Chapter 286 Chinese New Year

Time is fleeting and fleeting.

In the blink of an eye, time came to February 10, the 26th year of the Republic of China, the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.

This is a year without New Year's Eve. After today is the New Year.

For Chinese people, after celebrating the New Year, they can finally get rid of the conceptual problem of "last year, this year, next year".

1937 was the real beginning.

In this year, the all-out war of resistance will begin. Japan's invasion will bring an unprecedented disaster to this troubled country in modern history, leaving an indelible and painful memory in the hearts of this generation. However, future generations will still feel regret, surprise, anger and humiliation from this year's history.

It was also in this year that the Chinese people achieved an unprecedented high degree of unity when faced with China's powerful enemy who harbored wolfish ambitions and sought to destroy us.

"Resisting Japan" is no longer just a slogan, or a matter of one city or one place, but a common responsibility of all Chinese people.

Jiangning, the entrance to Shejia Village.

Lu Feng did not expect that his first Spring Festival after time travel would be spent in a military camp with a group of big men.

When he first received the news from Zhang Wenbai that he was asked to serve as an instructor in the arson unit, Lu Feng refused. He just proposed an idea. Shouldn't he go to more professional people to implement it?

Then Zhang Wenbai said: Yes, I am looking for professionals! Aren’t you just someone who plays with fire?

When Lu Feng heard this, he wanted to retort, but after thinking about it, he felt that Zhang Wenbai's words seemed to be okay.

How many times have you set fire to things since time travel?

Next, Dai Chunfeng's transfer order gave Lu Feng no reason to refuse.

The reason why Dai Chunfeng wanted to transfer Lu Feng was, on the one hand, because Zhang Wenbai spoke up and he didn't dare not give him face. On the other hand, Dai Chunfeng was also worried if Lu Feng continued to stay in Shanghai and this kid made some noise again.

Everyone should stop thinking about having a good New Year.

Even if Lu Feng doesn't take the initiative to provoke the Japanese, the Japanese have put him on the list of "this animal deserves to be punished". For the sake of stability, it is better to transfer him to the capital side first. .

Ever since, the task of teaching the arson brigade fell on Lu Feng. When the matter came to a close, Lu Feng didn't shirk anything. He just asked Zhang Wenbai to use his connections to recruit several experienced firefighters from the Shanghai Fire Department.

When it comes to dealing with fire, it has to be these firefighters.

Just like this, a few days before the Chinese New Year, Lu Feng led a team of instructors composed of several firefighters to the arson brigade training base located on the outskirts of the capital.

To Lu Feng's surprise, the captain of this arson brigade turned out to be Fang Shengli, Zhou Weiguo's classmate and best friend.

After going round and round, I was still involved with these plot characters.

Next, Lu Feng's team of instructors only took one class to make Fang Shengli's soldiers who had not paid much attention to the task of arson a great change in their thinking.

Throughout the course, there were exclamations of "Can this also burn?" "Can it still burn like this?" "Can it burn so fast?"

In this practical comparison class, Fang Shengli and hundreds of others clearly saw how big the gap is between ordinary people and professionals.

Then, these people became very interested in arson training and began to devote themselves wholeheartedly to it.

Among them, Xu Hu, who kept saying "playing with fire and wet the bed", trained the most seriously.

After a few days, Fang Shengli and his group's arson skills improved visibly.

Tonight is a night to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. According to custom, every household must stay up late if possible.

As soldiers, Fang Shengli and the others were naturally unable to go home to reunite with their families, so they could only spend the New Year in the military camp.

Therefore, Lu Feng simply proposed the idea of ​​holding a bonfire party to celebrate, and he immediately received everyone's support.

Looking at the fires lit in front of him and the group of soldiers with excited faces, as if they had not grown up, Lu Feng also had a slight smile on his face.

Such rare relaxation may not be available again for a long time.

And in front of us, among these young officers and soldiers fighting around the fire, how many of them could survive the flesh-and-blood mill of the Songhu Battle?

Shanghai Beach, in a high-end mansion on Chuanbei Road.

Hase Aokawa is having a secret meeting with Consul General Okamoto of the Japanese Consulate.

"Mr. Hase, are you saying that you want to attack the government within this year?"

"That's right, those guys in the general staff have lost their enterprising spirit. They fear the European and American powers like tigers and wolves, and they are blindly pursuing the conservative approach of gradually embezzling. If this continues, when will it be possible to completely occupy China?"

Hase Qingchuan looked indignant.

Okamoto somewhat understood that this was Hase Aokawa venting his dissatisfaction. After all, Hase Aokawa had indeed lost face severely this time.

Not only Hase Aokawa, but as the Japanese Consul General in Shanghai, Taro Okamoto also received strong criticism from all aspects during this Youth Gang attack.

Adhering to the concept that it is better to blame others than to reflect on oneself, Hase Aokawa and Okamoto Taro both blamed the military department for this time.

You said that if you decisively send troops to start a war, wouldn't everything be fine? "This Ishihara, since he rose to the top with the help of the "Manchuria Incident", he has tried his best to suppress others for fear that others will replicate his success. He is really a coward. How can we do a good job in our country with such idiots? empire?"

Taro Okamoto also gritted his teeth.

Unlike the previous Consul General Shimura Hideo, who valued business interests, Taro Okamoto was a standard radical, and he also strongly supported all-out war. Because of this, he had this secret meeting with Hase Aokawa.

"I have already contacted the country. By the end of this year at the latest, our navy will find a way to provoke a war. By then, I don't believe that Ishihara can use any excuses like the army just changed defenses to excuse us.

By then, Shanghai will be the first place to bear the brunt. We hope that Consul General Okamoto can fully support us by then. "

"Please rest assured, Mr. Hase, I will definitely be on your side."

"Yoshi, Okamoto-kun's words are enough."

After reaching the agreement, Taro Okamoto quietly left the mansion, while Hase Aokawa began to contact the next partner.

Wusongkou, on the cruise ship "Europa".

"What did you say? Five thousand dollars?"

Captain Hoffman looked at the arms broker in front of him angrily.

However, the arms broker just said calmly:

"Mr. Hoffman, you need to know that the most important thing is missing from your shipment. To put it bluntly, this shipment is only 3,000 rounds of ammunition. The five thousand dollars I can offer you is already a very conscientious price. .

Who made this batch of ammunition of yours almost useless? After I bought it, it was a big problem to resell it. "

"Impossible, I can't do it at this price."

"Five thousand dollars, deal done!"

Before Captain Hoffman could finish speaking, the first mate next to him directly agreed to the deal.

"Ladon, you!"

"Mr. Captain, we have no time to delay here, or do you want to transport this pile of things back to Europe?"

After listening to the first mate's words, Captain Hoffman suddenly became depressed.

Also, in half a month, the cruise ship "Europa" will return home. You can't say that you are going back to Europe with such a box of shells, right?

So next, Chief Lawton had full authority to reach a deal with the broker and sold the ammunition and gun mounts of the machine guns for US$5,000.

However, this money did not fall into the hands of Captain Hoffman.

The smuggling trade is never something that the captain can do alone. In order to ensure that no problems occur, everyone on the ship has a certain share of the smuggling profits.

That is hush money.

But because Lu Feng and Liu San robbed Captain Hoffman, Captain Hoffman could no longer pay the hush money.

Others don't care whether the money is stolen or robbed. As long as the money is lost in Captain Hoffman's hands, it is his responsibility alone.

And for this smuggling trade, Captain Hoffman mortgaged most of his assets before departure to purchase arms.

This is also a common practice among Western speculators. When they see an opportunity, they invest all their wealth in it.

It only takes one night to become rich, and it only takes one day to go bankrupt.

In other words, Captain Hoffman has now become a penniless pauper with a lot of debt.

This is why First Officer Lawton dared to make the decision for him.

The depressed Captain Hoffman returned to his suite. Lying on the bed, he felt a little lucky. When he purchased the castle, he had the foresight to put it in his son's name.

In other words, the castle will not be taken away by the bank to pay off the debt, and after returning, I will still have a stable place to spend the rest of my life.

It’s not a bad idea to go to Poland for retirement.
