The war against the comprehensive national strength is the most important of the comprehensive national strength~

All day on the 29th, Wang Yuanqing investigated and learned about the domestic economic situation, international economic and trade environment, and obtained first-hand economic information.

In terms of economic work ability, Gu Weimin is not as good as Pang Xinglong.

Fortunately, when Gu Weimin became Premier of the State Council, the economic situation in the Republic had improved; Pang Xinglong laid a solid foundation for industrial structure adjustment before leaving office, and did not leave any problems for Gu Weimin.

In terms of financial management, Gu Weimin's ability is impeccable.

In 2021, the Republic's fiscal deficit reached a record 825.43 billion, with domestic inflation exceeding 7%. By 2023, not only will the fiscal deficit be reduced to 100 million, but domestic inflation is less than, Gu Weimin also proposed to repay 67% of the debt by two years.

Pang Xinglong recommended Gu Weimin as prime minister, not opposing Wang Yuanqing's entry into the central government, but was attracted by Gu Weimin's ability.

From Ji Youguo's rule to Zhao Rundong's power, the Republic has been implementing an expansionary fiscal policy and promoting social and economic reforms with industrial structure adjustment as the core. When Pang Xinglong left office, the Republic "owed more than 30 trillion yuan"! Although the large-scale issuance of national debt solved the problem of infrastructure and economic stimulation, it also had serious negative effects and left behind future troubles. Not to mention anything else, from 2015 to 2022, the Republic's inflation has been above 65%, which is equivalent to "diluting" half of the wealth in the hands of the people.

Expansion-oriented fiscal policy cannot last, and the debts owed will be paid sooner or later.

As the industrial structure adjustment is completed, high-tech, mainly high-tech, such as electric technology, biotech, communication technology, electronic technology, etc., has gradually replaced resource-based and labor-intensive industries. The Republic not only officially entered the ranks of developed countries, but also gradually started to be on the right track.

In this case, a prime minister who can "financial management" can maximize the economic foundation of the republic.

Gu Weimin, who was "difficult" in the Ministry of Defense for 5 years, became the best choice for the management of the defense budget.

Wang Yuanqing had to admit that Gu Wei's civilians had a "special" ability. Under his control, almost every amount of money was spent on the blade.

In the first three quarters of 2024, fiscal expenditure not only did not overspending, but also saved more than 980 billion yuan.

According to the budget report submitted by Gu Weimin, the fiscal surplus for the whole year is expected to reach 40%, exceeding 15% compared with the budget at the beginning of the year. Because the 2025 fiscal budget plan will be proposed to control the local fiscal budget in 2025 to within 33 trillion yuan, and strive to save 7500 billion yuan by the end of 2025 to lay the foundation for completing the long-term plan. But now it seems that Gu Weimin's grand goals will definitely not be achieved.

It looks like the Republic is very "rich".

In fact, the Republic has no money in its pocket.

Because the global Great Depression has not yet ended, promoting economic development remains the core task of the Republic.

After the trade war "stopped", countries have increased "government consumption" and stimulated their own economic development through infrastructure investment, government-guaranteed loans, public resource consumption, etc. The direct consequence is that major economies have hoarded surplus materials that cannot be digested for several years or even decades. The Democratic Party of the United States won the general election, and Westwood will definitely vigorously "remediate" the US economy and use more financial resources to stimulate domestic consumption; the Republic gradually controls surrounding markets, and economic development has changed from expansion to solid foundation, and the world economy will improve.

Improvement is a gradual process, not a matter of success overnight.

During this period, no matter which country, it has to find ways to consume the remaining materials accumulated into mountainous areas and inject new vitality into economic development.

This is also the basic basis for the inevitable outbreak of a large-scale regional war involving multiple parties.

Unlike other countries, under the influence of industrial structure adjustment, the Republic does not have the problem of "serious oversupply of materials" but the problem of "insufficient resources and imbalance in distribution". That is to say, when other countries are desperately consuming inventory and providing vitality for economic development, the Republic must carefully utilize limited resources and reasonably allocate economic resources and social wealth to promote economic development.

According to Gu Weimin, even if the land goal is reduced by half by the end of 2026, the problem is still very serious.

Zhao Rundong must have said hello to Gu Weimin, otherwise Gu Weimin would not have been prepared so well.

After Wang Yuanqing proposed to leave an additional budget for the war, Gu Weimin came up with a very detailed assessment report.

If the war ends within half a year, without considering the loss of equipment, the war expenditure will be between 15,000,18,000, and the reconstruction of national defense forces after the war will cost 1,200,015,000, total expenditure will be nearly 3 trillion yuan.

If the war lasts for one year, direct expenditure will exceed 35,000 indirect expenditures of 3 trillion yuan, and the total expenditure will be nearly 7 trillion yuan.

If the war lasts for two years, direct expenditure will exceed 8 trillion yuan, and indirect expenditure will exceed 55,000 yuan.

If the war lasts for more than two years, the total expenditure is likely to exceed 20 trillion.

Very amazing and very shocking

.

Although Wang Yuanqing didn't know how Gu Weimin came to these conclusions, one thing can be admitted that the amount of war expenditure was or not, and after the scale was expanded, the money was spent faster than the flow of money.

According to Gu Weimin, the Peninsula War will consume all the savings of the Republic within five years.

What surprised Wang Yuanqing was that Gu Weimin no longer opposed the use of military means to resolve the problem. After Wang Yuanqing proposed to formulate a detailed war budget as soon as possible and purchase various war materials in advance, Gu Weimin came up with another very detailed plan, which clearly mentioned the main matters for war preparations.

There is no big problem with equipment, after all, the Republic's weapons and equipment possession is one of the best in the world.

Even if some advanced equipment with a small amount of stock is much higher in the war period than in the usual period. Take the j-14 fighter as an example. The annual output of a production line in peacetime will not exceed 200, ensuring that it can retain enough skilled workers; during the war period, as long as the supply of raw materials and accessories is solved, the monthly output can exceed one aircraft. If a large number of skilled workers are trained, the annual output is completely possible. Even relatively special naval ships can be more than doubled in the construction speed while ensuring the supply of raw materials and accessories.

The demand for large-scale wars, ammunition and other consumption materials far exceeds that of weapons and equipment.

During peacetime, no country hoarded ammunition in large quantities because most of the ammunition could not be given to other countries like handling second-hand weapons. If it was not consumed on the battlefield, it would have to be destroyed. Take the US air-launched cruise missiles as an example. In the peacetime, there were less than 000 pieces, and nearly 1,000 pieces were used in the first few days of the Iran war. If the United States did not have a strong military industry, would it be courageous to use large amounts of advanced ammunition in the war?

If you have supplies alone, you cannot win the war, and you have to transport the supplies to the combat troops.

Logistics support capabilities are a serious challenge to any country.

In order to fight the Iran war, the United States mobilized more than one giant cargo ship, transporting an average of 15,000 to the front line every day: various war materials, and for this reason, nearly 5,000 to the daily transportation of various materials. Although the Korean Peninsula is right next to the Republic, there are three railways, Dandong, Linjiang and Tumen, leading to North Korea, but the ability of land transportation is not as good as that of sea transportation, and we have to consider the risk of the railway line being bombed.

Gu Weimin did not introduce the situation in North Korea, but focused on the situation in the country.

3 railway lines ensure maximum combat consumption of 150,000 ground troops.

Including road transportation, deducting the impact of war on transportation capacity, up to 200,000 ground troops are guaranteed to fight on the front line. Because North Korea does not have enough national defense industrial foundation and is very easy to be hit, it is necessary to consider providing necessary assistance to the North Korean army. In this way, it is very good to be able to send 7 armies to fight on the front line.

The air force deployed at home still needs sufficient logistical support.

Fortunately, the Republic has a strong transportation infrastructure that is sufficient to meet logistics needs.

Gu Weimin mentioned the last problem in the area, even Wang Yuanqing did not expect that the treatment and resettlement of casualties was not only for the casualties.

There will be casualties when there are wars. The Lao war exposed the Republic's shortcomings in the construction of the military medical team. Even if medical staff from major military hospitals and local public hospitals can be mobilized during the war, they must be set up wartime hospitals in China not far from the front line to provide the best treatment services for the wounded.

Compared with other mobilizations, it is relatively difficult because non-military personnel are involved.

According to Gu Weimin, in addition to the central government, the capabilities of local governments, especially local governments near the war zones must be used to share the pressure of the central government.

Wang Yuanqing did not agree with Gu Weimin's suggestion for the time being, because Zhao Rundong had clearly stated that he should be "low-key".

After a busy day and determining the main problem, Wang Yuanqing deployed a task to the State Council, allowing Gu Weimin to be fully responsible for the relevant preparations.

Rejected the dinner prepared by Gu Weimin, Wang Yuanqing and Ye Zhisheng left the State Council.

"The Head of State must have said hello to Gu Weimin." After getting in the car, Ye Zhisheng started talking, "Otherwise, today would not be so smooth, and it would be fine, so we would not waste our saliva."

Wang Yuanqing smiled and shook his head, saying, "You always like to look at others with glasses. Gu Weimin was promoted by Lao Zhao himself. Although it conflicts with our opinions at some point, he will not be worse than us when safeguarding national interests. Before, everyone was working for peace. As the possibility of a war breaks out, it becomes meaningless to continue working for peace. No matter who it is, they will change their attitude and deal with a new situation driven by national interests."

Ye Zhisheng smiled and said, "Brother Wang, I have to continue learning from you."

"Take it slow, you are still young." Wang Yuanqing also laughed.

At this time, the phone in the car rang.

Ye Zhisheng hesitated for a moment, and Wang Yuanqing also frowned because it was not an ordinary line, but a confidential line specially set up by the Military Intelligence Bureau.
