Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 3256 Gold
Through the successful resolution of the crisis of trust through food public relations, Giovanni's ambitions naturally expanded.Among the four major European countries, Britain, France, Germany and Italy, there is no doubt that Italy is currently in the best situation.First, the mainland of Italy did not encounter war, so industrial facilities and industrial production did not suffer major damage; second, in the late World War II, because of the Italian King Vittorio?Vittorio Emanuele III believed that the Axis powers could not win the war at all, so he had the idea of ​​surrendering to the Allies. Therefore, a large number of Italian troops were recalled from the front line, which preserved Italy's military strength to a large extent.Italy has unknowingly become the strongest existence among the four European countries. If this opportunity cannot be grasped, it is impossible for Giovanni to become the actual controller of Italy after Mussolini.

The arrival of Giovanni, a competitor, put pressure on Guderian.

China is not the United States, although since the middle of World War II, China's military industry and basic industry have been in a period of rapid growth.But because China itself is a belligerent country, its own demand for weapons and equipment is very large, so even if there is some surplus due to the expansion of the military industry, this amount is limited.

In the final analysis, China's industrial foundation is still too thin.So although the Xuebing R&D Institute can always be at the forefront of the world in some cutting-edge technologies, and has avoided many detours.But the weak basic industry has limited the output of cutting-edge weapons and equipment.On this point, Guderian, who has stayed in China for a long time, is obviously clear.

Germany and Italy came to the door at the same time. The former had already obtained a guarantee from Ouyang Yun because of Falkenhausen (Falkenhausen was still on a secret visit to China); Well refused.Chen Shichang, who was originally happy to see Chinese weapons and equipment exported to Europe and go to the world, couldn't help being one head and two big.

After a noisy dinner, Chen Shichang simply invited the Germans and Italians into the meeting room after receiving the answer from the country, knowing that the country could not provide more basic weapons and equipment in the short term, but could provide some high-end equipment. Carry out transparent arms purchase negotiations with the participation of the three parties.

"I have been authorized by the Supreme Commander. For the sake of the friendship between China, Germany and Italy, we are willing to provide assistance within our capacity for the early peace of Europe. Since the French Restoration Army will be repaired for a period of time, what we brought out this time should have been handed over to the Their weapons and equipment can be sold to you first—" Chen Shichang is not a person who likes to go around in circles, so he directly threw out his own bottom line at the beginning of the negotiation.

"Commander Chen, can you tell me the specific quantity?" Giovanni asked.

"12 cloud-style assault rifles, 2000 million rounds of bullets. A total of 200 million grenades and grenades..."

"No artillery? We need artillery now," Guderian said.

Chen Shichang grinned and said, "There are dozens of self-propelled artillery of the Jiguang H Kai 43 type and the Thunderbolt rocket launcher. However, because this type of artillery adopts many new technologies that have just been developed by the military industry department of our country, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief Very worried that they would fall into Russian or British hands."

What needs to be explained is that these cannons were originally the equipment of the Marine Corps of the Wudao Tianwang Aircraft Carrier Fleet, and the reason why Chen Shichang is willing to take them out now is because Ouyang Yun hopes to use these cannons to obtain gold from Germany or Italy to enrich the country. of gold reserves.

Although the third world war had just started, because of the wife's revolution in the United States, Ouyang Yun already had a premonition that this war might not last for too long.Therefore, although it seems that China is still sending troops to fight and shout, in fact, its focus has begun to shift to domestic economic development and layout.

The Third World War, which was almost purely caused by China, undoubtedly brought better development opportunities for China.However, to the annoyance of Ouyang Yun, John Niu and others, because China lost too much hard currency such as gold in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, with the development of the country's economy, when it was necessary to issue more currency to promote circulation At that time, the shortage of gold reserves became a very fatal problem.

After a lot of actual combat, the self-propelled artillery made in China has won the respect of the world with its outstanding performance.So after Chen Shichang threw out the "Jiguang H Modified Type 43 Self-Propelled Artillery" and the Thunderbolt rocket launcher, Guderian and Giovanni's eyes lit up almost at the same time, and then they looked at each other warily.

"Commander Chen, please rest assured that even if you are defeated and self-destructed, we will guarantee that your country's weapons will not fall into the hands of the enemy," Guderian said immediately.

Giovanni then assured: "Italy's current enemies are only Belgium and the Netherlands. Please believe that they are no opponents of the powerful Italian army at all."

Chen Shichang frowned deliberately in thought.Giovanni struck while the iron was hot, and said: "Commander Chen, please give us priority. If our Italian Defense Forces can capture Belgium and the Netherlands, then we can completely seal the British on the other side of the strait. At that time, your fighter planes can even be in the Belgium or the Netherlands directly take off and land to continue bombing the British.” After finishing speaking, he turned his attention to Guderian: “General, in order to allow your country’s national defense forces to deal with the Soviets without distraction, I think you should also support the Italian army to obtain these Artillery. That way, I can secure your country's western frontier."

Guderian shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, Marshal, don't forget that it is precisely because our national defense forces insist on fighting against Soviet Russia on the front line, so your country does not need to worry about being attacked by Soviet Russia. If you can’t get replenishment in time and have to retreat to the western front, will your country prepare to fight on two fronts then?”

What Guderian said is also true. The reason why the Italians can live a "happy life" is indeed due to the contribution of the Germans.He pondered for a while and said, "Then let Commander Chen make a decision. Of course, if we can obtain this batch of artillery, we will pay in cash in US dollars."

"Shameless!" Guderian was well-bred, and he couldn't help but slander him when he said that.

After waiting for a long time, Chen Shichang finally got what he wanted. He frowned slightly and said to Giovanni, "U.S. dollar? Oh sir, please forgive me, the current U.S. dollar is not as strong as it used to be."

Giovanni's eyes widened, the dollar is not good, so what do the Chinese want.

"Because of this damn war, the original economic order has been disrupted. Therefore, the Supreme Commander specially instructed that if our friends really need Chinese weapons, then, gold, you can only pay in gold. "
