"Your Highness, the autonomous region's grain and ammunition reserves are now fine, enough to support our consumption in several medium-sized battles."
"Very good." Zhu Xuefeng put down his chopsticks and turned to Song Yan.
"Didn't you say that they are now in shortage of weapons? Let them make a reliable list and we will sell the points to them."
"Yes, I will contact them immediately." Song Yan accepted the order without thinking, but Yang Maosheng frowned.
"Your Highness, we have fought with them twice, and now we are still holding nearly 2,000 of their people in labor camps. Our two forces are bordering on each other. Is it appropriate to sell weapons to them?"
"It's just conventional weapons. We haven't asked you to sell tanks, planes, or artillery. They won't pose a threat to us. If they are too weak and are not in our interests, they will be beaten to the ground in two or two. The next one to deal with will definitely be We."
Only then did Yang Maosheng understand Zhu Xuefeng's true intention, "Your Highness, I am just a layman in military affairs, so I want to keep it simple."
"It's okay. I came here to discuss it. By the way, how many tanks and field artillery do we have now?”
“Chief, we have now added twenty-four Type 59 tanks, forty cannons, twenty-four howitzers, and more than three dozen Thousand rocket launchers. "
As a secret weapon, three thousand rocket launchers are enough to be invincible. Zhu Xuefeng is very satisfied.
"Not bad. It seems that you have sold a lot of weapons to Saudi Arabia. Okay, with these plus the previous ones, even if the four parties join forces, we can ensure that the autonomous region is safe and sound. Commander Song, we must get to know the intelligence as soon as possible and be prepared to avoid Unexpected. "
The autonomous region has taken on the task of exporting domestic weapons. The first sales customer is the Peninsula, and then uses the profits from the sale to add some equipment to itself. At present, the autonomous region does not have the ability to produce tanks and artillery. Weapon abilities.
The talks continued, and it took a long time to break up. Finally, the strategic policy of secretly supporting the defeated army was determined, and the defeated army was given directions on its retreat. Unable to hold on, it was suggested to move directly to the east.
Song Yan is responsible for paying attention to this cleanup, covering the retreat of the defeated army when necessary. He must disrupt the Huangnan Army's operation and pay close attention to the follow-up developments. If they dare to offend the autonomous region, they will fight them out unswervingly.
Li Xiaojun was excited when he heard that he could fight him out without hesitation. The leader finally kept him alive. It was not easy.
"Chief, Siam to the east didn't even have a war in World War II. You are diverting trouble to the east."
"Xiaojun." Song Yan knocked on the table and reminded again Li Xiaojun paid attention to the identity of the leader.
Zhu Xuefeng looked at Zhou Xingguo and Yang Maosheng. Fortunately, there were only two of them more than last time. He smiled, this is Li Xiaojun.
"It doesn't matter, they are all our own people. Xiaojun is right. This is the second time that Siam has joined the coalition to deal with the defeated army. With them, they could surrender Fusang without firing a shot in World War II. What do they get? Come and bear the wrath of this defeated army.”
It is conceivable that if such a day comes, the defeated army will become a nightmare for Siam.
After setting the basic policy of three pillars, Zhu Xuefeng acted alone for two days and finally solved the space issue.
Accompanied by Song Yan and Li Xiaojun, we came to the seaside military port again. We hadn’t seen each other for a few months and the changes had been great. There were a few more small gunboats in the harbor. These were the Type 62 gunboats ordered the year before last. Already officially in service.
"Six ships have been delivered now, which is considered to be delivered ahead of schedule. There are two more ships that could have been delivered years ago. All J-6s have been delivered and routine patrols have now begun. The first batch of training navy and air force have already Once in place, there is no need to send the second batch of personnel over. The other party will train us in the autonomous region, which is much more convenient.” , go to the secret shipyard. "
In the harbor outside the shipyard, several renovated and refitted ships are docked at the shipyard pier.
“I just took it out last month and ran at sea for more than ten days. Now I’m back for inspection to see if there are any problems on the maiden voyage.”
“Well, continue, we must form it next year Combat effectiveness."
Looking at the "parallel import" helicopter carrier he designed again, it is almost completed. It is just a large wooden ship covered with iron sheets, but Zhu Xuefeng is still very satisfied. This will be of great use next year. It looks like a "parallel import" and has no defense capabilities, but it must be an aircraft carrier on the radar, especially since it is equipped with helicopters and countless rocket launchers. It should be able to scare many people in this area.
When Song Yan and Li Xiaojun entered the hidden cave shipyard, Li Xiaojun was shocked when faced with a huge guy and a submarine.
“Chief, when did you get this? Darling, it’s so big.”
Li Xiaojun was really stunned, but Song Yan was a little better. Zhu Xuefeng had told him a long time ago that the reason why he spent so much effort to create such a big cave was ultimately to study the big guy.
Zhu Xuefeng did not answer, "Let Lao Yang contact the country and ask them to come to the site for research. We can cooperate and dismantle it. We have a weak foundation now and cannot afford to build or maintain this thing. We need something else. The benefits are fine.”
“Chief, what benefits can be compared with this? Don’t dismantle it. We will use it ourselves after modification. Chief, please don’t dismantle it. It’s a pity.”
"For example, just help us build a few universities and research institutes, and a few military academies. Of course, we have the right to share the technology, and they should agree."
Zhu Xuefeng has a document in his pocket. I should be able to discuss the benefits of applying domestically in the past two days if I plan to do so.
Li Xiaojun was very concerned about this behemoth. When he heard that it was going to be dismantled for research, he became anxious and burst into tears to save it. Zhu Xuefeng took one look at this guy and knew that he would be of this virtue, so he didn't immediately Tell him.
"Even if it is not dismantled, this ship cannot be used and can only be used for research. Tell them that we also have ship-borne aircraft, which are all in the closed hangar in Pagang."
"Chief, what a pity, what a pity. Can you please stop tearing it down and use it instead?" Li Xiaojun was still begging, and Zhu Xuefeng patted him on the shoulder and pointed at the giant thing.
“Do you know how many soldiers and officers the normal strength of this thing is? It’s more than 4,500. Your current navy has less than a thousand people at full strength. Even if you can drive a ship, you can’t do this thing well. Besides, You haven’t even used a few gunboats, come on.”
Not bothering to explain to him that countless ships are needed to escort the aircraft carrier, Zhu Xuefeng directly rejected Li Xiaojun’s suggestion. It is impossible for the current autonomous region to maintain this thing. How could he dare to pull him out? He was just looking for death.
Li Xiaojun looked at the big guy in front of him with a sense of loss. Indeed, the chief was right. The navy now has only a thousand people in total, and only a few dozen people have received formal training. This thing that is within reach can only be a dream.
Seeing that Li Xiaojun was still staring at the aircraft carrier, Zhu Xuefeng also knew how attractive this thing was to him, but this was too unrealistic and an unpleasant reminder for the autonomous region in front of him.
“Stop thinking nonsense. Before the autonomous region had a population of 50 million, we only did research on this project. This is a gold-eating beast. With our current size, even if we give it to you, you can’t afford it. , let’s do something practical first.
“Can we use those boat-based aircraft? "Both of them were told about the secret air force hangar in Pagang before they came here. A batch of new fighters have been stored at the airport, and various fighters are stored in several warehouses.
Including F-14A "Tomcat" fighter jet, F/A-18C "Hornet", A-6E "Intruder" attack aircraft, KA-6D tanker, E-2C Hawkeye early warning aircraft, EA-6B "Prowler" Electronic warfare aircraft, S-3B anti-submarine aircraft, SH-60F anti-submarine helicopters, HH-60H "Black Hawk" rescue helicopters, there are all kinds of them, no matter how old or young they are, they directly filled the hangar and had no choice but to give up. You must know that there are a total of eighty warplanes on the aircraft carrier. There are less than twenty aircraft that can be stored in the hangar.
More are still waiting in the space. The hangar is really not enough, and the autonomous region cannot bear the fear of being discovered by spy satellites when stored at the airport. Despite the bald eagle’s anger, Zhu Xuefeng is not so arrogant.
“Why use it? I will keep one early warning aircraft, one electronic warfare aircraft, and one tanker each, and replace all the others with J-6 and H-6 aircraft. Do you know why I replaced them all? Use your brain. "
Both of them guessed that they probably didn't want to attract the attention of the old Americans. The appearance of the helicopter they got last time was completely modified and repainted before they dared to take it out for use.
"It's just a pity that we now claim to have an air force, but it turns out we only have six J-6s and can only form three combat teams. It would be really embarrassing if something happens. "Li Xiaojun is still thinking.
"If all these are exchanged for domestic research, the exchange will at least be enough for you to organize two more aviation regiments (24*2, 48 fighters). You don't have enough pilots now, so hurry up and train them. Don't aim too high."
After hearing this, Song Yan and Li Xiaojun looked at each other and smiled. It would be good to have dozens of J-6s, which can create a scale effect. Plus the remaining electronic reconnaissance aircraft, early warning aircraft, and tankers, it seems that there are already many in this area. Invincible, no wonder the chief has the confidence to sell weapons.
"Yes, we promise to speed up the process. There are already eighty people in the second batch of people who have passed the physical examination and political examination, which is definitely enough. Don't worry, chief."
"Don't worry, it's not like you don't Knowing the elimination ratio of pilots, it would be a good thing if half of the eighty can fly. Just hurry up, there will definitely be enough planes in the future, and there will not be enough pilots by then. "
The leader is indeed a magical person, although he does not understand this. Good guy, how did the chief get it? But the two of them knew that these things could only be kept in their hearts. Even if they asked, the chief would definitely use the top secret excuse to shut them up.
In Zhu Xuefeng's next plan, he also wants to jointly develop aircraft with China. The demand for not only fighter aircraft but also passenger aircraft is also a big market. Zhu Xuefeng is now studying engine technology hard just for this.
When Wu Qianqian recruits those experts and professors, Zhu Xuefeng will be confident in imitating and optimizing the engine as long as he can solve the problem of high-temperature resistant materials for the engine and use his own clairvoyance function.
"This place is classified as a top secret. No one is allowed to enter without your consent, and no information is allowed to be disclosed, you know."
"Yes, I will arrange another one right away. Come over and make sure there won't be any leaks."
"Look at the arrangements. All people entering must be strictly controlled. Again, no accidents are allowed."
Zhu Xuefeng emphasized again, which put a lot of pressure on the two of them, "I promise to complete the task, please rest assured, chief." Song Yan gritted his teeth and stood at attention and saluted again. Zhu Xuefeng just patted him on the shoulder without saying another word, and turned to lead. The team leaves.
After finalizing the aircraft carrier matter, there is nothing urgent to do here. Zhu Xuefeng decided to visit a few important factories and meet a few more people before returning to the capital. He is running around here and there, and it is almost a holiday. Went halfway.
…
"Your Highness, this is, yes, this is the sword of Emperor Yongle. It must be right. It was sent to Xizang by our ancestors back then. It is still in our family's genealogy. There are records. "
Patriarch Yang held the Yongle sword in his hands and burst into tears. He held the sword respectfully and knelt down.
"Your Highness, now that this precious treasure has appeared, I respectfully invite Your Highness to proclaim the king and succeed to the throne, so that our mighty Ming Dynasty will last forever."
Zhu Xuefeng is a little embarrassed. What years have passed and how many years have he recovered? The Ming Dynasty a hundred years ago was a bit of a joke. Besides, the Yongle Sword cannot be seen in the light now. It has to wait for several years or more. There is an excuse for taking it out again. Now people just take it out themselves as soon as they lose it. This is not Why don't you bring it upon yourself? Although it was originally yours, if it is exposed now, it is not worth the gain.
Glancing at Yanzi, he blamed himself for being dizzy. He could only step forward quickly and help the Yang clan leader up, "Please get up quickly. We can discuss this later."
This is because he lamented the loyalty of the Yang family, so he specifically asked the Yang family patriarch to take a look at the treasure of the motherland. He also listened to Yanzi's lies and did not expect to cause such an embarrassing scene.
Clan Chief Yang knelt down again, "Your Highness, I respectfully invite you again..."
The leader of the Yang family actually tried to persuade him to come in for the second time. He couldn't let him continue to make trouble any longer. It would be a joke to ask him three times. Could it be that he had to give in three times? Zhu Xuefeng stretched out his hand again, and with a little force, he directly helped the leader of the Yang family.
"Old patriarch, let's not talk about this topic. The world is no different now than before."
The old patriarch saw that although Zhu Xuefeng's tone was gentle, but his attitude was firm, he felt the strength in his arms. , knowing that Zhu Xuefeng would never agree today, so he had to give up.
"Your Highness, in this case, please allow me to summon the clan members to kneel down and worship the treasure left by me."
"Old man, this is not possible, this sword is still highly confidential, and only those present can Several people know that if this is publicized, it will bring great trouble to the autonomous region. Please don't embarrass my senior brother."
Yanzi quickly stepped forward to stop the Yang clan leader's actions. This is going to cause trouble. It would be a sin for me to suggest that my senior brother come over.
Clan Chief Yang looked at the sword with many thoughts, and finally he could only sigh heavily.
"What Miss Yanzi said is reasonable, but the old minister is confused. However, Your Highness, with this, even if you can't tell the world for the time being, you should consider..."
I know it is better to ascend the throne. Zhu Xuefeng quickly interrupted the act of claiming to be king.
"Mr. Yang, I just said that we can discuss it later. The time is not ripe now."
Seeing Zhu Xuefeng's repeated insistence, the Yang clan leader seemed a little disappointed. After thinking for a while, he asked with a look of curiosity on his face.
"Your Highness, since you said the time is not ripe, I will wait patiently, but His Highness's opening of the mansion should be on the schedule. You are now an adult, this..."
Zhu Xuefeng understands What Yang Lao wanted to say quickly expressed his position.
"I understand what you mean. It will take a few years, but I can't schedule it now. As you know, I am very busy now and I don't have time to think about life-long events."
"Your Highness, otherwise, leave this matter to the old minister, who will definitely choose a noble daughter with both ability and political integrity for Your Highness." (End of Chapter)
