In the past four years, Zhang Xinghan benefited from the assistance of outstanding figures in the Communist Party and the Kuomintang in political affairs, and he established the immigration foundation in a sound and impressive manner.

In terms of military affairs, the Chinese People's Liberation Army has also achieved great development results.

The first is the navy. After these four years of precious development opportunities, the Chinese Navy has not only reorganized the two fleets it lost previously.

A new fleet has also been added. So far, the Chinese Navy has its 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th fleets. Each fleet has developed to have two aircraft carrier battle groups, hundreds of jet carrier-based aircraft and hundreds of ships.

There are nearly three hundred battleships, destroyers, cruisers and other large and small ships.

In addition, the original submarine force has fully doubled in size, with more than 2,000 xxi submarines.

In addition, in order to form an aircraft carrier battle group and allow each major fleet to form a complete offensive and defensive combat capability, Zhang Xinghan divided the submarine force, which was originally independent of each fleet and under the dual leadership of the Naval Command and the Military Commission, into the operations of the four major fleets.

sequence.

Therefore, the four major fleets of the Chinese Navy are each equipped with a huge underwater force of more than 500 submarines.

The current combat missions and areas of responsibility of the four major fleets of the Chinese Navy are as follows.

Due to the defeat of the British and American coalition forces in the Pacific four years ago, the Chinese navy captured all overseas military bases of the British and American coalition forces in the east and west Pacific from the Strait of Malacca to the Hawaiian Islands.

The Bering Strait in the north also fell into the sphere of influence of the Chinese navy and air force with the recovery of Sakhalin Island, and has now become China's northernmost inland sea.

As a result, the South China Sea, Sea of ​​Japan, East China Sea, and Yellow Sea have all become inland seas of the Chinese Navy.

Therefore, the Chinese Navy's 1st Fleet, which was originally stationed in the Taiwan Strait, is now based in Australia and jointly controls the Indian Ocean with the 2nd Fleet stationed in the Persian Gulf.

The bases of the 2nd Naval Fleet are located in Mumbai, India, as well as the island of Sri Lanka in the south and the island of Madagascar in southeastern Africa and the western Indian Ocean.

The 3rd Navy Fleet moved eastward from its original base on the Japanese Islands to the Hawaiian Islands, more than 6,000 nautical miles away.

Jiuzhan Magpie Nest is based on the military facilities of the US military in the Hawaiian Islands, forming China's outermost defense chain in the Northeast Pacific.

At the same time, more than 100,000 land troops were stationed in the Hawaiian Islands along with the Navy's 3rd Fleet to assume the task of land defense on the islands.

This 100,000-strong army is independently assigned to the island defense war with more than 200 large and small ships, warships, thousands of large and small artillery pieces, and 200 land-based jet fighters.

The 4th Fleet, which was just established two years ago, is regarded as a naval mobile force. It is stationed in Taiwan, China, and the Japanese-occupied islands.

In addition, an independent naval mixed fleet is stationed in the Bering Strait in the north. It does not have an aircraft carrier battle group and is mainly composed of battleships such as the new Huo Qubing to form a maritime force.

Its main role is to maintain the territorial waters and airspace security of the Chinese nation in the Bering Strait and the Sea of ​​Okhotsk.

The second is to cooperate with the 3rd Fleet to enter the North Pacific and launch an attack on the west coast of the United States when necessary.

As for the Air Force, in order to form aircraft carrier battle groups for major fleets and for future operations, the sea-based aviation force will be the protagonist.

Therefore, Zhang Xinghan focused his attention on the navy. Compared with the navy, the expansion of the air force was not large.

Only one thousand land-based combat aircraft were added to the original basis. They were used to station Sakhalin Island, the Hawaiian Islands, and the Persian Gulf in the Middle East to provide air force presence for ground forces in the above areas.

The remaining fighter planes are deployed at land-based airports in mainland China and the newly occupied Indochina Peninsula and Southeast Asian Islands.

Therefore, the total number of land-based fighters of the Chinese Air Force is about 4,000. It is worth mentioning that there are nearly 2,000 He262 jet fighters.

In addition, there are more than 1,000 helicopters, 2,000 transport aircraft and more than 2,000 heavy and medium bombers.

Including sea-based aviation, China's total number of aircraft (including fighters, transport aircraft, bombers, and helicopters) at this time has exceeded 10,000.

For the Army, the number of tanks and armored vehicles has also increased to more than 8,000. Among them, Zhang Xinghan produced a batch of Leopard tanks that are more advanced than the No. 4 tank, numbering about 2,000.

In terms of individual weapons, after four years of hard work, the Southwest Border Guard Army (mainly the Central Army, Guangxi Clan, Sichuan Army, and Yunnan Army), which was originally backward in equipment, has basically replaced it with more advanced semi-automatic rifles and a certain proportion of

Submachine gun.

The weapons and equipment level of the troops is basically the same as that of Zhang Xinghan's Northeast Frontier Defense Force six years ago.

As its own direct troops (the original Northeastern Border Defense Army and the North China Army that was later absorbed and adapted, and individual elite units of the Central Army) dispatched troops to Japan, the Siberian garrison, and the Australian garrison have more advanced weapons and equipment.

The main weapons of the infantry have also been changed from the original American semi-automatic rifles and MP38 submachine guns to the more advanced MP40 submachine guns and stg44 assault rifles (MP44 assault rifles).

Basically all three thousand of the latest Leopard tanks were assigned to Wang Yizhe, Gao Chu, Huang Xiansheng, Du Ting, Wang Tiehan and other troops.

At this time, the total strength of the Chinese Army has exceeded 8 million, and Zhang Xinghan's direct troops have reached more than 4 million.

And it controls a huge logistics supply system, namely the Northeast Arsenal (formerly Shenyang Arsenal, after years of development, it has expanded to become the only company in China that can mass-produce various modern individual weapons, such as semi-automatic rifles, submachine guns, machine guns, etc.

China's first arsenal of artillery, Panzer IV tanks and various other armored vehicles),

Although the North China Arsenal (formerly the Taiyuan Arsenal) is not as large as the Shenyang Arsenal in terms of scale and production capacity, with Zhang Xinghan’s strong support, it has become China’s second largest weapons and small-caliber artillery company, second only to the Shenyang Arsenal, that can produce all individual weapons and small-caliber artillery except tanks and armored vehicles.

Second military industry enterprise.)

Zhongyuan Arsenal and Jiangnan Arsenal were expanded from the original Hanyang Arsenal and Jinling Arsenal respectively.

It is mainly used to produce individual weapons and some ammunition required by the Southwest Border Guard Army and part of the Northwest Border Guard Army.

In addition, Zhongyuan Arsenal also shoulders an important mission, which is to produce military trucks for material transportation.

These four arsenals, which represent the military industrial base of the Chinese nation, are all under the control of Zhang Xinghan, because Zhang Xinghan at this time controlled the huge financial revenue gained from all China and foreign wars.

Therefore, updating the weapons and equipment of other non-lineage troops and improving their combat effectiveness will not pose any threat to Zhang Xinghan.

They all relied on Zhang Xinghan to survive, as long as they had no objection. Once there was any objection, Zhang Xinghan only needed to cut off their logistical supplies, and he would be able to defeat the enemy without a fight.

This does not include the huge navy and the entire air force controlled by Zhang Xinghan.

In terms of army strength alone, Zhang Xinghan is still number one in China, both in quantity and quality.

Of course. After years of high-pressure efforts by Zhang Xinghan, the Chinese nation has basically become one, and as the control area continues to expand.

The leaders of many factions are no longer limited to mainland China in the past.

As long as Zhang Xinghan controls the balance of the distribution of benefits from external expansion, they will be happy to follow Zhang Xinghan. Since they can't defeat him anyway, they might as well expand the occupied area together and seize the inexhaustible and endless war dividends.

As for the two major camp groups, Germany and Britain and the United States, after four years of continuous war of attrition, the war potential of these two camps has been greatly weakened.

I have said before that the Americans have unique geographical advantages and strategic positions, and are almost at the forefront of the times, so their war potential is very amazing.

However, before they could recover from their defeat in the Pacific Battle, the situation in Europe suddenly changed and they were forced to get involved in the war to aid Britain and resist Germany.

This puts their huge war potential in a vicious cycle of immediate consumption, and they are never able to accumulate enough strength to launch a fatal blow to the enemy.

The German army on the other side was not feeling well either. The Anglo-American alliance caused the German army to suffer unprecedented losses and difficulties.

In order to be able to continue to compete with the British and American coalition forces, Hitler had to expropriate other European occupied areas that could not be digested well to obtain the soldiers, steel, oil, minerals, food and other materials they needed.

This caused great disaster to the Eastern and Western European countries in the areas controlled by the German troops in Europe, and anti-German sentiment was growing day by day.

At this moment, the entire European economy has almost completely collapsed, prices are soaring, inflation is extremely serious, and the lives of people in all countries have fallen into unprecedented suffering.

The United States and the United Kingdom are not much better. The American economy has regressed for at least ten years since before the war, and the United Kingdom, as the main belligerent country and war zone, has suffered even more.

Not only did the economy completely collapse, the entire British Isles was almost reduced to ruins.

Thanks to the support of China's submarine force, the German army caused great losses to the British and American sea transportation lines in the Atlantic.

On the other hand, China in Asia has been sending troops to the Middle East, Africa and other places in the past four years. However, China's own mainland has gained an extremely rare four-year golden period of peaceful development.

In fact, before this, Zhang Xinghan promoted the use of chemical fertilizers in the Northeast region, which greatly increased the grain production of farmers and basically lifted them out of poverty.

The four northeastern provinces have therefore become Zhang Xinghan's big granary for his foreign campaigns. Over the years, they have provided countless troubled times of gold and food for the Northeastern athletes in their expeditions to the north and south.

After the Chinese nation completed its substantial reunification, the success of Northeast China began to be replicated in North China, East China, Central China, and South China.

Generally speaking, it is basically impossible for the whole country to replicate the prosperity of the Northeast region in such a short period of four years.

However, Zhang Xinghan provided a huge boost to the leap-forward development of the entire Chinese nation. This boost included resources, labor and money.

This boost comes from the war dividends won by the Chinese Expeditionary Corps in its overseas expansion war.

The Soviet Union was divided equally with Germany, and it exclusively occupied the Japanese archipelago, the Korean Peninsula, the Indochina Peninsula, two-thirds of the Middle East, all of the Southeast Asian archipelago, and the huge Australia.

These glorious victories brought extremely huge war benefits to the Chinese nation.

Since ancient times, the risks and benefits of war are directly proportional. Looking at the five thousand years of history of the Chinese nation, it is a huge scroll of conquest, expansion, and integration.

I don’t know how many ethnic groups in history have been wiped out in the vast river of time.

Those who survived and prospered all gained extremely generous war profits.

Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s talk about the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 between the Qing Dynasty and Japan in modern times.

The victorious side, Japan, not only allowed the Manchus to cede a large area of ​​territory to the Qing Dynasty, but also received huge war reparations worth hundreds of millions.

It was precisely thanks to these huge war reparations that the Japanese quickly entered the ranks of the world's first-class capitalist powers on the basis of the Meiji Restoration.

In just a few years, it defeated Russia, the then established empire, and became a veritable Asian hegemon and world power.

It also paved the way for Japan's full-scale invasion of China and nearly annihilated the Chinese nation.

It can be seen that the benefits of such a war are really great, and now Zhang Xinghan has defeated various Western capitalist empires such as Britain, the United States, France, and the Netherlands through unprecedented generosity.

Seize the entire Asia-Pacific region's colonies from his hands. He also conquered and destroyed Japan in the east. Note that he completely conquered and destroyed the Japanese imperialist regime.

This was far greater than Japan's victory in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894, so naturally. As a victorious country, China also received greater war dividends.

As for the colonies of established empires in Indochina, the Middle East, the Southeast Asian Islands and other places, they have become a free labor and material export base for China to develop its own economy and industry.

According to incomplete statistics, in four years, under Zhang Xinghan's instruction and acquiescence, at least 50 million people from various indigenous ethnic groups in the Japanese archipelago, Indochina Peninsula, and Southeast Asian archipelago were recruited for various labors in China.

For example, mining, building railways, roads, airports, digging rivers, trenching, dredging, water conservancy and other projects.

It is worth mentioning that they work without any remuneration, and Chinese employers have further developed the capitalist employment system and used these free foreign laborers.
