The great achievements are in front of him, and he would be a fool not to take them! Wang Wenda didn't believe that the Japanese army could be willing to sacrifice so much to dig a hole. Besides, he was used to jumping into the hole. After so many years, it was not a fun thing to do, but that time

Didn’t he end up winning? Fight hard!

Hundreds of divers carrying explosives entered the water from the warship and began to blast and remove the wooden piles and cement pillars deeply rooted in the seabed. This will be a very troublesome and time-consuming job, but there is no good way, and,

They can afford to wait.

But after all, some people can't afford to wait. When a new round of Japanese air strikes arrived, the total number of Japanese fighter planes crowded in the southern part of the Yangtze River Delta and over the Chairman's house had almost exceeded 500!

Among them, more than 100 A6M6s and more than 100 "Ultimate Zero Fighters" are still tossing back and forth in the old battlefield, trying many times to break through the obstacles and head towards Nanjing.

Another batch of 300 "Ultimate Zero Fighters" taking off from Taiwan and Ryukyu respectively relied on their speed and maneuverability advantages to boldly bypass the Zhoushan Island base and go straight to Hangzhou Bay! With that posture, it seemed that they would attack Hangzhou at any time, or

Turn around and attack Shanghai!

Being blocked at the door of his home by the Japanese army, Lao Jiang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot all day long. He didn't like anyone and was not nice to anyone. He dropped cups and bowls many times in a deserted place.

He cursed all kinds of idiots and trash, and got almost all the party-state elites he could find involved.

Of course, Zhu Bin is indispensable among them. If this kid is willing to be serious and attentive, he can keep the Japanese army away from overseas and prevent its fighter planes from setting foot on the country, let alone the three surprises in one day.

A dangerous thing! He is watching Japanese fighter planes bombing Shanghai. Once the bombs fall, won’t the face and reputation he has accumulated over the years of hard work be lost in one fell swoop?!

However, it happened to be a cloudy day and the house was leaking. When the Japanese army's unprecedented all-powerful fighter jets and the fleet led by the Central Army were fighting fiercely in the airspace of hundreds of miles, Zhou Zhi, as the commander-in-chief of the Central Air Force and director of the Aviation Committee,

Rou came in with a sad face and reported: "Chairman, more than half of our existing fighter planes have been put into combat. If we redeploy them again, I am afraid it will affect the defense of the capital and the northern front operations!"

In order to completely protect the southeastern fiscal and taxation center, Chiang Kai-shek even transferred back the air force deployed in the northwest to deal with his old rivals. However, the relatively crazy Japanese army still did not seem so wealthy!

From morning to now, in just one morning, the Central Air Force has lost nearly two hundred fighter planes. The number of Japanese planes shot down is similar, but the Japanese army seems to have endless uses. The number is increasing!

On the other hand, the Central Air Force deployed all 500 aircraft deployed in the southeast, and a regiment of more than 70 aircraft from the East China Sea Fleet also joined in. More than 200 aircraft transferred back from Xuzhou, the south, and the west also went up, always maintaining a level of 2

They have an advantage of less than one, but the quality level of the fighter planes themselves is uneven. If the fight continues, the results will be worrying!

The Central Air Force has a total of more than a thousand fighter planes. Currently, 300 of them are participating in the battle along the Great Wall to protect their own elite troops. More than 100 of them are staying near Nanjing to guard. But they really can't spare more power to participate in the war!

When Lao Jiang heard this, his forehead buzzed. His fingers trembled, and he pointed to the south and shouted: "What about the South China Sea Fleet and Li Delin's air force? Move over! There is also the north, Zhu Hanchen's air force is enough to support them.

You can also transfer it here!”

Zhou Zhirou said in an awkward low voice: "Li Delin... said that he found that the Japanese army had a tendency to advance into the third theater and did not dare to act rashly; the South China Sea Fleet is out training; to the north... Chairman, it is better to ask Zhu Hanchen to send more

?”

The north side cannot be transferred! Zhou Zhirou knew in his heart that if he really evacuated, if something bad happened there and the teaching corps was tricked, the chairman of the committee would peel off the skins of all the people involved. He would definitely

Didn't run!

Lao Jiang almost blurted out: "If I can instigate him, why would I be in such an embarrassing situation?!"

In front of his subordinates, he still had to maintain his dignity. He unconsciously tilted his cheek to one side and said bitterly: "People like Li Delin always fall behind at critical moments... Humph! Then let's not mention it.

!Zhu Hanchen is also a secretive person. I have no time to argue with him. By the way, I remember that Jinling Aircraft Factory, Hangzhou Aircraft Factory, and Nanchang Aircraft Factory all have production. They work overtime to speed up production! Don't delay using it.

!”

After all, he is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, and Chiang Kai-shek finally knows how much money he has at his disposal. The three aircraft factories were all set up with Zhu Bin's help, and they are top-notch. They have contributed hundreds of aircraft to the Central Air Force in the past few years.

What about fighter planes?

Zhou Zhirou was sweating heavily on his forehead and muttered: "...Chairman, the three aircraft factories have started working continuously, but because the rectification has just been completed, I'm afraid... it's too late."

"Mother Xipi! What's going on?! How could you be so neglectful of the country's important cornerstone and lifeblood? How on earth did you do this?!"

Lao Jiang went berserk on the spot, almost escalating the situation, but after shouting a few words, he suddenly lowered the door. He himself knew very well what happened!

Yes, Zhu Bin helped establish the first three aircraft factories. The first was the Hangzhou Manufacturing Factory, which was completed in conjunction with the Curtiss Company and was capable of manufacturing P-21 and other fighters. The Jinling Factory was established later, and Nanchang mainly assembled bombers. At the beginning, it was also

Quite a lot

However, after they had a falling out with Zhu Bin a few years ago, Song Ziwen came forward to negotiate and the relationship was clearly cut off. After that, Chairman Jiang was nominally in charge, and Zhou Zhirou was in charge below, but in real terms

The production is in the hands of the Kong family.

In the past few years, not only has the scale of the aircraft factory not expanded, but many precious equipment have been scrapped for no reason. The raw materials purchased with a large amount of money are many times more expensive, and the output has also dropped significantly. By this year, Zhu Bin took over the equipment reorganization.

There are some of the most difficult units to deal with. Until now, the Japanese army has been killing them right before their eyes, but they haven't done anything yet!

What can Lao Jiang say about the good deeds done by his relatives? He still expects this group of people to carry his sedan chair to stabilize his position. Are he really going to break his face? He refuses to do so!

After letting out a heavy breath, Lao Jiang waved his hand roughly and said, "I don't care what method you use. Fighters are indispensable on the front line. If you delay important events, you will be dealt with according to military law!"

He seemed to feel that these words were a bit unkind, and for fear of hurting the hearts of his confidants, he added: "If you have any difficulties, you can discuss them with Minister He and Minister Song in detail! State affairs are important, so don't get angry!"

Zhou Zhirou was granted amnesty and nodded quickly: "Yes! Yes! I will definitely get things done as soon as possible!"

He lowered his head and walked out the door. He took out his handkerchief to wipe off his sweat and quickly walked out of Chiang Kai-shek's house. His expression immediately changed, he returned to the office and picked up the phone. He immediately called Kong Xiangxi: "Minister Kong! You mentioned it.

I have already taken care of the matter! Please contact the United States as soon as possible to facilitate the deal. The war ahead is tense and there cannot be any delay!"

It sounds like he is asking the other party to do a big troublesome thing. But in fact, it is Kong Xiangxi who has long been eyeing the big fat piece of aviation!

Don't think that a super comprador doesn't understand military strategy. Without that kind of mind, he wouldn't be able to be a country's finance minister, let alone manage a country's economy and taxes. When it comes to making money, Kong Xiangxi is top-notch.

What kind of virtues are those factories of the Central Air Force? He knows very well in his heart that Zhu Bin has great abilities and will not be able to straighten them out in a short time. Building aircraft is not as simple as making tractors. That is what he has done with the Americans.

It's almost completely cleansed from the inside out, so it's very difficult for outsiders to interfere.

Now, the seemingly strong foundation of the Central Air Force has suddenly been exposed. The entire country's air power cannot stop Japan's full blow. Unless Zhu Bin takes action, Chiang Kai-shek has no choice but to ask for help if he wants to keep his country. And now,

I can only contact an American. Mr. Kong happens to have many friends in the United States and can be contacted.

When Japanese fighter planes appeared over Fenghua, Kong Xiangxi called Zhou Zhirou's office to give him a heads up. Sure enough, within half a day, things came back to normal.

Of course, Kong Xiangxi does not need to come forward himself. He naturally has his subordinates to contact American companies. Representatives from Curtiss, Douglas, Lockheed, Bell and other companies are now staying in Shanghai. Once the war between China and Japan started, they all realized

, the opportunity to make a fortune is here!

In the afternoon of that day, Zhou Zhirou first met Curtis "through the introduction of a friend." As old friends who had cooperated for ten years and had a friendly past of jointly researching fighter jets, the two sides reached an agreement on the first batch of two projects without much effort.

Purchase contract for 100 P40 fighter jets, and order the next batch of 300 aircraft.

Bell Company and Lockheed Company also presented their own fighter jets under development. Although they are much more expensive than Curtiss, and their performance is not that good in all aspects, and the output is not guaranteed at all, China still adheres to the principle of

Based on the principle of "making friends widely", we placed a forward order for a thousand aircraft. In this way, a huge contract of nearly 100 million US dollars was formed in one fell swoop.

The negotiation was successfully completed, and representatives from both sides toasted to celebrate in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Zhu Bin got the record of the whole process immediately, pointed at the transaction price and sneered: "You are indeed an elite of the party and state, spending money so generously! The Broken P-40 is just a simplified version of our P-24, performance indicators

They are all unqualified, but they dare to ask for 50,000 US dollars per unit, which is twice as expensive as our production cost! They dare to ask for it too!"

Cao Han said sarcastically: "At least 10,000 yuan is a kickback, and the price is even clearly marked! With one order, the Kong family can transfer more than 10 million US dollars. It is indeed a good material for doing business!"

Zhu Bin was furious: "It's his uncle! How much did I spend to build those three manufacturing plants? Ten million U.S. dollars! I gave it to them for free and it was wasted. Don't you feel bad for selling my land? What the hell?"

!”

Cao Han sighed: "The mud can't hold up the wall. It's already rotten and there's no hope! Thank you for taking it all back. Otherwise, one day the Japanese might use our equipment to make weapons and attack them. That would be a disaster.

Big joke!”
Chapter completed!
