Chapter 705 War without gunpowder

ww.x.om    After the end of World War II, the Chinese Empire was in an absolute military and economic hegemony. Although the Chinese Empire had the ability to completely destroy the German League and NATO, people all over the world longed for peace. In this environment, the Chinese Empire, which has always claimed to be civilized, democratic, and peaceful, dared not dare to take the blame for the world and ignite the fire of the world war again.

At the same time, Hitler promoted economic integration in Europe and exaggerated the theory of Eastern threats, which made Westerners full of hostility towards the Chinese Empire and made the Chinese Empire extremely cautious and cautious in military operations. Being an enemy in the entire Western world is a taboo in military strategists and is not in line with the national interests of the Chinese Empire.

Relying on the strong economic strength of the Chinese Empire, a war without gunpowder was launched against the German League, which became the first large-scale attack of the Chinese Empire in the Cold War era.

The economic rejuvenation of the European Community led by the German Union must first carry out post-war economic reconstruction for European countries. For people's livelihood, the German Union must be placed first, otherwise, if Hitler's Western grand harmony pattern will be self-defeating without public support. For this reason, the first project of German Union's post-war economic reconstruction is to restore people's livelihood and solve the basic living problems of European people, namely, the four basic issues of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

However, Europe was the main battlefield of World War II, and the infrastructure of various countries was basically severely damaged in the war. The light industry used for people's livelihood was gone. On the one hand, it was destroyed by the war, and on the other hand, the long-term war caused the exhaustion of troops from all countries and had to recruit strong men to supplement them, resulting in a sharp decrease in personnel engaged in agriculture and light industry. For the sake of war, countries only attach importance to the development of heavy industries, which is also one of the reasons for the abandonment of light industries.

Among them, Germany's light industry was the worst. Basically, eight out of ten disappeared. During the war, it could be supplemented from other countries. After the war, millions of Germans were sleeping on the streets without covering their clothes and eating without filling their stomachs.

For this reason, Germany had to exchange materials in the German Union's member states. Germany's heavy industrial products were exchanged for light industrial products such as food from other countries. However, other countries were not rich, resulting in Germany's heavy industrial products becoming very cheap, basically for exchange.

Even so, the entire German Union country has extremely shortage of light industrial products.

The only country that can provide rich light industrial products to the German Union countries is naturally the Chinese Empire. As the only super economic power in the world after the war, the Chinese Empire did not suffer any damage to war, so it is very rich in various materials.

In the Chinese Empire Cabinet formulated a plan for economic revenge on the German Union countries, using cheap light industrial products to plunder the heavy industrial raw materials and products of German Union countries has become an important part of the economic war.

For example, a ton of rice was sold in the Chinese Empire only 300 dragon coins. The price sold to the German Union countries doubled to 600 dragon coins. The original price of an ordinary piece of cloth was 50 dragon coins, and the original price of sold to the German Union countries doubled to 120 dragon coins. The same is true for various other light industrial products, and the price is generally more than twice as high as the price. In order to ensure that the Warsaw Pact countries are united, the Chinese Empire formulated a unified price list for national export materials within the Warsaw Pact system, so that the German Union countries could not find a second low-priced seller.

The Warsaw Pact group monopolized the price, forcing NATO countries to endure exploitation. Obviously, NATO countries did not have that much money to pay. Therefore, they could only sell their heavy industrial products and raw materials such as coal, iron, and copper at a low price. The high-quality copper ore sand with a market value of 200 dragon coins was suppressed by the Warsaw Pact countries to 90 dragon coins, causing NATO countries to suffer huge losses.

Even though they knew they were exploited, the German Union had no choice but to endure the pain and survive the most difficult period and wait until the light industry in their country recovered.

In the three years from 1944 to 1946, the Warsaw Pact countries plundered materials with a total amount of up to 2.3 trillion dragon coins from NATO countries. After the cost was sold, the direct economic losses of NATO countries reached more than 730 billion dragon coins. The Chinese Empire obtained profits of 650 billion dragon coins.

Starting from the second half of 1946, the light industrial system of the German Union countries gradually recovered, and their dependence on Warsaw Pact light industrial materials decreased significantly.

But soon, the Warsaw Pact countries led by the Chinese Empire began to dump large-scale commodities on German Union countries. Warsaw Pact goods hit the European Community market at a price of nearly 10% lower than the average cost of commodity production in NATO countries, and severely hit the light industry in German Union countries. It led to large-scale bankruptcy and bankruptcy of light industrial factories in countries across the European continent.

NATO acted quickly in response to the economic aggression of Warsaw Pact countries. It set up trade barriers throughout the European continent and imposed 200% tariffs on the goods of Warsaw Pact countries, thus protecting the light industry of European countries to a certain extent.

The Chinese Empire's economic war against the German Union included all aspects. In addition to light industry, heavy industry is also one of the key points.

After the war, although Europe had more heavy industries than light industries, it also suffered severe damage. After the post-war reconstruction, Europe needed a large number of heavy industrial products such as steel, cement, petrochemical products, etc. Although Europe itself solved most of the demand, petrochemical products such as petrochemical products were difficult to support.

During World War II, in order to break the oil monopoly of the Chinese Empire, Germany established a series of coal-chemical oil factories in China. Although these coal-chemical oils solved a large amount of German fuel demand during the war, the cost was huge, several times that of crude oil. During the war, Germany had no choice, but after the war economic reconstruction, coal-chemical oils seriously dragged down the economic recovery process because of the high cost.

Although the German Union restored the Romanian oil zone and Tsarist Russia also produced oil in China, it could not meet the oil consumption of the entire Europe. Therefore, this provided an opportunity for the Chinese Empire to manipulate oil again to invade Europe.

The Chinese Empire first manipulated global oil production and delivered it to Europe at low prices. It once caused the cost of importing oil in Europe to be less than half of local oil and two-thirds of German coal-chemical oil prices, causing many countries to abandon coal-chemical oil projects and even stop importing oil from Romania and the former Soviet Union, resulting in large-scale bankruptcy of European coal-chemical oil factories, and Romanian crude oil companies lost millions of dragon coins every day.

By 1946, Europe's oil demand relied on 90% of its international imports. As a result, the Chinese Empire once again manipulated international oil production cuts, raised oil prices, and continued to exploit European countries.

After several years of post-war reconstruction, the German Union countries have been seriously exploited by the Warsaw Pact countries led by the Chinese Empire, but the economies of various countries have been restored. The economic model of German firefighting former Soviet Union was developing very fast.

In 1947, Germany's GDP reached 61.5 billion dragon coins, returning to the pre-war level. Although it is still more than seven times lower than the huge GDP of the 455 billion dragon coins of the Chinese Empire, the world's number one Chinese Empire, the speed of Germany's economic development is obvious to all.

Faced with the rapid rise of the German economy, the Chinese Empire naturally raised its vigilance.
