    Chapter 166: Counterattack against Wind and Thunder (Part 2)

    The results are amazing, but the consumption is also amazing.  Especially for the Air Force, the B-17 can carry 16 bombs of 500 kilograms each at a time. If you replace them with smaller bombs of 200 kilograms, they will be as expensive as rain when they fall.

    Within five days of the start of a counterattack in East Kazakhstan, a quarter of the reserves of the entire Central Asian Military District were consumed.  This is more than three years of reserves.  The current war is just the beginning. Based on a war of at least five years, it is not enough to throw away all the wealth accumulated by the country in the past twenty years.  Song Ziwen is already planning to issue a new round of national bonds.

    In a courtyard in Dihua City, Fang Jianxiong stood in the courtyard looking at the grape trellis in a daze, while Duan Feng was reporting on the logistics situation in his ears.  "The current front line is not too long. The original Siberian Railway section has remained Russian-made without any changes, and the domestic stock of locomotives is sufficient. In Siberia, the front line has been pushed to Omsk, which is almost the limit. Otherwise, it will be the limit now.  With transportation capabilities, it simply cannot support the logistical supplies of a million-strong army. The situation in Central Asia is even worse. Our railways are metric and Maozi is Russian. Fortunately, the logistics department ordered 100,000 trucks before and after the war.  , are moving to Central Asia one after another. If we want to launch the next major battle and push the front to the Caspian Sea, it will take at least three months of preparation."

    There was movement at the door of the courtyard. Fang Jianxiong glanced at it and said, "Put the materials down and let me read them slowly. Prime Minister Shaochuan needs to report more." The person who came in was Chen Brai. After walking up to Fang Jianxiong, he whispered: "President,  The United States has proposed to send a military observation mission. The first representative is Weimet. The German Minister Taudmann came from Beijing and asked to see you."

    "In principle, I agree with the Americans' request. After all, we now rely on the Americans for a lot of things. If we don't agree this time, I don't know which link will get stuck next time. By the way, Duan Feng. Huabo's engines and transportation links are still there.  Is it going well?" Fang Jianxiong suddenly changed the topic. He was used to the president's jumping thoughts and said with a prepared smile: "So far, there are no problems. HP is expanding its engine factory in China, and related supporting equipment  Companies are also expanding production. Once HP completes its capacity expansion, it will no longer have to rely on imports for the large engines it needs."

    "The key to industrialization is talent, and this aspect is our shortcoming. The country is still too poor, and it only sent 200,000 international students in twenty years. In the late Qing Dynasty, domestic polytechnic universities have not been valued by the provinces. It seems that a university cannot  It's not like a good university with literature and history as the first priority. By the time we come to change, it will be too late. Let's not mention these. Where is Taudman?"

    Chen Builei said: "Just wait in the living room of the other courtyard. He has been here for ten minutes. I don't see you busy."

    Fang Jianxiong smiled and said: "It's okay, things are different now. It's okay to let the foreign devils wait. Come on, change your clothes!"

    On formal occasions, Fang Jianxiong must wear a formal Tang suit. This round-neck Tang suit was designed by Fang himself.  President Fang thinks it is okay for national leaders in parallel time and space to wear suits or jackets on formal occasions, but he always feels that there is less meaning.  Thus, an improved version of Tang suit was born, based on the idea of ??a certain Tang suit from parallel time and space.

    Because of President Fang Da¡¯s personal preference, he led the trend of Tang suit in official circles.  Holding clothes in her hands, a girl in national costume named Gulandam appeared.  The local chief is also the daughter of the provincial speaker.  All the female waiters in this courtyard are girls wearing national costumes.  The local officials arranged this, and President Fang Da accepted it calmly. This can be regarded as a show.  Mr. Fang has not implemented any preferential treatment policies. Anyway, all ethnic groups are equal.  In addition, since the Republic of China, immigration to Xinjiang has not stopped. More than 50 million people have moved from the mainland, which has greatly eased the local population ratio.

    The girl¡¯s soft and tall body undulated slightly in front of her body. When buttoning the buttons, this ethnic girl was obviously a little nervous, because it was her first turn to be on duty today.  In the past, when others were on duty, she looked forward to her turn to be on duty. When it was really her turn to be on duty, her hands were shaking nervously when she stood in front of this great man who was regarded as a god by her tribe.

    Fang is already an old bird and will not be aroused by the beautiful girl in front of him.  After accepting the service calmly, he politely said thank you.  At the beginning, Fang Jianxiong meant that he didn't need to serve like this. Unexpectedly, the girl who was serving him burst into tears for the first time, saying that if he didn't accept it, he was looking down on her and the locals.  So, someone followed the good deeds.

    There are twenty similar girls in this courtyard, all of whom are carefully selected. They come from local wealthy families and have received at least a degree from Dihua University.  According to Dai Chunfeng's report, this arrangement was proposed by Cassiloni, the speaker of the local parliament.  Responsible for the daily life of President Fang Da, these twenty girls come in shifts, with five people in each shift.  Temporary like thisThe job of clothing must be decided by drawing lots.  It is always these seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls who are looking forward to such opportunities to perform.

    President Fang has disappeared, and the long-legged girl is still in a daze. He just said thank you to me.  That's the thought in my head.

    Dihua has a big temperature difference between day and night. Tao Deman, who flew to Dihua last night, had to wear a suit jacket when he got up in the morning. As soon as the sun came out after nine o'clock, it was so hot that he had to wear short sleeves.  Because he was not prepared for this, Toddman was now wearing a long-sleeved shirt and his forehead was covered with sweat.

    When Fang Jianxiong appeared, Tao Deman was still wiping sweat.  "Haha, old friend, is this your first time here?"

    The President took the initiative to greet him, and Toddman quickly put away his handkerchief and said, "Yes, President, I made you laugh."

    A long-legged girl brought the iced sour plum soup. Fang Jianxiong was not polite. After taking a sip, he relaxed his brows and said in German: "Old friend, your improvement looks good, does it bring any good news?"

    Taudeman took out a letter and said: "This is the autographed letter from the head of state to you." Fang Jianxiong took Mustache's autographed letter and read it in front of Taudeman.  Mustache's handwritten letter first contained compliments, and then tactfully stated that Germany was preparing for war with Britain.  It is difficult for a certain regime to cooperate with China in eradicating evil. Please express your understanding to President Fang.  At the same time, he wished China a victory in the war and made a request to send an observation mission.

    Sino-German relations have always been very good, but the future world structure has always been a headache for Fang Jianxiong.  If Germany fails.  The United States dominates Europe, which is definitely not a good thing for China.  If China and the United States are to coexist in the world in the future, it will definitely not be a stable structure. The most stable structure will be the coexistence of three powers.  When such an idea flashed through Fang Jianxiong's mind, he was shocked. If Europe was dominated by Germany in the future and the Soviet Union was "disintegrated", then even if the United States participated in the war, it would be in vain. This idea made Fang Jianxiong break into a cold sweat.  They were all shocked, this was too bold.

    The person with the mustache.  It can be messy sometimes.  Make a deal with him.  Isn¡¯t this unreliable?  Let's take it one step at a time, let the mustache struggle in Europe first, and let China drag out the Soviet Union.  Without Germany on the Eastern Front, even if the United States and Britain had the ability to land, would they still dare to play in Normandy?

    The more Fang Jianxiong thought about it, the more he felt that the world structure in this time and space was too complicated. If China faced the Soviet Union independently, what kind of world structure would it be like at the end of this war?  What if, in the later stages of the war, China and the United States all possess nuclear weapons?

    If Britain is defeated, the American emperor and Mustache will definitely fight to the death in the Atlantic Ocean. According to Mustache¡¯s temper, he will definitely go to America.  It¡¯s hard to think about the situation when the time comes but not exciting.

    Fang Jianxiong fell into deep thought.  He was silent for a long time.  Todman felt nervous. The current Sino-German relationship is very delicate, and its root lies in Japan.  In order to encourage Japan to go south, Mustache promised some benefits. If these things were known to China, they would definitely seriously affect Sino-German relations.  When a secret anti-Japanese alliance was concluded with Japan, Todman was one of the opponents.  Living in China for a long time made him realize how terrible the awakening China is. The resilience of this nation determines the amazing war potential of this nation.  Taudman knows very well that President Fang has been swinging between China and the United States and China and Germany, and has always been the target of the two countries' efforts to win over. Now that China-US relations have the upper hand, once the United States is involved in a war, it will definitely stand on its side.  British side.  The combination of Germany and Japan really has little chance of winning against the combination of China and the United States.  China has a population of more than 500 million. Just a few years after the founding of the Republic of China, the population has reached 600 million.  This almost invincible war resource cannot be matched by any country.  As long as supplies are sufficient, 50 million people can be fully armed.

    Todman takes it for granted that China¡¯s biggest problem is not population, but production capacity and transportation capacity.  How to provide supplies for an army of 50 million?  Unless the U.S. imperialists massively support China out of its duty as an ally, with China's existing industrial capabilities, five million troops is almost the limit. If the number of troops is increased to 10 million, it will severely damage our vitality and we will not be able to finish the war.  It won't be able to recover in thirty years.  But as long as war doesn't end, anything will happen.  In order to win the final victory, if it really comes to that point, it is not impossible to arm 50 million people to resist the invasion within the country.  Now, we are fighting overseas, and five million people is the limit of logistics.  Any more, and you'll be hungry during the war.

    "I have no objection to the military observation mission, but it is best to submit it to the cabinet for approval. It is necessary to go through the normal procedures. There is also a US military observation mission coming soon. This situation must be discussed with old friends.  Please explain. In addition, please tell the head of your country about the coming of European Jews to China and relax the policy. China currently has a serious shortage of industrial workers, and Jews are still a very good labor force.??" Fang Jianxiong thought about it for a while and replied like this.

    This reply made Taudeman overjoyed. The reason for coming to see him this time was mainly about military matters.  Germany was very concerned about the war between China and the Soviet Union.  The reason is very simple. Mustache wishes that China and the Soviet Union would fight each other so hard that their vitality would be severely damaged.  No matter from which angle you look at it, Mustache wants to see China and Soda fight to the death most, so that he can take care of Britain with peace of mind.  The British Navy in this time and space failed to complete the important task of destroying the French Navy. Fakely, the strength of the German Navy has now been greatly enhanced.  Coupled with the Bismarck that is about to be commissioned, the German Navy already has the strength to shake Britain's security at sea.

    Not to mention, Germany¡¯s submarine performance has gradually come to light recently. At present, German submarines have not yet provoked the strength of British warships, but breaking diplomatic relations at sea is the specialty of German submarines.  In August, the German submarine force sank a British freighter of 100,000 tons. At the beginning of September, it sank 30,000 tons. This trend is very good.

    At this time, China was tightly entangled with the Soviet Union, and Hitler could already envision the great situation of unifying Europe.

    "Todman's meeting came to a successful conclusion, and he left without lingering for long.  Before Fang Jianxiong had a chance to continue reading the materials, Chen Brai came again: "British Minister Johnson has arrived in Dihua." Fang Jianxiong was surprised that the British never seemed to pay enough attention to China, and the position of minister was often lifelong.  The last minister, Zhu Erdian, worked in China for n years. He was replaced only after he retired when he could no longer do the job.  This is not like the United States, which changes every few years.

    "When did Zhuang Sen arrive? How come there was no news at all in advance?" Fang Jianxiong looked unhappy, and Chen Brai couldn't say anything. This matter was handled by Beijing, and it was not his place to say anything.

    "That's not clear." Chen Bulei replied. Fang Jianxiong was certainly not satisfied. He waved his hand and said, "Let Yu Nong do it."

    Dai Chunfeng was able to accompany him, and he cherished this opportunity. His residence was nearby, and he ran over immediately after receiving the call. When he saw President Fang Da, he didn't even wipe the sweat from his forehead.  "Wipe the sweat first!" Fang Jianxiong was in a better mood. The Military Intelligence Bureau was not entirely to blame for this incident, but similar surveillance would be arrested in the future.

    "The British minister is here, how did he get here?" Fang Jianxiong asked in an artistic way. Dai Chunfeng broke into a cold sweat when he heard this, thinking that he had made a major mistake in his work.  Fortunately, the president is a very generous person and has no intention of blaming.

    "I'll go and ask." Dai Chunfeng's attitude was very good, which also showed that he had arranged someone beside the British minister. Fang Jianxiong was very satisfied with this performance, nodded and pointed to the phone on the table.  "President, it's better to use the telegraph. The phone is not safe." Dai Chunfeng explained responsibly. Fang Jianxiong smiled slightly, nodded and said nothing.

    Less than twenty minutes after leaving, Dai Chunfeng came back and reported: "It's clear, Zhuang Sen came on a China Civil Aviation plane. He didn't say hello to the cabinet beforehand, so the capital didn't report it."

    "These British guys think that now is the past, and they can come and go as they please in China. Notify the outside world that Zhuang Sen will wait for three days when he comes. Forget it, prepare the plane immediately, and I will return to the capital tomorrow." Fang Jianxiong thought about it.  I thought, changed my mind.  I was worried before, but now there is no need. It is difficult to grasp the overall situation in Dihua.  Moreover, in the materials submitted by Dai Chunfeng, it was recently discovered that some officials had made a fuss about the military supply issue, and Fang Jianxiong wanted to go back and rectify it.
