The chief of the Japanese Army University is indeed beautiful, but the second-ranked student will never be considered to be inferior to the first-ranked student. The two second-ranked students of different academic years stood in the snow for a moment and felt that their feet were a little cold. Nagata Tetsuzan and Ishihara Kanji both felt that

Unwilling to end the conversation immediately, he could only start walking again unhurriedly.

Nagata Tieshan spoke slowly and very calmly. This was his considered opinion and he said it very calmly, "I don't know much about He Jun personally, but I have seen the economic data of Manchuria and Mongolia many times. He Jun's economic main

It is driven by agriculture, mining, steel manufacturing, and industrial manufacturing. The empire will never sit back and watch He Jun unify China. If it were me, I would definitely take the lead in launching an attack on the empire."

Ishihara Wanji felt that Nagata Tetsuzan's idea was too exaggerated. He turned around and looked at Nagata Tetsuzan. Seeing that there was no hint of joking on Nagata Tetsuzan's face, he replied: "If the empire takes the initiative to attack Mr. He, Mr. He

In terms of propaganda, it has a comprehensive advantage. As long as it can defeat the Imperial Japanese Army, it can force the Imperial Army to make compromises. If He Jun launches an attack on the Imperial Army, he will inevitably be counterattacked by the Imperial Army. If He Jun wins, it goes without saying.

The whole of Northeast Asia is naturally at your disposal. But He Jun is not a god, and I don’t think he can build enough strength to defeat the imperial army in 15 years.”

Even though he was opposed, Nagata Tetsuyama was not unhappy at all. He nodded slowly, "What Mr. Ishihara said is the right way. I also agree with it very much. The reason why I make common sense judgments is just based on my vision of national construction."

Derived from it.”

Ishihara Kanji didn't expect Nagata Tetsuzan to admit his "abnormality" so readily, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. Although Ishihara Kanji and Nagata Tetsuzan were both second-ranked, their treatment was very different. Ishihara Kanji

He is favored by many senior military officers. Although there are some who are optimistic about Ishihara Wanji, they are far less than Nagata Tetsuzan.

Ishihara Wanji couldn't help but ask: "Nagata-kun, do you have a complete idea about the future of the empire?"

As an elite officer who is favored by many people, Nagata Tetsuzan wants to build a strong Japan. Because of this, Nagata Tetsuzan hopes that more talents can join his ranks. Although Ishihara Kanji's reputation is not good, Nagata

Tetsama doesn't care about that kind of worldly evaluation. According to Nagata Tetsama's understanding of Ishihara Kanji, Ishihara Kanji's various behaviors are just because he looks down on others because he is too smart. In essence, Ishihara Kanji and Nagata Tetsama

Likewise, they all look forward to a bright future for the Empire of Japan.

"Ishihara-kun, I think the Empire of Japan should be completely integrated, instead of being like this now, where various forces are wary of each other. If you want to change this situation, you have to allow all aspects to be corresponding within the same integrated system.

Power must also have corresponding obligations..."

Ishihara Kanji listened carefully to Nagata Tetsuzan's story. Personally, Ishihara Kanji admired Nagata Tetsuzan's knowledge and ability. Nagata Tetsuzan not only has a clear and clear understanding of various forces in Japan, but he can also pinpoint these

The upper limit and bottom line of power. In Nagata Tetsuyama's description, it is to cooperate and compete with various forces in Japan to establish prestige and gain trust as much as possible, and finally unify the forces of the entire Japan.

Nagata Tetsuzan seemed to be telling the story casually, but he actually paid close attention to Ishihara Kanji's reaction. It could be seen that Ishihara Kanji completely understood it. When Nagata Tetsuzan told the subtle points, Ishihara Kanji unconsciously showed a knowing smile.

.However, Ishihara Wanji, who fully understood this, did not show any excitement at all.

This convinced Nagata Tetsuzan that Ishihara Kanji must have done similar deductions. Its depth and breadth were not necessarily worse than Nagata Tetsuzan's deductions. So Nagata Tetsuzan deliberately left a few words out. As he expected, Ishihara Kanji seemed to

It was a joking answer, and it has profoundly pointed out the pulse gate and life gate of different forces in Japan. The pulse gate is used to control, and the life gate is used to force and attack.

Since the two parties are in agreement to such an extent, Nagata Tetsuzan can only judge that he and Ishihara Kanji must have a huge disagreement on one point. Nagata Tetsuzan stopped and lit a cigarette for both himself and Ishihara Kanji.

, then asked: "I have said so much, if Mr. Ishihara refuses to give you some advice, wouldn't it mean that I get nothing?"

Ishihara Wanji took a puff of cigarette and decided to have a showdown with Nagata Tetsuyama, "Nagata-kun, in my opinion, you are a talented person who pursues the country's socialist ideas. Since the Meiji Restoration, those in the upper class who are unwilling to accept the idea of ​​socialist ideas have been destroyed.

Not many of the remaining upper echelons may sincerely serve the country and the country. Nagata-kun tried his best to tame them and unify them. This is a great ambition and talent. However, I did not see the details in Nagata-kun's plan.

There is a place for the Japanese people. I don't think this is something Nagata-kun is deliberately ignoring."

Nagata Tieshan frowned unconsciously. He never expected that a smart person like Ishihara Wanji would think that the people should have their own independent position. People are limited to their livelihood. If they are allowed to have their own position, it will only

Causing all kinds of meaningless chaos.

Since Kanji Ishihara cares so much about the people, he must not be an unification faction. Nagata Tetsuzan knows very well that there is indeed no place for the Japanese people in the unification faction. There was no place for the Japanese people in the past, not now, and there will be no place in the future.

Even so, Nagata Tieshan still advised: "Ishihara-kun, when we take control of power, we will naturally treat the people better."

Ishihara smiled slightly, and the smile made this young officer with a round face look energetic, but also showed a certain sadness, because Ishihara was indeed sad for the fate of Japan. Nagata Tetsuyama, the most respected member of the company,

Having given up on the Japanese people, it is even more impossible to expect the top military leaders to implement policies that are beneficial to the people. This is the current situation of the Japanese military. Many people are dissatisfied and want to struggle, but no one can bring the army to Ishihara Wanji.

The path of recognition.

Although most of the cigarette was still left, Ishihara smiled and flicked his fingers, and the cigarette flew out, rolled in the air, fell, and plunged into the soft snow.

"Nagata-kun, if the Japanese people are not saved, Japan will not be saved. No matter how you deceive and drive the people, the people will ultimately live for themselves. Once the strong trend and spiritual deception no longer work, all those who do so will be

The angry people were torn into pieces. Even then, the Japanese people may not be saved. But the initiators will not be blamed! Those people will be punished. You must not believe my words, just let the future prove my opinion." After that,

Ishihara Wanji stepped forward and walked in his own direction.

Nagata Tetsuzan looked at Ishihara Wanji's back, and his heart was really churning. Ishihara Wanji was really unpopular in the military. Apart from the fact that he was too smart and looked down on others, the other reason was because Ishihara Wanji

This guy is too serious and never rubs dirt in his eyes.

For the Japanese, it is simply an innate ability to be conceited and to say one thing and do another. If you don’t do this, it is almost impossible to survive in Japan. However, Ishihara Kanji is one of the very few who has obtained the ability to rely on his own ability.

A minority of people who are in a position to do so without being punished by ordinary people in society.

When Ishihara Kanji rejected Nagata Tetsuzan, it was definitely not because Ishihara Kanji was selling for a price and wanted to use this method to get more things. Nagata Tetsuzan and Ishihara Kanji really have different views and do not collude with each other.

Nagata Tetsuzan has been rejected by many people, but this time it was particularly difficult for Nagata Tetsuzan to accept. Being so completely denied by others was something Nagata Tetsuzan had never encountered before.

It wasn't until Ishihara Wanji walked away that Nagata Tetsuzan barely regained his mood. He sneered and turned away. The two footprints originally left by walking side by side separated here, leaving two traces in each direction.

In this midwinter, there are footprints everywhere. From Vladivostok to the Chinese border, there are no footprints in the snow that have been trampled by many people. There are only roads that have been trampled by people.

The Belarusians did not choose to stay in Vladivostok to "martyr their country". Their leader Kolchak was just the leader of the provisional government. Including Kolchak, Russia had two provisional governments, the Kolchak Provisional Government and the Denny Provisional Government.

Kim Provisional Government.

The artillery fire of the Red Army was fired from the north towards Vladivostok. The White Russians had no choice but to flee to Northeast China.

What appeared in front of these millions of Belarusian refugees were barbed wire fences, camps, and hundreds of thousands of Northeastern troops on the Chinese border. The entire army was on extremely high alert against Belarus. All Belarusians who chose to enter the border would have their weapons confiscated, but they would never

Their belongings would be confiscated. The Northeastern Army divided these White Russians into teams of several people, registered them, and then placed them separately.

Afterwards, the Belarusian group, who obviously didn't know them very well, was organized into small teams, put on a train, and transported to the resettlement site in Yingkou Port.

He Rui's reports in European and American newspapers have indeed caused a lot of sensation. People in Britain, France and the United States hope that their governments will play a role in saving the white people.

For the United States, a country of immigrants, it is not unacceptable to have an extra 200,000 to 300,000 poor Russians. Britain and France have vast colonies, and their own slums are even more vast. It is really easy to accommodate hundreds of thousands of White Russians each.

The most important thing is that He Rui emphasized the "white" characteristics of the Russians in his propaganda. Before World War I, the Shanghai Concession took great care of white people and even provided ships for those poor white people to return home.

ticket.

Therefore, after this humanitarian incident occurred, Britain and France urgently allocated ships. Although Japan had no plans to accept Belarusian refugees, the United States paid for and temporarily hired some Japanese ships to transport Belarusian refugees.

By April 1921, when spring came and flowers bloomed, there were less than 4,000 White Russian refugees left in the Northeast. And the vast majority of these 4,000 people were women, who decided to stay in China and marry Chinese for various reasons.

He Rui doesn't care about this, and there is something very important recently. There is a coal mine in the Soviet Union area on the north bank of Heilongjiang. The calorific value of the coal here is not high, only 1800. It is the same as the caloric value of another anthracite coal of 4000-5000.

Compared with coal, it is completely inferior coal.

The value of these coals as fuel is very low, but the coals dug out here can be chemically processed to produce coal gas, coalified gasoline, and other chemical raw materials.

The Russians are sometimes so straightforward in their dealings. After negotiations with the business delegation, Russia allowed China to directly set up mines here. Half of the various products were 'sold' to the Soviet Russian government, and the other half were exported to the Northeast. Of course, these half of the products were actually

Instead of paying, it serves as the mining rights and annual mining tax.

This approach is actually very rough, very irregular, and very untrustworthy from a business perspective. But since the other party is Soviet Russia, He Rui can understand it. If the Soviet Union was proficient in business, I am afraid it would not have survived for more than seventy years.

That's it.

As for He Rui himself, he did not bother to spend time on business negotiations. Instead, he used He Rui's technical capabilities to work with the engineering team to solve the technical problems of the fractionation equipment.

It is said that it is difficult to see others carrying the burden, but it will break the spine to carry the burden yourself. Although He Rui has a lot of paper knowledge, when it comes to practice, he must rely on the scientists and technicians gathered in the Northeast to work together to solve the problem, and he can barely solve it.

Therefore, He Rui would never let his name appear in the initially completed process flow.

The technicians were sure that He Rui was not trying to make things up, but that he really did not take credit, and they all had strong admiration for He Rui.

Only He Rui knows his own business. The people, the working people who are on the right path and have mastered advanced productive forces are the main force in creating history. Only when He Rui, as a member of the working people, works hard with everyone, can this be accomplished.

project. He Rui was really unwilling to let his own willfulness ruin such a wonderful experience.

The technicians in Northeast China were busy until August 1921, when they finally shipped the first batch of products back to Northeast China. In terms of the purity of gasoline and chemical products, this batch of products can only be described as unsatisfactory.

But this is not important, because the performance of the Soviet Union was beyond He Rui's expectations. According to the commercial contract, the Soviet Union took half of the product. However, the coal mine was not shipped out of the mine at all, and was directly bought by the Soviet Union.

'The Northeast side is processed by the processing plant built in the Northeast side. In other words, the Northeast side actually got 100% of the coal mines. And the Soviet Union also got money to purchase products from the Northeast.

With things like this, He Rui naturally admired Soviet Russia's flexible attitude. And the most important thing is that some of these chemical products can be used to produce artificial rubber.

Compared with natural rubber, artificial rubber has many disadvantages. One of them is that there are too many other compounds in it during production, which can easily cause allergies. That’s why the condoms of ‘Teacher Du’ are labeled ‘100% natural rubber’.

In addition, the cost of artificial rubber is not necessarily cheaper than natural rubber, and may even be more expensive.

However, the biggest advantage of artificial rubber cannot be compared with natural rubber, that is, artificial rubber can be produced in factories 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. As long as there are petroleum or chemical raw materials, it can be produced continuously and is not affected by climate or

The influence of Britain, France and the Netherlands, which controlled the routes to the South China Sea.

Today's freight prices are not low, and coal mine prices in Soviet Russia are extremely low. By October, the first batch of synthetic rubber appeared on the market. Rubber tires for various vehicles and rubber soles for leather boots began to use these

rubber.

In serious business practices, He Rui wanted to indicate the source of synthetic rubber. So the Northeastern government generously wrote "synthetic rubber" on the labels of the rubber supplied to Soviet Russia.

Although the Soviet-Russian business delegation looked strange after seeing the label and instructions, they did not make things difficult. After testing, they found that the difference between artificial rubber and natural rubber was very small, so they accepted the goods.

At this time, trains were really coming and going on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Ore and timber were transported one by one to the northeast. After unloading at the freight yard in the northeast, they were filled with industrial and agricultural products and returned to Soviet Russia.

Even agricultural products are also industrial products. Even soybeans from the Northeast will be processed into soybean oil.

He Rui had heard about Mount Mengdu’s theft of the genes of China’s high-oil-yielding soybeans. Since the Mount Mengdu Company had stolen it, it proved that China did have such soybeans. So He Rui had been sending people to search for the seeds, and He Rui found them.

.There are indeed several types of soybeans that produce much more oil than other soybeans.
