After Director Wu of the Military Intelligence Bureau left helplessly with Mi Rong on a mission to find uranium for China's porcelain industry, Natalie, Secretary General of the General Staff, sent Yaoguo's schedule for the next day.

Luo Yaoguo pressed his eyebrows a little tiredly, and said to Natalie: "Put it down, have you made an appointment with people on both sides?" ”

Natalie twisted her eyebrows and replied: "It's all agreed, Chiang Kai-shek's representative is General He Jingzhi, he took a boat back to Wuhan this afternoon, and he will be able to meet you tomorrow afternoon." Hu Hanmin's representative is Secretary General Hu Yisheng, who is now in Wuhan, and he will have dinner with him tonight.

"Has Mr. Tetsusen arrived?" Luo Yaoguo asked with squinted eyes.

Natalie replied, "Minister Sun is waiting outside to see you, he has just returned from Shanghai, he has inspected our Republic Aircraft Company in Shanghai, and he has also seen the F3 series of fighters. ”

Luo Yaoguo nodded: "Please Mr. Zhesheng come in, and Mr. Zhesheng will also be invited to attend tonight's meeting with Hu Yisheng, he is the eldest son of Mr. Don, and his words always have a bit of weight." ”

Natalie nodded in agreement and left, and then she heard footsteps and Beko swaggered in. Luo Yaoguo hurriedly walked out from behind the desk, took the hand of the other eldest prince and sat on the sofa together, and ordered Natalie to serve *coffee. Sun Ke glanced at Luo Yaoguo, who was obviously a little overly attentive, and said with a smile: "Brother Wen, this time in Europe can be described as a rich harvest, right?"

Did you get any secret weapon from Hitler's president? ”

Luo Yaoguo pretended to smile mysteriously: "Let Mr. Zhesheng guess correctly!" There's a great secret weapon, but it's not fully developed yet, and we're going to get involved. As he spoke, he took out a draft plan and handed it to Sun Ke: "However, the manufacturing cost of this weapon is very amazing, and the requirements for the industrial base are also very high. So in order to be able to start manufacturing this weapon in 10 years, we now need to speed up the construction of industrial infrastructure in the western region, first of all, electricity, I want to build several very large thermal power plants near Lanzhou, Gansu, with a total installed capacity of about 1 million kilowatts: secondly, the secret factory is also built in Gansu, and now we need to build roads, level the land, build factories and supporting facilities, including living facilities that can accommodate at least 100,000 people. A special amount from the Ministry of Armaments is also required for the purchase of uranium ore and uranium oxide for storage...... In addition, the project, named Project U, should be included in the highest level of secrecy and, where appropriate, given the highest priority.

Luo Yaoguo casually put forward a lot of demands, and let the black line on the forehead of the other young master "messy", what is this, it is a 100 kilowatt power plant, a secret factory, and a living facility where 100,000 people live, how much does it cost? Is this weapon really that powerful?

"By the way, Brother Fuwen, what is that weapon you are talking about? Airplanes or artillery? After listening to it for a long time, Sun Ke found that he still didn't know what the so-called secret weapon was?

"It's a bomb! A particularly powerful bomb! Luo Yaoguo's eyes flashed, and he replied affirmatively: "Although this kind of bomb has not yet been developed, we must have it!" As long as we have this kind of bomb, we will have enough say in the world in the future! Otherwise, we won't be able to keep the world empire even if we have conquered it. ”

Sun Ke frowned and hesitated for a moment: "Fuwen, then this project seems to cost a lot of money, do you want to let the [Lord] ...... the group" Luo Yaoguo waved his hand: "For the time being, there is no need to tell them, the power plants and secret factories in Gansu are carried out in the name of electrolytic aluminum projects, and high-quality bauxite has not been found in Lanzhou?" Let's start building a power plant in this name, because the electricity produced by the power plant is also necessary for the production of electrolytic aluminum. As for the funding, Mr. Tetsusheng don't worry, the Ministry of Armaments has done a good job of the project of the power plant, and I will find a way to get it passed. ”

What Luo Yaoguo wants to do now is, of course, a criminal nuclear weapon! However, since the phenomenon of nuclear fission has not yet been discovered, and even uranium-235, which is used to make nuclear weapons, has not been discovered, at least Aunt Zemeitner has not heard of such a thing. In his previous life, Luo Yaoguo was just a pilot, not a nuclear physicist, and his understanding of nuclear weapons was very limited. It is only known that highly enriched uranium-235 is needed as a "drug", and refining this uranium-235 requires a fairly strong industrial base. Considering that the relatively energy-efficient high-speed gas centrifuge is in the 20

It was only manufactured in the 60s, so the only way to enrich uranium is the energy-intensive gas separation method that is currently possible. Historically, the United States has spent 10% of the country's electricity generation to refine enriched uranium, which means that more than 20 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity are needed every year! It is almost equal to the total amount of electricity generated in China in a year! To produce this electricity, the capacity of thermal power plant assembly is about 3 million kilowatts.

What Luo Yaoguo needs to do now is to start construction of a large-scale thermal power base with a total installed capacity of 1 million kilowatts in Lanzhou, which will be used to supply electricity for the "U Project". Of course, China's "U Project" is different from the "Manhattan" project in the United States in history, and it is not a wartime project that rushes to meet the schedule regardless of cost, so the demand for electricity will also be greatly reduced. With 10 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity supplied every year, Huā should be able to accumulate enough weapons-grade enriched uranium in the time it takes for the Manhattan Project.

However, if we want to build an atomic bomb in China, which is backward in science and technology, we must cooperate with the other people...... This is also the reason why Luo Yaoguo invited Zemetner to China, after all, before the emergence of nuclear fission theory, no one knew what uranium-235 was for...... Therefore, after the discovery of uranium-235, China will obtain machinery and equipment for refining uranium-235 from the United States and Germany through "international cooperation" or "trade"! Historically, there has been a four-year gap between the discovery of uranium-235 and uranium-235 and the discovery of nuclear fission, and if this time can be extended by another one to two years, it is entirely possible for China to get a full set of uranium enrichment technology and equipment from the United States and Germany! Of course, that would also speed up the development of the atomic bomb in these two countries!

"There is another thing, the Military Intelligence Bureau heard a top-secret information from the Japanese government." Luo Yaoguo took a map and spread it out on the coffee table in front of him, and found that it was a military map of the Northeast region of 1/200,000, and the map was circled with red lines in the lake basin area east of Qiqihar, Luo Yaoguo pointed to the area in the red line: "I have found oil here!" It is estimated that the reserves are not low, which is one of the reasons why they want to launch the 9.18 War to fight for the Northeast. I would like to ask the Ministry of Armaments to organize a group of German and American experts to explore the entire area. ”

Hearing the oil, Sun Ke couldn't help but sigh softly: "Alas, the international oil prices have fallen during this time. I don't know if this oil field has any development value? ”

Luo Yaoguo just smiled and didn't answer Beko's words, he said lightly: "Mr. Zhesheng has a banquet in the Humble House tonight, I invite Mr. Suizhai, and I want to invite you to enjoy the light." ”

Beko nodded slightly, sighed inaudibly, and finally strode out without saying a word. What is the matter at tonight's gathering, Luo Yaoguo doesn't say that he also knows a rough idea, the atrocities of the Northwest Youth Army are indeed outrageous. However, some people in the party use this as an excuse to attack Luo Yaoguo, which is also a villain. Now that the Kuomintang has just sat down, these people are impatient to jump out and fight among themselves, which is really chilling...... I hope I can help the two families say something tonight and give things to me.

After meeting with Beko, Luo Yaoguo finished his day's work and returned to Beilu's home on the shore of East Lake. As soon as he walked into the hall, he saw that Luo Yiqun was already waiting for him there.

"Fuwen, did you ask Hu Suizhai (Hu Yisheng) to have dinner at home to negotiate conditions with Hu Zhantang?" Luo Yiqun asked when he met.

Luo Yaoguo nodded: "That's right, now it is Hu Zhantang and Chiang Kai-shek who are joining forces to suppress us, if we don't find a way to break up their alliance, we will be very passive." So the nephew wanted to invite Mr. Hu Suizhai to his home for dinner and talk to him, and at the same time, he also invited Mr. Bei Zhesheng to be a peacemaker. ”

Luo Yiqun's god was still grim: "Fuwen, then you plan to join forces with Hu Zhantang?" So what benefits are you going to give them? ”

How to deal with the current situation, he is naturally already in Xiong. He plans to let his uncle Luo Yiqun give up the position of Executive Dean to Hu Yisheng! He was reappointed as the deputy chairman of the national "government" and let Xu Chongzhi become the president of the Legislative Council. can let his cousin get the Executive Yuan Hu Hanmin will not refuse no matter what, so that Luo Yaoguo can form an alliance with Hu Hanmin and continue to suppress his biggest opponent Chiang Kai-shek in the army and the party! And there is an unknown layout behind this seemingly significant concession. In history, this Hu Hanmin died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1936! And Luo Yaoguo planned to put Hu Hanmin on the throne of president before this, let his uncle be a brother president who didn't have much real power, and when Hu Hanmin hung up, he could naturally take over as president! When the time comes, with an uncle of the president, Luo Yaoguo will be able to suppress Chiang Kai-shek to the death, and he can also achieve the goal of grasping power by "manipulating" the Luo wing group, which is very necessary for China to participate in World War II in the future. Is it just that at the moment, this honest uncle is willing to give up the powerful Executive Yuan and surrender to a national "government" brother who has little power?

Seeing that his nephew was a little dazed, Luo Yiqun couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Catch Wen, there are some things that can't be avoided, and there is no way to break up the alliance between Hu Hanyi and Chiang Kai-shek without paying something." ”

"Uncle, if only you could think like that." Luo Yaoguo took a deep breath, looking at his tired uncle, it seemed that he was also under a lot of pressure during this time, but he was afraid that he couldn't sleep at night, right?

Perhaps a stupid Lord, or President Ray, who doesn't care about everything, is the most suitable person for him.

"What benefits are you going to give away? I heard Song Ziwen say today that Chiang Kai-shek is very impressed with your intelligence bureau. Luo Yiqun asked again.

"I want you to be appointed as the chairman of the national 'government', and ask Xu Rugong to be the president of the Legislative Council, and give up the post of president of the Executive Yuan to Hu Suizhai." Luo Yaoguo said the established strategy lightly: "Hu Suizhai is Hu Zhantang's confidant and cousin, and letting him be the premier is equivalent to Hu Da's "Lord" pro-government, it's over!" Such youhuo, he must be difficult to resist! ”

"What? Surrender the Executive Yuan? Luo Yiqun stood up abruptly and stared at his nephew with an expression of disbelief: "Chiang Kai-shek just wants an intelligence bureau, do we need to give Hu Hanmin the Executive Yuan?" ”

"There is a need." Luo Yaoguo said coldly and calmly: "Uncle, compared to Hu Hanmin, Chiang Kai-shek is really much more dangerous, if he is allowed to get the Military Intelligence Bureau, who knows what he will do?" You know, the MIA is a lawless department...... Hu Hanmin is different, he is just an outdated politician, and no matter how he is, it is difficult to make any big achievements. And Xu Chongzhi has been out of the military for many years, and he is just an empty title of the leader of the Cantonese family. Their faction has won the Executive Yuan, and it is difficult to compete with us or Chiang Kai-shek. Moreover, those Whampoa officers may defect to Chiang Kai-shek, but they will never go to Hu Hanmin, and if Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi want to extend their hands to the military circles, they will inevitably reuse the old people with Cantonese noses, so that the Whampoa department will only dislike them, but will not take refuge in them, and besides, with Hu Hanmin's arrogant Xingge and Xu Chongzhi's big smoker, who would be so stupid to take refuge in them. Now that we have formed an alliance with Hu Hanmin, it will definitely be unfavorable to Chiang Kai-shek in the future, and those people have no reason to defect to Chiang Kai-shek, so our position can be completely stabilized. As for Hu Hanmin, I still plan to praise him as president! Let's let him enjoy it again. ”

"Let Hu Zhantang be president!?" Luo Yiqun nodded slightly: "Of course, Hu Hanmin can't ask for it, but will the independence of the military be affected again?" This president should be the titular commander-in-chief of the armed forces, right? ”

"Probably right? At that time, Chiang Kai-shek, chairman of the Military Commission, will be devalued. Luo Yaoguo smiled coldly: "Another point, Hu Zhantang's president is not a day or two to become the president. There is also the process of going through legislation and elections, of course, it is the Legislative Yuan to create it instead of universal suffrage... This process will always take a year or two, during this time, Hu Zhantang is inseparable from our support, and when he becomes the president of the Republic of China for 23 years, 24 years. With this period of time, our foundation can be much more stable......" What Luo Yaoguo did not say was that Hu Hanmin had arrived in the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1936, it was almost time to go to see Zhongshan. Isn't his presidential throne hot for Luo Yiqun? As for Hu Yisheng's executive dean, didn't he take it out whenever he wanted?

Although Luo Yiqun was slightly reluctant, he still decided to accept this arrangement. His premier and the vice chairman of the Kuomintang actually relied on the power of Luo Yaoguo to sit firmly, otherwise he would have been an honest man with no fox family, and Hu Hanmin and Chiang Kai-shek would have been resigned a long time ago. Now, since his nephew Luo Yaoguo listed Chiang Kai-shek as his number one competitor, it must also make sense.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "Okay, I can let the Executive Yuan out, but the Executive Yuan can't all be handed over to Hu Hanmin's people, this Executive Yuan is also a key department, we must control at least half of it, so that Hu Yisheng will not dare to oppose us if he wants to sit firmly in the position of the president." ”

"Uncle, do you have any good arrangements?" Luo Yaoguo asked rhetorically.

"The Executive Yuan now has 12 ministries, including foreign affairs, finance, national education and publicity, policing, construction, transportation, energy, industry, commerce, justice, agriculture, and health, as well as two subsidiary organs, namely the Secretariat and the Comptroller's Office." Luo Yiqun folded his fingers and calculated, and said: "Now Foreign Minister Wang Zhaoming, Minister of Construction Shi Yuqing (Shi Ying), Minister of Justice Zhang Junli, Minister of Police Ju Juesheng (Ju Zheng), and Minister of Energy Ma Junwu are all close to us, and we must find a way to keep them." ”

"I'm afraid that the police department will be difficult to keep, Hu Zhantang doesn't have a gun in his hand, and it's good to have a few police inspectors." Luo Yaoguo pondered and said: "We can propose that Mr. Ju Juesheng be the [Lord] seat of Hubei Province, he is a native of Guangji, Hubei Province, and it is very suitable to serve as the [Lord] seat of his hometown Hubei Province." ”

"Hubei Province [Chief] ...... What about He Xuezhu? He's Chiang Kai-shek......"

"Then it depends on what Chiang Kai-shek has to arrange?" Luo Yaoguo said coldly.

"Alas, the misunderstanding between you and Chiang Kai-shek will deepen again." Luo Yiqun shook his head and said, "He Xuezhu also has to have proper arrangements, you should find him a position in the army." It's really not good, it's good to give a security commander-in-chief, and everyone can see each other in the future. He thought for a moment, and then asked: "By the way, Fuwen, how do you want to end the matter between the Chinese G and the Youth Army this time?" ”

Thinking of these two troubles, Luo Yaoguo's face suddenly sank again. In the final analysis, these two parties caused the trouble. Zhong G stubbornly clings to the judicial power and legislative power and refuses to give in, and most of the fire that burned the youth army was also set by them! And the Youth Army also did so many bad things and didn't know how to destroy the evidence, and as a result, it was even exposed, and even the good reputation of the Kuomintang was discounted a little.

"These two aspects also need to be hammered." Luo Yaoguo snorted coldly: "The Gansu Provincial [Lord] seat and the security commander are taken away and replaced with our people, which can be regarded as a warning to Wang Junhao, and his hands and feet should be cleaner in the future." As for GCD...... If they go any further, then they will have to fight! ”

"It's really going to be a deadline" Luo Yiqun shook his head slightly, and didn't seem to agree: "The country has finally settled down, and they have also recognized the national 'government', we can slowly solve the problem through negotiations, whether we can fight or not." ”

…… Hmph, if you don't fight, you can't do it, this fire in the northwest this time has burned us a lot, if we don't fight, what should we use to divert our attention? Luo Yaoguo was unmoved, he seemed to have made up his mind to fight, he glanced at Luo Yiqun, and then continued: "Don't worry, I believe that as long as you put on a posture of sending troops, they will give in."
