Throughout history, wars have fought against logistics and technology, especially since modern times, this trend has become more and more obvious.

Why did China suffer from bullying from the great powers after the late Qing Dynasty not because of lack of blood, brave soldiers, nor lack of generals who can conquer and fight, but because of the overall backwardness of the entire social system and science and technology, it was caused by all this.

The great powers used their superiority to industrialization to reduce the dimensionality of dimensionality attacks all backward farming and nomadic countries, and developed industrial countries, and their confidence in launching wars was extraordinary.

Of course, the knowledgeable people in China have never stopped pursuing the country's prosperity and the people's strength. Unfortunately, everyone, including those great people, is still in the process of exploring.

The former policy of the Qing Dynasty's close-off policy of the country that had long fallen was disastrous to the whole of China. The main reason why the government retreated steadily in the early days of the War of Resistance was that logistics and equipment were the problems.

Logistics can be said to have played a decisive role in the ongoing war. Just like Japan, which is arrogant and unpredictable on the Chinese battlefield, faces serious logistical problems. For example, the tanks they made can only be used as armored vehicles in World War II.

One of the reasons is that they are an island country, and their national defense is more important in the expansion of the navy. As we all know, battleships are all big guys with tens of thousands of tons, and one combat preparation or training is enough for an armored division to fight for several months.

Although the Japanese army's equipment was not advanced among the great powers, it was not easy to completely defeat the Japanese army. The reason was that at this time, the Chinese soldiers were not as good as Japan in terms of training, supply and equipment. Even with Wu Siren's iron-blooded personality, they could only helplessly try it.

During World War II, the red polar bears that fought against German invasion in the early days were filled with human lives, just like the Chinese invasion in Japan, basically relying on their flesh and blood to block the invaders' footsteps.

The Red Polar Bear could not defeat Germany in the early days. The powerful new weapons of the German army occupied the main factor, and coupled with the "blitzkrieg" that created the historical changes in the war, the madman named Xiaowang, Wu Siren's "picking up rags" behavior was not only not disgusted with Wu Siren's behavior, but also some fueled the fire. After all, what Germany lacked the most now is resources.

"Commander, is it a bit too aggressive to mobilize so much manpower and material resources?"

Even Qiu Yu'an, who was always brave, was frightened by his "big move" at this strategic meeting chaired by Wu Siren.

It has come early March, and in another half a month, the defense battle of Yuzhang will begin, so Wu Siren issued a comprehensive mobilization order.

"Yes, Commander, we have sent 80% of our troops for this raid. No matter what the result is, we will definitely be the target of public criticism after the war."

A conservative Fang Zishan said worriedly that he was afraid that the Tax Police Corps would fall into a desperate situation.

"Everyone!" Wu Siren pointed to an area on the map and emphasized: "I never fight a war of no confidence. In addition to restraining the enemy's troops and reducing pressure for the mountain city on the front battlefield, it also has the reasons for opening up this transportation line. As for whether Japan will turn the guns and aim the main attack direction at Yuzhou after the war, I think this may be slim."

Wu Siren said a lot without saying it clearly. Japan is now determined to defeat the main force of the National Government and force the Shancheng side to surrender. Before this goal is achieved, it will not put a large number of troops into other battlefields. Moreover, Japan is about to conduct an offensive test of "going north" and there is no way to send the main force to attack Yuzhou.

"Commander, you are almost treacherously in order to open up Haizhou this time. Are you going to transport a lot of supplies?"

Hu Boyu is worthy of being called a "fox" by Wu Siren, and has been thought of from this battle concept to a deeper level.

When the others at the meeting heard this, except for Chief of Staff Chen Ziliang, others like Qiu Yu'an, Fang Zishan, Sun Liren and others all had their eyes lit up.

Wu Siren coughed lightly and began to explain: "We all know that Japan is an island country with scarce supplies, especially steel and oil. Since the late Qing Dynasty, Japan has sent many experts to us to find minerals. Unfortunately, we are an oil-poor country, and the quality of iron ore is not high. We cannot achieve our goals through war and fight, so under this circumstance, the Japanese can only focus on these places."

Wu Siren pointed to Australia, the Philippines, Indonesia and other places on the map and tapped hard a few times.

"Commander, what do you mean is that Japan wants to use troops in Southeast Asia? They are not so bold! This is all the spheres of influence of Britain, France, the United States and other countries. Are they crazy?"

Sun Liren stared at her eyes and said in disbelief. In his opinion, taking the initiative to challenge the giant American Empire is tantamount to suicide.

"Others may not dare, but the ambition of Japan will definitely take risks. We all know that since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has launched many wars including the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, and they have been betting on the national destiny almost every time. They are very lucky that they have won every time, which has also made Japan become blindly arrogant about its own strength from top to bottom. According to the intelligence from the Northeast, the Kwantung Army began to gather troops on the Manchuria-Mongolia border. It is not difficult to see that the Japanese Army should prepare to go north to attack the Red Polar Bear. I am not optimistic that they can win the fighting nation. If their attack fails, Japan's next war initiative will definitely be dominated by the navy, and the direction of their invasion will naturally be self-evident."

Wu Siren conducted a comprehensive analysis of the current dilemma in Japan, especially the recent change in attitude towards Japan by the US emperor. Due to his "foresight" gaze, Wu Siren could easily explain the future and the outlines clearly.

"So that's how it is!"

Sun Liren and others can be said to be the best in the military field, but they are somewhat serious in the fields of economy, people's livelihood, etc. Therefore, they are both novel and admired Wu Siren for explaining Japan's strategic trends in combination with the overall national conditions. Everyone's surrender to Wu Siren's eyes were full of respect.

Wu Siren saw that the Sudou people at the meeting stopped making a sound, knowing that they had understood their main strategic intentions, and then said: "My wife in North America has purchased a large amount of strategic resources such as manganese, zinc, tungsten, oil, etc. Now the freighter carrying these materials has been headed to Europe and settled at international prices. These materials can be exchanged for half of the "Skoda" arsenal's light weapons production equipment, as well as many cannons and rifles. In addition, the tank engines urgently needed by our direct armored brigade can also be in place. Therefore, for the long-term plan of the War of Resistance and for the future of our Tax Police Corps, we must open the Haizhou transportation line this time and transport the materials back smoothly."

"Finish the mission to the death!"

Everyone stood up and said solemnly.

In fact, Wu Siren was just right. At this time, Germany was already in a difficult position to develop the military industry. Many of the main raw materials were either in the hands of John Bull or in the hands of Gaul chickens. Oil, iron ore, non-ferrous metals, etc. were all controlled by Britain and France. In order to get rid of Britain and France's blockade of strategic resources, China had always been the primary choice before, especially tungsten ore, which accounted for more than half of Germany's imports. However, Japan's invasion of China caused heavy losses to Germany's raw materials imports. This is the main reason why Xiao Bei's hard work and sent people to mediate the conflict between China and Japan again and again.

In fact, the US imperialists also had a lot of minerals needed by Germany, but the US imperial government only wanted to gain benefits from Germany and never thought of exchanging it with Germany in an equivalent manner, which made Xiaowang very annoyed.
