"The United States' Operation Plan No. 7? Japan's Matsu Plan?"
Meng Shaoyuan almost laughed when he looked at the two pieces of information in his hand.
"No." Ding Wenrui said enthusiastically, "It cost me a lot of money."
"Ding Wenrui!"
"arrive!"
"You are responsible for protecting the Richardsons, but you go and buy information?" Meng Shaoyuan's face darkened: "If anything happens to the Richardsons while you are buying information, who will bear the responsibility?"
"Yes, the staff department was wrong." Ding Wenrui quickly explained: "But the staff department followed them while asking."
"It's also easy to be distracted. This is the most taboo thing in intelligence work." Meng Shaoyuan's tone gradually became serious: "If that intelligence dealer did this deliberately to delay you, have you thought about the consequences?"
Ding Wenrui's expression changed.
"In our business, we can never make the slightest bit of negligence at any time." Meng Shaoyuan said coldly: "That could be fatal."
"The department made a mistake, sir, please punish me."
"There will definitely be punishment, let's wait until we return to Chongqing." After Meng Shaoyuan finished speaking, he glanced at the two pieces of information in his hand: "You are different from Li Zhifeng, you are smarter and studious than Li Zhifeng.
You have not been in the military for a long time, but your understanding of this industry has surpassed that of Li Zhifeng. However, you have only been out in the field for a short time, and your experience is far less than that of Li Zhifeng.
Li Zhifeng has been following me since my days in Shanghai. He can tell whether a person is a ghost at a glance. And you? Do you really think that someone would openly sell such top-secret information from the Americans and Japanese?
Are there intelligence dealers, and I heard that there are special sales outlets in Macau, but they can be sold on the street? "
As he said that, he looked through it again: "Don't tell me, it's done in a decent way. It can really fool people. The numbers are also roughly correct. I've put a lot of effort into it. Except for the wrong number of aircraft carriers, the counterfeiters Underestimating the strong industrial capabilities of the United States. Do you know how long it takes the United States to build an aircraft carrier?"
Li Zhifeng picked up the tea cup: "I heard that building an aircraft carrier is very laborious and it takes several years to build one. Little Japan has lost so many aircraft carriers and there is no way to make up for it."
"Yes, little Japan cannot make up for its losses." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "But the United States can build an aircraft carrier in a week."
"puff"!
Li Zhifeng just took a sip of water and spit it out: "Sir, don't fool me. No matter how powerful the industry is in the United States, it can't even build an ordinary warship in a week, right?"
"I'm not fooling you, the United States already has more than a hundred aircraft carriers."
Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "The speed of construction is jaw-dropping. Of course, such rapidly constructed aircraft carriers are all modified from commercial ships, which also greatly shortens the construction period.
To put it bluntly, these aircraft carriers are used as consumables during wars, which also meets the requirements of the US military. After all, it takes too long to produce a new aircraft carrier, which is unrealistic for the US military in the midst of a fierce war.
The use of merchant ship modification is also helpful to reduce costs, so a large number of merchant ships have been converted into aircraft carriers by the U.S. Navy. The Americans will fight with you and at the same time attack you psychologically! "
The United States built a total of 155 aircraft carriers during World War II, including 27 large main battle aircraft carriers, 11 light aircraft carriers, and 117 escort aircraft carriers.
From a numerical perspective, the number of aircraft carriers the United States possessed throughout World War II is truly astonishing.
However, during this period, U.S. aircraft carriers were basically converted from large merchant ships.
Because the aircraft carrier-based aircraft at this time were all piston propeller aircraft, they did not have high requirements for the deck runway conditions. There was no need to ski jump the runway, let alone install a catapult. They only needed to use the hull of a large merchant ship and lay a steel deck on it. That's it.
But even so, looking around the world, only the United States has such strong industrial strength.
Li Zhifeng and Ding Wenrui were both stunned.
After a while, Li Zhifeng murmured: "When will our country also have its own aircraft carrier?"
"Yes, there will be." Meng Shaoyuan cheered up: "Maybe our generation can't see it, but our descendants will definitely be able to see it with their own eyes.
We will have aircraft carriers, the most advanced aircraft and tanks, the most powerful army, and the most powerful motherland. Believe me, there will be a day! "
He threw away the two pieces of false information in his hand: "Let's go, I'll take you to Macau for a walk."
"Where are the Richardsons?"
"Damn it, let them stay in the room and not go out. I saved them, do I still have to treat them as uncles?"
"What if they run out on their own?"
"Run out on your own?" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "They have been prisoners for a long time, and they were finally rescued. If you give them three more courage, they will never dare to leave even half a step without my instructions!"
…
The Macau that Meng Shaoyuan saw was far from as prosperous as he imagined.
However, because Macau was not occupied by Japan, Macau experienced unprecedented development during the war.
The gambling industry also began to take off during this period.
At the same time, it has promoted the development of tourism, catering, entertainment, real estate and investment industries.
This quickly made Macau become a world-famous gold sales cave.
But this is only concentrated in a few places in Macau.
There are many narrow alleys around.
It is a slum for Macau's local poor and outsiders.
Sewage flows everywhere here, and everyone's face is filled with numbness and despair.
And not far away, there are banks, dance halls, and casinos.
A gambler who lost all his money was kicked out.
He was unwilling and spat at the casino.
A rich lady just got off the rickshaw. The gambler rushed up to her, grabbed his bag, and ran away.
Mrs. Kuo screamed.
The security guard at the bank entrance picked up his stick and hit the gamblers who ran past him.
The punter was knocked to the ground.
Two bank security guards stepped forward and struck down one stick after another.
Mrs. Kuo came over.
The security guard stopped, picked up the bag on the ground, and returned it to her in a flattering manner.
Mrs. Kuo took out two tickets from her bag and gave one to each of the two security guards.
The security guard smiled happily.
The gambler with blood on his head got up from the ground, grumbled and left.
No one paid attention to him.
This is Macau.
Macau is no different from anywhere else.
Meng Shaoyuan had seen this scene countless times in the Shanghai Public Settlement.
In fact, where is this not true?
"Enemies meet on a narrow road!"
Ding Wenrui said viciously: "That's him!"
"who?"
"The person who sold me false information!"
Ding Wenrui pointed forward.
I saw a short man with a mustache entering a hotel.
"Yeah?"
Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Who dares to lie to me? Come on, let's follow up and have a look, Xiao Ding, but they also cheat money based on their skills!"
What kind of words are these?
