"The global economic crisis has broken out!"

In the imperial room, when Wang Chenhao learned about the outbreak of the global economic crisis from the international briefing submitted by the cabinet, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info╔╗

Originally, Wang Chenhao had been waiting for the United States to break out in 1929 when a global economic crisis broke out, but as a result, the United States broke out a serious economic crisis after being shorted by the Chinese Empire, but it did not evolve into an international economic crisis. The reason for this is that the Sino-US war has caused the United States to lose its status as the world's largest economy, and at the same time, the international currency circulating in the European market is not the US dollar but the dragon coin. If you want to let an economic crisis break out in Europe, unless there is a problem with the dragon coin, but that is obviously impossible, because Wang Chenhao will not be stupid enough to let the Chinese Empire break out in an economic crisis.

Since then, Wang Chenhao has understood that only a serious economic crisis in the Chinese Empire will involve the whole world in an economic crisis, because that is the negative "price" of the dragon coin becoming an international currency. Therefore, Wang Chenhao no longer makes a fuss about the global economic crisis.

However, without a large-scale economic crisis in the world, those Nazi-fascist countries simply would not have embarked on the path of using militaristic expansion to divert domestic contradictions. Wang Chenhao was bent on the outbreak of World War II, so that the European world would collapse completely, and from then on, the Chinese Empire would be in a position of absolute global hegemony. Therefore, the absence of a global economic crisis in 1929 has always disappointed Wang Chenhao. And now an unexpected economic sanction has triggered a global economic crisis. This is something that Wang Chenhao never imagined might happen.

Wang Chenhao was very happy. But Prime Minister Tang Shaoyi looked sad.

"What? Still worried about the Empire's trade losses? Wang Chenhao looked at Tang Shaoyi and continued: "The global economic crisis, as the largest trade exporter and importer, is inevitable. Wasn't the money received from Europe enough to compensate for the loss of the empire's foreign trade? ”

Tang Shaoyi nodded and said: "Your Majesty, although this time the empire has made a profit of up to 120 billion by collectively shorting the currency markets of European countries, the empire's foreign trade has also lost tens of billions because of this economic crisis. Although the cabinet has adjusted the trade situation in a timely manner and invested huge sums of money to expand domestic demand, it will not be able to make up for the loss of foreign trade in a short period of time. Moreover, it is not known how long this global economic crisis will last, if it will last for several years. The profit of 120 billion yuan is not as good as the profit earned by maintaining the prosperity of the world economy. ”

Wang Chenhao smiled: "You should think like this!" The worst-case scenario is that this economic crisis lasts for three or five years, then the empire as a whole has made 120 billion from Europe, and has lost 120 billion in foreign trade over the years. ╔╗We do not lose or earn, and the economy has not regressed. However, for the rest of the world, the best-case scenario for them is a decade of economic regression, and at worst twenty or thirty years, which is several times greater than the losses of a world war. If you compare it this way, you won't have to worry. ”

Tang Shaoyi smiled and said, "According to Your Majesty's thoughts, the minister can laugh out loud." It's just-" Tang Shaoyi changed his words and said, "Has Your Majesty thought about it?" This time, the empire had no intention of provoking a global economic crisis. However, as a result of the economic crisis and social turmoil in all countries of the world, the national image of the empire will surely plummet in the eyes of Westerners, and the entire Western world will probably hate us to death at this time. ”

Wang Chenhao thought for a while, nodded and said: "The strong will always be envied, envied, isolated and hated, as long as the earth is still ruled by humans, this law will never change." Therefore, if the empire wants to become the only superpower, it will have to bear this price. ”

Tang Shaoyi nodded approvingly and said, "Your Majesty's words are thought-provoking, and the minister has been taught!" ”

Then. Wang Chenhao seemed to remember something, and suddenly said: "Since you have offended the West, then the empire must be low-key in its actions in the next few years, as long as it does not touch the core interests of the empire, it is best not to interfere with them if you can." The province inspires their hatred of the Empire. ”

Tang Shaoyi replied: "Although the minister can understand His Majesty's intentions, there are some things that the empire will not interfere in if it does not interfere. I'm afraid it will get out of the control of the Empire. ”

Wang Chenhao asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Tang Shaoyi then said: "Your Majesty, it seems that Germany has completely disobeyed the rules set by the empire. They now openly ignored the regulations of the Reich Technology Export Control Committee and exported high-tech and equipment to the Soviet Union on a large scale, and if the Reich did not interfere, it would not be long before the Soviets would have possessed the advanced technology of the Germans and posed a threat to the Reich. ”

Wang Chenhao sighed and said, "Don't stop it!" Germany suffered the heaviest losses this time, and it was good that Hitler did not directly turn against the Reich. If we force him again, we will make him jump over the wall and become a complete enemy of the Empire. ”

"But—if Germany is not stopped—"

Before Tang Shaoyi could question, Wang Chenhao suddenly interrupted him and said: "Now it is not only the German Congress that exports technology and equipment to the Soviet Union on a large scale, but the global economic crisis will inevitably lead to the relaxation of export restrictions on the Soviet Union by all European countries. ”

Tang Shaoyi also sighed: "Yes! Before and after scruples! But did the empire just watch the Soviet Union take advantage of the rise? This Soviet Union developed at such a fast pace that it was in no way inferior to the rise of the empire. ╔╗As neighboring countries, the empire and the Soviet Union have tens of millions of square kilometers of territorial disputes, and there will be a war in the future. ”

Wang Chenhao nodded and said, "Yes!" If the Soviet Union had no other enemy countries, a major war would break out with the empire over territorial issues sooner or later. However, if I am not wrong, Germany, which has the most serious economic crisis this time, estimates that the fastest way to get out of the economic crisis is to start a foreign war. World War II may have broken out. If a big war breaks out in Europe. With Germany's military strength, I am afraid that there will be a war with the Soviet Union. ”

Tang Shaoyi agreed: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, and the minister has also found some clues!" ”

Wang Chenhao smiled: "Let me guess - it's Poland!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise! The minister is also thinking about Poland! ”

The two of them immediately laughed with deep sympathy.

In order to extricate themselves from the crisis, intensify their economic intervention, and intensify their competition in the international market, the contradictions and frictions between the major capitalist countries have become increasingly acute. In order to get out of their economic predicament as soon as possible, they further intensified their plundering of colonies and semi-colonies, provoked stronger resistance from the local people, and exacerbated tensions in the world.

For Germany, Hitler wanted to get out of Germany's economic crisis. Wanting to reassert his position in the hearts of the German people, he stepped up his expansion abroad.

Originally, Hitler was ready to beg the Chinese Empire for mercy and ask the Chinese Empire to regain support for Germany to restore the financial system and economic stability, but Hitler was furious. He believed that the Chinese Empire had been desperate for the destruction of the European world from beginning to end, so he no longer believed in the Chinese Empire and decided to join forces with Soviet Russia, because Soviet Russia was the only country other than the Chinese Empire that had not been affected by the economic crisis, and Germany hoped to use the financial resources of the Soviet Union to restore the national economy, so Germany no longer cared about the so-called economic sanctions of the Chinese Empire, and expanded its comprehensive cooperative relations with Soviet Russia.

When the global economic crisis broke out, except for the Chinese Empire in the East, which was slightly damaged, there was a large country that not only did not fall into the crisis, but experienced rapid economic growth. This is the only socialist country - the Soviet Union.

"The West is in crisis, and the Soviet Union has a good opportunity!"

Professor Chen Naiwen, Chief Economist of the Chinese Empire, expounded on the development of the Soviet economy at the International Economic Forum held in Shanghai, and explained in one sentence the best reason for the rise of the Soviet Union before World War II.

Since 1922, Russia has finally ended the decade-long 19121918 of World War I and the 19181922 of civil war. By 1926, five years after the implementation of the New Economic Policy, Soviet industrial and agricultural output had reached the level before World War I in 1912. In 1928, the Soviet Union began to implement its first five-year plan. During the brief honeymoon period between China and the Soviet Union, which began in 1929, the Soviet Union acquired a large number of key technologies and industrial equipment from the Chinese Empire and the Western world, laying the foundation for the successful completion of the Soviet Union's first five-year plan.

In the years that followed, the Soviet Union went through various channels. A large number of scientific, technological and industrial production equipment have been obtained from various advanced countries. Although the Soviet Union ranked 20th in the world in terms of per capita living standards, the greatest advantage of socialism was the monopoly power called state capitalism, which could concentrate everyone's power to do great things. Thus, in just a few years, the development of the Soviet Union attracted the attention of the world. Industrial capacity is catching up with European countries.

When the German financial crisis finally detonated the world economic crisis, the Soviet Union was in a new early stage of socialist construction. The economic crisis in the West. It was precisely the opportunity for the rise of the Soviet Union as a great power.

The introduction of advanced technology was still the most urgent task of the Soviet Union, and the Stalinist government spent most of its limited funds on the introduction of advanced technology from abroad.

In 1933, the Soviet Union signed technical assistance agreements with Western specialists on more than 170 projects in such important sectors of the economy as metallurgy, industrial machinery, metalworking, fuel power, petrochemicals, transportation, agricultural machinery, agricultural irrigation engineering, automobile, steamship and aircraft construction. The total value is 2.4 billion rubles, and 1 ruble is about 0.5 dragon coins. During the period of the first five-year plan, a large number of modern backbone enterprises, especially in the new industrial sectors such as iron and steel, machinery, fuel power, chemical industry, automobiles, tractors, aircraft, and shipbuilding, were established using advanced equipment and technology from the East and the West, and even with the direct help of foreign experts. According to the "Report on the Development of the World Economic Economy" submitted to the Congress in the 34th year of Guanghua, the General Administration of Economic Development of the Chinese Empire devoted a huge 25-page report to the evaluation of the economic development of the Soviet Union. The report states: 'In the Soviet Union, about two-thirds of large enterprises were built with the help or technical assistance of Germany...... The rest, too, were mostly established with technical assistance from the United Kingdom, France, Italy and other countries. The report concludes by mentioning that many of the industrial giants in the Chinese Empire were also indirectly involved in the economic construction of the Soviet Union. Because they could not stand the temptation of the money of the Soviets. Although they did not transfer the core military technology of the empire to the Soviets, a considerable part of the civilian technology of the empire could be directly scooped into the military. After the issuance of this report, the Imperial People's Procuratorate, the Commodity Export Control Commission, and other units immediately opened a case for investigation into some domestic enterprises involved in the construction of the Soviet Union, and prosecuted 25 large and medium-sized enterprises, the largest of which was the 3,000 sets of tractor chassis sold by the Zhili Agricultural Machinery Construction Group to the Kharkov Tractor Plant of the Soviet Union, which was accused of ordering the Soviet Red Army to obtain the advanced chassis technology needed for the production of T24 tanks, and at the same time, the accused track manufacturing technology was also obtained by the Soviets. For this reason, Zhili Agricultural Machinery Construction Group was fined a huge amount of 120 million dragon dollars. Since then, the major enterprises in the empire have reined in their secret assistance to the Soviet Union, but there are still some companies that have been carried away by money and secretly smuggled equipment and technology into the Soviet Union. ╔╗Of course. There were also individual companies that were prosecuted and punished by the Reich Prosecutor's Office for having their technology stolen by Soviet spies.

In addition to taking advantage of the opportunity to import advanced technology on a large scale, the Soviet Union also imported a large number of machinery and equipment. During the world economic crisis, the USSR became the largest buyer of machines on the world market. In 1933, Germany exported machinery and equipment. 50% was sold to the USSR. Similarly, 70% of Britain's total machine exports were sold to the Soviet Union, and by 1934 this figure had reached 90%, and Britain had completely abandoned ideological differences. In 1933, 30% of the world's total machine exports went to the Soviet Union, and in 1934 this figure rose to 50%. In 1930, imports of machinery and equipment accounted for 30.1% of the total imports of the Soviet Union, and in 1933 it was as high as 55.7%. During the entire world economic crisis, the Soviet Union imported machinery and equipment from Europe in the amount of 16.01 billion rubles, and the Chinese imperial government also took into account the significant reduction in foreign trade. The export to the USSR of goods that are no longer subject to control was allowed. The Chinese Empire's industrial manufacturing capacity was the highest in the world and the best quality, so it became the most desired source of equipment for the Soviet Union, and the total amount of machinery and equipment exported by the Chinese Empire to the Soviet Union during this period also reached 4 billion rubles.

Of course, the USSR was not blindly importing either. They attach importance to 'intellectual imports' and discard their dross for their essence. In the midst of the world economic crisis, a large number of unemployed technicians appeared, who were recruited to work in the USSR. In 1933, there were 1,919 foreign specialists and 10,655 technicians working in the USSR. This is an increase of more than 4 times and more than 20 times respectively compared to 1928. This is not only the result of the economic crisis, but also because before 1930, the world's leading experts and technicians most aspired to work and live in the Chinese Empire, but with the successful popularization of undergraduate education in the Chinese Empire, the number of local graduates in the Chinese Empire has skyrocketed. As a result, the Chinese Imperial Government began to restrict the employment of foreign talents in China and strive to provide jobs for domestic talents. So. Many countries could not retain talents who could not go to the Chinese Empire, so they had to go to the Soviet Union to make a living. Of course, the Soviet Union also sent personnel to study abroad through channels such as the "Technical Assistance Agreement". In 1932~1934, the Supreme Council of National Economy of the USSR alone sent more than 2,000 managers and engineers and technicians to study abroad.

However, the Soviet Union's foundation was weak, and the huge amount of money spent on the purchase of technology, equipment, and the introduction of personnel had already made the Soviet Union's finances unbearable. The expatriates in the Soviet Union ate and drank spicy food, and the Soviets themselves could only save money and live very poorly, so the Soviet government decided to obtain loan assistance from abroad.

This was almost impossible before 1933. Because neither the Eastern and Western powers were willing to lend to the Soviet Union, and even the loans were accompanied by harsh conditions. But a large amount of excess capital appeared in the economic crisis, which put the USSR in an advantageous position in the international financial markets. In 1933~1935, the Soviet Union successively obtained loans from private banks in more than a dozen countries such as Germany, the Chinese Empire, Austria, Britain, Italy, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, and France, and by the end of 1933, the total loans obtained by the Soviet Union had reached 4.4 billion rubles. ╔╗Among them, the private loans of the Chinese Empire to the Soviet Union also amounted to 1 billion rubles. This was mainly due to the fact that the Chinese Imperial Government wanted to improve relations with its neighbors with the Soviet Union, and it must not be too stiff.

Of course, the NEP of the USSR was not bad on the whole, but it also left something to be desired. During the world economic crisis, the Great Depression, some of the economic policies of the USSR were also controversial. As a result of the economic sanctions imposed by the Chinese Empire on Germany, a worldwide economic crisis was triggered. This made the USSR find out as well. The Chinese Empire, which holds 90% of the world's gold reserves, is enough to collapse a country's economy by moving its bones, which makes the Soviet Union have a long heart, and they have strengthened the management of foreign exchange and tariffs, and built a 'firewall' of economic security to avoid being manipulated financially by the Chinese Empire. During the NEP period, the Soviet Union once allowed limited private foreign exchange business, but in 1933 it implemented a system of strict control over foreign trade, foreign exchange, and customs duties under the state monopoly, completely banning all activities of foreign exchange and negotiable stock exchanges. This temporary measure helped to prevent the spread of the financial crisis to the Soviet Union, but it was not relaxed after the end of the international economic crisis. As a result, these positive measures to stabilize the economic order eventually turned into factors hindering economic development.

In addition, the Soviet Union encouraged the presence of foreign capital in the Soviet Union in the form of concessions. In 1933, the Soviet Union issued a decree abolishing the concession system. During the Great Depression. The Soviet Union's use of foreign capital gradually shifted from mainly absorbing foreign direct investment to mainly borrowing from abroad and importing technology for compensation. However, borrowing foreign debts requires interest payments, which can easily cause repayment pressure. The effect of paid technology introduction is often not as good as opening a joint venture and learning directly in the process of production and operation. The growing isolation of the Soviet Union from the trend of expanding mutual investment in developed countries hindered economic development in the long run.

In addition, the prices of primary commodities on the international market plummeted, while the Soviet Union expanded its exports. Stalin's judgment was that the next world war was brewing. Therefore. He demanded that the whole party and the people of the whole country must strive to basically complete industrialization within 10~15 years, and did not hesitate to endure a temporary hard life for this purpose. In order to accelerate industrialization, the Soviet Union had to rely on the export of agricultural products and raw materials in exchange for foreign exchange to pay for expensive imports of machinery and equipment. At that time, the prices of agricultural products and raw materials on the international market plummeted, but the Soviet Union expanded its exports, so it suffered huge economic losses. What is particularly frightening is that when the Soviet Union expanded the export of agricultural products, domestic agricultural production was drastically reduced. However, with the progress of industrialization, the number of urban populations that need to be supported has increased significantly. During the agricultural collectivization movement, there was a severe shortage of food, meat and milk. Had to start voucher supply. In this way, the standard of living of the Soviet people did not improve much, some areas declined, and there was even a Holodomor in Ukraine. It was not until many years later that Ukraine gained its independence and its parliament passed a bill 'condemning the policy of the Soviet government led by Stalin in Ukraine for crimes against humanity'.

Overall. During the global economic crisis, the hard work of the Soviet people and the basically correct foreign economic policy of the Soviet leadership. This made the Soviet Union the big winner of the Great Depression. By the end of 1935, the industrial output of the USSR had risen from fifth to second place in the world. This staggering surge was due not only to the increase in productivity in the Soviet Union, but also to the decline in productivity in Western countries caused by the Great Depression. In 1933 compared to 1928, industrial production in the Chinese Empire fell by 14 percent due to the impact of foreign export trade, Germany was the eye of the storm of the economic crisis, falling by as much as 65 percent, France by 25 percent, and Britain by 20 percent. From the point of view of steel production, an important indicator of the country's industrial strength at that time, the production of pig iron in the Soviet Union increased from 3.3 million tons in 1928 to 6.2 million tons in 1933, steel production increased from 4.3 million tons to 5.9 million tons, and rolled steel production increased from 3.4 million tons to 4.4 million tons. It can be said that in just a few years, the national industrial system of the Soviet Union as a whole has completed a leap, which is even faster than the rise of China's industry led by Wang Chenhao, which is called a world miracle.

In line with the economic boom of the Soviet Union, the influence of ideology and the socialist system also increased. At the same time as the collapse of the Western economy, the achievements of the USSR attracted the attention of the whole world. Socialism is no longer seen as a dreamer's dream, but as a developing enterprise. After returning from the Soviet Union, the famous German journalist Stephen made a statement: "I see the future, and it works. 'In the midst of massive unemployment in the West, the USSR eliminated the unemployed in 1934. In 1935, everyone around the world was seriously thinking and frankly discussing the possibility that the Western social system might fail and no longer work. The French newspaper La Zeite wrote: "The renovation project is being completed at a breakneck pace...... The Bolsheviks emerged victorious in the race against us. ‘

What the Soviet Union did not know, however, was that it had become a formidable enemy in the eyes of the Western world precisely because of its tremendous achievements in such a short period of time. Originally, the Western world was still worried that the Chinese empire would take advantage of the world economic crisis to bully them. Rob them. But now it seems that the Chinese Empire is very quiet, and it seems that it has not forgotten the identity of the ambassador for world peace, which has reassured Western countries a lot, but the rapid rise of the Soviet Union, due to different social ideologies, the fear of the Soviet Union in Western countries is increasing day by day, and by 1935, the tone of Western public opinion has no longer accused the Chinese Empire of the "sins" it has committed against them, but began to worry about the threat brought by the rise of the Soviet Union to Europe. The Chinese Empire finally ceased to be the number one enemy in the eyes of Europeans. On the contrary, the Soviet Union was on the doorstep of Europe, and gradually became the number one enemy in the eyes of European countries.

During the world economic crisis, in addition to the Soviet Union and the Chinese Empire, the United States was not affected. Because the United States and Mexico are in the midst of a fierce war. For the Americans, the economic crisis has been completely masked by the war. Unlike Mexico, which was at war with the United States, the national industrial system that had just been established was in a period of vigorous development, and the sudden arrival of the economic crisis caused the Mexican economy to be hit with cold water and quickly cooled down. Mexico's finances have also become extremely tight due to the economic crisis, and the front line is unfavorable to the United States, which led to a turning point in the Mexican-American war.

After a year of bloody fighting. The U.S. Self-Defense Forces withstood the Mexican Army's frantic attack with the help of an extremely strong will to resist and a familiar natural environment, and in August 1932, the U.S.-Mexico War shifted from the U.S. military's strategic defense to a stage of strategic stalemate with the Mexican Army.

With the outbreak of the Mexican economic crisis, Mexico's finances dried up, the Mexican army's front-line salaries and military funds became strained, and in the case of an unfavorable attack, the morale of the Mexican army deteriorated, and finally broke out in the defense of Washington.

On September 27, 1932, the reinforced Mexican Army launched its 993rd assault on downtown Washington. The Mexican army shelled the city of Washington, which had been reduced to rubble, and the buildings destroyed by a single shell were not even worth the shell money.

Washington, including the White House. Buildings of more than two floors were destroyed, and the streets were no longer visible, but were filled with rubble and shell craters, and the ruins of the streets were as high as the houses that had been bombarded on either side. U.S. soldiers live in the cracks in the airy walls on all sides. Use the last bunker to engage in street battles with the Mexican army. The year-long battle to defend Washington has razed Washington and the entire District of Columbia to the ground. The siege of the Mexican army starved the American troops in the city of food and ammunition, and the officers and soldiers even pulled off the last piece of bark and ate it, and even the water source was a problem, and President Roosevelt had to eat black dough as hard as a stone on mud and muddy water.

It was because Roosevelt was here that a million American troops were able to hold out for as long as a year without surrendering. Although the U.S. military paid 2 million military and civilian casualties in this year, the Mexican army did not have a good time, and also paid more than 300,000 elite troops in losses. The U.S. military has adopted the tactics of crowd warfare, and it is worth five for one Mexican soldier, because the elite of the Mexican army is limited, and the Mexican recruits who come up later are not as good as a batch, while the U.S. military has rapidly accumulated a large number of officers and men with combat experience through guerrilla warfare, and the balance of forces between the two sides is changing rapidly.

For the Mexican army, it has not been able to scoop Washington for a long time, and it has never been able to end the war. And the Mexican army's front was stretched too long, and logistical supply was difficult. However, the U.S. military was stuck in the Richmond stronghold leading to Port Ralfo, which frustrated the Mexican Army's plan to resupply the front line through the coast. However, the management of the rear of the Mexican army was chaotic, causing American guerrillas to attack the Mexican army in all directions, causing the Mexican army to further divide its forces to defend the major cities. Soon, with the loss of the elite of the Mexican army on the front line, the rear will have all the elite of the Mexican army with combat experience transferred to the front line, and the new Mexican army recruits to supplement the casualties in the face of more and more powerful American guerrillas gradually expanded, in the year of war, the Mexican army lost 200,000 officers and soldiers in the occupied area, more than 8 million tons of materials were destroyed or funded by the enemy, as a result, the American guerrillas became stronger and stronger, the Mexican army became weaker and weaker, by the end of 1932, the Mexican army had abandoned small and medium-sized towns, Only large cities and lines of communication are guarded.

Mexico's economic crisis and the defeat of front-line operations finally forced the Mexican presidential palace to order a suspension of the offensive against Washington, ordering the Mexican army to besiege Washington and alert the American forces north of Washington. The Mexican Army's focus is on cleaning up the main forces of the U.S. Self-Defense Forces in the south. The plan cleared the American forces in the south, stabilized the rear and then marched to Washington, so that the Mexican army abandoned the all-out offensive tactics and switched to a focused offensive.

While Washington was unable to attack for a long time, the Mexican military focused its strategy on Florida on the eastern front and concentrated its forces on attacking the Florida Front of the US Ground Self-Defense Force in Florida, while at the same time, the Mexican Navy dispatched 30 large and small warships to block more than a dozen warships of the Second Detachment of the US Maritime Self-Defense Force in the Tampa military port. After three months of fierce fighting, the US troops in Florida were naturally not as determined as the US forces in Washington, and under the saturation blows of the Mexican army, navy, and air force, the Florida Front surrendered together with the second detachment of the US Maritime Self-Defense Force in Tampa after paying the price of 70,000 casualties.

At the same time, the US Self-Defense Forces Command has assembled heavy troops in the northern and western regions of Washington, and about 2.7 million US troops have received at least three months of military training, concentrating 1,300 fighter planes, 920 tanks, 20,000 light and heavy machine guns, 8,600 artillery pieces, and other weapons and equipment, as well as 9.6 million tons of combat materials, produced by the northern states of the United States day and night, in preparation to encircle the main force of the 900,000 Mexican Army in the Washington theater in one fell swoop, and a decisive battle against encirclement is about to begin.
