Jiang Qiang is not worried about the Germans' research on the Atomic Energy Research Institute, the British will definitely not watch the Germans succeed in researching, once Germany puts the atomic energy bomb! The British island is too small to withstand the explosion of atomic bombs, and if two or three are dropped, it is estimated that the British will be finished, so the British will not succeed even if they make great sacrifices.

As for the Japanese, Jiang Qiang is even less worried, even if the Japanese work out how to make atomic bombs, they do not have nuclear materials, how can they make atomic bombs without nuclear materials? In history, the Japanese searched all the small islands in Japan and could not find nuclear materials, and later went to China to find them, but the nuclear materials they found in China were simply not enough to support their research, and the number was too small! There was no choice but to ask their big brother the Germans for help, the mustachioed Hitler was very generous, and immediately ordered people to secretly transport nuclear materials to the Japanese with submarines, but unfortunately the intelligence leaked, which was known by the Americans, who ambushed the submarine in the Strait of Malacca and sank the German submarine transporting nuclear materials. At that time, the Germans were already unable to protect themselves, so where could they take care of Japan? The Japanese program to develop an atomic bomb was thus bankrupt.

What worries Jiang Qiang is that the Americans' atomic bomb research is progressing very fast, and if nothing else, it will certainly be the same as it happened in history, and the Americans are destined to succeed in the research in 1945.

Many people think that the reason why Japan surrendered in the end was because the Americans dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, forcing the Japanese to surrender, but after entering the 21 st century, many people have refuted this view, and some scholars believe that after the United States dropped two atomic bombs on Japan, the Japanese authorities had no intention of surrendering. The reason why the Japanese surrendered was because the Soviet army entered the three eastern provinces of China and attacked the Japanese Kwantung Army, and the Soviet Union's war against Japan prompted Japan to surrender, and Japan was powerless to resist in the face of the left and right attacks of the two superpowers. It is only possible to surrender.

Either way, the role of atomic bombs in ending the war is immeasurable.

Jiang Qiang very much wanted to sabotage the Manhattan Project of the Americans, because once a country possessed an atomic bomb, it would mark that it would always be invincible, and the country that first possessed an atomic bomb would have the advantage and could unscrupulously investigate the nuclear research of other countries. Forbidding others to research nuclear weapons, isn't that what Americans often do in later generations? For example, Iran, North Korea, and so on.

However, the Manhattan Project, which wanted to sabotage the Americans, made the Americans' plan to research atomic bombs stillborn, and the Manhattan Project's research site must have been heavily guarded and quite large, and it was basically impossible for a few agents to blow it up. The only thing that can be done is to slow down the progress of American research.

Jiang Qiang finished reading the document, lit a cigarette and smoked it, took a few puffs and looked through the document again, then stood up and slowly measured his steps in the office, Yang Nianhua saw him like this, knew that he must be thinking, and did not bother. Just pick up a teacup and drink your tea.

After two minutes, Jiang Qiang stopped and said: "We don't have to care about the German nuclear research, the British and Americans will definitely not let Germany continue to study, they will definitely try every means to sabotage the German research, and we don't have to care about the Japanese research, they are still in the stage of demonstration and research, and they have not formed an effective research plan at all, and the shortage of nuclear materials makes their research doomed to be slow, and when they study it, we will already hit their homeland." However, the intelligence services could not give up on continuing to collect German and Japanese intelligence in this regard. Keep an eye on them.

As for the Americans, although we are allies now, who knows what will happen after the end of the war? Maybe the Americans will turn against us at that time, and we can't help but guard against it, there are no permanent allies between countries and countries. It is impossible to sabotage the Manhattan project of the Americans, the research base must be heavily guarded, and sending people to sabotage it will definitely be a matter of no return, if the Americans catch the handle, it will be a bad thing, although it cannot be destroyed, but we can find a way to delay it, so that their research will be blocked! ”

"Delaying, hindering their research? How is this done? Yuko Kitajima listened to Jiang Qiang's words and muttered to herself. Jiang Qiang beckoned: "Come, come here!" Kitajima Yuko got up and walked over suspiciously, Jiang Qiang flipped through the report document, turned out one of the pages, pointed to a place name on it and said, "Here, look at it!" Yuko Kitajima leaned over and looked at the document along Yuko Kitajima's finger, and the name of the place Jiang Qiang pointed to was Oak Ridge, Tennessee, which was the factory base where the Americans carried out uranium isotope separation, and the uranium raw materials used by the Americans for nuclear research were produced at this factory base.

Kitajima Yuko asked, "Brother Jiang means to send someone to blow up this factory base for the production of uranium raw materials?" Indeed, it is basically impossible to blow up the research and experimental base of the Americans, the place is too heavily guarded, and it is much easier to just blow up the factory."

Jiang Qiang shook his head and said: "It's to blow up this factory base and slow down their research progress, but please note that it is not us who send people to bomb it, but the Japanese or the Germans to bomb it, we and the United States are allies after all now, if we let the allies know that we are stabbing in the back, the Americans may not turn against us for political reasons for the time being, but they will definitely hate us to the core, and they may find opportunities to trouble us in the future."

Speaking of this, Jiang Qiang paused for a moment, and then said: "Send a secret telegram to our intelligence agencies in the United States, no, personally send someone to convey the order, let them leak the news that Oak Ridge, Tennessee, is the base of the U.S. nuclear research and production uranium raw material plant to the Japanese and German intelligence personnel in the United States, remember, you can't let the Japanese and Germans know that we leaked the news to them, and find a third-party spy to do this, such as the Soviets and the Spaniards!" ”

"Understood, I know what to do!" Kitajima Yuko nodded, thought about it and asked, "What if the Japanese and German agents are too wasteful and fail when they blow up the factory?" Shall we add another fire? ”

Jiang Qiang thought for a while and shook his head and said: "No need, this kind of thing can only be done once, do you think the Americans will be stupid enough not to strengthen security measures in the factory after being attacked once?" If you want to add a fire, it can only be when the Japanese and the Germans almost fail, our people suddenly appear and carry out the explosion to the end, and we can't do it again afterwards, this is the bottom line, our people must not act alone, let the Japanese and Germans take the lead first, if they succeed, it is the best, if they don't succeed, our people immediately go in and add a fire! The time must not be set too tightly, let them come up with a practical plan, and we must not expose our people to the eyes of the Americans, the Japanese, the Germans."

Kitajima Yuko nodded and said, "Understood, I'll go back to the headquarters and let people make a feasible plan, and let our people in the United States implement it!" Jiang Qiang waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, this is not good, the people at the headquarters of Huaxing Commercial Bank don't know anything about the situation in the United States, how can they formulate a plan that meets the realistic conditions over there?" Send someone to convey the order and let the people over there make a plan, and the person who is sent is only responsible for conveying orders and supervising, and cannot intervene and direct specific actions! ”

"Okay, I'll go back and make arrangements!" Yuko Kitajima said goodbye. Research and manufacturing are two different things, research is basically to demonstrate theoretical feasibility, but if actual manufacturing is to be carried out, a large number of experiments are required, and an unimaginably large amount of calculations is required.

Of the 150,000 people working in the Manhattan Project District, only 12 know the full plan. In fact, very few people in the crew knew that they were engaged in the work of building atomic bombs. For example, the Los Alamos Computing Centre has been performing complex calculations for a long time, but most of the staff do not understand the practical implications of these tasks. Since they don't know the purpose of their work, it is impossible for them to take a real interest in it. Later, a young man explained what kind of work they were doing. Since then, the work here has reached **, and there are many staff members who have volunteered to stay and work overtime. Thanks to the hard work of all the personnel, many technical and engineering problems of the atomic bomb were solved.

Because of the technical support provided by Jiang Qiang's recollection, Myanmar's atomic bomb research has gone smoothly, but there are also some problems, there are many key data that must be calculated and verified, those scientists engaged in research can not be because Jiang Qiang said what is anything, once a certain data is miscalculated, the consequences are unimaginable, with the rigorous attitude of those scientists, how can this kind of thing happen? So just calculating the various data is a lot of work.

Burma's atomic bomb research program is called the "Big Mushroom Project", and there are 30,000 people engaged in this research program, which is much less than the people engaged in the Manhattan Project in the United States, but because Jiang Qiang provides the direction of technical research, Myanmar's atomic bomb research will not take a detour, which is incomparable to any other country, according to the report submitted to Jiang Qiang by the general person in charge of the "Big Mushroom Project", after calculation, it is estimated that Burma can carry out a nuclear explosion test in the third quarter of 1944. This report reassured Jiang Qiang, and he ordered to do everything possible to ensure the smooth progress of the "Big Mushroom Project", and that no human population should appear within a radius of 100 kilometers of the research and experimental base, otherwise the alert defense troops could immediately open fire and shoot people who should not appear.

At the same time, air defense units are deployed in the vicinity of the research base, and planes that do not have a recognition signal will be shot down, and there is also an air base around the base, where four warplanes patrol 24 hours a day, and at the same time, 10 helicopter gunships conduct search and alert on the ground within a radius of 100 kilometers 24 hours a day.

For the Myanmar military, which is already equipped with fire control radar, the air-to-ground strike capability is already the most powerful in the world today, and it is also the fastest to respond. On September 27, the Burmese army attacked Hong Kong, and the Japanese army was completely annihilated after resisting for three days, and Hong Kong was recovered, and the British governor, officials and some celebrities who were imprisoned by the Japanese army were liberated. After the former governor was released from prison, the organization officials were ready to regain the control of Hong Kong, the Burmese army received orders from the domestic top to impose military control on Hong Kong, arrest those who took advantage of the fire and robbery, and all the rogue policemen organized by the British governor were dispersed by the Burmese army.

Governor Frank Lo Phu Kwok immediately lodged a protest with the commander of the Burmese Army stationed in Hong Kong and reported to the British mainland. Chen Zhengnian's excuse to prevent the Japanese army from occupying Macao as a bridgehead to attack Chinese mainland, and the Burmese army must be stationed is really too clever, the Japanese have already had a record of breaking into Macao once, who dares to guarantee that the Japanese will not send troops to attack again? Countries such as Britain and the United States cannot object.

Later, the Portuguese and Macao authorities tasted the bitterness of not being able to interfere in military operations, and the Burmese army blocked all the passages in and out of Macao, and all daily necessities and fresh water were secretly sold by the Burmese army to local merchants in Macao, only to the people, not to Portuguese and Macao officials, what if you have money? I won't sell it to you!

At this time, the Portuguese and Macao officials were miserable, they had no food or drink, and the gold bars, oceans, and US dollar bills in their hands became waste paper, and the Portuguese and Macao authorities could not hold on for only three days, so they immediately sent a telegram to Portugal for help. Jiang Qiang only hated that the chairman of the National People's Congress of the Republic of China was too weak, and he did not dare to ask for Hong Kong and Macao, and if he put it in the hands of the chairman, he would probably not be able to get it back for the rest of his life.

At the Cairo Conference in history, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt talked to the chairman of the NPC Standing Committee and said that the three eastern provinces, Taiwan Island, and Penghu Islands would be returned to China, and he also specifically solicited the chairman's opinion on the issues of Hong Kong and the Ryukyu Islands. The history of later generations has proven that to the territory of hand. It will be difficult to make the Americans spit out again.

Taking advantage of the fact that World War II is in full swing, Europe and the United States and other countries have too many concerns, and this is the best time to recover Hong Kong, Macao, and the Ryukyu Islands. Does the chairman want to take it back? He must have thought that after all, it was China's inherent territory, but he lacked confidence and did not dare to offend Britain and the United States. Jiang Qiang can't stick to the past, in this way, maybe the chairman will doubt his intentions, and now he can only do his best without leaving a trace.

The Portuguese authorities could not afford to see Portuguese and Macao officials starving to death in Macao, so they could only issue a statement handing over the governance of Macao during the lease period to the Burmese state. The sovereignty of Hong Kong and Macau is still in China's hands. Britain and Portugal are only on lease, and they still have to be returned when the lease period expires, so the Portuguese authorities have the saying 'during the lease period'.

At this time, the officials of Portugal and Macao were saved. I didn't eat or drink for a few days. They were all so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. After the announcement by Portugal, Portuguese and Australian officials were able to buy food and fresh water for more than a month. Portuguese officials left Macau one after another with their own private output, and Macau was officially taken over by the Burmese army.

After the Portuguese left, the chairman of the committee sent someone to say that he wanted to go back to Macao, Jiang Qiang scolded his mother on the spot, why did he go earlier? Why not when the Portuguese are there? In the hands of the Burmese state, again? Is it easy to bully your own people? It's really blind to hand it over to the chairman, can he keep it? The people sent by the chairman of the committee were scolded on the spot and fled with their faces hidden.

Sooner or later, Macao will be returned to China, but Jiang Qiang will not hand it over to the chairman, and the chairman of the NPC Standing Committee also feels that he is at a loss and never mentions this matter again. As for the Hong Kong issue, after several discussions without any results, the Burmese state unilaterally declared that all military control would be implemented during the war, sovereignty would remain China's, and the issue of governance would be discussed after the end of the war.

Since the Burmese army imposed military control, the people of Hong Kong have been blessed, because they do not have to pay taxes, and the Burmese army does not collect taxes from merchants and ordinary people at all, and the people and businessmen can freely come to the mainland and Hong Kong Island, and only collect customs duties for military expenses stationed there. They also turn a blind eye to the underground activities of the military commanders, the Central Command, and the Red Party organizations on Hong Kong Island, and as long as they do not kill people and do not harm the Burmese army.

Yang Ning of the United States nodded, wiped away his tears and said: "Wife, don't go to work today, submit your resignation letter to the college, you pack your luggage, let's go back!" Yang's wife nodded and said, "Yes, let's go back, let's go to Myanmar, where we should stay." The government of Myanmar is the first government to put the people in mind, and it has never belonged to us, but ......" "But what? ”

Yang's wife said: "But we don't have any acquaintances over there, and we don't know if any scientific research units are willing to accept us." Yang Ning took out a handkerchief to wipe away his wife's tears and comforted: "Don't be careful, some time ago, a manager of a company called Huaxing Company came to me. He said that he wanted to invite me to work in Myanmar, and was willing to provide us with the best scientific research equipment and sufficient research funds, and also provide us with treatment that is not inferior here. I found out that this company is very powerful in Myanmar, with several research institutes under its umbrella, and I decided to promise him, wife, I didn't ask for your opinion beforehand, I'm sorry! ”

Yang's wife hugged Yang Ning's arms and said, "It's okay, the old ancestor has a saying; Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, where you go, I will go! Yang Ning gently patted his wife's back, and then said: "Wife, let's have breakfast, after eating, we will start to prepare, you go to submit the resignation letter, and then come back to pack your luggage, and I will go through the necessary procedures and documents."

"Well, that's it!" At seven o'clock in the evening, Yang's wife had already prepared dinner, which may be the last dinner for the two of them in the United States, she prepared very richly, after putting the dishes on the table, she took a bottle of red wine, two glasses, and then lit candles, and then sat on the sofa and listened to the songs played by the tape recorder produced by Hua Thailand, the sound quality of the tape recorder played by tape is much cleaner than the sound of the squeaky scum of the gramophone, and the music played by the musician can be played very clearly, which is the spiritual enjoyment of the highest class of this era.

It didn't take long for Yang's wife to hear the sound of the key opening the door, she immediately got up from the sofa and walked to the door, the door opened, and it was Yang Ning who came back. Yang's wife took the briefcase in Yang Ning's hand, "Are you back?" Have the documents and formalities been completed? Yang Ning didn't speak, and his wife looked up, only to see her husband's angry face, and said worriedly: "Ning, what's wrong?" Procedures didn't go well? ”

Yang Ning walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down with a tired face, and said angrily: "It's really unreasonable, they didn't let me go through the exit procedures, we are not American citizens, we want to return to China, they actually don't allow me to leave the United States for the time being on the grounds that I am a researcher in a secret organization!" Yang's wife comforted: "Ning, don't worry, we can think of a way, I think you can go to your teacher for help!" ”

Yang Ning thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, I'll go to the teacher tomorrow to help find a way!" The next day, Yang Ning went to his teacher, hoping that the teacher could find a way to let the relevant units in the United States let him go, and the teacher expressed regret that he was leaving the United States, but still agreed to help.

But after three days in a row, there was no good news from the teacher, Yang Ning was anxious, and went to his teacher again, and the teacher tried his best to keep him and was willing to provide him with more favorable conditions. At this moment, Yang Ning understood that his teacher didn't want him to leave the United States at all, and he didn't use his influence to help him get to the formalities of leaving.

In the following week, Yang Ning looked for all his contacts in the United States, but no progress was made, and the couple sat at home all day with sad faces, not knowing what to do, both husband and wife quit their jobs, and since they had decided to leave the United States for Myanmar, they would not return to work in their original units.

On this day, Yang Ning came back from outside, and after entering the house, he was furious: "It's really unreasonable, and it is really shameless to advertise that you are a free and democratic country!" Yang's wife was shocked: "Ning, what's the matter?" Yang Ning took his wife to the window and pointed to a few people walking back and forth outside: "Wife, look, these people have been around our house all day during this time, and I suspect that the US secret services have sent us to spy on us, ha, for a little person like me, the US government actually used intelligence agencies to monitor our every move, I am really honored!" ”

Yang's wife heard the bitter taste from her husband's self-deprecating tone, what can she do now? You can only take one step at a time. Wife Yang suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Ning, you didn't say last time that the manager of that company came to you, can we ask them for help?" Yang Ning was stunned for a moment, then clapped his palms and said happily: "Oh, why did I forget him?" If you think that he can come into contact with me as a representative, there must be a certain amount of energy, yes, let's go to him! However, we can't go so blatantly, those American spies outside will definitely follow me, and we must find a way to get rid of those annoying spies! ”

For a scientist with a high IQ, once they focus all their energy and attention on any one aspect, they can do a good job, such as how to find a way to get rid of those American spies who are stalking. For two days in a row, Yang Ning went out, and he found that there were always people following him for the past two days, he assessed the tracking ability of those spies, and thought of a way for the golden cicada to get rid of the spies' tracking.

He went to visit a friend of his, who was also Chinese and not much different in size, and he stayed at his friend's house for a few hours, and when it was dark, his friend changed into his clothes and came out and drove his car home.

After the spies left, Yang Ning came out of his friend's house, drove his friend's car to the city and used a public phone to Liu Zhonghai, the manager of Huaao Company, who had contacted him before.

After the phone was connected, he immediately said: "Mr. Liu, I am Yang Ning, we met a month ago, do you remember me?" A surprised voice came from the other side of the phone: "Oh, it's Mr. Yang, I'm Liu Zhonghai, of course I remember you, have you agreed?" You can rest assured that as long as you agree, we can give you and your wife the best treatment, the best research equipment, sufficient research funds, we will never interfere with the selection of your research project, and if you are not satisfied with our conditions, you can leave at any time".

Yang Ning calmed down and said, "Yes, Mr. Liu, my wife and I both agreed to your invitation, but we are in trouble now!" "Oh, Mr. Yang, if you need our help, I will definitely do my best to help you, if I can't do it, it's still our company, if our company can't do it, and the whole Myanmar country has our backing, in short, we will do our best!"

When Yang Ning heard this, he knew that the other party was full of sincerity, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Liu, I believe in your sincerity, it's inconvenient to talk on the phone, can we meet and talk?" "Of course, I am very eager to meet you again, where are you, I will pick you up now!" Hung up the phone, Yang Ning walked out of the phone booth and wrapped his coat tightly, walking around the street, as a scientist, he rarely had bad habits, including smoking, and now he suddenly wanted to smoke, the people who were being monitored at his door made him feel that his life was under strong threat, he was not very scared as a man, but he was worried about his wife.
