Chapter 909: Selecting Air Force Talents

"As for all the personnel expenses for studying abroad, we will bear all the expenses of our dragon tooth column." Qiao Youhua said.

"This should be no problem, I will immediately report to Chairman Mao of the Party Central Committee and the heads of our headquarters, after all, this is a great thing for our army." After listening to Qiao Youhua's words, Zuo Quan said.

"Well, if you want to build a strong new China and want the nation to rise, you must first rise militarily, otherwise everything is empty talk, and the air force is an indispensable and powerful force for military rise." Qiao Youhua said.

…………

In the situation in which the entire Chinese battlefield was unfavorable one after another, the top leaders of Japanese imperialism could not sit still.

Japan's Emperor Hirohito instructed the new Prime Minister Kiichiro Hiranuma to immediately convene a cabinet meeting to discuss the dilemma facing China's war arena.

This Kiichiro Hiranuma has a long donkey face, and he is the new prime minister recommended by the former Japanese cabinet Fumima Konoe, and he is in a group of fanatical militarists such as Fumima Konoe.

Although Fumima Konoe resigned from the post of prime minister, it was only the previous position of Speaker of the Privy Council of Kiichiro Hirunuma, and those who know the core of Japanese imperialist power should know that this Privy Council was an advisory body to the emperor in Japan at this time, and at the same time controlled the power to amend the Japanese Constitution.

It is also a department of real power, and in fact, Konoe Fumima still has enough say at the top of the Japanese base camp.

After some deliberations, the Speaker of the Privy Council, Fumima Konoe, the Minister of War (Minister of Land) Hideki Tojo, and the Deputy Chief of Staff Headquarters Ishihara Wanji unanimously decided to immediately strengthen the garrison in the Pingjin area to ensure the stability of the most important and last territory of the Japanese army in North China.

In order to strengthen the strength of the North China Front in the areas of Beiping and Tianjin, the Japanese base camp decided to transfer 30,000 garrisons and 100 fighters from the mainland, the Korean Peninsula, and Taiwan's Penghu Islands, and 20,000 cavalry and 50 tanks and armored vehicles from the Kwantung Army to Pingjin.

In addition, the Japanese base camp finally meant that the dragon's tooth column was in danger and the situation on the Chinese battlefield was severe, so the Minister of War Hideki Tojo directly asked Emperor Hirohito of Japan to increase the investment of resources in the Japanese army and improve the existing army equipment to cope with the increasingly severe war on the Chinese battlefield.

Although Admiral Mitsumasa Yonechi, Minister of the Navy, and other officials of the Ministry of the Navy lodged a solemn protest against the reluctance to distribute the resources that belonged to the Navy to the Army.

However, in the end, under the mediation of Emperor Hirohito of Japan, he reluctantly agreed. In this way, Japan's war resources began to pour into the army.

The arsenals in Nagoya, Osaka, and other places in Japan, as well as the Shenyang Arsenal in Manchuria, have continuously received all kinds of abundant strategic materials such as steel and rubber, and turned them into various weapons and equipment at the fastest speed, and armored vehicles have been produced in a steady stream.

In addition, the Japanese army issued a new round of war mobilization orders, conscripting 150,000 retired soldiers and qualified soldiers into the army, intending to form a rapid mobile force in advance as the second wave of reinforcements to aid the North China Front, and put it into the battlefield when the Pingjin area was attacked.

For a time, the vitality of the Japanese Army was recovering at an astonishing speed.

……

On the side of the Dragon's Tooth Column, the leaders of the Party Central Committee agreed to Qiao Youhua's request to send outstanding soldiers abroad to learn flying skills, and instructed the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to recruit all subordinate units except the Dragon's Tooth Column, and enough excellent soldiers and grass-roots officers to go to Germany to participate in air force training together with the young soldiers selected by the Dragon's Tooth Column.

After getting the approval of his superiors, Qiao Youhua immediately got in touch with Yadru and asked him to report to the German high level to train a group of air force talents for the Eighth Route Army, and in return, Qiao Youhua will provide Germany with the design drawings of a new tank combat vehicle for free to ensure that its army armored forces have absolute superiority in the European battlefield.

As we all know, during World War II, the German pilots were second to none.

Most of Japan's ace pilots also studied under the Germans, and even the Soviets cooperated with the Germans in many aspects, learning from them, and constantly strengthening themselves.

Therefore, no matter what kind of bloody storm the Germans set off on the European battlefield, it has nothing to do with China, to say that the Germans are fascists and Nazis, but which of the Western powers has not invaded China in history? If you count carefully, you will find that these Western powers, on the contrary, the Germans have done the least harm and aggression against China, as the saying goes, the tigers in the mountains eat people.

Therefore, as long as it conforms to its vital interests and can enhance its own strength and strengthen itself, even if the other party is a German fascist, it is not impossible to cooperate.

If the Chinese nation wants to rise, stand on top of the world again, and become a superpower, it must do its best to strengthen itself.

At present, the Japanese invaders have not been expelled, and the anti-Japanese situation seems to be very good, but in fact, it may be because of the instigation of Qiao Youhua, a little butterfly, that Japan will no longer go south to launch the Pacific War, but instead use all its war resources to fight against China, and there are endless dangers hidden.

Because it was impossible for the Japanese to abandon the Chinese battlefield, for which they had already paid a huge price in casualties and materials, the two sides were bound to fight to the death, and only a complete defeat of one side could end the situation of the battle.

And Qiao Youhua never intended to make peace with Japan, no matter when and where, Japanese imperialism is the mortal enemy of the Chinese nation, this is an extremely vicious, inhumane, want to forget the Chinese race, destroy our country, since the September 18 incident, no, it should be from the beginning of the First Sino-Japanese War.

The sons and daughters of China who died under the guns and butcher's knives of the Japanese invaders do not know how many mortals, and they have a lot of blood debts, and they can only be repaid by blood.

Occupying Tokyo and destroying Japanese imperialism was Qiao Youhua's ultimate goal of raising troops to resist Japan, and in order to achieve this goal, strengthening the army was the primary prerequisite.

Because the Germans invaded France, they jointly declared war on the British and French, and were distressed that the British tanks had brought great difficulties to their ground troops.

Therefore, Hitler and his important aides, after a little discussion, agreed to Qiao Youhua's request to train air force military talents for the Eighth Route Army, which was not a problem for the Germans at all.

The Germans, by contrast, felt that they had taken advantage of them.

After dealing with the German side, Qiao Youhua began to order each division and regiment to select and recommend outstanding military backbones and soldiers to prepare for air force training in Germany.
