Chapter 103: To Yangcheng
“Schedule meetings with the heads of those foreign flying clubs with whom we’ve already established relationships, at agreed times, to meet them and see if they are interested in coming here to Shanghai. I can meet them in person! As for all their expenses coming here to Shanghai, I will reimburse them all!”
“We can pay them first, and then come over to discuss the manufacturing technology of new-style airplanes, as well as the transaction!”
After Zhou Wenhua listened to the report from the contact personnel of the flying clubs under him, he responded without hesitation.
For him now, he increasingly firmly hoped to do some infrastructure things for this country,
At the very least, he hoped that after the second Battle of Shanghai broke out,
The casualties among this country’s military and civilians would not be so numerous.
Or to enable this country to establish a certain foundation in science and technology a little earlier, so that during the peacetime after the war, it could accelerate the development of science and technology in various domestic fields.
In short, Zhou Wenhua felt that he should do some useful things,
Otherwise, he would be wasting the time after he transmigrated here for nothing,
Especially now that he had money and a Security Team to protect him; if even in such a situation he didn’t dare to go all out to do something, then for those from commoner backgrounds, it would be even more impossible for them to go all out.
Of course, those troops about to undertake the Long March were different; they were all military and civilians he admired,
The new era of such peace and prosperity in later generations was all thanks to these people laying the foundation for peacetime for their descendants.
These were the military and civilian troops that Zhou Wenhua would respect for his entire life.
“Yes! Boss!”
After Zhou Wenhua’s words fell,
All the contact personnel of the flying clubs under him unanimously and loudly agreed.
Immediately afterward, they continued to wait for Zhou Wenhua’s next instruction.
However, Zhou Wenhua didn’t say much more and just instructed them to go ahead and act according to his previous instructions.
Then,
He also called over his newly brought secretary Cai Jinhua who was by his side.
“What’s the battle situation like on the Shanghai side now?”
“Have the Japanese Army’s Army Troops started participating in the battle yet?”
“Or is the 19th Route Army still fighting with the Japanese Marine Corps?”
“Have the other Central Army troops not yet been dispatched for support operations?”
“Has the Central Army’s Air Force taken off for attack operations to intercept the incoming Japanese Aircraft Group?”
Then, Zhou Wenhua began to ask a series of questions.
“The Japanese Army’s Army Troops have not yet joined the battle!”
“The Japanese Marine Corps is still engaged in fierce fighting with the 19th Route Army; there’s even street fighting going on between them!”
“The Central Army’s troops have also not yet participated in the battle!”
“As for the Central Army’s Air Force, they haven’t taken off for attack operations at all!”
“However, the Japanese Aircraft Group is wantonly carrying out air strike bombing over Shanghai against various military and civilian areas, causing numerous innocent military and civilian casualties!”
“Also, the Japanese Aircraft Carrier Fleet is increasingly arriving here in Shanghai to participate in operations!”
“Including the Japanese transport fleet, which is continuously ferrying batch after batch of Japanese Marine Corps troops to land in Shanghai for operations! Moreover, the Japanese Marine Corps’ forces now exceed 10,000 troops, so the pressure on the 19th Route Army’s frontline positions is also growing tremendously!”
“If the 19th Route Army’s main force doesn’t get reinforcements soon, I’m afraid their subsequent battles will become even more brutal, with casualties growing ever larger!”
“Boss!”
The new secretary Cai Jinhua hurriedly reported.
“Mm! Have our German-equipped troops and Security Forces continue to assist them in operations at any time!”
“Has Zhou Weiguo and his little lover Chen Yi been protected well according to my prior instructions?”
“They didn’t run into trouble while going to the 19th Route Army’s frontline positions to deliver condolences, did they?”
After hearing this, Zhou Wenhua continued.
“Zhou Weiguo and his lover Chen Yi have already been safely rescued by the German-equipped troops you dispatched, Boss!”
“And now they are also in a safe area!”
The new secretary Cai Jinhua continued to report all the information she knew.
“Mm! These German-equipped troops did very well!”
“Let’s go! We’ll make a trip to Yangcheng; there’s still some business of Shi Sanxing’s there that I want to check out!”
“I need to do some real industry for this chaotic era!”
After Zhou Wenhua heard this,
He nodded in satisfaction and continued to instruct.
“Yes! Boss!”
The new secretary Cai Jinhua nodded in agreement.
And she immediately had all the Security Team members by her side escort Zhou Wenhua onto the car convoy,
Heading off grandly toward Yangcheng.
Because from where they were, going to Yangcheng didn’t require taking the sea route, so they took the land route,
Especially since they had cars and a main road to travel on.
