Chapter 190 Soldiers

Xu Gangchuan finally became famous. Although for various reasons, he did not immediately become famous all over the world. Even so, many people still remembered his name. People exclaimed "Xixing entered Shanghai". After a simple scrutiny, people marveled that the Li family was going to "expand" again, and at the same time surprised people. In addition, there is another lustful person in the Li family! Just after the Spring Festival, Kang Shilin returned to Shanghai, visited his two wives's parents' home, and formally proposed to the two families, making it clear that he was the identity of Li's son and his lifelong companionship with his wife who could not get married. Then, Li Mengze called from Beijing to clarify the attitude of the Li family, and the relationship between the two sides was officially confirmed! On March 4, 1940, Shanghai Donglu Company officially announced that the whole company was merged into Xixing Trading Company. According to the announcement, Xixing Trading Company is a complete shareholder of the land company. As a branch, Donglu has full authority to handle the business of the trading company in Shanghai. After the reorganization and expansion, Donglu Company will continue to be held by Huang Yunfei. General Manager. Shanghai people are first surprised by this announcement, surprised by Xu Gangchuan, and then shocked by the background of this matter... No matter how people evaluate this matter, Xu Gangchuan is satisfied. The Shanghai business that has endured for many years has finally been resolved. After waiting for many years, it is enough. As for Shanghai Or how many people in the country remember him? He doesn't care, because he is not a person who values fame and fortune!

Xu Gangchuan doesn't care what people think of him and is willing to live his low-key business life, but in fact, he can't keep a low profile as before. There are not many comments on the reappearance of "polygamy" in the Li family, but comments on Xixing Trading Company can be seen everywhere and gradually become conspicuous! People thought of the result of this matter. Xixing Trading Company annexed Donglu Company, and what does Donglu Company do? People soon know how big it is. And such a huge commercial company is only a branch of Xixing. So how big is Xixing's commercial company? Everyone was shocked by the statistics. Unconsciously, Xixing's trading company has opened all over the country and become a national commercial company, with branches in major cities across the country, hundreds of cities, thousands of business branches, and all large stores. Can such a company not be strong? Is such a huge company still a small company? Is this still the "small company" that has not been favored a few years ago? People marveled that Xixing has created another miracle, the miracle of the rise of a commercial empire! As the head of this business empire, people don't talk about Xu Peng. Xu Peng, who has read Huajia, has never been valued by people. Then it is the young man, the young man who has just stood up, the Xu family, no, should be an important figure of the young generation of the Li family. From this, Xu Gangchuan established the image of the second generation of important people of the Li family in people's minds. Unwitting people thought that he was a migrant worker of the Li family, but those who knew it knew that he had become a pioneer and manager of Li's important industry!

The older generation is very happy about Xu Gangchuan's sudden rise. Xu Peng is happy, Li Yudong is happy, and Li Mengze is also happy... This is an important masterpiece of their next generation. Can they not be happy? From now on, Li can enter the big market of the retail industry, and is no longer a simple manufacturing king. Their company catalogue will be engraved with the logo of the service giant, which will help the fairy's faster and bigger development. Although the assets of Xixing Trading Company are not very large, not as good as the three major industries of Fairy and Xixing Real Estate Company, this is only the beginning. The economic crisis is not completely over, and the company has just been established. As a deputy, it is enough. In the eyes of the senior officials of Fairy and Xixing, Xixing Trading Company will be a huge edge. Its huge sharpness is no weaker than any other company. It will become a huge assistant to the fairy and Xixing industry, especially to lay a solid foundation for the fairy to continue to move forward.

If you ask people, during the economic crisis, where is the biggest amazing thing about fairies in China, people will not talk about fairies biotechnology companies, because everyone realize that fairies will enter this huge industry in this market, and they should be able to enter easily; people will not say fairy Women have entered the banking industry. Everyone thinks that this is the way that fairies must go. Although fairies did not intend to enter the banking industry, people will not say that fairies have entered the food industry. Although fairy food has made great progress in recent years and integrated into the large Shanghai company of Seagull Company at the end of March 1940, even " The "Food King" has entered the fairy together. What people want to say is that the fairy (Xixing) has made a huge breakthrough in the retail industry. Xixing Commercial Company, which has not been famous for 30 years, suddenly shined and has become one of the most widely distributed commercial companies in the country. Its branches are located in major cities across the country and become the instant rise of the retail industry! This is the biggest surprise brought to people by fairies. Since then, there have been commercial companies in Li's major industries. From then on, people no longer dare to underestimate Xixing's "cowardice" in the commercial field!

The sudden rise of Xu Gangchuan also made people realize that in addition to the original surname, the Li family also has a powerful Xu family. Previously, when people said that they were fairies, they mentioned the Li family. People said that Xixing, they mentioned the Li family, the Li family, the Wang family and the Xu family. Later, the Wang family did not mention it much, and gradually the Xu family was not valued. People seem to have forgotten it. The Xu family and the Wang family. However, the sudden rise of Xixing Trading Company has made people pay attention to the Xu family again. In fact, the Xu family is not weak at all, especially among the many children of the Li family who are in the limelight. Xu Gangchuan is like a dazzling pearl, giving off brilliant brilliance and confirming the strength of the Li family! Since the Xu family is so strong, what about the Wang family? What about the Li family? Even if their generation is not strong, can it mean that their descendants are not strong? Since the Xu family can be strong, how can the other two families not be strong? People can't help but look forward to it!

If the trading company is the deputy leader of the two major company systems, Fairy and Xixing, then, as the three surnames of Li's companion, will it be the deputy leader of the Li family? People can't help thinking. The Li family is already very strong. If there are strong people with the cooperation of the three surnames, wouldn't it be more powerful? Perhaps, the contempt for Li's collateral, just like the sideline of the fairy and Xixing, will be seriously taught.

What is impossible for a fairy to be so rich?

This year's Spring Festival, the Li family courtyard was spent in tension.

The Spring Festival after the chaos should not have been like this, but should be happy. On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Xu Gangchuan left Beijing and made an appointment with Sun Yaxuan's mother in Shanghai. Li Mengze, who was counting his fingers, immediately gave him another task. For this temporary assigned task, Li Yudong couldn't laugh or cry, and Xu Peng was even more annoyed, and even claimed that he could go there. Both of them knew that the "Food King" was not a provocal, and they would definitely not give visitors a good look, especially for these young people, but they couldn't resist someone's "bitter heart". . However, that day attracted Angie's pain and sadness, because she had never been scolded so severely by her father since she was a child. Of course, someone didn't want to do this. Although she is her daughter, she is now the daughter-in-law of the Li family, and she must not be bullied by anyone! The fact that Wang Yifei was angry with his daughter caused a strong response in the Li family compound. Almost everyone was indignant. That posture made the perpetrators afraid and worried about what losses his father would suffer. Then he heard his father-in-law quarreled with his father indiscriminately, which made the little girl in a dilemma! The Li family blamed the "food king" for saying no. Everyone came to comfort and encourage this little sister-in-law, but it was reassuring that Shanghai soon sent back new news, and the compound was quiet again! But Li didn't calm down because of this, and bigger things caused the whole family to be nervous!

February 18, 40, that is, the tenth day of the first lunar year of the traditional Chinese lunar year, is an unusual day! On this day, tens of millions of Chinese soldiers who are on family leave have been urgently recalled through various channels. The air force, the officers and soldiers who are on vacation during the Spring Festival, the army troops, the officers and soldiers who are on vacation at home, and the officers and soldiers who are on vacation at home are urgently recalled to the troops according to the batch! This is the first time in the Republic in recent decades!

On February 18, people in the Li family compound received an emergency notice of "military soldiers immediately end their vacation and return to the army within xx hours" through TV, radio, the Internet and newspapers almost at the same time! For a moment, the whole heart of the Li family was raised, and the reason why the soldiers were recalled to the camp was well known, and their two children were among the first emergency recalls. Lin Yongkang, a captain of the 2nd Marine Division, was asked to leave to return to the army within 12 hours, and Liang Bokang, the deputy battalion commander of the 1st Regiment and 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Brigade of the Marine Corps, was asked to return to the unit to be on standby within 24 hours! The old and young of the Li family turned their eyes to the two soldiers who were ready to go. They are relatives of the whole Li family and are about to return to the army, and are likely to participate in the war. Everyone knows the cruelty of modern war, and everyone knows the importance of the air force and the role of the marines. Ming! No matter what the reason is, the real Li family will not be relaxed, but for whatever reason, the two young soldiers will soon go to the barracks! Four hours after receiving the notice, Liang Bokang and Lin Yongkang have embarked on flights to Shanghai and Guangzhou respectively. Five minutes after receiving the notice, the tickets to Shanghai and Guangzhou have been booked, and there is almost no delay. Li's two soldiers began to say goodbye to their relatives in Beijing. People! Although the old people's hearts are heavy, although the mothers and aunts look complicated, and although the young women want to talk, the men of the Li family, whether they are old people who are over the age or young people who have not graduated from college, only have determination in their eyes...

On this day, it is not only the two young people of the Li family who say goodbye to their relatives. There are also thousands of young people from different families who walk out of their homes without hesitation, either by plane, by train, or by high-speed bus, and rush back to their troops. More officers and soldiers are ready to go, and long-distance calls have been made. Even the first batch of soldiers of some troops have been deployed, and the destinations are several provinces and cities in southern China. In less than five days, the whole province of Guangzhou and Guangxi has become a huge barracks and a large number of military gathering places! Many military airports have transferred various types of aircraft from all over the country, such as fighter planes, bombers, reconnaissance aircraft, and even tankers and early warning aircraft. The whole southern region was subject to aviation control on the afternoon of the 18th, and at this time, Lin Yongkang's flight just flew over Hunan Province and entered the air control area. Lin Yongkang was one of the first officers and soldiers who rushed back to the second division of HNA after receiving the notice. It was less than 10 hours before receiving the transfer order. When Bo Kang arrived at the station, it was less than 12 hours after receiving the notice. When he arrived at the station, he found that the already crowded station was more crowded, and many troops were already changing their clothes urgently. As soon as the troops are about to leave the station, the second battalion has also carried out emergency mobilization...

On February 20, 1940, China announced an all-round blockade of Taiwan Province. At the same time, it issued a stern warning to some countries in Southeast Asia, "seriously requiring" some countries to stop provocative actions and "restrain the domestic situation"! On the 21st, a destroyer detachment of China's South China Sea Fleet had a fierce maritime confrontation with a country in Southeast Asia. In less than an hour, more than 20 advanced fighters from two countries gathered over the fleet. From the air to the sea, various confrontation signals continued to upgrade!

At 13:14 p.m. on the 21st, the Philippine fleet "fired" a naval gun; at 13:14:23, three fighters from the Chinese side each fired two air-to-air missiles. Two seconds later, more than 20 fighters over the two fleets who were confronting fired a total of 40 missiles from each other. By 15 minutes, there were 8 planes missing over the fleet! Two minutes later, there were only five fighters painted with the red "8 One" logo in the air. At the same time of the fierce fighting in the air, the two fleets on the sea were also fiercely attacking each other. The missiles were quickly launched, but they were all ship-to-ship missiles. None of the missiles were fired into the air. In less than 4 minutes, almost every warship was dressed in color. The distance was too close, and there was no time to avoid it at all. The ship's air defense facilities were rooted. It doesn't work at all. Subsequently, the Philippine fleet began to try to escape from the war zone, but by 13:33, it had lost its power and began to sink. The Chinese fleet was also scarred and lost its combat ability. After rescuing 10 pilots who fell into the water, it "slowly" drove in the direction of its own fleet. After flying for a minute in the direction of the Philippine fleet in a word formation, the five fighters in the air urgently turned back and quickly left the battlefield. It was not until 20 minutes later that six Philippine fighters flew over the battle area, but all they saw was the turbulent sea, many naval officers and soldiers in lifeboats, and the sinking destroyer!

On the afternoon of February 21, 1940, it was known as the beginning of the outbreak of the Southeast Asian War. The battle that day was extremely fierce. Each side had a ship and 12 fighter jets at the same time. After nearly 5 minutes of confrontation in the air, the battle began. It is known as the "first joint sea and air battle" of the Southeast Asian War! As a result of the battle on the sea, a destroyer on the Philippine side sank, with 246 officers and soldiers on the ship, 62 dead, 35 injured, and two others missing; 18 people were killed and 54 injured on the Chinese ship, and the remaining 167 were intact, but the ship also lost its combat capability after two days of slow sailing. He returned to his home port with 18 dead, 58 wounded and 172 intact people. After that, it was not until June that he made a second voyage! As a result of the battle in the air, five Chinese aircraft chased in the direction of the enemy aircraft for one minute. The specific casualties were that a total of three Chinese aircraft were shot down in the war zone, and two planes were seriously injured and returned to the base under the escort of two friendly planes. One of the planes flew for 30 minutes due to the serious injury of the pilot. Heavy, unable to continue to control the flight, had to parachute to escape (saved by submarines swimming nearby), with a total loss of 4 aircraft; while the Philippine combat team had a total of six planes were shot down over the war zone, and three were injured. One of them escaped in time and successfully escaped, the other two were finally shot down, and the rest of the fighters were scattered. Escape. Nine pilots fell into the water earlier. Two pilots in China were injured, one of whom was more serious. On the contrary, only two of the six pilots in the Philippines were slightly injured. In the whole battle, the Philippines lost eight fighters, China lost only four, and China captured six pilots.

This is the result of the first battle in Southeast Asia. The naval casualties ratio of the two sides is 72 to 97, the death rate is 18 to 62, the fighter loss ratio is 5 to 9, the pilot loss ratio is 3 to 6, and the injury ratio is 3 to 2. It should be said that China has won both on the sea and from the air. The outbreak of the war and the results of the first battle were soon reported. Chinese officials said that "the Philippines provoked the war", and it won the counterattack; the Philippines claimed that "China provoked the war" and "responsibility of the war" It should be borne by the Chinese side! But no matter what the facts are, at 13:30 p.m. on February 21, 1940, China declared war on the Philippines. Almost at the same time, the Philippines declared war on China, and the Southeast Asian War officially broke out. In the following days, it expanded rapidly and developed into a world local war that swept across Southeast Asia!

The Chinese navy that participated in the first battle is subordinate to the South China Sea Fleet. It is the naval aviation that participates in the air confrontation and determines the outcome of the first war, the so-called shore-based aviation! The HNA force that participated in the air battle was the third flight group of HNA's second division, and during the economic crisis, the seventeenth son of the Li family of the whole world participated in the air duel.
