Chapter 285 Capital Feast

The war on the front line was in full swing. After experiencing early defeats, the ** Army successfully stalemates in Hengyang after completing the mobilization of elite troops.

Both sides invested an elite troops with a total of more than 200,000, and countless servants. Among them, the Hualian dispatched 70,000 people on the front battlefield, while Li Jishen dispatched more than 130,000 people, both of which were tempered by war during the Northern Expedition.

In addition to the huge number of peripheral minions, the total number of soldiers mobilized by the ** army in Hengyang has already exceeded 250,000, nearly four times the total number of Chinese troops.

The number of soldiers who were killed gradually began to frown Li Shaojie and Cheng Wenli, who were in charge of the main combat command, frowned. Chenzhou City has now become the front-line command headquarters of the Chinese army, and a division of troops was arranged around to protect the safety here.

The war has begun, and it is impossible for 70,000 people to be huddled in one place. Of course, there are differences between primary and secondary, and their own combat missions.

In terms of military strength alone, the Chinese army was still a little weak, especially as the occupied areas increased, the shortage of troops began to cause them great trouble.

It is unrealistic to divide troops to garrison, but the situation of weak rule in the new area I just occupied must also be considered. Sitting at the conference table, Li Shaojie's expression was a bit solemn, and Cheng Wenli said nothing.

Looking through the report in his hand, Ye Ju's face also looked dull: "Li Zongren's Second Army has occupied Yongzhou and Shaoyang respectively, and the pressure on our side can also be reduced a lot."

As Jiang Ruiyuan called for troops to fight south within the ** Party, the comprehensive military mobilization of the Hualian League also began. Li Zongren led a 40,000 army to send troops from Guilin and attack the western Hunan area.

Wang Liwen's armored division also began to send troops to southern Fujian and advance strongly. The second-line reserve team, which was urgently formed, was officially incorporated into the wartime military system, became a regular army, and was involved in this large-scale battle.

"In this way, we have invested 110,000 troops in Hunan Province, more than half of the original army's organization. Wang Liwen also uses militias, so doesn't it matter?"

Cheng Wenli, who had not spoken out, also raised his own questions. The total number of regular troops in Hualian was only more than 210,000, and now half of them have been sent, which has been mobilized. The remaining 100,000 people also need to continuously consolidate the defense line to prevent being attacked by others.

"Although it is not a regular army, they are all militias who have been trained for at least three months and their combat effectiveness is still good. In addition, the attack on Fujian is of help from the navy, so there is no big problem."

Li Shaojie is the chief general of the first army, but in fact, he can't tell what Wang Liwen feels. In terms of academic qualifications and talent, he knew that he could not compare with the other party. The only thing he could rely on was that when the village corps was first established, he was the chief general in the army.

With this qualification, his promotion is basically not very obstacle. What's more, since he entered the Nansha Military Academy to study, he has also studied very hard, and he has indeed mastered the essence of the new army and will not make serious decision-making mistakes.

"In fact, if we mobilize comprehensively, with our system, we can gather 500,000 troops with certain training. But this will be a great damage to the development of productivity."

Ye Ju was a senior general of the Guangdong Army. Now that he has joined the Chinese Army, he has done a lot of homework and has an understanding of many situations. The Hualian is not unable to recruit more soldiers, but those are untrained men, and they are cannon fodders who die when they go to the battlefield.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Hualian will not consume these potential labor populations in this way.

The real recruitment targets are actually Nansha, Shunde and Panyu. Whether it is military morale, cultural quality, and regular military training, they have made them a good source of military service for the Chinese army.

In other regions, Hualian has not yet established an effective regime, and due to economic and educational factors, many of the people here do not have the masculine attitude. Even if they are forced to enlist in the army, they will only become a burden.

Without constant property, there is no awareness of death in battle. The workers and peasants trained by Hualian itself are naturally brave and fearless when fighting because of the favors. They are much more reliable than the majority of people who are poor and difficult.

What's more, the Chinese army's weapons and equipment are not able to operate properly without receiving certain professional training. Not to mention that weapons systems such as tanks, aircraft, and warships are not bad without high school or above.

"To this day, the total number of soldiers killed has exceeded 1,200, and the injured is more than five times. After experiencing early panic, our opponents have also begun to find their own rhythm, and the situation of war has begun to be unfavorable to us."

After reading the report in his hand, Ye Ju was also a little depressed, and the war losses continued to increase, and the ** army was not as easy as imagined. Although the Chinese army invested less than one-third of the opponent's troops, the consumption of war materials was at least ten times that of the enemy.

Even if Hualian's industrial capacity is fully operational, it is barely supplying the current war. The government's Ministry of Finance has long been burdened with a huge fiscal deficit. Such a huge military expenditure is probably not something that Hualian's current fragile economic situation can afford.

"The bodies of the dead soldiers have been preserved and will be uniformly enshrined in the martyrs' cemetery. The minor injured are also receiving rehabilitation treatment in the battlefield hospital, and the serious injured and disabled are sent back to the rear. Relevant welfare registrations are also underway and will be informed of the entire army."

The logistics quarantine officer with eyes reported the situation on the side. Li Shaojie and the others also nodded frequently, expressing their satisfaction with the results of this treatment.

Rewards and pensions after the war are not trivial matters. They are related to whether the morale of the army can be consolidated and the fundamental reason for maintaining the military system. Of course, the Chinese army will not distribute bonuses in person, which will turn the army into mercenaries who do not fight without money.

However, the reward should be early rather than late, and it is necessary to announce it in person in time in person. Then the soldiers or the families of martyrs can go to the logistics department in the rear to cash with the valid certificate issued by the military.

The officers on the front line were all struggling with the stalemate of the war and the consumption of a large amount of materials, and why was the Hualian senior executives in the rear like this?

The financial department has fallen into trouble, and the huge deficit makes it difficult for them to accept. Many members of parliament have already yelled protests in parliament. The military is so overwhelming and unacceptable.

The comprehensive militarization of social economy will inevitably harm the interests of many private business groups, especially those business associations or individual merchants that rely mainly on domestic cross-provincial trade. The outbreak of war will inevitably lead to congestion in trade routes, and many private capital factories and enterprises have also suffered damage.

After all, not everyone can receive orders from the military, especially many economic entities that are not closely related to ancient Chinese Society. Most of them still invest more in the light industry.

The Cangqiong Palace is still a hotel-style club with no fame. The quiet environment and strict security measures all make it a peaceful atmosphere that is naturally isolated from the outside world.

These commotions that happened in the parliament also reached Zhong Yang's ears. In fact, this incident was not a trivial matter. Zhong Yang also felt that he should communicate with Chen Ze and Liu Haoran and others and discuss the next strategy.

The living room is decorated in a comfortable and elegant manner. This is the most advanced ** room in the hotel. It is not only strictly guarded, but also the internal environment makes people feel happy.

At today's meeting, Chen Ze, Liu Haoran, Yi Zhongming and others, they all came together. The content of the topic is also about the adjustment of the state of the economic field. The shadow of the power behind the events that happened in the parliament is not as simple as imagined.

This is full of multiple competitions at home and abroad. Many business associations have their own power belongings, including the ** Party, the Red Businessman Rong Family, the Japanese businessmen in China, and the Soviet Union in China. So many forces have put a lot of eyes here, observing Hualian's every move from the dark.

Especially the recent protests of the business association have something to do with the ** Party, but it is indeed the war that has affected the vital interests of many people. The Hualian official cannot ignore these people, nor can it be resolved by force.

"Yang, how do you plan to solve the proposals in the parliament?" Chen Ze was wearing a simple Hanfu. Because it was not a formal occasion, he called Zhong Yang's name directly, his tone was also relaxed, and he still maintained an optimistic attitude towards the current situation.

Whether it was Tianyu Group, Xinghua Society and Qingzhu Chemical, they expanded their production capacity and made huge profits in this war. The fierce war brought endless material consumption, and as the main suppliers, these three people naturally made the most profits.

Even Zhong Yang himself made a fortune in this war. The only loss was the amazing fiscal deficit of the Hualian government. However, they were all numbers on the books. In fact, the social effects brought by this are still very happy.

Otherwise, Li Wansheng would not have been able to continue to gain the support of the parliament and continue the war.

"The other party used Chen Jiongming, which was indeed a good move, but it didn't matter at all. The established strategy would not change." Zhong Yang was also full of confidence and sneered on his face.

This level of rumors and incitement is nothing more than to shake the sentiment of the people and vendors within the Hualian League, resist the war, and rob the Chinese army of the rear.

Chen Jiongming is a straightforward person and attaches great importance to the regional trade and economy. He will indeed be pushed to the forefront. He is the next candidate for the head of state, so he has to face this matter, not stupid, but must show a political attitude.

The ancient Chinese Society also expressed its understanding of this point, but the main reason is that Zhong Yang didn't care.

"The Gray Wolf II main battle tank has reliable performance, achieved outstanding results in actual combat, and is sought after by the military. Especially Wang Liwen's armored division, he strongly demanded to change the main battle tank."

This is a big business. Even the first phase of the dressing change means more than 800 tank orders. Such huge profits and the promotion of its own industrial upgrading really made Chen Ze furious.

The main equipment of the army is all the military-industrial enterprises under Tianyu Group, and orders have been continuously flowing. This time, the one who earned the most was Chen Ze, so it was no wonder that he was so excited.

"It seems that Wang Liwen is also uneasy. Although he didn't say that the Chinese army would give priority to the first and third troops to the first and third troops, he must have been dissatisfied with the Chinese army's priority in ration of the second-generation main battle tanks."

Liu Haoran was in a good mood. As an iron tycoon within Hualian, the war naturally had a very strong demand for such materials. When talking about Wang Liwen, they were obviously also teasing with kindness, and their relationship was pretty good.

The armored division is now mainly equipped with the first generation of main battle tanks, with a total of more than 1,200. With various armored vehicles, the degree of mechanization is amazing. Considering the needs of actual combat, the Chinese army divided all the more than 700 Gray Wolf II main battle tanks they had just obtained into the First Army and the Third Army, which naturally made Wang Liwen extremely jealous.

If he hadn't promised him to deliver at least 500 Gray Wolf II main battle tanks in early March, he probably would have been reluctant to give up now.

"The tractor factory in Liuzhou has also been put into use. The annual output of the Gray Wolf II type is expected to exceed 5,000, but is it really necessary to be installed? The third-generation main battle tank has been developed. The biggest problem at present is how to reduce the production cost. If a large number of Gray Wolf II type is produced, isn't it a bit reckless?"

The Sino-Industrial Enterprise under Chen Ze has obtained the drawings provided by Zhong Yang and made physical items. Even if he likes money, he is still very concerned about the military strength of the Chinese army.

"If we use it alone, of course it is too much, but from the beginning, I planned to sell our soon-to-be-outdated weapons and equipment to the ** Army. I think they will be very interested in this war."

Seeing the expressions on the faces of several people who were also comprehensible, Zhong Yang continued to smile: "Now you have all seen that the originally loose economic field has been gathered in our hands due to the war. Especially the government's fiscal deficit has made the group of bureaucrats unable to escape our control."

Tianyu Group withdraws its tentacles from the mid- and downstream production areas, giving many opportunities for private capital to rise, but it has also led to the expansion of these people. Especially some newcomers who have just passed regional elections to enter the parliament, they actually want to challenge their original overlords. How can this be done?

The civil servant group, which is rising in government departments, is also ambitious and constantly expanding in areas that do not belong to them. This official-oriented idea of ​​the old era still makes them naturally look down on Chen Ze, Liu Haoran and others. Even though these people were the founders of Hualian, they still fantasize about having civil servants monopolize the dominance of society like in the past.

But this war completely extinguished this sign because the government has already carried huge debts in this war. As the creditor side, the three major groups and the two major funds have become the actual controllers of the entire Hualian.

In order to repay debts and interest, the government had to let Chen Ze, Liu Haoran and Yi Zhongming take control of their political measures in fact. Gu Yuejun, who controlled the two foundations of Longteng and Zhongtian, also had great voice behind the scenes.

For ordinary people under Hualian's rule, they actually do not reject war, and there is even some information. The expansion of factories and the vigorous production have promoted employment demand, and many people have also gained benefits because of this.

In fact, the main reason why the people opposed war over the years was that the government took the opportunity to increase taxes and fees and the rise in prices. This brought huge burden to the daily lives of the people. Faced with such a situation, the people are naturally tired of war, which is not the so-called conscience.

At present, the Hualian government does not have the power to increase the tax ratio privately, and it is impossible to think about it without the permission of the parliament. Increased taxes will harm the interests of capitalists, and most members of parliament can be elected by capitalists' funding, so unless it is urgent, it is impossible to allow the increase in tax quotas.

Just like this war, the things behind it are the key, but not many people are familiar with it. For the core members of the Guwen Association, this is a capital feast and an opportunity to gather wealth in the European and American financial markets to legally transform wealth.

Excess capital is not a good thing. Zhong Yang also understands that instead of investing in the capital market that is about to collapse in Europe and the United States, it is better to use it to control the entire Hualian.

To be honest, Hualian's economic construction did not actually invest much in ancient Chinese. It was just that in the early days of its rise, a lot of technological investment and product transactions were carried out. Later construction was a lot of private capital, which was the original driving force that made Hualian's economy expand rapidly.

However, it is also a hidden danger of chaos. The so-called liberal economic system is a way of wealth flow without moral constraints and no camp choice. Zhong Yang has no mercy for these fencemen, and he is a group of profiteeringists who take advantage of the situation.

After the war started, enterprises or individuals who did not join the commercial organization of the Guwen Society would face the huge impact of trade pauses. The accumulated goods would put many of them in a state of bankruptcy, and they were forcing them to accept the control of the two major foundations, Tenglong and Zhongtian.

And within the system, you can obtain relevant product production technology and goods orders from their respective upstream groups based on your own membership level, and continue to maintain the operation of the company.

Those outsiders will be forced to sell their properties at extremely low prices in this wave, and even go bankrupt because they cannot repay their debts and are forcibly taken away everything.

This is the cruelty of the capital world and the law of business. When dealing with people who are not their own, Chen Ze and others will not have any mercy. Those who think that Hualian is a big gold mine must have the awareness of losing everything. This has nothing to do with good or evil, and is the core of organizational cohesion.

The so-called capitalism is to constantly plunder from the outside to absorb nutrients for its own thriving growth...
