Chapter 300 Goals
"His Excellency Prime Minister, do you want an oil field larger than Assam?"
A few days later, Yang Feng said to Jinnah, who was invited while admiring the galloping posture of the leopard tank.
Even if he was a veteran politician, after hearing his words, Jinnah couldn't help but tremble slightly. He wanted, of course he wanted it. What is an oil field? That is the future of a country. Nehru had no choice but to look back if he was injured millions of people. Isn't it just for an oil field? Musuo dared to fight the Ming Dynasty alone, just for an oil field? Almost all young and middle-aged men in Aceh went to the battlefield, but for an oil field?
Of course, he was not stunned by the pie falling from the sky. He was also at the level of a thousand-year-old fox. You don’t have to guess that this oil field is not that easy to take, otherwise it would not be his turn, so Yang Feng accepted it with a smile.
"His Excellency, can you say more specific?"
He said with a smile.
"It's very simple. I need you to occupy Gujarat because this oil field is in Mumbai!"
Yang Feng said.
This is the goal of his next battle. Mumbai, Shanghai in Tianzhu, the largest oil field in Tianzhu, Mumbai coastal and offshore oil fields, this oil field and Assam oil field, which together are almost all the oil in Tianzhu in later generations in history.
"I will send out three brigades, including one such a leopard tank brigade, and then we will work together to capture Gujarat, the territory belongs to you, the oilfield belongs to me, the profit is 50% per year, plus all tax exemptions, but you will be responsible for the safety in the future."
Yang Feng said.
"make a deal!"
Jinna said without any hesitation.
"Okay, refreshing!"
Yang Feng said with satisfaction.
The distribution method of 50% has begun to become mainstream, and was first started by the Americans in Venezuela. Last year, they reached the same distribution ratio as Neizhi. Currently, Persia, the largest oil-producing country in the Middle East, is on the verge of war with the British because of this problem.
There was the territory of the Sun, but if the annual profits were added up with the taxes they handed over to Britain and Persia respectively, the Persians probably did not even have 30% of what they got. As Britain's national strength declined, the Persians who bet on the United States could no longer tolerate this distribution system. They directly declared nationalization and expelled the Anglo-Iranian oil.
In retaliation, the British Navy fleet blocked the ports of Persia and imposed sanctions on Persia. Tankers transporting crude oil from Persia were intercepted, citing that before the franchise of the 1993 BP franchise expired. Persian crude oil was all the property of the British-Iranian oil, including one of the Ming tankers, but fortunately, Yang Feng released it again after negotiations, but he could not buy Persian crude oil in the future.
The embargo lasted for several years until the Persian hardline Prime Minister Mosatai was overthrown by the United States and Britain. Therefore, in order to ensure domestic demand, Yang Feng must strive to expand the supply source. He launched this battle not only for training troops, but more importantly for oil.
Chemical fibers and plastics have almost become the main pillars of the Ming Dynasty's economy, and both of them are big oil-consuming companies. One ton of polyethylene requires ten tons of crude oil, while the Ming Dynasty's polyethylene production exceeded two million tons last year, which is just a fuel-consuming project. In fact, the Ming Dynasty's economic surge was almost entirely based on oil. Last year, it consumed 60 million tons of crude oil, and the crude oil consumption was second only to the United States, ranking second in the world, and even surpassed the Soviet Union.
But this is far from enough. With the popularity of such products and the increasing popularity of automobiles, the consumption of crude oil in the Ming Dynasty will continue to grow rapidly. According to the current situation, it will exceed 100 million tons in at most 505 years, and the output he himself can use in his own country only 20 million tons.
Can he do not go out to grab the oil?
Cooperation including North African oil fields is also for this purpose.
The battle goal was determined. He didn't need to be taken care of the rest, and he just gave it to the General Staff of the two countries. However, before that, the Ming army that participated in the war had to be transferred to Pakistan.
Pakistan has always supported it alone. There were no Ming army ground troops there, including the Air Force. The Pakistani Air Force has enough strength to protect itself. Now their front-line fighter jets are all Kunpeng versions of swords, and even the next-level ones are also British meteors. They have always maintained a quality advantage over the Tianzhu Air Force, which is mainly composed of MiG 15, La 11 and even La 9. Therefore, the Ming army has only one small task force stationed in Karachi Port to prevent the Tianzhu Navy from attacking the coastal areas of Pakistan.
The latter's naval strength was too weak, with only a few small gunboats and World War II frigates, but it would soon be strengthened, because Jinnah had already booked the old-fashioned warships that the Ming army would soon begin to retire. The first batch of retired were the three Soviet warships, the Kalinin cruiser, the Enthusiastic and the Linlie destroyers. Their next home was Pakistan. With these three warships joining, although they do not have the advantage, they are enough to compete with the Indian Navy. The latter also picked up the Soviet Union's junk and several old-fashioned destroyers from World War II.
Jinnah came this time and signed a series of military purchase agreements. In addition to these three warships, there were also leopard tanks, of course, monkey versions, and there would be no composite armor, Hercules transport aircraft, Pixiu helicopters, including armed models, and fifty Wind Chasing Fighters were added. These arms were purchased with loans from the Bank of the Ming Empire.
In fact, Pakistan's finances were also supported by loans from the Ming Empire Bank at this time. The country's economic situation was also very bad. So far, they owed the Ming Empire Bank more than 300 million yuan. As an agricultural country, it is difficult to pay off the loan. Jinnah urgently needed this oil field to use its income to repay debts. They were not as good as Assam in this regard. Fortunately, Assam had oil fields, traditional black tea, and a large amount of Chinese business investment, and the economic level was second to none in the subcontinent.
Stimulated by this oil field, Jinnah soberly ordered fifty tiger sharks. After negotiations with the British, he purchased thirty Canberras from Kunpeng Company.
The Kunpeng version of Canberra also has a performance that exceeds the original version. Currently, the original version provided by the Britons is the Evan MK101 engine, but the Kunpeng version is the Tamron II engine, and its performance is equivalent to the MK6 equipped with the Evan 109 engine. Of course, you can't buy the bad ones if you have good ones. Besides, the British Electric Company didn't bother to produce it for others at this time. They had to first ensure the needs of the British Air Force.
"His Excellency, when are you going to end this war?"
While visiting the assembly workshop of Hercules transport aircraft, Jinnah asked Yang Feng with a smile.
What he meant is whether it should be over after we conquer Mumbai? After all, he has worked very hard. So far, the Pakistani army has suffered more than one million civilian casualties in the two wars. In fact, they have always been the main force on the subcontinental battlefield. The Ming army is more of a guarantee of air supremacy and ground as assault forces, but the Pakistani army is doing the real dirty and tiring work.
"I don't care if Nehru wants!"
Yang Feng said indifferently.
Of course Nehru would not be willing. If they really stole Mumbai, even if they didn't know there was an oil field there, Nehru would never lose this city. The four major industrial cities in India were originally New Delhi, the second, Kolkata, the third, and the fourth. New Delhi was almost blown up in the last war, Kolkata was stolen, and Madras was bombarded by the two Chinese Yanhuang ships, and Mumbai was still intact. If the city was stolen, Nehru would be playing tricks.
"We can force him to do it."
Jinna said.
“Do you have any good plans?”
Yang Feng asked.
"It's very simple. Don't you think our front line is very close to New Delhi?"
Jinnah said with a smile.
"Ah, this is indeed a good solution, but before that, we need to make sufficient preparations. It is best to start again at the beginning of next year. At that time, we will probably have three Leopard tank brigades. I think such assault forces, probably no army can stop them in this world, and my first batch of real armed helicopters can also be put into service. We can give Nehru a small surprise."
Yang Feng said.
He understood Jinnah's plan. To conquer Mumbai in the south, Nehru would definitely do his best to regain the city. At that time, he took the opportunity to launch a raid in the north and attack New Delhi. As long as he fought to New Delhi, the war would have to end if it did not end.
I have to say that this is indeed the best solution, but to do this, you must gather the most powerful assault power. A leopard tank brigade is not enough. Nehru has a large number of tanks on his hands. No matter how good the leopard performance is, it cannot withstand the pack of wolves. Its relatively weak side armor makes it dangerous once it falls into a melee.
In fact, if you talk about performance advantages, then the centurion in the Ming army is enough now. Although the performance is not enough to have an absolute advantage over Stalin 2, it is an overwhelming advantage against t34/85. However, even on the battlefield, there are still centurions destroyed by the latter because they are trapped in a melee and are penetrated by t34/85. The side armor of the leopard tank cannot even catch up with the centurion!
With just one brigade, it is a bit unlucky to fight to New Delhi. What's more, this tank is fast and it's difficult to fight with the centurion. The former's off-road speed is faster than the latter's fastest road speed!
The three brigades are the safest. Four hundred and fifty leopard tanks, on the northern plains of India, rushed at a high speed of more than 40 kilometers, and could form a steel torrent that would destroy everything, and then drink the Mayamuna River and drive into the Lahore Gate.
"First of the People's Republic of China, the Volunteers began to fight back."
The two were talking, and Hu Hao hurried to Yang Feng and said.
"Ha, it's finally started, where is it?"
Yang Feng said.
"Hengcheng!"
Hu Hao said. (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
