Now Nanyuan, has basically become the second "presidential palace" in Zhaobei, if the president did not leave the capital, and the presidential palace can not see his figure, then Mr. President is mostly in Nanyuan.

Nanyuan Air Base has a presidential line, is a two-story small building, usually Zhao Bei settled here when he was in Nanyuan, although he may not live here, but if he needs a lunch break, he usually takes a lunch break in this small building.

Since he was going to meet with a group of grassroots commanders who had come down from the front line at Nanyuan Air Base today, Zhao Bei rushed from the presidential palace to Nanyuan Air Base in the morning, and after meeting with those grassroots commanders, he had lunch in the Nanyuan Air Force cafeteria. Then he took a lunch break in the president's walk, and at two o'clock in the afternoon the adjutant woke him up. Then follow the schedule and continue to work.

The main work in the afternoon was to study with the head of the Aviation Administration the key direction of the future Air Force technology, and to discuss the merger of several technical colleges to form an aviation technical college. However, the person in charge of the Aviation Department has not yet rushed to Nanyuan, taking advantage of this time. Zhao Bei decided to meet with several naval officers first. These naval officers are not ordinary officers, they are all heroes who have made great contributions to Japan this time, in fact, one of the purposes of Zhao Bei's meeting with them this time is to personally award them medals.

。 Zhang Guangyang".

"Here!"

"Awarded the Order of Patriotism of the 1st degree!"

"Zheng Guohua!"

"Here!"

"Awarded the Order of the Patriotic of the First Degree".

In the small auditorium of the Air Force, every name recited by the adjutant means that the president personally wears a heavy gold medal on the chest of a naval officer's military uniform, although the ceremony is simple and not many people watch, but it is undeniable that it is the most reliable recognition of the hero's qualifications.

These officers were basically the commanders of the submarine force, most of them captains, and they performed well in the war, not only causing great panic in the Japanese economy, but also inflicting heavy casualties on the Japanese navy.

The naval officers who received the medal were very excited, of course, the look on their faces was not only excited, but also a little tired, after all, they all came from various naval bases on the same journey, and they didn't close their eyes on the road by train, not because they didn't want to sleep, but because the noise of the train was slightly like the noise of a submarine sailing on the sea, coupled with the closed car, it gave people the illusion that they were still in a submarine. And they were on combat duty, perhaps by reflex, and the commanders of these submarines were all extremely detrimental and striving. I can't sleep at all.

Although Zhao Bei did not know the reason for the nervous breakdown of these submarine captains, he could also see that they were physically and mentally exhausted, so immediately after the award ceremony, he issued a presidential decree, ordering the chamberlain to vacate the president's line and arrange for these naval officers to rest.

For Mr. President's Guan Mou, all naval officers are very appreciative. However, not everyone is in a hurry to run to sleep, at least two naval officers are still unable to sleep, one of them is the "Far Eastern Shark Concubine." Zhang Guangyang, while the other is a "sharpshooter." Zheng Guohua.

"Far Eastern sharks. It was the nickname given to Zhang Guangyang by Western reporters to mean that he fought fiercely, and this nickname has become well-known in Western naval circles, and as for the "sharpshooter", it is the nickname given to Zheng Guohua by the submarine force, which means that he can torpedo accurately. Not many people know this nickname at the moment. It just so happened that Zhao Bei counted one.

Zhang Guangyang couldn't sleep because he wanted to talk to the president about some suggestions on the building of submarine forces, and through this Sino-Japanese war, Zhang Guangyang had a deeper understanding of submarine tactics, and he realized that the reason why submarines were able to show the limelight in this war was only because the antisubmarine means were backward and could not keep up with the situation. Once the anti-submarine means are advanced, the advantages of submarines will be greatly reduced, so he wants to take precautions to outline the direction of the future submarine technology and conduct in-depth research with those submarine designers.

Zheng Guohua couldn't sleep because he was entrusted by someone to ask the president about the future whereabouts of a certain commander in the submarine force, in fact, the person who entrusted him was Rao Guoliang, and the thing he wanted to ask the president was also about Rao Guoliang. Went to the transport troops. is serving as the captain of a cargo ship, and this award is not Rao Guoliang's share, so Rao Guoliang and Zheng Guohua are a little worried, and want to come over to ask the president to see how to deal with the captain who lost the submarine in the first actual combat sortie in the future, after all, Rao Guoliang has also sunk at least one Japanese armored cruiser, there are merits, and the center should be more or less accommodating.

Zhao Bei is also more concerned about the topics that Zhang Guangyang and Zheng Guohua are concerned about, but as president, some details are indeed not suitable for frequent interference, unless it is about the direction of strategic development, otherwise, Zhao Bei does not mind leaving it to his subordinates. Otherwise. He's got a job as president.

As for the future development of submarine technology, Zhao Bei only knew some advanced technical concepts, but he did not know as much about specific technical issues as Zhang Guangyang, the submarine commander, so after receiving Zhang Guangyang's report, he just flipped through it, handed the report to the adjutant, and instructed the adjutant to take Zhang Guangyang to the Admiralty, so that the Admiralty could try to meet Zhang Guangyang's requirements and let him discuss with China's submarine design experts.

As for Rao Guoliang's question, Zhao Bei has also asked, but according to the report of the military justice department, if you want to completely clarify this matter. It is necessary to wait for the submarine to be scooped up, but since Zheng Guohua has destroyed the submarine with a torpedo, it is indeed difficult to say whether it can be investigated, and it is precisely because of this that the medal that Rao Guoliang should have received was withheld by the Admiralty, and the Admiral Tang Xiangming meant. "No reward or punishment." For this opinion of the Admiralty. Zhao Bei had no objections.

Since Zhao Bei has brightened the bottom, Zheng Guohua is also relieved, although he and Rao Guoliang are not friends, but they also admire the captain who has the courage to break into Port Arthur to ambush In fact, in his opinion. The reason why the submarine of Rao Kou Erpinhua was lost. It's not because Rao Guoliang is not in command: Rao Guoliang is unlucky, and if Rao Guoliang's future is affected because of the loss of submarines, it is indeed a pity, after all, there is still a lack of qualified commanders in the submarine force.

After Zheng Guohua left. An adjutant in the chamberlain walked up to Zhao Bei and muttered a few words in a low voice.

"The technical experts from the Aviation Agency have arrived, and they have brought some drawings, and in addition, the German technical experts have also come, and they have come to bid farewell to the president, and they will borrow them according to the orders of the German government

Zhao Bei nodded, ordered to go down, and asked the adjutant to lead the guests to the reception room.

Soon after, Zhao Bei met with the technical experts and people in charge of the Aviation Administration in the reception room. The person in charge of the Aviation Administration is still Xie Zhantai, and as for the Chinese and German technical experts he brought in, they are all people who have made outstanding contributions to China's aviation industry, and the Chinese Air Force performed well in this Sino-Japanese war. It has a lot to do with the aircraft used, and it is precisely because of the excellent performance of the aircraft made in China. The German government has decided to transfer these German industrial technologists working in China back to Germany to serve the German team.

In view of Germany's special relationship with China, the German Government, through its envoy to China, also made a reluctant request to the Chinese Government, and the German Government wanted to ask the Chinese Government to put that kind of "vulture." All the technical data and design drawings of the heavy bomber were forwarded to these German technical experts who were about to return to China, so that they could be brought back to Germany to imitate the "Vulture" heavy bomber. Or develop a new heavy bomber on the basis of this bomber for the war in Europe, in exchange for which the German government will again provide the Chinese government with a considerable international loan, and without any mortgages.

This deal is very cost-effective, Zhao Bei nodded without thinking about it, and exchanged a kind of bomber information that is about to become obsolete in exchange for a considerable loan, no matter how you look at it, it is very cost-effective, with this loan, China can further strengthen the basic industrial system, so he instructed Xie Zhantai to bring all the technical data and design drawings of the "Vulture" heavy bomber by the way, and forward it to German experts in front of the president, so as to show the president's importance to Sino-German friendship.

Xie Zhantai is not as happy as Zhao Bei's "vulture" heavy bomber is the first bomber developed by Chinese designers themselves, and there is no foreign participation in the entire development process, in his opinion, this is China's absolute secret, can not be easily leaked to foreign countries, so, for the president's decision, he is somewhat resistant, when he sees the president's face, the face has been flat, and tightly hugged the briefcase full of design drawings, as if there is not a drawing, but his lifeline.

As president. Of course, Zhao Bei can't be as stingy as Xie Zhantai" met with German technical experts, Zhao Bei began to talk about Sino-German friendship, and once again reiterated his opposition to Germany "against the old international order." Positions of support. However, when German experts asked whether China was capable of participating in the anti-British war in the Far East, Mr. President said it again.

Fortunately, the German technical expert is not a diplomat after all, and he does not have the skills of stalking, which is much easier to deal with than the German minister in China. Each of them also received the "Sino-German Friendship Medal" awarded by Mr. President in pure gold. It is well-made, and it is also set with diamonds, which alone shows the good intentions of Mr. President.

After the Germans left, Xie Chantai complained again, complaining that the president should not be so "generous." "Will" vultures. This deposit is sent out, and it is inevitably a bit of a cub selling Ye Tian.

Zhao Bei didn't blame this technocrat for his complaints, after all, this person was also patriotic, but he didn't know it. The president's vision is long-term, and he will never stick to his old roots and not want to forge ahead.

"Old Xie, don't complain about it, let's talk about the progress of your airship department. You also said that airships are such flying machines. Although it is not as fast as an airplane, it is not very survivable. But there is an advantage, that is, the payload is large, the flight altitude is high, and it can act as a heavy transport vehicle. ”

As soon as he heard about the airship, Xie Chantai came to the spirit, he used to play this, but he has never had the opportunity to show his talent, and now the president asked him to study the large hard airship, but he has a great appetite for him.

"German experts have completed all the technical data and design drawings, the model has also been made, there are German airships as a reference, I think it is not a problem to imitate a similar large hard airship within half a year, the key is how to use it in the future? I don't think this kind of airship can go to the front line, but it's good for logistical transportation, but hydrogen is too dangerous, and if there are large transport planes in the future, as the president said, I don't think the airship will be able to spread very quickly. ”

After several years of in-depth study of airplanes, he has agreed with the opinion of most technicians that airplanes are much broader than airships in terms of exhibition prospects, so his interest in airships has greatly decreased, and he is not as enthusiastic as he was back then.

"Our country is vast, some areas are inconvenient to build railways, and airplanes cannot pass due to the limitations of load capacity and performance, and now we are counting on airships.

Before, I didn't agree with you to show a large rigid airship. The main thing is that I am worried about the impact on the aircraft industry exhibition, but now that we have technical support from Germany, you can build a few prototypes for testing.

In addition, the main work of your aviation agency is still in the airplane, and the airplane is the key direction of the aviation industry exhibition, and in the future war, whoever has the best aircraft will be able to grasp the opportunity for victory, and in the future war, the air force will surely become the protagonist

Although Zhao Bei sees it too long-term, since this is the foresight of a historical traveler, then this is the truth, and in the war, whoever masters the truth will master the victory.
