the world is at stake

Gu Weijun wanted to come to Confucian Mansion to inquire about 'purchasing the US Liberty Ship' after he had inquired about some news.But now that the Confucian Mansion has undergone major changes, he is naturally unable to speak.

In addition, the person in charge fell ill one after another, only a housekeeper came out to support the field, and Hu Shi was playing the side drum beside him.

The scene was too chaotic, Gu Weijun really couldn't stay long, asked the doctor about his condition, gave him a condolence money, and left temporarily.When he turned around, he sent a telegram to Soong Meiling.

The main idea is... "Your eldest sister is really seriously ill, and it seems that she is not much longer; your brother-in-law is too sad and bedridden; your younger brother has arrived, and I feel very guilty; I have seen the scene, it is really miserable."

Soong Meiling read the telegram and cried to death in the presidential palace in Taipei, anxious to go to the United States to see her sister for the last time.Chiang Kai-shek also sighed and was busy arranging a special plane.

The eldest sister of the Song family was about to die, so she had to notify the second child who was a 'representative of the national bourgeoisie' in the imperial capital.Although the second child has no good relationship with the eldest and third child.

Xiao Jinlang was in the imperial capital, and when he saw the telegram from Taipei, he sighed again and again——Zhou Qingfeng's breaking the game has always been invincible.But every time the scene was made too big, Lao Xiao had to bite the bullet and explain to the chairman and the prime minister.

The action to clean up Kong Xiangxi started in November, and it has been one and a half months now.This gang of corrupt officials is taking the fat and anointing of countless people. They can't just run away and squander them wantonly, and never take responsibility.

The real gold and silver confiscated from the Kong family is extremely important for domestic construction.Not only will [-] million US dollars be used to purchase the "Liberty Ship" and a ship repair yard, but a group of domestic personnel will also receive them as private crew members via France.

Fifty of these ships can be used to carry cargo, but the ship repair yard is like an industrial school, with an extremely extensive industrial chain behind it.

Ships are extremely complex industrial products. Shipbuilding requires the cooperation of dozens of industrial categories, from metallurgical manufacturing to mechanical processing to industrial design to installation and commissioning.

By mastering a ship repair yard, you can use it to publicly purchase a large number of industrial equipment that is urgently needed in the country, and you can also learn the latest and best science and technology.

The value of this can be much more than [-] million US dollars.

In addition, Sun Luoji also directly transferred funds to the Soviet Union for domestic purchases of weapons and equipment.For example, the MiG-15 is entering the PLA Air Force, and the payment is not from the imperial capital, but from a North American account.

Stalin has been very happy recently, and he also realized that Chinese comrades must have made a fortune in the United States, selling arms and selling them with great joy.

The Volunteer Army is currently under great pressure in North Korea. Commanders and fighters are dying every moment, and they urgently need weapons and equipment to compete with the US military.You can't just let the cutest person burn to death in the ice and snow for a little friendship.

So, how should I tell the second son of the Song family about this?Or just don't talk about it, and talk about it after the matter is over.

Xiao Jinlang's suggestion is - you can tell him, but after you tell him, you must be placed under house arrest, and the news is prohibited from leaking.The righteousness of the country does not tolerate personal feelings.

Because Zhou Qingfeng's attitude was very firm, he wanted to attack Soong Meiling, tied up this fat sheep as a meat ticket, and demanded a ransom from Chiang Kai-shek - Jiang Gong was also a member of the youth gang back then, so he should be able to understand this.

Chapter 32

On December 50, 12, Marco took office for one and a half months.His adjutant sent him the latest interpretation information, mainly photos taken by the RB-15 high-altitude reconnaissance plane, and a summary of radio interception.

The situation is not optimistic.

After the 'Brotherhood' took over the command of the United Nations Army, they did it smoothly at the beginning-disengaged from the first line of contact, and then bombarded them indiscriminately by virtue of their superiority in air and ground firepower.

But in just one and a half months, the situation changed.The number of anti-aircraft artillery regiments deployed by the Volunteers on the border and transportation lines has increased sixfold, from just four anti-aircraft artillery regiments to six anti-aircraft artillery divisions.

Among them, in addition to the anti-aircraft artillery regiment of the Thirteenth Corps, there is also the Ninth Corps that also brought its own air defense troops into the DPRK.But the real reason for the surge in the number of anti-aircraft artillery regiments is the large amount of assistance given by the Soviet Union.

The use of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns has made the B-29 bomber flying at an altitude of 5.00 meters no longer safe. The recent loss rate of each mission has reached a terrible [-]%.

In other words, if an air wing is not supplemented, it will be completely lost as long as it carries out [-] bombing missions.

But at present, the U.S. Far East Air Force flies out to bomb almost every day, and the air force officers complained loudly when the losses were large, and the pilots were even reluctant to attack easily.

Currently commanding the United Nations Air Force is Solo, executive member of the Brotherhood, replaced by General George Streitmeyer, whose main force is the Fifth Air Force of the US Army.

But Solo said privately that he had asked his subordinates to formulate the most powerful bombing plan and dropped millions of tons of bombs, but still failed to completely destroy the fighting spirit of the volunteers.

why?

The answer is all in the aerial photos.

The first is the radar. Zhou Qingfeng provided ten of the most advanced warning radars.Most of them are located on the Chinese border in the north, and American bombers cannot destroy them without crossing the border.

In addition, the Soviet Union also provided a lot of battlefield maneuvering radars for low-altitude supplementary blindness, so that U.S. fighter planes that tried to fly from the mountains often returned without success.

With the radar, the Volunteers can prepare a few minutes or even ten minutes in advance.The camouflage net was pulled up on the ground, the truck entered the air-raid shelter, and the anti-aircraft artillery unit set the fuze data on the shells, waiting for the target to be delivered to the door.

Marcos also has another piece of intelligence from Europe on hand. It is said that the Soviet Union recently broke through the mass production technology of VT fuzes. This fuze, which can greatly improve the efficiency of air defense, is fatal to U.S. fighter jets.

"There is no doubt that the group of 'Holy Light' must have improved the Soviet Union's technology and materials in semiconductors and radios. In return, the latest radio proximity fuze was used on the Korean battlefield."

This can also explain why the battle loss rate of the Far East Air Force has suddenly increased recently.If the anti-aircraft artillery group and the radar cooperate with each other well, it can indeed achieve such an effect.

It's only been a few days? !

Marco slammed his fist heavily on the desk.

Air superiority was lost too quickly.

Not only the anti-aircraft artillery, but also the Volunteer Air Force is also growing rapidly.

According to a public report, the Soviet Union provided China with hundreds of fighter planes.In addition to the trainer, even the most advanced MiG-15 is among them.

The Chinese Air Force is trained at the airport in the northeast.

According to the original history, those clay legs transferred from the army went abroad to fight after only a few months of training.Under the guidance of ground radar, they will fight against the world's strongest US Air Force.

The first generation of jet fighters did not have much avionics equipment, and the style of play was still the same as that of the propeller era.It is to see who has more power-climbing and gaining momentum, diving and attacking.

The F-86 is better than the MiG-15 in terms of man-machine control, but it does not have an advantage in power performance.

What's more, according to the information obtained by the US military attache in Moscow, the Soviet Union not only provided China with the MiG-15, but also provided the bear version of the 'B-29' - Tu-4.

The reason is very simple, the Chinese have given money, not a lot.

The Soviet Union felt that the Tu-4 was rapidly becoming obsolete, so they simply sold the recovered funds—China would own this thing three years in advance.In a few months, the U.S. troops in North Korea may be bombed by volunteers.

Marco was very irritable.Sitting in his office every day, he read all kinds of intelligence and relayed it to Father Clark.But the priest didn't feel anything about the information, and would just let his subordinates figure it out.

figure it out?

What use is that to you?

Now the United Nations Army feels that its commander has changed.

In the past, MacArthur was arrogant and domineering, confident and arrogant, and he spoke and acted like a "dragon proud of the sky".

Now the priest's version of 'MacArthur' is like a good baby, without any momentum.Even President Truman, who was far away in Washington, felt that MacArthur, who had always been disobedient, stopped talking nonsense casually.

Originally, in another four months, Truman would dismiss MacArthur and replace Li Qiwei.Now it seems that Father Clark can continue to work in this position.

"God, I really don't know if this is good news or bad news." Marco Shi's companions were having a good time, but he himself was scratching his head in distress.

Meanwhile, Moscow, the Kremlin.

Comrade Lavrenti Pavlovich Beria, Marshal of the Soviet Union, Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers and Minister of Internal Affairs, entered Stalin's office.

This is Office No. 150 located on the second floor of the Presidential Building of the Kremlin. It is very spacious, with 5 square meters and [-] windows. It is not a problem to hold a small meeting.

Next door to the office is Uncle Steel's lounge.He furnished the office with his favorite oak, added oak dado on the walls, and replaced the doors with oak.

"Comrade Stalin, I have something to report to you." Beria stood straight in front of Stalin with a document in his arms.

"Let's talk, Comrade Beria." Stalin was reviewing documents. He often worked in the middle of the night, and he also liked to drink some Georgian wine to soothe his spirit.

Beria opened the document in his hand, "It is about the war that Chinese comrades are fighting in Korea, and the goods they shipped from Europe."

"Europe?" Stalin stopped the pen in his hand, "Why Europe?"

"China's Premier asked us to send air force to aid the war in Korea in Moscow in October, but we did not agree. In November, he temporarily decided to visit several countries in Eastern Europe, including East Germany and the Czech Republic.

Since last month, China has suddenly used an account in the United States to send us money to buy a large amount of arms.This time they placed orders with East Germany and the Czech Republic to purchase industrial equipment such as mining, railways, and machine tools. The amount was not small. "

If Beria can say that it is not small, it must be hundreds of millions of dollars.

At the end of World War II, the Warsaw Pact had not yet been established, but the Economic Cooperation Council already existed.

But the economic and trade organization of the socialist camp has inherent flaws from the very beginning.It includes too few people, not enough markets, and lacks the foreign exchange to trade with other countries.

The key is not to control the ocean.

East Germany is still poor, and the Czech Republic is not rich.Xiao Jinlang suggested to the Prime Minister that we should broaden our horizons to purchase industrial equipment from Eastern European countries.

Compared with the stupid Soviet products, East Germany and the Czech Republic still have their own uniqueness in industry, and the service is not bad.

Now that the 'Holy Light' group is sending money to the country, the Prime Minister has to listen to Xiao Jinlang's opinion.His trip to East Germany and the Czech Republic was warmly welcomed and indeed opened his eyes and made friends.

Xiao Jinlang even reminded the Prime Minister to go to East Germany to hire a group of people to do industrial development planning in China—the industrial planning done by Mao Zi is too deceitful.In this regard, the Germans have experience and lessons, and they are more rigorous.

Five years after the end of World War II, East Germany's economy was recovering rapidly, and the market was desperately needed.Xiao Jinlang hoped that East Germany would produce people, technology and equipment, and first update China's mining and railway systems.

Now part of the purchased equipment is being shipped to Leningrad, and then shipped along the Trans-Siberian Railway to Northeast China.

Beria believed that it was necessary to pay attention to this change, but Stalin did not care much. "We cannot prevent normal trade among socialist countries."

Beria continued: "In addition to normal industrial equipment, the Chinese are also purchasing World War II equipment everywhere in Europe. For example, the half-track infrared searchlight vehicles of Nazi Germany and the sealed night-vision 'Black Panther' tanks.

We traced the source of this batch of equipment and found that they came from the warehouse of the US military station in West Germany.This batch of equipment was loaded onto the cargo ship at almost the price of selling scrap iron, and after forging the destination, it was also shipped to Leningrad. "

Night vision equipment is currently shining on the Korean battlefield.

Zhou Qingfeng bought fifty sets of infrared equipment to modify the T-34, which caused the US military to suffer a great loss on the battlefield.At present, more than ten sets of this batch of equipment have been lost, and the rest are regarded as treasures by the volunteers and will not be used easily.

In exchange for more aid from the Soviet Union, five sets of infrared equipment were sent to Moscow for imitation after the chairman personally approved it.

The military personnel in Moscow were very shocked after research. These 'American-made' night vision devices are impeccable in technology and craftsmanship, and are a generation ahead of similar devices being developed by the Soviet Union.

Now the Chinese actually went to Germany to get night vision equipment.Although the performance is not as good, it was obtained secretly from under the noses of the US military.

"The Chinese comrades got ten 'Black Panther G' with night vision goggles, and fifteen 'Owl' night vision reconnaissance vehicles, which are not many. But the strange thing is that on the Korean battlefield, the Americans themselves did not Use similar equipment.

In addition, there is a large archive of American and German radio stations, as well as stocks of tents, army boots, cans, explosives and the like.

There are many types of goods transported, but they are all useful on the battlefield, but China is temporarily unable to produce them on a large scale.

The key is that this batch of military supplies is very cheap.I asked the Chinese personnel in charge of transportation.They say these things are almost free.The U.S. military responsible for guarding the warehouse received an order and wished they could empty all the warehouses. "

This news made Stalin ponder for a while, and said after a while: "It is very likely that the Chinese comrades have planted their own people inside the US military. We should pay attention to this situation."

When it comes to attaching importance to it, the chairman of the imperial capital also attaches great importance to it.

Xiao Jinlang's assistance to the country is very beneficial and important, but now there is also a problem in front of him-planning to kidnap Song Meiling is a big deal and must be reported.

In the Juxiang Bookstore in Fengzeyuan, Zhongnanhai, the imperial capital, a meeting was being held involving the commander-in-chief, the chief of the general staff, the director of the general political department, the head of the general logistics department, the chief of operations of the military commission, the commander of the air force, and the commander of the navy.

With a shy face, Xiao Jinlang stood among a group of bigwigs and gave a report.

"Currently we have collected 35 pairs of cashmere military boots, millions of helmets, 1 different types of machine guns and 30 million rounds of ammunition, [-] small and medium-caliber mortars, and [-] rounds of shells in Europe.

There are also [-] field tents, five military-level field hospitals, [-] regiment-level field rescue stations, [-] radio stations of different models, and thousands of aircraft and tank engines in various states.

There are also some odds and ends, binoculars and luncheon meat or something.

This is only the first batch of equipment we have collected, and the specific number will only increase or decrease.Just keep digging, and you're sure to find more useful goodies.

Europe and the United States are all industrial countries, and the materials they left in World War II are far beyond our imagination.These things are all thrown in the warehouse waiting to be destroyed or scrapped, and we can become a real combat force when we get them.

In order to continuously pick up these materials in stock, the current actions in the United States are very important. I hope that the chairman and the leaders will seriously consider it. "

When everyone present heard the numbers listed by Xiao Jinlang, they were all quite amazed.

The Huaihai Campaign lasted for several months, and Turkey destroyed a total of 105 rounds of [-]mm shells.

Now on the Korean battlefield, if the U.S. military only fires [-] rounds of shells one day, the volunteers will be greatly relieved, and will feel that the enemy has not had enough to eat today?

After listening to Xiao Jinlang's explanation, the chairman laughed and asked, "Are you worried that we will stop you from arresting Song Meiling?"

Uh... Xiao Jinlang was stunned, thinking: "Aren't you going to stop me?"

The room was full of old revolutionaries who had experienced family ruin and death, and went through bloody storms, and the whole room burst into laughter.

Chapter 33 Just Revenge

In mid-December, the Gaima plateau was cold and the north of North Korea was covered with ice and snow.

In this chilling weather, a plume of smoke rose from Xingnan Port, north of Wonsan, and a big explosion occurred in the oil depot at the port, and the flames rolled and spread to the surroundings.

The port was in a mess, and both the U.S. and South Korean troops were struggling to put out the fire.

In the sky, more than a dozen US Navy F4U 'pirate' fighter jets in charge of air control are fighting hard to drive away the twenty or so 'MiG-15's that came to attack.

The 'MiG-15' is a jet fighter at any rate. Although the pilots are rookies, the performance of the aircraft is much stronger than that of the propeller-type 'pirate'.

The U.S. Navy has not yet fully replaced its jet carrier-based aircraft, and its elite pilots are still using propeller fighters.Facing the 'MiG-15', they fought extremely hard. If they didn't pay attention, they would be bitten by the tail and shot down.

What's even more frightening is that these batches of 'MiG-15' are like sharks that smell blood, and are particularly interested in the mountains of military supplies piled up on the port.

Fuel, shells, trucks, artillery, tanks, the entire Xingnan Port is full of logistics materials required by the 10,000+ troops of the Tenth Army of the US Army, the amount exceeds 30 tons.

The port cannot be moved, and the supplies are also dead targets. Once they are targeted, it will be a natural disaster.

"God, another 'MiG-15' is coming." In the air defense observation post, the US military officer holding the binoculars shouted loudly.

The US anti-aircraft artillery vehicles on the ground were firing bang bang, and anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns such as M19 and M16 were banging endlessly, but none of this could prevent a wounded 'MiG-15' from crashing straight into the ground.

What was hit was a shell dump, and US military engineers built a simple storage warehouse.
