Feng Xiaoming couldn't help but asked curiously: "Sir, we have all heard the name of this aircraft. It is said that it is the best fighter jet in Japan at present, right?"
"That's right!" Zheng Shaoyu nodded, "When I was serving in the Central Air Force, I fought against them before. Captain Gao was killed after being attacked by this kind of aircraft!" At this point, Zheng Shaoyu's tone was full of excitement.
A deep hatred.
"Sir, how does the Wildcat fighter we are currently equipped compare with the Type 96 fighter?" At this moment, Feng Xiaoming kept asking like a curious baby.
"That's a good question!" Zheng Shaoyu nodded, "The Wildcat fighter is the most advanced fighter currently equipped by our army. Speaking of which, its speed is still much slower than the Japanese Type 96 fighter. But the Wildcat fighter also has
Its strengths, such as its six 12.7 machine guns, are much better than the Japanese's two weird 7.7 mm caliber Type 97 machine guns.
And the biggest feature of the Wildcat fighter is its sturdiness, which is unusually strong. Once, a Japanese Type 96 carrier-based aircraft bit our Wildcat fighter from behind, but their bullets had no way to hit the Wildcat fighter.
The lying bullets have no effect on Wildcat fighter jets. Of course, you can’t risk your own life for the experiment even if I say this.”
"Hahaha……"
Hearing this, all the pilots laughed...
While Zheng Shaoyu was explaining the characteristics of Japanese aircraft to the new pilots, Su Rui was also receiving a guest from a foreign country.
"General Su, according to intelligence, the main fighter aircraft you are equipping is our country's current naval carrier-based F4F Wildcat fighter, and has achieved excellent results. However, as far as I know, we have never exported it to you.
This type of fighter aircraft, so our country needs you to give our government an explanation as to why our country’s fighters will appear in your country’s air force sequence?”
A middle-aged man in his forties with gray hair, a pair of turquoise eyes, a high nose bridge, and white skin is sitting in the reception area of Su Rui's office at the Maoming Security Headquarters, with bright eyes.
His eyes were looking directly at Suri in front of him.
Suri was unmoved. He slowly put down the teacup in his hand and said slowly: "Mr. Hurley, are you accusing me?"
"No, this is not an accusation, but a protest!" President Roosevelt's personal agent, who had a big beard on his lips, looked at the young Chinese general in front of him with stern eyes and said in a stern tone: "
I have to solemnly warn you that you have equipped our country's fighter aircraft without the authorization and permission of our government. This is a sign of disrespect for our country's property rights. You should stop this behavior immediately and will provide you with
The individual or group that owns this kind of fighter jet must explain clearly to our government."
It turned out that the gray-haired, blue-eyed foreigner sitting in Suri's office was Colonel Hurley, then the military attache of the U.S. Embassy in China.
As the fame of the 300 Army grew, Suri's name gradually spread to the eyes of Western governments. Due to the protests of the Japanese government, the Wildcat fighter jets equipped by the 300 Army also attracted the attention of the U.S. government.
At first, the U.S. government thought that Grumman, which produced this type of fighter jet, was selling this type of fighter jet to the Chinese government privately. However, after investigation, it was discovered that Grumman had not sold even a single rivet to the Chinese government. Soon after,
The U.S. government also investigated the U.S. Navy and found that not a few Wildcat fighters equipped by the U.S. Navy are still in service on U.S. aircraft carriers.
This has aroused the curiosity and vigilance of the U.S. government. Is there another force and government secretly producing active fighter jets in the United States? The technical barriers in this era are not as strict as in later generations, and the production of fighter jets is not as difficult as in later generations.
It's precise and not that difficult. It's not impossible for a country with a certain industrial base to secretly produce another country's fighter jets.
However, after a long investigation, the U.S. government was unable to find out which country was secretly producing its own country's current models.
Since we can't find out which country is secretly producing Wildcat fighter jets, we can only ask its purchaser. Hurley is the U.S. Attaché to China and also the personal assistant to U.S. President Roosevelt. After receiving this order from Washington, Hurley
, he rushed directly from Chongqing to Maoming to find Su Rui.
Facing this Yankee with his head held high and holding a pipe, Su Rui was filled with anger. This Yankee had his nostrils turned up in the sky, and as soon as he came he acted like a superior was asking a subordinate.
It also made Suri extremely disgusted.
Su Rui said coldly: "Mr. Hurley, I think your question is very baffling. First, this fighter is not produced by us. I am just a customer, a customer who spent money. As for
I don't care who produced this fighter, and don't tell me that it is your country's active fighter and cannot be used without authorization. I spent money, so I have a reason to use it.
It's normal. As for whether he stole your country's technology, I don't care, or that should be something your country should investigate."
"Um!"
Hurley's eyes suddenly became stern, and he immediately glanced at Suri. For Hurley, no one in China has dared to talk to him like this for a long time since he served as the U.S. military attache in China.
, let alone a lieutenant general like Su Rui, even Chairman Chiang had to be polite when meeting him. Now when he suddenly heard that a lieutenant general dared to talk to him like this, he immediately felt that his dignity had been challenged.
"General Su, you must know that I am speaking to you on behalf of the great United States of America. Do you know that your answer may cause turmoil in the relationship between the two countries?"
Seeing Hurley's sharp eyes and threatening words, Suri burst out laughing. "Brother, what age are we in these days? Do you think you're a cool guy who stares at someone's pregnancy? Do you want to kill someone with your eyes?"
Thinking of this, Su Rui's eyes showed disdain.
"Colonel Hurley, you and I are both soldiers, so don't scare me with that trick. I won't accept that trick. If your country really has the ability, go directly to the thief who stole your technology."
, don’t take your anger out on me. And don’t say nonsense that will affect the relationship between our two countries. Do China and the United States still have relations now? If I remember correctly, the United States is selling large quantities of steel to Japan every year.
Don’t you know that these steels eventually turned into bombs and bullets and landed on our land? If you think about it this way, does your country also owe our people an explanation?”
Hurley's face turned blue and white, and he said angrily: "You...you are making trouble unreasonably! Have you stolen our things, or are we wrong?"
Su Rui sneered: "Then you should also go find the person who stole your things? Colonel Hurley doesn't think it's us China that steals and produces your country's aircraft, right?"
"this……"
Hurley couldn't help but was speechless for a moment. At this time, the whole world knew that China's industrial capabilities were weak. Not to mention aircraft, even artillery shells with a caliber of 75 or above had to be imported. They had to steal and produce American aircraft.
I'm afraid even the pigs would laugh when they hear the accusation of being placed on the head of the Chinese government.
Hurley took a deep breath and said, "Well, we don't have to hold you accountable for equipping our country's fighter jets without our country's permission, but you have to tell us who sold this aircraft, right?"
Having said this, Hurley's eyes were fixed on Suri's face.
But Suri still shook his head: "Mr. Hurley, I'm sorry, we don't know the real information about this seller. I only know that they are an arms export company, and their name is Ocean Company. I don't know other specific things."
knew."
Hurley's brows furrowed, and he finally realized that what Suri said was all nonsense. He had never heard of the Ocean Company, and he didn't even know a person's name. How was he going to look it up?
"General Su, can you be more specific? You didn't say the name of the person you were in contact with, the size of their company, or where the company is located."
Suri smiled and shook his head, "I don't know about that. Besides, we only care about the goods we want. As for the location of the seller or the distribution of their personnel, do I need to care?"
Seeing Su Rui being so uncooperative, Hurley became increasingly angry. He said in a deep voice: "General Su, you must be responsible for what you say!"
Suri was also furious. He stood up and said coldly, "Colonel Hurley, of course I can take responsibility for what I said. You can truthfully report what I said to your government. And I can also tell you clearly.
You, I bought the thing and I used it. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can come to me directly and I will take care of it!"
Su Rui's anger confused Hurley. The General Su in front of him did not look like a lieutenant general. He shouted and killed at every turn, just like a gangster boss on the streets of New York.
Only then did Hurley realize that the man standing in front of him was a general with great military exploits. It was he who led his troops to victory again and again in battles with the Japanese. And his fighter planes
It has also spread to Europe, and the name "Poison Gas General" is not for nothing.
Westerners are like this. They respect the strong and fear their strength. After seeing signs that Su Rui was angry again, Hurley softened. He frowned and said: "General Su, I didn't mean to offend you.
But our government is very concerned about the loss of secrets, so I was entrusted by President Roosevelt to ask you. Please understand my feelings."
After listening to Hurley's words, Suri's face became less ugly. He sat down again and was about to speak, when suddenly he heard another air raid siren in the distance. This sound made Hurley
