Chapter 518: Reception Reception

Following

When Jiang Hao got up to have breakfast with the team members, he saw a newspaper on the table, and the headline was a report on yesterday's air battle.

Yesterday's great victory can be said to be the biggest victory in the air war against Japan since the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan.

An editorial was published on the front page of the JoongAng Daily,

"Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the ground forces of the National Revolutionary Army have waged a stubborn battle against the aggression of the Japanese army. On 6 April, a formation of 57 Japanese bombers flew to the mountain city again to bomb the capital. ”

"In this battle, 35 Japanese fighters and 22 bombers were shot down, and all the invading enemy planes were annihilated, and an unprecedented victory was achieved, which greatly encouraged the military and the people's will to persist in the War of Resistance in the face of difficulties, and stimulated the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the military and people throughout the country."

"In the air battle, the pilots of China, the United States, and the Soviet Union fought tenaciously and fought to the death with the Japanese enemy planes in the sky.

"Our air force soldiers, fight to catch up, catch up with the fleeing Japanese fighters, shoot them down one by one in the air, the whole process of all the people in the mountain city as witness, it can really be described as a great joy, this is since the battle of Songhu, Nanjing, Wuhan, our air force is another major victory, the great destruction of the Japanese army, the spirit of the people of the great growth of the country......"

The text is very passionate, but in Jiang Hao's opinion, it has the taste of putting gold on his face.

Forget it, now the Chinese people need to mention the momentum, so let the Kuomintang get some cheapness.

However, Jiang Hao and his "Silver Dragon Team" are also famous in China.

After breakfast, Jiang Hao led the team members to check the situation of the plane, replenish fuel and ammunition, and after an air battle, the bullets were almost consumed, but fortunately, these bullets were all general-purpose bullets, and the air base of the national army could provide them.

Several planes were slightly injured, and the most serious one was half of the fuselage destroyed by the Japanese army, but the performance of the Mustang was very good, and the protection measures were much stronger than the old Japanese fighters, and the fighter pilots were not injured.

Not long after, Air Force Commander Zhou Zhirou came over again, talked with Jiang Hao, looked at the silver Mustang fighters, Zhou Zhirou sighed, "What a good plane, I saw it on the ground in yesterday's air battle, your Mustang plane, flying fast, flexible, small turning radius, strong maneuverability, those Japanese fighters in front of them, only the abused vegetables." ”

"By the way, how much is this kind of fighter, it should be very expensive." Zhou Zhirou asked.

"The ex-factory price is $58,000 a plane." Jiang Hao said.

Zhou Zhirou's expression froze, and she muttered, "58,000, 58,000, the Hawker 2, Hawker 3, Boeing 281, 248, and P-26 we bought before are also worth more than 100,000 dollars, and this is only 58,000." ”

At the end, Zhou Zhirou's lips trembled a little, and finally sighed silently, with a little sadness in her eyes.

Jiang Hao knew what Lao Zhou meant, when buying an airplane, he might not need so much, but he couldn't stop someone from scraping oil and water, layer by layer, it was not uncommon for an airplane to mention two or three times the original price.

Zhou Zhirou eased for a moment, looked at Jiang Hao and said, "Mr. Jiang, tonight at the Boya Hotel, there is a celebration party for Mr. Jiang and all the members of the Silver Dragon Clan, and I will come to pick you up when the time comes." ”

Jiang Hao nodded and said he understood.

Zhou Zhirou glanced at the Mustang planes again, turned around and left.

......

The Japanese aircraft group was annihilated, the Japanese base camp was shaken, and an investigation was immediately organized, at this time, there were a large number of Japanese spies in the mountain city, Jiang Hao's deeds were published in the newspapers, and they said it clearly, and the Japanese immediately grasped all the situation.

"Baga, did the Americans participate in the war, shouldn't it be like this, immediately wire money to the country, ask the US embassy about the situation, why the US fighter plane appeared in China."

Shiro Maeda, vice minister of foreign affairs, immediately drove to the US Embassy to question him, and met with Jensen, the US ambassador to Japan at the time.

Shiro Maeda asked in a serious tone: "Ambassador Jensen, why did the American plane appear in China and shoot down our country's war-fighting plane, does the United States want to tear up the peace treaty with us and participate in the war with China?" ”

Jensen looked confused, "No, I don't know about it." ”

Shiro Maeda informed Jensen of the whole thing, and Jensen knew the names of Jiang Hao and the "Silver Dragon Team", and immediately telegraphed to the US State Department, and within a short time, the US State Department sent a reply.

Jensen breathed a sigh of relief after reading it, it's good that it's not war.

"Maeda-kun, the Jiang Hao you mentioned is just a mercenary company, and his behavior this time is completely personal and does not represent the political intentions of the United States."

Shiro Maeda was still in a good mood, "But the United States sold him the latest fighter jet, which made our losses very large." ”

Jensen spread his hands, "The information sent from China says that the plane was developed and built by himself, and it is also a personal act, and we in the United States are a free economy and society and have no right to interfere." ”

"But why did you let him fly the plane to China!" Shiro Maeda asked in an atmospheric manner.

"Mercenaries, naturally, they will go wherever there is fighting, or how to make money, I think you may be able to try to impress the other party with the economy, maybe he will leave China." Jensen stumbled.

The situation was fed back to the Japanese base camp, and the Japanese army was very angry and dissatisfied with such an answer, but they had nothing to do with the United States, and finally made a decision.

Send the most elite spies to assassinate Jiang Hao.

At this time, Jiang Hao was still at the airport, holding a map to study, not knowing that the Japanese had listed him as an assassination target.

......

In the evening, Zhou Zhirou specially sent a car to pick up Jiang Hao and a group of foreigners from the Silver Dragon team, and when he walked into the Boya Hotel, Jiang Hao felt a delicate and elegant atmosphere.

Someone led the way in front, the door opened, Jiang Hao saw that there were already many people standing in the banquet hall, the hall was brightly lit, the soft piano sound came out like flowing water, the men were all in suits and leather shoes, oily hair and powder, and the women were wearing colorful cheongsams, showing off their figures.

The receptionist stood on the steps and shouted, "All the battle heroes of the "Silver Dragon Clan"! ”

This roar immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the banquet hall, and the movements of the people were in unison, looking at the door, Jiang Hao was standing at the front, and behind him was a group of blonde foreigners.
