The United States dispatched more warships and as many as fifteen aircraft carriers.
The war entered a feverish stage as soon as it began.
The Japanese's problems remained unchanged and they adopted old-fashioned tactics. Their aircraft carrier was quickly bitten by American carrier-based aircraft, and the overwhelming aircraft dropped bombs and torpedoes densely. From time to time, warships were hit.
"Captain, the Hexiang is gone."
The sailors on the Yukikaze suddenly shouted, and the captain immediately picked up the telescope and looked into the distance to see where on the sea there was the shadow of the Hexiang aircraft carrier that they had protected before.
"Damn it, hit me, hit me."
The captain of the Yukikaze was furious. What he was most afraid of was not that he would be injured, but that the warship he was protecting would be lost. The result was good. Whatever he was afraid of, he got what he wanted.
Now no one wants to fight alongside them.
The Yukikaze fought bravely and was commendable. The god of luck really enveloped them. The other warships sank heavily and suffered serious injuries. They were stunned that they didn't get a single shrapnel.
At the end of the battle, the Yukikaze worked hard to salvage friendly troops who fell into the water and rescued many people.
The captain was very speechless. When he learned that Yukikaze had rescued them, the rescued people immediately felt relieved and chatted happily, as if nothing would happen again.
At the end of the war, Japan lost three aircraft carriers again, was sunk and damaged dozens of warships of various types, and its vitality was severely damaged.
The United States won the victory. Saijo's goal of using the naval victory to consolidate his position not only failed, but also completely disappointed others.
After the war, a strange scene happened.
It was clear that Japan was defeated, but the propaganda in the country was a great victory, triggering countless crazy Japanese people to support them. They have stopped reporting bad battle reports, anyway, the people in the country will not know the truth of the matter.
Regardless of whether there is victory or not, the empire will always win. This is their method of fooling the people.
In Wuhan, Gangcun received the naval battle report and sighed heavily.
Saijo was over, India failed to succeed in its bet, and the navy suffered such a huge defeat, even Ikuto's tolerance for him reached its limit.
He's done his job as prime minister.
He hasn't resigned yet because no one is willing to clean up this mess for him. However, there are many smart people in the country and it is impossible for Saijo to continue to hold the position of prime minister.
He must step down.
"The navy is incompetent, incompetent."
After receiving the battle report, Tian Junliu cursed angrily in the office. The common people did not know the truth, but they, the senior officers, knew it clearly.
The navy was defeated again and was unable to stop the Americans.
Next, the United States can attack Nanyang at any time. Their transportation lines in Nanyang will encounter greater dangers. Many merchant ships have been sunk by submarines in the past two years. In the future, not only submarines, but also the other party's warships and aircraft may encounter
.
"General, calm down."
The secretary hurriedly tried to persuade him, but Tian Shunliu suddenly turned around and yelled angrily: "How do you calm down, the empire is about to end, if you ask me to calm down, Saijiao deserves to die, deserve to die."
Tian Junliu was so angry that his secretary did not dare to persuade him any more.
"Order the front line to capture Hengyang as soon as possible at all costs. What I mean is no matter what the cost. Anyone who dares to be passive and lazy in the fight will be shot on the spot."
Tian Junliu regained his composure and immediately issued the latest combat order.
They must protect Nanyang. Without the resources of Nanyang, they will be finished soon without the United States taking action.
Especially oil. Without oil, aircraft and tanks would become mere decorations, and warships would only be parked in ports and become lumps of iron.
Tian Junliu understood that now was not the time to be angry with the navy, he must protect Nanyang and these resources.
The India-Myanmar border is already a hell on earth.
Without food and deep in the mountains, with no way to retreat and no way to advance, the hungry Japanese soldiers could do anything.
There were corpses everywhere, and the living people struggled to walk. Countless people fought each other with knives and even shot each other for food.
Tokyo, Imperial Palace.
Ikuto was very angry. The navy's defeat was inseparable from Saijo. The United States was now stronger than them, and they should not have taken the initiative to start a war with the United States. Saijo launched this war for his own benefit, regardless of the actual situation.
.
As a result, troops and generals were lost, and the navy became more dangerous.
Ikuto's tolerance for Saijo has indeed reached its peak.
Saijo, the prime minister, must be replaced.
After the results of the naval battle came back, Saijo's hands and feet were cold. He had used all his cards, and now only China was left as a hope.
But even if Tian Junliu wins, it has little to do with him.
That was the war that Tian Junliu was asked to launch by the base camp, and he had even opposed it before.
He didn't want Tian Junliu to get too much credit.
Saijo immediately felt the warmth and warmth of humanity. Before he stepped down, many people who usually fawned over him and had close contact with him severed contact with him.
"His Majesty."
In the palace, an old minister was looking at Yu Ren, who frowned.
He is considering a new candidate for prime minister.
It is best for the new prime minister to come from the army, not the navy, but he looked through the list of current army generals and found no one suitable.
Tian Junliu is qualified, but he has a more important task and must wait until this battle is finished.
If Tian Junliu wins, his prestige will be too high, and it would be inappropriate for him to be the prime minister.
Not to mention that if you fail, you will lose your qualification.
"Who do you think is more suitable to succeed Saijo?"
Yu Ren asked calmly. The old man was slightly startled and immediately replied: "As for the candidate for Prime Minister, everything is decided by His Majesty."
It seems that Ikuto's tolerance for Saijiao has reached its peak and he is no longer prepared to keep Saijiao.
Finding a suitable successor is not easy.
Yu Ren held secret meetings one after another and finally let him choose a suitable candidate.
The current Governor-General of North Korea, Xiao Zhao.
Xiao Zhao has qualifications and a high level. He is not currently in an important position, and he is in the reserve, so the conflict with active duty is not that big.
Xiao Zhao is not completely from the Army, so the Navy can accept it.
The conflict between the navy and the army really drove Yu Ren crazy.
Another point is that Xiao Zhao is relatively low-key, or more obedient, not as crazy as Saijo. What is needed most right now is to stabilize the empire and reverse the unfavorable situation of the war.
Time came to July, Saijo finally stepped down and Xiao Zhao took over the position of Prime Minister.
The literary society had no time to celebrate, the Battle of Hengyang was going on, and the war was very anxious every day.
Japan has occupied Changsha. Changsha, where General Xue once used the wonderful Tianlu strategy, was finally captured by the Japanese.
However, the Japanese also paid a heavy price.
The Guo army blocked them in Hengyang and fought for every inch of land. This time they finally showed a bit of Chinese spirit, unlike in the Battle of the Central Plains when they were defeated thousands of miles away.
Tian Junroku has no way out, and Saijo's resignation failed to attract him. Winning this battle is the most important thing for him.
On the other hand, many people in the literary club were dancing happily.
"Ishihara-kun, Saijo has finally stepped down. When will we take action against him?"
Takemoto said happily that he was most aware of the conflict between Ishihara Hiroshi and Saijo over the years. Even though Saijo became prime minister, he still had nothing to do with Ishihara Hiroshi in the end.
"No need, it's just a lost dog. If we don't take action, others won't be able to spare him."
Chu Lingyun smiled and shook his head. Saijo was going to be kept for trial. If he were to be dealt with like this, it would be an advantage for him.
Saijo will eventually accept his hanging.
"It's because you were generous and gave him an advantage."
Takemoto sighed. Although Saijo was already a former prime minister, it would be fine if he could arrest a former prime minister.
That would be the highlight of his life.
People from all walks of life are not surprised by Saijo's resignation. Since Saijo came to power, he has continued to do tricks, with few good things and many bad things. He thinks about how to deceive the people every day.
Everyone's expectations for Xiao Zhao are not high, as long as he doesn't behave like Saijo.
"Ishihara-kun, I highly recognize your ability. As long as you are willing, the post of Prime Minister is yours."
In Tokyo, Xiao Zhaozheng and Ishihara Nimaru were kneeling face to face. Xiao Zhao sent an invitation to Ishihara Nimaru, hoping that he could serve as Minister of War.
Ishihara Nimaru has a very high strategic vision, and the empire currently needs talents like him.
Ishihara, who has been suppressed by Saijo for a long time, can immediately become the land minister of the empire as long as he nods.
"Sir, I can be the Prime Minister, but I have a request." Ishihara Nimaru shook his head slightly.
"you say."
"Start peace talks with China immediately. You can give up Wuhan, even Nanjing, Shanghai, and Peking, leaving only Manchuria in exchange for peace with China."
Ishihara Nimaru said slowly, this coincided with Shigeto.
No wonder he can talk to heavy people.
However, Shigeto was more radical than him and simply gave up everything to keep the empire.
"Ishihara-kun, this is impossible. General Tian Jun is still fighting hard. They finally took Changsha. Too many people died. If I ask them to give up, they will not agree."
Xiao Zhao's face was ugly, he didn't expect Ishihara Nimaru to make such a request.
He had heard the theories of Ishihara Nimaru and others. In his opinion, the empire was far from reaching such a dangerous moment. After all, the empire still occupied most of China and Southeast Asia.
The battle with the United States was just a temporary defeat, and the Imperial Combined Fleet is still capable of fighting.
It is too early to think about making peace now.
"Sir, please choose another talented person."
Ishihara Nimaru sighed. Xiao Zhao still had unrealistic expectations and would plunge the empire into the abyss sooner or later. Since he disagreed with his suggestion, there was no need for him to join the cabinet.
"Ishihara-kun, I hope you can consider it carefully."
Xiao Zhao stopped Ishihara Nimaru who was about to leave. Ishihara paused for a moment, shook his head, and then left.
After failing to invite Ishihara, Xiao Zhao thought about asking Minai to come back and form a joint land and sea command with him, but was rejected again.
It's a mess right now, and Minet has long been disappointed and unwilling to get involved in politics again.
Xiao Zhao had no choice but to form a new cabinet according to his own ideas and explain to Yu Ren.
Tokyo, Saijo Residence.
This place is heavily guarded. Saijo has made a lot of money through Hayakawa Hei in recent years. When he became Prime Minister, he also attracted a group of subordinates who were willing to work for him.
Now he has thousands of guards to protect his safety.
After stepping down, Saijo never left the house, he didn't dare.
He was afraid that Toru Ishihara would attack him.
As for Tou Man, he has nothing to worry about. It is said that Tou Man is currently lying on the bed unable to get off the floor, and his consciousness is often blurred. He is too old and cannot hold on for long.
Thinking of this, Saijo cursed angrily.
Damn Touman, he actually handed over all the tens of thousands of ronin under his command to Ishihara Hiroshi. He is not dead yet, so he handed over power like this. Aren't you afraid that Ishihara Hiroshi will take the opportunity to deal with him?
Saijo wouldn't be able to bear it if so many ronin came to assassinate them one by one.
A person can fail a hundred times, but as long as he succeeds once, his life is gone.
For the sake of your own life, it is best not to go out.
Before, he disliked Tuhara for being timid and was so frightened by Touman that he turned into a turtle. Now he is even worse than Tuhara.
Saijo didn't know, he was just scaring himself.
Chu Lingyun didn't think about attacking him. Saijo was no longer a threat. Someone would deal with him next. As for the people who assassinated him before, they lost interest after he stepped down.
There may be people among the people who want him dead, but it is impossible to organize an effective assassination.
In early August, the 15th Army Corps, which had been on an expedition to India, finally returned to Burma, and the Japanese high-level officials were once again in an uproar.
Mutian led an expedition of 100,000 troops, but only less than 30,000 people returned, and the battle losses reached 75%.
In India, they did not suffer such big losses, and most of them were lost in the tropical rainforest on the road.
It can be said that the forest was full of corpses of Japanese soldiers.
Muta was urgently recalled to the country. When he returned to Tokyo, he argued everywhere that it was not his fault, but that the soldiers were disobedient, that the weather was bad, and that the British army was too cunning.
Anyway, everyone else is wrong, but he is right.
Such remarks shocked the base camp. Is this a senior officer of the empire?
No matter how Mutian argued, this defeat was an indisputable fact.
Other Japanese troops also suffered losses, but at least on the battlefield, it was better for him to leave most of the elite soldiers in the rain forest.
Saijo has already stepped down, otherwise this incident would be another painful blow to him.
In early August, Hengyang fell.
Tian Junliu's footsteps have not stopped. He has dispatched more than 400,000 troops for this battle, and is still increasing the number of troops. It is bound to open up the transportation line to Guangzhou in one go.
The Japanese army moved all the way south, threatening Guangxi.
The old man's indecisive temper showed up again.
This battle had been such a disastrous defeat, but he did not learn the lesson and still wanted to directly participate in commanding the battle, which disappointed many generals of the Fruit Army.
Time has entered September.
Chu Lingyun returned to Chongqing.
He has provided all the intelligence on the battlefield that he can provide. The role he can play next is not big, and it all depends on the battlefield performance of the officers and soldiers.
The Guo army was not as good as the Japanese army, but the difference at this time was definitely not as big as it was at the beginning.
After so many years of fighting, the elite veterans of the Japanese army are almost done fighting. They continue to recruit soldiers in the country, and many teenage child soldiers have been recruited by them to fight on the battlefield.
In terms of the combat quality of the soldiers alone, the Japanese army is not much better than the Guo army.
Even so, the Guo army was still unable to stop the Japanese attack. Chu Lingyun no longer had any hope of defeat. As long as the Guo party could hold on, they would be able to win.
"Ling Yun, our accounts will be paid back a lot this year."
Boss Dai was very happy to see Chu Lingyun. The loan sharks they lent the year before last were increasing more and more. Boss Dai was very keen on collecting debts.
This year we will return millions of dollars to the ocean.
After coming over, Boss Dai discovered that the money owed to him by the poor was not only not less, but also increased a lot. If this continues, they will be able to make a large amount of money every year in the future, and they will not be able to pay it back in this life.
"Boss, as long as you keep them, there will be a steady stream of wealth in the future."
Chu Lingyun smiled and nodded. He didn't care about the money. Boss Dai wanted it. The big head was with him. After Boss Dai asked for the money, Chu Lingyun sent the money to his hometown to let them pay back their debts.
The people settled down.
The more Boss Dai wants, the more hearts and minds they will gain.
"You are right. You are smart. A little food can leave you with endless wealth."
Boss Dai laughed loudly, Chu Lingyun's move was good, hundreds of thousands of mud-legged people were tied to death by them, and they will make money for them in the future.
They are dead, and their children will never be able to pay off their debts.
They are not their own tenants, but they are better than tenants. They have been working hard to make money for themselves for generations, and they don't have to worry about anything, let alone ask questions.
Chu Lingyun is indeed smart and ruthless. This method is good.
"Thank you for the compliment, boss."
Chu Lingyun lowered his head and smiled, but his heart was getting cold. After Boss Dai was finished, he would not ask for the money again.
He had no choice at the beginning. If he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to give food to those in urgent need of life-saving help. This is the tragedy of the times and the tragedy of the people.
"Ling Yun, it's not me asking you to come back this time, it's Ms. Song. I will take you there later."
After Boss Dai finished talking about his affairs, he remembered the reason why he asked Chu Lingyun to come back.
Ms. Song is no longer satisfied with the 30,000 pills per year and wants to order more new medicines.
However, the distribution of new drugs was decided by Chu Lingyun, and even she had no right to interfere.
The Americans are also eyeing Chu Lingyun's pharmaceutical factory. They will take away the medicines produced first. After the Normandy landing, the number of new medicines needed by the United States increased sharply. They did not have enough for themselves, and they wanted to completely remove China's production.
Fortunately, they couldn't find Chu Lingyun, so when they had no other choice, they asked the military generals to spread out some.
What is given out is money.
The ex-factory price of new medicines has been reduced, but the price on the black market is still very high. You can make a lot more money by taking one more medicine, which is definitely much more expensive than gold.
"Yes, boss."
Chu Lingyun responded, new drug technology made another breakthrough, and production increased significantly.
This thing is like doing a math problem. If you find the right method, you can complete it step by step. Nowadays, the output of new drugs by a single pharmaceutical company has reached 100,000.
According to Liu Chengzhu's report, there has been progress in the United States, and the monthly output will soon reach 500,000, or even millions.
The prices of new drugs will continue to drop next year.
After the war, the prices of these new drugs will return to civilian prices, benefiting more people. However, domestic prices will still be high, and the prices of new drugs will not really come down in places where there is war.
Especially this new life-saving drug.
Boss Dai and Chu Lingyun quickly arrived at the old man's camp. The old man was not there and was busy.
Several cities in Guangxi were besieged by the Japanese army. He had no time to pay attention to such trivial matters now. The Japanese would definitely achieve their strategic goals this time. They had opened up the road from Northeast China to Nanyang.
In the future, there will be no need to use warships to transport soldiers. Trains can take people directly to Guangzhou and then out to sea.
The Kwantung Army has hundreds of thousands of troops and can provide good support to Nanyang.
However, the Kwantung Army is no longer the original elite. They have lived in the Northeast for many years, and most of the original veterans are old and cannot continue to fight on the battlefield.
The new soldiers are mostly second-generation soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is not very good.
The Japanese military, however, were very optimistic about the Kwantung Army, including Tian Shunliu, who believed that as long as the Japanese army in China could provide sufficient support to Nanyang, they could hold on to their territory even if the navy failed.
In the general understanding of the Japanese, the armies of Britain, the United States and other countries are not very good and cannot compare with them at all.
These people failed to recognize the situation clearly. The pattern of war has already undergone tremendous changes. Without sea control and air control, how long can the army defend it only by relying on the army?
There are also people among the Japanese who are smart and can see the situation clearly, such as Ishihara Nimaru. He understands that any deployment Japan makes now is just a desperate struggle.
Once the empire itself is attacked, the direction of the war will change, and they will be the ones struggling to support it.
"Ling Yun is here."
Ms. Song personally received Chu Lingyun. She was wearing a cheongsam and looked elegant.
The Song family can be said to be the most successful family in this era, and few women in China can compare with them.
It's a pity that even if they are from the same mother, they have different personalities.
"Make tea."
Ms. Song asked the people around her to make tea, while she warmly received Chu Lingyun and asked several questions.
"Ling Yun, there are some things I shouldn't say, but since the output of your pharmaceutical factory has increased, shouldn't you also provide me with the increased output? Now half of the medicines in Chen Mutu's hands have been taken away by the Americans. If they all
In my hands, at least I can keep these medicines and prevent them from being taken away by the Americans."
"You also know the situation now. In fact, I have already said how to distribute it. I have already obtained benefits for everyone in the beginning."
Chu Lingyun smiled slightly, thinking that the production volume of the new drug would be based on the original production volume. Her wishful thinking was indeed good.
It's a pity that Chu Lingyun didn't push up at all. I said it didn't matter and kicked the ball over.
The distribution plan had been decided long ago. Initially, the monthly output was 10,000 pieces, and she would be given 30,000.
According to this ratio, he needs to be given 300,000 tubes every year now.
Fortunately, Chu Lingyun was cautious at first and never mentioned that it would be given to her according to the output, which made her suffer a dumb loss.
"I know that I will go to the Americans and say, you just need to give me these new drugs, and I will distribute them."
Ms. Song responded with a smile. She had done her homework before Chu Lingyun came. The Americans meant that the pharmaceutical factory belonged to Chu Lingyun and Chu Lingyun had to relent.
She really couldn't understand why Americans cared so much about such a little spy.
Well, Chu Lingyun is actually a great spy.
But agents are agents, they are their retainers, and they must obey their orders.
"What did General Chen and the others say?"
Chu Lingyun did not agree and changed the subject again, letting her distribute it all. The soldiers in the army should not get any more new medicine.
Fortunately, from the very beginning, Chu Lingyun was not looking for a general to cooperate, but a group of them. With so many senior officers, and they were all commanders leading troops, even if the old man wanted to do something, he had to think carefully about it.
"They have no problem with it."
Ms. Song smiled cheerfully, and Chu Lingyun's eyes flashed, and she nodded with a smile: "Okay, after I go back and confirm with General Chen and others, I will do what you said."
Ms. Song's expression froze.
Her little trick couldn't fool Chu Lingyun, so she wanted to get him to let go first. Once he, the owner of the pharmaceutical factory, agreed, Chen Mutu and the others would not be able to compete head-on with Ms. Song.
"Cunning little fox."
After Chu Lingyun left, Ms. Song couldn't help but cursed secretly. She only thought that she got too few new medicines and made a lot of money. However, she never thought that if it weren't for her identity, she wouldn't even have one new medicine.
Can't get it.
What was the result when she asked an American to get medicine?
After spending a lot of money, I finally gave her a hundred.
She didn't use any of the 30,000 new medicines on the soldiers. Most of them were sold by her to make money. Although Chen Tumu and the others also made money, at least a considerable part was used on the officers and soldiers.
They are protecting their country.
If there is medicine, we cannot let them die because they cannot get timely treatment. This is Chu Lingyun's attitude.
Chu Lingyun was not fooled and didn't even relent to give her more.
She couldn't force Chu Lingyun.
She knew everything about the negotiation process between Chu Lingyun and the Americans. It could be said that she watched Chu Lingyun negotiate. Chu Lingyun was so strong when facing the Americans, let alone them.
Chongqing suburbs.
Chu Yuanchen and He Wanrong are teaching children.
The bombing in Japan has decreased a lot now, and many children have returned to the classroom. There are still 400 children in the two schools here.
Soon they will leave here and all the children will be handed over to others.
It has been more than seven years since Smith assisted this school. They have been here for these seven years and have almost never left.
Chu Yuanchen went out and entered the city several times, while He Wanrong went to the city only a handful of times.
"get out of class is over."
He Wanrong packed up her books and announced that get out of class was over. She was in a girls' school and she was going to a boys' school after school.
A few days ago, my son sent someone to inform them that the school in the United States was almost completed and ready to enroll students. They were about to prepare to leave for the United States.
There are specialized Chinese schools in the United States, which are somewhat similar to those in China, but they don’t charge no tuition fees.
There is tuition fee, but scholarships will be awarded based on study status.
As long as your academic performance is good, the scholarship can completely earn back your tuition fees.
The damn Chinese Exclusion Act was finally canceled last year. Without this restrictive act on Chinese people, life for the Chinese in the United States would be much easier.
However, they still suffered discrimination.
The new school is located in California, where Smith is the governor, and many congressmen are from Chu Lingyun, so it can give parents the greatest safety guarantee.
As for the future, we will talk about it later. Anyway, they must not be allowed to stay in the country in the past few years.
With their temperaments, something is bound to happen.
The school will initially enroll 800 students, mainly primary school students, and will recruit new students every year. In the future, it will also open a middle school department.
The number of students in the future will be at least several thousand.
Such a school is very expensive. For the safety of his parents, Chu Lingyun will run it no matter how much it costs, not to mention that it can really help Chinese children in the United States.
The new principal here in Chongqing has also been selected. He is a teacher who has been following Chu Yuanchen and his wife and has taken root here.
The teacher is a woman and someone who has dedicated her life to her children.
Both Chu Yuanchen and He Wanrong were very relieved that the school was left to her, and Chu Lingyun would ask Ran Wu to check on the situation regularly.
This time it was Ran Wu who came to inform his parents.
Compared with others, Feng Yong and Ran Wuba reassured Chu Lingyun the most. They did not belong to any organization and completely obeyed Chu Lingyun's orders. This was better than Ni Loach and the others.
After all, Loach and the others are members of the Fruit Party, and their ranks are not low.
"mom."
As soon as He Wanrong left school, she saw her son standing in front of the car waiting for her. A smile immediately appeared on He Wanrong's face.
He Wanrong, who is already fifty years old, cannot help but show some vicissitudes of life on her face.
She was a little better. Chu Yuanchen had a lot more gray hair. Years of fatigue had accelerated his aging.
"Ling Yun is back."
He Wanrong said hello to her son, and suddenly felt a little reluctant to leave.
She understood that her son's return this time was to send them to the United States.
The children in the United States cannot be delayed either. If they don't go, Smith won't start school. Smith doesn't believe the people there.
The school invests hundreds of thousands of dollars every year, but if someone lines their pockets, it will be the children who lose.
Not only must they study well, but they must also eat well in school.
they must go
"Mom, let's go back."
Chu Lingyun smiled and took her mother to the car. Her younger sister was still at school and could not come back this time. After her parents left, her younger sister would have to live alone.
But with his care, there won't be much of a safety problem.
"go back."
Back home, Chu Lingyun took out the pork he had brought, and He Wanrong fried a plate of fragrant braised pork. The family's mouths were full of oil after eating.
The date to go to the United States has been set, and I will leave tomorrow. Now during the war, it is not easy to leave, but this cannot be difficult for Chu Lingyun.
If you change the route, you can still reach the United States.
"Ling Yun, the school here in Chongqing won't stop, right?"
After eating, Chu Yuanchen asked again worriedly, they want schools in the United States, and they want schools here too. They have such a character, as long as it is good for the children, they don't want to stop.
"Don't worry, we will never stop. I will ask you to send a telegram to you in the next three months, and you will know."
Chu Lingyun smiled, not only would Chongqin's school not stop, but it would also be expanded in the future.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, there was no need to worry about Japanese bombing, and the school could be expanded in size.
At that time, more children can come to school.
Parents have put so much effort into these two schools, and Chu Lingyun will not allow them to stop.
Especially girls' schools. There are very few girls' schools in China today. The existence of girls' schools can allow more girls to receive education, read and write, and become women in the new era.
After the founding of New China, they will be the pillars of building the motherland.
For China, there is always a lack of knowledge. Chu Lingyun will not be stingy with the money that can help more people in education.
Besides, he has a lot of money now, so it won't cost much to build a school.
"Okay, it doesn't have to be once every three months, just once a year, or once every two years. Telegrams are too expensive, as long as we know there's nothing wrong here."
Chu Yuanchen was reluctant to spend money on a transoceanic telegram. Sending a transoceanic telegram cost a lot of money. With the money saved, he could buy a lot of paper, pens and stationery for his children.
The old couple has saved a lifetime and cannot afford to waste it.
"Don't worry, leave it to me and Xiaoya to keep an eye on it. I'll make sure nothing happens."
Chu Lingyun comforted her father's heart. If there were not more children who needed them, it would be impossible for them to leave Chongqing given their temperament.
Just like when they left Ningcheng, they never thought about themselves, all they thought about were these children who wanted to study.
Chu Yuanchen was very relieved about his son.
Although he didn't know much about what his son did, he understood that what his son did was a big thing and he was doing it for the country and the people.
He is a teacher who only knows how to teach and nothing else.
If his son is promising, what he can do is not hold him back.
"boss."
The next day, Feng Yong brought four people to the school. His parents were leaving, and Feng Yong and the other five were responsible for escorting them to the United States.
With Feng Yong and five others here, the safety of his parents has been guaranteed.
If they can't protect their parents, it's useless no matter how many people they bring.
"Pay attention to safety on the road and report General Mike's name promptly if anything happens."
Chu Lingyun told Feng Yong that when encountering the Allied forces, report Mike's name. If he encounters the Japanese, immediately report the name of Hiroshi Ishihara.
No matter which one, it can ensure their smooth flow.
The main purpose of this journey is to avoid Japanese people. It is unlikely that you will encounter Japanese people. Mike's name is particularly critical.
In particular, they are going to Australia, where they will then transfer to the United States.
Over there, General Mike's name is more popular than that of the President of the United States.
"yes."
Feng Yong firmly remembered his boss's arrangement and started the cars. His parents took another look at the place where they had lived for more than seven years and reluctantly got in the car.
This time they are not driving like before. This time they are going abroad, to the United States thousands of miles away. No one knows whether they will come back in this life.
The son didn't get married and the daughter was still young, so they left like this, which made me feel really sad.
It can also be seen from this point that the moral character of the couple is beyond words. In order for more Chinese children to receive better lessons, they are willing to give up their small family.
I only hope that some of these children can return to China in the future and help the country's construction.
"Dad, Mom."
At the pier, Chu Ya had been waiting for a long time. When she saw her parents, she immediately rushed over and cried.
Originally, Chu Lingyun didn't plan to let Chu Ya come to see him off, but Chu Ya couldn't help it. She didn't have to go back, but she had to come over when she was in the city.
Chu Yaxu is twenty years old and is an adult.
"Xiaoya, you should listen to your brother and study hard in the future. I know you don't want to go to the countryside. When you graduate and become a teacher in the city, you must teach and educate people."
He Wanrong's eyes were red and she hugged her daughter reluctant to let go.
Chu Ya cried even harder, and Chu Lingyun felt uncomfortable.
But for the safety of her parents, they must be allowed to leave. What's more, Chu Ya's situation is different. If her identity is revealed, her parents will be implicated.
With Chu Lingyun's connections, he can naturally save her life, but that's about it.
Now that his parents are abroad, if something happens to Chu Ya in the future, he will send Chu Ya out. Not only will he be absolutely safe in the United States, but at least his life will be safe.
After Feng Yong and the other five sent them there, two of them had to stay there to accept Liu Chengzhu's command and continue to protect their parents.
The reason for keeping two people is for the convenience of their parents. Liu Chengzhu has bodyguards there, but most of them are Americans. It would be more convenient for his parents to have more Chinese people.
After seeing her parents off, Chu Lingyun felt a lot more relaxed.
"Ling Yun, thank you very much."
In Chongqing, Chen Mutu specially invited Chu Lingyun to dinner. Ms. Song wanted the new medicine in their hands, but Chu Lingyun blocked her. They already knew about this.
Chu Lingyun is very interesting. This is a lot of pressure. After all, Ms. Song is not an ordinary person.
"General Chen, you and I don't need to be so polite. After the Japanese attack this time, the follow-up strength is insufficient. You must hold on well and don't be fooled by them."
The Japanese are now strong on the outside and working hard on the inside. They look like they are bound to conquer Chongqing, which frightened the old man and gave him the idea of moving the capital.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no good place to retreat to, the old man would really dare to do this.
Xi'an is good, but the Japanese have always been eyeing Tongguan.
Once Tongguan is breached by the Japanese, Xi'an will become undefendable and it will only be a matter of time before it is breached by the Japanese.
Simply put, Xi'an is not as safe as Chongqing.
With the persuasion of others, the old man could only give up the idea of moving the capital and stay in Chongqing with peace of mind.
"I understand, don't worry, but this battle cannot be ended in one word."
Chen Mutu poured himself a glass of wine and said nothing else. He really didn't expect that Wending would do so poorly this time, and he didn't look like a flying general at all.
Losing 38 cities in 37 days is the greatest shame in life.
This failure also cast a shadow on many Chinese people.
Except for Chu Lingyun, no one knows when they can defeat Japan, or whether they can defeat Japan and avoid being subjugated slaves.
Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains have been trampled and ravaged by the Japanese, and the Fruit Party has become more and more disappointing every time.
Losing troops and generals, and retreating steadily.
Internally, they are extremely tough, corrupt, and commit all kinds of evil. How can you trust such a corrupt party?
The failure of the Guo Party was not accidental, but inevitable.
"Don't worry, the Japanese are aggressive. They suffered heavy losses in this battle and are no longer able to launch another major war. For at least half a year, they can only defend and cannot advance."
Chu Lingyun smiled, not to comfort Chen Mutu.
This time, Japan mobilized more than 500,000 people and used all its available forces to open up this channel.
Tian Junliu kept shouting that no matter what the cost, in fact it was true.
Especially in the Battle of Hengyang, the Japanese 68th Division and 116th Division that participated in the battle were reduced by more than 60% and were almost disabled.
Now Tian Junliu is concentrating his efforts to attack Guangxi, but he is at the end of his battle.
Chu Lingyun knows their logistical situation best. There is insufficient food, and they are now starting to raise food on the spot. They will not be able to hold on for too long if this continues.
"Don't say half a year, even if you give us a year, what's the use?"
Chen Mutu smiled bitterly, Chu Lingyun said nothing, of course it would be useful for one year, and Japan surrendered after one year.
However, this also shows how pessimistic the Chinese people are. Even people like Chen Mutu can't see any hope, let alone others.
"Don't just look at us. We are not fighting the war alone. The Allies continue to win in Europe. Once Germany falls, how long can Japan hold on?"
"Today, the Japanese navy does not have much strength left. As long as the United States completely defeats their navy, Japan will be struggling. They are so anxious because they do not want American planes to use Chinese bases to bomb their homeland. It can also be seen from this,
Japan has never had a good time."
Chu Lingyun smiled and replied that Chen Mutu was not an ordinary person, so he must be given enough hope.
Thank you to the leader Pipi Tu for two rewards of 1,000 starting coins, thank you to the First Guards Tank Brigade for another 500 starting coins reward, and thank you to Ye Biling, Sunshine and Xiaoyu for each giving 100 starting coins.
