My girlfriend is from 1949

The Kuomintang's former warship, the "Chongqing," defected to the Communist side this year.

The warship's top speed was only 32 knots, or about 59 kilometers per hour.

This is an emergency situation where the engine is on the verge of failure due to extreme circumstances.

However, it's normal for this ship, though smaller in tonnage, to be faster.

120 kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to a speed of 65 knots, is a bit too exaggerated!

Of course, this ship was equipped with the top-of-the-line "Big Fly" engine, a high-powered engine.

Those who engage in maritime smuggling prefer to use high-powered engines.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, even modern naval destroyers have a publicly known speed of 30 knots.

That's why Chen Huai'an was stunned when he heard the expert exclaim about the number.

Although modifying such a high-powered boat is illegal.

However, the party making the modifications represents the law, so naturally it cannot be considered illegal.

But if you're sending a ship equipped with modern technology, why would you need to add a modified, high-powered engine?

It's obvious, it's for speed!

"But why increase the ship's speed? It's not like we're smuggling or delivering goods..."

Chen Huai'an paused, muttering to himself, "Delivery? Could it be that this ship isn't a gift, but rather used to deliver something else?"

Once this thought came to mind, many things immediately became clear.

I was wondering before, how could a major Eastern power like China possibly give away a second-hand ship, something so humiliating?

Especially in matters of state with foreign powers, they are extremely meticulous and cautious.

A new ship like this, at most, would only cost ten million.

How could a great Eastern power be so stingy with even ten million in matters of state?

The only explanation is that the ship was not a gift, but merely a vehicle.

The real gift must be in the cabin!

I treated the boat as a gift, which is why I came to the bridge first and haven't been to the cabin yet.

Now that we've put everything together, all the doubts are cleared up!

"Can't Zhou Liming just explain himself clearly?" Chen Huai'an couldn't help but mutter under his breath.

:

If Zhou Liming heard this, he would surely be wronged.

This ship was a gift personally sent by his superiors, so naturally he had to personally escort and hand it over.

I was going to give a detailed introduction, but Chen Huai'an's phone rang just then.

Because I was in a hurry to get to the auction that evening, I left without having a chance to explain in detail.

That's how I found out that the ship was a gift from above.

As for why, Zhou Liming didn't say!

"What are you muttering about?" Zheng Changlin asked, standing to the side.

Although I couldn't hear clearly, it seemed like they were complaining about someone.

Chen Huai'an snapped out of his thoughts, turned around and lowered his voice, saying, "I have a guess, let's check it out in the cabin."

Then she gently opened the door and went out.

address:\\\\\\\\\\\\.\\\\\\

Zheng Changlin was taken aback, then turned to look at the expert who was studying diligently.

There doesn't seem to be anything for me to do here.

Since I felt good about it anyway, I decided to go and take a look.

She gently opened the door and hurriedly chased after him.

As a seasoned veteran, he immediately sensed something was amiss.

He inquired, "Comrade Huai'an, what's in the cabin?"

There must be something that needs to be verified.

Chen Huai'an pursed his lips: "You'll only know if you go and see for yourself."

This time, I didn't say everything.

Otherwise, if I guess wrong, I'll lose face.

Upon reaching the lower cabin and then the lower hatch, this time I chose to enter the password 888888.

Click~

With a soft sound, the hatch slowly rose.

Chen Huai'an stood outside, his fists clenched, clearly very anxious.

:

When the hatch opened and the light on the right was turned on, I was completely stunned.

Two eggs could fit into its wide-open mouth!

He walked in stiffly, exclaiming repeatedly, "Wow, what a weirdo! My goodness!"

Exclaiming in surprise, he couldn't resist reaching out to touch it: "Finally~ finally I see the real thing!"

Zheng Changlin stood at the back, looking at the three black cars that were quietly parked in the cabin.

The moment I saw them, I sensed that these three cars were unusual.

After a closer inspection, it was confirmed to be an armored car.

This type of car was not uncommon during the Republic of China era.

As an underground party member, I've seen far too many of these kinds of cars.

Even when arranging the assassination, they planned to eliminate the traitors protected by bulletproof cars.

So when I saw three bulletproof cars, I didn't think much of it.

Aside from looking more dignified, I didn't notice anything else.

He also discovered that none of the three vehicles had license plates.

However, on either side of the front of the car, there are four golden stars surrounding a larger golden star on a red...

In the license plate area, there was a red badge with five five-pointed stars.

Although this badge will not be finalized until next year.

However, Zheng Changlin had seen it in the documents he brought back; it was the national emblem!

A car that can be equipped with these two supreme symbols is definitely not ordinary!

Furthermore, a microphone was installed on the roof of the vehicle!

The car has a high waistline and small windshields, making it look rather heavy.

The front of the vehicle features protruding headlights and a fan-shaped radiator grille, while the rear of the vehicle has palace-lantern-shaped taillights.

It still retains some of the old red's features, and the boat-shaped body, which is higher in the front and lower in the back, is still eye-catching.

In addition to inheriting the design genes of the old red model, the new generation of red Yueche also incorporates modern elements. The streamlined shape of the rear of the vehicle is more modern, yet still dignified and grand.

The car's design incorporates many Chinese cultural elements and symbolic meanings.

The ship-shaped body symbolizes the pride and ambition of the Chinese people, who stood up in the early days of the People's Republic of China, as they braved the winds and waves to build a new China.

:

The fan-shaped water tank cover is inspired by a folding fan, exuding the elegance of ancient Chinese literati, while the palace lantern-style taillights convey a sense of nobility and majesty.

This car can only be seen on television during major festivals.

Of course, these three cars are definitely brand new.

Pa~!

Chen Huai'an clapped his hands, his face showing a look of sudden realization.

"I see!

The boat isn't the gift; the three cars are the real gift.

It was a gift from the government there, presented to the new government for its inauguration ceremony!

There are four days left until the ceremony.

With today's transportation, there's no way it could be delivered to the capital in time.

That's why we specially modified this speedboat.

At a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, it can reach Tianjin Port in ten hours.

Then we'll drive straight to the capital!

This 300-ton ship was only transporting a car weighing about 5 tons.

Three vehicles, weighing only 15 tons, are a piece of cake!

With modern highways, it takes less than 3 hours to drive from Tianjin to Beijing.

Although the roads in 1949 were far inferior to modern highways.

But as it is the gateway to the capital, the roads are in very good condition.

It only takes a few hours to drive all the way into Beijing.

Then, after three days of adaptation, it will be sufficient to use it on the day of the ceremony.

Actually, these three cars were arranged much earlier.

As it happened, Lin Wan went to Beijing, and Chen Huai'an was on vacation, which delayed things by a week.

Otherwise, drivers would have more time to practice.

And the significance of these three cars is even greater!

This gift is definitely substantial!

:

Upon hearing the explanation, Zheng Changlin's brows furrowed deeply.

Now that the whole country has been liberated, there are warships patrolling the coastal waters, so there are no safety issues.

However, the danger is not an external factor, but an internal one!

After all, the experts had only just learned how to operate the ship.

If something goes wrong on the way, then it's beyond repair.

Even if they were towed to Tianjin Port by warships, the time would have already passed.

This is a lot of pressure!

He asked instinctively, "Comrade Huai'an, is this ship... reliable?"

The question was tactful, almost as if it were a direct question about the possibility of the train breaking down midway.

This is a political mission; if something goes wrong, the consequences could be dire.

Moreover, it was to be used at a grand ceremony just days later, which was quite careless.

Chen Huai'an thought for a moment and reassured him, "Director Zheng, don't worry, the items they send over there are absolutely top quality!"

This statement is absolutely true and not at all misleading.

Although it's a civilian product, the quality is appalling.

Many items break down right after the warranty expires.

But the military-grade ones are absolutely durable!

Moreover, this is a gift presented as a diplomatic gesture.

Chen Huai'an was 100% certain that the ship had already been thoroughly inspected from top to bottom by top engineers at the dock.

Maybe even the engine is brand new!

So making a trip to Tianjin Port is absolutely the safest option!

Just as the two were talking, a beautiful figure walked in.

When she saw the three black cars, she covered her red lips with her hand.

His big, dark eyes still held a look of shock.

Six months ago, when I first traveled to the modern era.

But after witnessing that spectacular military parade and seeing this vehicle in action!

:

Lin Wan blinked and immediately realized what was going on.

"This is the gift they sent over there?!"

Upon seeing these three cars, I immediately guessed what was going on.

I was wondering before why they would suddenly send a modern small boat.

Upon seeing these three cars, I immediately understood.

This ship is just a means of transportation.

He immediately urged, "Director Zheng, we need to get the car to Beijing as soon as possible; time is of the essence!"

Zheng Changlin frowned, his face full of trouble: "But who will steer the boat?"

Lin Wan narrowed her eyes and considered it carefully for a moment.

"The experts are now basically familiar with the ship's operation."

The three naval sailors were experienced and, under instruction, already knew how to operate the vessel.

If we familiarize ourselves with it a bit more tonight, we can set sail at dawn tomorrow.

If you are still concerned, you can bring several experts with you.

Although it's a big problem, they may not be able to solve it.

But if minor issues arise, they can still handle them!

Chen Huai'an also advised, "Director Zheng, there's no time to think about the consequences."

Zheng Changlin raised an eyebrow, a resolute glint in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and ordered, "Make sure they master it tonight, and set sail at eight o'clock tomorrow morning!"
