Zhang Yi knew the history and geography of the world, and knew that the Japanese had a small territory, a large population, and were very aggressive, so their threat to China was no less than that of the Tsarist Empire.
If he were to go on an expedition to the Tsarist Empire now, and it would take more than a year to go back and forth, he might delay the development of the industrial era plan and sit back and watch the Western powers develop.
At the same time, there have been too many variables in more than a year, and it is very likely that the Japanese will invade China on a large scale.
In Zhang Yi's view, the Japanese were not that easy to deal with. Their organizational capabilities and combat level far exceeded those of Greater China and Little China.
Once these two families collapsed and allowed the Japanese pirates to gain a foothold in China, it would definitely be very difficult for Zhang Yi to send troops to attack again.
Therefore, Zhang Yi has long-term plans and plans to play this big game well. But others may not be able to understand his painstaking efforts.
At present, the development of this world has stopped in the cold weapon age, and information is not smooth, and communication mainly relies on horses and ships. However, a large number of books and technical materials have been preserved from the previous era, and a group of people with foresight will take the lead in development.
This is the worst of times, and it is also the best of times.
Conquering and unifying the whole world in this era is less difficult than in any other era.
Zhang Yi didn't want to miss this opportunity.
…
“I admire Chairman Zhang’s broad vision and long-term perspective,” said Vice President He. “To be honest with you, we once held a half-month-long discussion on the invasion of Japanese pirates and Western powers. We all agreed that
Japanese pirates are still a bit of a threat, and Western powers don’t have to worry about them!”
Zhang Yi was also drunk.
It took half a month of discussion to come up with such a result?
At this time, Premier Chiang said: "The Western powers have not come to us yet, and the Japanese pirates have indeed caused us great trouble, but after all, they are just a group of wandering bandits who rob and run away, hoping to conquer cities and gain a firm foothold in China."
Heel, that’s impossible!”
mistake!
Obviously with a sense of luck.
In Zhang Yi's view, the leaders of the two families are extremely lacking in strategic vision. They only believe in what they see with their eyes and pay more attention to immediate interests.
Therefore, they unanimously made the wrong choice, that is, while passively dealing with the harassment of Japanese pirates, they focused their main energy on unifying China by force.
The final result is that neither of the two things can be done well and cannot be done.
They realized that Zhang Yi's words made sense, but they refused to admit their mistakes. To be honest, they were somewhere between confusion and sobriety.
Zhang Yi sighed slightly and secretly told himself to be patient and not to underestimate others just because they are stupid.
At this time, Xiao Liu, who was sitting by the wall, also cast a comforting and encouraging look at Zhang Yi, hoping that her husband could stabilize and not be anxious.
Zhang Yi is very pleased that the person who knows me is Liu'er.
Xiaoliu has a kind of intelligence about her. It is true that she was born in the wasteland world, but her intelligence allows her to understand what Zhang Yi is doing.
Xiaolong and Xiao Han are also such people.
Zhang Yi was filled with emotion and remained silent.
Suddenly, he found that the whole place was extremely quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on him. Oh, it turned out that he had been distracted just now, and everyone was waiting for him to speak.
"ha!"
Zhang Yi laughed, cheered up, and looked at Vice President He with a smile.
"Vice President He, why do you think that the threat from Japanese pirates is not great and that Western powers do not need to worry about it?"
Vice President He raised his hand and patted the table gently, leaned back in his chair, and smiled.
"How many ships do they have? Or do they rely on human oars? How many people can come to attack us? To be honest, they are just intimidating us and thinking we are weak. We will not take the enemy's threat seriously!"
Zhang Yi turned his head to Premier Chiang again and asked with a smile.
"It seems that Premier Chiang thinks so too."
Premier Jiang smiled and nodded.
…
Zhang Yi paused for a moment and said something rudely.
"You are wrong if you think so."
The whole audience was shocked.
After all, Vice President He and Premier Chiang are also leaders, but Zhang Yi, who has always been modest, was hit hard.
Zhang Yi did it on purpose. If he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to break the deadlock and wake up these people.
At his signal, Xiaolong and Xiao Han unfolded the world map.
"Everyone, please do not underestimate the enemy," Zhang Yi stood up and pointed at the map and said, "Do you think the Western powers will be stupid enough to row over directly? Wrong, they have the ambition to conquer the world and will establish them in a series of colonies.
military base."
Zhang Yi pointed out on the map that the great powers would rely on many military bases in mainland India, Southeast Asia and the Nanyang Islands to accumulate military power. Once conditions were ripe, they would launch a large-scale invasion of China.
And this is just the sea invasion route.
The other is a land invasion route, passing through Central Asia to invade China.
Currently, Zhang Yi has no direct evidence.
But he could deduce that the invasion was only a matter of time.
"In addition, taking the Japanese country as an example, they also have several invasion routes," Zhang Yi said. "The Japanese pirates are harassing the Chinese coastline. While looting, the greater purpose is to conduct military reconnaissance and find out the reality of China. According to me
Look, they will also establish bases for invading mainland China, one is the Korean Peninsula, and the other is the Ryukyu Islands."
Although they were all inferences, Zhang Yi's words were decisive, well-founded and in line with the laws of military operations. The two commanders, Zhu Hao and Yang Ting, nodded repeatedly.
"I think what Chairman Zhang said is reasonable," Chen Yiyi said. "According to the conclusive information provided by the intelligence department, the Japanese pirates have occupied South Korea. Then, their next goal is to gather a large army and head straight to the capital!"
"Oh, it's dangerous to say that," Governor Lu glared. "Our intelligence department has also found out that Japanese pirates have occupied the Ryukyu Islands and are very likely to launch a large-scale invasion of us."
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
Zhang Yi lived inland and did not know the military situation in the coastal areas, but his inferences were consistent with reality, which once again shocked people.
What does this mean?
This shows that Zhang Yi’s series of inferences are tenable!
In the past, the three companies worked independently and blocked information from each other, so they could not see the full picture of the situation.
Now, when the three families sit together, they immediately realize that both the Japanese pirates and the Western powers are preparing for their ambition to conquer the world.
Moreover, the enemy has already made plans!
The situation suddenly became serious, and the atmosphere at the venue became tense.
After all, the people here are all important people. Although their vision is not broad and their thinking is backward, they still have brains. At this moment, everyone is enlightened and finally wakes up!
"It seems that it is necessary for us to launch military cooperation." Premier Chiang changed his attitude and said.
"It is very necessary," Vice President He rapped his knuckles on the table and said with deep conviction, "Chairman Zhang's words woke up the dreamer. The enemy is moving, but we are unaware of it. This is very dangerous!"
"We must join forces and prepare for defense." Governor Lu nodded.
"It's not a passive defense. Everyone, I have already said that we will attack the Japanese country directly!" Zhang Yi said firmly.
