The impact of the Sino-Japanese war on the world is quite large, first of all, the importance of air power has been deeply understood by all countries, Japan is the best example, and all countries have once again increased their investment in the air force. In particular, the two bombers used by China in this war have aroused the interest of the major powers.

All countries are playing airships, and of course they also know the shortcomings of airships that are greatly affected by the weather, although the bomber bomb load is far from being comparable with that of large airships, but it has the advantages of being more flexible, fast, and less affected by the weather.

The most important thing is that the price is much cheaper. Especially now that all countries are engaged in airships, a large amount of aluminum is needed, and at present, only China and the United States have a large number of aviation aluminum exports, Germany's aluminum-related technology is not bad than the United States, but the production capacity is not large, just enough for their own use. As a result, China and the United States, which almost monopolized the world aluminum market, took the opportunity to raise prices, and the price of aviation aluminum soared, from 45o US dollars per ton in 19o9 to 136 US dollars per ton at present, an increase of three times

As for helium, which is monopolized by the United States, it does not have much impact, because the Europeans are not stupid and will not stupidly wait for the Yankees to rip off the bamboo. Aviation aluminum is no way, the relevant industrial chain will not be established for a while and a half, but helium is not without substitutes, why should you be stuck by your Yankees? If you are too much of a dead cowboy, Lao Tzu does not use helium, but not hydrogen?

Well, you say that the security is poor? If there is really a war, how safe can this helium airship be? This is not a passenger airship. Anyway, it won't be those politicians and generals who drive the airship, it's just a matter of dying a few big soldiers, so what's the matter?

But just the crazy rise in the price of aluminum has made the cost of the airship roll up. At present, European countries have to build a medium-sized airship, to say the least, it will cost five or six hundred thousand yuan (equivalent to RMB), and the cost of large armed airships is higher, and one million is the starting point.

This price is too expensive, I really can't stand it. Even a guy with deep pockets like the United States, even if his raw materials are cheap, he can't stand it. It's not that the Yankees don't have money, it's mainly that the old men in Congress are reluctant to spend more money on equipment, and the annual military spending is so little.

But airplanes are different, and now a fighter is only two or three thousand yuan, and a heavy bomber is only seven or eight thousand yuan, and at most it is only 10,000 yuan. The money to build a large airship is enough to build a hundred heavy bombers. No matter how much bomb a large airship has, it can't be compared to a hundred heavy bombers.

The more European politicians and generals thought about it, the more justified it became, and they all thought of using bombers instead of expensive airships. Of course, airships are also indispensable, and these Dongdong are now like battleships, becoming the face and symbol of strength of great powers, even if they are expensive. In today's world, if any country does not have a few large airships in its hands, you will be embarrassed to say that you are a great power when you go out.

There is always no shortage of smart people, and after seeing the actual use of the Chinese Air Force, the great powers also invariably thought of the method of "high and low matching" to take into account both quantity and quality. Now that China is recognized as the number one air force, it has mastered the most advanced aviation technology, and it has practical experience in using it, so it is naturally the best object to learn. If the great powers want to engage in bombers, they naturally can't get around China, because Chinese companies such as Xingke Group have long registered patents for a number of related technologies in various countries, and these patent barriers are not so easy to bypass.

However, it must be explained here that patent barriers are only effective if they are played by the powers themselves. If a weak country or a guy with no background wants to use patents or something like that to blackmail a great power or a capitalist, hehe, it would be naïve. Patent barriers are the rules of the game for the great powers, and even the guys who are not the great powers want to play in it, and that's a joke. Do you really think that the great powers and the capitalists started out in a good way? What are the great powers that do not know how to play double standards?

For example, Hou Debang of the original time and space understood the "joint alkali production method" in the thirties, but he didn't even get half a cent of the patent fee, so he was forced to disclose it to the world. There are many others who have encountered this kind of experience, and Hou Debang is not the first, nor is it the last.

Unlike the original time and space, China in this plane is already a recognized power, so everyone naturally has to abide by the rules. The great powers are unanimous, this is the highest principle in the world, even Britain and Germany are about to open up, but they still abide by this kind of rule with each other, and what should be spent has to be spent. Of course, if it really starts, that's another matter

So now everyone has come to China and asked for the purchase of bombers and related patent usage rights and so on.

The first to come to the door was the United States, and they relied on the relationship between quasi-allies to directly ask for the purchase of these things, among which the H-1 "Tern" light bomber and the H-2 "Egret" heavy bomber were each ordered 2O units, as well as 6O motives, as well as relevant patents, drawings and production licenses. For orders from the United States, China's price is still relatively conscientious, and now there are many things that the two sides are cooperating, so there is no need to slaughter them too hard. The "tern" is priced at $66, the "Egret" is priced at $10,000 and the motive is $26.

Of course, the exported planes are all "monkey versions", and their performance is smaller than that of their own versions, and the most important thing for bombers is to bomb sights, which cannot be given to them so easily. The bombing sight of the export bomber is a simplified version, and its performance is far inferior to the original. In addition, the motive is also a shrunken version, both power and life are lower than the genuine version. There is also the on-board electronics, all of which have been replaced with stupid and thick tube models, and the transistor models are only for personal use.

For this package of purchase contracts, China received a total of 1.36 million Chinese yuan (about 60,000 US dollars).

Next in Germany, they asked for 2o units each of the "tern" and "egret", 6o motives, as well as relevant patents, drawings and production licenses. Out of the intention of enhancing Germany's strength, Wen Desi, the extraordinarily large "self-five marks", offered a preferential price of 1,060,000 yuan (about 260,000 marks) to Erdezi.

When the Entente came to the door, the price would not be so cheap. Niu Niu spent 260,000 Chinese yuan (about 2o million pounds) to buy 2o racks of "terns" and "egrets", 6o motors, and related patents, drawings and production licenses. France is not bad for money, they bought the same project as the UK, and spent 260,000 Chinese dollars (about 660,000 francs).

Russia, Austria-Hungary and Italy each bought 1oo "terns" and "egrets", 2o motives, as well as related patents, drawings and production licenses. It cost 11oo million Chinese dollars.

In addition, there are Ottoman, Brazil, Argentina, Sweden, the Netherlands, Spain, Chile, Canada, Australia, Belgium and other countries also come to purchase, these are relatively few, more than a dozen, dozens of buying, some of them have limited industrial strength, even did not buy the production license, directly buy the finished product and training liver affairs. These transactions resulted in a total of 260,000 Chinese dollars.

In this aircraft transaction, China received a total of 11.46 million Chinese yuan, of which the profit was at least 7.6 million, and the arms industry was indeed a profiteering industry.

Even Japan, although embarrassed to buy it directly, they also got a few from Niu Niu and went back to dismantle and play, and China pretended not to know about this. Since you are going to sell to the Great Powers, don't be afraid of leaks. However, Niu Niu is not stupid, they are only willing to send a few planes at most, and they are not willing to send technology. If you want technology, you can just give money

Otherwise, you will find the Chinese to buy it yourself, and Lao Tzu will not open a good church.

Then there is the new weapon of the tank, which has also received the attention of various countries, and the Japanese 6th Army, which is not too weak, was actually beaten to the point of no resistance, in addition to the strength of the Chinese Air Force, the weapon of this pillbox is also a very important factor.

After all, whether the plane can be used or not depends on whether God gives face, but tanks are different, and they are much less affected by the climate. Moreover, the transportation conditions in Europe and the United States are much better than those in places like North Korea and Taiwan, which is really suitable for us

In fact, the tank or its real name "armored fighting vehicle" was not an uncommon thing at the time, and it was not only the British who thought of it, almost all the great powers had a plan. It's just that all parties still have doubts about its role, and the performance of the products at that time was really not ideal, so they were not officially equipped with troops.

The most important thing is that the tanks at that time had not yet formed a standard system, and there were many kinds of bizarre brain hole works, such as the British diamond-shaped tank, which did not have such a mature design as China. The most important thing is that the two main tanks of China have already been tested in real combat and have fully proven their worth.

As a result, the great powers added such a thing as tanks to their purchase lists. However, the price of tanks is not cheap, and the price of the Chinese is much more expensive than that of airplanes, with the unit price of the Type 1 1911 "Otter" amphibious combat vehicle being 460,000 Chinese yuan, and the unit price of the Type 2 192 "Wolverine" fighting vehicle being 60,000 Chinese yuan. (This was true in the early days, and airplanes that used a lot of canvas and wood were cheaper than tanks).

And at least 6 cars, less than not sell, if you want to buy relevant patents and authorizations, at least 1oo cars. It's too expensive, I love to buy it, and if I don't buy it, I'm not in a hurry anyway.

Of course, the "close" United States and Germany got preferential prices again, and China gave them a seven-fold discount, and these two directly placed orders for 2o vehicles, plus spare parts, as well as related patents and production authorizations.

Seeing that these two bought it, Britain, France, Russia and other countries couldn't sit still, and they gritted their teeth and bought 2o cars each. When other second-rate powers saw this market, they also felt that they could not lag behind the times, and they also placed orders for 6 to 1oo vehicles.

China sold 176 tanks at this time, and received a total of more than 1.36 million Chinese dollars, of which the profit was at least 860,000. Of course, these export versions of the tanks are also monkey versions, with worse armor steel, worse motivation, and the on-board radio has also been canceled.

Finally, it is the naval weapon, the dreadnoughts built by various countries frantically, which have finally proved their value in actual combat, and the dreadnoughts before hitting them are like playing. The great victory of the Chinese Navy completely made the former dreadnoughts withdraw from the stage of history, and the future sea will be the world of dreadnoughts.

As a result, the major powers were even more enthusiastic about the construction of dreadnoughts. The most frustrating of these is the British, because they have built too many former dreadnoughts before, there are seventy or eighty of them, and now they are all in their hands. If only before the East China Sea War, these old goods could still be sold, but now who is stupid enough to be fearless before buying them?

Depressed, it seems that I can only use it to dismantle scrap iron.

But submarines, another weapon that shines in naval battles, have not received much attention. After carefully studying the details of the Sino-Japanese naval battle, the British believed that the role of submarines was still only for sneak attacks. If China's main fleet at that time had not overwhelmed the Japanese fleet, the Chinese submarines would have simply had no room to wield. In other words, this thing is the icing on the cake that can be exhibited, but it is not worth the effort.

Naval experts from many other countries have come to a similar conclusion, but Germany is different, because of China's reminders, they know very well that the role of submarines is not reflected in regular naval warfare, but in breaking diplomatic relations and blockades. Because of the excellent performance of Chinese submarines and torpedoes, they were more confident in their choice, so they ordered 6 more submarines from China. Of course, it is a foreign trade version of the magic H-boat, and the "fur dog" will not be sold now.

As for the aircraft carrier, which Wen Deji attached great importance to, because of the weather, the performance was not good during the decisive battle, and it was only in the end that the war ended quickly, and there were a few small results. Therefore, it did not attract the attention of the great powers at all, and they thought that it was good to use this kind of warship to replace cruisers for reconnaissance work, and it was also advantageous to deal with light ships, but compared to its cost, the use was still too narrow.

The Atlantic Ocean is not the Pacific Ocean, and the sea conditions over there are even worse, if the Pacific storms are a few times a year, then the Atlantic Ocean is dozens or hundreds of times a year. After careful study, British and German naval experts believed that the design of China's aircraft carriers was completely unsuitable for the Atlantic environment, so they opened their minds and coincidentally proposed a "aviation cruiser" plan.

That is, to combine a cruiser and an aircraft carrier, to be able to fight and fly aircraft, multi-purpose, multi-functional, multi-purpose one ship, how great is this As for the problem that this design will cause a reduction in carrier-based aircraft, in their opinion, it is not a problem at all. Anyway, there is no way to deal with the battleship, a few more planes have a fart, and it is enough to be able to act as eyes and ears for the battleship.

They don't like this kind of thing at all, they like battleships.

France, Italy, and Austria-Hungary feel different, because they are all in the big bathtub of the Mediterranean, and the sea conditions here are much better than the Pacific Ocean, and they can be used completely. As a result, the three countries have carried out research on aircraft carriers.

The Ottomans had similar ideas to the three Mediterranean countries, but because they had tasted the sweetness of airplanes, they felt that if there were aircraft carriers, it would be equivalent to more mobile airfields. It has to be said that the Ottomans, after a mistake, were the first countries after China to recognize the role of aircraft carriers.

Because of the previous cooperation, Osman felt that China, a new power, was more conscientious, and the products provided were of high quality and low price, and they were not overbearing, and they were much easier to deal with than those white skins. In addition, they had already ordered a Fuxi-class in China, so they simply found China again and ordered another aircraft carrier. However, they pay more attention to the performance and number of carrier-based aircraft of aircraft carriers, and do not pay much attention to the performance of aircraft carriers themselves. Therefore, they demand that their aircraft carriers have more carrier-based aircraft, and it doesn't matter if they are slow. When the time comes, he will form a partner with the Fuxi-class, so that he can take care of both the near and far.

As for the United States, there are two opposing opinions, but they have a lot of money, and with a shake of their hands, they are ready to build two ships to play with them and see the results.
