Zhu Bin doesn't know yet, but because he is so capable, he is already on the blacklist of several big bosses in the government!

The people in power didn't want to fight this war at all, but he, Zhu Bin, repeatedly made great achievements in the limelight, instigating people all over the world to cheer and praise him. The government could not directly capture him as the hero, so it had to pinch him.

While acknowledging the compliment with a squinting nose, he was also trying to figure out how to get him away, even as a volunteer, so that he wouldn't cause any more trouble.

Coincidentally, the matter that Zhu Bin was struggling with made progress, and Commander-in-Chief Chiang's think tanks immediately came up with a plan. They simply drove Chen Shaokuan, who was also worried, abroad together, leaving the two of them tens of thousands of miles away from each other.

There is nothing you can do about it, and the reason is high-sounding - it involves two super battleships! The future of naval national defense, if you two are not directly related to it, who will go?

"This is really..." Zhu Bin smiled bitterly. This was shooting himself in the foot. He was just trying to seize time to spread out his stall and cause trouble, but he forgot that sometimes it was counterproductive. Since Minister Chen said so, he didn't

He has room for bargaining. Now he is an anti-Japanese hero, a hero in the military. It is his bounden duty to obey orders! It's too late to regret!

But in this case, he led the volunteer army to take advantage of this war to make a name for himself, and his plan to quickly upgrade and raise capital will probably come to nothing! It will take a few months to go to the United States at least. If the Americans delay it, little

It's possible for half a year. When he comes back, whether the Volunteer Army will be there or not is still a question!

However, it’s early March…it seems like there’s still some time!

Zhu Bin frowned and began to think deeply. Chen Shaokuan did not disturb him and drank coffee slowly alone. After a few minutes, Zhu Bin raised his head and looked at him calmly and said: "Okay, I will obey the order. However, I have a little

A small request.”

"Say." Chen Shaokuan cherished his words like gold.

"I predict that this battle will end hastily. Judging from the consistent attitude of the national government, compromise is the most likely. By then it will be a foregone conclusion that the 19th Route Army will be forced to evacuate Shanghai as the scapegoat. By then, our volunteer army will inevitably be disbanded. After all, it is a foregone conclusion.

Some of them are Shanghai citizens with families and families, so it is impossible to follow." Zhu Bin was embarrassed to say that this team had become a thorn in the side, and it would be strange to stay. "I only hope that when the time comes, if someone still wants to continue

If you join the army, the Admiralty will reach out to take them over."

"Is this..." Chen Shaokuan was also in trouble. Simply taking in a few hundred people was not a problem. The Navy Department was just an empty structure anyway, and the number of people was pitifully small. It was a good thing to have a group of elite soldiers under its command, but the problem was that the government

Are the people over there willing to agree? You must know that in the past year or so, the domestic bosses from all sides have done too much wrangling and wrangling over the issue of disarmament!

Zhu Bin spoke confidently: "Don't worry! This matter will never embarrass you! The Navy itself is too weak and needs to be strengthened; and frankly speaking, the government may not be happy to see our outstanding comrades join other teams.

, Commander-in-Chief Chiang is afraid that he will always need to listen to the naval force directly under the declaration, which is a good thing."

What he said was true, but Chen Shaokuan was aroused with anger in his heart. The navy was torn apart. As a Fujianese, he did not belong to the Fujian gang of the navy. He was not happy with both sides. Commander-in-Chief Chiang had long criticized this and had always suppressed the navy.

A large part of it is this. The navy is disobedient, cannot push the needle, sticks together to fight, cannot fight externally, has constant internal disputes, and is in a state of disunity! If possible, he himself wants to start a new business and build it from scratch! Commander-in-chief Chiang, of course,

Needless to say, Jiangyin Thunder and Lightning School is already being prepared. What is the purpose?

"Okay! I promise you!" Chen Shaokuan patted the table lightly and agreed decisively. He was very angry. If he doesn't even have this responsibility, is he worthy of his patriotism? What if he can't even protect such a patriotic young man?

, he would rather resign!

This is Zhu Bin's biggest concern. He worked so hard just to have a team of his own. Only with a team can he have the power and do more things. According to his understanding of Chen Shaokuan, once the official makes a promise, then

It will be fulfilled even if the sky falls.

It would be much easier to relax and talk about other things. Zhu Bin knew how to reciprocate the favor given by the Minister, and immediately proposed the two 10,000-ton ships he purchased through Shen Chang Yang Company, similar to the "Guanfu", and the subsequent

All the modification work of ten bulk carriers of 3,000 to 5,000 tons was entrusted to Jiangnan Shipyard, and the manufacturing of the first batch of 100 containers was also entrusted to them.

Chen Shaokuan was deeply grateful for this. As the Minister of the Navy, he concurrently served as the director of the largest and most senior Jiangnan Shipbuilding Institute in China, but he did not even take the 2 million yuan requested by the institute to build a new 20,000-ton shipyard.

If you don't come out, you can't even cover the basic expenses with such a large property, I feel ashamed of everyone's trust! Zhu Bin's order will at least allow the entire shipyard to make huge profits for two years. The people who benefited

Thousands of them!

Both sides got what they wanted, Chen Shaokuan left in a hurry, but Zhu Bin's face suddenly collapsed, and he frowned and thought about what to do. This plan became too fast, and he couldn't hold it very well!

Wang Pingnan listened to the conversation between the two people intermittently, especially the part about the future of the Volunteer Army, and felt very heavy. At first, he did not think much about what to do in the future. Like most people, he was passionate about resisting Japan.

, but he didn’t know that it would end up like this, or even get involved in the game between the 19th Route Army and the government bosses, and he would most likely be the victim. Thinking about it makes his head hurt! Forget it, he didn’t want to use this to deal with the conspiracy anyway.

Regarding fame, wealth and power, let’s take a step at a time!

In the next few days, Zhu Bin became more and more busy. Director Ma Deji, who was actually in charge of the Jiangnan Shipyard, rushed to Jiading the next day. He immediately got Zhu Bin's handwritten certificate and prepared to go to Shen Chang.

The general manager of Ma Yier, a foreign company, contacted me for fear that this big fat piece of meat would escape.

In 1918, Jiangnan Shipbuilding received a commission from the United States and assembled four 10,000-ton cargo ships within four years, breaking the record for the largest shipbuilding in the history of Chinese shipbuilding. But this record is actually not very glorious. Those four ships were built from raw materials.

All kinds of equipment were shipped from abroad, and key welding and other processes during manufacturing were performed by American workers. From beginning to end, the people in the shipyard only did the most unskilled patchwork work. Therefore, although four giant ships were launched, they

But I don't think it's that glorious.

Now Zhu Bin proposed to get two identical ships for them to completely disassemble and modify, which would give them the opportunity to practice on the familiar giant ship and make a lot of money at the same time. This kind of opportunity could not be found even with a lantern!

How could Director Ma not be proactive?

It is said that Mr. Zhu Bin, the hero of the Anti-Japanese War, originally intended to join the navy. This time, he was given as a meeting gift, and it was quite big!

On February 18, the Japanese army was finally ready for a new round of offensive. Commander Ueda Kenkichi confidently submitted a letter of condolence (i.e., an ultimatum) to the 19th Route Army, proposing that the defenders should attack at 7 a.m. on the 20th.

Before that, they made six unreasonable demands, including a 20-kilometer northward retreat from the Shanghai Concession Line. The Japanese consul in Shanghai also made the same request to the municipal government.

On the Chinese side, reinforcements from the 87th and 88th Divisions of the 5th Army and the Tax Police General Regiment came to Shanghai to fight to the end and never let the Japanese invaders succeed. Army Commander Zhang Zhizhong even issued a declaration, saying, "Everyone who governs China will fight to the end with us." Our officers and men share adversity, life and death. We deeply hope that all our officers and men will die to save the country and the nation. If even a single soldier of the Japanese army remains in our country, our responsibility has not been fulfilled; on the contrary, if we As long as there is one soldier left, we will fight the enemy to the end!"

The thick war was about to begin, but Zhu Bin could only stay in Jiading and watch the battlefield in the distance. That afternoon, he had a sore back and pain from drawing pictures. He felt more tired than a fifty-kilometer cross-country trip in full gear. He walked out of the office to get some air in the yard, and suddenly heard An air defense siren sounded, and two fighter jets were seen swinging in from the southwest!
