Seeing Nadya come in, Ron stopped talking. Ms. Lucy placed the plate in her hand on the coffee table, turned back and said, "Ron, come and have a taste." Nadya, you can also taste it, it's delicious! ”

Old Sean stretched out his hand and patted Ron's shoulder: "Well, let's not talk about it yet, hurry up and taste it." As he spoke, old Sean stretched out his hand, pinched a small date, and then broke it with both hands, and then said to Ron and Nadya, "Come and see, you can really pull out the silk." ”

"Hey, you can really pull the silk!" Nadya leaned over and stared at the dates in old Sean's hand with wide eyes, and between the two broken dates, a thin, pale golden shreds of sugar could indeed be seen.

Old Sean grabbed a handful of dates and handed them to Nadya. "Taste it, you won't find such delicious dates anywhere else in the United States."

Nadya nodded and smiled in gratitude, then walked over to Ron with the handful of dates and sat down, giving him half of the dates in his hand. Then he also followed the example of old Sean, broke a small date, and then first faced the sun, admiring the thin golden thread. I watched it for a while, until the gold threads broke off by themselves, and then I put it in my little mouth and tasted it carefully. Then she smiled sweetly, then reached out and poked Ron: "It's really sweet, you can taste it!" ”

Ron is actually no stranger to this kind of jujube, because this is the "golden silk jujube" that can be bought in any supermarket in the time and space where he was originally located. However, after going through earth-shaking changes, suddenly seeing this thing in another time and space really made Ron a little trance for a while.

"Hey, what are you thinking? Why did you get stuck? Nadya nudged Ron.

"Ah, suddenly distracted! I'm so sorry. Ron said as he shoved a date that Nadya had handed him into his mouth. Suddenly, a familiar sweet smell filled the entire mouth. "It's really like home." Ron thought......

"nǎinǎi, nǎinǎi, let's eat it too!" The two little girls also began to assert their rights loudly.

Old Sean looked at this scene with a smile, his heart was full of joy, and he couldn't help but think: "If only the war could end immediately and the family could get together!" ”

……

Ron's family is still very conservative in general, so, when it comes time to eat, something goes wrong. When it was time to pray, Ron realized that, well, Nadya didn't know how to pray. In fact, this is also normal, because Nadya was born under the red flag and has been educated in atheism since childhood. This set of "feudal superstitions" had never even been seen before she came to the United States. In fact, even without the atheistic teachings of the Soviets, Nadya would not have been able to use the prayers of Ron's family, because Russia has always belonged to the Orthodox Church, and the Ron's family believes in something derived from Calvin.

"Well, Dadya, Nadya is an Orthodox Christian, and their prayers are different from ours." Ron quickly stepped forward to relieve Nadya. As he spoke, he quietly squeezed his eyes at Nadya. As for why Nadya believes in Orthodox Christianity, this is because in the United States at that time, it was still difficult for many people to accept that a person could not believe in any god. And in Ron's conservative family, not believing in God is almost synonymous with depravity. However, it is not unacceptable to say that the other party and his own belief are not the same denomination. Perhaps in the early days of the Renaissance, there was the idea that heretics are more hateful than infidels, but in the United States in the forties, even in the most conservative places, there would be no such view.

The clever Nadya immediately understood what Ron meant, and immediately assumed an Orthodox prayer posture (this one had been seen before), and then recited the following prayer in Russian in her nightingale-like voice:

"Ron, you're a fool, you don't know how to get someone to prepare it beforehand. You idiot, you must apologize to me in a moment and make amends to me. Otherwise, there is a ...... you look good."

Seeing Nadya's pious appearance, only to hear her say these words in a singing tone, Ron almost burst out laughing.

His mother noticed Ron's disrespect and glared at him fiercely. Ron quickly restrained himself and honestly followed the words, "Amen!" ”

Ron: Their prayer ended with the "Amen." However, Nadya's prayer was not over, she was still "praying" seriously: "Fool, was you glared at by your mother?" You really deserve it...... Amen! ”

Nadya finished her prayer and began to eat dinner.

In a conservative family like Ron, it is absolutely not okay for unmarried men and women to live openly together. So, that night, Nadya slept with Miss Lucy, and Ron slept on his own.

……

Ron was limited in his time at home, and he had to leave early the third morning. Ron's eldest brother took a leave of absence and drove Ron, Nadya and Scott to the train station in his new Cadillac. It can be seen that the economic boom brought about by the war has made him a lot of money.

Then it's the train and then to the airport. Scott had already booked a ticket back for Nadya, and in the afternoon, Nadya took the plane away. Watching Nadya climb the gangway, Ron wanted to shout, "You've got waist-length hair, I'll marry you when I get back!" "But when you think about it, it doesn't feel lucky. Because it seems that in all the stories, as long as you shout this sentence, you can't come back in the end. Then I wanted to shout again: "Wait for me to come back!" But when you think about it, this sentence doesn't seem to be auspicious. For a while, I couldn't think of what to shout, and I couldn't shout "Xiangrui Yufu", right? In the end, Ron just waved at Nadya.

Gently, Nadya went as softly as she came. She waved her hand softly, nearly taking Ron's soul away.

After picking up his feelings, Ron also boarded a transport plane to Pearl Harbor shortly after.

……

This was followed by a long flight to Pearl Harbor, followed by a sleep ride and then a transport plane to Saipan. Some B-29 units are now using this as a base to attack like Rìben. Recently, however, Rì himself has not cared about this place at all, because the "wild bull" Halsey went to the vicinity of Taiwan to make trouble.

Just a few days before Ron's arrival at Pearl Harbor, General Halsey ran off the coast of Taiwan with his fleet. The old "Brute Bull" was originally just going to take a spin and sāo disturb his opponent. This is evident from the name he gave to the operation.

The old guy named the operation "hitandrun". Well, when he first saw the name, Ron wondered if there was a game otaku in the old guy's staff team, because the word who has played Warcraft knows that this means to hit and run and fly a kite. In this day and age, however, the word is better known to mean "traffic hit-and-run." As you can see from the name, what the old guy wants is to take his fleet and run to Rì himself, smoke a guy who is cold, and then run away.

As a result, to say that land-based reconnaissance planes still have an advantage over the fleet, Rì's own reconnaissance plane discovered Halsey's huge fleet of 16 aircraft carriers, 5 battleships, and 58 other ships on the same day. But I don't know if I was scared by such a lineup or what's going on, anyway, except for the reconnaissance plane, Rì himself didn't launch an attack on the US fleet on this day. But think about it, in the recently concluded Battle of the Marianas, Rìben's plane had just seen how ferocious the air defense of the American fleet was. The little planes and pilots that Rì himself had managed to save up were beaten into turkeys by others. As a result, Halsi, who also discovered the Rìben reconnaissance plane and was ready to fight an air defense war, waited for a long time.

"If the mountain does not come, Muhammad will go to the mountain", Rì himself does not come to the door to beat Halsi, Halsi will come to the door to beat Rì himself. The next day, Halsey sent more than 400 planes to attack Rì himself. Rì himself, who was beaten with a bag, was ruthless, and gathered all the planes that could be used in the country, and concentrated more than 1,300 various combat planes to fight with the ghost animals! Although he knew that the old guy slipped away, he went to the Philippines to get a traffic hit-and-run.

However, Halsey did not give up after finishing his vote in the Philippines and turned back to the vicinity of Taiwan. As a result, a large-scale naval and air war broke out.

While the battle was in full swing, Ron's plane was landing on Saipan. No sooner had the plane landed on the tarmac of Saipan's airport than Ron saw a swarm of B-29 bombers taking off from the runway. The planes would fly thousands of kilometers and end up dropping 3 tons of bombs on the head of Rì himself.

"How's the recent bombing going?" After Ron got off the plane, he asked the officer of the 21st Air Force who had come to greet him.

"Ah, it's not going well, it's too windy over there, and the bombing is a mess. Moreover, without fighter escort, we can only fly high for safety, sir, can you guess at what altitude we are bombing? An officer replied.

"I don't know, 7000 meters?" Ron said.

"No, it's 8,000-9,000 meters!"

"Flying so high will increase fuel consumption, right?" Ron asked.

"yes, so we can only carry 3 tons of bombs per plane. It's a pity that the bat bomb doesn't work now, or ......"

The group walked into the pilot's lounge. On one of the radios here, the voice of "Tokyo Rose" (the female announcer of Rì Ben to American Radio) was heard: "The base camp sent out good news: in the battle off the coast of Taiwan, our heroic locust army troops sank a total of 11 US aircraft carriers, two battleships, three cruisers, one cruiser or destroyer, eight damaged aircraft carriers, two battleships, four cruisers, 1 cruiser or destroyer, 13 warships of unknown type, confirmed at least 12 pillars of fire, and shot down 112 US planes. The side lost 312 aircraft. Got the great decision xìng's victory ......"
