Chapter 287: The Industrial Age

As a person from later generations, Wang Zhenyu can be said to be familiar with the War of Resistance Against Japan!

Japan's invasion of China began on September 18, because the responsibility could not be attributed to the Kuomintang and Chiang Kai-shek, and in fact there was no so-called non-resistance order from beginning to end. The reason why Japan was able to penetrate the whole of China and defeat millions of national troops was because the Kuomintang was passively resistant, one-sidedly resistant, did not dare to mobilize the masses, and actively engaged in ** friction and so on. In fact, the casualties of the passive, reactionary, one-sided, and active Kuomintang reached 3.4 million, of which as many as 206 generals were killed.

Later generations of netizens seem to be dismissive of this, isn't it just to die more troops? At that time, there were a lot of people, so you could just grab some strong men. Wang Zhenyu belongs to this category of netizens, but when he himself comes to this era, he knows how fart this view is. You are a Boxer when you are in the army, and after drinking a banner, you will be invulnerable to the gods, and you will gather the soldiers in an uproar. In the final analysis, the army is dominated by officers at all levels, and it takes at least ten months for a strong soldier to become a qualified squad leader, and even longer to become a platoon commander, company commander or even battalion commander. The army is indeed a place where geniuses can be produced at any time, but only if these talented guys survive first. At that time, the situation of the Kuomintang was that it was destroyed by the Japanese army in formation, and the division commander, army commander, and commander were all hung up at any time, so it was very difficult to replenish the officers. Of course, this is also directly related to their style of play, these people will not be our party's style of playing to avoid the edge and hit the enemy, let alone mobilize good boys such as the little soldier Zhang Ga to fight devils with a slingshot. The person is just the second son of Beijing, and he will only put his head in front of him in a daze and let the Japanese smash it with steel. But let's look back, it's also communism, and the big brother of the Soviet Union doesn't play this base behind enemy lines? Instead, to drive hordes of young people whose names have not even been registered to Stalingrad to fight the Germans? Could it be that the big brother of the Soviet Union also had the same brain watt (Shanghainese, brain broken) like Jiang Bald's head?

This involves a basic military common sense, the front and the rear of the enemy line are cooperating with each other, if you have to divide the priority, it is also the front behind the enemy line, do not spend time fighting for this. From that point of view, it is not cost-effective to turn the land into a occupied area, it is an act of the enemy, and it is the evil existence of weakening one's own liliang to strengthen the enemy. And the meaning of the army's existence is to protect the people, and Zuihou has to rely on the people to cover and protect the army, which is really a very bad state. If that army has gotten to this point, then please don't boast about how brave you are, because this is contrary to the spirit of the Chinese warriors since the Spring and Autumn Period. In modern times, the only thing to do at this point is the Sichuan Army, and these uncles will never hurt the people when they fight, so they will find a field to practice after taking the opening fee.

To get back to the point, even if the Kuomintang army failed in frontal resistance, it was innocent, not only innocent, but also meritorious. In any case, the Japanese had to pay a price for every inch of land, and the cumulative effect of this price was that when the Japanese decided to attack Xiangxi, they suddenly found that they had no Liliang to move on. But don't get excited, the biggest beneficiary of China's eight-year bloody struggle was once considered to be the United States, because China involved a considerable number of Japanese troops, and the United States, which has always emphasized ** internally, can finally let the American stick guys shed less blood (and then all this blood went to Europe, either by the Germans or by the British girls).

But Wang Zhenyu threw away the history textbook and found that his grandmother's was still a Russian ** who made a lot of money.

According to historical records, by 1945, the industrial scale of Northeast China surpassed that of Japan and was the largest in Asia. From Shenyang to Dalian, there are many factory chimneys on both sides of the Shenyang-Dalian line, and the city is connected together, becoming a world-famous "long industrial zone", and Shenyang Tiexi District is known as the "Oriental Ruhr". In 1931, the proportion of total industrial output in the total industrial and agricultural output increased from 26.9% to 59.3%, while in 2003 China only reached 57.5%. In 1938, the puppet state of Manchukuo generated a total of 1.63 billion kWh, and there was the first large amount of hydropower in Asia, in 1943, the Fengman Hydropower Station began to generate electricity, with a power generation capacity of 2.2 billion kWh per year, and in 1949, the entire China generated only 4.3 billion kWh. In 1943, Northeast China, with one-ninth of China's land and one-tenth of its population, produced 49.4% of China's coal, 87.7% of pig iron, 93% of steel, 93.3% of electricity, 69% of sulfuric acid, 60% of soda ash, 66% of cement, and 95% of machinery. In 1945, China's total industrial output accounted for 85 percent in Northeast China, 10 percent in Taiwan, and only 5 percent in the rest of China, which was "poor and white" in continuous civil war.

And the Soviet Union took advantage of the situation to enter the Northeast when the Japanese Kwantung Army was completely wiped out by the Americans in the Pacific Theater (the Americans themselves did not know that due to the lag in intelligence, the United States had been very worried about the 700,000 Kwantung Army that was said to still exist in Northeast China and had actually been wiped out by them). When leaving, not only forced the Kuomintang to recognize the foreign ** (in fact, to this day, Outer Mongolia is still an independent country and has nothing to do with China), but also from September 1945 to May 1946, the Soviet army dismantled and transported most of the factories, mines, power stations and other materials in the northeast back to China, and the train did not stop day and night for seven months from September, and even the office furniture of the Changchun municipal government was not spared. It took 40 days to dismantle and transport the magnificent Angang alone (that strange thing was that Daddy Mao greeted Stalin's mother in Chinese in person, and the translator was so frightened that he did not dare to translate directly, Stalin was simply a complete proletariat, poor and crazy, and wanted what he wanted), and 60 trucks were shipped. Before November 15, 1945, 200 trucks were going to the Soviet Union every day from Shenyang alone, and by the beginning of 1946, more than 90% of the factories in Shenyang were empty shells, and even the doors and windows were removed. A total of 75% of the locomotives and 93% of the freight cars of the Northeast Railway were robbed, and the Northeast concentrated most of China's railway materials and almost all of the advanced transportation vehicles of Shijie at that time. Of course, I still left a little bit for my party, just enough for our party to fight a civil war with the Kuomintang.

Every time he thinks of this, Wang Zhenyu will scold angrily: "Little Japanese bastard, ** beast." ”

When I think of the future generations of our leaders in the face of strong pressure from the United States, while spending money to buy US debts for peace, they will have to establish some strategic partnership with such a bad neighbor as the ** son. At this time, Wang Zhenyu is particularly sympathetic to these leaders, they are not fools, they are really weak countries without diplomacy! This is actually if everyone in the family is of the same mind, where do people outside dare to come to the door to extort? But isn't Weishenme's family one heart?

Again, for the tragic and heroic performance of the Kuomintang army during the Anti-Japanese War, Wang Zhenyu summed up that the reason was not because there was no small soldier Zhang Ga.

Of course, there are reasons for this, such as the lack of political clarity, serious corruption, and the backward tactical level of the command personnel. But it seems that Japan is not going anywhere, right? In the final analysis, the gains of these wars and the economy have not been distributed to ordinary Japanese people, but to the pockets of the chaebols and bureaucracy. So at that time, the Japanese aristocracy began to surpass the Chinese in height, but the people did not have this opportunity. The Japanese surpassed the Chinese in height across the board after the US imperialists occupied Japan and China began the Great Leap Forward (the Japanese people once again thanked the evil US imperialists), and North and South Korea were typical examples of this change during the same period.

In Wang Zhenyu's view, there is only one most important factor for the Kuomintang to be able to defeat Little Japan, weapons.

A typical example, the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the commander is still the same group of commanders, and the soldiers are still that group of soldiers. Before they were equipped with all the beautiful weapons, they let little Japan chase after them. But after changing to American-style weapons, it was their turn to chase the little Japanese ass and beat it. At this time, the reasons for malnutrition, peasant origin, obvious rank of officers and soldiers, and low culture were all invalidated, and the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Expeditionary Force surprised the British (who asked your country to allocate only funds for the navy).

However, the advanced weapons are built on a strong industrial base, and the Chinese Expeditionary Force is strictly the US military, and their logistical guarantee is supported by the US industrial base. Therefore, the power of this army in the civil war was greatly reduced, and Jiang Guangtou simply did not have the ability to maintain such an army for a long time. It is even unrealistic to reorganize such an army after it has been wiped out, so it is anti-human to blindly emphasize the decisive role of the spirit, and to ignore the material itself is anti-materialism and belongs to serious idealism. And the later history is precisely that the hat of idealism staring at materialism appeared in the land of China in a grand manner, and everyone believed in it.

Wang Zhenyu's mind came to life, now that the root cause of the Kuomintang's losses has been found, can he from later generations use the nine and even twelve provinces of South China to establish a strong industrial base in this situation where the division of the north and the south was formed in 1916?

This project is too big, the basis of the military is industry, and the basis of industry is commerce and agriculture. Still have to respect the objective law, thinking of this, Wang Zhenyu suddenly felt that a new era was coming, and this era belongs to all Chinese, not his own business, so he has to go to Shanghai, bosses, pay for it! (The bosses cried and complained, we just paid for the stocks at the China Development Corporation, Wang Zhenyu said with a hideous face: It's not enough!) )
