Chapter 288: The Industrial Age (2)

Wang Zhenyu thought about it carefully, and there are several basic skills in the development of industry, which must be done in a solid manner.

The first is talents, especially specialized jishu talents, when they were in Xiangxi, they organized international students to go to Europe and the United States to study industrial jishu, these people are about to graduate and come back, but these talents are still just replicable talents. Not to mention R&D talents, there are few in China. If it weren't for the Luxembourg factor, the million-ton steel plant in Liuzhou would be. But it seems that the appearance of this steel mill in Asia is abnormal, sin, sin! This question is a problem.

The second is jishu, steel is good to say, with the help of the Luxembourgers, a full set of jishu is available, even if there is any new jishu use, it is not difficult to master. But in other aspects, the chemical industry, the military industry, and even the tractor's jishu, Wang Zhenyu does not have it now. Not to mention any planes and cruisers! Those things are more demanding of jishu, and the white people are all honest on the outside and treacherous on the inside, and they take these things as their fate. In the later generations, these things were tightly covered by them, and they couldn't bring them in with great effort. So you still have to rely on your own research and development, and you have to go back to the first question, talent!

The third is control, the Westernization movement and the life experience of later generations made Wang Zhenyu understand a truth: the quality of the scriptures does not only depend on the quality of the scriptures themselves, if the monk who recites the scriptures is not good, he can also recite the scriptures to you. Just look at Sheng Xuanhuai, who was about to swallow his breath just after being knocked by himself, Wang Zhenyu is considering whether to make a law, and in the future, the commander of the navy is not allowed to appoint someone surnamed Ding, and the minister of railways is not allowed to appoint someone surnamed Sheng. Just kidding, if such a huge industrial construction project of his own is successfully completed, it means that in just five years, Wang Zhenyu has gathered the wealth of nine provinces to build a powerful country in Asia that is no less than Japan. Although it is not enough to defeat Japan, it can at least ensure that it will not be defeated by Japan so easily. But there are a lot of problems, or accidents.

Whether the introduced jishu and equipment are really advanced and practical, whether the management personnel are conscientious, whether the production and operation activities are healthy and orderly, and whether the benefits of zuihou have reached the expected goals. Even the most terrifying point, grandma's, these specific implementation links, do the people below have a conscience, and how much will the rebate eat?

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Zhenyu wished that he was a German Yankee, that Hitler was put in the German pair of fools to be able to rise with the Third Reich in just a few years, if it was placed in China, it was guaranteed that he would be exhausted by the bureaucracy and the spirit of the petty citizens who were lazy and hardworking, and he would not want to rise.

This is the most headache for Wang Zhenyu, because the information sent back by his intelligence officers in Nanjing clearly shows that with the establishment of the Nationalist Government, the situation has stabilized and his income has increased. The bureaucratic class of revolutionaries quickly began to enjoy a corrupt life, which even Wang Zhenyu's subordinates were not spared, and it seems that this is human nature. Wang Zhenyu couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this, don't think about it, tomorrow Zhao Hengti and Bai Chongxi will set off for their European military observation team, and they have to invite them to a meal tonight, and some of them are singles, don't bring a European mother-in-law back when you come back, it will really be a Western scene.

On 29 May, Wang Zhenyu personally went to the Wuhan wharf to see off a group of cadres of the European Military Observer Group, and more than 70 military observers, including regiment commander Zhao Hengti and deputy head of the regiment, Lieutenant General Bai Chongxi, were all lined up to be inspected by Wang Zhenyu.

This time, the military observation team is very strong in terms of lineup, Liao Lei, Li Pinxian, and He Yingqin are all roles that shine in this Patriotic War. The other members are on the low side of the military ranks, Zhang Zizhong is newly promoted, and others such as Li Jishen, Chen Cheng, Luo Zhuoying, Qian Dajun and others are a group of young officers who Wang Zhenyu suddenly promoted from various armies this time, and many of them are not from the youth army. Originally, they were all sent to study at the Youth Army University in Wuhan, but after only half a month of classes, they were urgently transferred to this military observation group to follow a group of senior generals for so-called field study, which was actually to familiarize them with the European battlefield.

Wang Zhenyu firmly believes that if it is gold, it will shine, and if he boldly promotes these good seedlings in history, then the result is likely to break the original structure of the youth army and cause great chaos. After all, the army is a place that pays the most attention to qualifications and origins, but the future expeditionary force will be different, this place does not have so many scruples, and once you come back from Europe, the qualifications will even be above the domestic garrison, it is really the first choice for promoting new officers!

In addition, in order to prevent his officers from drinking the blood of soldiers, Wang Zhenyu also issued a new order, and all troops should go to the units directly under the Ministry of Armaments to receive military quarters and salaries in battalions; Moreover, the management of the army has been further strengthened, and in the past, the Anjiang Association was not afraid, anyway, the top and bottom were single-minded. Now it's clearly a party, but who dares to guarantee that there won't be a few bastards in the army who will be rebelled against inside and out? The only way is to strengthen the control of arms, this trick is Yang Du, who has just returned from Japan and has not yet been wanted, and can only hide in Wang Zhenyu as a staff member for the time being. All units receive ammunition on a regimental basis, and new ones must be exchanged for old empty shells. In this way, the ministries have basically lost the possibility of hoarding ammunition, and there is no fear that someone will be rebelled.

Wang Zhenyu is very satisfied with Yang Du's two tricks, it is not in vain that Lao Tzu took such a big political risk to get you back from Japan, do a good job, I will cancel your wanted notice as soon as possible. Yang Du's eyes were filled with tears, and he vowed to serve as the chairman of the committee in his life, and he would definitely live up to the trust.

On 1 June, Wang Zhenyu personally convened and presided over a meeting of the Ministry of Armaments, and officers at and above the rank of major in the armaments system were required to attend. At the meeting, Wang Zhenyu repeatedly stressed that armaments work has a bearing on the life and death of the country, and directly raised the historical significance of armaments work to a new height. The young officers who said this suddenly felt that their lives were full of meaning, and they all said that they would live up to the trust of the chairman and do their best in armament work.

Wang Zhenyu nodded and smiled with satisfaction. However, after the meeting, Wang Zhenyu separately called the officers at or above the major rank and above in charge of the three projects of the armaments department to give lectures to their departments, warning them not to stretch out their hands, because once they found out, they would not only be shot, but their families would also be implicated after their reputations were damaged. At this time, the officials were not as good as the later generations, and there were not many naked officials, so the effect of such a lecture was still there.

But Wang Zhenyu doesn't believe in any personal moral character, ideological consciousness and the like. If these two things are useful, what if Zhu Yuanzhang's Weishenme officials still rot one after another, and moths continue to be corrupt? Don't believe that the essence of a person is haode nonsense, it is not enough to really stifle a desire by education, it is still necessary to rely on the system.

"The project of the Ministry of Armaments will now set up a special project department, and all project departments will be composed of three departments, one is the expert group, their opinions are the key, the second is the implementation team, they are responsible for the specific implementation, and the third is the financial group, and all the fund management is in their place. All expenditures must be signed by the leaders of the three groups and signed by the director of the project department before they can take effect, otherwise they will be regarded as violating the regulations and will be subject to military law. The team leader of the project department can give a special line, and he can directly connect to the fifth room of my attendant office, which is responsible for the project supervision of the armaments department. The project funds of the Ministry of Armaments must be earmarked for specific purposes, and misappropriation is strictly prohibited. In addition, a special audit office was set up, and I was given a review of each project, and one was found to deal with one. Do you understand? ”

Ma Xicheng, minister of armaments, Wang Zhenkun, vice minister in charge of military industry, and Ma Xiren, vice minister in charge of logistics, nodded hurriedly. Wang Zhenyu thought for a while and said: "Generally speaking, nepotism is a big taboo, but our old China is under the official standard, and we have long been officials for thousands of miles just for money, and I really have no one to trust, so I think about it, that is, the three brothers come to manage the key places of armament logistics for me." In the past few years, you have all been pretty good, and there are some things that you have seen in the dark, but it doesn't hurt. But this time I must tell you in all seriousness, no jokes, brothers, if the heavy industry construction of Zuihou falls short due to corruption, dereliction of duty and other reasons, not only our Wang family, the Ma family, but the whole of China will be divided by the foreign powers, and we will never recover. Not only will we leave a legacy in history, but the whole of China will no longer have a place for our brothers. From today onwards, if there is one person who is corrupt, whoever is corrupt will be the enemy of our brothers, and as our enemies, they will have only one fate, that is, death. There is nothing to discuss, bury alive, this kind of animal life is also Lang Fei food, let them make fertilizer is cheap for them. For the sake of future happiness, please ask the three brothers. ”

After the three of them looked at each other, they also solemnly gave Wang Zhenyu a standard military salute.

Wang Zhenyu nodded with satisfaction and said to Ma Xicheng: "Well, I believe in you, everyone take it easy, let's get down to business, let's talk about the benefits of heavy industry construction, let's talk about the problem of this steel plant first." I've thought about it, our three-million-ton steel plant is really unrealistic, and you and the experts in Luxembourg have not made a plan for site selection, just show me when you come out. As for the audit, I recommend one person, Zhang Shizhao, he is not from our military system, let him come, no one has to scruple......"
