Chapter 372 Australia’s resources make the Japanese army jealous! The effect of this meeting was indeed good, at least Cun Yunsheng got a signal. That is, everything he has done has begun to attract the attention of some big shots. Not only that, they have even started investing in him. According to information revealed by Zheng Bei, the North American Chinese Chamber of Commerce has raised more than three million US dollars and is purchasing a series of equipment. This moved Cun Yunsheng very much. No matter what, what these people took out was real money. For the support of these people, Cun Yunsheng naturally wants them to see hope. Originally, Cun Yunsheng had always been causing trouble for Yingmei, but now Cun Yunsheng felt that he couldn't treat one favorably. So prepare to give the Japanese troops a little surprise and let them shift their attention elsewhere.
"It seems that we have to find something for the Japanese army to do. The Japanese army is still not crazy enough." Cun Yunsheng murmured. He remembers the 100 million jade plan clearly. Where are you now? What can these few million Japanese troops do? "Senzuo, what do you want to do?" Meng Fan, who was familiar with Cun Yunsheng, asked suspiciously. "It's nothing, I was just thinking about how to surprise the Japanese army." "What are the recent actions of the Japanese army?" Cun Yunsheng shook his head first, and then asked. Hearing this, Meng Fangliao, who had always been respectful, immediately said: "There is no movement. The five divisions of the Kwantung Army are attacking Changsha. At present, it seems to be in a stalemate. There shouldn't be anything big for a while." changes.” "If the Kwantung Army will increase its troops in the future, it will be difficult to say." After all, the strength of the Kwantung Army is obvious to all, with almost hundreds of troops. Only 100,000 people were mobilized, which is nothing at all. If another 100,000 people are deployed, I'm afraid it will be really troublesome. This is what worries Meng Fangliao. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth, and said disdainfully: "If I couldn't take action, how could I allow the little devil to be so arrogant?" Then Cun Yunsheng stared at a map again, which clearly marked the Australian Resource Mine Survey Map. The map details where in Australia there are coal mines, iron ore resources, and more importantly, bauxite and other resources, as well as oil and so on. Especially bauxite resources, which are resources that the Japanese army values very much. Because it is one of the important sources for the production of Zero fighters. Since aircraft entered the category of all-metal monoplane fighters, the application of aluminum alloys has become more and more widespread, so the Japanese army also attaches great importance to bauxite resources.
This map was roughly drawn by Cun Yunsheng based on the memory of later generations, especially the bauxite resources. If Cun Yunsheng remembers correctly, Australia's bauxite output is still very high. "Master, why don't you do some investigating?" Meng Fangliao asked curiously. "Do we need to investigate?" Cun Yunsheng chuckled. “Just the fact that it’s such a large piece of land is exciting.” "Not to mention these resources. I believe the Japanese army will be very excited if they see this resource map." Huge iron ore, and bauxite. And oil and so on. This means that the Japanese military's military industry will be greatly improved. As long as the Japanese army is not a fool, they will definitely be tempted. Maybe at that time, the Japanese army would also be able to play Iron Torrent. These are not impossible to achieve. Of course, it will take decades to realize the torrent of steel. You must know that when the Soviet army was disintegrated, it only had 70,000 or 80,000 tanks and tens of thousands of aircraft. It cost the family money for decades, and finally gave up on it. There is no way, the amount of steel consumed is simply a terrifying number. Therefore, the Iron Torrent is not something that ordinary countries can afford, but if the Japanese army occupied Australia. It's not that there's no hope. At least give people a little hope. "Senzuo, are these all true?" Meng Fangliao asked doubtfully. "Of course it is true, but some of them are difficult to mine. They are buried deep underground. With the current technology, it is too difficult to mine them." Cun Yunsheng shook his head and said. Hearing the word "true", Meng Fan couldn't help but breathe quickly. If he could get this, he would definitely make a fortune. ‘We are as rich as a country! ’ Meng Fangliao murmured. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng took another look at Meng Fan, and said with a smile: "It is true that he is as rich as the enemy, but we can just take a look. They are our allies, so don't think so much." "Whoever becomes your ally is unlucky." Meng Fanlao shook his head with a sarcastic look on his face. ally? In Cun Yunsheng's dictionary, allies seem to be used to deceive others. "Well, aren't I learning from the spirit of the British? Just catch the allies and try to trick them." Cun Yunsheng said with a smile. "What do you mean?" Meng Fanglia quickly understood what Cun Yunsheng meant. "Yes, that's right. I hope this resource map can mobilize the enthusiasm of the Japanese army." Cun Yunsheng murmured while looking at the map.
"Aren't you afraid that the Japanese army will get this map and come back to beat us when their strength increases?" Meng Fanxiao still asked worriedly. "It's okay. It's the US military that should be worried. What does it have to do with us? At worst, we will just be a coward. The little devils should have no interest in poor places like us." "Besides, this little devil is probably eager to move." Cun Yunsheng said incredulously. "It's a pity that such a specific resource distribution map was given to the Japanese army like this." Meng Fangliao said. "We just asked the Japanese army to complete all the preliminary work for us. Maybe there will be a chance to take it back in the future? After all, we are allies. If our allies are in trouble, we still have to help." Cun Yunsheng said meaningfully. "As for collecting some things, that's normal." "What do you think? Is this the end?" "Yes, you are shameless enough." Meng Fan was completely convinced. Meng Fan's words made Cun Yunsheng smile slightly. Could it be that what he said was wrong? Why do future generations talk about the difficulty of mining? It’s because the cost is there. If you want to make money, you must control the cost. For example, a liter of oil only sells for six yuan, and your cost is already five yuan, and you are still mining. The blood loss is so great that no one is willing to do it. But it was different now. The so-called cost was directly passed on to the Japanese army. When the time comes, let the Japanese army help mine, and you can reap the benefits later. In fact, Cun Yunsheng never understood what the Japanese army was thinking. If they didn't occupy such a big island, what was the point of making small fuss in such a place? There is no future at all. How could it be more fun to attack Australia? Previously, he speculated that the Japanese army did not know that Australia had these resources. But things are different now. With this map, I believe those greedy Rijin will definitely take action against Australia. The distribution of resources, estimated production capacity, etc. are clearly marked on it. Unless the Japanese base camp has a collective seizure and has bad brains, their ambition is definitely to attack Australia. The reason for fighting in the north and south is not just because they want to obtain a large amount of resources to enhance their national destiny. With this map, the combined fleet could be doubled in size. No! In other words, the number of fighter planes will also be increased. That's when everything gets really interesting. I'm afraid the US military's focus has to be a little more biased. No! It should be said that Stilwell will receive greater support. In that case, it would be a good opportunity for Cun Yunsheng to fish in troubled waters. "I just don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to take out this map so early!" Cun Yunsheng murmured. "No matter what, we will not lose. Anyway, it is the Japanese army who will lose."
"Go ahead, it's time for the hidden stakes to take action. After raising them for so long, it's time to dispatch them. Whether they can change the situation of the battle depends on them." In fact, Cun Yunsheng didn't know what the outcome of the battle would be if he took out these things. But after some comprehensive consideration, Cun Yunsheng thought it was better to take it out first. This continues to stimulate the potential of the Japanese army. He feels that the current potential of the Japanese army is still not enough. We should all tighten our belts and build more warships and fighter planes. "Activate the hidden stakes and be sure to send this map to the Japanese army." Cun Yunsheng ordered. "yes." … "Is this true?" Hideki Tojo asked with a frown as he looked at the telegram in front of him. "Hai, Your Excellency Prime Minister, this is true!" the secretary said respectfully. Hearing this, Tojo Hideki's eyes lit up and his breathing could not help but quicken a lot. If this is true, it is really good news for the empire. The numbers on the map were too unbelievable to him. I always feel like these are traps. But it feels true. If you can really get these resources. No! Especially for that bauxite, I'm afraid the empire's number of fighter planes will double. When the time comes, do you still need to worry about spending time with the enemy? If these maps were revealed, I believe those people would definitely go crazy. As for mining costs? Not a problem at all. Occupying so much land and so many natives, especially the lands controlled by the Southern Army, has a large number of natives, and they can be transported there to mine minerals. As for those wealthy places, you can definitely consider immigrating. As for salary? What salary is paid? Just take care of three meals. If these things are available, the strength of the Japanese army will definitely double. However, Tojo Hideki does not know whether the information in front of him is true or not, if it is just a trap.
I'm afraid the enemy is already waiting for them on the island. "It's true, it was sent by someone from Mitsui Chamber of Commerce." The secretary said quickly. Hearing this, Tojo Hideki's eyes lit up even more. He knew the capabilities of Mitsui Corporation. Since they sent it, that means it should be true. It just so happens that Australia also has their immigrants. Perhaps among the immigrants sent by Mitsui Corporation, some are from the exploration team. Anyway, with the endorsement of the Mitsui Chamber of Commerce, Tojo Hideki believed that he should know this. "I want to report this discovery to His Majesty the Emperor." After finishing speaking, Tojo Hideki took the map and walked towards the palace. Not only that, but Navy Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi was also notified. There is no way, this kind of thing cannot be completed without notifying the navy. "Your Majesty, if we have these resources, our navy can be expanded several times, and we will completely become the overlord of the Pacific, and the empire will not have to live on this small island." After hearing this, Navy Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi stood up and said . "Yes, His Majesty the Emperor, the Army will have more tanks and aircraft." Tojo Hideki stood up and said not to be outdone. "Your Majesty the Emperor, this is a battle that will change the destiny of the empire. Please allow us to bet on the fate of the country." Emperor Hirohito hesitated when he heard that he wanted to bet on the fate of the country. The price was too high. How many times have you bet on the fate of the country? If something happened, it would be over. And immigrated to Australia. The supplies that this requires are really huge. "Your Majesty the Emperor, since the Meiji Restoration of the Empire, every war has been a gamble on the destiny of the country, but every time we have won, the Empire has become so powerful. Now is the time to completely change the destiny. In addition to these minerals, Australia It is also several times larger than our territory, and it is not troubled by earthquakes or volcanoes. This time it is worth risking all our national destiny," Tojo Hideki said with an excited expression. This piece of fat is so big that it can make everyone lose their minds. It would be a waste not to eat the fat that is so close. If the main force of the US military is still in the Pacific, the Japanese military may have to consider whether to gamble on the fate of the country. After all, Yamamoto Isoroku had already proposed attacking Australia as a transit supply station. They refused the offer, but now it seemed that it would be unwise to refuse. The main force of the US military is not in the Pacific. If you don't take action at this time, you would be a fool. Finally, Emperor Hirohito decided to bet all the national destiny: "Then according to the opinions of the ministers, bet on the national destiny of the empire. If you win, the empire will become a first-rate power. If you lose, the empire will completely decline. Gentlemen, it's up to you." "Hai!" "I will live up to His Majesty the Emperor's great trust!" Everyone stood up and said respectfully. At this moment, the two major military services, the navy and the land, abandoned all conflicts and worked together with the goal of capturing Australia's minerals. "Order, the whole country will immediately enter into general mobilization for war, and all men of appropriate age must participate in military service." Tojo Hideki said decisively.
"Hai!" "Deploy another twenty divisions from China and prepare to form an expeditionary force." "At the same time, organize immigration and board the ship at any time." "Hai." At the same time, Navy Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi also issued the same order: "Order: All shipyards speed up the progress. Order: Yamamoto Isoroku immediately leads the main force of the fleet to return to reinforcements and assist the army in landing.!" "Hi!" Suddenly, the entire Japanese army entered general mobilization for war. It must be said that the island country entering the mobilization was very scary. All men of suitable age entered the barracks one after another, and all those officers who were still in reserve were sent to active service for the purpose of training new recruits. At the moment when all the Japanese generals in China received the telegram, they were stunned. If it weren't for the seal of the headquarters stamped on the back, they would all suspect it was fake. The most important thing is that sentence. "This order is extremely urgent. It must be executed from the moment the telegram is received, otherwise it will be punished as treason!" This shocked all the Japanese generals. When did the base camp speak so harshly? (End of chapter)
