Holy Roman Empire
Chapter 1033 "Entrepreneur" VS "Mothworm"
Failing to disrupt the rhythm of the British, Franz was not disappointed, which was expected.
If you irritate the British and follow up, it is not John Bull.Changing the navy is almost the same, no matter how exciting the army equipment, the British will not be blind.
It's the same as the exam.If you are a scumbag and are at the bottom all the time, you won't feel much about whether the first place is 90 points or 100 points.
Conversely, if you are a student leader and dominate the rankings all the year round, suddenly someone rushes in front of you, even if it is only half a point ahead, you will want to come back.
The current situation is obvious. The British are scumbags in the army, but they are scumbags in the navy.
No matter how shocking Franz made the military parade, it was the performance of the army. No matter how much it stimulated the British government, it would not have a brainstorm, and it would have an army arms race with the Holy Roman Empire.
Not only the British did not have that idea, but no country in the world had the courage to play an army arms race with the Holy Roman Empire at this time.
From the moment of the decline of France, there has been a cliff-like division of the global army's armaments.
The Holy Roman Empire thrived, leading far ahead, and the chasers behind could not even see them.
Competitors?
Unless the British change their national policy and fully develop the army, Franz may be able to feel a little pressure.As for other countries, one is considered scum.
Looking at the second-ranked Russians, you will know that all the Ordinary equipment is completely equipped by the Shenluo Army. After a few years, they will follow it.
In this regard, the bureaucrats of the Tsarist government are very experienced. Every time the Russian army changes its clothes, it is in time for the Austrian military to retired.
It just so happens that you can buy second-hand equipment with a new budget, and the price difference in between is the profit. In this regard, the two sides have a very tacit understanding.
Every time the Austrian military retires its weapons and equipment, it will rush several years before the end of its service life to ensure that these second-hand goods can be used normally for some years.
The bureaucrats made money, and the Russian soldiers also benefited.Finally got rid of the domestic crude and shoddy products, although they are all second-hand, but the performance is more reliable than the domestic new products!
On the one hand, there are new equipment that is silly, big, black, constantly malfunctioning, and may explode at any time; on the other hand, there are 50 or 60% new, stable performance, and high security second-hand equipment. This multiple-choice question is easy to do.
In the tsarist government, this is almost an open secret, except for the great Tsar, everyone who should know and should not know.
Even if someone wanted to puncture this layer of window paper, after considering the actual situation, they finally decided to give up.
Not because of fear of death, but mainly because of the safety of Russian soldiers.If capitalists and bureaucrats are not allowed to play reselling games, they will have to make money directly from the production process.
After these people have worked hard, the Russian military industry, which is not so good, can finally produce products that can not be used, then it can only be blessed by God.
You must know that before the reselling campaign started, many of the Russian shells had to be polished and processed twice on the spot, otherwise they could not be inserted.
How good the situation is now, anyway, the Russian army has fully studied the Austrian army, and the weapons and equipment are the same, as long as they are not professionals, there is absolutely no difference.
Even if the weapon is found to be slightly outdated, it can also be said that the training has been strengthened recently and the equipment has been worn out.
Believe it or not, the great Tsar believed it anyway.After inspecting the barracks many times, no problems with weapons and equipment were found.
Affected by this, in recent years, the Russian military logistics department and military industrial enterprises have not received less praise from His Majesty the Tsar.
The comprehensive domestic production of weapons and equipment, even though the production line has to be imported from the Holy Roman Empire, is a remarkable achievement.
For this goal, the original space-time, the Tsarist government has been fighting until its extinction but failed to achieve it.This great goal was not achieved until the open Soviet Union went online.
The second child is like this, not to mention the third child behind.Not to mention the issue of disparity, the key is that the world's third army power is directly absent.
There is no other reason, it is not qualified.
Neither the declining Spanish army nor the pocket version of the British army has anything to do with the "army power".
If you simply look at combat power without considering the bonuses brought by national strength and number, then Switzerland deserves it.
But listing Switzerland as the world’s third largest army power, no matter how you look at it, people think this is a joke?
After kicking out of Switzerland, Belgium is the one with good army combat effectiveness.Undoubtedly, the same problem is "too small" to support the banner of "powerful country."
In the future, it seems that the Nordic Federation also has a bit of strength, but in recent decades there has been no outstanding record performance, and the only appearance is Denmark.
It's a pity that I didn't have any luck. I met Prussia in the high light period, and it was a miserable defeat.If the Nordic Federation is at this level, it obviously has nothing to do with the "army power".
After finishing the inventory of the European continent, if you look overseas, it is even more difficult to see.
The United States and the Confederacy, which have relatively good national strength, are stronger than the American soldiers in the original time and space because of their mutual confrontation, but this "strength" is also very limited.
Both weapons and equipment, as well as the quality of officers and soldiers, are far behind the average level of the European world.
Although the rising Japanese army has a good fighting will, its weapons, equipment and training have slowed down, and the quality of its officers is unqualified.
"Unqualified", this is the evaluation given by Franz.
For no other reason, the influence of Bushido thought is too deep.Such officers have too strong subjective consciousness and lack the ability to think rationally.
What kind of soldiers can be brought out by any officer.Such an army naturally has no problem when it bullies the weak; if it encounters a strong enemy, this weakness is very deadly.
Taking the European War as an example, the French commander buried tens of thousands of French soldiers under the gun.
If it were changed to a god general like "Nogi Hitori", perhaps it would not be tens of thousands of deaths, but that the French army could still have tens of thousands.
Of course, if the French army is so willing to die, the Allied Rhine Line will definitely not support the arrival of reinforcements.There is no problem in bringing the war to the heart of the German region.
However, to build a channel with millions of lives, it is estimated that before the completion of the strategy, the French army itself will first change.
Even if there was no mutiny, there were heavy casualties in the early stage, and the subsequent wars could not be fought.
After all, not every country has an unlimited population to consume.Millions of soldiers were killed in one battle, and there was no way to continue the subsequent battle.
Such officers are actually most suitable for entering the British army and then commanding the Indian colonial army.As long as the Indian colonial army can fight desperately, most of the enemies can be killed. It is not a dream to become a "military god.
After a careful count, you will find that: there is not enough fighting capacity; enough combat power is not enough; not only does the number and combat power have no money, but the command system also has hidden dangers.
After Russia and Austria, there is actually no more army power.
Competitors are so "powerful", it does not matter whether they will be stimulated.Even if some countries are stimulated and try their best to govern and strive to become stronger, they must first complete industrialization.
Since the advent of aircraft tanks, military production has reached the 3.0 era. Without sufficient industrial background support, even the best weapon design cannot be used.
...
When the politicians of various countries were stimulated, a shocking scam also spread from Vienna to all parts of the world.
Mr. Rivera, who was fooled by the first pot of gold, did not run away with the money, but made persistent efforts to make his "great strategic plan" bigger and stronger.
From the current situation alone, Rivera is an excellent entrepreneur.Profound knowledge, excellent speech eloquence, high self-confidence, "noble" ideals, down-to-earth... and a series of excellent qualities.
No kidding, Rivera, who fell into self-intoxication, now really has "noble ideals".
Not only wanting to make a fortune on their own, but also preparing to make a fortune with investors, preparing to break the economic monopoly of the consortium and build a "utopian economic system."
In order to achieve this goal, Rivera is still searching for like-minded people, forming a professional investment team, and also formulating a strict business investment plan.
After receiving the investment, Rivera did not spend a lot of money except for the loan to the Spanish government and the normal salary of the staff.
Instead, they started the pace of buying, buying and buying. First they bought a dip in 2.1% of the Austrian Power Company, then bought a 3.3% stake in the Austrian Automobile Group, and then acquired a 1.9% stake in the Suez Canal...
From an investment perspective, these are all high-quality assets and companies that can obtain substantial returns.The evaluation of "down to earth" is also well-deserved.
While Rivera bought aggressively, it also greatly increased the company's stock price.Judging from the data on the books, Rivera's investment group has achieved profitability.
Mature business logic, professional financial statements, the most important thing is to achieve profitability at the beginning.
The media has put the label of "business genius" on Rivera, claiming to be the most talented investor in the 19th century.
Now wherever he goes, Rivera is the brightest cub.If it continues to succeed, Rivera is a business genius.
The reality is so weird. There is often only a thin line between a liar and a business genius. The only difference is whether they are "successful."
Illegal financing and concealing risks to deceive investors are all minor problems.
Now in the 19th century, at the darkest moment of capital economy, Rivera, who was merely deceiving, is simply a saint in comparison with his peers who sent "peanuts" and "tudy planes".
It's just that the current "sage" Rivera has encountered the biggest trouble since starting a business.When the forest grows, there are all kinds of birds, and the same is true when the investment group grows.
Since ancient times, Caibo has moved people's hearts. The founder of Rivera has not run away, but the younger brother below has run away first.
There was no online payment these days, and most of the investments raised were cash and checks.In the face of huge wealth, only a few are unmoved.
Some guys who couldn't stand the temptation had their brains twisted.First, part of the investment was withheld and not recorded in the account.
Without the Internet, investors cannot check accounts at any time, and Rivera cannot establish contact with every investor.The first wave of moths' operations was a complete success.
It's just that this kind of thing can't be concealed for a while, and the problem of interest payment will be exposed.
In order to avoid the fate of imprisonment, these "worms" simply do nothing, and directly use their jobs to collect money and run away.
The moth ran away, but the investors who suffered heavy losses refused to give up and asked Rivera's investment group to continue to perform the contract.
The contract in black and white is clearly written and cannot be denied at all.Although it is the employee's personal behavior that runs off the cash, it is the investment group that signs the contract with the investor.
This loss, whether Rivera likes it or not, must bear it.If it is only a case, it is not unacceptable. The problem is that there are endless incidents of thunderstorms.
Whether it is to improve treatment or strengthen supervision, similar incidents are still banned repeatedly.If this problem is not resolved, Rivera's investment group will sooner or later be dragged down.
It is necessary to report to the police, but it is too difficult to find someone these days.The police can do nothing as long as they go abroad.
Even if the European Union countries have signed the "Extradition Regulations," they must first find talent.
Rivera: "Everyone, it's our moment of life and death. If we can't prevent incidents like the money running away, the investment group will be ruined by these miscellaneous things sooner or later.
Today we are going to solve this trouble.For the future of the Group and for our own future, I hope that you will not have the slightest reservations and boldly express your thoughts..."
