Chapter 324: A Large-Scale Infrastructure Project That Kills Two Birds With One Stone

During the days Yu Hua remained in Sichuan Province.

Many people from factories that had migrated from the Coastal Region to Sichuan Province also sought out the Chuan-Kang Pacification Office.

These factories that had moved into Sichuan Province needed factory buildings, and all of this required the approval of the Chuan-Kang Pacification Office.

Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua, the two of them only wanted to be responsible for military affairs.

Regarding the construction of these factory buildings and the matter of enclosing land, the two of them had no interest at all.

Therefore, for these matters, Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua sought out Yu Hua.

After the representative from the Soviet Union communicated with their home country, under the instructions of Stalin.

In order to avoid unexpected situations, the Soviets had no choice but to swallow this loss. After all, for this thing called bristles, currently only the Republic of China had a large output, and the Soviets also had a large demand, so they had to get the bristles back to their country as quickly as possible.

Whether it was discussing cooperation with the Sichuan Army or providing aid to the Nanjing Command, all of this was a consideration of the Soviets' national interests.

There was no other way; he also tried his best to handle these matters.

The international environment was unfavorable to the Republic of China; now that the Soviets were providing timely help and the two sides had cooperation, this also gave many high-ranking military and political officials a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

As long as the refugees had food to eat and society was stable, no major chaos would occur.

The Nanjing Command in Hankou felt that this cooperation was a success and that it was a matter very much worth celebrating.

Large-scale infrastructure could also accelerate the construction of Sichuan Province; it was almost killing two birds with one stone.

Under the two men's persistent questioning, Yu Hua deduced that the coast of Zhongtu would be blockaded by the Japanese Army this year.

If sea transport could not be used, that meant the coastal cities would fall, and the coast of Zhongtu would be blockaded by the Japanese Army.

The Sichuan Army's marching column stopped!

Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua, seeing the Soviet Union making contact with them, were very satisfied with the discussion regarding this cooperation.

The Anti-Japanese War!

Because the Sichuan Army's performance in the Songhu Region and the Jinyang Region had greatly attracted the attention of the Soviet Union.

This resulted in Yu Hua not even having time to accompany his wife.

Factories moving into Sichuan Province were given the green light all the way, to let these factories resume work and production as quickly as possible.

By then, if sea transport were used, all supplies would be unable to reach the shore.

This war still had to continue to be fought.

When the Soviet representative was in contact with the Sichuan Army, people from the Nanjing Command also made contact with the Soviets. After a series of negotiations between the two sides, the Soviets decided to provide 10 Divisions' worth of weaponry to the Nanjing Command in Hankou.

Large-scale infrastructure, using work as a form of relief, allowed the refugees flowing into Sichuan Province to have a bite to eat.

The Chinese side needed weaponry and Industrial Equipment, while the Soviets needed the Chinese side's agricultural and sideline products, especially bristles and Tung Oil, which were things that could be equated to arms.

This made Stalin very interested in the Sichuan Army.

The Sichuan Army also had to leave Sichuan again; after all, Liu Dashuai had said that the Japanese Army would not withdraw from the national borders.

Upon hearing this, Yu Hua thought, damn it, dragging it out to '39, the coast would have already fallen, so what is there to talk about.

He had Pan Wenhua and Deng Xihou make the Soviet people deliver the goods as quickly as possible.

This thing called bristles!

Currently, only Zhongtu had a large output, and furthermore, if one wanted bristles, one had to come to Zhongtu to snap them up.

Eight o'clock at night!

The Sichuan Army would not return to Sichuan!

Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua, in order to see off the Sichuan Army as they left Sichuan.

Ever since the Japanese Army took Jinling, the little devils were very dissatisfied with the German officers remaining at the Nanjing Command.

The Sichuan Army had suddenly risen within the Republic of China Army and annihilated the majority of the Japanese Army's effective strength.

Went to talk with the representative from the Soviet Union!

However, this time the Soviet representative mainly wanted to discuss matters with the Sichuan Army.

It was not just factory construction, but also some schools moving into the Southwest Hinterland, as well as refugees, and so on.

After this batch of representatives arrived in Sichuan Province, He Guoguang and Kang Ze immediately acted in the name of the Nanjing Command.

As soon as the radio was turned on, several telegrams from Liu Wenhui were received.

Because the time stipulated by Yu Hua was tight, the Soviet representative was still somewhat dissatisfied and hoped to drag it out until 1939.

Pan Wenhua and Deng Xihou were suddenly somewhat shocked upon learning this.

If it were switched to land transport, that would mean high costs.

Seeing that the Soviet Union wanted to use sea transport, Yu Hua personally discussed it with the Soviet representative.

Do everything according to the Sichuan Army's requirements!

Now that Germany's power was expanding in Europe, the Soviet Union was under great pressure.

At the same time, Sichuan Province also began large-scale infrastructure, building bridges and roads, and constructing houses.

In order to complete these matters, Yu Hua immediately established a Chuan-Kang Pacification Office Construction Committee.

After the Communications Soldier saw the content of the telegram, they also had a headache.

This entire batch of equipment was for producing weaponry!

But, the Soviet Union needed the Sichuan Army to provide them with a large amount of bristles.

While calling them allies, you were actually supporting Zhongtu all along. Due to the condemnation from the little devils, the German instructors remaining in China were all recalled to their country, and the two sides also severed all cooperation.

Due to the troops setting out, on the Chuan-Shaan Highway, the Sichuan Army's column maintained radio silence, which was also for the sake of secrecy.

Although the weaponry and Industrial Equipment and so on were aid, this did not mean that the Republic of China Government did not spend a single cent; the weaponry and Industrial Equipment were all paid for to the Soviets with products like bristles, Tung Oil, and tea.

For both sides, this was a mutually beneficial and win-win good thing.

This time, following the troops, preparing to send this unit to the border of Shaanxi Province.

Now, using sea transport was, for the Soviet Union, a lower-cost option.

However, in order to deal with the people from the Nanjing Command, they also dispatched representatives to handle He Guoguang, Kang Ze, and the others.

After Yu Hua learned of this matter.

He directly and firmly demanded to use land transport; sea transport was out of the question.

Furthermore, they could not use sea transport; if they were to go, they would go by land transport.

Yu Hua indicated that it was acceptable.

At the very least, the Nanjing Command still had international aid and had not become completely isolated!

After the representative from the Soviet Union left!

The factories that had relocated to Sichuan Province had also largely finished constructing their factory buildings. A large number of factories in Sichuan Province resumed operations and restored production to support the War of Resistance, and the common people were all shining and heating up at their respective posts!

With the previous example of the Chuan-Kang Pacification Office killing the chicken to warn the monkey.

They strongly condemned the Little Mustache, saying that the Little Mustache did not observe martial ethics.

The factory Bosses who had relocated to Sichuan Province rode in small cars day after day, running to Yu Hua's courtyard.

At the same time, there was also a telegram from Han Fuqu.

Seeing that the Sichuan Army was firm, the representatives from the Soviet Union indicated that they needed to discuss it with their home country.

Let him handle it!

The two of them believed that Adjutant Yu would certainly be able to do it well.

This time, the representative from the Soviet Union came to Sichuan Province for no other reason than to support the Sichuan Army with a batch of factory equipment.

The various directives issued by the Chuan-Kang Pacification Office were fully implemented, and the large-scale infrastructure construction in Sichuan Province proceeded very smoothly.

There were a great many matters, both large and small.

Sea transport is fine!

That is, the Soviet Union must deliver the goods to the Sichuan Army before October 1938, and the Sichuan Army would also deliver the Bristles to the Soviet Union at the same time.

The vanguard of the Sichuan Army, three newly organized Brigades, had already moved out of Sichuan along the Chuan-Shaan Highway.

While the construction in Sichuan Province was in full swing, the Soviet Union dispatched a representative to Zhongtu.

After the representative from the Soviet Union learned of this, he was initially dissatisfied.

This content... is it something a lowly Communications Soldier like him should be looking at?!

When the telegram was delivered into the hands of Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua!

The two of them were also stunned for a moment, their eyes wide!

Pan Wenhua looked at Deng Xihou, wondering if Han Fuqu had water in his brain?!
