Beiyang reactionaries

If not, Dai Kan would really have to guard against Yan Huiqing.But now, with a down-to-earth person like Yan Huiqing under his command, it is of great help to the work of the cabinet.

"Japan's ambitions for the Nanyang region are clearly revealed. Kitaichi's books were banned in Japan before and were destroyed several times. The Japanese government also banned Kitaichi from expressing his own words several times. But since Tanaka Yoshiichi reused Kitaichi Hui, after supporting Kita Ikki, Kita Ikki's ideas spread rapidly in Japan. Many of Tanaka Yoshiichi's practices now obviously have the style of Kita Ikki's previous advocacy. Kita Ikki's recent book, the public opinion is It is becoming more and more explicit. Especially his 'Asian Co-Prosperity' and 'White People and Yellow People Theory' blatantly express the view that Asia is Asia for Asians. This is the Nanyang territory that obviously takes a fancy to Britain, France, the United States and the Netherlands."

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded.

It is impossible for any country to suddenly go to war for no reason.If there is a war for no reason, then this country can only be said to be crazy.Such a country will never have a future.

All wars have a cause and effect.

There are certain signs before the war begins.Hitler launched the European War, which can be seen from the rise of the Nazi Party in Germany.The country needs to mobilize before going to war, and as soon as the country starts to mobilize, it will be seen.Now Japan is spreading the idea that Asia is the Asia of Asians, and there is even a "white man yellow man theory", stating that Asia is Asia of the yellow race.Obviously, it is aimed at Nanyang, which is doing public opinion propaganda.

"If a war breaks out in Europe, Japan will definitely not be able to bear it. If Japan also takes action, Europe and Southeast Asia will all be in chaos, and it will really be a world war."

Duan Xun has enough prestige.

When Duan Xun said that there would be a world war, several people immediately thought about that.Sometimes people are like that.When you think so, you can always find many reasons to confirm this fact.

That's it right now.

In fact, these people here know a lot about Hitler.Because China and Germany have cooperated a lot in recent years, the cooperation between the two sides became more frequent after Hitler came to power.Several people know that Hitler sent a large number of soldiers over for training.Therefore, several people judged that there would be problems in Europe, and war might break out.But few people dare not even think about the occurrence of a world war.

But now the thinking has completely changed.

Because Duan Xun thought that there would be a world war, several people could not help but follow Duan Xun's thinking.After they thought that a world war might happen, they thought carefully about what happened in the world, and they realized that a world war might really happen.

The more he said, the more dignified everyone's face became.

Because of the war of the century, what should China do?Every time a world war occurs, it is a re-division of world interests.What should China do?

"The plan needs to be changed according to the changing situation. Once a world war breaks out in a few years, if we are not prepared, we will be passive. On the contrary, if we are prepared, then we will be able to take the initiative. Therefore, today's meeting In this meeting, I just hope that we can make a decision. Make a general direction for the third five-year plan."

"It should be so."

Dai Kan nodded.

If, as Duan Xun judged, a world war breaks out, China must of course be prepared.Because China has the most historical problems left over.

To solve those problems, China also needs to take advantage of this opportunity.If the world situation is stable, many problems in China cannot be solved.Only when the world is in chaos can a post-rising country like China take advantage of the chaos.Therefore, China should hope that the world will be turbulent, and only turbulence will have opportunities.

Since it is judged that the world will be turbulent, China should of course make preparations in advance.

"Then let me tell you what I think."

Today's meeting is completely dominated by Duan Xun.Duan Xun said directly: "In the third five-year plan, I think there are two points that must be paid attention to. One is the military industry, and the third five-year plan must vigorously develop the military industry. Facing the possible world In the event of a major war, we must be prepared militarily. Therefore, military spending must increase in the Third Five-Year Plan, not only in the military industry, but also in the size of the army.”

"Prime Minister, do you want to expand the army?"

"Yes."

Wang Yongjiang's face was gloomy.

Wang Yongjiang has always been the most opposed to military expansion, and he is also a person who firmly holds that military spending should not exceed 30% of fiscal revenue.If it weren't for Wang Yongjiang's support, it would be difficult for China's military spending to remain within 30% for so many years.

"Under the current situation, our army is sufficient. But if something big happens in the future, our army is far from enough. Given the vastness of our country, the army alone should have 300 million people. .”

"Prime Minister, how much do you need to increase your military spending when you expand your military like this?"

"10%. 10% of revenue."

Wang Yongjiang calculated silently.

After the Second Five-Year Plan, the currency was released, and the result was that China's economy prospered.China's fiscal revenue has also increased rapidly, and of course it is also the result of the depreciation of the currency.

During the five-year period of the Second Five-Year Plan, China's fiscal revenue has doubled, and the current fiscal revenue has exceeded 200 billion yuan.If the military spending is increased by 10%, that is an increase of 20 billion military spending.Now China's military expenditure is already very high. If it increases by another 20 billion, China's military expenditure will be number one in the world.

But Wang Yongjiang could not object.

Because Wang Yongjiang has seen that Duan Xun is bound to win.Otherwise, this meeting would not be held to discuss the third five-year plan.The previous five-year plan only determined the general direction.The rest of the details were worked out by Wang Yongjiang and the ministries below.This is the first time that Duan Xun has said more specific things before making a plan.

"The second is transportation. Once something happens and we are involved in a war, transportation will be the most important thing at that time. In war, it is logistics. The stronger the logistics capability, the stronger the army's combat effectiveness. Therefore, the army The logistics supply capability of a country is the most direct reflection of the combat effectiveness of a country's army. Especially the traffic conditions in the border areas of our country are not good. If anything happens, if we don't have time to reinforce or supply logistics materials, it will drag down our frontline Therefore, in the third five-year plan, domestic transportation must be emphasized. Railway, highway, and airport projects must be launched. All of our border areas must have sufficient logistics supply capabilities. Premier Dai, Wang Prime Minister, what do you two think?"

Although it is one positive and six negative.

But the portion size is not the same.Needless to say, Duan Xun, Dai Kan is the first deputy prime minister, and Dai Kan has been the second in command of Duan Xun's camp since Duan Xun served as the Southwest Frontier Defense Supervisor in the southwest.And Wang Yongjiang has followed Duan Xun since Duan Xun was in Western Henan, and has been in charge of Duan Xun's money bag.

The opinions of both of them matter.

In other words, as long as the two of them agree, there will be no problem with the prime minister's office meeting.

"Be prepared. Facing the complicated situation in the future, it is always a good thing to strengthen our country's military strength. No matter what happens at that time, with a strong army, we will be able to deal with it calmly."

Dai Kan nodded in agreement first.

Duan Xun looked at Wang Yongjiang.Wang Yongjiang was dissatisfied in his heart.Because China's current development situation is very good, as long as the third five-year plan is completed, China's industry will be able to develop by leaps and bounds.

Moreover, when industry develops to a certain extent, it can also counter-supplement agriculture.At that time, it can also promote rural development.Rural development will further drive the growth of the Chinese market.

All good things.

But Duan Xun seems to have made up his mind.Wang Yongjiang must be able to drive China's economic development without opposing Duan Xun.Therefore, he said: "The development of the military industry and the construction of infrastructure can both drive economic development. However, we need to plan carefully how to balance the relationship between them."

"That's good."

This is power.

A "semi-dictatorial" leader like Duan Xun has such advantages in the direction of some major events.Of course there are advantages and disadvantages.

If Duan Xun's judgment is correct, the whole country will benefit.But if Duan Xun makes a mistake in his judgment, the whole country will have to pay for Duan Xun's mistake.

"Our third five-year plan will be formulated according to the general direction I mentioned."

Duan Xun decided on the general direction.

But for the specific third five-year plan, Dai Kan and Wang Yongjiang still need to work out the details.But at this time, Duan Xun began to think about the development of the army.

Because the plan made by Dai Kan and Wang Yongjiang will not involve the military department.At most, they are formulating how many resources will be given to the military department.As for how to use these resources, it needs to be determined by the Ministry of Military Affairs.

Duan Xun served as the Minister of Military Affairs, which has always been a department outside the cabinet.Although the Ministry of Military Affairs is subordinate to the cabinet, it is also a department of the cabinet.But the cabinet bosses never interfere with the affairs of the military department.

Duan Xun, as the Minister of Military Affairs, of course has to deploy in advance.

"Director Shen (Shen Honglie), how is your aircraft carrier fleet doing?"

"Prime Minister, we have been intensively practicing. It's just that everyone has never used an aircraft carrier, and there is not much experience to learn from. But we have been practicing hard. We also organize military officers to discuss how to use the aircraft carrier fleet."
