Long Yun would actually find himself to invest, and Li Kongrong had a big idea. After www.biquge.info the Anti-Japanese War, domestic capital had no place to go, not at home but in the stock market in the Shanghai Concession, and many funds were invested in kind, hoarding necessities for life and war, making the isolated island extremely prosperous. After Nanyang was occupied by the Japanese army, Nanyang capital had nowhere to go, and many of it also went to Shanghai, but during the period they wore a legal coat. The navy has also gained a foothold in the United States, and if the navy directs these massive funds to invest in the United States, there will be no need to worry about military spending in the future.

Li Kongrong, who decided to set up an investment brokerage company, wrote down this idea and then talked about other things with Gong Zizhi and others. There is nothing to talk about the naval aviation stationed in Yunnan, one is Kunming Airport, the other is Ruili Airport, one is bright and one is dark. In addition to ensuring the safety of the Yunnan-Yunnan-Burma highways, it can also attack Sichuan and even the front line if necessary; The covert only ensures the safety of Yunnan Province and the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and must keep the contacts with local factions secret.

Naturally, the navy is responsible for aircraft accessories, fuel, ammunition, etc., and Yunnan only provides places and provisions. If Chongqing acquiesces in this matter, Gong Zizhi knows that he hopes that the more planes the navy will station, the better, and if Chongqing opposes it, it will try to reduce the scale as much as possible, and it will not leave the province, especially not to enter the airspace of Sichuan and the front line, so as not to commit Chang Kaishen's taboo.

Li Kongrong held that regardless of whether Chongqing agrees or not, there are 120 planes, which is a single aircraft carrier's aircraft force, including spare pilots and spare planes, and there are four squadrons of 24 people, and the other squadron is a spare plane. Because carrier-based attack planes will also be stationed in Yunnan, the 60 kilograms, 250 kilograms, and 500 kilograms of aerial bombs needed for them Li Kongrong suggested that it is best to produce them in Yunnan, and the navy will provide drawings, fuses, and funds.

Long Yun wanted to rebuild the air force, and he was not only not excluded from the production of aerial bombs, but Gong Zizhi was only worried that the arsenal did not have so much steel to make aerial bombs.

The framework for the stationing of naval aviation has long been negotiated, and this time it is only a matter of sorting out and determining; Since the Marine Corps is not involved in operational issues, it is not difficult to designate a certain place to be used as a training base. What they really want to talk about is expanding the strength of the Yunnan air force from one squadron to a 72-man brigade. After Gong Zizhi raised this question, the scene quieted down, and they were worried that Li Kongrong would not agree - according to Zhou Yingcong's statement, the plane cost more than 50,000 US dollars each, and the pilot was almost twice as much, so it would cost more than 11 million US dollars, which was too expensive.

Gong knew that he was worried about the more than $11 million, and Li Kongrong would not agree, but Li Kongrong knew that after the quality of the R-2800 engine was stable, the life span would soon reach 1,000 hours, and the most expensive thing in pilot training was not the loss of the trainer plane, but the loss of the carrier-based aircraft, and the cost of tens of thousands of dollars per engine was not 20 cents a gallon. At present, it is estimated that the cost of 600 hours of training for pilots does not exceed 50,000 US dollars, and the engine life will be further reduced. Moreover, Long Yun's request will not increase the upfront cost of the navy, and the training of overseas Chinese pilots is exactly the same as that of Yunnan pilots, except that at the end of the Anti-Japanese War, Yunnan pilots will be returned to Long Yun, and there should be thousands of pilots in the navy at that time, and there will be nothing to go back to seventy-two people.

"No problem." After a long enough silence, Li Kongrong agreed to this request when Gong Zizhi and the others looked at each other. "But there are two things, one is not an example. After the end of the Anti-Japanese War, experienced pilots were as expensive as the same weight of gold, seventy-two pilots fifty kilograms each, that is, 3,600 kilograms of gold, that is, 96,000 taels, which was really too expensive. ”

Li Kongrong came to the conclusion that these people were worth 96,000 taels of gold, and Gong Zizhi immediately smiled embarrassedly. Li Kongrong said again: "The second is the training camp in Longchuan, 7,000 people is too few, and there is only one brigade, I think it is still 15,000 people, so it is enough to gather a division." If Chongqing would see it, 7,000 people would see it, and 15,000 people would see it, and it would make no difference. ”

Gong Zizhi thought that Li Kongrong would make other requests, but seeing that he was just going to expand the Marine Corps training camp, he said: "Expansion is not a problem, but 15,000 people have entered the country from Burma. The reason why it is said that it is not more than 7,000 is that Nanyang Machinery is a few thousand, and any more will arouse suspicion. ”

"Seven thousand people just to hide from the Chongqing spies in Wan Town?" Li Kongrong asked with a smile.

"The main reason is this." The dragon rope ancestor who spoke, he is Huang Baitao's counterpart contact. "Then I'm afraid that there are too many soldiers and run out, Longchuan is not far from Wan Town, once they bump into it, the secret can't be hidden."

"My soldiers won't run blind." Huang Baitao said, "Seven thousand people are really not good to train, at least one division is needed." ”

"But now we only have 7,000 houses." Long Rope Ancestor didn't want to question Huang Baitao's affirmation, so he had to talk about the house.

"There are not enough houses, so we can build them ourselves." Huang Baitao said, "The troops also entered in batches, and it is not a house for 15,000 people at once, you only need to provide land." ”

"Okay then." Gong Zizhi stopped Long Rope Ancestor, who was still about to speak, "General Huang will not use these houses for too long, and the cultivated land will be returned to the Yi people after two years, as long as there is no breach of contract at that time, so that we will also have an explanation for the local leaders." ”

"Oh, it turns out that it is the place of the Yi people?" Li Kongrong interjected, he actually didn't know much about western Yunnan.

"Yes. This is the result of Chairman Long's personal consultation with the local chiefs, there is little land in the mountains, all of them grow grain, and it is not easy to rent it for too long to buy grain. And then ......" Gong Zizhi glanced at Huang Baitao and laughed dryly. "There is a way that after the army, there is a fierce year, and the local leaders are worried about ......"

"There's nothing to worry about." When Gong Zizhi laughed, Huang Baitao understood what he meant, the most worrying thing for the locals is military discipline, and it is common for the garrison to harm the place. "My subordinates will regard the honor of the soldier as their life, and will not do anything that damages the honor and personality of the soldier."

"Good. Good. After talking for a few hours, Gong Zizhi knew that he knew something about Li Kongrong and Huang Baitao. Huang Baitao is the commander of the Marine Corps, although he does not know his origin, but he does have the demeanor of a soldier. "I'll agree to it for the time being."

"That's good." Li Kongrong was very happy to see that the last article was finished, he made a gesture to Lu Ruping, and the agreement drawn up in a while was sent up, Gong Zizhi and the four of them saw that Gong Zizhi signed on it, and Li Kongrong signed on the navy side, and after signing, afternoon tea and champagne were also delivered, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while.

"I would like to invite Brother Hansheng to come and review the officer corps at an appropriate time." Huang Baitao was the happiest, and his face was red after drinking the champagne.

"Officer Corps?" Li Kongrong heard 'timely' as 'four o'clock', and he thought that he was going to go out to see Lin Dingli in the evening, so he said: "Then set off at four o'clock, haven't you arranged it in advance?" ”

"No arrangement, no arrangement." It's three o'clock now, Huang Baitao didn't expect Li Kongrong to say that he would leave, "What is usual, what is now." ”

"Hmm." Li Kongrong nodded. He summoned Lu Ruping over and asked him to prepare the car within half an hour.

The so-called Marine Corps Officer Corps is at the Pokfulam Mary Hospital, located on the western side of the main island of Hong Kong. This hospital was bought and taken over by the Navy, ostensibly responsible for treating the wounded sent from the mainland, but in fact it was a training ground for the officer corps. It is very remote there, but fortunately, the island of Hong Kong is not big, and it used to be more than ten kilometers. After half an hour of turbulence, Li Kongrong rushed to Queen Mary Hospital, looking at the sea outside the hospital, he smiled, "It's very good to recuperate here." ”

"It's okay." Li Kongrong's words Huang Baitao didn't know how to answer, in his opinion, this is a poor mountain and bad water, and Hong Kong is an inconspicuous small city, not as good as Shanghai.

The car stopped at the entrance of the hospital, and at the front was a Gothic-style building with three floors and a width of five or six rooms, and at the back were three rows of bungalows with some wooden training facilities. Zeng Guosheng saw that Li Kongrong was a little different, so he said: "This was originally a church hospital, and after we took over, we built a few rows of houses in the back. ”

While speaking, several people had already walked through the hospital building to the wooden fence surrounding the bungalow at the back, and two guards in unranked military uniforms suddenly flashed out of a wooden shed in the bar, they first saluted Li Kongrong and others, and then asked: "Password?" ”。

"Order: Hindenburg." Huang Baitao naturally walked in the front, his expression was extremely serious when he returned the order, and when the sentry opened the fence gate to let him go, he ordered again: "The chief will review and gather immediately." ”

The rhythmic bell rang immediately. Li Kongrong subconsciously looked at the watch: 4:51. The front row of houses in the fence is a classroom, and the field between the second row is a training ground, and then it is estimated that it is the dormitory of the officer corps. Huang Baitao waited on the training ground, and soon everyone in the classroom ran out, and then the officer's dormitory.

When everyone arrived, the officer on duty took a roll call with a lot of charm in Henan, and Huang Baitao asked them to rest for a while and said: "Brothers often ask me, who is paying for us?" I used to be difficult to answer, but now I can tell you that it is the Navy that raises us. This is the famous Captain Li Hansheng of the Navy, he is my commander and your commander. Salute! ”

After Huang Baitao's brief introduction, he led everyone to salute Li Kongrong, and then he said: "Please review the instructions." ”

"It's all there, stand up, take a break!" Li Kongrong was not stage frightened, he looked at the more than 200 people standing in front of him one by one, all of them were wearing green military uniforms without titles, and they could not see the military rank, but they could see their age: most of them were in their twenties, a few were in their thirties and forties, some still had scars on their faces, a few were missing their left hands, and some were missing one eye. But without exception, everyone's faces were extremely dark, only the forehead was white, their expressions were extremely resolute, and there was a different kind of determination in their eyes. These are the people who came down from the battlefield.

"Name? Which troops? What rank? Li Kongrong looked satisfied, and stepped forward to look at a one-eyed officer and asked directly.

"Report chief: Xiaguan Jiang Zixiang, the third battalion of the 284th Regiment of the 48th Division, the deputy battalion of the major." Jiang Zixiang replied with his chest straight, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke in a Shandong accent, but his voice was not loud.

"I can't hear you!" Li Kongrong looked displeased, "Haven't you eaten enough?" Be louder!! ”

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan Jiang Zixiang, deputy battalion of the third battalion of the 284th Regiment of the 48th Division." Jiang Zixiang shouted loudly, this time it was deafening, and the sound echoed throughout the playground.

"Good. You? Li Kongrong nodded with satisfaction, patted Jiang Zixiang's shoulder, and then asked the next one.

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan closed the court, the lieutenant and company commander of the 159th Regiment of the 953rd Division." Cantonese shouted loudly, this one is the Cantonese army.

"You?" Li Kongrong pointed to the next one.

"Report commander: Xia Guan Sun Shixiu, lieutenant and company commander of the 48th Regiment of the 283rd Division." It was another Shandong accent, and Li Kongrong could see that most of the tall people were from Shandong.

"You?"

"Report to the commander: Xiaguan Tao Zhenhua, the colonel and staff officer of the 112th Division."

"You?"

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan Wang Fengyou, second lieutenant platoon commander of the 288th Regiment of the 48th Division."

"Report Commander: Xiaguan Cao Fuhan, Captain and Company Commander of the 644th Regiment of the 108th Division."

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan Deng Guoyuan, 160th Division Special Service Company 1, warrant officer special service chief."

"Report commander: Xiaguan Wang Qimin, captain and company commander of the 48th Regiment of the 288th Division."

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan Gao Zhengyu, the platoon commander of the 112th Regiment of the 668th Division."

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan Li Junduo, the baggage battalion of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, the lieutenant and the deputy company."

"Report to the commander: Xiaguan Xingyuzhou, lieutenant and company commander of the 48th Regiment of the 287th Division."

"Report chief: Xiaguan Xu Guangde, lieutenant and deputy of the 287th Regiment of the 48th Division."

"Report to the chief: Xiaguan Wu Shouting, lieutenant platoon commander of the 48th Regiment of the 283rd Division."

"Report Commander: Xiaguan Li Yunong, Major Battalion Commander of the 344th Regiment of the 58th Division."

……

More than 200 people asked Li Kongrong one by one, and the process took half an hour, and by the time he finished asking, it was already dark. The two hundred and nineteen people, except for the officers from the 48th Division of the 10th Army, were from all other units from all over the world, and a few were from the Central Teaching Corps and the 88th Division. After asking the sergeant squad leader of the last 48th Division, Li Kongrong returned to the middle of the playground and began to lecture, at this time the headlights on the playground had been turned on, but the lights were too weak, and only shadows could be seen at a distance of a few meters.

"There are rules in any army, and the rules in the navy are simple. Article 1: Kill the devil! Kill the devil! Kill the devil ruthlessly!! Therefore, it is better to die in battle than to surrender; The second one, brother! Brothers! We are brothers! Therefore, anyone who betrays his brother and wants to sell the entire navy will be killed, no matter where he has fled or what his identity is.

The former does not require much, and the latter must be detailed. Li Kongrong looked at the more than two hundred shadows in front of him and began to emphasize the rules of the navy. The Navy has always been non-involved in partisan disputes, but the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop. Both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party have developed their influence in the navy. National dang, during the Northern Expedition, we agreed with Chang Kaishen that the party headquarters would not enter the navy, and the navy joined the national dang in the name of all, and the result was that the spies infiltrated the Mawei Military Academy, resulting in the expulsion of all students in one class; The Communists infiltrated the navy earlier, and before the Northern Expedition, their people set up a new naval club at the Yantai Naval Academy, and many of the cadets joined the Communist Youth League, and a few joined the Communist Party.

Whether you like the Kuomintang or the Communist Party is your own business, but if you are a member of the Navy and join a political party, then I have to ask you: Is the Navy important or is the interests of your party important? What would you do if your party ordered you to hijack a warship or even blow up and sink it? If you don't blow up, you will be punished by the party, and your future will be worrying not to mention your life; If you blow it up, you will kill hundreds or thousands of brothers in the same ship.

I'm not kidding. In Shanghai in the 14th year of the Republic of China, a national DANG cadet sent to the navy for internship by the Guangdong Huangpu Naval Academy blew up the Tongji training ship once, but fortunately it was not sunk, but dozens of people died; A little earlier, in the sixth year of the Republic of China, Cheng Biguang, commander of the naval fleet, received 500,000 yuan from Sun Yat-sen in Shanghai, and immediately ordered the 1st Fleet to go south to protect the Fa, passing through the waters of Xiangshan in Zhejiang, and then carrying the Yuzhang and Tong'an, which were sailing here, to the south. When this fleet arrived in Huangpu, there were many people who opposed Sun in Guangdong, because they were worried that the military would be unstable and the fleet went north, so there was a war to seize the ships, and the various factions of the navy turned their faces and saw blood from then on.

The Navy kills the Navy, and its own people kill its own people, and this is the lesson of the Navy's involvement in partisan struggles. What I want to emphasize is that the navy is only a navy, it is not a tool for you to curry favor with your own party, nor is it a stepping stone for you to get promoted and make a fortune, she would rather stay overseas forever than get involved in partisan disputes, she would rather raise her own military expenses or even dissolve it on the spot than accept any party headquarters to settle in the fleet.

Therefore, if any of you are a national or a communist, please show your identity in the next time, and if you don't want to give up this identity, then please quit; If you don't want to give up your identity and join the navy in order to secretly report the situation of the navy to your party, or to develop members in the navy, both of them are betraying brothers, I, Li Kongrong, on behalf of the navy, hereby promise: Not only you, but also your family, wife and children will definitely die a miserable death, no matter where you hide or what relationship you have climbed. ”

Li Kongrong's voice was low, he couldn't see everyone's faces clearly, and everyone couldn't see his face clearly, everything could only be felt by heart. After a short pause, he continued: "I shouldn't have said such things when we met for the first time, but my habit is to say ugly things first, and do whatever you say, otherwise what's the difference between talking and farting?"

The navy was almost wiped out in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and the rebuilt navy must learn the lessons of the past. Over the past two years, we've learned that the most important lesson is that a navy is a navy, and everything else is an outsider. Nowadays, our military expenses are self-funded, and we do not need to ask anyone to allocate funds to build ships and pay salaries; We have our own war strategy, our own plan to occupy the main island of Japan, and we do not need to listen to anyone's orders; Each of us is a brother in life and death, and no one will abandon or betray anyone.

This is the Navy, and the Marine Corps ......, if the Navy is an eagle, then the Marine Corps is the talon of the eagle; If the Navy is a snake, then the Marine Corps is the tooth of a snake. Each of you came down from the battlefield, with scars of gunsmoke, and for various reasons, you came. I welcome you to come, to be my brothers, and I hope that you and others will be brothers too, and then we will all defeat Japan together—destroy its fleet, land on its bays, occupy those broken islands, and return back all that they have done to us! ”

In the darkness, Li Kongrong's instructions came to an abrupt end, and after being silent for a long time, he suddenly saluted the two hundred and nineteen people in front of him, and he saluted everyone solemnly and returned the salute. It's just that although his Chinese language is standard, there are still many people who don't understand what he said specifically, and when he disbands after he leaves, many people ask: "What did the chief say just now?" ”

"What?" Major Shan Zheyuan, the officer on duty and also from the 48th Division, was the only one who was not questioned by Li Kongrong, but he was standing beside Li Kongrong, so he heard the instructions very clearly, and he said briefly: "The chief said that from now on, everyone will be brothers, and if anyone betrays his brother, he will let whoever kills the whole family." ”

"Medium!" Someone in the crowd immediately raised his thumbs, "The yellow bald man didn't lie to me, this chief is estimated to be stronger than Xu Dashuai......"

Before he could finish his words, another person said, "What a big truth?" You will blindly estimate that Xu Dashuai will give us food and wear this? All the wealth he made went to his little mother. (To be continued.) )
