Chapter 380 Extremely Powerful (Part 2)
Chapter 380 Extremely Strong (Central)
As the coalition government forces are innovating the comprehensive dress-up and tactical training outline, Zhang Xuewu naturally cannot produce so much military equipment. Even if he can use the resources and strength of the country now and more talents can return to China to contribute, what Zhang Xuewu lacks the most is time. At least ten months, the factory needs adjustment, technical workers and industrial workers need training, the troops need reorganization and training, and the production and installation of weapons and equipment takes even more time.
1940 was a very critical time point for Zhang Xuewu. The Japanese army entrenched in the Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou areas in central China must be completely eliminated before March, and the strategy of approaching Jinzhou to prepare to restore Jinzhou was to show China's strength to the world with a strong image. Only in this way can Zhang Xuewu gain more bargaining chips in the future world war.
In fact, Zhang Xuewu felt that Chiang Kai-shek was not as good as himself in terms of the issue of Americans. What kind of person are Americans? For their own interests, they can give the Japanese two atomic bombs without hesitation. The United States is a typical example of being shameless, but not allowing others to be shameless. Even if the Japanese return to the post-war situation in later generations, they act as horsemen for the American boss, if the core interests of the United States are touched, the Americans will once again give the Japanese two larger atomic bombs without hesitation!
Of course, the Japanese are the kind of people who remember to eat and not beat them. Saying that Japan is a slutty face is just a compliment to Japan. The Americans have a very prominent feature, that is, when his own interests are threatened, looking back at the entire Chinese War of Resistance Against Japan, what did the Americans do to Japan before and after? When Japan aimed at Southeast Asia and swept the Pacific Ocean, it was not until the undeclared attack on Pearl Harbor that the Americans closed the door to trade on Japan and were forced to declare war. Following the principle of "the enemy of the enemy is a friend", Ivan and Hans are fighting to the death on the Eastern Front! It can be said that the overall strategic goal of the United States has been achieved. Although Sam and Ivan are also rivals, both sides are at Hans' gun and they still united in a group. So when the smoke of Berlin had not yet dissipated, the two immediately glared at each other and tried to compete.
In history, the pitiful materials that the United States and Britain aided China. In order to protect themselves, the United States also objectively favored opposing fascist invaders during the war, it formulated the "Lease Act" to aid anti-fascist countries in March 1941. China was an anti-fascist invaders. During the entire World War II, the United States provided the Chinese government with a total of 825 million US dollars of rented materials. In fact, in addition to the embezzlement of the British and Americans, the losses and so-called expenses on the way were all calculated. It can be said that China actually received less than 500 million US dollars of long-awaited weapons.
Some people are still talking about how much US aid has been used indiscriminately to use corruption in China, etc. In fact, the US aid materials are not a system-based armament, but what is more than what is given to China in the European battlefield. During this period, it has to be peeled and damaged by the British, and there is no more in China? All the troops have been well-documented. The key is that these materials have always been controlled by the Americans, and the Chinese cannot touch them at all. How to corrupt? It is ridiculous? The so-called corruption mostly refers to aviation tonnage, which is controlled by Stilwell. It does not mean that you can do whatever you want. Stilwell uses US aid to block China's neck and drains China's most elite troops. These aids were exchanged for blood from the Chinese people! So there is no question of thanking anyone!
Compared with the history of Britain receiving more than 30 billion US dollars in aid, the Soviet Union also received more than 10 billion US dollars in aid during the Soviet-German War. However, China, which bleeded the most, was less than 500 million. Is this a joke? People must be self-reliant and show their own value, so that you will have value! All Zhang Xuewu has to do is to let the United States and Britain give themselves a good price in the future! Since they are destined to bleed, they must also be worth it.
Zhang Xuewu remembers that by the end of 1941, the Soviet Union had received nearly 1,000 tank aid from Britain and the United States. Among them, Britain had 750 and the United States had 180. At that time, the Red Army was engaged in a difficult ground war. Therefore, many tanks assisted by the United States and Britain participated in fierce ground wars, including the extremely famous Moscow Defense War. According to statistics, during World War II, the Soviet Union received a total of more than 1,300 tanks of various types of the United States and Britain.
In addition, the Soviet Union also used armored steel provided by the United States, Britain and other countries to make many tanks. After the end of World War II, Zhukov, a senior general of the Red Army, told a European writer that if there were no finished steel armor from the United States, how could we produce so many tanks?
According to historical statistics, during World War II, the armored steel aided by the allies accounted for about half of the total production of the Soviet Union. Therefore, on the battlefield of World War II, many of the tanks produced by the Soviet Red Army themselves used armored steel aided by the United States and Britain.
In fact, the Soviet-German war was expected and unexpected. The Soviet paralysis caused it to suffer huge losses in the early stages of the war. After successfully carrying out political and military deception, Germany launched a sudden attack on the Soviet Union. Due to insufficient defense of the Soviet army, the western border was broken through and a large number of Soviet weapons and equipment were destroyed. In the first few days of the war, almost all the Soviet border and nearby airports were attacked violently, and more than a thousand fighter planes were damaged.
Fighter jets are the main weapon for rapid combat to gain air supremacy. The Soviet aviation forces suffered a large amount of damage in the west directly affected their confrontation with the German army. They did not want to see Hitler dominate Europe, so the United States and Britain decided to strengthen military aid to the Soviet Union.
It can be said that the United States, which has not yet officially participated in the war, mainly provided weapons and equipment to the Soviet Union according to the loan leasing bill passed. Britain, which was in the vortex of war, became the first country to aid fighter jets to the Soviet Union. The fighter jets aided by the British were "Hurricanes". It was equipped with four 20mm aerial cannons and eight machine guns, and could carry 454 kilograms of bombs to bomb.
Some "Hurricane" fighters were also equipped with extremely advanced 40mm anti-tank guns at that time. Since Britain was still fighting, the strong United States gradually became a major country to aid the Soviet Union. After the US fighter jets were dismantled, they were generally transported to the Soviet Union by aircraft carriers or other ships. There were three main routes to the Soviet Union, one to the northeast, one to the northwest, and one to the south! Among them, the most difficult route was to depart from Alaska, which was closest to the Soviet Union, heading to the northeast coast of the Soviet Union, and then to Krasnoyarsk in central Siberia.
It can be said that Zhang Xuewu wants to gain a good position for China before the overall world pattern changes greatly. If the United States can aid China's $20 billion weapon during World War II, then Zhang Xuewu guarantees that once the US Pacific Fleet defeats the Japanese Joint Fleet, China can establish a No. 1 navy in Asia and assist the Army in landing in Japan!
