    The U.S. ambassador to the Republic of China, Clarence Edward Gorth, immediately went to the Eighth Route Army Office in Chongqing after receiving the telegram from Washington, and expressed to the deputy director that the U.S. would like to purchase jet aircraft, expressing sincerity and at the same time  In order to prevent the leakage of information, you can go to Yan'an to have an interview with the high level of the CCP.

    After receiving this news, all the bosses in Yangjiawan were shocked immediately, and the little joy they had obtained by calculating Yan Xishan just now disappeared.

    Li Hui was the most surprised of course. He originally thought that the United States, which has always focused on Japan and Germany, would not pay too much attention to China's affairs in the Chinese region, so he boldly launched the J-5 fighter jets in the Linfen Battle  , but I didn't expect people to grasp the news of their jet-engined aircraft so quickly, and immediately put forward a purchase request.

    This time it will be difficult. Although the turbojet-5A used by the J-5 belongs to the category of the world's first generation engine, with a net weight and low thrust, it is a veritable ancestor, but no matter how you say it, it is also an epoch-making thing.  If the United States obtains this kind of engine, with their industrial level and technology, I am afraid that it will be imitated in less than a year, and mass-produced in half a year. Once the jet equipped with a turbojet-5A engine  When the aircraft enters service, German and Japanese fighters will be slaughtered, even those me262s are no exception, and the course of World War II will be completely rewritten.  This is naturally what Li Hui doesn¡¯t want to see (the author¡¯s heartfelt words: Actually, it¡¯s not that he wants to, but I don¡¯t want to, because then I will be locked up in a small black room!

    However, if you don¡¯t agree to the request of the United States Hey, it seems that there is nothing wrong with disagreeing. The United States and China are thousands of miles away, and there are a large number of Japanese troops in between. Even if Uncle Sam is angry, it is impossible in this remote Northwest  Come bite them.  Economic blockade? Come on, now up and down in Yan'an, is there one thing that is aided by the United States?  Even those b17s are traded with technology.  Block a wool!  The angry Uncle Sam would at most withdraw those oil experts and technicians, but this has not had much impact on the oil industry in northern Shaanxi.  Now those workers in Changqing and Yanchang oil fields have fully mastered the new mining technology.  The supporting factories have also all entered into production, and it doesn't matter if there are those Americans.  Even if it is necessary to open wells or train new workers in the future, those local experts and technicians who have already made it are fully competent.  So offending Uncle Sam is basically nothing.

    Immediately afterwards, Li Hui shared his analysis with several big brothers.  The bosses also feel that such advanced technology should not be sold to the Americans. Now that the United States has become the veritable largest country in the world, if their strength is strengthened, Japan will be wiped out at a small cost.  And Germany, then the United States is bound to become the world's leader after the war, and this will not benefit China in the slightest.

    I have to say that this gang really deserves the title of great men. Now that the Eighth Route Army is just a local force in the northwest, they have considered the post-war issues. Their vision and political sense are so profound that it is admirable.

    Therefore, under the instruction of the central government, the deputy director of the Eighth Route Army Office in Chongqing replied to Gao Si in a tactful tone: "Mr.  The aircraft and its parts are sold exclusively to other countries in any way.  Otherwise, the other party will no longer provide us with anything.  If you would like to purchase, please contact the seller directly!  '

    "Then who is the seller and how can we get in touch?" Gao Si asked directly.

    The deputy director smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, the seller has solemnly told us not to tell others his identity, otherwise he will not provide us with anything."

    Gao Si's nose almost turned out of breath. Isn't this the fucking Catch-21? If you don't tell me who the seller is, how can I buy it!  But when people say that, he has no choice but to send these words back to the United States without saying a word, and ask the government to make a decision.

    ? When the news went back to Washington, Roosevelt and other high-level US officials were also very angry. They did not expect that the gang in Yan'an, who had just had a full meal for a few days, would dare to disobey Uncle Sam's will.  Sanctions must be sanctioned.  But it took this group of people a long time to realize that, as Li Hui said, they did not have any means to effectively sanction Yan'an.

    Not only that, but they also found that they were the ones who benefited from the recent transactions with the CCP, especially the production and purification technology of penicillin, which has increased the production of penicillin in the United States by a hundred in one and a half years.  Fifty percent, and all of them are high-purity powders. While saving a large number of Allied soldiers, they also made a lot of money.

    And those oil in Yan'anExperts also wrote in the family letter that the Eighth Route Army now has many advanced machinery and equipment, such as the production of cement, urea, plastics, etc., the output and technology are higher than those currently used by American factories, such as the manufacture of artificial rubber, artificial  Fiber machines are not even available in the United States.

    In other words, if the United States turns against Yan'an now, not only will it not help the matter, but it will also completely lose the opportunity to master these machines and equipment and make a lot of money.  Naturally, neither the U.S. government nor the plutocrats behind them would do such a loss-making business.

    Roosevelt hesitated for a long time with an ugly face, and finally said: "For the benefit of the United States, it is better to maintain a good relationship with the CCP on the surface, but the matter of jet engines cannot be left alone. If it is not clear, it will be dark.  Immediately select some elite agents to go to China, and when they act, be careful not to be noticed.  "

    A general asked: "Mr. President, we can ask Dr. Ford and those oil experts to help us collect intelligence. After all, they are in Yan'an, and from their home letters, the Chinese still respect and trust them.  , have the opportunity to come into contact with this kind of core secret.¡±

    Roosevelt shook his head: "Do you think that the people in Yan'an are all fools? After we sent the purchase intention, they will no longer trust those experts. Moreover, Ford and the others have not received professional training. If they show their feet, they will expose us.  Intent, and affect our relationship with Yan'an, and even affect the life and death of those experts, so professional things should be left to professional people!" After a pause, he said: "Tell the logistics department,  Let Bell immediately upgrade the type of jet fighter they have developed, at least in terms of speed to meet the standards of Chinese aircraft."

    Three months after the me262 test flight in Germany, that is, in October 1942, a jet fighter in the United States, the xp-59a developed by Bell Corporation (later the p59 "air comet"), also conducted a test flight  .  However, the test flight effect this time was not satisfactory. The p-59 with a length of 11.83 meters, a wingspan of 14 meters and a net weight of more than 3.7 tons was too heavy and heavy, and the thrust of the British-made Whittle engine used was very limited.  As a result, this jet aircraft, which the U.S. military had high hopes for, only flew at a top speed of 650 kilometers per hour.  There were also problems with yaw due to roll, poor engine response and insufficient lateral stability in flight.

    But the U.S. military is very satisfied with this. After all, such data has surpassed most of the propeller fighter jets in active service. At that time, the test flight data of me262 was kept in a state of absolute secrecy, so these Yankees thought that the jet fighter  That's how it should be.  It wasn't until they received the Linfen battle report that they realized how wrong they were.

    Just as the secretary was about to leave, Roosevelt said again: "Let Lockheed and Boeing also start research and development of jet aircraft, and tell them that whoever develops an aircraft that can exceed the speed of 900 kilometers per hour, the government will sign the purchase agreement."  contract!  '?

    At that time, both Lockheed and Boeing focused on the development of new propeller fighter jets. Now that they are allowed to develop jet aircraft, it is bound to delay the development of the original project, which is in urgent need of new aircraft to suppress the Zero.  It will undoubtedly have a very negative impact, but in order to be able to produce his own jet fighters as soon as possible, and for the air force of the United States to be able to control the air supremacy in war, Roosevelt obviously can't care so much anymore.

    Soon Yan'an received a call from Gao Si, but the content was not about evacuating oil experts, but some polite words and hints about continuing to maintain good relations with Yan'an.  No more retaliation.  They said they were not afraid before, but they still kept beating their hearts. After all, the United States is the most powerful country in the world. Even if they cannot retaliate on a large scale, as long as they use a few small tricks secretly, it will be enough for them.  Even if they try to pay huge transportation costs and resolutely stop buying aviation fuel from Yan'an, they will lose a lot of income.  Well now, Uncle Sam swallowed the breath, and the sky is full of clouds!

    But you guys were not happy for too long, and received a shocking news from the intelligence department-Ma Hongkui, who is the deputy commander-in-chief of the 8th theater and the commander-in-chief of the 17th Army, is gathering in the southeast of Ningxia and eastern Gansu.  There are signs that they are preparing to attack Yanchi and Qingyang.

    You guys were shocked when you heard the words. The Yanchi and Qingyang areas are the control areas of the Eighth Route Army in Ningxia and Gansu respectively. The strategic location is very important. It is the west gate to defend northern Shaanxi, and now it has become an important source of income for the Eighth Route Army¡ª¡ª  This Yanchi area has extremely rich lake salt resources. After the large-scale development of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Area, Li Hui moved in a complete set of salt refining and processing equipment, and opened a salt field there, which not only solved the problem of salt consumption for the soldiers and civilians in the border area.  , The refined salt produced was also sold outside, earning a lot of valuable funds for the border area.

    Then Qingyang is amazing. The main body of Changqing Oilfield is there, so there is absolutely no room for loss in these two places.

    "What on earth does Ma Hongkui want to do?" The chairman exclaimed in shock.

    It's very simple, they just want to capture Yanchi and Qingyang, and then capture Ansai, and occupy all the oil fields in northern Shaanxi!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)Sell ??it out and earn back a lot of valuable money for the Border District.
