..................................................................

After the Battle of the Faroe Islands, it means that the United States has officially joined Europe. At present, among the world's first-class powers, only China is still out of the matter, and the others are desperately fighting in Europe. Of course, this is an infinitely beautiful thing for China, and it can finally do whatever it wants.

However, there is a disagreement among China's top brass about the strategic direction.

The first was the "southward expansion faction" led by Vice Premier Yuan Shikai, who advocated expansion into the South Seas, and the target was of course the Dutch colony, believing that it was a godsend to occupy the Dutch East Indies at a time when Western countries, especially Britain, were too busy to take care of themselves.

The second is the "northward expansion faction" headed by Vice Foreign Minister Lu Zhengxiang, who advocates focusing the next step of strategic expansion on the north. They believe that the outbreak of the revolution in Russia is undoubtedly a good opportunity to recover the lost territory in the north, and if it is done well, they can not only recover all the lost land, but also get back some interest.

Of course, there is also a "north-south parallel faction" composed of some young Zhuang factions in the army, these older angry young people and older middle two people are clamoring for "fighting Mobei in summer and Nanyang in winter", a picture of solitude seeking defeat. There is no doubt that the views of this faction have just emerged, and they have been directly denied by Mr. Wen.

Although China has the golden wheel of Wen Desi, and is now the second industrial country in the world, after all, the foundation was too poor in the past, and it still lacks the foundation compared to those old powers. In addition, in the past few years, millions of square kilometers of new territory have been obtained, and it has not yet been digested.

Although China's current national strength is sufficient to cope with the strategy of "advancing in parallel with the north and the south," it is still very reluctant, and the risks are too great, and it will be difficult to cope with any unexpected twists and turns. Moreover, there is a problem of digestion ability, with China's current national strength, it still seems that it is not enough to open a double line, and the most prudent strategy is to focus on one of them first.

As a result, the current strategic debate has focused on the "southerners" and the "northerners." Both sides were well-reasoned and well-argued, and in several meetings in a row, they quarreled fiercely.

Today's meeting is still like this, with both sides holding their own opinions, and neither side can convince the other.

After the meeting, Wen Desi sat in the lounge rubbing his forehead and sighed: "Hey, what a headache, I didn't expect that our China would also encounter the dispute between the south and the north......" During this time, he has been quarreled by these two groups of people to lose his temper.

Of course, it is impossible for China's system to have the kind of strange "Showa staff", and the upper echelons of the military have not been involved in the debate over the strategic direction of this time, and the bigwigs of the army, navy, and air force have remained silent, but the two government departments of the new management committee and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have danced the most. So they are arguing and having fun, and it won't affect the overall situation.

"So, what's your opinion?" Gu Xiaolu poured him a cup of tea and asked with a smile. Gu Xiaolu's breastfeeding leave has just ended, and she only started working again yesterday, but according to the usual practice, she will not have too heavy tasks in these months.

"I, hehe, I just can't make up my mind. Going north has the benefits of going north, and going south also has the benefits of going south...... "Wen Deji is a happy trouble at this time. Of course, the bear's paw is delicious, but the fish is also good, you can only eat one at a time, so what should you do?

One of the biggest advantages of the northward advance is that the government is correct, and the regaining of the lost territory of the previous dynasty will certainly bring a great image bonus to the government of the Science and Technology Socialist Party, and will also have a strong effect on boosting the morale of the people. The second is to improve the national defense posture and increase the depth of national defense. Finally, there's the abundance of resources over there.

There are also many benefits to going south, first of all, it is also politically correct. There are many overseas Chinese there, and there are 2 million Chinese in the Dutch East Indies alone, and it is of course that the government is too correct to protect the lives and property of the Chinese there and expand the territory. Second, it can also greatly improve the national defense posture, and the South China Sea will truly become China's inland sea, and at the same time, it can extend its tentacles to the South Pacific and Australia. Finally, of course, there are abundant resources, as well as fertile land.

Gu Xiaolu tilted his head and thought about it, then smiled and said, "Do you want to listen to my opinion?"

"Of course, you are the secretary general, and it is your job to help me check for omissions and addendums...... "Wen Desi spread his hands.

"No one will say that the harem is in politics, right?" Gu Xiaolu smiled like a fox, and she looked more feminine after giving birth to a child.

"What's wrong with the harem to save the country? Those who say that the harem interferes in politics are nothing more than jealousy. If, like the protagonists in Long Aotian's novels, he could rule the world while lying in bed, how great would it be?" Wen Deji also joked with his wife with a hippie smile.

"Cut, you just dream......" Gu Xiaolu glanced at him.

Then she walked over to the map on the wall and pointed to the Dutch East Indies. said: "I think it's better to take Nanyang first......

Wen Desi's eyelids moved, and he asked quietly, "Oh, why?"

"The reason is very simple, persimmons are looking for soft pinching. Russia is a big country no matter how it is said, a first-class power in the world, even if there is a revolution now, but they are not completely chaotic. If we advance north now, it will be impossible to achieve a quick victory, and if we fall into the quagmire of a protracted war, the gains will outweigh the losses. Russia is too big, and it is simply impossible for us to destroy them in one fell swoop now......"

"What's more, they are still members of the Entente, and it will be too easy for us to attract envy if we attack at this time. Although the Entente countries really can't do anything about us now, they will definitely make trouble for us afterwards, although we don't have to be afraid of them now, but we have a lot of economic contacts with them, and the European and American markets are still our main customers. Once we tear our faces with Europe and the United States, it is also quite unfavorable for our development, and our domestic market has not yet developed to the point where it can replace the European and American markets. ”

"Well, the economic factor is really important, we need to think more comprehensively......" Wen Deji nodded. "So, what about Nanyang......"

"Nanyang is different, the Netherlands are small and weak, and they can occupy Indonesia not because of how strong they are, and Britain needs them to occupy the position, so that this territory will not be occupied by a powerful country. To put it bluntly, they are British dogs, dogs guarding the South Seas. And now that Britain is too busy to take care of itself, there is no way to take care of this dog. The Dutch military in Indonesia is very weak, and if we use troops in the South Seas, we can achieve a quick victory. ”

"It's important that Indonesia is a Dutch colony and not a native country. The rules of the game of the European and American powers are that the colonies return to the colonies and the homeland to the homeland, and the importance of the two is completely different. It is normal to fight for colonies, but it is easy to be hated for fighting for the homeland. If we occupy the South Seas, although we will find hostility from Britain, other countries will not react much to this, but if we occupy Russia proper, their reaction will be completely different. That's why I built YÌ to take Nanyang first. ”

"The most important thing is economic interests, and it is true that Siberia is rich in resources, but it is too difficult to develop. In the history of the plane where we came, until the collapse of the Soviet Union, it was not very well developed. Although immigration was also a way in the past, with the conditions over there, it was more difficult to support these immigrants than occupation, and the cost was too great. ”

"Nanyang is completely different, it is much easier to develop than Mobei. The rich Indonesian archipelago is much cuter than the tundra in Siberia, and there is also the convenience of shipping, which is a completely incomparable advantage of Mobei. What's more, there are also a lot of resources in Nanyang. ”

After listening to Gu Xiaolu's words, Wen Desi began to take the exam, and after a while, he said: "You are right, the conditions in Nanyang are indeed much better. However, the current revolution in Russia is also a rare opportunity, and if I let it go, I am still a little unwilling. ”

"Hey, husband. Who said you should not care about it...... It's just a difference in emphasis. Gu Xiaolu said with a smile: "In the north, in fact, we don't need to do it ourselves. ”

"Oh, you mean to use White Russia?" Wen Desi raised his eyebrows and said keenly: "Are you going to use White Russia?"

"That's right. When they are at the end of their rope, as long as we express our willingness to support them, we will naturally get what we want. When the White Russians leave the center of Europe, they are nothing, and it is not up to us to decide what they want to repair when the time comes. This is nothing more than a few years late. Anyway, they can't develop that place, and those resources will be put there for a few more years......" Gu Xiaolu said with a smile.

"In that difficult environment, the White Russians could not survive. You can't expect a bunch of Habsburg salon petty bourgeoisie to farm and run in a more miserable place than the Northeast. Of course, with the support of ideology, it should not be a problem for them to maintain a military presence for a few years, but they need foreign aid, and who will give them financial and weapon support besides us? And we will not give them in vain, if they have no money, they will exchange land for ......."

"And ideology can't be eaten after all, and after a long time, they will be divided internally. Some people will lean towards the Red Army, some may move directly to our side, and some will go directly back to Europe to become a duke, provided that they can make money...... When the time comes, you can let them sell the land to us, and we will escort them to where they want to go, hehe......"

Gu Xiaolu said a lot, his mouth was a little dry, and after drinking a glass of juice, he said proudly: "Husband, what do you think of this trick? It's much easier than we get out and on our own......"

"Papapa......" Wen Desi applauded. He smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Secretary General Gu said it so well! You put your idea in the process and hand it over to the General Staff Headquarters, so that they can make a plan on the basis of this idea...... Wen Desi smiled very happily.

Gu Xiaolu's words all went to his heart. Indeed, if you think about it carefully, that place in Siberia is really a bit of a chicken rib, and if you make a big deal about it, it is really not cost-effective. If you can use Gu Xiaolu's method, it would be great. It is easier for people to accept it than to grab it themselves, it looks better to eat, and most importantly, it is more labor-saving.

He is past the age of secondary two, and the so-called reconquest of lost territory is nothing more than a matter of face. As long as you can get it back, why bother to do it. If you can't fight, you won't fight, it's too bad to fight in that kind of hellish place.
