Chapter 525 Mysterious Nikayev
Tang Yu was afraid to hear the old man's words, and even bowed down slightly to show respect. The old man waved his hand and his sharp eyes with long eyebrows swept over Tang Yu like a blade, and said slowly, "Old man, I have always been direct! There is one saying, one, two, two! Don't be careless! You little guy really did a good job. That's why I praise you so much! Since you have done a good job, there is no need to be modest, young man! Naturally, there should be the vitality of young people. If they are all as depressed as us old guys, what kind of young people are they called?!"
Hearing the old man's words, the supreme leader, Mr. He and Mr. Zhao couldn't help smiling bitterly. This old man is also their comrade-in-arms, and even his status was not much worse than that of the top leader. At the most difficult time of the supreme leader, under the great pressure of the four people who set off a ten-year catastrophe, he insisted on meeting the founding father, giving the current supreme leader a chance to get out of the mountain. And when the top leader was hit, it was also him, constantly looking for ways to protect the top leader. Even when the top leader came out of the mountain for the last time and set the position of the first head of the country, he gave him great support! Not only the supreme leader, but also many founding fathers who were suppressed at that time accepted the old man's favor.
Therefore, the old man's status has always been higher than that of the average founding father. But this old man has one of the biggest shortcomings, or characteristics: he has always been straightforward! Whether it was facing the founding ancestor, or later facing the four special figures who had disturbed the mainland for ten years, the old man always said something. Even if he quarrels, he will not hesitate. For this reason, he has suffered losses and been punished, but there will always be some old comrades-in-arms to protect him in the open and secret. Even in the ten-year catastrophe that affected the whole country, he still quietly stood and never collapsed. Not only did he not suffer any substantial harm, but he even helped many old comrades-in-arms who were hit. This made the old man accumulate a lot of political contacts and a lot of favors, but the old man seemed to have no interest in politics at all. Most of his family members served in the army, and the top leader was able to determine the No. 1 position later, which was inseparable from the old man's full support.
Because of the strong support of the old man and the support of the top leader's comrades-in-arms and subordinates, he had the opportunity to take over the power of the No. 1 leader in the successor selected by the founding Taizu! Finally, the reform was carried out, and the country developed, and then everything happened later. After the supreme leader retired, in fact, the father also faded out of the military and political circles. I don't even pay much attention to things in my own faction. Most of the time, I either go to my home in the capital or go to the small yard of the top leader in the university. In order not to bother the country, he doesn't even go to Beidaihe. He stayed in his small yard all day long and asked his secretary and medical staff to read newspapers to him. This time, if it hadn't been for Tang Yu's news of buying the aircraft carrier, the old man would never have appeared in the small yard of the top leader.
This is an aircraft carrier! The old man was very excited when he just got the news. He couldn't forget that the American Reitae joined the battle when he resisted U.S. aggression and helped Korea. Later, the Reitai directly attacked Qingjin City and Xinyizhou City, and the fighters patrolled the area of the Yalu River to fight against the MiG-15 at that time! At that time, their main air strikes were mainly aimed at the supply line and barracks, which led to the difficulty of the volunteer army in transporting supplies and commanding operations! After that, the First Marine Division of the U.S. Marine Corps was surrounded by volunteers. Reita sent fighters to support for days and bombed more than 152 volunteer positions day and night! At that time, ground statistics said that at least 2,000 volunteers were killed in the airstrike, and their aerial observation believed that more than 8,000 volunteers were killed! This air attack finally caused the U.S. military to withdraw successfully on the 24th, leaving the regret, helplessness and anger of the volunteers!
Thinking of those heroic soldiers in those years, the aircraft carrier attack in the United States could only withstand the enemy's air attack in the afternoon, and the helpless old man was extremely eager to get these Soviet aircraft carriers! The national sea power without aircraft carriers is incomplete national sea power, especially when we have a long coastline, we urgently need our own aircraft carrier! The discussion on sea power has been asserted hundreds of years ago in the Ming Dynasty!
A passage from Zheng He, a French scholar who wrote in his book "Overseas Chinese" to persuade Ming Renzong Zhu Gaochi to keep the treasure fleet: "If you want the country to be rich and strong, you can't ignore the ocean. The sea of wealth, the danger also comes from the sea... Once the king of other countries seizes the South Ocean, China will be in danger. China's fleet is invincible. It can be used to expand business and subdue foreign countries, so that they dare not coveted Nanyang..." Although Zheng He's words are not many, the words are long and incisive! He linked the sea with the prosperity of the country, and the safety of the sea with the country, clearly revealed the close political, economic and military relationship between the sea and the country, and profoundly expounded the extreme importance of developing the naval fleet and controlling the ocean for national security and trade. This is a high-level summary of Zheng He's lifelong sailing experience and the crystallization of the sublimation of his marine thought. This passage has precious historical value and warning significance for the study of Zheng He's marine strategic thought.
Unfortunately, Zhu Zhanji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, finally abolished the maritime movement at that time. Even under the noise of the literary ministers, the marine movement was not started again. According to the Record of Shuyu Zhou Zhilu, Zheng He's file "Zheng He's Envoy to the Water" was originally left in the military department. During the Chenghua period of Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor issued an edict to the Ministry of War to investigate the old archives of Sanbao. Xiang Zhong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, sent officials to investigate for three days, but they could not find them. They had been hidden by Liu Daxia in advance. Xiang Zhong asked the officials, how could the archives in the library be lost? Liu Daxia, who was present at that time, said, "Three guarantees go to the West, cost hundreds of thousands of yuan, and tens of thousands of military and civilian deaths. What's the benefits of obtaining treasures?" Although the old file is there, it should also be destroyed. Why do you still ask?"
"Zheng He's Journey" should include a large number of original materials, such as the emperor's edict, the compilation of Zheng He's fleet, the list, logbook, accounts, etc. are all missing! Whether a large number of Zheng He files have been destroyed by Liu Daxia is still a mystery. But this undoubtedly hit the later navigation movement, so that China's navigation level has plummeted since then! Even in the later Qing Dynasty, the country was directly closed, and all this led to the decline of China's sea power. The hostility of the civil servants' group and the conflict with the eunuchs group has turned into a disaster affecting national security. This shows that the civil servants' group in that era was undoubtedly nailed to the ranks of eternal sinners!
And after eating a large number of losses from the ocean, the Chinese people finally woke up! It turns out that we need the ocean. Our ancestors said, "If you want a country to be rich and strong, you can't ignore the ocean. The sea of wealth, the danger also comes from the sea... Once the king of another country wins the South Sea, China will be in danger. How true is that?! Isn't Britain, the United States and other countries just relying on sharp ships to open up our citizens and force us to sign countless unequal treaties by selling "blessing ointment" to our people?! Unfortunately, although I understand the importance of the ocean, I can't develop our own marine cause. The country's industrial foundation restrictions, industrial level restrictions and many subsequent blockades have led to our inability to fully get out of our own sea power cause!
It was not until the fourth generation of the first leader of later generations that we finally built our first aircraft carrier on the basis of "Varyag"! But the helpless thing is that this aircraft carrier is just what we bought from others. We still have a long way to go to build our own aircraft carrier and form combat effectiveness. Compared with the United States, which can support a large number of wars with aircraft carriers, all-weather battles, and even directly determine the outcome of war with aircraft carriers, our aircraft carrier is still too immature. Even compared with Japan, our aircraft carrier technology is still far inferior! After all, Japan has had a complete aircraft carrier formation as early as World War II! We even had a face-to-face battle with the U.S. military, and we are still wandering at the door of the aircraft carrier until now.
Under such circumstances, it is very obvious what it means to get an aircraft carrier for the bigwigs in the capital now! This is also the reason why this old man, who has almost ignored the world, is eager to see Tang Yu. He wants to see what kind of person this senior high school student who can bring aircraft carriers to the country is! And when he saw Tang Yu, he saw that Nie Kayev looked at Tang Yu with asking for instructions from time to time. The old man knew that what Tang Yu said was not a lie. The old man also came into contact with the Soviets and even learned Russian during our honeymoon with the Soviet Union. From the deep-eyed old man's gestures and behavior, it was suddenly judged that Niekayev must be from a senior official family in the Soviet Union.
And he is also a soldier who has had war experience, so the old man believed Tang Yu's words. What's more, Nikayev helped the landing flight buy Mi-26, Mi-24 and other helicopters that we couldn't ask for in those years! And according to the descriptions of the soldiers and experts who participated in the transaction, Nekayev did have a very high position in the army! Many current Russian soldiers in the former Soviet Union will salute Niekayev from the bottom of their hearts when they see him, which is rare among a retired soldier! Some of the experts in the past were also proficient in Russian. Through their memories of Nikayev's conversation with those Russian soldiers, it can be judged that Nikayev has a very high prestige among them! Moreover, in the conversation between Niekayev and the soldiers, the experts also found that Niekayev's uncle may not be just a military commander! But all these things did not inform Tang Yu because of some factors and quietly concealed it.
So until now, Tang Yu doesn't know that in fact, this seemingly ordinary Russian veteran Nikayev has an extremely mysterious background! But now this secret can't be hidden, because the old man who knows the secret is going to tell Tang Yu the secret. Because Tang Yuyuan's old comrade-in-arms, Xiao Lao, didn't fulfill his dream until his death: to have our own aircraft carrier! Mr. Xiao is an old revolutionary and a founding father born in the class! He is also one of the founders of the mainland navy. This old man has devoted his whole life to the development of the navy! We have always dreamed of having our own aircraft carrier and making our own aircraft carrier! But the helplessness was limited to our conditions, and even until his death, we could not fulfill this dream. But Tang Yu, six years after Mr. Xiao's death, gave us the opportunity to have the first aircraft carrier. How can this old man not be moved?!
The old man looked at Tang Yu and said slowly, "Little guy! I know that Lao He and Lao Zhao have been taking care of you and giving you a lot of help! Now you can add one more person to take care of you. From today on, my old man will also join Lao He and Lao Zhao! If anyone dares to bully you in the future, talk to the old man directly! I have at least a handful of old bones. Even if I break this bone stick, I can get justice for you!" With that, the old man looked at the heads of the former general seng beside him, and rolled his eyes at the fathers! You old man, you mean we bullied this boy?! Tang Yu heard the old man's words and smiled and said modestly, but the old man didn't say anything to Tang Yu this time. It's a very direct way.
"This Niekayev is not simple! According to our information and survey results, this little guy probably concealed some of the facts from you. The army commander in his mouth is very likely to be the current deputy commander of a group of troops in the Leningrad Military Region in Russia: General Glasimov Valery Vassilyevich!" Hearing the old man's words, Tang Yu couldn't help but be surprised! Speaking of others, he may not know him, but this General Tang Yu knows too well! However, it was only in later life that he knew him, but he did not know him.
This General Grasimov Valery Vasilyevich will eventually be directly promoted to general! He was appointed as the commander of the Leningrad Military Region in December 2007. If Nikayev is the boss, it is not surprising that he can get the Mi-16 and Mi-24 helicopters so easily! He even said that it was easier to get an aircraft carrier and have Makakov, the director of the Nikolayev shipyard! This guy is really deep enough to hide. He has such a deep background. Even no one has noticed this relationship in the Xiangjiang River! This made Tang Yu sigh. Sure enough, it was hidden in the city. Although Nie Kayev may not know this sentence, he gave full play to this sentence to the fullest!
