    PS: The second update is here ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ At this time, the British and American camps and the Soviet and German camps have fallen into a stalemate.  Let¡¯s talk about the British and American side first. On the Atlantic battlefield, German snorkel electric submarines were extremely rampant, which made the British and American escort forces stretched and difficult to cope with. As a result, British and American merchant ships suffered heavy losses. For almost a whole year, the tonnage sunk was much higher.  in new tonnage.  Several large-scale counterattacks launched by the Allies in Africa were repelled by the Soviet Union.  In addition, the large-scale use of German jet fighters severely hampered the strategic bombing of Germany, and the losses of bombers were so high that the United States and Britain were heartbroken.  Now the situation in the Indian subcontinent has collapsed again. This bad news one after another has dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Allied forces.  If the United States had not immediately launched a national mobilization, frantically increased the production of materials, and purchased a large number of merchant ships with materials from China and the People's Revolutionary League countries, and increased the transportation volume to the United Kingdom, I am afraid that the United Kingdom would really have  It may not be supported.  From the beginning of the war to the end of August 1942, the British and American transport fleets had lost more than 9,000 ships to the attack of German wolves, and the loss reached an astonishing 50 million tons.  More than three times the total results.  If the United States had not increased its shipbuilding capacity to desperately make up for it, and more importantly, China, the world's factory, sold a large number of merchant ships to support it, Britain would have starved to death long ago.  Among the merchant ships sunk by German wolves, 26 million tons were sold by China. In the past three years, China has sold an average of 1,600 ships each year, and about 12 million tons of merchant ships filled with supplies to the British and American Allies. On average, it takes  Sell ??five boats!  Naturally, some of them were sold to the German and Soviet armies, but they were much smaller, only a few million tons.  Because the sales to these two companies are mainly by land, and there are now two Eurasian railways, China's supplies can be directly delivered to Sud.  It is precisely because of the importance of China as the world's factory that even though Cactus Ghana is dissatisfied with Wen Desi's war fortune, and Fatty Qiu hates Wen Desi with a piercing hatred, they dare not speak out in anger, and even can  He said that he was being played with at will, given everything he wanted, and his dignity was completely lost, but he still had to put on a smile to show off.  This is the most fundamental reason why they dare not anger China.  Otherwise, don't talk about going to sea to join the war. As long as China cuts off the pipeline for supplying ships, Britain will collapse within three months.  In the past few years, the two British and American bosses, especially Fatty Qiu, have had a taste of being slapped in the face with shoe soles stained with cow dung, and then they have to flatter and laugh like ****.  But for the same reason, Wen Desi's reputation in China is already at its peak, eclipsing all the great men and wise emperors in history. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as he says he wants to proclaim himself emperor today, he will be more than 99% more popular tomorrow.  The people would shout and dance, and happily welcome him to the throne and enthrone him.  The reason is very simple, because there is no one in China who is not his interest partner, no one who has not benefited from him, and no one who is not a vested interest in his policies.  Emerging capitalists, businessmen, workers and logistics practitioners in various public and private enterprises in China have all made a lot of money in the frenzy of overseas procurement of civilian supplies and arms in recent years.  Even farmers and agricultural companies who obtained homesteads in the new territories exported large quantities of their grain, non-staple food products to Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union. Of course, a large part of them was sunk to the bottom of the sea by German wolves during transportation.  .  But as long as they receive the money, who cares if what they sell is fed to people or fish?  Even when China was attacking Nanyang and maintaining peace in the subcontinent in recent years, it did not enter a national mobilization system. At the end of last year, when the victory of the Sino-Nanyang War was in sight, the number of the Chinese People's Liberation Army at its peak was only 6 million, and it has now been demobilized.  Disarmament is back to 5.5 million.  In other words, the wars China has fought in recent years can only be regarded as local wars, and the country as a whole has always been in peacetime.  ¡°Compared to China, not to mention Germany, the United States, which has the strongest war potential, has already mobilized 11 million people and entered a nationwide mobilization general war system.  And the current population of the United States is only a little more than one-eighth of China's (low in 1941, China's population was 945 million, and the United States' population was 121 million).  In short, after the outbreak of World War II, reselling arms and supplies everywhere, making a lot of money from war and dead people, is exactly what China is now, just like the United States during the European War in the original time and space.  <p Moreover, China has done far worse than the United States at the time. At that time, the United States provided unilateral support and had a very serious bias. It sold a large amount of arms and supplies to the United Kingdom and France, which can be said to have a clear position.  But now China and Japan's fire supplies are sold on both sides, and they are sold at a great price.  For the allies who lacked merchant ships and supplies due to the raging wolves, we sold them merchant ships and supplies. For the Soviet and German camps whose military strength was insufficient, we sold them merchant ships and supplies.They resell weapons to strengthen their strength and make the war drag on longer. Even current submarines and aircraft (treaty submarines and various turboprop aircraft) are still being sold.  ¡° Moreover, China¡¯s major companies also took advantage of the fact that the two warring countries entered the wartime system and were unable to compete in civilian supplies, and launched a global attack to seize the private market.  Simply selling everything and making money from everything.  Of course, Wen Desi himself has already become the world's richest man. At present, the total assets of various major enterprises headed by Xingke Consortium, as well as black, white and gray vest companies in various countries, etc., are under his name. The most conservative estimate is  It has also exceeded 80 billion yuan, and is still growing at a rapid rate.  This is a truly wealthy country.  Well, Comrade Ulyanov did not reveal enough about him back then, because he was not only the largest capitalist in China, but also the largest capitalist in the world.  By the way, most of China¡¯s arms sales to the United Kingdom and the United States are rerouted through the United States, rather than sold directly by the United Kingdom.  Because China requires the use of hard currency or materials such as real gold and silver to pay for goods.  There are more German wolves in this plane than there were in the original time and space. This is a proper large electric submarine with high concealment and long-term self-sustainability.  With the support of the "cows" (supply submarines), they can travel all over the world. Not only are they the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, they also have the Indian and Pacific oceans.  Coupled with the powerful sound-guided oxygen torpedoes, these guys are not an ordinary threat.  And the way Britain is now, even if it has gold, silver and supplies, it is difficult to transport them out.  So in most cases, China first sells arms merchant ships to the United States, and then the United States provides them to the United Kingdom through the Lend-Lease Act.  Even if China later began to provide loans, the creditors were mainly the United States. Although the United Kingdom also owed a lot of debt to China, it was much less than the United States.  The reason for this is naturally that Wen Desi did not believe in Britain's solvency from the bottom of his heart.  In the past few years, through large sales of arms, merchant ships and civilian supplies, Wen Desi has bought back all the Chinese cultural relics that were exiled in the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and even the Soviet Union, and even exchanged cultural relics that were not Chinese.  Come back a lot.  Well, most of them are given to China in the name of "gift" or "exchange". Wen Desi will never spend a lot of money to buy cultural relics that others have stolen.  Of course, China did a lot of this kind of thing during World War I, and now there are not many cultural relics lost outside the country. They are mainly concentrated in the United States or in the hands of some private collectors in various countries.  These things still follow the old rules, first create a file for all, then create a digital model after 3D scanning and then archive it.  Relevant experts will then review them, and the most meaningful and valuable ones will be sent to the National Museum of China in the capital, followed by others to various local museums, and the third ones will be auctioned to domestic private auctions.  At this time, many wealthy people have emerged in China. Following the outbreak of World War I and World War II, many millionaires, multi-millionaires, and even billionaires emerged.  These rich people have to show off when they have money, and antiques are of course the best equipment.  These antiques and works of art were sold at very high prices, and the funds after the auction were sent to the national treasury as special income. Under normal circumstances, this income is used for public welfare projects such as charity and environmental protection. ?????????????????????????????????????????????? This kind of funds will be marked as coming from someone, the amount, the operating cost, and the actual amount disbursed are all announced on the portal website, with extremely high transparency.  For bidders, it is equivalent to indirectly doing public welfare, so this kind of auction is very popular.  The local tycoons have gained face, and their bidding mentality has naturally become more intense. As a result, many objects have been auctioned at exaggerated prices.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ Hanking, Presidential Palace.  "Mr. Wen, urgent information, the Soviet Union is about to make peace with the United States" Director of the National Intelligence Bureau Huo Jinsi hurriedly came to report.  "Well, I understand" Wen Desi nodded calmly after reading the top-secret information sent back from Moscow: "Xiaolu, please inform the Central Committee members to hold an emergency meeting" "Okay  " Gu Xiaolu hurriedly went to arrange the meeting.  Within three hours, all 188 Central Committee members were present except those who were sick and hospitalized.  Western Governor Ximen Fukiyuki and other big shots in other places used a confidential line to activate the remote conference mode and participate in the meeting online.  Zhang Lizheng, who presided over the meeting, first introduced the situation: "Comrades Vice President Tao and Chairman Qiu are not in good health and have asked for leave. Lao Lu from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is still on the plane and cannot conduct remote meetings The number of people attending the meeting now is  183 people, the number that meets the meeting rules, let¡¯s start now.¡± Then he ordered the confidential secretaries to distribute the relevant information.  For those big shots in remote meetings, it is sent to their dedicated confidential meeting terminals.
