837. Borrowing and raising money
Bai Shujie also wanted to plunge headlong into Jiufengshan Airport, and then calm down to study the FLH37 heavy bomber. It was the world's first full-fledged heavy bomber, and it influenced the world for more than two decades.
It is on the basis of the continuous improvement of this bomber that Boeing has established its strategic position as the world's number one airline.
It's a pity that there are too many things, and Bai Shujie's idea of wanting to be a "graduate student" can only be a dream and fantasy.
Al Capone and his men were down, and there were only 278 men. Now I live in Unit B of the Heiling Villa Area, on a mountain beam more than 10 miles southeast of the main peak of Heiling. Unit A of the business district is at the top of the hill, where ordinary people are not allowed to enter.
Accompanied by Zhang Jingfu, he called Ge Yougui, deputy commander of the Shanghai detachment, and Bai Shujie personally drove to Unit B. He also wanted to see who the legendary "mafia godfather" was.
The result is nothing unusual, that is, a guy with big ears and thick eyebrows, who looks to be in his forties, and looks like he is seven or eight meters tall. Half a head higher than Bai Shujie, this is where he is very dissatisfied.
When the master needs some energy, isn't it, drinking dry vinegar is too much, so Bai Shujie took two steps forward with a smile and stretched out his right hand: "Mr. Capone, welcome to this beautiful island!" How's it going, is the rest okay? ”
Today's translator is none other than a little girl from the telecommunications office, with a London accent when she speaks. Bai Shujie said in his heart, this little girl came back from studying in Europe!
"Commander-in-chief, I've heard of the great name for a long time, and I finally saw you in person today!" Capone also smiled and said, "Your troops are so powerful, much more powerful than the American Marines I've seen!" Through this voyage, I realized how big the world really is, and I really hope to go out on the sea as much as possible. ”
Bai Shujie nodded: "Mr. Capone, when we came to visit today, we also had a main purpose, which was your next arrangement. Guam and Bansai are already in your hands, but you can't stay here long because you have to guard against the Japanese counterattack. ”
"Secondly, for your two future warships, I have already specially refitted them before you come over. In the days to come, your brothers will have to familiarize themselves with these two ships. For this reason, I invited Deputy Commander Ge of the fleet to come over, hoping that you will have more exchanges in the future. ”
"Mr. Capone, let's make a long story short." Ge Yougui said: "Your brothers must go to the warship for training, and they need to complete the training of marine engine operation, communication technology, radar technology, sonar operation, weapon system training, management and damage maintenance, pilot navigation training, and so on. Otherwise, you won't be able to drive away, and you won't be able to go into battle. ”
Capone said with a smile: "We left our hometown and came to the Far East to study. Mr. Commander, everything is done according to your requirements. ”
"Mr. Capone, I have a plan for the next activity area." Bai Shujie spread out a nautical chart: "Please see, here is our Taiwan Province, here is the Penghu Islands, here is fishing. Fish. Island and Akao Island, here is Okinawa. These places are islands of our country, but they are occupied by the Japanese. ”
"However, the Japanese don't have that many troops, and fishing . . Fish. There are many islands here, but they are not large and not suitable for a large number of people, so there are no people on the islands here, and it is a good sea guerrilla battlefield. As for Guam and Bansai Island, they can be used as your supply bases. ”
"Look here, there is a garrison headquarters of little devils and little devils in Taiwan, which has jurisdiction over the Taipei Garrison Brigade, the Taichung Garrison Brigade and the Tainan Garrison Brigade, with a total of more than 30,000 people in six wings. In addition, there is a fortress headquarters, which has the Keelung Fortress Brigade and the Magong Heavy Artillery Brigade under its jurisdiction. ”
"From the current point of view, when you are just starting out, it is best to avoid the island of Taiwan. Rather, it was to ambush Japanese merchant ships in the Taiwan Strait. You see, I have brought you three flags, which are the national flag of the Japanese, the flag of the army, and the flag of the navy. As long as it is a fleet flying these three flags, it is your target. ”
"Akao Island, fishing. Fish. The island is 900 nautical miles, or 1,600 kilometers, from us, and it takes three hours for my fighters to rush in for reinforcements. Therefore, if something unexpected happens in the future, be sure to send us a telegram in advance. When your training is over, Deputy Commander Ge will report the radio frequency to your operator. ”
"Mr. Capone, what little Japan looted from South Asia was rubber, oil, grain, steel, or gold, silver, and jewelry. Once you have succeeded, you must retreat quickly. At first, try not to go head-to-head with the Japanese navy. ”
"On each of the two battleships, I will equip you with a 15-ton speedboat, armed with a twin heavy machine gun and a recoilless gun. The commanders of these weapons will send people to train you. When your radar spotted the fleet, hide the destroyers and send two speedboats to reconnoiter the situation. ”
"Anyway, no one cares about that place, as long as you don't move the American and Chinese things, it's absolutely fine! I have every reason to believe that Mr. Capone will be the underground mayor of Chicago within a year, and the king of the East and South China Seas within a year! Come, cheers to your success! ”
Capone hurriedly waved his hand: "Wait! Mr. Commander-in-Chief, there's no way I'm going to get a bunch of supplies and go back to the United States. The mysterious East is your territory, how to trade nearby, do you have any good builds? ”
"Haha, that's right!" Bai Shujie smiled and said: "As long as it is Japanese materials, including cargo ships, I can buy them." You don't have to worry about the price, you won't lose out. ”
"The most important thing is, when you are familiar with the mode of warfare at sea, do you see it? Shiheng Island to the east of Taiwan Island is also our territory, and you will capture it when the time comes. ”
"Then from the southern tip of the island of Taiwan, around the South China Sea, the scope here is very large. All the way to the west, see no, this island is called Hainan Island. The two places in the east are called Wenchang in the north and Qiongya in the south, where guerrillas and Japanese fighters fought. ”
"That unit of theirs is called the Qiongya Column, and it is poor and cannot afford to pay. Give them the weapons, medicines, and food you have captured from Japan. As long as they have a receipt, I'll give you the money. When the time comes, I will write you a letter and find their commander, Wang Zuoyao, and then it will be fine. ”
"If you need reinforcements, I will not sit idly by, and I will definitely send a group of forces to rescue you. The most important thing is not to lightly expose our relationship, lest little Japan find out in advance. If then, the Japanese choke our passage, and it is possible that the rescue will not be timely and lead to losses. ”
"There are a lot of people on the islands in the East China Sea and the South China Sea who want to fight the Japanese, so you can slowly develop your team. But don't worry, as long as you can develop in the East China Sea and the South China Sea for three years, I guarantee that you will become heroes of the whole world, and you are also recognized by all governments! ”
Dealing with Capone's problem is just a small episode, and it can be regarded as Bai Shujie has always advocated: "Plant flowers for yourself and thorns for little devils." ”
This time, it is just a continuation of this guiding ideology, and it is also a strategy.
It is still unknown how far Capone and the others can develop, and how much trouble they can cause to the little devils.
In any case, what is harmful to the enemy and beneficial to oneself, no matter how big or small the effect is, then you should do your best.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and the National War of Resistance pays attention to this.
Even if Al Capone only kills one little devil, then there will be one less little devil in this world, and there will definitely not be one more.
According to Bai Shujie's algorithm, if someone else kills a little devil and he doesn't contribute, it is equivalent to killing a lot of little devils. Because I have accumulated strength, I can make a big one at the most critical time.
Shifting the attention of the little devils to the Taiwan Strait will definitely be of great help to their own management of the Korean Peninsula and to continuously improve their core combat effectiveness.
Misfortune leads to the east, these are all things that the Chinese ancestors don't want, and Bai Shujie will naturally not forget it.
Let the vicinity of Taiwan Island be unstable, cut off the last lifeline of the little devil, and the little devil will speed up the pace of going south.
As long as the claws of the little devils extend to South Asia, the days when Americans want to stay out of the situation and make black money will not be long.
Americans always want to pay for themselves and let others die for themselves, Bai Shujie understands this truth. However, in order to completely destroy the little devil, even if no one pays for it, Bai Shujie will not hesitate to die.
Now, as long as the Americans are involved, and then he is willing to work hard, Bai Shujie thinks that the room for bargaining with the Americans will gradually be revealed.
Of course, if the little devil wants to go south, it will also be difficult. Hubei, Hunan, and Guangxi are not so neat. The little devil doesn't leave 100,000 lives, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to get by.
Therefore, taking advantage of the little devil's competition with the Soviet Union in the north, and at the same time full of yellow mud in the yellow pan area, Bai Shujie finally ushered in a short period of calm, if he didn't seize this opportunity, don't think about it in the future.
The fleet brought back 6 heavy bombers, which was just a small thing, at least Bai Shujie thought so.
The two Atlanta-class cruisers are both with a standard displacement of 11,500 tons and a full load displacement of 14,300 tons.
6 Somers-class destroyers, the Americans are good, the double bridges are more solid than the little devils, and the armor is passable. This is a brand new thing, and Bai Shujie has not left it untouched until it has been tested by the Great War. The speed of 38.5 knots is more than enough to cope.
Although the 2 Muzuki-class destroyers are in very new condition, the deck has been blown up in a mess, and the decayed bridge has been completely deformed, so it needs to be completely renovated.
4 single-mounted three-year 120 mm L/45 guns, 2 single 7.7 mm machine guns, all thrown down. Including the newly refitted, triple 12-year-old 610 mm ×2, with 6 eight-year torpedoes; 16 mines No. 1. It not only occupies space, but also increases weight, it is not easy to use, Bai Shujie resolutely does not want it.
The weapon system and radar system are all unified with the Chunfeng:
1 twin DW203mm main gun with a firing range of 40 km, turret weight 560 tons, and a rate of fire of 22 rounds per minute; 2 twin-mounted DW88mm high-level dual-purpose guns: 10 km at an altitude of 10 km, 15 km at a flat rate, and a rate of fire of 22-25 rounds per min; 4 five-barreled DW30mm phalanx, with a combat rate of fire of 300 rounds per minute, a range of 3600 meters, and a magazine of 1080 rounds; 12 depth charges.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
