Vladivostok, the newly restored port. As an excellent ice-free port, Vladivostok’s geographical location is very important. Large warships and cargo ships of 100,000 tons can be docked here. After the signing of the unequal Sino-Russian Aihui Treaty, the Czar couldn't wait to reach out to this rich port and renamed it Vladivostok, which means "Control the East", and took the opportunity to More than 400,000 square kilometers of land in Jilin Province were allocated to Vladivostok as the center. After the Russian Revolution, it gradually developed into a coastal city with a population of hundreds of thousands and built a military port.
After Stalin came to power, he did not abide by the loophole-laden treaty issued by his predecessor. Instead, he took the opportunity to massacre, drive out Han, Manchu and Korean people, and stipulated that non-Russians were not allowed to live in the country. Su Tong used a handful of poison gas to poison the place. After all the troubles were cleared, Xi Hangan, the Secretary-General of the Chahar Provincial Government, was ordered to seize the time to immigrate here. However, the time is still short, and there is still no popularity here. Most of the people coming and going on the street are Soldiers and workers in military uniforms.
Today, Lieutenant General Sun Liren, the newly appointed commander of the Vladivostok Group Army, accompanied several military officers to the newly repaired dock and collectively looked into the distance.
Well, the clothes worn by these officers are somewhat different from Sun Liren. Sun Liren wears the most common dark green army uniform, while these naval officers wear pure white navy uniforms. Uniforms of this color are being produced in Later, I saw few people wearing them in Chahar, but today it is rare to see them.
The leader was a soldier who was about fifty years old and wore the rank of general. He stood in the middle of the team, holding a telescope tightly in his hand. His expression was very excited, and he was whispering something in a low voice. Mumbling something, he suddenly turned back to Sun Liren and asked, "Fumin, didn't you say they would be back at noon? Why are they still not here at almost eleven o'clock?"
Sun Liren accompanied him respectfully. Hearing this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Fu, I really don't know much about this, but according to the time, it should be here soon."
After finishing speaking, Sun Liren wiped his forehead with his hand, and secretly complained in his heart, "My Chief Su, why did you invite this man here? He is not easy to take care of."
Well, the name of the first-level admiral next to me, who is very powerful and is called "Master" by ruthless people like Sun Liren, is from Fujian. He is now a first-level admiral of the National Congress Party. He can be said to be the current It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one person in the Chinese navy. In the naval system, his disciples and disciples can be said to be all over the world, and he is the only one who can compete with Jiang Baili's army disciples and disciples all over the world.
Since Chahar has established a navy, he must find someone who understands the navy to manage it. Such talents are not as easy to find as army generals. The training of a naval general requires years of training and accumulation. Su Tong thought about it. It was only here that he decided to poach this naval general from the National Congress Party. Chief Su moved his little hoe very fast, and finally in August, he poached Chen Shaokuan, who had just returned from a naval inspection in Europe after hearing the news, to the police. Hal.
Today, he brought several naval officers here to welcome Long Yu and many other students who had returned from Germany, as well as the four ocean-going submarines purchased from Germany.
The port of Vladivostok in winter was calm and quiet. Suddenly, a few small black dots flashed in the east, with several white wave wakes behind them. They were heading towards the port quickly.
"Here they come, they come here," a colonel officer shouted loudly, unable to hide the excitement in his voice. The Chinese Navy has always been the weakness of the Chinese armed forces since the Beiyang Navy. From the Beiyang period to
This was not the case in the Republic of China. The pain of having no defense against the sea has always been deeply lingering in the psychology of all Chinese soldiers. Although there are only four UIXB-type ocean-going submarines today, they believe that this is just the beginning. In the future, they will definitely drive their own
The warships braved the wind and waves on the thousands of miles of sea.
Time seemed to pass very quickly or very slowly, but no matter what, four ocean-going submarines like black swords slowly docked at the dock. The hatches opened, and rows of people walked out of them.
The officers in Chahar Navy uniforms lined up on the bridge one after another. They slowly walked down the gangway. The leader was a lieutenant colonel officer. He walked up to Chen Shaokuan and saluted solemnly and reported loudly.
"Reporting to the commander, Long Yu, captain of the 1st Naval Submarine Battalion of the Seventh Theater of the National Government, and his disciples were ordered to return home after completing their studies. In addition, they were ordered by the commander of the theater, Admiral Su Tong, to bring back four German-made UIXB ocean-going submarines.
country, please review”
"take a break"
Chen Shaokuan also returned a standard military salute. Looking at the four large ocean-going submarines with ferocious faces not far away, he felt excited in his heart. With these four most sharp underwater assassins of this era, Chen Shaokuan would be able to fight again.
He is no longer a polished commander. When facing the fierce Japanese navy, the Chinese will no longer be lambs who have no power to fight back and are slaughtered by others.
"Brothers, please allow me to call you this. You have returned to China after studying, and you have traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to bring back four ocean-going submarines. You can imagine the hardships on the road. I, Chen Shaokuan, thank you on behalf of the Chinese Navy."
Long Yu returned the gift expressionlessly, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. The risks he encountered on the way back home could not be described with the word "hardship", nor could it be described as "a narrow escape". However, on this journey,
The hardships have also tempered the will and spirit of these students, and these students will inevitably become the pillars of the Chinese Navy in the future.
Future generations should also remember this day. On January 1, 1938, the Chinese Navy Submarine Group was officially established. It marked that the Chinese Navy finally took the first step to rebuild the navy in the throes of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1891.
It was already midnight when Su Tong received the news that Longyu had arrived in Vladivostok. At this time, he was in his office holding the book "The Chrysanthemum and the Knife" that he wanted to help Alice publish. This would make him famous both domestically and internationally.
This is a good opportunity to get rid of the image of a warrior. Su Tong knows very well that as the leader of a place or a political power, it is not enough to give people the impression of an iron-blooded general. Since ancient times, which leader is not a man of literary and military ability?
Even if you are not, you should forget to put gold on your face. Now that you have such a good opportunity to put on a scholar's coat, if you don't seize it quickly, you can only say that you are too stupid.
"Report"
"Come in"
Tieniu walked in and said solemnly: "Sir Tang, please see me."
"Oh, why is Tang Shengzhi here? Are there any changes in Nanjing?" Su Tong muttered in confusion.
Since he arrived in Nanjing, Su Tong has asked him to manage the public security in Nanjing. Tang Shengzhi has been classified as a marginal figure by himself. Su Tong has never had a good impression of such ambitious and talented people. But Tang Shengzhi is still quite fond of him.
He was smart and knew that he had no foundation in Nanjing and no military power in his hands. However, he stayed in Nanjing and did his job. This was the first time he took the initiative to come to Su Tong.
After arriving at the small living room outside, Tang Shengzhi had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Su Tong coming, Tang Shengzhi stood up quickly: "Sir Su, I did not mean to disturb you because of my humble position, but because of the serious security situation in Nanjing, we have to
I took the liberty of coming to disturb you late at night.”
"Haha, brother Meng Xiao, you don't have to be so polite. Although you and I are superiors and subordinates, privately you and I are senior brothers. To be honest, Mr. Dan Ning is my adoptive father. I see that you are my senior brother as a backup.
I want to salute you when you meet me." Su Tong said with a smile.
Chinese officialdom emphasizes that people are carried in sedan chairs. Regardless of whether you like this person or not, you must do enough on the surface. Giving face to others is giving face to yourself. Su Tong certainly knows this truth. Since Tang Shengzhi treats him
To show obedience to his arrangements, you and he must do enough to show off, so as not to be branded as an arrogant and rude person.
Sure enough, after listening to Su Tong's words, Tang Shengzhi's initial resistance to being seized of power and sent to his wife was relieved a lot, and he comforted himself: "It's not a shame to be kidnapped by Su Tong. Since ancient times, teachers' orders cannot be violated. Su Tong is his teacher's adopted son.
, that is, my junior brother, and what he means is what the teacher means. If the teacher kidnaps him, no one else can say anything."
Although Tang Shengzhi has many shortcomings, one thing is rare, that is, he particularly respects his teachers, which is extremely rare in later generations.
"Then I'll call you Jianming without any courtesy." Tang Shengzhi also knew how to take advantage of the situation, and he really just called you "Jianming, in recent days you and our police station have discovered that Japanese agents are in Nanjing."
The activity is particularly intense. Today we captured a Han fighter who worked for the Japanese. I heard that they are planning an assassination incident. We don’t know who the target is yet, but "
Tang Shengzhi said nothing at this point and just looked at Su Tong in silence.
Su Tong understood, however, that in Nanjing, who else could the Japanese who had been lurking for a long time take the risk of being exposed to assassinate him? As long as he died, those proud soldiers of the National Congress Party outside Nanjing would be killed.
No one can suppress it anymore, chaos will definitely break out, Nanjing will definitely fall, and what will happen to the huge power and troops in the four provinces of Chahar? What will happen to the nearly one million troops under his command and the huge army?
Everyone would be jealous of Jiye. If he dies, China will be in chaos.
The more Su Tong thought about it, the more frightened he became. He never thought that he would become an indispensable figure in the country. The Japanese had a good plan this time.
Su Tong stood up suddenly: "If you have a good day, just come here. If you have any tricks, please follow me."
