Battle of the Third Reich

Vol 5 Chapter 500: Cooperation

"Everyone of you, everyone pays attention to it." The major armed SS in the field gray field uniform stood on a mound and shouted loudly in the Mandarin with a strong taste of Jiaodong.

"All I have is the most advanced grenade in Germany." The captain raised his right hand and showed the long-handled grenade in his hand.

"Now the squad leader of each class has got a sample, and you can pass it down to the others in the class for a look." The captain lowered his hand and gestured to the captains sitting in the front row.

"Look at it a little bit, and pass it to the next one after reading it."

"The second platoon leader, pay attention to discipline."

"Wait a few of you to play later, quickly pass down." Several captains quickly stood up from the ground to maintain order in their teams.

"Charge! Go forward, go forward! Let me all run!" a sergeant shouted loudly, and a captain was carrying an iron horn to translate simultaneously.

In front of him, there was a whole team of soldiers wearing German gray field uniforms, wearing a full set of y-shaped leather outfits, wearing German M40 helmets, a kettle, a dry food bag, a gas mask jar, and a straight handle infantry spade. Armed with a standard 98k rifle, he panted toward a hill covered with tall thatched grass.

These people have been training in the sun for most of the day, but no one has complained because of this. The soldiers' faces are covered with sweat and mud, but they cannot cover the young oriental faces.

"Your mission is to suppress the enemy's infantry firepower. I know that most of you have never seen the real battlefield, but it does not matter, as long as you pay attention to my lectures, understand the contents of the book, and strictly follow the operational rules. The content and actions, then in my opinion, recruits and veterans are not much different." The army lieutenant, holding an mg34 machine gun, spoke in English to the young machine gunner sitting around him.

"Not one for you, major! I'm talking about all of you. The things you learned before are all rubbish. This thing is simply a pile of waste paper and should be thrown into the toilet." The German army colonel used a whip He pulled the podium fiercely and flicked the scraps of the infantry training textbook compiled by the National Defense University on the table in the 22nd year of the Republic of China.

"You are now facing an armed to the teeth...no! It should be a modern army armed to the spirit. As far as I know, your enemies, the tactics they use, are no more than those written in this rubbish. What is clever. But why do you still fail one after another! This is also surprising to me. Now you can sit down, Major, let us explore this answer together." The colonel clamped the whip under his armpit, facing the quilt The scolding dog **** officer of the state government waved his hand.

"Colonel Gao Nifu is a very good tactician, it seems he likes these new students very much." Blumberg nodded with satisfaction, wandering away from the window of the tent.

The German Marshal seemed to be in a good mood. With his hands behind his back, he tapped the palm of his hand with the Marshal's slightly stick, striding briskly under his feet, and hummed a Prussian march in his mouth.

The cooperation agreement between Germany and the State Government has generally been signed, and the rest are some specific details. This does not need to be concerned by senior officials at his level.

This marshal and the German head of state are of the same character, and both belong to the ant legs. Blumberg only stayed in Chongqing for two weeks. Apart from the time of meeting guests and talks, he froze all around the mountain town.

The German arms sales plan is very fair and hardly sees any profit, which moved Jiang Zhongzheng very much. At the banquet after the signing of the contract, the leader was in tears in his eyes when he was excited, and raised his wine glass to toast the health of the German head of state. He also announced loudly that the state government will be a friend of the German Empire forever.

Out of the idea of ​​surrendering to Li, Blumberg also immediately announced that the Third Reich would give away a chemical plant to the state government as a proof of the friendship between the two countries. This is not the marshal's demeanor in a generous country. This is indeed the meaning in Germany. Fabiben claims that the raw materials of finished products after primary processing are more economical in transportation and storage.

However, it is rumored that the transaction also carried the opinion of the German head of state, and he seems to have some personal plans for this.

Chongqing has shown an amazing efficiency in this matter. Before Blumberg left Chongqing, the site has been explored and a delicate map has been drawn. The address is set near Chengdu. It is said that even the land has been approved. It seems that the Chinese Minister of Finance attaches great importance to this matter.

But regardless of him, Blumberg only needs to complete his task, and other problems upset more professional people.

Originally according to the domestic plan, after the end of the visit to China, the mission will turn to Japan for a two-week state visit to the Japanese government. However, in order to avoid wrong associations in the Chinese media and to take care of Jiang Zhongzheng's face, the German mission did not go directly from Chongqing to the Japanese occupied area, but returned to French Indochina on the same path.

Blumberg communicated with Jiang Zhongzheng in advance. The leader did not care very much at the time, and said that he could understand the arrangements of the German government. After all, this is normal international exchanges, and the government has no position to interfere. The Marshal did not express his heartfelt thanks to him for concealing this incident, and believed that no matter what happened, the friendship between the two countries would not be affected in any way.

Obviously, the marshal's advance notice made him feel that he was respected by the other party, and this leader's vanity was slightly satisfied.

What followed was the full cooperation of the government with the agreement between the two countries. From Blumberg's point of view, the country had almost spared no effort in fulfilling the contractual goals.

The people of the three provinces of Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan were mobilized again under the banner of "All for the Great Cause of the War of Resistance". Whether it is the Yunnan-Burma Highway or the Yunnan-Vietnam Highway, all of them need to be fully renovated and expanded, and the original Yunnan-Vietnam Railway also needs to add two double lines on the original basis.

This is a huge project, but this time the state government is finally rich, and it is no longer necessary to let the people serve for the job (the Republic of China also retained the servant system in the southwest at that time, which is called the Zhuangding, such as the construction of the Yunnan-Burma road. At the same time, the tools provided by the people have no salary, which is used to offset the hard labor and poll tax of the year.).

Several banks in France and the United Kingdom agreed to provide low-interest loans for these projects. Jiang Zhongzheng thought that these foreigners were fooling him. As a result, HSBC transferred the first batch of funds of 20 million the next day.

In the eyes of Britain and France, this is a good business, they urgently need to expand overseas markets to make up for domestic losses. The collateral for the loan is the mineral exploration and mining rights in the area controlled by the State Government, and the road operation rights ranging from ten to twenty years. The old unequal treaty, but the State Government has long been accustomed to this, anyway, lice No more itching, more debt, no worries, no matter how you can borrow foreign debts at this time, it is also a stimulant for the government, so that the people have added a confidence to win the war.

In this matter, even those left-wing literati who have always been dissatisfied with the state government still have tacit choices to remain silent. This is a major event related to the survival of the nation. At this time, whoever drags the state government behind, it is The ancient sinner of the Chinese nation.

At this time, few people know that the State Government and Germany have also signed a secret agreement in private. The German Wehrmacht will train an elite army in Myanmar and French Indochina. The number is temporarily rated at 50,000, and it is composed of two infantry divisions plus a hybrid brigade.

The German requirement is that all officers and soldiers must pass the test of the German Wehrmacht, at least a junior high school education, a sergeant must be at least a high school graduate, and an officer must be a graduate of a military school. Those with experience in studying abroad will have priority.

This is a piece of pie that has fallen from the sky. After seeing the majesty of the armed guard brigade, Jiang Zhongzheng always wanted an elite force like that. But he is also very clear that the generals of his group have a limited level of realism, and they will at most train you a Northern Army.

Now the Germans have agreed to use German officials to help him train a modern German military equipment and use a modern army of German tactics. What makes Jiang Zhongzheng even more excited is that after the Germans declare that they will not interfere in this training Command of the troops.

Of course it is necessary to sign. It is a fool not to sign such a good condition. Even the lady who does not have a good impression on the Germans also jumped to express their support. If the Germans did not play tricks, this force might be the pillar of the stability of the Jiang family. .

In order to maintain confidentiality, recruiting was not conducted publicly in the society, but was conducted among various middle schools in the name of recruiting special soldiers. This army has already been internalized by Jiang Zhongzheng as his imperial forest army, and of course the selection of troops must be improved.

All previous graduates are basically social people, Jiang Zhongzheng believes that it is not as simple as the school students, so basically the goal is set to the middle school students who are studying.

But a few days later the situation changed, and the news of recruiting student soldiers quickly spread to colleges and universities around Chongqing. Because the requirements are set very high, the results have caused a lot of associations among college students. This is obviously not to recruit ordinary big-headed soldiers, at least it can be determined not to recruit cannon fodder. So it attracted a lot of progressive students who hated the country, hated their homes, and resolutely abandoned their studies and went to the recruiting office to register.

Soon the first batch of 3,000 soldiers were all full, and these recruits were sent to the train to transport labor. At the same time, on the outskirts of Tokyo in French Indochina, a huge barracks is under construction, and the prestigious [Youth Army] will soon be on the stage of history for the first time.
