Walking through the autumn garden, you can still hear the sound of a violin—an older, bearded patient playing an unknown tune under a lime tree. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info more than a dozen patients are surrounding him, at the end of the song, the old gentleman saluted everyone, and the people around all smiled and applauded.

Li Kongrong looked at this scene with a smile, and suddenly felt a little regretful. In a few years' time, it will be in ruins, and these people will die in the war. It's not that he hates war: the strong naturally have the freedom to provoke wars, and the weak also have the dignity of the weak, and life and death are not a big deal, and it is better to die in battle than to be a slave.

It's just that the skeleton of the Third Reich, dressed up in a shiny fur coat, dressed himself up as an unbeatable tycoon. I really don't know what Hitler thought, he really thought that with the skeleton of Germany, he could dominate the world? It is important to note that when he started the war, he did not know that a blitzkrieg could defeat France in a month and then quickly occupy all of Europe. Just put the whole nation on the gambling table, is he really building a thousand-year empire for Germany?

Zhang Pingqun pushed the wheelchair forward, but Kong Xiangxi remained silent. Li Kongrong understood what he meant, that is, the war had begun, so there should be no more reluctance to compromise, although China was weak, but if it could stand in the right position in the upcoming world war, then victory would be certain, so he said that he would provide more non-ferrous metals to Germany, so that the Soviet Union would be trapped in the European battlefield and unable to look east.

The idea is good, but is the world really going to develop like this? What if it's wrong?! Li Hansheng's previous judgment of the situation was indeed extremely accurate, but can it be said that he also judged the future situation accurately?

With such contradictions, Kong Xiangxi was silent. No matter from the perspective of the state, the Ministry of Finance, or the private property of the Confucian family, the prolongation of the war is unfavorable. War is essentially burning money, although speculation can make a lot of money, but in the end, the mountains and rivers are exhausted, won't Brother Shen let himself pledge? This is a matter worth considering, even if the matter is shirked by Ai Ling, it will eventually ruin the relationship between the brothers-in-law.

Kong Xiangxi, who thought more and more about things in his heart, walked on the sidewalk with only his hands behind his back, stepping on yellow leaves. When the sidewalk came to an end, he lifted his glasses and said, "The hospitals in Germany are really ......."

Kong Xiangxi felt that the German hospital was fully functional, the garden was so big, and the scenery was even better, so he completely forgot that he was talking about the domestic war before. Slightly embarrassed, he was about to say something, Kong Lingyi suddenly jumped over, her hand stretched out heavily to the crook of Kong Xiangxi's arm, and said, "Father, Germany, okay?" We should also stay in Berlin for a while before going back. ”

"Nonsense!" Kong Xiangxi pretended to be angry and reprimanded, "There is a lot of war in China, how can I be in the mood to live in Berlin?" He said and blamed: "How old are the people, if it had been put in the past, it would have been married and the family would have been married a long time ago......"

Kong Lingyi was also bored, so she ran over to have fun, and was told by Kong Xiangxi that if she had run away in a bad mood before, but now it is different, after Kong Xiangxi finished speaking, she only coquettishly said: "My daughter doesn't marry." The daughter has to serve Daddy at home, and help Daddy hide from Mommy when Daddy smokes. ”

Kong Xiangxi felt sorry for this daughter, he liked it in his heart, but he said: "You take care of yourself and serve me, don't be angry with me and your mommy, I will thank God." ”

The father and daughter were close to each other, and Li Kongrong and Zhang Pingqun only looked at them and smiled, and did not make up their words. After chatting with the father and daughter for a while, Kong Xiangxi said: "I will persuade the chairman when I go back, but the chairman has to weigh a lot more than us, and the most important thing for us is to do our duty, believe in the party-state, and believe that the central government will be able to properly resolve the Sino-Japanese war......

Li Kongrong has already died once, and if you count the crossing, it is twice dead. In the past, he would still have the hope to debate with Kong Xiangxi a few more words, asking him to persuade Chang Kaishen not to fight a decisive battle in Shanghai, but now he has no hope in the party-state and the central government. This fly-camp party-state and the central committee will only be foolish and perfunctory, and with a leader who keeps dying, 40,000,000 compatriots will not be killed by the Japanese, but will also be drowned by Chang Kaishen, who picks up the embankment.

Thinking during this period of time, he felt that the victory of the War of Resistance did not lie in Chang Kaishen's party-state and the Central Committee, but in him, a patient with a plaster cast on his leg. Before the atomic bomb was built, the only way for Japan to surrender was for the navy to land in Tokyo Bay and completely wipe out Japan. He believes he can do it and is not entirely dependent on the Americans. He will not forget the report made by Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin at the National Political Participation Conference in 1940: The military expenditure in 1939 was 1.8 billion yuan, and the money remitted back to the motherland by overseas Chinese in the same year was as high as 1.1 billion, and the public debt for national salvation was not included. Of the 1.1 billion, donations accounted for 10 percent. [note 35]

And how much money did overseas Chinese donate during the Anti-Japanese War in the Americas? Some figures say $130 million, while others estimate $200 million. However, it is certain that the purchase of national salvation bonds by overseas Chinese in Xinhui alone amounted to more than US$36 million[Note 36]. In addition to donating money in Xinhui, there were also many pilots who returned to China to participate in the war, but there were factions in the navy, and naturally there were factions in the air force, and overseas Chinese pilots, pilots from Northeast China, and even pilots from Guangdong generally sat on cold benches, and some people were even inorganic in the later stage of the Anti-Japanese War.

The two submarines that are still being built at the Lübeck shipyard are of great importance. In the early stage, it relied on the four torpedo boats of the Ninghai and Jinshanwei, and in the later stage, it relied on the two ocean-going submarines to make a name for themselves and make a record, so that overseas Chinese could enthusiastically donate. If you get a donation, you can change the captured Japanese mail ship, and then take a break at Pearl Harbor, not to mention the US aid, and the donation will be doubled. In the final analysis, the Navy still costs money, and everything can be played with money.

He even had an extreme idea in his heart -- if the entire fleet converted to Jesus Christ like Li Fugui in the novel and Feng Yuxiang in reality, it would not only be overseas Chinese donations, but naïve American Christians would take the initiative to send money through the church. In particular, the fleet beat up the Japanese before the US Navy reacted, and then made up a few myths that they liked to hear, and implanted some advertisements in the middle, and these brains were afraid that they would send money like crazy. Others don't mention, how much do the Rockefeller Church donate? Is it enough for an Essex?

As for the party and Congress complaining or even preventing the navy from obtaining donations from overseas Chinese, this is not a problem at all in Li Kongrong's view. Assuming that the cost of the aircraft carrier fleet is $200 million, the funds come from donations from overseas Chinese, and the fleet has also proved its combat effectiveness, then why not double the cost of this $200 million aircraft carrier fleet to lease it to the US Navy at a cost of $400 million? Naturally, there is borrowing and repaying -- since the US Navy has leased $400 million in China's war materials, can the Chinese Army also ask the United States about the $400 million in war materials? This one borrows and one loan, and the balance is made.

In this way, the donations of overseas Chinese are used by the party and the state, but they are nothing more than the exchange of naval ships for army guns. It's just that the only problem with this operation is the command and control of the fleet after it is leased to the US Navy. However, as long as there is a record, Li Kongrong believes that the Americans will not be able to take away their own command, and when the time comes, they will only have to bargain with Nimitz on the strategic direction. Urging the United States to concentrate on the use of aircraft carriers, solving the torpedo fuse problem in advance, and appearing unskilled ship groups in advance can enable the Sino-US coalition to land in the Ryukyus ahead of schedule, and then in Tokyo.

This is how the real plan is set, and in Li Kongrong's cognition, if you want to rely on the country. In 1944, Chang Kaishen also wanted to counterattack, but the result was the rout of Yuxianggui, and there was an uproar at home and abroad for a while. In Chang Kaishen's own words before the start of the war: "The enemy has no more than six armies in our country, but we have one hundred and twenty armies to resist the war, and we have twenty armies against the enemy, and we cannot defeat the enemy, and we have to be attacked by the enemy often." [note 37]'

One hundred and twenty armies could not deal with the six armies of the Japanese army, and more than 5 million men could not deal with the 300,000 Japanese troops. The reason for this is not that there are too few people, but that there are too many people. The more people there were, the fewer weapons each army was allotted, and the fewer weapons it was, the more difficult it was to form a focal point. Li Kongrong can't remember what the Hump airlift transported for the time being, but he remembers that it was not until the land passage was opened in 1945 that the country. The military capital is in a state of raising pigs to be slaughtered, and it is empty of food and wages. It is not useful for overseas Chinese to donate to the national government, and it is better to go straight to Tokyo from the Pacific Ocean to force Japan to surrender.

Li Kongrong's idea for more than a month is like this, which is theoretically feasible, but in practice there must be countless difficulties. But he still decided: with other countries. The army regained the lost territory, it is better to join the American army and capture Tokyo by itself!

The violin under the lime tree played again, and Kong Xiangxi, of course, didn't know that Li Kongrong, who he wanted to win over several times, had already had a 'different heart', and wanted to abandon the national government and fight at sea to force Japan to surrender. After 'teaching' Kong Lingyi, he talked with Li Kongrong about the situation in Germany, and finally asked him to assist Jiang Baili, who had already set out and was about to arrive in Germany, before he took his leave.

At this time, Li Kongrong knew that Jiang Baili was coming, and he didn't have much affection for this unlucky Republic of China Xiangrui. What did he come to Germany for, to ask Germany to help mediate the Sino-Japanese war? Li Kongrong, who returned to the ward, only thought about it for a while and then left Jiang Baili behind, and the most important thing for him at the moment was to communicate with Colonel Dönitz -- the activities of the Japanese were effective, and he heard that the German navy was no longer ready to let the Chinese naval cadets go to Kiel, and he heard Lin Zhun say that the place he was going to was Fransburg, which was the northern part of Germany, closer to Poland than the city of Lübeck.

Although there are also shipyards and merchant marine schools in the city, there is really no point in putting naval cadets here to learn about submarines. Fortunately, the contract was accompanied by detailed training rules for submariners, and if they really did follow the contract, even in Fransburg, the Germans would have to provide training boats and related submarine operation training, but would they follow the contract?

It was getting late, and the blonde nurse Xenia came in again, but this time not alone, but with a new nurse. "Good day, Mr. Lee." She greeted, then introduced, "This is Margaret, and she will take care of you in my absence." ”

With her introduction, Li Kongrong looked at the nurse named Margaret. As young as Xenia, she was shorter, and she couldn't see her figure in her conservative white nurse's uniform, only a smile on her face. Xenia looked like the girl next door, but Margaret couldn't see through it. Thinking in his heart, Li Kongrong nodded politely, and then picked up the newspaper on the table and prepared to read it.

The nurse always had to take her temperature and give her medicine when she came in, but when she took her temperature, the nurse named Margaret said, "Autumn is getting colder, you should pay attention to reducing the time you spend outside." She saw Li Kongrong turn her head, and said with a smile in her explanation: "Yes, sir, it would be nice if it was spring now, when the weather is getting warmer and warmer, and blue birds will also burrow out of the jungle ......"

Blauvogel is the robin, which is the British name (bluebird), while in Germany, the robin is called rotkehlchen, and the secret phrase in the identity information provided by the doctor in the past is: 'The weather is getting warmer, and the robin (Blauvogel) will burrow out of the jungle.'" 'It seems that this woman was sent by MI6.

Li Kongrong was not surprised, he glanced at the woman, saw that she had a smile in her eyes, and then said: "The eagles in the Alps like it more and more when the weather gets colder, and they will strangle all birds and use them as food. ”

When the code was over, Margaret turned and walked to the door and locked it, then cautiously walked to the bed, and whispered, "I am Charlotte, and Sir asked me to greet you, and he wishes you a speedy recovery." ”

Sir was the head of MI6, Admiral Hugh Sinclair, and after his death, his deputy, Stuart Munes, took over the entire MI6, but that was in 1939. Although he didn't like a single yellow man very much, the entire Sixth Division attached great importance to Li Kongrong's intelligence -- the German navy's top brass was arguing about Plan Z, which was a large battleship program, and Plan Y, which was a miniaturized ocean-going ship program. Admiral Günter Guze, Admiral Gunter Guze, deputy commander of the Admiralty, favored the former, while young officers such as Colonel Helmus Haye, who had the support of Commander-in-Chief Raeder, favored the latter.

Historically, the Z and Y debate would not end until next September - Hitler liked Plan Z, but Lee Kongrong could be sure that the German Admiralty already had two plans. 007 can learn about the German Navy's shipbuilding plan, how can it not make the entire MI6 and the Admiralty worry? It takes time to build a ship, and if a countermeasure plan can be drawn up against the German Navy's shipbuilding plan, then the Admiralty and the Cabinet can be completely reassured. As a result, Sir Sinclair's illness was so disturbed that during the month several spies were sent to the West Berlin hospital, Charlotte was only one of them.

"Please tell Sir that I will be discharged from the hospital next month." Li Kongrong nodded, and began to think about how to use intelligence to hang the British and gain benefits. "By the way, I hope that the Royal Navy should remain neutral even if it can't help the Ninghai and not tell the Japanese about her whereabouts."
