From to 1935 2020

MUUM’s multiple cappuccino rewards, reminders, etc., my plan this month is to update at least [-] words a day.

-------------------- Chapter 144 Dark Thread --------------------

Because of the Feb. [-] incident, all planes were grounded nationwide. Huang Ke and Elena stayed in Japan until March [-], when the flight ban was lifted, and they had the chance to leave Japan.

As early as February 28, when the blockade was lifted in Tokyo, Elena immediately visited the Chichibu Palace as soon as she was able to return to Tokyo. However, this time he was not visiting Prince Yongren, but the prince's wife, Princess Setsuko.

At that time, Elena sent a meeting gift, a whole box of streptomycin—it is said that Mrs. Setsuko was asked to come forward to provide free streptomycin treatment for the families of soldiers in the Japanese Imperial Army, and at the same time provide medical treatment for tuberculosis in Tokyo. Toddlers are given free medicine.

During this extraordinary period, the two provided the most critical capital for Prince Yongren to "buy the military" - these medicines, which are enough for about a thousand children to use for a month, which is equivalent to a course of medicine. (The dosage for children is usually half to one-third that of adults)

As for the follow-up medicines, of course they are gone, that’s right, they are gone, I will give you half of the treatment first, if you still want it, take the money.For the Japanese, Huang Ke is very good at this matter.

What is early investment, this is early investment. At this time, Emperor Hirohito is only seriously ill, not yet critically ill.A bunch of villains who want to "fortune" are still waiting and watching, and Elena ran over to "show favor" to Yongren earlier than those desperate people like Araki Sadao from the Imperial Daoist School, and offered substantial support .

Prince Yongren, who has obtained streptomycin, can directly use him to buy the hearts of the lower-level soldiers.Take it out for large-scale charity, and it can be used to gain the goodwill of the people.

According to Huang Ke: Doing this now is to buy the bottom before the stock explodes.

Although Yong Ren felt that Huang Ke was very wary of "evil intentions", but it was Elena who came forward. After getting the medicine, he still accepted it with a "complicated" mood that he didn't even understand. This gesture of goodwill, followed by quick action—in the name of the Chichibu Palace, he treated and delivered medicines to low-level civilian children with tuberculosis on a large scale in Tokyo, and immediately earned great favor among the people.

For a time, the whole of Japan was full of praise for Prince Yongren. Compared with Hirohito, Prince Yongren had a good reputation among the people. Now that Emperor Showa was seriously ill, many people at the bottom had put their hopes for tomorrow on him.

Everyone knows what happened afterwards.

After Huang Ke and Elena delivered the medicine, they boarded the plane on March [-]nd, and before leaving Japan, Setsuko even rushed to the airport to see them off.To Huang Ke's surprise, when the two left, Gongyi, the son of Xiyuansi Gongwang, also came to the airport to see them off, and gave them a bunch of gifts.

Afterwards, Xiao Huang Ke found out the true identity of Nishiharaji Gongyi through Da Huang Ke: this person is actually a rare leftist among Japanese people, and he also had contact with Sorge and was imprisoned because of him. …

A "secret connection" channel at the top of Japan was initially established during this process.

"In the future, whether it's doing business with the Japanese Navy in the Shanghai Concession, or after the outbreak of the Pacific War, pulling in the Japanese at an appropriate time, stabbing the Americans in the back, or deploying in Nanyang, it will be much easier to have such a relationship. gone."

Although so far, Prince Yongren has a very bad impression of Huang Ke.But with the outbreak of the future war, the various predictions that Huang Ke made in front of him that night gradually became reality: first the "truth", then "dream talk", and in the end, he was desperate, and he might have to choose Huang Ke "planned" in advance for him "crazy talk".

This is the purpose of Huang Ke's effort to "perform" at Chichibu Palace.

And after the mutiny, during the few days when Japan was temporarily locked down, Eileen also walked around among the princes in the upper class and gave away several pieces of jewelry.According to Huang Ke's suggestion, Huang Ke's carefully crafted life-threatening necklace was presented to the wife of Prince Hatohiko of Chaoxiang Palace.

As for Princess Shijinzi, Huang Ke did not present such a terrible thing - the reason is that she and Prince Yongren were pregnant with a daughter after marriage, and then had an accidental miscarriage, and then she was childless for the rest of her life. Fertility.It really killed her. If Emperor Yongren changed his wife, wouldn't he have a future? (Note: Prince Yongren is also unprecedented in history.)

Prince Jiuyan of Chaoxiang Palace was the real murderer of the Nanjing Massacre. Historically, he escaped trial, but in this plane, Huang Ke has made up his mind that he and his family will end up worse than Yuren's family.

On March [-], Huang Ke took the opportunity to return to Tianjin. In the warehouse of Tianjin Port, Huang Ke received the "prohibited equipment" just brought from the United States.

A full two hundred tons of TNT explosives, ten M2 Laoganma machine guns, and a full 20 rounds of 12.7mm machine gun ammunition.

The above-mentioned equipment was smuggled from the United States by Huang Ke through his "partner" DuPont.DuPont was originally a well-known explosives manufacturer in the United States, and it has close contacts with the US military. It is a piece of cake to transport these munitions to China.

The explosives were produced by DuPont itself, while the machine guns and bullets were secretly sold by military personnel who had contacts with DuPont in the name of "disposing of abandoned firearms", or to be more precise, "stolen and sold" to China—and Chang Kaishen's generals in China are not the only ones who poach the country's corners on empty pay. The American empire is also a master at playing this trick. 10 very old godmother, 20 rounds of ammunition, what a trifle!Just report it according to the training loss.

And this was the first attempt between the corrupt military and Huang Ke to make a deal. Before the Pacific War, the US military, especially the army, was actually poor.Because they are stolen goods, the price of firearms and bullets is one-third cheaper than official imports.

The only problem is that these things need to be reported to the customs and it is easy for outsiders to know.Fortunately, at this time, Pan Hannian had completely settled the Tianjin Customs. These sensitive materials passed through the customs easily and were stored in the warehouse, waiting for Huang Ke to come back to receive and transport them away.

On March [-], the two quietly flew to Yan'an. When they landed at Yan'an Airport that evening, Huang Ke and Elena noticed that besides one Soviet-style long-distance transport plane, there were eight other planes parked at the airport. biplane.

At first, Huang Ke thought it was a PO-2 trainer made in the Soviet Union.When I asked after landing, it turned out to be an Air 5 reconnaissance/bomber made in the Soviet Union. It was the "four wings" aircraft with strong ground attack capabilities that Huang Ke asked Stalin for by name.

Aier-5 (also known as R-5), a two-wing, two-seat single-engine piston tactical reconnaissance and attack aircraft designed by Polikarpov in 1928, has many derivative models, with a total output of more than 6000 aircraft. The fuselage is made of metal and Wood, covered with cloth, fixed landing gear can replace sleds or pontoons, the maximum speed is 228 kilometers per hour.There is a 1mm fixed machine gun in the nose, and a double-linked movable machine gun of the same caliber in the rear seat, which can carry 7.62 kg of bombs.The power unit is a M-1 engine (power 250 horsepower, imitating the German BMW-1 engine),

In 1932, in order to expand local influence, Sheng Shicai, the supervisor of Xinjiang, China, asked the Soviet government to help open an aviation team and aviation school, introduce Soviet aircraft and hire Soviet instructors. Among them, 12 R-5s were presented by the Soviet Union in 1934.

This aircraft is a biplane, an old aircraft developed in 1928. It is not qualified for air combat, but it is used as a ground attack aircraft, but it is the best low-altitude, low-speed, high-performance weapon against the Majiajun cavalry.This aircraft was strongly recommended to Huang Ke by netizens who had played ace air combat games in the 21st century. When Sheng Shicai and Ma Zhongying fought for Xinjiang, the Soviet Air Force that participated in the war at that time used this aircraft to bomb the cavalry unit of Ma's army.

Because it is already an "outdated" old aircraft, and the price is extremely cheap, Stalin directly ordered the Red Army pilots who are learning to fly in the Soviet Union and have completed the second stage of flight training to directly drive the supporting aircraft and use the method of transition Fly back to Yan'an.These pilots arrived in Yan'an a week ago—and all of these pilots flew to Yan'an from the airport controlled by Sheng Shicai in Xinjiang.

In fact, what Huang Ke wants more is the An-2 transport aircraft (that is, the Yun-1946 in later generations). As long as a machine gun is installed in the cabin, this aircraft can be used as an air gunboat, hovering in the air for a long time and strafing ground cavalry .It's a pity that this machine was not born until after [-], and its core engine with thousands of horsepower cannot be found in the world at this time.

After getting off the plane, Huang Ke casually checked the plane aided by the Soviets.He pressed his hand on the engine hood of one of the planes with his perception ability. As soon as he concentrated, he instantly generated the complex internal structure of the engine and the wear and tear of key parts in his mind.

"They are all second-hand old planes that have been used for a long time...but it is not surprising. If I am the leader of the country, I will help the younger brother, and I also like to give the unnecessary and outdated garbage to others first. Like the chairman He is the only one in the world who takes out new products and conscientious products, and uses them better for others than for himself.”

Huang Ke withdrew his hand, but thought of the eight newest and brand new Nakajima engines in the space of the cross, both of which were about the same size, and the latter was a new product (relative), manufactured for the Japanese by introducing British Bristol engine technology, It can be modified on these El-5 reconnaissance bombers.However, this requires the guidance of experts from the Soviet Union. Huang Ke, who has no modification experience in this area, dare not do anything casually.

Huang Ke obtained four complete Type [-] carrier-based fighter jets from Mitsubishi this time. Unfortunately, this matter had a huge impact. Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, these four planes could basically only be kept as collections. If you dare to take it out for public use, it can only be used secretly as a training machine at most.

As for the maintenance parts of the aircraft, he didn't have to worry about it. When Huang Ke bought it from Mitsubishi for zero yuan this time, he deliberately took a lot of consumable spare parts, such as tires and steel wires.The last time Nanchang bought it for zero yuan, the Nanchang Aircraft Assembly Factory at that time was actually newly built for assembling Italian CR32 fighter jets. At that time, only some fuselage materials arrived in the warehouse, but they were still swept away by Huang Ke.

"Stalin sent the plane over, and the relevant bomb-making raw materials should be delivered by June. At that time, the eastern and western fronts will be attacked at the same time, and the main force of the Ma family army will be wiped out in one wave!"

Huang Ke was imagining the battle scene when he encircled and wiped out Qingma in the future, and when he was evaluating how to modify the plane sent by the Soviets to enhance its ground attack power, the special car from the headquarters had already arrived.

At the headquarters, Huang Ke and Elena made a detailed report on everything they experienced during their stay in Japan.

During this period, Emperor Hirohito was only "seriously ill", and the official statement was only "slight physical impairment", but Huang Ke knew it was the first thing, and reported: "It is very likely that he suffered serious burns during the bombing. The publicity has certainly shrunk."

At this time in Yan'an, almost all the main leaders of the upper echelons of the Red Army gathered.Among the old acquaintances, the only ones I didn't see were Zeng Zhongsheng and Xu Shuai—they were in Lanzhou now, responsible for maintaining military pressure on the Ma family army, and at the same time assisting the Red Second Front Army who had just arrived in Lanzhou to start the army reorganization.

In the past winter of January and February, the Red Army in the entire Gansu-Shaanxi region conducted rigorous winter training, and everything was being prepared for the March offensive.

The chairman asked: "If Yuren dies, will Yongren succeed him?"

Huang Ke said: "It should be him. According to the historical data we have found, among the four sons of Emperor Taisho, Hirohito is the most ambitious one. The other three, Yongren and Chongren, are relatively less ambitious than him." , and they are all pro-British and American factions. But this is not important, because it is actually the military that decides Japan’s national policy, to be precise, the militarists below who want to invade China and want to invade China.”

Regarding Huang Ke's actions in Japan, the higher-ups have no objections.Whether it is bombing the imperial palace, military academy or burning the aircraft factory, it has severely hit Japan, especially now that the emperor has been half-dead. The Red Army acts in March.

After reporting the incident in Japan, Huang Ke took Elena to Pagoda Mountain.In today's Pagoda Mountain, many caves have been opened in the belly of the mountain.

One of the caves was used as the most important chemical drug production base of the Red Army, and the original drug of sildenafil was produced there.As for the synthesis site of other flammable and explosive dangerous chemicals, a row of newly built houses next to the cave is used as a temporary production workshop.

Another air-raid cave has just been built recently, and its main task is to store the "troublesome" equipment Huang Ke got.

For example: the two overly advanced cars that Huang Ke used to pretend to be in Shanghai, and a bunch of refrigerators, color TVs, washing machines and other advanced electrical appliances of the 21st century.Now they are all stored there centrally.

Due to the large area occupied by the four planes, the current space in the cave is only enough for two planes, and the remaining two planes were finally placed in two newly built cave dwellings for temporary storage.

Knowing that Huang Ke had brought the latest Japanese fighter jets, more than a dozen high-ranking members of the Red Army came to watch the excitement.Airplanes are nothing new to the Red Army in the Soviet area, especially the comrades from the Red Fourth Front Army. They had accidentally captured a Kuomintang reconnaissance plane (Lenin) a few years ago and made a long time.

After arriving in Ganshan and Shaanxi, with the continuous arrival of Soviet aid, they have recently directly received eight Aier 5 reconnaissance/bombers "gifted" by Stalin. However, they are still the first aircraft made of all metal. see for the first time.

In the cave base where "sensitive" materials were stored, Huang Ke introduced this aircraft to everyone with information obtained from later generations.

"This is a Type 96 warship fighter that will appear on the Chinese battlefield in a year. It is brand new, and it has only been tested a few times before leaving the factory."

Boss Zhu said: "Looking at the appearance, it seems to be much more advanced than the planes that the Soviet comrades assisted us."

"In the past few years, the Soviet Union has undergone a period of intense industrialization and modernization. As far as the current situation is concerned, the Soviet Union is indeed not as good as Japan in terms of aviation industry. And this Type [-] fighter..."

Huang Ke frowned while introducing.

When the Anti-Japanese War broke out in July 1937, the Type 590 carrier-based fighter was almost the best "active" fighter in the world.However, the plane that Huang Ke got was an early model with an engine of only 720 horsepower, not the improved version ([-] horsepower) used for landing in the Chinese battlefield. The performance of the two is very different.

At that time, the only aircraft in the world that could definitely surpass him was the Hurricane fighter that was just equipped by the British Royal Air Force—but the first mass-produced Hurricane fighter did not fly until after October 1937, and the aircraft in Huang Ke's hands The first batch of Type 36 was the first batch of Type [-] mass-produced in Japan in [-].Although the aircraft factory was burned down, the actual impact was not significant, and the equipment was delayed for two or three months at most.

According to the data of later generations, in the Chinese theater, the only fighter of the same period that can compete equally with it is the last British biplane: the Gladiator fighter.The Soviet I16 fighter jet and I153 biplane can also compete with it, but of these two aircraft, the former is very difficult to fly, while the latter will not enter service until 1938.

As for the B-type of the German BF109 fighter jet, it was just developed in 1937, with very little output and many systemic problems...

"Netizens in the 21st century helped me find relevant information. The 590-horsepower engine is actually very backward. The Gauntlet fighter that the British eliminated by the Gladiator this year uses the same engine. The Gauntlet is now in the hands of the British. Retirement is treated as obsolete goods, it is very easy to get it, and it can be replaced directly, but I feel that the money is not worth the money, tasteless, tasteless."

In fact, throughout World War II, from the beginning to the end, the Japanese engine production technology was a generation or even a generation and a half behind the West.

When Huang Ke introduced the Type [-] fighter jet to the Red Army executives, his hand touched the fuselage of the aircraft, and he habitually used his perception to perceive the internal frame structure of the fuselage. He immediately understood how the Japanese used "" Such a poor" engine, a little trick to fly such a good performance.

In addition to the performance crushing of the monoplane over the inherent speed advantage of the biplane, this aircraft is worthy of being the product of the designer of the "Zero Fighter", Jiro Horikoshi. The design concept of extreme weight reduction: a large number of holes are drilled on the spar to reduce weight. The empty weight of the whole aircraft is 1250 kg, which is 300 kg lighter than the British Gladiator.It is more than 3 kilograms lighter than the Hawker 100 biplane, another main fighter in China in the future.

In history, in order to deal with the Type [-] fighter jets, the Chinese Air Force has suffered enough.

Huang Ke looked at the latest Japanese fighter jet in his hand, and felt very depressed: If he handed over one of the planes to the Soviets, it would be of great benefit to the future against this plane and to speed up the development of similar Soviet fighter jets.But the biggest question is how to hand it over?

The main reason was back to the earliest issue: the confidentiality of Huang Ke and Elena's identities.

Stalin was no fool.This incident in Japan is so big that the whole world still thinks that it was caused by civil strife in Japan and the mutiny, and has not thought of it elsewhere for the time being.Now that the plane is handed over at this time, the Soviet Union will definitely ask a lot of questions about where it came from.

After Huang Ke explained the situation, the chairman comforted him and said: "After all, Japan is already an industrial country. Militarism's crazy armaments can indeed form a short-term advantage in technology in a short period of time. , not one or two weapons, but what you once said, the comprehensive national strength of the country, and most importantly, the people's hearts! As long as we have no problems in China, another historical time and space, the strength of which is more than ten times stronger than that of the Japanese U.S. imperialism is not the same as being defeated by our Red Army in North Korea, um, was it later defeated by the Volunteer Army?"

Huang Ke thought for a while, and felt that he had indeed fallen into the trap of "weapon-only theory", so he quickly put the matter aside, and then began to think about how to use the spare engines he got. .

Putting aside the issue of the plane for the time being, the equipment obtained from the United States was unloaded. After the handover was completed, the two left Yan'an the next day and rushed back to Shanghai.So the reason for the rush is that the "HSBC zero-dollar purchase" operation in Shanghai has already started at this point in time.

Lu Chishui sent a telegram that they started digging the tunnel seven days ago, and it took only four days to easily dig a distance of 20 meters, and then encountered a problem that only Huang Ke could solve.

--------------------Chapter 145 My career successor-------------------

In early February, near the Shanghai Concession, someone rented a small courtyard house and converted it into a cement board manufacturing plant.

There are only three workers employed by this cement slab factory, including the boss. What they do every day is pound cement, weave steel bars, and repeatedly manufacture reinforced concrete slabs with a size of 1700x300x30.What is more interesting is that the surface of these concrete slabs is prefabricated with depressions near the four sides of the surface, which are about 10mm deep slots, and the edges are shaped like pins. The four concrete slabs are inserted together to form a cross-sectional scale. About 1700mmx1700mm, a square box with a height of 300mm.

The reinforced concrete slabs manufactured by the slab factory are not stingy at all when using the supporting steel bars.Out of curiosity, some passers-by or neighbors asked the boss what the boards are used for, and the answer they got was, "Of course they are used for building and decorating houses."

The prefabricated cement boards are constantly being built and piled up in the yard, and the piles are getting higher and higher, almost filling the yard, but none of them are sold.It wasn't until the last few days at the end of February that the boss got a car and pulled the finished boards to the concession area, where there was a vacancy again, and then continued to manufacture new boards.......

This private workshop-style construction panel factory was naturally newly built by Huang Ke for "HSBC zero-yuan purchase", and the project leader is Lu Chishui.In order to accomplish this feat, which is enough to be included in the history policy, Lu Chishui was first "forced" to work as a coal miner for a month in a mine in the Soviet Union, and then, under the training of a group of experts, and other selected comrades, Specifically targeted training.

The prefabricated cement boards are inserted into each other to form a "square box", which is the most practical "hole-piercing" support plan conceived by Soviet experts after measuring the local soil conditions on the spot.

The specific process is to let the diggers dig out a hole about 1700x1700 and half a meter deep in the ground, then insert the prefabricated boards and insert them along the card slots to form a square supporting skeleton.

Here in the Shanghai Concession, the water content of the soil is frighteningly high.The location of the excavation is to start three meters below ground.When the pool was dug, Lu Chishui, who was in charge, noticed that the 8mx8m pool was dug in advance, and the water infiltrated from the surrounding soil layer accumulated in the pool to a depth of more than half a meter in just one night.Even though cement boards and special waterproofing were added to the pool later, a small amount of water continued to seep through the gaps.

Not to mention at the end of February, when the digging began.

"It's literally digging holes in the rain."

While digging a hole, water was dripping from the walls. No, it was raining to be precise. Everyone was working in raincoats and long rain boots. The working environment was extremely harsh.Since the construction section is only less than 1.7 meters, only two people can dig the hole at most each time.Every time the soil layer in front of the hole seeps and leaks, the water will soon flood the instep.Although the specially designed prefabricated "cement load-bearing box" has played a good role in supporting and preventing collapse, when making cement boards, the paper used for paving the floor is also deliberately selected expensive oil paper to enhance the anti-seepage effect.But still can't stop a large amount of water from continuously seeping from the gap adjacent to the cement socket.

During the first ten meters of excavation, the problem of water seepage was not very serious. After the excavation reached 20 meters, the longer the distance, the more water seeped out.But the bigger trouble is: the distance to pass through the excavated soil is getting longer and longer, which is more and more inconvenient.

Fortunately, the personnel who participated in this operation were all carefully selected, the most determined members of the Communist Party. Although the working conditions were difficult, no one complained.

The main reason why Lu Chishui asked Yan'an for help was the excavated soil that was piled high outside—it was not impossible to transport it outside and dump it.The problem is that this is a concession area, and there will be inspections for vehicles entering and exiting.It's a long-term job, and the constant presence of earth-moving trucks can easily arouse suspicion.

Details, details are the most important.Many major cases have been solved, and many modernist "predecessors who bought with zero yuan in the bank" "died before leaving school" in the process of handling the case. It is these small details that show flaws.

Before Lu Chishui was sent back to China, he had "communicated" with the bank robbery police and bank robbers.

The former is the former Tsarist Russian policeman who solved the robbery of the National Bank of Georgia. He was almost shot by the anti-rebels because he personally arrested Comrade Stalin, but he was leniently "pardoned" by Comrade Stalin. , from two opposite angles, positive and negative, to "teach opportunities face to face" to Lu Chishui.

Lu Chishui, who accepted the "teaching skills" of "the great sage, the sage and the sage, the steel comrade", naturally tried hard to avoid showing his feet when he committed the crime.After learning that Huang Ke had returned to China, he immediately asked Yan'an for help.

Knowing that this matter was of great significance to the revolutionary cause, the central government quickly sent Huang Ke and Elena back to Shanghai.

Huang Ke used his space equipment to pack the soil that had filled most of the pool and the outside room into the cross space in an hour, and then transported it to the outside of the concession and threw it away—in order to prevent it from being exposed, in Luchishui He was reminded that he dumped all the soil accumulated for many days into the mouth of the Huangpu River instead of just throwing it away in an open space.

After seeing the situation at the scene, Huang Ke and Elena decided to dig by themselves in order to speed up the excavation. The two of them have the space ability. , can be put into the cross space in advance, which greatly reduces the transportation process.

After the two made their move, the progress of the next work was extremely fast. On the first day after joining, they dug 20 meters in one go.The reason why it is so fast is that the underground soil layer here has been soaked in water for a long time and is abnormally soft. It is very easy to excavate. What really affects the progress of the excavation is how the soil is transported out of the tunnel. The deeper the trouble.But with the advantage of space equipment, the two became human-shaped shield machines, and the excavation speed was astonishingly fast.
