Jews have extensive connections in American political circles, which complements their huge wealth. Sometimes they can even influence the direction of American politics. As a time traveler, Ouyang Yun is well aware of this, so he places the hope of the fleet on them. This can help him realize the almost impossible dream of an aircraft carrier. He knows that with the current financial resources of Xuebingjun, even with the selfless help of the Jewish Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible to afford the expensive fleet construction costs. Instead of doing this, it is better to pay the debt in installments or something. Xue Bingjun's current financial resources are a bit scarce, but as long as there is enough time and the many cutting-edge technology patents mastered by research and development, the debt can eventually be paid off. Debts and loans are not a problem at all. Of course, if possible, it is also acceptable to use part of the patents as collateral, but the premise is that there must be a reliable middleman to act as a guarantee, and this role is undoubtedly The Jewish Chamber of Commerce is the most suitable,
After Ouyang Yun explained the reason clearly, all the big guys from the Jewish Chamber of Commerce could not help but heave a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was just a guarantee, not payment. Although this would involve considerable risks, it was obviously more serious than being dragged out and slaughtered directly. easier to accept,
There was a man named Bao An from the United States in the chamber of commerce. He thought for a while and said, "I do know a vice president of a shipbuilding company affiliated with Sun Petroleum Company, but they mainly build oil tankers and I don't know whether to undertake warships."
Since Ouyang Yun had decided to develop aircraft carriers, he naturally paid special attention to this aspect. There were only two famous shipyards in the United States during World War II that he remembered, one of which was located in New York directly under the U.S. Department of the Navy, and the other was located in Newport, Virginia. News Shipyard, he asked with some confusion: "What is the capability of this Sunoco Shipyard? Can it build large ships?"
Bao An smiled: "Of course, the oil tankers they built are all over 10,000 tons, and some giant ships are even larger than aircraft carriers. General, how about using this shipyard as the main public relations target? .”
"Bao An, I will go to the United States to discuss this matter with President Roosevelt in a few days. How about you come with me and talk about it when we get to the United States?"
"OK."
This matter went smoothly, and Ouyang Yun's mood improved a lot before leaving. Before leaving, he said to Lao Bonn: "My president, well, I am not here to borrow money from you this time. Don't be so sad. Once this aircraft carrier fleet is built, it will only benefit you, the Jewish people. I promised you that I would get you a piece of autonomous land. I have never forgotten this promise. The reason why I am so keen to establish Of course, the aircraft carrier fleet is needed for the Anti-Japanese War. Another key reason is that it is expected to help you gain a piece of territory. Bonn, your more than three million Jews in Guangzhou have been firmly tied to our student army. ,For our common future, I hope we can cooperate sincerely, ,I hope you can understand what I mean.”
Ouyang Yun's final words, which he carefully explained, did not give it too special meaning. However, because of his identity, Bonn and the others had to think about it carefully, and then let him do something unexpected. it just happened,
The Jewish Chamber of Commerce not only solemnly accepted his request, but also made a more realistic and feasible supplement on this basis. The Jewish Chamber of Commerce will take the initiative to bear half of the total cost of building an aircraft carrier fleet, and in exchange, they hope that the fleet will be at least Half of the staff and combat personnel must be Jewish,
When Lao Bonn and Bao An came to the door and put forward their conditions, Ouyang Yun was happy when he heard it: "Okay, no problem, we are a family, but you know what it takes to build such a fleet." Funding, this includes the construction of ships, training of relevant personnel, etc. Even if it is only half, it is an astronomical figure."
The two Jews came well prepared. Bao An took out a notebook, opened it, and read: "According to the conventional configuration plan, an aircraft carrier fleet will be equipped with one aircraft carrier, two cruisers, two destroyers, and one anti-submarine ship." The construction cost of a large aircraft carrier with a displacement of about 30,000 tons is about 250 million US dollars, and the construction cost of a cruiser with a displacement of about 8,000 tons is about US$250 million. About 50 million U.S. dollars for one ship... plus the cost of personnel training and corresponding supporting facilities, the total cost is 760 million U.S. dollars."
Ouyang Yun was stunned when he heard this, and at the same time he was filled with admiration. This person's work was much more detailed than his. He just made a rough estimate, but they had already produced precise data. His mind was spinning rapidly. Even if the Jewish Chamber of Commerce is willing to bear half of it, the Xuebing Army will still need to bear 380 million US dollars. According to Jiang Shuren's calculations, the Xuebing Army can only divert up to 15 million US dollars now. This gap is really too big. I felt a little frustrated when I thought about it, thinking that I couldn’t ask the Jewish Chamber of Commerce to help guarantee the remaining half. Just when I didn’t know how to speak, Gu Lianyun, who had been sitting quietly, said: "President Bonn, Mr. Bao An, so To put it bluntly, our Xuebing Army needs to bear 380 million."
Old Bonn nodded, glanced at Ouyang Yun, and asked: "Why, are you in trouble? Our government shouldn't be so poor."
Bao An also looked confused. They have several factories and mines in Fujian and Guangdong and are taxpayers, so they know the income of Xue Bingjun. However, they only calculate taxes but not expenditures, which is inevitably biased.
Ouyang Yun answered honestly: "I was not too poor at first, but the Battle of Nanjing wiped out most of my savings for half a year. Now I have to rebuild the army, rebuild Guangzhou, and step up the production of armaments. We need money everywhere. Naturally, this money will be It’s not enough.”
Gu Lianyun lightly patted Ouyang Yun's right hand and interjected: "Let our representative office in the United States handle the other half of the fleet construction costs. However, I hope that President Bonn can ask the local Jewish organizations in the United States to help us. Guarantee, we can’t come up with so much money at once, but it shouldn’t be a problem in two years, and as far as I know, for an aircraft carrier fleet to fully form combat effectiveness, two years is essential, okay.”
Old Bonn thought for a while and agreed,
After seeing off Lao Bonn and Bao An, Ouyang Yun asked Gu Lianyun with some worry: "In two years, your U.S. representative office can really raise US$380 million."
"We don't need so much. St. George can save us 50 million. The remaining 330 million, if you give me some more power, there will be no problem."
"What."
"For example, when it comes to the licensing of several patents, especially those related to electronic technology, Americans are very jealous and they are willing to pay a lot of money."
"I have to think about this."
"Well, what are you going to do about President Roosevelt's private invitation?" This was what Gu Lianyun was most concerned about at the moment. She looked at him expectantly.
"Of course I accept it. Just because of this aircraft carrier dream, I should give it a try."
"Giggle, that's good."
"Hey, why are you smiling so ****?"
"What."
"No, no, I said it wrong, it's charming, ouch..."
Most of the city of Guangzhou was destroyed by the war, and the building rented by the sixth branch of the Japanese Anti-War League could not escape the damage. Takahashi Ryoko was wearing a camouflage uniform of the Cadet Army and a steel helmet, and several new members of the Anti-War League The members who have been absorbed are helping the construction workers who are helping them rebuild the building.
These newly developed personnel are all prisoners of war who have been successfully transformed. After Chang Gen's deep digging, they were brainwashed. It can be said that their reliability is quite high. Of course, in this way, for Takahashi, She said that although she was obedient enough, she was not spiritual enough. She had to take care of everything herself, which made her unsatisfied.
The Japanese's indiscriminate bombing of Guangzhou destroyed the good image that Takahashi Ryoko had finally established in the hearts of the local people. During those few nights, she was even stoned from behind. Later, it was Changone who came forward. , two female soldiers were transferred from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to provide her with round-the-clock personal protection, so that she did not encounter any accidents.
Takahashi's face is not very good today. If you look closely, you will find black lines hanging on her face. This is a rare thing for her, because who doesn't know that this Japanese girl's greatest ability is to spend her whole day She was smiling, so the big men on the construction site usually dared to look at her openly and swallowed twice, which was considered a meal. But now, they could only look at her secretly.
The two female soldiers inside Fox Tong have been protecting her closely. They are the only ones on the construction site who know the reason for her black face. They are only responsible for protecting Takahashi's safety. Naturally, they are not willing to help those big men, so they gather together at the side. , we started talking about this matter,
"Xiao Ye, it seems that the young officer's woman is starting to fight back. Tell me whose idea it is."
It is no longer news in the military system that Takahashi Ryoko is interested in the commander-in-chief. Who told this Japanese woman to show it so obviously? She is a young, promising and handsome young officer. How many young girls in Guangzhou are jealous Waiting for the opportunity to kiss "Fangze", how could he allow a foreign woman, or a woman from an enemy country, to compete with him for this already illusory opportunity? Therefore, when these two female soldiers talked about this matter, they In a tone of gloating,
"Who else is there? It must be the eldest lady who just came back from the United States. I heard that she was a spy before, and she was also a double agent." Xiaoye said, looking around with his eyes, and lowered his voice: "But, do Most of the people who are spies are not clean, so I don’t know why the junior officer took a fancy to her."
Shocked by Xiaoye's words, another female soldier quickly stopped her and cursed: "You're crazy. You dare to say such nonsense. If someone hears it, I'll take care of your skin."
Chang Gen is undoubtedly the person who can make the two female soldiers truly fearful. When Xiao Ye heard this, he immediately shut up and stopped talking. However, their eyes betrayed what they were thinking, Xiao Ye's woman , This is a beautiful move. In name, it is to help the commander-in-chief pay attention to the life problems of his subordinates, but in fact, he quietly gives his love rival a showdown. Let me introduce you to the Commander-in-Chief’s closest subordinate, Liu Zheliang. He is now a brigade commander. As for the Major General, he is young and handsome. Are you satisfied?
I don’t want to talk about it, so why do you keep running to the headquarters every three days? You thought it was because of Zheliang. He was the only young and handsome guy in the Commander-in-Chief’s office. Commander-in-Chief, he is also young and handsome, but... The name has been taken care of a long time ago. Please save it.
In this case, naturally only Bai Liusu, a big-breasted, brainless and unabashed guy, can say it. Of course, it is not known to outsiders whether she is really what she appears to be. This is why Takahashi Ryoko has nowhere to vent her sorrow and anger. The main reason for almost internal injury is,
As for the two female soldiers from the Fox Tong Internal Affairs Ministry, Gu Lianyun took the blame for his junior sister. Because of the aircraft carrier incident, Gu Lianyun had been running between the R&D institute and Ouyang Yun's residence all day recently. Pan Meiren and Bai Liusu had time to take care of such trivial matters. Because their position was occupied and they had endocrine disorders, they couldn't help but feel a little emotional. So they ignored Ouyang Yun's original prohibition and teased Liu Zheliang and Takahashi Ryoko. a handful,
The entire city of Guangzhou has turned into a large construction site, with too many vehicles and people coming and going. This naturally brings a lot of trouble to the work of the security forces, and also creates opportunities for some people with ulterior motives.
The Japanese cabinet sacrificed a "dead chrysanthemum", which in the end only verified the rumors of Ouyang Yun's "invulnerability". Emperor Hirohito learned the details of the incident and was so angry that he sat on the throne without saying a word for a long time. The disastrous defeat of the combined fleet made the Japanese army The plan to conquer Fujian and Guangdong in one fell swoop had to be shelved. However, the Japanese did not want to see the Japanese army let the Xuebing army flourish in Fujian and Guangdong. After some stimulating arguments by a group of ministers in the Konoe Cabinet, they finally , a unified opinion, realized that our own side was weak in some aspects, and began to view the Xuebingjun from an equal perspective, and finally launched a so-called "stealing the sky" plan, deciding to use dark means to steal as much as possible. The advanced technology of the Bingjun Army will accumulate energy for the next all-out confrontation. At the same time, attacks in other directions must be strengthened to force the central government of China to allow the Bingjun Army to participate in the war, so that it does not have the time and energy to develop and grow.
It was precisely due to the strategic guiding ideology of the Japanese Konoe Cabinet that the battles in North and Central China began, and gradually began to follow the historical trajectory towards the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Xuzhou, and the Battle of Hankou. The only surprise was that Changsha The battle, the Battle of Guangzhou, was temporarily forgotten by history,
The butterfly effect once again generated huge energy, directly affecting the strategic layout of the two countries. At the same time, a woman who could change Japan's post-war destiny finally surfaced. Of course, at this time she still played a less honorable role. , the Japanese secret service in South China concentrated its energy around her and began to fully launch the so-called "stealing the sky" plan. What the two fox-eyed bosses Mu Jiandie and Chang Gen never expected was that they would The first step in "stealing heaven" is actually to steal people.
Takahashi Ryoko stood quietly in front of a group of turned heads. She saw a Great Wall bicycle with a handful of wild flowers appearing at a corner not far away. Her eyes froze slightly and she couldn't help but murmured: "Finally... Have you started, Takahashi Ryoko, her identity is a bit nostalgic, but I don’t know how long she can exist, maybe, in the near future, she will become the next little love."
