After solving the problems of executors and funds, the rest is logistical matters.For large-scale military operations that may last for several years, combat materials such as ordnance, ammunition, food, grass and tents are the most important supplies.
Some of these materials can be purchased nearby. For example, military rations can be purchased in countries such as Annan and Champa, which are rich in rice. Some combat ships can also be built in the shipyards of Cam Ranh Port and Manila Port.
However, military products such as guns and ammunition, whose origin is strictly limited, can basically only be shipped from various arsenals located on Hainan Island.Considering that the future battlefield is very far away from Hainan Island, and it is difficult to complete immediate supplies, it is necessary to prepare a considerable amount of inventory for the various troops in the South China Sea before the operation.
However, Beks, who was in charge of industry, was still on his way back to the south at this time, and these people present could not discuss the specific details of the issue of arms production.The only way is for the Ministry of National Defense to collect specific requirements from the various troops participating in the operation in the South China Sea, and then hand them over to relevant departments to formulate production plans.
There is no need to worry about the production tasks in this area. There are still a large amount of stocks of all kinds of ordnance and ammunition in the arsenal in the inland of Hainan Island. At that time, a part of the stock can be allocated to meet the needs of the operation.
So far, the executive committee has basically agreed to take a new round of expansion actions in the South China Sea, leaving only some specific implementation details to be further discussed.However, these details do not affect the overall situation. As long as the executive committee makes a decision, the war machine will soon start to operate again.
After the meeting, everyone left one after another, Tao Donglai stopped Ning Qi, saying that there was still something to discuss.
"Since the matter has been settled, you should take some time to grasp the relevant propaganda work yourself." Tao Donglai tapped his fingers on the table, and he said while organizing his thoughts: "The South China Sea has been peaceful for a long time. Time has passed, and the public's acceptance of the war may be lower than before, and we must guide the direction of public opinion, and don't let the domestic public sentiment hold us back."
Ning Qi nodded and said, "I'll hold a meeting with the editor-in-chiefs of various newspapers in the future, and arrange the work. What do you think is a better tone this time?"
Tao Donglai said: "Let's take escorting commercial shipping as the theme! Whether it's pirates or Western colonial armed forces, in short, set a target. The so-called righteousness is in hand, and the world is mine. It is necessary to clarify the actual situation that actions will bring to our country. interests, it is easier to gain the support of the people.”
Ning Qi said: "This topic is good. Since commercial shipping is mentioned, we should also publicize the issue of war bonds by the way. In this way, private capital can also smoothly contribute to the purchase of bonds and intervene in the expansion of foreign territories. .”
"It makes sense." Tao Donglai agreed with Ning Qi's proposal: "Individuals and institutions that are actively contributing funds can also pull out a wave of publicity, so that the public can see the benefits of fully supporting the country. About this aspect Resources, you can discuss it with Schneider first, he must have some reliable customers there."
"Don't worry, Schneider will definitely take the initiative to come to me first." Ning Qi replied confidently.
Tao Donglai suddenly said: "That's right, if he wants to sell bonds, he must shout loudly first, and he can't do it without your cooperation!"
However, Schneider did not regard the cooperation with Ning Qi as the top priority at the moment, but first found Yan Chujie after the meeting, and wanted to further discuss with him the specific matters of issuing war bonds.
"I want to know what the funding target of the Ministry of Defense is, so that I can have a clear amount on my side when formulating the issuance plan." Schneider explained the purpose of the visit succinctly.
Yan Chujie said: "According to our meeting at Cam Ranh Port, the expansion operations in the South China Sea region may last for several years, and the annual military expenditure required will be between 1000 and [-] million. We hope that the funds raised through the issuance of war bonds The funds are at least half of this amount."
Schneider raised his brows and said, "You also said in the previous meeting that there is actually no opponent in the South China Sea region that is as powerful as us. At most, there will be some local armed conflicts. Does it cost so much money?"
"This is the estimated consumption without a major battle." Yan Chujie explained: "The situation in the South China Sea is completely different from fighting on the mainland. Considering the difficulty of supplies and troop mobilization, the cost of carrying out military operations is higher than that on the mainland. The area is two to three times higher, and the farther away from the mainland, the higher the cost of action. If there is no big enough benefit, no one is willing to take the initiative to attack. This is one of the reasons why these troops in the South China Sea have chosen to hide their strength and bide their time in recent years. "
Schneider said: "But as far as I know, these troops in the South China Sea do not completely rely on the military funds allocated by the Ministry of Defense to maintain their operations?"
Yan Chujie nodded and said: "The military expenditure allocated by the Ministry of National Defense is limited, which is actually not enough to maintain the current scale of troops stationed in various parts of the South China Sea. Therefore, a considerable part of the expenditure is actually borne by the local finance, which is essentially a local army. Qian Tiandun's troops are in Liaodong When he was stationed, it was actually of the same nature, so when he led his troops to the south, part of the special operations division stayed there."
Schneider said: "Then the military expenses after Qian Tiandun went south can only be fully borne by the Ministry of National Defense?"
Yan Chujie shook his head slightly and said, "Not entirely. When Qian Tiandun applied to be transferred to the South China Sea, in addition to proposing a plan to expand the territory, he also promised to bear part of the military expenses of the special warfare division and all transportation expenses during the southward relocation. Military expenses The standard is calculated according to the period when he was stationed in Liaodong, the Ministry of National Defense paid [-]%, and he himself took [-]%."
"But you said that part of the special operations division's establishment remained in Liaodong, so after being transferred to the South China Sea, his troops were out of pay." Schneider keenly pointed out the problem.
Yan Chujie said: "Of course we have considered this situation, so the military expenses and supplies allocated to the special warfare division have also been reduced accordingly. It is unlikely that the salary will be empty."
Schneider replied: "Since you have visited Jinlan Port in person, there should be no problem. However, Qian Tiandun has some capital. Even if it is only [-]% of the military expenditure, according to the standard of special warfare divisions, it is by no means a small amount." number."
Yan Chujie said with a smile: "He has worked so hard in the north for so many years, and it is not for nothing. He should have some shares in the number one industries in the north, and his income must be good. It is probably better than most of the people in Sanya. Everyone is better. It's just that he has been serving in the army and is far away in the north, so he doesn't have many opportunities to show his financial strength to the outside world."
Schneider nodded, deeply agreeing with what Yan Chujie said.
