Modern wars are no longer just confrontation on the battlefield. It is necessary to eat randomly in the army, but they need to rely more on the country's productivity, that is, timely replenishment of the battlefield consumption from bullets and military uniforms, to shells and chariots, aircraft, warships, etc. The war's requirements for national strength are severe and cruel. Short-term victory often cannot withstand the extermination. The entire process of war is actually the result of fighting and consumption. National strength is not as strong as people, even if the army on the battlefield is brave and good at fighting, it will be a day when it is weak.

In contrast to Britain, France and the United States, the German Third Reich had already made comprehensive preparations for war in peacetime. Therefore, in the first half of the war, she did not have to make any special efforts or mobilization in the economy at all, nor did she have to complete the painful transition from a peaceful economy to a wartime economy. Only after the failure of the blitzkrieg and had to fully mobilize military resources did the "war economy" period of the German Third Reich truly begin. Judging from the current situation, the success of the "blitzkrieg" gave the overall economy a buffer period, which has to be said to be a good phenomenon.

A country's economic policies and economic plans during wartime are closely related to its technological achievements. As early as 6 years in the state, during World War I, the Second German Empire tried for the first time to develop economic control means that were compatible with strategic needs. These means were all made up step by step, and there was no overall plan. Since these economic control means determined the amount of raw materials and resources obtained by each and the industrial sector, these relevant control departments obtained important power to organize, distribute and manipulate the entire economy. After the founding of the Third Reich, its military reorganization policy was formulated after taking into account past experiences, so it could complete the transformation of economic production to war more perfectly than during World War I.

The signing of the Treaty of Versailles is not a truce, it is a period of truce. Li Nian's truce is enough to prepare for a lot of things. An industrial power with the idea of ​​"revenge" is terrible. What's even more terrifying is that they not only did not forget the belief of "revenge" in their minds but also acted, such a country is not only crazy but also difficult to defeat.

If a country can forget the shame imposed by others, then the country is no longer saved; if this country not only forgets the shame imposed by others, but also pleases enemies, then it is either good at enduring and waiting for the opportunity or heartless.

The character of a nation determines everything it encounters. It is sad that nations are constantly conquered and even show off their "conqueror" history.

Germany has never forgotten the hatred of the past and the shame of being added. The signing of the Treaty of Versailles gave them the motivation to revenge. Is it scary for those who are trying to cheer up with revenge? Individuals are scary, let alone a country! This country that longs for revenge has a group of senior officials who hope to resolve grudges by using war means. It can be said that it is lucky and unfortunate. Of course, the treatment of successful people and losers has never been the same.

"Since the financial assets of our central government (including states and administrative regions) are only responsible for two-thirds of military expenditures between the years, in order to bear such huge expenses, a new financial procedure and fiscal system must be established." Siemens was not embarrassed. He said the truth that everyone knows. "In order not to let the public see that the government is bearing huge debts for reorganizing its arms, we issued a "Metallic Institute Securities" and this is also a strategy agreed by the government and the "Military Industry Commission."

The "Metallurgical Research Institute" is a purely fictitious institution, whose capital is provided by major arms manufacturers (the military industry alliance). The government uses this securities to repay the arms purchase costs. With the guarantee of Deutsche Bank, this securities will not be cashed after being handed over to the arms producers, or try to postpone the cashing period, and the interest will be paid by the government. This is equivalent to Deutsche Bank providing the government with a huge amount of credit. At the end of the fiscal year, the issued metallurgical Research Institute securities reached a par value, the Liyi Empire Mark, and when the war broke out, the only one that was the Imperial Empire Mark. In 2018, the Metallurgical Research Institute securities that were cashed out in the arms producers were paid in cash by treasury bonds that did not pay interest. In this way, it can be said that with Xu Yang as the leader, the entire government controlled all the credit rights of Deutsche Bank and the country B.

"In the early days of Adolf and Hitler's rule, there was a shortage of raw materials and agricultural products for manufacturing arms, and the military's gasoline reserves were about to be exhausted.

This shortage of materials is caused by the harsh conditions faced by Germany's foreign trade. "Siemens had a brief embarrassment when talking about Adolf Hitler. In fact, if Stark was the beneficiary of the conspiracy against Adolf Hitler, then these military leaders were the most direct strikers. Of course, he knew that this was not a good time to recall,:, the second rush continued!, and the government had to take care of military expenditure and the second economic demand, which was actually impossible. Until the fierce years, the country set a maximum wage limit, and the country was able to withdraw more money from the national annual income to repay the increasing public debt."

Of course Xu Yang knew what that was going on. To put it bluntly, it was to solve the problem of unemployed people. In fact, the whole process was more like taking the jaws from the fire, and the final result was also revealed. If there was no war, Germany would eventually collapse on its own.

There was a time when one of the achievements that the Third Reich liked touted was to solve the problem of the huge unemployed population in the country. The ever-expanding arms need stimulated the abnormal prosperity and development of the arms industry and related industries. "Skilled workers entered the arsenal, while unskilled workers built highways." After these unemployed troops entered the labor market, although the average salary was low, the overall purchasing power of society increased.

Of course, the lack of basic consumer goods in the Third Reich of Germany made the increase in purchasing power only stay on the books. As one of the solutions, the government advocated a simple, peasant-style simple life for the people, seeking food and clothing rather than luxury. People were called on people to use fish instead of meat, use black bread instead of white bread, and use margarine instead of real butter. High-end foods such as game, shellfish, caviar, fat foie gras and imported high-end liquor were only sold in big restaurants and high-end food stores. Enjoying these delicacies was advertised as non-Germany, sinful and depraved. Ordinary middle-class delicacies such as tropical fruits, imported meat, coffee, white bread and fresh butter were not often seen on the market. Generally speaking, under the policy of "cannons instead of butter, people's livelihood was only a secondary issue. The people basically supported this policy.

"Our finance has never improved. In addition to domestic difficulties, the conditions for foreign trade have also become worse. Before the year of nephew, we had profited from the decline in raw material prices in the international market. However, in five years, the prices of industrial finished products in the international market have been falling, while the prices of raw materials, food and semi-finished products have continued to rise. This is very unfavorable for industrial countries like our country.

Siemens' expression became more and more serious, "According to the increasingly deteriorating phenomenon, we have considered that if the speed of arms expansion remains unchanged, we will implement the food rationing system in China starting from the fall of the year. Fortunately, things are not as bad as we imagined.

",Yo years later, my country used advanced industrial products to exchange for a large number of agricultural products and raw materials from China, the Danish Little Soviet Republic and Eastern European countries. However, the shortage of domestic consumer goods and the low living standards of the people are far from solving the problem." Siemens paused and even smiled relaxedly, "Fortunately, the outbreak of the war solved this problem. We solved Poland, Denmark, Norway, and France one after another. They solved the funding problem for us.

Plundering is the most direct and effective method, and no one has ever refuted this point. Plundering also requires strength. Otherwise, it will not only fail to solve the problem and even intensify it. Of course, success is the best, and failure will not be worse.

"So," Xiao. Xu Yang recovered, "What do you mean is we must find new goals right away?"

"Yes." Siemens did not hide its aggressiveness, and even acted very calmly: "The Empire needs to find more direct and effective goals, and Asia is of course one of the channels for solution. But that's too far away. The Empire is now gradually focusing on Asia, which I personally think is unnecessary adventure. Small.

Many experts and generals present nodded in agreement with Siemens' opinion, which made Xu Yang quite confused. The benefits of the German Third Reich's advance in Asia were obvious, but it was obvious that many people believed that the region was too far away and could not be quickly obtained even if there were benefits, which made them have a lot of doubts or concerns.

"The current situation is that you agree to support China and weaken Japan with the premise of communication. Use the principles against Japan to improve diplomatic relations with the United States?" Xu Yang did not want them to answer: "We have completed the previous deployment. Should we consider the impact and layout in the late stage of the war and even after the war?"

"Yes? Yodel is the Chief of Staff, and he considered more: "About General Manstein's "wartime mechanism should be passed. However, I think the United States and the Soviet republics do not seem so easy to deceive?"
