"Okay, Mr. Gan Fu, I think you are also a hard-hearted guy, so I give you this appointment. You come to be the captain of the first special attack brigade! The first special attack brigade is composed of two special attack teams. The formation of the squadron will be attached to the aircraft carrier Akagi. As for what is so special about this special attack group, you should be clear, right? Do you have any thoughts on the composition of this special attack force?"

"Yes, admiral, I have a little immature idea..." Kanfu Kengoro glanced at the letter of commission on the table. This job is indeed not a good one. Willing to do it, but Gan Fu is an exception.I don't know what's going on, but as long as we think of commanding the Japanese to fly a suicide plane to hit an American warship, our liver, Kengoro Fuki, gets all excited!But on the surface, Gan Fu still had to put on a bit of reluctance, frowned, and said slowly:

"The special attack force should be composed of two types of aircraft. One is a special aircraft responsible for carrying out special attack missions. When performing special attack missions, each special attack aircraft must be loaded with at least 250 kilograms of explosives. The position only carries one-way fuel. This kind of aircraft should be driven by a special attack team member. The special attack team member will not carry any skydiving equipment. In short, it must be put to death! Give them a half-month relaxation period, the most beautiful comfort women, the most exquisite food, and various medals and honors..."

"In addition to the special attack aircraft, the special attack team should also be equipped with some fighters, preferably two-seat fighters specially modified with Bf-109T. These fighters will be piloted by the squadron leaders of each special attack squadron and a camera operator. The captain is in charge of commanding the special attack aircraft to launch an assault, while the cameraman is responsible for filming the scene of the assault to determine the outcome of the attack, and at the same time, these materials can be used for research, and can also be made into a promotional video to inspire the fighting spirit of the people!"

Of course, these expansion packs will also be collected by Gan Fukengoro!When the war is over in the future, you can take it out every night to have a look... The Japanese and the Americans will die together!For Gan Fu, uh, it should be for Jin Chengzhu, is there a better picture than this?

"The squadron leaders who drive the Bf-109 are still in charge of supervising the battle?" Yamamoto frowned and stared at Ganfu, and said in a low voice: "Lieutenant Ganfu, do you really think that the warriors of the empire need to be suppressed with machine guns to muster the courage to drive?" Is the plane going to die with the enemy?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, General! I believe that proper supervision is absolutely necessary." Gan Fu's mouth showed a cruel smile. "The job also believes that in order to ensure the source of the kamikaze team members, the Naval Aviation Headquarters should issue indicators to the flight training schools under its jurisdiction. And ask them to try their best to mobilize students with poor flying skills in the school to voluntarily sign up for the kamikaze team... This can greatly improve the efficiency of training special attack members, and it can also prevent some students with flying talents from becoming kamikaze special attack members."

A cold chill couldn't help climbing up Yamamoto 56's back, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and then he returned to his usual tone. "It's completely unreasonable. You can't say that to the outside world. If His Majesty the Emperor knows the truth, you will have to apologize. Well, that's the way it is."

Chapter 0817 I died for the king (two) secret meeting

The delegation of the Far Eastern Republic stayed in the East Asia Hotel in Shanghai for the past two days.This hotel can only be regarded as a second-rate hotel in the current Shanghai Bund. It is not as good as the International Hotel completed in 1934 and the Huamao Hotel opened in 1928. Of course, the price is also much cheaper.However, it is located in the bustling area of ​​Shanghai, the center of the British Concession in the past, and there are many entertainment items for eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling in the restaurant. Seldom come.Like this time, it is an unprecedented honor to receive the "king of a country".

The reason why Zhang Guotao and others stayed in this hotel is said to be because they have no money!Uh, after all, he is a communist, the majestic "king of a country" has no money to live in a better hotel!In contrast, the leading figures of the Kuomintang all own garden houses in this oriental magic capital, and it is indeed a judgment.

The Shanghai meeting in the past few days has been closed-door talks, but the representatives of China, Germany, and Japan are engaged in secret diplomacy in the French Club. Even the Russian Empress and Count Ciano of Italy have not participated, let alone Zhang Guotao, the chairman of the Far Eastern Republic. ?

And this morning, Liu Shaoqi, who is also the chairman of the China Federation of Trade Unions (red), was invited by the comrades of the Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions (red) to give a report. Uncle Hu drank a few more glasses last night, and he is probably still alive Sleeping with head covered in his own room.And Zhang Guotao, Chairman Zhang, was also bored in every possible way, half leaning on his bed, closing his eyes and resting his mind helplessly.Originally, I wanted to take advantage of this trip to Shanghai to build a relationship with the top figures of the Nationalist Government.He feels that he is different from those comrades in China. He is already a leader of a foreign country, and it is impossible for him to participate in domestic elections and political struggles.It should also not interfere in China's internal affairs, but should lead the Far East Republic and China to establish a good-neighborly and friendly bilateral relationship.But to achieve this, it seems that there are many obstacles, especially the contact with the high-level national government does not seem to be so easy.

At this time, there was a light knock on the door, "Chairman Zhang, it's me." This was the voice of Huang Chao, Zhang Guotao's secretary.

Zhang Guotao greeted weakly: "What's the matter? Come in!"

The door creaked softly, and a young man in a woolen Chinese tunic came in, then closed the door, and said in a low voice, "Chairman, there is a man who claims to be your cousin asking to see you." A beautifully crafted greeting card.

"Cousin?" Zhang Guotao opened his eyes, and took a look at the greeting card from the other party. The name on it was Zhang Yunong, and he had never heard of it.However, the Zhang Guotao family is a big landlord in Pingxiang, Jiangxi, and there are many relatives in the family. Maybe there is such a person, or it may be... He turned over and sat up from the bed: "Xiao Huang, what does this person look like?"

"It's about 40 years old, a handsome man, well dressed, with a few subordinates, he came in a BMW-1937, he seems to be a respectable person."

"What?" Zhang Guotao was taken aback when he heard the words, and sat in BMW-1937!Zhang Guotao also owns a car of this kind (state-owned). This car consumes a lot of fuel. Now this kind of car is not something that anyone can sit in during the war. In all likelihood, some high-level figure of the Nationalist Government used a pseudonym to call himself Meet.

"Chairman Zhang," Secretary Huang Chao saw Zhang Guotao's strange expression, so he said again: "Do you think this person is a fake? I might as well let the guards drive them away."

"Oh! Zhang Yunong, uh, there is such a person, I remembered, he is my cousin, who is in big business." Zhang Guotao stood up abruptly, straightened his Chinese tunic suit, and said with a smile: "Go and give it to me." Calling for a banquet, for a private seat, this cousin and I haven’t seen each other for many years! We need to have a good get-together.”

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now." Huang Chao quietly retreated after accepting the task.Looking at the secretary's back, Zhang Guotao's eyebrows gradually twitched. This meeting was suspected of violating discipline. Although it was to better preserve the party's strength, but...

……

At this time, in the hero port of Terceira Island, thousands of miles away, the sky was the darkest before dawn, but the officer's room of the American heavy cruiser Augusta was still brightly lit.Cups of coffee were brought in by White House servants.In the meeting room, Cuban cigars were also lit one after another, and the smoke was lingering.Everyone was arguing loudly with their faces flushed.Roosevelt sat on his seat, talking to Chamberlain and Daladier in a low voice, quickly and urgently, and everyone looked extremely serious.

This space-time "Atlantic meeting" is not as easy as it was in history, at least President Roosevelt was full of anxiety.He has already made a principled concession on the issue of the "Atlantic Charter", no longer mentioning national liberation, but changing it to safeguarding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries.This is really a thunderbolt for the colonial peoples who are counting on Roosevelt and the United States to uphold justice!

The reason for making such a major concession is naturally that the war situation on the Pacific battlefield is critical, and the United States urgently needs the aircraft carriers provided by Britain and France to maintain the war situation.The consequences of losing Hawaii have now been manifested. From Alaska to Cape Horn, the entire west coast of America is under the command of the Japanese combined fleet!Especially after these damn Japanese got aid from China and Germany.

But what Roosevelt is most worried about now is the safety of the west coast of the United States.The Japanese Combined Fleet uses Pearl Harbor as its base camp, and the direct distance from there to the west coast of the United States is only a mere 2000 nautical miles!That is to say, if the combined Japanese fleet sails at a speed of 20 knots, it only takes 100 hours to reach the continental United States!Although the generals of the U.S. Navy and Army believed that it was unlikely that Japan would attack the west coast of the United States, the American people living on the west coast did not think so.San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles and other big cities on the west coast of the United States are in a state of turmoil these days.And the train from there to the middle of the United States is hard to find... For Roosevelt, who has made up his mind to seek a third term, it is now time for him to show the American people that he maintains national security and protects the people from enemies A moment of ravaged determination.

Even if the possibility of Japan invading the west coast of the United States is extremely low, in order to please the voters, he must not take it lightly!

Therefore, Roosevelt ignored the suggestions of his navy and army generals and proposed at today's meeting to deploy at least 6 of the 3 British and French aircraft carriers in San Diego, the new home of the US Pacific Fleet.In addition, three US aircraft carriers including USS Enterprise, USS Yorktown, and USS Hornet will also be deployed in San Diego to fully defend the west coast of the United States from the ravages of the enemy.

But the British side dismissed this.The British side believes that the focus of Japan's next stage of aggression must be Australia!Because there is what the Japanese most desire - living space!Also, the Japanese would definitely worry about the Chinese getting there first.As for the United States, the Japanese will at most carry out a reckless suicide attack!It is simply unrealistic to think about strategy.After all, the U.S. Army now has tens of 10 people. By the first quarter of 1939, at least one million American youths will be armed and receive a certain degree of military training.If the Japanese want to defeat them, they must invest at least an army of tens of 1 people!And to transport so many troops to the United States, at least 10 million tons of transportation capacity is required... almost accounting for more than 200% of Japan's shipping capacity.

Unless this group of short orientals are completely insane, disregarding their own economy and not planning to expand southward, and wholeheartedly come to find the United States and perish together, it is absolutely impossible for an attack of this scale to occur.

"But our intelligence personnel reported that the Japanese are hoarding supplies in Hawaii! On December 12th and 7th, three transport ships full of North Korean laborers arrived. In addition, the Chinese are transporting hundreds of No. 8 tanks to the In North Korea, a train full of German planes is now running on the Russian railway.” The speaker was Admiral Leahy, the chief of naval operations of the United States. be consistent.So the admiral pointed to the location of the west coast on the map on the table and said loudly: "There are indications that the Japanese are targeting the west coast! Otherwise, the Chinese and Germans would not have given them so many things for no reason." .”

"That's a harassing attack at best." The French Army General Gan Molin sitting next to him shook his head and explained in elegant French: "The purpose of Germany and China is to make Japan attract the attention of the United States. to reduce US aid to Europe! They will attack France at the same time as Japan launches an attack, and if France falls, China and Germany will almost control the entire Eurasian continent! Then Italy and Spain will also join the German side, and the whole of Africa and the Middle East will fall quickly...the whole world will be in disaster!"

"So, aiding France to secure the battlefields in Western Europe is the key to our victory in this war. The only way to defeat the Sino-German alliance is to attack Germany from France. As long as Germany is defeated, China and Japan will not last long. If Focusing on the Pacific battlefield, we must defeat the powerful navies of China and Japan, then land in Japan and China, and fight against a population of almost 1000 million! They can mobilize tens of millions of troops, and we have absolutely no way to Across the Pacific in support of operations of more than [-] million troops. Therefore, the war is not won by attacking from this direction."

"But we have to defend the West Coast. We must keep it no matter what!" Roosevelt sighed. "If the Japanese run wild there and then escape by boat, what will happen to the American people? They will ask the government to send every soldier Dedicated to the west coast until the Hawaiian Islands are recovered! And they won't allow a single bullet to go to Europe until then."

"Your Excellency, Australia is the most dangerous place, as you know." Chamberlain took a deep breath, "If we disassemble a total of 10 aircraft carriers, the result will be destroyed by the Japanese one by one. We should concentrate all the aircraft carriers in In the South Pacific, as long as the aircraft carriers of the Japanese Combined Fleet are wiped out, not only the crisis on the west coast of the United States can be resolved, but even the Hawaiian Islands can be retaken very quickly."

As soon as Chamberlain's words fell, President Roosevelt shook his head and said: "Mr. Prime Minister, I'm sorry, now we must give priority to the safety of the west coast. If the United Kingdom and France refuse to use aircraft carriers for the defense of the west coast of the United States, the United States can only use the original plan. Military material supplied to the European theater is used domestically."

Seeing Roosevelt's trump card, French Prime Minister Daladier immediately stated: "Our French Navy's three aircraft carriers, including the Bearn, Joffre, and Banlv, will belong to the command of the US Pacific Fleet."

Roosevelt nodded with satisfaction, and smiled at Daladier: "I am very grateful to France for its help to the American people at this critical moment. The United States will provide an additional 500 Grant Lee tanks and 300 P-37s on the original basis. fighter jets to France." He turned to Chamberlain and said, "Now Britain can use three aircraft carriers for Australia's defense. As long as you can persist in the South Pacific until October 1939, we have enough land to defend West Coast, when all aircraft carriers will be sent to the South Pacific."

The "betrayal" of France and the stubbornness of the United States suddenly plunged Britain into a huge dilemma.Although they have 10 aircraft carriers, there are not many large aircraft carriers that are really useful.Moreover, the battlefield to be defended is too vast. Germany must be watched over the North Sea, Japan must be defended in the South Pacific, and Italy in the Mediterranean must also be careful. In addition, Singapore also needs an aircraft carrier to provide support...

Just when Chamberlain and Churchill were trying their best to persuade Roosevelt, Colonel Carton, Roosevelt's adjutant, suddenly appeared in the conference room.He held the telegram he had just received in his hand, breathing slightly short of breath, and said nervously: "Mr. President, I just received the telegram that Chinese planes are attacking Singapore! In addition, they also launched attacks on Borneo and Burma at the same time." !"

……

Inside the Shanghai French Club, in the living room, several people were having afternoon tea.They were Marshal Luo Yaoguo of China, Marshal Goering of Germany, Empress Anastasia of Russia, and Count Ciano of Italy, but the Japanese general Nagata Tieshan was not among them.It turned out that after the Japanese Minister of War negotiated with China and Germany on the amount of aid and Japan's obligations for this (launch an attack on the United States or the Panama Canal before the end of March 1939), he hurried to Boarded the plane back to Japan.

The content discussed at the afternoon tea today has nothing to do with Japan. It mainly discusses the positions held by the two European powers, the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Italy, in this world war.

Although the Russian Empire has just come out of a war that was almost catastrophic, its domestic heavy industry was almost completely destroyed, and its agricultural output dropped by almost 60%. Only food aid (loans) provided by Germany and China prevented a catastrophe. famine.However, the strong and capable nationalities of the Russian nation, the population base of 3000 to [-] million, and the vast land of tens of millions of square kilometers determine that this country is still a world power. Her attitude in this world war It also counts.

In addition, Italy is considered a "first-class power" in the current world. Although Luo Yaoguo knows the details of this country, others dare not underestimate this paper tiger.

These two powers have only been neutral so far. Although their attitude towards China and Germany is very obvious, they have not broken faces with Britain and the United States.In this regard, the Russian Empress Anastasia's explanation is: Russia needs to heal the wounds of the war and rebuild the national economy, and she once promised the people during the anti-Soviet war that the Russian Empire will not participate in any wars unless she Encountered an enemy invasion!

However, both Luo Yaoguo and Goring knew another reason why the Queen was unwilling to participate in the war. The greed of the Russian people for territory determined that the attitude of most Russians towards China and Germany must be full of hostility.If they are forced to participate in the war on the side of China and Germany, the throne of Empress Anastasia may be unstable!

But this woman is now in both China and Germany. Whether it is Hitler or Luo Yaoguo, they all hope that her rule can be stable, so that the rear areas of China and Germany can maintain peace, and they can also obtain from Russia the oil necessary to maintain the war. , iron ore, bauxite, non-ferrous metals and other strategic resources.

In addition, these two fascists have their own little calculations... Although the Russian Empire has been weakened, its roots have been preserved, and it will become a big country in the near future!Not allowing her to participate in this "must-win" world war is actually a restriction on the Russian Empire. No one wants to see Russia expand its territory again through war, right?Especially her current direction of expansion seems to be only the Middle East!Luo Yaoguo has long been planning to take over that fat and oily territory, how can Russia be allowed to get involved?Therefore, Luo Yaoguo and Goring quickly expressed their understanding of the Queen's pacifist position.

However, they expressed great dissatisfaction with Italy's refusal to join the war so far.And Luo Yaoguo was even more surprised that Hitler failed to convince Mussolini. What was this ambitious and talented leader worried about?Thinking of this, Luo Yaoguo put down the coffee cup in his hand, looked at the Italian count opposite, and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Count, what is Italy waiting for? Now is the best time for Italy to seize the domination of the Mediterranean Sea. Why is your navy Why don't you do it yet?"

Chapter 0818 I died for the king (three) liver payment is an American spy!

Hearing Luo Yaoguo's question, Count Ciano still had an Italian-style elegant and casual smile. "Your Excellency Marshal, we Italy have our own war plan. When everything is ready and the time is right, we will go to war without hesitation. But it is obviously not the best time for Italy to go to war."

There was silence in the living room. Fat Goring Ciano seemed to have been mentally prepared for his answer, so he didn't try to persuade him.In fact, Hitler also wanted to join Mussolini. After China and Germany officially declared war on Britain and France, he visited Rome three times within a month, trying to persuade the Italian dictator.But the result made him feel very regretful. The Italian leader seemed to want to wait until the situation of the war became clearer before choosing a side to join.However, this attitude is also in line with the Italian nature of opportunism.

At this moment the Empress of Russia broke the silence by speaking suddenly. "Monsieur Count, do you mean that ... Italy is not bound to join the war? If the ripe time never comes."

"Your Majesty, of course this possibility cannot be ruled out." Count Ciano thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

In fact, Italy and Russia have something in common in their attitudes towards Britain, France and Germany.An overly strong Germany is not what they like to see, and the balance of power between Britain, France and Germany is really in the interests of Italy and Russia.Of course, this does not mean that these two countries will join Britain and France to oppose the powerful Germany. The cunning Italians are not willing to be cannon fodder, and the Russian Empress does not want to follow in the footsteps of her father Nicholas II - she knows very well , Russia can no longer afford a world war.

Empress Anastasia frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something. After a while, an elegant and noble smile appeared on her face again.She glanced at the few people in the living room, and said with a faint smile: "Gentlemen, I think you all know that it is easy to start a war, but it is very difficult to end it, especially a worldwide war." War. And now, shouldn't Germany and China have a comprehensive plan to end the war? A protracted world war is something no one wants, except, of course, the Bolsheviks!"

"Your Majesty means..." Fatty Goring raised his eyes to look at the Queen, with a little contempt in his eyes.But when he saw the marshal of the Chinese National Defense Forces in uniform beside the queen, his eyes could not help but become serious.

"Anas has a very good suggestion, I think it's worth our consideration." Luo Yaoguo also turned his head to look at the queen beside him, his eyes seemed to be full of tenderness, giving the feeling that he had already gotten along with this fox-like woman. The cunning queen seemed to have negotiated a way to end the war.But in fact, he didn't even know what kind of medicine was being sold in the queen's gourd... The two of them didn't discuss state affairs in bed.
