Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry.

Chapter 324: Response and Preparation

As for this time and space, Ren Zhong has actually been secretly pushing forward preparations.

Although the trajectory of this time and space has changed slightly, Longguo relied on its own strength to drive away the Japanese devils, and its strength is naturally countless times stronger than the original time and space of the main world.

However, the world situation did not change much. On the contrary, with the containment and efforts of the Dragon Country, the Rogue Eagle suffered less losses and became stronger. By the end of the war, it had at least two-thirds of the world's naval power! Maybe even more!
At this time, the Rogue Eagle Navy may be the strongest in the history of the entire Blue Star!
从驱逐舰来说，就有高达300艘左右，156艘排水量2500吨左右的弗莱彻级驱逐舰，55艘排水量2800吨左右的萨姆纳级驱逐舰和96艘排水量3500吨左右的基林级驱逐舰！

In addition, there are 10 battleships, 48 ​​cruisers, 498 frigates, 203 submarines, and more than 50 aircraft carriers (including 15 large main aircraft carriers, 9 light aircraft carriers, more than 30 escort aircraft carriers converted from cargo ships, and 11 large aircraft carriers under construction). The total strength of the navy has reached 385 million, including 50 Marines!
With such a huge navy, even all other countries in the world combined are not enough to defeat him.

The Rogue Eagle's army is just as strong as the navy. After several years of development, there are tens of thousands of tanks and artillery, and the total force is over 8 million! In addition, it has nearly fighters and transport planes of various types. The military strength of the Rogue Eagle is at its peak compared to other countries.

Only Ren Zhong has such strong confidence of winning when facing a country with such a huge military force. In this period, there are really few people who dare to say so confidently that they can win!

Staff Officer Ye was the second person who believed it firmly.

Because he trusts and respects others without thinking.

Ordinary people do not feel much about the changes in the world situation. Not many of them even have the shadow of the approaching war, and they are full of energy running around on various construction sites.

But for the decision-makers of Dragon Country, this decision is as difficult to make as in another time and space! It is even more difficult.

After all, the domestic situation is developing very well now. It can be said that it is the fastest development stage in the past 5,000 years. Such a good situation will inevitably be interrupted once a war breaks out.

As the saying goes, the barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Today's Republic is no longer barefoot. There are too many planned blueprints that are being turned into reality one by one.

On the other hand, Rogue Eagle is as powerful as ever, and is worthy of the title of one of the two superpowers on Blue Star, with tens of millions of field troops, tens of thousands of fighter planes, thousands of warships of various types, and the strongest industrial capacity on Blue Star!

Its GDP accounts for 56% of the world’s total, its industrial output value accounts for more than 40% of the world’s total, and its gold reserves account for 75% of the world’s total!

If we use volume to make an intuitive and forced comparison of comprehensive strength, then the Rogue Eagle's strength is like a basketball, while our current strength is merely equivalent to a ping-pong ball!

The disparity in comprehensive strength is so huge!

If we use rational thinking to make decisions, few people can confront the Blue Star superpower face to face under such a huge disparity!

So when Staff Officer Ye passed on Ren Zhong's opinions and suggestions on resolutely preparing for war, many people in the decision-making level had very different reactions.

Most people think it is too early to express their views now. In fact, no one has any idea about the powerful Rogue Eagle!

So avoiding a fight is the best strategy. Some people even suggest that we try to make less noise and just pretend not to see the trivial things in our neighbors' homes.

However, the leader who holds the final decision-making power has a very clear understanding of the nature of this war through the mist of history!

This is a battle to establish a nation!

And it is a decisive battle that must be fought!

The leader and Ren Zhong share the same views on the strategic level!

Because from a strategic perspective of the decades of history, we have no room for retreat this time. Once we retreat, the rest of the strategic maneuvering space and initiative will be completely lost on the peninsula, and even the confidence we just regained from the Kwantung Army will be lost!
Therefore, in the eyes of the leader, this battle must be fought.

And we must win!

Ren Zhong was in charge of the debate in the court, and he had his own channels to prepare for the work.

He was the first person to study the evolution of the situation, so it was impossible for him to be unprepared in this regard. But he soon encountered a problem. "Mr. Ren, the 3,000 tons of cotton we purchased are now stuck at the port and cannot be transported back!"

The person in charge of clothing anxiously found Ren Zhong and reported.

"What's going on? Don't be anxious, drink some water, and then tell me the details slowly." Ren Zhong looked at the person in charge and asked him to drink some water before speaking.

Ren Zhong's preparations were first about clothing. Winter was coming, so he had to prepare enough winter clothes! Ren Zhong would never allow the history of the ice sculpture company to appear in this time and space!
However, the domestic frontier cotton fields have not yet been developed on a large scale, and the domestic cotton production cannot even meet the normal level to meet the needs of the people, so Ren Zhong asked people to purchase cotton from America. Ren Zhong had given instructions on this matter as early as when the North just started.

But it's still a step too late.

Now the rogue eagle has regarded cotton as a strategic material and has imposed a blockade on the two major cotton markets in North America and South America at the same time. Even the cotton loaded in containers has been transported to the ports for replenishment in the Pacific Ocean, but they have been notified that they can no longer be shipped!

It disrupted Ren Zhong’s plan in one fell swoop!

Cotton spinning mills and garment factories had already freed up production capacity and were ready to go all out to produce millions of thickened cotton jackets, but now all that has gone to waste.

Ren Zhong frowned.

The Rogue Eagle was blocking the transportation of supplies at this time, and it really hit him hard!
There are still more than two months before the Incheon landing. We originally thought that once the cotton was in place, we could successfully complete the production of cotton clothes, ensuring that when winter comes, the volunteer soldiers will have a warm reinforced cotton coat to wear.

But now the Rogue Eagle has directly shattered Ren Zhong's fantasy, and the route of importing cotton from abroad is no longer feasible.

Although Ren Zhong also wanted to find General Warren Smith who was still alive, this matter flashed through his mind. Even from his own standpoint, he had no reason to make things difficult for the other party.

This matter is too sensitive.

Not only might you end up getting the other party into trouble, but you might also fail to get the job done.

Ren Zhong had to bring this issue back to the main world.

"You are stupid! Aren't down jackets good? Why do you have to hang yourself on the tree of cotton jackets? Sheepskin jackets can also be used. If there are a lot of sheep, get sheepskin jackets!"

A suggestion from a silly netizen made Ren Zhong's eyes light up!
Although the number of chickens, ducks and geese raised in the world of Bright Sword is far from comparable to that in the main world, Ren Zhong has really promoted these poultry that are easy to develop. When they were in the base, this was already an important source of meat for everyone.

In addition, grain production has recovered to a self-sufficient level faster than in history, and it is common in rural areas to raise poultry in exchange for oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

Duck down and goose down!
Nowadays, the production of nylon fabrics has been achieved on a large scale earlier than in history. This is Ren Zhong's killer weapon that has been detonated in the clothing industry in advance, and it is also the key material for the large-scale export of clothing. Therefore, there is no shortage of fabrics for down jackets, and they are basically ready-made. The next step is to collect and process enough duck down and goose down.

The Bright Sword World certainly had no solution in this regard, but in the main world, Ren Zhong directly acquired a duck down and goose down processing factory, copied the entire process and equipment, and began to frantically expand duck down and goose down processing factories in the Bright Sword World, opening dozens of them in all directions!

Under the coordination of Staff Officer Ye, all the adult ducks and geese were gathered together to sacrifice their lives for the country. At the call, every household with ducks and geese caught them for meat without hesitation, and then sent their feathers to the township, which were then concentrated in the county for initial processing before being sent to the province to be made into duck down and goose down!

Then they were sent to several large clothing factories to be processed into down snow suit samples provided by Ren Zhong, which are windproof, cold-resistant, waterproof and oil-proof, and filled with 95% down!
Plus sheepskin gloves that allow for flexible operation of guns, as well as sheepskin hats, leather boots and warm down sleeping bags.

A brand new five-piece suit of warm down sheepskin for individual soldiers. Staff Officer Ye said it was good after trying on the samples!

Thanks to the systematic production chain, before the Northern Army's turning point in Ren Zhong's estimation, nearly one million sets had been prepared for the secretly prepared volunteer soldiers!

Then they were secretly stockpiled in several pre-selected cities in the north.
