    "Ji Liang, it's already half past five in the morning!"

    When Chen Jiliang stood on the deck and looked into the distance, a voice came from behind him.

    Chen Jiliang knew who it was without looking back. Of course it was his chief of staff Chen Yongqin.

    Chen Yongqin, the former captain of the Haizhe, later sank Jiangyin during the Battle of Jiangyin, blocking the waterway.

    Later, Chen Yongqin¡¯s fate was similar to that of Chen Jiliang. After the merger of Chongqing and Jingnan, he took the initiative to accept reorganization.

    He was previously a colonel staff officer of the First Fleet of the Eastern Navy, and this time he is the chief of staff of this fleet.

    And Chen Jiliang and Chen Yongqin can be said to be old comrades-in-arms, fighting side by side in the Jiangyin naval battle.

    "I know. Look, the sky is starting to get slightly brighter."

    Chen Jiliang said as he looked at the horizon where a bright light appeared.

    The climate here is tropical, with only rainy and dry seasons. The winter on the eastern mainland does not affect him.

    "It's time for us to enter the port. Chen Xueming, commander of the 1st Marine Division, just sent a telegram. They are all ready!"

    Chen Yongqin said softly.

    "Okay! In that case, let's order our warships to enter the port! We have been here for several hours, and we haven't even seen the French navy's patrol ships. It seems that they are really in decline!"

    Chen Jiliang felt a little ridiculous when he said this. When they came here in the early morning, they were actually ready to fight the French navy, and were ready to rush into the harbor overnight to capture them once a war broke out.

    After all, the French Navy's strength here is not very good, there are only a few destroyers and not even a light cruiser.  It was only after arriving here that they discovered that the French navy here was nonsense.

    They stayed here for several hours and saw nothing.

    Chen Yongqin seems normal.

    "There's nothing surprising about this. These Gauls have been defeated by rats in northern Southeast Asia. Besides, their homeland has fallen. How much time do they have to fight?"

    At 5:50 in the morning on November 5, 1941, Chen Jiliang led the Eastern Fleet into the inner harbor of Cam Ranh Bay.  When I entered, I thought there would be at least a small battle.

    It was only when they rushed to the port that they discovered that the French navy soldiers had just weighed anchor, and even the warship had not yet left the port.

    What I didn¡¯t say, this was simply a waste of money. There was almost no big battle, and several French Navy destroyers became Chen Jiliang¡¯s prisoners.

    The Marine Corps also began to land here, and the entire operation went smoothly.

    But this also shows that Gaul itself has fallen, and its troops in overseas territories have long been unwilling to fight and are in panic all day long.

    This also led to their low morale. The soldiers often stayed away from the camp at night and stayed outside the camp.

    In fact, not only the soldiers below, but also the officers above have become like this.

    When the Marine Corps successfully landed at Cam Ranh Bay, Zhou Weiguo was paying attention to relevant documents.

    Since it stopped accepting orders from Geely Lao, the economic development of the East has not stagnated, nor has it even gone backwards.

    Taking off with the help of World War II, this is only the first step.  After the economic development driven by war wealth, people's living standards continued to improve and improve.

    Naturally, domestic demand will be boosted.

    Domestic demand has been boosted, the economy continues to develop at a rapid pace, and as people have money, railways, highways and other infrastructure are being built across the country.

    These projects are constantly creating jobs and creating wealth.

    Now it can be said that the economic development of the East is finally on the right track. Just boosting domestic demand can keep the economy of the East rising for many years.

    In addition, there are industrial problems. Now Zhou Weiguo has begun to gradually abandon the system step by step and use his own industrial zones to attack the needs of the army.

    Zhou Weiguo knew that the system was just a crutch for Dongfang, and now Dongfang was like a baby that had just started to walk.  Before, Dongfang was not strong enough, so he needed the system's crutches to help Dongfang walk.

    Now with the development, Dongfang has begun to become stronger, and the crutch of the system can be slowly thrown away.

    Perhaps in many cases, the system will become an arm of the development of the East, instead of relying on the system for everything as in the past.

    A country, an industrial country, if it wants to develop, it cannot rely solely on the system.

      Relying entirely on the system, the country's heavy industry will be in a sluggish state or even wither. The decline of heavy industry, or even industry, is not only bad for a country's overall strength, but will also create a large number of unemployed people.

    The East is a country with a large population, and solving the employment problem is also a difficult problem.

    "First of all, Minister of Industry Zhou Jiachen, Minister of Transportation Li Quanxin, Minister of Education Cai Heqing, and Minister of Commerce and Trade Wang Xinzhi want to see you!"

    While Zhou Weiguo was looking through the documents submitted by the ministers, secretary Xi Hanping walked in and said.

    "Oh? They are here, let them all come in!"

    "yes!"

    Soon, these people walked into Zhou Weiguo's office.

    Zhou Weiguo¡¯s office does not look luxurious, but it looks grand.  He doesn't like flashy things too much, maybe this is because he was born in the military.

    "You all have a seat!"

    "yes!"

    Zhou Weiguo was not in a hurry to speak, and was still looking through the documents slowly.

    After a while, he spoke up: "Minister Zhou, you said that so far, our country's annual steel output is 38 million tons, but why has the output of other industries not increased?

    For example, according to the information you gave here, 800,000 G43 semi-automatic rifles can be manufactured in a year.  This quantity is quite large, but the output is obviously not consistent with industrial capacity.

    Mi Jian¡¯s annual steel production this year is about 75 million tons, but others can produce more than one million tons a year.  Go down and think about these issues yourself. Don't explain anything to me, I just want the results!  "

    "Yes! First seat!"

    Zhou Jiachen said stiffly.

    Zhou Weiguo didn't say anything else. Originally, Dongfang's annual steel production of 38 million tons this year could have been promoted to the second place in the world.

    However, because this time the will is different from the historical will, this time the will began to integrate the industrial power of the entire Europe, its steel production was 40 million tons, instead of the historical 21 million tons, a full double  .

    Zhou Weiguo knew that once the integration of Mustache was completed, the industrial power that would emerge from this old industrial base in Europe would not be much lower than that of Mi Jian.

    This year, Mi Jian¡¯s annual steel output is about 75 million tons, while Dongfang¡¯s difference is 37 million tons, almost double the gap. This lets Zhou Weiguo know that Dongfang still has a long way to go.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
