War was fought with supplies. In the ancient cold weapon era, it was better. As long as the soldiers had enough to eat, it was easy to get some cold weapons. In the modern hot weapon era, there are not enough weapons and ammunition, and strong industrial productivity supports it. Even if the soldiers are given ten meals a day, they will not gain much combat effectiveness.
The current conflict between Russia and Ukraine has lasted for more than a year, and it is enough to watch people eating melons. It has also subverted our understanding of the productivity of the United States and the West.
Who would have thought that this local war, which was not particularly fierce at all, could empty the weapons and ammunition depots in Europe and the United States?
Fortunately, Russia carried out a shock therapy that year, which directly destroyed more than half of the excellent arms manufacturing capacity of the former Soviet Union. At that time, the Soviet Union engaged in imperialism, exported revolutions in various ways, interfered with other countries’ internal affairs, and even lost skill points. Added to the military industry, the life-and-death fight with the United States has finally become two sides of the same coin.
The productivity of the Soviet Union was compared with the military industry, and the light industry was naturally insufficient. The poor bureaucracy and management ruined the reputation of the socialist economy. The blame was passed on to the planned economy. The people were dissatisfied and were fascinated by the United States’ fancy display of wealth. They all wanted to change, so they were taken advantage of by people who were interested in colluding with foreign enemies. The commotion destroyed 70 years of accumulation of socialist ideals, and it was nothing more than the achievement of a group of oligarchs who were obsessed with life and money.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia, which claimed to have inherited the Soviet Union, turned into an armed gas station after 30 years of development. From then on, becoming a great power was just a big dream.
Russia’s manufacturing industry has completely collapsed, and its formerly proud military industry has become unsustainable.
The forces work reciprocally. Since the Soviet Union and the United States are two sides of the same coin, it is easy to understand that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the U.S. manufacturing industry collapsed.
Without the Soviet Union, the enemy staring at the back with a gun, the rulers of the United States found that it was better to buy than to make. Anyway, the Federal Reserve’s money printing machine was printing green money continuously, so the so-called buying was equivalent to taking in vain. Who the hell would bother going into manufacturing when they could get it for free?
When young people in the United States with a moderate IQ have gone to work in the service industry, no matter how hard the White House tries to turn on the money printing machine to support the manufacturing industry, it will be in vain.
During World War II, the United States was able to supply arms to the entire Allies. In the Korean War, the amount of Van Fleet ammunition shocked the world. In the Vietnam War, it could throw away ten years of various ammunition without risking one’s life. In the first Gulf War, the U.S. military was able to fire a weapon that shocked the world. Suppressive technological war, but by 2022, the amazing United States has almost emptied its allies of its support for Ukraine. In this way, it is still unable to organize a large-scale overall campaign and can only fight more intense local wars.
In my impression, the United States, which has a lot of money and is hot-button weapons for free, has finally become what it is now, which is really speechless.
Money can come out of the money printing press, but it is really not that easy to make up for the lost productivity quickly.
I read a particularly interesting article. The author is an engineer engaged in high-end manufacturing, well, in military-related industries.
This old man thinks that Americans have deceived him. The China that Americans think is the China experienced by Zhang Jiadun and others. It is a group of idiots who pretend to be serious in the cafe on the Bund. They are sad for the spring and sad for the autumn. The China that came out can still hope to carry out some color revolutions during the epidemic. It is so naive and childish.
Because the people in power are a bunch of naive people, internal compradors have become popular, and the manufacturing capacity of the military-industrial complex has been transformed into import capacity. Mass production outsourcing has certainly made the balance sheet look pretty good, and the stock price has performed well, but in reality The productivity on the Internet has collapsed.
When the U.S. shipbuilding industry completely dies, the U.S. Navy will no longer be able to replenish the ships needed to maintain hegemony. It is never foreign enemies that poach the US emperor, but the magical financial and financial skills of Wall Street.
Russia is now focused on fully integrating the industrial chain made in China and embracing the production capacity behind the RMB. In fact, it can easily get through the most difficult period.
At worst, without the US dollar, what products can Europe and the United States have that China cannot replace?
Russia has been lacking a rival to integrate the country for so many years. Without pressure, there is no motivation. Living in the illusion of peace and selling oil may lead to a happy life, but it is all illusion.
The warlord system in the United States has always wanted to play the game of gangsters. It is difficult to defraud funds from the Congress bosses to fight against the weak chickens in the Middle East and North Africa. If it really fights against the big Eastern countries, the military itself may be in internal strife when it comes to taking action. The warlord development system is very familiar to me who is familiar with history. Look at the various warlords that Principal Chang has gathered. Why is it that even if it is not possible to fight a civil war or a foreign war, internal strife can be successful?
The reason is very simple. If you fight in a civil war, you will really die. If you fight in a foreign war, the Japanese can really kill people. If the team is gone, they will not be qualified to negotiate terms and treatment with the principal. But internal strife is a seemingly Intense cosplay is similar to a competition for favor script. The loser may not always win, but the winner can gain a lot of benefits by getting the favor alone, so the infighting skill points are filled up.
Therefore, the U.S. military often seeks out think tanks to promote the XX threat theory so that the bosses on Capitol Hill can increase funding.
The U.S. troops stationed in Europe are defending Russia. If Russia disappears, wouldn’t the troops stationed in Europe lose their jobs collectively?
Over the years, the funds for the military garrison in the Middle East have exploded, and even some oil can be stolen and sold. That is all money!
The Asian garrison enjoys the treatment of the Supreme Emperor, and has extra-legal jurisdiction in Japan and South Korea. No one dares to provoke them, which is great. Coupled with the strategy of returning to the Asia-Pacific and Trump’s ability to extort military expenditures, these people have a very easy life.
But the garrison in Europe is miserable. Europe and the United States have the same roots. American soldiers dare not mess around in Europe. The military cannot get involved in manipulating other countries’ internal affairs. There is really no benefit and no sense of existence. This cannot be brushed off.
In order to make life easier for the U.S. military stationed in Europe and to allow NATO, an organization that should be relegated to history, to survive, it had no choice but to force Russia to rebel.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict was originally based on deception.
According to a report by “Ukrainian Pravda” on November 24, David Arakhamia, chairman of the “Servant of the People” parliamentary group of Ukraine’s ruling party, said on the same day that Russia promised in March last year that if Ukraine remained neutral and did not join NATO, Russia would Then cease fire. Lahamia said that Ukraine ultimately chose to continue fighting out of distrust of Russia and the opposition of then-British Prime Minister Johnson.
Russia didn’t want to fight a big war at all, so it was poorly prepared in advance. Emperor Vladimir Putin was not a stupid or naive person. Even though he was tricked by his subordinates and had insufficient awareness of the corruption of the military, he could still fight the war to destroy the country and even mobilize the whole country. It’s a bit strange that the big conscription was not done in advance.
Russia originally wanted to start a security war to scare Ukraine, but Ukraine was tricked by the British and chose to continue fighting, forcing the war to escalate.
Why are senior Ukrainian officials selling Johnson out now? Because Johnson has stepped down, but everyone is not stupid. They all know that if the UK can do this, there must be someone behind it, because the world is not 100 years ago, and the British Empire has collapsed long ago to the point that even the British Isles can hardly save it. It’s just so cowardly. , who really gives face?
No matter how dissatisfied they are, they don’t dare to sell the United States directly. After all, the money earned by launching a war is US dollars, which are stored in places controlled by the Americans. This is tantamount to holding important leverage.
But this wave of Israeli demons in the Middle East may expand at any time. The already tight thermal weapons productivity can only satisfy the Middle East as much as possible. Even if the money printing machine can work overtime to print more money for Ukraine, what about the weapons?
Without ammunition, a thermal weapon might as well be a fire stick!
Zelensky has long been angry, but he is also a Jew and cannot openly criticize Israel.
The anger always had to be vented, so the chairman of the party came out to speak out, saying that he did not want to fight, and Russia did not want to kill them all. The perpetrator was the golden-haired former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom who had killed thousands of people.
Now that the former British Prime Minister has become a thing of the past in the political arena, can the stranded peace issue be discussed again?
Zelensky is doing the summation of curves.
But when things have come to this point, Russia may not be able to agree to the previous conditions. It was able to make peace last year because it was completely unreasonable. The United States and the West have not yet caused damage to Russia’s market value.
The reason why we can’t make peace this year is because even Emperor Pu’s confidant, the cook brother, was forced to death. If he loses face, he has to find it elsewhere. If he has an advantage, he still shrinks back. How can this make the emperor feel embarrassed? This group of people is the most trouble-making. If their hearts are really chilled, the situation that Emperor Pu has finally stabilized may be troubled again.
Things have turned, and now that Ukraine can no longer handle it, Russia will demand more.
A stalemate between the two sides would be beneficial to Emperor Pu.
Ze Sheng is going to be roasted on the fire, but he can’t blame others, he chose his own path.
