Now that the reason has been found, Chen Feng is not in a hurry, according to the little fox, as long as there are points, the son is not worried. It's a big deal to exchange 10,000 points for emergency first, and then you should spend money to buy your son! He was now curious about what the little fox was talking about!

On July 20, Hua Rong called and said that the personnel who had gone to Chongqing had returned, and Mr. Li Zhonghua, whom Chen Feng had named, and his students had also arrived safely in Datong.

After receiving Hua Rong's call, Chen Feng was overjoyed, and at the same time, he was greatly relieved. Two months ago, he submitted an application to the Nationalist Government for Mr. Li Zhonghua, an honorary professor of the Department of Geology of the Faculty of Science of the Central University, to come to Guisui to assist in the search for coal fields and oil in the Eighth War Zone.

In order to transfer this Chinese geological expert to Guisui, Chen Feng did not hesitate to present the Nationalist Government with weapons and equipment for a reinforced division, which finally relieved the high-level leaders of the Nationalist Government.

Although people now know the name of Li Zhonghua and the fact that he is a well-known geological expert, no one knows the founder of Chinese geology better than Chen Feng. Speaking of Li Zhonghua, there are not many modern people who know the Tao of Lu, but if you talk about Li Siguang, I am afraid that no one knows the Tao.

Li Zhonghua is Li Siguang, a famous geologist, a native of Huanggang, Hubei, and a Mongolian. In the 30th year of Guangxu, he went to Japan to study at the Osaka High Engineer Marine Mechanism, during which he joined the League, and in 1910, Li Siguang returned to China from Japan. After the Wuchang Uprising, he was appointed as a senator of the Ministry of Finance of the Hubei Military Government, and was later elected Minister of Industry. After Yuan Shikai came to power, the revolutionaries were ostracized, and Li Siguang left the motherland again. Studied at the University of Birmingham in the UK. In 1918, Li Siguang, who received a master's degree, decided to return to China to serve.

Subsequently, Li Siguang served as a professor and head of the Department of Geology of Peking University, and in 1928, he went to Nanjing to serve as the director of the Institute of Geology of the Academia Sinica, and was later elected president of the Geological Society of China. In July 1928, the Nationalist Government decided to establish the National Wuhan University, and Cai Yuanpei, Dean of the Graduate School of the Nationalist Government (Ministry of Education), appointed Li Siguang as the chairman of the Preparatory Committee for the Construction of Wuhan University, and selected the new site of Wuhan University. In 1932, he was appointed acting president of Central University (now Nanjing University), and in 1937, he was appointed honorary professor of geology at the Faculty of Science.

Chen Feng now urgently needs such a geological expert to assist him in going to Siberia, and it is inevitable that the army will develop mechanization. However, the biggest factor restricting the mechanization of the troops of the Eighth Theater is the oil supply, which has been difficult to build for more than a year. The railway line from Guisui to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, has been opened to traffic. The railway line connecting Ulaanbaatar to the Trans-Siberian Railway of the Soviet Union is also about to be completed, although a large amount of oil and other materials are now arriving in Guisui through this railway line every day, but at this time the Soviet oil production industry is not very developed, and it cannot afford the huge consumption of Chen Feng's department. Therefore, it is imperative to find new oil fields.

What's more. As a traverser. Chen Feng is very clear about the development trend of World War II. Don't look at the fact that the Soviet Union and Germany have signed a non-aggression pact, but the mustache in Germany has always regarded the Soviet Union as its biggest enemy, and the "Barbarossa" plan has started the pace of aggression against the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was dragged into the abyss of World War II.

At the beginning of the war, the performance of the Soviet Red Army was really unsatisfactory, the western industrial area fell in a very short period of time, and the Soviet Union could not even take care of itself, and then it could not even take care of Chen Feng, so it was necessary to look for oil close to the Eighth Theater as soon as possible, and quickly exploit it, so as to ensure the supply of oil in the Eighth Theater after the Great War.

However, there are really not many talents who can really take on the task of finding oil, and the last thing is that Kang Ze reminded Chen Feng of the awakening, which made Chen Feng think of Li Siguang, a famous geological expert through the ages.

On the afternoon of the 20th, escorted by more than 30 fighters, two transport planes took off from Datong and rushed to Guisui. Before the plane took off, Colonel Li Weihua of the Army Aviation Regiment, which was subordinate to the 49th Group Army, sent a telegram to the Northern Air Force Command, informing them in detail of the time of take-off and the expected time of landing.

Knowing that Li Siguang and others were expected to land at the Guisui Military Airport at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Feng immediately pushed off all the work after 5 o'clock, and at the same time ordered the chef of Chen's Mansion to prepare a few tables of good dishes, and he would have a banquet for Li Siguang and others in the evening.

In the cabin of the Li 2 transport plane, Li Siguang, who was already 50 years old, had some doubts about this trip to the north, and he didn't know what the newly rising warlord summoned him to Saibei to do, and what value he had and which big warlord paid such a big price.

"Teacher, which General Chen wants to transfer us to Saibei?" Li Siguang's protégé, Yang Jiangang, asked curiously.

"Dean Cai didn't elaborate, just let us pack up our things and wait for the plane in the Eighth War Zone, I think it may be that Admiral Chen wants to open a geology school or some research on geology, and he needs our people to help him." Li Siguang said.

"Teacher, I heard that Saibei is fighting every day, will we die here?" A schoolgirl asked nervously.

"Hehe, Wang Xiaoxian, you should rest assured about this. My uncle was a regiment commander in the First War Zone, and I called him before I came, and he said that General Chen was very good at leading the troops, and since they drove the Japanese out of Saibei, the little devils were not able to break through the army on the front line of Zhangjiakou, let alone go deep into the front line of Guisui. Moreover, there is also the most powerful air force in the country, and if our place of work is in Guisui, then we are safer than in Chongqing. Yang Jiangang replied with a smile.

"Jiangang is right, the officers and men of the Eighth Theater are known for their bravery and good fighting, and General Chen is the most famous anti-Japanese hero of the government, and since he has made so much effort to get us to Saibei, he will definitely ensure our safety." Li Siguang said to these fellow students.

At this moment, the voice of the crew came from the front: "Professor Li, students, you are about to arrive in Guisui, I just received the news from the ground command center that Commander-in-Chief Chen will personally greet you at the airport!" ”

The transport plane landed slowly, and as the hatch opened, Li Siguang and the others slowly stepped off the plane. As soon as they got used to the sunlight outside, Li Siguang and the others saw a large group of people walking towards them not far away, and in the center was a young general with three stars on his shoulders.

Although Li Siguang did not know Chen Feng, this military uniform was the best business card, except for the chairman of Chahar Province, the commander of the Eighth Theater of Operations, how could there be such a young general, even Hu Zongnan, Du Yuanming and others, whom Chairman Jiang trusted the most, were only the rank of lieutenant general, which was far worse than this General Chen.

"Mr. Zhong Gong (Li Siguang's character) has worked hard all the way, and all the students have also worked hard!" Chen Feng grabbed Li Siguang's hand and said enthusiastically.

"General Chen is polite, it is our honor to meet the youngest general in China, hehehe!" Li Siguang hurriedly said.

"Mr. Zhong Gong said with a smile, the contemptible people have already prepared a banquet in the house, and the right to wash the dust for Mr. and the classmates, please!" Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Thank you, General Chen!"

The meals at the banquet are not very rich, although the Chen family is not short of money, but this is the rule set by the old man, no matter who the banquet is, no matter who the banquet is, no more than six meat dishes, no more than six vegetarian dishes, and the cost of the whole table of meals cannot exceed one ocean, this is a hard rule, no one can violate it, including Chen Feng.

And this kind of regulation is not only implemented in the Chen family, but now it has been fully implemented in the entire Suicha area, even if the government holds a banquet, it is such a standard, the only exception is that on the day of Chen Feng's wedding, the old man specially approved 5 million oceans as the cost of the wedding, so the standard of the meal that day was much higher.

Although there is no imaginary mountain and sea flavor jade liquor, this meal is still very happy, and the guests and hosts are happy, which also makes Professor Li Da's opinion of Chen Feng have changed a lot. In Li Siguang's view, the continuous warlord disputes, divisions, and melee wars have spread across most of China, bringing unprecedented disasters to the country and the nation, and greatly damaging the social productive forces. This has seriously hampered China's economic development, social progress, and the process of national self-reliance.

But through today's contact, he found that this newly rising warlord does not seem to be the kind of person who disregards the interests of the country and the nation, Chen Feng's elegant speech and profound knowledge surprised Li Siguang very much, and that kind of farsightedness and wisdom are not comparable to ordinary people.

The next morning, Chen Feng met with Li Siguang alone in his office and showed him his contract with the Soviet government.

After reading the contract, Li Siguang frowned and asked, "General Chen, you mean to let me take my students to Soviet Russia to explore for oil?" ”

"It is precisely like this, I will not talk about the importance of it, the blood of industry, without it, the industrialization of our country cannot be completed. What's more, without enough oil, our army will not be able to equip a large number of tanks, armored vehicles and automobiles, without which our army will always be able to fight the enemy's aircraft and artillery with flesh and blood, and will never be able to achieve mechanization, so we must find a solid source of fuel! Chen Feng said.

"I know this, but why do we have to go to the Soviet Union to explore oil, why can't we do it at home, although our country is an oil-poor country, but I firmly promise that China does not have a little oil reserves, I think it is better to look for oil fields in our country than to spend a lot of effort to explore oil fields." Li Siguang said. (To be continued......)
