"Okay, I'll just stay for a while and try." After thinking for a while, Trotsky finally agreed.Zhao Shouhong was secretly happy, as long as Trotsky was willing to stay, there would be a great chance of playing a role in the future.At least after there are no constraints, Sterling's desire for power will be even greater. Once his cruel methods are used in government operations, social unrest will be inevitable.When the time comes to take advantage of the opportunity to overthrow Sterling, a vicious guy, and push the kinder Trotsky to the fore, the Red Alliance will naturally be grateful to the Hualan Kingdom. At least one strategic buffer zone with the Teutonic Kingdom is very necessary.

After successfully rescuing Trotsky, the Western Special Administrative Region regained its calm, and the government re-focused on economic construction, as if this incident had never happened, but all the things related to the mission were archived for future use. needs.

Sterling was relieved to see that the Western Special Administrative Region was relatively calm, and Trotsky's arrival did not cause any waves of opposition to the Red Federation.Although anyone with a discerning eye could see that the incident this time was caused by the Western Special Zone, the Red United Kingdom did not grasp any clues after all.What's more, it is an indisputable fact that the Western Special Administrative Region is stronger than the Red United States. Once troubles arise, it will be harmful rather than beneficial to the country's development.Since the other party calmed down, the Red United Kingdom was also happy to pretend to be stupid. Of course, after Trotsky left, it also saved Sterling a lot of time, and he quickly took control of the entire country.

The new Five Marshals of the Red Alliance were soon announced. Because of Frunze's unexpected death, Voroshilov was listed on the list and indirectly consolidated Sterling's position.After obtaining the rank of Marshal, Voroshilov seemed complacent, and after the military gained a solid position, his right to speak was also greatly strengthened. Sterling began to deal with his remaining soldiers step by step. political enemies.

Although the economy is still developing at a high speed and the army is gradually becoming stronger, the entire Red Federation has undercurrents surging, and the ideas brewing in Sterling's mind are gradually taking shape.Fortunately, only the Red United Nations is about to appear. This poses no threat to the Western Special Zone. In fact, no country will pay attention to it. After all, the Red United Nations is not yet powerful enough to influence the world, and developing its own economy is the mainstream of the world today.

All countries are working hard to develop their national economies. Through the Rothschild family and the Hollywood consortium, the products of the Western Region are sold all over the world.With the help of strong sales capabilities, the Western Special Zone is also growing stronger and stronger, and its economic strength soon reached one-fifth of that of the White Eagle Country, becoming the invisible second economic power in the world.

After the Great War, the main theme of the world is peace, and all countries are enjoying prosperity day by day. The world economic situation is very good. Even the impoverished Red Federation country has begun to use the power of the whole country to improve its strength and quickly transform from an agricultural country to an industrial country.Many capitalists and bankers have expressed that the eternal prosperity of capitalism has arrived, the world will achieve eternal peace and prosperity, and the capitalist system will last forever.However, they don't know that the seeds of economic crisis are growing behind the prosperity. Although it will take several years before the outbreak, the situation is irreversible.

In the blink of an eye, two years have passed. This is the two years of peaceful development of the entire world, and even local wars have not occurred anywhere in the world.Even the parties in the civil war in Hualan have stopped, they are accumulating strength, ready for a new struggle at any time.

In the past two years, Zhao Shouhong has been immersing himself in improving his CNC machine tools.Although today's CNC machine tools are still very primitive, their precision and efficiency are much higher than ordinary machine tools.With the improvement of processing precision in the Western Special Zone, the quality of products is rising steadily, and the speed of various technological developments is also accelerating.

After unremitting research by scientific researchers, the material of semiconductor components in the Western Special Zone has changed from germanium to silicon.This kind of raw material has better performance and is easier to use industrial methods, which makes it possible for the electronics industry in the Western Special Zone to continue to expand its production.Because the production of silicon materials is more difficult, it also makes it more difficult for scientific researchers in the Western Continent to crack the technology of the electronic industry in the Western Special Zone.

The improvement of the electronics industry is naturally more than that. Due to the deepening of laser research, the most primitive laser etching machine finally appeared. At that time, the Western District finally produced transistor components with a diameter of [-] microns.

This dust-like component may seem inconspicuous, but it is at the forefront of the world's technological development.With the help of a high-power microscope, the new ultra-large-scale integrated circuit was re-optimized by the researchers, and soon the chip named [-], which was a milestone for later generations, was born in the precision instrument workshop of Zhongchuan Electric Factory.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The new [-] chip integrates [-] transistors, has a maximum frequency of [-] MHz, and uses a [-]-bit data bus and a [-]-bit address bus.Therefore, the processing speed of the processor has been increased from [-] kHz to [-] MHz in one fell swoop, and such a breakthrough is almost a triple jump.

Relying on the powerful computing capability of the [-] chip, a new supercomputer was designed. This kind of computing artifact, which is still in the imagination of scientists from various countries, soon became the standard configuration of the Western Special Zone.

Supercomputers can speed up research, greatly promote scientific research data calculations and many information tasks, and may even promote the emergence of the third industrial revolution. Zhao Shouhong attaches great importance to this.With the solidarity and cooperation of all the electronic and electrical factories in the entire special zone, the Galaxy supercomputer was successfully developed. Zhao Shouhong manufactured six of this supercomputer with a floating-point calculation speed of [-] million times per second.

After graduating from university, Zhou Ren, who gradually emerged, established a materials research institute in Ningyuan Hall, which was composed entirely of Hualan people.This is the research institute that Zhao Shouhong attaches the most importance to. It has not only received the full cooperation of various metal smelters in the Ningyuan Department, but has also been given the most important authority for new scientific research equipment.Any new scientific research equipment, this institute can get priority, and the Galaxy computer is no exception.

With the same authority as the Materials Research Institute, there is also the Electrical and Electronic Research Institute established in the Yazhou Electric Appliance Factory, which is also the new home of a Galaxy computer.

In addition to these two most important research institutes, after the aliens were quarantined, two large comprehensive research institutes secretly established near Batang were also allocated one.The fifth computer was temporarily placed in a military base near Lanzhou. Zhao Shouhong planned to establish a new research institute in Lop Nur, an inaccessible place, where Hualan State's own nuclear industry research project would begin.

Because people in such an area are easy to control, in addition to a large number of Hualan staff, many foreign nuclear scientists will also go there, including the Curies.In the future, this fifth supercomputer will be used as the main computer of the Lop Nur Nuclear Research Base.

The location of the last computer was quite unexpected. It was placed in the basement of Wan's Animation Film Company in Guanghai City.Several research institutes under the Guangming Group Company located in Guanghai City, including important naval research institutes such as naval guns, ship design, and naval engines, did not get the first batch of supercomputers, but let a small animation The company got it, which puzzled many executives.

In fact, everyone is not clear that Zhao Shouhong's original intention to develop a supercomputer is to produce future animated films.In this era when technology is still relatively backward, the methods of cultural propaganda are very limited, and most countries rely on movies to expand their own ideology.However, as a costly means of publicity, movies are subject to many constraints in terms of shooting.

For example, Zhao Shouhong used two divisions, more than 30 tanks, and millions of Chinese dollars to shoot two war films that reflected the arduous process of starting a business in the Western Special Zone.Once these two films were released, they were well received by countries all over the world. Everyone was shocked by the intense war scenes, but everyone knew that such scenes cost a lot.Except for Zhao Shouhong who used government power to make movies, no film company in the world could bear the high cost.

Even so, Zhao Shouhong was still very dissatisfied with the flawed special effects and the war scenes that were not large enough.In order to shoot good enough scenes and realistic special effects, the computing power of the computer must be increased by at least ten times.Compared with movies, the production difficulty of animation is much lower, and the cost is also more cost-effective.

In this day and age, the only difficulty in the production of cartoons is that the cycle is too long and the workload of painting is too great.After owning a supercomputer, such problems can be easily solved. Artists only need to finalize the draft and draw characters in different scenes. As for the actions of cartoon characters, the computer will complete them.

Originally, a simple 20-second animation of walking with swinging arms required artists to draw more than 500 pictures, and even the fastest person would have to draw more than half a year.But on the software of the supercomputer, it only needs to input the initial movement and the ending movement of the arm swing, and the computer can complete the calculation and the whole process can be repeated infinitely.A single person needs more than half a year to complete the work. He only needs to draw three pictures and input them into the computer, and it takes 1 minute to complete. This kind of work efficiency is absolutely overwhelming animation companies all over the world.

With the help of this supercomputer, Wan's Animation Film Company was able to draw a large number of cartoons, and soon achieved success on TV.When various TV stations or film companies that tested the water began to shoot three-episode miniature TV series, Wan's Animation Film Company had already completed the 110-episode long-form animation series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Once this animation series appeared on the TV station, it immediately caused a sensation all over the world, and the broadcast of two episodes every day became the moment everyone was waiting for in front of the TV.For such a long continuous story, the plot is naturally much more delicate than that of a movie with a tense plot, which makes the audience hooked.

Because the various language channels of Zhongchuan TV are broadcast simultaneously, many people even stay by the TV all day in order to watch more, watching all the TV channels in various languages ​​whether they understand or not.The Three Kingdoms craze has become a popular fashion all over the world, and translations of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms have been released one after another, greatly enhancing the world influence of Hualan Kingdom's traditional culture.

Zhao Shouhong always believes that it is impossible for a company to support the entire sky, and it must form an industrial chain and scale to truly control an industry.Under his suggestion, in addition to starting the production of several series of cartoons, Wan's Animation Film Company also extended an olive branch to those small animation companies.

Because of the continuous prosperity of the animation industry, many people with painting skills have established their own companies.These companies are small in number, can only draw a few minutes of animation skits and take an extremely long time, but many of their ideas are remarkable.Wan's Animation Film Company approached these small companies and promised to help them quickly produce cartoons, regardless of length.Small companies finalize the work, and the completed cartoons are also signed by those small companies. Wan Shi helps them complete the production company of the entire cartoon, and takes [-]% of the net profit as compensation.

Although this kind of profit is drawn a lot, the animation production process is much easier, and the profit is still dozens of times higher than before, so various companies are very willing to cooperate.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

With this method, the utilization rate of the supercomputer is higher.Artists can devote more energy to artistic creation instead of repetitive painting work, so that excellent works emerge in endlessly.Hualanguo's cartoons have started the production method of the industrialized industrial chain. The animation industry has almost occupied [-]% of the world's share.

In addition to the cultural industry, the industrial development of the central and western special zones has also been very rapid in the past two years.Relying on the reception of the Ural steel industrial base of the Raksha Empire and the massive trade of the World War, the smelting industry in the Western Special Zone has embarked on a fast track. By the end of 1925, the annual steel production had reached nearly 3000 million tons, one tenth of which was It is a high-grade special steel, and some are even unique to the Western Special Zone.

With the support of the iron and steel industry, the machinery manufacturing and metal processing industries have developed greatly, driving the overall improvement of other manufacturing and light industries.The economy of the Western Special Zone is booming, but Zhao Shouhong is getting more and more leisurely.Relying on a complete system and a good officialdom, the Western Special Administrative Region government is extremely efficient, and Zhao Shouhong doesn't need to worry about it at all.

Except for some major events that required Zhao Shouhong to make decisions, he stayed in the general mansion most of the time, enjoying family happiness with his wife and children. After more than ten years of hard work, the middle-aged Zhao Shouhong was finally able to It's a little easier, but it's a pity that such a good day is destined to not last long.

This morning, Zhao Shouhong sat leisurely on a deck chair by the grass, watching his wife and children playing there.Tatiana's son, Zhao Hua, is over one year old, and now he is learning to walk staggeringly with the help of several maids. Shen Ruoxue encourages him with a smile.Olga and Xiao Cui sat not far away, holding a pair of daughters who were two months apart in their arms, and looked at Zhao Hua with envy on their faces.Their daughters are not yet a year old enough to learn to walk.

Looking at the harmonious scene of his wife and daughter, Zhao Shouhong was full of happiness in his heart.A guard came over and said in a low voice: "My lord, the chief of staff and the deputy chief are asking to see you."

Zhao Shouhong was taken aback when he heard the words. The chief of staff is naturally Jiang Fangzhen, and the deputy chief is Bai Chongxi. The two rarely come to the general's mansion on weekdays. It is obvious that they have important business to come together today.Zhao Shouhong quickly ordered someone to invite them to the living room, and then he stretched himself out of the recliner, and after greeting the girls, he walked slowly towards the living room.

As soon as Zhao Shouhong walked into the living room, Jiang Fangzhen and Bai Chongxi immediately stood up and saluted to show their respect for their superiors.Zhao Shouhong waved his hand and said, "Sit down quickly, you two are rare visitors, why do you have to come here in person today?"

Jiang Fangzhen smiled slightly at Zhao Shouhong, and said in a rather relaxed voice: "It's good news, Chairman, Yuedong has finally made a move."

"What? Yuedong started?" Zhao Shouhong's eyes lit up.Two years ago, they gave away a batch of weapons and ammunition for an excuse, in the hope that Sun Wenhai could start the Northern Expedition as soon as possible and disrupt the situation in the eastern part of Hualan.Unexpectedly, Sun Wenhai was so calm that he waited for two years before finally launching the Northern Expedition.

Zhao Shouhong suddenly stood up and said, "I think the staff headquarters should have a plan for this matter. Now that our goal has been achieved, it's time to start our plan."

Jiang Baili and Bai Chongxi looked at each other and said: "Our plan thinks that it is not appropriate to dispatch for the time being. We should wait until the two sides are fighting to a stalemate, and then we can find a reason to send troops. This is safer and easier to work."

Zhao Shouhong nodded: "This matter is up to your military to make up its own mind, and I will not object. Since you think it should be postponed, let's wait and see what changes Sun Wenhai can bring us. Surprise."

At this time, Sun Wenhai was standing on the podium in high spirits, speaking to tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army.His impassioned voice inspired everyone to fight for the country, eliminate the warlord forces and realize a real republic.The blue sky and white sun flags fluttered under the stage, and the officers and soldiers shouted slogans in unison. The scene was very spectacular.

After receiving the full support of the Red Alliance, Sun Wenhai's strength has grown unprecedentedly. Now the Cantonese Army has more than six armies in the main battle force, and there are also several security forces in the garrison area.In addition to the strength of the army, Marshal Bliuchel of the Red Alliance joined the National Revolutionary Government under the pseudonym Galen. He put forward many good opinions for Sun Wenhai, and soon became his right-hand man.

Under Galen's suggestion, Sun Wenhai resolutely decided to launch the Northern Expedition to defeat the immediate army in one fell swoop.The six armies with a total of 8 troops were divided into three groups and attacked to the north.Together with the army, there are [-] warships of the navy and several planes of the air force.

The momentum of the Northern Expeditionary Army was like a rainbow, and soon the direct troops in Kuaiji Province and Jiangzuo Province retreated steadily.At the critical moment, Lu Yongxiang, the governor of Jiangnan province, and Tang Shengzhi, a warlord of the Central Plains province, who belonged to the remnants of the Anhui faction, rose up one after another in response to the call of the Northern Expedition.Fortunately, the immediate response was timely, and Sun Chuanfang quickly overwhelmed Lu Yongxiang's troops across the Longjiang River, while Tang Shengzhi from the Central Plains Province was also held back by the warlord Xiao Yaonan.

Although the attack from both directions was disadvantageous, it was of great help to the momentum of the Northern Expeditionary Army.The National Revolutionary Government of Eastern Guangdong quickly recognized the identities of Tang Shengzhi and Lu Yongxiang's revolutionary army, and gave each of them an army establishment.

As early as two years ago, the second Zhili-Feng War broke out between the Zhili and the Fengli. Although the defeated Zhili still firmly controlled a large amount of land, its main force of 10 people was devastated. Mutiny, the momentum is not as good as before.In this case, the direct lineage faced a strong challenge from the south, and its combat effectiveness was naturally very problematic.At the critical moment, Wang Zhanyuan and Sun Chuanfang rushed to the front respectively to take charge of the troops to resist. However, the Northern Expeditionary Army's fighting spirit was as firm as a rainbow, and the attack was vigorous and impressive.The Northern Expedition army fought all the way to the edge of the Longjiang River, and the Zhi army barely blocked the opponent's attack.

Sun Chuanfang, who was stationed in Xuzhou, knew in his heart that if he could not defend the Longjiang line of defense, Xuzhou would be in danger, so he assembled a heavy army, hoping to stop the advance of the Northern Expeditionary Army.Wang Zhanyuan's form was not at all easier than Sun Chuanfang's. In addition to blocking the Northern Expeditionary Army from Jiangzuo Province, Tang Shengzhi, who protruded from Central Plains Province, was also a headache. Wang Zhanyuan had to face the dilemma of facing the enemy on both sides.Fortunately, because the Jiujiang area belonging to the Western Special Zone does not allow the troops of both sides to enter, Wang Zhanyuan's defense area in Jiangzuo Province is much narrower, and the defense area of ​​Sun Chuanfang and Wang Zhanyuan is also divided by Jiujiang as the boundary.

Chapter One Thousand and Eight Unclear Attitude

After the weather got warmer, the fighting between the two sides became more intense, but due to Zhang Zuolin's inaction, the Northern Expeditionary Army was unable to make progress for a long time.In fact, Zhang Zuolin cannot be blamed for this incident. The Northern Expeditionary Army's slogan of eliminating warlords and restoring the republic will naturally arouse people's imagination.

Zhang Zuolin is also a warlord, and after the victory of the Zhifeng War, he can be regarded as the largest warlord outside of the Western Special Zone. Facing the aggressive Northern Expeditionary Army, how could he be careless?After the Wan Zhi Department fell, the Northern Expeditionary Army pointed their guns at his Feng Department, wouldn't they be shooting themselves in the foot.

Zhang Zuolin remained calm, but some people couldn't bear it.Feng Yuxiang, the new warlord who gained control of Central South Province by virtue of his betrayal in the Zhifeng War, was originally a lord with a heart for the republic. Now that the two sides are in a stalemate, he will naturally stab the Zhili in the back.

Feng Yuxiang took the initiative to send troops, and Sun Liangcheng and Tong Linge each led a division out of Central South Province and directly attacked the hinterland of Jiangnan Province.Sun Liangcheng attacked Bozhou all the way, while Tong Linge led his troops to go straight to Suzhou. Feng Yuxiang personally commanded an army of [-] to support the two powerful subordinates.

What Feng Yuxiang didn't expect was that Cao Kun was by no means an idiot. He had already guarded against Feng Yuxiang's such a trick, so he had ample reserve team in the rear.After the Zhongnan Army suddenly sent troops to attack Jiangnan Province, the temporary chaos was quickly quelled, and the direct main force of more than three divisions blocked the opponent's attack route.At the same time, Cai Chengxun suddenly dispatched troops, leading an army of [-] from Qilu Province to invade Central South Province, intending to uproot Feng Yuxiang's forces.

Facing the sudden counterattack of the Zhili, Feng Yuxiang was shocked. He quickly led an army of [-] back to Central South Province to resist the opponent's attack.The Central South Army's attack on Jiangnan Province was also delayed due to insufficient troops. Sun Liangcheng and Tong Linge could only lead their own troops to fight fiercely with the Zhijun Army under the cities of Bozhou and Suzhou.
