Chapter 204 Impurity of arms dealers

Since Germany announced the war with Tsarist Russia, although it is worry-free for the time being, preparation is indispensable. Berlin pulled out the equipment owned by its allies and found that the Somi submachine gun equipped by its army was a good thing, and the price was cheaper than the origin of Finland. Many German army officers who worked as instructors and consultants in the zhongyāng army have recommended this gun to the German army headquarters.

The Somi submachine gun uses 9mm Ruger pistol bullets to have a very accurate hit rate at a distance of 100 meters. If you change to 9mm Magnan pistol bullets (plus ejection medicine), the effective range will reach 300 meters, which is enough to suppress rifle shooting. The firing rate of 900 rounds per minute is not comparable to that of a light machine gun.

The Somi submachine gun is not something that cannot be made by Germany, but a cost issue must be considered for a large number of weapons. Finland countries have a small population and fewer troops and no more. The Somi submachine gun designed is completely a precision-made manufacturing process standard using sniper rifles - it has only equipped thousands of people so far.

But during World War I, Germany also exploded millions of soldiers, so at this ratio, it would have to be equipped with hundreds of thousands of submachine guns - this number plus the precision craftsmanship would have to be a life of life.

However, there is a shortcut now, which is to use industrial products to exchange a large number of cheap Somi submachine guns from Nanjing, China (Nanjing said it could get the goods at a 30% discount because of the allies declared war) - the price is only one-third of that of Finland, and in terms of current currency value, it is only less than 500 marks. The first batch of beards placed an order for 100,000 Somi submachine guns in Nanjing, preparing to be equipped for the SS. Now, Berlin has become accustomed to redirecting weapons from Nanjing.

The biggest shock to the news that Russia participated in the war was of course Jin Batian, who was still in Yan'an: this point of modern history really needs to be returned to the teacher. First, the air team that should have been sent to the principal was sent to the Japanese devils, but now it is not accurate to send troops directly. Well, even the Japanese devils had a hookup with Tsarist Russia in history and now it is not uncommon to wear a pair of pants, but Germany declared war on Tsarist Russia in three to five years. This is unscientific. Where did the Shadders go to the non-aggression treaty - although this treaty in history also feeds dogs.

What made Jin Batian most nervous was the time of Britain, France and the Midi. If the time of participating in the war changed, he would be almost powerless to all the problems and consequences caused by the butterfly effect. Unconsciously, he and his own interests were tied to the same boat with the principal of Nanjing and others. All he could do now was to pull the principal - even if it was not for the sake of the party and the country.

Because Zhang Zhizhong's headquarters was also here in Yan'an, Jin Batian could get the news from Nanjing as soon as possible. After discovering that the matter was out of track, Jin Batian made a painful decision. First, he gave the two battleships leased by the zhongyāng army (which were damaged in the East China Sea Navy for repair) to zhongyāng zhèngfu for free.

Second, during the war, the overdraft amount of land tax paid by the Nanyang Military Industry Institute continued to be expanded, from the current maximum annual amount of 300 million yuan to a per year of 1 billion yuan. After the war was over, it was still changed to arms worth 100 million yuan of land tax every year.

After sending these two telegrams to Nanjing with a heavy mood, Jin Batian knew that he was no longer a pure arms dealer. But in the past two years, he seemed to have made enough money. With 100 million yuan, only a figure left. Moreover, the money he made in the past two years, including shares, stocks, and cash, has exceeded 3 billion yuan, which is silver dollars.

In addition to the daily arms trade with Nanjing zhongyāngzhèngfu in the past two years, you can make money by investing in whatever you invest. For example, in this era, you spend tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of silver dollars to make money and lose money, but if you spend tens of thousands of silver dollars to smash a junk stock, you can also make money and lose money at a sky-high price. The shares invested by Jinbatian are all in the bank and railway sectors, and the funds are enough to make money in the stock market and it is difficult to lose money.

Well, forget it, there are so many precious metals in the refining center, and it is worth billions of dollars to throw it into the market. We won’t compete with Rothschild. Jin Batian comforted himself.

Nanjing

The Japanese started attacking in the summer. After several months of struggle, it was already autumn. The principal counted the ripe apples on the apple trees in the yard one by one, and calculated how many fruits they could eat this year. Don’t doubt that the principal has this hobby. He counted them from the beginning of the fruits and went to his spare time.

But today the principal counted twice and was furious and asked the guards around him: "Why are there five missing? He said, who took it off."

Jingwei replied: "Mrs. I received a few friends this morning, and each of them gave me an apple."

The principal decided to ask clearly at night, but the principal in front of him was so unhappy that he returned to the office with a slight face.

At this time, the secretary of the attendant's room sent a telegram from Yan'an. He saw that the amount of arms overdraft increased to 1 billion yuan each year before he recovered. Although it was paid in advance, he would not have to use the tax on his heart after a few years - let people who have decades of heart to heart.

The General Staff sent a combat plan to regain Taiwan. Now the route between Taiwan and the Japanese locals was almost cut off, and they barely transported some supplies by relying on foreign merchant ships. The foreign ships entering and leaving here still had to accept the zhongyāng navy that appeared in the nearby waters from time to time and searched like pirates. Once strategic materials were found, they would be confiscated without saying a word. If they dared to play tough, they would start fighting immediately.

Originally, the General Staff Headquarters wanted to leave this weakness to the Japanese, but now the situation changed and Tsarist Russia suddenly participated in the war, which caught Nanjing off guard. It was quite meaningful to recover a piece of land that had been lost for decades at this time. Furthermore, no one was afraid of the navy in the sea.

If the General Staff Headquarters had not denied their plan to launch a risky attack on Tokyo, in their opinion, Tokyo would have long been a sea of ​​fire. Of course, those who are the General Staff would not have agreed to fight the battleships and shore defense artillery positions.

But it is really difficult to pick one of the army that regained Taiwan. The zhongyāng army is now mainly distributed in the national defense line near Peiping. The reorganized 17th Army, the reorganized 19th Army, the reorganized 29th Army, the reorganized 51st Army, the reorganized 49th Army, the reorganized 67th Army, the reorganized 32nd Army, and the reorganized 1st Army and the reorganized 71st Army, the reorganized 53rd Army, the reorganized 57th Army, and the reorganized 57th Army.

The remaining forces of the zhongyāng army include Jiang Dingwen's reorganized Second Army and Wang Jun's reorganized Third Army, Zhang Fakui's reorganized Fourth Army, Xue Yue's reorganized Fifth Army, and Shandong's arrangements and personnel have not completed the dressing and the training of the Sixth Army (formerly Han Fuju's troops), Hao Mengling's reorganized Ninth Army, Xu Yuanquan's reorganized Tenth Army, Sun Xintong's reorganized Twelfth Army, Wei Lihuang's reorganized 14th Army, Chen Cheng's reorganized 18th Army, and Tan Daoyuan's reorganized Twenty-Two Army.

In addition, the Nanjing teaching corps are the direct or side forces of the zhongyāng army, with a total of 29 reorganized divisions (plus the teaching corps tax regiment) and more than 40 reorganized divisions. This more than 1.5 million troops either guard the place or guard Nanjing or are changing clothes and reorganized training. The principal has not yet decided which unit to send to recover Taiwan.

Although I have never played the landing battle, the 500,000 landing troops of the Allied Power suffered a great loss in the Ottoman during World War I. 120,000 people were killed and more than 200,000 were injured. However, the Ottoman was not considered a powerful country in World War I.

Therefore, you should be cautious when choosing landing troops. If you win like the 29th Army of the Great Wall, you will be outstanding. But if you send your direct army to the defeat, the loss seems to be too great. But this kind of thing is not easy to use lottery draw.

Regarding this matter, the principal thought about it and decided to wait for the Military Commission to hold a meeting before discussing it. In order to boost morale, Taiwan is willing to recover, the face of the zhongyāng army is needed, and the losses of the zhongyāng army are not needed, at least the above conditions must be met.

Yan'an

After all the battles in Shaanxi were completed, the remaining Japanese were cleaned up. These various ammunitions were really useful. Even though Zhang Zhizhong had a lot of reserves before the war, only bullets were enough for a while. There were either no more shells, grenades, and grenades left or were completely out of gear.

After calculation, the more than one million shells, bombs and hundreds of millions of rifle and pistols fired, only killed more than 400,000 Japanese. Zhang Zhizhong didn't know whether it was cost-effective or not. On average, three shells and nearly four hundred bullets were needed to kill a Japanese. When Zhang Zhizhong calculated the account, he felt that he might be the biggest prodigal since the Republic.

It is not clear whether there are any visitors behind, and there must be no ancients ahead. Zhang Zhizhong originally thought that the number of people was lying, but he could send someone to count the shell shells and the scrapped gun barrels, and the number could be matched. Zhang Zhizhong could not blame the following for this. Some of the main team members of the zhongyāng army were replaced half of them. As the leader, it is just used to hold the cylinder. As the saying goes, the sky falls and the tall one is to hold the top. The tallest one in Shaanxi belongs to him, the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone.

Zhang Zhizhong decided to take this matter up. When Tsarist Russia joined the war, Zhang Zhizhong, who thought he was going to be transferred, not only did not leave, but instead sat firmly in the position of commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone. Since he had to do things in this seat, Zhang Zhizhong gritted his teeth to send telegrams to Nanjing and Peking, and more supplies were needed here. Without enough ammunition and materials, the troops would have no combat power, and the zhongyāng army would have nothing to do.

Now it is not a good idea to cross the Yellow River to fight the Japanese who are waiting for the enemy. But the significance of the zhongyāng army here is that this location is to the west of the Jinsui Army, the east of the Ma family army and the south of the Japanese. There are not very reliable friendly troops on both sides, and the Japanese who have just stopped a little in front.
