Do you cherish the honor?

Yang Chao really doesn't care about this, he is a realist, extremely practical, he has been maintaining a good image in the past, that is because a good image will bring benefits, but when destroying this image will bring greater benefits, Yang Chao will not hesitate to break it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

What's more, Yang Chao believes that this sneak attack may not have such a big impact, of course, the damage to the country's reputation is certain, but reputation is only valuable in peacetime, when facing the moment of life and death, reputation is too extravagant, I believe that those so-called gentlemen in Europe and the United States during World War II will not care about this, as long as China can save them, they will not hesitate to kneel down and hug their thighs.

During World War II, Roosevelt could conceal the news and let the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor, Churchill could directly deprive British investors of their private property rights, and sell a large number of British private investments in the United States in exchange for scarce dollar foreign exchange, French combat hero Petain could surrender to Germany, Britain and the United States could actively cooperate with Soviet Russia, and Churchill was born in a noble family with a long history, and Roosevelt had a good reputation as a gentleman.

Yang Chao can't be worse than these people, so Yang Chao, like Pan Xun, doesn't have the slightest psychological burden, and even Pan Xun is under more pressure in his heart.

Of course, Pan Xun's pressure does not come from the moral level, but from success or failure.

Despite the assurances of the commander of the navy, it is impossible for the Americans to hit China under the most unfavorable circumstances, and it can be said that they are invincible, but Pan Xun is still very nervous, and people have this natural reaction before making major events, and every husband who stands in front of the delivery room and waits for the birth of the child cannot be like a peaceful lake, and Pan Xun is like a husband waiting for the birth of the child at this time, waiting for the news from the front.

When Cheng Biguang asked to see him, Pan Xun couldn't wait to meet him, and what he got was the well-prepared news from the front, and Cheng Biguang asked Pan Xun to give the final order.

"I see."

Pan Xunchang took a breath and made the last decision.

"Tomorrow morning, launch a general attack."

Pan Xun postponed the combat time by one day, from Saturday to Sunday, because it was indeed very late today, and there was not enough time to launch the operation, and because he needed a day to make some diplomatic preparations, he had no psychological pressure, which did not mean that he was really shameless.

Another, more important reason is that after many days of hard work, the US Atlantic Fleet finally passed through the Panama Canal in its entirety.

Soon Pan Xun expressed his attitude to the European countries: "The US Atlantic Fleet crossed the Panama Canal into the Pacific region, and my country is very sorry for this, and this move by the United States is tantamount to a serious provocation to China's national security. It is also the last attitude of the United States towards the Hawaiian region, and it is clear that the Americans intend to illegally suppress the legitimate demands of the Hawaiian people. Japan will also fulfill its commitment to strike at the US military forces in the Pacific at any time. This is the maintenance of China's national security. ”

Pan Xun's statement shocked the European countries, they immediately reported the matter to the United States, and the United States also sent the news to Hawaii, but unfortunately Hawaii did not pay attention to it at all, because they simply did not believe that the Chinese could attack them from thousands of miles away, even if it was an airship bombing, it was impossible, unless the Chinese did not plan to let their airship go back.

So the U.S. military in Hawaii conveyed the U.S. government's orders to all levels, but most of the departments were not notified at all, because most of them were on vacation, and the officers on duty could not convey the news to every officer and soldier, and the vast majority of the officers on duty did not make any effort, and they planned to wait for Monday to deliver the news, and now they went to call the officers and soldiers back to the barracks, which would make the boys who were pursuing girls on the beach make trouble.

"The President informed the world today that China views the entry of the U.S. Atlantic Fleet into the Pacific as a military provocation and will retain the right to strike at all U.S. military forces in the Pacific. It is hoped that the Americans will be able to recognize the reality and make the right decision as soon as possible. ”

The secretary sent Pan Xun's statement to Yang Chao.

After communicating with the diplomatic envoys of various countries and expressing his attitude, Pan Xun soon held a press conference to express the strong attitude of the Chinese Government and the US Navy's forcible entry into the Pacific region in disregard of China's ultimatum, and the intensity was second only to the declaration of war.

The newspapers have repeatedly reported on China's official attitude, and at the same time, the pervasive media have even received a reply from the US government, and the Americans believe that China's ultimatum is extremely unreasonable, and even if they look through the diplomatic history of the world, they cannot find a single case of interfering in the military movements of other countries.

"Hehe, defensive attack! Interesting. ”

Yang Chao saw that Pan Xun came up with the excuse that the US Navy entered the Taiping region as a serious threat to China's national security, so China has the right to strike at the other side, and this is not the strategy of defensive attacks often adopted by US imperialism in later generations, and they also took it for granted at that time, thinking that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, so they attacked Iraq, and they thought that Afghanistan was colluding with terrorist forces, so they attacked Afghanistan, regardless of whether the United Nations gave him authorization or not.

Unexpectedly, Pan Xun actually had a heart-to-heart with the American imperialists of later generations, and it was really surprising that he applied this domineering approach to the United States in advance.

"Okay, isn't it time to see Wang Zhu today?"

Yang Chao put aside Pan Xun's news, and the things that were made public were of little value, but he was very interested in meeting with the famous aircraft designer Wang Zhu.

"Mr. Wang is already waiting."

Zhang Nian returned to the road.

It was Wang Zhu who took the initiative to ask to see Yang Chao, I don't know what happened to Wang Zhu, but Yang Chao really wanted to see him.

Because this Wang Zhu is not a simple person, but an aircraft expert with a professional background, one of the pioneers of China's aviation industry.

Wang Zhu was a native of Nangong County, Zhili, entered the Yantai Naval School in 1905, graduated in 1909, and was sent to the United Kingdom to continue his studies, and the following year he was admitted to the Armstrong Naval University in the United Kingdom, and later entered the University of Durham in the United Kingdom to study mechanical engineering, and after graduation, he was ordered to study aeronautical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States.

In terms of academic background alone, Wang Zhu is impeccable, every diploma is gilded, and the aviation technology he studied in Massachusetts at that time was the first discipline in the world to specialize in aviation at that time, so it is also considered one of the pioneers in the aviation industry in the United States.

After graduating from Massachusetts, he was poached into Boeing, which was the famous aviation overlord Boeing in later generations, and Wang Zhu at this time was hired by the founder of Boeing, telling all Boeing employees that they must respect Wang Zhu as if they were themselves.

Boeing was also a start-up at this time, and continuing to be a professional like Wang Zhu, coupled with the sincere attitude of the founder, Wang Zhu stayed in the United States to work, became the first chief engineer of Boeing, helped Boeing design the first aircraft off the assembly line, and successfully launched it to the market, so that Boeing took root in the aviation field.

And Boeing made a fortune in World War I, but after the war, Wang Zhu chose to return to China, not because Boeing's treatment was not generous enough, not because Boeing's managers did not respect him enough, but because he was a Chinese.

After returning to China, he was first assigned to the Fujian Mawei Naval Aircraft Engineering Office as a deputy director and a professional instructor of the flying and diving school.

Wang Zhu worked in the United States and led the American technical team, so he was very familiar with Lockheed's management model, and soon stabilized the Lockheed Aircraft Company, which was in chaos due to the departure of a large number of American technicians, and built a design team dominated by Chinese and Zeppelin technicians, and successively designed a number of aircraft for the Navy and Army.

In the past few years, on the basis of the technology of the Lockheed monoplane, it has developed to the fourth generation of monoplanes, and now the main models on the aircraft carrier are designed and manufactured by Wang Zhu and others.

For this kind of patriot Yang Chao is still very respectful, in the original history Wang Zhu chose to return to China, in this history he still chose to return to China, in the original history, returning to China means that there is nowhere to show his skills, and now in this history, the future is also unknown, because before he returned to China, China gave people the performance that did not pay attention to the application of aircraft, Boeing directors dissuaded Wang Zhu, hoping that he would continue to stay in the United States, and give a series of benefits such as salary increases, but Wang Zhu still returned to China with his classmates Ba Yuzao and others, Now all are the backbone of Lockheed.

Or Lockheed, although Yang Chao bought the equity from Lockheed, and invited Wang Zhu to come, suggested that Wang Zhu change his name, but Wang Zhu refused, he thought that Lockheed, the founder, should be given due respect, Yang Chao suggested that it should be changed to Luowang Company, plus Wang Zhu's surname, Wang Zhu said that he himself was not better than Ba Yuzao and other classmates, and it was difficult for him to accept his name alone.

So the name was kept for the time being.

But although the name is still Lockheed, it is completely controlled by Yang Chao, Yang Chao is accustomed to asset-light operation, and there are not many industries under its holdings, at present, only the Shandong Ordnance Industry Company after the merger of Laiwu Arsenal and Qingdao Arsenal, in addition to the shares in the Middle East oil and the minerals in Brazil.

It can be seen from the equity alone that Yang Chao attaches great importance to the aircraft industry, which makes Wang Zhu always worry after returning to China, he is really worried that China is not always the aircraft industry, but has been focusing on the airship industry, so he will be useless as a hero, seeing Yang Chao's attention, he knows that all the rumors in the outside world are untrue.

At the same time, Wang Zhu also has a special respect for Yang Chao, not the respect for his achievements that ordinary people have, but a kind of respect for the grace of knowing things, and the feeling of dying for a confidant.

And Yang Chao always said that Wang Zhu and others and their team are Zhan Tianyou and Zhan Tianyou's team in the aircraft industry.

Compare the Zhan Tianyou team, which has built 40,000 kilometers of railways in China and tens of thousands of kilometers every year, which also makes Wang Zhu and others grateful.

But it was very rare for him to come to see Yang Chao this time, because since he took over the company, he had never troubled Yang Chao or asked for help.

When Wang Zhu saw Yang Chao, his first sentence shocked Yang Chao, because he said, "Mr. Yang, I want to resign." (To be continued.) )
