    ¡¾276¡¿Sino-British War Spring of 1886, Miyun Reservoir in Beijing.  [ The wind is slightly cold and refreshing on the face. The willow trees can¡¯t wait to dance with the wind as soon as they take out their buds. The daisies and their friends emerge from the soft new soil and look at this new world sleepily.  Yao Fan took his nine-year-old daughter Yao Yutian, carrying shovels and saplings with central government cadres, to the Miyun Reservoir in Beijing, which was initially completed in late winter last year. They wanted to plant trees on the barren slopes nearby.  These comrades are old and young, some have white beards and hair, some have hairless mouths, they all have different looks, but they have one thing in common. They all smile, like children on a spring outing at home, pointing to the completed Miyun.  Reservoir, happiness blooms with pride on the face.  The achievements made by the motherland in the Second Five-Year Plan are so brilliant. How can the people not be proud of this?  How can you not be happy?  According to the statistics of the Second Five-Year Plan just completed in 1886, the People's Republic of China had a crude steel production of 12 million tons, which is equal to the total steel production of other countries in the world except China, and about 4 million tons of the second-placed United Kingdom.  Three times the steel production.  At the same time, the People's Republic of China also has a production capacity of 13 million tons of pig iron, 16 million tons of cement production, 30 million tons of crude oil production, 70 billion kilowatt hours of power generation capacity, 500 million tons of raw coal production capacity, 7 million tons of sulfuric acid production capacity, and 50,000 kilometers of railway lines.  , 1,000 kilometers of electrified railways, 20,000 kilometers of civil air routes, more than 1.5 million civilian cars, an annual consumption of 16 million tons of pork, beef and mutton, a population that has expanded to 590 million, more than 70 million primary school students, and various ordinary colleges and universities.  The number of college students in schools has exceeded 1 million, and the number of students in TV teaching colleges and universities has exceeded 20 million This terrifying development speed is like turning on alien technology, which has made the whole world look stupid. In addition to most indicators reaching new levels  In addition to China's level in the 1960s, some indicators, such as power generation, have reached the level in the 1970s by leaps and bounds.  China's state-owned economy accounts for more than 85% of the entire national economy. The private economy has also developed rapidly, filling the gaps in the state-owned economy in every corner. It has not only increased the number of employees, but also improved the overall efficiency and scale of the national economy. Rural animal husbandry and breeding  The food and feed industry has developed rapidly, pig and dairy farming have become common in rural areas, the shipbuilding industry is extremely prosperous, and the aircraft manufacturing industry is in the ascendant. There are 281 large and small shipyards across the country, light tanks and armored vehicles are installed in major army groups, and fighter jets and bombers are beginning to join  In the battle sequence, 10,000-ton gunboats and missile frigates appeared in the Navy, and the construction of aircraft carriers has also been put on the agenda of the Third Five-Year Plan.  With the completion of the Second Five-Year Plan, the People's Republic of China has become like a muscular giant, overlooking the entire world with the height of Mount Everest.  Today, if China stomps its foot lightly, the whole world will tremble three times!  "Chairman, we're here. This is the hill ahead." The guard reported to Yao Fan.  Yao Fan's face is pale. This has nothing to do with his mood. It is mainly caused by frequent blood loss.  Frequent time and space teleportation, even with blood transfusions every time, is still a bit too much.  His body always feels heavy now. Since the birth of his and Golden Eagle's third child, his figure has become thinner and thinner.  "Comrades, let's get started!" Yao Fan picked up the shovel in an elegant manner, shoveled it down, and dug it deeply into the soil.  ?????????????????????????????????????????????????In this world, the arms race has entered a fever pitch.  After China exported the technical data and a batch of production equipment for the Mauser 98 rifle to Germany, the Germans actually produced the quality-qualified Mauser 98 in just one year. Although the bullet production capacity was still limited, it was finally  It has a mature bolt-action rifle with a lower magazine.  The UK wasted its time imitating the 56 semi-automatic rifle. Not only was it unable to master the industrial precision processing of high twist rifling and the metallurgical formula of barrel steel to prevent overheating and deformation, it was also unable to break through the imitation of bullets, and the manufactured cartridge cases  The bullet jamming rate was astonishingly high. It would jam once or twice out of ten rounds, and the firing pin in the gun would break from time to time. This made the frustrated British Army have to give up its ambitious plan and adopt a simultaneous backup plan.  A domestically invented Lee-Metford bolt-action rifle with a magazine, but the sights, butt, sling, bayonet and other details are completely copied from the 56 semi-automatic.  Following China, various countries put smokeless gunpowder into use on a large scale. As a result, various countries not only tightened their belts and launched bolt-action rifles on a large scale, but also invested great efforts in developing stronger artillery and machine guns. The armies of various countries continued to update their equipment like a revolving door.  Very happy.  Following Germany, the United Kingdom also manufactured its own powder detector. Although this glass tube filled with metal shavings was very different from the vacuum tube, it was the first step towards a formal wireless telegraph machine.  .  However, after the two countries discovered wireless telegraph technology, in addition to building a few prototypes and engaging in several serious long-distance communications, in the field of telegraphDespite the big fanfare, it has not been put into production.  This is mainly because the quality and performance of Chinese products on the market are far inferior to their self-made powder detectors and radios. Rather than producing unreliable domestic products, it is better to stock up on Chinese products in large quantities to prepare for war.  In the summer of 1881, a socialist liberation movement led by the Labor International broke out in the British colony of Burma, and the People's Republic of China spontaneously formed a peacekeeping force with the participation of China and Siam.  Of course, according to the original liberation constitution, Siam has no armed forces other than the police. Instead, it pays military expenses to China every year, and China helps with military protection.  United Nations troops poured into Myanmar and completed the formation of the Socialist Republic of Myanmar within a month. At the beginning of its establishment, Myanmar joined the United Nations, and all diplomacy and military affairs followed Siamese practices.  At this time, Britain finally reached the point of intolerance and declared war on China.  Prior to this, Britain had been preparing for five years, working hard and trying hard to build an army of 200,000 in the Indian colonies.  The Royal Navy has completed a large-scale reorganization. The East India Fleet has become the largest fleet outside the British Home Fleet, with 139 warships of various types. It has compiled multiple sets of cooperative fighting styles and tactics to target the Chinese fleet!  In order to interrupt China's rise by force, the United Kingdom and the United States signed the Atlantic Agreement, proposing that both parties jointly manage the Atlantic Ocean.  Abandoning the Ottoman Turks, they signed an agreement with Russia to hand over Cyprus and the outlet of the Bosporus to Russia. In this way, Britain combined the North American Fleet, the Atlantic Fleet, and the Mediterranean Fleet into one to form the Great Home Fleet.  .  The South African Fleet, East African Fleet, Cape Fleet, East India Fleet, West India Fleet, and Pacific Fleet were combined to form the Overseas Grand Fleet.  When the sun never sets, the empire chooses to make a desperate move.  Almost at the same time that Britain declared war, China chose to respond. The Kunming Theater was mobilized, roaring westward from Myanmar, and assaulted Dhaka and Calcutta.  The newly-established Tashkent Theater rushed southward to Kabul, Islamabad, and Lahore.  The Chengdu War Zone, which has been reorganized into the Lhasa War Zone, went south from the Shigatse and Ngari areas, crossed the Himalayan passes, and attacked Kathmandu and Chandigarh.  The South China Sea Fleet, which has built a forward base in Banda Aceh, led the Marine Corps and launched an attack on the coastal ports of East India.  Before France, the Netherlands, and Spain, Britain's current allies, could react, the revolutionary army had already rushed into India and expanded the Indian liberation campaign to the entire border.
