War consumes enormous wealth and has a huge impact on future economies, which is something we need to be aware of. During the Second World War, there were about 72 million people**, a decrease of about 3 percent of the world's population2%。Such a price is thought-provoking. Even in modern warfare, the cost is astronomical, such as the cost of aircraft carriers and fighter jets. As a result, the average country simply does not have the strength to wage war, and even an economically powerful country like the United States finds it difficult to feed the war, let alone other countries with average economic strength.
Although the current international conflict has been resolved by military strength, it is far from reaching the level of war, and can only be reluctantly called armed conflict. Although everyone generally feels that war is far away from us, some people have raised an intriguing question: If China is really involved in a contemporary war, how many days can 1.4 billion people donate 1,000 yuan to support the army to fight?According to past experience, it is estimated that the military expenditure of 1.4 trillion yuan can sustain our ** team for about 35 days. This data makes people deeply feel that military spending is "not forbidden".
Zhang Zhaozhong, a military expert, commented on a military program: "If the United States fails to end a war in two months, then the United States will fall into the quagmire of war"These data and evaluations give us a deeper understanding of the horrors of war. In modern warfare, in addition to the cost of a large number of soldiers, a lot of money needs to be invested. Every bullet and every shell needs to be expensive, soldiers need to pay pensions for their sacrifices, and huge sums of money are also needed for the research and development and manufacturing of advanced equipment.
In peacetime, if there is a war, how much money are we, as Chinese, willing to donate to the motherland?This is a question that requires serious consideration.
