Chapter 1309 Between Gains and Losses
"An Yi has an accident, An Yi has an accident......"
Chiang Kai-shek's face was pale, his hands and feet were cold, and he sat down in his seat and muttered. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Qian Dajun was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward and reminded: "Seat, the First Brigade of the Southwest Air Force has all been dispatched, and the New Second Army stationed in Bengbu has also sent troops to search and rescue, and now we should immediately clarify our central government's position on this incident, and whether it is necessary to mobilize the army and cooperate with the An Jia Army to carry out search and rescue operations?" ”
"Pie! Must be sent! Dispatch now! ”
Chiang Kai-shek woke up from a dream, stood up and said loudly: "Immediately send a telegram to Zu Tao, Xiang Fang (Han Fuyu) and Haiquan (Liu Shangqing), and ask the governments of the three provinces of Suzhou, Shandong, and Anhui to fully cooperate with the search and rescue work, and to find the whereabouts of An Yi's special plane at all costs." In addition, the garrisons of the three provinces of Jiangsu, Shandong, and Anhui must also join the search and rescue work. In a word: life to see people, death to see corpses! ”
Qian Dajun took the order and left, and Kawagoe Shigeru, who was sitting opposite Chiang Kai-shek's desk, looked at it coldly, seeing that Chiang Kai-shek looked sad and didn't speak for a long time, he couldn't help but raise his head and said loudly: "Chairman, I don't want to witness Your Excellency's *** show here, I'm still waiting for Your Excellency to give me an explanation!" ”
"Say, what's the way?"
Chiang Kai-shek was furious, "Now that a highly decorated general of our country has been shot down by your fighter plane in our airspace, you actually ask me for an explanation?" Mr. Ambassador, I can tell you clearly now that we will not release the people, and the ships will not be returned, and not only in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, but also in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, all the most advanced ships and expatriates in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River will also be detained! You can do whatever you like, and you don't really plan to talk to us anyway...... Shihe, come in and see off the guests for me! ”
"You-"
Shigeru Kawagoe stood up angrily and looked straight at Chiang Kai-shek, but in his heart he was secretly wondering about the impact of An Yi's plane crash, and a sense of joy arose spontaneously - the most intractable enemy of the empire was finally dead! The war against China carried out by the imperial team will return to the track of victory......
Under the leadership of An Yi, a military strongman, the squadron has maintained an undefeated posture against the emperor in Shanghai, the Great Wall and now in the Pingjin War.
It means that the Anjia Army, which is now important in the squadron system, may fall apart, due to the covetousness of the national government for the industrial base in southern Sichuan, there may be civil strife in China, and it means that the stalemate on the front line in eastern Hebei is expected to change, which means that the first can get what you can't get from the negotiating table on the battlefield.
Shigeru Kawagoe was originally very passive about the efforts to resolve the Sino-Japanese dispute through diplomatic means, believing that *** had an absolute advantage over China and there was no need to be polite to the Chinese government. However, during this period of time, the Japanese army's poor performance caused him to be not tough enough when he spoke, and in the face of the mocking expressions of the ambassadors of Britain, the United States, France, Italy, Germany and other countries, he always felt that it was a great insult to his personality.
At this moment, Kawagoe Shigeru suddenly regained his confidence, and when Wang Shihe pushed open the door and came in to see off the guests, he picked up the top hat on the table, bowed slightly to Chiang Kai-shek, and turned to leave with a smile.
Chiang Kai-shek's mind was full of An Yi's smile, thinking of him jumping off the Ganjiang River to support the bridge for himself to retreat during the Battle of Nanchang during the Northern Expedition, thinking of his generous sorrow under the coercion of the Gui Department and He Yingqin after the defeat of Jiangbei, thinking of the sympathy with An Yi when he went into the field when the Northern Expedition failed, and remembering the wedding gift that An Yi gave when he and Song Meiling got married...... One by one, when I finally thought of the blue-haired lychee that An Yi gave him during the Xi'an Incident, he suddenly burst into tears, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears, and waved his hand to Wang Shihe, who was standing on the side without squinting:
"Shihe, your senior brother's special plane is on the way to Nanjing, and it is expected that the location of the accident may be in the north of Bengbu and the south of the Yellow River. You go to rest immediately, and then your wife will go to Nanjing Airport, and when the weather is a little better, you will fly to Xuzhou immediately, and your wife will supervise the search and rescue matters on my behalf...... By the way, in order to ensure flight safety, the Air Force sent fighter jets to escort the escort, and this incident sounded the alarm for our security work! ”
Wang Shihe was shocked when he heard that An Yi had an accident.
Following Chiang Kai-shek for many years, Wang Shihe clearly knew An Yi's position in Chiang Kai-shek's mind, and at the same time became more aware of An Yi's important role in the military and political system of the entire Nationalist Government.
As far as Wang Shihe knows, Chen Cheng, Jiang Dingwen, Gu Zhutong, Gu Zhenglun, Ge Jingen, Yu Feipeng, Cai Zhonghu, Yin Zusheng and other highly valued confidants and generals around Chiang Kai-shek all have close economic ties with An Yi. At the same time, Zhang Jingjiang, Yu Qiaqing and other Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols with profound influence also have a good cooperative relationship with An Yi. Even Wang Shihe himself also has a secret share dividend in An Yi's group, at this time, when he heard that An Yi had an accident, how could he not be anxious?
Looking at Chiang Kai-shek's red eyes and grief-stricken expression, Wang Shihe stepped forward: "Principal, please mourn!" I have been friends with Senior Brother An for many years, and I am convinced that he is not a blessed person...... This time, my wife goes to Xuzhou, I ask to follow and protect, and I will definitely bring Senior Brother An back to you! ”
Chiang Kai-shek nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I hope your good wishes can come true!" Help me call Bray in when you go out, this time the *** people have gone too far, we must return the color...... Go ahead! ”
"Yes!"
......
Unlike the torrential rains in the southern and Huanghuai regions, 141 out of 150 counties in Sichuan have been affected since the beginning of this spring. In its history, 35 million people were affected by the drought, of whom at least a million died of starvation. Drought often coincides with floods and locust plagues, and is the most murderous famine, which the common people call "slow knives". In this drought, ten of thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls were sold and married, and some young children were trapped by their parents in the firewood pile and weighed by their parents because no one wanted to buy and had no food, and one pound was seventy yuan. In order to vent their anger, desperate hungry people burned mountains for rain.
Fortunately, due to the appearance of An Yi, history has been deviated, and the victims have eaten the bark and grass roots of their hometowns and still do not expect God's rains to pour into southern Sichuan, where there is no need to worry about starvation due to the government's disaster relief.
The An Jiajun set up a large number of resettlement sites for disaster victims in the areas where Syria, Luzhou, and Ziliujing were at the junction with the rest of the forces, and various disaster relief work was carried out in an orderly manner.
There are several destinations for the resettlement of the disaster victims: The first category is young and middle-aged people of the same age, who are physically qualified, and who have a strong sense of service to the country, all of whom are recruited into the reserve forces to carry out unified military skills training and cultural education, and are ready to replenish the front-line troops at any time. This kind of family members often receive a high living allowance, the allowance for one person to be a soldier, and the family does not have to worry about life, so the registration is the most enthusiastic and the selection is the most strict.
The second type is the young and middle-aged who are physically strong and unwilling to take risks on the battlefield, or who have been eliminated from the selection of enlistment, and after simple skill training, they enter the mines, smelting and steel mills to work.
The third group is young and middle-aged women, who are arranged to work in textile factories, canning factories, daily chemical factories, ceramic factories and other factories after unified training.
In addition, the children are all enrolled in the school where their parents work, and the elderly are arranged to work in welfare cooperatives (places where laundry and cooking), cigarette factories, cigarette box factories and other enterprises that do not require much labor, so that the victims have a minimum right to life.
Of course, there is a premise for all this, that is, it must pass the identity verification of the Fourth Department's agency in southern Sichuan, and any suspicious person with malicious intentions and has not been confirmed by his fellow villagers will be deported.
Although the spring harvest in Syria and other places did not reduce much with the help of the large-scale farmland water conservancy project built by An Jiajun, and the seedlings were successfully planted, as the drought worsened, the ditches connecting the rivers were far less able to transport water than the speed of evaporation, and the lakes near and far gradually dried up, and the rice seedlings, which had grown to a height of more than a foot, were in need of water.
At present, the garrisons in various parts of southern Sichuan are working hard to divert water from the Minjiang, Jinsha, Tuojiang, Puxi, and Yangtze rivers, and build a large number of pumping stations and pumps to ensure water supply for agriculture. At the same time, the Syrian Government Pacification Office also dispatched engineering units to vigorously dig deep wells to solve the problem of water shortage for the people in the mountainous areas, and the entire southern Sichuan entered a state of drought relief and disaster relief.
Syria, a military airport runway located on the north bank of the Min River.
Dong Zechuan, deputy director of the Syrian Aircraft Relief Office and mayor of Syria, Jiang Yunshan, secretary general of the Office, Gong Qian, president of the Research Institute, Ou Chuer, An Yi's wife, and Feng Jieyun, accompanied by Luo Zhichun, director of the Syrian Aircraft Factory, and dozens of Chinese and foreign experts, enjoyed the performance of the Mosquito W4048 aircraft purchased from secret channels.
This W4048 aircraft used for test flights is the British German . Havilland's latest product, like all Syrian warplanes, has a silver-gray painted fuselage. When they first came into contact with this all-wooden fighter, Luo Zhichun and almost all the experts were a little dismissive, but they were soon amazed by the unique design and performance of this aircraft:
The W4048 aircraft is better than the A25 fighter in terms of dead weight, engine power and range, and the speed is 65 km / h faster than the current fastest A26 fighter, and in the first few test flights, it has reached an amazing speed of 555 km / h, and the ceiling has reached an astonishing 10,000 meters; Especially in terms of load capacity, the wooden W4048 greatly exceeded everyone's expectations, carrying 1500 kg of heavy loads without hindrance, and still being able to take off safely when bearing 3500 kg of heavy loads, which convinced everyone at once.
After more than 50 tests and confirming that there were absolutely no problems with the safety and reliability of this new fighter, the Syrian Aircraft Factory officially invited senior military and political officials of the Syrian Government and Ou Chuer and Feng Jieyun, who were in charge of the money bags of the South Sichuan Group, to attend the performance, and strived to launch the Mosquito fighter project at the Syrian Aircraft Factory as soon as possible.
On the wide and flat test ground, Dong Zechuan and Jiang Yunshan were well-dressed, with their hands covered in front of their eyes, while Gong Qian, Ou Chuer, and Feng Jieyun wore sunglasses, and everyone looked up at the sky together. The scorching sun of August was very dazzling, and the people were sweating from the sun, and the blue sky was terrifyingly clear.
Near the edge of the sun's halo, a small black dot faintly appeared, moving slowly in the blue sky, like a tiny ant. Gradually, the silhouette of the plane grew larger, and everyone on the ground faintly heard a strange dream-disturbing chirp similar to that of a mosquito flapping its wings.
Dong Zechuan and Jiang Yunshan couldn't help but put down the hands that were blocking their eyes, Gong Qian, Ou Chuer, and Feng Jieyun also took off their sunglasses, and everyone couldn't help but let go of the protection of their eyes, looking at the sky with their heads high, letting the sweat continue to come out, flowing down their necks and bodies, and the blood in their bodies seemed to be ignited at this moment.
Soon, the figure of the fighter plane in the sky became clearer and clearer, and the piercing screams became louder and louder, and the two 20-millimeter cannons on the left and right on the wings began to spit tongues of fire, hitting the human-shaped targets set up in the area more than 400 meters away from the distance and falling to the ground one after another.
Dong Zechuan and Jiang Yunshan looked colorless, and covered their ears for a while, Gong Qian, Ou Chuer, and Feng Jieyun reacted slightly better, after all, they had read the relevant information in detail before the visit, and they knew more about this kind of aircraft than others, so they were still able to be calm, but their trembling legs still betrayed their nervousness at the moment.
"Boom, boom—"
More than 400 tank targets were accurately hit, and burst into skyrocketing fire.
By the time everyone had recovered their breath, the W4048 fighter had already soared into the sky, circled in the sky and then descended, and finally stopped smoothly in front of everyone.
"No wonder it's called a mosquito machine, the sound of mosquitoes moving at night is suddenly amplified a hundred times, it sounds heartbreaking, it's really uncomfortable..... This fighter seems to be somewhat similar to our AB26 dive bomber, but the production price is more than half cheaper, and it is really hard to imagine that a wooden aircraft can be so good. Gong Qian praised sincerely.
At this time, the cockpit of the plane opened, and Major General Yu Zhixiang, deputy commander of the Southwest Air Force, and his assistant jumped down one after another, and Yu Zhixiang strode to the front of the crowd and gave a detailed introduction:
“...... This kind of aircraft is really good, but because it is all wooden, the protection of the pilot can be described as minimal, and it is difficult to survive once it is hit by an enemy aircraft. I think that with this kind of super-fast fighter with our radar navigation system, it will be much better to carry out missions at night, or simply use it as a bomber, operating under the escort of fighter jets, which is also a good choice. ”
If An Yi was here, he would definitely angrily accuse Yu Zhixiang for not taking care of his body, and the dignified deputy commander of the Air Force actually went to test fly the plane in person, but at this moment, no one blamed Yu Zhixiang, but a large group of people surrounded him with admiration, constantly discussing the advantages and disadvantages of the fighter, as well as the feelings when flying.
Luo Zhichun gave Ou Chuer a thumbs up and said with satisfaction:
"Madam, the introduction of this all-wooden fighter can greatly alleviate the current shortage of fighters faced by our air force and flight schools, especially its excellent engine technology, which can bring us a lot of help in research. Madame has a sharp eye, this introduction is worth a thousand dollars! ”
As soon as Ou Chuer wanted to explain that the investment was completed under An Yi's guidance, he saw Colonel Xu Moran, director of the Air Force Intelligence Division, accompanied by Ding Zhicheng, the police chief of the Syrian Pacification Office, in a hurry.
Ding Zhicheng's eyes were red, and as soon as he saw Gong Qian, Ou Chuer and Feng Jieyun, he walked forward quickly, and said in a choked voice:
"The commander's plane was pursued by the Japanese army and lost contact in the Huanghuai area, Sister Gong and the two ladies, we need to return to the headquarters immediately......"
Before Ding Zhicheng's words fell, Ou Chuer and Feng Jieyun were in a hurry, and suddenly fainted, and Gong Qianfeng's eyes welled up with tears, and she shouted heartbreakingly: "Xiao Yi-"
