Now the Japanese Army is equipped with standard weapons for all countries. Germany's F-190, B-109, Ta-152, and Do-412 have a lot of equipment, but the B-319 Army believes it is a naval aircraft but is not very interested and has almost no equipment; Italy's G.55, mc.205 also has some; Britain's Spitfire and even the United States' P-39p-40p-51 have (many of them were transferred by the UK). In contrast, the country's three-type battle, four-type battle, and five-type battle have become non-mainstream. Originally, Japan had high hopes for the five-type battle, but after the Ta-152, the five-type battle had no chance of mass production, so it was forced to dismount.

Under Germany's "instruction", Japan also got a lot of mosquito-type, Wellington and handsome warrior bombers from the UK. After using it, these became standard equipment, and a large number of domestic bombers were stopped.

Faced with the questioning of Kawasaki, Mitsubishi, Nakajima and other companies, the army and the navy are in a consistent tone. Your aircraft is not good! It has poor performance, high price, and maintenance is troublesome. The army has to fight. Is it good? No cheap weapons need to be transferred to poor ones, expensive? Where do you place the Imperial Army? You can quickly produce new aircraft, imitate if you can't produce them. If you imitate, you must pay attention to the quality, especially the engine is troublesome and imitate them! This really kills the chaebols!

You should know that now not only aircraft, tanks, artillery, and armored vehicles are being imported on a large scale, and even machine guns and assault rifles are planned to be imported. The heads of several major consortiums sighed. Finally, the navy has placed a large number of shipbuilding orders, and everyone is rushing to do business, otherwise it will be a problem to expand production.

Of course, there are also smart people who have seen the opportunity. Now the military has taken out a large number of physical objects and drawings for various manufacturers to study, and some are even free of charge. This provides convenience for small and medium-sized enterprises to overtake. If the whole machine cannot produce the whole machine, I can produce accessories, right? Many companies are now specializing in making accessories. In the past, several large companies made equipment, which was completely self-produced and not universal, and they wanted others to make no money. They had no chance to intervene. Now that they were impacted by imported products, the standards of spare parts have been publicized, giving small and medium-sized enterprises the opportunity to get into it. Invisibly, they cultivated the division of labor and the general system.

In fact, the senior management of the base camp is also very annoyed by the current situation. Relying on Europe in equipment means that Japan will not speak hard, and will alienate its relationship with the chaebols, which is difficult to maintain economically. However, Hori Teiki has his own understanding of losing because of poor equipment, and he will not be tough. Besides, he has seen the might of Tiger tanks, so can you let the troops turn around and use the bean chariot? Here is a rebellion! What should I do if I come to "Heavenly Punish the National Pirates"?

In the relationship between the rebellion of the army and the chaebol, the senior leaders wisely chose to appease the army. The chaebols can still use the army to deal with it. How can the army be suppressed if they are disobedient? I just hope that the chaebols will be more clear-headed and quickly do their production. Hello everyone, I am the bottom line!

Specifically for the Spitfire model, Japan was actually very interested in it before the Pacific War and had applied for purchase. It was nothing more than that Britain focused on fighting against Germany and was wary of Japan and refused to export it.

During the Indian war, the Royal Air Force's use of the Spitfire and the performance of the battlefield also made the Japanese side deeply admire it. In addition, the pilots' descriptions made the army bent on getting the Spitfire. As for another major British aircraft, Hurricane, Japan is not very fond of it. After witnessing its actual performance in the Indian war, it is even more so. It is believed that it is similar to the level of the One-type fighter that its country is preparing to eliminate. Not to mention that it cannot defeat the F-190 and the B-109, even Japan's own Three-type fighter can easily crush it.

So when the negotiations with Britain were negotiated, Japan insisted that it would not be necessary to not have any hurricanes. The British finally had no choice but to take out the fire. Finally, they still had some compassion for the US imperialists and did not hand over the latest fire 14 and 21 to Japan. However, Germany could not hide it here. Not only did the Griffin engine and even the actual drawings were moved back to Germany, but Germany also accepted the Fire 21 drawings, and was ready to learn from them and tried to improve the Ta-152.

What Japan got was the Spitfire 9 equipped with Merlin engines and some sea fires. Anyway, the aircraft carriers were handed over, so it was useless to keep the sea fires. Merlin engines were negotiated and handed over to Japan, so it would be hard to share them together.

But now the Japanese Navy has a higher vision and is not optimistic about the short-legged and average-strength sea fire. Isn’t it all over the army? You want to spit fire? You give it to you! Yu has become the largest overseas user of the fire fire, and the number is comparable to that of the B-109, which is more than the autonomous lords such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

The Fire Spitfire 9 is an early model, but in Japan's view, it is not weak in strength. It has its own advantages and the B-109, and is often stronger than the B-109 (because many subsequent modifications in history have not appeared at all). What Japan values ​​even more is that although the Fire Spitfire and the B-109 are both short-legged, the Fire Spitfire is large in size and the body is redundant, which can be cured. The B-109 is really not cured. So they randomly prepared for copying the house according to the name of domestic production, and of course the Ta-152 is also among the fakes.

The army also carefully tested the machine gun, believing that the German rotary gun mg213 is undoubtedly ranked first, but Japan cannot imitate this thing. mg151 and Sispano have their own advantages, but the thin-shell ammunition used by mg151 is not easy to imitate. On the contrary, the ammunition used by Sispano is less difficult for Japan, so it is better to make a decision. Even Sispano is ready to imitate; as for the US military's 12.7mm heirloom, Japan actually likes it very much, thinking that it is much stronger than its own products and is also better than similar German products. However, the cash-strapped Army cannot afford such expensive products and guns are not expensive, but the ammunition consumption is really fatal.

The wealthy Navy doesn't mind this. It has equipped a batch of Browning heavy machine guns in the land brigade, and many are placed on armored vehicles, and even installed on jeeps. The Army likes to install machine guns on tricycles. The Navy likes to install machine guns on jeeps. If there is enough ammunition, it will be open to use. At most, it will be possible to go to the United States to "get local materials" at that time. However, judging from the seizure of the joint fleet in the past two years, it will be a short time since it is supplied to a few land brigades to use.

Of course, if the UK is willing to sell it cheaply, Japan doesn't mind buying a little hurricane. Some of it can be used as a senior trainer, and some can be sold to China to make a difference. Now the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are very eager for technical equipment. The second-rate equipment replaced by Japan is basically sold to both sides (a small part is processed to Siam). In the end, the British side left part for the Pakistan Defense Forces, and the rest really decided to be treated externally in exchange for agricultural products and other living materials that were urgently needed in Great Britain.

The idea was good, but few countries wanted it all over the world. Needless to say, European countries, seeing that the British Empire was beaten to pieces, they would rather buy German goods than British goods. Besides, as long as they know a little bit, they would know that the B-109 is much stronger than a hurricane. South American countries and Middle East tycoons look down on outdated goods such as hurricanes, and they don’t want to be cheap. In the end, there was no way to deal with it to Japan at a low price. The two sides agreed to deal with 800 aircraft first, and Japan used grain and other agricultural products (such as rubber).

As soon as the first batch of 200 aircraft were obtained, Japan sold 100 of them to Chongqing and 40 to Yan'an. It left 60 as trainers and also handled more than 100 outdated one-type fighter jets to the Indian National Government and Siam authorities in Boss.

If you sell equipment to China, you will naturally have to sell some oil, otherwise these things will not be able to run away. From the perspective of long-term interests, in order to better revitalize the export business, the Chinese dispatched military authorities, which are flexible in mind and have excellent business methods, are not satisfied with being a weapon dealer, and have started a large industrial business:

From China, the Soviet Union collected a bunch of small and medium-sized refining equipment and opened refining plants in Shanghai. They started production using crude oil imported from the Middle East (mainly Iran). Although the technical level is poor, the output is low, and the gasoline and diesel refined are all low, no matter how low it is, it is real gasoline and diesel. Some are used to meet the needs of the dispatched troops themselves, and some are sold to the Kuomintang. The scale is small, which is 30,000-50,000 tons of sales, which solved the urgent needs of the Chongqing authorities. As for Yan'an, with the help of Yumen Oilfield and the refining plants provided by the Soviet Union, the demand for this aspect is not large.

Originally, the dispatched troops were very dissatisfied with "selling" Wuhan and other places to Chongqing, but now they think it's good to do this. Isn't the war just to make money from China? Now China runs industries, and does not have tariffs or local taxes. It's their own money. The product is in short supply and there is not even a decent competitor. It's just like making money while doing business. Since you can make money, why do you still have to fight with the Chinese to death? Are you crazy?

Although the Kwantung Army was not satisfied with the export of oil from the Chinese dispatched troops, it could not withstand the Chinese dispatched troops' sarcasm that you were carrying the Soviet oil. Beihuatai's oil was very prosperous and controlled the Sino-Russian trade channel. We couldn't even make some money by importing crude oil from the Middle East and processing it? It would be fine if I didn't let me export it. I would share the oil you got from Beihuatai! The Kwantung Army could only be speechless.

Can refining and chemical plants be run, chemical plants, steel plants, and machinery plants be run? Of course, it is also possible. So, in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, especially several along the rivers, coastal cities began to export industrialization again, and with Japan's unique seriousness and meticulous spirit, they planned coastal industrial zones, made "three connections and one leveling", "investment" and built special industrial trade zones to achieve militarized management. It happened that Germany, Italy and France also had an oversupply. If outdated industries wanted to export, they agreed to a package of agreements. The three European countries cooperated with Japan to carry out industrial exports to China. Europe invested in industrial equipment and technology, but accepted unified management by Japan, otherwise Japan would not let European countries come in.
