3,000 tons of gold, if all converted into dollars at the time, would be more than $3 billion.

To be clear, at this moment, the central government's annual fiscal revenue is less than $1 billion. And Liu Hua's military operation gave the entire central government several years of financial revenue. It can be said that with this money, at least in five years, even if the current central government is engaged in large-scale construction throughout the country, there is no need to worry too much about money....

Liu Hua, commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, commanded hundreds of thousands of troops like bandits, and when he was able to seize the Japanese mainland, he could see his property. The confrontation between the American and Japanese forces in the Pacific theater has come to an end under the attack of the absolute superiority of the Allied forces...

The only combined fleet that the Japanese government could rely on was under constant attacks by carrier-based bombers of the US Navy. All aircraft carriers under the jurisdiction of the entire fleet, without exception, sank to the bottom of the sea. Battleships, cruisers, destroyers ... One ship after another, which had assembled the Japanese dream of world domination, was either directly bombed to the bottom of the sea, or sunk itself in the Pacific Ocean under the coercion of the Allied naval forces...

The Combined Fleet, which had dominated the Pacific Ocean for decades, completely disappeared from the Pacific theater with the collapse of several major fleets.

Without the combined fleet and the support of the Navy's carrier-based aircraft, the millions of Japanese troops evenly distributed on dozens of islands of all sizes immediately became a lone army without any backup.

The spirit of bushido, if used well, is enough to make a country strong. The military government that preceded the implementation of militarism is a good example. However, if it is not used well, it is enough to make a country go directly to the road of destruction. And now, the millions of Japanese troops besieged in the Pacific theater are the most direct example.

In the face of the combined attack of the Allied navy, land and air force, the Japanese army, which knew that it was impossible to win. Inspired by the spirit of bushido, there was no sign of surrender, but instead of using various suicide attacks. Constantly killing and wounding the living forces of the Allied forces.

Of course, even then, the millions of Japanese troops did not hold on for long.

Japan's national strength is limited and its resources are limited. In addition, the army on the front line reached more than two million people. Whether it is food, use, or ammunition urgently needed by the troops, even if all the strategic reserves are averaged out and can be fought continuously for half a month, it is already achieved under the condition of saving and saving.

And in the face of the Allied troops' ammunition as if they didn't need money, even if the Japanese wanted to save it, they couldn't do it... The fighting that took place on the various islands has been going on for less than a week. The Japanese troops on the islands had to face a shortage of ammunition.

Without bullets and shells, no matter how strong the Japanese army's combat strength was, it would be impossible for a single flesh and blood body to be an opponent of Allied tanks and armored fighting vehicles...

More than 2 million Japanese troops, except for less than 500,000, became Allied prisoners of war because they were hungry. The rest, without exception, all turned into corpses. Become a delicacy for the fish of the Pacific Ocean...

The Pacific Battle ended, and the Japanese army of more than 2 million troops was completely annihilated. Allied forces, also known as U.S. military units. There were also heavy casualties, and more than a million people were buried on this battlefield because of this....

As Liu Hua guessed, the loss of a million people in the Pacific theater was added to the loss of more than a million troops in the European theater. With the direct loss of more than 2 million people, plus the disability on the battlefield, the maximum number of people mobilized by the US government during the war was 20 million, and half of them went at once. In other words, at this moment, the number of young adults in the United States has directly decreased by more than 25 percent....

More than 25 percent of young adults lose time. It will be a serious test for the post-war economic recovery of the United States. And in order to make up for the loss of economic development caused by the loss of population in the next few years, the US government, including several other countries of the Central Powers, has unsurprisingly set its sights on a few defeated countries. …,

Germany itself, under the combined attack of the Allied land, sea and air forces. It has almost become a ruin. The only ones that can be scooped up are the various weapons and equipment and industrial equipment that can be used as scrap metal for the US government, which is of little use to the US government. After all, looking at the whole world, the industrial level of the United States has become the leading boss in the world today.

Without much direct benefit from Germany, the U.S. government immediately set its sights on the Japanese, who had paid a heavy price and had barely attacked their homeland...

The White House, President Roosevelt after the end of World War II, did not have as many smiles on his face as everyone else. Because, as president, he is well aware of the enormous challenge that the post-war U.S. government is facing, the 'young and middle-aged population crisis'. A bad US government, which made its fortune through two world wars, will stagnate for at least ten years because of this...

More than 4 million young adults who have suffered direct or indirect losses, and just a few million families behind them, are enough for the U.S. government to bear. What's more, the factories where these millions of people worked, with the end of the war, will not surprisingly close down because there are no workers to produce.

The burden on millions of families, the closure of thousands of factories... Thinking of these incomparably headache-inducing things, President Roosevelt's brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

"Money....without money, nothing can be done...."This is the only portrayal of Roosevelt's heart at this moment.

And at this moment, Major General Rothko of the Intelligence Service, who had high hopes for Roosevelt, walked in with a gloomy face and spoke.

"Your Excellency, after the investigation by the Intelligence Bureau, the situation in Japan is also not optimistic?"

"Huh? Aside from what, could it be that our ally, the Chinese government, has completely wiped out the Japanese mainland? Roosevelt asked rhetorically with a solemn face.

"Yes, Your Excellency the President....According to intelligence, the Chinese Expeditionary Force has dismantled almost all the machinery and equipment in Japan, especially the military equipment, and transported it all back to China," replied Major General Rothko.

"Machinery and equipment....no....Your Excellency, do you think that the machinery and equipment used by the Japanese can be compared to our American equipment? Even if we ship all of that equipment back to the United States, we can only reuse it as a pile of scrap steel....I want money, and I want war reparations from the Japanese government...."Roosevelt shook his head directly, and replied with a firm face.

"Your Excellency, I'm going to disappoint you again....In terms of reparations, I believe that even if the whole of Japan were sold, it would not be possible to get such a large sum of money...."

"According to the investigation of our intelligence bureau, several years of foreign wars have emptied the Japanese treasury. Especially in recent years, if it were not for the fact that the Japanese army had been replenishing the country by constantly plundering the wealth of the colonies, the Japanese government would not have been able to raise the millions of Japanese troops in the Pacific theater alone..."

In an instant, Roosevelt, who was still expecting a look just now, immediately showed a look of helplessness and frustration on his face because of Major General Rothko's answer.

Facing Major General Rothko in front of him, he muttered to himself: "Do we really have to pay such a big price for this?" The loss of so many excellent lads is not counted, but it will also bring the development of the entire American economy for several years...."

As a result, the atmosphere in the president's office became more and more solemn, and Admiral Marshall, who also had a certain understanding of the domestic situation, walked straight in...

Seeing Roosevelt with a solemn expression on his face, Admiral Marshall directly said: "Your Excellency, if my guess is correct, you must still be worried about the future economic development of our country, right?" ”…,

"Marshall is here, sit down... You're right, it's the problem..."Roosevelt affirmed.

"According to the latest intelligence from the Intelligence Bureau, the current Japanese government is simply not capable of repaying the war reparations to our country?" Speaking of this, a look of distress immediately appeared on Roosevelt's face.

However, to President Roosevelt's surprise, the smile on Marshall's face did not decrease in any way, and he still said with a smile: "Your Excellency, I also know the trauma caused by this war to the whole country....No, our ally, Liu Hua, Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, has given us an idea....I took a look at it, and I feel good, so I brought it to you, Your Excellency, hoping that it can help the country's recovery and development...."

After saying that, Marshall handed the telegram that had been translated into English to President Roosevelt, who looked puzzled in front of him....

After carefully reading the telegram in his hand, Roosevelt, who was still frowning just now, immediately relaxed. An old face also revealed a subtle smile......

Supplementing the losses of young adults in Japan with young adults in Japan...

For these millions of free young adults, not only do you not need to pay too much compensation, but more importantly, you can throw all the large number of young adults who have been replenished from Japan into the mines...

Roosevelt believed that as long as the U.S. government could really replenish more than 3 million young adults from the Japanese mainland, as Liu Hua said. It is conceivable that the shortage of labor in the US government will be alleviated immediately. The economic value created by millions of young Japanese adults to the U.S. government is enough to help millions of martyrs' families in China recover their lives....

"Very well....Marshall, our allies have solved a big problem for us... It seems that we made the right choice...," Roosevelt said with a smile on his face.

And at the same time as he sighed, she didn't expect that he, as president, and even the entire U.S. government, had fallen into Liu Hua's calculations in public....help herself to trample the Japanese government under her feet forever...
