Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Huang He's current lack of composure made Lao Dai, who was secretly observing from the side, extremely happy, and even felt like he was winning back a victory through the Lend-Lease Act.

This new friend I made has many advantages.

Not only is he well-informed, he is also a highly educated scientific researcher. At the same time, he has also made achievements in diplomacy, governance, etc., and is quite like a hexagonal warrior.

If you want to make the other person feel embarrassed while chatting, it is simply more difficult than reaching the sky.

The most irritating thing is that this guy has a very bad personality when dealing with him.

Others prefer to slap people in the face, but he likes to show his big breasts close to his face the most, and he will come up with something new every time they meet.

In a sense, this is even more annoying than a British guy flashing the reverse V sign.

Can you blame yourself for surrendering? At that time, he was just a small brigadier general. He basically had no say in the army, and he did not even have the power to lead the armored troops to take the initiative in offensive.

Every wrong has its owner, and every debt has its owner. You can go to whoever signed the name in Foch's carriage. It's no big deal that you keep holding on to me.

Thinking of this, Lao Dai joked in a slightly satisfied tone:

"Mr. Huang, please calm down first and quickly wipe the saliva from the corner of your mouth."

"Does the mere navy make you so excited? If it doesn't work out, you can go to North Africa with me in two days, and I'll have someone free up the position of Governor of Algeria for you."

"When the time comes, get on whichever of our Free French warships you want."

Facing his friend's "ridicule", Huang He waved his hand casually.

As a time traveler who came back in later generations, he has always been interested in things related to the navy, so he was fascinated when he just saw the Lend-Lease bill between the two parties.

Nothing else, just because the coastline of the motherland is too long, and it is urgent to establish a systematic and professional navy.

In later generations, the helplessness of land guns on ships, the pain of having no defense at sea, and the memory that the naval commander had to borrow a boat from local fishermen to inspect the island, should always remain in his heart.

Of course, Huang He has always been a person who keeps his mouth shut. Looking at his French friend who looked proud, he couldn't help but complain:

"Old Dai, today I finally learned what it means to be shameless and invincible. Just in terms of your ability to eat soft food and eat hard, you can definitely be ranked among the top five in the world."

"You and the Viet Minh definitely took advantage of this Lend-Lease Act. Let's not talk about the advisory group and equipment prices. Just the air routes in the agreement will consume countless manpower and material resources."

"What's more, you Free France only have a few warships now, and the Bane and Richelieu are not in your battle order. From my point of view, you came to the Republic of China with nothing."

As soon as these words came out, Lao Dai was immediately embarrassed and ashamed.

From his perspective, Desan is currently carrying a thunderous force on the eastern front of Europe and piercing Mao Zi's heart. If General Dong hadn't taken action in time at the critical moment, we might have been pushed behind the AA line.

The situation on the African battlefield was also unclear, and Montgomery and Rommel could not tell the winner for a while.

In this world war, neither side dares to pat its chest and guarantee that it can achieve final victory.

If Free France fails to successfully counterattack, then the terms of the Lend-Lease Act, except for the naval advisory group, are just like what Huang He said, they are all empty promises.

After a while, Lao Dai adjusted his state and mood, and said with firm eyes again:

"Dear Huang, we are all soldiers who protect our homeland and our country. Shouldn't we fight with the understanding that success will come if we don't succeed, and with an indomitable attitude? If you are timid before fighting, you are not a hero!"

"Although the road ahead will definitely be difficult, we will definitely defeat Germany and all other enemies. Regarding the surface ships and naval advisory group, since you have promised it, you will definitely do it!

"Besides, we are comrades! You must understand the power contained in this word better than I do."

As the leader of a force, Lao Dai naturally knew that his side had taken a huge advantage in the agreement, and his allies were more or less willing to sell their kidneys to support France.

This time when he came to the Republic of China, he had no idea of ​​contacting the Desperate War Fox at first. Instead, he went straight to the mountain city to find the bald man to discuss matters related to Southeast Asia.

After all, there are two big provinces between the border area and Indochina, so even if the other party has money and people, don't worry.

Not surprisingly, Lao Dai's preserved fruit journey was not smooth.

Facing the French people who came to beg for food, although Baldhead gave his allies the greatest respect on the surface, he would forcefully change the subject whenever assistance was involved, just like a businessman who couldn't get enough of it.

In the eyes of Guozhou senior officials, the British and Americans provided real money and equipment.

The former transports a large amount of materials through the Burma Highway, and the latter is our own guiding beacon now and in the future.

It would be excusable if they asked us to send an expeditionary force to Southeast Asia. Now that Free France has fallen into the fields of Africa, what qualifications do you have to ask us to come out?

Even if I'm bald and honest, I can't possibly pay or send people to help you fight the war.

Of course, Lao Dai’s trip was not without success.

Before leaving, Baldhead verbally promised in a personal capacity that if the Japanese were defeated and fled in the future, the preserved fruits could be taken care of before the French sent troops to take over Indochina.

In desperation, Lao Dai could only hold on to his last hope and secretly went to the Eighth Office of the mountain city to try his luck with the ideological crusaders.

But who would have thought that this trip would actually yield unexpected gains. The kind-hearted comrades not only agreed to send an advisory group, but were even willing to sign the Lend-Lease Act and provide certain assistance.

You know, that is a 2,000-kilometer air route, which is something that even the motherland in its heyday might not be able to do.

After hearing the word comrade, Huang He looked Lao Dai up and down with a meaningful look, and then he put away his playful expression and said:

"I don't know why the desperate war fox and the ideological crusaders made such a decision, but since the Lend-Lease Act and the agreement have been officially signed, we will definitely implement them with quality and quantity."

"You should also work harder in Africa and strive to integrate forces to take Vichy as soon as possible. I am still waiting to see Richelieu fight Nagato."

Although Lao Dai did not say the reason for joining the Viet Minh, Huang He, who is familiar with history and has a good strategic vision, has guessed the general situation.

In the original timeline, Free France did not attach importance to Indochina.

After all, the mainland and the navy are gone, and they have no energy and ability to reach out to Southeast Asia, not to mention that there are still a certain number of Japanese troops there.

Instead of trying to send troops in a thankless way, it is better to wait for the United States to island-hop.

But now the situation has changed. France has chosen a path to fight the whole of Europe alone in the most difficult days.

If the plan succeeds, they can not only restore their former glory, but also achieve their great ideals.

In this way, Lao Dai must unite all the forces that can be united and quietly accumulate his own strength as much as possible in the days of chaos.

Otherwise, even if the counterattack on the mainland is successful, France will inevitably continue to decline.

In the First World War, Britain was defeated from a world hegemon to a regional hegemon. In this war, it is estimated that Britain will become an old man on an isolated island.

France does not want to experience this kind of weakness personally.

Hearing Huang He's words, Lao Dai suppressed his excitement, and then took the other's hand and said: "Good! It seems that my choice is right!" "Last time we met, I said you were a businessman. Now I take it back. You are a noble person who is free from vulgarity!" Hearing this, Huang He waved his hands repeatedly. He was not a person who got a bargain and sold it. From the perspective of the current era, this Lend-Lease Act is definitely a big loss for the border area. But from the perspective of future experience, his family has made a lot of money. Others don't know the result of World War II, but can he, a time traveler, not know it? Don't look at the current Free French Navy, which is poor and has only a few cats and dogs. But as long as you wait patiently for two years, the Bain, Richelieu and a number of surface ships will return. As long as Lao Dai fulfills the terms of the Lend-Lease Act normally, the Eighth Route Army only needs to pay a certain number of infantry and artillery weapons to exchange for the right to use a battle fleet led by an aircraft carrier and a top battleship for ten years. Although the Bane is old and even has a pitifully small hangar, it is still a combat-capable aircraft carrier.

In another year, all countries will realize that beyond-visual-range naval warfare is the way to go. At that time, no matter how powerful the surface ships are, they will have to use aircraft carriers as their tactical center.

Moreover, when the People's Navy is equipped with the Liaoning, it will be seventy years later.

A Lend-Lease Act can allow the border area to have an aircraft carrier half a century in advance. This is not Qin Shihuang touching the switch: win. Ten years is enough for the navy to train a combat-capable force.

As for the advisory group, it is even more of a finishing touch in Huanghe's eyes.

Although he just talked in detail with the Crusaders who did not have ideology, he did not believe that an almighty god who could write a theory of conquering Mongolia would not see how chaotic the South China Sea would be in the future.

Now that a main force group is stationed, when the war is over and the border is redrawn, wouldn't it be much more proactive?

Just as Huang He was analyzing the pros and cons of the Lend-Lease Act, Lao Dai suddenly nudged him with his elbow, and then asked curiously:

"By the way, how do you, the Eighth Route Army, plan to open up an air route? As far as I know, there is a full 2,000 kilometers from your border area to Gaoping."

"Sichuan and Yunnan provinces do not belong to you yet, so there is no way to take over even if you want to."

After saying this, Huang He hesitated for a moment and told the truth.

The person in front of him is already an important partner of the border area. Even if he doesn't tell him about the Sky Overlord transport plane, someone else will tell him.

It's just a matter of time.

"We have a transport plane with a maximum range of 6,276 kilometers. If we depart from the border area, we can make a round trip in nine hours."

"The only thing we need to worry about is the escort problem, but the Japanese don't have many fighter planes in the Republic of China. During the transportation, we should launch a large-scale battle to attract the attention of the enemy's land aviation."

"Wait another year, we can even develop and manufacture a heavy fighter escort with a range of more than 4,000 kilometers and a speed of no less than 700 kilometers per hour."

"I have thought of its name, it's called Bumblebee!"

Hearing this, Lao Dai looked at Huang He with a look of a lunatic.

A transport plane with a maximum range of 6,276 kilometers? A speed of no less than 400 kilometers per hour? What kind of heaven-defying technology is this? This kind of thing has never been heard of in Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union.

Is this something that can be made by humans?

As for the heavy fighter with a range of more than 4,000 kilometers and a top speed of not less than 700 kilometers per hour, Lao Dai even thought Huang He was a lunatic.

If there really is such a thing, then Dai Ying's handsome warrior and Chou's P38 should simply stop the production line now. Wouldn't it be nice to just come to the Republic of China and queue up to place an order to buy an airplane?

Faced with the doubts of the new comrades, Huang He showed a disdainful expression.

"What age has it been, and you are still questioning the research and development capabilities of our border area."

"Now if you ask people from Super Marine to come to Taiyuan, they will have to kneel down and learn how to upgrade the Spitfire. In terms of the strength of the aero engine, it depends on our Shaanxi Aircraft Company."

"For specific details, you should wait for the Air Force of our Eighth Route Army to give specific plans."

"All right."

The heavy fighter that Huang He just talked about was not the third-generation fighter of the Chou Kingdom in later generations. The Hornet he calls is the final upgraded version of the Mosquito fighter.

It is one of the products after this system upgrade and requires a military factory recognized by the system as a fighter manufacturer to unlock it.

As a piston fighter at the end of World War II, it can carry four Mark 5 Western artillery pieces and two thousand-pound aerial bombs, and can fly at a maximum speed of 780 kilometers per hour in level flight. It is definitely a pioneer in long-distance air transport. The perfect choice for your route.

After the main chat, it was already time for lunch.

Huang He took Lao Dai, who was still in shock, out of the room, and the two were going to eat together in the cafeteria of the headquarters.

On the way, he suddenly thought of something very important, and then asked slightly nervously:

"You should have come with the Viet Minh, right? Did that old Hu mention who he planned to invite as the leader of the advisory group?"

"It seems to be a major general named Chen. I don't know the details." (End of Chapter)
