On September 1st, San Jose reorganized the defense force again and expanded its scale in the Argerich District of Blanca City. So far, the La Pampa Defense Force has been formed, and the organization of the five regiments is basically equivalent to the Cordoba Legion. .

A large number of new recruits have not yet completed their training, and their morale and strength are difficult to compete with the Cordoba Army and the National Defense Force. Saint Jose did not act rashly and continued to wait for opportunities.

The defense forces of Neuquen Province and Rio Negro Province also expanded to two regiments and three regiments respectively with the help of Saint Jose. La Pampa Province funded them with a large number of light and heavy weapons.

The regiment sizes of La Pampa Defense Force are almost all exceeding the standard. They can be called "independent regiments". They are more than 1,000 people more than the standard regiment, and can basically reach the scale of 2,500 or even 3,000 people. The number of 5 regiments has already been Reached 14,000 people.

In April this year, representatives from 29 countries in Asia and Africa held a meeting in Bandung.

The influence of this incident also slowly spread to Argentina.

Not many people in Argentina 40,000 miles away will pay attention to this meeting, and not many people will pay attention to these international details.

Saint Jose is the only one in Argentina who pays close attention to all important matters with the five good people. After all, they are related by interests.

The Argentine people's arrogance in their national pride was slowly shattered by the trivialities of life and the increasingly frequent military coups. They didn't have enough to eat, and they didn't have the time to pay attention to any major international events. The new military dictator came to power. The standard is indeed getting worse, and a turbulent period in which military personnel take turns in power is likely to come.

In the presidential palace, General Thomas Jr. is firmly seated as Minister of Defense. He failed to compete with the new president, General Pedro Aramburu. The vice president is still General Jose, but the officer at the Belgrano naval base has been replaced. After a wave of people, it can be said that he has been ignored now, and the navy has basically nothing to do with him.

In terms of economy, foreign capital such as the United Kingdom and the United States has increased their penetration into Argentina's economy. The economy in most areas of Argentina is in recession. In addition, the unreasonable shortcomings of the previous Bilon administration's centralized power failed to be successfully reformed, and various social chaos occurred frequently.

The current military government is probably about to collapse.

The de-Bilonization reform of the new presidential palace failed. Aramburu ordered his men to move the body of Evita Bilon out of the headquarters of the Labor Federation and has disappeared.

Workers in Argentina took to the streets again, and the troops of local warlords continued to suppress the increasingly frequent workers' demonstrations.

Workers were in urgent need of jobs and bread. The Socialist Republicans took the opportunity to grow stronger. They asked the military officers to step down and hold a new presidential election. The Radical Party and the Republican Party also united to fight against the military dictatorship.

The Radical Party headed by Arturo Frandisi flourished. Arturo agreed with a series of social and economic policies implemented by Bilon and was officially elected as the Radical Party's presidential candidate.

After more than a year of recovery and development, the Radical Party has completely surpassed the Justice Party and became the largest organization in Argentina. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The Radical Party is being split into two parts. Now it is too complex and unstable internally, and it has absorbed Too many old Justice Party members.

José Cohen, head of the southern branch of the local giant Radical Party, is still considered a direct descendant of Arturo.

Now the La Pampa Defense Force is the backbone of San Jose, and no other wealth can be as strong as the gun in his hand.

New Cohen Heavy Industries, which resumed production, caught up with the good times. Military orders came in like pieces of paper, and the international smuggling channel system that had been maintained was restored to life.

His cronies had a large number of secret distributors and arms dealers in South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, the Fertile Crescent and other places. After the meeting, orders surged, and the newly established arms factories were quickly put to great use.

The arms and tank factories in Blanca City are large in scale and have advanced equipment, which can well meet the needs of military development.

The profits of military factories can very well supplement the scarce international funds. This trend can at least guarantee a continuous and stable cash flow for at least 3-5 years. This is a huge wealth and can also make the New Cohen Heavy Industry and military factories The future is brighter.

Although Rennes Military Industry has orders from the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of National Defense's ability to get free money is a bit unsightly. Not only did it default on payment, but also began to default on wages. The weapons in the warehouse were resold by the truckload. Cronies were placed in charge of the factory and the factory was changed at will. The work process is haphazardly directed, and now the workers all miss the old Rennes era, and the Rennes military industry is very hurt.

And this also gave San Jose more opportunities to take advantage of. These skilled workers are all treasures. Under the operation of caring people, batches of old employees dispersed and went to Blanca City, and they were given a 20% salary increase. Food and accommodation included.

The joining of old employees has relieved the development pressure of New Cohen Heavy Industry, so that more energy can be invested in the Steyr truck project and bus project.

St. Hesse has also specially developed an export version of light weapons that is lighter, equally powerful, and more affordable for our dear Asian and African customers.

New Cohen Heavy Industries develops various weapons with excellent combat performance, decent appearance, more compact structure, small size and easier to carry, high reliability, low failure rate, and good shooting accuracy. This also makes New Lane Military Industry’s ANG series weapons very popular. .

As for why the foreign trade version uses the strange code name ang, it is also for safety reasons. The Asia and Africa regions are basically the territory of Britain and France, and the United States and the Soviet Union are also making efforts now, and at the same time they are also establishing a brand advantage, which is different from the previous Rennes. There is a difference in making whiteboard weapons.

Asian and African customers are basically not very wealthy and think copper is too expensive, so they buy our steel-cased bullets, which are about the same power, more than half the price, and greatly improved in lethality.

Influenced by later generations and cost control, St. Hesse had arranged the research and development of steel-cased bullets early on. Copper-clad steel, copper-plated steel, and lacquered steel were developed simultaneously. Rennes Military Industry has been at the forefront of the development of steel-cased bullets. Maya Chemical Industry Help develop various coating processes, the special steel factory develops the casings of various military steel bullets, and the Philip Machinery Factory improves stamping processes and molds.

The price of brass on the Argentine market is about 1,000-1,500 US dollars per ton. It relies heavily on imports, mainly from Chile and other countries. If the production volume is huge, it will cost a huge amount of foreign exchange. The mining and smelting of the copper mine in El Pajun The quantity is not too large, and now it can barely meet some of the needs of daily life and production.

The market price of steel is about 140-150 US dollars per ton. The original imported steel price added up to 200 US dollars. Now, through localization, it can basically reduce a large part of the cost.

The amount of brass used to produce one cartridge case is about 5 to 10 grams. It may not matter if you produce tens of thousands of cartridges, but if it is tens of millions or hundreds of millions, the difference will be huge.

Amid various issues such as copper costs and iron costs, manufacturing processes and R&D costs, the costs of copper-cased bullets and steel-cased bullets are still at a level of 3:1 or even higher, which gives a lot of room for activity. Now Many weapons equipped by the new Rennes Heavy Industry have been slowly replaced with steel-cased bullets.

It has to be said that this is standing on the shoulders of giants. Many common senses that future generations take for granted can produce huge economic benefits in Argentina’s daily economy and even production activities.

The Asian and African brothers don't have enough to eat, they have little strength, and their weapons contain high iron content, so they are heavy to hold in battle, but that doesn't matter. AUG uses various versions of light weapons with plastic accessories.

In terms of production, the manufacturing process is too cumbersome, so we should continue to improve and optimize mechanical stamping parts. The production process is slow, add production lines, and open more stamping machines.

It doesn't matter if the assembly is slow. The production process is optimized, unnecessary parts are reduced, the gun stock is also changed from wooden stock to plastic parts, and the number of workers is increased at the same time.

If you can't afford it, you can always have a mortgage. You can have gold, diamond, mines and land. Let Prali International take over it and convert it into money, which can be invested heavily in Blanca City to develop more factories.

The hugely profitable arms business has once again set sail, perfectly stimulating the development of the military industry in Blanca City. New Cohen Heavy Industry has several more suppliers. The development in this area has reduced the economic pressure on St. Hesse. It is indeed quite expensive to raise an army. Money.

Not talking about logistics, just live-fire training, each soldier in La Pampa Province consumes about 150 bullets, and basically supplies 2 million bullets to the La Pampa Defense Force, and this does not include Friendly sponsorship provides ammunition to two little brothers.

After all, these are new recruits. Without bullets to feed them, it will be difficult to develop combat effectiveness. Regular training alone is not enough.

Gu Yu

The Defense Force is where San Jose's confidence lies, and he is confident that he will build the La Pampa Defense Force into the most powerful army in Argentina.

Senior Lata officials even wanted San Jose to serve as the finance minister of La Pampa Province, but it was too exaggerated, so he gave up. Later, San Jose recommended his cronies, and now he is the finance director of Prairie International, one of the largest companies in Argentina. The head of the department is the Minister of Finance, Henila Osun, to provide maximum convenience for the development of the San Jose and La Pampa Defense Forces.

This is the influence of Saint Jose in La Pampa Province. He is now the business god of La Pampa Province. Blanca City contributes almost 90% of the tax revenue of La Pampa Province.

The Defense Force is an army raised by Saint Joseph, but it must abide by the basic rules of the game. Moreover, the Defense Force is also a regular army, but it will take some time.

This development may seem a bit deformed, but there is no way back for Blanca City and there is no way back for San Jose.

The development of the city of Santa Rosa and the three coastal cities will take time, and now they all rely on the support of the city of Blanca.



In addition to developing the automobile manufacturing industry in Blanca City, Philip Industries has also opened new motorcycle factories and tractor factories in Blanca City to develop exports.

Motorcycles and motorcycle tricycles also use domestic engines, and the gradually improving automobile industry system has made it easier to develop motorcycles, tractors, and trucks here, attracting some large foreign parts factories to settle here.

The cheap and easy-to-use Thunder Shield 900 scooter has become the choice of many Argentinians after they cannot afford a car. A motorcycle costs less than 150 US dollars, and the price is only one-tenth of the price of a car. You can buy a motorcycle by saving up for half a year. car.

If necessary, you can also buy a $250 tricycle, which can be equipped with a bucket or a cape, and can also pull goods and carry people, but the speed is slower.

The middle class with high incomes cannot afford to buy any cars at all. The current orders for Fiat 600 cars are basically at the limit of saturation. The expansion of production lines is more for export to other Latin American countries to gain more profits.

Philip Industries' motorcycle orders are growing rapidly. In September, the number of orders for various models exceeded 5,000 units. The sales of motorcycles alone reached 1 million U.S. dollars. This time, the construction scale of the Blanca City factory was The production capacity is 8,000 units per month, and the same is true for new tractors. The monthly sales volume has firmly ranked first in Argentina, and it has been able to stably sell 800-1,000 tractors every month.

The number of motorcycles on the traffic thoroughfares in Blanca City is slowly increasing. Unless San Jose can develop Wuling Light vans and light trucks that are cheap and easy to use, the sales of Philip Industrial’s motorcycles will not be too bad for a long time. , and can also be exported to all over the world.

The transportation here is more convenient than the city of Cordoba, a major automobile industry town in Argentina. The throughput of major ports in Blanca exceeds 20 million tons, making it the second largest port in the country. Most of them are bulk ores, and steel is also cheap, and plastics are It is also cheap, electricity is cheap, public security is good, and the recruitment problem has been alleviated.

Oil pipelines and petrochemical plants are advancing rapidly. The large number of demands for oil pipelines is also a booster for the development of the steel industry. As well as steel bars for road construction and real estate development, steel plants have become a stable business.

Not many Argentines could have imagined how powerful the weapon of infrastructure was. Cement, steel, and banks all benefited from development, and there was also the influx of a large amount of foreign capital, mainly from the United States, which stimulated economic prosperity.

The three major carriages have all appeared in Blanca City. Except for the weak domestic consumption, the others are major economic development tools. However, this is based on the slow development of other Argentine cities, and Saint Jose cannot take care of that much.

Blanca City has also opened many short-term training schools and formal education institutions, and has sufficient reserve labor resources.

There are six universities that will start classes next fall, the best of which is the Polytechnic Institute of La Pampa, which is being built with the assistance of the National University of the South. This will be the second university after the National University of the South in the future.

The effect of spending money on education is quite remarkable, and the actual managed population of Blanca City officially exceeded the 700,000 mark in October, officially becoming the second largest city in the country, which has accelerated the rate of population inflow.

Saint-Jesse has once again lowered its population entry threshold and continues to encourage childbirth. The number of newborns has once again reached a new high. With the addition of a large amount of construction funds, each of the six districts now has 1-3 large hospitals, recruiting from all over the country. The cost of doctors entering and building a hospital is not high, mainly in terms of equipment and personnel. Blanca City has cooperated with foreign countries by supporting a number of manufacturers such as the Masson Medical Research Institute and the Ryan Medical Equipment Factory, a pharmaceutical production company in the Achlic District. Medical and pharmaceutical manufacturers cooperate to reduce costs.

Recruiting doctors and nurses means poaching people and slowly cultivating them, accelerating the construction of the School of Medicine at the National University of the South and the Medical College of Blanca to meet the needs of future doctors and nurses.

Some newly added towns are also building hospitals, and many pregnant women from other provinces are also considering giving birth and preparing for pregnancy in the peripheral city of Blanca. Saint Jose has to move some highly polluting industries to the outer suburbs, and the blast furnaces of the special steel plants are simply replaced. The Port of Alta District has been basically moved away from the East and West Districts to reduce environmental pollution, as well as papermaking, printing and dyeing plants.

A large number of primary and secondary schools have begun to operate, and child care institutions have spread all over Lanka. This has caused many workers to start taking care of their families and call for relatives and friends to start settling in Blanca.

There are sufficient living resources in Blanca City. People jokingly say that the peso exchange rate here is completely different from other Argentine regions. Here you can buy things for 20 pesos for 10 pesos. Blanca Peso and non-Blanca City The peso is a completely different thing. This is based on the huge supply of materials, attracting outsiders to come for shopping. Sanchez Supermarket has also opened in various districts and towns, and convenient transportation has also reduced the cost of living and production.

The quality of Blanca City's products has been in line with international standards, and they are also high-quality and low-priced. They are a unique product under Argentina's trade protection and domestic substitution.

Moreover, there are good public security conditions here, the cost of living is lower than in Buenos Aires, and jobs can be found everywhere. The wealth created has stimulated immigration from all over the country and even abroad. Xin'a Media uses newspapers and radio to advertise everywhere. We have visited countries such as Chile, Paraguay, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, and Venezuela, attracting a large influx of people.

In terms of rubber, we have signed long-term contracts with important producing areas such as Brazil, Guatemala, Indonesia, and Thailand to supply domestic automobile, shoemaking, and industrial product manufacturing industries.

At the same time, we will use platforms such as Prali International and Sunshine Agriculture to invest in rubber planting in Paraguay and Bolivia to develop rubber supply.

In particular, the best-developed Oran City and the small warlord Thunder Cross in the Potassium Triangle region have actually maintained their old relationship with Bolivia pretty well, and Thunder Mining's mining in Bolivia has also been quite smooth.

Paz Estensolo has been the president of Bolivia for three years. He has received some sponsorship from the Saint Jose Group and has established some good relationships. Bill, the person in charge of Thunder Cross, has a pretty good relationship with Paz.

During his term of office, Paz implemented a series of democratic reforms, helped Indians gain the right to vote, and achieved Bolivia's national equality and unity. His support rate has always been high.

At the same time, he nationalized the mining industry and nationalized the minerals of the tin mining king Simon Itry, carried out land reform, handed over arable land in the central plateau to the Indians, and increased education funding, making primary and secondary schools free.

It's just that Bolivia's current paper-thin peace situation is also full of crises. Like most Latin American countries, the seeds of the military government's threat have always existed in Bolivia.

But this has nothing to do with Saint Jose. He only does business in Bolivia and never interferes in Bolivia's political situation. His friendship with Bolivia can be regarded as an unexpected blessing at best.

Saint Jesé attaches great importance to Bolivia, a major iron ore country. The iron ore in the Thirty-Three Province of Uruguay is not expected to be mined for long. The iron ore found in the country is of relatively low grade and the mining cost is relatively high.

The situation of Brazilian iron ore is not very stable. Vale is a Brazilian state-owned enterprise and a traditional rival of Argentina. There is still not much news about Thunder Mining's Australian iron ore, and a stable iron ore supply is very important.

Bolivia is close to Argentina and can also provide a stable supply of iron ore, which is more scarce than coal mines.

At present, Argentina's steel production has exceeded 7 million tons, plus the expansion of La Plata Steel Plant, the expansion of Hans Steel Plant, the blast furnace repair of Blanca City Special Steel Plant, plus the northern part of Buenos Aires, Romania The small steel plant in Sario can at least more than double Argentina's steel production.

It has to be said that due to historical reasons, the number of military governments in Latin America is increasing. This year, Uruguay also followed in the footsteps of Argentina and officially joined the ranks of military governments.
