Chapter 1172 The king's order is not subject to it

At three o'clock in the afternoon, on the bank of the Xima River in the east of Simao City, the operational conference room of the Southern Yunnan Joint Logistics Command. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yang Bin, Xia Jian, Huang Yuyi, Lin Fei, Dai Zhengliang and other generals stood in front of the large military map and discussed nervously. A straight red line on the map almost runs across the east and west of the map, connecting southern Yunnan on one end and the Babutin Islands in the northern Philippines on the other. This route, which is more than 2,300 kilometers long, is a huge test for all the generals.

Because Chiang Kai-shek suppressed An Yi's "Flying Dragon Plan", An Jiajun's plan to send special detachments to attack coastal transit warehouses and attack oil tankers and material carriers through the Nanyang Intelligence Station could not be implemented. With the attitude of "the king's order is not subject to it", An Yi gritted his teeth and launched the air raid plan in the "Flying Dragon Plan" in violation of the order, and secretly dispatched four large bombers of the Air Sixth Regiment to carry out the secret operation of bombing the 10,000-ton oil tanker.

In the past six months, the Sixth Air Force Regiment has been training hard day and night around this operation, paying the high price of crashing two planes and sacrificing more than 10 outstanding brothers, just for this day. If Chiang Kai-shek's strict order is to cancel the operation, neither An Yi nor the officers and men of the Southwest Air Force will be able to accept it, and the arduous efforts of the past six months and the huge manpower and material resources invested in it will be in vain, and the blow to the morale of the army will not be ordinarily great.

Therefore, An Yi would rather take the greatest risk to send a four-engine large bomber that took three years to develop with a huge investment and three years to launch an experimental strike on the energy transportation line more than 2,000 kilometers away, which is also a practical test of hard work over the past few years, and an indispensable strategic exploration for the future Sino-Japanese all-out war. It has important and far-reaching strategic significance.

After reading the map, everyone returned to their seats and sat down.

Yang Bin turned to Huang Yuyi: "Are the officers and men of the Air Sixth Regiment participating in this long-range bombing mission ready?" If there is anything that needs the help of our headquarters, please bring it up, and I promise to meet it one by one. ”

Huang Yuyi said with a smile: "Everything is ready, just wait for an order." The bombing mission was carried out by the No. 0 plane, and the crew was all composed of elite lieutenants of the 6th Air Force Regiment who had a flight record of more than 1,000 hours of this type. Liu Songling, commander of the Sixth Air Regiment, has assured me that their commanders and fighters have long been looking forward to making meritorious contributions, and in the previous training of high-altitude bombing targets, the crew has maintained a 100 percent hit rate, and this time the small oil tanker will not be able to run! ”

Yang Bin nodded again and again, Xia Jian was relieved: "That's good, that's good!" The commander has great hopes for our operation, if we can successfully take out the small oil tanker in Southeast Asia, we can confuse the sight of the *** people and share the huge pressure on North China. In addition, letting the great powers and the small *** eat the dog is conducive to involving the deployment of the Japanese army's forces locally, so that it cannot concentrate on one point, which is of great benefit to the country and the people. ”

Huang Yuyi and Lin Fei glanced at each other, and a confident smile appeared on their faces. For this mission, the Southwest Air Force has absolute confidence to complete it beautifully, which is by no means blind confidence, but has thousands of hours of actual combat training as a foreshadowing.

......

In Baoding, An Yi had lunch with the generals of the 29th Army, and asked the brothers to hold a meeting with Song Zheyuan and others to discuss and improve the exercise plan, but he took Shen Fengdao and quietly came to the code-breaking team led by Wu Zhefu to listen to the report on the results.

"Since coming to Baoding at the end of November last year, we have listened to almost all the ciphers in North China, and after our hard and unremitting efforts, we have basically mastered the code rules between the army and the consulates, and the decipherment rate has reached almost 100 percent." Wu Zhefu introduced.

An Yi nodded happily. With the miniaturization of electron tubes and the continuous research of transistors, computer research in southern Sichuan has progressed in an orderly manner, and now the new generation of laboratory machines has shrunk to about four square meters, the weight has been reduced to 600 kilograms, and the speed of operations per second has increased to 100,000 times.

Due to the great importance attached to computer technology, the scientists from Europe and the United States who participated in this research signed confidentiality agreements, and signed a ten-year long-term work contract with the southern Sichuan government at the beginning of the establishment of the project team.

Other research technicians who need to keep their radar, radio, semiconductor materials and transistor research secrets from the outside world are also eligible for the same treatment, and according to the work agreement, they will need to work in Syria for at least five years before they can leave. And when leaving, everyone has to sign a follow-up confidentiality agreement, and once there is a leak, it will be dealt with in accordance with the military regulations and military discipline of An Jiajun.

Wu Zhefu's wife, Wang Lingyu, is also an excellent expert in cipher code decipherment, she said with a smile: "In fact, as early as the early twenties during the Washington Navy Conference, the United States successfully deciphered the diplomatic code, so it had the upper hand in the negotiations. It stands to reason that with this lesson, *** people should attach great importance to their communication security, for example, they should change the way passwords are compiled, but in fact this is not the case. Since the twenties, Britain and the United States and other countries have been deciphering the diplomatic secret cables, and they can even decipher them simultaneously at the same time as receiving the secret cables. We have absorbed the advanced experience of our European and American counterparts, and we have a high-speed computing tool called a computer, and now we can also decipher the ciphertext synchronously. ”

Wu Zhefu remembered an interesting story at this time: "A few days ago, at a banquet held at the US Consulate in Dongjiaomin Lane, Beiping, to celebrate President Roosevelt's re-election, Major Domond, the military attache in Beiping, once said a joke: After the 226 Mutiny this year, the United States estimated that China would send a copy of the incident to the embassy in the United States, and the incident was reported in the newspaper, but the government and the army demanded that no matter what, the code should be used. By the way, he mastered the new cipher code that the Japanese side had just adopted. It's funny to say that the Americans use clear codes except for secret contacts, but the *** people have not been able to grasp any information about the Americans; And the *** people who use the password to send reports in everything are eaten to death by the Americans, which may be the so-called extreme thing! ”

An Yi laughed when he heard this: "So, what shouldn't be encrypted, don't encrypt it." If something is used for a long time, it will have a pattern to find, and it will naturally make people see the flaws. We must strengthen education in this regard within our military and political departments, and with the best people as a lesson from the past, I believe that our secrecy work will get better and better. ”

It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon when the talks ended, and the weather was getting darker. An Yi was a little worried about the situation in southern Yunnan, and just wanted to go to the telecommunications room to interrogate the implementation of the plan, Lin Yaodong came to report: "Commander, someone is looking for someone outside the headquarters station, and he was stopped at the gate by the sentry!" ”

An Yi was very strange: "What's the matter, who knows that I will go back to Baoding today?" ”

Lin Yaodong smiled: "I don't know how she knows...... Commander, you can't think of who it is, even I was stunned for a moment when I heard the name before I reacted. ”

Seeing that An Yi still looked dazed, Lin Yaodong said with his eyebrows fluttering: "It's that Zhou Ziwei, that chick is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, and it matches the commander and the talented woman...... A month ago, Zhou Ziwei successfully passed our political trial, and I thought she had gone to Syria with the first few batches of students who went south to receive training! I saw that she wanted to talk to you about something, so I stared at Baoding and saw that you were back, so I hurried over. ”

An Yi gave him a blank look: "Xiao Jiu, why have you become such a chicken woman?" This kind of joke can't be made, and innocent girls can't be ruined in our mouths...... Well, Song Mingxuan and they should still be in a meeting at this time, Xiao Jiu, you go and bring Miss Zhou to my residence, Lao Shen, you go to the cafeteria to inform you, the weather is cold today, arrange a hot pot, and let the brothers prepare to send it to my room. ”

Lin Yaodong took the order and left, Shen Fengdao said with a smile: "This Zhou Ziwei is really in a hurry, the two meetings coincided with meal time, and it was not okay to leave her for a meal." I wonder what news she will bring this time? ”

An Yi shook his head: "No matter what, Miss Zhou should be regarded as the object of our unity." After the meeting that day, I specifically inquired about the brothers at the Beiping Station of the Fourth Hall, Miss Zhou is not only the niece of Wu Ziyu, but also the niece of Ms. Lu Bicheng, who is known as the "last female lyricist in the past three hundred years", and her Zhou family itself is also friendly with Xu Shichang, Cao Kun, Xiong Xiling, Cao Rulin, Jin Yunpeng and Yuan Shikai's son Yuan Keding, and has a certain influence on the world. Miss Zhou's identity is special, and it is especially rare to have a strong patriotic heart, which we must not underestimate. ”

After Shen Fengdao left, An Yi came to the telecommunications room, contacted the southern Yunnan side, and learned that the plan was being carried out in an orderly manner, so he let go of his worries and returned to the small building where he was.

An Yi's residence is in a small four-story western-style building behind the headquarters building. This small western-style building is an ordinary residence in the Baoding camp, usually as a residence for the generals of the 17th Army who came to attend the meeting. The first floor is used as a place for hospitality, the second and third floors are where the guards live, and An Yi, Shen Fengdao and Lin Yaodong live on the fourth floor.

At this time, in the hall on the first floor, a hot pot has been set up, and the guards are shuttling back and forth, bringing all kinds of side dishes to the two four-story wooden shelves next to the table. Lin Yaodong accompanied Zhou Ziwei and was talking on the sofa in the corner of the hall. When An Yi approached, he happened to hear Lin Yaodong talking about his wife Ou Chuer and Feng Jieyun, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "What are you talking about?" So happy? ”

When Zhou Ziwei saw An Yi, a hint of blush appeared on her face, and she stood up in a bit of a panic:

"General An, we are talking about the family affairs of the generals of the An Family Army. General Lin is talking about your wife Ou Chuer and Feng Jieyun are beautiful and generous, one is to sort out the industry and commerce of southern Sichuan in an orderly manner, and the other is erudite and talented, and has written many novels and essays, which are famous all over the world. ”

Today's Zhou Ziwei is wearing a black lapel long sweater, a string of purple Buddha beads around her neck, and a pair of black trousers, which looks modern and fashionable, giving An Yi a feeling of time and space confusion. Being able to see such a unique dress in this era of blue clothes and black skirts gave An Yi a new understanding of Zhou Ziwei's maverick.

An Yi smiled and beckoned Zhou Ziwei to sit down at the hot pot table, and then asked Shen Fengdao and Lin Yaodong to sit down together. Shen Fengdao put garlic and coriander in the sesame oil dish in front of everyone, sprinkled some MSG from the Xufu Food Factory, and instructed the guards to add vegetables to the hot pot with boiling peppers and red oil.

Each beauty is a unique sight, even during a meal. Although Zhou Ziwei is a northerner, she is surprisingly not afraid of chili peppers, although she was once so spicy that she fanned her mouth with her hand again and again, she still ate it happily, which made An Yi look at it with great joy and a surprisingly good appetite.

Halfway through eating, An Yi turned his head and asked Zhou Ziwei what he meant: "Miss Zhou, I don't know what happened to me this time?" ”

Zhou Ziwei was almost full at this time, and when she heard An Yi's question, she gracefully took out her handkerchief and wiped her mouth, before answering:

"General An, after I went back last time, I went to my grandfather's place and did a lot of work, but my grandfather insisted on staying in Beiping, saying that he was too old and didn't want to toss anymore. My third aunt looked calm and breezy, saying that she was practicing everywhere and didn't care about changing places. My parents were a little excited, but they were worried that they would not be able to find a suitable livelihood when they arrived in Syria. Our Zhou family in North China is mainly engaged in cloth and daily necessities, in addition to a pawnshop and calligraphy and painting shop, although the situation is now unstable, all businesses are beyond their means, but there is finally something busy, if you go to Syria, I really don't know what to do. ”

An Yi nodded: "I can understand the mood of Ziyu Dashuai, but the Japanese are rampant, Pingjin is indeed not a place to stay for a long time, Miss Zhou has time, you might as well enlighten a few more words." Ziyu has been in Sichuan for many years, and I believe that he will have a trace of affection for that side of the water and soil, but the situation is still unclear, so there is a wait-and-see heart. As for your Zhou family, in fact, there is an urgent need for capital injection in southern Sichuan, and there are many, many businesses that make money, not to mention anything else, just say thermal power plants, steel plants, machinery factories, etc., the products are in short supply, the more the merrier! I dare to guarantee that as long as you go to southern Sichuan, the opportunity to make a fortune is everywhere, it depends on how to grasp it! ”

Zhou Ziwei's eyes lit up: "Really? Can private capital enter these fields? But without technology and corresponding machinery and equipment, how can this factory be established? ”

An Yi patiently explained: "Our southern Sichuan government can use technology and land to invest in shares, and the maximum stake does not exceed 49% of the total shares, so as to ensure the absolute controlling stake of investors." At the same time, now the production equipment required by all walks of life in southern Sichuan, we can almost produce by ourselves, once the funds are in place, we can procure, or it will not be long before the production capacity can be formed. If the working capital is insufficient, our Southwest Bank can also provide low-interest loans, so it can be said that we have thought of it for investors every step of the way. These provisions began to be implemented many years ago, why are the business people in North China still not aware of our investment promotion policy in southern Sichuan? ”

"I don't know!"

Zhou Ziwei shook his head, the expression on his face was excited: "If that's the case, our Zhou family can really move to Xufu." On the first day of this month, Grandpa Duan passed away in Shanghai, and my grandfather mourned, saying that the old man had gone again. Before Grandpa Duan left, he sent a telegram to my grandfather, asking my grandfather not to be used by *** people, saying that *** violent behavior has reached a point where feelings cannot be felt and reason is indescribable. Our country can only save itself with one heart and one mind. He also said, 'It is better to seek others than yourself.'" 'The whole country should actively prepare for war and work together to deal with it, although there are ten ***, why be afraid? My grandfather was deeply infected, and he was determined not to be provoked by traitors, not to ask about the world, and to live in seclusion. ”

An Yi sighed faintly: "The demeanor of my predecessors makes my generation admire. In order to avoid harassment by the Japanese, Duan Gongzhiquan went south from Tianjin to Shanghai in 33 years, where he lived in the mansion of General Chen Tiaoyuan on Xiafei Road in the French Concession. Zhiquan's predecessor passed away, and the chairman of the committee was heartbroken, and ordered a state funeral, a funeral according to Buddhist etiquette, and the flag at half-mast in Shanghai to mourn. The last words of Zhiquan's predecessors on their deathbed include the 'eight don'ts': Don't start a political dispute because of what I see; Don't talk about empty talk and ignore practice; Don't waste people's money on things that are not urgent; Don't believe in radical words and deeds and shake the state book yourself; those who talk about diplomacy should not forget to consolidate national defense; those who educate people should not forget to preserve the essence of the country; those who govern the family should not abandon the etiquette and religion of the state; and those who seek scholars should not indulge in the splendor of fashion. This clause has won my heart! ”

Shen Fengdao was originally eating silently, but when he heard An Yi's words, he suddenly suggested: "Miss Zhou may be able to use Premier Duan's example to persuade Ziyu Dashuai." Zhiquan's predecessors could not bear the harassment of the Japanese and went south to live in Shanghai. Now that Zhiquan's predecessors are gone, it is estimated that Ziyu Dashuai will be targeted by the Japanese again, and there will be a steady stream of lobbyists. Since Ziyu can't get peace, it's better to move to Xufu and cultivate his mind quietly. The medical and health conditions of Syria are currently the most advanced in the country, especially penicillin and other drugs, Beiping, Tianjin and other places are limited supply, only southern Sichuan has been popularized to the county hospital, there is really a disease, you can get medical treatment nearby, far better than staying in North China to breathe in the nose. ”

Zhou Ziwei was greatly moved when she heard this, and nodded again and again.

After dinner, An Yi and Zhou Ziwei chatted about the recent situation of students in Pingjin and other places, and learned that the universities in Beiping were suspended for one hour the day before yesterday, and expressed their gratitude to the Japanese military exercises.

Before leaving, when An Yi asked Zhou Ziwei why he knew his whereabouts, Zhou Zi smiled and said: "Our Zhou family has a cloth shop in Baoding, I just came here to check the accounts on behalf of my father, and I wanted to try my luck here before leaving, but I didn't expect you to go back to Baoding, what luck!" ”

An Yi laughed dumbly, it turned out that the truth of the truth was so simple, and he was still suspicious, thinking that he was being targeted.

After sending Zhou Ziwei away, An Yi found Shen Fengdao and Wu Zhefu to discuss the fact that the business people in North China did not know about the investment promotion policy in southern Sichuan, and finally sent the summarized opinions to the Syrian Government Appeasement Office by telegram, asking for a solution as soon as possible.
