The first blaster finally managed to get close to a Benlang 1 tank. He blew the fuse of the grenade, held up the cluster grenade emitting green smoke, and buried himself under the track of the tank.With a loud bang, the Benlang 1 tank, which can only be regarded as a light tank, could not withstand such a violent explosion, and the violent shock wave directly overturned the tank.

Where there was the first, there was the second, and as the sound of explosions continued, one tank after another was destroyed.The Cossack cavalry and infantry who were walking behind woke up immediately. They waved their rifles and fired one after another, blocking the approaching Red Roman soldiers.

Those Red Roman soldiers without grenades rushed past the tank without hesitation, as if they didn't care about the threat from behind.All they knew was to pick up their bayonets and rush to the shocked Cossacks in front of them.

Seeing the Red Roman soldiers charging desperately, the Cossack soldiers had no choice but to give up their rifles and drew out their sabers or bayonets to meet them.After enduring huge casualties, the Red Luo army successfully mixed with the Rakshasa infantry, turning the unusually modern offensive and defensive battle into a medieval hand-to-hand combat.Both sides fought with swords and guns, and blood and flesh flew across the battlefield. This was a contest of perseverance and courage.On such a battlefield, any modern weapon is so pale and weak, and now the soldiers on both sides can trust only the bayonet and saber in their hands.

Ula's shouts can be heard endlessly. In such a battle, the Rakshasa army with advanced weapons obviously suffers even more.What's more, the Cossack cavalry is used to using the saber. This weapon is very powerful when fighting on horseback, but it is obviously at a disadvantage in infantry due to the length relationship, so that the Cossack cavalry is restrained by the opponent's bayonet.

Seeing that the Cossack infantry in the back was in danger of collapsing, the commanders of the tanks unanimously ordered to turn around and crush the Hong Luo soldiers with their tracks.The tank crushing of the Raksha army was very effective. Many soldiers of the Red Luo army who didn't take care of the rear were directly crushed under the car.With the sound of creaking bones, the tracks turned blood red, and there were puddles of meat mud on the ground.

After such a fierce fight, both sides were unable to fight any more, so they had to retreat to their starting positions.Seeing those Red Roman soldiers desperately fighting, Brusilov's face was very ugly. He knew that it would be very difficult to conquer Tsaritsyn this time.He had calculated thousands of times, but he didn't expect that Tsaritsin would integrate his forces in such a short period of time, turning this city, which should have been easy to win, into a steel fortress.

Knowing his situation, Brusilov immediately ordered the army to attack again, regardless of the ferocity of the Red Army.

The Raksha army's attack lasted for two days, and it was said to have suffered heavy losses in these two days. Nearly half of the tanks were missing, and more than 1 infantry and Cossack cavalry also lost more than [-] people. However, the Red Luo army in Tsaritsin was only worse.Voroshilov had a background in the labor movement, and his career as an officer was only a monk halfway through.

Voroshilov, who had never been to a military academy and had little education, was unique in engaging in political struggles, but knew nothing about fighting.Such an officer should not be taken seriously, but why did Sterling become his confidant?

It turned out that the reason why Sterling valued Voroshilov was not because of his excellent commanding ability, but because he stood firmly on Sterling's side at all times and was his loyal supporter.Let Voroshilov lead the troops, Stella is most at ease, but relying on such a commander who can only fill holes with his life, the casualties of the Red Luo Army can be imagined.

In just two days of fighting, more than 4 Red Luo Army soldiers died on the battlefield, and more than [-] people were seriously injured or disabled. Not all of them were soldiers from the Red Luo Army, because on the first day of the battle They're almost dead.Those who are holding on to their positions now are all the people in the city who have mobilized spontaneously. Because of the previous high-pressure policy of the Raksha Army, they have no way out now.

Tsaritsin's desperate resistance exhausted Brusilov, but fortunately this nightmare is coming to an end.After all, the power of spirit is not infinite. When the young people in Tsaritsin were almost exhausted, they had retreated to the last line of defense.In addition to the remaining thousands of militiamen here, Stella, Voroshilov and the political commissars around them also stood upright.

In this defensive battle, Sterling tried his best, but still couldn't regain the disadvantage.Using such a small force to hold on for two days is already the best he can do.Seeing the Rakshasa army desperately charging, Sterling sighed and said, "Order the warehouses in the city to start blasting, and don't leave them anything."

The order was sent to all parts of the city along with the phone, and the soldiers guarding the explosives lit the fuses one after another.With the sound of bang and bang explosions, the ruthless Sterling actually burned the supplies and food in the whole city.

With no retreat at all, the militiamen shouted Ula one after another, and launched a final countercharge against the oncoming Rakshasa army.Sterling also felt his blood boil, and he also picked up a rifle and rushed up.The two sides strangled together again, but this time the Raksha Army still had more than 3 troops, while the Red Luo Army had only [-] insufficiently trained militia fighters left.

There was no suspense in the battle between the two sides. For every three people killed by the insufficiently trained militiamen, one Rakshasa veteran could be killed.The gap between the numbers of the two sides became wider and wider, and even Sterling himself was slightly injured.At this moment, in the wilderness around Tsaritsyn, the sound of Ula suddenly came to mind.

Chapter 848 The Economic Situation After the War

The bayonets gleamed in the sun, and the gray-black red Luo army uniform looked like a call from the god of death to the exhausted Luocha army.At the most critical moment, Frunze's reinforcements finally arrived.For the same purpose, Frunze has always maintained the strongest reserve team.When they heard that Brusilov had rushed to Tsaritsyn, they turned and rushed back.

Although they did not have any vehicles or horses to assist them, the Red Luo Army arrived at the Tsaritsin battlefield in time by relying on their two feet to march day and night.When the soldiers of the Red Luo Army saw the dangerous battlefield after two days of rapid march, they immediately rushed to the battlefield with their rifles regardless of their physical fatigue, and caught the Luocha Army by surprise.When he saw the enemies surrounding him from all directions, Brusilov knew that his action had failed, and from then on he would never have the chance to help the Rakshasa Empire realize its dream of restoring the country.

Taking advantage of the fact that the encirclement circle of the Red Roman army had not yet been fully formed, Brusilov had to lead his cronies to escape along the path, throwing the large troops into the encirclement circle.The Raksha army who lost their command was even more miserable, but they had directly massacred the villages controlled by Hong Luo before, and they had already committed numerous crimes.These people are very clear that even after surrendering, they will not have any good results, so it is better to fight to the death.

When the last Rakshasa soldier fell, the huge casualties had already made Furongzhi feel unbearably distressed.More than 3 people were killed and more than 7 were injured, and Frunze's Red Army reserve team was almost exhausted.After the Western Special Zone has completely blocked the economy and commodities of the Red Raksha Country, there is a shortage of medicines in the Red Rakshasa, and [-]% of the wounded soldiers will not be able to survive and die.

This time, relying on Frunze's keen sense of smell and command art, coupled with Sterling's brutal determination, he finally defeated the Raksha army.The defense of Tsaritsin this time also became a turning point in the Luocha civil war. From this day on, the Luocha army was no longer able to launch large-scale offensive operations. less and less territory.

The battle in Luocha is in full swing, but Zhao Shouhong is planning his big money-making plan. A few years after the cassette recorder was launched, the world war began.After the outbreak of the war, everything made way for the war, so those luxury electronic products of the prosperous age began to make way for military products. Even the Zhongchuan Electric Factory of the Hanxing Group Company turned to assemble electronic tube transceivers and flashlights for the West Continent.

Zhao Shouhong had always disdained these non-technical things, so he left the production tasks in the factory to the biochemical engineers, and left them alone.Now that the war is over, the electrical appliance factory has returned to its original appearance.Transistor radios and cassette recorders began to sell well again. The difference is that most of the countries that consumed these electronic products at the beginning were countries in the Western Continent, but now it has become the White Eagle Country.

In a world war, it can be said that all countries participating in the war lost.The world war lasted five years and affected nearly 30 billion people in more than 20 countries around the world.The casualties of the entire war exceeded 5000 million, and the direct economic loss was more than 3000 billion yuan.The loss of war funds is equivalent to ten times the sum of all war expenditures in the world over the past 100 years.

Before the war, the White Eagle Kingdom still owed the Saar Empire more than 4 million Saar pounds in foreign debts. By the end of the war, the Saar Empire had already owed the White Eagle Kingdom 4000 million Saar pounds.However, this is not the worst result. During the war, the gold reserves of the Saar Empire dropped by as much as [-] to [-] million Saar pounds. The status has seriously declined.

During the war, more than 900 million tons of Saar merchant ships were sunk, which brought huge losses to the domestic ocean-going trade industry.As an island country, the loss of ocean trade means the loss of the national economy. By 1920, its domestic light industry output value was significantly reduced by 20% compared with before the war, and its heavy industry dropped by [-]%.More than [-] jobs were lost across the country, and average national wealth fell by thirty percent.

The loss of the Saar Empire was not the greatest. Throughout the course of the World War, the main battlefield was in the territory of Gaul.The Teutonic state once occupied four-fifths of the Gaul state's territory, causing its economy to suffer huge losses.The destruction of the Teutons almost destroyed the economic system of Gaul, and the direct economic loss exceeded 600 billion yuan.

The huge war casualties almost wiped out a whole generation of young people in the Gaul Kingdom. Among the war casualties, [-]% of the losses came from the Gaul Kingdom, which left a shortage of young people in the country after the war.The loss of labor force and the destruction of the industrial system made the economy of the entire Gaul country extremely bad.Even food and coal are difficult to supply in time. If it weren't for the deep foundation, the national government would have been overthrown long ago.

The victorious country that lost the most should be the Roman state. The Roman army, which was basically responsible for the jokes during the war, had no combat effectiveness. Even the admittedly weak Austro-Hungarian army was able to invade the Roman state with such force that it almost lost its capital.

This modern country, which has just been unified for less than 30 years, has been full of political compromise and deceit in its unification process, which is inherently insufficient.The unified Roman state failed to complete domestic economic integration, and its politics was also in turmoil. Under such circumstances, joining the world war can only be said to be greedy for profit.

Such a country with no background, after suffering a huge loss, does not have to think about it like the Gaul country.The post-war economic collapse made the domestic political situation turbulent. In the hotbed of the economic crisis, a Sithist group called the Sith Party was formally established. Its leader was Melini, who later controlled the Roman state.

Compared with the several victorious countries, the turmoil in the Teutonic state is only more serious.The bankruptcy of the economy after the war, the almost evacuation of industrial facilities, and the huge war reparations made the country overwhelmed.The economic policy introduced by the government has become a dead letter because there is no financial support, and the country cannot even pay the salaries of civil servants.Even the money to buy office paper needs to go to major factories for alms, which shows the degree of poverty.

Under such severe circumstances, the new economic crisis in the Western Continent is almost a foregone conclusion, but this does not affect the sales of electrical appliances in the Western Special Zone.

The three countries that gained the most in the war were White Eagle, Hualan, and Wa. Among them, the total profit of White Eagle was more than 400 billion White Eagle, Hualan was close to 200 billion, and the least Wa was more than 70 billion. credited.

Chapter 849 Economic Transformation

The country is financially rich, and the private sector also has a lot of wealthy funds, which are all potential users for electrical appliances.Relying on the extremely wide coverage of the Nakagawa Radio Station, the lightweight radios of the Western Special Zone have been sold again in these countries and have become a hot product.Cassette recorders also began to enter the homes of ordinary people, and became the first choice of many middle-class families in the White Eagle Country and the Wa Country.

The big sales of electrical products have made Hanxing Group a fortune, and made electrical appliances the largest source of income in the Western Special Zone besides medicines.With a lot of funds in his hands, Zhao Shouhong was able to purchase a large number of military supplies produced by factories and turn them to support the battle between Siman and the Raksha Empire.With this buffer period, various industries in the Western Special Zone began to transform towards civilian use.

However, this is the only case of using government funds for transformation, and other countries are not so lucky.Because Japan just closed the long-standing financial deficit, the government hastily started the construction of the Nagato battleship. As a result, in the country's economic transformation, major companies did not receive support from the government.

The domestic industry is like a Mercedes-Benz train, which wants to slow down and turn but has no brakes. As a result, a large backlog of domestic military supplies has been caused, and major enterprises have been injured a lot.The only one that has not been affected is the Yamada consortium, which has been producing civilian products. Although they made the least profit in the war, they have successfully avoided the problem of insufficient liquidity caused by blind expansion of production and excessive military projects.

When several other chaebols turned to the government for help, hoping to sell military supplies to the country, the Yamada consortium suddenly announced the acquisition of three large shipyards in Wugang, and began to design and build a new generation of ocean-going cargo ships for their consortium.After world peace, the Yamada consortium will be involved in shipbuilding and ocean trade.

Compared with the inexperienced Japanese government, the White Eagle government is obviously much more experienced.After discovering that the country had a tendency to overheat its production expansion, the White Eagle Country issued an urgent mobilization order for military conversion to civilians.The state provides incentives and support funds to help major enterprises produce military products for civilian use.

At the same time, the government of the White Eagle Country is negotiating with countries in the Western Continent to provide loans to countries to restore their economies, but the prerequisite is to give priority to purchasing products from the White Eagle Country.In this way, the White Eagle Nation used funds to pave the way, transferring its overproduction to the Western Continent, allowing the powers of the Western Continent to obtain scarce supplies and at the same time release excess productivity, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The world economy is struggling to advance in the economic crisis of post-war reconstruction, which has caused the domestic economy of Hualan, which has always been in an unprotected state, to suffer a severe winter.Of course, the Hualan domestic economy refers to other regions except the Western Special Zone.

During the world war, because of the shortage of products worldwide, most of the mainland businessmen invested in industry and commerce.Especially for those factories that produce light industrial products, the investment is small and the construction is fast. As long as they are put into production, they can generate a lot of benefits, which makes domestic businessmen flock to them.However, when the war ended and the productive forces of various countries were released, this situation began to reverse unexpectedly.

The dumping of products from various countries, especially the sales system in the Western Special Zone, which can bypass tariffs, dumped a large number of products to various places in Hualan, causing those businessmen with little technical strength to go bankrupt one after another.Coupled with the turmoil in the country, the warlords plundered and exploited places desperately, making the construction of factories an unprofitable and even dangerous industry.

In this case, a large number of mainland businessmen defected to the Western Special Zone.After coming to the special zone, the preferential loans granted by the banks, the relaxed investment environment, stable local security and transparent taxation system, coupled with the endless support policies, made all businessmen feel excited.

As long as you have an idea in your heart and are willing to work hard, there are unlimited possibilities in the special zone.After some bold businessmen entered the Special Zone, they quickly spread their experience to their friends through letters, driving more people to defect to the Special Zone.

The review of domestic entry is relatively loose, which makes most of Hualan's industrial and commercial people and various talents begin to gather towards the Western Special Zone.The intensification of this situation has exacerbated the fluctuations in the domestic economy. In the endless wars, the people are in dire straits.

The economies of various places went bankrupt one after another, and merchants fled one after another. The warlords once again turned their attention to raising funds for farmers with meager income.The domestic economy has become a vicious circle, and the society has become more turbulent.The plight of the people led many people of insight to look for a new way to save the country, a way other than Sun Wenhai and Yuan Wei.

After the establishment of the Red Rakshasa Kingdom, especially the situation in which they fought so many victories that the Rakshasa Empire was almost powerless to fight back, it attracted the attention of many people.Li Zhao, who soon lived in Beihua City, initiated the establishment of the first utopian theory research society in Hualan Kingdom, which was used to study the utopian philosophy advocated by the Budang Party.This forward-looking research meeting soon attracted the attention of many elites, and Deng Zhongxia, Luo Zhanglong, Liu Renjing, Gao Junyu, Zhang Tao and others joined it one after another.

Almost at the same time, Chen Qingtong, who once organized a parade in Guanghai City and had a relationship with Zhao Shouhong, also initiated a similar organization in Nanhua City.The two utopian groups, one in the south and one in the north, opened the prelude to the study of utopianism in Hualan.

For the Red Raksha State, which has always regarded the Western Special Zone as its greatest enemy, the germination of utopianism in Hualan is a good thing they can't wait for.In their view, the germination of this kind of thinking is a natural tool to deal with the Western Special Zone.For the importance attached to Hualan Kingdom, Bunin appointed his confidant Weijingski to come to China.

Weijingski knew Bunin's thoughts, and he was very polite to the utopians in Hualan Kingdom.Soon he met Li Zhao and Chen Qingtong in Beihua City and Nanhua City respectively, and conducted in-depth research with them. Finally, he invited them to join the third among the international.

Regarding the establishment of the utopianist group in Hualan Kingdom, Zhao Shouhong has always been on the sidelines.He knew that this was the foundation of the future Hualan Federation and the first step towards the prosperity of the Hualan Kingdom.Although it is still very weak and unconfident, even under the control of the Red Raksha State for a period of time, its flaws are not concealed.

The foundation of the country he was in in his previous life was itself based on the development and growth of this political party.If this party was wiped out in the bud, Zhao Shouhong didn't know whether he would still exist, so he decided to wait and see.While focusing on monitoring, it does not hinder his normal historical development.

8 Chapter Fifty

The Hualan Commune Party is still in its infancy and has almost no impact on history, and only latecomers like Zhao Shouhong will pay attention to it.Now Hualan has become one of the hot spots in the world, and no one cares about the changes in the minds of the people at the bottom.

In May, the Nanyuan War suddenly broke out, and the people of Nanyuan Province launched a vigorous campaign to expel the warlords.Nanyuan people have always been united and not afraid of violence. With the positive response of the people of the whole province, Zhang Jingyao, a warlord belonging to the Anhui faction, was expelled from Nanyuan, and his brother Zhang Jingtang was killed.
