level, and even some key things have to rely on virtue of technology, but at least an unprecedented industrial pattern has been laid, which is the capital of China to dominate the world in the future.

A perfect industrial system has its own life, can continue to innovate and develop, the industrial system is more and more complex, the production of more and more products, the corresponding need of more and more population, in the two world wars Germany national strength has overwhelmed Britain, to a large extent, Germany's population greatly exceeded Britain.

This has become more and more obvious with the upgrading of the industrial system, and countries like Britain and France have been hopelessly backward, and the relatively small population and small territory can no longer afford the increasingly complex industrial system.

China's cities are also constantly developing, and the first-tier cities are not inferior to Europe and the United States, although China's real estate industry has been hit to a considerable extent due to the rise of the Jewish consortium, but after a period of recovery, it has regained its vitality, and several large urban circles have been formed.

China is making rapid progress, and so is the world, after Roosevelt came to power, he began to spend money aggressively, in fact, Roosevelt's New Deal is not too special, the core content is to spend money, in the economic crisis, the people dare not consume, and there is no money to consume. Entrepreneurs are afraid to invest. As a result, the demand of society is decreasing more and more, and the entire national economy is in a depression and it is difficult to recover.

After Roosevelt came to power, some governments stepped forward and spent money on infrastructure and water conservancy construction. Airports, railways, and wharves should be built to provide jobs for the unemployed, whether they are needed or not. In the process of infrastructure construction, a large amount of steel, cement and other building materials are required, as well as large machinery.

As a result, a lot of demand was created, and the government's stimulus action made the economy work again, and faster, but as an outsider, Qiao Yu saw everything clearly, and Roosevelt's New Deal was still full of problems. The biggest problem is that much of the government's investment is made by printing more money.

It may be effective in the short term. However, in the long run, it will inevitably lead to the depreciation of the dollar. The domestic inflationary pressures were enormous, and Roosevelt's financial reforms were actually inclined to monopolize the banks, which would inevitably lead to further accumulation of wealth, and in the end it was the monopoly groups that benefited the most.

When the fiscal stimulus loses its effect, it will be the moment when war breaks out!

Qiao Yu is actually thinking about why World War II is inevitable, the answer is here, when all the methods are used, and there is no nuclear weapon such as nuclear weapons between countries, there is only a bayonet left, and fighting becomes the only option.

Therefore, Qiao Yu's requirements for China are very clear, that is, the entire Third Five-Year Plan period should focus on the world war, China must comprehensively strengthen its armaments, and the top level of the Chinese government also has a considerable degree of consensus, war is absolutely inevitable, everyone is waiting for when to start.

Just as everyone's attention was focused on a few powers, the alarm came from Africa that Italy had caused trouble on the border of Abyssinia (later Ethiopia), and when the news came, all the countries were reminded of Japan's actions against Borneo.

Italy has long coveted Abyssinia, but Italy's heart is higher than the sky, life is thinner than paper, want to eat meat, and there is no good tooth, just between 1895 and 1896, Italy set off an invasion, but was met with stubborn resistance from Abyssinia, the Italian army suffered a miserable defeat, not only signed a treaty to determine the independent status of Abyssinia, but also compensated Abyssinian 10 million lire.

Looking at the major powers of the world, which is not to let others cede land and pay reparations, and eat their own mouths full of oil, even if the French did not win the war, but they also got a lot of benefits, and they won the battle without victory. And Italy's behavior is completely cute.

However, the Italians also decided to sell Meng to the end, after Mussolini came to power, the Italians greatly strengthened their armaments, especially the economic crisis, the damage to Italy was more serious, the United States has a strong accumulation, Britain and France have colonies, Germany has technology, and Italy has nothing, an economic crisis, so that Italy is completely exposed.

Mussolini was well aware that if Italy was to escape the specter of economic crisis, it would have to expand its territory, control the entire Mediterranean, and rebuild the glory of the Roman Empire.

Abyssinia at this time, also made a serious mistake, pinning his hopes on the mediation of the League of Nations and the British, Qiao Yu got the news, but was extremely excited, a God-given opportunity was placed in front of China, Africa is a land containing huge treasures, and Italy is the belly of the fish among the great powers, the combat effectiveness is extremely weak, Britain and France and other countries are weak and incompetent, but China wants to uphold justice and uphold justice for Abyssinia.

Of course, it is more realistic to use this incident to penetrate China's influence deep into Africa, China is not a full member of the League of Nations at this time, only a special observer state, but it does not prevent China from making its voice heard in the League of Nations, the Chinese representative issued a strongly worded statement in Geneva, severely condemning Italy's deliberate act of provoking the conflict, and said that if Italy dares to invade Abyssinia, China will take all necessary sanctions against Italy!
