At this time, a group of Japanese diplomats, civilians and military attaches sitting in front of the radio looked at each other and said in unison: "As expected, Wang Maoru is extremely dangerous. If we give him more time to develop, our country will definitely have no chance. China should be stopped. development, even at the risk of a fight." Several people then grimaced. Last year, the Great Kanto Earthquake caused Japan's national economy to retreat by one-third, and the Tokyo area was completely destroyed. Originally, because of the end of the European War, European countries protected their own industries, which caused Japan's economic downturn. However, it suffered from this natural disaster. It took Japan ten years to recover.
But given China ten years, will Japan still be able to realize its plan for the Japanese to enter the mainland?
When the Japanese Embassy sent Wang Moru's New Year's speech back to the country, Sato, who had just been qualified to enter the cabinet to observe, had always been called a genius, wrote to Prime Minister Yamamoto Gonbei: "From Wang Moru Hidemori's speech In the New Year's speech, I did not hear the symbol of China's strength. Instead, I heard the clamor of fierceness and anger. You know, a biting wolf cannot howl, only a native dog barks and threatens when it is afraid. China has just ended its civil war. In three years, is it really capable of fighting the Empire of Japan? China's warships only took advantage of the end of the European War to buy some bargains three years ago. There is no navy at all - some are just river fleets. Once China and Japan go to war, The Imperial Japanese Navy can destroy nearly half of China's industry. Shanghai, Tianjin, Weihai, Shantou, Jinzhou, Vladivostok, Temple Street, Xiamen, etc., while the offshore cities of Hangzhou, Nanjing, Nantong, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Qinzhou can also be destroyed one by one . Our navy can also enter mainland China through the Yangtze River and Pearl River, especially both sides of the Yangtze River. Our navy can directly reach Wuhan and divide China into two. China has no navy and China has no coastal defense. Why should we worry about someone who can only defend? What about the country? Countless history shows that the navy represents offense. The powerful Imperial Japanese Navy is our Muramasa and Kusanagi, while China is just wearing armor. Even if it wears the toughest armor, it has no The power shakes the Japanese Empire. The animals with the most powerful defenses on the earth are elephants and rhinos, but are the lives of elephants and rhinos safe? The roars they make are just fear. In the appearance of the powerful China I just have a fragile heart."
Prime Minister Yamamoto Gonbei, Navy Minister Finance Ministry Tiao. Navy commander Suzuki Kantaro and other naval figures were extremely satisfied with Sato's conclusion because he analyzed Japan's advantages from the perspective of its opponents, which is the powerful Japanese navy. Because the Japanese Army was caught in the East Siberian War and had to continue to invest in the East Siberian War, Japan's finances were even worse. The Navy Department was extremely dissatisfied with the Army Department. A fairy. Sato suddenly began to support the Admiralty, much to the excitement of these admirals.
"Hidetake Sato's position in the Japanese cabinet is extremely special. He is a leader and has no right to control anyone. He is an insignificant person, but his ideas are often unexpected. Of course, his idea might not be the best. It's not the worst, but when someone pays attention, the aimless guessing of everyone at the headquarters is much better. People who like him naturally like his wild imagination, but people who don't like him always think that he is frivolous and cannot be reused.
In short, Sato, who successfully hooked up with Hirohito's sister, is considered a relative of the royal family and one of the senior officials. It's just that sometimes this senior cadre is not welcome, but sometimes you have to listen to his ideas, and of course, they are just ideas. Sato and Li Muhan knew that they were in a lowly position in the government at this time. The only success was in seducing Hirohito's sister. At the same time, he also maintained good relations with the wives of several senior government officials and seduced other people's daughters everywhere. . It can be said that he will not be able to obtain any important positions for the time being, but he has received a lot of news.
He is trying his best to delay Japan so that Japan will not transfer its domestic conflicts to China for the time being because of the collapse of the economy. The Japanese people are increasingly disappointed with the country, and workers, citizens, and farmers in various places have transferred their conflicts to the Japanese government. The Japanese military also demanded rights at this time, demanding that the conflict or the flames of war be burned elsewhere. Of course, Japan has done this before, at least it is doing so in Eastern Siberia. However, the Japanese have no interest in that barren land of ice and snow. What they hope to get is the mainland, mainland China.
Li Muhan understands this. The Japanese greed for Chinese territory will explode sooner or later. He can only delay it as much as possible to buy more time for China to develop.
China¡¯s development is inseparable from those secret agents who secretly sacrificed their lives for China, and Li Muhan is just one of them.
At this time, the Chinese President's New Year broadcast on the radio station was completed. Wang Maoru expressed his gratitude to the surrounding staff, which made the radio station staff very excited. It was time for the holiday. Wang Maoru expressed his gratitude to all the staff of the Presidential Palace. The car returns to?ÖÐ. It's Chinese New Year, and everyone is preparing for the New Year at No. 99 Yanjing Street. However, something happened that made Wang Maoru's New Year's Eve miserable.
It turned out that Air Force Commander Lu Rongting took off from Beijing to Guangxi on a Q088 Qianniu 1 transport aircraft with his family and some family members of National Defense Force officers, a total of 16 people, and disappeared while flying over Xiangyang and Changde
Wang Maoru did not have a good year that night. As soon as the bell passed twelve o'clock, he immediately communicated by phone with the Minister of Defense Sa Zhenbing, and directly ordered Zhao Qing, commander of the Kunpeng Corps of the 15th Group Army, to send troops into Shennongjia to find the transport plane that Lu Rongting was riding. Lu Rongting left Beijing on February 1. First, the plane took off in the morning and flew to Shimen Airport in Shimen City (Shijiazhuang) around 10 a.m. for fuel replenishment and aircraft inspection. Then the plane took off again and arrived at Gongxian County, Henan Province at four o'clock in the afternoon. Since Gongxian County has a garrison and an airport, Lu Rongting and others rested in Gongxian County for a night. The Gongxian County Magistrate and others invited Lu Rongting to a banquet because he drank a lot. Lu Rongting and others did not get up in the morning of February 2 the next day, but recovered after noon. At noon on February 2, the plane continued to take off. It was supposed to arrive in Changde on the evening of the 2nd, but it had to speed up its flight because it was delayed all morning in Gong County.
The garrison battalion commander of Gongxian Airport clearly remembered that Lu Rongting ordered the Q088 transport plane to take off with full fuel, instead of loading 80%. Lu Rongting requested that the plane must fly to Changde tonight. The captain of the aircraft disagreed at the time. He believed that although the Q088 transport aircraft could theoretically fly from Zhengzhou to Changde, it had never made such a long-distance flight. In the name of obeying military orders, Lu Rongting required the captain to fly, and the captain and co-pilot had to obey the orders of the aviation chief.
On the evening of February 2, Changde County had prepared an airstrip. However, after the airport of the Changde Defense Force sent a telegram to inquire, they heard that the transport plane Q088 was already late when it took off in Gong County, so they judged that it was impossible for them to arrive tonight. Changde, should stay in Xiangyang as originally planned.
However, at noon on February 3, the Changde Defense Force Airport asked Xiangyang, and Xiangyang asked them if they had not arrived in Changde. Because Lu Rongting gave them electricity before leaving and told Xiangyang that he decided to fly directly to Changde Airport.
Now both sides panicked and immediately reported to the police. The National Defense Force soldiers in Xiangyang reported that they had spotted a transport plane flying over Xiangyang. The five-color flag and mention on the plane indicated that it must be a transport plane. In other words, the plane flew over Xiangyang City and disappeared between Xiangyang and Changde, which is in mountainous areas such as Jingmen Mountain.
Staff officers at the Army Aviation Headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense judged the worst possibility. It is very likely that the aircraft will cause engine failure or parts failure due to long-term flight. It will eventually crash because it is difficult to find the landing target in the dark - or even hit a mountain.
After communicating with the Ministry of National Defense, Wang Maoruyou was worried and immediately rushed to the Army Aviation Headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense to inquire about the progress and situation. The two deputy chiefs of the Army Aviation Headquarters, Li Ruyan and Luo Haiquan, and a group of staff gathered urgently on New Year's Day. Collect intelligence from all parties. Agents from the National Bureau of Statistics also actively mobilized to cooperate in searching for clues. All radio stations at the Army Aviation Headquarters were turned on to collect information.
"Is there no parachute on the plane?" Wang Maoru asked anxiously.
"Yes." Li Ruyan, deputy commander of Lu Hang, said. He is familiar with various performances of aircraft. As a fighter pilot, he is not only familiar with domestic and foreign fighter jets, but also knows everything about airships, transport aircraft, reconnaissance aircraft and seaplanes. Now Lu Hang Everyone in the aviation department can be said to be the elite among the elites. He immediately explained, "Plane Q088 should be equipped with twenty parachute bags, and according to the flight safety regulations of the National Defense Forces Army Aviation, before the crash, the captain The parachuting device will definitely be activated and everyone will be asked to abandon the plane and parachute."
"That's good." Wang Maoru sighed and said depressedly, "In this way, no matter where the plane goes, the people on the plane can always be found. I hope they succeed in parachuting, and they won't be like now. It¡¯s just as good as disappearing without a trace.¡±
"Theoretically, this is the case." Ji Wen, director of the Equipment Department of the Ministry of Army Aviation, said, "But in fact, there are certain dangers for people who have not been trained."
"That's not important. What's important is that nothing happens to Chief Lu." Wang Maoru said. He sighed and said to the officers at the Army Aviation Headquarters: "You must know that Chief Lu's safety is not only related to the face of your Army Aviation Department. The problem is, he is still the spiritual leader of the original Guangxi clique. If someone takes the opportunity to sow discord, it will cause the officers and soldiers of the Guangxi clique to have distracting thoughts." Only then did everyone realize the importance of Lu Rongting's existence. Yes, a small matter, if foreigners If used, it will become a big weapon to attack China - the Japanese, British, French and Russian devils like to do this kind of thing to disturb the Chinese people's hearts and minds.
