Bright Sword: Leading the Special Operations Squadron to Fight the Japs

Chapter 214 Country M

The transport captain frowned. What on earth was Nelson Johnson, the ambassador of Country M, doing here at this critical moment?

"Let him in!"

Nelson Johnson, dressed in a black suit, walked quickly into the room, beaming with joy.

"Congratulations, sir. You actually won such a great victory at the critical moment. It's really unexpected and surprising!"

"Mr. Nelson, what's so surprising about this? It's just a small achievement made by the local troops. We can't brag about it, otherwise these people will be so proud of themselves!"

Nelson listened to the hysterical humility in the transport captain's words. Could this be the legendary Chinese saying "success does not have to be mine"?

"Sir, no matter what, this is a major event for China to resist foreign aggression. I will definitely report to Washington that the federal support has not been wasted! We must increase aid to China!"

When the transport captain heard about this good thing, he thought it was like pie falling from the sky.

His expression looked a little better, and he straightened up slightly.

"Mr. Nelson, please tell the Washington government that we Chinese will never surrender to the invaders! As for the war aid, please add some more!"

Nelson rolled his eyes, and a hint of cunning appeared on his serious face.

"Of course there is no problem with aid, but we want to know what kind of weapons the Chinese Air Force used to defeat the Japanese Zero fighters?"

So this is what Nelson was thinking.

The Zero fighter not only showed off its might in the skies of China, but also defeated the American Air Force on the Pacific battlefield.

Even though the United States is already researching a new generation of fighter jets, it has yet to come up with ideas on some key issues, so prototypes frequently malfunction and fail to achieve the expected results.

Therefore, Nelson wanted to find out whether it was the assistance from the country E in the north or the use of secret weapons by China that resulted in zero losses in the air battle and almost wiped out two Japanese flying regiments.

However, Nelson still expressed doubts about this Warring States period. After all, it was impossible for Country E to provide the most advanced fighter jets to China. In addition, he did not believe that the impoverished and weak China could develop any secret weapons on its own.

The transport captain was now in a dilemma. He only knew that the independent column had its own air force, but he had no idea why they were able to shoot down the Japanese planes.

Looking at his embarrassed expression, Nelson was a little confused. Was there any difficulty?

"Sir, could you please ask the commander in charge of this air battle to come to Chongqing? I want to talk to him in person to understand the situation."

In order to provide assistance, the transport team leader had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

"No problem, you'll be meeting our Air Force Commander soon!"

After the transport captain sent Nelson away, he immediately contacted Yan Laoxi and asked the 386th Brigade to fly to Chongqing immediately with the planes and the air force commander.

At this moment, Yan Laoxi had no time to pay attention to Chongqing, because Yoshio Shinozuka had found Yan Laoxi through an intermediary and asked him to mediate and return Kenjiro Keisuke's body to the Japanese.

Yan Laoxi was walking around the room. The Eighth Route Army and the Japanese were mortal enemies, fighting to the death. Unlike his bottom line, it could be loosened at any time, so he was unsure.

"Commander Yan, there's a call from Chongqing!"

Yan Laoxi took the telegram, read it quickly, and summed it up in one sentence, asking him to save face and invite Li Yunlong and others to Chongqing.

"Damn it, you only assign the job of selling your face to me, why don't you remember me when there's something good going on?"

Yan Laoxi tore the telegram into pieces and sat on the stool in silence.

The staff rushed over.

"Commander Yan, since we have the order from Chongqing, why don't we take this opportunity to go to Pingshun and find a chance to bring Qing Sanpu's body back to him?"

Old Man Yan sighed. This was the only solution now, so he could only nod.

Now he only hoped that Li Yunlong would spare the Japanese soldier Qing Sanpu's life and not grind him to ashes.

Yan Laoxi rushed to Pingshun without stopping.

At this time, Wang Meng in Pingshun was studying his handheld terminal.

[Complete the task of forming an air force and shooting down enemy fighters, unlock various industrial mother machines (100 points per machine)]

With advanced industrial machine tools, we can manufacture all kinds of machinery and then produce a variety of industrial products.

Wang Meng immediately went to the Institute of Mechanical Engineering of Pingshun Academy of Sciences and found the director Gu Yuquan.

"Director Gu, how is your research going recently?"

Gu Yuzhen, who came from Wuxi and had a prominent family background, pushed his glasses and sighed.

"Chief of Staff Wang, the institute has recently recruited several graduate students, but our industrial machine tools cannot keep up. Many designed machines are only at the drawing stage. We are also powerless to deal with the drawings sent by various research institutes!"

Gu Yuzhen graduated from Cornell University in the United States and received his Ph.D.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he resolutely returned to China to support the industrial development of the motherland and served as the director of Nanjing Industrial Research Institute.

However, due to the poor industrial foundation of China and the idleness of Chongqing, China has not been able to realize its ambitions.

So, he brought researchers and students who were willing to join Pingshun and came to Pingshun to establish the Institute of Mechanical Engineering.

Even though Pingshun Academy of Sciences provided a large amount of funding and full support, it was unable to import advanced machine tools due to the Japanese blockade and foreign wariness.

The Mechanical Engineering Research Institute can only rely on two old machine tools to carry out simple mechanical processing, but the accuracy does not meet the design requirements, and the quality of various machines produced is worrying.

Gu Yuzhen fell into the awkward situation of being unable to make a meal without rice. Every day he could only look at the perfect drawings and sigh in despair.

Wang Meng felt somewhat relieved when he saw Gu Yuchen, who was at a loss.

"Director Gu, please choose a piece of land in the development zone!"

Gu Yucheng was a little confused. What the institute needed most at the moment was industrial machine tools, not land! Could it be that Wang Meng still didn't understand the predicament facing the Institute of Mechanical Engineering? ?

Gu Yuchen's tone became a little stiff.

"Chief of Staff Wang, what we want is not land! We want high-precision advanced machine tools!"

After Gu Yuzhen finished speaking, he prepared to leave.

Cultural people naturally have the arrogance of cultural people, especially those who are arrogant because of their talent.

Wang Meng has always respected such capable people. Even if they only look up at the sky and not the ground when they walk, he thinks that this is the arrogance of talent.

"Director Gu, don't be in a hurry! Just choose a site. In the afternoon, gather all the researchers and students from the Institute of Mechanical Engineering and we will have a simple meeting!"

Seeing Wang Meng's insistence, Gu Yuzhen could only nod his head. He made up his mind that if he really couldn't make it here, he would have to consider his brother's advice.
