"Yu Hanmou has sent three urgent telegrams for help in succession, but most of them are concentrated in the Wuhan battlefield, and the rest of the war zones cannot distribute troops... It can be said that the current situation is extremely critical. What can you do?"

"Me?" Sitting on Dai Li's special seat, looking at the military commander who was serious and asked him seriously, Qin Wei pointed to his nose in shock, "That... Old Dai, are you sure you didn't ask the wrong partner?"

"If the bureau chief asks you, you can answer it." Zheng Jiemin, who was sitting in the passenger seat, unnaturally wiped his sweat. Lao Dai? How dare this kid call the bureau chief "Lao Dai"?

"You are one of the first people to get the news through the Military Commission twice... Now that the Japanese army has begun to attack Guangzhou, do you have no idea?" Dai Li was also stunned by the name Qin Wei said to him, but he immediately came back to Shen'er. But he still felt strange in his heart... This kid called him "Lao Dai"?

"Your military commander is not bad at getting intelligence. Will your chairman ask you to go to the battlefield to fight back the enemy after you get the intelligence?" Qin Wei snorted, "The so-called opponents who are not afraid of gods are afraid of teammates who are like pigs. Japan has a small country with a small number of people. Even with the poverty of the National Government, as long as you use your brain more and squeeze out a few bites of idle food, it will be enough for them to lose money, but what about you? Humph."

"Daitty!" Zheng Jiemin was a little angry: "Do you think that military and national affairs are just as simple as writing two lines of words in a book? You thought you had some skills. Now it seems that it is just like those literati who don't understand the matter and will only shout at them when they encounter it. If it is really that simple to deal with Japan, and there are so many capable people in the government, why can we get to this point today?"

"I just said that I am not afraid of opponents like gods, but I am afraid of teammates like pigs. Chairman Jiang is also an amazing figure. Unfortunately, he chose his subordinates very well, but he would not choose a partner. What's the result? The good situation has come to this day." Qin Wei sneered, "It's difficult to deal with Japan? I can tell you the truth, Japan is not as powerful as you imagined. In fact, it doesn't take much effort to deal with it... You can only prove your incompetence when you reach this day."

"If it were you, how would you deal with Japan?" Dai Li squinted his eyes and lay on the backrest of the car seat, and asked casually.

"There is nothing else, the submarine is itself." Qin Weidao.

"submarine?"

"That's right." Qin Wei turned his head and looked at the military commander lightly, "Have you heard of 'unlimited submarine warfare'?"

"What you are talking about...what did the Germans use during the last World War?" Zheng Jiemin asked.

"That's right. That's that." Qin Wei nodded.

"But the Germans were defeated in the end." Zheng Jiemin turned around, "and this so-called unlimited submarine warfare has been boycotted by countries around the world since its emergence. In addition, the Allies later found a way to deal with this tactic. The so-called submarine warfare has long been inappropriate. Furthermore, with the strength of our navy, where can we implement this tactic?"

"In 1917, after the Germans implemented the unlimited submarine war, the losses of merchant ships in the Allied Kingdom increased from 300,000 tons in January to 400,000 tons in February, and then soared to 500,000 tons in March, until 850,000 tons in April. Among the British merchant ships going to sea, an average of 1 in every four ships was sunk. According to calculations, a total of 2,566 merchant ships in the Allied Kingdom were sunk, with a registered total tonnage of 5.73 million tons, of which British merchant ships accounted for three-fifths. The total tonnage of British ships built by the British ship was only 2.7 million tons. Although in order to defeat German submarines, the British Navy consulted many mathematicians and found the best way to reduce losses based on probability. Moreover, in order to maintain maritime transportation lines, the British Navy took emergency measures of the "fleet escort system". That is to say, a dozen or dozens of merchant ships were formed into fleets.

escorted by destroyers or cruisers to and from the United States and Britain. Since the escort ships were equipped with sonar and deep-water bombs, they could counterattack German ships, which greatly reduced the losses of merchant ships. After escorting in October 1916 in accordance with the above methods, in the next two months of that year, the losses of merchant ships in the Allied countries dropped to 240,000 tons and 230,000 tons respectively. With the continuous development of anti-submarine tactics, the losses of German submarines gradually increased. By 1918, although the German submarine still sank more than 1,200 merchant ships in the Allied countries and the registered tonnage was nearly 3 million tons, it was only half of the number of sunk in 1917. In contrast, the total tonnage of ships built by the Allied countries at that time increased by 1 million tons compared with the loss, thus breaking the blockade of German submarines against Britain by German submarines." Qin Wei glanced at Zheng Jiemin contemptuously, "Are you talking about these?"

"You know a lot." Zheng Jiemin was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Qin Wei to know so well about these things. "But what's the use of just knowing more? Can this deal with Japan?"

"So, you are not afraid of opponents like gods, but you are afraid of teammates like pigs." Qin Wei gave him a blank look, "Old Zheng, have you never thought about what I just said? What is Britain? It is the overlord, the maritime overlord, the most powerful country on the sea for two hundred years. But even such a country is almost unbearable by the German unlimited submarine warfare. After fighting for a long time, Japan is nothing compared to it?"

"We don't have the strength of the Germans." Zheng Jiemin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He was ridiculed as a pig in front of his boss. If Dai Li hadn't been in front of him, he would have jumped up and punched Qin Wei. But seeing Dai Li just leaning against the back seat of the car with nothing to express, he could only suppress his anger. However, although he was angry, he still felt a little ashamed. He only knew that during the last World War, the Germans used a tactic called "unlimited submarine warfare" to attack all merchant ships heading towards Britain, but he didn't know the specific data at all. He was a military intelligence officer.

"We are not Germans, but the Japanese are not British." Qin Wei snorted coldly, "'Unlimited Submarine Warfare' During World War I, German submarines sank a total of more than 6,000 merchant ships from the Allied countries, registered total tonnage of 12 million tons, sunk 150 warships, and lost 178 submarines. In order to break Germany's submarine warfare, the Allied countries mobilized a total of 5,000 ships and auxiliary ships and 3,000 aircraft... This is a comparison, 6,000 merchant ships + 150 warships + 5,000 ships and auxiliary ships + 3,000 aircraft = 178 submarines! I wonder who have you ever calculated this account?"

"Are you too late to say this now? Moreover, if you had calculated this result a long time ago, why didn't you say it until now?" Dai Li was still lying on the backrest with his eyes squinting, his face calmly without any fluctuations, but his heart was overturned...178, the only 178 German submarines actually made the Allies use more than 10,000 ships of various types and 150 warships, plus 3,000 aircraft.

However, he also knew that even 178 submarines were not affordable by the National Government. But as Qin Wei said just now, the Japanese were not British. With just the Japanese’s wealth, they could only have twenty or thirty submarines to be liquidated directly. Unfortunately, it is too late to say these things now. The Japanese are already attacking Guangzhou, and the only foreign port of the National Government is also facing the threat of loss. Even if they can get submarines, they will not have a base.

"The navy is incompetent, it's all waste!" Thinking about the current situation and thinking about the war data told by Qin Wei, Dai Li couldn't help but feel resentful towards the navy of the Republic of China... A group of idiots who cannot fight only know how to ask for funds and warships all day long. It's a blame for the government not paying attention to the navy, but why don't you study the naval battle in the last World War? If you have carefully studied this so-called "unlimited submarine warfare" and then proposed corresponding plans, even if the government can only prepare ten submarines, the situation of the War of Resistance Against Japan would probably be very different. How could you be forced into the inland like now?

"It's not that we won't say it, but the key is that we'll do it even if we say it? How many valuable suggestions are swept out of the door by your government? Chairman Jiang has great experience in eliminating hostile forces. He heard that he is still interested in old antiques such as Zeng Guofan and Hu Linyi, but why didn't he think about studying earlier things? 'Build high walls and accumulate grain', this is a trick from Zhu Yuanzhang. What did this trick say? That is to say, only by establishing your own economic system and laying a solid foundation can you continuously and effectively eliminate the enemy. And I don't understand that a government does not have its own economic policy research team and does not have a long-term development plan... From the beginning of its establishment, it will be a hammer in the east and a stick in the west. How many times does it take to deal with the Red Army? Once the external connection is cut off, it is allowed to go out but not in. Even if the leaders of the Red Army are capable, what can they do? Can they eat or drink?"

"If you criticize the Chairman like this, I can arrest you now. Do you believe it?" Dai Li didn't dare to listen. Although he was the boss of the intelligence department, he had heard many criticisms against Chiang Kai-shek and even many unpleasant insults, those were really nothing, they were just the vent of the losers... But Qin Wei's words were different. Because he found that many of the words this kid said were remarkable. Not to mention anything else, it was just the trick of dealing with the Red Army, which seemed to be better than Chiang Kai-shek.

The five major encirclements and suppression were more effective, and they would definitely save more trouble and effort. But the more this happens, the less he can't listen. First, the matter has passed, and no matter how powerful Qin Wei's tricks are, it is useless; second, as a subordinate, he let others criticize his boss without expressing it, so that his boss knows what would his boss think? The driver is fine, but isn't there another Zheng Jiemin next to him? This guy is about to go to the Military Command to report, which is the original General Staff Headquarters, directly under the jurisdiction of Lao Jiang.

"I believe it, of course I believe it. But I believe even more that 40 tons of treasures can make your chairman let me let any of my words and deeds...especially I can do more for you." Qin Wei smiled faintly.

"More? What's the matter?"

"For example: raising chickens, ducks, pigs, and fish!"
