Chapter 592: Moscow (Asking for a subscription, asking for a monthly pass, asking for various !! )
Chen Feng left, taking a group of diplomats led by Wang Chonghui with him. However, before leaving, Lao Chiang arranged for Chen Feng to attend a high-level military meeting in Chongqing, at which Lao Chiang personally announced the appointment of Chen Feng as vice chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, and then held a press conference.
Lao Chiang's order shocked everyone, the Military Council of the Nationalist Government is the supreme commanding organ of the Nationalist Government's army. It was founded in Guangzhou in 1925 under the chairmanship of Wang Ching-wei and succeeded by Chiang Kai-shek in April 1926. The power of the Military Commission is extremely great, so there has been only one chairman for more than ten years, and even He Yingqin, Chen Cheng, and others, whom Lao Chiang trusted and relied on the most, only served in the Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Military Affairs under the Executive Yuan, and the post of vice chairman has been undecided, but he did not expect that Lao Chiang would suddenly appoint Chen Feng as vice chairman.
In fact, the appointment of Chen Feng as vice chairman was the result of discussions between Lao Jiang and He Yingqin and others, and the result had been decided a few months ago, but it has not been reported to the public. Lao Jiang has always had some concerns about this vice chairman, because there are too many things involved in this position.
Once Chen Feng becomes the vice chairman of the NPC National Committee, it means that Chen Feng has become the No. 2 person in the National Government from an army general and commander of the theater, higher than Li Zongren, Yan Xishan, Bai Chongxi and others, which can easily cause dissatisfaction among these bigwigs.
However, Chen Feng's exploits are obvious to all, not to mention the elimination of so many Japanese puppet armies, and the recapture of nearly 1.7 million square kilometers of Outer Mongolia and Tangnu Ulianghai from the Soviet Union alone. Such merit is enough to deserve the title of vice chairman. In ancient times, there were people who opened up thousands of miles of territory to be crowned kings, but Chen Feng opened a territory of millions of miles, and he couldn't convince the public if he didn't appreciate it.
Moreover, if Chen Feng visited Moscow this time, if the two sides did not reach an agreement, it would be fine. Once the two sides reached an agreement, it would be nearly 2 million square kilometers of land, and Lao Chiang had already expected that when the news came back to China, the people's reaction would further enhance Chen Feng's prestige, and even he would not be able to match it as the chairman of the committee.
After several years of working together, Lao Jiang also has a certain understanding of Chen Feng, although this young man has the ability, courage and ambition. But this man is very principled and patriotic. He often does things that are beneficial to the country and the people and not of much benefit to him.
Sometimes Lao Jiang admires this young man a little, and in the past few years of working together, Lao Jiang also understands Chen Feng's actions, and does not do things that he is not sure of, even if it is a risk. Chen Feng will also take risks with full certainty. This time, though, it involves the ownership of millions of square kilometers of land. Judge by normal logic. The Soviets would not give in so easily, but Lao Jiang had a very strong premonition that Chen Feng could do this.
He gave Chen Feng the title of vice chairman. He also transferred Wang Chonghui, foreign minister of the Nationalist Government, to the visiting delegation, clearly to get a piece of the pie, which was not a conspiracy, but a conspiracy. He knows it, and so does Chen Feng. If the matter is done, half of the credit will be given to him.
The last time the credit for recovering Outer Mongolia and Tangnu Wulianghai was monopolized by Chen Feng, this time Lao Jiang must not miss it, if this thing is really successful, it is conceivable that his prestige Jiang will reach a peak.
What Lao Jiang was thinking, Chen Feng knew very well. As mentioned earlier, this is not a conspiracy, but a conspiracy, involving the ownership of millions of square kilometers of huge land, and Chen Feng's identity cannot take it all at all, so the Nationalist Government must come forward, Lao Jiang is now the recognized leader of China, and it is impossible not to give him a part of the credit.
On July 5, 1941, Chen Feng and his entourage took a special plane from Guisui and flew towards Moscow.
In the early morning of July 6, after a day and night of flight, the plane finally landed at the airport near Moscow. Along the way, Chen Feng's plane and escort plane group successively transferred to seven airports in the Soviet Union, with a distance of nearly 8,000 kilometers.
As soon as the plane crossed the Caucasus, 80 fighters of the 8th Division of the Soviet Air Force took the initiative to take to the air to escort Chen Feng's car to avoid being intercepted by the Luftwaffe.
The Soviet Union attached great importance to Chen Feng's visit, which can be seen from the class representatives, although Stalin did not personally come to pick up the plane, but there were Zhukov, Khrushchev and Timoshenko, as well as some Chinese in the Soviet Union.
However, soon after arriving in Moscow, Chen Feng felt the tense atmosphere of the Soviet Union, and according to the arrangement of the Soviet side, the morning of the 6th was a rest, the noon was a reception banquet, and the evening was a separate meeting between Chen Feng and Stalin.
But just after 7 o'clock, Chen Feng was woken up by the shrill air raid sirens in the city, and it turned out that the Luftwaffe had come to attack Moscow. A Soviet colonel hurriedly invited Chen Feng and others to an underground air-raid shelter to prevent accidents.
However, Chen Feng refused his request, but asked him to bring Wang Chonghui and others down first, and he himself took a few special forces to the top floor of the Soviet State Guesthouse, and took out his high-powered telescope to watch the air battle.
The gray-blue German planes in the sky were overwhelming, and Chen Feng had seen several large air battles between China and Japan, and sometimes there were even 2 or 3 hundred fighters engaged in air battles at the same time. However, compared with the air war between the Soviet Union and Germany, the air war between China and Japan is like a child's play, and it is weak.
Chen Feng counted carefully, and there were nearly 400 fighters fighting within the range that he could observe alone, and in the distance, there were also a large number of fighters exchanging fire.
Despite the fact that the USSR was fighting at home, it seemed that the balance of victory did not tilt in their favor. In less than 5 minutes, at least 18 Soviet fighters were shot down, while a small number of rack bombers were shot down by German direct mail, and the losses were not large.
And Chen Feng also saw clearly that the Luftwaffe was equipped with a Me-109 fighter, which Chen Feng had studied. The ME-109 fighter is an extremely advanced piston screw aircraft, its biggest advantage is the level flight speed, and set the absolute world record of the project - 755.138 km / h, and held it until 1969!
In comparison, the latest Lager-3 fighters equipped by the Soviet Union were somewhat inferior to the German 109 fighters, and the number was very small, and a considerable number of Soviet fighters who fought fiercely with the Luftwaffe were still using the I-16 fighters.
After watching it for a while, Chen Feng ordered the captain of the guard to immediately send a report to Li Xuebin, the captain of the escort group, and ordered him to take 20 J-6 fighters of the Northern Air Force to immediately take to the air to assist the Soviet Air Force in combat.
It's not that Chen Feng is kind, but he wants to see how the combat effectiveness of the air force under his command compares with the Luftwaffe, and he must know that the combat effectiveness of the Luftwaffe is really not weak, and in the context of the blitzkrieg, in the nearly four years from 39 to 43, the Luftwaffe was almost invincible.
After receiving Chen Feng's order, Li Xuebin immediately took off from the airport in the eastern suburbs of Moscow and joined the battle group.
Kremlin. Underground Command.
For this air raid by the Luftwaffe, the Soviets have long been prepared, and during this period of time, the air raids on Moscow by the Germans have been normalized, sometimes once or twice a day, and sometimes even more than a dozen times a day, and the scale is not the same, sometimes more and sometimes less. However, there are really not many large-scale air raids like today, and there were only dozens or hundreds of them at most before, but today I don't know what kind of madness that mustache is going crazy, and more than 300 fighters were dispatched at one time.
Stalin's mood is not beautiful now, this group of hateful Germans, this is clearly adding to his heart. If the Luftwaffe bombing could not be curbed today, the great Soviet Union would be a great disgrace.
"Novikov, when will this swarm of hateful German flies be driven away? To know which Chinese general is now in Moscow, the presence of this swarm of German flies is too embarrassing for the great Soviet Union. Stalin asked with a grim face.
"Great Comrade Stalin, our two aviation forces have been launched to intercept, but now it does not seem to pose much threat to the Germans, although the battle between the two sides is fierce, but the great Soviet Air Force has not taken much advantage!"
"Scoundrels, bastards, damned Germans! Did this group of bitches raise someone who heard something, otherwise why would they be carrying out such a large-scale air raid today? Stalin said angrily.
"Great Comrade Stalin, this air raid by the Germans should be a normal auxiliary air raid, the purpose of which is to destroy the will to fight of the great Red Army and prepare for the army attack on Moscow, and it should not be directed at any Chinese general. But just in case, we should still invite him to the Kremlin, if something happened to any Chinese general in Moscow, it would be a disaster for the great Soviet Union. ”
"Novikov, you have a reasonable consideration, wait for the swarm of German flies to leave, and immediately send someone to invite that Chinese general to the Kremlin!"
"Yes!"
At this moment, a bearded officer hurriedly walked in and reported: "Great Comrade Stalin, I have just received news that the Chinese general ordered his escort squad to take to the air and fight with the great Soviet Air Force!" ”
"What? What can they do with less than 20 fighters in total, do they make trouble! Novikov said angrily.
Stalin didn't think so, he was a politician, and he thought that people like Chen Feng would not arbitrarily give some meaningless orders, and he must have a purpose in doing so.
"Novikov, since our guest is willing to help, then we can't make the family feel cold and order the airport to do a good job of logistics!" Stalin ordered.
"Yes"
