Chapter 138 The final problem
The poem continues to introduce Xiaoyue's strategic blow, coupled with the riots caused by tens of millions of US troops, the rapid recovery of normal order in the United States has become a luxury.
According to the actual situation, before the 3rd day of the year, that is, before the United States officially signed the surrender letter, the Republic persuaded all allies, including Europe. After the war, it continued to impose military control on the United States until the United States had the ability to produce living and production materials that could ensure the normal operation of society. Because of Europe's relations, it is stipulated that a comprehensive investigation of the basic situation of the United States will be conducted two years after the end of the war, that is, before the day of the year of injury, to determine whether it is necessary to continue military control.
Of course, power is linked to responsibility.
Although we know that this was a deliberate action taken by the Republic to control the United States, Europe's strength is not enough to help the United States carry out post-war reconstruction. It is not even able to ensure that hundreds of millions of Americans can fill their stomachs. Therefore, Europe can only make concessions on this issue. In order to avoid the Republic from using the United States' lack of hematopoietic ability to control the United States for a long time, Europe has left one hand, that is, two years later. If the post-war reconstruction of the United States still does not improve, most Americans cannot live a normal life. Or there is no basic condition for Americans to live a normal life, Europe will participate in the post-war reconstruction of the United States and work unrestrictedly throughout the United States.
Obviously, this is the two years that Europe has won for itself.
In the eyes of some people, this is also a problem that Europe has posed for the Republic, which has put the Republic in a new dilemma.
As mentioned earlier, long before the outbreak of the war, the Republican authorities prepared for the chaos after the war, such as allowing Indian grain production companies to purchase production equipment in advance and expand production capacity to cope with the post-war food shortage. It can be said that this move is of great significance. You should know that before the outbreak of the war, the SIA Group was the world's largest grain production and export group. The United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico are the major grain producers in the world. Among them, the United States, Canada and Australia are still the top five grains in the world.
In countries with the influence of the grain produced by these three countries alone, feeding nearly 30% of the world's population. Imagine that if the grain production in these three countries is affected by the war, even if there is only one quarter of grain production reduction, it will cause severe food shortages and even global food panic. The actual situation after the war is indeed the case. After Australia suffered a strategic blow, the grain output dropped sharply from the year of ostrich. Even if it recovers in the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the year of the war, the reduced grain output is as high as hundreds of millions of tons.
Because Australia's main production areas do not overlap with the main population settlements, the damage to Australia's grain production areas is not serious. Relatively speaking, the grain production areas and population settlement areas of the United States and Canada basically overlap with the population settlement areas. With severe unrest, the food production of the two countries was even more severe. According to the data released after the war, it was not until the year of drowning that the main agricultural infrastructure of the United States and Canada was fully restored. In the year of 2018, the grain production of the two countries recovered to a level equivalent to that of pre-war jumps. Because during the war, both countries lost a large number of people, and there was no need for
Exporting. Therefore, the level of the pre-war account is basically the ability to meet the basic living needs of the people of the two countries. It has been three years since we returned to the pre-war level. It can be seen that after the war, the Republic has to spend a lot of effort to ensure the lives of Americans and more than 100 million Canadians. You should know that these 700 million people need to attract at least B ton of grain every year, and before the year, the food gap between the two countries was as high as B ton of food. Let's not talk about how to produce so much grain. Just transporting B ton of grain across the ocean and then distributing it to the people is a huge project!
In fact, for post-war reconstruction, food is only a very small problem. In any case, transporting 600 million tons of grain is the Mysterious Bulk Cargo Ship, and by the end of the war, the Republic had a must-have ship.
Relatively speaking, the real problem is to help the United States carry out post-war reconstruction.
Post-war reconstruction mainly involves two issues: one is materials and the other is manpower.
Although before the outbreak of the war, the United States was one of the largest industrial countries in the world. It not only had a complete industrial system, but also had abundant industrial resources and strong industrial technology. However, at the end of the war, not only did the strategic strikes destroy most of the United States' industrial facilities, but the riots of the U.S. team also destroyed the remaining industrial foundation. When the U.S. authorities signed a surrender agreement, not to mention the industrial system, there was not even a factory in the United States that could produce iron nails, and almost all industrial products needed to be imported from abroad. What's more, because in the large-scale rules, the four people were gang-up. 8. The experience of not understanding is that the panic was ready to hit the attack. In order to troll the Republican authorities at the fastest speed
Relieve the American war palpitations…” Not only did it focus on the American factories, it also targeted American workers, especially technical workers. The result was that at the end of the war, the United States not only did not have factories and industrial equipment, but also did not have enough skilled technical workers. In other words, even if the Republic can provide the United States with enough industrial equipment, especially basic industrial equipment such as machine tools, it is difficult for the United States to restore its hematopoietic ability in the short term. In this way, the Republic must directly provide the United States with materials for reconstruction, especially steel, cement, synthetic plastics, engineering equipment and other strategic materials and basic equipment. It will also help the United States to cultivate a group of industrial workers and construction workers.
Relatively speaking, this is still a relatively simple question.
In any case, the Republic has long been no longer a low-end industrial producer. Most of the production of basic materials has been transferred abroad, especially in the surrounding areas. For example, as early as Tiannian, India became the world's largest exporter of primary industrial products and industrial raw materials. It not only produced basic products that meet the needs of the Republic's market, but also sold various low-end industrial products all over the world. More importantly, countries like India are mostly members of intensive groups. Moreover, these countries have signed treaties with the Republic, that is, exchange basic industrial products for the Republic's high-end technology to upgrade the industrial structure. There is no doubt that this is a win-win transaction. The Republic exports technology and obtains products, and India sells products and obtains technology. In other words, the Republic does not need to pay, at least it does not need to spend a lot of money to buy the basic materials needed for the US post-war reconstruction. What needs to be taken out is only
Some advanced technologies, to be precise, are advanced technologies that are about to be outdated. In the entire industrial chain, as the United States restores its hematopoietic ability, the United States, which once stood at the top of the world, will fall to the bottom, eventually replacing emerging countries such as India and other emerging countries, and become a new low-end industrial country. In fact, the Republic also did the same. That is, using many technologies that seemed very advanced before the war, they used India, Pakistan, Myanmar, Bangladesh, and Indonesia. Even if they wanted Japan and the Philippines, they exchanged a large number of basic resources, and then used these resources to help the United States rebuild, and finally used the factories established by the United States to obtain benefits. Because the main force involved in the reconstruction of the United States was Republican enterprises, so Republican enterprises naturally occupied the US market, especially the high-end market, and eventually made huge profits from it.
In fact, this is also the fundamental reason why many intensive group members scramble to participate in the post-war reconstruction of the United States and even enter the US market with free aid. You should know that in terms of Canada or Mexico, the traditional North American market has a population, and from the perspective of geographical scope, resource quantity, education level, traditional culture, etc., the development potential of the North American market exceeds that of its calcium. In terms of population, South Asian market, with a population of about 100 million, is the largest single market in the world. In terms of popular sayings in the years after the war, whoever occupys the US market will have the future.
Relatively speaking, the real problem is human resources.
Although fundamentally speaking, the Republic does not lack human resources to help the United States carry out post-war reconstruction. You should know that post-war reconstruction is a matter for the United States after all, and after the war, at least tens of thousands of Americans and military personnel need to be repatriated to their hometowns, and these people all need the source of living through labor, plus hundreds of millions of Americans who have lost their jobs due to strategic strikes. The United States itself does not lack labor. For the Republic, the human resources that need to be paid are only human resources to help and supervise the post-war reconstruction of the United States. In fact, because the Republic also has tens of millions of soldiers who want to repatriate the exact number of more than 00,000. These people also need to
Labor positions, coupled with the significant reduction of military capacity in the Republic, there are not many labor positions available in society, so it is not difficult for the Republican authorities to recruit labor. However, there is an essential difference between providing reconstruction materials. That is, the Republican authorities cannot use technology to pay wages to retired soldiers. In other words, a large-scale reconstruction team must be maintained, even if these teams are responsible for the post-war reconstruction work of the United States. In the end, the United States, which receives reconstruction help, will pay the bill. But before that, the Republican authorities must pay these people, and they will pay the salary according to the labor standards of the Republic.
There is no doubt that this is a no expense! It can be said that the Republic paid an extremely huge price to help the United States carry out post-war reconstruction.
This is also the fundamental reason why Europe created difficulties for the Republic on the issue of post-war reconstruction. The problem is that compared with the benefits of dominating the North American continent, especially the significant impact on the future world pattern, this price is nothing. So from the very beginning, the Republican authorities did not think about letting Europe intervene in the reconstruction work of the United States. They planned the reconstruction work of the United States before the end of the war.
Among them, the first point is to manage war refugees according to race.
In fact, the original intention of the Republic to set up war refugee camps in the United States and Canada was to facilitate post-war management and bypass the hurdle of forced immigration. It should be noted that according to international law, even if the Republic is a victorious country and the United States is a defeated country, the Republic authorities have no right to seize the basic rights of American civilians, and during the United States, they will provide American civilians with the most basic human rights to American civilians. In other words, as long as the state of war is ended, that is, the legal state of wartime control, the Republic authorities will no longer have the right to interfere with the free activities of American civilians within the legal framework, nor will they force Americans to immigrate or relocate. Of course, under the wartime system, the Republic authorities can use reasons such as convenient operations to ensure the basic safety of the parties involved. They will force them to accept wartime protection, that is, Americans entering the war refugee camps to accept residence.
Set.
When Europe created problems for the Republic, it also left the Republic for two years.
Of course, this is the direct result of the game between great powers. According to some information released later, in the negotiations with Europe, the Republic proposed to continue to maintain wartime controls during these two years before accepting the request for a two-year period, otherwise the Republic would not make any commitments to the United States' post-war reconstruction work and the United States' social order.
Because Europe did not insist on this issue, the Republic also proposed that after the end of the war, all Americans would decide the future of the United States, that is, to decide in the form of a referendum whether to maintain a complete and unified United States or to break the United States into multiple countries.
The Year of the Knife can change the values and worldview of most Americans, and then in two years, the lifestyle and place of life of most people can change.
According to some data disclosed after the war, before the day of the year and the old month, at least the Americans invoked the Republic were accepted for compulsory resettlement. You should know that after the war, the American population had dropped to 600 million, which is equivalent to half of the Americans received resettlement. Obviously, this was enough to change the population distribution of the entire United States, and created conditions for fundamentally splitting the United States. For example, in the post-war reconstruction work, the New England region, dominated by white people, always received the most basic assistance, that is, it only guaranteed that most people would not starve to death. As for the others, it depends on luck. In the northwest region of the United States, with Asians, especially Chinese as concubines, the post-war reconstruction level was the highest. Not only did most of the infrastructure reconstruction work be completed within two years, some large-scale projects were only started and not completed. The basic industry was also restored, becoming a region where the United States was local wells and restored its hematopoietic ability.
Europe can only be anxious about this arrangement of the Republic.
In any case, the intensive group that occupied the United States was led by the Republic, while Europe was not a member of the intensive group. More importantly, even the member states of the intensive group were working hard to realize their own interests and did not regard maintaining the complete unification of the United States as their responsibility.
In order to determine the interests in the United States, the Intensive Group held an enlarged meeting before the Liyue Initiative Day.
There is only one focus topic at the station meeting, namely how to divide the occupied areas and allocate occupation responsibilities. Although the Republic has issued an invitation before this, we welcome all group members to send troops to participate in the occupation of the United States. And the member states that promise to send troops can obtain an occupied area, on the most important question, whether to divide the military-controlled areas according to the occupied areas, or divide the occupied areas according to the administrative divisions of the United States, the Republic authorities have never given a clear reply, or even did not.
This issue is explained. There is no doubt that if this issue cannot be clarified, then for the members of the intensive group, occupying the United States is just empty talk, or it is just a thankless labour, and few countries are willing to suffer this loss. The problem is that if this opportunity is missed, it will not only offend the Republic, but also likely to miss the opportunity for rapid development after the war. Based on these factors, the member states of the group are in a dilemma, that is, they are unwilling to give up, and they do not want the Republic to decide everything alone.
In fact, this is also the most concerned thing the Republican authorities have paid for in the old months.
After a round of high-intensity summit consultations, it was not until the day of the Old Yuecha, two days before the United States officially signed the surrender letter that the major member states of the intensive group agreed with the Republic on the most critical issues, that is, the occupied areas will become the main basis for countries to occupy the share of the post-war U.S. market based on factors such as area, population, etc., and combined with other factors to determine the post-war interests of each country. In other words, the occupied areas are not determined by the occupied areas and the control methods, but the occupied areas are uniformly managed in accordance with the requirements of the Republic.
The next day, the resolution was adopted at the enlarged meeting of the intensive group.
It was not until this time that the intensive group, as the victorious party, solved the last key issue before the end of the war, and it was also a key issue related to whether the war would end.
After nearly 6 years of fierce battles and at the cost of hundreds of millions of lives, the Third World War finally came to an end.
Strictly speaking, the 3rd of the Old Month is the end of World War III. It was not until the morning of this day that when the US representative signed the unconditional surrender letter and the victorious country represented by the Republic signed the same agreement, the war was officially over!
For "Heroes of Troubled Times", I would like to ask all brothers for the guaranteed monthly tickets and the monthly tickets for the Kouyue. Let's fight for the new book together in Kouyue!
