“The top priority right now is to find a way to solve the problem, not the time to say such things!”
“That’s right, the Hans have formed an alliance with the Eagles, and we must prepare early, otherwise we will definitely suffer great losses in the future!”
“We believe that we must immediately strengthen our defense on the Western Front to prevent any unexpected events!”
“I’m afraid that’s not enough. We had a lot of land taken away by the Borese before, which resulted in our defense line on the western front being incomplete. If we want to strengthen our defense, we must take back the land taken by the Borese!”
“Otherwise, we can fight with Borland again. The Borlands have been taught a lesson by Hans several times before, and their strength is not as good as before. In addition, the attention of the British Empire and Gaul is now���With Hans in the west, he has no time to care about the life and death of the Polish people. This is a great opportunity for us!”
Someone suggested taking action against Poland. The Russians had no good feelings towards this country that split from their own country and wanted to kill it. In their battle plans, a surprise attack on Poland and the destruction of Poland have always been the favorite battle plans of the staff!
In the heated discussion of the crowd, the awkward atmosphere caused by Marshal Tukhachevsky’s inappropriate words was immediately diluted. Starling glanced at Tukhachevsky, and then said:”Speed up the construction of a modern and powerful army. The navy must at least establish a near-shore defense force that can protect our coastline. This is the focus of our next work!”
The leader spoke, and everyone sat up straight and carefully took note of Starling’s arrangements.
“How is the progress at the Kharkov Machinery Plant?”
After talking about the general issues, Starlin talked about a few things that he was more concerned about, the most important of which involved the tanks of the army and the aircraft of the air force!
The Kharkov Machinery Plant was established from the beginning to produce tanks for the Russians. In the past few years, because they faced technical difficulties, they chose to introduce 1,000 Type 1 tanks from Hans. While equipping the troops with the Type 1 tanks, they also sent some tanks to research institutes in various places for disassembly and research.
By studying Hans’s Type 1 tank, the Russians accumulated a lot of experience and successfully solved the difficulties they faced. As a result, the first generation of Russian tanks, the T-12 tank, was finally born!
“The first generation of tanks has been successfully developed and rolled off the production line. A total of 12 tanks have been produced, code-named T-12 tanks. This tank is equipped with four machine guns and a 4mm tank gun and weighs 20 tons. In terms of firepower and protection, this tank has completely surpassed the Hans I tank!”
Khrushchev, who is in charge of the direct tank business, said confidently!
After Starlin launched an internal purge, Khrushchev became his supporter, and he also gave him a favor by promoting him rapidly and making him a member of the Industrial Committee!
Because Khrushchev had studied at Starlin University of Technology, Starlin gave Khrushchev the important task of developing and producing the first tank independently by the Russian Bear!
This task is not just a military task, it is also a political task!
The tank is a weapon that Starlin supports and invests heavily in developing. If this weapon can be successfully put into production and perform well in combat, then Starlin’s prestige will be further enhanced, and the authority of his words will be consolidated, which is of great significance for Starlin to stabilize his foundation.
On the contrary, if the work on the tank project fails, then this failure will definitely become a weapon for political enemies to attack Starlin. If he finds any evidence against Starlin, it will have an adverse impact on his personal prestige and political reputation!
Therefore, for Starlin, the task can only succeed, not fail!
And the person in charge of this task must be his own heart! The fact that
Khrushchev can take on this task as a technical official is already the result that Starlin trusts him enough. If he can do this well, his future will be limitless!
Khrushchev is very smart, he is a little deeper, so when reporting on his work, he only picks up the good things and never says something that hits morale!
Seeing Khrushchev’s confident look, Starlin believed his words.
He said with satisfaction:”Very good, the first generation of tanks of the Hans could only be copied intact on the basis of the Gauls, without even a main gun, and it was completely reduced to an armored vehicle. Our first tank not only has a main gun, but also has greater protection capabilities and tonnage than Hans. This shows that we are at the forefront of the world in the field of tank research and development!”
Walking in the forefront of the world” made the senior officials of the Russian government very excited. They straightened their chests and felt very proud of it!
They didn’t even think about it. When was Hans’s first tank produced? When was their first tank produced?
There was a gap of five years between the two!
In five years, Hans had developed the second generation of tanks, while the first generation of Russian tanks had just been produced. They had not been tested, let alone finalized!
Without completing these, it means that they cannot mass-produce on a large scale!
In general, the T-12 tank of the Russian bear is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water, very empty!
……
In Jiaoben, when the news of Hans’ alliance with Yingjiang came, Taisho Tianhuang had just passed away.
Because of the birth of antibiotics, he lived half a year longer than in history, but severe hypostatic pneumonia still tortured the old man who had been bedridden for more than half a year to death.
As if it weren’t bad enough, when the whole country of Jiaoben was in mourning and immersed in the grief of Tianhuang’s death, such bad news came from the other side of the ocean, which made the sky of Jiaoben covered with a layer of dark clouds again, making the atmosphere of the whole Jiaoben even more depressing!
“It doesn’t matter. Although Hans is powerful, they can’t cross half the world to cause trouble for us. Their alliance with the Eagle Sauce is nothing more than sharing some of the pressure on the Eagle Sauce in the Atlantic, allowing the Eagle Sauce to devote more troops to deal with us!”
When Prime Minister Jiaoben learned the news, he tried hard to act as if he had everything under control, so as to reduce the panic in the hearts of the people as much as possible.
He knew that if he didn’t do this, the fear of the alliance between the two powers would make the people of Jiaoben completely lose confidence!
At this time, it had been nearly a year since they launched the invasion war against the Celestial Empire!
This war consumed a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources of Jiaoben. Although because of the war, their domestic unemployment problem has been somewhat solved, a large number of young and middle-aged laborers have been conscripted into the army to fight in the Celestial Empire, and the number of unemployed people in the country has dropped a lot.
In addition, due to the fierce fighting on the front line, the orders of domestic military factories increased significantly, and also absorbed a lot of employment. Therefore, after entering the second half of 1927, the situation in Jiaoben eased a little!
However, due to the sanctions of the League of Nations, Jiaoben suffered heavy losses in trade. , and because they invaded China, China launched a wave of boycotting Japanese goods, which had a great impact on the export of Foot Basin!
They could still solve the problem of League of Nations sanctions by asking their ally, the British Empire, for help, but the problem of China’s boycott was difficult to solve, so their most important thing right now was to end the war with China as soon as possible and take over China’s northeast region!
Because the war lasted for a year, Foot Basin failed to take over China as quickly as expected, so there were many voices of opposition within Foot Basin, and they all believed that the war should not have been fought.
The wavering emotions of the people and even the army made the prospects of this war unclear.
At this time, the bad news of Hans’ alliance with Eagle Sauce was an even more serious blow, so Prime Minister Foot Basin had to convince his own people and cabinet members that Hans’ alliance with Eagle Sauce would not have much impact on them.
“After all, Hans and the Eagle Sauce are all targeting our allies. The sun never sets on them, so they are the ones who should be anxious!”
……
Western Europe, the sun never sets on the mainland!
Prime Minister Lloyd George secretly summoned the new director of MI6 to learn about the situation.
Because he had been away from politics for a long time, he didn’t know whether the intelligence he had before was outdated, so he needed to update the intelligence he had!
“I don’t know if that guy is still alive. He was President Will’s most trusted successor. If he is still in politics, we can invest in him and let him run for president. As long as he can become president, our plan to alienate Hans and Eagle Sauce will be at least half successful!”
