Chapter 493 Joint Military Exercises

9ooo2983

Bu is the yuan of this country, and Zhao Bei is bluffing for the Nanyuan Air Base in the whole country... The important role played is very clear, and the assurances and bold words of the base commander Meng Fei are basically credible, but. He asked Meng Fei to come to this commander's hall today, not to listen to Commander Meng's bold words, he called Meng Fei over for another purpose.

"It's been two years since the Nanyuan Air Base was established, and the center is very satisfied with your work, and now, those eagles you have cultivated really need to exercise their wings. Now the hub has an idea. Prepare for a joint exercise with the German air forces to see who is the real air hero. So, you'd better start selecting good pilots now, and once the German air force arrives, this Sino-German air confrontation exercise can take place. ”

The president's words made Meng Fei raise his eyebrows, sit up straight, and asked, "The German Air Force is coming to China?" When are they coming? In what name? ”

Zhao Bei said: "Some time ago, I discussed with the German minister in China the issue of deepening the friendship between the two countries, and the German minister suggested a friendly visit to the navy, and I agreed to this suggestion, and the German emperor also agreed. Therefore, in a few days, the German High Seas Fleet will send a detachment from Europe to sail halfway around the world, and the destination is Qingdao, and along with the fleet, there will also be a flying squadron of the German Air Fleet, and the planes will also be the latest German aircraft, loaded on merchant ships and transported to China. The leader of the German flying team is your old friend Yinmaiman, and this time, you can have a good chance of practicing your skills. ”

"Hah! Yin Maiman actually came over, and that kid is also promoted now, right? Otherwise, it would be unreasonable for me to bully a little ensign as a dignified colonel. ”

Meng Fei became excited. He was now only interested in two things, a beautiful young woman, and flying and airplanes, but if he had to pick out the one thing that fascinated him the most from women and flying, he would have to pick the latter.

In fact, when the war broke out between Italy and the Ottoman Empire in order to compete for the colonies in North Africa last year, this Commander Meng couldn't wait to go to Africa to watch the war, because he heard that in that war, the Italian air force showed great prestige, and Italy was also a small power, and the aviation industry may not be as good as Germany, but it was much stronger than Japan, so Meng Fei reported to the 6th Military Department after the war broke out, requesting to go to Cyrenaica in North Africa as a "military observer". And even the Italian embassy contacted him privately, but in the end, the 6th Military Department denied Commander Meng's request for transfer, because Nanyuan Air Base could not do without him, so Meng Fei's trip to Africa came to naught after all, but the 6th Military Department did not completely disappoint Commander Meng. In the end, a "military observer group" was sent to Cyrenaica, and when Meng Fei inquired, he learned that this was the result of Mr. President's personal inquiry, so Meng Fei admired the president's "strategic vision" even more.

Now, the German Air Force is actually going to China, and it also wants to conduct a military confrontation exercise with the Chinese Air Force, how can this not make Meng Fei excited? After all, Germany is a 6-military power, and since two years ago sent a military delegation to China to "learn from experience", the German ** team has a strong interest in aircraft, and because of this, Germany's aviation industry has made great progress, especially in the motor technology, but because of the aviation motive products provided to China are outdated. Therefore, Meng Fei really wanted to borrow this. An opportunity to conduct military confrontation exercises to see what level of German aircraft engine manufacturing has reached.

"I'm not done yet. When I heard that the German fleet was going to visit China, the US minister came to me yesterday and told me. The US Government also plans to send a fleet to China for a friendly visit, and it is also interested in a joint military exercise. ”

Seeing that Meng Fei was so excited, Zhao Bei smiled faintly, for the character of this powerful subordinate. He also knows better. This person is a natural blue sky pride, he belongs to the blue sky, and the sky is the stage for him to show his strengths.

"Why do Americans want to intervene in everything?" Meng Fei was a little strange.

"Not because of the Japanese? After the great anti-Japanese uprising on the Korean Peninsula, the entire peninsula was in chaos, although the Japanese army vigorously encircled and suppressed, but the spark had already shown the trend of burning the prairies, especially in the northern mountainous areas, where the guerrillas were everywhere, the guerrillas were elusive, and there was theoretical guidance, and the Japanese army was naturally exhausted; although after more than two years of encirclement and suppression, the Japanese colonial army had regained control of the southern part of the Korean Peninsula, but the northern mountainous area was still an active area of anti-Japanese guerrillas, and the Japanese colonial army was attacked at two ends in three days. The Japanese Government has been suffering from a headache for the past two years or so of military confrontation, and the Japanese Government has determined that the anti-Japanese guerrillas have the support of our country behind them, and even the shadow of the Russians, and the Japanese do not dare to provoke the Russian Government, and they seem to be allies of Japan in their mouths. However, the Japanese Government intends to impose a diplomatic code on Japan. pressure, forcing our side to abandon its support for the anti-Japanese guerrillas on the Korean Peninsula.

According to reliable information from diplomatic channels, the Japanese prime minister made a statement in the Diet the day before yesterday, saying that if the forces standing behind the anti-Japanese guerrillas do not stop supplying weapons and ammunition to the guerrillas, the Japanese army will expand the sweep area to the southern part of the three eastern provinces in order to cut off the anti-Japanese guerrillas' logistical supply and foreign aid channels. If the Japanese really dare to take action in the southern part of the three eastern provinces, then the central government of our country will inevitably actively respond to the war. The situation in the entire Northeast Asian region and even in the Far East as a whole will undergo drastic changes, and the US Government is worried that the Japanese Government's obstinate action will create a situation that will be difficult to control, so it has decided to make a gesture, and this joint military exercise is to make clear the US Government's stance. Tell the Japanese government not to think about any unilateral actions in China, the United States does not agree. Moreover, the British government is also on the side of the US government. ”

"I see. Then we have to send the American battleships quickly, time is short. Some time ago, I heard that military mobilization was already underway in Japan, preparing to solve the guerrilla zone in northern Korea in one fell swoop, but now, who knows what the Japanese army is trying to do? In case they come and attack the west and expand the situation in the three eastern provinces, it will not be good, and we will have to guard against the Japanese incident. Meng Fei was stunned.

"Of course. I have ordered Wu Luzhen to lead a staff group out of the customs and go to Shenyang, he had previously seriously inspected the three eastern provinces, and he was very familiar with them, so I appointed him as the "general border affairs office of the three eastern provinces" just to show the Japanese, and the Japanese did not move. If you dare to move, our squadron will also be ready for battle. It has been a year since the promulgation and implementation of the "Military Service Law," and the run-in period has passed, and now if a nationwide mobilization is carried out, there will be no problem in gathering an army of 1 million in a short period of time, and with the addition of the Revolutionary Guards and the militia of the Hoe Society, it will be more than enough for us to gather 1.5 million troops. Of course, now the financial situation is tight, "the four industrial exhibition plans have not been completed, our industrial strength is really limited, if we really want to fight, our heavy weapons are still not enough, so it depends on your aviation, the conservatives of the Japanese military are strong, and now the aviation strength of the Japanese army is not as good as our country, this is where our advantage lies, the reason why I have cultivated so many aviation talents in two years, it is precisely this reason, this battle is not fought, once it starts." That is unprecedentedly tragic, so your aviation base must step up the training of aviation personnel. ”

"Rest assured, Commander-in-Chief. As long as there are sufficient funds, aviation reserve personnel are not a small problem, and the key is aircraft; at present, our aviation units of the Sixth Army have a total of more than 200 aircraft of various types, and many of them are outdated products. It cannot be used in combat, and as for the remaining aircraft, due to the complexity of the models and the large difference in performance, it is too difficult to cooperate with the operation.

Small. Meng Fei put forward the conditions at the right time.

"As for the issue of airplanes, I can't do anything about it, at most, I will help you transfer some new planes from the navy. But in this case, I'm afraid that Mr. Tang will have to pick on me again. "Tang Xiangming? That man was too selfish. Obviously, their Admiralty valued battleships and cruisers, and degraded planes to nothing, but they refused to regard them as "waste." Those HNA planes were allocated to the 6 Army Air Force, purely to occupy the pit and not. If Tang Xiangming submits his resignation again this time, the ministry suggests that the commander-in-chief simply push the boat down the river, kick him away, and replace him with an obedient person to become the chief of the navy, and in the future, no one will make noise in the ears of the commander-in-chief

"Xiao Han, it would be nice if things were so simple. After all, I am the head of this country, and I have to think it through. The navy is not like the 6th Army, a group of officers who came out of the school led a group of stupid soldiers, that is the troops, this navy is a technical service, not worse than your aviation troops, the 6th Army can make personnel adjustments as it likes, but the navy is not good, the mountains in the navy are much more difficult to deal with than the mountains in the 6th Army, until now, I have not completely settled the "Fujian system, what." Although Tang Xiangming is often petty, after all, he has prestige in the navy, and I can rest assured that he is in charge of the navy, otherwise the small navy will not be united

Zhao Bei was bitter. Meng Fei didn't listen to it much, after all, he was not very interested in politics, and he was also a complete layman when it came to political skills, so what the president said and what he should do was the president's own business, and as a senior officer of the aviation force, Meng Fei's mind now turned to how to select the top pilots to conduct military confrontation exercises with the German air force.

To strengthen national defense, we can't rely on those low-eyed navies, but we also have to rely on this down-to-earth aviation!
